it's a great day for san francisco. i think often about the fact that one of the things that makes san francisco unique is that we can have a wonderful manufacturing company here making real products. tied to being the center of innovation. and they do it in a way that is very innovative. and here we are in a neighborhood that is a bustling neighborhood of technology and biotech with ucsf up the street. it's a pleasure to be a san franciscans in this day and age. in terms of our project, we are very excited about the fact that anchor represents the first major tenant and the kick-start to our mission rock project. to us it's the perfect partnership. we have been around a while, 1958. but that pales in comparison to anchor. 1896. as keith mentioned they are long-time partners with the giants back to candlestick park days. and anchor plaza was launched in 2010. and we won that year. and so we are going with a team that helps us win baseball games as well. this project is interesting in that it's about 20% of the total squ

beer here in san francisco. and it's my great honor to introduce entrepreneurial spirit. mr. gregor was born and raised in the united kingdom. he then moved to singapore at the age of nine. he's lived in amazing cities around the world. so he brings with him an international spirit. but also a passion for san francisco. he and his partner, tony foglio are known for building up the best brands and keeping them both emerging but honoring their roots. so i can't think of a better tenant and partner for this historic pier 48 than anchor brewers and distillers. join me in welcoming keith gregor.

i will never own property in san francisco but please don't tell me that i don't care about san francisco or that i don't have roots here. the condo conversion lottery was put in place for a reason. there's constant attack on rent control on many fronts. this is another battle. a few examples of how rent control housing is being lost, what about allowing academy of art to take over rent controlled buildings for student housing and the thousands of units that have been converted to short-term rentals which continue to occur despite current legislation to curb it. and i keep hearing tenants will get lifetime leases. today is the first time i heard that those lifetime leases would be rent controlled. but supervisor farrell did not explain why they would have extra protection, more protection than they have today. what protection does it given them against an other than move-in eviction and what about those who have been evicted when they were converted to t.i.c. in the first place. i've protested many times in front of those places where people were evicted just to form a t.i.c. there. no on

to what makes san francisco -- what makes people want to come to san francisco and live in this city. it is important to what we do and many of the businesses that exist here on an ongoing basis. we have 16 million visitors a year. that is in no small part due to the activities associated with the night life and this city. that is not lost on all of us. one of the things that i think it's important to the mayor and myself as i sit here today, and i know that you guys are going to be focusing on, i looked out and i see so many pieces of the city family here engaged in this conversation. i think it is really a measurable thing that you have the chief of police introducing today's conversation and today's forum with you in addition to having the board of supervisors as civil the understand the work that you and why it is so important. having individuals like -- one of the board members spoke earlier about having oewd focusing on this. all this matters when you're trying to work collaborative late. part of the problem in the past has been people working in individual silos and not sharing

francisco, where the puc lbe discount would affect the ranking of a san francisco lbe, that the puc lbe would not get that discount. so we felt that was a good way to sort of strike a policy balance of making sure that lbes in san francisco first get the benefit of this program, and that they would never be disadvantaged in potential future projects. so happy to answer any questions that you might have. thank you. is regina dick-endrizzi here? oh, chris schulman is here. >> very briefly on january 14th, 2013 the commission heard this ordinance and recommended approval by a 7-0 vote. while this ordinance primarily benefits small businesses outside of san francisco, the commission still weighed in strong support and the commission appreciates the protections put in place for san francisco lbes. the commission would like to thank supervisor chiu and the puc for working with the commission over the past month. as we heard this ordinance and made our recommendation. thank you. >> mr. chair, do you want to open this up to public comment? >> with that, i would like to open up public commen

they want to stay in san francisco. city hall talks a lot about keeping families in san francisco. but there's rarely legislation to do anything about that. this is legislation that will actually help families stay in san francisco. and i urge you to support it. thank you. >> chair wiener: thank you. next speaker. >> howdy. my name is ian -- of some disclosures. i own a two unit property in san francisco which is both my home and a rental property. a previous owner of the property i know created a covenant with san francisco which disallows division of the property into condominiums. the wiener-farrell proposal does not potentially benefit me. i regard the rent control ordinance as the cause of, although not the sole cause of, and not the antidote for high rental cost in san francisco. supervisors wiener and farrell, i'm supportive of your proposal to allow condominium conversions. it is refreshing for san francisco to offer a carrot to rental property owners, a mient group, providing an essential service which since the imposition of rent control in 1979 has no -- more the stick.

so to look at just san francisco as a whole won't tell the whole story. recently, we applied for bicycles plans with the transportation authority. those 3 projects alone show improvements including millions of dollars in our bicycle network. i understand we applied for another million dollars for our city. those put together total millions of dollars in improvements and alternative the maintenance mount is projecting that their 5 year bicycling plan will increase of about 1 hundred and 18 percent. as you noted we have drafted the bicycle strategy and we know the improvement that are required to make san francisco a major city for bicycling identified in this strategy. lately i annunciated in my city address along are supervisor chiu we'll put together a task force and we'll have a task force that will invite transportation people from our kind state holder groups and our technology group to the table to make important decisions on consensus building on all your challenges. this is an important charge that people will report back to me and the chair of the

i grew up in san francisco, there is different periods in san francisco violence hit different neighborhoods and i lived during that time. i just think this is a very as you say a very balanced approach to how we can do legislative and make the city safer for our residents. again, thank you very much. supervisor mark? >> thank you, i also want to thank chief and captain oh larry and this is nearly tailored and protecting public safety. i think this is important right now and recommend supervisor cohen for bringing this at this time. i do have a question about bullets, i will ask whether other types of hollow point bullets are appropriate and why we are limiting it to barbed hollow point because it seems that if there is no sporting purpose or other purposes for other types, i have a question of other types of bullets and their use. i will talk to you off line on that one. i commend supervisor cohen for this issue. >> thank you. why don't we open to any member of the public who would like to speak on this item. please come forward. robert green and don duetel. you have three minutes. >> good

i can only fix san francisco. san francisco is fixed. i can't fix cal doj. >> let me try to clarify and i will pass the mic. seems like our numbers for hispanic arrest numbers are low and not consistent with other counties and it's not just cal doj but how they're reporting san francisco numbers and it's not like every county has this problem and i think it will be remedied in the future and how the numbers compare and does it make sense with the other counties? >> do all of the counties collect the dat at same way as san francisco? >> my guess is no. >> if you're going to comparein and i know some other county doesn't collect it like this. i mean you have different processes. i am talking about county by county comparison. i'm know not dealing with the feds and if everyone was using the same process. >> it emseemed like there were differences between the county scption how they collect data and with local pressures or whatnot but the cal department of justice has the expect 19 ethnicities that they do collect and the same ones in the sh

are only 6% of san francisco's population. the statistic alone demonstrates that the criminal justice system disproportionately affects the african-american community in san francisco and we urge the police commission to give serious consideration to cjcj's report and be willing to work with them in the future. >> thank you very much. any further public comment? >> good evening commission and chief. i hope i'm not wearing out my welcome but to start i would like to thank you for the meeting last night. it was a good format and i think the open change was refreshing and productive and i look forward to the next one. one thing i would say i know we were all pleased to see you were going to incorporate some of the suggestions into the draft and if that is possible to have that by the next meeting that would be great and we could move forward and not have the same comments again and again. i think there were more comments about wanting more san francisco specific data in the presentation so i don't know if you're changing around t
