Commissioner Antonini:
I think there was an excellent series in the Chronicle last week on homelessness and culminating with an editorial on their front page, which was extremely well written and just didn’t make criticism, but put forth some possible solutions. Some of the keys in their editorial, which made very good is, this a problem that is present in good times and bad times, it’s not related fully to increasing housing pricing and things like that and it is kind of a national disgrace because it is much more visible in a city like San Francisco, which is geographically small and population is relatively small. There may be homelessness problems in other cities, I am sure there are, but there not as visible or as intense as ours is, and they noted that we spend $241 million per year on the homelessness problem with 76 different agencies and 400 different contracts, so they point out the fact that there is a lot of overlap, there is no performance base on these contracts. They really think this has to be look at, and it has to be made for efficient, and they have to demand comprehensive care, rather than just fragmented care is the case, and they point to examples of Houston, Salt Lake City and New York City, which have had excellent tracking systems, particularly New York, which puts an emphasis on frequent users service enhancement, which is call FUSE and they deal with the chronically homelessness more directly and more targeted than we do, we kind of seem to handle all situations identically which is not too effective, and they point realistically, we're need a big bond issue of at least $200 million probably a lot more, and also work with other jurisdictions because it is not just a problem in San Francisco, it is a problem that is a national one, and we have to work with other counties in the area. In fact, you know at least 450 new homeless people who will soon become homeless come to San Francisco each year and we have to dispense any idea that this is as sanctuary for people who may want to come here, and not participate in programs or follow the laws. That was some really well written editorial and particularly the part about providing care comprehensive care, but having rules also. I would urge to read if it you can get. It is the Sunday, July 3rd San Francisco Chronicle.
Commissioner Richards:
Couple of comments I have piggybacking off of Commissioner Antonini's, all the items that were written on homelessness were a coordinated effort. I believe seventy news outlets across the entire city, so you couldn’t pick-up a publication and read something online without seeing about the subject matter. I think that is unprecedented, at least, for as long I've being living here for 25 years, to see something so coordinated, and I think a lot of the ideas and solutions that were put forward really have a lot validity to them and I hope that we and the Board of Supervisors and Mayor and everyone else involved can actually take look at it and actually determine how we can get some of that stuff implemented. Second comment, I was reading the New York Times on Friday July 1st.I came across an item, this is about capacity, “Taking it to the Street to Dodge Sidewalk Mobs” in New York. So, here we are in San Francisco talking about we don’t enough parks, we don’t have enough transportation, we have all this population coming, but we don’t have the infrastructure to support it, and here in New York City the population increased so much the sidewalks are not big enough to hold the number of people, especially in key areas and talks about people walking in the street, because they can’t walking on the sidewalk, that is something that really, really resonated with me, that there are limitations physical limitations to growth, this is one of them. Interesting enough item number 7, Vision Zero one of the items that we have in that general plan amendment talks about the width of the sidewalks need to be wide enough to handle the people and it all tied together for me, that infrastructure not just transportation, is sidewalks, and then in yesterday's Chronicle the City will buy a new park, a site for a new park, that will be coming at Minna and Natoma Streets, a half-acre, they will knock a building down for a park, which I believe part of Eastern Neighborhoods vision and plan is to create more parks, because that are of the City is an incredibly underserved by parks, the only kicker here is though, it won't be online for another 10 years, so we have all these population and no parks coming 15 years later, that is what I think some of the frustration we're seeing in the City is. We have all the population but the infrastructure really lags far behind it. Thanks.
C. DEPARTMENT MATTERS
4. Director’s Announcements
Director Rahaim:
Good afternoon, Commissioners, I want to take a moment to introduce you to the interns who many of whom are in the audience today. The internship summer program has begun, if I can ask you all to stand up for a minute of two. There so many this year, I won’t go through the list of names. We actually have 31 interns in the Department this year, we are blessed with a group of people from a broad variety of backgrounds and from all over the country. They all work full-time, except for a handful of high school interns who are part of that 31 students. We had over 500 applications for the program this year, some of the projects that they're working on include the Civic and Public Space Design work with the City Design Group, they are working on transportation planning. They're working on affordable housing studies. They’re working and sustainability issues and historic context statements. As part of program, it is a 12 week program every summer, each intern is paired with a planner who mentors them and supervises their work. There are weekly discussion site visits and special presentations run by members of staff to highlight the variety of work we do, obviously they also come to hear the Planning Commission and the Historic Preservation Commission and hear your part of the world and then the final week later in the summer they'll present their work product to staff during a series of lunch time presentations, which the Commission is certainly welcome to attend. We really appreciate all your work, and that you here and we really welcome you to the Department and to the Commission. And just lastly, I want to thank Tina Tam, who is also here today, who is the intern program supervisor, who organizes all the events and is really a great mentor to all of them, so thank you and welcome.
