This message is from outside the City email system. Do not open links or attachments from untrusted sources. San Francisco Historic Preservation Commission: Greetings Fellow Preservationists: It is extremely important to provide the public a proper introduction of the history of India Basin by using the SHIPWRIGHT’S COTTAGE, 900 Innes, as a Visitor Center with its Main Floor outfitted as a History Room with Photos and Diagrams telling the story of the wooden boat building industry and the importance of the scow schooner in the India Basin history. The use of a proposed cafe on the main floor is inappropriate! The proposed reconfiguring of the landscaping is also inappropriate for an historic cottage. Please use “common sense” in your deliberations. We do not have enough representation of San Francisco’s outstanding history in the India Basin Area.

AHIMSA PORTER SUMCHAI, M.D., NSCA-CPT · 236 West Portal Avenue, #563 San Francisca, CA 94127·1423 AhlmsePortarS11mc:[email protected] (415) 859·5471 Sunshine Ordinance Task Force Complaint File# 20011 Date filed: 01/23/20 Previous File# 19077 To: Sunshine Ordinance Task Force 1 Dr. Carlton B. GoodlettPlace, Room 244 San Francisco, CA 94102 Dear members of the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force, I am submitting a concise summary of the public meetings, open government law violations I am able to provide better documentation of at your request in the opinions rendered in File# 19077. In both files I identified Mayor London Breed and her appointed Hunters Point Shipyard Citizens Advisory Committee as having engaged in basic freedom of speech in public comment testimony and basic requirements for meeting quorum requirements in government sponsored hearings. I was not able to convince the SOTF that, like others who attended the 07/17/19 HPSCAC Environmental & Reuse sub-commitee hearing announcing the UCSF/UCB "Independent" Review Radiological Testing Hunters Point Shipyard, I felt was selectively noticed. I do want to revisit your opinion in deciding whether SOTF had jurisdiction to cite the absence of a quorum at the announced 6pm starting time of the meeting as a public meeting violation. I am providing supporting audiovisual documentation that at the time the meeting began the three member required quorum was not present and District 10 Supervisor Shamann Walton is seated in a place holder position for the absent member. This audiovisual stream is available on the HPSCAC live stream at https://sfocii.org/hunters-point-shipyard meetings.

Two Housing Campaigns by the Chinese Progressive Association
THE INTERACTION BETWEEN SERVICE AND ORGANIZING: TWO HOUSING CAMPAIGNS BY THE CHINESE PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION Kaori Tsukada Stanford University Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity Undergraduate Honors Thesis May 26th, 2009 i Abstract The Chinese Progressive Association is a 501(c)(3) grassroots organization in San Francisco Chinatown with thirty-seven years of organizing history. This paper focuses on two housing campaigns; the International Hotel Struggle was a ten-year collaborative effort between Bay Area grassroots organizations to prevent the demolition of a residential hotel in the 1970s, and the Housing Justice Campaign of 1997 sought to force the Department of Building Inspections to enforce housing codes. The paper will examine the differences between the organizational structures, organizing methods, and how service came to conflict with, rather than support, organizing. ii Acknowledgements There are so many people I need to thank for being part of this process, which I’ve heard others call a journey, a mountain to climb, or simply “really, you’re doing that?” It has been all these things. First of all, thanks to Professor Michael Rosenfeld for agreeing to be my advisor even when I didn’t know what I was doing, and continuing to do so when neither of us could really tell what I was trying to write. On the same note, thanks to Professor Rebecca Sandefur for taking me in when I so desperately wanted to be part of her research, and then agreeing again when I asked her to be my second reader. I also need to thank Rand Quinn, who offered continuous advice and direction throughout this process.
