Farewell Statement from Supervisor Willie B. Kennedy Supervisor Kennedy submitted the following departing statement: "It is with sadness and mixed emotions that I resign from the office of Supervisor of the City and County of San Francisco. Maybe I should say as President Richard Nixon said, that you won't have Willie Kennedy to kick around anymore. But I can say it with a smile on my face, for in fact despite the harsh criticism and racist messages and statements I received throughout my fifteen years I have enjoyed them all. I wish I could say that my career has been 100% successful, but I can't. However I can say and I believe that San Francisco is a better place to live because of the many changes I helped make and the people's lives I touched. Being a Supervisor is more than creating legislation. Although I did my share, it is interacting and helping the people you serve. There are a very few people that called my office with a problem that was not solved to their satisfaction. It has been a great pleasure serving the people. I really must thank Mr. Taylor and the clerks, especially the committee clerks, who work so hard to keep us in line. We depend on Mr. Taylor so much to keep us straight that he sometimes forgets who is boss. All of the City departments have been great, and Lord knows that I worried all of you enough. So thank you, Department of Social Services; Health; Department of Public Works; Purchasing; Public Utilities Commission; Parking and Traffic; City Attorney; Chief Administrative Officer; Police; Fire; Library; Controller; DeYoung Museum; Recreation and Park; Housing Authority and the Redevelopment Agency and of course the Mayors' Office. But you were always there, for you always came through with flying colors, for this I thank you. San Francisco is by far a better place to live because of your efforts. Surprisingly, I have been able to work successfully with four Mayors, Dianne Feinstein who gave me the opportunity to serve; Art Agnos, Frank Jordan and most importantly, Willie Brown. All of them contributed to my growth. Its so important that I thank the people of San Francisco for their faith and trust in me through three campaigns, and for allowing me to represent the City and County at the California State Association of Counties, the National Association of Counties and the National Forum of Black Public Administrators at their conferences and board meetings. This has made me a better and stronger public servant and the networking has proved invaluable. I will miss serving as director of the Golden Gate Bridge District, Association of Bay Area Government Board, Bay Conservation and Development Commission and of course the Transportation Authority. They have all been excellent tools of the trade. Through all of these organizations I have made many wonderful friends. Thanks to all of the businesses large and small, the corporations and individuals who were always there for me. All of you are a part of making San Francisco a better place to live and you made my job so much easier. You know it would be hard to run a campaign without some help, so my thanks to Jim Jefferson, my treasurer for fifteen years, to Barbara Jefimoff who did most of my campaign reports and for Welton Flynn for keeping me straight with Uncle Sam. And the three persons who ran my successful campaigns, Mary O'Shea 1984; Gail Kaufman 1988; and Jim Wunderman in 1992. Of course I could not leave without thanking all of my colleagues, and there were many; John Molinari, Quentin Kopp, Doris Ward, Nancy Walker, Carol Ruth Silver, Louise Renne, Harry Britt, Wendy Nelder, Richard Hongisto, Lee Dolson, Bill Maher, Jim Gonzalez, Terence Hallinan and Anne Marie Conroy, and all of you, the present Board of Supervisors. It has been a pleasure working with you, a lot different from the Board members I started with, but each of you represent the City and County in your own professional way. I'm leaving the Board in good hands. Last but certainly not least, my staff, my backbone. Of the fifteen years I served, I had only ten excellent dedicated members of my staff: Avonee Smith, Dawn Burgess, Gayle Armstrong, Mary Kelley, Darryl Cox, Minnie Loo, Richard Nichols, Sharon Treskennoff, Gaynell again, Rhonda Parker and Jackie Keys. They all contributed to the success of the office. How do you say thanks to a person who has been with you for almost ten years. Does it speak well for Gaynell or for me. I like to think a little of both. Thanks Gaynell for being a dedicated, capable, valuable and expert member of the team. I'm going to miss your telling me what to do, how to do it and then doing it yourself. Thanks for making me look good at all times. Good luck in your new job. And Jackie, I'm going to miss your capable dedicated service in the office these past sixteen months. Although your personality upsets some people, your skills out weighed it all. Thank you for helping to make the 'Stand for Children' trip to Washington, DC a success. Without your untiring help it could never have happened. Thanks to you and all the volunteers from numerous non-profit agencies there will be more than 100 people leaving for DC on Friday. Thanks Jackie. I'm leaving the Board of Supervisors to work as the administrator for the Transitional Development Corporation, so I won't be far away, and I will still be working to make San Francisco a better place to live. To those of you who say good riddance, that she didn't do anything anyway, I love you too." Presentation Made After each Supervisor was afforded an opportunity to extend their best wishes to Supervisor Kennedy, President Shelley, on behalf of the entire Board, presented Supervisor Kennedy with a resolution commending her for her years of service to the people of the City and County of San Francisco.

"Section 147(f)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 requires that, in order for interest evidenced and represented by the certificates to be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, an "applicable elected representative" of the host governmental unit must approve the certificates of participation financing. Such approval must follow a public hearing which has been preceded by reasonable public notice. "Since the facilities to be financed with the proceeds of the certificates are or will be located within the jurisdiction of the City and County of San Francisco, the Board of Supervisors of the City and County of San Francisco will conduct this public hearing as the host governmental unit. "This hearing is being conducted pursuant to a notice published on May 3, 1996 in the Independent, a newspaper of general circulation within the City and County of San Francisco. "The facilities to be financed are or will be located at 150 Oak Street, 129 Oak Street and 289 Fell Street, San Francisco, California. "The certificates will evidence and represent installment payments to be made by the Authority to the Corporation pursuant to an installment sale financing, and will be payable solely from amounts received from the Corporation pursuant to the terms and provisions of an installment sale agreement between the Corporation and the Authority. The Certificates and the installment sale financing will not be a general obligation of the City and County of San Francisco or the State of California, or a charge upon the full faith and credit or taxing power of either. "As announced in the published notice, we now offer this opportunity for all interested persons to speak or submit written comments concerning the proposed installment sale financing, the execution and delivery of the certificates and the nature or location of the facilities to be financed thereby." The President then inquired if there was anyone present who wished to address the Board. There being no response, the President declared the public hearing closed.
