Mr.

Clerk, we have Alex West off here from the planning department, but first we're going to hear from Graham Griffin with Supervisor Cheryl's office.

Thank you.

Good afternoon, Supervisors.

It's great to see you all.

I want to start by thanking Alex from the planning department for all of his diligent work on these landmarks.

I also want to thank Chair Melagar and her staff for their work bringing this to the committee today.

Supervisor Cheryl is excited to support support these landmark designations.

We're particularly pleased to see the Family Zoning Plan Landmark Program in action.

As you all know, this program is a preservation initiative that evaluates historic, cultural and architectural resources with a strong focus on underrepresented communities.

I want to highlight a few of these projects we're landmarking today.

There are three properties associated with African American history, the National Urban League Headquarter Headquarters, Hannibal Lodge number one, and the first AME Zion Church.

Supervisor Cheryl recently met with William Calhoun, a member of Hannibal Lodge number one, which is one of the oldest Freemason Lodgers in the Western Lodges in the Western United States, established in 1850 during the Gold Rush.

We're thrilled to recognize this important physical landmark and even more importantly, the organization it represents in District 2.

I

wanted to note that last week we had late notice from the Inverness Garage, which is item number 12, located at 1565 Bush Street, that they have decided to not go ahead with the landmark designation.
