                                                             Chair Almanza            5 min
The Shelter Monitoring Committee acknowledges that we are on the unceded ancestral homeland of the Ramaytush Ohlone, who are the original inhabitants of the San Francisco Peninsula. As the Indigenous stewards of this land, and in accordance with their traditions, the Ramaytush Ohlone have never ceded, lost, nor forgotten their responsibilities as the caretakers of this place, as well as for all peoples who reside in their traditional territory. As guests, we recognize that we benefit from living and working on their traditional homeland. We wish to pay our respects by acknowledging the Ancestors, Elders, and Relatives of the Ramaytush Ohlone community and by affirming their sovereign rights as First Peoples.

Shelters who are preparing meals should use a menu format that includes the minimum portions. The RD is following up with shelters that have been added to the contract. All shelters and navigation centers that will be receiving MOWSF meals will have a new weekly menu posted that includes minimum portions as of July 1.  Moving forward, SMC Members should be able to reference if menu is posted and the current meal matches what is posted. The RD be doing quarterly site visits to ensure menu and portion compliance, so Members do not have to question specific portions. SMC should let the RD know if the menu is not posted or if meals served are not what is listed, so that she can provide technical support to provider. The RD suggests we add "Today's Breakfast" to the site visit checklist. 
Public Comment will be heard.
