Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. My name is a dining martinez i work with the sfo under the delores communicated services fraudulent i find it fabulous that the proposed addendum was retransacted that was something really exciting a really big, big win for the San Francisco community so thank you for that. But while were all here we would like to emphasis the importance of not only Affordable Housing but keeping the protections in place for the currently existing residential hosts the sros there are so many sro residents who are currently facing fears of being evicted because of so many that are kind of turning into an up upgraded version of a dorm room it seems a lot of people are starting to get nos from their landlord how arithmetic will be coming in and how theyll be given Cash Incentives for people to leave their rooms to upgrade theyre Residential Hotels there are many cases in which the tenants dont know their rights and theyre forced to leave there are cases we see that the rent is being shot way up and the landlord claims that they have legal reason to do so they havent made any rent increases recently so it is very exciting that this addendum has been retransacted but since that has happened we need to create more victories for protecting single room occupancys in San Francisco and making the sanctuary city a more affordable place for the community to live thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi good afternoon.
