Hi good afternoon supervisor and everybody im hopefully strong to support adu. Hi name nina a San Francisco residents that is one of the most refreshing proposals ive heard for a long time the city must be flexibility in order to increase the Housing Stock i stong support adu. I support the adu. Im tony with the disability action in as in all legislation really the the devil is in the details i said the intent behind the proposal seeing the city has lost Housing Stock that we need to preserve the shock we have and try to find creative ways to add to it my big concern about this it will be abused we know that the proliferation of shortterm rentals in north beach is facilitated us coming together to find ways to get housing so i think the ideas of prohibiting these units is being shortterm rentals you know as also prohibiting units that were made availability by the ellis act or no fault evictions we need regulate those so that type of abuse will not happen and the people that dont have the best interests of heart are not regarded rewarded thank you. Hello good afternoon my name is jean im owner i support the adu thank you.

Hi my name is sonya i cant today, im speaking on behalf of the 3 hundred san franciscans we unambiguously add to the housing adus and alexander to the stock of rent control housing no other way to do that if of every anyone wonder why the rent control exists look at the testimony earlier by the Tenants Union theyre not supporting in legislation which is also astonishing that is exactly the kind of position that forces me to starting my own organization that are thats not that point more rental unit im not sure im not worried about airbnb that basement and garage is definitely not on the market if you turn it into a how is it might be a house that might be an improvement thank you very much i look forward to this legislation. Good afternoon. My name is a frank i owner a piece of properties single house i support adu regulations theres the best way to create the roll call rental unit and help the owner to pay the higher property tax thank you very much. Hello good evening. Im ann congress im the owner now but i was a tenants for 10 years and then both real ill support the adu thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. My name is brussels im here to represent the Glen Park Association we came to a concession and have recommendations for improvements to the legislation from our precipitation we did sends a letter to supervisor wiener with copies to all the supervisors so you can account this entered into a record but id like to point out two of the suggests we made one is that you protect us from encroachment of the airbnb types of units in the audience side adus are going to be in the event and degeneration special, special status and special dispensation from being identified as adus we dont feel the airbnb category or i should says the airbnb use should be applied i want to make a point that the budget analyst policy analysis report executive summary on shortterm rentals didnt cover this wirmz hey, it is or not a problem secondarily we feel that in the interest of the Property Owners that if an adu is created that an adu can be removed without discretionary review by the Property Owner if a change in that Property Owners living situation were to arise and under any case we support the legislation we feel that the improvements weve suggested can be made into the legislation or in other ways but we feel those are important thank you very much. Thank you next speaker. Okay. Im supporting the adus and he see this very much as a situation we are in a state of trauma and emergency second thing has to be done i having also have great faith the assembled supervisors combined with the alertness of the people will create craft policy that will be good surgery we know that the possible surgery could be and were alert were able to avoid it by clapping the policy i know i can do i want to speak to the pointed i attended the Planning Commission meeting and the issue of retail disappearing was dismissed an amendment or discussion in the plan itself that is a nonissue as a parking it is a red herring that comes up in the neighborhoods that is particularly district 3 is the district with the lower people in the city where people understand the issues ftsd parking and crowding like myself have chosen not to have an automobile so people in the low income communities will have angle automobile and understand the problems again, this is a nonissue im very encouraged by the people speaking here and they understand it and the portions importance of it and unfortunately sflaenl disheartened with partisan efforts. Next speaker David Elliott louis a eliminator renter in the city very good reasons every square feet is not converted into housing not every square feet should be we need parking and Community Space and ground floor retail or above ground retail to lose all this and add more units of questionable Housing Quality and questionable habit ability with inadequate ventilation especially units in a were there boilers rooms it is good apartments watt windows and ventilation think about it no quality of life in those unions thats one concern i ask for a time for Community Input to measure the niece for parking protection Retail Business protection, and lets not award award at it stands the adu bill i cant support it thank you for your time and consideration. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon sigh vaughn im going to reiterate what a lot of people said there i agree in adu for pertains no facility eviction or but out and additionally no conversion of ground floor retail into residential units and no residents parking for the seary dwelling units and you all are going to be considering the transportation sustainable balding win legislation now or sometime in fall and i think that every new units of housing that we build in this city of if so a singlefamily home should be assessed a transportation fee all those the new units will cumulatively have an impact on the transportation she this be accessed a transportation fee i also want to express my concerns about the quality of whatever gets built you dont know i dont think they should be carefuly building micro units they should concur with the current codes about the time number of square feet thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon don im the chair the middle Polk Association in district 3. And if you would have asked me who days ago i would have said absolutely not but over the weekend i got several phone calls in the Polk Association has taken a position on this we didnt know much about that i think that people want to be heard on this and i respectfully request some additional outreach to neighbors that i think it would be my goal i dont have pie particular problem with the plan it seems like a lot of people have not heard about it thats the phone calls were indicating over the weekends thank you. Next speaker good afternoon im the policy director at chinatown new Development Center im here to present a letter on behalf of the fixed Housing Council organizations asian law caucus has the San Francisco tenant union as the you know we historically and particular the case law caucus has worked long and hard in support of adus your organization supports the Development Expansion of the alleged heirs in general were concerned about specifics with respect to to the legislation in particular the present legislations ill quote from the letter does no nothing to protect the residents spurred by the development of new units and explicit assure about the newly constructed housing will be not subject to rent control or being out out all the this is the kind of protection it was included previously when we worked together with supervisor chiu with respect to the inlaw unit legislation and we think that is particularly unfortunately that language was not carried over into this legislation the combats of expanding the addition unit can be a spur to speculation and ellis act evictions were concerned those conditions are not in place in the it to expand the roll call at least make sure it is included in the legislation i should say well also appreciate the tun or intent to have additional time to work with supervisors including this. Thank you have you spoken on this item. Youre not allowed to; right . You can only speak one time and i was going to talk about outreach. Im sorry youve already spoken. Im josephine im the president of the better housing policy. Org one thousand members were happy to here about the adu a couple of times at all Major Chinese the outreach and a quarterly of the membership for living in illegal adus wished it was up to code for safety we have Property Owners who may have stepped on the landline like the other speaker said who this secreting and privately rent out illegal unit and have to pay 20 or thirty or 40,000 for every unit that was close down wishing a pathway to reopen the space that otherwise with unused and they wish there is no punishment for doing so legislation was clear to fair to both sides and Property Owner can see benefit it is a law that is a realistic hash accomplishment 23407b will want to use it, it is not a fair law and it will be a lot sitting empty so im glad that legislation has support from both sides of legislation it is a fresh start it opens up new venues that Property Owners are in the punished for providing services and renters can live in a nice new living units and it is addressing the affordability issue please support the adu. Is there anyone from the public that wishes to speak on those two items all right. Thank you im going to close Public Comment at this time thank you to the opinion supervisor wiener. Thank you to all the members of the public that came out today, i want to for district 8 thing the Diamond Heights association and Glen Park Association for coming out and both organizations supported this legislation in addition to the castro upper market and enforcements from the castro portion was before the board last year before i get to the substance i know there were a number of comments about process i want to talk about process i have to say what we say today on on one hand that is sprilz given how thoroughly vetted this issue was for a year and a half it is not surprisingly i was disappeared when we went to the Planning Commission which by unanimous authentic vote supported the castro legislation the seismic legislation the commissioners couldnt say enough of positive comments about the legislation on thursday two of them residents of district 3 voted against the legislation ideal district 8 to spend other neighborhoods and largely dental district 3 legislation when the castro legislation and the seismic legislation could to the board of supervisors Land Use Commission last year and this year there was overwhelmingly support and very little opposition today we have a series of people from district 3 coming out and saying i kind of support it ill leave to supervisor christensen to talk about the outreach shes done what has changed between then unanimous support of the Planning Commission and big support at the Land Use Commission what changed we now have a supervisorial election in district 3 im elephant in the room i see the comments that were made i dont know who everyone is supporting in district 3 my own district to worry about but some people are supporting it just i dont want to say stripping nothing in politics surprises me we have a housing crisis in in this city the reason we have a housing crisis is that every time someone comes along with a proposal to try to at least take one modest step to create more hourpz more rent control there is every option around parking and Building Code around every considerable things and politics confuses ill say when i first starting work on the castro. Next speaker. Legislation last year one of the first things i did. I had any staff go and get a copy from the archives that the supervisor promote 10 years ago allowing in the inlaw units citywide that legislation to his credit supervisor president wesson kin unfortunately inadequacy not successful so we started at a smaller scale ride share was not successful that was our starting wanted in moving forward with the castro legislation that has now become district 8 legislation and district 3 legislation we need to focus on the actual policy of addressing the housing crisis in this city i know i to let supervisor christensen talk about here outreach her district this is good legislation and deserves to be supported i said to address a couple of specific concerns i respect shortterm rentals thats an issue that came up last time and we have restrictions on shortterm rentals and they apply to all housing whether a singlefamily home or an apartment or condo applies to all units it didnt make sense to say a certain category of hours is somehow doing going to be treated after those are built in 5 to 20 years none will know f it is under an ordinance but it will be treated district 5 and in addition one of the commentsers spoke about Building Codes we have to apply and in fact the department of building inspection output out an adu handbook to help people and names of Square Footage the minimum Square Footage those units have to ply with the same realize that every other units in the city has to ply with Square Footage and finally in terms of conversion of retail space and residential space that is governed by general rules that apply to neighborhood commercial districts throughout the city a process if someone wants to convert retail to residential it is not an easy process in my district at least cant think of a single for example in my times where a retail space has been converted to residential there are two reasons it is hard to do and a lot of opposition but in terms of Square Footage retail says that a lucrative and i dont see it as an issue i think if you wanted to look at that issue ill be modern happy to do that well be looking and are we looking at the issues but not an issue it is unique to the accessory dwelling units and im not concerned it is going to happen here with that im defer to supervisor christensen thank you yeah. Lets talk about outreach mr. Shulman i was at the polk meeting i have witnesses ms. Turner same thing for the lower pong that was what ms. Ab bet was trying to say she was there im disappeared to see politics in this but the idea of housing in district 3 is a conversation since ive been a supervisor the crisis is challenging to meet the crisis in district 3 weve been looking for ways to do that since the first day this is an ongoing conversation and a long list of people ive had the conversation i appreciate the comments i encourage the people reading the legislation is boring but that is a fairly short one and easy to read so some of the concerns that you have are probably addressed in the legislation itself but for those let me go over a few of the items people brought of liability concerns ill try to do this quickly rent control first of all i support rent control and anyone that told you different not 10th i think what is exciting is that this will add rent control units this will do that all the adu units will be rent controlled units concern about permanent affordability im semiathletic the real challenge in the city not only addressing e adding Housing Housing but true Affordable HousingAffordable Housing this is hard to do were largely doing it by government subsidized projects we cant build face enough on the other hand the adu legislation is a way to incentivize private property to add to the cities stock were trying to get people to help us out by building housing those are not Big Developers or Big Investments a lot of mom and pop Property Owners have the opportunity to add Housing Stock so in that particular plays i hes to where a that incentive by adding additional financial limits by making it less likely for people to burger to recoup the investment from the creation of housing one of the things were guilt at the board of supervisors were quality of it
