Thats not to say what this agency, dont take it personally, please. But i want yall to hear me. I wish i could get on my knees. I might have to do that when i go to sacramento and talk to governor brown. I even knew him before he became the governor. Or if i have to travel east to the lighthouse. We have trump come to fillmore street so he can tweet, tweet, tweet and connect with black folks. What do you got to lose . You know what i would tell him if he tweet, tweet, tweet on fillmore street, he would see that we lose what we lost now im not going to blame none of yall for what happened in the past and the creation of what would be called the Redevelopment Agency and we just had to strip his name from the city by the bay. So, im not going to get too passionate because i want yall to listen to me today. Because im recording it and im going to take it on up the way to sacramento. If i cant get no action there, maybe i turn republican and tell trump come on down to fillmore street because yall dont give a damn. Personally, you probably do individually, but collectively your actions speak louder than your words. Hmm. Im 63 years old. With gods blessing, im be 64 in a few days. I have been here longer than most of all yall except for commissioner singh. But the bottom line here, ladies and gentlemen, i got kids. And the kids have kids. And dog gone it, my grandson has four. So, that makes me a paw paw in my family structure. When i come here to city hall, yall try to treat me like im some kind of peon. Im beyond a peon. And im going to rise and shine. Black history month. I was out there in bayview yesterday. I didnt even see the supervisor for that district. She wunltz there. But london breed, the queen was there, because she is campaigning for the mayor. Im campaigning for my community. For the young millenniums, whatever colour they are. They need to know that these politicians were what i call politically speaking, its their vote that the board would be seeking. And well change things. It may take two or four years here in the city, but we gonna change things. I got three minutes. Im here in protest to tell yall if you dont have send out a delegate to the fillmore, youre in total violation because there is nothing out there that youve been fighting over these years, millions of dollars went down the drain. But yes, i had to have surgery on my brain. You know why . Because i had to go from this department, that department, this department, they all lied. But in the paper said there was a veiled effort. I have no more speakers, madame chair. Hearing no further requests to speak, i will close Public Comment. I will now turn to my fellow commissioners for comments and questions. On this item. Do we have a motion to approve the Consent Agenda . Move that. Moved by commissioner singh. Second by commissioner rosales. Madame secretary, state the roll call.

Madame director . Good afternoon to the chair commissioners. This item before you is a major milestone in the hunters Point Shipyard phase two and Candlestick Point project. The disposition and Development Agreement, but more specifically the final plan calls for the developer to request issuance of debt, securityized by property tax increment as well as special taxes for qualified cost, for reimbursement and this before you today is the second piece of it, which is the special tax where the developer has requested that we form a Community Facilities district to provide for revenue stream to reimburse the developer for qualified infrastructure cost and what is good about this programme, it allows for us to adaptation for c. S. Er and a revenue stream that is a special type beyond the 1 to also provide for o m costs of resources in perpetuity. This is just the first step in the process. There is more to come and with that, ill turn it over to the finance Deputy Director and finance of administration and shell be presenting on this item and i should note that shell introduce all the working groups thats participated in this process for the last several months. Good afternoon. Im the Deputy Director of finance and administration. As the executive director said, were here today to talk about the formation of a Community Facilities district in shipyard candle stick point. So, it has been quite a while since the agency last formed a Community Facilities district so i thought i would give you a brief reminder of what a Community Facilities district is. Wi refer to them as c. F. D. S, and theyre special districts that are formed over a geographically defined area to finance public improvements in services. As you know, we finance the majority of our project with Properties Tax increment. But having generating property tax implement requires having propertis that you can tax. At the shipyard, we arent at that stage yet. So, we need an engine to kickstart the growth that will allow us to build the infrastructure that will send a support to vertical development that will someday support property tax. This is a really important, earlystage financing vehicle that allows us to do this. Once we form the c. F. D. , we will levy a special tax in the areas that are identified as being within the c. F. D. Boundary and the amount of the tax and the method by which they levy it is documented in something called the rate and method of apportionment or r. M. A. And well discuss that later in the presentation. There are two kinds of taxes we can levy in a c. F. D. The facilities special tax is a tax levied either to reimburse the developer on a paygo basis or we can use that tax to issue bonds and reimburse the developer from bond proceeds. Also later in the projects life, we can directly fund certain infrastructure and facilities such as sea level adaptations as the project matures. The second type of tax is a special services tax. That tax is used to fund ongoing maintenance of our open space and cannot be used to support any bonding. And the special tax is levied consistent in the manner in the same manner as the property tax so that means the Property Owners would receive their tax bill sort of in the same timeline and same manner as property tax. So, just to give you a sort of visual representation of what the c. F. D. S tax looks like and how it fits in with the overall property tax stack in the city and county of San Francisco, as you know, property tax is a 1 tax and o. C. I. Received all of the property tax thats generated within our project areas. We keep 80 of that and 20 goes to the tax annuities which are state, local or regional agencies. Anything that we dont spend is then, again, distributed to the taxing entities. This special tax, the c. F. D. Tax would be levied in addition to the 1 property tax and it requires, as well talk about later, a special vote of the Property Owners who are within the c. F. D. As the executive director mentioned, all of this is being done pursuant to the disposition and Development Agreement that we signed in 2010. So, the formation process for safety is quite lengthy. Were here today just to take the first step, which is to approve a resolution of intention to improve the c. F. D. And to incur bonded indebtedness. There is a number of actions that will follow todays action and well talk about the schedule for that a little bit later in the presentation. So taking it from the sort of general overview of the c. F. D. To what we proposed to do in the shipyard cp2c. F. D. , the geographic boundary would cover all of candlestick major phase one and subphase cpo4. Today were talking about just improvement area one. So, the concept behind the c. F. D. Is that ultimately the c. F. D. S will cover ship two and Candlestick Point. But we plan to establish the taxation level only in the areas which are now about to be development. About to be developed. As we move closer and closer and we know more and more about the projects that from being developed in this Geographic Area further and further down the pipeline, we would annex those areas into this c. F. D. By creating additional improvement areas or having land owners opt in to join improvement area one. So, the improvement area one, ill show you a map covers four properties and then the future annexation is the remainder of the project area. We already talked a little bit about the rate method of apportionment. As i mentioned before, well be levying or proposing to levy both the facilities tax and the services tax. And all of this will be used to fund either public improvements or services that were authorized consistent with the d. D. A. And the financing plan. And our overall bonded endebtedness limit is 6 billion. So if you look at this map, you can see this is a map of Candlestick Point and there are four kind of lightly shaded grey buildings. Those are oh, my gosh. It is so tiny. 6a, 8a, 9a and 11a. And those will be our first four properties in improvement area one with other properties as they develop either creating a new improvement area or adding on to this existing improvement area. So, lets talk about the facility special tax. The facilities special tax is, again, tax that we can use to either reimburse the developer for infrastructure on a paygo basis or we can use the Pay Debt Service on [inaudible] bonds. The term of the tax will be not to exceed 75 years and we determined the amount of the tax or the levy based on some rules that were laid out in the financing plan. Which state that the Residential Tax is not to exceed 2 of the average estimated sales price. So taking into account that limitation, we then looked at the nonresidential property tax times and determined the levy in conjunction with the developer based on marketing and Affordable Housing objectives. And this tax has an escalator of 2 . Which means it rises at 2 to keep pace with inflation. The items that can be financed by this tax are listed in appendix a of the resolution of intention. And they reach back to the original documents of the project area, both the d. D. A. And the financing plan and you can see here that its a general list of public improvements that range from the water and sewer system to traffic and transit and parks and open space improvements. And that ultimately later in the project, we can fund shoreline improvements and Sea Level Rise adaptations. The Services Special tax is a tax that will be used to fund the ongoing maintenance of parks and open spaces. This is something that youre familiar with. Its something that we do both in mission bay and in ship one. The tax would be levied in perpetuity and, like the Facility Services tax, it varies by property type. According to the foundational documents, the Residential Tax cannot exceed. 1 of the estimated sales price and, again, we based our nonresidential levy on marketing and Affordable Housing objectives. You can see a complete list of all of the taxes by property type in table two. Of the document. The actual levy could vary and youly and meet the required maintenance amount. That is the amount required to maintain the parks and open space. And this tax has an case lay to that is either c. P. I. Of all consumers in the oaklandSan Francisco region and this escalator is intended to keep up with increasing costs of Park Maintenance due to inflation. Now well talk in more detail about the rate and method of apportionment. The rate and method of apportionment, as i said, delineates what the property tax amount is and for each different property type and dictates how the tax itself will be levied. So some highlights from the r. M. A. Are that the taxes will be levied on private development parcels. They will not be levied on agency Housing Units or public parcels and that is consistent with the agencys mandate to support and build Affordable Housing. And as a method of revenue projection, there is a waterfall against which the property tax is levied. So, we began by issuing the tax on projects where the Building Permit has been issued and we calculate the revenue that we generated off of that property tax type. And its the insufficient revenue to either meet the Debt Service Coverage required to pay existing bonds or to meet the operations and maintenance needs. We then go to the next property type in the waterfall, which is Building Permit not issued but an assignment assumption has been record. We keep moving down that line towards projects that are further and further away from development until weve met the amount required to meet our Debt Service Payments with the coverage required in the indenture or in the case of the services tax you are not required to maintain our parks and open space. So, that give us a pretty significant level of protection to ensure that we always have the revenue we need to meet our expenditures. And if there were a change in land use that were to change the amount of revenue generated by the c. F. D. , we would proportionately raise on all land use types the property tax in order to meet that required coverage or required maintenance amount. So theres two significant financial protections that ensure that well always have enough revenue to meet our expenditure. So, the c. F. D. Itself will be governed by the ocai commission as long as the Successor Agency continues to exist. And once we are finally dissolved, the c. F. D. Would be transferred to the city and county of San Francisco. The daytoday administration of the c. F. D. , which is essentially calculating and levying the taxes will be performed by an outside consultant, good Win Consulting and they are here today with us to answer any questions. So, we have two actions before you today. A resolution of intention to form c. F. D. And a resolution of intention to incur bonded indebtedness. The resolution of intention c. F. D. And identified an overall debt limit for the c. F. D. Which, again, is 6 billion. By resolution to incur bonded indebtedness also identifis a debt limit which is 6 billion and it identifies a term of that debt, which we know more than 40 years for each issuance. This is the first in a long series of steps that it will take to get us all the way to complete c. F. D. Formation and to begin levying the tax. The next public hearing will be on april 17. Well come back. Youll consider a number of additional resolutions. And well hold an election at that time. And then introduce an ordinance that would order a levy of special taxes. Ok. So, for the team. GoodWin Consulting is hear. Is here. There is a c. F. D. Administrator. We have joey hall who can you ask them to stand and wave so we know who they are. Yeah. [laughter] wave and stand. Thats great. Yeah. GoodWin Consulting. We have jones hall here who is our bond council and Formation Council and we have Public Financial Management who is here as our Financial Adviser and, of course, we have representatives from fivepoint, our Development Partner in the room as well. Welcome. Thank you for being here. So, we are happy to answer any questions. Do we have any speaker cards . We do. One. Ace washington. The speaker cards on items 5a and im on that item, commissioner. Trust me. But im very surprised, shocked, appalled over whatever phrase i can use other than here we go again. Here we go again. It gives me great honour to say i have a lot of work lined up for me and a lot of work lined up for the younger generation. Im an old man now. Im an expert. I aint new to this. Im true to this. So i know i aint got that many days on earth. Im 65 64, 65 years old and you know a lot of people thats been up there that passed away. And by the way, what they say, ed lee may he rest in peace. But im still here talking about the fillmore street. Southeast. I cant wait to sit down to talk to coe fi because back then in the days it was the night changes to 5 00 with flags flying, whatever. As i sit down and let him do his thing for a while. Its time. Yall finished out a whole new thing, new money. But you still got your own problems. I was just out there at byview yesterday and witnessed something that meant so much to me and im staying on the thing here. I dont support it, but im going to be on top of it. Im going to find out all the principles. They probably know who i am. Im dealing on one issue and everything you guys, city hall is full of it. Once you catch up with them, they change the game plan. But im used to that. You know . Im used to the game play that city hall play. Ed lee aint rested over two months yet and now we have mark as the mayor for a few more months and then we have elections for another two yearses and then see, this thing is continuous, mr. New lawyer. Welcome to city hall. Im trying to tell yall, i done seen it all. But the deal of it is i cant do it all. Yall know that. Im actually going to send me some young [inaudible] and because of the shooting that happened across the country, the youngsters are starting to stand up now. See, i got kids and they got kids and they got kids so i know how to deal with people like me from the old tree. Baby boomers. Yeah, im the baby boomer. And my kids had kids and then my kids had kids. And im still doing the same damn thing. Im surprised nobody pushed the panic button to have the sheriff come up here. But right now im totally dismayed that a c. F. D. But you are going to do it without me. And in the southeast, thats part of my territory. Im just trying to conquer the fillmore because we cant fill it no more. And all i got to say out there, when i say that the play yesterday, [inaudible] street dont yall repeat with it done to the fillmore street. Madame chair, well have no more speaker cards. We dont have anymore speaker card, im going to close Public Comment. So, i will now turn to my Commission Members for comments and questions. We have two items that were going to vote separately. So, are there any questions . Commissioner singh . I think he is motioning to you. How much have we used so far of 6 billion . No bonds have yet been issued. Uhhuh. Ok. Thank you. Thank you, commissioner singh. Any comments . Yes, commissioner rosales. Thank you for the presentation because this is the first time ive actually understood how a c. F. D. Is formed. For Property Owners that were talking about. So, the Property Owners are those who let me slip to the slide for you. The purposes of this, it is fivepoint developer. Right. Severely impacted property owner. Correct. At this point. Correct. Im sorry. [inaudible]. Ok. So, then slide nine when we talk about residential and nonresidential uses, that was the first thing that pops up as a resident do the residents know that these taxs are coming . So, these taxes are all the concept of the c. F. D. Was, you know, baked into the financing plan, was baked into the d. D. A. And its a typical tool to ewe. In the city, we used it at mission bay. At this point, most of the land out there remains to be developed so we dont have any actual Property Owners yet. But it is a required disclosure. So that we dont run into any issues, i know this is not jermaine to this issue, but as a cautionary tale, we would want Property Owners to understand through proper written disclosures in big print in as many languages as possible. Because i would not want someone to come in and say i didnt read the fine prints and nobody pulled it out and somebody told me this and here i bought this thing and now im i thought i was going to get a semimarket rate affordable unit. And theres taxes upon taxes. So, we are not levying taxes on the Affordable Housing unit. My word affordable is not Affordable Housing. It is like being able to live affordably in San Francisco. I wasnt aware that this was an option. [laughter] so we want to keep it as an option is basically my point. Indeed. Thank you. Commissioner busta . When we talk about the shoreline improvement, Sea Level Rise, how long is this going to buy us . In terms of how long do we anticipate that we can continue to adapt consistent with Sea Level Rise . So, the Sea Level Rise that were looking at is projected to happen in decades in the future. So, a lot of the development being done at the shipyard now already takes into account a certain amount of Sea Level Rise. So, any adaptations that would be funded by this Funding Source would be to combat Sea Level Rise that is if excess of what is now projected. So, it is kind of like our it is like our backstop. Should the worst Case Scenario happen. Should the projected scenario happen, were already building towards a current property, Current Development plans already are consistent with current projections. But because Sea Level Rises are very large knownunknown, were trying to plan for that unknown. The more you can plan ahead, the better. As weve seen around the world, you know, although we may have a president that doesnt understand climate change, we do have smart people in other parts of the world who do. And i think we need to really study that and make sure that we overplan that overplan. So that, you know, people are aware and we made some provisions within the financing of that. Because it is no joke. It will continue to happen. We still have the rest of the city to think about as the water rises. Thank you. I have a question. It says c. F. D. May levy a special tax. We did not levy a tax . The purpose of forming the c. F. D. Is to levy a tax. I think the amount of the tax can vary from yeartoyear, depending on the financial needs of the c. F. D. You try to maintain a consistent level, but i think the word may gives us flexibility for what may have the life of the c. F. D. Is 75 years. So, thats a very long time and a lot of things could change between now and then. The word may gives us the flexibility to not levy a tax in the future if has there ever been a time we did not levy . Oh, i see i think susan could potentially speak to that. That is good to know. Hi. Susan goodwin of goodWin Consulting group. Its very rare, i would say that, that we form a c. F. D. And go through all of this and not levy a tax. A couple of instances where that occurred was c. F. D. Number four in mission bay where there was an offset of tax increment and never had to levy the [inaudible] tax. That was a yaw naoek one. In cases of Hunters Point phase one, there were a couple of years we didnt levy the services tax because the open space wasnt there to be maintained yet. Others than that, you can pretty much count on the tax being levied. Ok. That is good information. Thank you. Youre welcome. Any other questions . Commentses . Ok. So thank you, brie. Great presentation. Very educational. At least to me. We will take a vote for each item. Agenda item 5b . So moved. Commissioner busta, seconded by commissioner rosales. Please call the roll call. Commission members, please call your vote when i call your name. [roll call] madame chair, four ayes. Motion carried. So, no well go to item 5c. Madame secretary . Commission members, please announce your vote when i call your name. [roll call] madame chair for item 5c, the vote four ayes. Thank you. Motion carries. So thank you, everyone, for being here and being available for questions. So, now we move on to the next item, madame secretary. The next order of business is item 5d, authorizing an exclusive negotiation agreements in a predevelopment Loan Agreement in an amount not to exceed 5 million, mission bay 9l. P. , a California Limited Partnership for the development of approximately 141 affordable rental Housing Units, including one managers unit, with Supportive Services for formerly homeless persons at Mission Bay South block nine, providing notice that this approval is within the scope of the Mission Bay Redevelopment project approved under the mission bay final subsequent Environmental Impact report, fseir, a programme e. I. R. , and adopting Environmental Review findings purchase saounls to the California Environmental quality act, Mission Bay South redevelopment promise area. Discussion and action. Resolution number 32018. Madame director . Thank you, madame secretary. For the chair, this item youve seen various verptions versions of this over the year. And for the release of the a. I. C. And then in the fall of last year you also selected the developer and its a partnership between [inaudible], Housing Corporation and Community Housing partnership. And today what you have before you is the approval of the exclusive negotiations agreement as well as the predevelopment loan in connection with the block Nine Development within the Mission Bay South area. And again, this will be 141 units. Many individuals were excited and looking fortoward to completing this milestone and taking this through the next various stems. For now, were asking that you approve these two agreements. We have Development Partners here as well in the audience and ill turn it over to kimberly, a Development Specialist, to present on this item. Thank you, director. Good afternoon, commissioners. Im kim obsfeld, a Development Specialist with the ociis housing team. As she said, im here this afternoon to present on item 5d, authorizing an exclusive negotiations agreement and a predevelopment Loan Agreement with mission bay 9, l. P. , a partnership formed by bridge, housing and Community Housing partnership or c. H. P. For the development of 141 affordable ren dal units with Supportive Services for formerly homeless pentser on Mission Bay Block 9. Your approval today will allow ocii to proceed with this important project. Mission bay south block . Ien add jay stoenl the Public Safety building. Block nine will be cut into two. Were working now just on block nine, which is the western portion of the site and will develop block 9a in the future as a separate Affordable Housing project. The. The developers of block nine will construct and design the extension of bridgeview way. Block nine is wellserved by transit, including the muni metro line along 3rd street as well as the 55 bus and is within walking distances to many area amenities, including grocery stores, pharmacy, Public Library and parks and open spaces. Just a brief bit of background before i go into detail regarding the agreements. In 1998, the Redevelopment Agency allowed for o. P. A. S and the development of up to 6514 residential units in mission bay with nearly 30 of that total set aside as Affordable Housing. In Mission Bay South, 350s affordable units have been constructed so far and another 868 are in various stage of planning our construction. The o. P. A. Requires that the master developer submit Development Plans in major phases. The master dwoerp include block nine in it 20s 04 major phase approval request for blocks 8, 9, 9a, 10, 10a and parks p18, p19, and p20. At that time the block nine parcel was confirmed as an Affordable Housing site. And then just a bit of background on the activities leading up to the request for you today. In april 2017, occi staff released a r. F. P. , seeking a team to develop, own and operate housing on block nine. In june 2017, we issued an addendum to the r. F. P. , asking Development Teams to provide information on conventional and Modular Construction scenarios this. Request is based on discussion with the Mayors Office about how city agencies can complete housing for homeless persons as efficiently as possible. An Evaluation Panel review response to the r. F. P. And in 2017, it was recommended to the Mission Bay Citizens Advisory Committee and in october of 2017, selection of the bridge c. P. H. Development team was approved by the ocii commission. In addition to bridge and c. H. Perform, it includes health rate 360 as a partner in providing Health Services and Monica Wilson and leblancka associates as workforce consultants. The Development Programme for block nine includes 141 total units, 140 are affordial, furnished studio units and one is managers units. It will be housing formerly homeless adults referred to from the coordinated entry system. The building amenities include a large groundlevel courtyards, amenity rooms, bicycle parking and bike repair station. The design responds well to site conditions and seeks to maximize Natural Light in units throughout site. The exclusive agreement before you today commits ocii to working diligent with the Development Team. The agreement is go for an initial 24months term. The e. N. A. Establishes milestones that the developer must meet including the timely submittal of designs, cost immaterial estimates and financing plans along with the execution of a ground lease. The predevelopment loan is in an amount not to exceed 5 million. This loan will eventually be rolled into a permanent loan from ocii when the developers close on construction financing. The loan will fund site studies, design and engineering work, pay legal and financing fees and compensate developers for their time. In addition, this loan will fund upfront costs specific to the modular unit construction. These include can prototype and materials deposits. As a condition of this loan, these particular activities will not be [inaudible] of the schematic design. The predevelopment loan was operated by the Housing Committee in january. And the conditions are specific to Modular Construction in collaboration with the department of homelessness and Supportive Housing. These conditions require the developer to pursue and seek to maximize other potential Funding Sources to minimize ociis gap loan contribution. In addition, the conditions require ongoing outreach to the Mission Bay Community. The developers have begun to work with our Compliance Team to address ocii goals and will issue a request for qualification or r. F. Q. This week. Throughout the predevelopment period, the developmenters are committed to working to meet Small Business enterprise goals. Weve heard many questions and concerns from the community about this project, ocii has made presentations at several Mission Bay Citizens Advisory Committees and we attend an evening meeting organized by the Community Last may and organized several tours of similar housing projects completed by the Redevelopment Agency and o country, i. Engaging with the community will continue to be a high priority as we move forward. C. H. P. And bridge will begin reaching out to the neighbourhood and Greater Community within the next few weeks. They anticipate Holding Meetings with groups of neighbours and homeowners associations to discuss the project, address concerns and work through any issues. Yaims tracy at c. H. P. Will lead the Community Outreach and be the primary contact for those who would like more information. With jober approval today t team will proceed with will proceed with design, programme and Services Planning and financial modeling. We anticipate returning to you in the fuel request schematic decynthia approval and 2019 for approval of gap loan and ground lease in anticipation of a construction start in early 2020. That concludes my presentation. Id like to introduce a few members of the Development Team in the audience. From bridge housing, we have smitha chaudhry and from c. H. P. We have gail gilman, daniel poter and serena calloway. Thank you all for being here. With that, were happy to hear comments and take any questions you may have. Before we take any questions, do we have any speaker cards . Yes, madame chair. We have gail gilman. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is gail gilman, im the c. E. O. Of Community Housing partnership and i just wanted to come up to express how excited we are to get through this hurdle today so we can begin working collaborate ratively with the community, with the commission and with staff at ocii to bring this project to fruition. We developed for the Commission Two other parcels that are under your jurisdiction. We did richardson apartments in hayes valley that opened back in 2012 and we also did apartments in transbay, another site overseen by this commission. Were your largest provider of permanent housing in San Francisco both as operator and owner and we have enjoyed working with the commission and ocii staff. Were excited to begin engagement with the Mission Bay Community and we look forward to seeing this project move forward. Im available if you have any questions. Thank you. Smitha chaudhry. Good afternoon. Im from bridge housing. I just want to thank you for taking time today to hear about our project. We were here last fall, as kim mentioned, and we were really excited to be selected once again with c. H. P. To work on this really important project in the city. The prove you promise we did with the transbay is [inaudible] and it has been up and running for five years now and excited to bringing a similar promise here in San Francisco. The mission bay was almost a decade ago. We built market walk. So, again, were excited to be give then opportunity and i just wanted to thank you. Thank you. Peter cohen. Good afternoon, commissioners. Peter cohen with the council of Community Housing organizes. Weve appeared before you through the block nine process and here again to just tell you how much we support the project and glad that today we can speak actually explicitly about Community Housing partnership with one of our member organisations. Until then, you had to select them. But proud to see that they are part of the Development Team. They do excellent work. And the Supportive Housing model, again, this is ladders out of homelessness. This is how we one of the ways we combat homelessness is to provide homes and this is going to be an excellent project. And also know there has been over time, although it seems to be a settled some concerns and questions about the project. And you have a topnotch outreach staff with c. H. P. They know how to win over hearts and minds and that is what every one of our members Affordable Housing projects attempts to do. Its just not just bricks and mortar, but also changing the perceptions and the experiences of people who live with the end project. And that is exactly what we should expect for the block nine project and i think they have an Excellent Team and i think were going to see netnet as a project like the go forward more and more folks in San Francisco and more places getting comfortable with the idea of there are all kinds of folks who make up San Francisco and they will be living next door or down the street or in other neighbourhoods and it is all good. Thank you for selecting c. H. P. And all speed ahead. Thank you. Thank you. Ace washington. I hate to be the lone one to get up here and say things to the contrary that these people get up here to say. They got money. These people who got up here to say they got resources. These people got up here to say i made contracts with yall without participation from the community. You can say what they want to say. They can say what they want to say. But when i put out my dossier, and when i come out with my memos, they gonna be the most sought out memos they gonna know. The bridge, talking about the helping homeless. Not only i could bear witness, i am a black man, senior citizen. Come out the damn hospital. And people coming to me, city hall, ace, we got you a house out there at bridge, out there at bayview. It happens to me already, but when they found out the recipient who was going to be moving out there, oh, no they say oh, ace, you were the homeless. You didnt play at the other place there. Listen. We came from surgery. Well work that out. You know, i went through the appeal system with mercy, not mercy, bridge. They still denied me so how in the hell you can say they gonna help the homeless. I was the homeless s i was a medical person that was got surgery. I was a senior. I was a black man. But i happened to be ace. And they erased me from the case. So, i was waiting patiently. I told my worker dont worry about it. Because they gonna come back around and here they are. Here everybody is coming back around. And im well. Got has blessed me to live with whatever else is my life. And ill be damned if im going to stand by and let yall, and them, collaborate and say you ear gonna help out the homeless people. Im here to testify they lie. Until they come and see me and toque me about some issues how they gonna bring in and then they talk about how they have another property in hayes valley. None of us work there nobody i went to the place, they told me were protected by city hall. Go talk to city bill. I dont have the staff nor the energy to stop the jobs thats been in the fillmore where we couldnt work at, yall. Yall are supposed to be monitoring and now youre offering to give millions of dollars to these rogue nonprofits because there is no black nonprofitsments there is no black developers. By the way, the mission bay, yall heard what i said months and years ago. Until yall put in there a statue of Jim Jefferson to recognize that there was a black man that created, that was one of the consultants back with telus before all yall was here. Until then, recognizing until that man is recognized. Im going to be coming up here and telling yall mission bay, you need hero. We got to say. Hunters point and all the rest. I gotta go. I dont have time to be [inaudible]. We have no more speaker cards, madame chair. I will now close Public Comment and refer to my fellow commissioners for questions or commentss . Yes, commissioner singh . 141 units and do we have any list where they are going to be . We dont so at this property, it will be a little bit different than the rest of our propertis so we wont go through our typical marketing plan. Instead, residents here will be referred directly to the property through the department of homelessness and Supportive Housing and they maintain and have been building over the last couple of years what is called the coordinated entry system and essentially it was a big move to take what were separate databases living all over the city and individual wait lists at many, Many Properties and consolidates all of that information into one system. So that they can rank and sort folks who are dependent on services, who have been in and out of the shelter system. Figure out who is a good fit for this housing and refer them directly to the property. They will be able to accommodate kaord nating with most c. D. S through the coordinated entry system to make sure any c. O. P. Holders living within that coordinated entry system do have priority. Otherwise we wouldnt market this property the way we typically would
