Actually a necessary one. I am here speaking on behalf of 5,000 of our members. 1462 who happen to lead live in the excelsior district thats see the crisis every day, but nothing is being built. Not with any former supervisors that have been in the district. As a gentleman that spoke before me said so eloquently, nothing has happened in the district it has been forgotten to be able to have anything built there. No project is perfect. I am here asking you to please support the project of 65 ocean. Not only will allow workers to have wages that are done with dignity and you can provide for your families but the ugliness comes out of nativism for people coming from tracy. These are families that were mowed out to tracy, moved out to stockton, moved out of San Francisco because of affordability. The task you have and what you will be remembered on as commissioners is being able to have these projects go up so that families can remain and San Francisco. Again we are here in support of this project. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. I just want to share my experience growing up in i grew up in the Mission District, but because of gentrification and i have been forced out of the city that has raised me and to be honest i am very exhausted and im moving further and further away from my community. The same community that continues to be under attack by violent displacement projects like 65 ocean. Im here demanding that you did 65 ocean so no more of the working class families dont go through what i have been through where continues the cycle of displacement. This Housing Development does not reflect the needs and capacity of these families. Nine out of 193 units are family sized. I demand a stop to 65 ocean. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello. I am theodore randolph. I grew up in the excelsior crowded housing. I disagree with this eir appeal on almost every point. I still live in the excelsior. I bike on ocean avenue, i am still supportive of this project. Acting like theres a recklessly large amounts of market rate housing i think a thousand units is too few. I feel that my experience growing up and crowded housing was because there was not enough housing in the excelsior. They act like this would bring gentrification here. The gentrification is already here. The existing homes are selling for close to 2 million now. These are the people that are here now today. We need to build more market rate housing to reduce the gentrification pressures on the existing housing. They act like this is only working class family neighborhood. Now im living with roommates in a singlefamily house all of us roommates because there is not enough singlefamily here either. That house could have been for a family, but we had to have a place to live where displacing a family by all of us living in the house. Emphasizing family only, that is continuing long term, decades of unjust discrimination against single workers. I noticed that many were key class people of color are supporting this project. The argument that they dont is wrong. I think this is also, the argument that this is against the neighborhood plan. No. This property was exclusively not part of the plan area. We need to move faster. And approve this project. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. I am a mother of two children and i joined this because my landlord was harassing me. I live on ocean avenue, and i can see first that theyre going to be 121 parking spaces. I saw two accidents. My and i saw two people dying on ocean avenue. Bringing all this parking space is outrageous. Another thing is, a low percentage is going to be for families. These people, its just doing one bedroom luxury, kind of condos. Families, you know, i start living in ocean, 16 years ago with my husband. Fortunately, my husband for immigration reasons how to leave the country. Right now, i can see is like you do one bedroom, and then you dont have kids, you move out of town to start a family. That is not my case, i am raising my kids in my small apartment with one bedroom. Thinking of families is like if youre going to have two kids and i have a boy and a girl, you need at least three bedrooms to live like this. Also, the rent control, thank god for rent control im still able to support my family and my children. I live a couple of blocks from city college. Please try to increase the percentage of Affordable Housing for true really families. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. My name is alex. I stay at 491 31st avenue. There was a time when those buildings, and their program was fixed. [inaudible] you had a chance to get section eight. I wanted to get this chance, and many years, maybe five years i look. [inaudible] at the beginning of this month, i visit the authority. [inaudible] i was working in the United States 16 years. Last year i get heart attack. I need someone that can help me. And i have the chance. Do me a favor. Once again my name is alex. I appreciate. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. [inaudible] this is a luxury program. [inaudible] thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. I am a Community Organizer and i live and work in the excelsior district. I actually live a few blocks away from 65 mention and that is why i am here today. I know the majority of the residents are working families. The project that has been proposed at 65, the majority are studios and one bedroom units. This project does not meet the needs of my community, the community i love. This project is only proposing nine units that are accessible to families. This is not enough. It is your duty and our responsibility to do the right thing. Allowing the construction of 65 ocean would only displace my familys. The families that i know in my neighborhood that i can go buy every day and say hello. We know each other. We like to live in our community. Yes, lets keep jobs for our brothers and sisters that are here today. Lets keep the jobs even for them to live in those units. Housing that is going to be 100 affordable so they can do their job that actually get to live in the city. I am here and strong opposition to 65 ocean. I ask you to please deny the permit. We need a project that is 100 affordable to the people that live, work, play, and pray in my community. I ask you to please do the right thing by denying the permit. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello, commissioners. My name is james i work for Housing Rights Committee of San Francisco. We are a Tenant Rights Organization that works citywide. Im here to advocate an urge that we have seen how luxury Rate Development squeezes the most vulnerable tenants in our communities. Based off the housing balance report, district 11 has lost 398 rent units in the past ten years. Those are rentcontrolled units which are affordable units that usually are in the hands of low income, workingclass, low term residents are lost because of speculation pressure. When you build luxury Rate Development and do not ensure its 100 affordable. You are not just creating a space that is only for the high and come in our communities, but youre also creating pressure that will push out that is something that is important to acknowledge. If you are going to offer this permit, what youre actually doing to this neighborhood. Who are you saying is allowed to live there . Who will be faced with further harassment . [inaudible] how are people supposed to live in that type of environment . I urge you to deny the permit, support 100 affordability, and reconsider the impact of how Luxury Development impacts rentcontrolled units which i hope the Planning Department is committed in protecting. Thank you very much for your time. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good evening. My name is evelyn. I am a Community Organizer and student at the university of San Francisco. Communities are causally being displaced in the city. As a daughter of a single mother i have lived in apartments that are uninhabitable, unaffordable and unwelcoming. What, i mean, by that is low income, Minority Community and affluent city. This project is not consider the community as it showed and his claim. You cannot claim to help the community if there is a lack of low income units for the whole income it whole community. Please deny the project. We want 100 Affordable Housing for the community. Thank you. Have a good day. Thank you. Next speaker, please. [speaking spanish] good afternoon. My name is giovanni. I am here to make this petition. I live in the excelsior district. One person came to talk with the community. [speaking spanish] it was like a joke to us, because he offered nine units of workingclass people. And the supervisor of the excelsior. [inaudible] [speaking spanish] we want to get involved because we cannot afford expensive housing in San Francisco. We do not want luxury housing like 65 ocean. Before you make a project you should consult with the community. [speaking spanish] studied the needs and study the needs. For example, to make and apartments. There are people in the community that live alone. [speaking spanish] i hope that our older communities, in all of the district in San Francisco wake up. We cannot pay the cost of living. It is very high in San Francisco. I think it is in your hands and within your grasp. [speaking spanish] we dont want any more homeless on the streets. Please. This is a bad example for our children, our grandchildren. [speaking spanish] we want a society that lives decently for San Francisco, but for the whole town of San Francisco. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello. My name is amy. Im a civic organizer. I just want to show you a little bit about what my life looks like. I live in the neighborhood. I work in the neighborhood. I work with a lot of immigrants. I do immigrant related services in the neighborhood. We have a lot of families who are workingclass. Have more than numb to hike 4 jobs who live in basements in the excelsior with mold growing on the wall. The walls are sweaty because of the living conditions. People need more affordable units in the neighborhood. We have so many families who are being pushed out of the neighborhood, or who have to live in one bedroom apartments with over two families. This is not the way we should be supporting our immigrant families and our workingclass families in the neighborhood. Out of all of the units, only nine are going to be family sized. How many of us have you seen already in here coming to talk to you all. There is more than nine of us. Are you going to house all of us . We live in the neighborhood. Are you going to house us with this . It does not work for our neighborhoods. We are here to demand, and i ask that you deny this permit. We need a project that is affordable so the people that actually live in our community. We want you to engage with us. A lot of those families im talking about and i see who have Health Issues because of where they have to live, they they are at work. They are picking up the kids. They are working those 23 jobs to be able to pay rent for next month. Think about that when you are thinking about what choice youre going to make. A lot of families that are not living in great conditions right now in the neighborhood. We can make that change. But we need your support. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. [speaking spanish] good afternoon, commissioners. I organize im sorry. [speaking spanish] [speaking spanish] the tenants have been mistreated by their landlords. Weve talked about not only the rights of the tenant with the rights that they have a citizens. It will not benefit this community. [speaking spanish] it is going to be a mystery to these neighborhood families. There is going to be more displacement to mr segregation of these families. Because once the landlord cmr luxury building being an established they are going to see they can raise our rent and we will displace other people that are in there right now. I am asking you to please see that this project from 65 ocean is going to create more problems than benefit for our community. You can see like you have been seeing, accessible units for our families the ones in the community. What do you think is accessible to us . There is not going to be enough room for the families for more than one child. I am requesting for you to deny permit because they do not understand our community. They do not understand us. Thank you very much. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello. I just wanted to say, excelsior is mostly people of color, secondgeneration. I think putting a condo there, especially luxury housing condo does not make any sense. It is not for the community. None of us can afford it. That is why im saying, if you could please deny this permit and please give us one so you can help the community. So we can thrive and stay here and live here. San francisco is our home and we want to live here for a good time. Thank you. Think you. Next speaker, please. Hello. Sixtyfive ocean is bad for our community because it takes a lot of San Francisco natives and relocates them to places they dont want to go, or be. Yeah, it will like have people go to places they dont want to, and the apartments in their are not space for families of five or more, and it will just throw everything out of um focus for working families. We demand that you deny this permit. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is carl and i work for usm and the contractual network. We work for the mission and excelsior communities. I want to take a moment and highlight and make sure we understand how we are reviewing this right now. It is to support a fair argument that the project could have a Significant Impact on the environment. Not that it does. I do believe they have carried that burden of proof buried there is a fair argument that this project could have a significant Environmental Impact upon localized excelsior where it will be built. To approve this environmental report as it has been written would be negligent. I would have you referenced page seven of the environmental report where they mentioned an Impact Review where they mention 274 units. If you calculate the units and that quartermile radius there are 476 units. This department reviewed this cumulative impact and that over 40 of the units, in the project vicinity, were not included in the analysis. It could have a Significant Impact on the environment and the motion should be made to have further review of these impacts. Furthermore, i think the same thing was done with the Environmental Review with regard to the impacts and vehicle miles traveled. Lanning failed to properly assess similar impacts. The assessment of the report, only reviewed the impact of the current proposed project in isolation. Without looking at the potential community of impacts that are within a quartermile radius. What danger that could have. It was this department that passed all of the Development Projects along the valencia corridor. There is an increase of injuries along the valencia corridor. Especially with the significant increase for a residents to use them in high demand. All of which who could have been prevented with proper study and planning. Utilizing old data can make up for new changes that have come to the environment is not sufficient. I would say please, they have carried the burden of proof and made the argument. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. Im antonio diaz. We have been working on land use and Community Planning issues for 25 years. For the last 15 years in excelsior. It is interesting to reflect how in the recent 2020 report your Planning Department they stated that the mission is a neighborhood in the stage of late gentrification as defined by uc berkeleys urban displacement project. By late gentrification they mean at the stage where with low income to moderate income families overwhelmingly are being replaced by high income individuals. They stated in the report, the Planning Efforts in the mission did not fully anticipate the affordability crisis in recent years and the pace of growth occurring now and expected to occur in the near future. I would actually quibble with that statement. A lot of us have been here at Planning Commissions raising concerns about the impacts of Luxury Development in the mission and the displacement that would ensue. By the Planning Department designated designating the mission as being in the stage of late gentrification. I would say that they would agree with us. As you heard earlier, specifically the area where this project is located is an area, once again, by the displacement project as being real displacement. I urge you to make decisions that will not exacerbate these displacement pressures, gentrification pressures, that are affecting the excelsior. I ask you to deny this project and support communitybased planning for the 100 Affordable Housing residents in the neighborhood. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi. Good afternoon. My name is letizia asp and emma housing lead organizer. I live off of capital and ocean avenue. Im here to ask the Planning Commission, ask you all, to deny the permit for 65 ocean. We need a project that is affordable to the people that live in the excelsior and surrounding neighborhoods like myself. Sixtyfive ocean is a majority luxury project, not for workingclass families that live in we know longterm tenants living in the vicinity, any luxury projects are negatively impacted. For the past two years, i have been seeing more of my neighbors , who live on ocean, come into our tenant rights rights clinic with problems around eviction. Approving this permit for this luxury project will only exacerbate the housing issues being felt in the neighborhood. The developer needs to engage with the community to design a project that truly needs it meets Community Needs and what is being proposed is insufficient and not what workingclass families need in the neighborhood. I used to also live in the excelsior. I lived off of brazil and mission. My friends were evicted when their rent was increased up to 4,000 per month. When they went to court to entered into an agreement to vacate the next day. This is what families are facing. They are facing high rents and to pressures from landlords. If you approve this project. That will get worse. I really hope that you are hearing all of the people that are coming up today from the neighborhood and take into account our comments and not approve this project. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. My name is susan marsh. A couple of days ago we just learned in the middle of massive under production of housing the city has somehow managed to hit its target for housing at the income level being that this project would serve. That alone, even leaving aside the well documented fact of the secondary displacement that can occur around such projects. Even though leaving aside the currently welldocumented fact that low income rents increase are on these projects and lead to displacement that would make this project undesirable for the entire city all the more so for this workingclass family oriented neighborhood that is undergoing the problems that its residents on the people working there have already described so eloquently. I would urge you, therefore to reject approval and enter into a Community Planning project that will allow the real experts on what the Community Needs to do so. Thank you for your time. Let me also announce we are down to our last six speakers as far as what the sheriff told me. If theres anyone in the overflow room, please come on down. We are nearing the end of public comment. Good afternoon. My name is natalie kim on organizer for common advocates. We are in the heart of excelsior currently i work in all of the high schools including ida b wells. Im here to represent the voices of my youth and be predominantly serve our black, brown and api students. Ida b wells, the majority of the students do not live in the district they are commuting from east bay. Some even from north bay as a result of the high gentrification. And as a result of that, their truancy, their attendance rates on their ability to rise up to school on time is highly effective. Not only is Affordable Housing within reach of transit that is affordable to the students necessary for their success, within the schools, but also for their success in social Living Standards and their emotional wellbeing. Not only do we support the demand to say no no to the housing complex. We urge you as Planning Commissioners and bureaucrats of this institution to consider the likelihood of the students that are most vulnerable to the broken School System and who have the highest needs. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is gina. [inaudible] i oppose and deny the permit of this luxury Housing Development at 65 ocean. For the past decade we have witnessed the negative impact it has caused in most neighborhoods. Existing and longtime residents cannot afford more than 3,000dollar market rate rents. This will be in the same fate if this project is built. It has 136 market rate units with only night affordable units and 48 bmr. Most units are studios and one bedroom and do not apply with affordability and needs of our Family Oriented Community base and excelsior. Although this project provides unionized labor, the outcome of this project is not for existing residents and tenants wrist being priced out of excelsior. Landlords of adjacent properties began to charge more rent and doing more buyouts or evictions to cash in on the new population of nearby luxury and highend market Rate Development. I provide tenant counseling in the excelsior, and all of my clients are already facing evictions or at risk of being priced out. By proposing this marketbased development in the excelsior, it does not alleviate the housing crisis. As developers, the Planning Commission, and the Planning Department continued to prioritize. Our Community Members will no longer be able to afford living there regardless if they are tenants or homeowners. Please deny the permits of this luxury project at 65 ocean. Luxury housing is off us. We reject this project, but we are not giving up and approving this project. Please reject and deny this permit. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. John avalos. Twenty year resident in they excelsior district. My son went to school at crayon box which is a childhood facility that was at the site. It has been displaced with the eminent potential construction going on. I am here to say that we should design the permit and uphold the appeal. I was the supervisor for district 11 where this project resides. As a supervisor, i took my vision from the community. One of the things that was really important for me was to make sure that we were actually raising the number of Community Voices that were speaking about what our district should look like. Overwhelmingly what came out of the Community Voices, in the district, is that we need more Affordable Housing. We need the Planning Department and the city departments to listen to us and understand what our needs are. To make sure we can actually fulfill the needs of workingclass, people of color, immigrants who make up the excelsior district. At one point i brought john ramm out to talk about how we can ask to have a plan like that. To look at me mystified, as if that was something the Planning Department is responsible for doing. They are responsible for doing that work. They are responsible for all of the people of San Francisco. Not just people that put up millions of dollars to make projects in the city. Creating rare gentrification in the neighborhood. We should deny this project going forward. I was at a Community Meeting where the developer presented and he actually many in the community of immigrants was like checking off a box. No efforts to try to understand what we are saying, what our needs were. Show up, say he did it and leave. That is what he did. Deny the project, please. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is maria. We oppose the existing plan for 65 ocean. We support 100 Affordable Housing. My colleague james spoke to the detrimental impact of luxury housing. The rent controlled what i want to talk about is about this process. The ways in which it has been rushed. While the developers claim that they have had community engagement. Communities ask for an accessible hearing because when the neighborhood has been granted. Now we are present for a vote on the future of the excelsior without the deep authentic engagement with the community that will be most impacted by this. [inaudible] reflected on how important that practice of deep authentic democracy was. The fact that we had it at a time we had it at a time that was accessible. [reading notes] im actually pretty disappointed in this body for not respecting the people of excelsior enough to ensure this project gets talked about deeply, and thoroughly in the neighborhood that it would impact. The city has a lot of centers of power. City hall is only one of them. Centers of power within the community should be respected, especially when the impacts of these projects can materialize negatively for generations. Do not approve this project. Do not make the experiences of people already struggling to make it in San Francisco worse. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. [speaking spanish] hello, my name is jacqueline. [inaudible] i am a San Francisco born and raised Community Organizer and educator. I am proud to say that excelsior has been one of the first places i called home in San Francisco. As a Community Organizer and educator i understand the needs of workingclass families, particularly workingclass immigrant families like my own grade many of whom live in this district. I really want to focus on numbers right now, and i want to talk numbers. Nine out of 193, i will repeat that, nine out of 193 family size units i know does not meet the needs of this neighborhood. Or any district in San Francisco. I work with young people who aspire to live and thrive in the city who have already met. I thank them for taking time off to be here. This project does not represent workingclass families in San Francisco. Young people in San Francisco, and students in San Francisco. I strongly oppose that you pass this permit. I also want to recognize it is very hot amidst climate chaos, i encourage everyone here to drink some water. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. I am father john jimenez prayed ive been involved in the excelsior for over 30 years, helping Epiphany Church area and ive been in the Mission District over the past ten years. I have watched this process of gentrification. I am asking to deny this permit as good as they tried, we just have to draw a line at any kind of development in the excelsior, and the baby a which we will hear about in a little while. We need to save the sunset and draw a line. Any kind of luxury housing, because it starts the process of gentrification. I have dealt with it personally was so many tragedies and difficulties of displacement. We will have a lot of union jobs when we pass prop a and fund Affordable Housing. That is the solution instead of being divided. I ask you to not pass and to deny this permit. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. Corey smith on behalf of the San Francisco housing any time we these conversations and highly debated projects, none of it sits well with any of us. These are difficult things prayed i know the supporters and opponents to care deeply about what happens in there is a lot of misinformation happens in our city. There is a lot of misinformation out there. A couple of important facts on this, 40 of these homes are going to be two bedrooms those are Family Housing according to the definitions of the city. There is a large group, men and women, in the trades supporting this project. It will be local and union pay jobs at building this project going forward. There is actually something else, for me, its a little bit personal. When i first got involved in this, one of the first projects that i spent a lot of time on. At that point it was the afford housing bonus program. I was in this room, multiple times, my first hearing i was here until about 1 00 a. M. Trying to figure all of this stuff out. That piece of legislation was unanimously passed at the board of supervisors. We are not seeing very many projects come through the pipeline. The standards are really, really high. We spend a ton of time working on a program, and try to get this box set. If you follow these rules and you do these things, and you bring us projects. This is the type of housing that we want people to be building in San Francisco. Now we have that opportunity in front of us. The boundaries have been set in the project sponsor is meeting those boundaries. I wholeheartedly encourage you to move the project forward. People desperately need homes and places to live. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good evening, supervisors. Moving into Peter Papadopoulos with a Mission Economic development agency. We would ask you to listen to the neighbors and all of the workingclass folks that are saying that they do not want this project. It doesnt work for them as written. This is not a question of code. It probably raises an important question about a project that has been been allowed to triple in size almost, 67 units up to 193 units and that is on page two of your case report. That sounds like an incredible windfall in exchange for only 10 of the housing being at the kind of amis the folks are calling for. You have 10 at 55 ami. The rest is at those tier levels. We all know that in a neighborhood like the excelsior. They dont work in the same way theyre going to work in other neighborhoods. I would raise the questions, do we need a neighborhoods based version of home s. F. That would address these kinds of needs so workingclass people will not be worried theyre going to get so out of what is now a huge project . It could end up being a huge windfall for the developer to take advantage of this program in a neighborhood. I dont know how far you end up from market. That raises another question i have a good it looks like this is written up as a rental project at lower ami. Can they condo map this and flip up to higher ami . If so, can we take that into consideration of do we need to make sure this is in fact also just a rental project right off the top . When i address this question of what market rate housing does come of data is now coming in the university of Minnesota Study that is preliminary released data. You can find it online. Very specifically what people said here today which is around a project, a market rate project of 40 units or more we can expect a 300 meters circumference of raised lowcost rents. Please deny this project as written. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello, commissioners. I am also a district 11 resident i have been for forever since i emigrated to the United States. Excelsior is one of the only places i can live in and be unapologetically gay at the same time. That is what makes this district great. It is the immense diversity that are able to have meaningful engagement and public voice. Also, the amount of students on young people that are still able to live and afford to be able to live there and really feel like it is home. I wanted to piggyback on what someone said earlier, about the schools here and what is happening. What 65 oceans influences in the district. Within the 1 mile radius of 65 oceans there are actually ten schools that will be there, right . Is not including private schools that are in the vicinity. Within a. 5mile radius of that there are these Community Centers and hubs, the excelsior library, there are six of them that i can name off the top of my head. They have been they cant be here today, but so many of them i have heard from they are feeling the pressure of an affordability growing in the excelsior. One of the few last strongholds of workingclass communities in San Francisco. Here we are. I echo the sentiments in denying 65 ocean request until they can come up with a better solution that will really help and benefit the best interest of these communities that i have been living here and wish to live here for generations moving forward. Thank you so much. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners. My name is oscar. I am a resident of the neighborhood, lifelong resident. I live in one of those and owned one of those Million Dollar homes that are out there in the mission terrace. We bought our house speaker, nancy pelosi one the time when a union and we bought our house in a time when a union janitor that my mother and father were able to afford a home. It wasnt just one, it wasnt a lucky few, it was a lot. It was a rich, Robust Community of a Central American immigrant that came into the neighborhood, union, workingclass and were able to afford a home. That is nonexistent. You know this, right . You are tasked with this every single week. I think and i have been in this battle for the last 20 years coming in front of you all and talking about the need for Affordable Housing, versus market rate housing. It has not changed. It is workingclass pitted against workingclass. The game has not changed. It is still set up in a way where we are fighting amongst each other for crumbs. Whether its housing crimes or job crumbs, the game has to change. The type of planning that we do in our community has to change. There has to be a significant reform and a system. This is every week, its the same thing. I vowed not to come here anymore i owe it to my community. I owe it to the legacy of my family. What you are hearing is a huge need for Community Planning. If you have a Planning Commission full of workingclass people on both sides saying yes, no, yes, no. I think we need to go back to the drawing board. You need to deny this permit. You need to bring the developer, and bring the community so together come up with the best project that works for our workingclass community. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Anyone else . [please stand by] [please stand by] we sit up here every thursdag for for tenant it is, sticking r people who live where they livee that could have had benefits wit have happened and sit there and. If i may remind you, you havt itself. Commissioner. I would like to ask a questil the Community Speaking about th. Can you address why that partics statement for planning was not e environmental document. Lisa gibson. Im going to tuf who have worked on this appeal. D please respond. Michael lee, planning departe are required to analyze the proh existing zoning and plan, so thg code, the zoning maps, any adopy is not an adopted plan and doesr strategies that specifically ad. So it includes strategies for p, providing more housing in geners on plans and policies that are f mitigating or avoiding an envir. If i may also add, the Strate Department developed with the cs office i think about three yeara primary focus on the neighborhoe up with a series of recommendatr those areas. Out of that procesf neighborhood requests, one of wn for the neighborhood. That has e currently not staffed and fundee the plan there was a very lak Successful Community effort to t did not go into the next level f adopted plan and develop the kil referred to. Commissioner johnson. Thank you. First i just wante out today to talk about the issw we house everyone here in san fa place where everybody gets the y here, to work, to play, to raise here.
