Supervisor president london breed. Thank you supervisor cowen i want to thank supervisor wiener and supervisor cowen for increasing the neighborhood preferences percentage last week from 25 to 40 percent i know that they have been a lot of challenges and talks around the right percentages and when i wanted to see is 40 percent is definitely the step in the right direction we have a lot of challenges with Affordable Housing in San Francisco and in the past time and time again gone to members of the western edition and the Bayview Hunters Point Community and we said to them let us build more Affordable Housing let us make sure you have Affordable Housing in your community and when the time came for those members of the community to assess the Affordable Housing they were put in a lottery system and the chances of obtaining that Affordable Housing unfortunately was slim that is why we cant delay this process we cant stop this process moving it forward now is esteeming important were openly up the Affordable Housing were looking at 0 folks and saying finally all are right of refusal an opportunity to assess the demonstration interest unfortunately, this is not been the case it is not the case at mary he will on Rogers Community and good evening davis i i dont want this to had a rosa parks and seniors in my communities are sleeping on couchs and sleeping are with relatives not a place to stay but born and raised in the he western edition how can i get into rosa parks two i qualify but we cant delay this legislation we need to make sure those members of that communities have access to these units sxooel important we ask the communities support and more Affordable Housing were lying to them when we say this is assess theyll have an opportunity the the truth of the matter not an opportunity thats the problem thats why we have to move forward with the legislation i want to thank what kind colleagues for supporting this i think ive heard a lot of arguments you know sxoirl district versus neighborhood ive heard arguments 40 percent versus 100 percent i realize no perfect solution this is the first time step going in the right direction this and preclude us from revisiting and making that better legislation but to delay moving to legislation as soon as possible will be a huge mistake and devastating to the Affordable Housing we make promises we cant keep them without a preference to the folks r that live in the neighborhood and supervisor cowen im looking forward to hearing the presentation as well as from members of the public. Thank you supervisor wiener. Thank you, madam chair and supervisor president london breed for your leadership in moving this forward and proud to be a cosponsor of this legislation we are in the middle of just a terrible housing crisis were all working very, very hard to build has much Affordable Housing as we can as quickly as possible and things happening with the ballot and the trust fund and various pieces of legislation that are moving through this to the supervisors to there what we produce and get it done faster we need the Affordable Housing yesterday we need as much as possible but it is in order to program to work people in the city have to be able to assess the Affordable Housing and people need to have a fair shot at getting into Affordable Housing this is built in their community and it is beyond frulth e frustrating to people in various parts of city and communities when Affordable Housing is built in their neighborhood and they are not recent to get into the Affordable Housing and their neighbors not aable so in my district in the Lgbt Community the 55 laguna project with one and 10 unit of Affordable Housing for low income seniors which has been spaerpd by open house our o focusing on the needs of lgbt seniors where weve raised money in the community for many years to support moving forward with this housing and with many, many people working on and we need to make sure that our residents have a fair shot at getting into this housing that is balanced legislation i want to thank supervisor cohen their legislation for the change of 25 to 40 and be moving forward with that legislation i want to say weve received a Statement Today from some Community Organizations that was internally contradictory 40 percent was not enough it should be 100 percent as i understand has serious legal problems to go to 100 percent before you 2, 3, 4 the same statement is it applies that it should be zero percent because of the Affordable Housing is being built in more areas of some places in the city we have a coalition it is saying contradictory things the fact is whether or not youre right now in chinatown or bayview are the mission or potrero we need to build more Affordable Housing and the residents of those neighborhoods have a fair shot of getting into the Affordable Housing in their neighborhood recently purchased a large site in the mission to build avenue, i was happy to support that and we need more Affordable Housing for example, in the mission and make sure that residents of the mission have a fair shot at getting in right now from the current law this is zero preference for living in the neighborhood and so were now going if zero to 40 percent and that benefits the residents of the mission it benefits the residents the potrero and chinatown and the bayview we need to move forward. Seeing no other names well go ahead and that i have even though to the may i have for a brief presentation and dive into Public Comment. Thank you. Good morning supervisor president london breed and chair cowen and other members sophie from the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development as you may know the proposal is would create a third preference for access to affordable units the proposal as amendment calls for 40 percent of the unit as they become available to be retired for the current residents in the supervisorial and a halfmile buffer around any project on line the preference applies to New Buildings and the preference will apply to the housing fined or administrative code by the Mayors Office of housing and Workforce Development and also want to note that last week the file was duplicated thanks to supervisor wiener to codify that 3 duplicated file will be coming to the Planning Commission for the before being heard again separately i want to restate our policy goals an effort to lead to the needle to insure conditional equal and fair assess while honoring the fact many communities local communities form bond and crate the neighborhoods the neighbors make those neighborhoods dynamic and the neighbors being priced out our here e hope 0 geography graphic preference will help the bonded communities including the schools and corridor and fosters centers without ibm hepatitis b equal opportunity or excluding anyone or more groups there were a number of questions at the last weeks hearing i want to make sure to address those briefly questions included who applies more Affordable Housing and who occupies the Affordable Housing and our ability to implement the preference in which we use federal or state fund letting e let me who occupies the building 100 percent of our Affordable Housing portfolio is occupied by people who work in San Francisco who applies for the Affordable Housing does vary approximately 17 percent of applicants this is based on disconnecting analysis 17 percent are from the neighborhood of the sampling of the projects, 68 from San Francisco as a whole, and as i said 100 percent of units are occupied by people how work e. R. Live in San Francisco regarding the question how many buildings and mohcd pipeline has stated or federal im sorry we have a question. Supervisor president london breed. How do you verify their addresses when they apply because from my understanding no clear verification and anyone can use my address they president in this process. I defer to Maria Benjamin who directs our bloufrt housing. Good morning supervisor president london breed we currently ask for documents like a pay stub or a if they worked here or for living here a bill in in their name that for the address that their claim is their San Francisco address. What kind of bills giving me and then example is there specific requirements or general requirement. Very specific requirement a utility bill for the same property or usually the easiest is a pay stub shows their address. But a pay stub didnt necessarily mean theyre actually a resident oftentimes because is their people that use outlet peoples addresses that explicit necessarily mean they actually live there. Asking for tax returns and Bank Statements all of those documents have to have the same San Francisco address. Okay. But so sounds like you dont ask for something specific but ask for a variety of documents. Yes. Thank you for the clarity. One question brought up by supervisor kim recommended to the ability for us to implement the preference when there there are state or federal funds i want to go over quickly our process the existing ellis act Housing Preference is by hud and when hud heard of our efforts to introduce a neighborhood preference we were immediately contacted from concerns from the Regional Office our formal contract was 25 percent of the preference for the residents of the neighborhood is likely effected we have not no agency has made and formal determination of this legislation and pending and the percentage the percentage has been a topic of decision when the legislation is passed hud and certainly the state housing and Community Development Agency Reviews any final 4 programs in building bes that have stated or fell funding the existing portfolio is excited programs that have stated and others federal money in the pipeline at least 7 projects that for which we anticipate the state fund and 5 for which we anticipate state fund and a question how we handle preferences for dpw or h s a and specifically 24 legislation applies to Buildings Fund and administrative code by the mohcd we ocii cant in their buildings but the commission is proactively taking that to adopt the preferences. Actually, my question what are the specific programs that are under 100 percent dpw and hsa. Okay. I apologize i have the total number 36 master Building Inspections but not the address i apologize. I had asked specifically i mean, my question what projects are not eligible for the project and you described the categories i want to know how many unit and which property. Im hopefully to succeeding development to hud the neighborhood preference at 40 percent is acceptable to them and well be able to implement any projects that includes the hud funds and certainly for the state projects that are coming up that have stated funding i can name the projects weve hopefully that one a preference is adapted well successfully make the process success whether or not there are state or federal funds. I want to know if they dont approve it how many projects. Sure. Sure i have that. And then you know my a concern that came up last week for me was specifically with the projects that have stated fund a small universe of projects with the portfolio because they require a live or work in so what is the the City Attorney said last week in the state funded project that the neighborhood apprehensive will be for those two live or work in the neighborhood my concern almost everybody in the bloifr lives in district 6 that wipes out those two reside in the south of market and tenderloin and Treasure Island im worried if we allow that for the Affordable Housing projects that it really takes away benefits of the neighborhood preference i want to make sure that interpretation we dont trespasser that. Well present the neighborhood preference to mohcd as residents who live within a geography boundary of the preference area if they didnt agree not to apply the preferences not a circumstance in which we anticipate providing a preference for people that live or work in the neighborhood i appreciate the opportunity to clarify that. At that point with an interpretation will there is an opportunity for the board to kind of help to guide the direction. Yes. Certainly well come back to let you know when we make the case to hud or the committee but you return to you in a year to report on the results of first year prelims and that includes a report on the success in approaching both hud and mohcd but well be engaging as we make that effort. Okay. Thank you. All right. Lets go to Public Comment at this time i have a few Public Comment cards first ill call up dr. A. M. Those brown calling names . His are translator calling names . Thank you madam chair members of the panel and ladies and gentlemen, im presenting San Francisco in a c p in the course of San Francisco baipt to use the words of spike lisa movie do the right thing it is time this city do the right thing by black people who were targeted by redevelopment who have been victims of injustice because of the lottery system if the truth be told theyve been advocacy groups that have supported their constituent base as they should have but to make that thing fair and do the right thing we need to as a city be humble enough and courage up u enough to admit an egg gregarious wrong done to nobody but the black community no bayview Hunters Point and the western edition where our culture is and has gun by every other ethic group has their act explosive i appeal to goad and vote 2440 percent to stop the hemorrhaging and great loss of black population from this city it is a shame before god since 1970 were 60 thousand africanamericans from this city and in past times it appears to have been incorrect to do anything about now the time like i said just do it and give us our 40 percent. Thank you next calling names and doing the transactional. speaking foreign language. a lot residents in chinatown actually have not had a chance to understand the legislation therefore we ask the board of supervisors to extend the time to educate our residents and let them have an opportunity to voice their concerns and with other communities so everyone can, treated fairly thank you very much. Thank you calling names . Thank you supervisor cowen members supervisor breed one thanks for the hearing thank you such for the legislation that is so seriously needed and something i heard earlier everywhere i go they want to see my ida passport or california drivers license or id i have no idea what is wrong that that, and, secondly, let me say that one of the worst words that government bans history can say to by africanamerican is wait weve been waiting for fairness from this society and this system for 4 hundred years it has not happened yet and this will not bring us into fairness but put us a lot closer we absolutely ask you to move that now at 40 percent what because of what happened in San Francisco ive been here 50 years and it is what happened since i got here is San Francisco has committed in the Africanamerican Community residential genocide without shame not only down it without shame but trying to justifies it is right were doing it here when you look at the statistics that supervisor president london breed last week of 8 years after americans getting 63 bmr units out of one thousand thats genocideal well not stand for please, please move this and move that now if youre a friend of our community we expect your support thank you. Thank you, mr. Right. Can be incorporated into the umbrella of Affordable Housing, Affordable Housing is supposed to be important people on fixed income and a person making one and 22,000 lived in a building context with with Money Management and Case Management what are you doing with their money you are further take advantage of pope i putting a spanish woman on tv and under cry the 40 the percent of hours for people in the position like her the truth of the matter a higher percentage of housing for people making 95,000 a year this is an insult of the voters intelligence and my intelligence that 40 percent should be for people in need of Affordable Housing not people that are in high income making the amount of money i explained to you clapping. next speaker. calling names . Good afternoon supervisor cowen supervisor breed, supervisor kim and supervisor wiener im calling all of you individually because i have seen and watched on numerous occasions all of you that are sitting here with the courage on issues in San Francisco especially the controversial you make our stance known and the rest is history so we are here today, we want you to be disi have no further details i saw the speakers have spoken the injustice to the Africanamerican Community in San Francisco there must be justice this is the beginning of what youll see as we moved up with a lot of actions im going to echo supervisor breed is that it took us to come this way a first segregation and well come back and talk about the legislation there is room to accommodate everyone as also supervisor jane kim mentioned when the city goes to hud he want r we want to know what we say no excuses in this legislation moving forward and like i said i call on you individually i know you all and your leadership in the city to we wanted to 40 that is what the bayview Hunters Point multi Purchase Center is advocating and we deserve to get an opportunity once and for all thank you for your leadership and hope to see you on the street somewhere thanks. Thank you calling names . Good afternoon, supervisors thank you for this time my name is Shamann Walton im a native the San Francisco and bayview Hunters Point a resident of bayview Hunters Point a executive director of the Community Developers and a member of the San Francisco board of education there is not a point in time particularly in terms of what is going on ill every get excited about detailing Affordable Housing opportunities this is a must for recipe in the southeast sector of the city and chris as a whole we know about the gentrification in the western edition and the declining black population in San Francisco today and there is truly no credible argument in detailing the neighborhood preferences for families that have bang pushed out of the city continuingly that is in and of itself not acceptable but this legislation that 40 percent preference coupled with the housing bonds pass a couple weeks ago will help the residents in all ores r areas of San Francisco to stay in this city we dont need a delay in the neighborhood preference but speed up this benefits all san franciscans and all community let me actual why would he need this young Community Developers is building 60 percent of the Affordable Housing on the shipyard 050 to 60 percent ami by sheer numbers there is no type neighborhood preference for the folks that fought for this community not have the opportunity to stay we need to make sure that opportunity laftsz 40 percent a small ask if we want to put a dent in the trend that are eradicating trend in the city 24 city it supposed to be more all of us to keep us all here unfair is the system it favors people with higher population in a city that serves the population that has a huge decline thank you. clapping. thank you all right. Folks let me go over the rules i didnt do this at the beginning no applause not my rule id like to show fingers it is a much more visibly and kwol powerful visible anticipate when you hear something you dont like instead of boeing or hissing just thumps down. Good morning, madam chair and supervisor president london breed. And supervisors im donald a resident in San Francisco concerned about the housing crisis and speaking on behalf of the San Francisco bayview rurldz foundation a o of renter and other folks of life we definitely support this Affordable Housing with the neighborhood because we go down to the Planning Commission and hearings and we fight more Affordable Housing one that is built what happens next thats the problem because 55 unit were told that lgbt and hiv 2k5i7b8d men have the first dibs on the affordable units but it is only the first come, first serve from the pool of 10,000 applicant no designation if were in the neighborhood or not this is definitely a step in the right direction and the organization supports for the most part that we lean on the Developers Financing to finance the affordable projects all over the city and we support of 40 percent, of course, salons were able to give it additional height with the buildings we appreciate that because we want to bring those rents down and bring them down as soon as possible so we support this legislation it is a state of the art and thank you. Thank you calling names . Youre welcome. Thank you. Im curiosity im the Program Manager in San Francisco on behalf of the vaejdz community i urge you to increase the preference if 25 to 40 percent and destine is by the supervisorial district that all inevitable participants have not left out i urge you to do this today thank you. Thank you, sir. Good morning, supervisors. Im louis with the economic Workforce Development agency in the mythical meta to has been struggling to aid this in the city working hard to make sure that new units are built we on the preference is a good thing let me say we think is a good thing, however, we think that this legislation is flawed and should be delayed some of the challenges with the legislation it lifts the pillow boundary as real neighborhood boundaries this does to the patch the essence of a neighborhood whether the mission or the castro or bayview i think that also the challenges that it treats all the neighborhoods the same the neighborhoods are unique and that is what makes San Francisco unique we dont want the mission to be treated agency the marina and having a nuance approach to this legislation is really, really important a 40 percent krotdz does not necessarily make sense for us i tell you that 40 percent doesnt make sense for the mission lastly there is Little Community input not a going back and forth between staff or the board or community on this legislation i will encourage for legislation to be delayed so that the kind of prospective for the Community Meeting i reminded you this does not needing meet the needs of Mission District. calling names . Im malcolm with the chinatown Vice President center for the record chinatown cdc strongly supports a neighborhood preference not any misconception e acceptance again that there is no the neighborhood preference this proposal a political district preference and will undermine the goal of trying to keep brown and black folks in San Francisco while at the same time excluding board psychopaths of folks in districts out of 5 and 10 and 6 and 8 at this point so we urge the board to slow down to taking it and forget how to craft a neighborhood preference i promise you well be at the table we strongly support a neighborhood apprehensive i want to be clear on that thank you. Thank you next cards in front of the me are calling names . First up grace mary citizens are you here . Okay good morning or good afternoon. Im grace martinez a organizer with the california for community gunshot a native san franciscan i dont know if it matters ive been organizing primarily in district 10 in the black community and specifically around housing issues we have to acknowledge that housing is not only a k34r5ik9 issue but contentious this legislation before us today only addresses a portion of problem the black community has been decimated in population from 2000 to now 12 though africanamericans have been displaced from San Francisco and in large part not an issue of Affordable Housing but i think in order to do justice more than 40 percent neighborhood preference i think what is challenging that we support both either the delay or also pga something right now but no matter this warrant more discussion and research in order to turn the tide of the migration it occurred. Thank you, sir. Good afternoon. Im from the council of the Community Organizations first of all, i want to say we whoefrld support of the idea of a neighborhood preference particularly in the community that clamor for the preferences in their neighborhood as member Gallo Malcolm said not a neighborhood preference a district preference of 40 percent in the bayview for example, 40 percent of the units for folks for potrero hill a 40 percent preference in district 540 percent for folks in the inner sunset the other part there are particular communities and particular problems were trying to aid for example, 55 laguna as supervisor wiener quoted is at the assumption that 40 percent of youll senior lgbt household live in district 8. More over that if we move to something working in as supervisor kim mentioned since most people work in district 6 doesnt work and live in is preference in district 6 will end up being a citywide perch as were trying to solve a problem four neighborhood preferences by having created boundary that are district preferences and by not addressing this specific concerns of the specific neighborhoods ive heard come up the behaving the western edition and selma were missing the boat the other thing telling me with hud that contacted the city around their concerns rather than the city working the clerk will take the roll with hud to make sure that 40 percent is a legal boundary we can reach citywide maybe wait new now but the problem greater if we are forced to watt with no preferences and challenged legally if above to address overseeing particular neighborhoods in the mission and bayview and reaching higher than 40 percent and Southern California our problem thank you very much kathy davis and im kathy be davis the director of str services the africanamerican leaders that have all come up and support that and want to to move forward speaking on their behalf and the on behalf of the community we need to make change happy i disagree with this i have been working on this for over a year and a half the legislation since june up personally made sure we had a separately argument designed by the equal Justice Society and the Public Advocates to look at what was possible and this is what is possible a lot time and energy into this the supervisors are taking a risk and we need to support that. Yes. I bought a neighborhood preference but looking at supervisorial district as a win we need to Work Together we need to make some change happen other things added on top of that for the africanamerican yes, maam displacements preferences noted just about neighborhood by displacement outburst of San Francisco not just the neighborhood but the entire city to supporting that and make change happen and make that happen today, i think that it is really important that we stop this you can hurry up and wait and oh, im not involved well become part of future mr. Larkin but do stop us that working hard to make that happen thank you. Thank you very much. Are you carla tucker. Good morning. Im carla my mother is a native san franciscan im a native San Francisco born and raised in the bayview community. Community id like to stay in therefore i strongly obtain to any delays in the increase for the 40 percent we look at the out migration of black people weve waited long enough this is a community i believe in and its time thank you. Thank you. Next speaker is oh, l i please come up, sir. Thank you very much im a lifetime residents ive been before this body and grew up in San Francisco advocating more Affordable Housing the 40 percent of new development is good i like to see that passes if more important to three and four those developments that have already been up and running and we have people that are living in those developments that are not in the requirement of legislation and lay under the health and safety code you heard me mention those before you 33. 34. 3 the preference of the community to have as residents that live in the development in their community i dont think is off the table it should be that way but also the preference of the income categories of the people residing in overseeing developments is important in bayview Hunters Point you have development that have taken place that the ami 50 percent of the ami is very low if that very low a declaratory but of an existing law that requires the extremely low being added to it variable income not only provided for but occupied with affordability coverage of 55 years and this has not took place in my opinion for the off migration for africanamerican is the lack of oversight and holding those accountable for adhering to the policies that makes sure that the people in those income policies remain in the development this is a document i have that for the final and exclusive determination the Mayors Office of housing the final conclusion and determination of the this legislation lay was offered by john burton sb 2113 that replies housing that was torn down in San Francisco from the 50s through the 70s and 80s but now that requirement for the replacement of those unite has been taken over the table by the department of finance so 5 thousand 8 hundred something unit in the morning be available and developed for people of those income categories impounded with the problem of not be able to hold the developers and the managers accountability to what the law requires thank you. Thank you. Okay. inaudible . Thank you. Sir your time is up we have a chamber to get to thank you. calling names . Rose. Hello. Good morning, supervisors and everybody here i was displaced i was from the sunset district and i managed to get a preservation because it happened right after the preference and i working hard with the Mayors Office with broke and ultimately we got the preferences the biggest problem if i had to move into my neighborhood i wouldnt have been able to no Affordable Housing there i was lucky we were so esteem we did not fit into any qualification anywhere to the challenge was intense and the table at bayview helped us to the qualification is more important than if you have to go through a lottery but then win the lottery and not qualify you know how frustrating that is so the thing is that most people in the low income are going to be protecting low and extreme although, the one and 20 im people make so much money a really good salary is compared to what theyre making we need to reconstruct our city and really understand what reasonable housing is an Affordable Housing we need to rebegin this and bhiefz neighborhood i moved into a family apartment beautiful building on the street we met wonderful people and there were needles everywhere people have defecating outside children have to witness this we have to rebegin also building for the homeless michael apartments in neighborhoods like taylor and eddy a good micro apartment getting off the streets and live in a place thirty days and after that through months. Think about it. Thank you for giving us something to think about calling names . Hello my name is teresa from the balls Housing Program part of the program being a market weve been praying for a neighborhood preference that is just to be clear although outside of market is receiving so Much Development in but there are with the collaboration housing with the marketrate and people mentions the ami about the income levels we need to probe into the may be preferences and coinciding with the income levels in that neighborhood because right now the inclusionary housing it is stuck continue in 55 percent ami and a lot of people that are applying coming to our office looking for Affordable Housing are also not 55 percent ami 40 percent ami, thirty percent ami people are receiving and when their say so that is to be looked at and also i want to cite one example on the ellis act people cant get Affordable Housing at the same time, if there is a 100 percent ava state funded Affordable Housing will not allow local preference so their needs to be a Community Planning and communication with the hud and or in this particular situation the neighborhood preference because there are also ellis act evicted not being accepted because of the income levels is a complicated matter that housing shortage and were asking for a continuance for delays there need to be a talk in the neighborhood as to what are the income levels in the neighborhood at this point, a discussion of doyle us inclusionary housing income requirements and we really need to look as well, thank you. Good morning. Im chris from the Housing Program i also i have to say im really bothered this is coming before us on the same hearing as the 5m the developer has been going into the neighborhood saying a neighborhood preference and dont worry about preference to the Housing Available and it feels hard to hear that on the same day neighborhood preference ive been working on for 20 years during the redevelopment days with disliking preferences i want to make sure that will happen and not rushed through the process developers both affordable and marketrate developers is a win for them they love to promise neighborhood preference but for the sole practitioners they have to get people into the unit it is not a win an empty promise a political political promise to put this forward without making sure we can make sure that the numbers work for people i believe in this i think we should have a task force to make sure we qualify and i appreciate that people came out here to talk about the numbers and how it hadnt worked in the process how the state money in their dollars federal money how it restrict so many people it is a reality the bureaucracies is a huge barrier it is hard to keep peoples morale ii urge to open that up and make 3 solvent not just past this Development Deal but work on this so people are guaranteed theyll get what theyve been promised thank you.

Good morning, supervisors from the Mission District i want to mention a strongly that the Mission District support the neighborhood preference the mission in particular the Latino Community has been displaced in a big numbers like the Africanamerican Community we really need to have a neighborhood preference but the way this was presented is effecting us like the neighborhood like the excelsior the excelsior didnt have any development is a Diverse Community theyre now part of that were asking you if you can delay and include other neighborhoods and the represents from the Planning Commission they ask no for the political supervisorial district but the neighborhood to make that happen and maybe if we have more time we can decide that the bayview needs more 40 percent but lets have the time and the this will have an impact in the community for the grassroots is happening in the mission and the bayview it is all over the city and take the time to address that you.

Im from the Mission Collaborative im here to call for a continuance and shift the district the current district to the neighborhood preference as the person before me said the current policy is unfair and unjust no disagreement on that, however, we must not fight each other our communities are december 345i9d i was born and raised in the tenderloin i want to the same school as the president most of my friends were born and raised who grew up here dont live here in place for them this is why you know none it saying we shouldnt increase the population 25 percent is okay people are saying 40 percent is good but perhaps it should be for more and San Francisco is a city of neighborhoods it is not a city it is a city i have district only politically each district has various neighborhoods if here and this legislation is needed and it is for the timing of this is that i haveal, however, a continuance is not going to change the reality obvious being for detailed on the legislation is not going to end up displacing more people st. Marys there are not hundreds of Affordable Housing onto the math in the next few months making sure we do that is important, however, making making sure we do this correctly with each neighborhood need being address is important pivotal to make sure the city remains a city of diverse neighborhoods thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Bayview Hunters Point and multi purposing simplest and a long time residents of bay area the time is now weve already missed the boat and behind that the eight ball 40 percent now is a good start in the right direction for something were already behind the eight ball on where it is neighborhood and we work with in our districts to get to a neighborhood preference but 40 percent now is better than still waiting and waiting and waiting how many years 1960 to 1970 the redevelopment and how many years for the ellis act if we dont act now people will be displaced and thousands of unit in the wings waiting on a legislation the time is now to act and then well still go back to the draugd at the attention of everyone i praise the board for looking at this issue and also commend you in advance for making that happen thank you. Thank you very much is there anyone from the public that wishes to speak please come on up or after this speaker well close Public Comment. We need to do the 40 percent and grater the certifies 22 percent have been used. Thank you, very much. Such ms. Hallway kidnaps thats Public Comment thank you very much and supervisor president london breed has a few remarks and as well as i and supervisor wiener. Thank you every members of the public that came out and start by saying ms. Not perfect legislation there have been times this board of supervisors has passed legislation and weve gone back and made chances and made that better were far behind in this neighborhood preference and as or as far as i am concerned we cant continue to delay delay means denial to those folks that are still trying to hold on to living in San Francisco and just to be clear im completely happy with the supervisorial district i know that the western edition is not the same as the inner sunset i understand that there are a lot of unique neighborhoods all over San Francisco and people are proud of their neighborhoods theyre proud of their city and want to to be able to have a place at the table as i said earlier today rosa parks is about to open is one of those places that the neighborhood is asking for preference people in the western Edition Community they want access to those units yes. I realize were talking about supervisorial district which are larger than the neighborhoods again with no neighborhood preference the possibility of those residents having even access to those units is almost visually impossible and so i dont support a delay i support moving forward i support not only moving forward but looking at it and analyzing it and possible making more changes to it in the future i want to say i had an opportunity because housing is one of the most important thing to the board of supervisors i visited new york and homes in new york i talked to housing advocates and folks in new york who gave me a area full of information the fact that as far back as they remember and document theyve been doing neighborhood preferences since the late 1970s in new york and housing advocates and elected leaders have known that and have chosen to pretend like neighborhood preference never existing we couldnt do it because of laws it makes me more upset and determined to move this forward as soon as possible yes, we can work with anyone in trying to make that legislation better but the time to move that existing legislation at the table not perfect is now more specifically i want to address the issue around the lawsuit that folks have talked about in new york i had a had an to talk with the hud secretary and i understand along with supervisor cowen to meet with leader pelosi and talk about the things happening in San Francisco in clarion to what is happening in new york two Different Things they havent had a lawsuit for what were dealing with in terms of displacement of members of the community the lawsuit in new york specifically was around folks feeling like they had been left out of the process it is a different thing than what were trying to propose here they understand that there is is a real problem, no San Francisco especially leader pelosi who basically, had that communication digital with the secretary in front of me at a Public Housing development that said look we have to do Something Different lost too many people in the community and need our support with that legislation were taking a chance of federal funding we take a chance oftentimes with all kinds of pieces of legislation if in particular case we need to move forward and make that better i think that it is important we continue Mayors Office of housing has continued to work with hud and continued to work with leader pelosi and other elected leaders on the federal level we dont perceive significant amounts of money well still work with those leaders and those folks to basically get as much money on the table to build faster we deserve this preference yesterday and i think it is important to move forward to get it passed and to continue to work with these who are part of the decisionmaking process in order to make it better legislation the time is now i ask my colleagues no more details lets get this legislation moved something is better than nothing at all it is happening for far too long from the city thank you. clapping. thank you. Supervisor wiener. Thank you, madam chair and thank you to everyone that came out on both sides of the issue i know that Affordable Housing also brings out strong views from all of us. It should be that way it is the positive important issue facing the city i think we should move forward today and i think we should send a strong message that neighborhood preference legislation is incredibly important in terms of moving Affordable Housing policy forward as supervisor president london breed indicated other cities have been doing this for a long time it is way past due it is time sensitive were having more and more Affordable Housing coming online in San Francisco and the last thing to do it delay this legislation so that we continue to have zero neighborhood preference so thats the status quo zero and this delay keeps it at zero we continue to not have any kind of structure to make sure that people who live in neighborhoods have a fair shot of getting into Affordable Housing built in that community i do want to correct i i know there was and a i miss statement from the Cal Community organization this is a live with work neighborhood preference that is not true not about work not the case that anyone works in district 6 will have the same apprehensive is inadequate that about are people live and not purely about supervisorial the other aspect the supervisorial plus the half of mile buffer around the location of the Affordable Housing project that is precisely indicated to make sure that the surrounding neighborhood at the edge of the supervisorial is included that is important to me i pushed for this when the legislation was being drafted precisely for example, the 55 laguna project is at the border of district 8 and district 5 and as noted before lgbt seniors for example, dont just live in district 8 but other places even there is a concentration in district 8 i think we need to take into account in terms of flexibility around supervisorial district but i want to take issue with the notion that supervisorial district are somehow on inappropriate shot at getting into Affordable Housing in the neighborhood kwh we know when supervisorial district at the election and been that way that supervisorial districts are intentionally designed to Keep Community of interest together and we can see that from the way theyre drawn yes those are political boundary by boundary that were dawn in order to Keep Community of interest intact and to make sure that communities have representation on the board of supervisors so it is not the case that somehow purple heart political and inappropriate to use supervisorial district that is a decent proxy for the factor in drawing overseeing districts colleagues this is time sensitive ill continue to support in legislation i move we forward item one the neighborhood preference legislation to the full board of supervisors with positive recommendations. All right. Thank you very much before we take that motion lets hear from supervisor kim. Thank you chair cowen. Just wanted to make a couple of comments i had a lot of questions about this organization last week and thank you to the Mayors Office of housing and authors of this legislation working with our office to answer many of them i overall support of concept of the neighborhood preference i understand why so Many Community members wanted to see this this is frustrating to see the Affordable Housing built in our neighborhood and feel that that may not be housing for you this is important to allow that to occur im not confident this legislation whether address that in its form i support moving forward so we can begin the process of what works in terms of getting our neighborhood residents into the housing i certainly know in the district i represent that our residents need to win housing in the district and do so this is a state of the art i want to say around neighborhoods we should look at a mix of different concepts that for certain parts may work better anymore tailored in assuring that neighborhoods get the avenue, i have to say in the district i represent he perch a preference in the tenderloin and south of market i want our residents to get apprehensive for this project i dont think our district is that big and want our residents to try to be able to qualify more Affordable Housing in the district as well were not certain how the development will go in terms of the timeline and financing so ill be supporting this out of committee today, i want to you say i want to working closely with the stakeholders in terms of redefining this legislation hopefully over the next couple of weeks with the authors that are here today and hopefully, well continue to find the legislation not to months to come or a year when we evaluate this but much sooner so thank you, again to everyone that is involved that is an important discussion and glad were now supporting the policy implementation to make that a reality. Thank you, supervisor kim we appreciate your support in moving that item out of Committee Ladies and gentlemen, i just want to take a moment and recognize the Mayors Office of housing that have put their time and energy what you see today, the culmination of frankly a few years worth of work and Due Diligence from the departmental level oftentimes miss framed when an item is in the Planning Commission and comes to the board were rushing there this although weve been working on this for a very long time and the members of the public that have been advocating through black lives matter that same spirit of urgency and the desperation wear crying and bringing this legislation surfaced to address with immediacy the Current Crisis that is at hand i know this city gets things done in a smart and good way i want to see this board move with the urgency as the Lgbt Community remember 10 years ago the same sex marriages were not considered legal and, yes, that was challenged and it started here in San Francisco. Why should we not be at the forefront or Affordable Housing it issue in San Francisco is not unique there are major urban cities that are addressing similar challenges and weve done our Due Diligence met about leader pelosis and castro street and the Mayors Office of housing and with the legal advisors and that didnt 3450e7b be that the meetings stop it means they continue to go forward to continue to forward the beautiful thing about legislation it is fluid if we dont get it right well come back back to the table and advocate for it there are real legal constraints please, please trust us and said that 100 percent more certainly sounds nice not feasible and i sure that you that 40 percent is aggressive i want to correct the record there are thousands of units that have already gone to market and thoands of unit that are keyed up and more tens of thousands in the future we must address this right now if it is urgent or well pies it and we cant because the people that have been pushed out of the city the urgency and immediacy of our attention so madam clerk there is a motion that supervisor wiener made and lets do 0 roll call vote please. On the motion with a positive recommendation member kim pursue supervisor wiener supervisor cowen and madam chair, i have 3 is.

afford to live in San Francisco it is important probation officer build a wide range of housing San Francisco has deny a december sent job but a dismal for middleincome im proud those projects 5 m will be committing to assuring for a board range of families in San Francisco i want to acknowledge for a city and First Corporation to reach this deal and, in fact, i should add the project sponsor was eager to get to 40 percent and didnt fight us on it were spending a lot of time on the details but working hard to insure there was a range of income bracket for eligibility for the 5m not just the highest income that would have been eligibility as affordable and appreciate their commitment one the sud that comments the deal committing to building 2 bedrooms at the middleincome bracket and thank you to the Mayors Office of housing and Workforce Development and in particular ken rich and ann who insured before this project came before the Planning Commission the development included 33 percent of Affordable Housing as the mayor and my office have put forward to the voters in praukz last oversight and getting us to the goal from the getgo eased the negotiations over the last month to make sure we got to 40 the 5 m site with the large footprint and collection of historic and nonhistoric structures presented e presents a unique opportunity for the it Downtown Public transit that brings me to 5 m next commitment cutting one half the parking ratio for the rental buildings and the residential offices in line with the transit first policy that makes the concept a reality by building the project next to transit that reduces the number of car spots and 24 helps the neighborhoods we want developments that are in alignment with our goals of residents and workers that have safer modes of transportation including walking and biking and public permitting transit and healthy car and bike sharing ill be making an amendment reducing the total number of Parking Spaces or approximately, one and 32 from 4 hundred to less this is an important element in supporting vision zero and sherry that streets in the south of market prioritize the cyclists and transit riders hitting the 5. 2 parking ratio im sorry in the rental housing unit is a strong commitment to insure we have more residents not career drivers in the neighborhood finally as the Mayors Office of housing e Mayors Office of housing and Community Development will be presented there is a myriad of Public Benefits that serves our Organization Youth and Family Organization through open space and Community Organizations and south of market only Public School betsey carmichael k through 8 and along with the filipino cultural district and the old mint because there will be a lengthier presentation ill not glow this ill be submitting a series of amendments at the end of the hearing codifying the demonstration in the sud this insures that the critical benefits described are tied completely to the rezoning the site i site this insures along with the new zoning controls the south of market is insured a benefit like front loading the Affordable Housing fees so Mary Ann Taylor can be built and building that contribute the contribution of the dumpster building to the affordable nonprofit art space and new open space and Public Safety and transportation improvements ill add that 5 m has committed to change the exciting tdif and paying 50 percent for the residential building insuring their commitment to our Capital Improvement for the transit improvements throughout the city so with no further comments im going to turn it over to i believe to decorate john ram and the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development but supervisor wiener has some comments. Thank you briefing bra the staff report first of all, congratulate the project sponsor in and the city and communities for the increases in affordability and prairie for having Affordable Housing program that has a great mix of low income moderate income and low income a major win to be moving in the right direction and particularly it was a few years ago that it was considered controversial at the board of supervisors to even talk about moderate or middleIncome Housing we had housing advocates who were telling us we shouldnt be talking about middleIncome Housing and had a debate where some of my colleagues contend wyoming and sro percent of ami low Income Housing should not be called middleincome that was above mediator Income Housing a ask him i wish to talk about middleIncome Housing and the fact over a few years later were 92 not just talking about middleincome but delivering middleIncome Housing it as tremendous step forward a big policy in San Francisco but i also want to note i think another groundbreaking aspect of this project which is that this project will be paying full freight when it comes to transit Inch Development fees at the level the sustainability fee that is not the case in the past in fact, of course, last tuesday passed the transit sustainability fee for the first time every will require in the future that Residential Development actually pay transit fees for the last 35 years also a Development Agreement and an agreement no requirement for any transportation fee related fees this projectile would not have had to pay full transit sustainability fees because it is up for approval and the tsf will not go into effect for some time this is very important and in fact, i early on i had conversation with the developers and with city staff to make clear that project absolutely needs to pay full twrit sustainability fee a series in the south of market area and 40 of Mission Project they were not paying any transit impact fees i sat down with the city staff maybe a year and a half or two years ago i said it was going to be very, very hard for me to support any projects that dont pay their transit impact fees i want to thank the aide staff for taking this seriously and bringing forward 24 it is paying its impact fees and thank you totes developer for alleging to that that is a step forward i think this sets a great tune Going Forward to make sure our projects in the city is paying into 24 fund we know that any kinds of housing creates transit impacts and make sure that Public Transportation as well as access to pedestrians and cyclists all keeps up with the development in the city so with that, supervisor kim i think this will go through the economic Workforce Development. It is john ram and i should notes and appreciate over comments on the middleIncome Housing this project is commit to building 32 percent of madam clerk, any announcements . That is on top of that there is still hitting the praukz commitment to make sure that the 1 3rd is reasonable for the population and knitting to the 37 percent what we considered any other city higher middleincome households because of the crisis were currently, we have in San Francisco we need to be building subsidize units for this class and should mention that you know as we talk about years past in years past controversial to get the developers to build 15 percent Affordable Housing onsite weve come a long way to get to 40 percent is really been a heartwarming thing to get the developers to make sure we are building housing with half the units are for residents here in San Francisco thank you director ram. Thank you good morning, supervisors john ram with the Planning Department supervisor 40 is the now thirty having turned 60 that maybe thats the new 50 when it applies to age im there with you there is a number of speeches that want to speak youll not go over the details but want to talk about why the staff and the Planning Commission support this in the form it was in when the commission saw it weeks ago as many of you may know one of the unique elements 40 percent in legal ownership that is unusual for this part of town and the proposed project is 1. 7 million square feet and specifically open space at ground floor and on the roof of the chronicle building a number of Public Benefits, of course, embedded in the agreement youll hear if oewd im not going 0 into the details but significant friendly contributions and other benefits that the project is proposed most important my comments today given the size and scope of that with the Planning Commission why would they support it i want to other people that there are a number of members the community that haves people to us were very concerned about changing the zoning to allow the projects of this size we dont consider that a signal task changing the cladding in the downtown weve dont do often i want to other than this their concerns and talk about where why we think that is important and necessary and in fact, desirable a project first ive mentioned earlier the site is consistent of larger unutilized parking lot in single ownership of 4 acres that is lou gehrigs disease u allowing us to master plan for a site of this size and it allows greater flexibility in the arrangement of buildings and allows us to amazed open space in quantities more useful and pub assessable secondly, we believe that is compatible with the surrounding building form the Emergency Hotel is across the street it is nearly 4 hundred feet in its form and it actually allows us to amazed the buildings near 15th it is aligned with building of compatible size and height and third close to transit a block if the station for bart and muni and the central subway station as well of the foyer stations on Market Street is not one that is having capacity like the capacity for further growth and fourthly this site is a contribution on the edge of the western edge of downtown and designated most of site designated as c3 by represents the western ends and the arrangement of buildings on the sightly and the location of open space and the adjacency of lower Historic Building to the west helps guarantee the buildings of this size will not continue to the west until we get closer to van ness and fifthly it contains Affordable Housing and supervisor kim mention now 40 percent and that through a combination of oust land dedication and offsite in a quarter of a mile and next the project does have very Detailed Design guidelines that will be adopted as part of our package the d4d incorporated a high scrutiny and youll get in projects of this downtown and allows us to make sure the Design Excellence is maintained the Public Benefits youll hear in a moment are will exceed under current zion and the under current zoning were po to Pay Attention to the telephone pens onsite it is important to recognize the change in the stone and the increased density allows us to increase the Affordable Housing numbers on the site next item i want to mention in relationship to the central selma the project predates the work on the central selma but absolutely supports the goals and includes transit orientation and Development Impacts fees and in kind improvements o improvements it is consistent with the dowels of that plan and there is very little consistency within to those documents obviously the project adds office and retail space for the employment because of the city and boosters the downtown and a moment when the Office Building is reaching the capacity and the open space will provide is a very steven open space and there are large enough spaces and available to both yours of the project itself so for those reasons the Planning Departments and Planning Department staff has supported that project and the Commission Voted recently to do that id like to introduce kevin the project manager and pub thank kevin hes no longer with the department but as alleged to come back and make his as you thank you during that time im kevin guy good morning the in a nut shell are the legislative components associated with the project this the general plan and the planning code and the Development Agreement

incorporation of the child facilities that concludes my presentation. Laura will presents an overview and the overview site and Design Principles for the project thank you. Thank you very much i think we have a presentation . Hello, im laura with the site lab lets see. The slide. Ohoh there we go. Thank you. So this project was begun in 2008, and ive been fortunate enough to work on it since 2009 in that time weve had one hundred 86 Community Meetings and tours the first Community Meeting started in 2009 and the first time that is masking and design was a shop to the public in 2011 just in advance of filing the e e a its been a collaborative process with the stay Planning Department and the mta and the office of economic Workforce Development as well as the stakeholders weve spent 78 years understanding what can happen on the site and meet all the goals with the stakeholders and i would say through the iterations of seven years the item before you they have been four focused areas that create a phenomenal open space that really nufl and prioritizing the alleyways of the transit location through a balance mixed use program. As john mentions it is a really unique site particularly in this kind of location of downtown it is four acres with half that serve as parking lot no residential units and retails one small could have shop in terms of the context and the future of this part of San Francisco it facilitates e fits into the overall city plans the height peeking with the transbay tore and tapering down this project in and of itself creates part of the transition if the downtown to anymore western selma we imploded into the project that transition we literally will i he devout half the site to the new construction this site is also interesting in that is it is location of converge of many different neighborhoods and area plans this means that this project it needs to perform to align with those goals and embody its roles at a crossroads that is part of what drove the project from the financing we looked at what it means to develop a project that used the downtown femur forum and the surrounding context to the west so the variety and grain and mixed use and as you can see immediately around the city of the Continental Hotel and the streets. In terms of the explaining we gun into the Mission Street coordinator and their embedded with the Historic Buildings they seem to fadeout and not as much open space we were interested to build off of that around the old mint specifically we first started with the society to protect the chronicle building and protect the alley pattern and build off the chronicle building and the old mint and create actions that turn the alleyways into pedestrian assessable areas with the public realm surrounding those Historic Buildings to create that network of open spaces through the site then when it comes to shaping them to the site there are a couple of drivers first from the unprospective we wanted to locate the largest buildings vanity to the largely street 6th street and Howard Street the site allows a contribution from the downtown to the western selma scale at the same time, we also were managing and refinancing to make sure that we were responding to all the climate conditions and improving wind conditions in the area and maximizing the daylight on the open spaces we came to the proposal that was analyzed in the eir that you see here as a result we got quite a bit of feedback through the strerldz including groups like hi coand that we heard a consistent threesome the desire for the element in ceqa and less density and space we studied the different ways to respond to this we look at option that reduced height and options that removed the City Building in the end that reflect what is the revised project as you can see the middle building is removed allowing us to maintain the line of the Historic Building and double the. speaking chinese. on the ground there is an emphasis on the ground and is connections between the public elevator that will be at to the chronicle building and the access to the rooftop added to the project since that time was also the emphasis on Affordable Housing in particular being able to dedicate a parcel that is two doors down for senior hours and thats been established for the development through the Mayors Office of housing. So as i mentioned the site is 50 over 50 percent down zone, if you will, to basically store which the open space and to map to the Historic Building so that those are guaranteed to be retained and up zoned for the new building but creating the public realm is not just about the open space but the evergreen for the d4d john mentioned we have a number of controllers beyond what is standard in the planning code around the building empties and the storefront design as well as the uses that were mentioned altogether then they create a system that feeds the alleyway and the circulation and the perimeters streets and part of citys worked with cast the nonprofit the arts strabltion to steward the Malcolm Heinicke in a in a dumpster building a place for nonprofits to be used for the open spaces as a platform sblgz the building in its current state and here you see that believe and the open space as we envision it how this project comes together where the Mission Street residential reflect the ideas of text it is your articulation and this is something the details is in the d4d added to the project as well as the pedestrians only north part that links with the pedestrian from Mission Street into the central open space and natoma that seen improvements in the craft of new and old with the residential buildings the hi rise the residential that framed the chronicle tower and the increased articulation as well as the city and reconciling im sorry the city and project reconciling here the New Buildings with the enter continental from potrero and from seep i 80 looking at if downtown and particularly this project as part of sud and a 4 acre planning effort was able to bridge the downtown form to the bridging down to the lower rise of the context. So ill leave you with those 4 principles and im available to answer any questions thank you. Ill hand it over to ann. Thank you. Good afternoon madam chair and anybodys ill the project sponsor in the department of Workforce Development ill walk through as proved by the Planning Commission on october 17th in the 6 weeks intentions or since the new york city the city has evolved as recommendations with other city commissions and ongoing advocacy input and further negotiation with those boards and members the committees. Were aware the Planning Commission generated a feedback for the past 6 weeks forking for the family to consider the recommendation and identify opportunities and more or less importantly worked collaboratively to extend our partnership thank you to the forest city and work with the city for a robust package to the committee the development is a legally biden contract between the city and developer for the term of da which in this case is 15 years theyll negotiate the physical and financial benefits that the developer will not otherwise be required to meet once the board of supervisors hsa have greeted telling then the 5 m protector, llc should sell one or more the parcels all the entitlements conditions and controls and obligates run with the lands any developer taking on the ownership take on the physical and benefits responsibility and obligations of the approved project if more any reason the 5m, llc or another developer that takes control of the site and want to make adjustment for the agreement theyll be required to reappear in front of the Planning Commission followed by the board of supervisors to ask for changes in terms of any changes to the development the d4d or sud that are not consistent with the approved project will be required to start the process over in your packet exhibit d provides a breakdown of the developers responsibility by building each building will pay all the impact fees and the
