And have recognized the densities and that the adjoining counties to north and south with a lot of work to do. I think it would be also good to focus this conversation regionally through the terms and lower communities of color and we should have that in an apples to apples way. I was part of the movement to when supervisor kim threatened to annex a nearby city that was unwilling to increase the housing density on vacant land, so lets expand that conversation. So supervisor mar, and i really appreciate everything that you have, and please any closing comments for you, supervisor mar. And what is your will . Thank you so much, chair peskin and supervisor preston for your comments and engagement in this really important discussion. There is a number of very important items to get to so i will keep the closing comments very short. I did want to summarize that my goal today was emphasize the importance of data and who is the housing for and are we prioritizing and addressing the Housing Ne
In the city and county department will also embrace this. So thankfully the balboa reservoir project heard us loud and clear from the Community Members and will be a reflection of the desire to retain, attract and nurture the next generation of san franciscans. The project will have two and three bedroom units and other amenities including open space play areas a child care facility and indoor and outdoor common areas for events. Overall i believe the project is thoughtful and includes many of the elements and that the community is able to see if two acre park that will be central to the project and pedestrian walkways and bike lanes connecting the neighborhoods to ocean avenue corridor. Complimentary design to reflect the existing neighborhoods and to promote existing businesses and with the commercial district and we are work on fine details of the neighborhood and Community Stakeholders to improve the project further and to have clarity. And the Transportation Management plans and m
Our overall Housing Production targets. We have struggled in the past coming in with less than half of this number of affordable units as well as lower level of production of housing overall. I wanted to add that we did not exam whether these targets were the perfect targets or acknowledging we have struggled to meet these targets in the past. We wanted to look at policy and investment to allow us to meet these at minimum and leave that discussion open to the public and policymakers about whether different targets should be pursued in the future. One of the key policy issues we explored was where new housing would be added and what it would look like. Initial analysis showed that we do need to add additional capacity for housing to be able to sustain the level of production at 5,000 units over the 30 year timeframe. What this map that you are looking at shows is our past reductions since 2005 in pink. The pipeline is shown in hollow circles. It is on the east side around downtown and a
And again, its at the early stages but i did see the announcement and would very much like that to be included in future updates. Thank you. Thank you. Are there any members of the public who would like to comment on this item . Chair, there is no Public Comment. Ok, Public Comment is closed and there is no action to be taken and so we can move on to the next item. Item 6, allocate 11,230,724 in sale tax funds and 1,043,89, 1,043,898 and double a Registration Fee fund with conditions. This is an action item. Miss leport. Good morning. Chair, are you able to see my slides . Yes, we are. Super. So the first of the three requests presented today is for the annual funding that the sale tax Program Provides to the paraprogram and weve been supporting this Program Since 2004 and there are a suite of services that mta offers as part of the Paratransit Program, most of which are still operating, of course, with declining ridership or lower ridership to the tune of 70 to 80 overall. Over the la
We do as a city, as you all know, have an obligation for affirmatively fair housing. This developers have bottom lines to deliver for investors. They can be pressured to provide affordable minutes to make concessions regarding labor practices. At the end of the day it is this balance and this discussion that is at the heart of whether we are furthering fair housing or not. When we are having the neighborhood around 80 of the units unaffordable to working class units disproportionatesly available to white folks. We are taking steps backwards. I appreciate your work on this. We are in a point of urgency on so many fronts. Thank you for your time put into this. I appreciate it. This is one of the most robust discussions i have had and i want to thank Planning Department staff for signaling a new direction. Thank you, miriam and your colleagues. I want to say a couple things. One of them is a policy desire. I think it is low hanging fruit. I mentioned it earlier. Historically when we wante
