Disapproval the site is right and dpw acted correctly i ask the board to uphold that decision for if this board will let at t to follow the correct s m f order next speaker good evening, everybody im curious stone the executive director of San Francisco beautiful i want to thank the president and staff and public for their times and thank you for your efforts to protect the cities right to dedicate time place and manner of those facilities. San francisco beautiful is interested in protecting San Francisco spaces and we sued San Francisco and at t seeking Environmental Review opposing the category california exception for this reason in specific youll all seen hundreds of protests and doris of appeals. We look forward to hearing the result of the state court on the decision of for our appeal but we look forward to working with at t and the department of public works and the board of supervisors to find a solution to make that process workable.

People we are going to have to do something about this. We see ceqa impede transit investment and transit advances whether its a Shuttle Program or all man or Public Transportation project. We are seeing the California Environmental quality act being used to delay and defeat Public Transit and transportation projects that will lead to cleaner air and will get cars off the road. We should not contribute to that trend with that appeal. This appeal does not have merit. We should address the problems facing our city without pretending with somehow requiring an eir with this Pilot Program is going to do anything to solve our problems. I would be supporting the motion. Supervisor chiu . Thank you. Let me first start by thanking all the members of the public who have stuck around for 7 hours. I want to thank you for your input and comment or mr. Drurey to stand in the case and those who support this appeal. We all know we are in an affordability crisis. The represent is too damn high and we k
The progress, generally that gets a better effect for us so that we can the cases resolved and that takes time to do and because we have a certain, relationship with this particular property own and her we realize that this was what seems to work for her, others dont need this kind of intensity and that is that the problems is that our best Code Enforcement tool and but it is labor intensive, now, the other aspect, in addition to penalties, is going in there and doing the work. Now i dont recommend that in most cases unless there is a hazard and now you are going into the business of being a Property Owner and manager and if you go in and fix the existing buildings and you do it in such a way that there are problems and you expose to the cities and there are liability issues there and we do in limited instances do this if there is a hazard and not necessarily heat or if we are looking at a single heat appliance and not a central system, and as there was in this particular case study an
To base this appeal on the merits that are before us and i do think there are ways in which we can distinguish some of these other potential appeals and i actually think that whats likely to happen here if this appeal is denied as it looks like its going to be, i think that there will be a legal victory for the appellants in court because of the insufficiency of the evidence and the rational that has been presented. And what i would say is that i wholeheartedly agree with what has been said about the issue of tech workers. We could not in anyway demonize tech workers. They are San Francisco residents. What i have in perspective is this, is that i dont think that wanting to work with the Tech Industry means that you completely rollover and give them everything they want or even beyond what they are asking for.

Pilot program and understand that people want to add amendments and the Housing Coalition didnt support adding legislation or worse have them built illegal and please move this legislation forward thank you. Next speaker, please. Hi, good afternoon sprirgz. Im margaret im the cleveland of inhome consumerism we provide home care to 16 hundred seniors and people with disabilities every year. Were supportive of the program with 21 thousand consumers im delighted to speak on the proposed legislation to allow the addition of inlaw units in the castro and hopefully, if its effective into other areas of San Francisco as well. And my voice i want to add were all aware of the crisis of Affordable Housing but what is not discussed a lot in the city of San Francisco but has been this afternoon is the lack of assessable housing for seniors. While much of the Housing Stock in San Francisco is extremely beautifully its not assessable. And its very pricey to bring a house up to make it assessable. Pe
