The corporation was exonerated in the late 7. 70s. We had subcommittees on each development that came in that we had one for childcare, one for parks and rec, development and everything. So the training programmes we had with the college and also with model cities, we trained people in our community for each phase of the projects that were coming into Hunters Point. Where there was business, we had a Business Programme to train people with businesses. It went through the hunter Point College which was the first campus college. Every college we started through model cities, we started a minister witmission with hiringl of the others. But for those familiar will the mission, talk with i forgot the directors name now don markham . No, he was the director of the model cities. They could link up with the colleges out there, training with childcare. We had over 40 people through the Childcare Programme and each were able to buy homes, so if we want people to stay in our community, we need to train them in our community. We have College Track. We have Philip Randolph and they train people for different aspects of things but we were neeneed tomake sure they are pry managers. Thats the last comment well be doing. Make sure that happens withs lenar and College Track and thank you very much. I talk fast and my mind is moving. I want to make things are happening in our community for the people in our community. Appreciate all your work and being a watchdog, thank you. Madam secretary, the next item. The next order is item 7, report of the chair. Madam chair [ laughter ] item 8, 8a, 2800as 2800 arels walking drive for a multiple Family Development including 19 Public Housing replacement units, affordable at 50 medium income and 11 Housing Units which are affordable at 60 media income at Hunters Point shipyard and discussion. Madam director. Thank you, madam secretary, through the chair. Theres a memo in your package. As you know, this project was phase 4 and completed the end of this year ill bring up jeff to give highlights of this one. I think what was remarkable about this is that we had the beholders apply which means all of the outreach has been working but not all. Its still good news. Good afternoon. Jeff wyatt, Housing Programme manager. The director said, the report is in your packet and phase 4, it has 31 units, 19 of the units were for Public Housing, relocateees from alice. With the marketing in this project, everybody has been moved over into a new unit from the old and thats quite a milestone. And then the other 11 units in the 31 were lottery units and those were one and two units. The larger units were right sized for the folks moving over from alice. For the preferences, first were the folks that had moved away from alice, but didnt have he had previously moved away and so they had the opportunity to come back into a tax credit unit. So four households were occupied and then, the remaining was the next preference and there were seven households there and we have theres a lot of children that came over so its an indication, a lot of families with kids, which is great news. And really kind of the highlights and im happy to have any more discussion or take question. Oh, i will mention the 11 cot holders who applied, they fell out for a variety of reasons, two ended up getting housed in an inclusionary unit and they found another option. There was one household. He wanted a threebedroom and we didnt have any available at this phase and we had somebody who was overincome and then some, luke, three folks said that they were interested in just continuing to look at other opportunities. Thank you. We have to do speaker cards first. No speaker cards and no one here to speak. Closing Public Comment and well turn to my fellow commissioners. Vice chair. Thank you, chair. You think you answered one of my questions but ill ask it again or mask it. So the displaced tenant preference is third in line for preferences on this . Thats correct. So that would explain why you could have out well, since the resident and worker reference, lets just call it the San Francisco worker reference would result in someone from outside of San Francisco getting a preference to come into this development. In that preference, thats correct. I will mention the rent burdened preference is not geographic so somebody could come in from outside of the city. Is that usually the way it works, the rent burden is ahead of the displaced tenant . The displaced tenants are San Francisco ans displaced by fire. That was later after we established the preferences in the area and we added that on after the rent burden reference, the alice resident preference and other cop folks. So, then, thats great. Now i understand it. And then the other thing to highlight, 2 of the applications, even though there were a lot of applications, but two came in paper. Dahlia, we worked very hard, if you remember, push, push, push and folks are embracing dahlia is the way to go. Theres a lot of assistance with people unti dahlia. I remember early on in the commission, when the commission was established, im sure it was Alice Griffith but i may be wrong, but there was one of our projects or meetings, we had folks afraid of moving out of, basically, their housing, even though they had a right of return because they were worried they would not be able to return. To i wani want to say its alicf filgriffith. Im just trying to complete the story in my mind because the commission was worried that folks would not be able to return, because there was a fear expressed about their ability to return for a variety of reasons. So they were clinging on to their old decrapit housing because they didnt want it to come back to the neighborhood or San Francisco. My question is, did it return. There were a lot moving. In the end, a few folks were attached to their anatomie unitt took a lot if they had a lot stuff in their apartment. Thats great news. Thats a huge success. I have one more question and i know im brow beating the situation but this being such a success, just seeing that we still only got 11 applications out of 4,000 being cop, are there any plans to cast the ar net to the members who came back in our reports who hadnt been reached out to and to get them into the fold and into the same pipeline into getting on dahlia. Is there a plan for doing that . Werwere continue doing eary outreach to be aware of early opportunity. Theyre now in the dhalia system so when it looks appealing to them, they are made aware of it multiple times andthy have the e opportunity to apply. So thats our net. And that might not be satisfying. Were always open to more ideas because during the annual report presentation, if you look at the results over the last five areas, weve increased the cop applicants, so we feel like were doing a lot. Thithe displacement happened ma, many years ago and we are doing, we think, getting as many cop holders housed as possible and there is a finite members who are out there. So thats not to say were making were continuing to redouble our efforts for each project when cop holders come up. And whenever we have a developer Selection Process for a project, we have cop outreach and results and performance top of mind. Thats something we look at and score on. You guys are doing a lot of off mazinamazing oneonone and i ws asking outside of that, cop not identified directly. As know, we had the 1718 and well have 1819 and i know you had gimp feedback o given feedbt additional outreach we had to do. Well come back to you. Madam secretary, call the next item. Commissioners question and matters . Any questions . No. The next item. The next order is item 10, closed second and the next order of business is adjournment. Mr. Chair. A motion to adjourn. I move that the meeting be adjourned. Commissioner scott, anybody second . I second the motion. Great, we have a first and second and thank you so much. The meeting is concluded at 2 18. Thank you. So good morning and welcome. Im jack gardner and president of the John Stewart Company. On behalf of our related partners in california, San Francisco housing corporation, and ridgepoint nonprofit housing corporation, its my great pleasure to welcome you to the grand reopening of Hunters Point west and westbrook. Give it up. [ applause ]. Hunters point eastwest in westbrook are two of the citys rental assistance demonstration projects. The Overall Program consisted of transferring 29 of the Housing Authority profits to local nonprofit and private housing organizations for recapitalization, renovation, and private management. More detailed information is available if youre interested. This mammoth Citywide Program which included almost 3500 units of Affordable Housing throughout San Francisco required the collaboration of a host of public agencies, developers, consultants, contractors, funders, and, most importantly, the residents of Hunters Point eastwest and westbrook themselves. The program demonstrates the citys commitment to leaving none of its residents behind and we are very proud to have been part of it. None of this would have been possible without the vision and leadership of our local elected and appointed officials, many of whom are here today and well do some shoutouts a little bit later. Thank you for celebrating with us. Lets get started. It gives me special pleasure to introduce our first speaker. Ill tease you a little bit here, see if you can think about who that would be. Shes a native san franciscan. A former Redevelopment Agency and Fire Department commissioner. Former executive director of the africanamerican art and culture complex in the western addition. President of the board of supervisors. You might be getting it. Presently our current and future mayor. So a steadfast champion of Affordable Housing, community empowerment, and the creation of a more just and equitable San Francisco for all. Great pleasure to bring to the stage our very own mayor london breed. Mayor. [ cheering and applause ]. Mayor breed thank you. Hello, everyone. I am really excited to be here today because this is a long time coming. When we first set out on a path to just reenvision Public Housing throughout San Francisco, it wasnt easy. I remember when i first became a member of the board of supervisors and i went to our mayor ed lee and talked about our priorities, i made it clear that Public Housing was my number one priority. He supported those efforts. In fact, i grew up in plaza east in the western edition, where i lived in Public Housing for over 20 years of my life. Those conditions were very challenging. It wasnt just sadly the poverty and the violence that existed in my neighborhood. It was also the actual physical conditions of where i lived. The mold, the bathroom that basically had a number of challenges. We never even had a shower in the Public Housing unit that i lived in. The roaches, the lack of support that we got from our facilities crew to actually make the kinds of repairs where we could live in a place that was safe and live in a place that was the way that it should be for any resident of this amazing city. It was important to me that we made a change in San Francisco because the same conditions that i lived in are, sadly, some of the same conditions that still exist in Public Housing today. So we set down this course to try and make changes. No, we didnt have the resources completely to basically start all over from scratch, but we did have an opportunity through the r. A. D. Program, the rental assistance demonstration program, to really make investments now so that we can change the conditions of where people live now. That was so important. There were people who were concerned, including the residents who were skeptical about whether or not what happened in the filmore would happen in the bayview Hunters Point community. I too was concerned about that. In fact, the Public Housing development i lived in had 300 units and after it was rebuilt through hope 6 which was a whole other program before hope s. F. , there were only 200 units built. So clearly, everyone was not coming back. Thats why when i first started as a commissioner on the San FranciscoRedevelopment Agency and we set out on our path to try and rebuild double rock and other places, it was important to me that we did it differently than we did in the past, so that residents played a Critical Role in not only deciding what fixtures and windows and how they wanted their community to be, but they remained a part of their communities. So thats exactly what we did. It did require a lot of patience and moving around and a number of things. Yes, again, i know that people were a little uncertain as to whether or not we would get this project done because promises have been made over the years and promises not kept. But today a promise is kept. 439 units of Affordable Housing for people, for families, for this amazing community. Through the r. A. D. Program, we have already been able to rehabilitate more than 3,000 Public Housing units in San Francisco. No longer are we going to treat our residents, who happen to live in Public Housing, differently than we treat everyone else. Thats why this investment is so important. Not only in rehabilitating something as simple as making sure that the windows can open, that the heater is working, that the showers are working, that there isnt opportunity for mold or other things to impact the living conditions, but free wifi. Free wifi for all of the residents here so that folks have access to do job searches, housing searches, or anything else that anyone else could do in our great city. So i am really happy and excited to be here because this is a new day in San Francisco. Part of what my goal is to not only change the physical conditions of our community, but to make sure that we take care of these communities and we take care of each other. Because we are one community, were one San Francisco. Sadly, we have lost so much over the years due to violence, due to hopelessness and frustration. Part of my commitment to communities all over the San Francisco that feel neglected, that feel like theyre forgotten and not necessarily a part of San Francisco is that im coming to your neighborhood. Im coming to make sure that we make the right kinds of investments, that we provide Job Opportunities or opportunities for you to start your own businesses, that we make sure that we are taking care of kids in this community. In fact, our investments in our Public School system has been one thats unprecedented. Over 80 million of investments, including additional teachers stipends so that we can focus on Teacher Retention in schools that serve this community. Making sure when our kids are dealing with trauma, that we have Mental Health experts in our Public Schools. My commitment is to make sure that there are Wellness Centers in every Public School in San Francisco. It starts with our kids. It starts with taking care of each other. It starts with developing a new generation of hope for San Francisco. So this project is so much more than just rehabilitating units. Its really changing a community and making things better now and for the future. It starts with us and were in this together. Were going to get there one step at a time. I want to thank the John Stewart Company, Mayors Office of housing, bank of america, and who else was part of this project . Related. Thank you. It means a lot to have incredible partners. We dont do this work alone. But most importantly, i want to thank the people who live here, who trusted us to make this happen, who work with us every step of the way. It means a lot to have the support and trust of a community in order to get things done. Thats exactly what we were able to accomplish through this amazing project together. So congratulations. This is just the beginning of i know more thats get to come. Thank you. [ applause ]. Thats what im talking about. Mayor, youre so good at that. Youre just flying without notes. Im hanging on to these things for dear life. We do the work, but thats the leadership that gets it done. Thank you also for the 23 mil
