Transcripts For SFGTV Police Commission 20240712

Equity review this project has been delayed to undergo reviews for five years now and im concerned that the equity impact of those delays is not even being considered at all because every day that this project gets delayed and more housing is not filled and these 1 billion in Community Benefits is not paid to the city, its a day that people will not live with shelter and the city will face a budget crunch. Furthermore, i want to ask the board of supervisors as we look through racist planning, why i havent seen proposal to up said the west side westportal Saint Francis wood, these are white and exclusionary neighborhoods with Single Family zoning right next to money munitations that e you in the train in 15 minutes. As we look a lot i support the removing the central free and it should be a part of this broader shift towards equity and planning and zoning. Thank you. You will be notified you have been unmuted and you may begin your comments. Caller hell oh i would like to express my support for the proposed hub rezoning for the 98 franklin street development. I have been a San Francisco resident and worker for about 21 years and i also own a Small Business in the city, a local business enterprise. Im also the children born and raised in San Francisco and all three are attending primary and middle school at french american international. I think this will provide Affordable Housing as well as more school mixed use income in a trance see enter oriented area its what the city needs. Again i give my support. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker, please. Youll have two minutes. My name is an gel i caal geld im calling in support of the amended hub area plan being proposed by supervisor preston. Our coalition is supportive of approvalling this phase 1 area plan which is a narrow area plan that moves forward three key sites van ness and 98 franklin streets. Approving these three sites does not mean the over all hub plan is go ahead to go. The hub area plan over lays communities living in d5, d9 and d6 there are still a lot of analysis that need to be done to ensure we have an equitable plan to mitigate the massive negative impact of this area plan and having the Planning Department examine the potential Socioeconomic Impact of the proposed development on our low income and working plans and particularly residents living in the central city is the right step forward to uphold the commitment to make a Commission Resolution number 20738. Its nice to hear your city staff acknowledging the equity assessment, its a step backwards to approve a whole area plan and go back later to incorporate what the consultants identified with Community Groups. This kind of backward steps is snowball effect. Negative i have total tax break all over again in eastern neighborhoods and we need to not only address the housing crisis which Market Rate Development has not helped. About what we need is a real equity plan that will ensure that all of our existing communities will continue to live, thrive and i ask you support the proposed amended area plan that our essential City Coalition worked to achieve. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker, please. You will be notified that youve been unmuted and you may begin. Good afternoon, supervisors peskin, safai and preston. This is anna tay sha district 8 member of San Francisco Tenants Union and central citys coalition. The central citys coalition advocates for adoption of a phased approach to development in the hub area plan that provides for approval of the three Key Development rights, situated in the plan, that has been submitted and are in the process of a project approval, namely 10 south van ness and 98 franklin. The three projects proposed for approval has met with the community over the last several months of Community Process was followed. Developers came to the table and agreed to confer sufficient Community Benefits to these developed in the hub area plan. These Community Benefits go above and beyond what is required and help mitigate the negative impacts posed by the developments. Other projects in the area plan could be considered in the future when the framework of a race and social equity assessment thats in the process of development by the central City Coalition is completed. The framework will be the basis for a race and social equity study that advises modifications to the hub area plan. And implemented to mitigate potential harms to tenants, businesses, at risk of displacement, harm to vulnerable low income, working class and people of color. I ask you to move the amended hub area plan that our central City Coalition has worked to achieve forward as Committee Report to the full board. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker, please. Caller good afternoon, supervisors. My name is Jason Henderson. I am a cochair of the market in Octavia Community Advisory Committee and chair of Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association transportation and planning committee. Speaking for myself i support the phased approach and its creative and its needed. Dont forget that much of the eastern side of of district five is rentcontrolled tenants who are baring the burden of regional traffic, incredible amounts of traffic. So, with this post pandemic environment that the urban realm plan is not sufficient. We need to have wider sidewalks and bike lanes that provide northsouth access between the mission and the civic center and western edition. We cant just let this become privatized mobility with ubers and lyft and ecommerce saturating this area. We can reduce the parking and i would urge an interim parking control while the planning process Racial Equity analysis is underway and keep it as it is. 25. Go to the interim control we did in 2017. Extend car free market to goff because you will be seeing a lot of vehicles converging on 12th street and thats not good. And lastly, i think accelerating freeway removal is critical because we need housing and that is suitable land for plentiful housing and open space. So, im pleased to see that that is thank you for your comments. You have two minutes to speak. You will be notified you have been unmuted and you may begin. Caller hello. Hi, thank you. Good afternoon, board of supervisors. My name is claire and i am a member of so many cam and i am here today as a long time district 6 resident. I was born and raised in the tenderloin and my family moved here from the philippines after world war ii and they live in the neighborhood today and weve been struggle to go stay since. Im calling in for representation of phasing in the hub area plan except for the inaudible site. Until a thorough racial analysis is complete and i want to let it be known this is not Anti Development but creating a Community Process. A Community Planning process. That puts equity in the forefront of land use making decisions because we have seen how past plans like the twitter tax breaks and eastern neighborhoods plan have failed black and brown workingclass communities. If we do it correctly a racial and social Equity Analysis can be an effective tool how assess the development will impact the tenderloin. Planning is subject to the inaudible and currently and in this process and when we talk about inaudible neighborhoods, we need to address up zoning for violent and harmful acts and it should be a requirement to conduct a Racial Equity study to see how it will impact brack black and brown communities and the same way that Environmental Impact reports are required for any projects. This moment is our opportunity to hold this city accountable for correcting racist planning policies of the past and this is more than just housing its about equity and having a feet at the table and our folks staying and see a future here. Thank you. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. You have two minutes and you will be notified youve been unmuted. Caller hello, inaudible . Can you hear me . Yes, go ahead. Caller hi name is martin and im calling from you district 5. So, i want to center the discussion here on the delay and all the Infrastructure Improvements that are part of the hub package. Were talking about a billion dollars of street and infrastructure safety improvements. I do support a Racial Equity study as a ex immigrant member of this community and a tenant myself i understood the need for that, however, i believe that Racial Equity has to be centered on street improvements and because street violence including car crashes, and other collisions that occur on our streets, especially in the hub area, do impact people of color more than any other groups. So, i do support, for example, tearing down the freeway and building Affordable Housing there however i think if this plan is being delayed in order to stop the growth in this area, i want to remind folks na the area already is accepted for high density and highrise development and stopping this plan would stop the street improvements and the transit improvements and stop the street scape improvements so ultimately the decision has to be how do we exceed the project goals and not how do we stop this up zoning because the up zoning will improve the lives of everything in this city if we do invest the Community Benefits into the street improvements that are part of the plan currently. Im ok as long as it is not a delay indefinitely. The central freeway being removed should be part of this plan, thank you. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. You will have two minutes to speak. Good afternoon, supervisors, my name is theo and im a renter in San Francisco and i share of San Francisco and i want to call in on behalf to support these three planned projects in the hub and looking forward to moving quickly forward with the wrest. After the equity study. We absolutely need more housing and we node more housing of every income level. Its easy to say lets not move during covid, lets pump the breaks or slow down, but who needs places to raise our families, we need this housing now. On the equity side, i want to ask why are we only talking about projects in large being built in soma and the mission. Supervisor preston, we live a couple blocks from each other and i want to know the wealthy part of district 5 places like alamo square, i live in an Apartment Building in this area built in the 1920s but we dont build those and why not . Isnt that the equity view is that we should be building more housing on the western parts of the city and central parts of the city not just move all that development into soma and the mission. Lets get more housing built. Lets do it in our neighborhoods. And i ask supervisor preston to show us you can say yes to housing and demolish the ways to zoning we only allow Apartment Buildings in soma and the mission. District five say great neighborhood to live in and we can have a lot more neighbors living here. So, please, you know, show this and take leadership and up zone the west side of the city. Theres no reason why our zoning maps should map our old red lining maps. Its a clear racist legacy and we should undue that. Thank you and please move forward with these three projects. Thank you for your comments. Again, members of the public who wish to provide Public Comment can call into 451 6550001. The meeting i. D. Is 1469224815. Press pound and pound again. If you have not done so, please press star 3 to lineup to speak. You have raised your hand. Just wait until the system indicates you have been unmuted and you may begin your comments. Next speaker, please. Caller good afternoon, supervisor. I am with some can. Its a member of the central City Coalition is ensuring we have more equitable San Francisco that will project and enhance the ability for our working class communities of colors to continue to exist, live and work within the spaces that our greatest and maintain this this city and im calling in for the proposed by supervisor preston and our coalition is supportive of approving this phase 1 hub and area planning which is now a narrow area one that moves forward and inaudible . We dont agree the city approving the whole entire hub plan without first looking at race and equity impacts. Its crucial that the rate and equity assessment is done before we pine for phase 2 of the hub area. And we are passing that will help sent prevent the harm to working class communities. Again, i ask that we support proposed the amended area that our central City Coalition has worked to achieve. Thank you. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. You may begin your communities. Caller hello. May i proceed. Yes, maam. Caller thank you, maam. I want to provide i am inaudible . I am a member of the filipino community. Operations. And calling in the support of inaudible for the phasing in the hub area plans except for the three inaudible until the analysis is complete. This recommendation is not untied development. Rather, it is the Community Planning process needed to strengthen the equity first framework to be housing for all. Its social equity report. Some can debate use as an effective tool and assess how new development this is the hub plan area impacts the stock market and tenderloin. We have given inequity and seen how they turn neighborhood plans away from the communities. Which post negative made by market rates development and to low income and working class and color and diversity. It is our opportunity to hall the ct and some for accountable for connecting racist running policies. Having homes is more than just Affordable Housing. Having a home is providing the most population and over all benefits from neighborhoods planning policies and that they have an agreed able seat at the table. I strongly took fourth your time has expired. Thank you, maam. Good afternoon, supervisor, my name is lorenzo with the tenderloin congress a member of the central civic coalition. The reason i called is to express our support for the amended market and octavia area map. Being proposed by supervisor preston. Its kong convinced its important to look at equity to ensure the question of equity is suck stan shalsubstantially add. It also includes the approval of the three Key Development sites at 10 south van ness. The developer of this street projects have worked with the communities to provide substantial Community Benefits that will have mitigate their negative impact. The tenderloin people believe in the importance of Community Planning process to strengthen and the equity first framework to build housing for all san franciscans. We believe theres no way to be con student so we strongly support the proposed amended area plans. We believe this is the right thing to do and under the principles of inclusion, equity and democracy. Thank you so much. Thank you, next speaker, please. You have two minutes. Yes, hi. Good afternoon. This is Tracy Rosenberg and im from Media Alliance and were a constituent group with united to save the miss. Im calling in in support of the phased in hub plan and requesting a comprehensive race and social equity assessment before the entire hub plan is adopted. The eastern neighborhoods plan has been deeply problematic as we all know. Weve been seeing the bad effects for years and its important that we go forward in a different and better fashion. We need an inclusion i have planning process with equity at the forefront and impacted community have to be at the table. We cant keep repeating mistakes that have gotten us to our current place with massive displacement and probably, i believe, we in an article as the most general fied city in the country. As a legacy nonprofit organizations, we were founded here in san in 1976 and we never intended to be anywhere else but in 2005, we had to leave this city because we couldnt pay the rent. And i was only lucky and happy that we were able to come back in 2015 and nothing to the nonprofit. Development. But we were lucky and most of Community Groups and members of the and the San Francisco we came back to is not the San Francisco that we left. So, lets stop here is look at doing things in a different and report and analysis. Thank you for your comments. We have 24 listeners and 12 in cue. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon supervisors. Kelly hill with united to save the mission and part of the central citys coalition. Im calling in hub plan being proposed by supervisor preston.
