Involved too. We have 100 union jobs across the board were in full support of the height increase. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. Good afternoon my name is paul weber and im not representing anybody but myself today. Im listening to the discussion of the value of the property and some call it subsidy and that is sort of key to the whole project. It seems to be a debate among many people about the adequacy or the value specified. Why doesnt the Board Commission its own appraisal you have some time based on another suggestion ill be making and let that appraisal come back to you and let the appraisal show value at 300 x feet versus 400 x feet we can have a appraisal done like that and you all would be satisfied that you are getting fair market value for the property instead of debating it for this long. Basing this on an appraisal thats now 2 years old simply cant be relied upon. Secondly is my understanding that people that were opposed to the proproject thought that they would have access to that and i it is my understanding that this will not be ready until july and i think that the final consideration should be put off until a your final consideration and bu had a chance to review this report. Thank you. Leopard timer dings] thank you. Next speaker please ject it will provide Good Union Jobs for members and residents of San Francisco. The project will provide Affordable Housing. Tinsman has been a good project and labor we look forward to working with them on this project. I think you for this time. Thank you. Next speaker please. Good afternoon my name is tom oconnor i am here with the San Francisco firefighters department. Im here to speak on the general plan amendment. This 7 amendment will lead to more housing and more that the below market rate which we clearly need in our city today. It will give more opportunity for members to live in San Francisco. Tinsman has been very helpful in insisting 1st rate responsibles in getting Affordable Housing. When we talk about firefighters and nurses and teachers and paramedics live in the city people want to stress that its great in case its the big one. But we think the big one is that little emergency like when your mom breaks her hip or a child is choking or someone is creepy down the block and you want to go get your local policeman that is down the street and have them check it out for you. We look forward to working with them in the future thank you next speaker please my name is Tony Rodriguez and i am a San Francisco native resident. We asked that you approve the project. It past because of the 40 availability it will be 156 unit plus the 200 market rate units and both groups are muchneeded in San Francisco. It would also be nice to see some of the work as a buildings project to be able to live in them. That would also be made possible because the developer has also shown that they built their projects with contractors that pay on the advantage of projects they built years ago. The last thing a is i just want to conclude that supervisor kim i do negotiations with my unit and nothing just happens. You cant just say at this just happens you can just say this is going to be a project at 40 hundred and 56 unit. It happens because of negotiations. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. Good afternoon supervisors my name is mike otero. I would like to thank supervisor mickey for honoring the holy sister day home for honoring her for her service to our city. This is unusual climate to characterize these discussions but at the board of supervisors we would not find this apart of these wars. Had the trans bay district has one in the subject a broad consensus on this board and yet, i suppose it was inevitable that neighbors would have concerned about views from the windows. The recently obtained views from their windows would raise steric issues an attempt to preserve those views. I think thats exactly i wish understand the issues being raised by the neighbors. Those you should not be the concern of this board they should never be the concern of this board. Instead, i think we should look at the fact that they have been presented to you that the increased height does allow greater portions of affordability in this project and we ask you to support this project. Tinsman and squire have been a wonderful supporter in San Francisco and they were good with us. So thank you for allowing me to speak. Thank you. Next speaker please good afternoon i am at yemen of the trans bay supervisors committee. We supported the plan amendments with an increase in height and we did so noting several points. 1st the increased height will add a total of 73 units and 44 below market rate affordable units. 2nd the effect on shadows in green cant park is to minimus the higher buildings fit in with the surrounding neighborhood. There many taller buildings with 4 to 500 feet and above 1 nearby blocks. When the original transba redevelopment plan was developed thaty done even the 300 foot height seemed bold for the site with a Subsequent Development what seemed bold then seems modest now. Next point. The Additional Units strengthened the transient orienting character of the project. Finally, the additional height enhances the elegant design that the building that we have from game studio. I as the cac urge you to approve the plan amendment and the height increase thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. Hello my name is james orzo im a Food Service Worker in the Development Near the high rise and i am here in support of this ordinance and anything that can be done to increase Affordable Housing in this neighborhood would be much need to cut down on the necessary time and money and waste of expenditures by everybody commuting back and forth work for the type of workers that work in my industry. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. Hello supervisors my name is davei also work at the high dive restaurant. It would also be nice to see these people be part of this community. Im for this amendment and i urge you to approve this please thank you, next speaker please im in favor of the hundred foot increase for the below market value. Good afternoon my name is lauren post i am vice chair of the trans bay Advisory Committee and i am boardd of directors in the Community Benefit district i want to assure you supervisor cohn it was a expensive public process in the committee and i myself did attend one of those Community Meetings and it was very well attended maybe 100 people and i understand that the oci staff at the other Community Meeting was equally well attended. One thing that hasnt been emphasized is what this building will specifically due to the skyline and how beautiful it will be it will be a marquee building on the skyland im looking forward to viewing it out the windows of my home when it goes up because unfortunately i wont be able to because my building will be blocked by building under construction far higher than this one but that is okay because i live in a high right district and would be disingenuous of me to complain about proving if i live in a highrise. This is a vertical neighborhood. It is San Franciscos most vertical neighborhood and the only way to really get more housing in the city of course is to go vertical. We were not going to have any singlefamily homes. I would urge you to support the increase to 40 of availability and for Something Else it might seem boring but [timer dings] i know that sounds boring but ho a affordability is important. Please support the height increase. Thank you. Thank you next speaker please. Hello i am in favor of the development of 1400 mission a few months ago. They are also diverse. They represent people that are photographers technicians architects they are diverse in age and family size and i have met neighbors from mexico in vietnam and greece and prices in San Francisco that are through the roof people in middleclass jobs cant afford to live here but now being able to afford housing in San Francisco will be able to attribute more to the city that i love i have more time to volunteer at a museum as well as the ymca while we support the community school. I also can walk which is really overcrowded in these bay. San francisco is an desperate need for Affordable Housing. This is a wonderful solution to bringing Diverse People and Service Workers and entrepreneurs to the city so please approve it. Thank you. Next speaker please my name is david my wife and i had a chance to move to one of the below market rate developments the previous speaker already covered all of the logistics and the National Analysis and all that stuff for sure there must be some issues but i believe they are all manageable and when were talking about families we must look beyond the numbers. Is 44 more Affordable Housing units. That means 44 more families that have the chance to live in the city and grew up with their kids here and make San Francisco their home. Thank you so much. Thank you. Speaker please. Good afternoon everyone my name is angie do amongst im 40 years of age in a single mother of 2 Harrison Keira 3 years ago i ended my 14 year marriage it wasnt working out. The fastest way to get out of it was to move with my 80yearold grandmother in a studio in on joan our neighborhood is full of life in spite of peoples miss misconception family that are thriving here i came here in 1995 before my son was born. 3 years ago i came back to the tenderloin and fell in love with it. My kids are very involved in the community i knew i had to do something. I heard about the ssmoh. I walked into the Community Center and they walked me through the process and they they help me the application. If it wasnt for them i would probably be lost. And if it wasnt for the Affordable Housing program i wouldve been moved out of the city somewhere where my salary can afford which is about 2 hours east today i stand before you as a living testament of this program and im able to get my kids in the community that theyre willing to get involved in and take them to the school and 100 feet additional is probably it probably doesnt mean anything to you but it is 44 lives that are going to be change. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. I have been in San Francisco since 2007 and i just moved to one of these below the market apartments. It was the only racket stay in the city. And has to be wonderful it is. This building is not only beautiful outside but its gonna make it beautiful on the inside for the people that are going to move there. I dont have to say that we are going to have a catastrophe with housing. We need more of any kind of construction and is not because im in construction but is difficult to find anything. Thank you. Thank you next speaker please. Good afternoon, supervisors and ladies and gentlemen. I very much thank you for the city and supervisors because i got a below market rate unit and the others are supporting this and i will let you know that 300 feet is already approved i think 40 is doable for affordable i think we need to support that because most families came in the city and they spend in the city. It is actually San Francisco is more than the city. Right now, i was talking to someone and in the past 2 years 60,000 families moved out of San Francisco and right now theres more dogs and families. I think Affordable Housing will keep more people here. I think we need to support this particular city more and i think that theres more people here and out in the city will spend more in the city. Thank you. Thank you next speaker please i had the honor of giving keys of previous speakers today. It definitely makes my day when im able to do that. Id also like to read a letter from a homeowner that is not able to be here today as a San Francisco resident who greatly benefited from the bmr home program i would like to emphasize the importance of Affordable Housing for fostering continuing diversity and community and our city. Affordable housing allows people to have a place that people can call their own and grow within their means. This eliminates any daily stressors so that we can focus on being productive members in society. We are the teachers, policemen, researchers, and nonprofit workers of the city. Affordable housing allows us to flourish here in our professions and our personal lives. Their boundless benefits to the city is a hole. I regrettably cannot speak in person at the board of supervisors meeting but i do offer my support for the block 1 project. Im in the favor of the height increase in adding the additional 100 feet. This will add more Affordable Housing and 44 units and 40 designated Affordable Housing to San Francisco. The Mayors Office of housing had Great Strides in addressing this in San Francisco. Thank you for that. This would be part of this incremental push towards the right direction. Thank you for your time i hope this comes to fruition. Thank you for your time. Thank you. Next speaker please good afternoon my name is Monica Wilson i am the Program Director of c we a babybased program created to divide provide internship opportunities for young adults for Construction Development and engagement. By way of background i wanted to let you know that for the last 18 months i have been working with tinsman and squire on their Small BusinessEnterprise Program including 2 components professional Service Procurement and the sce training program. In both instances not only did they design and implement these programs successfully but the results far exceed the Program Requirements and goals with powerful, Economic Impacts for San Francisco lbs for internships over the summer. This program is designed for grassroots and communitybased outreach. And this will incorporate Innovative Strategies to maximize participation opportunities. What does this deliver . The impacts are both measurable and strong . On the sbe professional service they exceeded the Program Requirement of 15 and delivered almost 90. They had strong participation in women owned businesses and seniors and lb gt programs. They have ultimately 8 internship divisions to allow the design team to create a trans bay experience for the adults [timer dings thank you. Next speaker please. [indecipherable] [timer dings] [timer dings] thank you speaker please good afternoon my name is brand demand. I have lived here it in 20 years. I am here because i participated along with a lot of other people in the drafting and the preparation of the original transbay redevelopment plan. That plan was a result of a great deal of time and effort by a number of people and they came up with a plan that was integrated and would be beneficial to the neighborhood. I do not believe that any thing has been presented to you today that could be justified at this point of changing that plan. I am here to urge you to not proceed with the proposed amendments until such time as there has been a supplemental eir made available to the public so the public has the opportunity to review and comment upon that supplemental eir. The original eir goes back to 2004. 12 years ago. As we all know theres been a great number of changes in the neighborhood since that time. [timer dings] intel the public is equated with what the finances are and have an opportunity to review those figures the board should notmove forward with this. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please this is a wonderful opportunity for members. Not only to work but also to live in the units they are built in downtown San Francisco. Tinsman has been a great person work with so far we look forward to working with them on this contain project. That is about it. Working together there are some changes that we need to do and some benefits but but i ask that you support this. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker please. Good afternoon pres. And supervisors i represent over 3200 carpenters here in San Francisco. Every day the carpenters are fighting for housing. Lately that seems like we have evened up the ante. What this project does is provide homes for 73 more families and 44 those families will be below market rateit also provides jobs for our carpenters and for our apprentices and afuture. We urge you to support this job we are a great friend of 22 and we urge your support. Thank you. Thank you next speaker please. Good afternoon my name is Annie Campbell im a representative that she workers 114. 29
