About 50 of our building is unemployed. As a finance manager, i just want to point out that the landlord investment model hinges on the fact that youll be able to meet your mortgage. So to the landlords talking about recovering represent, youre being heartless in a recovering rent, youre being heartless in a way that im not sure you understand. Fob landlords and investors, financial balance is something that you plan out. Its profitandloss statements. Its real, but its not going to put you out on the street and maybe kill you, especially if youre like one of the black and brown families left in San Francisco. [inaudible] between living in a car or living on a street or moving out to tracy and commuting into the Community Like people that i know. T this is legislation to try to help people through this crisis; this is a step. I just thank you to the board of supervisors and thank you for hearing our plea. Thank you for keeping us safe so we can figure this out together. Thank you very m
Rent, why dont they forego their salaries and house the tenants, instead of making some landlord, old people like me, suffer the burden . Thank you. Clerk thank you for your comments. We have 83 listeners and nine in queue. Next speaker, please. Youll have two minutes to speak. Hello, caller . Next speaker, please . Hello . Clerk oh, hi. Hello. You have two minutes to speak. Hello, caller . Hello . Clerk you have two minutes to speak for Public Comment, maam. Next speaker, please. Can you hear me . Can you hear me . Clerk yes. Im the owner of a rental in San Francisco. I am the first generation who squirrelled away funds for a down payment. I made sure i upheld all of my objections, and i make sure that im up to date on all the rentals and maintain the building in the standard that i would live in, which is a high standard, by the way. When the moratorium on evictions passed, i made sure that i didnt put anyone in a bad way, on account of a tenant not paying their rent. This deferral,
Not paying their rent. This deferral, by the way, did not require any auditable proof or documentation to verify the tenant actually had a need. The tenant was not required to claim their need under penalty of perjury. For these people, this is a freebie, a no brainer. Its an openended delay or forgiveness of rent. As long as im paying all the bills and personally putting in all the efforts to maintain and carry the building, i should have a say in whether i forgive or delay rent payments.

The opposition to this ordinance from landlords we have heard who supposedly oppose eviction demonstrate their lack of integrity to hold their fellow Property Owners accountable to value human life over the finances. I want to make it absolutely clear, the potential life or death situation for these disadvantaged communities is in no way similar to the financial discomfort to the several landlords that we have heard from. Housing is a human right, and i urge you to support this ordinance. Thank you. Clerk thank you for your comments. Next speaker, plea
