Legislation being proposed by the antidisplacement group, i hope all these things happen and they have an effect on the speculation thats happening in our city. I know people have talked about the lack of Affordable Housing. It is avery real problem. I have an idea how we can address that too. I think when we are developing these Community Benefits packages with the developers and with the Tech Companies we need to think about charging them a fee for coming, for doing development and for coming in this city. That could then be paid to the San Francisco land trust so that the land trust can acquire buildings and that those buildings will be Affordable Housing forever. The biggest obstacle the land trust faces is the lack of money to buy buildings. Real estate is very expensive. If we made the developers and these Tech Companies pay, pay for the privilege of being here and for developing here and we put into land trust we could make a lot of housing affordable forever for San Franciscoan
Brackero, i live at 1047 and looking at eviction the day before thanksgiving. I look at this as a state of emergency because the options are nil and to have to move out of the city or out of the state because that is going to be the option for some of us. It is not affordable, oakland is no longer affordable, there have been people we have contacted us saying, hey, if you want to move to richmond and have a livework space, i am an accountant and i am part of the people who have made it desirable for these developers to come in there. I hope this is treated as an emergency, all of us deserve to be here and i appreciate your time and your consideration. Thank you. Thank you, maam. Next speaker, please. Hithere, may name is chris baker and ive lived at 1049 market for 11 years, i want to thank our mayor and the dbi for their help in getting the demolition permit that was used as a justification for the evictions of half of the tenants in our building, to get that permit suspended. That wa
Maybe what happened in the late 90s is because in the late 90s we werent having the buyouts and the threats that are pushing people out. I think if we calculate in the buyouts and the threats we definitely have more evictions than we did back then because a buyout and a threat of an eviction that drives somebody out is an eviction as far as im concerned. Id like to express my support for the legislation thats been proposed, the repeals and reforms of the ellis act, the legislation being proposed by the antidisplacement group, i hope all these things happen and they have an effect on the speculation thats happening in our city.

Two ladies live on goth street. Ive been really lucky, my housing is secure, i cant be evicted, i dont plan on being evicted from that below market rate building. My concern is so many of my friends, so many of the people i have worked with over the years are so fearful right now that it seems like a state of emergency should be declared around housing. There seems like there have been so many give aways for developers. Im a real fan of inclusive housing. When a developer builds a building, put some people in it who cant afford market rate but that isnt happening in many cases. The city is taking money, putting it into a fund, these buildings are going up like at 38 dolores street. Insofar as i know they put money into a fund but that housing i dont believe is being built yet. I would love to see a time when developers give the money first to the city. If they dont want poor People Living in their building, give the money to the city, build that housing then go back and break ground on
Lived in a Single Family home for 10 years which there is a loophole. There is no rent control. I have 4 children and the only way i was able to stay in the neighborhood was with the help of my voucher. My father has now been passed on for 30 years, which he was a relocation supervisor of the native american disscent, a california indian. He was a navaho and apache. I am with the mono napono frieb. I am a native american of yosemite where San Francisco gets their water. We were forced to live in the mission in order to live and not be killed. I have now been homeless for 3 months. I cannot find any housing and i have worked for all boards for about two years. My family, we own the mohawk gas station on 25th and south van ness which was threatened to be burned along with all artifacts due to the 70s. I come with the reyes family and serve on the native American Title board 7. If i cant find Affordable Housing there wont be a way i can stay in the city. Thank you, i appreciate that. Than
