realized, it needs to apply, because we are going to need a combination of regulations and penalties and fees to get them to change their behavior, and i think this would be in that category. i want to show you a couple of things. this is the map that shows the 17 areas they are planning to expand to. this is the problem. they are too scattered. we are submitting a proposal for a compact transit-oriented campus of relief focuses on the mid-market area. they have whole bus lines to serve one building materials offices for the star motel.

this goes out to two buildings they have been fisherman's wharf and north beach. they can get rid of those. they clogged traffic. they are crazy. i think what this does is get this back doing some of the innovative things. there are several important clarifying amendments that clearly defined what student housing is and is not. they have been playing a game where they think they are housing units, but if you leave the school, you have to leave the housing. this clarifies the. the one situation -- the one point i made is that we include the right of private action to

enforce this. we do it like a residential hotel where we define who has that right, and you say it is a non-profit fed has in their mission preservation of affordable housing. -- that has in their mission the preservation of affordable housing. you want there be a way to make sure they stay on the straight and narrow. i would be happy to answer any questions, but i support the legislation. >> is that in there at all. do you want to go over the last part of it? >> i believe that is the purpose of the fee, for them to do the monitoring. >> we had a time where it was

defined as whatever people want it to be, so the reason we have 18,000, which is the same number we had when we passed this law in they 1978, because we have the action, so without any disrespect to any city department, as a backup, it is important to have that. i think if you take the language from the residential conversion and demolition of ordinance, that languages narrowed to be defined. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker please. >> we will wait and then ask the city attorney to advise us.

>> my name is francisco. when i worked of the presidio common-law -- the presidio, in early 2002, we gave a lot of housing to university students. the gentleman before may has spoken about how the university has deprived the city of a lot of housing, and the planning inspection has been slow, but in some of our discussions with planning, we have been able to ratify that. i have them to rally together. i am aware of those issues. i work with a few partners who do business not only in this

nation, but abroad, and again and again, what has not been matching is that the banks are loaning money to institutions of learning, and this has not been mentioned. i heard the planning department say that something about the institutions planning housing for having a plan for student housing so the city could work with them closely and in a better way, but as far as money is concerned, without money you cannot do much. the financial institutions today are embracing universities and institutions of learning to give them money. the other thing i want to point

out is there are areas in our city where there hundreds of units that were there on the market, and some of them are brand new. people will not buy them. people will not rent them. if this legislation passes, in the interim, we could look at some of those buildings, and the students come in, and they will give an input to the community. are you rooting to be our next mayor? >> no time soon. walter paulson.

letter and to ask if they can opine on creating this mechanism. i am just concerned that i would like to see this reached the board. >> it could be trailing legislation. we could look into that later. >> i will commit to sending a letter to major the inquiry is fully considered. >> we do not know who is going to be here later, so to have a backup is important. >> we could send a letter of

inquiry, and maybe both should be done. i think it would highlight the importance of taking a look at this. supervisor maxwell: colleagues, as amended, including the reporting amendment. without objection, the legislation is amended, and we will send a letter to our committee requesting that they look into having a private right of action, and that means somebody else is overseeing our housing and making sure we are following the rules and regulations. thank you, supervisor dufty, and who thank everybody who is working on this.

item seven will be continued on december 6, but if there is anybody here who would like to speak on it, you may. >> item #7 the committee benefits program. >> public comment on this item? >> i would like to say my understanding is that this is not to come before the public utilities commission until january. i served of the task force for the expansion, and we work with the people. i wish that you would delay this until after the puc, but the figures i have requested for the

southeast community benefit funds. thank you. >> any further comments? seeing none -- sorry. >> supervisors, regarding this, we had a task force, and there is a document with suggestions. she is just giving you some sense she is one of those from the task force monitoring community benefits. i have said it before and will say it again that at one point when the bond measure was passed, it was part of the clean water and the waste water, but they chose to go ahead with a clean water, and it is still ongoing. we are going to go, and it is going to come before the board of supervisors, some $600

million bond measure, so the short and the tall of this is that in the bayview, you need to visit the communities. people need help, and people are desperate. the other thing some of you may understand is that we have an influx of latinos that have change the demographics, and they need help, sue. -- too. that is the way you look at the picture. they are mandated to satisfy 5% of the total budget for work- force, community benefits, and so forth, so you are astute

enough to know, and you will be there, because soon the new supervisors will come in, and they may not know this, so it is good to remind them that whatever we do, even though it caters to the whole city, the impacted area is going to be the southeast sector. that is where it will be reallocated. that is where tunnelling is going on right now. tunnelling is going on, but with tunneling, it is specialized, so not too many people can be employed, but for the other thing, lots of jobs can be given, and for once, the impacted communities should be helped common -- be helped, but

you cannot help them by waiting until the last moment. you need a plan to do it right now. thank you very much. >> any further public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. that is exactly why we want to have a hearing. we want to have a hearing to find out exactly where they are going with this and how much money does go to public benefits. right now there is no real clear idea, so that is why we have these hearings. i look forward to seeing everybody here december 6. madam clerk, is there any further business? >> there are no further items. >> this meeting is adjourned.
