any questions that you might have. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> thank you for your presentation. now we are going to open this up to the council members first for comments and then we will take public comment after that. >> council members? >> skip? >> hi. thank you so much for your presentation and i have a few questions. i will try to be quick there is a lot of numbers thrown around. i want to make sure that i understand fully. on the first slide you said that there were replacement housing obligations and you said there were 5800 units still to be replaced. are those part of the 8,000?

>> yes. their considered the replacement housing. yes. >> okay. great. in the plans to redo public housing, the large public housing projects, how much of that -- did you give us figures on how much that was accessible? >> because those are all new construction units. what we'll be doing is tearing those units down. we'll be using the same construction goals of 5 percent and 2 percent and a hundred percent adaptable to the extent so you know, the director knows one of our products that is just finishing now is hunters view and it's in a steep area. we are trying to get the topography. >> i imagine that is challenging and open space requirements for projects too, are there not? >> yes. >> i have one more question,

comment. i thought i did. i wanted to know is this in the beginning we are not getting the 50 million replaced for several years, how much of demand is out pacing supply during these next 10-12 years until we can get back to a level? >> let's say twice as much. the fact that redevelopment agency used to provide $50 million on average and we are only getting $20 million from the housing trust fund. our production doesn't necessarily decrease, but the amount of funds and resources has been cut in half. >> and we weren't providing accessible housing for everyone with the redevelopment agency so there is a lot of work to be done?

>> exactly. more work. >> thank you. >> i want to ask the question. where do you apply for the new one on 3rd and the one that's going to be on the mission bay? where do you apply for these? >> those projects are not yet taking applications. for the one at 1075 lacont, it's for homeless so it's through different access points like service providers working with the housing human agency. and 1114, that one is only maybe 30 percent construction. that won't be accepting any applications for many months. >> will this be in 2014? >> this will be 2014, towards the end of the year. >> maybe when you come back you will have that information.

>> sure. we'lbe posting information on our website when applications are available. >> excuse me, harriet wong? >> hello. this isn't really a question but hopefully it's something that can be taken into consideration. as my children were growing up and i do have a child with a disability, i work part-time and i did apply for the bmr's. i actually tried three times and every time you apply for a bmr, you have about 7-10 days to get all your paperwork together. so you are working

and running around like crazy getting all your papers together and then everything is by lottery. so you go there in the morning early in the morning and so one time i might have came pretty close but i still didn't get it. but i noticed that one of the people that did get it was a single person and much younger and anyway, by the time i became 50 years old i gave up on the whole thing , but maybe something can be taken into consideration here that maybe she should see how many times the person actually tried to apply for this lottery process and other people are much younger and they still have time. "see what i'm saying"? i

just wanted to bring that up. >> i will bring that comment back up to our office. >> thank you very much. thank you presenter. we have public comment now and we would ask because we are running a little bit behind time. we would ask if you would keep it to two minutes. thank you very much, you guys. >> good afternoon. it's good to see theresa in person. she was on the phone when the business community housing was going up and violating a number of city and county regulation. i had to zap them on that. tour -- you are to notify the neighborhood. i applied for shelter plus care

in 1999. i was in my 50s. i did not get placed until 2005 due to lottery. so, just needed to tell you that. that's the way it works. i needed to bring to the attention on the mayor's office on housing that there needs to be oversight accountability and auditing. we have people dying in their apartments and not found for days because social services is too busy socializing than keeping track of people and frankly i'm sick and tired to hear from the clerk that the person is found dead or have the police next door because they missed a dialysis. you need to find out what the social services are doing and give them direction and audit

them on what they are doing with the money. you spend the money on surround sound and spend the money makes mow sense and you need to make sure they are compliant with federal and ream accommodation. that is not happening. you need to have the oversight, the auditing, the accountability and what happens, negative consequences for inappropriate behavior because it's not happening now. thank you. >> thank you, very much. >> bruce? i'm bruce allison for magazine. i'm on fixed

social security income. after i pay my rent of $600 then i pay for food. we need to make more housing about 20-30 percent lower due to a lot of us disability. i do have two ad ck and dyslexia. and due to that, our income is very limited. we need more low income housing at 20 and 30 percent. thank you very much. >> thank you very much. >> jerry and this is public comment on this team. >> i know. >> thank you. >> i have a request about the

houses and i wanted to know, i know some of the places on mission bay is just bringing up to our attention today. and i wanted to know any places is w. i o -- street is one building is knocked down and i don't know what they are doing at that point. my question are they rebuilding that and another thing, that building. i think everybody moved out of that building to the other building. that's what i wanted to know. another part i wanted to know on how many more buildings you will make in the city and when you will build it. please answer the question

please. thank you. >> behind the bridge line? >> no one? thank you. is there anymore public comment? okay. guys, seeing there is no more public comment, we are going to -- one more? is it on this item? okay. i'm with senior and disability action, my name is tony robles. one of the concerns we have for people on ssi who are living with disabilities, overcoming disabilities, thriving with disabilities in the face of a lot of barriers. how a lot of the housing is not accessible

to people on ssi because of the financial requirements. that's something to look into. one thing i would like to say is that i think it's been a very long-term pro attracted policy within san francisco to have communities not survive, i think redevelopment had a big part in that. i can say that because my family was displaced from the western addition. my grandmother had a house there in 1930. we are one of the early families that lived in the fillmore and we were displaced. i had family who were involved in the i hotel struggle. we know what happened with that. we know that in the early days, african americans, people were saying, are you going to stay here. the war is

over. are you going back home to arkansas and texas and oklahoma. there was a plan with the city planners and the city's founders to do away with our neighborhoods, to do away with our cultural places, our places that we coeand came together. so for those of us that have been in san francisco for a long time, myself, i have been here 50 years. i feel like we are losing our culture and it's very sad. for those of us that are like myself and like people that who i grew up with and people in my family, we are just trying to keep what we have and housing is it. housing, health, it's all inter connected. thank you. >> thank you. >> to the chair, could i make a quick comment as well. thank you so much for that opportunity. i wanted to thank

our speaker from the mayor's office of housing for coming and giving the presentation today. i want to remind council that housing is one of our most important programs at the mayor's office on disability and that each of those beautiful projects that were up the screenare projects that our office has done, the plan check and field inection on to make sure we can get the most accessibility out of that. i also wanted to clarify the term adaptable housing versus accessible house. one thing about adaptable housing is it's large enough and the doors are wide enough and has blocking in the walls that will help you create an accessible unit. that 93 percent figure that you saw on that graph is a really important component in this package because that can be

accessible housing. that's all i had to add, thank you. >> thank you. okay, we are going to take a ten minute break and we'll be right back. thank you very much.

>> let's get started on the second half of our meeting. team 7. accessible parking improvement. we'll have two speaker and take council member questions and then public comment and we have interim thank you. normally you see me on the other side. this day i'm here as carla johnson, coy chair of the advisable committee. i'm here to take an at some opportunity to introduce everybody. i will be

speaking and bob will be speaking and so will jessie lorentz. in the room we have bob in the community. we also have bonnie of access northern california over here to the house left. we have christina here at the house right. jessie lorentz from the living resource center and via hale representing seniors and my cochair ed ruskin. and of course role and wong who is

part of our accessible advisory committee. can i have the slides on the screen please. so in our presentation today we are going to be talking about the problem, the process and the recommendations. and our first slide up on the screen is a good visual image of part of our problem. what we see is a man in his car. a person with a disability. you can see he has a hand control that he uses to operate his vehicle and he has a parking placard. the problem is not that he has a placard, the problem is that he could find the parking he needs close to his destination. i have an

example of that problem and i would like to actually turn to my fellow presenter jessie lorentz and ask her to share that. >> jessie lorentz from the executive director of the independent living resource center in san francisco. we've been a part of san francisco's community since 1977 and one of the things that we've noticed as an organization particularly over the last 6-7 years is that folks who come to our organization seeking services and support are often unable to find parking and it many cases have to turn around and go home. so parking availability particularly for folks with disability and with plaque card is a big e

failure to access people with disabilities. when confronted with this problem we formed a committee of 16 stake holders in the room. one piece of context for you for those who don't know what the law is for parking placard is in california. it requires cities to allow placard holders to stay on street parking spaces without payment or time limits. i'm going to ask for technical assistance on the slides. i'm going to talk about the slide. the next slide that should be showing is a photograph from

cars parked at a curb. the cars all have parking placards. why this is relevant is because we learned in our research as the committee met over six months that in san francisco there are 29,000 metered parking spaces and 60 thousand placard holders. at any given time on the street what you might find is as many as one out of four parking spaces is occupied by a placard holder and in some neighborhoods that is going up to as much as 50 percent. so who are all these people? >> i'm bob, also
