because as the weather gets better we get out and about more. so they notice disruption on the path of travel. services support animal discrimination issues and most importantly sro and reasonable accommodations and housing problems. so it's very timely that we will be having housing agenda an items today. finally i want to highlight one case which involves the holiday plaza elevator. it's often miss communicated or there is misinformation that they is -- elevator is maintained by bart or munis. this is the complaint that we got in our office based on the fact there was not enough information or effective

communication about the status of repairs for that elevator. so after some fact finding and research, we tracked down the right department which is actually department of public works that maintains they will -- elevator which is the only point of access to the visitor center and as a result of that complaint, the department of public works is now posting better signage that clearly denotes the proper number to call when this -- elevator is out of service. if you are using this -- elevator take note of the sign. so this is important to hear from the public. if you have comments for us or feedback, please give us a call4155 554-6789. for

voice.4155 556-6799 t t y. we would love to hear from you. >> thank you miss joanna. now council man skip. excuse me if i say your name wrong. >> that's okay. good afternoon. the disability community has a long history of challenges to object obtaining affordable and acceptable housing. they have unpleasant results and are forced into institutions or out into the streets. locally the

problem was exacerbated when the government cut this aid. the grant cut construction of affordable housing in san francisco. their loss was demonstrated to the lives of thousands of san francisco citizens. to provide adequate and safe housing for our most vulnerable neighbors is not just a good idea for a justice model. it's a service right. over the course of the last 10 months, the mayor's disability council has been focusing on housing issues for the disability community in san francisco. i am going to briefly review previous presentations to illustrate two things. first, it is important to underscore this complex issue which requires a comprehensive study to understand and secondly, that

the mdc is taking time to do that detailed research before making it's own recommendations. in september 2012 we had presentations by the human services agency and by source to shares describing supporting housing opportunities they provide. in october of 2012, the mdc was given an overview from the san francisco department of public health about their supportive housing programs including information about the homeless outreach team. november 2012 brought together representative from the mayor's office on disability, senior and disability action and the mission sro collaborative to provide community perspectives on supportive housing and sro's. sro's are single room occupancy hotels. at the february meeting, they providing an overview of

programs at the mayor's office of hope. hope stands for housing opportunity housing engagements. today we'll be hearing from the mayor's point of view on housing. we'll discuss proposition c, the affordable housing trust fund to expand on affordable housing in san francisco. it was the hope of many that the proposition c trust fund would replace the funds lost by the elimination by the redevelopment agency. while that maybe true in the long run, there may be likely declining budgets for the next several years. therefore it's of great concern for housing issues and interest in the presentation that i'm pleased to introduce trees i theresa

i -- yonga. >> thank you for inviting us. i have a powerpoint presentation that i will put on the screen and try to describe to the best of my ability. so my apology in advance. the affordable housing trust fund as council member, thank you for the very good introduction was an initiative proposition c passed in november. we wanted to pass a little bit information about that about the problems that we work on and that what we have to work with in the future and given our funding source and our pipeline. what we would like to cover, i would like to

cover this overview about who the mayor's office of housing is and a few of our programs. the document called the analysis of pediment report which is what we are required to do as part of our federal entitlement funds and what we found in that particular report and also go over prop c or the housing trust fund, a little bit overview on that and pipeline of affordable housing and our goals towards striving increased accessibility. so the mayor's office of housing we are the city's housing finance agencies especially in the light of redevelopment last year. we are tasked with the creation and preservation of affordable housing and we use a variety of funding sources. one of our primary ones is federal

funding specifically the home program and the community development block grant funds or cd b g as they are commonly known. that is the entitlement as it comes from urban development from san francisco and it's nationwide. we also receive funding from the state. the department of housing and community development a particular program called cal home and locally we receive what are called housing fees and market rate developers when they bill below the rate market rates for inclusion housing rate and the housing trust fund. with redevelopment in 2012, we have lost approximately $50 million of an

-- annual investment. the mayor's office of housing we have been named as the success or housing agent to redevelopment agency and now we have received the so-called assets of the former redevelopment agency that are in operation. we are also responsible for working with the success or agency or what is now known as the office of community investment and infrastructure. we are still responsible for doing major development areas in mission bay, transbay and hunters point shipyard candle stick point and we are going to work with their goals and production in those areas and lastly as success or

and investment and infrastructure there is a particular obligation that they must replace 6700 units of affordable housing in the 60s 70s and it's called their housing demolition what some know as urban renewal. there is still 5800 units that need to be replaced. with the loss of redevelopment, the mayor's office of housing, has grown now to 8,000 units for the foreseeable future. >> we have a few documents and plans that we follow as our guiding documents just to put our work in context. one of the most important documents that

we use is the consolidated plans. it's a five year planning document that we are mandated to prepare with a lot of public comments as how we use our federal entitlements and all of our public service grants and affordable housing production and trying to meet the needs of low income communities in san francisco. another key document is the san francisco tenure plan. you may have heard about this when you had the presentation from the human services agency or department of public health. hope sf which is our transformative document to tackle the dire conditions of the larger public developments like hunters view and

portrero. another document is by the age use task force and that plan specifies a goal of building 400 units for housing transition age youth. transition age youth are from 18-24, youth emancipating out of foster care and the document which guides the homeless housing and homes services within the city and uses things like to federal mckinney program. the analysis of impediment of choice report which is a document to a consolidated plan. i will go over that more and lastly is the redevelopment area plans. since as working with the former redevelopment agency in mission bay, transbay and

hunters point shipyard we are bound by those area plans and requirements under those plans for affordable housing in those areas. >> so the analysis of impediment for choice is a five year document that the housing development or hud identifies what are the impediments for housing choice within our jurisdiction and requires us to take appropriate actions to overcome the effects of any of those impediments and we are required to maintain records to reflect that analysis and actions we take. so some of the findings we have found with the analysis of fair housing include like discrimination for

particular protective classes, affordability is one of the impediments as well as and of course access, just general access to housing that is affordable to certain populations like seniors or disabled or other classes. so next is an existing, one of the findings was trying to analyze our affordable housing that we try to finance in our portfolio. this is a report of findings of about 8537 affordable housing units that we over see that we helped finance over the years. so what we have found are units that are occupied by persons with an impairment, they are 1333 of those units out of 8537, about 16 percent of the housing that we assist are occupied by

persons with an impairment. moving on housing with physical impairments out of that 8537 units, 16 percent are affected with personal with a physical impairment. moving to adaptable, about 30 percent or 2593 units out of that 8500 are adaptable and we also identify units that are ak ccessible to those that are visually impaired. 13 percent of our units are accessible to those that are visually or hearing impaired. these numbers are reported by our developers and project sponsors. they self report base on what they submit to us what we call annual monitoring. we don't do a

thorough check wechl rely on what they self report. some of these numbers are percentages for visual impairment maybe the same units as visual or hearing can be the same as physical. there might be some double counting. i want to break those out to note. just to put it into context of the findings that we found, the units that we assist based on statistical data we found that about 10 percent of all san franciscans have a disability. this is based on the 2010 census. which is older data. based on the american community survey is what is considered low income household that we would serve

those earning less than 50 percent median income are also those households. just to understand our housing now serves about 16 percent with 21 percent that are needed. we are not meeting everything, the needs that are out there but it's what we are striving to do with the future pipeline. >> so to go back in terms of the impediments the three areas, the first one is impediment related to housing affordability including issues specific to assisted housing programs and market rate housing. the second impediment in broad strokes is direct discrimination and thirdly impediment to specific classes such as seniors and people with

disability, people with criticism records, immigrants or limited english proficiency. now onto the affordable housing trust fund. what is it and what does it fund? >> it's a general fundamental indication from the city's general fund. it is estimated to generate approximately $20 million in the first year. we expect to get our first fund negative -- funding in july of this year. it is expected to grow. we won't necessarily receive that same level of funding until 12 years from now. and in 30 years, over the life of the trust fund as is

projected to generated about $1.2 billion for affordable housing. it is under the trust fund and it's going to be allocated across a ray of programs for housing rental production and home ownership and housing stabilization programs. housing stabilization or definition is programs that are preserve affordable housing such as rehabilitation of single family homes and foreclosure prevention and led housing healthy to make sure they are habitable to resident. and reducing the residential protection cost that are required under our inclusionary housing program. so, to talk a little bit about

the mayor's office housing current pipeline. as i mentioned before we have a pipeline of over 8,000 units for the foreseeable future. thanks to the redevelopment agency. we target specific populations in housing types. to highlight a few, we specifically work on housing towards supportive housing which is housing for the homeless or developmentally disabled. we have a particular goal for housing for transitions for youth and housing for seniors, housing for low income families, moderate income home ownership and housing replacement which serves seniors for our program. a large focus of our pipeline is the hope sf program because of the dire need and the scale

of those developments. just to talk a little bit about our affordable housing production as it relates to accessibility. within the next 5-7 years we estimate we will be working towards the development about 1673 units. these are rehabilitation. majority of the housing is business or occupationing on in the next 5-7 years and about 90 percent will be construction. of course what we are required to do for accessibility is the 5 percent minimum for mobility impairment as well as additional 2 percent for visually and hearing impaired. button top of that, we also require for new construction or have a goal that the remaining units be adaptable so they can be adjusted for full accessibility. since we have an at some point to create full

accessible units for new construction. rehabilitation which is a smaller portion of our pipeline, about 10 percent, we are still required the 5 percent accessibility for mobility impaired as well as additional 2 percent for visually and hearing impaired and we always strive to have an adaptable goal with our rehabilitation projects, but unfortunately it various -- varies a lot because of the conditions of the buildings. a lot of buildings we are rehabilitating are older buildings from anywhere from 1910-1980s. those units were built with different codes and we are trying to balance and maximizing accessibility in

those rehabilitated units with not losing a lot of affordable housing units. it's a fine line trying to strive to maintain a balance of those. i just want to highlight a few examples of housing we have produced in the past year. 150 otis, a city landmark. it's 75 brand new studio units with full baths and kitchen. it serves homeless veterans. we managed to achieve a hundred percent of the units hundred percent accessible or adaptable. it opened late last year. another project is current under construction is

1075 l.a.cont, around 3rd street. 72 units serving homeless families and transition youth. 10-70 units are adaptable and 10-20 units are serving the visually and hearing impaired. >> next is 1184th street in mission bay. this is a new development of 124 units for serving very low income families including homeless families. 5-7 units will be ak ccessible and with 20 percent for hearing and visually impaired. lastly, this is a project that we are very proud of is 220 golden gate, the

adaptive reuse of what is known as the central ymca. that was a rehabilitation of that building of historic landmark into 174 studios. serving the homeless and 85 percent are for the accessible and 85 percent are adaptable and it also includes a state of the art health clinic run by the department of public health to serve the homeless and it just opened up this year. that concludes my presentation and i'm here for 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'll be 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.
