despite the fact that the tenant community has long on the the work and the bypass of the condo cap we brought to the table a significant thing that the tics would go through the process without the lottery. we wanted to have the suspension of the lottery process and the kreeks of a more sustainable rate for the conversion of condos. and since that time we've made many, many provisions but where we craw the line is on future conversions. we need to propose additional conversions. and in 10 years time when the

suspension is likely to end the existing - the eviction of the properties that are going to come back on the market we don't need another sales pitch to real estate to ease the process. so we need to keep - there's no reap to provide additional incentives to convert tics >> thank you. >> good afternoon members of the board. tending lion housing clinic. i'm going to address the legislation in the ordinance. it's essentially just an antiserve ability clause. it basically tells the court that the expiated conversions is

linked to the more thank you. and the lease and because the two are linked we need a provision that doesn't allow what the owners get in the - to be thrown out by a court during or in the middle of the process all those conversions happen and all the tenants get that is compromised is the two major things the lifetime lace and the moratorium. so that is the reason for this litigation provision it allows the 6 months to decide whether or not the litigation is a - it's a very reasonable provision. the tenant are not going to attack the lease or the

moratorium. if the industry seeks to

>> (speaking different language. i'm a immigrant for many years. my family came to the united states to full a promise that the american dreams and him or her. we were really poor but a few of us got together and buy homes together. we want to be self-sufficient and if the government can help us to continue our dream to oppose properties together on

our own we can continue to stay here. you know, a lot of small businesses have flee the city's so are other families of immigrant families have fluid the city because we can't be here. if you go back to the way it was we will all be stay here in san francisco and san francisco will be as prosper as it was before. thank you very much. >> ms. >> i'm here today and i'll read to you a letter hopefully not two quickly but we support the ordinance and we also encourage the language

to be adopted to the tenants for lifetime leases. we oppose the legislation but is endanger our rent control housing. so the amended version addresses this issue that the tic units be replaced with new 2350sh8 rental housing. we like the 10 year moratorium and once the lottery does resume there will be higher occupancy

limits >> thank you. next speaker, please >> good afternoon. i'm

it's one of the reasons our neighborhood see is seeing drastic changes. tenants invest in their neighborhood. given the habit ability. so there's deep investment when tenants are able to stay in their unit and in their communities they've made roots in and invested in. we ask - we know this has been a really long process for all of us. we feel we want to move on this issue. we feel we can acknowledge the tic folks. we want to have our city - one

of our cities last affordable optioned for tenants will curb in the future. thank you >> thank you, mr. collins and a thank you supervisors. >> as you know, our organization firmly opposed the original ordinance when it was introduced last year but fundamentally it failed to recognize that you convert a reasonable unit to an ownership unit your effectively taking one persons home and giving it to another. we affirmatively believe we should talk about him or her properties. this should be disciplined. this should meet and exceed the

loss of rental housing. those two fundamental pieces were missing but you see a revised ordinance we need to do this slowly and carefully. and so insure that tenants are not just ditched in this opportunity. the easiest process would be to stop the process. we came up with a real reform to a system that's fundamentally flawed. it gives the tic owners the guaranteed conversion process. that's the win-win, if you will, the tenants having the existing owners win from this compromise. i find it funny that the real

property owners is oops the legislation. what was originally proposed was to provide a bypass and i suggest to you folks this the the grand process and i ask it be moved forward >> next speaker >> (speaking different languag language). >> good afternoon i represent an association. this issue is very important for ct a's members it could jeopardy that our city needs to preserve

we have a housing crisis and opening up the renters problems could be putting fuel on the fire. i want to allow the eviction and i don't want anyone to go through the eviction process. we need to address this

i have 3 more cards. >> good afternoon supervisors. i think i mentioned last time that i think the driver hoermz is so important that the judgment goes out the window and sometimes, people get themselves into the situations.

we keep hearing folks want to become hoermz. we don't own a home or their home and it is from that legal situation that all their problems arise. they own an undivided interest. there are many others things walk taxes and there's a number ofproblems. we heard about one woman who said her whole family would be torn apart. we all agree that common sense suggest we help folks on tics convert to condos by don't go out of our waterways way to have this happen all over again.

we want to have folks own their own homes. it hepatitis the conversions to slow and the thing that people are calling the poison pill the legislation has two parts and they go together not allowing conversions in the future number one and number 2 allowing those folks to go condo. they go this way human resources i think the legislation at this point is fine and a thank you, ms. golden. >> so i sat here earlier and listened to the issue of all the people who have been hit by cars

the 9 hundred and 99 people and i'm trying to ask mitch is how they're connected. and what i hear is the word more and dissatisfied and no peace and driven. there's no accident that people are being hit by cars they're in a tremendous rush. they have to have something they don't already have. and that's really what i hear. i'm not seeing what situation i'm in because that's no relevant to me right now. we address an issue and one thing it's not necessarily more right than another and thank you. i definitely support legislation. thank you >> thank you. next speaker, please >> my name is steve robinson

and i'm a lifelong renter. it's hard to support this legislation. i think the issue is the tic conversion. just the tic. as a renter i may own as a tic that's the only way i can own. you can convert every single one now and it's not going to effect the market. what happens it is a

>> thank you. next speaker, please >> good afternoon supervisors. my husband and i were the first members in our families to mitigate to san francisco.

our rental unit couldn't hold the first name. my brothers family have to live in a low income housing today. i wish we could have done more to help them out of government assistance. but you all enhance with the best housing projects. this bill would be the worst one. my son want to buy a home but he can't. he will live with is for a long-term. are and the bad cycle will continue. thank you >> thank you. next speaker, please >> good afternoon supervisor. my wife's parents and building

in there in their 50's and tic and then convert into condo. we were - i move forward to san francisco in hong kong we were able to stay with them in their building. we took a loan and have no money. we have worries. if we have left of what the family has left -- we would be - it would be hard for us to survive. we have worked very hard. built a home of our own. we have since helped family and

friends until they can stand on their feet. him or her is good. i can do so much more to help others. this - this bill hurt my family. and we would not have been able to be here if we were not my parents help in the tic building now convert to condo. stop this bill now. thank you, thank you. thank you >> san francisco tenancies this legislation was introduced almost a year ago and it's been a long process. i think we have come up with

something this is beneficial for to many parties. we have dealt with the problem of tenancy in common and we have talked about the speculation in the future. so i think it's a time to pass this legislation as is as soon as possible as we can't do a better job that reaches the compromise to give to the real estate industry and gives to the tenant what we wanted. many of us need to be congratulated on reaching that

afford tic and are leaving this city. i won't be able to see my

grandkids or invest their families. the school of divorce is going to have fewer folks. please is no to this bill. thank you >> thank you. >> before i talk about my personal story and the reasons why we opens the legislation the way it is i want to encourage i to read the may 28 article that everybody was talking about. like a previous owner it's a 16 year of data on the same map. it looks scary but when i think about it why are there so many e visions throughout 16 years.

it's because all of the small tools that allow the tenants have been confiscated. and many men are frustrated he want to good out of business altogether. and none of the cases depict by the article have anything to do with the greedy or incompassion at folks. my family of 7 move forward to a tic building 4 years because our daughter had a major illness. we lived with our husband and kids there's 7 people in the unit. but due to the stress my husband

and i went through a divorce last year. he move forward out and we have to go through the whole tic conversion again. it's impossible for the rest of the three or four unit building to go thereto him or her residential requirement. this legislation has gutted out the conversion of two - >> thank you. thank you. is there any additional public comments? seeing none public comment is closed. supervisor kim >> i had a quick question about the statement of public comment. if there's a couple on an him or her if there's a divorce would any of the requirements change

for that him or her. i don't know is this a question for the city attorney. i imagination there wouldn't be any change in him or her or optcy. >> it's unclear in the situation that was presented if there were a fairly standard situation where there was a husband and wife that had an ownership stake together in one unit. there shouldn't be any impact if one of them left >> okay. thank you. >> supervisor kim any additional comments? >> thank you supervisor reed. >> thank you. wow. it's been a long time to get us to this point and i know

up until now i stood out in the background. i've listened to people and i've wanted to first of all, start off for thanking my colleagues to get us to a level of compromise. i know this has been a challenge to bring many of the parties that have come to the table to come up with a way to and number 2 protect the tenants that are renting in those developments and preserve our low amount of affordable rent control units that are left here in san francisco. so i want to thank everyone that had a role to play
