got the letter of intent that they were going out of the land lord business which they had been in one week. on februar 24 of this year we received our notice of ellis act eviction so we are due to vacate on the 4th, 2014. i support your proposal, especially the moratorium. i hope it will apply to us too. i'm also a volunteer tutor at telegraph hill community center and i really would like to continue contributing it my community. as all of my co-tenants, we have a couple asian immigrants who are 89 and 92, respectively, and they are section 8 resip cipients and they are being evicted too.

urban green chose not to do a value added and do market rate but just evict us all. anyway, i really really hope that this matter, these proposals go forward quickly. thank you very much. >> thank you, next speaker. >> hi, i've evan juisilary, it's me with the pictures. you may need someone to get here and record. you know i been here 89 hours of dot com, then moved and took our private self off 829 ft. leafenworth where they were moving two people in with incomes from around the country. san francisco has a history of pacific heights with people moving from la and you got to think ellis act was voted from san francisco,

remember george moscone and harvey milk was killed, aids was coming out in san francisco and people went in and voted for the ellis act and you took advantage of people at a horrible time. san francisco, you know it's amazing, knob hill and the mission all round this city you have taken all the people houses and i can't believe the young educated uppies are coming here with at the twitter and pushing people out. it's time for someone with common sense. i have the first family on the back of me. the mayor should take history

49. the paepl who drive in want apartments in this city so they are coming in to take what they didn't realize the city would get transportation, they want to come live here now because they have put so much green gas out in those 9 big counties they are coming here and it's time for you to join the community housing partnership and find out why people's apartments are being taken. thank you. >> thank you very much. next speaker. >> thank you very much for having this hearing. i was born and raised in the mission and we survived the dot com and i thought the dot com was bad, that was nothing. i mean you talk about, people have talked about a crisis, you have to treat it as a crisis and the way you treat it as a crisis is you have a state of emergency and san francisco needs to declare that. we have enough supervisors who are very intelligent that could declare an emergency, you got a mayor

who today said he's signing on to get on board, so let's declare a state of emergency. you know when we started our mission no eviction two months ago, we have organized over 3,000 people already who have come out of everywhere and i was shocked. i thought it was the mission again under attack by these people moving in. growing up in the mission, nobody wanted to live in the mission. but now everybody wants to live in the mission and now i'm finding out that it's not only happening in the mission, being here today and seeing seniors, white people, gay people, african people, asian people, and you talk about people from all over the city. that's we have a crisis, it's not only in the mission, it's the whole city. and you look at, we got 37 cranes up right now in downtown san francisco and if you look at the new cranes that will go up

next year, why is it all this development is going on and why are we not having housing that's affordable for people who make under $40,000 a year being built? in the mission right now i ask you to investigate, we have 5 sites that the city could build immediately affordable housing and i'm sure if you go to every other neighborhood and do an inventory of possible sites that affordable housing could be built immediately, let's get it done. gracias. >> thank you very much. are there any other member of the public who would like to speak in seeing none, public comment is closed. colleagues, i don't know if you want it add anything to what has been said but the one thing that i want to note is that what's remarkable about

this hearing, and i'm trying to find, trying to find the positive, is the fact that we have had a pretty diverse and united group of people from all parts of the city, all neighborhoods, who have come together to talk about the need to act quickly and to act in unity and i think if there's a silver lining to this crisis, to this epidemic, is the fact that it is bringing people together. the beauty of what i have seen in the last few weeks is that as we have gone to events, demonstrations, marches, you have people from chinatown, people from the mission, people from knob hill, people from you name it, going to different neighborhoods saying what happens in one neighborhood

impacts me. and there is a poet who said that individually we are one drop, but together we are an ocean. and i think that this ocean of unity, this ocean of people, is going to make sure that we remain a city that works for everyone. so i want to thank all of you, i want to especially thank the people who had the courage to come out it this hearing and share their own individual stories. it's not easy to do that. it was heart-breaking, it was very moving and the fact that people are themselves going through a very tough time and yet they are coming here not just because of their own experience but because they want to do the right thing for other people and help other people, that's san francisco at its best. and i think that san francisco has the ability to change the course of what's happening and i know that this is only the

beginning and with that i will ask my colleagues that we continue this hearing to the call of the chair so that we can come back to this issue to see what progress has been made at the local and at the state level and i think that the idea that sarah short noted of all hands on deck, that's what needs to happen. we have to have all hands on deck to change what's happening here. with that, if we can have a motion. so we have a motion by supervisor mar. again i want to thank everyone who came out, thank the budget and legislative analyst, i especially want to thank hillary ronan in my office who has spent many hours putting this together so the hearing is continued to the call of the chair. mr. clerk, do we have any other business before the committee.

>> there are no other items before the chair. >> thank you very much, this meeting is adjourned. (meeting adjourned). hi, i'm l doing a special series about staying safe. let's look at issues of water and sewer. we

are here at the san francisco urban center on mission street in san francisco and i'm joined today by marrielen from puc and talk about water and sewer issues. what are things we should be concerned about water. >> you want to be prepared for that scenario and the recommendation is to have stored 1 gallon per person per day that you are out of water. we recommend that you have at least 3-5 days for each person and also keep in consideration storage needs for your pets and think about the size of your pets and how much water they consume. >> the storage which is using tap water which you are going to encourage. >> right. of course at the puc we recommend that you store our wonderful delicious tap water. it's free. it comes out of the tap and you can store it in any

plastic container, a clean plastic container for up to 6 months. so find a container, fill it with water and label it and rotate it out. i use it to water my garden. >> of course everyone has plastic bottles which we are not really promoting but it is a common way to store it. >> yes. it's an easy way to pick up bottles to store it. just make sure you check the label. this one says june 2013. so convenient you have an end date on it. >> and there are other places where people have water stored in their houses. >> sure. if you have a water heater or access to the water heater to your house, you can drink that water and you can also drink the water that the in the tank of your toilet. ; not the bowl but in your tank. in any case if you are not

totally sure about the age of your water or if you are not sure about it being totally clean, you can treat your water at home. there is two ways that you can treat your water at home and one is to use basic household bleach. the recommendation is 8 drops of bleach for ever gallon of water. you add 8 drops of bleach into the water and it needs to sit for 30 minutes. the other option is to boil water. you need to boil water for 5-10 minutes. after an earthquake that may not be an option as gas maybe turned off and we may not have power. the other thing is that puc will provide information as quickly as possible about recommendations about whether the water is okay to drink or need to treat it. we have a

number of twice get information from the puc through twitter and facebook and our website sf water.org. >> people should not drink water from pools or spas. but they could use it to flush their toilets if their source are not broken. let's look at those issues. >> sanitation is another issue and something people don't usually or like to think about it but it's the reality. very likely that without water you can't flush and the sewer system can be impeded or affected during an earthquake. you need to think about sanitation. the options are simple. we recommend a set up if you are able to stay in your building or house to make sure that you have heavy duty trash bags available. you can set this up within your existing

toilet bowl and once it's used. you take a little bit of our bleach. we talked about it earlier from the water. you seal the bag completely. you make sure you mark the bag as human waste and set it aside and wait for instruction about how to dispose of it. be very aware of cleanliness and make sure you have wipes so folks are able to wash up when dealing with the sanitation issue. >> thank you so much, hello, s lee here with activities worth buzzing about. there is much to do and see in sfrangs -- san francisco and we like to do it

that american business doesn't want just service a small community but this whole community. from the beginning this torrid company acknowledged that this can be a good model of bits. and certainly there's no befrt place to test this model but in san francisco. consider where we are today 140 new montgomery street stand for innovation. the first sky skrarpt to be in san francisco. it was then the pacific telephone company. i've been using caving stone as means of communication but that was the innovation of the day.

that was here in 1929 that, sir winston churchill made a telephone call for his 21st wedding anniversary he said why say the age of migraines it past it's just the beginning to today, we mark a new beginning it's called the monument for talk it's called yelp. today, we have the opportunity to celebrate the now global company community community community how many communities jeremy. while millions of companies understand how yelp can help to change minds fewer know how dedicated this is to helping

nonprofits doing the same they're committed to helping leader to find czar grant award and a having champions within the company to open the doors of opportunities pr i congratulate you it's a small amount of money to help incurs who are striving to build better community. 826 val say thank you for helping children to learn more skills. and that's what communication is all about. and the initiative to expand their business.

invest to this site. i know that erica having something in common being from berkley. it's great to see people coming together after law but it's good to see maybe there's life for me. but i'm happy to be here and join nancy pelosi and congratulating he yemen they're new home. yelp is special they're starting here and staying here that i i love coming here it is now 8 hundred the numbers changed. i visited a few weeks we looked at the building restroom for a thousand. i want to join leader pelosi it

is a happy day. i love to see companies succeed and the collaborating and sharing ideas this is what yelp has done. and then to do something special in the what happened in san francisco because companies that are here and start here they follow in the tradition like the charles swabbings and the fisher's and the hell man's they discover the resources and want others to grow with them. that's why to recognize 3 outstanding nonprofits you've columbian but even if company like yelp now, it's yelp and yelp foundation. i love that because i got it,

it's sales force and sales force foundation the technology companies are taking up that social responsibility like no others and i love seeing that because that's been the values of san franciscans. we've shared in our success and as we present more companies whether their along market street or monday night grorm we have 1 thousand companies in san francisco plus. think about how many foundations this represents >> we all know the understanding is becoming clear innovation is not about the temple it's about a way of thinking. it suggests that community collaboration, building of that

community, sharing of ideas is really a spirit. i've been very happy to collaborator collaborate with yelp and looufrt has been with us a couple of times we have a relationship that's not just in the city. i'm happy to bring yelp with me and present them to other mayors. we get to not only brag but to announce we're solving things that we're not in the drudgery of retention reform and run away accounts but we can solve them in partnership with the private sector. we took this one example data that no one looks altered from

restaurants and we discovered there's no eyes on that so we matched that up with the real eyes that are at yelp and made that connection so when you go to let yelp website i can see the relationship in government and we announced that and other cities asked how we have more people using that process. that's one of dozens of example whether it's in transportation finding parking spaces and ride sharing to function more efficient. this partnership goes beyond it and you have made it exist. i'te
