to begin by thanking my colleagues on the land use committee and thank you platform for putting this item on the calendar. we're here to talk about an important piece of legislation that's the result of a long community process that has involved tenant from thought the city. as part of a pretty robust and growing tenants movement in san francisco. to come up with solutions to deal with the affordability crisis and to deal with the fact as we're speaking people are facing eviction in san francisco and the long-term solution is to create affordable housing and change state law to address the speculation that is happening in different parts of the city. in the meantime, as we wait for

that law at the state level to be changed we need to take action to help people facing eviction today. we're moving in an affordability crisis and i know we had heard a lot of stories from people through the district and part of the city so we have a study of whether or not the things we were seeing were happening and to have numbers to back up. the study showed we have one hundred and 70 percentage increase in ellis act evictions and the study also showed what we saw was the gibb of a trend and bend the calendar ends the

evictions will be higher. some of the advocates have pointed out that the renters were talking about more than that 3 hundred units that will face the eviction and that's condone by the displacements that happen through buy outs are not even reported and currently not regulated. as weaponry looking into the existing law in san francisco we were shocked to learn if you're facing on ellis act eviction the most you can collect is $5,200 from your landlord anyone who has tried to rent in the castro 5 thousand plus didn't take you

far. so that will mean i'll have to leave san francisco. that's why the legislation that was discussed at the various conventions and is consistent with the federal government steps in and tries to take the property through eminent domain and ties the relocation costs not to an ash tree number to 10 thousand as suggested but to the market. what would it take foyer a san francisco tenant to be able to stay in san francisco. so this legislation requires that the landlord pay the difference between the tenants rental rate prior to the eviction and what would have been the market rate for that unit for 10 years. this formula will assure with the payments represent true

market costs and allow the tenants who face the dramatic rent increases in san francisco the opportunity to actually stay in san francisco. it's not the solution but it gives them a fighting change. the rental prices in san francisco have increased since 2005 which is actually, the last time we passed on ordinance requiring the ordinance. a lot of has happened since 2005 in san francisco. we now in san francisco have the highest rent in the country higher than new york city. currently as was noted the amount that's being required for relocation is very low. so when you look at it in the complex of what's happening in san francisco you can see why it

is important. crossing the zero.com agency of june 2013 last time the city medium was 3,0004 hundred and $14 a month. that's the amount as of june 2013 that the amount has probably gone up 3 thousand 5 hundred doesn't mean much when the rental is more. the people he leah are not only native san franciscans but people who have made a life here in san francisco who have lived decades and years and who have dedicated themselves to the neighborhood my community. the face of the neighborhoods are changing and changing the face of san francisco. it's not something that was

focused on one parrot of town but happening throughout the city. their people like blanca reece >> she works as a caregiver with seniors and her daughter ask a constitute at san francisco state university they're facing an ellis act in the neighborhood and its people like jeremy michael's a gay who came to san francisco from ohio more than thirty years he's fighting an eviction after living in the csa afro-electro for 17 years and people like daniel whitaker who had to stop working because of a dablt and prior to that distract go

sdrablt and the more you learn about the challenges that the tech workers face when you talk about the tech workers in the community they're the same issues facing the long term residents are facing those folks. this ordinance is an important step in finding a solution and it will help tenants and it's needed now. in fact, if anything i worry about we could have introduced this legislation months ago it would have benefited people that are unfortunately not living in san francisco any longer. we continue to work on fixing state law that's part of the steam it's important for us to

act quickly today to bring this item to the board as as quickly as possible i respectedly ask for the support of this committee i want to thank the following combhbz. supervisor kim. supervisor avalos and supervisor mar. with that mr. chairman, i want to call upon ted who will talk about the memories of the legislation and how the planner will use the estimated market rate which a unit to figure out how the relocation payment will work. actually >> i'll give my colleagues an opportunity. >> supervisor cowen are you intending to over an amendment. >> okay. >> supervisor kim.

>> thank you chair and supervisor avalos for bringing this legislation. i'm happen to co-sponsor this legislation for all the reasons we know that ellis act evictions are one are part of the things gripping san francisco and the rents have skyrocketed. many tenant are willing to go but when they try to figure out where they're going to move and they discover their permitted out of the system and the reassistance payment doesn't help with the first 3 months of rent. it's important as we look at this issue we try to address one of the negative consequences of it that people have no more to go this is one piece that

addresses that and it's important to address the relocation 35i789s as the market gets hotter. this will help to mitigate the prying and, of course, moving costs associated with new utility hook up. this is to important for business placed tenants and we have more to do we have to perform the is a state reform to the ellis act. we can do this and familiarize the displacement of the families. and i think there are across the board recommendation from the board of supervisors and the mayor's office to build and produce for affordable housing here in san francisco. two years mrs. lee was honored who became the face of the ellis

act evicts for her courageous and speaking out. a long time san francisco resident and putting a face to this. our city will continue to grow and change and can't leave folks behind. it's incredible when your traveling outside of san francisco to other cities this is the first question they ask you about the evictions and how can anyone afford to live in the city. it's important thank you local level. of course, there are one hundred and 16 ellis act evictions last year. to put that into context in 2010 there was 43 we're talking about one hundred and 67 or one hundred and 70 percent increase so we know that property owners radio take advantageing to evict

the current tenant. a recent study as shown that a vast voter are with senior resident and our most vulnerable. for all of us who have grandparents and senior members of the family we know how hard it is even though you can't afford to build in a neighborhood whether you go in your local neighborhoods but the friends and folks in the community that help to keep it safe march on top of the burdens we're findings most of our seniors can't afford to live in the city. this is an incredibly important piece of legislation so support a piece of that and make sure we're supporting our residents to stay here. and the rest i'd like to

turnover to supervisor campos >> thank you supervisor kim. we do have a major problem in the city and ellis act evictions are a part of the overall displacement in the city. we know that every ellis act eviction that happens others because of preliminary discusses or threats we have buy out that consider we're not getting the full picture. i do know what i hear in my district not every tenant that gets evicted let's me know but from what we are hearing it is very, very troubling. i have one large property owner who is just himself ellis 4 buildings in my district.

when i asked to meet with him to withdraw the nosey had one other one i didn't know about and refused to withdraw. it seems like there is not one week going by that the ellis act is not take place. in 2005 or 6 when the voters adapted i think it was proposition h if i'm not mistaken that set the current 52 hundred i supported that at the time it was a healthy increase in the ellis act relocation payments and now i agree supervisor campos said the number is low. and when you look at what it takes to get housing in the city it is not it's not adequate it's

barely enough the moving alone. we're at great risk in the city to losing long term tenants or tenants in general's i know i moved into the castro in 2007 i don't think i could move into the castro today so the people who are evicted that's a problem. ear moving forward to stabilize people in the housing that is very important and never lose sight of what supervisor campos said we must address the structural problems in our housing problems eave shot ourselves in the foot by not producing housing and pit ourselves in the situation where

average month is over $3,000 a month. i support this legislation and look forward to the amendments one of my questions was that the legislation didn't deny how you did the calculation i can think of a number of different ways to do that and i don't think the board should be delegating to the controls office the responsibility of determining how to do the calculation that's a policy decision for the board i understand there are will other things that can arise from time to time not all situations are the same and so i appreciate that as well and i look forward to seeing those amendments. i'll say i have questions for the budget and analyst as well we received the report an hour

before the meeting i like to get it before that but i look forward to reading that >> supervisor cowen. >> you've heard from my colleagues they've relocated several years years ago i have 4 younger sisters and to highlight how important it is and difficult to live here and my parents have lived in their home but their grandchildren are not able. supervisor campos worries about we would have done more. as i was walking out to come to committee one of my aids were being briefed on the amendments i worry about i had more time to study the amendments so i'll be

focusing my questions to understanding the amendments. particularly i'm wanting to hear about the hardship in san francisco we've had the highest number of fooerz. the leandro are not represented by association but for example, a church will own >> house where the pastor and their reverend will live in and they struggle to keep the property and own other nonprofits and struggle to escape them into the community and generally they are for the bayview hunters point without further ado, i'd like to go ahead and get started. >> supervisor campos.

>> why don't i preceded to briefly industry the amendments we'll be introducing and thank you for the opportunity to thank all the tenant rights advocates that have worked with my office. what's criminal about the number of pieces of legislation that have been introduced around the issue of affordability it's around the grass roots and mobilization that has take place across the city. you see legislation that has not passed before that has passed unanimously from the board and that's the testament to our organizers. the first amendment addresses what was addressed by supervisor wiener in which the calculation is made i'm making an amendment

that the estimating annual changes in the rental market that the market data that reasonably reflects the example of the apartments in san francisco the chief economist ed will present briefly and shortly on the exact method that will be used and thinking how to implement that we explored different options including having the process go to the rent board in terms of the original calculation and it was based on on the decisions that the advise was given it will be good forbid the controls office to come up with with the physical formula the second is when the calculation is
