work opportunity a call for end on welfare and assistance for families needing temporary assistance which will require families to be moved off as welfare recipient and looking for work. in city and states scrambled to look for work opportunities and create them where they weren't. in san francisco there was a multiyear process to create opportunities here locally. what we established at that time was around 1998 was the first source hiring program which required developers. people seeking permits for commercial and residential development to work with our workforce development programs as a first source of contact for people looking for work on these projects. this has been

in place for 16 years. but now i'm looking forward to reforms to that to actually make it easier for the seat to anticipate what we can expect in terms of workforce opportunities much early in the process of development. this legislation will require that developers share with department the office of economic work enforceability program their work for local hiring as well as what they expect to have for wages, for jobs once they are created online or during construction and give the city a chance to know what our pipeline is going to be 2 years earlier than we typically expect for these projects. this legislation is supported by a number of community organizations, labor organizations, the building trades supporting it, many many organizations involved with the san francisco rising are supportive as well. we pass from committees and hope

evict for the market rate during that period. this ordinancen insures that relocation payment adequately represent and allows tennants to have an opportunity to have a fighting chance to stay in san francisco. the rental and purchase prices for san francisco homes have increased dramatically since 2005 and we last have the ordinance requiring relocation assistance payments to tennants at that time. currently landlords are required to pay relocation assistance in the amounts of $5265 per tenant and they must pay $2500 to displaced

elderly. anyone who knows the market rate in san francisco has the highest rate in the country know it's not sufficient to allow to stay if evicted. the city residential rate was $3400 a month. which means the 5200 you $5200 you get on the relocation doesn't get you too far. the people that we have seen leaving the city are oftentimes native city of city of san franciscans or third and 4th generations. these are the people that have made the city that it is. there are people like blanca raise -- reyes who is a caretaker and her

daughter who attends university and someone living in the castro in his apartment for the last 17 years. there are people like daniel when -- whit kerr who is having trouble to stay where he list. everyone is being impacted by this. it's not just long-term residents. as we have the new in flux of workers, these tech workers are being it impacted. i believe this is not a silver bullet. it reflects what we are as a community. as we are aware for the last few months we have had tenant

conventions which couple -- culminated to a citywide convention. this is what what was formed to helped them stay in san francisco. i know there are a number of issues raised and i wanted to note that we have purposely amended this legislation to represent hardship, when you are talking about small time landlords that there has to be a mechanism for them if the relocation cost becomes too burdensome that they can make the case to the rent board which has the option to wave the new requirement and go back to the old formula. i believe that all of us can think of individual cases where maybe hardship would occur and i think that the current law as amended provides an opportunity for people who truly will have a hard time complying with the law to make their case. i

think it's probably the best approach to deal with these cases because it's really difficult to know without really knowing the individual circumstances of each case whether a waiver is appropriate. so, with that in mind, i ask you today for your supposed and i look forward to a substantive discussion at the board. thank you. >> supervisor breed? >>supervisor london breed: thank you, i want to thank supervisor campos for bringing this legislation forward. i wholeheartedly agree that we need to increase the payment landlords make to tennants who are evicted by the ellis act. that will help them stay on their feet and help them stay in san francisco which we know ot
