legislation to introduce the short term rentals. we've seen an explosion in short-term renltz it's estimated this is happening over one hundred thousand times in our city. we know everyday our current laws on the books to prevent our housing from being used as hotels is being broken and our bracket enforcement has phenomenon been working. i'm proposing a different approach based on feedback from proposers. first is to create a clear distinction between unacceptable and reasonable activity in this area of sharing housing. on one hand we've known of

offender who have taking entire homes off the market and turning them into hotels. on the other hand, we all know worker families and students on summary break and residents traveling or seniors with a spare room have been able to use the new sharing arrangements to pay for rent. today optimum proposing a distinction based on ones preliminary place of home. if they're a permanent san francisco person and their apartment is where they actually live for 9 months of the year. under our proposal a resident who meets the requirements can carry liability insurance in case anything goes wrong. the second element of our

proposal would be to strengthen enforcement. there have been multiple codes but the codes have not been consistent with the rules. my legislation will make it clear that all apartment buildings are subject to regulation and if a resident is not registered but involved with short term rentals that person will be automatically in violation and will be place on a black list until they come into compliance. as part of this conversations we have to make sure that we have the resources for enforcement. the third element is that we will finally be regularly the online short-term rentals. we know there are dozens of platforms and under our proposal

every approach will have to notify their tenants before posting is loud and every approach will have to have taxation. the last element is to really emphasis our city needs to collect the taxes we have to pay millions of dollars to pay for all our services for all the tourists who visit us. this is necessary to be roved before moving forward. i want to thank the treasurer for pushing this bill as well. two weeks ago after resolving that a b b agreed to collect taxation i appreciate and i know this is important. our legislation will require

every approach collect all taxation. this legislation strikes the right balance for the san franciscans to share their housing and cover their rent and supplement their income but we have to protect our tenants and others from displacement. i want to thank dbi and the city attorney's office and thank the tenants union for their support of our legislation and thank the feedback from online platforms as well as the apartment association and the coalition for bettered housing. i know there will be more discussions and look forward to those and thank amy chang

>> dr. espanola jackson. i came before i many times and i've made requests have to ask for an audit. there's funds in this city that's been allocated since 1992 i've mentioned before. it was today with resident management for public housing and tenants. the tenants of public housing are the ones supposed to be running the housing authority. all the information is here. all you have to do is have the controller check and find out how was those funds transferred to the city when it's supposed to be going to the tenants. for them to be organized and transcribed in all aspects. but i know you're not going to

do it but like i said, i need to also look at the fund for workforce and city build and the office of housing it's the money it's a gotten back in 1992 and when the mission bay plays burned the lord was behind that. it area that's being investigated you supervisors are being investigated i want to know what time the meeting is about housing i want to, so i can be there. i'm going to make copies using my inc. you can make copies i gave the papers to the
