planning department has guided us with our planning areas where we can provide more density, and then figuring out how we can make that housing more affordable to working families in the city is a huge challenge. we're going to put there. i put out a pretty aggressive 30,000 homes to be built by 2020 and that means five or six thousand a year each year until that 2020 is done. that's the building part and i believe we're going to get there. i believe we have enough inertia, enough land identified and so forth, but building is only one aspect. because what if we built and then the same number disappeared for different reasons that we didn't pay attention to? i'm a big strong supporter of our rent controlled units and that is why i joined with senator mark leno up in sacramento to reform the ellis act so you don't have

speculators coming in here and wiping out whole buildings of affordable units for people so that's hopefully going to get some traction. i also want to make sure that we work with our departments to find all the lands that are available that are wib our control that can be used to build housing because guess what? the biggest cost in building affordable housing is the land cost itself. and we've got, for example, 16 *t and mission now, finally the school district was able to make an agreement with us and that's just one of many parcels that people and entities have held on to that we are now identifying through kind of a land banking effort that we're trying to get. i'm asking banks and corporations to come in and assist us with land banking opportunities that buy down the cost of land so we can build housing that's affordable for working families and then we joined with supervisor farrell very strongly on the down payment assistance program that

targeted people that we really want and need to live in the city and that's something i'm going to let him talk a little bit about, but i'm excited to work with him on about because guess what, every time we've done it it's been used up immediately and it reflects the strong interest that people have to be here and serve the populations as they are served. >> unfortunately we've run out of time. i apologize to those of you who sent in questions and we weren't able to get to them. you can still submit questions and hopefully someone in the mayor's office will respond to you. just as we close very quickly, in less than a minute, supervisor farrell, do you have any final thoughts? >> i think the one thing i want to make sure everyone in the public knows as well is that as a city of san francisco we have done a lot to protect ourselves in the future financially as a city. you know as you look at the two legs of a long-term stool for municipalities across the country it's pension and

retiree health care obligations through proposition c in 2011 and now this year we are the only city in the thauds have passed both pension reform spbd health care at the ballot. that's something we're very proud of and to know we are focused on not just today but tomorrow and have a vision of san francisco knowing we are on solid footing going forward. i think it's important to know in large part because of those moves we have the highest credit rating as a city and it's important to know when you think about our budget and our long-term financial few fuer we have done a lot as a city and we're going to keep working on it and it's important to know that we are continuing to look at the future as well. >> mayor lee, your final comments. >> we are the innovation capital of the world and i am proud and humbled to be the mayor and have the privilege of working with the board of supervisors to figure out all these thingsment. i hope our audience through this show and all the meetings that we have understand all the complexities

we are faced with. i will work hard every day with the board to make sure we deal with those complexities but the ultimate outcome of being an even more successful city, a compassionate city, a city that welcomes everyone but also figures out solution oriented innovation is what our city should be remembered for everything that we do and make sure we're a city that works for everybody and appreciates all the diversity that is our strength. >> thank you very much. thanks to all of you who participated in today's online town hall, mayor ed lee, kate howard, mostly you, the public, we hope we have been able to answer some of your questions and please stay involved in this budget process. there's going to be lots more opportunities in different neighborhoods all around the city. i'm barbara taylor with kcbs radio and again thanks so much for joining us.

>> same house, same call? this motion is proud of. >> item 20 for ann leila chang to the police station. >> supervisor avalos. thank you president chiu i'm rising in support of angela support to continue in the police commission and angela has been a strong voice representing san francisco's diversity community. i appreciated working with her on a number of issues be the training of officers especially in crisis intervention making sure the police officers who have crisis get the health care that's been critical that responses is critical to lower the use of force with people who are having mental break downs and she has a strong voice in

making sure there's accountability and a push for training in the department. i work with her on especially human rights and language access she's worked strongly to make sure that the department has the greatest language access as possible and that's placed a strong roll in san francisco. she's also worked on helping to eliminate the backlogged on the filings bringing things down to about that 40 cases. that's something that is sixth and plays a strong role for the public that is seeking to have accountability and a push for greater community relationships. between the police and the

community to have age impact. it's rare that someone who has work to do will remain as an incumbent she's got much business to do and i hope i'll move to support her nomination and we'll be stronger as a community because she brings together the police efforts in san francisco >> supervisor tang. >> thank you president chiu. at our rules committee we concerned the appoint it was our duty to appoint a member it was difficult i want to thank you president chiu and for her service as well. we are as the rules committee

we're actually very lucky to have strong candidates it's good for the community there are people with expertise, however, because of victor's sensitive civil rights justice i want the board to consider a motion to promote him to the police commission. it conducted disciplinarian actions and i believe victor is the best candidate. we've heard about the extensive advocate for a champion for civil rights and on top of he

has experienced the justice system as a attorney and the prosecution and defensive is an asset is and the and through the cases of the public defender he was on the shooting team investigating the police procedures and you criminal liberate and he's fought and has a record for the defendants and the plaintiff. this is the debt of knowledge and fairness to the position he will bring. i want to thank people who came to provide public comment during the rules committee. i was expressed about their commitment to protecting the community and his ability to work with all types of

community. during my time on the board battling human trafficking is been addressed. this is a model program for the country. his expertise has helped with the are foreign consults and worked with the asian women's shelter and this is for human trafficking. he has prosecuted cases on folks and been an advocate for all community. he brings together coalitions he started the minority bar commission and started the equal justice society and served on the california state bar.

in addition to his professional work and community service victor has mentored many and that's the personal accounts from his ment tests they have become excellent so again, i want to thank you for the opportunity to thank the police commission everyone has acknowledged your incredible work ethic and she's set the bar high. and through her regular work has been excellent. however, a candidate like victor we can't ignore the expertise and competed he's shown and the positive impact he's made on the community and sit back and do nothing we will be lucky to have

him. victor previously applied to serve on the police commission in 2004 and in rules committee when there's more applicant we've encouraged applicant to reapply i want to give victor the opportunity to serve on the commission. with that, colleagues i'd like to request and make a motion and after consideration to appoint mr. wong to the police commission >> supervisor tang is making a motion to have victor's name on the vote. >> supervisor mar. thank you >> thank you president chiu i'd like to speak again that motion i don't feel that voting against the motion is i know directly of

his incredible work i hope i've mentioned this to the mayor's office with the vacancy to fill carole king's seat that's a strong consideration but i'll speak in favor of angela's record i've known her for years not only in the chinese americans work but i speak in the rules committees support for angela chang. i feel her voice on the police commission is needed more than ever she's a hardworking person and we need that on the police commission. we reappointed dr. jill marshall and angela deserves to be

reappointed because of her record and strong commitment to transparence socy and responderness to all people who come before the police commission. i want to acknowledge that issues like this can put the different part of the chinese and that community together there was not a division within the community and by continuing to support victor our community can be united in promoting strong women of color and victor as well. i want to say that our public defender mentioned that angela is providing a key voice for the under served and underrepresented voices on the

police commission and by not reappointing her we lose the strong voice along with others. i want to say many women's groups are asking for strong representation for gender imbalances in power and i think angela understands that the power on a police commission or within the police and justice system within the city and to lose sentence of women's voices in power will be a great loss to the police commission and city as well. the asian caucus dinner they worked with the gay organizing relationship there is so much receptor for angela to helping

to mobiles the coalitions of people to give voices to the young people that stand up for their rights we can't have a better police commissioners than angela chang i ask for a recommendation of reappointing her for another 4 years (clapping.) i want to remind members in the chamber you know, we have a board rule it probable causes responses. supervisor mar >> thank you. >> supervisor campos

thank you, mr. president. you know, first of all, i want to say we're lucky to have two outstanding candidates and when faced with this precinct it's not easy to know the right approach. but i believe that when you have an issue of whether or not someone should be reappointed the focus is on whether or not that individual has done the job that he or she has been assigned to do and if the roles were different and we were talking about the reappointment of victor i want want to know has that individual has done the work. in this case of angela chang having worked closely with the police commission and police department you're not going to

find a harder working police commissioner or someone that takes time to reach out to diverse communities and make sure that people from every community that have a voice and so for me, the question in this matter is simply has angela chang done the work you expect of a san francisco police commission that's the ultimate question. my beef is that every measure angela chang has done that. that's not to took anything away from victor wong. if the roles were referred i would ask that same question. it's also important supervisor mar's mentioned this i was especially impacted by the

communications i've received from various women's groups about the importance of having women in those positions and especially a woman of color. so i will be voting against the motion not because i have anything against the candidate the other candidate should be on the police commission to the extent the mayor can fulfill that maybe both on the police commission but i believe we should reward good work and when someone has done everything asked of that you should honor that and revote them in >> supervisor yee thank you president chiu. >> as you see from the discussion both candidates are individuals that want to be on the commission are highly
