san francisco employees bill of rights you remember i proposed the family friendly work ordinance our city became the first in the country to create the rights of parents and kaefrz to ask for flexible work arrangement and president obama issued an executive director providing this same right to over 2 million federal workers. as part of the first draft of the legislation we included provisions to address predicable scalds but the topic was complicated so i asks the working laborser and others to address this topic. during those discussions we've learned how precinct - how unpredictable and abuse i have

policies can undermine health and we've heard from excellent employers that figured out how to management the predictable schedule for the lives off our workers when supervisor mar and i learned we had two coalitions to address many of the ideas we've considered overlap we decided to join forces to table those and i'm pleased to serve as supervisor mar co-sponsoring that addresses two elements of the workers bill of rights i'mably with the task force to address the remaining policies to make no mistake about it work places for precinct for workers in our city we have too many residents and families jordanian multiple jobs juggling that has

unreasonable on call practices. with our combined practice we look forward to have san francisco lead the way and thank you, again those of you who have worked with us. thank you, mr. president and commissioner mar back to finishing >> thank you president chiu and mrs. supervisor campos and supervisor avalos for coworker i want to shout out to jobs for justice michelle and the coalition we've been working with we'll be telling many of the stories of the part time workers and in september we look forward to a lively dialog how we can list up the part time and low wage earners to joy the fruits of the city this is about fairness and equal treatment for many part time workers.

the next item i'm introducing with supervisor avalos is part of this effort to make sure that we protect the soul of the city and as a growing gap how many people are being pushed out the city by speculators so along with the alliance of california or ace i'm introducing a registry of splarlts or a registry those are properties being bought up by the speculators and transcribing to the foreclosures or through real estate sales become the sites of evictions i'm calling this a speculator registry since 2008

many families have lost their homes to foreclosures approximately 4 thousand families have lost their homes in san francisco a fraction were sold through a public auction that ours at the backside of city hall san francisco falls behind i a fraction of o foreclosures will go to auction according the price water house the calm before the storm we can expect another wave of the foreclosures in the next year that end up in the auctioned behind city hall the city has an interest in helping residential and commercial owners and speculators evictions insuring that if a foreclosure can't be

pretend all fees and foreclosure fees are paid to the city and county of san francisco and in monitoring distress to make sure their well maiden and not cause blight in the community those properties in default and r e o properties effectively help with the processes because of the adequacy of the data on all properties that there will monitor residential properties that are subject to foreclosure by requiring lender who foreclosure on a residential property to register the property and provide contact information for the people responsible for the foreclosure process and require the

purchaser to update the registration about the subject sales or any dwelling unit at a foreclosure sale to allow the city to monitor speculation and including the withdrawal of affordable housing. and finally the spectacular register authorizes the fee to offset the registry and provide a fee for failure to update the information >> this is the first 31st night out and the community policy partnering in the richmond district at our richmond district on 6 and geary we'll be having the crime dog and the sf

the second to explore with various departments whether or not legislation is appropriate to require that probably new construction and multi unit buildings have water meters for each invented unit right away right now you can build a multi unit building that's not mediations for water there's no incentive to conservation water or know how much water so use for older buildings it's infeasible to shift over to individual meters but at a minimum we should look at this for new construction i was surprised to learn that's not a requirement we will receive a status on increasing the number

of watering circling and water use the puc has a number of plans but i think we're behind in terms of where we should be. i'll be joining supervisor breed p who will be speaking and sponsoring the approval the mta contracted to pretty much the next generation of light rail vehicles. this is incredibly exist we don't have enough light rail vehicles they breakdown and have defects and riders see the results everyday in the subway on the sunset at the t at balboa station i'm excited about this next generation in terms of having more l rb and having the

ability to link and delink to have three and four tyrone's in the subway it i'm very excited about this and also that undermines the importance of transit for the funding we're going to have to recomment to funding our transportation and the rest i'll submit >> thank you, supervisor wiener. supervisor yee. >> commissioner white. >> supervisor yee will commissioner white. >> supervisor avalos >> thank you. i have 3 items for introduction. i'm continuing the saga around the mortgage reduction my office has been gleaned i have legislation for the resolution that was before us earlier this month. actually, the legislation will be creating or directing the

city attorney to negotiate with the city of richmond w the creation and will lead us to voting an ordinance i'll have the terms in place for the joint powers authority the resolution also creates terms for the negotiations we want to make sure that the questions people have had so far can get built into how we perform to joint powers authority while indemnify and cover the costs through the j pa foshgs for the eminent domain for are mortgages they'll not have the power to use eminent domain on private property only eminent domain in mortgages with consent from the homeowner it's the hope that negotiating this will affiliate many of the concerns people have

expressed we're looking at to the future where most of san francisco is not experiencing the foreclosure and underwater homes like altercating other communities around the bay area there's the potential of it happening again and neighborhoods in san francisco especially on the southeast and southern part of san francisco hair many homes under a water that needs support from the city. so this resolution would direct the city attorney to negotiate the terms also working in under the awe that his the mayor's office of housing we want to make sure that the program that is supporting households against foreclosures and underwater homes has the support of mayor's office of housing. i have a couple of other items i have a letter of inquirey about

the intent of the san francisco employee retirement system to televise their meetings here in the city hall. earlier this year there was a commitment experienced by the retirement board yet not seen progress made spitting despite there's money in the budget for this to happen we want to make sure we move forward as we deliberate on the respecter fund this have been done under the scrutiny of television and under the eyes and transparency so i'm hoping that will be responded to before we could be on september 2nd. the last item for introduction is i'm excited about in the excelsior district we have our native son jerry garcia our

famous son his birthday is august 1st he was born in 1942 we'll be celebrating the jerry day at the jerry garcia amphitheater. what's unique we've actually finally moving forward on creating plaques in the homes of jerry gary's in the excelsior district on amazon in the excelsior and 87 herself ton in the excelsior. he grew up there and went to school and the balboa high school. we want to show what the excelsior has been able to create often over looked in many parts of san francisco and the plaques will help to showcase the talent. and we're hoping the plaques

will be installed by next year's the 50th anniversary of the graet grateful full dead he was one of the founding members of the grateful full dead >> thank you supervisor breed. >> colleagues, i have one item i'm excelling excited by introducing legislation that will allow many to expand its expire fleet of trains. it this is a one billion dollars investment the contract is up to two hundred and 60 new light rail cars for the enable one hundred and 51 to replace our entire fleet and an additional 81. the trains will be built and the evidence locally in sacramento and more reliable and more efficient and safer and cheaper to operate and more flexible and projected to run over ten times

longer than 59 thousand miles instead of four or five thousand miles before repair their come in below purchase price this is a product of years of work it's badly needed and i'm happy to see it come to fruition i've been speaking about this since i became supervisor i went out into the upper and lower hate almost in every instance the biggest concern of my constituents was the constantly can you fix the injudged now bear in mind over 40 thousand people it carries over day it is the single busiest line and it's consistently detailed and overcrowded i'll tell people

have faith so for the past year and a half i've made the m is l and j and all of muni one of any highest priorities we work with the mta staff for the mini prompt for the inner sunset and supervisor wiener and i developed seating and we've held hearing for the train replacement i've worked with mta director john to launch shelter train service on the ervin parts and helped to secure the funding for the mta and local funding we've where else about this so many times i think my readers are tired of hearing about it and clearly they want action but

i keep writing there about this it is a monumental step for making muni a step one priority a multi million dollars creation for subway lines this is probably the single greater thing we can do for muni riders we have many trains but many are damaged so often because of they're no to the call of the chair operating doors we generally only have one hundred and 10 trains available for service i think we remember supervisor wiener went through the camera and i won't make the face it was hilarious but the lack of reliable trains is what causes the details and over

crawford u crowding and frustration muni riders face we're in the process of replacing our entire bus fleet the rubber tire side and i have supported those contracts with this contract we'll have a full reliable fleet of 21st century trains. i'm critically proud to be port part ever this effort and i want to thank john mta director for transit for his hard work and for everything he does to improve our fleet and thank you, supervisor wiener and supervisor mar and supervisor tang the transportation authority staff and everyone that has helped. i know that supervisor wiener gave us the bad news we don't

have the money but i'm optimistic that some of the efforts through the transportation authority and other things we're doing as a board and as a city will help us to get to that point i look forward to our support and transportation authority >> thank you supervisor breed. supervisor campos thank you madam clerk and i want to begin by saying that i know this is our last meeting before we go into our very short recess i wish everyone a well rested recess but i'm here to talk about two pieces two items that i believe are very important beginning with an item that we are introducing a piece of legislation to continue to address the issue of the

affordability crisis and the crisis we have here not city and county of san francisco. the fact is not we're not entirely clear of the true stent of the crisis we're facing. the true scope of the displacement phasing san franciscans is not entirely clear because even though we have the numbers when it comes to evictions one of the items that is displacing people is the issue of buy out the landlord offers the tenant a monetary sum for the tenant to leave the you are talking about this is some time something that happens outside the former eviction process? a loophole and under

the san francisco represent control owners the landlord must have one of the 50 reasons to evict a tenant some of the reasons are based on the alex action of the tenant like failing to pay rent an example of a no fault eviction a landlord wants to move into a unit the san francisco scheme was carefully crafted to protect tenants and rental e rent control units in san francisco. and buy outs are a loophole around the protections they allow landlords to e avoid an eviction by offering a tenants to vacant a unit without having to go through the formal eviction process and have to

assert one thought just causes we know that protecting the housing stock in san francisco is a major component of addressing our housing crisis and, in fact, the housing unit compose more than 50 percent of the housing. notwithstanding the forest by the board of supervisors and mayor ed lee and tom and others our efforts to academy the ellis act in sacramento has failed new we must continue to act locally to protect our tenants. we don't really know the full stent of the existence of buy outs but we know from talking to our advocates and the record that was issued by the budget

analysts we know the beauty outs could be 5 or 6 or 7 beauty outs it's a significant issue the legislation i'll introducing is a balanced piece of legislation that does a number of things to provide the landlords information at least 45 days prior to negotiations and landlord to submit a written agreement in material terms of an agreement including an oral agreement within 7 days of a buy out agreement and the power to have administration action against a landlord that fails to do either of the board and enlisted the tenants a right to bring a lawsuit for failing to

bringing up the buy out policies and requires the rent board to post buy out armies on its a reasonable degree of medical certainty e website and beginning in 2016 that report to the board of supervisors of the and a half of but out and finally the legislation compassed the same prohibitions first, it accomplishes the requiring of beauty outs with the rent board we will finally have the data to actually understand the level of displacement happening through butte buy outs it will help is in the resolution of creating the displacement. second oftentimes with had a

lymph gland offers a tenant there's an imbalance of power between the landlord and the tenant this is especially the case which the tenant has limited english skills. i have heard many times from many residents stories of a attended accepting a small buy out offer to vacate the unit that is illegal what the tenant would be entitled to. this balances and levels the playing field so the tenant understand their rights before entering into negotiations this will help to balance the inequality that is occurring in places like the mission. and finally this legislation will help protect san francisco's rent control housing our stock of rent control housing will be protected by

preventing landlord from concord condominium conversion in the same manner as the landlord is prevented from concord converting the landlord would not be able to convert a condo n for 10 years and not been able to condo convert at meantime if he or she makes a beauty outing buy out to a senior or ill person. i look forward to seeing this piefks legislation that deals with buy outs addresses the affordability crisis we're facing. i want to thank my co-sponsors as well as the organization that have worked with me to draft that piece of legislation the tenants units this housing rights committee and the

chinatown community center and the tenderloin clinic and the eviction free san francisco. i also want to especially thank our city attorney's office which has been working diligently on this piece of legislation and a number of other pieces of legislation we've put forward i know we've taken up a lot of time of our city attorney's office and their work is especially appreciate. the final issue is something that is happening in my district. you've probably read about in the paper the planned parenthood clinic located in my district in the mission. i want to provide some context for what's happening. in 193 affidavit gun was shot and k
