space will be from the central and southern waterfront mission bay will complete one thousand 3 hundred and 40 residential unit this year with over 20th century 2 thousand more in the coming years that's not only exciting news to the neighborhood there's more exciting news for that particularly areas the golden gate warriors are coming home to san francisco the san francisco giants are working to entitle new homes and offices and retail space to serve mission bay and this november voters will have an opportunity to move pier 70s development forward and south of pier 70 the energy company is 4r50r9d to a power site and build inc. is working to develop

another plan linked to open space along the bay and i and all of this new development will enter sect with the hunters point shipyard and candle stick point we'll added over 12 though new homes within reach of our working families so i told you it's not just housing housing is the only thing that working families need it's not the only thing if he wanted families to say and biz businesses to come we need to work on the public school system we can possible have we have one of the top performing urban if not in the nation, we need to continue our investment that's why this november we're asking san franciscan to consider renewal

of two incredible resources the children's fund and the richmond fund by bringing those two funds together we'll drive a children's agenda for the city and by the way, it's great in news when businesses step up like benny hoff with their contribution to the any idea and sf and companies taking a one year pledge of allegiance to currently all our schools in the city and county of san francisco to make sure that no teacher and principle has to reach into their pocketed to buy school supplies for the kids and transportation too is a key factor of affordability that's why we were making tricks we have traffic projects if you're neighborhood and add some 10

miles of new and improved bicycling bike lanes and 50 additional miles by 2018 we proved our bike share program 2 thousand san franciscans members plus and short term memberships we day viewed the bike progress we should be able to do this not only in san francisco but regionally and construction is well underway from the spa and it's on time and within budget contrary to you all the negative media that we've received this is going very, very well and that central subway will definitely reduce the traffic times and increase ridership between chinatown and south of market when it as opposed to opens up in 2019 i want to leave i with an

understanding of what has to happen in the next 10 years with the amount of jobs and housing weigh to see in san francisco we need to keep reviving in our transportation system that's why you see a 5 hundred thousand there's bond prolapse a does not raise our property taxes isn't that credible we can raise the bond and keep the discipline now you get another $500,000 to match we've sfliftd our hospitals and fire stations and very badly needed auxiliary wart system in mission bay this is from the same planning we have not only not raising property tax we've counterfeit our services it is the first step in

a $10 billion project in the next 10 years the cost of ignoring munis problems and fatally further behind on the conditions of our street and jamming more people into the offer crowded streetcars is extremely high thank to my transportation task force we have a map to learn state and local money and fund our system in a responsible and sustainable way if we shoulder the transportation challenges that will begin with this $500 million transportation bond we'll be able to meet the needs of the future so ladies and gentlemen, where do we go from last year, we discussed how to keep the momentum going not only have we created jobs for thirty
