meet the grave housing we're delivering affordable housing on site and off sight and in creative ways for example, month mesoso eric is providing 32 bedroom units at selma and after 28 happen at that time, in ocean view habitat was partnered to nearly double all their affordable units and bryan spear has created an off site project on market street this has challenged my office to think more creatively to help meet our goals we're making progress also on the pledge i made to fix public housing earlier this year

we welcomed families to one hundred and 7 new high quality homes in hunter's view they'll build over one hundred and 50 units and mrs. affordable housing and market rate homes and continue with alice griffith and sunnyvale to replace those distressed housing units with mixed use homes in addition to our sustainable editions we're addressing the urban capital needs across the portfolio under a new hud program called rental assistance demonstration we call rad and under rad the city will rehabilitate or preserve some 3 thousand 5 hundred units of important stock and learning the funds to deliver more and by the

way, if you've read the paper we're trying to take care of our homeless the veterans yesterday we announced the opening of 250 kearny streets one hundred and 50 unit dedicated to our chronic homeless in the next two years we're going to end chronic homelessness for our veterans how about that for fleet week and doing that with great partnering (clapping) not just the veteran vouchers but having our tech agencies to help fund and provide fortunes for the veterans i've emigrate sf city and airbnb they're coming in and putting in the furniture on kearny street today, i want to focus on two of our major growth areas transbay

and the waterfront at transbay center we've been able to build a brand new inclusive neighborhood 35 percent of the housing will be affordable to very low and moderate income homes one thousand 2 hundred homes in that area by 2020 and even though transbay is not a housing focused plan together with roipt this will accommodate 8 house homes by 2040 and, of course, it's workforce will troid provide 35 percent of our employment and the southern waterfront is another place with changes 22 percent of our residential growth, thirty percent of our jobs, and 6 hundred and 74 acres of new open

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 thousand working san franciscans we've exceeded your goal of employing 7 thousand youth to the youth for jobs program this summer and going year-round and built over 3 thousand homes with 25 powers of them permanently affordable and improved more than 20 miles of street with pedestrian improvements and bike lanes and tricked over $77 million to public education in richmond fund last year funding prearts and preschool arts music and sport and library programs but we need to push forward and all out forefront that will insure that san francisco remains affordable to our residents and keep the jobs going talk about the workspace and find the balance in the

coming year but important importantly raise the minimum wage to provide fair ways and means to our workers i know when i told to talk about talk with the workers you'll find out they work more than one job so raising the minimum wage is important please join me in supporting prop j we need to keep supporting our housing prop k incorporated it's goals into our projects a mixed of incomes providing inclusionary on site where they can happen i need you to support our youth and continue to supporting them to build a difference and ready pipeline and pass prop c and keep investing in the businesses in our area we need to ban together the future projects i need you and our development

partners to be a piece of this very serious funding pulls and again let's pass prop a the transportation bond so people can move around the city the right way today i've spoken about what is unhappy in san francisco buried but some of the issues can only be solved within our 49 square miles we need to push forward on housing, jobs, education, transportation, and regional level housing our workforce is a regional exchange demands regimeal solutions and lincoln housing with jobs under a robust transportation system in conjunction with a equality education where anyone can access so help us achieve those goals we have here throughout the region and build

relationships with our friends in san jose and oakland >> our housing goals have to be born out you have your advocacy and put that aurjtd or argument to the bay area cities and counties cities as well if i ask you to be vocal to our needs. >> and your transportation chances and the caliber for the high speed rail and the expansion of the bart system you know you have to think backing in 1951 did bay area council study did rapid transit system for the bay area 65 years later that very system is the backbone of our entire region and it's story provides a lesson of what power we have when we all work together we can't do it alone here in san francisco we'll have to keep trying our best in the years of continued

population growth to take the opportunity to make our san francisco city stroerng ever the plans and policies we put in place for housing and economic growth and transportation and for state ability we'll definitely determine years to come whether we fair with respect to diversity, economic justice and opportunity for all i know we can and together we can assure that san francisco remains where it can be affordable to all of us thank you for the opportunity to be speaking speaking to you this morning

>> hi, i'm lawrence corn field. welcome to building san francisco. we have a special series, stay safe. we're looking at earthquake issues. and today we're going to be talking with a residential building owner about what

residential building owners and tenants can and should do before earthquakes and after earthquakes. ♪ ♪ >> we're here at this wonderful spur exhibit on mission street in san francisco and i have with me today my good friend george. thanks for joining me, george. and george has for a long time owned residential property here in san francisco. and we want to talk about apartment buildings and what the owner's responsibilities might be and what they expect their tenants to do. and let's start by talking a little bit about what owners can do before an earthquake and then maybe after an earthquake. >> well, the first thing, lawrence, would be to get together with your tenants and see if they have earthquake

insurance or any renters insurance in place because that's going to be key to protecting them in the event of a quake. >> and renters insurance, there are two kinds of insurance. renters insurance coffers damage to goods and content and so forth. earthquake insurance is a separate policy you get after you get renters insurance through the california earthquake authority, very inexpensive. and it helps owners and it helps tenants because it gives relocation costs and it pays their rent. this is a huge impact on building owners. >> it's huge, it really is. you know, a lot of owners don't realize that, you know, when there is an earthquake, their money flow is going to stop. how are they going to pay their mortgages, how are they going to pay their other bills, how are they going to live? >> what else can property owners do in residential rental housing before an earthquake? >> well, the first thing you want to do is get your property assessed. find out what the geology is at your site. get an expert in to look at

structural and nonstructural losses. the structural losses, a lot of times, aren't going to be that bad if you prepare. an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. get in there and get your property assessed and figure it out. >> so, what is a nonstructural issue that might cause losses? >> well, you know, pipes, for instance. pipes will whip around during an earthquake. and if they're anchored in more numerous locations, that whipping won't cause a breakage that will cause a flood. >> i've heard water damage is a major, major problem after earthquakes actually. >> it is. that's one of the big things. a lot of things falling over, ceilings collapsing. but all of this can be prevented by an expert coming in and assessing where those problem areas and often the fixes are really, really cheap. >> who do you call when you want to have that kind of assessment or evaluation done? >> the structural engineering community is great.

we have the structural engineers association of northern california right here in san francisco. they're a wealth of information and resources. >> what kinds of things might you encourage tenants to do besides simply get tenants renters insurance and earthquake insurance, what else do you think tenants should do? >> i think it's really important to know if they happen to be in the building where is the safest place for them to go when the shaking starts. if they're out of the building, whats' their continuity plan for connecting with family? they should give their emergency contact information to their resident manager so that the resident manager knows how to get in touch. and have emergency supplies on hand. the tenants should be responsible to have their extra water and flashlights and bandages and know how to use a toilet when there's no sewage and water flows down. and the owners of the building should be proactive in that regard as well.

>> so, george, thank you so much for joining us. that was really great. and thanks to spur for hosting us here in this wonderful exhibit. and thank you for joining u (clapping.) >> so what a glories day (clapping) renee dunn martin who is responsible for today's event promised we she's never, ever had rain on a day like today whatever between her and the guys those let's give her an applause (clapping.) it's incredible to see all of you here today, it's amazing some of you know today is an important jewish holiday i got
