is rehabbed when we do work at west side court and holly court and west point and those elements that have been delipidated for many many years i want to emphasize the importance of not expecting services to find their way or people to find their way to where services are it is difficult it fourth how many services are available all over the city we're using those services and bringing them directly to the community room of the public housing development we're going to be bringing hope to the public housing residents and i look forward to the day when we change the way this city does business were our resident and no longer being operating in isolation thank you to olsen lee and highs team and hud and

have stood instead of in the water department's wants and this needs of the resident for many in reinforces i'm hoping we're actually dlifrp i delivering on some of them as this demonstrates so and so two organizations at citywide council of senior disabled residents and the housing tenants association behind me is beverly and joyce armstrong (clapping). >> and we thank them we thank them trembling fewer support in getting us to this point because they've heard a lot of promises over the years we were just like another set of promises but at this point, we're going to be delivering on the promises but beverly and joyce i'm going to ask more of your patience i'm going to ask for your patience

some suggestions for you all you can share with president obama the 3 things anything that anyone needs ask us and we'll be there thank you (clapping.) >> the strength of the jurisdiction wide organizations is that they're elected by the tenants and the buildings or developments to represent so we're internal to it we ourselves are tenants we live in the buildings and developments at threat with the conversions to rad rad didn't have a provision for the continued existence of those jurisdictions wide counsels this you give us a lot of worry about who is there to advocate for them who is there to you think if i them together so their voice is heard whatever the issue regardless of who is managing them who owns

them the tenants were not sold all right. so they need their advocacy that's what we're here for so mayor ed lee and secretary castro we need to fix this okay (laughter) we need to save our jurisdiction wide our duties is to represent the tenants in the housing in every aspect of their lives and to take that away from them leaves them sloimentd and weak take us seriously we need the continuation of those organizations thank you.
