that is a karen batting it position we're exploiting our actions so this is a good start thank you very much. >> hi my name is andy blue and i'm with the plazas 16 coalition we have not had a change to vote but one thing the plaza 167 coalition cares about it affordable housing i'm here to add my voice in support of the supervisor kim's reporting ordinance the city government and it's residents know how the city is meeting it's housing policies and established in the housing elements the general plan and last november prop k past overwhelmingly it monitor the process towards the goal and

track development by affordability on a regular basis then once we gather the data we must prioritize the knowledge of affordable housing to erase that deficit without delay the organizations organized an event eat max presentation of their community benefits package 1979 provision on march evening 3 willed and 50 to 4 people showed up to say we want affordable housing in the midst the myths has seen you market rate housing being built that is destroying the neighborhood of the san francisco so let's get the data and then let's build affordable housing and prioritize affordable

housing and maybe let's create a housing imbalance in favor of affordable housing thank you very much. >> is there any additional public comment. >> okay public comment is closed and opening up to commissioners commissioner wu. >> thank you i'm very supportive of this piece of legislation let's get to the amendments so i'm happy to support the change of the annual cycle to march first and september 1st to accept the planning department's recommendations on how to address neighborhood notification groups and to include the supervisors plan areas as a category i think that it is - we've really start to be sophisticated in understanding affordable housing it started with the

remain pipeline comparing our development to the arena goals and prop k now using this as a tool in addition to the other reports that the planning department does with regard to asking the department to really prioritize this i think there is noubtd that affordable housing is the number one goal so i'll definitely ask the department to reprioritize the report in particular knowing that may have invocations for other reports there is specific detail i believe it calls for the first report probation officers to be posted thirty days after the mayors signature illicit turn to the supervisors office to ask when you think an appropriate first hearing will it be on the march or september calendar or a

date closer to when it's posted? >> we actually haven't discussed the first hamburger rather that the first report comes out as specified in the legislation thirty days after the mayors signature i'll have to go back and check in when the first hearing. >> i'm flexibility there will be some decision between the departments and supervisors offices. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i'm generally supportive i think that knowledge is a good thing i have a few comments talking about monitoring the balance asian-american i'm in favor of all new housing market rate and affordable housing they're linked luring you're going to have more market rate than affordable housing because it costs money to build housing and private mandating pays for the

fund out of the costs of the saddles affordable housing on gets built governmental fund fund from nonprofits or the inclusionary percentage we pass at a recent make sure prop c that was 12 period of time offsite we have to be cleaver to find ways to would build affordable housing and pointing out it was a good thing to find out about but more important to find solutions there are places in alameda county where their meeting their rather than with market rate because the cost of housing is low enough to be affordable with that people with moderate incomes in the eastern alameda

county with dennis herrera listen and livermore a lot of housing being build in alameda county is done well, because the land is cheap and the only thing we have in the way of land the los angeles police department that the city of san francisco owns or private land not being build or parklands i think we have to utilize those areas and try to work with the developers with low land costs with affordable for sale are the most affordable so that's a bigger view of the whole thing but i'm a little bit confused of the present reporting we get the 3 housing inventory report quarterly and the pipeline and

the annual housing element reporting and those seems to say all the same things so what are we adding with the report this is a question for staff or is the public not getting the information we have the doubt it tells us how much above market rate or market rate of different levels of affordability with every project. >> you'll those reports are available to the public this new report adds some details p that breaks down what we report the breakdown of the categories breakdown based on geographics and breaks down unit losses and also then establishes the definition for the matches that is basically affordable housing divided by all housing developed

and this is a metric thirty thirty percent. >> commissioners, if i may in addition what was mentioned a detailed breakdown it requires us to look at the bam citywide between affordable and market rate but it requires us to look at a 10 year period. >> i think i noticed that. >> so it looks at twice a year we'll look back ten years and see the balance that is created over the last 10 years that's different. >> no, i think that is useful the reports focus on the situation i think a narrower period of time the 10 year report gives the time you know period you can looked trend over a longer than period that's good, i have a few more remarks i heard this legislation will point out really giving the

facts on evictions has there been and the loss of units through conversions or buyers or other units are lost we get auto a of those in various reports that there combine the reports in one report i think that's probably a good thing i'm fine with the amendments march and cement are fine trying to list something that has to answer to any possible body imitating having it available to all neighborhoods and groups and the general public comment is in easy form is good, i think we'll move up to the period from the mayors signature by prioritizing this and moving someone else back so probably that's not the

worst thing but i think that you know i'll always be in favor of voting for the record housing the buyers of the new units are interested in buying in san francisco first and the units are created as a response to that demand it's not the other way around there are going to be here as long as the economy is good they'll expedite for the existing stock which is a problem people are getting evicted so new housing is a good thing and the other thing that was mentioned a fumentsz we have to be careful it's our neighborhood nobody owns a neighborhood ethnicity groups are changed until 60 or 65 it

was highly irish and almost entirely white now asian you can say the same thing about north beach with the it i italy we have is to be welcoming and work with them and hopefully, they'll join in being members of the community and being positive interest rates or contributor the more we create homeownership situations when you own a place no one kicks you out then we don't have to worry about those things the moss more we make ownership in san francisco sold to owners in san francisco the better off and i see this comments about the problems of fires which we've heard about we have to have a strategy to upgrade the unit seismically

fire safety and pledge allegiance easy electrical and somehow work with revising those units of they're sold on the market and create at least the same number of affordable units i think everyone knows that. >> commissioner richards. >> i have several a followup open the commissioners comments if we continue to do things we're perpetuating a problem that is where the monitoring balance legislation comes in i want to draw a distinction between people leaving like irish in the 50s and 60s and people not leaving voluntarily not been able to afford their place there is a distinction i think we understand we're in the middle of a housing crisis the citizen we want to act now this

is good government and with decisions based on good data helps us to do our job better with the latino president said we looked at the economical report that creates a report so this report is american people offshoot of the economic report we did so well we have a housing crisis now i think i don't know if february 5th was a week we sat here we didn't have this legislation we didn't know the details and asked specifically did we get resources the answer was no i support the recommendation to increase or ask for a budget of the alleged head count it is impervious i'd rather over shot than under shoot i'm no support of a higher

none you might want to cross train the people that does this report so there's no hiccuped the recommended cycle but i i know that there's discussion of a bond measure on november ballot i think a goal to shoot for a preliminary report and the final report may 1st and june one you're behind the curve and coming lastly i think that makes sense we have 20 percent of people of objectives with respect being met and it was mentioned another data objectives i didn't think about around the businesses and jobs, etc. working with the supervisors office to see if

there's anything else oh, one other thing the house in bruno heights an illegal unit to $8,000 in rent i'll encourage that taking illegal unit off the market through legally capping and plumbing be included in a measure these are things we'll probably miss. >> commissioner hillis. >> excuse me. i'm supportive this is great to have data i agree with a lot of people that talked about data is good we kind of know the issue we're in an affordability housing crisis that will be good to have more data i kind of add ftes to tell

us what we know week in and other it is equivalent we have a heirs constitutional rights it is everywhere in the city ultimately we have to expand a house in the sunset is that affordable to who that making what kind of income or a teacher and a nurse afford to buy a house in san francisco i hope we don't wait for that data we talked about an affordable housing bond we'll be supportive but by the time that passes and that funding we're building the housing that is years dune the road and not helping the problem like the ellis act needs to be picked up it is interesting i saw accident apartment

associations magazine the other day the average prices of register housing is $250,000 that's a landlord to buy housing much cheaper than that takes to buy a housing north of $500,000 we've talked about that and exploring behind that housing and protecting the folks that are in that housing having nonprofits buy existing houses rather than buying something at the short-term again, i support this but i don't feel like we're doing much by protest, appeals or objections it we need to act and take on the existing ideas of building affordable housing by now ideas i'm supportive. >> commissioner moore. >> i'm supportive i believe we need to put a high tell us over

and over the function and do it immediately i'd like to see if the director nodes support from this commission providing a letter to the mayor to amend the budget to use the ability to add the ftes who definitely support you and write a letter awhile supporting it. >> >> commissioners that will helpful just to reiterate it is not so much a resource but a timing issue that stroked the represents because of the time it takes to hire staff but to prioritize this i'm happy to do that a couple of comments the kind of process the legislation calls for a report twice a year with our recommendation i support march and september but the first year for the

statistics to come out fairly quickly and thirty dates days from the mayors signature about mid may so be in position the numerical figures i don't know if we have the full written go report but have the numbers that everyone is interested in and the full written report open september 1st and march first that's the approach we're going ton and i think to commissioner hilliss comments we've been working since the boston prop k passed a number of ways to increase the housing affordability that this is only one way to enforce prop k we're working on 0 the mayor's office of housing to increase

affordability and working in the central selma we say an informational hearing to propose to meet even though 1/3rd goal in central selma so number of ways to the actual data in front of you again the timing it looks at probably mid to late may we'll have the first numerical report to you. >> i'll wrap up by that's why you and bringing up a lovely of provided to a high priority and my dream for san francisco we're able to act proactively and i feel like we're trying to steer this from behind a more clock of information is helpful to thank you. >> we don't have a motion commissioner wu. >> move to recommend approval

with the reports march first and september 1st with the planning department's recommendation on neighborhood notification groups with the inclusion of plan areas as a category for information and urging the department to reprioritize resources to get the report done. >> second. >> thirty days after. >> second. >> so commissioners is there a motion and a second to adapt a recommendation for approval commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner moore commissioner richards commissioner wu commissioner president fong so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 6 to zero would the commission congratulations - (clapping) would the constriction like to take a .

of san francisco pshgsz and anticipating of the san francisco municipal transportation agency as well as debbie senior citizen environmental planner to receive comments on the draft environmental impact report for case the second street a summit is to the bicycle eir safe is not here to answer comments they'll be transcribed in the responses in the document or rtc that responds to all verbal comments as well written comments received on the eir the rthorax t c responses to the hearing transcript this not an approval or disapproval in hearing to consider this projects will be held before the

comment (calling names). >> i want thank you for your patience i've benefit seating here as you've been seating here as well i've enjoyed listening i've not for the project i believe the environmental impact report didn't do enough about the congestion which i think about occur as a result of the project 2 on bryan street an article in the chronicle this is the busy i did intersection in san francisco and hundreds and hundreds of people relief san francisco to go to the east bay in the in the evening with the giants games and the commemorating is

dramatic and that's where i live in the area so i don't think the proposal is taking a look at what those people that live is oakland i sympathy emphasize about how to get home many, many more cars id el bumper to bumper with about carbon dioxide and it makes me feel sorry for them i think that is going to get worse because of the increased activity in mission bay it is part of california with the medical center 7 thousand employees it just opened coming of the warriors stadium which they're expecting to have 2 hundred events a year

way to get go people they're coming from the east bay it is much more congested i believe than when the project was originally conceived so i that's my major interest and the one i want to life leave with you as we review the project to be considered thank you. >> hello i'm available to answer any questions dorothy dana i and kendall live in an historic building dribble adjacent to second it was the hub he was talking about i have since i have retalk about

the project the proposal calls for building go generous bicycle lanes in both distributors and reducing the auto. >> bus travel lanes to two lanes one lane in each direction buses basically now are too large for one lane i don't know what they're to do you given in c given the project is described would result in the street functioning more like a mall than a bids street big bulk unit for bicycles it going to have more generous sidewalks and so on and so forth so it will be different than the second street that we're used to i assumed in getting the eir that their would be somehow a

decision about the alcoholic gridlock that exists on second street during week days rush; however, hour to 3 to 78 clock at night cars going down second street to get to fulsome and then there are cars that are coming up bryant and second street they want to get to the long transpire adjacent to our building and not to get into the expressway well, the problem with the expressway is number one when you get up to the entrance you can't just drive out there you have to wait there's other traffic coming so this line goes a long way down 3wr0i7b9 street and long way down second street

and goes on and on the other night i called the police i said this is a nuisance i'm a taxpayer there's been fidgeting and shouting and career honking going on from twoks in the afternoon i'm giving you the sceney because how could this situation possibly fit into the kind of project you're talking about it didn't work in the big city environment that's what needs to be addressed. >> thanks ma'am our time is up. >> offering that's what the thing was okay. okay can i put a little tiny thing you, you motive think of during the
