the role [inaudible] in his time and that reflects heavily on what i see today. many talk about housing and many issues which you lack understanding about. eeben one person saying they didn't 7 percent [inaudible] you have secretarys and assistance to help you get the numbers, but you should understand the information. most of the stuff you talk about and had the arguments about you sound like children talking about [inaudible] you don't have detail on. you are not philosophers [inaudible] none of you know what you dwoog from the sound of it. before you spew rhetoric please understand your role and the greater [inaudible] please understand your role in creating the 73 percent of houses built in the mission that are luxury and are affordable. while you lack the understanding of the 7 percent i bet you know the 9thry is
5:57 pm
there and benefit from the 93 being there >> thank you very much. next speaker, please >> good afternoon everyone. my name is brent. i'm a san francisco native born and raised here. i say that to say this, being my time is limited i'll be as concise as i can be. the only way that folks can get you all attention is if they bring legal action against you. as you all know those of you that understand law, before one can bring legal action against a government entity got to file a tort claim. i have proof that the city and county of san francisco is breaking the law on the level of
5:58 pm
potentially accusing or potentially having violated the reekal act. i'm a disabled person according to social security administration. i'm part of a protected class under the ada and have proof that the human suvss aensh has vimeted the ada, the reeko act, the unrule act, the rehabilitation act of 1973 scr other applicable law. number 2, my comment to 2 fold and based on time i'm limited to the things that i can say. in regard to the sfmta, i'm going to read to you exerts from a hearing, 2 hearings. first hearing, 469950. let me read the last part of this hearing. it says here as far as the decision is concerned, it says here a
5:59 pm
muney, a violation of muney rules is filed. that is just one hearing that i had. the second hearing states there was a violation of rule 4 aut.1 five and 4.17. this is in regards to muney buses >> sur, thank you. thank you very much. next speaker, please >> hi, my name is john [inaudible] and resident of central market. i would like taactually mention the 7 percent affordable housing thing that people have talked about here today including the supervisor squz audience if they don't mind [inaudible] i guess they don't want to know. there is a [inaudible] 1979 mission that will build a total of 3079 units if you include the off site they are funding. my understanding is that is
6:00 pm
including 90 units that are affordable. that would improve that 7 percent, but some people on the board of supervisors and in the public and the non profit sector have advocateed gaens that building. to hear they are complaining about 7 percent being built but they are against a buildsing that will bring about 27 percent affordable, it is strange. i would also like to say that i support supervisor wieners in law legislation expense and hope fen many of you in the historic neighborhoods who represent the historic neighbors where big build outs are not always possible will also dotioning like that in your areas >> thank you. any toret member thofz public that would like to provide public comment at this time? seeing none public comment is closed. madam
