quarter electro i want to address the commissioner who said something about empty buildings being an owner and afraid of getting bad tenants that's a risk you take when you're a landlord you take the risk you might get somebody bad big deal our making money off of them once again we talk about bad apples theirs bad one side everywhere i ask you to support supervisor campos amendment or whatever it is and mainly because we need regulation we need to know who's doing airbnb we need to know how often they're doing and so they

can pay their fair share of taxes oh, there's too much this and that but the navigate they're trying to cheat somehow and i don't think it is right people they're going to be doing airbnb sharing our house is one thing having an entire empty building to do at&t park a wrong do we want people to live here or tourist to come hornl honesty to god it is simple decision. >> >> thank you. next speaker please. >> hello, i'm a 18 year san

franciscan resident 14 in the mission i'm a homeowner and small business owner and father of two and i've been an around host in the mission for the last 3 years the income that has jade from airbnb has loudly my family to cover the cost of health care because i'm a small business owner i pay for health care on my opinion my own it is not clean up any cap or restriction on hosting puts a real financial strain on me and my family the unit we have a tiny in-law unit that didn't have a kitchen is booked between 90 percent of year i need that to cover the health care costs my kids the positive side for them is that their world citizens they get to meet folks

from all over the world my guests are pumping real dollars into the mission and supporting small business i don't want to be a landlord or want a roommate as far as the registration san francisco is a green city i don't know the process requires you send physical copies instead of a digital copy we all are urging e billing doing this is beyond me although this issue is incredibly important but living in the mission and being imposed to gang and drug dealing and trash and other things in the mission is worse i respectfully ask sxoomz and other city officials to focus on those matters as well thank you. >> hi, good evening. i'm

barbara first of all thank you for the opportunity to speak a year and a half i lost my job and am in school and working and starting a business this income is critical i've deeply concerned about the proposed amendment to remove the against distinctions within a host and non-host i submitted an application on the existing law and spent over $400 i'm still waiting for my permit i feel the city is betrayed that undermines the spirit of law the path and non-hosted in my view can be under stress we're not giving the law a chance to work anyone that hosts more than one hundred and 20 is someone like might

have that needs the income i can't understand why the city imposed pain it is not - there's plenty the tax laws i can't understand why the city thinks to have a invasion of privacy and invite people to spy on each other my folks were in world war ii and they saw people pitted against each other in san francisco asked to report on families in their short-term rental is a violation of our rights please consider the situation as people like myself thank you

san francisco has been a place where opportunity has literally been in our backyard i've been active in business organization and proud to call this place my home home sharing people have discovered the opportunity that extra bedroom as the industry xroesz that is not hard to see what can be down to improve it to make sure we're doing 0 the right thing to do but between business and government leaders and because of way those amendments have come about you've seen input if our community that's wonderful about home sharing and airbnb that touches airbnb it gives my friends my neighbors the ability to be small business owners in ways they've not dreamed of and

participated in san francisco the hotel and tourism industry and allowed retina to stay in their homes and retire xhovnl and to reinvent themselves like hive not dreamed of that's a wonderful thing or less a friend of mine from 43 allergy he found a home sharing room yet near debois park a wonderful woman opened her home and served him chose and saudi 3 days more and he shopped and used our transportation and ate at our restaurants and spent his money in your economy imagine more people like him and visitors like him visit our wonderful neighbors and neighborhood and residents so i'd like to make sure that.

>> your time is up thank you very much. >> thank you. >> hi, i'm bryce bennett from glen park i own my home with my husband as consumers we've been told to shop and eat locally this encourages people to stay at our home we make our place forcible for people to visit we're legally refrmd we're none thirty the rental process is horrible it is way too difficult you guys need to correct that we rent out one spare bedroom in our home that norm would not be represented on the open market

not renting to a renter rather see it go empty we make it affordable for people to visit by those people visit we've actually asked a few of the people and normally not come to san francisco if forced to stay in a hotel it allows those people that stays at our place to shop locally and creating more jobs with that money we earn from the airbnb that affords us to 35i our mortuary and property tax and spend out more nights in the city that creates for jobs if you cap our days it stops the money flow keep jobs locally thank you. >> (calling names)

boy i'm getting tired (laughter). >> my name is listing my mom and you are co-owners it's a home i've raised my three children i support home sharing i'm a airbnb host for the loose 3 years and home sharing has allowed us to stay in the home and the cost of the about how far city and allows my college age children and elderly mom to come and go awhile providing us with the income and pay for

college expenses plus we love our guests i'm registered adding the number of cap the majority of our guests prefer home sharing and have a friendly traveling experience most won't take a trip airbnb are supporting local businesses and paying tax adding a cap from the primary residence is unnecessarily inpuffy won't rent to long term owners this is not southern california the housing crisis other solutions are needed i'm i've been in compliance with the new legislation that was passed by number 5 at best it was a little bit confusing i'm being

harassed by the tax collector and the sf official told me to ignore the notices from the tax collector i urge you to keep the fair legislation that was already approved and resolve issues with fascinating hosts registration with the planning department please support us we can easily survive thank you. >> good evening ever good afternoon. i'm a registered airbnb host living think potrero hill concerned about the changes their disappoint not 3 whole most not 90 days and many hosts are going through the somewhat multiple step process of getting registered might have we signed

up for this with the new perimeters in the legislation and the changes will fundamentally change that understanding and punish those of us who have stepped forward this represents the worse girlfriend bad faith and cruel switch tactic that harms residents and small business owners as a homeowner my biggest concern is changing the legislation by limiting the number of days one hundred 20 from the current 360 per year a 60 percent decrease many my ability to supplement my income this will place a strain upon me as well as another hosts as someone nearing retirement i'm

64 year-olds this is essential to make end meet would you appreciate having our benefits arley reduced i'm fairly sure the city won't replace my lost income if those amendments are adopted and encompassed on home sharing it is hard to comprehend how to be a short-term rental home will not change my home to a long-term rental unit thank you very much. >> hello i'm cindy i appreciate this opportunity to tell my story no support of home sharing hive been a homeowner for 28 years city property tax
