from home and small business owner i understand what it takes to succeed in the city living on coastal i frequent any you m many small businesses my girlfriend eye moved here from 30r8d and instead of understanding a place to live we were looking for a community to call home we found home sharing for the us that opportunity within 6 months we sorry 10 weeks we lived in 10 neighborhood and walked the city this what we found were amazing hosts from all walks of life and recommending local places to eat this was acquit an adventure and the personal nature of home

sharing a rewarding experience this inspired us this makes an opportunity for tourist we have a big map on our wall with pins to the local businesses the money goes dribble to the businesses i urge everyone to understand the positive impact that home sharing has not only for hosts and the travelers but a community and small businesses as well those work together and build a local culture making registration only takes away from the businesses i ask we allow the current allows to be fully into effect before imposing additional changes.

>> thank you. next speaker. >> hello as a child lived all over the world i was in the military i choose to move to san francisco i lived bruno no heats i rent two bedrooms and another bedroom not able to rent underwent i have my own business i'm a massage therapist and i wouldn't be able to live in the city were it not for hearsay i want you to consider the legislation that has passed i'm working on getting registered it

takes time and this is the right way to go thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you. i'm john i'm a small business owner and support of home sharing i own my own home and host my own unit for 6 years i own and operate a food truck without the possibly of home sharing i couldn't have started my business not only the capital businesses was straggling it took a while to get it done with a larger entrepreneurs endeavor and holding down a full time job would have been a impossibility my truck i've had it for four years thus improving it takes 3

years to make a business professionalable without home sharing i might have started the business but not waited out the 3 years to establishment now hundreds of fans and followers step into my san francisco and indirectly support home sharing it enabled memo to feeds them perhaps finally to think about the potential small businesses out there that may never had a chance to establish themselves without home sharing i live in coastal and there's no home sharing 3 miles and extend my business to local businesses

also. >> thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good evening my name is cat thank you so much for hanging out here and hungry i want to talk about my experience i've lived here inform many years and i couldn't live here what did you do airbnb many in my home i'm a homeowner that rent out a house in glp i would never had given the chance never consider renting on airbnb it is not right it is not the spirit of what the home sharing is about my experience with trying to register has been i went in and

applied for my license and told i couldn't put my partner on unless i was murder i thought about that and thought i'm not on the water or electric bill i don't have a car i'm not on the insurance those are the things that would be accepted as being a homeowner and occupant it is stymie i will a be a honest woman i want to participate and short-term rentals and shows pretty cool have a good night thank you very much thank you for your time. >> good evening. i'm michelle and i am very long time resident

of san francisco and longtime homeowner i've been renting out a room for a little bit of last year and plan to continue this year is a glimmer of hope to remain in the city as i get older my friends retiring are leaving one here and there it is stressing i don't want to have to leave also i'm finding it really a ray of hope i feel like it benefits everyone that we're doing this home sharing it benefits the neighborhoods as everyone said and the city i know that register housing in the city is complex and complicated needs a lot of serious diagonal and creativity we need to work on that maybe we

need to extend rent control to new buildings as well as the old i don't know the answers but it is not changing airbnb to one hundred and 20 days not going to make any difference so i think that is sort of being used as a scapegoat and sort of inappropriate and that people should be able to share their homes for as often as they wish thank you. >> thank you. >> good evening, commissioners i have a cold i'm a relating new hosts my daughter left for college i am recently divorced but i'm fwoosz a empty nest and

considerable higher mortuary airbnb helps older folks stay in the city as you've heard but the limited number of days does not protect affordable housing instead it is 20 days lost hotel revenue for my place alone the proponent of the amendment say the short-term rentals effect the character my guest are here to attend wednesday morning and furnld and contribute spending $200 in caregivers and store these are travelers that wouldn't sigh overnight in a high-priced hotel room what is changing the incredible money thanks to tax breaks and monster

homes and tearing down homes to build skyscrapers if the law is amended now i too like someone else mentioned that is an incredible bait-and-switch i request you exempt if this happens you exempt from limits those who comply with the laws use some of the 14 percent to keep the thousands of guests and us doing what we go in san francisco thank you. >> hi, i'm john, i lived in the mission for 31 years i'm sure i put many a blue card i support of supervisor campos legislation businesses should be the businesses should be regulated and they're currently not in the case of airbnb a

couple of things i had my head skraich with had some of the initial statements from supervisor farrell saying there's too many housing platforms dbe yet planning is going to set up an office ever overseeing these things maybe that's a waste of money that's a contradiction another thing that is a head screecher the reporter for the i think that was you said he said he stressed my report here on the rentals is not scientific and complete yet the head of planning department said we have the facts to determine those are go laws i'm not sure what the agenda to me that is acquit simple you want

to have a business licenses to know what is going on in your city not having licenses for liquor stores and food establishment or save ways so you can make so how society works and licenses so you can collects on a regular basis thank you. >> good evening i guess i'm the last one my name is is emily kelly need to stay in the city because the victorian in san francisco it is role expenditure and quite a challenge i panicked to make sure we had the mortuary last

year, we had to rerevolver we had to replace the sewer lines from the hill to the street and had a lot of dry rot dangle i provide shrz i have a tenant upstairs i subsidies here i provide co-chair for my daughter if not for short-term rentals for hosting we would losses but how is it is such a challenge and been a god sent and for those who follow the law comply the register who basically do we we're asked to do please don't take that away from use it will effect memo and my family and

community i want to mention airbnb provides the accounting the taxes the insurance makes is so much easier for us and the accountability is there so i'm grateful for the opportunity to be in the city and i hope you'll consider you'll this as you make our decision please don't change the law so seen soon and allow us to comply and go forward in this city. >> thank you is there any additional public comment going once, twice, 3 times public comment is closed. and we'll open up to commissioners for deliberation. >> commissioner president fong and i discussed a strategy to approach the various piece of

legislation before you i believe if you choose to i think the easiest way to take each recommendation individually and separate them and have a consensus vote, vote on each other then or mark which ones have consensus and create a motion with certainty recommendation other than any remedies that are amended or misdemeanor through our discussion process as one option you can use or take to tackle this complicated proposal in front of you. >> thank you commissioner wu. >> thank you so i think this is helpful voices i want to be clear there are poise that have been discussed not in the recommendations

commissioners i have another recommendation or hostile the topics about which they would liquor to move on. >> indeed. >> if you can help us control that so each the items would be great. >> i'd like to make a general public comment sorry to interrupt and go into. >> show we allow commissioners to make general comments and tackle them. >> very good very good. >> commissioner richards wow. not as much but still enough i sat through the hearing on august i was on the other side of the rally i was a nominee confirmed the board of supervisors voted on the current piece of legislation i called supervisor wiener and said supervisor wiener the proposal is not enforceable it will fail
