7 hundred in you're getting one million dollars in tax each host is making over $18,000 take everything airbnb says - >> thank you. >> is there another speaker that wants to comment on that andrew is that you, please come on up. >> i work with the san francisco tenants union born and raised in san francisco it is indeed ironic as supervisor campos said as supervisor wiener and supervisor farrell championed a rhetoric of push back of the providing that data that makes this legislation enforceable and this concern about data privacy a reaction to

text messages between agencies whether should i i didn't or racism i it cops it was dictated that got those bad overlooks if you have nothing to hide why are you worried about when a report to done to analyze the short-term rental responsibility e reports there's so many doubts of an objective analysis and perhaps that place a question on this might be advised to question with similar rigor their own idealogy it used this to suggest we need more housing apply for the basic facts as supervisor farrell supervisor farrell says of housing only when the data contradicts the how's ideal metrological you

can't have it both because with that said, i strongly supported supervisor campos legislation we need to regulate those short-term rentals. >> thank you alex are you here you already spoke. >> okay chuck. >> welcome. >> thank you for trying to pronounce my last name i'm charles a long time resident of san francisco a recent retire indicator educator i pay 8 thousand there's a year to san francisco in property tax it is i think bunt to take care of my dabbled daughter my wife and i are spending several thousand dollars to model model our unit we're licensed as everyone else

is spoken but actuality that the kind of regulation that is proposed the thirty or 60 over and over 90 or hundred and 20 days any kind of days doesn't admit my swugs with all due respect it didn't work for me we're not taking a unit off the market that was no unit on the mark overwhelmingly that unit is true of my people in the room i don't have time to explain supervisors why i'm not going to be able to rented it for hundred 20 dies or 60 days didn't work what i know that be true, sir and ma'am my story is no more than valid whether they agree but i believe in talking to the economic itself to limit the number of days is no way enough to solve a complex economic

problem there's a ocean of problem between someone i am reintroducing to maintain their home in san francisco and perhaps in our district go who cleans out a building and evicts a bad tenants we need to know the difference tven the two one-size-fits-all limiting the number of days didn't limit this it is a bad what are you to remove a bad law. >> thank you oh, cecelia garcia (laughter) just kidding dennis. >> i like fruits too then take it away. >> i'm dennis a city planning commissioner i'm here as a private citizen one of the things i don't want to take away all the good work by supervisor

chiu i've sat here painful listening to the data, etc. we don't is reliable data that's the issue important one area we need to focus on the bad actors how do euphoric on the bad actors you have to get reliable data the planning recommendation for hosting platforms lies the valid register number is the lynch pin the protective analyze report you'll hosting platforms need to have a valid register before lisa house i think there are different listing models i get that from hosting platforms so have it this will level the playing field for all hosting platforms is drives good and

efficient enforcement and good plo seattle and seal beach is trying to do this we need to do it for the actresses that don't want to cooperate let's the city attorney shut them down we can prepare the city and the platforms and the hosts and outline compliance and everyone get time to adapt this is moving forward with that new type of arrangement i want to say complaint based systems terrible idea usual pushing your enforcement into me that's a bad idea and has got to go the city's job to enforce that with good data. >> next speaker. >> (calling names). >> hi, i'm a 31 year-old adult that grew up in benchmarking i

moved to san francisco in 09 and this kind of sales contrary job you have a better roll call moved in with my cousins any cousins had issues moved out got someone on craigslist i was afraid of making rent i'm a pro tenants right. i shared the tenant rights to him like if i was a landlord charging exactly half the rents about 6 months in he lost his job it happened 3 more times and the next roommate had trouble making rents i couldn't make the rodent on my own i was a fan of new people and experiences and that is something that airbnb offers me it is an incredible service i

decide how much of my space i went to an after party yesterday and walk in closest was the size of my entire closet i said i'm a host and average i understand if you want to rent out half ever that is a good way to get a roommate especially one you're not going to be getting an i think sight airbnb offers a one-million dollar insurance policy is helps the customer and host i'm a customer of airbnb if i come to san francisco i can assure you i'll not been able to pay $550 a night i charge 80 donors dollars a night and they find it nice and fair and guest

rooms. >> thank you, mary listen are you here edwardo and others we're moving on to the next set of tone people (calling names) sir did i call your name? please come to the podium >> i'm david thompson i have a tenant that takes in guests 2

hundred and 40 days of the year it is the only woo to pay the rent there are many people like him struggling to get by to them unlimited short-term rentals are a god sent i urge you to keep the distinction between hosted and non-hosted rental spelled out in the law hosting when your there and restricted on the latter at times you're not there i realize there are abuses in the system and need better enforcement let's clamp down on the profiteders i stand with supervisor farrell on the idea of a establishing a short-term rental administration to deal

with that problem. >> i'm afraid the planning department might not be up to the task which brings me to the new report from the budget and analyst office reporting to show how airbnb rentals have a negative impact anyone that is read the report knows how flawed it is just ask supervisor farrell i'll close by saying give a fair chance to the law that took effect february 1st, let's help my tenants to stay in san francisco think of this as an affordable unit measure use short term to live here long term thank you very much. >> thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> jennifer. >> hi jennifer coalition open homelessness.

you know when airbnb when i first heard about it the quasi it was described it was kind of like a low income way to travel a hippie thing you sleep on people's couches and through a cat's on the floor clearly at that power point it is totally different 2 thousand units that are taken off the market in san francisco we have a serious problem a situation in san francisco as everyone is pooifl away of a huge housing crisis when it comes to people come out housing they have the most negative impacts of that housing impacts on them they expect their life expectancy to be short and large amount of families homeless and children are experiencing homeless and

thousands and thousands of people that disabilities and a huge problem when folks make massive profit by rent out like hotels it is time to halt that practice enacts are devastating for the coalition at homelessness we see everyday what the impacts and what was drying up used to be casual living arrangements people could share a flat their drying up with the short-term rentals folks could get together and families take in other families those are drying up for communities as a matter of law people are living in horrendous conditions i'll ask the board to step in and pass the legislation to limit airbnb and the rest of

the short-term rental companies >> okay keith is there a gentleman named keith tracey and jeff come on up tracey and others (calling names) i don't know what that go says it could be evans. >> tracey i'm a single-family home owner we purchased a home in bruno heights it is a small 3 bedroom home we've raised 3 kids

to call home they can't afford a hotel because any business fluctuates airbnb is my primary source every income to make ends meet i support the need for taxes and make sure that people are not effecting the taxes but help us actually not limit the number of nights i can host in my home thank you. >> thank you for your testimony jeff lisa and others. >> i'm micki live in the castro with my wildfire her folks had that home since the 1940s it is a victorian over hundred yrlgz

years older we were encouraged by the legalization of short-term rental we registered with the platform they collect the tax from the folks and the city accepts the payments yet the treasurer is send us harassing letters they need to double pay the tax and it is being paid by our guests the city is getting the money the treasurer sends harassing letters threatening us we need to focus the city should focus on getting those people focused them registered on board to follow what was going on and play by the rules and get rid of the bad actors if they don't do this you're trying to get us pay a double tax you'll put us in the shadows and bad news for the

city i think the legislation that passed last october let the home sharers registration and further complicating the expensive city the treasurer harassment keeps people in the shadows and bad actors in the light. >> thank you. next speaker, please and i have to applaud our stamina i cannot building you do this today in and out thank you for the opportunity i'm a homeowner and have been sharing legally and registered as nuke 536 and i say income is absolutely critical for us me to be a say at home mom i have a 2-year-old with one on the way with the rising costs in

the city it is an important cost in our city we have a room with a bathroom on this the ground floor of the house primarily used for my family when they come to help with the children but during the rest of the year goes to airbnb noted a space on the math otherwise we're a good example of type of hosts that electricities to our community both the residential community by allowing residents within the neighborhood so have their friends and family stay in the neighborhood we don't have hotels and parks also the business community that has been spoken about i surely building that short-term rentals needs to be regulated in a reasonable manner and hosts such as myself not be shut out in the colds as

the bad actors thank you very much i hope to see a reasonable legislation on this issue. >> okay folks only 88 more cards hang in there with me. >> emily are you there others

wonderful public school my duty attends at the heart of this proposed regulation is the price of long term rental property the airbnb hosts i've spoken will will not convert to longer than republicans therefore the regulation will not increase the long-term intensity and not effect rental prices instead of is it human rights homeowner occupants restrict our free speech and jeopardizes our ability to support our community and schools then of us can say when life will throw us a curve i call on all to encourage you to keep the current lay and enable us to comply with it thank you. >> thank you susan
