moratorium please hear the message roughly a quarter of those people live in the mission district and in case i've printed you a copy those people represent the people that cannot be here today working people families with children each of them has a story to tell and their voices matter as everyone in the room we can all agree we need to build more affordable housing but this moratorium goes about it wrong as a false promise stopping the production of housing for 45 days up to 2 years will tomato not stop the daytime or go to affordable housing and not hem the people that claim it will be helping it will make the entire city for expensive as a time of crisis and emergency we can't afford to
6:43 am

6:44 am
worse this is displacement and land crisis for affordable housing builders and housing crisis it is especially ironic there are policies that help housing affordability in the mission much more quickly and directly than a moratorium and 4 of those require the land for immunized housing and acquire the dent financing for the projects please sharper accelerate the pace of the entitlement process for the site we've already unified in the mission there are 4 we've sorry 2 leonardo da vinci and 50 permanently affordable housing units that will not cost of the taxpayers a nickel we voluntary at inclusionary ordinances those are market rate and why can't we partner the okay. is 20 percent
6:45 am
housing instead of telephone the restrictions no one choose those and an opportunity of proposition and moratorium really in a city that is growing by 10 thousand people per year it can only harm this is preventing displacement and get the land and prevent housing crisis from exploding thank you. >> (clapping). >> hi there i'm annie i'm a low income renter that is relatively new to san francisco and housing advocate we have many differences after talking with the mission resident trying to find a common ground we're similar and i want to more affordable housing before i'm priced out of the city because i can't afford an apartment out of
6:46 am
- i have a proposal this took me 20 minutes smart and hard work people have been working and pressured the mayor and supervisor campos to develop more numbers and the reports are 13 instead of an emergency moratorium why not make an emergency bmr two years however long it takes for the develops and incentivize those developers in the transbay terminal to race to do the hundred percent affordable housing on the mission property and developers will gobble up those are parcels immediately because their cheaper than the parcels you downtown i asked 3 developers this morning they confirmed it there's the funding to the
6:47 am
mission community in favor of the moratorium there's the hundred percent avenue and to the people on the fence there are more viable effective and examination national policies than a moratorium supervisors you don't need 45 days or two years act now fast forward skip the wake up call (clapping.) boo. >> i'm gus i was born and raised in the mission from grammar school to the high school we lived in a one-room area the four of us the reason why we would in f that situation there was a housing storage and time up to the present moment
6:48 am
all i can say we've had a how's crisis and there's never been a solution every time there was a serious solution we offer never cure the problem only the symptoms to - we know the problem is the lack of affordable housing you have to build and i think the moratorium is not the solution at all i think the way we enticed the tech companies to come into the city we need to entice the developers i'm against the moratorium thank you (clapping.) >> hi, i'm austin hunter when i moved to the city as a student i moved into a 23 bedroom apartment with 6 people i moved to san francisco because we have progressive policies in those
6:49 am
city that worked towards solution this moratorium doesn't protect the tenants or stop evictions or increase funding for affordable housing the only thing is x rates the problem the article - it puts it on the track to building more housing in a smart way the moratorium didn't provide a step along the road to softly the housing crisis people will continue to move to san francisco whether a 2 bedroom apartment or luxury condo downtown selma we need to increase our avenue, i ask the board to vote no on the moratorium and no an entry promise and towards a solution thank you (clapping.) >> hello i'm matthew i do policy analysis for medicaid i
6:50 am

one for me, i'm from portland please forgive me for grammar areas i come from communism i came here 27 years old with a thousand dollars me my pocket i want to school i speak english very well i'm proud of it i really resent the moratorium it is targeting people like me i came to the city because it was wonderful and i contribute a lot to the communities have wonderful neighbors and have told my neighbors that are elderly i speak spanish with them and i don't understand why people like me who came here and been here for 15 years i took two jobs to be able to live here i live in the mission in dlorp for 15 years my question to you
6:52 am
david why do i say in the perfect time to freeze san francisco right now and build no more i this city was built 50 years old if they had this attitude in san francisco you have to acknowledge that city's e cities change this is so misguided and the worse you're hurting people that are really people that need people are income to pay for their housing i went to school for ordered i'm a full-time participant and artists need to be subsidized and their studios subsidized by the city i don't have the moral ground why are we arts better the ford this is -
6:53 am
>> thank you. next speaker, please. >> (clapping.) >> so the main issue i take with the moratorium it is built on the idea that the private market can't be a solution because the venerable land is to limited los angeles police department it limit but space didn't have to be we can build higher building and up joend the buildings to 16 steroids and require affordable having you'll have 3 thesis for affordable unit and assuming each floor has liveable space this has vandals it get hundred and 50 important affordable housing and no need to search for finance we've get the developers to give us money and also the market rate unit they'll be built under the
6:54 am
moratorium the moratorium will have store and the downward pressure to lessen the under controlled unit and last but not least this sets a precedent of up zone other neighborhood and allowing mixed income housing i believe that fixing this housing crisis a regional effort in other wealthy areas have not done their share to help the problem that is like pacific heats this is seem like it benefits everyone if san francisco is serious we need to build types of housing thank you (clapping.) thank you. next speaker. >> good evening supervisors rob pool with the san francisco

6:56 am
we build a house we've got to be responsible to plan we need more funding for affordable housing and we need to make it easier to audio hours at all levels of affordability and be creative there are solution that we should be focusing on unfortunately t this moratorium is distracting we should pass the housing bond in november we should be supporting david chiu and not make it easier for the vendors to work together and make sighted permanently affordable those will make so for more affordable and moratorium wants to put a pause but when the moratorium is over san francisco will still be expenditure and no more affordable housing and no money for the
6:57 am
