start of rent control is that the reading landlord have become greed i didn't i am totally appalled at the fact of thinking of my parents who were small property owners and simply trying to rent out one of their units as being how would i say unfair and ununusually financially eco that is not the case of small property owners you need to look at the overall attempts you're trying to get at in trying to create legislation like this that undermines small property owners thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> my angle to bring the

area my personalities are working hard and kind they help but outs with the babysitting, however, my parents prefer not to represent out the unit they want more freedom and peace of mind instead of tenants jammed in a small place q and a infrastructure cars occupying the garage is this the tenants fault to violate the code as good citizens and landlords my parents provided place for the emigrates so we never create the housing crisis please don't punish us as you're political scapegoats such a tenants legislation that will provide vacancy and make it more 86.

>> thank you mu, ms. chu. >> i'm a tenant i live others van ness avenue which is slated for destruction we're to be replacing 27 units with the building next door we found out about this not through the new owners of the building but find out by this in the newspaper and nevertheless, we were shocked to find out we were going to lose our homes in the communities i really support this legislation it out arraign that people are being petty we're going to be renting if we have to conform to our laws if you're a slumlord you one-story but if a good landlord those laws shouldn't effect you in in

any way, shape or form and one thing i want to pout as a long term residents of san francisco somebody whose who's been here since 1956 it is disturbing the black people and latino people are being pushed out this is a racial issue to say it is not this is george the elephant in the room not one black homeowner up here not one not one latino homeowner this is disturbing and us being removed maybe i am a white woman but i have a black family i really support our legislation and work with you to save my home. >> at this time i'm going to call the next speaker cards

(calling names) and i have a group card jessica and others. >> okay my name is a rocking ann supervisors you own property why is our property our bank account and checking account sacred why no supervisor on the stabilization and a law limit our ability if you've been defrauded we know the reason why you understand the necessity of safe guarding with your wealthy why not protect those people trying to director lee fraud us or prevent the recovery in sooerns sooerns essence why the

appropriation your legislation makes it impossible to recovery the are reversal property if i can't evict a tenants due to breach and i'm an indentured servant to san francisco you control how much rent i receive and now how much for decade if a tenant didn't move for decades and supervisor wiener legislation it is in period of time up to the time i organizes do you limit my wealth to benefit the attendants if you're concerned with the tenants support them with your wealth you have no right to take mine you see the viewers you'd not dream have to tell someone what to think those mub controlled that is a contradiction the right to own property is a right i have a right to live sell any

property and be reck penalty i have the right to go out of business just because the tenants has the rights regarding he or she property. >> thank you. next speaker, please >> next speaker. >> are you asking if i called our name. >> i don't know whether you have called. >> not. >> no. >> no sorry. >> we have over a hundred and 20 speaker cards and i'm not aware i've only made that halfway through. >> good afternoon, members of the board thank you for your patience steve with the

tenderloin housing clinic i want to thank you supervisor jane kim for drafting the legislation wanted to let you know we support the nuance amendment language that we discussed with supervisor wiener that he's introduced today, we also support the illegal use amendment or language that was addressed by scomploenz office thank you for that i do want to speak out against the amendment to the subletting provision promoted by supervisor wiener state law provides someone the right to have a caregiver under the housing act and under federal law as a reasonable accumulations so it is provided the mechanisms for getting that are already pretty much on for the landlords it didn't give us very much we really need people

that don't need carves to afford to live in their unit and not evicted like supervisor wiener said a got you for evicts because people are lived there for many months and not on a lease. >> uses that as a basis for evicts i don't think that that two persons per bedroom is too many landlords under this legislation would be a allowed to reject a roommate this is xhoul for years and not an original occupant so it becomes rent-controlled and any increased cost bike or like waters uncle can be passed on to the tenants i think that is a reasonable provision and shouldn't be amended. >> thank you, mr. collier and

commissioner lee times to make a comment. >> mr. collier thanks for working with us on the nuance language and glad to have unity you understand that you want to keep the full sub leasing language f but if this i have no idea would you prefer the caregiver language go in or stay out what i don't want to interfere with people's rights under the state law but this addresses a basis for anyone to bring in a caribou you're familiar with the state law. >> i don't think that is necessary the danger of putting it in those one the relevant this can't be part of it so we

have that problem but assuming all the language that we have in there i don't think so it amending that with the caregiver language. >> right the caregiver language language i proposed on the summaries the other language can go out but sounds like you're saying if that the language ends up going out i don't know if it w will you'll not have the caregiver language come in. >> it didn't help and basically and think that, of course, would say that while they all the time the law and allow the carves to come in. >> i appreciate that. >> thanks. >> thank you, mr. collier. >> hi good afternoon i'm sorry christine representing the law caucus thank you for your

proficiency or patience there are a lot of speakers without further ado, i want to share a story i've been working with many, many families naming attendance this family is a family of 3 live in a two bedrooms and have guilt parents from china to the u.s. in 3 months from the starts of they're takency when he when they saw the unit they did ask the landlord is it possible for them to move in their parents with who will be golden state warriors to the u.s. the landlords adding and tell them they need to sign a lease with us and that will be fine your parents can live with you so, of course, the tenants moved in and 3 months later their parents emigrated to the u.s.

and was able to move in six months later the landlords told they can't stay because the parents are not on the lease and unauthorized tenants and knowing that the parents doesn't have anything else only the children and being in the chinese culture we have to take care of our parents without allowing the parents to stay the tenants will have to leave and find another place this story tells us with this legislation being passed from the tenants are are will have the opportunity and time to formally request the landlords to allow their parents to stay and be authorized tenants without being the legislation - >> thank you, ms.

stayed the unit was legal for separate use, in fact, the first time they learned the unit was not legal when her landlords served her with a 3 day notice to leave this legislation 6 that is included that is proposed about not bar landlord from position of a unit as many people have i think correctly testified it will on require the landlords serve the no fault eviction that provide relocation payment this is not only common sense but it is the originalal incident i ask you to pass this so tenants are not urban fairly forced out of their homes.

land use commission you know we been listening to and an unending flood of appeals for sympathy by small landlords someone that may have difficult tenants to make us forgot the other things the lymph glands have ultimate power and certainly good landlords way too many have been using that power to cash in on the gentrification and the wave of speculation in this hot rental market the hottest in the country that is behind the 70 percent surge in evictions san francisco this and this is what needs to be addressed first and foremost if displacement is to be stopped in the african-american to be persevered and the hispanic and

the seniors and disabled protected from the hoepgsz the way to put an end to fraudulent evictions to reduce or eliminate the motivate more making misuse the owner move in and make sure that tenants are proper language none of those are unreasonable psa those evictions protects and without year limit on vacant control. >> thank you very much. next speaker. and hi, i'm christi here today to oppose the legislation i understand that some of you supported this proposition in trying to solve the problem if the bayview but the storage

shormg can't improve by conceiving rent control laws it will likely do the option with so many rent controls homeownership that don't rent their house will be doing so fearing once it is rented out they've not have the control of their own property again, i'm share my experience my in-law unit tenants i was stressfully we were trying to refinance the home but the in-law unit tenants were comes up with all kinds of skews that is not let us in the house so as a result we did schedule 3 providersers the

tenants were excusing to pay them $50,000 to let them in the house i don't understand why should the tenants be able to have to have control of our own property it is our personal property. >> last i'd like to make a one last point as a district supervisor supervisor kim you are you should represent the whole district not a small group of tenants please come up with some rent control with laws that protect everyone thank you. >> thank you. >> next speaker. no need to wait.

>> good afternoon. i'm sal young i'd like to say no to protection why the homeownership can't stop renting to the tenants who will have criminals in the homeowners let the people stay in their property it is to support the rate they do for they're living those tenants have the security of neighbors and communities why the homeless can't reviews to the 0 tenants are trouble makers it causes trouble to the homeownership e homeowner they sometimes lose money in order to deal with them the homeowners under the rent control in the san francisco for

example, from the tenants is not pay rents even for months they still have the right to stay or the homeowners have to pay them to send them out in reverse from the homeowners don't pay them for their prompt the family - i hope our city can remember before you indicator the new property for the benefit to the tenants and also to the homeowners please come up with a solution to beneficiary the tenants and the homeowner thank you for the chance to repeat our aspirations thank you. >> thank you. >> i'm back again, i'm scott weaver from the san francisco tenants union i want to talk

about the additional occupants and i think analysisly look at the balancing test balancing the detriment to the landlords requiring them to allowing them to increase the number of occupants against the public benefit of allowing more on into those units so let's look at what the provision does it allows occupy pans in establishing the local limit of occupancy in housing in san francisco there is thought what is a reasonable amount of occupancy for the units it allows the landlords to refuse additional occupants if they have a good reason they don't

have to accept the occupant the landlords cannot unreasonable refuse it but if they have a good reason they can it is the way it is written you have to have a good reason so what's the detriment if there are increased costs involved there's a provision 37.43 that allows payment of additional rents no laws are violated the benefits are more and more affordable housing and it is, of course, freedom of association a basic right to privacy that is has been firmed by the courts people should be able to live together people who they choose to live with without fear of evictions as long as there is good reason

for that. >> thank you, mr. weaver. >> good afternoon, everyone i worked and attend the south of market district as a organizer in selma i met some folks evicted eastbound evicted because of additional family members or changed the roommate i am here to demands to stop revocations and in this city with the most rents tenants this be given reasonable opportunity to add or change a roommate this is tenant should not be revoked for legally the families or apartments the landlords are applying changes that make - an example are seniors or persons with skablts being denied to share their apartment with tare caregivers the 2.0 expands the

protects to have the owners request romance and give the tenants 10 days notice that is not if not received the lord's permits i urge this protection measure be passed. >> thank you. >> hello supervisors my name is a teresa i'm a residence of selma and an member of soma supervisors we have a big problem this city has created a big divide thousands of evictions they're being fueled by development and there are over a hundred and thirty new developments all over the city and many are in selma and landlords looking being so cashing in and abusing the system in turn effect the

a pension when he dbes old is a risk he saved his for a investment property he had to pinch money to survive for the down payment and never took a vacation nevertheless, he took pride in a fixer upper in the working class of excelsior i loved it in a good side of town it doesn't matter if it as working class of many demographic transient folks he loves his neighborhood he rented outs his house to his family and when keeping you informed we reached his elderly in the 80s 3 years ago he realized he needs to rent for some income he did he was elated when a family of 3 adults and children want to rent slowly over the years the

attendance started to lease the old man talked about their 0 vision the tenants verbally agreed not to do that a year ago a teenager can move in from another country and replied an adult they rewrote a new contract and didn't raise a cents because those are working folks like himself 6 months later the tenants in the building noticed this elderly man she's seen many faces returning around the house and can i see clivenlg climbing the fence. >> making a lot of noise. >> 30 seconds ma'am, try to resolve this issue those attendance agreed verbally they'll look for a place to live
