3:32 pm
business started 21 jars a later we're still there in sorry 19 years not in the same location but 21 years overall the story is situated around the chiropractor this is my community i dedicated the last 21 years of my life to this community and it hurts to see that torn apart so rapidly and so quickly by the gentrification that is happening within the neighborhood you know, i had lots of colorful things to say we are in absolute risk of displacement our landlord not wants to raise the rent the only lease is raising our rent more than 3 times what
3:33 pm
it is we currently by a below-market rate because we have significantly old lease our lease was $2,500 a month i know everyone is shocked but they want to raise our rent to over $9,000 a month you can see why it is important to us we sort of that we get your support and recommendation as a legacy so when we move forward we can seek funding and we can reach out to the community knowing we have the support of the you know the historic preservation commission behind us thank you for considering us i hope you approve us thank you. >> is there any public comment on item seeing and hearing none bring it back to the commission. >> commission comments and questions. >> can designate they have
3:34 pm
number one legacy business but 100 percent. >> from 1849 it is unbelievable and i'm sorry i didn't catch your name. yes steve i think that is one of the challenges of where we are in history and that is pretty shocking that rent is up 4 times if we can find a way to do this through the program that is really the purpose why we're here i'll very much support all the nominations >> thank you commissioner johnck. >> i have similar thing thank you for your pointed and fantastic statement i think i'll support it as well notwithstanding it was great you know we have heard over the last
3:35 pm
several months from many, many businesses that we have approved but we don't often hear about the hardship i think that is important to keep track the hardship. >> commissioner matsuda. >> thank you thank you all for coming out and sharing your stories and sharing the importance of having you here in the community i am clearly in support of four applications before us as usual i want to talk about uniform it or some way to create a system where we can further appreciate or better appreciate the applications that come before us and i'll be quick so i think that is important for
3:36 pm
us as commissioners to gain a better appreciation for the applications and all the effort it going into those putting those applications together and for the applicant i think the applicant has guidance to help them to figure out what we think is important it will save them time and money and save them stress you don't want to put a bunch of stuff together and we not find it relevant that is will be beneficial to a both of us as i was reading through the application whasz the commonality between the community-based nonprofit and one and 68 old bakery in a unique 0 clothing store uniqueness is the commonality we can maybe see that would help us further appreciate that to have things put in a beginning and middle and current day i mean
3:37 pm
kind of dividing them up it would have been really cool and there are a lot of visuals that were included but cool to see one or two articles i marked the arts will the nonprofits about the issues of today because those issues radio still issues today i think that is important and to see the visible and what the first a lot of bread for those i think are definitely sitting on the commission those viciously would be important i say that for future generations can appreciate you know all the hardship to put the businesses alive and forwarded the information to the library archives is that right? that will be great to get that information i'm talking like a
3:38 pm
broken record to make sure but we hauniform it and the accompanying things to support that that would be enough. >> thank you commissioner johnck. >> well, i had two points to make one of them is made for eloquently more than i was prepared to make it and the second one i wanted to move that these businesses be designated. >> second. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further, there is a motion that has been seconded to adopt a recommendation for approval for all the legacy business applications on that motion commissioner hasz commissioner johnck commissioner johns commissioner matsuda commissioner pearlman commissioner vice-president \hyland and commissioner

3:43 pm
with the supervisors come up with creative ideas i'm sorry 6 thousand did i say - 6 thousand units i'm getting excited when we are initiative at the same time our residents say we have to be practical whether we work together both can be accomplished with quality housing that all of our units represent and our nonprofits help to manage and the you city we are refugesized your public housing portfolio not see combe e delipidated housing you'll see housing that mixed use and the residents are the same people but with a lot more restrictive hope excited about working with the board let's get more housing for everyone let's have a great

3:46 pm
unfortunately in the city we've gone to the extreme and becoming a city of the/88 we have to make drastic steps in the housing policy the only way to house people to make a bold step so we're here to say that is time to step forward for working people and step up for working families and need to begin to make them a priority in my district prior to the great recession you could find an affordable housing but now homes are north of one million dollars in the sunset homes well noting of one million dollars in the bloifts approaching one million dollars not for working-class and the market took care of of itself but our chances and
3:47 pm
opportunity to make a bold move and steps towards working families over the decades produced 23 thousands of low income housing when a redevelopment agency we produced housing for working-class but no consistent funding stream for working families i'll repeat no consistent funding stream for working families so if you're a janitors if you're a laborer if you're a pledgeer or carpenter and a hotel working or noose no housing designed for you, we don't have the funding we need to make bold steps in the coming weeks we'll talk about inclusionary but i stand here today in full support of everyone that supervisor katie
3:48 pm
tang we need to step up for working class families. >> (clapping.) >> when the teachers are trying to get housing and have the lands for free they've come across the reality money streams there is funding for the paraprofessionals but not funding streams for teachers when we can't fill the positions we're in a entries around housing for working people an important aspect of what makes our city strong the next person i want to bring up local local 261 speak from their appreciative mr. josh. >> (clapping.) >> thank you supervisor safai and thank you, of course, to supervisor tang for bringing in forward and to the mayor and all of us we at local 261 join the others members of the building and construction trade to do
3:49 pm
something special over the past several years that's the most successful hiring program in the country. >> (clapping.) >> a wouldn't have been possible without the leaders from government and lavish and housing advocates but that breaks down it all breaks down having a chance for local resident to get a job working with the trades from the community and breaks down when they seek to support their families and started a family and be a local hire in san francisco it breaks down when you don't have housing so this is a follow proposal here to talk about working families and middle-income housing generated and building trades everybody coming together like i said local hiring works when we have what? >> housing what do we forbode to build. >> housing human resources all
3:50 pm
