coating this. hundreds of those needed. here in the united stwhen people go into supportive housing in new zealand or united states. the state and the department of justice, i have not named anyone on this board or the director as a suspect? this all happens in 1978 in san francisco. the sim thing right after vietnam and right after

afghanistan, lsd was the rave, they were doing illegal experiments. and today, and in the is an article about mushrooms and experiments, same g, repeating itself. i'm asking this board to make and bring our community together bring peace and unit priority. again, one system is not the problem when people do drugs hsh places people on to overtake one system surveillance and they reverse to put it thank you. >> speaker: at 2 and a half percent means that we will still face attrition and

outcome of our system. i also wanted flag that in fy23, 1220 famili coordinated entry and as of that close of 2024 that was 1800.looking at about 50 percent crease of people seeking help from this city.l to stand up 130 hotel vouchers in fall we're concerned about the outflow of families will go. we're still waiting for guidance from our program manager to contend to residency. sorry. i don't have great finally related to shelter, we are wondering if there is line available related to additional guidance the family shelter system. the pin !ñpoint was incredible and just wondering when we would know more information and in closing, would love to

have the count, heard it was going to come out today. any on that, we would appreciate it. >> thank you. next please. >> speaker: good evening, i'm elian behinder i'm oothe policy maker for glide and social justice. we came here before about the families and households and rvs on winston and buck ham and today is the day of enforcement. and as director mentioned most of the households moved over to skyline and that area by the zoo. so really what we're asking for is ackwas a preempted displacement for the households that they chose totect themselves which is their right. but we're hoping for resources to moving safely for a safe parking site and connect people to housing. we know that there a limited

supply and all of these things that the families need. but still conditioning to support them because, they have shown with this move that they care about staying together as a commity which they already did. and we want to support them in being able to do that, not being further dis stablized if they're scattered from where they are now. so providing a site there are sites over that could be used and moving without contracting would be really amazing because there is an opportunity now to move quickly to support them where they are now. and make sure that they don't have further destabilization from this crackdown, not only on winston and buckingham there is also on la merced suppose to be protected.it seems that mta is enforcing where there are a rvs and enforcement on the doll over there.

and more obviously seeing city wide sweeps related to the past position. so we're kind of seeing this city wide issue and crackdown. and obviously we're concerned abouñtt all of these things examine supporting all of those people. for this rv community because they are community degree of stability, we're hoping to continue to support and any efforts that they 1@can do so they can continue to hold on to some stability bsome of the stability that they have that they're automobile to access. especially given that they have peakers. >> thank you. >> speaker: good morning, i'm alicia and i'm the at campus services. we would like to thank you for

finding solution for families living in rvs as well as the those commissions for efforts. i strongly urge hsh tofamilies by opening a safe parking site and providing households on options that they find appropriate. we're seeing firsthand that the family system is still overwhelmed as i shared this past year where there were 469 families in the shelter wait list as these families have been displaced and joining and over saturated system. this displacement will be especially traumatic for the children. with the new school year starting in just a couple of weeks, these children at-risk of being unable to stay in the same scor maintain assistance. this instability children will fall behind in their education which will contribute to a cycle of homelessness. please do not overlook these

families providing support like ite. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> speaker: good morning, i'm flow kelly and i volunteer on the coalition of homelessness. i want to point out that the director's office, it's over there on the table for us to be able to see, it only has page numbers that are odd numbers, there is no even numbers. so it's not complete. so not providing a safe parking space means that people who are by the way, the shelter that the city does not have to pay for. they own their shelter and they may lose their rv through ticketing and towing. considering our mayor's order

roundup every one who has the audacity to live in the sidewalk, just put them in ja on tuesday, i witnessed a sweep and i saw hese citations that are going to add up, my god. does hsh want to contribute to the numbereople living in the sidewalk. people who live in their rvs lfgl today, we're on winston and they functioned as a community and "áthey still do and they do to tell them what to do in the safe parking lot with les to come together, i mean, if somebody is deciding the rules, then they cannot decide themselves what the rules are. the people on winston can run themselves as they have been doing. they do not need rules of conduct, they already have that together. so i'm really works with the department

coming together and if they're now on zoo road, you know, please, please, put some pressure or work together zo the other departments and make sure that they don't get up on the sidewalk. they will. i've talked to lots of people who say see that used to be mine. >> thank you. >> speaker: good morning, commissioners and director, i'm zoo internal compass services. i want to echo the previous speaker said and exyou and hsh for committing to finding a home for these families living in rv. i ask for the commission and hsh to continue these and truly secure safe parking

site, a truly park ing site lies living in vehicles in turn housing to finding alternative to living in the streets. i'm of a major corridor which is being implemented without a sufficient plan mitigate displacement of families living there. preventative measures are not devastating to residents they also seem to for community providers like campus up here. it's worth celebrate thating some of the houses havbeen connected to appropriate resources. but st the process and others who have not qualified for problem so that meet their needs. the absence of a safe parking site for families on the west site likely danger the

valued members of our community. thank you. >> thank you. thank you. >> speaker: hello, they're talking about all of this stuff butdo we have any type of accountability? >> i'm listening. >> speaker: yeah i'm wondering when we have any kind of accountability for these providers. it seems they do what they want to the homeless it seems no one is, they're not caring or paying characteristics of investigate these service providers is excessive and extremely flawed and you know, you keep, you keep telling us to go to where we continuously get

abused and government they just i go they don't see us as human and you want to us. you're not going to do me like that. nod your head but it's like you want to block my voi, you want to bridge me from showing documents, it's not appropriate. but, do we have any, any of conversation regarding anything about service providers accountable, on people, got around with ski mask on, no type of identification, it's on video, i can produce it if you stop abridging me. it's like you havloin talking about kicking somebody's ass, supervisor that is going kick your ass.

why do you expect to have respect for government when you hire felon to police us with inferior accountability measures. in part with responsible for this, because you're the and you are to bring policy and procedure and changes to the table. so i'm saying, you're accountable i would appreciate it if you make some type of motion and legislation to ymake things better. >> thank you, sir. thank you. are you finished? you have some time left. >> yeah, i understand, it's >> clarify the

commission secretary with receive communication between meetings and i want today make sure that the people of the public knew how they can share important information including video files with us can we reiterate how to share that information. >> absolutely. >> as many people email me directly and also email the secretary, i'm en solt if you have anything that you would like to share to any of the commissioners, we all have city email addresses but if you want to share something to the commission as a whole, you can send the email to the secretary. >> thank you. thank you, anymore remote callers? >> cal >> speaker: my name is i'm a part i'm calling in ÷i the mono lingo spanish and

portuguese speaking rv. move lies into housing. our coalition is concerned about the impact of policy often times leading to untimely tow of a v which makes due to limited opportunities, many face various and long term income that would make it possible for a family to take over a two after rapid rehousing offer. as a coalition, we have partnered with sfmta and ?÷ supervisor

melgar's office. as you heard today, we ha gifp the nature of the situation, we're seeing the state national trend and vehicular homelessness, that we should mitigate the impact of fines and for residents living in san francisco street. i ask you all to join coalition in an effort to work atively to ensure that these families are supported bit response system which gets families housed and not displaced. please do not overlook these rv residents and make sure that they are provided with the resource that's meet their needs and children. >> thank you, next caller. >> go ahead, caller, we hear you. >> speaker: hello i'm unhoused at the wilson market.to say hopefully i got the name right, i appreciate the recognition

the shione tribe at the beginning of the meeting. i noticed a lot us are economy workers.ób i'm one of them when my gig takes me out of the city of san francisco and the high number of vehicles and dynamic delta of make up of homeless community is growing rapidly is so much greater recognizing in the media. this, higher end areas. i noted d-more militaryization of the homeless population and i don't believe is anything but a reaction to the way that the homeless are being treated as @of

which is significantly different than in the past.qy it's already been mentioned by this meeting by others that the camper population is growing rapidly. the concentration of homeless people as it stands right now is out in the open air. but we knowwhat's a new president to implement programs like camps, in the southern border and you've got everybody in between we're told and warned that camps are coming in where all the fire has happened. there is all of so people are legitimately of being rounded up and stuck on buses and handcuffed by any

means being taken away. and you can see the behavioral health response in the streets especially in ty right now. the problem is growing so response. that's all i have for public >> thank you. >> clerk: there is one more caller. >> there is one more caller, i'll allow the gentleman to make a comment. >> speaker: hi good morning, commission, my name is miguel ca[8rrand today, so yes, definitely i want to couple things. the first thing, really making me mad and really anxious to see the city trying to implement and allow to the rvs community from where they are. it's a really serious problem,

because the week aid families or the city do the process, trauma to the parent, trauma to the childrens, and we have noth move into a safety place or a place that can call this is myspace, this is my home, it is not. so the only thing we doing is trying to implementing and allow to remove the people. and this is not nice. probably you have children have childrens and if they hear, that the e whole thing to remove every one, how are we going to put in the to put something. and every one who is trying to do this process. before we want to do anything, we need to provide housing. we need to provide a safety space where they can move the trailers and rvs and be safe. we can get ideas from other communities.

many years, 30 years ago, the city from here to outside and i have to live outside for all of these years and they really coming back. but one thing, i remember and i see where i live. they have this lqrv communities with the space and they running their rvs along without no problems. and i walking in this areas. we need to do something for them. the other thing i want to mention is the state, gavin new some to arresting him to re from the camps or whatever the this is a problem. because gavin newsom don't provide no sof these camping sites in all of these sites, we have the children and families. and we still keeping attacking

hfreely bato our homeless people besides to provide services, thatimportant to provide shelter but after the shelter k about how we move to permanent housing. and they helping me to the streets, to be right here right now, we don't have a chance. and to keep talking and for families and childrens to making sure every single children and homeless have a place to live. thank you so much. >> thank you. thank you. sir.for the public for making comment and i would like to op do we have? >> we have one more caller in the queue, the last comment. >> go ahead caller, we hear you. >> speaker: hi, this is jordan my pronoushe her, first solidarity with the rv dwellers, yeah for all the reasons that other public

and i really hope that you know, that the community and this heavy handed enforcement is really big step backwards for the city. also i'm excited to of like you know, looking forward to hearing the report on all been working on for sometime and is better. there is a lot of people that eviction is pending. that needs to be taken into consideration. i'm hoping to hear more about this. also on the commissionst it was touched upon, i'm hating how, i believe in th commissions and i think that this commission can be a net positive. of course if we have to discuss like realigning some bodies and have that conversation, don't be print tiff, there is been

a--prescriptive. and i want of having a committee under the commission. and finally, like, if there is like you know, something that is going to be posted on phs store like paperwork that we have to sign and some like new policy or something, the commission needs to hear about, we all know what we're talking b.that causlot of panic attacks and mistrust and putting in con tekt. thank you, i yield my time. >> thank you. thank you, okay, we'll open up to commissioners, i'll start from my right. >> i can call them for you. first one is commissioner albright. >> thank you very much, i appreciate it. and thank you director. i have two comments the first one being a question, i it's on page 26 of the slide deck you

and mentioned add backs for clarifications, are there any pending ad backs? being a request, maybe not obviously being a request for nonprofit to reestablished funding that they may have cut through the process? >> okay, thanks so much i appreciate it. is, i'm seeing a no. if there is any, of course just let us know. >> we will. >> thank you so much. the second is clarification about my request in terms of the grand jury report. i made that request prior the commissioner approving the ballot initiative and understand that there will be a report coming out september 1, i take that back. sorry. a report coming back in 2025

under the ballot initiative. my request is, is limited to what is the impact of the overless oversight commission authority and responsibility to appoint members to the board and shelter grievance, and shelter monitoring home oversight committee. i know this was in a larger content and my request is simply what iimpact to our responsibility to move this work forward. >> okay, i think we can, i that in my report, next month. >> that >> okay. >> commissioner guerrero. >> kay, i have i'll start with comment sxz then i'll move to qutions. so you know i've been housed for four years i have t not one but two.

i'm hearing a lot of trauma as somebody in lived experience and that's what my seat is assigned to my role to affirm some of the comments in the public. and yeah, i think what is happening right now is ridiculous, li the reasons that people are, that the city is moving people arouin the way that they are, is supposedly to have an impact it's exasperating, talking about the kids are going to be in san francisco in the future with more issues. and be harder to serve. i mean, i came out of homelessness by accessing public service an career. i'm just living proof that it works, what the providers recommend is what works. and then you know, also to assert that, you know, as a commissioner, i have to be clear for myself on what power i do have and what i don't have.

we can make recommendations to the department to make policy changes and we aim to do that, that's why we're here. and also to say, i have worked shelter, i've seen staff treat clients very badly. i've seen people punch clients, i've heard that urban alchemy was ur5ling blefp over people's stuff. i have witnessed it myself. i want to offer all ofthat first and then from there, i'll go to my questions to the director. so yeah starting with, with the housing exits said 55 percent were to other housing placement. i'm curious, is that 0transfers or another type of housing placement?

?ment good morning, commissioner thank you that includes transfers to permanent housing.include somebody moving into section 8, it can include anything that is permanent housing where everybody has a lease definitely considered a positive exit from the homeless response system. >> awesome, thank you so much. >> so the part of our man torial, i just want to know if you can say a little bit more on what is happening with that. >> so ye, wkthat are listed as john torial are in process of being turned over.

so there was a wide range of units within those, i don't have the number in front of me. some of are units that are in process of being turned over ann right side within three to four weeks of when the unit is vacated that it could be turned over and ready for the next and referrals matched. so some of those aountsds are within the time frame. some have been off line for longer period and it's for two reasons. one is it have extensive damage it takes longer to schedule of that work, sometimes it even requires different contractors depending on the type of work that needs to be done. and in some cases there are some agency that's are under in their janitorial so it's taking them longer than our typical expectation of three to four weekthose providers ensuring that they're filling all of their positions. >> awesome, thank you so much.

obviously, we've talked a lot sweeps, shelter occupancy is at 93 percent.wanted to ask how has the department been discussed internally and kilike if shelter ak pont see is at 93 percent, what is the plan generally? >> yeah, so you know, what we talk about internally is we continue to house people, continue to provide shelter for people. we are goinyou know, 24 hours in response of anything we know about to make sure that we're offering to people and offering can reoffering, and we couple of weeks what our elter inventory looks like. we're still seeing a number of refusal for shelters because people need different things at diwe're aware, but we're offering what we have. and we will be tracking to see if we start to get to where we can't offer and will have to come

up with a plan for increasing but right now you know, we just have to keep track i >> okay, so you have not reached a point where there will be no more. >> no. >> thank you for provide thating information. far as like lake behrsaid goes. just curious, my understanding is a lot of family services are at capacity by the providers. is there capacity to serve the families on the side of the providers? did that make sense? >> i'm not sure i understand your question. >> i want feedback from family services that have longer wait list than they have, like is that going to work with the need to respond to merced and the families there? >> marrian do you want to answer that?

>> marrian sanders for commissioners, are you talking about permanent housing or all of the above? >> yeah, i don't want to miss speak so i'm saying in general, service south side beyond over taxed. i'm wondering if there is been conversation and just in general, maying anything you want to comment on that, really. >> yeah, so the favor family plan is the response to the over taxing the family system anout those temporary housing ing the rapid rehousing lots. and there is a plan to kind of convene the providers and understand what they have the capacity to add within their contracts and work from there. but yeah, that's. >> are there any specific providers specifically assigned to merced folks?

>> there is no specific assigner there is collective and we did the last kind of out reach and ought the providers in to create access to the services that we have ksavailable in our system currently. >> all right, thank you. and, oh yeah, and my last question was, so i read that govern newsom had 3.3 billion for one funding towards mental and behavioral health. and i'm curious if the depa >> yes, i believe that came out and the due date is december 2024, we will be work withing our dph partners on that. >> awesome, thank you. >> thank you, commissioner guerrero.

commissioner wi laguana. >> thank you, commissioner guerrero, i'm here because of the benefits what you said beautiful and well said thank you. so i have three related to data displays in our graphs. on slide 17 i also sent some questions which i received the answers to, i believe that will be circulated all with the rest of you, i don't read it allowed here. but specifically is there a

possibility, this is whoever, i think you're the right person to talk to about this. is there a possibility that we can a category for self sustaining, in other words, has not requiring subsidies anymore? >> the reason i ask, you have two commissioners who at run time were the beneficiaries of these service sxz now self sustaining, that's obviously, it's not always going to be possible and often possible for a verity of whatever reasons. but where ever it is possible, we should optimize and we should @6beto to what policies and approaches

may increase the ethicacy and likelihood that people may be self sustaining but the first part what is not measured is not approved. can we get a month over monat. >> yeah, give us a little of context on? >> so the question is on shelter reservation wait list, can we get a month over month change? >> yeah. >> so we can get a sense, is it getting better, worse dramatically worse? i think now in this moment and timeimportant number to pay attention to. slide 27 cost estim the commenters pointed out that when folks are in rvs shelters that is the city is not paying for. i would like to see the

cost estimate is for rv housing programs. by the way, thank you for that slide. estimates breaking it down, i think it's really helpful, i for the community and for the public to understand the relative cost benefit of these different approaches. >> so safe parking. >> yes. >> we can definitely add that in. >> just so we have clarity around what these policy approaches are costing us and hopefully so we can make wise decisions about how to reallocate our resources. two quick questions, the first one is pretty quick. on relocation assistance, so i think, you know, i

hear that we're offering relocation assistance to folks, itlike we're moving towards offering relocation assistance to folks when shelter is not available or concord ant with offer of shelter. get to relocation assistance. how many time is needed to assess, where would they go? it sounds like this may take more time, it may not be something that we can turn around in five minutes, i'm guessing.

>> thank you, mary, chief deputy. there are some folks that want to relocate. that can take 48 hours, 24 hojutaking the reservation tickets all that kind of stuff and then you have folks that are and thep you have folks that they have edgo back with and there needs to be some remediation to kind of be that bridge, resolve whatever the issues are and get them back. it's under the umella is our problem

solving work and that's the those, those their relatives or whatever it is that we're trying to relocate them to or whatever service we're trying to connect them that may be outside of the city. it's definitely from a speck tum of 24 48 hours to to help them relocate. >> just a quick follow-up question on that. you know, when we make that contact with somebody and they're in that come ten --contemplate stage, how do we initial contact?on them to make contact with us. walk me how we keep that conversation going? >> at a high level, it's really the case manager or problem solve that her is assigned to

that on going connection with the client and also where ever it is that they're tryine to. >> okay, so it's, yeah i can see that it bdifferent on case by case basis. and just out of curiosity, is it how many of can you give me a sense of how many people that you interact with don't have a phone or a way to communicate? do you hageneral sense of what the percentage is there? >> i can't tell you right now but i'm sure i can get that information from my team and follow-up with you. generally, we do run into folks that do not have an actual phone and you ow, we're able to facilitate them getting in

contact or being a bridge for them.xo all right, i appreciate that. thank you. last question, slide 19. the vacancies of, in our psh. i red press reports and i read that we

ty that we can these units that are awaiting for referral? to be used as a temporary interim shelter? i know that's a tricky question but i'm thinking. we do have the street to home program where people and we're looking to expand that as much as we can but we need these psh units to be psh, some of related practicality and the extreme need for that. but,al is to continue to get the vacancy !ó wing some bad ideas maybe, but i'm a fond of

that idea. a quick follow-up question on just that. n there is vacant units, are we tracking the turnover rate. i run a tracking business, our utilization may be high but there may be a location that are vacants for month end, if we're tracking the turnover rate and and deputy director sanders, i can see you busting at the seams, so please. >> thank you. >> marrian sanders, yes, we do track the number of that a unit stays empty, that's part of our data collection process. >> thank you so much, i'm done, thank you everybody. >> thank you, commissioner laguana, commissioner evans. vice chair.

>> so, is been a mention yet that the body that the city had a change in policy impacting the homeless community that was pretty major this week. there were two official communication that's i saw, wup was the mayor's police and the second was a police notice. listing all the number of citation that people experienreport that a man was placed in handcuffs, place back of a police squad car, all of thinks belongn. all of his belongings were taken, all. the sidewalk with nothing.

the standard posted a video of a man who had his belongings pulled out of his hands, and a police officer that i did not recognize, i don't thithe homeless operation team, i don't know that he has experience dealing with and the trauma was yelling at the man, relax, relax, relax.supervisor chan has requested information to sweeps and this change in policy that has lead to now criminalization, people now having court dates. we know from m research that people's more bidity that

people are impacted by their sweeps. when peopve their belongings taken, they're likely to lose id, medications, safety gear,and it makes it harder for us to do our job in getting them to a safe and stable exit from homelessness. the mayor's policy i want to be please that the policy i saw is that 's no longer policy for san francisco

to provide. if you refer to the documents that i referenced, there are situations now where police and are the only twoinvolved in going sweeps where no %vnotice is required. it's clear thatinsufficient time to pack up their belongings and that these sweeps are designed remove visible homelessness, signs of vial is to take people's tents, it is not to give them time to pack it up.out that this budget reduces the amount of out reach that is going to be conducted. so our ability to connect with people before the sweeps is also being impacted.ere is a reduction

in the q hoc's team budget and our shelter are functionally at capacity. for adults we're 94 and we know that those c, remaining beds are being so my first question. is it appropriate for this department to communicate to the mayor to the department of emergency management to sfpd and commission and todpw, a simple

statement about the impact that these sw have on people experiencing can really urge to prevent the loss identification, medications, and survival gear. can we do that? >> are you asking me n do or the department. >> the department. >> the commission can do that.so the police put out a tice that listed out all the citation and then listed hsh document, right, that showed way to see access shelter. >> right. we have not communicated the impacts that are known, the set backs, there is research experience in this department. can we not have a policy statement from this that talks aboutkh that, that it

turts. >> i think the commission can do that if the commission choose to see do that. we've definitely had the conversat,eions, i don't know if we can issue policy statement attment we're in the conversation a lot because this is a sltopic right now. and we definitely share what we know about best prac so the only walk up shelter is the dolores shelter? >> yes. >> and can confirm for the are available and if there is turn away and how many people are >> we can, we can actually provide that information ibnext month and we can send it to you

in the meantime, yes. >> can we clarify that officers that are conducting sweeps have access to shelter beds, can you confirm how they have access to each day? >> wella set number that we have committed to. and if we need to replenish, we replenish. >> given that we'only reallocated five beds. >> but if we >> can we get often those beds are being used by lfpd? >> yeswe can, but -- ~>> i've spoken to officers in the field and they don't know y how to access these beds. >> there should be. >> in handcuffs, has been as brief as want shelter right? >> well has been offering people

shelter. >> so i've gone out and i'm witnessing people in handcuffs. i personally have seen two people put in handcuffs.we're going out 24 hours in advance. >> so i went back, and i report focused our progress in the last fiscal year. so we looked at a full 12 months. on the housing vacancieswe had 436, and this re 793 vacancies. this is a chronic problem. it is that this is an intractable problem in the sense that it's been v%s and this number is not decreasing quickly enough. so my request we really focus on the an agendized item each month to

talk about the and what resources are needed to get these onlinf.2j because right now for every one of those units, that going unused people sitting in shelters for months and years. we need to i'm sick and tired of seeing thwais y month. it's been a year. we've talked about seeing this, i would like toe this agendized every month until to an acceptable level. >> commissioner the number is too high we've had increase in inventory. >> it's 800 year to year base on the same numbers.

i also convey any extreme disaabout rvs for over a year. we've had members of the community that were displaced, come and speak to us. money is there. i'm familiar with the back office should enanigans and i eésay cut i get that there are legitimate reasons to not move with the site, the ones that i'm is not legitimate. and i, i am very concerned that this body is completely being shown to we

just simply talk instead of taking action.wanting to get clarification ting, it was my understanding that we were going to have that presented to us in this meeting. >> we were hoping to present it to this meeting that is true and i said that back in march that we would have it ready by august meeting, unfortunately, some of the report information to us we had to verify so for this meeting, we will do a full presentation. >> i was hearing that it was 'embrged by the mayor's office.

is that is part of our normal doing that is required by had youed. >> we work with had youedsinger, we work with the mayor's office, we r providers, we want to make sure that we're all aligned with our messaging, that's what we do every time it comes out. that theat we've got the right data. we want to do that and make to come back with corrections. was not fully correct, so we will>> i look forward to seeing the data. i just want to call out the

hoement on what is happening. tand that with kamala harris being candidate and being called bit media, the san francisco, the are all under ! that thatúhas prompted news newsom and breed to take some of these actions, but i reiterate for the sake of political expedient see cs homeless people are being harmed.r evans, can you and next on the list commissioner williams and then commissioner guerrero and i'll give an opportunity for commissioner laguof utu

to everybody who concerns, this is not and i want to say i appreciate everything everybody does. have questions into vl also has to do with questions that commissioner evans brought up. the communities that are vacant because they have one crew that can be accountable ready? that's a lot of units for people7g can we have one group that works on it or is it each providers have their own maintenance team? you know, is money needs to be allocate asked really

focused on so thatn't come month after month and find out that we have place that's use people that the taxpayers have paid for that is sit thering but one way or the another, needs to work. some little and some a lot. back to some that needs a lot work that are damaged by the previous or if i were to rent by a housinat the regular marketplace and play regular rent. i had a party on event destroyed the unit there would be ramifications to me, that concern with charge me ke my deposit and even take me to small claims court.there for somebody that has destroyed their previous unit? what is there?

so some understanding of that would be nice.6o and that's it regarding real estate. >> speaker: regarding 0óyour question oncinger each provider have their own crew fixing the unit. we have points hiring a company that will go from sight to site, that's we could explore. regarding the do high level of damage to om other issues that honestly they don't the economic means to really pay for the damage, we try to get them services, in other places, sometimes they end up 6ú moving to better locations because they're not able to take care of themselves. in some cases

those are individuals that alet evicted. >> i mean setting a fire to a place is a criminal activity. >> correct. >> you know, if i were to do that, to a bathro here, would be prosecuted. >> hat happens. arson is arson. >> thank you. my other question is rv site, i live in the west side, i know thysis resident of the west side.te that

has more residents why did we focus on doing it on the west side? and where do we have in mind now, i read on a caravan, they moved to the zoo road it was in the zoo road before and it was causing problem for the that i can their kids to the handicand it was a conflict, are we thinking of. and just another thought, just beforephobia of driving on freeways, so if i was going to san mateo county i would take that long road around jeneva and along the water front finally to san mateo, luckily i'm better

now. but i saw a lot of empty land, palace, has there been any conversation about putting a safe protected rv site for these familistill within the city boundaries? and who provides these rvs? you know, i'm new to i come with my family, it's hard enough to get an /,mapartment or any kind of housing, t me and get me an rv for free? s? how do we get ñithe rvs, these are my three questions, thank you. >> city attorney: thank you, commissioner.this that tight knit community and some people support each some people probably representative or own their rvs.are displaced we try to find places within that neighborhood for them to be. we have tried a number of sites

where we're working with the fire department to see if we can get you know, if we cawork. so we've done fit test one that we thoughgoing to be great. we still oking engaged in some conversations and we have not nailed a site. it's a community that has been living in that area and we don't as a policy mlot of empty land maybe, but i think part of been asking this departments of our real estate department et cetera, kind of available out there?

oever jurisdiction it is. i can see us having a few of them but we have not been able to identify a space. >> how long does it need to be? they're just city requirement taking over a space but, you not our department's area of expertise that's and that's why the fit test happens re multiple departments come out and say, what they're requirement would be ng. >> thank you. and my last question, on page we talked about we talked about exiting, 55 percent exit p'placement, that is understood, that two percent exit to homelessness,

13 percent exited to shelter. so írwent from, i just want to understand it, they went housing to shelter, they preferred to go into shelter from housing? so that would be cumulative of 15 percent. >> marrian sandrs, chief deputy, it's not a preference that they go sometimes it can have a different numbof ranges associated with why they are housing into a shelter, it could be affordable, their subsidy is up and the can no longer afford to pay on their own. it could be because they're going through an eviction process which is associated rdability or damage whatever the case may be. i would not lean in on preference at all. explaining.

that's it for me. >> thank you, commissioner. >> thank !you, as we're talking about this, i'm remembering back when the formed. and i represent supervisor safai, said, we o%neeto start looking outwards. i mentioned that i 2@vienna to do the field study there, you walk down the street ople out doors, that's it. obviously, that of things that would be difficult toeplicate. but there are a lot of policy changes that i think we could replicate. is a movement by social housing erent, folks who have attended scott wiener.t is just to say, we need to start looking and we did discuss in forming the does depoliticalizing does not work. i also remember when we formeis that our

focus should be to uplift the strategic plan. the sweeps they do not work in support of the strategic plan.e obvious, you know, piece that we should try to come together as as a commission. so yeah my question is how can we come together and advocate to demonstrate with the data that what is happening right now with the sweeps is not a in alignment with supporting the five-year of the plan of the department. with the police notice, that they said this is the o site people. it also stated unlawful to inflect cruel and unusual punishment. as you saw in the standard, tearing things out of people's

hands i believe to be d unusual punishment. it's not the way. the people who hold the trauma ing cultural competency, what does it mean to throw it out the window because of this policy change.the other thing, i want to add, i think that assessment is so critical you know, i ran a program that was a shelter, transitional home and then subsidy and then there people can graduate.b% what i learned is people have to be placement.%n they're trying to get themselves together whether it's their disa they work or going back to school.

a lot of people don't that's not what you can stabilize also learn how to follow tenant guidelines. and people are still in need of needing mo my point to the sweeps losing your medication, take psych medis to lose it, so people losing their medication in thes it's a public safety issue and not only for the residents indoors and out doors right? like i mean people ar sometimes i don't is throwing bottles in my direction but the risk of people losing their medication in these sweeps is

going to amplify the behavioral health that we p] streets where when the resources are already over taxed. i know somebody that worked for hsh was stabbed. that will strategize how we will put out some messaging what we see as a direct impact negatively on these swthe number of deaths that we will be seeing as well. so to provide that context and that's my co >> commissioner laguana. >> chair butler, first i want to thank you the speaker order, i just wanted to respond commissioner evans. but i appreciate and actually applaud keeping the meeting movinin a structured way, so first of all thank you for that.

second of all, i want to publichow deep my appreciation is for you and your and the work that you put into this commission and the detail that you showb' to every meeting, to the friendship that you and i have, to so much i've what i think u bring to this community as a whole and to this body. and i think sometimes people see us up here and having exchanges and they don that we have internal relationships and so i start with publicly conveying my deep respect for you and yo i was not going to say that when i jumped in, what i was going to say real quick is on the pit data. so when i saw that it was being

delayed and had a chance to catch up with you on this because actually qmit came in late last night. the department has to be cautious how they verbalize it but i can maybe a little less cautious. but what they got from needs a lot of work. and the challenge is if it goes awed state, it can cause damage. and so it has, lot of clean up. perhaps more clean up than they were anticipating. y understanding is it's going to be released within a week or two possibly e at the most, so it should be releads by the to the next meeting. i probably won't be to persuade you that it was not politics.had a conversation about those issues they do appear tcu

tform that will be on the website that will ine transparency and accessibility of the survey think we can see that soon and that we continue this work been advocating for. as you heard me today asking for more clarity on the data and provide us with data that with help make informed decisions. and you know, with respect to the larger conversation. i think it's important for all of us understand that where the actual coand where we need to engage with t, and i would hope concentrate our efforts and to be able to find a way to speak in consensus and solidarity, that conversation has to be with the public because it e public that is informing vernment responds.

and it is the public that needs be persuaded of of whatever the data ethicacy of any given policy approach supports, that conversation needs to happen with the public.going to have as i hope we will have, evidence that data supported, conveation about how do we get from point a to point b inartest most affective way so we can help the most amount of people we need to somehow keep at the top of our heads meat of that conversation is happening in the public. and that our elected officials are they're charged with representing the public. they have some ability to influence but we're part of that conversation. and ithink about the importance of that it's not a couple of random red but

it's actually the public that needs to vípersuaded and that's where i think the lion share of with respect to people losing medication, it seems to me and the public.sure what survival gear includes. >> just to wrap this up, you to collaborate with a document that would help educate the public. >> is that what you're >> yes i'm open to creating a document structure and some guidance to these people many of worn.

i'll be happy to work with you me just interject. i have 9 questions that i'm not going to go through.to say, as commissioner laguandata and people, i think facts are important in this political climate and we need to get to the facts. and i think we get do that so i think if we lead with ght thing and we don't always with politics but we lead with the people. so i think, having an op to not only come to a commission meeting but i'm going to with going to the public, a lot of work is done outside of these meetings.

seeing what people are doing and lead with that only, lead with that ly, and making sure that those that connecting with are those experiencing homelessness, so with that, the commission decides on how so we will have a conversation on this on how we want to approach moving forward.i have spent a lot of time on this, purposef#9ully beca do feel like we've been in this, we've been in this for a now and obviously, the department has done some exceptional things in terms of moving this forward. but there are a lot of rink lz and it's get in the trenches a little bit more.

so with that i would like to move on. we have our which i want to apologize for those who dithe complete director's report but it will be online, certainly go online to get that report. and i think there is also a page, i somebody forgot to print front and badge, thmissing in the agenda which is agenda item number 10. i need to look forward. okay, this is of our hsh director of housing services mr. salvador, please provide your presentation, hopefully it's not too long. >> hopefully not. >> and we will have an opportunity for the provide public comment and commissioner as well. >> thank you. thank you, commissioner.a public presentation so if we can get that up, that

>> funded unit so this is a

provider that, you know, we feel have done a really good funded by the federal government. and moving forward all unit in our portfolio will be inspected at least every other year. so we can go to the next slide.just logitics, tenant will be notified at the time will take place and mails and signs will be placed on the doors and we'll coordinate with the property manager. this is really important to us, there are three different possibilities when you do an inspection. one the community passes thed inspection and the otis fails inspection because of the reason that it's s property manager. so then, the property mana or the owner are responsible

for those and the third is that because of the resident either has too much they are blocking for example, the door and that a safety issue. have to make sure that the corrections can happen so wecan get to a better space. just so the dimension of the amount of water that is happening, about 150 buildings in our portfolio, we're talking about 9,000 units altogether.v7 locally funded over 6,000 units. and abou155 are occupied at the time. we did a ect to put together this program. and maybe just take a quick look at the site.

onsite three, just as a sample 14 of the units. five units fail and in most cases, the responsibility of the fixing with the property manager in swede off situations associated with tenants. site 3, a little bit larger the units passes, 39 of the units failed. 18 fails because of the tenant issues. so you have most of the failing was associated with property manager. so in se, you know, we work with the property sure that the mitigation happens and to x the situation. one question that we have received iwhat is the failings related to?

so next slide, that will you a sense if you take a look at the signs, there electrical issues, conditions, smoke detectors have been removed, sometimes it's done by tenants that in the unit and they don't want the smoke detector. so the idea is to fix the unit and put it in better conditions and fix windows and make sure the units are, you know, at the standard that we want to have. as we're rollout these improvements, we also have to amend the, the program agreements with residents to make sure that they allow the inspectors, once again, they'ry inspectors. so in the process, every single

resident will be asto sign the program agreement that they have with the property managers. one of the paragraph with extremely confusing, we have corrected that. we are resident and we're work withing the provider that made a mistake, that has been fixed. our to increase the quality of the housing that we offer our residents. so we ha that we think are going to be great. for example, the man he when subsidies are terminated in the system, used to be just populated by employees of the city.w panels are going to include providers working in this space. so we're making improvement trying to make the housing trying

to be more including equity in processes and systems. that's my presentation, if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer. >> thank you, we're going to open up the public who have questions or comments around the inspections, please make your comments. >> speaker: jordan she and her, i'm glgot clarification around this. and i think this would be positive especially since, the thing is we're really suspicious when we hear the word inspection obviously, because there are a lot of very unscrupulous providers, i'm glad there is a third party. that needs to be, it needs to big conversation either way. any westerns were of course, as long as i've had several conversations with salvatore.

should have been presented to us before this was rolled out. i feel like, this and the whole entire subsidy termination policy because we don't have context on this, we is going on and i had to write an article where some things may be outdated.efwas submitted before i had those conversations, so thank you so much. >> just say that we absolutely agree. this is something that should have come to the commission. we're making sure ly understand what rises to the level of commission everybody is learning, but everybody agrees. >> when in doubt, please reach out. we want to make sure that the public has an opportunity thank you for your presentation. >> yes, sir. speaker: for starters where is the cot n#

understanding that there was an existing contract you were able to use for these pilot inspections? is there a needed amendment to that contract?ke it's not going to come before us? >> that's correct. there is contract that with nann mckay as i explained they have been doing inspections for federally funded unit. so the contract was there. >> so can est the details of the contract. that would be great. was sued by the housing authority and i think this is a vendor that i don't understand why we would expanding our relationship unless there is some really to do that. so i just would love to hear why they were selected, okay. >> is it okay with you if we bring that to next meeting? >> yes.aá >> so i appreciate that there was a policy update that impacted psh tenantas one of kind of three areas that i had

questions about. so the other areas were the third party and subsidy review committee, can we touch questions at this moment? >> yeah, i think, it's this item. >> policy update, yeah the change.for my question for you, the third party payments, we received from multiple tenants at thc properties, examples of forms that thewere being asked to sign by july in some cases, the box for had been prechecked. and these were not people that had issue with payments and arrears. so i wanted to clarify the third party icy change. why would that be applicable to a payment arrears situation? >> thanfor the question, commissioner, ssa director of housing. that was a mistake, the

provthe boxes that should have never happened. more over that paragraph is--we apologize that it was there and has been changed. >> so for those tenants that were told they had to sign this update by july 31, that was yesterday can you clarify whaation will be going to those tenants now that you've corrected the form?u@team has communicated to the provider in question that that should be corrected and they need to change the form. >> okay, public that were listening that were being asked to sign by july 31, should the expect any consequences if they fail to 4 >> we will make sure that there >> thank you for putting that on the record. thank you very ify in the pilot where the issues were found?there were no issues determined to be the

owner's responsibility. how is that determined? not the owners versus the management. given their leases and legal experts are reviewing and determ >> yes, the third party is made bility the owner has, for example the owner may elevator at the boiler if there is no hot , there is the responsibility of the owner. fixing a or window, those are the responsibility of manager. >> thank you for cl so this inspectors are being given copies of lease and then determining. >> they are aware of what the responsibility is. >> what >> okay. >> and property manager also have that information and if they feel that they need to fix k$ something that is the responsibility of the owner, they quickly. >> yes, k> yes. >> yes, i understand that a

probsituation elevator that may lead to a possible, you know, it's really problematic, that this property may fallout of portfolio of solutions. >about to start doing inspecks. we're going to bkeeping track of all of that. >> okay. how are the sites >> says that again. >> how are you prioritizing, what sites get visited first? >> so we hav+sites in buildings older. so we have a portfolio of new buildings that rewe have acquired. those are going to be a year or two from now. we're prioritizing besides where we've had more issues because we want to make sure that we make >> the last question i had was the other change of g around a subsidy reviewtee, can you clarify that what that body is, the committee members determine what role they're playing? >> that's hope that's one of

the changes and upgrades that we are making. as i mentioned before. it used to be that so that legacy, the new body that is going to be making that determination it will be made up of sepeople with living experience.been set up, we hope to make it for equitable. >> i'm sorry, is that one going to be one of the bodies that reports to this commission? >> that's one thing that we can consider.

?flt we're in the process of that. >>would put a request that we have bylaws or whatever it's going to be the governorance of this body. thank you. >> thank you. commissioner laguna? >> yeah just a quick question, there ishere, you have total number of psh, 9203 this is something that i with with respect to what actual inventory is.í' but i gets question is, it's 9203, i believe we've since february of 2024, i might

be wrong about that. do you have any sense of what the disconnect is there? >> i can check and get back to you. >> we may have to use a figure from a presentation that we made before but we can check on that? >> okay, and then very minor point, i did but it takes to you a box drive that you need log in access to. so if we can get access or link it's on that slide, it's a link that says click here to w view site specific listing and data. if we can get something so we can actually see what that data is, that would be helpful. >> okay, i don't have control

over that but we can talk internally. >> okay, no problem. >> thank you. >> thank you, commissioner laguana. so this be made to the public site and link can it be posted on the website? >> it seems like zyou have to type in a code. >> secretary i'm referring to the presentation that he made on the housing program and i believe it is slide three. but that link is not accessible to us. >> okay. thank you. >> commissioner guerrero.leave at 12 to go upstairs for a

transgender month. so the project is amazing, what concerns me is execution.yin the early stages, so i just want to provide this feedback and ask some questions.that i've done with landlord renter lig gator, mold is like a major concern to me. i would love to see if we can get dñmore specific data around mold units s actually you know, that's probably down the line. one of the units that was doing mediation, they had mold that was reappearing in units because they were replacing the pes. so it's not a maintenance it's a cons i kind of try to use that as woscenario because that construction project went on for seven years when it take six

months. and seven years of people seniors, and elderly folks having chronic health issues, very sad so spend your life feeling that way and opening up the walls leading to other issues like rodent infestation and dust. i sñn't know if you to provide information on mold and assessing molding units. >> yeah, if a unit has mold it will be reported by the third party and we're going >> so, this is one of the issues happening right, so if there is mold in the unit and somebody is living in it. where is the tenant going to go? and the issue that we're seeing in this situation was the property was getting them, the money that they repair was made off of small amount of rent contributions?they moved tenants out of their other units they were not able to bring in the revenue to pay for the construction which is why it went from six months

to 7 years. where would the tenant go if they're assessed unit has mold nsidered inhabitable. >> usually when you have situations like that the property manaresponsible for providing another unit to the tenant to move in. either in one of the buildings that they have under mathat's not possible then they can get in touch with department and we can look for a unit in the different building. >> great, i want the tenants to be aware. because many tenants were saying, we should be put in a hotel by but we're not. just if there is any kind of information byat that's available to them. so just moving on to the sake know, as far as the clutter with 90 again sensitivity and behavioral health as somebody said. even among my friends, some of my friends are extremely tidy, some a little bit different lifestyle.how is the clutter being assessed.

we used to in the transitional housing. how and in that 90 days what support is available to the tenant is this able to partner widph with clutter? >> that's exactly with the plan commissioner there are situations that the tenant is willing to work with the provider onsite, you know, get together and they work tenant and they take care of the issues. there are situations where we get to the department involved and that's exactly the plan that we have. >> great, and so, i guess, to ask my questions, wh determining when clutter is too much and how? if you know? >> that at this point, that's the, the inspector decides if the clutter is blocking houbl

be have support for the tenant. >> i to really emphasize this, a lot of 5rissues, the public commented like earlier i witnessed, when we're suppose to provservices, they're not--if we're framing this as like, this is an inspection to make a unit inhabitable, they have their side of the responsibility but if we're coming in like, jordan said and really kind of policing and controlling which a lot of people who don't have adequate training are going to do due to lack of xhaoerns. so is there a mental and favor and cultural sensitivity available to the ec that they will be trained on as far as like their inspection process goes?

>> these inspectors have many of our buildings for many to my knowledge, we have not al health training sensitivity training. i knis very aware with the stipulatelation and we have not had complaints about them not being sensitive to the tenants that we're serving. >> okay. and i would just say, commissioner, we hear you and having, worked at the department of aging services for many years, this topic of conversation and we had a lot of supportive service to people who had

so the commission overand it's too bad that we don't have the attorney here, because we can really ratify but i'm going to say what my understanding is. we can advise on policy we can issue resolutions, we can make recommendations, we can ask people to those are the the five sort of powers that we have. we don't have the power to

investigate, we don't have the power to adjudicate. so when we get these whistleblower complaints, which this is the first and certainly not the last. we can do as we it up with staff, we can speak, if u can speak with the whistleblower, if you want capacity as an individual commissioner. but as a body, we can ask people to come and testify but we canno investigate a claim, i don't know if that helps.that helps greatly. my main question was, what i didn't want the person, and ÷& to the person what i didn't n think that it's being n on deaf ears. that's the reason that i brought it out, it was sent to all of us not to one particular person ns is much more aware of everything going on there. this was

brought to all of us. so i thought important to at least acknowledge that somebodyed back to them saying we got it and what yo said, is perfect. >> yeah, 100 percent. and the only other trick about sometimes the information included, may oinvolve hippa violations they may not be fqo in a position to assess that. so i you see some redsense to mention it publicly, it's out of caution wanting to wait until we have the informati >> thank you. this just exemplifies the helpful role that commissioner evans plays in the community person directly and the follow through with the department. >> in most instancei will respond follow-up or at least acknowledg >> thank you.

>> can i speak on this matter, having here and commissioner laguana outline of our powers are. we are also have the ability to review contracts and approve them. >> that's right. >> and what iheard commissioner evans say, is one the number of complaints that have been raised that are sustained smraints. so while it's not investigate tory, it is within that ability. >> 100 percent. to hold all providers and community members responsible for their roles and responsibilities. >> yes, byway, i was, i thought i including that by way of saying what she said was s adding the other powers and responsibilities. but yes, thank you for highlighting that. >> thank you all.mwe're going to

move forward. we have our consent caers are listed, they're genereux teen matters but i know that commissioner evans has requested to items 2, 3 and 4 and i believe that's the only items that i would like to ask for a motion to approve agenda item 1. >> so moved. >> second. >> it's been moved and properly seconded to approve agenda item number 1. >> is there a way. >> there is not. >> you have the agenda and may not have this page on consent calendar, i do apologize, is it on the link on line? >> yes, it's on our website. >> if you're able pull up the agenda this portion that has been omitted. i just want to open to public consent item number

1, is there any members who wish to make comment on this particular item?>> there are no callers in the queue. >> okay, so it. can we take a roll call please? >> chair butler how do you vote? >> aye. >> vice chair evans how vote? >> aye. >> commissioner albright. >> aye.r williams. >> aye. >> commissioner guerrero.m> >> he >> commissioner laguana. >> aye. >> l)tothe motion is passed. >> and i understand we can collaborate 2, 3 and 4 in the same conversation. commissioner evans you have the floor.at mean that you're asking for a vote at the end? >> correct.nt to take them separately. >> so all three of these items are related to extension of non congregate shelters monarch, the dante and e >[cova all of these

are about nine months so it to march 31 to real estate agreements so that they would all end simultaneously. i just wanted to clarify since that time flies in this world very quickly and we may be in a position to sees these shelters being

and i have my colleague here to you need more details. but through the chair, vice chair evans, budget that we've presented several anticipates keeping these shelter beds open at to 24 months. we do repro cure these sites, many of ú( open under emergency authorization during covid so. we've been in the process as we discussed at this commission of doing a request for information to try to find sites either alternative sites or conditioned services at these sites. the director of under the for those real estate negotiations and ú÷partnershi they needed an extended time to cont these short-term extensions until we can get those longer term leases in place. we don't anticipate at this to close

sites. >> thank you for clarifying that.just wanted to also say that if we were in a position where we were doing like we did with e sipo aggressive wind down of non congregate these arto fill because as people know when, when you are offered shelter bed on, most often you're being offered a congregate setting shelter bed. and these are ngregate vive at room many times priva%r bath. so when these types of offers are made, we've seen more like 95 acceptance like people were accept these as very reasonable shelter accommodation. as where congregate shelter likely to accept because they've past trauma, past things stolen. sometimes our so crowded they are getting and things

getting passed around and it's a non restless place to sleep because it's a noisy environment as well. so igoing to say, i ask that you are in if we're ever at the point where we're creatithat we actually consider usingeven for short-term shelter stay.res pid stays for people, i just want to make sure that of these very expensive accommodation, sat when, like what we saw with the sip hotels, we saw hotel rooms that unused for months and i don't want to see that happen in this case.want to reiterate my question .r1when we're reviewing these contracts that the occupancy rate is included in the material. i thinyou give me the general number that it's over didn't know what the specific occupancy level is currently. >> that's a question. >> oh.

>> thank you. >> commissioners my name is louis shelter, we do work rk hard to main ain high level of occupancy at of these sites, just checking the data currenmonarch is at 97 perce the cova is at 96 he and a dante there was some fire damage at the site so it's a lower occupancy, we had to move folks out of damage rooms so it's around 85 percent because of that issue. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. any other on these three? items? if not, i would up to the public who wish to make a comment on these consent items? remote callers? >> there are no >> okay, motion to approve? >> i'll motion to approve item 2 3 and 4. >> second. >> motion and second, ready for

the roll call.3 and 4. chair butler. >> aye. >> vice chair evans. >> commissioner albright. >> aye. >> commissioner williams. >> and commissioner laguana. >> aye. >> items are passed.now moving to 12-a this is a review aq and recreation we're happy to invite elizabeth houston who and id did i say her last name right? >> yes.ing at me like no. >> speaker: good morning, commissioners, chair butler and director, my name is elizabeth houston i'm the manager of programs of hsh. i am excited to present to you all a new grant agreement with lyric for support service sxz new permanent program that will serve transition age young adults who are transgender, gender non conforming and other questioning youth. the grant amount is 655,200 exceed
