i wanted to mention that we do have dan dan, dan lowry and representatives from puc, the mayor office of disability and the fire department here listening to this hearing. as we just heard in the testimony and the legislation before us, the creation of more affordable housing in the city is critical, because the diversity of san francisco is being decimated or devastated by displacement. and the mission is particularly hard hit. the statistics are sobering. we have the highest number of no fault evictions and continue to lose rent-controlled units every week or month. we've lost 20% of our low and moderate income households and for many tenants, their only

so it might get a little confusing. >> dan lowry of dbi is not here. my name is james. i'm the housing coordinator for the two housing executive directives and our plan review manager gary is also here available to answer your question. >> supervisor ronen: i'll start with dan and then move onto you. so, dan, are these positions considered ombudsperson position that the task force had recommended? >> supervisor ronen, thank you for calling the hearing. in a word, yes. we have one ombudsperson and we brought on carly drove is here with us today to assist with this significant undertaking, but critical important. >> supervisor ronen: these two individuals for each 100% affordable project, are they sort of the person that leads the project through and interfaces if there is issues with dbi, p.c. or any other department? >> carly and kate, are ombudspersons, our facilitators and work with the project planners in the various divisions to make sure we're delivering. we have a number of staff to satisfy each of the technical requirements with the housing staff making sure all

we are joined by cory teague as and dan lowry, and joe duffy, senior building inspector. today's presentation will cover the following topics. we have four primary items that we would like to cover. after overview of the current demolition regulations, inspection issues, dialogue about unauthorized demolition processes, including penalties and fees that currently are in place, and our general key take aways of what the major issues are that we're facing. so as all of you are probably aware at this point, the city has a handful of demolition controls, and before we begin into what we see are the challenges, we wanted to go through a little of a technical overview. although normally i try to steer clear of this technical jargon in any kind of public presentation, i think it's critical to really set the stage of understanding what the challenges are. so first, i'm not going to go into a lot of detail. this is the building code definition of demolition. chief inspector reardon will go into this a little bit more, but it is important to know that the building code does have a

that director hulie has an internal accessory unit task force that is headed by the deputy directo dan lowry and the permit services section, working with internal staff as well as pretty closely with the planning department in order to see if we can find a way to move forward those units that we know are meeting the life safety standards. as all of you have heard last month from the fir fire marshals presentation that there are some builds that do present challenges and to president mccarthy's point i think that the goal going forward is to give owners a pretty clear picture of whether they're going to be able to qualify for this type of a unit or not early on and not drag the process out, unknowingly or unwittingly, so to speak. but with that i'll be happy to answer any questions. >> thank you. >> clerk: item 9-c, update on major projects. >> the director of the building inspection and this month compared to last month roughly only 1% increase of technical reasons, nothing changed from before. any questions that you want. >> thank you, director. >> clerk: item 9-d, update on code enforceme

dan throws this thing down the right field line. two rangers runs score. they built the lead to 3-0. soon after upped it to 4-0 on a sacrifice fly. jed lowrier. marcus semien scores. 4-1. they had another 9th inning, they had cut the deficit, texas man on, sin soo- choo leaves the yard two-run homer and there you go. 6-3 the final. that kid is all sugared up with that cotton candy and ready to go and not disappointed that the a's lost. this could be a trivia question someday. name the two brothers who played on professional sports teams in the same city different sports. how about klay thompson with the warriors and his brother, trace who was claimed today by the a's on waivers. not sure if he will join the big league team or be sent to the minors. trayce thompson is now playing for the a's. >> klay played baseball as a kid but chose basketball. just not tonight. >> seems like a good decision, though. except for tonight. >> a lot of athleticism in the family. >> obviously. >> take care, good night. (whirring) and now the kung pao chicken. ah, yeah. wow. smooth. and finally, my moo shu pork. (whirring) whoo-hoo! wolowitz: oh, there you have
