we do have someone from bernal heights, brad paul. fernandez marti and calvin welsh. >> my name is william ho. i am a senior project manager with the colonel heights community center. i am here to speak about affordable housing. growth is a necessary component of any policy. help the communities are diverse -- healthy communities are reversed. sec needs to directly address the need for affordable housing. the market cannot meet affordable housing needs in the city. from 2009, san francisco underperformed in meeting housing production goals, even though the real estate market was at its peak. i mean a renewed public commitment filling this gap. scs has allocation targets, but there is no mechanism to ensure balance, or regulations. there needs to be a community stabilization policy in place. acquisition and rehabilitation of housing stock is important, along with a focus on new construction. the policy of replacement is also necessary. we must create a fair and realistic arena across the region, recognizing the need to produce affordab
