mission district, south of market, the central city, compared to other neighborhoods, we don't have an even distribution of affordable housing over the next five, six year ends. we have a real teenager of dearth of housing. and increasing our expectation. and so-called perfect sites for affordable housing should be prioritize and up to 200 units in capacity. we saw an overlap in those and what are called large sites starting at 100 sites that would be mixed you income. it would be make sense to draw a brightline and do single development affordable housing, assume ing it's feasible. secondly on the large sites like balboa reservoir, that it be set for low-income affordable and use public funding to leverage it and the remainder is used for market cross-subsidizing moderate income that. would be a good slit and meet our housing element goals. lastly again on the portfolio, this is really at this point too early to say there is an arbitrary 50% goal or 60% goal or 20% goal. it really should be evaluated site by site, based on the perfect sites for affordable and mixed income, if they are

in pharyn, if you look at the pipeline, there are a lot of neighborhoods in the central city that really aren't going to see a lot of growth and affordable housing at all. we know that the four that were assessed and discussed during the presentation, there is a possibility that these sites could provide us the opportunity to build much-needed affordable housing in areas of the city, like soma, and the central city and in chinatown. additionally, we think that we should increase affordability of some of the sites. we think that sites that large enough to accommodate 200 units should be affordable, should be 100% affordable and that the sites that are larger than 200 units we can look at a more mixed income housing. we think that will help balance our housing in san francisco and meet the affordability mandate set out bit general plan as well acid prop k and really create a service for the public in san francisco. thank you very much for your time. >> thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, commissioners. whitney jones the director of the housing development form chinatown ucu. first
