thank you. >> chair ronen: thank you. mr. mornino. >> supervisors, matthi matthias mormino. we look through people's budget and annuals, and we find usual suspects like chelsea boillard, who authored a piece around how we should reform our budget. i remember we were talking with supervisor fewer and supervisor mar and saying yeah, we might do that. but there has been a lot of fighting there. i think it's important that we increase transparency and access. too many times, we ask our constituents, our folks to come out to a hearing, stand in line for hours and hours to get two minutes to speak on something that they're passionate about. and then, as you sit there with them or as they leave the room, they're like what happened? what are they going to say? how is this question that i had a burning question for the police department's budget or the sheriff's department budget, why is it not being answered? you know, i think with this legislation, we start seeing more information come to our constituents so that really the budg

. >> thank you chair ronen. ms. diamond, i do have a couple follow up questions if you don't mind coming back up. >> thank you, what non-profit developers have you previously worked with? >> family house. the jewish community center of san francisco. the san francisco campus for jewish living. temple emmanuel. the blood bank of san francisco. >> and then you heard some testimony about not necessarily having a track record of working in certain impacted communities, what would you do to build a significant rapport with margin n -- marginalized community? >> i was listening to all the concerns that were expressed concerning my qualifications on equity, communities of color and how they're affected. i will say two or three things about that. the first is my decision to leave private practice representing for profit developers was a statement about what i thought was important going forward. it's why i, you know, worked with non-profits, where i felt using my particular skills, i could have the biggest impact on helping

. >> chair ronen: thank you so much. >> what he said. i'm sam dennison, and for the last nine months, i've been convening in my living room, a tenderloin committee dedicated to the harms of drug use in our community. submit today mr. haney's -- submitted to mr. haney's office some of the legislation that we're working on today. when i said what he said, i really mean it. i live in a place where one of the people that i treasure the most was shot in the back over a drug deal. somebody living next door to me was shot through a window with somebody who was playing with a gun. i've also seen people get out of jail trembling because they've lost their home and everything. what we consistently do is the same thing over and over again, and i'm heartened to hear that there are a lot of people from the drug policy i lines group and -- policy alliance group and others who will bring to the table new ideas. i'd like to foster the conversation that there are people who a-- as you know, ths is a very complex issue, and the piece that i have to bring

. >> great, thank you chair ronen and committee members. i'm here today to ask for the committee's support for our universal eviction protection legislation that will bring thousands of units under the protection of the rent board and the eviction protections. despite some of the strongest tenant evictions in the country, they continue to contribute to the housing crisis. the rent ordinance, the city's set of laws that govern tenants rights. if your building was constructed before 1979, you have the benefit of rent control. if your building is newer, you don't. we have little data on what happens to tenants in these post 1979 buildings. in 2018, over 1,500 eviction notices were filed with the rent board, but this doesn't include with post 1979 buildings, because those landlords are not required to file anything with the city. 15% of renters reported they were threatened we -- with eviction. eviction is the primary cause of homelessness has doubled. it's harmful for our communities. now is the time to correct this inequity and treat all unit

. >> thank you chair ronen. i'm going to be brief to say that we obviously have a lot of work to do at the state level and here locally to protect tenants. just know that this board will be working very hard to institute any protections we can so tenants can stay in their homes. a lot of us are renters as well so we understand personally what that means. we will continue to fight for protections for tenants. i would love to be added as a cosponsor to this legislation as well. >> supervisor mar. >> thank you, i just wanted to thank supervisor haney and all the tenant and housing advocates for their work on this legislation. i am very happy to support it for all the important reasons that have been stated. i would just add that i think this is really important for the west side and for district 4 in particular, given that like my district has by far the worse commutative housing balance based on the planning department's housing report. the negative 225% housing balance in district 4 is a result of the lack of cre
