i think i'm in spot but i think the 10 years is reasonable especially the ellis act has limits. i think that 10 years is good it's a disincentive we're approving a lot of new units we're trying to retain the rent control units we have we're building and approving. or non-rent control so i think it's the same side we should be preserving rent control and this helps do that. i'm supportive of the 10 years were i agree with the 10 years i think i would be supportive of having that timeline start now. as the public know about it, it's out in the pun domain. i'm not an expert on the retina ordinance but it is o m u the only no fault eviction besides f i? >> i don't know if anybody is an expert. >> deputy city attorney. i think the two no fault evictions are owner move in there's a list i'm entirely sure but that's the most common one >> i know there are limitation one unit per building i have it's a 5 unit building. so the supervisor may want to look at the different rules for o m i evictions where your take a look the entire building off the market but not knowing enough about the r

they both say the ellis act is getting abused. new property owners will renovate the building and then sell to multiple owners to provide a co-op or a tenancy in common. >> they have a side agreement that's not recorded with the deed that allows each owner to use one of the units exclusively. >> the other option is a buyout, usually under the threat of alis act eviction, a property owner will pay the tenant to leave. crow calls it a game of chicken. >> because if we can get to a point where we really think it's a bluff i'm going to advise them not to do a buyout. >> there is an uptick because we have a housing shortage. >> she works with a non-profit. >> you can't really blame families for wanting to cash out on long-term investments. >> she says the ellis act is the only tool available for the people she works with to leave the rental business. >> inclusionary renting is -- the ellis act is the only escape valve that these owners have from overrestricted real estate markets. >> but those fighting to keep people in their homes say

ellis act would come into play. the other situation is the pes skin ordinance and that has a different trigger date. that doesn't look at the current owner. it looks at the building history. if you as the current owner or prior owner it affects the building. that is the property owner serving the tenant with the eviction notice, that trigger dates in may 1, 2005. and those again could be ellis act evictions or other kinds of evictions. so those items are considered and that's part of the information that is forwarded to the department of public works to the rent board. >> thank you. i had a question. if it's a case, what date in 2004 was it? >> november 16, 2004. >> and through pass skin's legislation in 2005. why do we look at eviction history from 2000 on wards? >> jonelle al ner from the city attorneys office. i don't remember now from those years that those pieces of legislation were created but i think out of an abundance of caution wanted a longer history as it pertained to a particular building to catch poten

hayward not all east e ellis acts are reported. so when somebody points out that a rent control is lost those evictions that occur because somebody gets a buy out which is still evictions not reported so a number of evictions is significantly higher than what is on the meter of trying to count. the "x" did he see of people in rent control and thus affordable unit is far, far larger than any number can indicate. i live in a neighborhood surrounded by what used to be rental apartment. to what degree they were affordable i can't tell but for years i've talked with supervisor chu about those apartments are all empty. there's somebody waiting for something in order to occupy them with a different form of renters or whatever. it's sad to see there's a large housing stock unoccupied at this point held back because of the things wore discussing here today >> understood. >> i'm supportive as well. i wanted to ask supervisor avalos staff why are we getting the proposal now without the language why not wait for the language? i believe we had

it it was date after the ellis act. this was in november of 2004. it was before the date that that legislation affected it. >> okay. >> and then one other follow up to also supervisor kim's question and to mayor's office in housing. are there programs that could assist rather than granting a fee deferral in this circumstance for you to help this particular appellant with the $8,000 circumstance that she has either with a loan or some sort of dispensation with your office with the prop c funds that you have and programs that could assist her here rather than what i think that many are concerned about that undermining this legislation? >> mr. supervisor, the mayor's office of housing currently doesn't have a program that provides this assistance. in terms of our single family programs we have provided loans for initial first time home buyers. we have provided rehab loans for low income residents. we don't have a current program to provide the payment of fees due to the city at this point. this is a voluntary fee. there is a benefit being conferred to
