housing housing hole that we are not out yet. so the acute need to increase affordable housing production particularly for working class folks couldn't be greater. it's our organization, our coalition's position, that publicly owned sites should be used for affordable housing when they have reached their point of utility for whatever other public use, parking lots or older buildings, it's a very precious resource. we should use it smartly for the kind of affordable housing that we cannot get through any other means. there's another more pragmatic reason for that financially, we can leverage as you heard from staff's presentation, two or three dollars for every dollar we invest. that is why for those few publicly owned sites we bottom line they should be used for public housing, whether seniors or transitional or youth because we get the greatest bang for our buck and serve the greatest need. the city has been talking about balboa reservoir as an opportunity to do a mix of housing because you literally have a large area. as you he

the house has tried. the senate has refused to act until finally this morning, the senate took up a clean funding bill for homeland and passed it. and so here's where we are. the house has passed a bill. the senate now has passed a bill finally. so what do you normally do? what are the procedures of the congress when both bodies pass a bill that is different from each other? you go to conference. we've done that. that's the recommended way. that's what is in the constitution. and so the conference is necessary. but that's going to take some time. so we need some time to allow the conference to go to work and conclude this problem and work out the differences. thus, we need this temporary funding bill for the department to keep the security of the nation until tact through the department of homeland security while we work out the funding, permanent funding for the department for the balance of the year. that's where we are. it's fairly simple. i don't know how to do it. maybe they have a better idea to rec

she also housed the truck overnight in the anderson carriage house. and isabel took her sense of responsibility further than most of the washington society did. she left for europe and spent months on the front lines servicing the american red cross, working hospitals in both belgium and france on the fronts. she was later awarded the french courtier, the royal belgium medal of the red cross and the american red cross canteen medal. it was funny, because i had read "presidents and pies," and every once in a while, she'll mention the front or on the front, but never a description of any of the horrible experiences and sights she must have seen there, so i think for the folks, she just wanted to focus on pleasant life in washington. after the war, the andersons were barely in washington, hardly at all. they rented the house out to foreign dignitaries, ambassadors and their staff, lars died in 1937, and isabel having no use for this wonderful house according to lars's wishes, donated it to the society of cincinnati. and isabel died in 1948 at the age of

but instead he has appraised the house that he is replacing this house with. he erroneously appraised the site works of the very house that he's replacing it with, these are not valid subjects for 317, since the replacement house is not the house that is applying to be demolished, it is therefore not exempted from anything under section 317, it's not applying to be demolished, he's not demolishing the new house it was the house that was demolished that needed to be appraised so his exempting from 317 was based on faulty thinking. this code is to preserve existing [inaudible] that only house applying for demolition in this case is the original house and while it was standing it was affordable housing at 100 thousand dollars, so it should not have been torn down and it should have done a mand doir discretionary review, which it didn't get. >> mr. nakita? >> good evening, president lazarus, i'm craig nakitas for permanent holders mel murphy you read about this project in your case briefs and some of you may remember when it was brought to this board over two year

we will take a look back at some of what the house -- what happened on the house floor earlier today. yield myself what time i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. ms. roybal-allard: madam speaker my motion would instruct the conferees to recede to the senate position which is the responsible position of providing a full-year funding for the homeland security department. secretary johnson has warned over and over again that the republican leadership's refusal to allow a vote on a clean, bipartisan funding bill such as the one sent to this house by the republican-led senate is threatening the national security of our country. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman will suspend. please take your conversations off the floor. the gentlewoman from california deserves to be heard. the gentlewoman will continue. ms. roybal-allard: without a full year of bills, the secretary tells us he is unable to move forward on key homeland security priorities, including new investments in border securities technology more aggressive i.c.e. investigations related to transnational cri

goes to housing if you're life-threatening to spend a lot of income on housing and share housing with a lot of people that's how it's working i don't think it's what people want to see in the city that's why affordable housing is so urgent in the city. >> the request about poverty in the city are we setting up such a invading poster levels of poverty is is higher. >> i believe the recited rate a higher but the distinction of poverty didn't fit our city we have another problem a number of people and it's hard to kind of get the demographics but people that are lower income to move out of the city it's reasonable to look at the data and conclude that people come to san francisco when they're very poor work here for a few years and move out it tend to be the people that move out tend to be lower income than the people that move in thank you. >> commissioner dooley. >> i wanted to go back to the housing situation with the middle-class housing in terms of it's hard i know in north beach my area for people to find employees that don't want to commute i have seen all the traditional housing

chaos at the house, shut down nears. i don't think they have ever turned their front headline to red. stunner, house gop shuts down own bill. the republicans thought they had a plan they thought they had this under control. on the senate side they got this done. they passed a bill to keep homeland security open and funded through september. they did it in the senate. in the house, they decided they didn't want to fund it through september. so yeah we could still be in this situation, back to shut down again three weeks from now, but at least there would not be a shut down tonight. house republicans decided they wanted to just fund homeland security for three weeks. the house republicans called a recess to give themselves time to round up the votes. they delayed the vote this afternoon to make sure they have the votes. they voiced optimism that they would be able to pass their big idea. their bill their extension. the new wip in the republican house, and the great appeal of steve scalease. he was supposed to be able to ha

is that alongside and mixed in with market rate housing and affordable housing. thank you very much. >> any other speakers during public comment? please come forward. seeing none public comment is closed. is the executive director -- could you explain just briefly for the public what seawall lot 322 is. >> seawall 322-1 is a lot that is across the embarcadero from the water side. it was once upon a time subsequently there was a proposal to build a hotel on it that has failed and the port has offered the seawall lot 322-1 as an affordable housing site as part of the overall need of the city but because it is a use that makes good sense within the existing neighborhood. did you want me to say something different? is that what you had in mind? >> yes thank you. >> you can phrase it more eloquently than i might. >> i doubt that. >> but i do want the public to know this is something the port cares deeply about and the port wants to be an active participant in the city in terms of creating more affordable housing in the city as the need has certainly been eloquently ex

that a bill starts in one house, goes to another house, the other house disagrees, it comes back to the other house if the other house wants to discuss it, we go to conference and discuss it this house took an important position back in january. to fund the department of homeland security and we added some riders. now, we need to go to conference so that our position, the house's position can be fully discussed by the conferees for both houses. and during that discussion, we don't know what the outcome will be, but that discussion could lead to something that could get us a solution. and that's what the people of america want us to try to do, is get to a solution. so far, what we tried hasn't worked. now i wish the senate has acted earlier. i wish we could have got then back in time enough for us not to have to go through some of the gyrations we are doing now but we are where we are. and to go to conference and to give whoever is appointed as house conferees the opportunity to work with whoever is appointed from the senate as their conferees to try to arrive at something like a consens

but it was only a sweep in the white house. congressionally they did fairly decently in 2012 and then in 2014 it was a republican blowout. so if you look at it, it is not so much democrat republican but a view of politics that i held for a long time and i think it really years and reflects the values that i share in the book which is that for the practitioners of politics everything that is horizontal, democrat republican for the people that actually decide the election and don't live every day on politics elections are vertical. and the way that they vote is not left or right but they vote up or down and they ask if this person is going to take us up or will this person take us down. will he make things better or will he make things worse. >> i hope that 2016 is a great year for republicans and i hope that in a couple of months you let me know what you decide. >> i will do so. >> thank you so much governor, it's great to talk to you. >> tomorrow on c-span2, the washington institute for near east policy host a discussion about

of key affordable housing sites, including the potential affordable housing site at the port and an update on the proposed affordable housing development on seawall lot 322-1 at the corner of broadway and front. the housing office is continuously looking for strategies to meet the affordable housing need of the city. i hope that the mayor's office of housing presentation will elaborate on these strategies and the collaborative effort in implementing these strategies. there is a director of housing development and sophie aword policy of the mayor's office of housing are here to make the majority of the presentation. i will be handing over the presentation to them. in the end, i will come back to wrap up on the presentation. so at this point i'm going to turn it over to sophie to start her presentation. >> good afternoon, president katz and commissioners, i am sophie hayward from the mayor's office of housing. thank you for inviting us to talk with you about the affordable housing pipeline. i am joined by teresa yonger who you know as director of development for mcd i will begin today

but the housing trust fund was not created by fhfa. housing trust fund was created by congress. and the decision to fund it or not fund it is based on statutory criteria. >> but most of us look at this and think that -- so look at freddie being leveraged 156-1 fannie leveraged at 134-1, and think that the conditions are not right. because, you know the requirement to suspend the allocation of capital of the housing trust fund is -- shouldn't be justified under the circumstances with this type of leverage -- of these institutions. >> that's not one of the statutory criteria that congress set for evaluating whether to fund the housing trust fund or not fund the housing trust fund. >> is this an odd circumstance? you're outspoken about subprime lending in the private sector leading up to the crisis. i heard you in debates here. i heard you on tv at home that you said that these really high ltv loans were problematic, that this was deeply concerning especially for those that didn't have savings that a small fluctuation of the marketplace could cause problems. do you have that simila

not promote better housing in the low income area or not promote housing integration? you look at what is causing the bad effect, but what is the bad effect? >> the government may say in the first case, this is our justification, and that may hold up. the government may say in the second case, that is our justification, and that may hold up. >> do you think a private developer would ever be found guilty of disparate impact because he owns a piece of property in an affluent neighborhood? >> no, certainly not. >> disparate impact would be if he fails to sell, or make available to people of all races, let's say, the units in that property, correct? >> there's got to be a specific practice. that's just the first thing that counts. >> exactly. >> i thought the question was it is not the developer, it is the department of housing and community affairs. not the developer -- >> this may not be a good disparate impact claim, mr. chief justice, but the cases in the heartland are pretty straightforward. >> you are saying that in each case that the chief justice puts, there is ini

go in the house. the son comes out, gets in the car with her and they get the car away from the home. that they thought he was following them to the home, they wanted to get the car away from the home. next thing you know they see the car, at that time the perp shoots at them they do not return fire even though her son has a gun. they get scared. they come back to the home and that's when the perp pulls up behind them and shoots the mother. that's what he just told me. obviously he had a bead on who the shooter may be you just heard the neighbor say the meyers family has been there, knocking on the door wanting to talk to the people inside. >> right. and that's the question. if he also just went over or tried going over we watched him as this whole thing was playing out trying to go over to this home where the standoff was happening. obviously in a lot of neighborhoods in this country you don't always know who your neighbors are if you live a block away or a street away. when you hear the woman who wa

you only get fund to produce affordable housing is through market rate housing so that's what we have to build as we build more housing 90 in san francisco we have to look at the numbers i agree with mr. cowen as you have a higher percentage of market rate you housing let's looking at the income level and rise our strategies so the numbers reflect the population in san francisco we're not building for something in the past and then the other thing i was going to comment on the section 6.13 and 4 on homelessness i think those policies make sense i want to make sure we avoid policies that will furtheres bat the problem by having more people that are homeless coming to san francisco we built tons of new homeless housing but the numbers of homeless still remains so there are more coming here part of the problem that is the most expensive place you could possibly live and if you have limited means or ways to acquire income it is the harder place to have enough to afford housing that's one of the challenges to help we don't want to make the situation worse so those are any main comments the
