housing. if you're dealing in good faith and having every intention of reaching an agreement on this matter, you would make that 55% target that you're talking about, you would push that at 20. because when you're doing now, everybody's income that's below 55% is not included in the inclusionary rule. if you're cliing the inclusionary rule to not include the most vulnerable people, the people who are targeted by the inclusionary rule is another indication of how scanless you are. the inclusionary income was not made for high bracket people, it was made for low-income people. even your past demonstrations -- [bell ringing]. >> president cohen: thank you. next speaker is mr. paulson. i didn't realize you were here today. i would have recognized you. >> tim paulson, chairman of the terrific building and trades council. thank you, supervisor for putting what occurred over the course of the last weekend. we were in negotiations over the weekend to get a letter of intent. and just to let you know wh

and housing choice voucher programs. this was no small task, i might add. i know the city has been going through conversion as well. it is an enormous challenge, particularly when you continue to be running an operation. provided, all employees with extensive training and regular performance reviews based on goals established through a five-year strategic plan with a primary goal of being a proactive partner within the san francisco community. we achieved a standard performance status for housing choice voucher. in 2016. we converted 3,500 public housing units to the rental assistance demonstration program with project-based voucher and rad subsidies combined. it is a $2.2 billion public-private investment that community partners assisted us with. we increase the housing choice voucher utilization through collaborations with city partners. and the veterans administration as well. we became a housing choice voucher standard performer. in 2016, and maintained that status in 2017. after eight years of trouble designation an

housing delayed is housing denied. please do not deny affordable housing to the hundreds of low-income families who will desperately need that housing and will be severely and adverlease affected by -- adversely affected by this amendment. as elected supervisors, each of you must listen to the voice of the voters, your constituents, and vote no on this amendment. thank you. >> good afternoon, supervisors, peter cohen, community housing organizations. i guess that it's frustrating to be at this point after such a sort of kumbayah in the legislation that now we're faced with a situation of changing negotiated timelines and goalposts. but you already are. and i would offer just a few things as you decide what's appropriate. a use it or lose it provision should be progressive and it's intended to actually put the fire under the process and the onus should be on the project sponsor. so whatever you think is appropriate at this point it should be as aggressive as it can be for those projects that already have a deeply lowere

income housing and that is moderate rate housing. this is not the st. louising. that is the first thing. the second thing is that just to illustrate the dishonesty of some of the speakers, i'd like to point out a tiny detail. i work in the neighborhood. i go by the particular project that was refered tos as a site for man-killing cars by one individual earlier. that is a seismic retrofit business. a reason not to build housing but the city needs to do everything to increase affordability on this and every site. please consider this legislation carefully and please reject next item. >> good afternoon. dean preston with affordable affairs. let me start by saying i think there's some things in this legislation that are good and it's really a shame how this legislation was rolled out. i think that this obviously has been in the works for some time and to only give a copy to key community groups on a sunday before a monday hearing, i was pleased to hear supervisor brown indicate that this matter will be -- the discussion will continue nex

housing. i just want to correct the assertion on why we build a lot of middle working-class housing. if you are making at 55% of average medicine yan income you are a working person. for a single person you make $45,000 a year, that's many of our workers here in san francisco, many of our non-profit workers and actually our beginner teachers. if you are family of four, you are making about $65,000 a year. we reason we build the average income that is where we apply tax credits and they help build at forward able housing. that is why typically, we have built more at this level and we don't have enough housing because we don't provide as many credits to build middle-class housing. now, i am ok with building a greater number of middle income housing on the site. however, when we negotiate deals, the percentages is lower if the units are deeply subsidized. so for example, if build was to commit to building 100% supportive housing for the formally homeless, we would not require them to build 25% on

anything we can do to incentivize more housing, more housing types and more housing that hits different levels of affordability, we think is a wonderful thing. we respectfully request that you do not restrict any group housing within central soma area thank you. >> good evening, supervisors. i am representing kilroy realty corporation. regarding this proposal to require housing on the flower market side, i want to read some excerpts from a letter you received from the san francisco flower mart from the president and the chief operating operate -- chief operating officer. the flower mart is an industrial business. we are heavily reliant on vehicles to receive and deliver the products we sell in our wholesale marketplace. many of these vehicles are semi trucks and box trucks. our customers are ripened by our perishable products at 2:00 am. if housing were to be built, it would cause hardship for all of our vendors and wholesale customers to operate effectively i have additional copies of this letter. you have also received e-mails and messages from other flower vendors who were not able t

amendments different in terms of the scrutiny provided by the house of commons in the house of lords you can see the breath of knowledge and thinking and dedication to having a proper thorough discussion and there meaningful. outcome for what is been constitutional and public. a mess in the house of lords you have a very different kind of mentality obviously there are three whips of which are very strong conservative labor and liberal democrats but the crossbenchers and the independence the core as they wish and a lot are met i suspect some of them were. going up to the un saying well damn it we could appreciate your support and most crucial amendment coming up in the house of commons they come with the whip and they say you have to vote in the house of those that beg said please can you stay behind could you please supporters on this particular so i think the whole thing changes in the house of lords and people when they have their own conscience and belief and if they've been lobbied they tend to we tend to certainly vote with conscience and of course in the labor party because i w

housing, middle income housing and housing for the formerly homeless. the project includes retail, a community-serving childcare center with programs and supports for all children of all income levels and incorporates a robust services plan that tends to the needs of the seniors, families and formally homeless tenant populations that will be living there. the john stewart company and bridge housing are co developers on this project and are very excited about the deeper vulnerability levels at 88 broadway and 75 davids project. the 30% units will serve very low income residents. it will be one additional step towards meeting the deep and continuous needs to create affordable housing opportunities and will be reflected i have housing needs in the chinatown and broader community. the proposed project will pursue the city's goal of integrated a diverse population with the family and senior components of the project. a.m.i. levels will range from 30% a.m.i. to 120% a.m.i. with five 30% units. at the senior building, rents will range from 30% to 70% a.m.i. an

we need affordable housing. we like affordable housing. that means we have families and we have children and we have a community that sticks and stays and builds neighborhoods. so i think when we think about affordable housing, we need to dig deeper. that is where our crisis is in san francisco. and that is why a lot of people of color and other circumstances cannot live here is because affordability. they buy food. so i hope that you will consider digging a little bit deeper into affordable housing. >> thank you. next speaker. >> hi name is marie sorenson. i was actually here a year or two years ago when they were working on the hunters point project. the community came out and said that the clean up is making our kids sick. they're not doing a good enough job. they had figures from kids getting asthma and all the problems they were having. ever single one of the supervisors voted against them. to come to find out, the company that was hired to do the clean up was on suspension from the engineering society they were part of. look how hunt

with the new housing. in the revamped housing. with memphis tennessee. they built all the housing in west nashville. they go together by ford and you eight w. they can afford the housing. the same thing happen in culver city california. what can we do to stop people like oracle from coming in and asserting us we no longer had ethnic neighborhoods here. one of the things i just think we are not holding the feet to the fire on as a diversity of hiring. and community integration. i just think were asking a series of questions that get directed at housing and don't ask for a suite of other things for them to do. there is absolutely an obligation to hire from the committee. in an obligation to build in a way that has existed from them. there are people that are expert in this and know how to do it. it's worth thinking hard about how to hold that. they are very different and also it gets back to what i say in my book and i want to push this again my argument. city officials have to push the companies in the people have to push the city officials. that's how it

we are not feeling the housing. we are not putting people in the housing. the inclusionary component of this is very important. a lot of times you guys are saying you are handcuffed for getting more inclusionary and there's only so much you can do. the developers, the rules, this is a time where you can't be handcuffed. you need to have these rules and we need to keep the higher number of affordable percentages in place. some of these developments that were spoken about, some of them are bought and sold multiple times. they have been redesigned and been traded as speculation. this time we have stopped rewarding the speculation and get some real projects that actually bring community benefit to the neighborhood. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm with the mission economic development agency, i want to touch on something that -- what is the value of these units? unlike speaking of tools and unlike the federal reserve, we don't have a central buffering mechanism for this overheated economy and housing market. we

housing, housing, housing. i am not going to repeat everything that my -- a lot of my peers have said. i want to mention that with the special use district which i think some of us are open to, we can do more density and we can get maybe a larger store. there are options out there if you vote this down, which i believe this is a poor project that necessitates a better use for this site. there is indeed an option to work together with folks in the community and make a better project that works for everyone. please do take note of the notes and handout from the jug shop. this is a project one block away that pencils out apparently because the developer just bought it within the last year and is eager to develop it. and i believe this 1600 jackson site is a better site and is more feasible and has even more opportunity. and i look forward to working with either the existing developer, somebody who purchases the property, to build a development that meets the needs of everyone in the neighborhood and fights the hou

was no housing before. and i also want to point out that these important meetings happen during work hour where is many working families can't come. i've had the opportunity to come today and i want to come to more meetings. so, thank you for hearing us out and we need more housing. thank you. >> thank you. tamika. and your mother. hi. and then there will be katherine campbell and reverend brown. and then john men doe sa. >> good afternoon, supervisors. blessed to be here. i am here highly supporting supervisor brown. born and raised here in san francisco. fillmore, to be exact. brought mom who can definitely attest to that. 73 years of her life in the fillmore area. and here both i work and live and so i can definitely attest to what was just said in terms of not even knowing if we would be able to continue to live where we currently stay. and every morning we both actually thank each other because we live together and my mom is always telling me how thankful she is that she has me and we're able to live t

we all recognize that housing production doesn't speak to all the cities' housing needs. so this work that andy will present to you shortly is really, i'm looking at that part of the city that is being effected by the growth and the demand for new housing. but it's not directly receiving that growth. it really grew out of the work we did in map 2020. it's taking that work and seeing how that work can kind of look city wide and create a menu of activities that can address stabilization city wide. most city nights ar neighborhooe facing these issues. for those that are not yet facing the most serious anti displacement issues, that we can get ahead of it. and try to put some displacement measures, anti-displacement measures in place before it effects them more seriously. so, it really does -- broad analysis responds to some of the social yo economic and the mission in the tenderloin and we're trying to get ahead of that as well. i started to address that in a memo a year ago to the board. we're trying to follow-up on that work as well. you will see that, what we're doing is

he wrote on housing. gropius he was a main figure in the german association of craftsman and the architectural collective. but he also realized his own ideas here. because it's what. can you give me an example. it was a job to create housing for the masses so the idea was to build affordable worker homes so they created standardized. on hot potato it was a master at using small variation in extravagant colors to break up any monotony and. no to me old comes with us. modern architecture help chamberlain as we know it today if you want to see another original bauhaus construction you should consider a trip to neighboring clandon book and are now about an hour's drive from here in the bowels second director one is my undesigned a trade union school alongside other piles buildings environment and death out it's considered a unesco world heritage site. in the late one nine hundred twenty s. on a smile the second about house director and his colleague constant value set out to design a trade union school that w

and social housing the people who need to rent, affordable houses the people who need to buy, that isiggest aspiration most british families. and not undermining the housing market, because it would... you say not enough homes have been built under both labour and conservative governments, so do you think the conservative party should take its share of the blame then for the fact that the housing stock in this country is just not enough? that the housing stock in this country isjust not enough? all parties need to take their share of the blame. central government for its own reasons has always stood in the way but the aspirations that local councils have to deliver more homes. i understand why they have done that, we have been concerned about the weight impacts on the national debt but it has always been clear we need to prioritise homes for people who are in need of those homes. the only time we've ever been able to deliver the number of homes we able to deliver the number of homes we need is when councils are built 40% them. this is a good decision by conservative prime minister tha

in those chefs, they were just like i described how i was at the white house pike -- house. if you want to stay here, this is what you need to do. but just to give you a couple of lines on what is going on in the food business. have you noticed all of these terms that they use, that most of the chefs don't even know what they mean. they especially use french terms, and they don't know what they mean, they know nothing about french, they just want to impress you. cuisine coach were -- coutoure, , you know what that is? of that has to do with close . >> then they have a word that is a slaughterhouse. the tuna cassoulet which is just a tuna casserole. i'm sure you watch the turkeys on tv that want to impress you. in america, there is a shortage of cheese, think that would be a revolution like you've ever -- like you've never seen. have you seen those guys that cook on tv, there is cheesy and absolutely every dish by the sun. they used to be worried about cholesterol, no more, cholesterol is good for you. eggs. don't eat eggs, you're going to die. now eggs are fabulous for you.

the current house is 9 feet taller than the house downhill. that house is about 15 feet in height. 15 and almost 1.6. that is a beautiful golden ratio. that is why it look boufl. and look at the facade of the new house. they really have the unified architecture features. everything so far, although they are tallest in the neighborhood, but everything looks beautiful and harmonious. now look at the left-hand side. i can only say that the proportion is accurate to whatever the blueprint. they will be 25 feet smaller than the next house. 25 feet up there. and when we talk about setback, this unit illustration also already taken into account all the setback. 14 on the front. 5 on the side and the back. you cannot see the back of the house. there is actually the back even further than the third floor. you can see this is looming over the neighboring house in a very aggressive and hostile way. so this whole against residential design guidelines and the visual character you can see this is the google on the right-hand side. this is google street map.

housing. i want to acknowledge public works, public utilities commission, infrastructure and controller office for also being in attendance to answer questions. we will start with ms. campbell, the person of the civil grand jury. we appreciate you taking up this very important issue, our housing crisis here and that role that modular housing could play in addressing this crisis. >> thank you. yes, i'm lori campbell, longtime resident and floor person of the 2017-18 san francisco civil grand jury. i'd like to acknowledge some of the other jurors here with me today. just raise your hand for a minute. i'd also like to acknowledge the late mayor ed lee who sadly passed during our tenure. he took time to share with us the issues he saw facing the city of san francisco and we greatly appreciate that. jury members appreciated the opportunity to learn about san francisco government and to pursue areas of interest to our community in hopes of identifying ways to improve the efficiency and the effective

workforce housing or middle class housing, any of that housing at all is through these development deals. so having our city leave any money on the table is a big deal right now. we have to strike this right now, and we have to push, and push where the line where the product remains feasible. i just want to echo -- i can't say it morale quently than supervisor peskin, but i want to echo those comments that we really need to look to oewd when you're getting involved in these individual projects, so help us get there. you're supposed to be the department with that expertise on how far can we get to that line before the project becomes infeasible. i can't bring that enough. i also want to mention that supervisor cohen's, you know, impetus for originally veering from section 415 and accepting a lower rate of the fee out money for off-site units was for her desire to be able to have some funds to help residents around the developments when they're in danger of being displaced. we know that pressure is going to become greater as we look at what's happening in the mission when these luxury deve

i'm certainly not against housing, i'm prohousing, proaffordable housing. thank you. >> president cohen: next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is jackie flynn. i'm the executive director. a. philip randolph institute san francisco, and i'm accompanied by kurt grimes as well as oaf tupola who are also employees but also bayview residents. i'm here in support of the india basin mixed use project, the largely neglected in indian basin is desperately in need of restoration. it's important that we find opportunities to retain bayview-hunters point culture as our city inevitably grows. we are all aware of historic challenges in our community to provide broad outreach. i'm sure you've heard residents across the city express concern for not being able to be part of the project. for this project we were able to engage community leaders and organizations approximate participate. not just for this project, but remember, the ongoing projects that impact residents were ones that became more aware of and were empowered to participate as a result. more of

next door typical power house housing was built for the professors or masters as they were called their uniform exterior belies the varied interiors it ranges from bright and colorful to white minimalism depending on what the inhabitant preferred. even the furnishings were created by bauhaus designers. does so commissioned bauhaus architect. to draw up plans for the city's new unemployment agency. in one thousand nine hundred twenty eight he was succeeded by harness my own as bauhaus director he oversaw the construction of death sounds five houses with balcony access for low income residents people's needs over luxury mansions but in one thousand nine hundred thirty two the nazis drove the bow house out of debt sell its last director mis found a hole oversaw the moved to berlin there it was shut down by the nazis again bellhousing germany was gone but not forgotten. people had to wait until after world war two to see former bauhaus architects bring their ideas back to germany not far from the famous bottom up lots you'll find another about house related construction sites the no you're

through the white house. and so mrs. bush had made sure that any of the resident's staff that were still working in the white house that had been there in the johnson time were there to greet mrs. johnson at the diplomatic reception room door when she stepped in. and in addition, one of the butlers that had worked for the johnsons, mr. german, was now a part-time elevator operator, operated the president's elevator in the white house, just a few days a week, mrs. bush made sure that he was there and that he was the one that greeted mrs. johnson when the door was opened of the car for her to get out. and the way that mrs. johnson reached up in recognition to embrace mr. german and how he embraced her, is really would just make you weep. but would also, the two last things that i'll just say about mrs. johnson's visit, her last visit to the white house, is, mrs. bush wheeled her into the vermeil room on the ground floor, which had just been repainted under one of the restoration projects that mrs. bush did, tha

federal agency and specific trump appointees, and the white house itself and this white house is going to find itself playing permanent defense for the rest of the trump presidency. >> the stakes could be as large as whether mueller can continue. this president may feel empowered to move filly, as we know he wants to do, to either fire bob mueller or fire jeff sessions or fire rod rosenstein, or find some way to shut this investigation down. >> mueller is not going to remove the predent of the united states from office. he doesn't have that power, and i'm sure he doesn't have that ambition. the way that the president could be removed, if that's the goal, is through impeachment and conviction by the senate or through elections. and both of those involve heavy doses of the involvement of the american people, either through their representatives in congress, or through elections. and that's why, at the end of the day, it's the amican people who are going to decide trump's fate. and th's why so much is at stake in the 2018, and especially the 2020 elections. >> a pension is a promise! >> t

the white house. and, i just felt like, you know, as a reporter, i needed to find out everything i could find out, and pass it on to the american people. and, that is the rule i tried to follow. >> as a print reporter, with different deadlines, then we are accustomed to thinking about today, right, in the world, where to social media and cable television and talk radio all on all the time. do you see that this coverage has changed dramatically, as the velocity of information has increased? >> i think it is interesting the fact that you started off with a lapdog, washed all, attached dog division, that is a good way to think of this, because, i think we have moved from watchdog to attack dog mostly, now. and part of that, frankly, is that president trump has put us in the position of being the enemy of the american public, as he calls it, fake media as he says. and i know we don't want to draw on president trump, so actually last night i did a little due diligence and look at our history, i wrote a boo

housing. we know we're not going to be breaking ground on this in the next six months or so. we're going to continue to negotiate in good faith. i want to thank building for becoming partners with us at two minutes to 1:30 today. >> president cohen: thank you for your diligences. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is michael ibanez. [inaudible] >> i'm strongly opposing the change of zoning which is happening in 700 innes avenue block, and i'm honestly surprised with the discussions which i hear, because today, we're here for what's called land use and transportation committee. i don't think, you know, we discuss money or we discuss housing, or whatever. we need to discuss land use, and this land cannot be used for housing. and you're supposed to respect the zoning which happened before. this was light industrial which you want to convert to heavy residential, which some people supposed to think about this. what does it mean, light industrial? why? these people which created this landfill,

we also work with different federal grants, housing grants. that would be through our state housing and finance development corporation. we work with them trying to make sure there is enough funding that is pipelined that comes to the state. then we distribute that to our counties, who also work with hud and federal agencies to ensure they can do their part in achieving affordable housing goals. host: you brought homeless into this. how often does the lack of affordable housing lead to homelessness, and help -- and how big of a problem of that -- of a problem is that in hawaii? caller: we had a serious homeless problem. they were camping out in the gypsys, sort of like homelessness. when the police came in, they just moved to another public site. we have put emphasis on transitional shelters. , alsoty club of honolulu looking for lowrise apartments purchasing them and making them into transitional shelters and apartments for the homeless. of work ine a lot the philanthropy world. philanthropists in hawaii took it upon themselves. he saw vacant

we have to build housing and no we're not building housing fast enough. we also need places for people to go because clearly, sleeping on the streets is not a humane situation right now here in our city. part of moving forward with providing more shelter beds also means making sure that we have more mental health stabilization beds for people as we move them through this system for the purposes of trying to get them conserved so they can live healthy and productive lives. this is not just trying to -- we're not just trying to force someone into a situation. this is about helping people get healthy and stabilized. we all know what is happening here on our streets is unacceptable. currently, we're using our hospitals and our jails to cycle people with mental illness in and out of the hospitals, in and out of the jail systems and they are not getting healthy. they are not getting better. we need new solutions. we need bold leadership to move forward with the kinds of solutions that are going to be effective and deliver what we need. our next steps are to pas
