i want to say that we strongly support the testimony and eloquent ideas you heard from olson lee and dennis phyllis ips. they speak the truth. we want to see more affordability where we say the common ground is where is the money. no one a disagrees that we need it but where is the funding coming from. the shortcoming i see from the housing balance measure is it an appears to us on a premise that if we in accrues -- increase the restrictions on housing we increase the subsidized housing. it doesn't make sense how that works. instead a better outcome to sit down and get the stakeholders and sit down and look at ways to raise more money to subsidize the housing. you saw some slides and i don't know if you noticed the production level of affordable housing. in 1 year, the past many years that did exceed 300 units in a year. do you understand what a dread fully inadequate number it is relative to the challenges we are facing. we are not talking about anything here that is talking about what is going to significantly change this. we need inclusionary things. there are other things we need

. >> supervisors, olson lee, director of mayor's office of housing. as director updike mentioned we're very early in the process, and the level of affordability specified in these agreements are related to the use of taxes and bonds for the financing of this development. so, these units will be affordable. at no greater than 50% of median income. so, they're going to be relatively affordable. and i presume that the workers of good will would be income eligible for those, those particular units. one of the questions is, you know, are they, in fact, low enough to actually serve those employees. but the base obligation for any new multi-family development based upon prop c is 12%. and, so, this is an increase in that air of affordability by 8 percentage points. so, there are going to be over 130 units of affordable housing here at 50% of income for which the mayor's office of housing community development is not subsidizing it. and we will actually be the other party responsible for issuing the bonds and monitoring the ongoing affordability and ensuring

i feel really fortunate to be able to work with olson lee and buckly who come from the affordable housing wormd and have done so much with mayor lee to build affordable housing and i believe that our legislation is really part of that package. it doesn't fight that and it's really another tool that we can have in the handbook to continue the pathway that we are on and the vision we would all like to see. i think we are lucky to have a smart and vigorous and debate and discussions so we can have more. i think we should appreciate that despite the fact that we have some dueling concepts for how that happens. thank you chair yee for being here. i know your family is waiting for you. >> i want to thank everybody for being here. it's true and i also believe that there is nobody in this room that would really not fight for affordable housing. it's one of these things where can we get to a couple -- commitmently -- come complimentary type of solutions. i'm hoping as we move into future as we are talking about this time around or next year or the year after that we continue to have this dialogue
