we are embarking on sunnydale and potrero simkin lead by 2018, will have rehabilitated over 3500 units of public housing to the rental assistance demonstration program. we are proposing bond funds to accelerate potrero and sunnydale so that the tenant living there now to not have to continue to face the habitability problems they have over the long term. we are also proposing using the bond for low income housing. that is housing that typically, reaches households up to 60% and 80% of area median income to weave a twofold strategy. that is to build new affordable housing, leveraging low income housing tax credits, which is the most -- the greatest level of housing resources that available in the country. also, to preserve affordable housing through the acquisition and relocation of existing rent-controlled units, so we can not only stop displacement through ellis and no-fault evictions, but also to stop the loss of affordable housing to vacancy control. finally, we middle income housing. this is a category of housing that does not have the benefit of leverage federal or state funds. it
