rentals. this is up to you. every time you take away a unit, you take away housing. it is a humpty dumpty effect, and rental housing is being lost to throughout the city. i want you to be well aware that this happened. i will read it to you what was said during the first speech -- i have been very concerned about this artificial grass. there's no drainage. if anybody is sick or has an infection, they get cut, another person passes afterwards with a cut and lands on but space, there's no place to go but inside that wound. and it is not being drained. you could double that she should consider what the long traffic -- ramifications are. -- you should consider what the long-term rabbit -- ramifications are. [bell rings] you can go to the sacred home trust. they have wonderful ways of converting churches to housing. it is one of the finest meetings i ever went to in salt lake city, and it is on the web now. you should see some of the conversions, and also look at holy cross in our city. [bell rings] thank you. commissioner fong: for those of you standing around the door, t

an important thing to note, which i noted in the middle but did not clarify -- rental units often in the city -- it totally depends, but oftentimes, rental units provided can meet our modern income needs, but because we do not have tracking of those trends, we cannot be sure they will stay this way. commissioner wu: i just wanted to flag the lightly -- likely, that percentage will always be low. and then the other question i wanted to ask is whether or not -- in six months or a year, i assume we will continually refine it, but there may be a desire to city and it's entitled in the last year, but i think we are not sure yet because we have not really used it as a tool. >> i think that is a perfectly appropriate thing. one other thing i might mention is that what we are looking at now is the allocation from 2007 through 2014. we will be coming forward with a new allocation sometime within the next year, and i will be giving you more information in the iowa your packets as we move forward. commissioner wu: ok, thank you. commissioner miguel: i think i remember the article you were talki

it left the town woefully inadequate in its number of rental units. in their calculation, they only take the owner occupied units and they extrapolate from that what they consider the number of rental units to be in that same track. well, you can't really base a calculation of how many rental units there are based on how many owner occupied dwellings they are, and to tell you how much they missed it, they calculated that there were no rental units destroyed which is obviously a tremendous miscalculation. so we've offered an amendment today which essentially will say that you have to consider and your survey must include both owner occupied units and rental units and that you must calculate both of them, not simply the owner occupied units. h.u.d.'s model in short needs to be changed. we believe our authorizing committee will correct this in future cases, but there's an urgent need to replace rental housing that was last in last year's tornadoes throughout the nation, and our amendment simply creates a mechanism to do so and directs h.u.d. to develop a

there is no intention of using the second unit as a rental if the second means of egress is through the bedroom of the adopted unit. my question is, where is it going to be? should there be special restrictions that that second unit must be used as a rental unit, and i do not want to have this be a precedent for the rest of the city. this is something that has bubbled my mind. with deep regret, i am making this speech. and this also has bothered me because the second unit is being expanded outside of the existing square footage which goes against the master plan, against the demolition replacement plan as written. this down the line is going to cause future lawsuits for this department. someone else is going to probably take it to the hilt. i want you to be well aware that affordable housing is being demolished, there does not look to be a fair replacement apartment, a legitimate one. the fact that there is no means of egress in the second unit in the first unit and there must be some work if there is a second means of egress applied when it finally hits. it should be under the special

basically, conversion of rental units will be prohibited for six months with further study going on to be able to revisit this before the end of the six months. i think it is unwise to leave the head of this. i have been a proponent of conditional use because we can address those issues where it is appropriate to allow student housing from some residential housing. i will be voting against this and i don't think the makers of the motion will accept a friendly amendment to allow that to be limited only to studying the six-month period without going into details suns of theetting. -- of the sunsetting. and supervisor kim could continue with her home pursuit of what she is trying to do. >> the supervisor can continue to do whatever she wants, it doesn't matter what we do. >> this is the second major piece of land use legislation that the housing action coalition brought forward. when they started with the first of the inclusion very pieces of legislation and done through them, it was a known fact and stated that within two years, there would be changes. this was a known fact. the supervis

do it properly, to hire a contractor within 30 days, or to vacate the unit, to not use them as rental unitsecause then nobody will be in a minute. we are deciding that they need to be evicted. it weighs heavily to put someone in a hazard. i also take it seriously that we are essentially ordering the landlord to at not rent this is your net to someone who is occupying it. i just want to clarify that. commissioner walker: i have sympathy for the tenant that was put in in march or april of this year while the notice of violations were active. and many others probably. at some point we have to deal with the help safety issues. i have the same complex around getting rid of units. but i have a bigger conflict with the potential for people being injured, because there is no compliance with the code. it is a hard situation. >> if she were to hire a contractor to go in and do minor investigation as to what may be back there, they might be able to give us assurances that we do not have in the hazard, but because we have never gotten to that point with this property owner understanding what she needs
