jumping to s.b. 50, it's just a redo of s.b. 827. i think commissioner richards hit the nail on the head when he says he read the same report. no effect on housing supply when you upzone, no price increases. if you look at last year's rina figures, you'll see that 108% of the housing that was built was market rate and 19% was affordable housing. and an interest side effect of all this building up is contrary to popular belief, upzoning actually near transportation has a great increase in greenhouse gas emissions as opposed to diminishing them, which you can think with other trains and people taking all this transportation would decrease, but it does not. i think s.b. 50 is a joke, and that we've seen it before. it's also a red herring in that it is simply a bunch of place marker bills, and it is s.b. 50 that we are supposed to be excited about while other bills and legislation from the state will slide by without any tension at all from this commission or the citizens. last -- please look at the lack of f.a.r. requirements in the 850

in july of 2015, ocii amended its s.b. policy to clarify joint ventures and associations to intensefy small business development. under ocii's policy. sma since july 2015, 36% of s.b. dollars or 110 million were credited to j.b.s and associations. the primary beneficiaries of this program have been african americans, $36.6 million and non-americans, at $36.9 million. in terms of outreach, staff continues to conduct out reach on -- to local small businesses through community networking as well as various publications and media outlets, including ocii's website and san francisco contract construction website. meanwhile, staff continues dialogue with owners of and small businesses. moving onto workforce, ociis workforce practice is aggressive and it's unique in that it establishes a local hiring goal of 50% with first consideration for project area residents. it requires contractors to adhere to state prevailing wage requirements even on projects entirely funded with private dollars. we monitor compliance through our web base

s.b. 1 is everybody. the only people who are exempted are those people who work for companies that have a similar benefit. and then they are exempted. but the bottom line for the people of hampton and the people of the sea coast and the people of new hampshire is that this is the financial stability that keeps you able to take care of your family, and able to keep your job. and guess what, that's what probably the most crit -- that's probably the most critical component in our work force. right? if people can't show up to work or they show up to work sick or they show up to work stressed out because their child is sick or their parent is in a hospital and they can't be there, that has a huge impact on work force and wellness. so, this is probably the medicaid expansion of this session. this is the single most critical bill that we will be working on and i'm so excited that we're talking about it today. senator brown, i went to northwestern. so i don't know. that's another big ten school. [laughter] i know

we have s.b. 50 and s.b. 4 in the making. they're different efforts to identify how can housing opportunities be used strategically, recognized throughout our neighborhoods? more recently governor newsom's proposed budget, it brings some of the substantial resources, $2 billion. the main component, the increase in credit for low-income housing, and other efforts to support homelessness -- to support the solution to homeless challenges and middle-income housing. there are also strong incentives to support the communities that have the capacity but have not so far been able to contribute towards the housing solution. this is the picture of s.b. 50 which recognizes some of the elements of this type of legislation, this type of strategy. so it is about having higher -- higher capacity next to transit infrastructure, addressing the housing neighborhoods where we can accommodate future resident does, and this can happen only -- residents, and this can happen only if we engage

i think this body should weigh in and advise the board of supervisors on casa and s.b. 50. and the board of supervisors should have a position for san francisco, because we have an an inconsistent position right now with some elective saying yes, and something no, and the directors are saying gas. i think that will really help us do it. a few other things i have here ... we need to raise taxes, right? and tax increases, we have the howard jarvis institute, and they sue everybody unless they can get there two thirds, which is really hamstrung. my fear is with prop c., and the other ones we had where we had initiatives by citizens, signatures, and we have things that are 50 5%, anything lower than 67% will not pass. i am worried about that. there's all kinds of funding sources, with us one of the most regressive ones we have. is a property owner, i am happy to pay a property tax if this will work and it will start solving things. the new regional housing entity authority will collect revenue, i guess that is taxes, invest in housing developments, and provide technical assista

i think the sense of this commission, and certainly the citizens is let's have a deep dive here in s.b. 50 , and have a hearing on it and actually vote like we did on a 27, and potentially the same with casa. >> anyone else on this? commissioner fong? >> well, commissioner richards, that's quite a thing to follow-up their. [laughter]. >> i applaud the amount of work that you put into this and other topics. i appreciate the idea that you suggested, and the problems that were presented. we are all struggling with a similar kind of problems. i want to thank mr true for taking on this task. if anyone can wage through it, i'm hoping that you -- and i thank you have the ability to do that. i don't have any great ideas to add to it necessarily, but i do think that san francisco is going to continue to grow, and it is a mistake for us to ignore and put her head in the sand thinking that san francisco will be exactly the way it was. no large city in america is going to be exactly the way it was. this is where the jobs are you guys all see the amount of technology and creativity that is happenin

that was before s.b. 54 was in effect. officials standing together responding inin ining to i.c.e statement. >> once we get all the facts i think it's going to lead us to p understand the facts and change them if needed. >> this shooting is under napa hurd, nbc bay area news. >> ail lanes have opened look highway 4 in martinez after a deadly crash. the chp says about two hours ago a car headi ined west pound hit struck alpedestrian. >> a disturbing discovery. a dead dog tethered to a great. the dog was found in clyde. animal services is asking for your help to find out what led to the dog's death. the crate was covered with a green nylon cover. the dog made about 15 points. police are on lookout after a series of car break-ins that led to a chase. the most recent break-in happened near sycamore road in danville. police say they spot -- the suspect spotted the pa control car and took off. the suspect hopped on to 680. the police chased the car but stopped because they believed it was dangerous for other drivers. >> take a l

program, the s.b. performance as well as the workforce performance. so we have the team here today. ray will not be presenting today, right? and maria will be presenting. we also have ken from city build -- oh, he's not. so with that, i'll turn it over to -- >> good afternoon. my name is maria paco. i'll be presenting today semiannual status report on small business enterprise and workforce programs. ocii has a long history of promoting equal history in contrasting and workforce -- equal history in contracting opportunities and contrasting opportunities in workforce. ocii has several policies that mirror city policies and these policies include our small business enterprise policy, our nondiscrimination and contracts and benefits policy, our health care and minimum accountability policy, our minimum compensation policy, workforce requirements, which basically means we have 50% local workforce goal in all contracts and a participation goals only where san francisco based firms are unavailable or their fees are definitely higher than those of non-san francisco based s.b.e.s. ocii work

last, tom, thanks for making this s.b.1. i think that's symbolism, way more than that, it's a priority. but the symbolism of making it s.b. 1 tells cynics or skeptics, i'll be kinder, skeptics like the governor, i can't believe he said that about pregnancy. >> he said that about family leave. taking a vacation. sen. brown: i'll just let you-all concentrate on that. not my place to weigh in. the symbolism and setting number one priority s.b.1 that in a legislative body says something and means something. that's our number one priority as the majority party. that's really smart and impressive and makes the chances of success that much greater. i'll stop there and love to hear comments or questions. especially comments. just thoughts and ideas. jan: cody has the microphone. if you want to ask a question or-- sen. brown: tell us about yourself. whatever you are willing to. name, community, where you grew up. whether you care about northwestern and ohio state -- no. anything you want to tell us. i don't care. >> my name is robin.

and american art association and supporting s.b. 127. i hope that today you will also join me in supporting this. >> i am 67. >> sixty-seven. supervisor ronen, are you speaking on 66? >> i am. i want to be out as a cosponsor, and say i am appreciative of this. i am working with senator weiner , as well as many different departments to address the interchange way, and to use that area, which is mostly owned by caltrain so it is safer for pedestrians, cyclists back and so we can potentially use some of the land in a much more productive way. i just really wanted to appreciate your work on this, president yee, and asked to be out of this is cosponsor. >> i would love to add to his cosponsor. that include supervisors mar, and haney. can we take this same house, same call? okay. motion passes. that brings us to 67. >> item 67 as a resolution to establish the position regarding liability for utility wildfire costs, and informing california legislators and regulators to protect consumers by ensuring that investor-owned utilities are held respon

bond money and the s.b.-1 funds. these are projects on lombard, 19th avenue, geary. folks are feeling the crunch of the traffic impacts, and i think that's something we continue to focus on with these agencies. we convened m.t.a. and public works on an information item last year about how they're looking at these as a group, not just an individual projects and try to reduce the impacts on individuals and businesses in particular. they do get complex, but i -- i am positive that with more concerted effort, we can provide even more advice and perhaps assistance to them as they try to find ways to ease the traveling experience across town. vision zero initiatives, we have our vision zero committee that's been chaired for several years now by commissioner yee, chair yee, and several other commissioners have been participating in the education and the outreach as well as street design efforts. so many projects were developed and approved by the sfmta that were very important and exciting with mayor bleed's support, as well. -- mayor breed's support, as well. our families

s.b.50, without removing local control. s.b. four and 50, as written, will heavily impact neighborhoods without adding any funding for schools, parks, transportation. and they would hurt our opportunities to build affordable housing because developers would be cherry picking sites all over town for market rate housing, especially in neighborhoods where the price of land is less. please hold hearings on these two bills, especially in the month of february we have a chance to impact the final legislation , and after february, please make san francisco's voice known, how we feel about the loss of local control in planning. thank you >> supervisors, it has been brought to my attention that the mayor and some of you supervisors do not mind -- our authorities, law enforcement and city authorities to target the homeless. target our seniors. and i don't know how you all can sit down in these chambers and talk in generalities when you must know, if you are intelligent, that we have 30,000 homes own

last year was a big year for s.b.-1, as well as air quality district management plans, and caka.nal role for us is to look with our sister agency at santa clara and san mateo. eric cordoba's looking at this, for buses and carpoolers and people who really want that direct connection between san francisco and the south bay. so thank you for that study and planning going forward. also on the d-9 planning freeway, worked through commissioner ronen's leadership to try to make things building on the allemeny neighborhood. moving to another sort of policy area where we've been able to provide some advise and guidance and direction to staff and partners and city based on your leadership, especially chair peskin around t.n.c. research, we looked at a whole spectrum of goals that would apply to mobility and shuttles and scooters and all the like, autonomous vehicles. we worked last season with assembly member ting and industry partners. in addition to the t.n.c. research on congestion, we looked at other ways that we can manage congestion for the broader sort of traveling public, and that

one last thing, if this esteemed committee or the board of supervisors can hold a hearing on s.b.-50 and its actual impact on san francisco because i've read the legislation and i've seen all the places where it points to, and you really need to understand it. it's -- it's going to rezone everything again, so thank you very much. i support this landmarking. >> chair peskin: thank you, commissioner richards, testifying in your capacity as a citizen of the city and county of san francisco and the matter that you just brought up is not before us, so we, as you know, pursuant to the brown act, cannot discuss that, but thank you for edifying us on the history of this property. with that, mr. verplank, who wrote the case report on this, please come forward. >> thank you, chair peskin. justin sevplank. i want to thank the owner of the property, miss te tess geiling. without her effort and the effort of her husband, john, this property would be a stucco home or parking lot, no doubt about it. they painstakingly preserved 22 beaver street, but they've also put the personal touches on the prop
