san franciscans deserve better. they dee he serve to know the facts and they deserve to know the truth. so, here they are. we don't actually know how much back taxes are owed. we don't even know if the city has the ability to collect them. we don't have the luxury of waiting to deal with this issue. we need regulation in place right now today so that we can go after the projected $11 million that we know we can go after and get. we he also need to have faith that our city attorney and our tax collector have the ability to review the legal issues and proceed in a way that is best for us here in san francisco. so, to me city attorney herrera and treasurer cisneros have always demonstrated the ability to fight for san francisco and to stand up for us when we need them. now, san francisco's affordability issues are nuanced and trust and believe they're very complicated. they don't just impact tenants or one area of san francisco. less' get that real clear. we are all impacted by this. this issue has shown me that many s

[ applause ] >> thank you. katherine howard. catana galvan,rds or [ [ reading speakers' names ]. >>

because we haven't closed some of the loopholes that are in it, then we know that many, many san franciscans will continue to suffer and to leave this city. and we're seeing the great divided wealth in san francisco widen right before our eyes all over again. and, so, i would like to go back to proposing a 90-day cap to short-term rentals for both hosted and unhosted rentals. this was an amendment that i had put forward last week and i know the city attorney has drafted that already so can make that available. it was shared last week so i think it's easily at their disposal to be able to provide for us. but when i proposed that as an amendment to the ordinance. ~ but i want to propose it a an amendment to the ordinance. >> is there a second to? supervisor campos. >> thank you. >> supervisor campos. >> thank you. i have another amendment that i'd like to make. i don't know if it's appropriate for me to speak to that amendment now or if we want to stick to speaking to the amendment by supervisor avalos. >> i think as we did last time, let's take all the amendments in case there are others and

bicycling bike lanes and 50 additional miles by 2018 we proved our bike share program 2 thousand san franciscans members plus and short term memberships we day viewed the bike progress we should be able to do this not only in san francisco but regionally and construction is well underway from the spa and it's on time and within budget contrary to you all the negative media that we've received this is going very, very well and that central subway will definitely reduce the traffic times and increase ridership between chinatown and south of market when it as opposed to opens up in 2019 i want to leave i with an understanding of what has to happen in the next 10 years with the amount of jobs and housing weigh to see in san francisco we need to keep reviving in our transportation system that's why you see a 5 hundred thousand there's bond prolapse a does not raise our property taxes isn't that credible we can raise the bond and keep the discipline now you get another $500,000 to match we've sfliftd our hospitals and fire stations and very badly needed auxiliary wart system in mission bay this is fro

do we have local san franciscans here today they're all working that's why you didn't hear from them this is going in the right direction we're expensing an affordable crisis is it not g just about housing in order for people to stay and live in the city we need to insure that we have diversity in our neighborhoods and make this is what makes san francisco so unique we need to look at the affordability crisis from multiple lens to make sure the residents have diversity range of opportunity to grow is essential to the health and vitality of our city i'm proud of this place let me let me hear excitement we have a transforming san francisco thank you so much for being here back to you larry. >> thank you, supervisor (clapping) we're delighted to announce today that the first occupant of this beautiful new facility will be molly stone the bay area treasurer for 25 years and market tenant for a decade the chief operating officer for molly stone. >> thank you larry (clapping.) supervisor cohen and maxwell ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of our mike stone and the whole stone family welcome

housing opportunity and limit income recipients of that fund to afford the opportunities for san franciscans we think there should be a limitation placed on single room occupancys for the public money for the purpose of creating housing opportunities for the restricted populations i strongly urge that the question of shiners be addressed it's a question that's necessary to insure that the highest level both the owners of the property at the s c r unit are not the owners or the tenants it's not necessary to stipulate a dollar amount but scripture a sufficient amount of money to be applied - >> thank you, mr. welch. >> supervisors a simple fact you've heard it in testimony and in real estate listing two to three times more lucrative to represent to tourists than people that live and work in the city if you don't put a clear and limited cap certainly in the morning that 90 days hosting or unhosted the effect of the protective codifies the market conditions to drive up marking costs in the city if it's your intent sell it if that's our intent of the legislation what is the better for the working

when the mayor and the board committed to creating more jobs in san franciscan it was not about creating just any jobs but with health care it was not only allowing our workers to afford to live in santa fe san francisco but support their families i want to acknowledge the labor and workers they've been clear in leading issues to protect our protecting workers they fought for sick day and no other city considered those landmark lacks foundation now cities are joining san francisco's ranges san francisco has a lot of to the proud of not only are we pushing the boundary within the boundary of san francisco but impacting the lives of workers throughout the country our president made a call to raise the national minimum wage but if congress can't do it localities should it's simple and clear and i and i'm confident san franciscans will proudly vote for the measure there are so many people the mayor and mayor's office the nonprofit leaders that were committed and, of course, labor and workers that have been waiting for the wage even as different that was no one wanted to walk away from bringi

pushing san franciscans out of san francisco whether you're a landlord who is ellis acting to establishment all each year around bed-and-breakfast this will apply though per day finances and penalty if you engagement in that activity on the other hand, we've heard that short-term rentals and human resources have allowed struggling san franciscans to afford to live in our city senior citizens on a fixed income and families traveling for vacation and workers xhoountd and artist our legislation says if you're a permanent resident an individual that lives in the city 9 months of the year and play by the rules and register with our city so if there's issues we can address them and pay our full share of taxes that means tens of million dollars of delores to the city so long as you pay liability shushes and not undermining rent control laws i also want to thank land use as well as the members of the public and the stakeholders that have addressed concerns from the first legislation let me 13450ir some of the changes we've made we've addressed concerns brought by the affordable housing community ex

families will call unanimously this student lives in oakland their unfairly taking a spot from a san franciscan so we actually spent a lot of money investigating those ten to 17 families and i know there are questions about privacy and security and those investigations really infringe on that we followed kids home we walked out of school with them i was stupid when i heard about the investigates post investigates we'd get on the bus and they get off at daily city we caught you or knock randomly at 6 o'clock in the morning to see if the families are living there if we move in that direction and we get a call they don't live there i'm afraid of the planning department right leg to do this type of investigation but it's far more infringing on someone's privacy than simply understanding the number of nights that is recorded i don't know if planning department has a response to that but i imagine this is the path we're going to have to walk down if we move to a hosted and non-hosted kind of pathway and unlimited nights of hosted pathway. >> thank you scott sanchez planning staff it's clear the legis

positive or negative sound. >> on the other hand, we also know that home sharing has allowed san franciscans so afford to live in the city seniors students traveling for the summer or contraband parent visiting during christmas artists or workers traveling one day of the week and under our legislation if you are a permanent resident that's someone living in the city at least 9 months out of the year and play by the rules we'll permit you to give the amendment in limited activity our rules you'll register with the city any issues come up we know who is responsible it requires a host to pay fuel taxed it's estimated we could be o'clock collecting a lot of tax and host to get insurance and requires the host not to do anything in violation of your life and safest building codes what i property it requires you live in san francisco at least 9 months of the year this coincide with a season for a student during the summer or family that's traveling or workers out of town for one week of the month or one week i understanding that most the home sharing community thinks this is too stricken gent we've

so, and among the 35 to 50-year-olds, we have a higher birthrate than the women state wide. >> san franciscans in general will earn more than their peers state wide, however, gender based income disparities do persist, and here you have median and men and women working in san francisco and you will notice that the women are earning ten to 20 percent less for the same work compared to men the graph shows the gender, i am sorry, the median annual income by gender for the various sectors of the work. and so you will notice that 52 percent of women work in the management business, science or arts and but they are earning $15,000 less than their counter male counter parts and this is true across all sectors. so this may lead to partially why there are more women living in poverty in san francisco than there are men and over all 16 percent of women live in poverty and when we break that down by age, that proportion goes up to 23 percent for women who are 75 or older, and then, for women, who are in families, this is, especially, important issue, because, the bar, all the way to the left is all famil

because i am hoping that i will have a fifth generation san franciscan that can afford to live in san francisco. and that will be able to go to quality san francisco school. and i urge you to support you for the fair salary and there is something going on about the $15 minimum wage and across mcdonalds how much are they making and what do they need to survive? just think about. and if you were making minimum wage, could you survive in san francisco? >> i would love to ask that question, and does everybody on this board live in san francisco? >> you know? thank you for your time. >> >> thank you. public comment is now closed. >> item k. advisory committee reports, appointments to the advisory committees by board members? >> anything? >> seeing none, l, special order of business, none tonight. >> discussion of other educational issues superintendent do we have something? i think so, educational placement center, preview of the november enrollment process and time line? thank you, president fewer and so we would like to invite executive director from the education center who is going to

my husband here is a fourth-generation san franciscan and we have seen the city go through a lot of changes over the years. i want to applaud the young people who spoke today, and i want to lend support to everything that was said today. i would also like the record to reflect that the video that has gone viral was taken by dimitry barton who is now in college back east, but i don't think he has any idea this is going on right now. i just want you to know that there are people watching, and the steamroller of privatization has got to stop. the city is a place that used to be family-friendly, and i remember when museums were free and we should bring that back, you know? our tax dollars should work for us and for everybody in the city. thank you. >> thank you, [ reading speakers' names ] >> i have raised my son in the mission and he is grown-up now, but there were even less places to play then and it's always been a problem. the way that we actually met people before he got too old to go with me, we would go to the playground and meet our community there. we would play with them. there would

and i am a fourth generation san franciscan, and so i am very passionate about keeping my city great and making our city great. >> commissioner gamez? >> my name is alicia gamez and i am a commissioner on the status of women and i have had the pleasure of serving for about three and a half years. and in my day job and i am an attorney and i practice in the areas of tax and trust and state planning and litigation, and i am a current board member of the san francisco bar association, and i am a chair of the trust and states litigation section of the bar association. and also on their tax executive committee. i am in my prior career, i was an academic and i moved out here and earned a phd at stanford which i carried forward, in my training and ethnic studies and women and gender studies which i have had the pleasure of applying here during my tenure as a commission on the status of women. and i am, it is with great pleasure that i attend this joint commission meeting. commissioner jung? >> hi, i am mary jung and i served on the commission for two years, and my day job i am the director

from woodside arthur ton palo alto and potrero hill and san mateo and santa clara valleys not san franciscans they could take this money and spend as much as they want for people in the suburbia's that are not 2k3w50b8g9d to pay it back it's probably illegal under the called government code and uses the word money maybe spent not shall and didn't define even what the money maybe spent on. >> how will the use of those funds impact levels finds traffic congestion. >> they're to impact them positive less traffic congestion meantime people choose to take a 0 bike instead of a car it is positive in order for people to lease it leave their automobile at home we have to make at that safe and sufficient so some of the projects we've increased the ridership and i on business lines people are switching modes and car driving in san francisco is a declining mode share meantime we make it easier not to drive again, it is a win for all of us. it helps with air pollution and helps with children's activity levels having the streets safe so kids what walk and bike and parents are comfortable walking their kid

i am also a native san franciscan, have run two successful businesses here in the city. also an ex-offender and have a unique perspective of what it takes for someone to make that transition back into society. our organization currently impacts over 3,000 reentering people within the san francisco bay area servicing all nine counties. we have also secured jobs for over 400 in last 45 days here in the city of san francisco for exoffenders. i think our broad experience, even though a short amount of time that we have been in existence, i think that we can be a value and asset to the board, and the council, as well as bring some truly frontline information and activity to bear within the council. >> any questions? supervisor tang. >> i am just going to ask this question of all of the applicants. so when you are up here, everyone can address some of the issues that they would like to work on through serving on the reentry council and some of the challenges that may see from people that you are trying to serve. >> was that the question? >> yes. >> currently it's my belief, my
