san franciscos have learned is the decision of displacement. we learned that in the international hotel. we learned that in the a-2 and redevelopmentmes and places. and yet, this bill, senate bill 827, puts us and precipice -- and admittedly so -- of getting back into the policy making of displacement and the ruining of lives. and you i don't say that lightly because i understand, and i acknowledge that supply is part of the issue and as a supervisor, maintaining the affordable housing that we have is also an issue whether it's the academy of cart gobbling up sro hotels for student dormitories, whether it's gentryification, those are all things we have to address at the same time we add supply. and it's not any supply. it is affordable supply for people who live and work in the city and county of san francisco. so i want to have this conversation today and i also want to acknowledge that senator wiener has made a number of amendments to senate bill 827, those amendments have recently been published. i also want to say that san francisco has learned over time that when we enter into the planning process, when this committee and pred

san francisco and thank you for not rolling your eyes, change is good, but that implies improvement, not just any old change. not hyper development. i think it was james baldwin who called redevelopment the negro removal act. what is happening in the fillmore is happening in omi. you have foreclosures, prices are zooming. can i even afford to stay in the city? anyway, go to paris. why is the beautiful? because they don't allow this cluster mess. go to the paris suburbs. they're horrible. they're huge towers, dense clusters, everyone hates them. the french hate them. the city parents knew you don't allow this sort of thing in city limits if you want a beautiful prosperous tourist city. i am in favor of affordable housing, but you know, this is not -- [bell ringing] >> supervisor tang: thank you very much. >> the overhead, please. >> supervisor tang: sf gov tv, overhead. >> good afternoon, supervisors, i'm richard, i oppose state bill 827. will rogers said every time a politician makes a joke it becomes a law. every time he makes a law it becomes a joke. a very, very bad joke for san francisco. as a senior elected official of san francisco it would be a travesty for you to disenfranchi
