also, apparently the 30,000 units that are vacant, maybe to have a conversation with the san francisco apartment association, tried to engage to find ways of filling some of those units, so i think that this does not dissuade from continuing the conversation about the pursuit of affordable housing, but certainly at the end of the day, in many ways, this conversation to me was very much about real estate values, and there are other ways of capturing some of these equity issues and affordable housing concerns. chair: thank you, supervisor olague. seeing there are no other questions, to the city attorney, i do have one. we were talking about the parking spaces. does that trigger any ceqa issues on our part? >> it could, and you should get some input from planning on whether that is the case. chair: oh, welcome. >> supervisors, welcome -- hello. i am paul with the staff. on that one point of the reduction of parking to to letterspaces and the ceqa implications, i have a memorandum that i want to submit to the board to put into the record. we were aware that that might be considered by the board, so we did look

more than any other nation, the united states possesses a traditional moral identity and that identity is clearly associated with religious tolerance. democratic governance, freedom of the individual, promotion of economic opportunity andry si y resistance to oppression. this set of ideals was reaffirmed through the sacrifice of our civil war. it was amplified during two world wars in which the united states opposed the forces of aggression and conquest. it was reinvigorated through the struggle of our own civil rights movement. our moral identity glows from thomas jefferson and abraham lincoln through wilson and ronald reagan to the present day. and rarely do we take a major foreign policy initiative without some attempt to justify it on moral grounds. rarely are failed foreign policies spared morally based criticism. in making this observation, i'm not claiming the united states is the undisputed moral compass of the world. rather i say no nation is more closely associated with a set of historic moral precipes and no nation is judged more meticulously according to its own articulated values. as an observe

the 1% transfer fee associated with each unit is a brilliant idea. the board gets to participate in it, the upside of the sale, and the revenue stream goes to the port. there are tremendous benefits to the city, and we need to retain jobs, have people move here. we have been reading over and over again that there is a huge shortage in the housing rate. the fee that will be paid equates to about 25%, as well as significant taxes. this is a great deal that to be accepted. it has been almost seven years and i encourage you to go for it. thank you. chairperson chu: thank you. next speaker. >> my name is o faughz eriksson and -- my name inspect oz eriksson and i am the chairman of the emerald find. we provided development of the hotel. before we developed the vitale it was a parking lot, a new bus parking lot. and it was pro-family ugly. when munich -- it was profoundly ugly. when muni came to us, and we responded with four or five other people and we won the competition to get it, we were very, very strongly opposed by well-meaning people. ralph moral sai

conclusion the reserve officers association does not endorse the ratification and actively -- and it claims it's right and the territory was manifest to agree and it acknowledges that the united nations has authority over the united states maritime, territorial claims and the reserve officer's association concern is that the law of the sea treaty goes on and goes on and on. i ask also that this be made a part of the record. these are all retired people, and i think that is significant. i'll have to quickly go through this. it used to be a yes or no answer because there isn't time for more than a yes or no answer. the not signing of this will not compromise in any way our ability to use force or to navigate. is that true? is that yes or no? do you agree with that, starting with you, general jacoby? >> yes, senator, i agree. >> do you agree? >> yes, sir. at the moment it will not, but in the future it could. >> i agree. >> okay. >> you all agree? >> thank you. >> at the last hearing, here's a guy who is your boss and the joint chiefs is general dempsey. at the last hearing he was asked a question as to whether or not this would have an effect and whether failure to ratify the l

so it really was possible to live in a very small unit, but that is because of the land use conditions associated with it. my understanding is planning has determined that supervisor wiener's proposal to redefined the efficiency unit in a way that reduces the size and puts an absolute limit of two occupants -- planning said this really does not affect land use and we do not need to consider how this will affect land use. and when i think of all of the ways that living in a small unit requires you to make use of outside resources, to me, that is a land use impact. i really wish planning would take a look at it and understand what the impacts would be, not only in outside services, but also, how many families in san francisco are now living in, granted, far less than optimal conditions, as single parents with two kids -- are they now going to be restricted with where they can live, even in a large efficiency because this legislation caps it at two? what the impacts of that on social service agency in trying to provide transition housing for homeless, people trying to make it at home but on a limite
