Next speaker, please. Yes, hello. Speaking for equity for older students sm wstudents. We can be reached at equity forr older students dot org. The issue is public land being sold privately forever. City college is in very dire straights. The board of trustees and administration have made massive class cuts including the almost complete disruption of the older adults program. Three hundred classes cut last fall. Five hundred in the year before. This year, huge cuts in the esl program. Campuses are closing. Now theres to be another cut to existing use and potential growth including Affordable Housing and other uses by city college. We urge you to consider that many of the staff and teachers of city college are opposed to this as well. I would lake to bring your attention to two letters that were recently sent to the committee. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. Im in support of the reservoir project. I hope you move this project forward. Its exactly what we need into san
The 30 year timeframe. What this map that you are looking at shows is our past reductions since 2005 in pink. The pipeline is shown in hollow circles. It is on the east side around downtown and a few major plans such as candlestick and treasure island. As part of this analysis, we looked at feasibility of different types of developments and different locations and building types. Something that came through is High Construction costs which have been affecting the housing industry as a whole for the last few years are definitely a major barrier to producing and sustaining market rate and Affordable Housing over time. Those harder to quantify process and definitely also has an impact on housing costs. As part of this examination of where housing could go, we looked at three concepts for future housing growth. On the last you can see east side concept which essentially envisions additional housing being added to the east side areas where we have added much of our housing in the recent pas

Our overall Housing Production targets. We have struggled in the past coming in with less than half of this number of affordable units as well as lower level of production of housing overall. I wanted to add that we did not exam whether these targets were the perfect targets or acknowledging we have struggled to meet these targets in the past. We wanted to look at policy and investment to allow us to meet these at minimum and leave that discussion open to the public and policymakers about whether different targets should be pursued in the future. One of the key policy issues we explored was where new housing would be added and what it would look like. Initial analysis showed that we do need to add additional capacity for housing to be able to sustain the level of production at 5,000 units over the 30 year timeframe. What this map that you are looking at shows is our past reductions since 2005 in pink. The pipeline is shown in hollow circles. It is on the east side around downtown and a
