Into a bedroom. Thats called a micro unit situation where you dont even have your own private bath and bedroom. This will provide people with their own living space and their own private kitchen and bathroom. I also completely agree with the point that was made that we need more Family Housing. We absolutely do. And we should be supporting that. But almost 40 of San Francisco ans live alone as i mentioned at the beginning. And we need to be focusing on that segment of the population as well. The two are not mutually exclusive. So, colleagues, this is a good compromise piece of legislation. Although i agree with mr. Cohen and with the Planning Commission that ideally obviously i introduced this with no cap on it and that would be my preference. But politics and legislation being the process that it is, we Work Together and we came up with what i think is a good compromise and i stand by that compromise. So, yeah, that came in too late. I dont think we can reopen public comment. Okay. So
Today, successfully used in other cities specifically for young beginning workers, please remove any reference to seniors because, in fact, seniors will not be in this housing. And to prehe tend or pimp the housing of seniors and the disabled in saying that these 220 square feet is appropriate for a person in a wheelchair with a walker, or with a cane and helpful person is actually adequate needs to be removed in any reference from this ordinance or from this proposal from the Planning Department. Seniors will be living there, not only people that are beginning workers and lowincome. Please don pimp the seniors and disabled and say this housing is appropriate for them because in fact its not.

Board and our staff and we would like to very much continue that practice to the extent possible. And as you know, our practices in the place currently are that the travel goes through approvals informally by myself as executive director and the Commission President just to insure that it is within the realm of the ports business and accordingly, and it also needs to insure that we have available budget, and we have been insurancing that such travel and the reimbursement for travel expenses conform with the controllers guidelines for Business Travel and we also take an additional step by the Port Commission, which is the Port Commission and votes to ratify the travel of any commissioner, which is an unusual step in the city but one that i think that the commissioner has shown great leadership on. And some summarizing the written policy, we have added one more step which would be to request that the traveling commissioner fill out a travel authorization form, this is in keeping with the
So, there is a need for Affordable Housing for families, students, seniors and everyone. Therefore, thats why we worked diligently with our allies and you supervisors to ensure that we have a cap to really see and analyze that this is a need. And we really appreciate you hearing our concerns and we look forward to working with the planning staff to actually look over those analysis. Thank you again and we hope to that you support this legislation. Thank you. I dont have any other cards. So, if anyone after mr. Cohen is interested in speaking, you can just go ahead and line up. Good afternoon, supervisors. Tim cohen on behalf of the Housing Action coalition. Id like to support the proposed legislation for new housing product efficiency dwelling units with one important exception.
