i came to work on a couple of things. among them is out to get money together, and maybe you will listen to this. this is not trained properly. they will cheat the tenants, with children who are worse than that. this is very unsophisticated, and they have seen the managers, and just because they speak a different language does not mean does not mean they cannot comprehend what you are saying. this does not give you the right to yell at them. i happen to speak five languages. for me to be there hearing the manager yelled, this is one issue i would like to have mended. they should have this would have to deal with elders the next speaker? i can just hold this town? the second microphone to your left is the easier one to use. this is just my karma, and my incredible circumstances. there is a meeting going on. i was trying to meet with the supervisor, and actually, is one of the supervisors on the board also named lee? this is just to address the body that is here.
collaborations we created. finding out what is going on in those other hotels. one thing i want to say today is about the seniors. seniors living in s.r.o. hotels, there is no real housing. you have a room and a bathroom, like a studio. one housing for one single man or woman, to have a place. there is the real housing. if you live in the s.r.o. hotel without a bathroom or kitchen and this is broken and you don t have the seniors, who is handicapped, they can t get up, this is a problem. we have so many hotels. the city and the four neighborhood missions we don t have this with working. it is a problem, too. i am here today to give my full support to all the seniors and asking the supervisors about how we want to create decent housing, proper housing for all the people in san francisco. they have more time to homeless and seniors. this is one recommendation. please put attention to the people who need us. have a good day. next speaker? good afternoon. i am tommy. i
i am the tent organizer and i also go to the mission collaborative. i live in the mission hotel. hoi could give you some horror stories about this. i think that we should basically have movie nights for them, and we have our meeting, this week s them up. we have these pet shelters and an animal shelter so they can bring this in and the seniors can play with them, so we can they can learn how to raise them. and this is something they can care for and nurture, and said just letting them live in isolation. we have to get them into the common area. we have to get them out. but now they just go into the room and lock the door appea. if we had a puppy or pets over there you know. the shelter could bring pets there. this is the last thing. i want to talk about the s.r.o. we need more activities. thank you. supervisor cohen? are pets allowed in s.r.o. s? yes. that would make them more happy. dan? walter janus? lorenzo boston? betty trainer? ellen helms? benito casavos
senior action network as well as the central city i would relalally like to say the seniors and disabled members of the community are often the most vulnerable. they should receive the best care. i have one more card, along the side of the room. but i want to agree to other supervisors that are here. no so with the senior action network. i am advocating with some friends of mine. i live with some housing the s.r.o. s have a myriad of nightmare stories, including a man who was 84 years old who lived there for 13 years and this has been leaking on his bed. they say that they have fixed the room, and the only time that leaks is when it rains. every time it rains, it rains on his bed. he puts a tarp over his bed. the dripping kept him awake. he was living in community partnership housing, and it had zero heat in there, and all of the complaints, this was refused after she made the complaint. she is blind and asked for accommodations. the community housing partnership refuse
instructors and to the hotels. they should give the inspectors the authority to write citations upon sight. they are denied access into the hotel. these are citations that should be issued on site. a lot of private hotel operators to not allow the inspectors to come in. he should increase the fee as well. it makes no sense that we have so many people living in inhumane conditions. i am fighting with the collaborative, and every other city departments. making certain that these tenants are getting treated fairly and the conditions are improved. mrs. collins? i have a question. i wanted to get the dvi code enforcers, who come through the door that is where they are denied? they are denied assets when managment says you can t come in or this is not taking place. there is the denial of the problems existing, the investa tion of rodents or bedbugs. elevators out for two or three days. these are the se conditions denying assets into the hotels. this needs to be tighte
