Commissioners, president brandon im with real estate and development, here seeking authorization for the request to proposals for the south beach historic piers 38 and 40.

Units and after it was rebuilt through hope 6 which was a whole other program before hope s. F. , there were only 200 units built. So clearly, everyone was not coming back. Thats why when i first started as a commissioner on the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency and we set out on our path to try and rebuild double rock and other places, it was important to me that we did it differently than we did in the past, so that residents played a Critical Role in not only deciding what fixtures and windows and how they wanted their community to be, but they remained a part of their communities. So thats exactly what we did. It did require a lot of patience and moving around and a number of things.

But today a promise is kept. 439 units of Affordable Housing for people, for families, for this amazing community. Through th
And we have those across those other categories as well. And so finally just some kind of highlevel key issues that sort of emerge from this report, from this analysis and findings.

And for all of these the degree of impact is obviously driven by the elevation of the port facilities, by the condition, by how they are used and whether it will be temporarily on permanently inundated across a number of scenarios. So different facilities become vulnerable at different scenarios depending on how high up they are. Port facilities play a critical Emergency Response function in terms of both staging areas and areas for people to aassembleasemiassemble or evacuate. So that would have a big impact on the citys ability to recover from a natural disaster. Shoreline open spaces are at risk and this is a valuable resource and a

Every college we started through model cities, we started a minister witmission with hiringl of the others. But for those familiar will the mission, talk with i forgot the directors name now don markham . No, he was the director of the model cities. They could link up with the colleges out there, training with childcare. We had over 40 people through the Childcare Programme and each were able to buy homes, so if we want people to stay in our community, we need to
Of Affordable Housing throughout San Francisco required the collaboration of a host of public agencies, developers, consultants, contractors, funders, and, most importantly, the residents of Hunters Point eastwest and westbrook themselves. The program demonstrates the citys commitment to leaving none of its residents behind and we are very proud to have been part of it. None of this would have been possible without the vision and leadership of our local elected and appointed officials, many of whom are here today and well do some shoutouts a little bit later.
