Permanent occupancy. So that is something we would appreciate further discussion on. It is something that we dont currently do, and it lives outside of our scope of work. Thank you. 819 lombard is actually a perfect example. Part of what sparked that project and part of the benefit was the additional of three adus. So while on the one hand were trying to incentavise the building of new somewhat affordable housing, we are ending up actually losing existing affordable housing. And so part of what i think the community and the supervisor is trying to do is to create some impediments, where bad actors are disincentive vised. Disincent vised. And a some point that tenant is going to be able to come back, there is a financial disincentive for them to keep that unit open as we have taken care of that family for six months or a year or year and a half. And, yes, it is a policy choice because the pie is getting a little bit smaller. There is no question about that. And that means that some folk
Appear on the october 1st board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise state. Chairman thank you. Can we call item number one. Item one is the ord nan and the administrative code to add a preference and City Affordable Housing projects for tenants temporarily evicted for rehabilitation work, to provide evidence of complying with the tenants right to reoccupy such tenant rental units. Chairman thank you so much. I forgot to announce we have our guest, supervisor peskin, who is here to talk about the substantial amendments for item one. Im going to pass this over to supervisor peskin. Thank you, supervisor walton. And i want to thank you for waiving the 30day rule. This is a proposal to amendment the Housing Preference policy to accommodate tenants displaced by temporary Capital Improvement conditions, which is quite pronounced in areas of the city that have older rent control housing like the corner of the city i represent. San franciscos existing rent law a allows landlords to evict te
Chairwoman a quick question i know that is happening, and it is happening in the Mission District constantly, so this is a really important piece of legislation. But i just want to understand what happened. So the person gets a preference, moves into an Affordable Housing unit through that preference, and then their original unit, the Capital Improvements are done, and the landlord does the right thing and offers it back to the tenant. Right. Chairwoman does that person then have to move in or lose the unit can you walk me through how that is going to work . Sure. This will require an amendment to our leases so that it would need to provide for Affordable Housing unit when the tenant gets a preference and they move in with this temporary preference. It would need to be a condition of the lease there is a policy that you can havent more than one rental unit, if you have Affordable Housing. If you have another unit offered to you, it is a legitimate condition of theyre having a temporary
Are saying that that rentcontrolled unit is going to remain a rentcontrolled unit at its previous rent. There are legitimate reasons that people have to temporarily displace a tenant for major work. Some of the mandatory work. I get that. But there is also a group of folks who go about, many of them speculators, keeping units off the market as long as they can, knowing that that tenant is not going to return. To the extent that we a say were going to own it and have a place for them because we actually do have the capacity within our inclusionary and 100 affordable stock, and we have these Additional Findings that the a. L. J. Has to make, and ultimately were in the business of preserving existing rentcontrolled housing at its current nonvacated rates. Which is the whole reason for this. I want to thank the asian law caucus and c. D. C. , and the Tenant Rights Committee for pushing this supervisor on his legislation. I would hope that the committee would adopt the amendments and then w
