Thank you, since we have one applicant for the seat we can call up miss magy up and give us a presentation. Hello, supervisors, my name is ilyse magy and i am interested in seat 9 on the bicycle advisory commit ee. I work as an artist and organizor and focus on pedestrian advocacy and alternative transportation in both my professional and personal life. I currently work as an organizer with sf advocacy riders, we work to improve Public Transportation in San Francisco. I also volunteer with walk sf, creating projects to bring forth project vision zero. I have lived in San Francisco since 2008. I first moved here looking for a city that had a robust Public Transportation system, since i came from metro detroit, where we really dont be have one, so for a year i relid on muni because i was terrified of even riding a bike in a parking lot, but slowly i realized biking
Emerald cities, San Francisco bay area. Id like to thank supervisor mar and the staff for supervising this staff and getting us to this point. Emerald city has been involved in efforts to get to this point. We believe this committee will have great value in creating a more navigable and concerted platform for Energy Efficiency platforms and resources in San Francisco county. Emerald cities is a national organization, we Work Together to advance a sustainable environment by creating greater Economic Opportunities for all. We are transforming the Energy Efficiency sector in a high road way by retrofiting building stock, creating jobs and revitalizing the local economies of our region. So i am applying for seat 3 but i could qualify for 1 or 2 as well. In San Francisco we have successfully demonstrated a project for Energy Efficiency retrofit with a Community Work force agreement that we negotiated with the Building Trades and community at the table that ensured high road labor, community
The 3,000 tenants that we serve, we need to make sure those units are efficient and quality Affordable Housing. And so we are embarking on that project but also we are an Affordable Housing developer. So at the moment we are working on our proposal for 1950 mission street, a new 100 percent Affordable Housing development that is near the 16th street bart station. Were also researching sites down near 24th street in the Lower Mission to purchase and develop what are relatively smaller sites but nonetheless are just as important in these days of gentrification and displacement in the mission. And so what i see as Mission Housings role is that we will utilize our portfolio, our vast and very large, relatively speaking, portfolio to create and obtain the necessary funds and capacity which we will put towards new development because its about boat, its about making sure we have enough Affordable Housing and creating new, but also ensuring that that which we have is never ever lost. Can you
Riders, we work to improve Public Transportation in San Francisco. I also volunteer with walk sf, creating projects to bring forth project vision zero. I have lived in San Francisco since 2008. I first moved here looking for a city that had a robust Public Transportation system, since i came from metro detroit, where we really dont be have one, so for a year i relid on muni because i was terrified of even riding a bike in a parking lot, but slowly i realized biking is a great way to get around in San Francisco. I had some good allies that taught me how to ride in the streets and now its half of my main mode of transportation. So i feel that on the bac i could really serve as an advocate for multi modal transportation. I first heard about the seat opening on the bac through the Bicycle Coalition news letter and it piqued my interest but when i talked to someone on the committee who informed me there are only men currently on the committee i knew i had to change that by applying. So not
Around 7,000 latino families being displaced. Where does Mission Housing fit in with that. One, our portfolio, making sure our units are open and affordable for those who qualify. Second is looking for the small sites i mentioned. Its very rfp and funds to develop a new large Housing Project at 1950 mission. However, as we look at the current situation, that isnt enough and mission is trying to put its capacity and its resources towards establishing new ways to develop Affordable Housing, perhaps grouping together a few small sites and creating the economy of scale thats necessary to develop the housing. Were also talking with our community, those 3,000 tenants, as much as possible to get their viewpoint to see what they are focused on and what they are worried about because we are a trustee for those units and we are a trustee for those people and i would like there to be 6,000 tenants as soon as possible. 3,000 is great and its been an awesome 4 1 2 decades, but were focused on the n
