Thank you, mr. Jones. Either mike w. Im a owner of a several Small Properties in district 5, district 10 and district 8 so almost all of you represent something one area he own prototype and as a small owner i feel that those kinds of tenants protects that are being proposed are actually to protect people from the unscrupulous landlord i feel theyll not negatively effect me im not going to go after the elderly and sick i dont have to make up pretenses to get people out when i bought my place on roosevelt that there was a guy since 19675 and im proud to say hes there i could have been gotten him out but the arithmetic rate has allowed people that i keep you think with making a killing basically, im ive retired in my 40s bias the tenants are pagan my salary so i just would like to thank you supervisor jane kim for bringing a balance to what is going on in the city and places that i bought for 3 hundred grand radio worthy over one Million Dollars now i just so the greed and it is not that hard to be negligent negligent california and make a lifethreatening tenants look at the buildings as homes and landlord look at them as a source of income and that imbalance or 20 having to choose between kicking someone out of their home didnt fly prop 13 has stopped my property tax and my thirty year thank you im going to call another 10 speaker cards calling names . speaking foreign language. im the residents in richard district and im the landlord in San Francisco as well and i just want to say to someone as a landlord we other than pay for the property tax and you guys i want to let you know that you guys gave the inlaw units for San Francisco we also have rent control but since the rent control is only to protect the tenants it is not to protect our landlords and this Small Business owner we know that as the for example, i still remembered years ago on apple but right now it is increased at it point something but we only allowed to increase our rents pass as part ever one percent that also help us to feel a little bit helpless i know that you guys should protect and also to help the lowerincome in San Francisco and thats true and fair, however, i also hope you guys can consider our landlords feeling and also have to have rent control to help our landlord and Small Business owner thank you.

Hello my name is allen a San Francisco nature and a direct descend of a family that has owned property in San Francisco for many years im not here to debate the issue of whether tenants are bad or landlords are bad when im here to discuss with you a little bit about my thoughts about what the legislature is doing here for San Francisco San Francisco used to be a city where it was a friendly it city in the world everyone that owned property in San Francisco would open up their doors and rent to people and they would be there and be part of the family one thing that is has occurred since the start of rent control is that the reading landlord have become greed i didnt i am totally appalled at the fact of thinking of my parents who were small Property Owners and simply trying to rent out one of their units as being how would i say unfair and ununusually financially eco that is not the case of small Property Owners you need to look at the overall attempts youre trying to get at in trying to create legislation like this that undermines small Property Owners thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. My angle to bring the comments with things that mayor ed lee said im michael a go a long time residents of San Francisco living in district 3 i support in vitality piece of legislation mayor ed lee said last tuesday xandz dr. Espanola jackson the citys Housing Stock and stop being the we know from the housing balance it eviction protection is as important as the Housing Stock as it necessary and welcome all the proposed words adding to the Housing Stock specifically there was nothing in the proposal that addressed the eviction that is taking place in the city happening in the city for several years that is continuing today as we deliberately today, the legislation being discussed today addresses that problem head on and directly since the major cause of aforementioned evictions what is needed a stick in the spokes of the whole this kind of legislation is me is a test for every single supervisor on the board a test that shows whether supervisor want to join with mayor ed lee to stop the x disis my time up. You have thirty seconds.

Okay my name is a rocking ann supervisors you own property why is our property our bank account and Checking Account sacred why no supervisor on the stabilization and a law limit our ability if youve been defrauded we know the reason why you understand the necessity of safe guarding with your wealthy why not protect those people trying to director lee fraud us or prevent the recovery in sooerns sooerns essence why the appropriation your legislation makes it impossible to recovery the are reversal property if i cant evict a tenants due to breach and im an indentured servant to San Francisco you control how much rent i receive and now how much for decade if a tenant didnt move for decades and supervisor wiener legislation it is in period of time up to the time i organizes do you limit my wealth to benefit the attendants if youre concerned with the tenants support them with your wealth you have no right to take mine you see the viewers youd not dream have to tell someone what to think those mub controlled that is a contradiction the right to own property is a right i have a right to live sell any property and be reck penalty i have the right to go out of business just because the tenants has the rights regarding he or she property. Thank you. Next speaker, please next speaker. Are you asking if i called our name. I dont know whether you have called. Not. No. No sorry. We have over a hundred and 20 speaker cards and im not aware ive only made that halfway through. Good afternoon, members of the board thank you for your patience steve with the tenderloin housing clinic i want to thank you supervisor jane kim for drafting the legislation wanted to let you know we support the nuance amendment language that we discussed with supervisor wiener that hes introduced today, we also support the illegal use amendment or language that was addressed by scomploenz office thank you for that i do want to speak out against the amendment to the subletting provision promoted by supervisor wiener state law provides someone the right to have a caregiver under the housing act and under federal law as a reasonable accumulations so it is provided the mechanisms for getting that are already pretty much on for the landlords it didnt give us very much we really need people that dont need carves to afford to live in their unit and not evicted like supervisor wiener said a got you for evicts because people are lived there for many months and not on a lease. Uses that as a basis for evicts i dont think that that two persons per bedroom is too many landlords under this legislation would be a allowed to reject a roommate this is xhoul for years and not an original occupant so it becomes rentcontrolled and any increased cost bike or like waters uncle can be passed on to the tenants i think that is a reasonable provision and shouldnt be amended. Thank you, mr. Collier and commissioner lee times to make a comment. Mr. Collier thanks for working with us on the nuance language and glad to have unity you understand that you want to keep the full sub leasing language f but if this i have no idea would you prefer the caregiver language go in or stay out what i dont want to interfere with peoples rights under the state law but this addresses a basis for anyone to bring in a caribou youre familiar with the state law. I dont think that is necessary the danger of putting it in those one the relevant this cant be part of it so we have that problem but assuming all the language that we have in there i dont think so it amending that with the caregiver language. Right the caregiver language language i proposed on the summaries the other language can go out but sounds like youre saying if that the language ends up going out i dont know if it w will youll not have the caregiver language come in. It didnt help and basically and think that, of course, would say that while they all the time the law and allow the carves to come in. I appreciate that. Thanks. Thank you, mr. Collier. Hi good afternoon im sorry christine representing the law caucus thank you for your proficiency or patience there are a lot of speakers without further ado, i want to share a story ive been working with many, many families naming attendance this family is a family of 3 live in a two bedrooms and have guilt parents from china to the u. S. In 3 months from the starts of theyre takency when he when they saw the unit they did ask the landlord is it possible for them to move in their parents with who will be Golden State Warriors to the u. S. The landlords adding and tell them they need to sign a lease with us and that will be fine your parents can live with you so, of course, the tenants moved in and 3 months later their parents emigrated to the u. S. And was able to move in six months later the landlords told they cant stay because the parents are not on the lease and unauthorized tenants and knowing that the parents doesnt have anything else only the children and being in the Chinese Culture we have to take care of our parents without allowing the parents to stay the tenants will have to leave and find another place this story tells us with this legislation being passed from the tenants are are will have the opportunity and time to formally request the landlords to allow their parents to stay and be authorized tenants without being the legislation thank you, ms.

Good afternoon, members the Land Use Commission you know we been listening to and an unending flood of appeals for sympathy by small landlords someone that may have difficult tenants to make us forgot the other things the lymph glands have ultimate power and certainly good landlords way too many have been using that power to cash in on the gentrification and the wave of speculation in this hot rental market the hottest in the country that is behind the 70 percent surge in evictions San Francisco this and this is what needs to be addressed first and foremost if displacement is to be stopped in the africanamerican to be persevered and the hispanic and the seniors and disabled protected from the hoepgsz the way to put an end to fraudulent evictions to reduce or eliminate the motivate more making misuse the owner move in and make sure that tenants are proper language none of those are unreasonable psa those evictions protects and without year limit on vacant control. Thank you very much. Next speaker. And hi, im christi here today to oppose the legislation i understand that some of you supported this proposition in trying to solve the problem if the bayview but the storage shormg cant improve by conceiving rent control laws it will likely do the option with so many rent controls homeownership that dont rent their house will be doing so fearing once it is rented out theyve not have the control of their own property again, im share my experience my inlaw unit tenants i was stressfully we were trying to refinance the home but the inlaw unit tenants were comes up with all kinds of skews that is not let us in the house so as a result we did schedule 3 providersers the tenants were excusing to pay them 50,000 to let them in the house i dont understand why should the tenants be able to have to have control of our own property it is our personal property. Last id like to make a one last point as a District Supervisor supervisor kim you are you should represent the whole district not a small group of tenants please come up with some rent control with laws that protect everyone thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. No need to wait. Good afternoon. Im sal young id like to say no to protection why the homeownership cant stop renting to the tenants who will have criminals in the homeowners let the people stay in their property it is to support the rate they do for theyre living those tenants have the security of neighbors and communities why the homeless cant reviews to the 0 tenants are trouble makers it causes trouble to the homeownership e homeowner they sometimes lose money in order to deal with them the homeowners under the rent control in the San Francisco for example, from the tenants is not pay rents even for months they still have the right to stay or the homeowners have to pay them to send them out in reverse from the homeowners dont pay them for their prompt the family i hope our city can remember before you indicator the new property for the benefit to the tenants and also to the homeowners please come up with a solution to beneficiary the tenants and the homeowner thank you for the chance to repeat our aspirations thank you. Thank you. Im back again, im scott weaver from the San Francisco Tenants Union i want to talk about the additional occupants and i think analysisly look at the balancing test balancing the detriment to the landlords requiring them to allowing them to increase the number of occupants against the Public Benefit of allowing more on into those units so lets look at what the provision does it allows occupy pans in establishing the local limit of occupancy in housing in San Francisco there is thought what is a reasonable amount of occupancy for the units it allows the landlords to refuse additional occupants if they have a good reason they dont have to accept the occupant the landlords cannot unreasonable refuse it but if they have a good reason they can it is the way it is written you have to have a good reason so whats the detriment if there are increased costs involved theres a provision 37. 43 that allows payment of additional rents no laws are violated the benefits are more and more Affordable Housing and it is, of course, freedom of association a basic right to privacy that is has been firmed by the courts people should be able to live together people who they choose to live with without fear of evictions as long as there is good reason for that. Thank you, mr. Weaver. Good afternoon, everyone i worked and attend the south of market district as a organizer in selma i met some folks evicted eastbound evicted because of additional Family Members or changed the roommate i am here to demands to stop revocations and in this city with the most rents tenants this be given reasonable opportunity to add or change a roommate this is tenant should not be revoked for legally the families or apartments the landlords are applying changes that make an example are seniors or persons with skablts being denied to share their apartment with tare caregivers the 2. 0 expands the protects to have the owners request romance and give the tenants 10 days notice that is not if not received the lords permits i urge this protection measure be passed.

Hi, im jewel tammy have a story to share the story is about a man would come to this country in 1971 and lived in the city a working immigrant he bought his first house and raised a family of 6 not having a pension when he dbes old is a risk he saved his for a Investment Property he had to pinch money to survive for the down payment and never took a vacation nevertheless, he took pride in a fixer upper in the working class of excelsior i loved it in a good side of town it doesnt matter if it as working class of many demographic transient folks he loves his neighborhood he rented outs his house to his family and when keeping you informed we reached his elderly in the 80s 3 years ago he realized he needs to rent for some income he did he was elated when a family of 3 adults and children want to rent slowly over the years the attendance started to lease the old man talked about their 0 vision the tenants verbally agreed not to do that a year ago a teenager can move in from another country and replied an adult they rewrote a new contract and didnt raise a cents because those are working folks like himself 6 months later the tenants in the building noticed this elderly man shes seen many faces returning around the house and can i see clivenlg climbing the fence. Making a lot of noise. 30 seconds maam, try to resolve this issue those attendance agreed verbally theyll look for a place to live and months later nothing in the meantime 10 occupant are staying in a nine hundred foot home with kids running around so the elderly served them a thirty day notice the elderly landlords decided to give him a break until christmas is over talk about humanity when the courts date arrived in january, the tenant had their own attorney and asked for 35 house in compensation and months of raised rents. Im sorry your time is up thank you. Hi names a man in a young im heard a lot of the audience here one thing i can see unite us the tenants and owners alike it pains me everybody on the grounds you know that world war ii was the babies baby boomers and homeowners and tenants are elderly so homeowners needs to retire just like the attendants so it is times the or 10 years it is natural more people want to retire and get out of the rental market and enjoy their lives that should be encouraged and integrated instead finding homeowners have been precedent getting attacked by the legislation so and he can see so i know a few numbers okay. He dont statistic analysis for a living this is a thank you. This is a graph from is where he cant very simple okay shows the average events that are changing the first few thoughts were from 90 to 94 reality steady up to 94 the 60 percent dbi and then the numbers got conspirator high and out of control and also the vacancy went down over the 60 percent ami so the homeowners were getting the blame for natural thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, supervisors im charlie i work on golf foyers for the Apartment Association the legislation as currently written so far overreach it impacts the day to day operation not just the bad actors but forced to revoked for the benefit of all the residents i want to touch on a few issues i appreciate some amendments have been made first, the ordinance completely discards and renders no forcible cousins causes well appreciate and support supervisor wieners with regards to the caregivers and second the ordinance requires that a nuisance is acting teptd at the time the tenants has participated or parties every night but you have to send the notice at 3 00 a. M. And harder to address this this is reducing the quiver for the tenants in the building we also building the ordinance puts owners and attendance for listens in a gray area not able to charge rent and not able to advocate a tenant it has the effect of keeping a tenants in an unsatisfactory lifethreatening position we support supervisor cohens issue lastly the tenderloin housing clinic has made presentation about what a tenants and landlords rights if more people can raise the rents or change the terms of at the endcy theyll not have the rights we are wondering if a representative is here to clarify because excellent question im glad you raised it but unfortunately, no representative from the rent board i dont know why . Please. Next speaker.

San Francisco Gray panthers strongly supports the owners to the landowners i ask if there is a few bad apples and cutters laws in place that prevent abuse or so why this epidemic of bad evictions that are going on now landlords have asking why are there so many laws for the tenants it is basic the landlords opener give them life or death situation he basically relationship of the ownership the tenants have them by the throat everybody has a right to live in places not move awe from tare trust doctors who gives the landlords the right to get rich and how dare the lords insult those people by calling them low life no profit no housing and profit in evictions.
