"content": "\u003cp>Ronnie Johnson, 49, doesn’t know what she will do if she is evicted from her rent-controlled loft in San Francisco’s Mid-Market neighborhood. She's thinking about moving in with her parents in Washington state or trying to start over in a new city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In February, Johnson, along with the 22 other residential tenants in her building, received an Ellis Act eviction notice from her landlord, known as 1049 Market St. LLC.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'Someone's trying to throw you out of your house, in a place where there are no other houses for you.'\u003ccite>Tony Breaux,\u003cbr>\nResident of 1049 Market St.\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The eviction — one of the largest Ellis Act evictions in San Francisco since the law was enacted in 1985 — comes after several years of legal battles between the tenants of 1049 Market St. and their landlord. This kind of eviction, officially called an Ellis Act withdrawal, permits building owners to evict residential tenants in order to remove their units from the residential market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this case, 1049 Market St. LLC intends to rent all of the building’s 86 units as commercial office space. But some of the building’s residential tenants say they won’t leave without a fight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Building's Complicated History\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though dozens of Ellis Act evictions occur each year in San Francisco, 1049 Market St. is a unique situation and the zoning of the building has been disputed for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1991, the top floor of the six-floor building was permitted for live-work lofts, a type of commercial zoning specifically for tenants who operate a business out of their residence. The first through fifth floors of the building are permitted exclusively for commercial use and were never approved for residential use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10952794\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-10952794 size-large\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/05/eviction_still03-1920x1080.jpg\" alt=\"Ronnie Johnson's loft on the sixth floor of 1049 Market St.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ronnie Johnson's loft on the sixth floor of 1049 Market St. \u003ccite>(Lucas Waldron/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, many of the units on those floors have been rented to residential tenants since the 1990s. Many of the units have lofted beds and small kitchenettes, and most tenants share communal bathrooms on each floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2013, the landlord issued eviction notices to 39 units on those first five floors, citing plans to demolish the residential units and rebuild the spaces for commercial use. Those tenants have been in legal gridlock with the landlord ever since, and final decisions about the legality of the eviction are still pending in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The seven sixth-floor units were spared eviction notices because of their live-work zoning. Johnson and her neighbor, Tony Breaux, are the only residential tenants remaining on the sixth floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As other sixth-floor tenants have moved out, the landlord has begun renovating the empty units and renting them to businesses. Currently, unit 602 is rented by PritchardPeck Lighting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though Johnson and Breaux were not involved in the 2013 eviction, they have sparred separately with the landlord.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, Breaux filed a petition with the San Francisco Rent Board against John Gall, one of the owners of 1049 Market St. LLC, after his monthly rent was increased by nearly 13 percent, from $970 to $1,095.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board ruled in Breaux’s favor, stating that no certificate of occupancy had ever been issued for the sixth floor of the building, making his unit illegal and subject to rent control laws. Gall presented a certificate of occupancy to the court in his appeal in 2014, indicating the certificate should be backdated to 1991 — when the units first became live-work lofts.

The first through fifth floors of the building are permitted exclusively for commercial use and were never approved for residential use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10952794\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-10952794 size-large\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/05/eviction_still03-1920x1080.jpg\" alt=\"Ronnie Johnson's loft on the sixth floor of 1049 Market St.\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ronnie Johnson's loft on the sixth floor of 1049 Market St. \u003ccite>(Lucas Waldron/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, many of the units on those floors have been rented to residential tenants since the 1990s. Many of the units have lofted beds and small kitchenettes, and most tenants share communal bathrooms on each floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2013, the landlord issued eviction notices to 39 units on those first five floors, citing plans to demolish the residential units and rebuild the spaces for commercial use. Those tenants have been in legal gridlock with the landlord ever since, and final decisions about the legality of the eviction are still pending in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The seven sixth-floor units were spared eviction notices because of their live-work zoning. Johnson and her neighbor, Tony Breaux, are the only residential tenants remaining on the sixth floor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As other sixth-floor tenants have moved out, the landlord has begun renovating the empty units and renting them to businesses. Currently, unit 602 is rented by PritchardPeck Lighting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though Johnson and Breaux were not involved in the 2013 eviction, they have sparred separately with the landlord.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, Breaux filed a petition with the San Francisco Rent Board against John Gall, one of the owners of 1049 Market St. LLC, after his monthly rent was increased by nearly 13 percent, from $970 to $1,095.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board ruled in Breaux’s favor, stating that no certificate of occupancy had ever been issued for the sixth floor of the building, making his unit illegal and subject to rent control laws. Gall presented a certificate of occupancy to the court in his appeal in 2014, indicating the certificate should be backdated to 1991 — when the units first became live-work lofts.

We want to solve it now,\" Oakland resident Margaret Cunningham told the council, echoing concerns from other speakers that the impact fee would not help anyone in the city currently struggling to secure housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new ordinance permits the city to charge developers who want to build market-rate housing a one-time fee intended to help fund subsidized affordable housing. Previously, the city negotiated with developers on a case-by-case basis to determine if an impact fee would be paid and how much it would amount to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"rI29AIKJlnO341ucoasOoALSYTD62uOD\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fee is determined based on the number of units in the development and differs based on three geographic zones. The ordinance will also usher in smaller transportation and capital improvement fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The impact fee ordinance was originally proposed in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.policylink.org/sites/default/files/pl-report-oak-housing-070715.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">report on the city's housing crisis\u003c/a> prepared by Oakland’s Department of Housing and Community Development and social-equity action group \u003ca href=\"https://www.policylink.org/\" target=\"_blank\">PolicyLink\u003c/a> last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the impact fee is the first action the council has taken to directly address the city’s affordable housing shortage, the city administrator’s office expects it will only fund about 600 new affordable units over the next 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If all goes according to the city’s plan, the measure will take affect on Sept. 1.\u003c/p>\n\n",

We want to solve it now,\" Oakland resident Margaret Cunningham told the council, echoing concerns from other speakers that the impact fee would not help anyone in the city currently struggling to secure housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new ordinance permits the city to charge developers who want to build market-rate housing a one-time fee intended to help fund subsidized affordable housing. Previously, the city negotiated with developers on a case-by-case basis to determine if an impact fee would be paid and how much it would amount to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

People often put their green waste inside plastic bags, which cannot be broken down into compost. In fact, later in the process, plastic bags become a huge nuisance for composters -- but we’ll get to that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another challenge in the collection process: Some green waste is truly gnarly.

All of the green waste is loaded into much larger trucks, called transfer trucks, and carted off to Redwood Landfill 45 miles away in Novato.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Magic (and chemistry!) really start at the landfill, which despite its name is primarily a composting facility. When the transfer trucks arrive, they dump all the green waste onto an asphalt pad that's larger than a football field. Asphalt doesn't absorb water, which is critical, because compost piles need a lot of water to effectively decompose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next the green waste is passed through a machine that grinds the materials into smaller bits. Now the green waste is starting to look more like dirt or soil, and less like a heaping pile of leaves, Christmas trees, melon rinds, coffee cups and mysterious lumps of someone's unfinished dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this is where the plastic bags come back to haunt us. When a plastic bag is mixed with green waste, the grinder spits out tiny pieces of plastic that can pollute the air, be accidentally eaten by birds, and otherwise wreak havoc on the environment.
