These liabilities could cost millions of dollars, said Ronen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s been happening at this negotiation is that Galería has been compromising and compromising,” Ronen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan Phan of GBA Realty said both sides have been looking for compromise. “The owner group has been diligently trying to seek out a common ground as well,” he said. “We want them to be here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phan said that the owners he represents had not asked for significant rent increases in the many years that the Galería has been in the space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have been compromising for many years,” Phan said of the owners. “They feel that they’ve contributed a lot to the community by not asking a lot from the Galería.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, however, Phan said the landlord is asking for a rent increase because the cost of maintaining sidewalks, sewer lines and trees has skyrocketed in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With all this cost piling up, the only option is to ask the Galería to help out with the improvement costs,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a show of friendliness, Phan said the owners recently withdrew the three-day pay-or-vacate notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11702345\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11702345 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33481_20181029_104513-qut-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Galería de la Raza is located at 2857 24th St. in San Francisco’s Mission district. \u003ccite>(Marissa Shieh)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>No matter how the situation shakes out, Ronen pointed out that the building is part of the Calle 24 Special Use District.

"content": "\u003cp>After years of economic boom, voters in San Francisco, East Palo Alto and Mountain View will decide this November if big corporations should be taxed to help pay for issues that have only gotten worse as business has grown: housing and transportation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business groups against the tax hikes argue the measures would give companies a reason to expand in other cities, or even worse, leave the region altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters however, counter that corporate philanthropy has been insufficient to take on the Bay Area’s problems like homelessness and transportation. They argue that a steady funding stream must be created to pay for services.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘There’s two kinds of people in San Francisco. There’s people who are willing to give and always opening their hearts and their wallets to support whatever society needs. And there’s those who won’t give at all no matter what.’\u003ccite>Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“With all of these business taxes right now, there’s certainly an inspiration to take advantage of the enormous prosperity we have in the region, while we have it,” said Molly Turner, a lecturer at the UC Berkeley Haas School of Business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate has touched a nerve in San Francisco, where a proposed tax hike has sparked a clash of tech titans, divided political allies and led the city’s new mayor to make the most controversial decision of her tenure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition C would double the city’s homeless services budget by raising the gross receipts tax on annual revenue above $50 million that companies bring in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The average half-percent increase in the tax would raise roughly $300 million annually to help get homeless San Franciscans off of the street. Half of the money would go toward long-term fixes, like supportive housing, while the other half would go toward more immediate assistance, like shelters, mental health services and rental assistance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We just got this massive tax break from [President] Trump. The corporate rate went from 35 percent all the way down to 21 percent,” said Jennifer Friedenbach, executive director of the Coalition on Homelessness, which sponsored the measure. “In order to address the systemic crises we need ongoing revenue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As thousands of people sleep on the street each night, most San Franciscans would be quick to name homelessness as a top issue facing the city. Less clear is what voters are willing to do to address the problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last two ballot measures that proposed a tax hike to raise money for the homeless — a 2016 sales tax increase and a real estate tax on the ballot last June — both failed. Proposition C differs because it would dedicate all the revenue it raises to homeless programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we’ve seen in the past is tinkering, and I don’t think voters have a lot of patience for that,” said Friedenbach. “They want to see big change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYKxFrMkzKA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s estimated that 300 to 400 companies would pay the Proposition C tax hike. These corporations already pay 57 percent of the business taxes collected by San Francisco, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://sfcontroller.org/sites/default/files/Documents/Economic%20Analysis/hgrt_economic_impact_final.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> from the Office of Economic Analysis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s on top of the increased costs necessary to recruit and retain workers in the region, said Jim Lazarus, senior vice president of public policy at the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At some point the straw breaks the camel’s back and some chief financial officer says, ‘When the lease comes up we’re leaving town,’ ” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similar warnings from Amazon pushed Seattle’s City Council to abandon a newly enacted business tax earlier this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But San Francisco’s largest private employer, Salesforce, has taken a markedly different stance on Proposition C. The cloud computing giant has donated $4.7 million to the Yes on C campaign, with another $1 million coming from CEO Marc Benioff. This despite Benioff’s assertion that the company stands to pay millions more under the tax proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10467228\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10467228\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-800x528.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"528\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-800x528.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-400x264.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-1440x950.jpg 1440w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-1180x779.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-768x507.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/03/457215846-320x211.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff pictured at company conference in October 2014. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To Benioff, the debate over Proposition C is black and white, and CEOs who aren’t for the measure aren’t being socially responsible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I’ve found is there’s two kinds of people in San Francisco,” he told KQED. “There’s people who are willing to give and always opening their hearts and their wallets to support whatever society needs. And there’s those who won’t give at all no matter what.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Implied in that second group was Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who Benioff traded jabs with over Proposition C.

C campaign. It didn’t make much of a dent. Thanks to Benioff, the “yes” side has raked in four times as much in contributions, according to \u003ca href=\"https://sfethics.org/ethics/2018/03/campaign-finance-dashboards-june-5-2018-and-november-6-2018-elections.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">data\u003c/a> from the San Francisco Department of Elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Benioff’s stance on Proposition C has also caused a fissure with a political ally: San Francisco Mayor London Breed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Benioff said the need for sustained homeless funding is best illustrated by a call he recently got from the mayor. Breed was looking for a donation of $8 million to acquire a site that could be used for affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s out of money. Her budget was fully maxed,” Benioff said. “The city has these shovel-ready projects ready to go and we can directly address these homeless people if we have more directed funding.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Breed disagrees, not only with the nature of the call — she said she asked Benioff for the immediate donation because a budget supplemental would have taken too long to secure the units — but with the idea that San Francisco can hike taxes for homeless services without consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Can big business pay more to support this? Yes, they can,” Breed told KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But things like a ballot measure need to be handled more responsibly,” she added. “Making sure that as we try and tax, that there aren’t the unintended consequences of job loss for middle-income residents. I mean manufacturing, retail, those are things that are important to San Francisco.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11690711\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11690711\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-800x552.jpg\" alt=\"San Francisco Mayor London Breed.\" width=\"800\" height=\"552\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-800x552.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-160x110.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-1020x704.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-1200x828.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-1180x814.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-960x663.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-240x166.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-375x259.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/LondonBreed-520x359.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">San Francisco Mayor London Breed. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The city’s economic analysis of Proposition C finds that retail would be the sector most at risk of job loss, but that the tax’s overall impact on jobs would be insignificant: an estimated loss of 0.1 percent of all jobs in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brimming beneath Breed’s warning of job flight, and her stated desire for the city to get a better handle on how it spends the $300 million already dedicated to homelessness, seems to be a political frustration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor was elected in June on a promise to address the crisis. If Proposition C passes and doubles the city’s homeless budget, it will likely be Breed — not Benioff or the homeless advocates who wrote the measure — who will be judged for its results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to make sure that I’m being held accountable for the decisions I make,” she said. “Not the decisions that other people are making.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there’s a chance the heated debate over Proposition C could actually stretch past November. Supporters are hoping that a recent state Supreme Court ruling will allow the citizens’ initiative to pass with a majority vote. Historically, local measures that directed funding to a specific source, like homeless services, required a two-thirds vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tax measures in Mountain View and East Palo Alto have come with significantly fewer political fireworks, but also reflect a shift toward demanding greater corporate responsibility to take on the Bay Area’s vexing housing and transportation problems.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11647955\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11647955 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS378_Google_082411-800x504.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"504\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A sign is posted outside Google headquarters Jan. 21, 2010, in Mountain View, California. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Measure HH in East Palo Alto would tax large commercial office space at a rate of $2.50 per square foot to pay for affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters are hoping to capitalize on the recent growth of Amazon in the city, and Facebook’s expansion in nearby Menlo Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just trying to protect our community and have a fair share that will improve the lives of more people,” said Mayor Ruben Abrica. “We’re also trying to be proactive because we know that other development is going to take place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mountain View’s tax is more heavily directed toward a single company: Google.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposed “head tax” in Measure P would tax companies for each employee, with larger companies paying higher rates.

"content": "\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor London Breed took some time recently to chat with KQED's Guy Marzorati about her first 100 days in office and what she's done so far to address the city's ongoing homeless and housing challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also explained why she opposes Proposition C, a hotly contested November ballot measure that would fund housing and homelessness services in the city by raising taxes on certain businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below is an excerpt of the interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: You successfully pushed for a bill at the state level that will expand the conservatorship program here in S.F. and allow the county to take responsibility for homeless residents who have severe mental health issues. That state law goes into effect in January. Are you confident the city will have a plan in place to deal with those folks by then and also residential treatment beds available at that time?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: I am more than confident, and I’m excited about what we are planning in order to address this major challenge. This is a huge victory for our city, and right now we’re developing the legislation to send to the Board of Supervisors to opt into this particular program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other part of that is we’ve identified locations to increase the number of mental health stabilization beds in S.F. to meet what we expect to be the need so that they have places to go. We can’t “conserve” anyone unless we have a place for them to go. And that’s what this is about. Because people are frustrated when they see someone who clearly needs help, who is clearly having, unfortunately, a mental breakdown, and jail is not the place for them to be when they need to get better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s really about getting them into the right place, into a treatment facility for the purposes of developing a long-term plan of action to help them get stable, to help them get housed, to help them get the services they need in order to be in a better situation than what we see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: Voters in November are going to vote on Proposition C in the city to bring in more revenue for homeless services. You oppose that measure. If that’s not the answer, do you and your administration have an alternate plan to bring in new revenues to address this crisis?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: I think what's important with what we do with the over $300 million that we are spending for homeless services, including an additional $60 million that I have been able to add to the budget this past fiscal year, is that there is a level of accountability. We use a lot of the money to pay for subsidies to house people. There’s a lot of the money, of course, that’s used for supportive services. And right now we have just started this process I’m really excited about where we have a coordinated entry system for people who are struggling with homelessness in order to get them the help and support they need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal to use this system is to follow people, to understand what the challenges are, and to make sure that we’re able to track the resources that are being used and how we’re able to help someone. From my perspective, we need to understand what we’re doing now, whether or not we’re making the right investments and, more importantly, what is our long-term plan of action to address these issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a problem bigger than just San Francisco. We have to look at regional strategies, we have to look at what we are doing now and the investments we’re making now, redirecting those funds. Can big business pay more to support this? Yes, they can. But things like a ballot measure need to be handled more responsibly, where you’re bringing everyone to the table for the purposes of providing input and looking at the financial data, looking at jobs, looking at all of those things and how they play a role in making sure that as we try and tax, that there aren’t the unintended consequences of job loss for middle-income residents. I mean, manufacturing, retail, those are things that are important to San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And people keep talking about this gap between the haves and the haves-not. Well, yeah, the haves on the whole top level can definitely afford to pay a lot more. But I want to make sure as mayor, because I have to be the one to implement anything that is taxed or the voters initiate, I want to make sure that I can promise that this will deliver the results they’re looking for. And at this time, that's where we're struggling with the challenges of Prop C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: That goes right into my next question. Is it a concern of yours that ultimately you’re going to have to be the one accountable for the spending as it relates to the homeless crisis?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: Yeah, and I think that people elected me in order to address this problem. This is at the top of everyone’s list because it is a problem in San Francisco. But I think in order to address it, we have to understand it better. We have to understand where our resources are already going, and we have to make better investments now. So that’s what I’m trying to do as mayor.

So what are ways in which we can try to help people into treatment? This is one of the most effective ways to do that.

That state law goes into effect in January. Are you confident the city will have a plan in place to deal with those folks by then and also residential treatment beds available at that time?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: I am more than confident, and I’m excited about what we are planning in order to address this major challenge. This is a huge victory for our city, and right now we’re developing the legislation to send to the Board of Supervisors to opt into this particular program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other part of that is we’ve identified locations to increase the number of mental health stabilization beds in S.F. to meet what we expect to be the need so that they have places to go. We can’t “conserve” anyone unless we have a place for them to go. And that’s what this is about. Because people are frustrated when they see someone who clearly needs help, who is clearly having, unfortunately, a mental breakdown, and jail is not the place for them to be when they need to get better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s really about getting them into the right place, into a treatment facility for the purposes of developing a long-term plan of action to help them get stable, to help them get housed, to help them get the services they need in order to be in a better situation than what we see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: Voters in November are going to vote on Proposition C in the city to bring in more revenue for homeless services. You oppose that measure. If that’s not the answer, do you and your administration have an alternate plan to bring in new revenues to address this crisis?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: I think what's important with what we do with the over $300 million that we are spending for homeless services, including an additional $60 million that I have been able to add to the budget this past fiscal year, is that there is a level of accountability. We use a lot of the money to pay for subsidies to house people. There’s a lot of the money, of course, that’s used for supportive services. And right now we have just started this process I’m really excited about where we have a coordinated entry system for people who are struggling with homelessness in order to get them the help and support they need.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal to use this system is to follow people, to understand what the challenges are, and to make sure that we’re able to track the resources that are being used and how we’re able to help someone. From my perspective, we need to understand what we’re doing now, whether or not we’re making the right investments and, more importantly, what is our long-term plan of action to address these issues.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a problem bigger than just San Francisco. We have to look at regional strategies, we have to look at what we are doing now and the investments we’re making now, redirecting those funds. Can big business pay more to support this? Yes, they can. But things like a ballot measure need to be handled more responsibly, where you’re bringing everyone to the table for the purposes of providing input and looking at the financial data, looking at jobs, looking at all of those things and how they play a role in making sure that as we try and tax, that there aren’t the unintended consequences of job loss for middle-income residents. I mean, manufacturing, retail, those are things that are important to San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And people keep talking about this gap between the haves and the haves-not. Well, yeah, the haves on the whole top level can definitely afford to pay a lot more. But I want to make sure as mayor, because I have to be the one to implement anything that is taxed or the voters initiate, I want to make sure that I can promise that this will deliver the results they’re looking for. And at this time, that's where we're struggling with the challenges of Prop C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: That goes right into my next question. Is it a concern of yours that ultimately you’re going to have to be the one accountable for the spending as it relates to the homeless crisis?\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Breed\u003c/strong>: Yeah, and I think that people elected me in order to address this problem. This is at the top of everyone’s list because it is a problem in San Francisco. But I think in order to address it, we have to understand it better. We have to understand where our resources are already going, and we have to make better investments now. So that’s what I’m trying to do as mayor. Before I ask for another commitment, I want to make sure that as I’m being held accountable, it’s for the decisions I make, not the decisions that other people are making.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marzorati: You talk about getting a greater understanding of the current homeless population and how they're being served in the city.

"headTitle": "The California Report | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>The San Francisco Housing Authority is short about $25 million, a funding gap the city must fill by the end of the year to keep thousands of low-income families in their homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials learned of the deficit after a recent audit of the agency uncovered a major accounting error. Thinking it had a significantly larger budget, the Housing Authority said it spent millions on housing subsidies for extremely low-income families in neighborhoods like Chinatown and the Tenderloin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There was some inaccurate reporting of Housing Authority expenditures,\" said Kate Hartley, director of the Mayor's Office of Housing and Community Development. \"Based upon what was inaccurate reporting, the Housing Authority moved forward with some fantastic work, which we were very thrilled about, which was subsidizing more units for homeless households and bringing on more households with rental assistance who were extremely low income. So, they did all this great work thinking they had the reserves in place to cover it, and we realize now that, in fact, that wasn't the case.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency now finds it doesn’t have the money needed to continue paying for the roughly 11,000 Section 8 housing vouchers it distributes to residents who rely on heavy rent subsidies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday though, Mayor London Breed and other city leaders expressed confidence that, despite the major shortfall, they would come up with the funds in time to prevent any residents from being displaced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Breed, who lived in the city’s public housing for 20 years, stressed the need for real reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For many years, Housing Authority has always been, unfortunately, dysfunctional,” she said at a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the Natalie Gubb Commons affordable housing complex near Rincon Hill. “So, it’s time to kind of take a different role at making sure that it’s managed properly and there’s real accountability.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For decades, the authority faced severe funding shortages and serious management and maintenance problems. In 2013, then-Mayor Ed Lee replaced nearly all Housing Authority commissioners and handed over most of the city’s public housing complexes to private operators. Since then, the city has transferred ownership of about 3,500 public housing units in 29 buildings to nonprofits like Mercy Housing and the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartley said to close the current gap, about $7 million will be pulled from funding the Housing Authority was planning to use to pay for repairs at Potrero Hill and Sunnydale public housing complexes. Much of the rest, she hoped, would be covered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re not worried about our ability to provide the necessary funding,” she said, adding that the shortfall was solely the result of honest accounting mistakes. \"Nothing that was done was illegal or fraudulent or anything like that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While HUD does typically cover funding gaps for local housing authorities at the end of the year, this large an amount is highly unusual, said Jerome Brown, general deputy assistant secretary at HUD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will make this work because we have to make this work,” he said, noting that the short-term plan is to get the agency through the year so that landlords are paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the longer term, he added, “What do you do to make sure that this doesn’t happen again?”\u003c/p>\n\n",

So, they did all this great work thinking they had the reserves in place to cover it, and we realize now that, in fact, that wasn't the case.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency now finds it doesn’t have the money needed to continue paying for the roughly 11,000 Section 8 housing vouchers it distributes to residents who rely on heavy rent subsidies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday though, Mayor London Breed and other city leaders expressed confidence that, despite the major shortfall, they would come up with the funds in time to prevent any residents from being displaced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In 2013, then-Mayor Ed Lee replaced nearly all Housing Authority commissioners and handed over most of the city’s public housing complexes to private operators. Since then, the city has transferred ownership of about 3,500 public housing units in 29 buildings to nonprofits like Mercy Housing and the Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hartley said to close the current gap, about $7 million will be pulled from funding the Housing Authority was planning to use to pay for repairs at Potrero Hill and Sunnydale public housing complexes. Much of the rest, she hoped, would be covered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re not worried about our ability to provide the necessary funding,” she said, adding that the shortfall was solely the result of honest accounting mistakes. \"Nothing that was done was illegal or fraudulent or anything like that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While HUD does typically cover funding gaps for local housing authorities at the end of the year, this large an amount is highly unusual, said Jerome Brown, general deputy assistant secretary at HUD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will make this work because we have to make this work,” he said, noting that the short-term plan is to get the agency through the year so that landlords are paid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the longer term, he added, “What do you do to make sure that this doesn’t happen again?”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
