Date: Friday, March 30, 2012
To: Board of Commissioners
From: Henry A. Alvarez III, Executive Director
Re: Responses to Public Comment at Commission Meeting on March 22, 2012
Public Comment Regarding Tenants’ Associations:
Commenter Carol Flowra, President of the Tenant Association Board at 491 31st Avenue
indicated that she would like to see that Ms. Raimey be allowed to continue working with the
tenants in the building because Ms. Raimey has forged excellent rapport with them when she was
President of CCSD.
In addition, Commenter, Paul Currier, also spoke regarding Tenant Elections. He stated that
there have been many complaints about the Tenants’ Association (TA), including lack of proper
prior notification, lack of communication generally, and speculated that perhaps financing the
CCSD endeavor is questionable.
Staff Response:
On an ongoing basis, the Office of the General Council has overseen the legal requirements
and logistics to execute a fair election for the Tenants’ Association. The Housing Authority
investigates promptly any allegation of misconduct related to tenant association elections.
Tenant associations are also advised to contact Ms. Pamela Palpallatoc as she is responsible
for the overall operations of the Tenants’ Associations and liaises on behalf of Mr. Larsen,
General Council.
Public Comment Regarding Park Merced:
Commenter Helani Ting indicated that she is concerned that Park Merced Property Management
and Park Merced Owners are targeting low income tenants for eviction due to an upcoming
redevelopment of the property. She also stated that she thinks excellent progress has been made
by the SFHA management related to these aforementioned issues.
9
Commenter Lynn, resident of Park Merced inquired as to when the public might be able to
review information/documents related to Park Merced. How will members of the public be
informed and able to review associated documents and information?
Staff Response:
Management of the Authority met with Park Merced Management on Tuesday, March 6,
2012 and again on Friday, March 16, 2012 to review Ms. Ting’s file. In the meantime, Ms.
Ting is in no danger of an eviction and has a rent credit of $7,618. Park Merced denies that
their redevelopment will result in the eviction of any Section 8 recipient in good standing.
Lynn, however, is in the process of being evicted from Park Merced for failure to pay her
utilities. The Housing Authority provides Lynn with a utility allowance, so it does not cost
her anything to pay her utilities; she just needs to pass on the allowance to Park Merced,
which she has failed to do.
Public Comment Regarding Resident Advisory Board (RAB) Meetings:
Commenter Uzuri Green, secretary of the Public Housing Tenants Association, (PHTA),
indicated that the Resident Advisory Board Meetings (RAB that she has attended are very
informative. She inquired as to whether or not various Community Based Organizations,
(CBO’s) and other stakeholders are invited to participate in the RAB process.
Staff Response:
SFHA Management welcomes participation in the RAB process by CBO’s, other relevant
stakeholders, and appropriate external audiences that would enhance the RAB meetings.
Immediately after the Commission Meeting, SFHA Management contacted Ms. Green and
asked her to provide suggestions on potential stakeholders that can participate in
upcoming RAB meetings.

Memo
To: Henry Alvarez
From: Roger Crawford
Date: 4/6/2012
Re: Report on Healani Ting (Section 8 Recipient at Park Merced)
Issue
Ms. Healani Ting, a resident at Park Merced and a Section 8 recipient, has attended recent
Housing Authority commission meetings to complain that she was being charged too much
in rent by Park Merced. Ms. Ting believes that she is being charged too much in rent
because she is part of a group that has been vocal against Park Merced’s redevelopment
plans.
In particular, Ms. Ting believes that she is being charged too much in rent so that Park
Merced can evict her if she does not pay. Ms. Ting further believes that Park Merced would
like to remove and replace her with a tenant capable of paying higher rent when the
redevelopment is complete.
I was assigned to look into this issue.
Background
On January 26, 2012: Park Merced sent a letter to both the Housing Authority and Ms. Ting
regarding Ms. Ting’s rent.
According to the letter sent to the Housing Authority, Park Merced was indeed charging Ms.
Ting too much rent in error. Ms. Ting was improperly charged this amount for
approximately one year. Ms. Ting’s rent was therefore adjusted down from $1,308 per
month to $229. $229 is the amount Ms. Ting should pay.
On February 3, 2012: I met with management at Park Merced to discuss Ms. Ting.
According to management, Ms. Ting’s rent was adjusted retroactively. As Ms. Ting was
actually paying the $1308 per month for over twelve months, this left her with a credit in her
account of $7,618.
11
I sent a letter to Ms. Ting to inform her that her rent was being adjusted and I invited her to
contact me if needed.
Recent Developments
March 6, 2012: I met with Ms. Ting to discuss her rent credit. Ms. Ting insisted that the
amount of the credit in her account was too low and that Park Merced owed her more money.
Ms. Ting attempted to produce documentation to support her claims, but was unable to do so
during this meeting.
March 16, 2012: As a further accommodation to Ms. Ting, I again met with Park Merced
management regarding the rent credit in her account. Christina Zsolnay, an accountant for
Park Merced, was able to provide me with a detailed accounting that supports Ms. Ting is
owed only $7,618.
April 4, 2012: I again met with Ms. Ting. I let her know that Park Merced has detailed
documents supporting the amount of her rent credit. Ms. Ting believes that her rent credit
should be approximately $13,000. I let Ms. Ting know that she must provide documentation
to support her claim. We ended the meeting with Ms. Ting once again agreeing to search for
any records she has that support that she is owed $13,000, not $7,618.
If Ms. Ting is able to produce records that support she is owed $13,000, I will refer her back
Park Merced for the issue to be resolved.

B. Action Items
2. [Informational Presentation: Public Housing Annual Plan Process.] Presented
by: Linda Martin-Mason, Ombudsman, Office of the Ombudsman and
Communication
Linda Martin-Mason presented a Power Point Presentation explaining the annual plan
process.
Commissioner Saez asked Ms. Martin-Mason to list the stakeholders that would be
included under community advocates as well as the City departments and how does
that differ from the community based organization.
Ms. Martin-Mason provided examples of organizations that have been contacted in
addition to the differences between the various partners.
Commissioner Safai asked what was done differently with the City-Wide Council for
the tenants from previous years.
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that in the past for both the Public Housing and
Section 8 whoever wanted to attend RAB meetings were the RAB. However, HUD
recommends that if the PHA has a jurisdiction-wide council, the council should be
the RAB, which is what was done for the 2012 RAB.
Commissioner Safai asked why weren’t any of the RAB locations in the South-East
side of San Francisco where the majority of the Housing Authority residents reside.
Mrs. Martin-Mason replied that it was not intentional and that will be considered in
the future.
Commissioner Safai asked if there were any complaints received regarding locations
of meetings.
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that they have not received any complaints regarding
location.
President Rev. Amos Brown asked why the various locations weren’t considered.
24
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that in considering past complaints and suggestions,
the primary complaint was noise, never location. Thus, this year, the meetings were
scheduled to be in the same vicinity with different location that may be quieter.
Further, Mrs. Martin-Mason offered to update the schedule to include another site.
Commissioner Schwartz recommended that potential strategies for Hope SF sites be
included in the Annual Plan Process with sufficient time to provide for public
comment.
Mr. Alvarez explained how everything is accessible through the Housing Authority’s
new and improved website @ www.sfha.org. Mr. Alvarez also commended the
Ombudsman staff for the improvements made to the website.
Commissioner Allen asked if the RAB meetings have been well attended.
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that they have been well attended
Commissioner Allen complimented the website and asked if there is heavy traffic.
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that she was only aware of the facebook traffic, which
is linked to the website and that the facebook page had 611 hits in the past 7 days.
Commissioner Hunnicutt stated that the website looks beautiful and asked about
Housing Choice Voucher Program RAB application process in the past versus this
year.
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that in previous years, only the RAB from the year
prior was invited to attend. In 2012 an invitation to apply for the RAB was sent to all
Housing Choice Voucher Participants. The SFHA received 300 responses and
randomly selected 30 of the 300.
Commissioner Safai requested that the recommendations pertaining to preferences be
brought to the board before being finalized.
Public comment:
Commenter, Uzuri Green secretary of the PHTA, stated that she is learning a lot from
the RAB meetings. Ms. Green suggested the following for different locations of the
RAB meetings: Bayview: The Opera House, Potreo Hill: Neighborhood House,
Sunnydale: Boys & Girls Club. Ms. Green asked if there were any local stakeholders
such as the family Resource Center, The Neighborhood House, Salvation Army, and
Shiloh involved in the process.
Commenter, Lynn, resident at Park Merced asked when will the public be able to
review the proposals before they become final and how will that be disseminated in
terms to their response. Lynn also invited Mrs. Martin-Mason to visit Park Merced.

3. [Resolution Authorizing the Executive Director to enter into a Construction
Contract with Nicole’s Work Inc. for Fire Damage Restoration Services Phase II
at 350 Ellis Housing Development in an mount not to exceed $408,899 to be
reimbursed with property insurance proceeds.] Presented by: James Mark, Senior
Project Manager Housing Development & Modernization Department
Commissioner Saez asked who completed the first Phase of this work
Mr. Mark responded Ideal Restoration Services Inc. provided $25,000 worth of
dehumidifying abatement and cutting out the mold.
Commissioner Saez asked what was looked at differently between Transworld and
Nicole’s Work Inc.
Mr. Mark responded that it isn’t unusual to get scattered bids and construction
companies factors this in if the company really needs the work when their bids are
lower and want to keep workers busy in this economy.
Commissioner Safai asked what controls are in place in the bid to insure that the
Board will not be asked to approve a range of change orders to meet the true value of
what the project is to this contractor.
Mr. Mark responded that the bid amount is the construction amount which is usually
enforced and not changed because change orders delay projects.
Barbara Smith added that the SFHA conducts an independent cost estimate before the
projects are put out to bid and this bid is consistent with the independent cost
estimate of $450,000.
Commissioner Schwartz asked if this was a Lump Sum contract?
Mr. Mark replied that it is a Lump Sum contract.
Commissioner Allen asked if this will allow resident hiring.
Mr. Mark replied yes.
Motion: Commissioner Schwartz: Moved to adopt the resolution
Commissioner Allen: Seconded the motion
Vote: All approved
Item 7: Commissioners Comments
Commissioner Allen suggested the Alex Pitcher room in the South East City College
Campus for RAB meetings.
Commissioner Saez asked if there would be any time to review the process for
summer programs.
26
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that the SFHA is submitting applications to DCYF for
all summer lunch programs allowing DCYF to select which sites will host summer
lunch.
The Secretary explained that during the budget cuts summer programming was
excluded from the budget except for Park and Rec Summer Youth Activities
Mrs. Martin-Mason responded that she and Kyle Peterson have been working with
Park &Rec to figure out the best outreach to residents and in the next 30 days should
have further enrollment information.
The Secretary introduced Kyle Peterson as the returning Government liaison.
Commissioner Safai asked for report on recycling efforts at all of the developments
and whether there are any recycling programs with tenant involvement.
Commissioner Safai commented that he attended the Good Jobs Green Jobs
Conference in L.A. there were many job opportunities as well as opportunities to
build social equity, career path development and energy conservation.
Commissioner Safai requested that staff provide him with the number of evictions in
Park Merced to date.
Commissioner Safai asked the Secretary to invite Olsen lee from the Mayor’s Office
of Housing to discuss which nonprofits are proposing CDBG grants that intend to
serve directly or indirectly Public Housing residents. Residents want to hear
directly from the Mayor’s Office of Housing and the Mayor’s Office of
Redevelopment on what nonprofits are being funded to provide employment
opportunities to residents.
Commissioner Schwartz commended staff for the website and asked if there will be
a waitlist shown on the site and will people be able to apply for Housing online.
Secretary Alvarez responded that all responses to commissioner Schwartz’ questions
will be reported the second week of April

SUMMARY:
In response to the Commission’s request, the Mayor’s Office of Housing has provided the

Creating opportunity for socially and economically isolated San Franciscans requires a
multifaceted and comprehensive approach. San Francisco has determined that the optimum way
to address the City’s priority challenges is to work towards a set of five interconnected,
multidisciplinary goals that cross program areas and utilize leveraged strategies both internally
and across multiple City departments. Funding for these strategies will be coordinated across
City departments, so that HUD funds can be maximized in those areas that are both of highest
priority to MOH/OEWD and where HUD funds can provide the maximum benefit in terms of
unmet needs and scarce resources.
These five goals are:
Goal 1: Families and individuals are healthy and economically self-sufficient
Goal 2: Neighborhoods and communities are strong, vibrant and stable
Goal 3: Formerly homeless individuals and families are stable, supported and live in long-term
housing
Goal 4: Families and individuals have safe, healthy and affordable housing
Goal 5: Public housing developments that were severely distressed are thriving mixed-income
communities
The City has also identified vulnerable populations that are at special risk for being multiply
affected by the social and economic problems that are facing San Francisco. These groups
include:
Seniors;
Persons with disabilities;
Persons with HIV/AIDS;
Disconnected transitional age youth;
Victims/survivors of violence and family violence;
Re-entry population;
Public housing residents; and
Disconnected LGBT individuals.
Services and strategies must accordingly be designed to address the unique needs and concerns
of these populations in order to maximize their effectiveness.

BACKGROUND
Historically, the five largest SFHA family public housing sites (Alice Griffith, Hunters View,
Westbrook, Potrero Terrace & Annex, and Sunnydale) have been negatively impacted by
elevated trash levels throughout the course of the weekend. The increased levels of trash are due
to several impacting factors.
First, resident populations are higher during the weekend as residents are not at work, school,
and other weekly activities. Second, resident activities and celebrations occur most often during
weekends creating an increased influx of trash. Lastly, illegal dumping is most likely to occur at
SFHA sites when SFHA staff are not on-site, which would be nights and weekends.
While trash rates increase during the weekend, SFHA does not have assigned weekend
landscaping and trash staff assigned to respond to and offset high trash rates. By not having a
weekend staffing schedule that would be able to respond to the high weekend trash rates, the
properties become challenged with overflowing and spilling trash bins, windblown trash
throughout the properties, and unsatisfactory landscaping conditions for SFHA properties.
To respond to the ongoing concern related to weekend trash levels at SFHA sites, DPW will be
expanding the existing 7501 Apprenticeship Program to provide landscaping and trash service
Thursday through Monday at five SFHA sites; Alice Griffith, Hunters View, Westbrook, Potrero
Terrace & Annex, and Sunnydale. The apprenticeship program will create six full-time
benefitted employment positions for SFHA residents that will pay $14.28 per hour.
DPW will provide a Packer and a Lumper on weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) to go to the
SFHA’s housing developments and pick up trash and other items that are on the streets. DPW
will also provide a supervisor to supervise the work of six housing authority residents, to be
employed by DPW, to pick up trash from beautification projects and perform general labor work
at SFHA’s developments Thursday through Monday (including weekends) on a weekly
basis. The employees will begin as Apprentices and end up graduating as Journeymen at the end
of the two-year apprenticeship.
