DESCRIPTION:The San Francisco Housing Action Coalition (SFHAC) will host a panel 
 discussion with three new City Department leaders: John Rahaim, Director of 
 the Department of City Planning; Fred Blackwell, Executive Director of the 
 San Francisco Redevelopment Agency; and Isam Hasenin, Director of the 
 Department of Building Inspection. The panel will be moderated by Larry 
 Rosenthal, Executive Director of the Berkeley Program on Housing and Urban 
 Policy.\n\nOn Wednesday, April 2, from 7:30 am – 10:30 am these three new 
 leaders will share their vision for housing in San Francisco. This forum 
 will be held at the Mission Bay Conference Center.\n\nThe event follows a 
 highly successful public forum hosted by the SFHAC last March that 
 addressed the critical middle-income housing shortage that featured keynote 
 speaker former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros. The SFHAC hosts events 
 throughout the year that concentrate on key issues regarding housing in San 
 Francisco. The SFHAC plays an integral role in fostering discussion 
 surrounding the development of smart growth, transit-oriented development 
 and solutions to the City’s affordable housing crisis.\n\nThe SFHAC is a 
 membership-based non-profit working to create a pro-housing culture in San 
 Francisco. Started in 1998 as a small group of activists intent on changing 
 San Francisco’s dialogue around housing, it has grown to a broad-based, 
 73-member organization that has become a successful advocate for local 
 housing and smart-growth issues. Through its committees, SFHAC focuses on 
 endorsement of residential projects as well as housing policy and 
 legislation. Special emphasis is placed on transit-oriented development, 
 strong neighborhood planning and a moderate policy course that seeks to 
 balance many competing factions.\n\nThe SFHAC Housing Forum: A New 
 Generation of Housing Leaders will take place on Wednesday, April 2, 2008, 
 from 7:30 am – 10:30 am at the Mission Bay Conference Center located at 
 1675 Owens Street. Tickets for the event are free for SFHAC members and $10 
 per person for the general public. To RSVP for this event or to learn more,
