    10 years into seismic retrofitting, it' s good to see 45% (335) of soft story buildings with completed retrofits. BUT 22% (162) have not taken any action at all toward compliance. How can the 162 noncompliant owners be induced to bring their investments up to safety standards? Perhaps, posting their building addresses online at the city's website to alert potential renters/occupants? And exactly what are SWOF EXEMPT Buildings, up from 85 in the last reporting period to the current 94?
