conclusion of my presentation. do you have any questions? >> your calculations are based upon an old survey, an old set of drawings. have you done any current confirmations. >> let me correct that. the is survey was done by the application to the current project. >> you also indicated elevations from the previous drawing ? >> the drawing only showed the building section heights. the survey includes the slab and there is building height and also the grades around the property in terms of elevation. i took the grade and figured
8:01 pm
out what the elevation changes are figured out the grades for the four sides and determined and added the two sides up and divided the two by the average. >> did you determine the data was the same from that point to now? >> what mr. sanchez says that my interpretation of the points to calculate the height is correct. >> i understand that. i'm talking about the data of elevation and the original drawings say was on the slab and on the roof versus the data that you now have on the current top of slab on the ground floor, are they the same data? >> yes. >> okay. thank you. >> mr. barclay? i think this
8:02 pm
has already been made clear but to clarify for the record. i want to thank scott san chez in the planning department for agreeing to reevaluate. that's all i have. thank you. >> first i would like to clarify the address. originally this was 132nd avenue, it became el camino del mar not by voice. the board of supervisors decided that every single property with frontage on el camino del mar shall use el
8:03 pm
camino del mar as the address. subsequent ly the address changed. it's not our choice. i think when it comes to the height limit, they are a lot of data in the evaluation in the record of the planning department sections, drawings that exist to support the department's decision that it's an accurate building that is within the height limit. so i don't have any objection to work with the department to go through all of those and present a very detail analysis to this board. >> thank you. >> are you finished?
8:04 pm
>> yes. >> all right. the addresses have nothing to do with how the height limit is. the parameters of the site. okay. >> that's correct. >> mr. sanchez? >> scott sanchez planning department. i just want to reiterate that we are more than happy to review the calculations for the height and confirming again that the street address even where the door is located has no bearing on the section of 20.12 and that they can choose their frontage. i apologize to mr. garfunkle that he did send me an e-mail. it's been a very busy week and i did not get a chance to review the matter
8:05 pm
before today. >> mr. sanchez, in terms of the amount of time given, everyone has pressing other work, would two weeks be enough time for to you sort out the calculation? >> no, unfortunately the staff planer who process this is out on vacation. i'm going to be out myself next week. it might be toward the end of june or july if that's acceptable. >> okay. >> bear in mind. there has been too many meetings on this case. i don't want this to drag out. if we need to have absolute verification on the height, i would like to have a decision made as soon as possible. >> is there an issue with the timing in july? >> i have a problem with
8:06 pm
anything that is passed july 7 because i'm scheduled for rotator cuff surgery so i won't be around. >> unfortunately our meeting calendar that we have an available june 5, 19 and the next one is july 10th. june 19? okay. >> not a pretty calendar for us. it's not. >> okay. if you would move it to whatever date you choose i would ask for to you specify if anything you with a want to report back to the board. >> i would like the pages on the calculation. we are going
8:07 pm
to allow very little time for actual arguments. three minutes. two pages from all sides. yes. >> simultaneous filing? >> given the appellant raised this issue and the department is going to address it, i think we should do a submittal response at some point. >> my concern is the amount of time that the planning department has asked for to prepare this information won't give this sufficient time. >> if we can submit scott sanchez's plan would be ideal. would it be two pages written with attached plans? >> yes. anything that would help us understand the height issue. >> okay. >> i would like the hearing to be solely focused on the height issue. that is the only issue that was raised tonight. no new
8:08 pm
issues. >> so, are you then open to simultaneous filing. >> simultaneous is fine, the thursday prior to the hearing. >> okay. >> you are represented, yes. do you want to speak to your client? >> okay. all right. i will make a motion to continue the matter to get the planning department to get the calculations on the height issue. we'll continue to june 19. submissions is limited to two pages of briefing to be exchanged the thursday before the hearing and the sole issue that will be discussed at the hearing would be related today -- related to the height of the building. >> can i raise an issue to this point to the party. when we
8:09 pm
heard this case, a lot of other issues were brought up. i would like to ask the parties that we are only focused on the current proposal and nothing else. >> before we take a vote, i should probably make a disclosure that it just occurred to me, miss barclay's firm is a donor to my organization which is a non-profit, the organization that employees me that has sponsored an event that has passed. about the it certainly is not a big donation in relation to the organization's budget is what i'm trying to say and it certainly wouldn't affect my employment and has no effect on my vote tonight. just to put that on the record. i have never met miss barclay before tonight. >> okay. thank you. >> we have a motion from the president to continue this matter to june 19, 2013, the
8:10 pm
public hearing has been held. additional briefing is allowed at 2 pages per party with extra exhibits attachments. all update briefs are due one thursday prior to hearing and this continuances to allow time for the planning department to recalculate the subject building. on that motion commissioner fong, lazarus, hurtado, the vote is 5-0. this matter is continued to june 19. >> we have no further business. this meeting is adjourned. >>
