4 point of clarification, are you suggesting that proposal a the condition? vice president garcia: yes. commissioner hwang: so no hinge on the door. vice president garcia: i would absolutely entertain that. commissioner hwang: i am just asking if that was part of your condition. i am not adding to it, just asking. vice president garcia: whether it was going to be permanently closed and work, or some device on the door to ascertain, or make certain rather that it is closed as much as possible. commissioner fung: commissioners, adding conditions requires four votes. vice president garcia: true.

president goh: that is why i suggested may be entertaining commissioner fung's motion. vice president garcia: then i'd agree with you. commissioner fung: i would like to move to revoke the permit. secretary pacheco: so we have a motion from commissioner fung to revoke the permit. director goldstein: on the basis that it does not adequately address the noise affecting the neighbors? ok. secretary pacheco: to revoke its permit on the basis that the neighbors' noise concerns are not adequately addressed. on that motion to revoke, president goh, vice president

garcia, commissioner peterson, commissioner hwang. thank you. the vote is 3-2 to revoke the permit. the city charter requires four votes to overturn any department item, so without motion, this would be upheld as is with no new conditions. vice president garcia: the motion would be what was discussed earlier, with the exception of a first condition, which i do not have in front of me, from the planning department, and requiring, and i would ask even though he is against having this permit go forward, i would ask commissioner fung, who is an architect, to say which door, even though it may not be effective, which door would be the most effective. which type of door.

commissioner fung: a solid door. vice president garcia: how would it open and close? commissioner fung: you know, i am sure that the bar and restaurant operation would like a door that operates, a double acting door, one that swings both ways. the problem with the those is that the type of hardware for the self closing on that is very limited, in terms of just being a combination hinge and closer, and those are very weak and how they'd use the door. president goh: commissioner fung, what about the idea that was raised about a vestibule door? the two-sided door, a door that

has some space in between it, once it opens. commissioner fung: that is creating a vestibule, and in that case, it acts as a sound track. i think they use them in the zoo, do they not? commissioner fung: i do not know. commissioner garcia's motion. vice president garcia: i think that would take space from inside the bar. i do not know how much of the concern is that. how about the handicapped doors, where you press a button to enter or go out. commissioner fung: those only open in one direction. vice president garcia: i understand that, but you could still press from each side to have it open in one direction.

commissioner fung: those also close very slowly. the longer the door stays open, the more there will be potential noise problems. if -- if you would, commissioner

garcia, accept the modification of condition one, to the point where one door is operable -- vice president garcia: which sorta has some aspect of compromise a. commissioner fung: yes, and that door whenever a closer built into it which is adjustable to the point -- there are certain codes related to the pressure, the resistance that a door has an opening and closing. and i would recommend then that the door that is most westerly be that operable door, with self closers, with it is in a double

acting position or not. vice president garcia: and could replace some sort of restriction such that -- it would be so hard to enforce, but it will still have the language of their, maybe a notice of special restriction or something, that when people are not coming in and out of that door, that door is to be closed, and -- commissioner fung: we did state that if there is no hold-open device on it. vice president garcia: you are not allowed to propping open. do you need greater clarification for the motion, victor? mr. pacheco? director goldstein: i just want

to make sure that the department of building inspection and understand that as far as the self closing door and hinges, they are the ones to be enforcing that, so i just want to make sure that they'll understand what it is that would be required. vice president garcia: commissioner fung, i do not want to put words in his mouth. these are apparently pressurized, so you can vary the rate at which they close. >> department of building inspection. there are several requirements for doors, depending on what purpose they serve. there is maximum and minimum force, and depending on the location of the door, it may be self closing or automatic closing. those are generally terms that we use for fire doors, off and just for clarification, it closes upon activation of a smoke detector or alarm. the self closing door is normally closed, and it would close automatically, so it is in

a normally closed position, and then they have the hardware. and just to clarify, a double at the door, which will swing in 180 degrees, we see them a lot in restaurants, but there is a limitation with a certain occupant load, like around 150 or something, for safety. director goldstein: so just to restate this, to uphold a permit and that the planning department conditions remain in effect except for item a, that the permit holders proposal a in the brief most recently submitted, dated september 15, be implemented, and that is that the most westerly door be the offer will door and be home with self closing hinges. is that accurate? commissioner fung: yes. director goldstein: --

president goh: director goldstein, i do not have -- director goldstein: i can provide you with a copy of that. commissioner hwang: the last page. president goh: i have got it. on the front. president goh: and then, item d, the patio door would close at 10:00 p.m., and the bifold doors shall remain fully closed, and that should include the door we are speaking about now.

right? vice president garcia: yes, i cannot find those conditions. do you want to just read them? does any other commissioner want to review that? president goh: would you like made it -- like me to read them? i can read them into the record, if you want. vice president garcia: does anybody want that? commissioner fung: i think in your motion, that there is one operable door, so wherever there is reference to multiple bifold doors, that would be modified. vice president garcia: right. president goh: i think that is in a, because it talks about the open door, but i think that item

d is inconsistent with your motion. vice president garcia: yes, so we would just strike the second sentence of d. secretary pacheco: is the board ordering the sealing of these doors? commissioner fung: permanently shut. vice president garcia: i am glad we are doing this. i think at some point in these various hearings we have had on this issue, item h, commissioners, has language to do with the liaison office, and i think at some point, supervisor farrell's office offer to be that liaison. i am sure they are not going to want to hear from -- without putting a lot of pressure on the

brickyard and the gentleman, so if we can incorporate some type of language that would incorporate having that liaison office person being from supervisor farrell's office? they have already said they would do that. director goldstein: i do not know if we have the authority to do that. vice president garcia: then i will leave it to the good faith of the gentleman. director goldstein: you can put it there that there be such a person. commissioner fung: it is already in there. vice president garcia: i always had a problem with that. director goldstein: it could be someone other than that person. vice president garcia: without specifying that it could be somebody in commissioner farrell"s office.

ok, someone other than any owner of the brickyard president goh: -- of the brickyard. president goh: i have a question. what happens if the door is left open? what is it going to be? mr. sanchez, do you have any thoughts? >> thank you. scott sanchez, planning department. any violations better authorized in required by this board would be a violation, and we would do our best to enforce that, including issuing notices of violation and penalty, which could then be appealed back to this board. president goh: we started this evening in public comment with somebody who claimed that a condition of this commission was

violated. ok. vice president garcia: and before the roll was called on the motion, i do not know exactly how to do this, but i think we have done things like this before. i would request that if it has not already been done so that any violations in the past that should have resulted in a fine to the brickyard be looked into and strictly enforced. been like having started the debt without profit permitting. i am sure they are the have taken care of that, but just to be sure. director goldstein: commissioners, do you need the motion restated? president goh: yes, please. director goldstein: i believe the motion is to uphold a permit on the condition that the planning department conditions of approval be upheld except for item a and the second sentence

of item d, that the permit holder's pose of a, in his brief from september 15, 2 delfín 11, be implemented, and that the westernmost door be operable door and hong with self closing hinges, and then finally, the person be someone other than the owner of the brickyard or an owner of the brickyard -- september 15, 2007. my apologies. planning commission. call the roll. secretary pacheco: on that motion with all of the conditions as read into the record, and it was commissioner fung's motion -- vice president garcia's motion, on that motion,

commissioner fung, president goh, commissioner peterson, commissioner hwang, and thinking. the vote is 5-0. the permit is upheld with all of those conditions. director goldstein: thank you. president goh, there is no further business. president goh: we are adjourned.

person and a deadline for receipt of the vote by mail ballots. >> hello. my name is ross mirkarimi, i'm the supervisor of the fifth district of the board of supervisors of san francisco. i am running for sheriff because i want to improve public safety throughout san francisco. when i was elected supervisor in 2004, i inherited the district with many neighborhoods that notoriously had the second-highest violent crime rate throughout all of san francisco. i set out to make sure we take back our streets from crime. i did so with the kind of innovative programs that had not been used because of a community that had been woefully underserved but making sure we were able to marry the power of redemption on one end to being smart on crime in the other. long story short, we have been able to reduce violent crime to the point where i now had the largest reduction in the murder rate and violent crime rates throughout all of the city in

our district. as evidenced by the visit darrow, the fillmore west addition and surrounding neighborhoods. during this time, cultivated a relationship with sheriff mike hennessey, the longest serving sheriff in san francisco history. he has been our share for more than 30 years. sheriff hennessy has endorsed me to succeed him as sheriff. sheriff is much more than managing the jail system, which we have a population of about 1500 inmates a day, or protecting government buildings and what share of tennessee did was add it to rehabilitation and re-enter programs for -- before their release from county jail. we need to build on the foundation of sheriff mike hennessey and demonstrate it want to improve public safety, we do so by tackling recidivism, received a -- repeat offender rates that occurred because we are not getting to the ability to correct people's

lives and help him correct them themselves before they get out of jail and stay off -- stay out of the criminal past. for every four people the san francisco police department arrest and is prosecuted, almost three are repeat offenders. that statistic would literally be a lot worse if it were not for the innovations of mike hennessey, but we have to improve our game. i want to turn around the same people to turn back there live and return back to the bayview, sunnyvale and mission, tenderloin, and others because i believe in those same neighborhoods where there is great economic distress, those are the neighborhoods that have the greatest public safety challenges. i will save taxpayers money and i will be able to help demonstrate, built on the tennessee foundation of what it means to reform our criminal- justice system through the eyes of the sheriff's department. i would be honored to have your support. please don't hesitate to contact

us if you have any questions. it has been an honor to serve you as a supervisor and i would be honored to be your sheriff. >> the league of women voters and sfgovtv have been honored to bring you statements by all four candidates for share of. >> my name is paul miyamoto and i make captain in the sheriff's department and i can't edit it for sheriff in this election. our department finds itself in a very neat situation on the eve of a significant change in the criminal justice system. our share has decided to retire after close to 32 years. the best person to continue his legacy and build on his foundation is someone who has been a part of carrying out that vision. that is me. i have professional experience in the operations and management of this department. i have risen through the ranks of all positions in gaining that experience as a trusted manager

and leader with share of tennessee. i have work to implement and support these programs throughout my entire career in public service. i love this department and i am completely, absolutely dedicated to continuing the surest vision and moving the department forward as we face new challenges in the public safety. i have the universal support of the two labour organizations in the department that represent the men and women carry out the shares vision. at the close, personal, emotional tie to the department. on my very first day on the job, i was late in relieving a deputy. to make up for that, i married that deputy and we are now raising our five children in this community. my priorities as europe are as follows -- the realignment of the california state prison system will have a significant impact of the criminal justice system. our past and continued success in these programs and services for individuals and out of custody is especially important to ensure since convicted felons will now fall under county level

oversight. i have been responsible for carrying out the surest vision for the last 15 years. as the sheriff, my goal is to ensure the effective integration from custody. reducing the chances of refunding means increasing public safety for us all. in regards to the secured communities program, the implementation of the program as it stands leads to the edification and deportation of undocumented residents with minimal or no prior criminal history. i feel our focus should not be on these individuals. i feel our partnership with late -- with state and local agencies will focus on the program to apprehend violent, dangerous criminals that pose a direct threat to our community. my third platform is to reexamine the organizational structure of the department to ensure efficiency. my goal would be to position the department to facilitate public safety obligations that arise. i have a unique perspective to

lead to a difficult economic times that require us to be able to do more with less. public safety should not be compromised. if experience, respect, and overwhelming support of the people who do the job is important to you, i'm the person for the job. i look forward to your support for me this november in becoming the first asian american share of in san francisco. thank you. >> election day is november 8th, 2011. that is the last date to vote in person and last date for receipt of the vote by mail ballots. >> i am david wong, a 20-years the trend with the san francisco assurance department. i served eight years in the united states army reserves and national guard. i am actively involved with youth programs like community youth centers and others in san francisco.

i live in sunset with my wife and two children. i'm running for the office of sheriff because i believe we must reduce the recidivism rate and in still crime preventive measures by investing in our youth. in the 20 years i served as a deputy sheriff for san francisco, i witnessed the department spent more money for fewer resources. as sheriff, i would implement job training for the incarcerated to enable them to transition into productive citizens and contribute toward our society. i would encourage youth programs where debt easing cage with the community, offering opportunity to our youth, enabling them to lead productive lives instead of turning to crime. i would implement a

rehabilitation process for the incarcerated. i would implement a performance evaluation system to ensure every individual in a drug rehab program is held accountable for their participation. in addition, with the new realignment sentencing program governor brown just enacted, i would invite all city unions to offer a basic life skills training course which would teach people in our jail how to get a job. thereby, providing an alternative to crime. i will work with the public defender's office and apply the clean slate program for them. let's make a change. vote for me for sheriff. thank you.
