move forward with the plan, and next year, you have 0.1, which reflect the fact that work on a better neighborhood plan will wind down, and there will not be as much need for staffing at that point. but i have a question then on page 6. this is under environmental planning. it is activities b and e. product without dedicated funding to support ep's work, and e is in my middle work for

city sponsored project without dedicated funding. for the japan town neighborhood plan, if it does in its final form require an environmental report, with that come out of either one of these two line items? >> probably. this is essentially -- with these line items showed our projects that are covered by a fairly small general fund allocation that we have to work on those kind of public projects. what we do every year with the budget is approved is kind of look at all the projects that are potentially on that list that do not have funding and decide which ones we can do because we generally cannot do all of them, so we have to kind of set priorities as we move forward. >> if it is a smaller allocation and it requires a larger eir, and perhaps we do not know exactly what that would be, with the department then have to seek additional funding for that specific project? >> we would. we currently are thinking it is

not likely to be, but if by chance it will need to become the costs are so much higher that we would have to seek some additional funding. commissioner sugaya: ok, thank you. commissioner moore: i believe that this update is very thorough, very credible and layers old information on new insights, and i hope that you will have an asterisk somewhere in your presentation. i'm repeating myself, but the additional work you are undertaking bringing extra work to you will be reflected in that there will be staffing and funding to do a better job. i assume this is an action item, so i express my support.

>> to everyone involved in this, i think the presentations have been timely, thorough, and relatively clear. i understand the statistical mix up today, but you have done a very clear job of letting everyone -- commission and public -- understand where we are. >> commissioners, the motion before you is to adopt the department's final budget commissioner antonini: and work programantonini aye. çcommissioner borden: aye. commissioner fong: aye. commissioner moore: aye. commissioner sugaya: aye. commissioner wu: aye. president miguel: aye. >> thank you, commissioners. that motion passed unanimously. >> thank you, commissioners. appreciate it. >> commissioners, you are ready for item 6, and information presentation on the eastern neighborhoods monitoring reports

>> good afternoon, commissioners, president miguel. senior planner and manager of the information and analysis group with the citywide policy of analysis. the eastern neighborhoods plans

report is informational]i and action is required. >> the each neighborhoods plans were -- eastern neighborhoods plans were adopted by the

planning commission in 2008 and approved january 19, 2009. the monitoring requirements are listed to ensure effectiveness of the plans. this requires that first five-year reportsç be releasedy july, 2005 but we're just now able to present this to the commission. the reports will be the first in the time series and will cover 2006 through 2010, roughly a couple of years before and a couple of years after the adoption and approval. a subsequent report will come out in july 216 and will cover july 11, 2015 and 2016.

the resources include the annual housing inventory. the curely pipeline report, the different databases andç the m.t.a. and the mayor's office. section 10-e. 6. e also lists the different required categories of information and the reports will follow the order stated in the mandate and will cover commercial development trends, residential development trends, publicç benefits and historic surveys. the presentation wilpd follow te categories as stated in the mandate. first, on commercial space development nonresidential development in the five years

between 2006 and 2010t( saw the net addition of 1.1 million commercial square feet in the eastern neighborhoods. the completion of the 907,000 judiciary foot office space. the butcher hill area. the picture in the background is the a.t.m. overall the new development in the eastern neighborhoods constituted almost 18% of all nonresidential development citywide for the period. much ofç the new development ce in the form of office use. note that this isç net square footage, meaning that there are other developments that added new commercial space and other projects that resulted in loss or conversion of commercial space.

onto the pipeline. the commercial space pipeline in the eastern neighborhoods, if completed, will just be a slight uptick, a very small portion, about 1% of the commercial developmentçó, pipelines citywi. this is because of much proposed projects elsewhere in the city. this is another slice of the commercial pipeline byç land u. theçko addition of the commerc the general hospital expansion and significantly smaller growth in retail and office pace spaces. the loss in p.d.r. space explains much of the relatively low commercial additions to commercial square footage. 1/3 of the pipeline is under

construction or have received entitlement. the remaining 2/3 are still under review. the square footage is not new net square feet. there is new commercial place in showplace square but you will see there is, i guess, a loss in the other, east soma and the mission. now on to p.d.r. while there was net adecision in the five years reported. the pipeline is showing a net loss of about 325,000 square feet, later to be converted or demolished. the picture here is the allows square building and construction

has started to build 194 units in this space. we were asked to discuss employment terms. the second quarter of 2010 there were about 54,100 jobs in the area, representing about 10% of all jobs citywide. of these jobs, number one and three were in office jobs, about 25% in p.d.r. and another 25% were in retail services. this is another slice of the jobs distribution with the mission having proportionately more of the c.i.e. medical and retail jobs and p.d.r. jobs were mostly in east soma and showplace square. the monitoring mandate requires

an accounting of new employment in the eastern neighborhoods, specifically new office and retail employment based on the commercial development trends. based on the new commercial development, we estimate that approximately 2,600 new office and retail jobs can be accommodated this is based on an average employee density, and it's just an estimate. the new p.d.r. space, on the other hand, can accommodate an estimated 130 jobs. now for the residential development trends. 2006 to 2010 were very good years for housingç production san francisco. an average of 2,500 units a year were built -- were added to the city's housing stock during this period. the eastern neighbor saw an

decision of 2,100 units. as this slide shows where the units were built. 43% of the new units were built in east soma. as for affordable housing, just under a quarter of the units constructed in the eastern neighborhoods are affordable. this is about the same as the proportion citywide. about 60% of these units were affordable through public assistance. specifically this would be the rebuilding of thei] valencia gud skns new construction in the mission. the remainder are inclusionary units. this slide shows where the affordable units were built. you will see that the mission shows most of the affordable

housing. this is again because of the 260 units in the valencia gardens, as well as the 151 units -- there are also 1 0 believe market rate units that were built as offsite compliance for infinity and they were built in the showplace square area and so you'll see the inclusionary units are far higher in the showplace square area. there are over 3,300 net new units in the pipeline for the eastern neighborhoods. however, this residential development pipeline for the bx>uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu the residential pipeline. uuuuu this is because the bulk of the housing pipeline are in three projects, which account for over

20,000 units. most of the new units will be in the show dppings place square ñzs 1,00 proposed on one turner, which is currently under planning review. east soma has about three proposed residential developments with over 150 units each. in the mission, the largest project is the 1 4 units -- 194 units that was proposed in formally p.d.r. space, and the picture you see in the background is the 196-unit development at third street in the dog patch neighborhood. this is almost complete and it was sold for 90 million.

the monitoring reports also cover other changing to the housing stock, including housing stock preservation, specifically con do conversions and divisions by type. most of them were divisions. about 60% of the eastern neighborhood's total. as far as evictions are concerned, some 1,260 evictions or 13% of the citywide total were in the eastern neighborhoods. almost 8% were for owner movement which was about the same rate citywide. another six% -- 6% wereç for ellis act withdrawal, lower than the citywide rate and the bulk of the evictions were for other

reasons. i came acrossq i thinkxd theç commissioners w recognize the person that was evicked from his homeç nearly four years before the reporting period. he had appeared before the commission several times so i thought it was a little interesting. public benefits. e.n.ç trips, the transportatio implementation plan for all the eastern neighborhoods. it has completed its existing andç future existing analysis understand current transportation opportunities and constraints in the eastern neighborhoods. findings and identified stragsx were presented at a community meeting held last year. street escapei] imprufmentse. the city adopt add better streets plan that provides guidelines forç the public

including street escape requirements for new development. this ist( citywide. as for recreation and open space, the 14th and fasth some street parking lot has been identified as suitable for a new park in the mission plan area. after a series of committee meeting in 2010, three design alternatives have been merged into oneñr design, and i believ the first draft has already been finalized. the city is also working witht( the universitied school district and on the i.m. school site and the port of san francisco on the development of theñr crane code park and for showplace square, the open space plan effort was conducted between april and december 2009. ultimately eight sites for an

open space were identified in the show-place square-potrero him along withq each. funds have yet to be identified. the planning park is also working to identify a site with east soma for a public park. the monitoring reports also include inventories of existing community facilities as well as neighborhood serving establishments as a way of setting the baseline for these categories, as referenced in futureç monitoring reports. programs requires that all commercial development projects would net an addition of 25,000 gross square footage or more or to contribute to the city's jobs housing linkage program. there were no fees collected for commercial development in the eastern neighborhoods but

citywide about 88 million was collected, mostly in properties in the downtown c-3 area.ç implementation of proposed programming. the eastern neighborhoods advisory committee first convened in the autumn of 2009 andç has been meeting monthly sinceç then. y believe members of the c.a.c. may be present and may speak after this presentation. so far the planning department has collected a total of 750,00ç in impact fee revenues overñr t five years reported. the easternq benefit fee program was established to fundçó commun improvements throughout the four eastern neighborhoods. the fee can also beç used to fd housing needs. i believe that a detailedñr presentation on development

impact feesq expended was heard by theç commissioners about three weeks ago. six major surveys have been completed and endorsed by the historic preservation commission since the adoption of -- adoption ofç the eastern neighborhoods plans. this includes the dog patch historic district. a sixth streit lodging house. intermission north, intermission heavy timber and steel frame brick warehouse and factory -- historic district. unfortunately, the hiring program had no data available at this time so we are not able to include that in the report and that's it and i'll be available for -- to answer your questions. thank you. president miguel: thank you very much. there are a couple of speaker cards. dan murphy, tim colin.

>> commissioners, i'm dan murphy.ç of the eastern neighborhood c.e.c. and privateç developer both committees with a special focus on the east side. two weeks i was here and i raised the topic of implementation impediments and i promised to come back and given the lack of time i'm just going to focus on one and it relates directly to the plans -- if you recall, the plan is expected to produce about 10,000 housing units and depending on which document you look at up to approximately 13,000 new jobs over the life of the plan. i want to specifically talk about impediments related to job production. linda,ç can i have the overhea

please? i thought it might be helpful to highlight a real life example. currently i control a 3.3 acre parcel on showplace square which is surrounded by the california collegeç of arts and it's two blocks north of the daddaga triangle, which i worked with this commission on. in august of last year it was fully approved and we expect it will be under construction here in the next few months. the concept that i'm working to call it a model early version of the american can or the american building on the central water front. it's aç repurposed old canneryi believe it was. i would say it's aç beloved building in the city of san francisco. and i think the reason is it's a mettingw3 pot of business types. it's a diverse community of

entrepreneur nurls. chocolate makers, people in digital technology, everything that you could imagine and it ink baits new businesses because of the collaboration and whatnot that is collaborated within its shell. when i first started to work on this site of course iç pulled t the showplace square area plan to get guidance on landç use. and in it, just to refresh the commission's memory, there were four keyçó principles that the city embraced. the first one was affordable housing. number two was completeq neighborhoods, number three, preserve sufficient space for p.d.r. and number four was to take steps to provide new industries that bring innovation and flexibility to the city's

economy. you might ask what's the problem? the problem is the planning code doesn't have aç tool that woul allow meç to implement this specific concept in this location. there are other tools -- i'm out of time. president miguel: thank you. >> there are're tools but it will have to be another time. >> good afternoon,ç commissioners. i wanted to follow up on that theme. we've been having conversations among a lot of our members after the eastern neighborhood was passed and that great hubbub and let the dust settle, see how it went. but some of our members see impediments in the language to the eastern neighborhood plan to its achieving the goal that it set out. we put together a working group

and some ideas came up and i'm just going to touch on them lightly. here are small improvements that couldç be made to the eastern neighborhood plan. iç understand there's an insurance institutional reticence to open it up after five years and especially after the ghastly economic cycle we've been through. but still, these are seen as imped." . one might be the rigid restrictions on ground floor heights. if it werei] relacksd you could get good design. open space. instead of fixed amounts of open space per unit, make it on a percentage basis. three, dwelling unit exporsche. it's rigidly -- exposure. by the way.ç these three items came from architects, a couple of whom are well known to you. and it's the idea that we

support the goals of what eastern neighborhoodxd wanted t do but there are still some roughç edges that could be smoothed out. my purpose in coming is asking would you agree to open thank you conversation if we were toq propose changes? it could be to eastern neighborhoods that were from a design perspective. we took this to the eastern neighborhood c.a.c. to. eliminateç the c.e.u. for studç housing in eastern neighborhoods. they adopted it unanimously. and then finally, the conversation that never goes away is the question of p.d.r. and weç all agree that preservg jobs for less educated -- it has to be part of a civici] vision. but it doesn't seem quite to work in a city where now it's -- its chief objective is jobs, jobs, jobs, and in a city that chronically underproduces

housing. we're not sure if the p.d.r. question isn't right for a fuller discussion at some point and we don't see a reason to waitç five years. could start now. thank you. president miguel: thank you. is there additional public comment on this? if not, public comment and closed. commissioner commissioner antonini:?ç commissioner antonini: thank you. i really appreciate thexd repor it's veryç enlightening. just a few comments on what was in there. i think inç regards to the dege of commercial that weç see, i thinkç tft fairly smallç givee vast amount of land that is included inçç these eastern neighborhoods and even with what we are seeing, for example, the facility at 650 townsend.
