>> -- this was before i submitted my appellant brief. this past sunday i noticed how to drawing of the top of the page showing the relative height of the buildings conveniently shows the three stories left on west side of the building. plus i noticed this yesterday when they wanted to add another wind ori for the interior and i already have no privacy and because i need to keep the curtains open. my point is to illustrate how deceptive these documents are.
8:31 pm
i think most people would not have noticed the discrepancy. after all i caught them by chance at the very last minute and six months after receiving the document. i greatly appreciate the time and diligent effort that the board has conducted in approving my appellant brief and i look forward to the judgment in my neighbor to revoke this permit especially the extensions on the roof and the rear. thank you. >> thank you commissioners. i'm here on behalf of the permit holder. the appellant has received significant notice throughout the process. this is the plan on the wall. even from
8:32 pm
the photo it's very clear there is a person standing. that was last march. miss pres sta did send the application to the pell appellant as well. what the department of planning asked to minimize the amount of paper go out, they request that you take the drawings and shrink them so they fit on a certain number of pages. this is where it looked a little odd at certain times because that's what the planning department requires you to do. that's exactly what's happened. since the dr filing period elapsed the construction drawings drafted, both the planning department and the dbi have received them and found
8:33 pm
them to be compliant with the code. i want to mention there is no window proposed for that wall along the appellants property. it's not permitted by the code because it's on the property line. so in the end the appellant waited 2 days prior to the appeal and responded to all the of the modifications that he requested. because he didn't file a dr request she found comfortable to plan the drawings and was surprised when she got the appeal two days before the appeal period. she was willing to listen to concerns. one of the things that miss pres sta did want to propose was it was create twog
8:34 pm
creating two walls and she was still willing to incorporate that into the design. in the end this process is going to create a new family size dwelling unit. the recently adopted housing element of the general plan has a clear policy to develop new housing and encourage the remodel of the new housing. new multi-bedroom is expensive and that creates a more affordable family housing. it's three units with open dedicated buildings. >> thank you. mr. sanchez, nothing further. the matter is
8:35 pm
submitted. >> a lot of things were brought up, but i think the primary issue with the appellant has to deal with the stair to the roof and the stair penthouse. looking at the orientation i would have guess that the blockage of the sun occurs relatively late in the afternoon. given that the penthouse is almost directly due west of the appellant's property. which means the southern sun is what provides most of the light and sunlight into rear yard and will continue as it tracks across
8:36 pm
the sky somewhere late afternoon where the penthouse will have any impact on the supplement. -- sunlight. at that time the sunlight is very low on the horizon and as was stated by a number of people, i find the impact here is modest and minimal. i think the appellant should accept the offer of the permit hold er to put glass in the stair and enhances their stairs and will add a little bit of transparentcy and light through that wall. >> i agree. i don't have anything else to add. >> me neither. i think the only thing i was concerned about was the light as well the
8:37 pm
technicality and any concern about clarification can be questions on the plans, at this point should have been resolved. the light issue, i don't think is of great concern. i think that i would move to deny the appeal and uphold the permit on the basis that it's code compliant. >> do you want us to condition the lazying in the stairwell? >> the appellant doesn't care. you have to come to the microphone, sorry. >> the only issue is that it would require additional time to be spent on the construction drawings. >> as far as the revision. >> exactly. >> unless it's done tonight. i
8:38 pm
don't think the appellant cares. i saw you shaking your head. so, again you need to speak in through the microphone, sorry. >> the shade expert that the permit holder hired showed with the glass it would cover the shade would be two or three hours per day. that's what we went over on may 3rd meeting with both architects. in fact, the architect asked him when they saw that i wasn't very happy with the shade because it was more than i was originally expecting. my guess was like an hour of shade with the penthouse there which is you know the sun is due west so it creates towards their shade area two or three hours and the architect requested to add
8:39 pm
glass instead and i said that is the glass, 2-3 hours per day. >> the question is should we condition the permit to have the glass be part of the stairwell, the penthouse? >> if it's a choice between glass or solid, i will have a choice between the house? then it's glass. but i would prefer none. >> okay. thank you. >> yes. >> i just want to point out, i'm not sure if that construction in the last wall of the property line if it would require the wall for fire rated. >> it's an excess of 3 1/2 feet. it's a double run on the stair there. >> so, do you want to --
8:40 pm
>> let's proceed. >> no amendment to my motion. okay, denial the appeal and uphold the permit as code compliant. >> okay, we have a motion from the president to deny this appeal and uphold the permit on the basis that it's code compliant. on that motion, commissioner fung? aye, hurtado? >> aye. commissioner honda? aye. the motion is approved. the permit is upheld on that basis. >> we are adjourned. thank you.
8:41 pm
