live in the building next door. i know what it's like to have someone above making noise because i have a similar apartment situation. i'm just going to say the facts that i know. maybe about three years ago when this neighbor moved in, i remember there was somebody selling tickets outside lily's building. they said c'mon over. you can buy tickets for this concert and there was loud music. that was my introduction to something was not so natural up there. and then, then one time i was just walking home and a couple people asked me do you know where such and such business is and the address was that address. 264. i said, well, no, the address is up there. so then i was kind of a flag that
4:01 am
there was a business thing being run up there and just yesterday i was at lily's house to try to have a cup of tea in her kitchen, 8:30 and a motor was going and it lasted for over an hour and it was grading on my nerves and it wasn't enjoyable for my neighbor. i can imagine what it's like for her at all hours. i just wanted to say what i know. >> thank you. any other public comment? hello, my name is
4:02 am
nicholas. i'm the son of lily palacios. i just want to report what i have been seeing and hearing . there has been a lot of noise from the upstairs in the daytime and nighttime. most lee at night it sounds like a lot of shuffling around for various projects they do and at first it was sounding like an exercise group or maybe stamping from upstairs. this was very regular. it would happen pretty often and eventually it changed to the juicing business which they brought in the juicer that sends vibrations throughout the house. you can tell when you are at the bottom of the stairs you can walk through the doors and tell she's juicing already. sometimes it goes for hours and
4:03 am
other times late at night. sometimes at late as 11:30. her interactions, there haven't been many. first it was phone calls and eventually her phone number was blocked and then we tried sending letters and we would get the letters back with various notes denying that she was running a business. we also received one letter from her one night that just kind of got slipped under our door. basically a hate speech against my mom saying she was burned and had no right to do this and she works with handicapped people and that my mom is a terrible person. and just keeps saying that we are the ones being noisy and bothering her roommates which we are not. we are a pretty quite family.
4:04 am
that's all i have to say. >> can i see that letter? >> sure. >> i don't know if anyone else wants to see it. >> hi. my name is julie. i'm the daughter of lily palacios. i'm also going to comment on what's going on. we can't live comfortably. i cannot stress how often and how continuous. it's almost impressive of how
4:05 am
it doesn't stop. i wonder how she can keep up living with that much noise. to live there it makes me uncomfortable and how to see my mom upset makes me very unhappy. this whole situation is very hard to live with. and despite us trying to be civil, it's never worked. we've only down -- done it a few times because the response we get is not positive. we would have hoped this matter would have been resolved much more peacefully than it has. just to say again it's been very stressful to live with nicole doing what she does in her home and she has been attacking my mom verbally and it's been very stressful to
4:06 am
receive those letters. my sister can't even be here because it's that stressful. she can't properly describe how she's feeling about the whole situation particularly the very last letter that my brother showed on the overhead screen. that's all. >> thank you. >> is there any other public comment? >> okay. seeing none then we will take rebut tal. there is 3 minutes. miss wright? >> so, for no. 1 it is my hope that you have experience with stalking and harassment and
4:07 am
narcissistic paranoid stalkers. the city planner the notes he made about my house has been correct. the house is very clean. we have 5 roommates that make more than 6 figures and we all clean and they have very high level jobs. it's not a crime to have a clean house. we have a pandora in our kitchen because we like to cook and it's great music or tv. there is no other business from my house. with regards to the woman taking out boxers, that is patricia. i have currently i have bronchitis, a staph infection. i have asked her to make juices for me. i have an
4:08 am
avid juicer. i do personally juice at least four times a year. so when i first moved in, basically what lily did was she used to call me in the middle of the night. i have obtained records from verizon and she would is send me nasty letters. she produced a scarlet letter on my door talking about sex and drugs and very insane. i reacted negatively. i have over 200 reports of lily calling me in the middle of the night and also because all my roommates are all high level over six figures. we are in bed by 10. our house is totally quite. i work on my computer, i'm very
4:09 am
silent. yes, when we use the vacuum, she would hear that. in fact i hear her playing her music. the difference from my how was -- how household and mine, she's making a lot of noise. her daughter broke into my house. i have contracts with my clients showing that i do not see clients from my home. if you know anything about paranoid stalkers, it's a form of narcissism and they go and terrorize their victims and twist everything around. this bottom has been harassing me. regarding the tickets. we had a house warming party and i had one of my friends check in the
4:10 am
guest list before they came to my house and the music stopped before 10 p.m.. >> okay, your time is up. >> can i say one more thing? >> one more thing. >> thank you, regarding the eviction, the attorney also per beyond -- perjured himself. >> i have been devoted to yelp. it's not by real people. once your business gets to a success, yelp post reviews. i cannot prove it but i do believe lily has been posting fake reviews as well. it says it on my report and website. i
4:11 am

4:13 am
dolores. a loft for wellness practitioner. they also rent out the kitchen. the photo of the appellant says they rent out the kitchen for private parties. the minimum fee is $1200. this is a resident control dwelling unit and more of the materials which advertise that food body me operates at 264 dolores. another listing for american sign language class at 264
4:14 am
dolores and this was from march 20th. so there is substantial evidence that shows this rent control dwelling unit has been illegally used for commercial uses in violation of the planning code. i will be available for any questions. >> thank you. >> this matter is submitted. >> any comments? >> i will comment. i think the evidence is pretty overwhelming here. the space has been used as a commercial establishment and i would vote to deny the appeal. >> anything else? >> i concur that the president attempted to get to the issue with the appellant, however
4:15 am
nothing came forth in terms of answering the charges of the zoning administrator and the planning department. that's what we are really here for. i will make a motion to deny the appeal on the basis that the zoning administrator did not error abuse his discretion. >> if you can call the roll on that please? >> on that motion from commissioner hurtado to uphold this notice of violation on the basis that the zoning administrator did not error or misuse his discretion. commissioner fong, aye, president huang, aye, lazarus, honda. this notice is upheld on that basis. >> there is no further

4:29 am
>> here. >> any public comments on matters on the agenda and not on the agenda. >> i am larry and we want to include the impact that the pending legislation will have on san francisco campaigning and reporting and that is timely now because we are going into an election season and if the legislation such as the disclose act pass its will have a direct impact on what it is that people are required to do here, and it will be good to have the ethics commission provide an update and this is similar to what the fpc does, and also i would note that los angeles ethics commission is participating directly in the conversations with the ftpc and the state on the california disclose act and offering their insights from their experience. and i would recommend that the san francisco ethics commission also participate in discussions so that they could have the
4:30 am
benefit of your experience. thank you. >> thank you, mr. bush. >> i would just mention to the commission that we are spending the day with the fppc on june 11th. >> and that seems like a good suggestion, to have a regular update, whenever there is pending legislation. that we should be aware of or that it impacts anything that we do. and any other public comment at this time? >> okay. the next item is a discussion and possible action on a request for waiver from alan martinez, former member of the historic preservation commission >> this waiver is different than the last one that the commission considered. the prior one was a waiver that so that someone could
