2:16 pm
neglect ever deck largsz revising noticing procedures for environmental impact reports and negative declaration for plan area projects exceeding 20 acres. and item 65 is an ordinance to repeal to the environmental review officer to consider an amended review of a modification does not require a new decision under the california environmental quality act. item 65 was considered by the land use and economic development committee at a regular meeting on monday july 22nd. >> supervisor kim? >> thank you, this is the final piece of legislation that has come before the full board. the legislation was initially introduced by our office along with supervisors campos avalos,
2:17 pm
mar and yee. as one final piece of the appeals process that members our advocates fought for. this is around specifically when an exempt project is modified and therefore is referred by a city department planning for the ero for a new look and the ero determines that it fits under the current exemption. this allows a member of p be to actually appeal to the ero and what it may or may not have under the public setting. this is a last piece under very delicately balanced set of legislation reform to the ceqa process and keeping the entire party in coalition together. so i do want to again thank our city attorney, chiu, supervisor wiener and planning for continued work on asl cts
2:18 pm
of this legislation together and look forward to passing those both pieces today. thank you. >> supervisor wiener? >> thank you, mr. president, colleagues i want to thank you again last week for the unanimous assets of the legislation that i forward and i hope will result in a significant improvement to the ceqa process in a clear deadline specifically triggered by the first approval of the project. i think it's a significant step forward. regarding the trailing with the legislation sponsored by supervisor kim, i will be supporting the legislation today. although i don't believe it to be a necessary in terms of having good process, i understand there is a dire for it and for how it is drafted and what i introduced to the
2:19 pm
committee yes, i'm uncomfortable supporting it. in terms of contact, the issue of modification, is the issue of debate and discussion for months. there was a concern by some folks who were opposing my legislation that something could be modified and there would not be an opportunity to appeal. supervisor kim's original legislation provided for effectively an appeal or potentially an appeal every time a modification occurred and i thought it would make our process even worse than today. i allow multiple appeals. i want to thank supervisor kim for really modifying that modification provision and i'm comfortable supporting it because what it basically does
2:20 pm
is it allows people who are concerned or believe that a modification should result in a new categorical exemption to ask the.ero to take a second look and providing information and really taking that second look. this appeal to the ero will not stop the project from proceeding and will not stop construction. it is not an appealable decision and can't be further an appealed. given all that it will not slowdown projects which have been approved which has been a big problem for projects in the city and i'm comfortable supporting it. >> thank you, colleagues, unless there is any further discussion, let's take a roll call vote on item 21.
2:21 pm
the clerk: avalos, breed, aye, chiu, aye, supervisor cohen, aye, supervisor ferrel, aye, supervisor kim, aye, mar, aye, tang, aye, supervisor wiener aye, yee, aye. >> can we take on the first item with same call? item passes. >> madam clerk, call item 22. >> the clerk: item 22. moss skoen expansion project. supervisor avalos?
2:22 pm
>> thank you, at the committee last week i asked for a report from dpw how we are going to be showing the expansion project that we make sure we hire locally and hitting our strong marks for participation. i was wondering if dpw could be here to share? >> good afternoon, supervisors, supervisor avalos requested the project data for both san francisco general hospital rebuild and the moss skoen renovation. there was an lbe goal set at 1 percent and --
2:23 pm
18 percent and it exceeded 20 percent. for local higher we reported 18 percent. we were mistaken because the renovation had both public and private funds that supported the project. we were able to go back and request some data because there was no cpr's collected from on the privately held contracts. we were still able to get some data and the current numbers that we are seeing is it exceeded 22 percent. >> that was for what year? >> that was the project came online in -- 2010. >> okay. so that was the time when we were actually at 20 percent in terms of our local hire ordinance and before it passed. i appreciate that. i want to make sure moving forward for very large projects that we are going to have an
