of those green spaces are going to be filled. on the one hand there is nothing written that indicates that these green spaces were designated specific and were to state green spaces. and both sides have presented strong cases to represent themselves. i think that if we close one green space we will have to close all of them. and i don't know if i feel comfortable enough with making that decision and it is not just one project it is all of the projects. >> so i will make a motion that we grant the appeal and over turn the permit on the basis

that... commissioner hurtado may i make a suggestion? if you don't mind? >> no i don't, it is the end of the night. >> with the city attorney's assistance i would encourage you to base your motion on the basis for recommendations that is in the planning staff, that is on page 4 >> there are two bullets that shows that it creates circumstances because it will not preserve and protect the character and stability of the development and not be as orderly and beneficial in the project and any other that shows that the project if approved will result in expectation and the project elsewhere in the san francisco development. and i would also encourage you to base your decision on section 76 of the tax regulations code which talks about the assessed on the surrounding property and residents. >> thank you i will accept

those friendly amendments to my motion since those are suggestions, that seem reasonable given our discussion and the evidence that we heard tonight and so he will adopt those into my motion. >> okay. >> if you could have a motion from commissioner hurtado. to grant this appeal on the basis of the excerpts of the planning staff as the analysis as read into the record and on the basis of the article one section 26, correct? >> of the business and tax regulations code. referring to the general interest standard. is that it >> yeah. >> and on that motion, to grant sxf revoke this permit, with those findings, commissioner fung? >> no. >> president hwang?

presentation. then i'll come back to tell you your role in the program >> hi commissioners amy with the economic workforce and development committee. what came up was our director couldn't be here was the lead project manager. i'm going to start with just - i can use it now? so i'm going to give you a brief history and some of you know that our office has been doing economic work under the leadership of one gentleman and in the mayors campaign he

announced an initiative to start this so we started this program so take some of the work in planning and others in about 10 neighborhoods and expand it. the vision for investing in neighborhoods is to create driving commercial districts. the map is we have 25 areas we're trying to effect that. i think that sue and tracy will talk about the neighborhoods. so we're working in all supervisoral neighborhoods we felt there were opportunities and the inputs from folks was considered. if you breakdown the healthy

commercial districts there's a lot of persons who have >> excuse me. could you enlarge that it's impossible to read. >> i think we can provided those afterwards - oh, great. sorry about that. so there's a lot of things that make up a healthy district but if you have to come up with categories those categories include thriving businesses and quality of life issues and strong leadership and attractive physical conditions. there's a whole bunch of programs that have existed to effect those different things whether it's dp w sidewalk cleaning program or rezoning

met accurately by craig list so we worked with urban solutions to create a tool that's expand and is available for anyone to upgrade leaseable rail space but as part of it we're insuring that the corridors get listed with property owner approval, of course. there's a few other baseline services that are imply programs. we started this and it's basically roving business occurrences who are deployed to go door-to-door and determine

what the services for our businesses. >> the other piece of invest in neighborhoods is a customized deployment of services and we've done in conjunction with the planning department is create an assessment process to find out what they need. there are some neighborhoods that need different things. so we came up with a way to determine the highest priorities and assigning a set of interventions that are needed in that neighborhood >> i'm with planning. i'm going to talk about the neighborhood assessment step

that the planning department prepared and also as amy listed we're prepared for the purpose of providing quick concise information for the neighborhood and other stakeholders. those communities snapshot show the investment for customized services. there are 25 neighborhoods in the invest in neighborhoods program but so far only 11 neighborhood profiles have been officially realized. we've provided the commissioners copies of those profiles. we have center for the public and we also have s
