the revocation was done in error. and that i should leave it at that. >> i don't know if you might want to base it on it on relying on the 1970, cfc. >> that will be my motion, yeah. >> did you want to make a comment? >> anthony graco department of building inspection. and the (inaudible) would be reinstated and active again will proceed through the normal inspection process and we will issue final inspection completion job cards, certain projects in our chapter one administrative code indicate those particular types of projects and permits that do receive the certificate of final completion and occupancy and not every job gets one, a typical bath or remodel will not get one and horizontal

additions or seismic up grades and changes in use and changes of occupancy and so if in this case there is no change of use or occupancy there is still two units and then we will, our department will look administratively again, at reissuing the 3 r based on this board's determination and we will discuss with our director and actually we are going to take whether we will do that based on the determination tonight or the subsequent permits as they proceed. >> okay. >> yeah, i mean that it seems to me that it has to be clarified that at if at some point the building sells again, we have a report that is issued with the units and if the determination tonight is that permit is going to be reinstated and the revocation is denied, and we will have to evaluate the reissuance of that report to reflect the actual two unit building. >> go ahead. >> i was going to say that we should focus on what is before us which the revocation. >> i believe thatis correct.

>> so, would you like the roll to be called? >> that is my motion. >> okay. >> no. it was, it will be the commissioner hurtado. >> okay. >> and we concur. >> thank you. >> so. >> on that motion, from commissioner hurtado. the motion is to grant the appeal over rule the zoning administrator's revocation request and reinstate all three permits with the finding that the zoning administrator errored on relying on the 1970 final certificate of completion and occupancy. >> correct. >> on that motion to over rule. with that finding, commissioner fung? >> aye. >> president is absent. vice president lazarus? >> aye. >> and commissioner honda? >> aye. >> and thank you.

the vote is 4 -0 and the revocation request is over ruled. and the permits are reinstated with that finding thank you. >> thank you. >> there is no further business. >> meeting is adjourned. >> good morning. ourned. thank you for being here. i'm here this morning with the mayor of south san francisco, mayor pedro gonzalez. i'm here with supervisor scott

wiener, with our treasurer jose cisneros, our city administrator naomi kelly, representatives of mayor kwan in oakland, from our sfnta john haley, members of our work force and economic development teams and our assessor recorder carmen chu, along with our department of human resources mickey callahan. also to my immediate left here is california state secretary of labor, marty morgan stern. this morning we have come together to talk about the need to reach an agreement on our bart system. the whole week, and certainly weeks in the past, i have engaged people working in our hotels, in our coffee shops, in our restaurants, small

businesses the like. i couldn't even get a burrito without confronting somebody who asked that we take our stand object behalf of the public. that we need an agreement and not a is strike in our bart system. and that the public rider ship, the 400,000 people who use bart, need a voice at this table. we need to make sure that both management and labor have as their objective when they are meeting to negotiate out an agreement that they need to know it is no longer a matter of inconvenience to the ridership. it is hardship. it is hardship for people trying to get to work. in many cases people trying to get to two places of work. it is hardship. for parents who need to get

from work to their child care centers, to make sure that they make it on time. it is hardship for people and working class families who are screaming by -- screeching by to make sure ends meet, and yet are subject to have to pay high prices for parking a car that they would not have had to use if the system was working for them. and, so, on behalf of the rider ship, working families, parents and others, we together today standing solidly to give them a voice. this weekend, bart management and bart labor negotiators have to negotiate to an agreement, not to a stand still. we've already seen the negative impacts that a strike has, and it is hardship. it is hardship for everybody. i feel it. that's why i'm here today with

all the bay area -- as representatives that could make it here today, they needed a voice at this table and they need to remind people very strongly that it is not about inconvenience any longer, it is about their hardship and we need to focus on their dependency of a very serious investment that we've all made for years and years, and that is investment in our bart system. and, so, that is one point that we need to make. and i want to put a face on the ridership for all of us that we care about, the working families, the people that are every day struggling with their lives to make sure that they know we are representing them, to insist as strong as we can, negotiations should not be about presenting to the public the differences that they have so much as using that time to reach an agreement by this weekend. this is the opportunity we

have. we cannot waste that time. we have to get an agreement by everybody. that is the objective that we want to represent. it is incredible that we have to spend so much of our time these days planning for the impacts of what a strike will do. all of us are working overtime to prevent the hardships that are going to happen, that they have happened for the 4-1/2 days last month. to the tune of over $70 million of cost to all the bay area. all of us have also been in communications with the secretary's office and the governor's office so that we want to continue to make sure that every opportunity of communication is open, but also

that everybody do their job, which is get an agreement. and i want to then turn this over to present the secretary of labor for the state of california, marty morgan stern. marty. >> thank you, mr. mayor. i'll be very brief. governor brown shares the concern of mayor lee and the other public officials that we do not need yet another bart strike, that this is a great hardship for the people of the bay area and the economy of the bay area, for everybody who works here, lives here, goes to school here, travels here, and that the negotiators on both sides should be making every possible effort that -- we don't expect them to leave the bargaining table without an agreement. i asked and they agreed to a

30-day extension of the contract. they've had another 28 days so far. we expect that the next couple of days that they will succeed. failure to reach an agreement will be a serious failure, one that leadership should not -- should not abide. the governor has set this as a top priority. we've had two of our best mediators in there for the entire time. we've had the head of the public employment relations board, our highest public official in this area, working daily on this situation. we've done everything possible. i've stayed in touch with them. the governor has been apprised of the situation. we have done everything possible to help these bodies reach an agreement. now it is up to them to see to it that they find a way to

reach a contract that's fair to workers, fair to management, and fair to the people of the bay area and the state of california by not closing down this vital transportation needs of the area. thank you. >> we'll take whatever questions people have. >> [inaudible]. >> [speaker not understood] will consider all the options. >> [speaker not understood]. >> i didn't hear the question. was that a question for me? >> yeah. my understanding is that bart is looking at possibly trying to get managers formally trained -- >> you'll have to address that to bart management. >> [speaker not understood].

i was hearing yesterday 45% of the 22,000 city employees use some form of public transportation [speaker not understood]. what would be the impact on city operations? >> that is correct, and john haley is here from our mta to talk about the details of how we're preparing for it. but i'll tell you, it is a use of time that we shouldn't have to do, but we have to do it. and this is part of the burden that all of our cities, whether it's oakland or san francisco are facing, is that we've got to help our ridership get around the city for very necessary transportation needs that they have. and, so, john, if you're here, you can talk a little bit about the preparations that we're doing to get people around here. i know scott wiener is also engaged with public -- his ridership and the small businesses in his district as well. john. >> thank you, mayor. as the mayor said, we are prepared to do everything we can. in particular, our plan

includes beefing up transit service in key corridors, in particular the balboa park area which means extra trains on the j line, extra service along the mission corridor which we saw last time was heavy. we're also -- some of the things that we learned from our first experience, we will in the afternoons, for example, increase the hours that we have, parking control officers to help with traffic flow to and from the bridge and along the key downtown streets. we will also expand the casual car pooling areas down there to help people get around. and our work force did an extraordinary job in coming to work last time to allow us to provide the extra service to help to ease some of the hardship that we're talking about. but we're prepared to do everything we can. we'll have our management team out as ambassadors to provide information. so, we're committed to helping

to ease the pain as best we can, but clearly expect crowding and there will be pain and no one will have -- going anywhere in the region who will have a normal kind of day. we can be assured of that. but we're prepared to do everything we can. >> [speaker not understood]. >> well, we will -- we are going to be ready as early as possible. obviously we're very aware of what's going on. we'll set up -- we have all of our plans in place. we learned, again from what we did last time, so, we expected people, in the event of a worst case scenario, we expect people will start come intion very early and we'll be ready for that. >> [speaker not understood], does this lead to the governor to be more inclined to allowing

transit workers to be able to [speaker not understood] what they have here in san francisco with muni? >> governor brown is concerned with avoiding a strike in this situation and he's concerned with neighborhood management finding a solution to the problem. that's where we are at this point. >> mayor lee, would you propose something statewide? >> you know, i focused on this weekend. i said it over and over again, there is an opportunity here to reach an agreement. negotiations should not be prolonged. they should definitely come to a conclusion with an agreement that both sides can live with. that's the goal. you know, we do have a system here in san francisco where there is no strike clauses and it's been helpful. labor piece has always been beneficial particularly with transit system. but at the same time we have an opportunity this weekend to voluntarily do that with incredible investments that the public has made, and that's why i think we need a voice for the

rider ship to really weigh in on the people at the table. we need an agreement to reflect all this effort, not ended up in the kind of economic hurt that all the families are trying to avoid. but they're speaking about it, the tremendous concerns for the quality of life here. >> second, do you feel like we're closer to an agreement now than when you started this 30-day cooling off period or do you think we're further apart? >> well, they haven't reached an agreement yet and that's my concern. the 30 days, there's been mediation. there's been involvement of officials all over the state and the area. and yet we haven't -- months of negotiation besides this month, and they haven't reached an agreement yet and that's our concern. closer isn't good enough. they've got to reach a deal. >> [speaker not understood]. >> excuse me?

>> would yoays,u ore time? >> we don't want this to drag on. we want this settled already. as the mayor has already explained, there is expensive -- there is great expense getting ready for these potential strikes. we don't think the people of the bay area should be kept on pins and needles forever. it's time for this to end. >> thank you, everybody. j
