12:01 pm
more uniform and equal across disability, gender and so forth. so we currently have the changing system in place but we hope to expand to include a call in service of 311. >> thank you. >> i wanted to make a comment. i think it's important to have the space for shelter like this. obviously you explained the programming and the services that are provided what make it work. you know, my sort of dream is san francisco is filled with energy and innovation. we see people step from all walks of life to help this. i'm hoping that the supervisor
12:02 pm
is working on this and san francisco what move up and it's the compassion in this room that's the key. so i'm obviously in support. commissioner moore and a just one final comment i hope that the passage of 181266 will further hope to support what the city and state can do. >> on that motion to approve with conditions (calling names) so moved commissioners that motion passes unanimously 7 to zero (clapping). >> congratulations to you hearing for thursday august 14th
12:03 pm
and when spanking before the commission please do state your name for the record. commissioners we left off on fern a and b for case numbers. and at 333 branson street request for a larger authorization and large development authorizations. good afternoon >> i'm here with our environmental planning division. it's an office negotiation o authorization for the brandon street for the project is seeking modifications for permitted sfrit encroachment and the horizontal mass projects. and the new construction of a 6
12:04 pm
foot story at all. the proposed project will empathize 1 hundred and 45 thousand square feet of office space and will include 12 bicycle parks spaces and 5 car share parking spaces speaker the prevention so is designed with one private court yard and one private. since the packets the department has received a total of 3 comments on the proposed project. one supported neither way and another comment was on the traffic analysis as well as on say rooftop equipment and a third member talked about the project design. copies of this correspondence has been provided to you.
12:05 pm
after analyzing all impact the department is consistent with the project in the overall quality to be surrounding with the character. within the mixed use office zoning district as of july 2012 there's approximately 2.2 million office space allocation. the project represents an allocation of 7 percent of the large office space. the authorization of the office space will allow four new businesses in the area which b will attribute to the office businesses in the area. this concluded my presentation and i'm available for any questions.
12:06 pm
thank you. project sponsor please. >> okay waiting for the time to pop up. good afternoon president fong and members of the commission. i'm jim rubin and we're working with the project sponsor. before addressing the project itself i believe this is the first occasion that kilroy has had to come before your commission. they've been active in the city and have done a lot of projects. there's another one after the alice and there's another kilroy project. if you look at the overhead i've put on that overhead a graphic that shows you the building that kilroy has acquired in the last
12:07 pm
two, 2 1/2 buildings. they've have not had to come here but they've done a lot of work. by the way, example that's where pact 12 as ronald and it's something of a media building. 333 brandon is before you and thirty 1 is next door and the lieutenant is in that believe. 100 first street is not an attractive building but it's been completely repositioned and the lobby is redone and it's better today. 350 mission is a high-rise building that's been 1 hundred percent lease to sales force and seven hundred and 40 thousand feet and that plaza been redone
12:08 pm
as well. and anybody knows this is a tremendous improvement. i'll remember who's in there on a break. 333 brandon is exactly the building that the eastern neighborhoods called for the architects were called to look at that and you essentially suggested in 2345089 when eastern neighborhoods was adopted. in the last couple of weeks we've had our first comments from john who's here and i'm not sure he'll be up here talking about his issues and concerns. i don't characterize them as opposition by as an effort to modify the building for purchases heel describe by in showing you the building we've ask our architect to address
12:09 pm
some of the issues ahead of time. i'm going to turn it over to my colleague. we're all here the earners and architects to answer questions >> thank you jim and welcoming welcome back from lunch. thank you very much to the commission. and i'm thanking you for working with us. our gratitude for the staff. and thank you to kilroy reality who was which one this project to create an "x" last year project. kilroy has been in my practice we think of ourselves as a leader but kilroy has been a
12:10 pm
leader in front of the lead they care about the environment. as a matter of fact they were recognized recently because the energy star protocol that they manage has an overall rating of 55, 50 being the average perform and 75 being good. i want to thank the entire team. they'll put together an incredible team. and i'll go through that. the building really recognize its place. wow. that's red. that's a little bit more red. the building really recognize the neighborhood and the brick character.
12:11 pm
what kilroy seeks to do a building that is context. they own the building to the left and are collaborating with the building on the right to mix this together and to heal that part of the neighborhood that's simply a parking lot. it was also expressed there's one of the interpretations of the bay window is on the corner of the project shows the bay window turning the corner in a san francisco way. the site was identified as occupied under utilized by some buildings this serve at&t and it's a parking lot currently and popular it has an internal property line that wraps around
12:12 pm
the south and west side. this interior property line a little bit more clear in our package is a limits the opportunity for glagz. we're anticipating a window agreement with the 55 property owner to the bottom of the drawing that will allow us to get additional windows on the right-hand side. the open space - so this is the same plan showing the roof. the occupied roof space is in yellow and there will be a garden on the roof space to increase habitats for butter flies in the city and to gather
12:13 pm
rainwater. the two educational gardens are on the ground floor on brandon street. we exceed the requirements on those spaces alone. their functioning at grade. the court yard will be part of the sequence. the site slopes 7 feet approximately from brandon street down to stanford street with that p a 65 feet limit of being efficient with our loading dock but craft lee fully putting in an english basement. it benefits from that court yard from the lottery level up to the sky to get daylight deep into
12:14 pm
that plan. so that slopes makes it a split-level building on stanford street. so on brandon street we have 7 foot retail space colored yellow on the gene and further back we're a split-level so the grade goes from high to low. one of the innovations that was put forward is would we put retail on stanford street but it would be challenging for the retail but we'd lose twice the amount of space because it would top two floors. we think that brandon is a great opportunity for retail and a stanford we've optimized for room and it would be challenging
12:15 pm
to insert a space there that would be assessable from the sidewalk. as asked for in the eastern neighborhood there is vital it and life. we have a place for parking benches and is retail is in back of that. this plan shows the terrace level with that open space in green and then the open space on brandon in green and the current location on yellow that activates that court yard it's about enough space for a small retail or restaurants. we anticipate food service so
12:16 pm
we're going to accommodate egresses hoods. the brandon street court yard is seen as a way to enter the building quietly. we're creating an opportunity for the building to increase air and light from the windows. it's a nice public space there. there's no art required in the district but art is an important part of the culture so you see the type of art we imagine visually seeing. the working place is about 35 thousand square feet and we'll put the mechanic space across the street and this is the level that has the terraced.
12:17 pm
the facade is primarily brick without the windows. with a highly tuned exterior skin for thermal comfort. by having that side core building we're able to hold the mechanical system further away to the north and east. you can see from the grade it would be difficult to see the screening. we're required to screen all equipment on the roof, of course. and the other two facades of the building the upper left and the stanfo stanfo stanford. we created an "x" particular
12:18 pm
building that will produce clean energy. it's heavily going to be taking advantage of the transit terminals in the neighborhood. we are going to optimum car share and provided twice harassing as many bicycle spaces as called for. the skin is a very good place to have an office. kilroy is creating a long term vail for themselves and the city and thank you very much >> thank you. >> so we've got a couple of minutes left to respond to the questions and we'll do that.
12:19 pm
>> we'll open it up four public comment. there's public comment on this item. we have some speaker cards. (calling names) >> thank you very much commissioners. i am a 13 year resident of the neighborhood that this project will go in. i go in a building on 5 62nd street and our residents we're about 50 residents use stanford street on a daily business where we egress. there's some concerns. the first part it the variance for the garage which is located pretty much half of our windows will offer look this garage.
12:20 pm
the project sponsors want it to be enlarged to accommodate large trucks. in order to accommodate playground trucks the planning commission has recommend that parking on stanford street be removed. some years ago we asked the mta to designate stanford street as neighborhood zoned parking. we have very little wide parking. that is the smallest zone in the entire city. our neighborhood has parking rates that are now public parking rates of $7 an hour. that number will increase when i
12:21 pm
suspect we covet whatever parking we need it allows us to have parking to have our children invite and this project we're being asked to approve is to remove 85 feet of that which under our analysis is almost all of the parking zoning. we are troubled but the environmental impact assessment to learn and i'll show you this. when the analysis was done - i don't know if i can project it. the analysis said there was no neighborhood zone parking. and out right false statement. now i don't know if that was
12:22 pm
intentional but it seems like when a sponsor stepped forward it ousted it to have adequate information. this is the two hundred feet face of this project. that it ought to be accurate. thank you >> thank you. >> john and (calling names). >> mr. secretary would you, please describe those. this is a project that we could support if it made modifications to directly address the dead zone impact of office buildings we talked about last week with you. the existing office building are deadly. they don't have to be if way and
12:23 pm
with the limited number of modifications could be a positive addition to the future south serve market peculiar it's to add a small micro space on the additional. why? because the alleys have tremors potential for the south of marketing both commercial and residential. and to make them places that people want to go you need small retail. yes. the developer would lose 1 thousand squeegee of office. it's the last very last foot they can afford that space for the sake of our neighborhood. if they propose one it should be additional use. the vague of retail is that a
12:24 pm
small business can reasonable finance it. small businesses couldn't afford $5,000 investment. the developer should add parking both on brandon and the alley to make up for the open space that's going to be public. the park let's should tremorly improve the area. if the driveways with the adjacent buildings can be merged. and last but not least in the past when a major rezoning the commission would require developers to commit to comply with new regulations as part of
12:25 pm
that rezoning and in this case, the district requirements perhaps where they need to install solar energy on the roof and parking regulations to limit single commute parking and native habitat and other requirement and last but not least public art program requirements as they noted there is none. this project has no guidelines for public art. thank you >> mr. secretary has a handout. hello, i'm mr. looeven. i want you to make the approve contestant on the provisions of
12:26 pm
the side of the building. this would make an ideal spot of 4 to 5 hundred squeegee and would enhance activity on the alley. the tack could group is invento inventorying and those provided a truly outside service for this community. i want to highlight what they provided and why their inclusion in new office projects is singularly. first a small footprint makes it possible to carry out the neighborhood businesses. second at 5 hundred to 1,000
12:27 pm
squeegee the space for mick businesses are two small and they chip away and it would be unforgiveable. and have third the create spaces for diverse character rich places. and finally and critically they provided excellent tree level for long-term community for immigrant and our lgbt and our enterprises. those handouts are for the neighborhood enhancement and the next time of alleyways to add to its neighborhoods the importance of stanford alley has to be considered. so i urge you to make those
12:28 pm
improvements. so it would add to the neighborhood skill amenities and add to the character and provided a realistic opportunity at the same time provided an opportunity to enhance the alleyways that could be considered part of the corridor plan. thank you >> thank you. >> good afternoon. i'm sonya. i'm the community advocate for an organization and i live a block and a half away. i'm he concerned about formula retail spaces that would totally change the feel of the neighborhood and the open space
12:29 pm
and how it's treated pr there is south park there but more open space is better especially in office buildings that are dead zones and during the weekends it's a dead zone so open space and good open space is required. along with the other proposed office buildings especially along brandon street i think this would be a model proximately and others projects south of marketing. thank you very much for your time >> thank you. >> good afternoon,
12:30 pm
commissioners i'm sue. i'm involved with the eastern neighborhoods plan amendment right now because i'm involved with warriors project. one of the things you have to acknowledge is this plan is exempt because the eastern neighborhoods plan met with certified on 2008. the arena project had a scoping notice of december 2012 more than four years later that's what's up here. and this project involves amendment the eastern zoning plan. it is to be by changing the formula of this site commercial
