amendment orally without referencing the particular line my office can then go through and ensure that the references to 500 are changed to 1000 throughout. >> okay, that would be my motion that we duplicate the file, move one with the new amended version that is [inaudible] minor change that goes to the full board to -- >> november 5. >> and then we keep one in committee that has a new distance from existing mcd's of 1000 feet. >> okay. so we'll dunely duplicate the file and the first motion is to prove move the previously amended to the full board to be heard on november 5 and take that without objection. then the second motion is to make the amendment that super /sroeuz oup supervisor avalos

described from 500 feet to 1000 feet so we'll take that without objection. would you like to continue -- >> call to chair. >> continue call of the chair without objection. thank you. okay madam clerk, can you please call items five through ten together? >> i teams number five through ten are the ordinances /tpwraoepb building codes by repealing and placing the 2010 codes with provisions with codes and directing the clerk of the board state agencies. >> okay. just wait one second to let the chamber clear. if folks could please take their conversations outside. if folks would please take

their conversations outside, we have further business to conduct. okay. okay, go ahead. >> my name is clerk means, i'm an inspector for the technical services division there and what we have today for you is a reenactment of our building codes based on the new set of codes that california issues every three years. by way of just the rule's short /-r /h*eugsly, san francisco came up with its own building codes around the turn of the century, 1900, late 1800s and that carried on through with new ordinances and earthquakes and fires and things like that that had to be addressed. after

>> for your consideration. planning department makes an environmental review, a cost effectiveness study on energy and green building codes. there's the three hold in land use, ten days for the mayor to sign, 30 days for the effective date and the publish /sher needs to get the code at the end and publish them, come back to staff, staff are trained, there's outreach and all that. become effective january 1 so there's a fairly tight timeline to the beginning of year, no room for anything. we have to really stick to the schedule. at this point i think we have a pretty good set of consensus

documents that i have submitted. the general policy of the department is to carry forward the existing amendment that's been working for us and developed and working for us since 1900 roughly so these are been reviewed many times over and over and modified, tweaked, perfected, but they're what works in san francisco as opposed to what works in general area of california. we delete unnecessary or duplicate amendments and the codes developed in the model documents. they do address some of the things we have previously addressed and so occasionally we are able to delete some things and make our codes simpler. we do strive to make maintain a current standard of safety. there's one last part, that and that's legislation that happens right in the middle of all this. there's this middle that we

give you and then there's legislation that passes and become effective and become put into our code after our submittal that are given you. the submittals that are given you include some that are expected to go through by the end of the year. significant changes in this cycle -- chapter 11b of the building code is our disabled access to commercial buildings and the 2010 ada standards were adopted by the federal and california and that's the new format going forward. san francisco's made no amendments to that chapter. there's a new chapter 34b, mandatory [inaudible] legislation that you're familiar with. that is already passed and in there. there's an ordinance update for

toxic soils and ground water and there's two previous ordinances that were passed last cycle but got overridden in the process of this submittal. and then the ordinance becoming effective and then -- and that process -- the two ordinances, including partner a and then the other one was some access to commission sending packets to the mar mayor's office on disability. we have a green building codes that's kind of followed the history of san francisco where san francisco had a green building code or ordinance before there was a green building code so there there was no code to modify, so we brought it into the building

code as the green building standard portion of the building code, but since california now has a green building code and that's mandatory in california, we're able to amend it just like we are mechanical code, electrical and plumbing code. minor changes -- building code wise -- >> i don't think we need to go through minor changes. >> that's it then if you don't mind. any questions? >> i don't think so. thank you for the presentation. so we will now open up items five through ten to public comment. is there any public comment on these items. seeing none, public comment is closed. and can we forward items five through ten with recommendation? that will be the order. madam clerk can you call item number 11.

discussion on board of supervisors file number 130781, special finance taxing law. we have with us >> thank you for having us here today. i welcome the opportunity to talk to you about the mandatory soft story retro fit program. the ordinance that you see before you, what i wanted to do was explain about what we're working on here that will be at the board right now. to give you some context i think some of you may be familiar with the requirements of the soft story ordinance, but to give you an idea of what the requirements entail, it's looking at the building stocks that we saw significant damage in after the loma earth quake. we've noticed an issue for

years and have been trying to deal with this in a comprehensive way that the conducive to the property owners and small businesses that are in them. we think this affects roughly 6,000 businesses that have been -- 6,000 buildings that have been noticed and about half would be required to retro fit. about 7,000 local employees. we've seen from other devastating earthquakes around the world that these small businesses are is most venerable businesses and if they're damaged by earthquakes they'd likely go out of business and not return. that would change the character of san francisco so we want to help that but supporting these buildings. the ordinances before you is talking about special financing option so one of the things mayor lee deserves cred sit for is that he wasn't comfortable

putting forward these ordinances unless we had financing options available for these owners. we had a voter approved general obligation bond for 350 million dollars and only about 60 million of that are used. we know people have a hard time applying for public financing options but it's important to know they're there. we started talking to banks about two years ago and they have all agreed to be flexible, help owners refi and pull out money or a second based loan, an equity loan, a construction loan. we have the big banks, the small opportunity lenders and the small banks and we want to work with all of them.

for those of you not looked into this, there's a clear track record of tieing retro fits to sustain ability. and the replacement resources needed to build a new building. this is a way to use that economisting green finance program to be able to issue a public financing to these buildings which is paid back over property taxes over 20 years. it's another option we have for property ordinary owners trying to comply with the ordinance. >> i want to say as one of those bankers that got involved with the program i think it's great. i do know last week, wednesday, the san francisco association

of realtors down at fort mason talking about this so your outreach was great because the turnout there with all the building owners and all the stakeholders was tremendous so i just want to congratulate you on your outreach in this program and working with all the other banks 'cause all the banks were there, everybody was represented and it was a very good event so i want to say i really appreciate your outreach on this program. it is for important. for better or worse we live in a n seismic active city. i want to thank you for all your efforts over this /pa*sz past year. >> thank you commissioner. >> i believe you all have a postcard in front of you. obviously it's a marketing challenge to get all the

details of an ordinance into a 3 by 5 card there. it has a link to our website which is www.sfcaps.org. >> do we have public comment on item number four? seeing none, public comment is closed. any other commissioner comments? this is great. i really appreciate you coming and talking about this. like i said, it is very important and congratulations on that event last week at fort mason. that was a great turnout. >> yeah, to have 1000 property owners in a room was great. we have an open door downstairs in
