starting at midnight, and they literally have to wait until midnight to pick the game up and so it is... >> so your host is off the clock at 11 p.m. >> that is, yes. >> which means that you would turn the music off. >> i believe that they want to have the allowed use of music until one, just in case, but it is going to be a scaled back presence and activation at 11. it is going to start winding down and they are just going to machine the line as it stands and wait for people to pick their i had ems up and their games up and then leave. >> okay. >> other questions from the commissioners? >> in the market is where this is happening? >> yes. sorry. and so, is that like in the middle of the block? >> it is, it is towards, it is towards, it is towards fourth, and it is as you go down the

block there is a diesel game on the corner and a new converse store and so that is the location and it is exactly across from the walgreens and the levis. >> i was trying to think of the possible residential in the area. >> no, there is a hotel. >> there is hotels. >> and these ends and the ritz. in the area. >> and that is, yes, and in regards to that, what we have made clear to the client and to our dj, that we are going to keep the bass out of the music because that is what tends to travel and we are going to monitor the upper frequency and we are going to actively monitor the content, of the dj. and the performance and so that way, if he decides to go off the menu, so to speak that we can reel it back in and bring those situations under a control, but.

>> and have you contact with the hotels? >> the four seasons is actually hosting the pr portion of this. >> okay. >> they are well aware of it. >> all right. >> and have you guys done an event like this at game stop before? >> game stop has hosted events like this before. >> i am just curious for the staff or at least ma*ib because it is going to one? >> yes, formally we would do it in the office but anything that goes after ten p.m. and it is outdoor we bring it to you. >> great. >> any other questions? >> would you be opposed to at least have the communication with you know the head of security of the hotels, in case you do get a complaint that they can call you. >> absolutely. no complaint with that and no reservations with that. we do have them as part of this. >> so that they can call you directly rather than go through

the police. >> and absolutely, and we can coordinate that with the four seasons and i can check in with the other hotel and we can coordinate through the area, with just a few others right there. >> but, the names escape me. >> commissioner campagnoli? >> thank you. and so you do have some ten bs? >> yes. >> you are hiring, could i ask how many? >> that is yet to be agreed upon is what it boils down to, the station itself is making the assessment and going to let us know what we are going to have on site. >> you have met with them? >> yes. i am here for the sound permit, for the after hours sound permit but there has been a variety of different portions of this, and the head of security for play station has been in contact with central. central, southern. >> southern. >> sorry. >> and what is your (inaudible) called? >> and how many? >> and so they did they are

expecting, around 500 is what we are, is what we are enthusiastickly estimating. >> this is a game release? >> ps 4. >> the new system. >> yes. >> it is the play station four. and not my dem graphic, either, but i know a lot of people who get a lot out of the video games. and >> so this is a young crowd that you are expecting? >> the demographic is 14 to 35 when you look at video games as a whole. >> yeah. >> it leans towards males but it is a mixed crowd and it is 14 to 35. and so, because of the price of this item, i am thinking that it is going to be in talking with the play station people they are going to see a slightly more mature crowd and it will not be a bunch of 15-year-olds running aaround unattended because this is going to cost some money. >> right. >> all right.

i think that we have heard as much as we would like to hear. so thank you. >> thank you. >> and any police comments on this? >> all right. and is there any public comment about this? >> seeing none, i have the public comment closed and the matter is now with the commission. >> commissioner campagnoli? >> what we have heard from southern? >> you should have the police conditions in your folders. at the very end, southern station, and sent these today and they were unable to attend this evening. >> okay. >> and do you see it, and commissioner campagnoli? >> yeah. >> and i need these back, though. >> right there. and all right. >> all right, so, i am happy to take a motion. >> i move to approve, is there a second? >> with the police conditions. >> sorry. move to approve with the police

conditions. >> aye. >> seconded by commissioner akers. >> any discussion? do we want at all to limit the hours, i mean that they said three to one is really just three to 6 is when they are setting up. and then, i don't know if anyone has any feelings about after midnight or... >> so 6:00 to 1:00 are the hours. >> yeah. and i think that they said 6:00 to 11 are the hours and, then they want to continue playing some music 11 to 1. >> and which is essentially 6 to 1. >> yeah. >> true. >> and i am thinking that as the people go through and to the crowd starts to disperse, i think that what they are trying to do is giving those people who have been waiting in line for hours, you know, something to sort of, and i think that like if this is in a more residential area, i would be a little more concerned, but it is right there on market street. and as long as... and there will be there, people there

controlling the sound. i feel like they have done a lot of connecting to people, so that if there is a issue, with the sound then they will be responsive to it. and so, i think that it should be okay. but i would understand if people wanted to restrict the time also. >> i threw it out there, we don't have to keep going with it. >> i think that it is okay, they have communication with the security at the hotel and says that the southern has a right to shut it down if it is really too noisy. >> okay. so there is a motion and a second? >> could we take a vote, then? >> okay. on the motion commissioner akers? >> aye. >> hyde. >> aye. >> lee. >> aye. >> campagnoli. >> aye. >> and president tan. >> aye. >> so, congratulations, and the permit has been approved and we will move on to the last parts of our meeting.

i don't know where commissioner joseph is. >> all right. so, just two more items. commissioner comments and questions is next. so, commissioner hyde, why don't you take it away. >> all right. >> a couple of comments, i have gone to the international drug policy reform conference in denver. and it was an awesome, awesome, event. and i met the woman who wrote the book the new jim crow and went to a lot of formerly incarcerated people and hear the meetings about was based after having a low drug non-violent felony, and it was just a really eye opening thing, and dan safe also did a little bit of a meeting with clubs, and stuff like that that i attended and then, on another note, i just wanted to notice

that reed has passed away and he is a big hero of mine and so i am sorry to hear that. and just wanted to get some words here at the commission. >> thank you. >> any other commissioner comments and questions? >> just want to say that i had the pleasure of working with lou reed back in the day. and i was really sad that he passed away, i am with you. >> any other comments? from commissioners? >> i just want to say that i want to ghost ship on october 19th, was it? and i forget, but it was a halloween party and i thought that it was a great way to activate an old port that is going to be developed over the next 20 years. but nice to see, some life infused into that area, and it was a really well run and the great art and music. >> and any other comments, if not, we will move on to the

next item. and the public comment and there is no one here. >> all right, we will move on to item 7, new business requests for future agenda items. >> commissioner hyde? >> yeah. all right, so, since i was at the drug policy reform conference and i talked to dan safe, i would like to have dan safe come here and i would like to have a conversation just, and i don't know if we need to, you know, they want us to do anything or whatever, but i would like to hear from them, and i would like to talk about how we can at least have a conversation around harm reduction in night clubs. and i also think that it would be interesting to hear about the new drugs that are out there and some of the ways this they warn people and what they tell people not to do and i think that this is a great message to get out there. and if we can stop harm from

happening that would be great. so i would like to schedule that for the first meeting of december, if we could. i thought that if i offered a date then it would be helpful. also, since halloween just passed, i know that cami has talked to people about halloween. and i think that we should do something to work to see if the city can't somehow get a parade going, or something like that, because, i think that a lot of other cities have parades and have the ability for things like this to happen and i think that our city could do this, and i know that there is a lot of public interest in having something like that happen. i don't think that we should close off all of the streets and have people party because i don't think that really works, but i think that if we had some sort of organized party of some sort, i don't want to put any limits or ideas, i just think

that we should think about that. >> and also i just want to ask about ten b, and if we had heard from scott weiner's office about when they will be coming to talk about that. >> i have a meeting last week with an aid regarding numerous issues as p pertains to outdoor events which is where i think that the ten b sort of fits in. and they are not prepared yet with anything, to move forward publicly on it, but there is still movement. and just, and i don't have any dates, specific for you at all. >> and okay. so, do you want the halloween discussion, or like they did it in something in the calendar. >> and i think that this might be something to calendar, but i think that there needs to be a little more inner office and discussion in with the people

that are from the neighborhoods who are interested in helping. and i think that that is why i want to go because there are people from the neighborhoods who are hoping to participate and i think that that, if that is true, then that is a great way to maybe, incorporate the neighbors, and stuff into things that we do. >> great. >> and if i could ask, i guess, that at some point for you to in touch with those neighbors, to find out when you think that might be best organized, and then, we direct the conversation, specifically as we can, those of us who were around for the last ten years, remember, a lot about attempts and even this year, i think that the discussion around bringing something back for halloween, and we learned that it is still too soon, which is really the short answer, but, it does not mean that we can't

hear from community, if you think that they have something to say, and i do want to add, just for context, that, we are beginning to be concerned as a city around the day of the dead. and we saw a huge increase in activity and numbers and in the mission, and some behaviors that were not so positive with respect to that. and sort of unsponsored gathering as well which is the day after halloween and so again, the context of that conversation, keep in mind that we may have a new challenge and certainly the police will have a new challenge. and if that continues to grow. >> and i also wanted to just add, if you don't mind, when we, when the entertainment commission was working on halloween, part of what we did was a light parade and the person who did it was a guy named jim lights and i would be happy to give you his contact information and so that he can explain to you the good parts

and the challenges, of doing the parade. and just also, you need to know that a parade, of any kind, of any length, requires a tremendous amount of city resources, and again, i am not sure that i agree with josylen that they having been involved with halloween and the castro and our attempt to take it out of the castro into a big venue and the challenges that have, and it might be too soon, politically and for that to happen. and but, i encourage you to meet with neighbors and the neighbors have the best voice in the city. >> and it is next year, too, halloween falls on a friday and i think that, you know, the police kind of really pointed out the officer that having it on thursday was so many advantage to distribute all of that and i don't know that people want to party on halloween and get dressed up.

>> i have a question. was this, was your idea a daytime parade or a nighttime parade? >> >> i am thinking early evening after work, 5 to 7:00 and i just remember that new york has a great parades and new york has a ton of issues and it is a huge city. >> we have to be cautious so we don't have that conversation right now. and so i am thinking that there has to be some way to get the communities involved and because the community has asked if there was some way to look into it. >> and everybody else, started to do the in-house thing and we all have an extra day, that, you know, you don't have a busy weekend and then all of a sudden, halloween is in the middle of the week and the

clubs want to rent out the venue. and obviously, you know how that goes. and we were there when, when there was security issues and you know, when we really tried to have that castro party and i think that was a great thing and again, like, audry says that politically it is a stuff one, but you know, a deversion, a way from, you know, our venues can only hold so much. >> and when the things start moving along, with twitter and texting they move around. and they tend to... >> and the next one... >> and it is to reiterate what she said. >> yeah. >> and okay, that is. and okay, so, any other future business items? and i know that we got carried away there. >> okay. seeing none, is there any public comment? >> seeing none, this meeting is now adjourned. thank you, all. >> good. >>out.

>> hi, i'm japanese with the san francisco public utilities combination sometime people call me sewer girl our systems has served the area for 1 hundred and 50 years we're planning you understand public health and our

environment don't think that so come in down and see how >> >> the meeting will now come to order. welcome to the meeting. my name is malia cohen. to my left is supervisor tang and campos. i would like to thank sfgtv for broadcasting this meeting. >> madam clerk, are there any announcements? >> the clerk: please make sure to silence all cell phones and electronic devices. speaker cards should be submitted to the clerk. items will be appear on the board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise stated.

>> very good. please call item no. 1. >> the clerk: item 1: 131008:hearing - eastern neighborhoods plan infrastructure improvements]1310081.sponsor: cohenhearing on the city's strategy for funding and implementing the estimated $250,000,000-$390,000,000 of infrastructure improvements that have been identified to support new development in the eastern neighborhoods plan. 10/8/13; received and assigned to the government audit and oversight committee. >> the clerk: item 1: 131008:hearing - eastern neighborhoods plan infrastructure improvements]1310081.sponsor: cohenhearing on the city's strategy for funding and implementing the estimated $250,000,000-$390,000,000 of infrastructure improvements that have been identified to support new development in the eastern neighborhoods plan. 10/8/13; received and assigned to the government audit and oversight >> the clerk: item 1: 131008:hearing - eastern neighborhoods plan infrastructure improvements]1310081.sponsor: cohenhearing on the city's strategy for funding and implementing the estimated $250,000,000-$390,000,000 of infrastructure improvements that have been identified to support new development in the eastern neighborhoods plan. 10/8/13; received and assigned to the government audit and oversight committee. >> 1234 this is an item i introduced a few weeks ago to discuss the status. the key component of the planning process was a development of open space and transportation plans that identify key projects that are semi to supporting neighborhood growth. when the plan was adopted, it was actually estimated over the 20-year build out of the eastern neighborhood that we would need approximately $250-390 million to fund these

improvements. these were estimated only at the time and now we find we'll receive only $116 million for these and that is a funding gap in improvement. we have not seen many of the infrastructure projects the plan has implemented. in some cases the key transit improvements are under review. we have all agreed that most of the development is needed and appreciated. at the city we must live up to our end of the bargain and provide infrastructure to support those that are living here as well as the future for those that will live here. last month we were at the meeting for the eastern neighborhood plan and the questions i heard were the

promised benefits for streetscape and infrastructure improvement. we knew there was a funding gap. we hope to begin to develop a multi-agency strategy to address the funding gaps and some of these projects implemented before we entitle hundreds of more units in the neighborhood. we have done a good job in the development community has been successful in moving the projects forward. i think we as a city have done a good enough job finding and implementing the infrastructure needed to insure these neighborhoods stay walkable and livable and transit first. i don't expect we'll have all the answers today but i think we need to have a conversations and this is a first step in that conversation. we have a series of departments here today who are going to assist

us in understanding the pipeline. in some ways the city is thinking that we maybe able to close the funding gap. we are going to hear from jon ram -- john graham of the planning department. thank you. >> thank you, good morning, supervisors. i want to thank supervisor cohen for calling this hearing. this is an issue that has come up for several years now and now more acutely felt this is happening all over the city and this is an issue we need to address and an issue that the planning department cares very deeply about. i'm one of several speakers today, we have various people here today to talk about this. we have a presentation that we'll try to get through quickly but

there is a lot of information we would like to share with you. i will start by saying the story is perhaps a little bit better than the perception. certainly there is a lack of funding primarily because of the lack of development activity. with the development activity that is coming we feel fairly confident that some components of the proposed plan, the amenities that are proposed in the plan particularly on the open space and public facility side can be addressed. the other aspect of the improvements particularly around transportation and streetscape improvement you have a very high price tag. we think we have some very good information for you coming out of the mayor's task force and we can address those issues as well. i think it's important to point out the improvements were not all addressed through impact fees. the impact fees are only part of the sources

for those improvements. what it has done is allowed dollars for some of those spaces and we are able to leverage dollars from other sources whether it be state grant monies or other developments doing those kinds of improvements. there is a number of ways the impact fees help us address these issues. having said that, i would like to move forward quickly and discuss what we have for you today and set some contacts. we are going to talk about the contacts and pipeline and the information we set out to make some of these improvements, the funding strategy and how we propose to deliver the projects and how we are supposed to prioritize them. it's important to talk about regional growth because it's one larger

picture. obviously region is growing and projected to grow by 2 million people in the next 5 years and almost 100,000 housing units and we think it's because of our quality of life and the region in the country and the state. san francisco is expected to accommodate about the 15 percent of that growth. that is a small number but we still need to accommodate about 190,000 jobs and 90,000 housing units and that will take us to a million people. to reach these numbers, as you can see we would need to on an average basis produce about 6,000 jobs a year. we have not come close to those numbers in the last 15

or 20 years. it's the pace of growth and i realize it's troubling to some but those numbers reflect our share of regional growth. again, just to look at the recent plans, the department has spent the last 15 years doing plans for those parts of the city where the growth will happen. if you look at this map, this is the growth plan for housing. the eastern neighborhoods represents about 12 percent of the city's growth. so, it does represent a fair amount, but it does not represent the majority of growth that is proposed in the city that is largely in the downtown south of market and shipyard and candlestick and treasure island. these are neighborhoods that represent roughly 12 percent of the growth in the city coming as a whole and on-the-job side.

where you see the vast majority of sides that are proposed on the downtown south of market and hunters point with about 8 thousand of those jobs in eastern neighborhoods. just to give you a run down. all of the numbers that you see right now represent the numbers that are projected in housing and jobs and all of the areas where we have done plans. we have done plans in these areas for 80,000 housing units and 8,000 jobs. it's projected for 2040. that 15 percent that i talked about earlier, we are still short particularly on-the-job side

accommodating 50,000 new jobs. all the planning we've done we need to do more to figure out how to accommodate our share of regional growth. to focus more on the neighborhood, as you know the neighborhood plan areas there were 5 of those plan areas, sewn -- sonoma and the water front where a lot of changes were happening prior to the development of the plan. in the middle of this area is mission bay with it's substantial job growth as well. if you look at the pipeline in eastern neighborhoods. this gives you a quick graphic to show you where the projects are growing. it's pretty scattered across the entire neighborhood. this is showing you the status of some of these projects whether they are under review, or approved or under

construction. there is a pretty broad geography of where this is happening on both the job and housing side. if there is any concentration, there is the transit corridor which is the plan to focus along the corridor where it could be accommodated on the streets that have more transit service. just to look again at the numbers, the initial projection were there the plan were to produce about 10,000 jobs and 3 million square feet of non-residential space. the current plan of what has been completed and the pipeline is 700 of those units have been completed or under way and about a million square feet
