commissioner borden arrest commissioner hillis. commissioner sugaya. and commissioner wu >> so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously and place you an items 4. the san francisco 6 adaptation of finding under the california environmental quality act of gentle referral and request for permit authorization and a mike smith. so mr. gillman gave you guys a go presentation. i'm going to skip to the necessary stuff. 3 of the sites are located with within the city's coastal zone the lake merced and the south wind facility and the north wind

facility. pursuant to planning code section 330 the that planning zone application is required as the project site is located within the coastal zone boundary. the project is appeal able to the commission because it's a major works project. the lake merced facility is currently in an undeveloped area adjacent to the access road that is off of lake merced boulevard it's the entrance to the pump station. the south windmill site is located at the western end of the golden gate park that's occupied by an existing well petroleum station while the surrounded area is used by the rec and park and contains stock appeals of concrete and other debris.

the north lake well site also open western combrp is currently occupied by an existing well station. the site is surround by trees and bounded by fulton to the north. the proposed wall facilities within golden gate park will replace rec and park irrigation windshields and as such, they don't - the windshields will occupy the same windshields. the south windmill replacement facility is within the site of the former richard treatment plant that was largely removed in 1996. the proposed lake merced will not effect the visiting because they will have the voibltd from

the road which is lake merced. and it will have green roof. the property lake merced site will not adversely effect the lake merced resources that is located in an area that doesn't provide any raeblg use next to the existing pimp station. it who access any local trails or docks. staff received two calls from the neighbors regarding the project neither of which expressed on a opinion only interests. you must - as part of the approval you must adapt the sequa finding related to the eir and there's a jeopardy plan referral motion included and

earlier. we have a lot of restrictions on the other uses from the lakes in the sierra and we're trying to implement more storage as we know to be able to address our problems in years they're maybe driveway years but the additional water that could be obtained from the city and county of san francisco and so long as the effects are mitigated on the environment and that makes sense because san francisco has the lottery per capita of any places in california. but sometimes we're at the expense of our greenery we're putting in a lot of dry stuff it doesn't look good. maybe we can get a better allocate and use water in a more traditionally way if we're

providing 4 million glands. i know the system is a part of the plan and i understand the economics involved but certainly i'm hoping the city and a parks can be well-handled to get enough water to keep them green. commissioner sugaya. >> yeah. i made a motion but i have a request. on the south windmill site the map identified the ground sdurngs in red and extended all the way to your site and ant into the area that's already been acquit disturbed. i also observed the proposed native grass plantings will be

in an unlimited area. is there some activity your coordinating with the department of rec and park to actually make improvement to that desire area then just around your facility? we don't have any formal activity that we are coordinating with rec and park both departments are well aware. process actually of drafting and memoranda of understand for the project that governors the access and obligation of both party. maintaining is that as part of the bond issue that was passed also november 2012 for recreation and park improvements one of those activities the rec

and park want to improve that jeopardy area in golden gate park. but it's their responsibility to move forward first with that >> thank you. i wanted to ask that because my firm has some improvement with the murphy windmill and hits restoration so it's been american people eyesore. >> (laughter). >> to put that mildly. >> walk a few steps away and energy this moonlight environment so encourage the rec and park department to do something. >> commissioner antonini. >> just a followup to my easily remarks just on the usage of the water within san francisco. i want to employment how nicely the rewrite has been landscaped and how neat and clean it looks

it's a well done project. but i'm less enthusiastic about the green areas to the east. their getting better but maybe a little bit better of management of the launders would be a big compliment. i'm not sure i like the bed grass on sunset you boulevard it turns out brown and kachdz garage so maybe we can cut that and manage it better. that's agenda for another day but having arthur a little bit of extra water helps >> please call the question. >> on the matter of the consideration of dalmatian of the finding there was a motion and acceptance to prove in the confrontational zone permit authorization. >> commissioner antonini. >> commissioner borden. >> commissioner hillis. commissioner moore. commissioner sugaya and lt.
