i live in the mission. the eir states the pipeline unit totaled 25 thousand more than the 31 thousand plus units sought by the housing needs allocation for the 2345078 to the current period and it would allow the additional capacity of more units. the city is over producing market rates and failing to produce middle-class housing. for the prior 1999 did market rate was over product of one hundred and 53 percent of the market rate production for the 52 of the low income father are

target was met. the work on this document and the previous housing eir and element itself since 20005 and this one since nodding. she brought this flawed document to this point. i strongly support and urge you to grant another month for consideration of the documents and actually at least march third and at most april 3rd due to inadequate notice. thank you >> thank you. any further any public comment? okay. seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner sugaya >> yeah. i start with one

comment. that a question actually to staff. has this been scheduled before the historic presentation commission >> i can't speak to the previous circulated eir but this one has not. >> i know the staff should give consideration to having a hearing before the historic preservation commission under charter under the referral of duties in which the matter that pertain to the historic resources and in effects to those resources must be circulated and i find such a statement is contained in the collective summary that the eir

could result in a potentially impact to resource etc. so my contention is you need to a circulate this through the historic preservation commission at some point. and, secondly, there's been allocation this the notice for this has been inadequate that's a legal issue without going through a long protracted discussion between attorneys i can only accept what is before us as being adequate. i am open, however, to extending the comment period not this particular hearing but a comment hearing it's for another three weeks. i don't know how the other commissioners will feel we can get to that in a motion if there is some agreement

>> commissioner moore. >> i believe that all argument which for further clarification have been brought forward respectfully and without having all the sections of the document in front of me to which the comments pertain i feel there's a consensus between a lost people extending the timeframe would be beneficial. i don't think we note to artificially need to extend it further. i ask we consider 45 days many issues are complex i heard thirty, 45 and 60 i think 60 mike might be two long i could settle for 45 but i will be supportive that the composition

recommends thirty and the comment period is 45 days from the release so the question is whether how far beyond the foy days our proposing to go >> your commenting open february not the third but 45 days from that particular date to hold it. >> excuse me. sarah jones. i want to raise what chapter 31 of the administrative code around the eir period thatdz up to the discretion. but what sequa says about a comment period open an eir is the period of 45 days the

maximum period appropriate under sequa is 60 days under complex circumstances so that's what is stated under state law that's the guidelines on comment period >> commissioner borden. >> yeah. i think, however, you get to 60 days make sense prps i think we've seen this document the recirculation of the 2009 document i understand it and this may go to the pc to provide another forum but people want to be able to provide comments and i don't think we need to hear it again. >> so can i confirm with the city attorney than whatever we can make a motion to ask for an

extension or with the eir extension. >> i'm from the city attorney's office you could advise staff. >> commissioner sugaya i want to go ahead and make the recommendations to staff will basically the environmental officer to extend the period out to 60 days. i don't know do we make it in the form of a motion or - >> from the commissioners to go from foy to 60 days. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> any further comments.

okay >> seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioners we can move into you're next item. that places you on item 16 for case 2013 z and m amendments to the zoning map and the downtown area plan and golden gate avenue proposed amendment

>> good afternoon vice president wu aaron stair from the departments legislative staff. there are two items dpirs it is the zoning amendment for golden gate avenue. from r.c. 4 so the church may participate in the t dr program and the second would expand the downtown area plan to include saint bonding if his. the general plan is required so that the ordinance property by supervisor kim would be consistent with the plan. it's city mark that requires both the rezoning and the general plan amendment be and then by historic preservation

commission. they reviewed is and recommended approval. the city tdr area. those properties then are permitted to develop an access of their ratio but not both the districts. the application will happen over the rezoning requirement they'll be required to submit a rehabilitation and maintenance plan it described any rehabilitation work that guarantees the upkeep of the church. this is recommend for approval of the ordinance and the general plan amendment. the full basis of our positive

recommendation is outlined but in summary it will not negatively impact the soourdz neighborhood or any adjacent property and hadn't been part of the rezoning that concludes my presentation but i believe supervisor kim is here as well as the representatives saint bonding if his >> thank you supervisor kim. >> thank you chair wu. doesn't to side you and all our commissioners. actually, i think that planning has gone through the details of the presentation but our office supports this golden gate from r.c. 4 to r.c. depression. just a little bit about boniface

one of the reasons we support this the church is an important asset to the neighborhood it houses the academy ate an amazing 4 to 89 program that is larger free to the folks in our foivend attained. they also house a program in the morning where they allow anyone off the streets to come in to sleep or get breakfast when the shelter is closed. they've been doing love things it's an important block st. anthony's is rebuilding their kitchen and one hundred units of affordable housing next door. we have saint anthony's across the street their service our low income population in the neighborhood. i want to appreciate the work

coming from the neighborhood this guarantees that the rescoping is in the public interests that i they establish the project given the stakeholders comfort that there will not produce anything negative. this has taken me time to understa understand. acknowledging this isn't isn't the only chech church we've gotten this request from. saint bonding if his is important in the community. this legislation has a broad support population and my

colleagues will describe in brief. thank you, commissioner i'm having trouble talking to the maximums to the project and i appreciate our support to the proposal >> thank you project sponsor. >> commissioners. director ram. my name is a edward i was asked by saint bonding if his to rezone the property for the sale of the tdr. it's one of the most architecturally significant building in the tenderloin. the original building was completed in 1902. the great earthquake of 1906

destroyed nearly the entire structure. incredibly the main tore remained standing out of the earthquake and incorporated into the ed face. therefore the church as it stands today includes the largest of the architecture features from 1902 with the remainder built from the plans and the ashes of the original church. it's adorned with missouri attorney's fees see and i'll see the grand organ is a masterpiece. it was from 1915.

set the record straight bonding if his is the most beautiful architecture element have the stained glass windows the 2 seven hundred windows were designed by one of the premier art glass designers in the world. st. bone if his remains one of the genres of the churches. having withstood the destruction a recent proposal for restoration was at the $2 million. the church ability to sell the tdr should cover the complete restoration. over the past several months

we've worked extensively and found the preservation overwhelming. we hope you'll support this. thank you >> thank you. any public comment on this item? oh, i'm sorry >> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is a father tommy king i'm the pastor of the st. bone if his church after rupturing from admissiony work. during my time there i've developed a lot for the people of the tenderloin. st. bone if his plays two

important roles. first, it is a place of bout and spiritual tranquility. particularly the old stained glass windows provide humanizing beauty to a neighborhood filled with dehumanizeizing poverty and invention. people come in instantly to enjoy the beauty and can meditate and pray. the church has hosted did abductal project 2, 3, 49 back part of the church. many of the people that sleep in the church during the day were on the streets the night before because there was not adequate space for them in shelters. at any given time there's to 90 people resting in the pews of

the bone if his check up. as you imagine it takes a toil on the building. i'm aware the building is unique in all the united states. informing for those two reasons st. bone if his is a wonderful place in the tenderloin. it provides a place next to the academy it's a private catholic school for families in the tenderloin. because parents only pay $50 per month most of their intuitions is covered by grants. approximately 80 percent go on to college. for students in the tenderloin this is an incredible static.

the majority of people in bone if his serves our very poor. many parishioners work two jobs to feed their families. it's a multi facility. our church collections are never enough to meet our operating costs. we don't have adequate fund to preserve a large building such large projects like window restoration. as windows fail our only option we'll cover them with plywood and perhaps to insert a clear

glass. this indeed would be a traffic loss. in order to continue it's social outreach programs we need our support. we can't do it without a new source of if you happened and our ability to sell tdr would go a long way to sustain the windows. thank you very much for your time >> thank you okay opening it up for public comment. >> patricia. years ago when let's tear down the church, i ended up in utah with the homes trust to preserve those buildings. i preceded to come back to san francisco and go through all the

catholic churches and i was in st. bonding if his i noticed a little girl sitting in the front by herself and i asked her where her mother was they are a couple of doors down i come into her everyday because it's about how far and safe. that's why st. bonding if his and the windows need to be saved >> thank you. any public comment on this item? > >> nevertheless to say i know this is a great church whatever they want give them it.

i personally was married there my background was italian and my husband was german they also worked at st. bonding if his and we teaspoon this tradition the same family line did the plastically here for the city hall. so we're all connected and have to work together no matter what. >> thank you. any further public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner moore >> move to approve. >> sorry. commissioner sugaya

>> yeah. i think as one who comes from historic preservation background the tdr program is one to assist the nonprofit. there are some tax credit programs but they're only available to commercial families and make money think buildings so those are not available there's a way to do it but it's tricky and there's other programs but this is one that has an immediate effect and the building that my office is in the owner of the building sold

tdred. i'm pleased to support the motion >> commissioner moore. >> i can't help saying i wish we would have found some innovative tools. commissioners there's a motion moved and seconded to adapt in. commissioner borden >> commissioner hillis arrest commissioner moore commissioner sugaya and commissioner wu. >> that motion passes unanimously 5 to zero and places you on item 17. at 1700 my own street. please not excuse me. that on november 7, 2013, the project sponsor asked the project to be continued and it was super is seated to

january 2, 0014, with a vote of 3. commissioners the project sponsor is requesting that item be continued indefinitely >> (calling names). >> and this is any public comment? only on the matter of continuance that's only what we're discussing first >> thank you. i'm candice mckenzie you've received a letter from me asking you to
