hunter view so not all the buildings look alike. block 10 will be the same jointly venture but the buildings in feats 3 we'll put it through a procurement process >> i assume this is all housing authority land at the end of the day who owns the unit? so for the affordable folks who enter into a long-term document so right now for example, we're negotiating a 2k3wr0u7d lease for the x a parcel it encompass the tax credit and a ground lease for the rest of the

infrastructure that's part of the phase 2 b as we move through feasibility anticipate sub ground leases so we'll peel off parcels as we are going to build the affordable unit and as block 8 there will be discussions about the ownership >> is that sold-out right. >> that would subsidize the rest of the project. >> but it would subsidize the 2 hundred and 60 some unit. >> that's correct. >> thank you. >> commissioner moore. >> i appreciate commissioner borden asking some of the questions when we think of this project. i want to take a positive stand and i really have to say i'm proud of the project and those are the reasons removing a

project that's less than institutional is barely something that takes the former i might be using the wrong word barracks moving into to a real neighborhood in terms of housing diversity and religions to a larger sense of community which is really the dna of san francisco that makes the city special. i think the master plan produced by dan is wonderful and i'm really happy we're achieving those are architects who have established themselves to be the architects for this prospective jurors project.

when you build avenue, i was speaking to commissioner wu is to save on how you design housing to make it affordable. that's when you skip essential detail and making it a slightly more institutional looking promise. we're basically paying attention to everything and i'm not only proud but this will go into the national archives of a wonderful project. one of the things you could masquerade it would have been easy so we'll have large terraces but what we're doing we're replicating the top graph of the best neighborhood with the design and detail that will

producing produce a wonderful neighborhood. the question i have and this is a question to ms. hayward the thing that surprise me we've done this since 2008 it's 6 years later what's your schedule of taking down this project and moving forward how can we realize it not only the public and affordable unit are mature enough to take to the other market to complete the neighborhood can you answer that whoever? >> i'm going to let pam answer that question. >> good afternoon. i'm in the mayor's office of housing of housing and a community development. it's been awhile shins i since

this is in development this is the first sf hope development there's been a lot of growing pains and a lot of different negotiations and legal documents that need to be created, and solutions to hud. we need hydro to approve u approve frngsz the grounded agreements with the developers along with the different furnished. that said phase one to be perfecting honest once it did get under construction it move forward rapidly. there was a fire on block 4 that caused a bit of delay, however, once it was under construction it move forward pretty quickly. phase 2 is going to move more quickly preliminary because we have the opportunity to apply

for funding from the state in july for block 10 for originally scheduled to be done next year. so as the funding opportunities present themselves the construction and development will continue to occur. >> good luck. >> thank you. >> commissioner sugaya. >> yes. the john stuart company can i understand a little bit about the management structure that exists for this structure underlying it the hurgdz and the mayor's office has an involvement but, you know, funding is coming from various sources but in terms of the managing the development are you also the managers of the property itself in terms of all

the ongoing like you were mentioning tenant complaints fixing the shower and sings is that your involvement and in terms of the market rate component will you still be on board with that or is that farmed out to another entity? >> so for phase one we're the management company and phase two is the housing authority so far as the market rate parcels if i had a crystal ball i wouldn't tell you it would probably be another company. >> okay. thank you. >> thank you. i have one final question. i think, you know, it belonged more to the design phase but can you remind us where the retail

is in relation to this its mostly housing how the neighborhood functions >> right now there is no retail currently contemplated it's a question of is p there a market we'd love to see retail and block 10 will be the epic center of activity there may be some starter retail. again, the market hadn't been to bear it there is the hope but not contemplated in the next few years >> it would be great to see it in the upcoming phases there will be 2 hundred plus units they need to have a sustaining

neighborhood to being, you know, stay there. >> commissioners moving on to item 15 for the next case. at the 2060 fillmore street >> good afternoon the project before you a the conditional formula use and to adjacent two spaces. the subject site is open the ground floor of a 3 story mixed use this on the corner of california and fillmore. it has the access from fillmore street. it was operated an joining

laundry spore. the project proposes to eliminate eliminate the we'll to create one secret space which is below the limit of the zoning district it proposes one entrance and new signage that are comparable. it's an apparel retailer that has 12 operations in the united states and a 4 additional lease spaces in the country. the department finds accident use appropriate and it is a speciality clothing store that is consistent with the planning code description of the zoning district. the department finds the scale to be comparable to the scale. the proposed combined size is

less than the district and consistent with the scale of ago both technologies along the corridor. further it will be taking over another lease and will not will impact the formula retail leases in the area. letters have been sent to the commission directly of support. staff wants to correct page 7 to correct the 11 of 36 appear to be formula retail. and staff has asked to look at the provision requesting supervisors submitting any new formula retail until the staff can create a study supervisor

farrell submitted legislation that number one has a definition to capture locations and two any businesses were 50 percentage or more would automatically be subject to the formula retail use. it will not effect the application before you. even though the two additional international locations are not counted. however, the pend legislation may have pending prelims of formula uses in the area it's not currently an actively legislation so it is not currently before you that concludes my presentation if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them thank you. >> thank you project sponsor.

>> good afternoon, president wu i'm the owner and partner. thank you for hearing our application we respect san francisco and i understand why the rules exist. marcus and i started our company with no formal training we found a factory in kentucky where we went down there and watched

those old ladies suing jeans. it was a really good founding philosophy for our brand we care about the people making our clothes and the majority of our production is done in america we've built our business if nothing we worked out of our homes supported by our wives couldn't get a bank loan but received support from the fashion industry. but the values our core philosophies as a business have been maintained and that is, we really care about the quality of what we do and the integrity of our process we import materials

and i think it's reflected in the quality and the ascetical of our brand we're also known for our family mentality. we have 5 children between my partner and i. we have oldest sons they were born a weekly apart and our business is much less developed it was an amazing experience but we bring it going into our corporate cultural an employee in 2007 is still with us today. we want to look for a store in san francisco particularly on fillmore street. when i 1 saw the street i felt it was a great fit for our

broadened and when i heard that we would you be able to open a store here. the family atmosphere of the street all feel in line for what we are and equally we're a great fit for this neighborhood. my colleague will tube how we're working to make meaning physical contributions to the neighborhood. i want to say there will be opposition talking to here today, i was talking talking to tom reynolds it's not the store that we have an argument with we're not a formula retail this is a business we've built and, you know, we will never be a formula retail type of business.

so it feels like we're being labeled with something we're not judge us on our merits rather than something >> good afternoon. i'm with raisin on bone i'm here to talk about relationships. we wanted to begin working with the neighborhood there's no question on our intent as a result we've built a robust partnership ahead of our store opening. we wanted to share a little bit about those efforts that are designed to be ongoing partnerships. the first one is keith we value the diversity of businesses on fillmore street and recognize retaining that mix is important. we want to leverage some of our

own efforts. we want to keep it for non-formula merchant. we hope this will help with the neighborhood. as david mentioned we're a family first company it's a natural fit with a nonprofit that helps to raise money for schools. we were connected with principal scott optional a few blocks away from our location and one in critical need. in november we made a groont through match. another partnership we've created is with pets un4ri789d we love welcoming dogs into our school we worked to create a

partnership and the bakery the store there agreed to sell us dog biscuits. those new connections to the neighborhoods are important and we've built into our requirement in sight of those partnerships prove or disprove in addition we've engaged in significant outreach to the neighborhood since last september. david met with the operators of the fillmore and the patrick heights locations. we've visited almost every business to make them aware 6 our plans as well. we held a community meeting and having had good feedback. there's one additional partnership there sf main they

have a inspector in san francisco we're working with david peers to develop pictures for our stores. two weeks ago they coming came to learn about our philosophy and that is another feature that will make us perfect in the fillmore community. thanks for your time >> thank you. >> members i'm janet crane i'm an architect. the traditional character of the store will be retained. we've made sure that as many of the existing features will be retained like the window that runs above the awnings. there will be beverages and planter outside the store to

encourage community interaction. we'll have a girl workmanship. a question raised about the size of the space not typical of the neighborhood the sales floor and dressing rooms are about 6 hundred and 60 square feet there is no basement and our store sells men's and women's clothing. it's built into the will hill it's wide and shallow. it's clear this space is within the medium range of businesses on the street. another neighborhood concern the store has a small basing place for bicycle parking. the store has one main deliver

from federal express and we'll ranger for other unloading during non-peak travel >> we have a number of speakers. beverly. paul. jessica. monica. if i've called your name i can approach the podium >> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is beverly and i represent the invent spirit of the fillmore district. having my store for 28 years i've seen many varied changes. it all started in 2008. the fillmore district lost

it'sness so to speak when ralph lauren commented to be involved in our community organization and efforts, promises made and a promises not kept. fillmore now has been inundated with what is called formula stores stores that have more than 10 or 11 of the very same structure. last count i believe we have over 35. those you were crust stores attract a different demographic. those who enjoy being seen as although their shopping in the stores. an impression comes to mind look i didn't lose. and union square is a more appropriate location. our landlord have been sue

adduced by arraignment from los angeles and welcomes the chain stores who are willfully and lined up to achieve that address. even the expression formula changed. we know that life is not a formula especially in retail. there's a vast difference between the personal care and ownership of an individually owned establishment. everyday can bring a nuance we have to think from our gut not waiting for corporate's to tell us how to respond. again showing up as a merchant and taking pride and participating in the fillmore

activity which we have several it shows the care and concern of the individuals that are in the area. those chandz maybe proud of gaining an address on fillmore but it takes soul to shine. we're asking you to look at this and create strong solutions to protect fillmore such an attractive delegates. please honor this independent spiert spirit to survive. thank you >> thank you. >> good afternoon again commissioners. i'm picking up paul. i should note i've spent a fair amount of time traveling and seen airport malls. we don't need an airport mall on fillmore.

had supervisor farrell's proposed legislation been introduced in the past you would see over 58 percent of the clothing retail on fillmore would be formula retail and over 58 percent are formula rail as currently defined are stores that are multiple national with far more than 12 stores. this is a problem. when i moved to the fillmore in 18987 february 19. it was really starting to a couple and the stores were locally owned by must not who had a wonderful mix of

merchandise new you go into the black lease for the high-end and for polio for polio and others but primarily rag bones but the entrepreneurs who made fillmore successful landlords are ray's rents so they can't afford it because the deep 30k9 pocket companies want to raise rent >> the bottom down oxford shirt

is $265. black fleiss flees is not known to be cheap is 1 hundred and the $5. most of the people i know can't afford that affordability. i've been helping older friends make it to the laurent mats it's no longer there. the available laundry mats in the neighborhoods are for smaller ones. so we're talking about a third of a mile walk anytime >> thank you. next speaker. please. >> hi, aim alice.

will near fillmore on jackson street. i'm here procedural as a consumer. i've been here fingerprinting years from hong kong and my love the fillmore and love to shop there people want to know why well, because fillmore has all the varieties the very expensive and the affordable each year special things from different stores ways their privately owned the buyers knew what's in style or the interesting things. so today when you go shopping all over the world you see - we've - you see the practiced i can't see everywhere it's not

fun. i've been taking my niefrts go shopping on fillmore the shopping is no longer as much fun they're not spending the money in the big stores the heavi heavily advertised. i don't think we're going to find unique things in chain stores >> thank you. let me call a few more names. david and others (calling names) >> hi, i'm here to speak in support of rag on bone. while i don't live in
