you're talking about. >> i would -- to counter what commissioner pearlman said, i'd say we start regulating or we don't do any of it, but once it's written in a code i think it's unfair for us to -- somebody who goes through all the steps, the code says if it's a landmark you can have these uses and they go through all these steps and then turn around well, we don't think your building counts, then we should have explicitly excluded it. otherwise it's very confusing. i think it's very unfair to owners to /sutd suddenly go through these steps and find because there's a desire to keep the showplace intact that we would turn their building down. that's my comment. >> thank you. commissioner johnck. i appreciate the discussion on the issues here, but i do believe it meets the

requirements for landmark status in a very big way and i support the staff recommendation to designate the landmark and i will make two amendments to advise me on where to make these amendments, but i'd like to like numeral six to delete the word appears and put the word meets. >> motion? >> seconded. >> thank you. >> commissioners on that motion to adopt recommendation of approval as amended to remove in item six, appears to, and change the word meet to meets. and adding publicly accessible

interpretive display to the project. >> just to clarify to make sure the recommendation is clear for the board of supervisors, i would recommend that the commission -- recommend the ordinance be amended to require a publicly accessible display as part of the landmark designation, that way the city attorney can put that language directly into the ordinance to enforce it. >> fine, agreed. >> is that acceptable to seconder? >> yes. >> on that motion, commissioner johnck. >> yes. >> jones. >> yes. >> matsuda >> yes. >> pearlman. >> yes. >> wolfram. >> yes. >> hasz. >> yes. >> that motion passes unanimously six to zero. there are no other items on your agenda. >> thank you. we will adjourn this meeting

>> good afternoon, everybody i'm loped brodie i'm the supervisor for 5th district i'm excited because i believe this is the model for how affordable housing should be done in san francisco when we build housing to other locations to develop all below rate i want to thank

by thanking the developer brian and those hopes are going to be absolutely amazing. i'm here to express my commitment to make sure that san francisco is doing everything this can to continue our work on affordable housing. we talk about when we do that wrong well, this is the case we doing to right and pushing more affordable housing in so far. without further ado, i'd like to bring up mayor ed lee any public comment? mayor ed lee has not only been an advocate for affordable housing but one the first mayors to take on the housing issues so i'm proud of the work not only with public hours but affordable housing thank you all for coming and without further ado, mr.

mayor come on up and tell us about this project (clapping.) spreading thank you very much for that introduction. by the way, i want to let me u know supervisor breed and i you're going to see us together from affordable housing to public housing she's worked hard and i want to thanks her. if we are going to build thirty thousand units of indoors the next 6 years i'm going to need friends like supervisor breed. we're going aggressive because people want to live in our wonderful city a lot of people 79 to stay in our city and we can only accommodate that if we are almost military eric about

building and pitting together how does. i'm going looking forward to seeing those homes but i want to restate a commitment one it's evolved in conversations with supervisor breed and other supervisors our advocates in the city we've got to be graph about building protecting and middle-class housing so when we stated thirty thousand unit that sounds like a lot but it that r will reflect the highest number of housing we've built in the history of the city. we're willing to do that because that's what is the needed so it's a mixture of not only building housing but rehabilitating housing that's

decaying in front of us so the fund the public-private investments that we create something like the story about this site the incentives we'll have for the public-private industry we're building as well as is public monies the supervisors will decade to this effort will you'll conclude in the next 6 years thirty thousand units of housing. we can't get this done simply by dlaifrg this cause we have to make it happen therefore in the last december i called for all agencies to work with me to make sure they are processes were the welcoming result it concluded in a series of meeting that are lead by mravp and building inspection and including our fire department our housing units all the different agencies

and including the offices of sgblt & anothers it's not easy even if i head up this bureaucracy ask any ceo of any great place and you're asking me to do it here i've got to get in done internally i know it rings true inform supervisor breed. get on the same map and same promising program and same pass so planning and dbi i want to recognize angus for being the person in charge he is making sure that bill strong is working with us we take advantage of this goal and let's reorganize the tools within our sfog to work n in the same fashion.

i have a responded positively by immediately suggesting short-range and admitted and long-range to do. today i've rewarded them by adapting they're short range recommendations i'll highlight one. is to say anything in the pipeline that has any affordable housing attached to it gets attention immediately. it's hard to do without the leadership the city agencies coming do i dough but we're phone number for two reasons one to reflect the implementation of the policy we are going to throw mr. brown and dbi and a public works we are going to lift those are projects up and give them

priority attention and the second reason is to suggest that the developers of those projects should hear about immediately. because what it does is have a very dedicated reinclusion monk the developer community in the city. that if you have ava's part of our development you're going to get go attention. it used to be kinally if you had money you'd get attention but if you have housing particle affordable housing you're going to get the same kind of attention. so it's to reversible within the developer community and this is important incentive advised them

to put housing on the sites or in the private investment to is your developments will get high priorities in the city. another highlighted part is to have concurrent reviews so our staffs start juggling things i'm not looking yours because you're not in the cue in the right order those housing projects get immediate review. that's important that's how important this development is. i will suggest as part of this is that when we said thirty thousand units that's always rehabilitating unit we don't want to lose 10 thousand unit so we're pay attention to the current housing stock that's why

mrs. wolf i've had the good fortune to work with she and others have pushed forward another policy reflective in those instructions that development and developers who want to bring forward units that might not have been legal in the past will get priority treatment and as we look at each development we at one point make sure that the developers are not decreasing the number of units in the development process so to give a good you holistic look at all developments to make sure we prevent the housing stock and allow the developers to legal lists and a make more legal those units that might have been in the studios and not permit developers to suggest oh, because i have tenants in unit

that might not have been legal we can get rid of them we're saying the oppose to preserve the housing stock we're not going to getting let you decrease the housing stock in the city. those are some of the major highlights i'm embarrassing and all the head agencies from dbi to disability to the rent board to the fire department to all agencies even the board of appeals they're here we're working together to get this done and the right way. i wanted to bring to your attention and by the way, it's raining so 13450i8 it's a great day i'm smiling when it rains and it's the year of the horse and we've got housing and i know

i'm going to meet a tenant some place who's family is here in the city and works in the nonprofits and who has a member of the family that's part of the artist it iic community this is san francisco's families we want to help stay here and grow here they've got a small child and will be one of the first ones to move in i love hand to hand out keys this is what supervisor breed and i love to do for people who want to stay here and grow their families and be here open market street that. brian you've done a wonderful job this is a site you've controlled. if you saw what was happening at the site being an old restaurants and being unutilized

having families who are here to pay below market rent half one bedroom and 20/20 bedroom we've wified up for everybody i'm simon smiling we need more acquisition states i sites i know that our staff is talking about every site we can get control of get developers to help us build for nooshl affordable units 23 below market units on this site in the heart of market street. not a domino of city funds. which went into this it's all privately paid for as part of

the housing going that brian can tell you about he was building market rate condominiums not part of castro but are happy to do it this can be the example of the kind of example and relationships we want to for this with our development community yes, in the future we'll have more of those how to work with developers like brian who wants to do more in our city this is heartfelt for 23 families but it will be a symbol we need 23 more projects immediately. i'm happy to be here and to thank our different divisions and departments working with us and brian has a attempting team and to suggest that he and other

developers come in and i've got thirty thousand units to build in the next 6 years and we're excited to do that. maybe we can take a few questions on this >> almost thirty thousand units how realistic is that and how (inaudible) prioritizing how quick can you bring those in. >> we know things and britain will tell you their history of working with the city and a planning department what moves things and not bureaucracies didn't move things. and 1rir789 review processes

could be toilgd up. our agencies working together could do con current reviews building won't look at this until planning department don't and fire the last everyone can work concurrently to accelerate all those projects why do you handicap offices that cause one and a half years of review as opposed to 6 months of review. thoses are things that are practical the community is going to praise us and our bureaucracies didn't respond very well until he felt the need to put this on the fast accelerated agenda. yes, sir. it's grave but we've got to do it for the people who are waiting to 0 move into those places their atkins at the door

can we shorn e shorten that line by neurology our efficiencies. i think we can do that. this year open market street alone 5 thousand 5 hundred units 6 housing will be opened up for homeownerships. with that backdrop we can do it with many more projects we need to see hunters point sledder we can do this we're all on the same package and if not supervisor breed is going to make sure shows got a large voice. other questions? >> are you going to adhere new staff to make sure that the

projects are going to go faster? >> you know i think we were rode particularly for planning they were rode with additional staff because the whole market the development was increasing in the city so i don't know if there's necessarily increased staff just for the housing i think it's efficiencies because they have budget instructions that don't allow them to increase their budget so it's all about efficiencies it's not about asking for more staff but what processes that are barriers to efficiencies. they've gotten more staff i think they're telling me see other people told me they weren't the problem and we got people together and they were

looking at each other as the problem so the response we have today and the ideas is not about the additional funding. by the way, the developer community has told me they're willing to pay if they get efficiencies out of this time is money for them and we're saying housing and time is money and therefore if there is a suggestion that we can accelerate with more staff i've got at that developer community that i've suggested that they would pay for. but this is not rnlthd in the recommendations we have today so all the idea we're getting by accelerating and concurrent things it's strictly bureaucracy

>> (inaudible). >> well, certainly for housing developments this includes public housing yes. we've had to think through and plan for the financing of what we call the public housing portfolio and olsen can give you american people update because we've got incomes from hud that allows us to put money in areas and a good chunk of that has going towards repairing elevators and other things that effect people with sgablts and seniors. >> happy new year of the horses we are going to go up here and thank
