i'm brian i'm co-author of a paper that was submitted to commissioner president lazarus. we did not obtain to another at&t s m f installation in the neighborhood open the location. i live there i have an s m f right in front of my house. there would be another s m f right on the side of my house we did a box walk. we identified an alternative site. we just building that dpw shown good faith in the process by denying the installation site at the 100 thorton street and at&t

cooperated worked with us until the time they filed for a appeal. we're not official parties to the suit we're tax paying citizens that are continual being negatively effected. we respectfully ask you deny at&t appeal number 14 dash 0 dash 2 >> thank you is there any public comment. >> thank you, ma'am chair and i live on thorton avenue which is the first house next to the proposed s m f facility at one

hundred thorton. i believe that this particular appeal would have been grouped with another group had it not been with a conflict of interest we subscribe to all the other argument in supporting the dpw denial of this appeal. at&t has skuds have said they wouldn't like to have been here we ask why. at&t would appear to have changed course in a split second and decided they do not want to pressure the agreement we all came to this was documented 0

that they apply for an alternative will site i see that at&t did apply for an alternative site and possibly requested dpw to not go ahead with that site if that's the situation their tarnish transmittal decided to arbitrate the agreement where they arbitrarily decided to apply for an excavation and we've got to explanation their b.a.'s their arguments on a false illegal presumption because most of them are rebuttal and in our letter

which was referred we take issue with each and every argument they make in their brief but you have this letter as part of our package. i think in short that the hearing officer had every right to make the recommendations that she did which was to deny the original permit but to suggest that at&t go ahead and apply for a second permit and it reiterate they did that for lucy street we don't know why i request the board challenge at&t to give everybody who was effected hundred and hundreds of us why they've broken >> thank you, sir i heard it slightly different from the

department i heard they didn't finish the other application not that they didn't continue thank you i'm sorry what. >> i didn't hear the department say they discontinued the application for the lucy street site. >> i don't know because the entire process of applying for the lucy application we've heard for the first time. >> i'd like speak with mr. quan after this. >> next speaker >> good evening commissioner president lazarus and boards of commissioners, i appreciate the

opportunity to speak and thank you for your patience i'm one of the 3 authorize of the statements submitted to you on april 10th on the appeal i'm a citizen that submitted a protest an april 2012 i'm someone that went on a box walk and attended the december 18, 2013, dpw hearing. as the previous speakers in the parishioners have been explained we believe what's going on and we've studied and read the relevant briefs and documents. we're not observing to at&t appeal on emotional grounds you have the 27 page belief but i want to say that number one at&t

has a goal to install one in our neighborhood i quote we're committed to addressing the concerns the community and would like to work with you to find a suitable place for the cabinet we're saying the public has respond and it's been overwhelming for everybody the dpw outlines the process we the residents who represent the public right away are effected by the public utilities came in theory can accept at&t's objective and willing to work in a cooperate active fashion at&t didn't follow the rules and i

heard the claim there was an application for the lucy street in october of 2013 according to mr. quan, however, when i coordinated with the staff prior to the presentation on the 18 i heard there was not an application so there's miscommunication with regards to the appeal at hand i believe that the dpws action and the denial itself or the staltd disapproval the site is right and dpw acted correctly i ask the board to uphold that decision for if this board will let at&t to follow the correct s

m f order >> next speaker >> good evening, everybody i'm curious stone the executive director of san francisco beautiful i want to thank the president and staff and public for their times and thank you for your efforts to protect the cities right to dedicate time place and manner of those facilities. san francisco beautiful is interested in protecting san francisco spaces and we sued san francisco and at&t seeking environmental review opposing the category california exception for this reason in specific you'll all seen hundreds of protests and doris of appeals.

we look forward to hearing the result of the state court on the decision of for our appeal but we look forward to working with at&t and the department of public works and the board of supervisors to find a solution to make that process workable. and to hopefully, we'll have the opportunity to address the questions you've heard from the neighbors why can't they go underground why aren't there more on public property. we hopefully, will get this information but we looked to work with you and thank you for your time and protection and your hard work to protect our public space up

>> mr. johnson rebuttal. >> i'm trying to be very brief the one thing i apologize for having to turn my back to you while i speak into this microphone i want to explain something. the purchase of at&t filing this appeal was not to install an s m f cabinet we went into the field and agreed with the local residents the better recognition is on lucy street we think it is still on 1800 lucy street i think it's unfortunate that the department has wasted everybody's time and make everybody go through the process when with what the hearing officer could have done a held

the >> did you file another permit. >> we did it was simply a mistake. >> if you had left ♪ take it would be been there >> if the hearing officer had the authority to hold the hearing open in a location where the public agreed what is a proper location even though as an advocate i feel bad there's been miscommunication for the people that waited here all night it wasn't our intention to violate our commitment with the neighbors this is just an example of what's gone wrong with the process thank you very much. >> thank you as well i

appreciate it. >> mr. quan. >> i think you're done aren't you. >> i'm pretty sure done as i stated an application was applied for only waiting for the process and at&t would have gotten their preapproval and got this installed and that's my expectation. >> you said they're standing on principle the way it should have happened to open the process. >> commissioner, i can't speak to that. >> okay commissioners the matter is submitted. >> i'll move to deny the appeals based on the fact they were properly denied based on

the code. >> with that motion by the vice president. commissioner fung. commissioner hwang is absent. commissioner president lazarus and the commissioner honda is reused and there's no further business. before the board this evening we are ring that someone special.

projects that are flag analysis and on 1 and mission street and finally, i visited the dr requester for the dr that's filed against one one one ashbury on our calendar for consideration in the near future. the other item i want to ask about making comments. i realize we have a ballot issue but motive question is not about a position on the ballot 80 but to inform the public on the existing height limits on the waterfront it's property that are inland most are port

properties but if we can have an forgive presentation it would be something that the general public would find informative about the height limits where they came from >> commissioner borden. >> the speaking of the water front i know the warriors brought a site have they filed a petition. >> i was going to address that. >> perfect. >> commissioner moore. >> i see a lot of construction activity in on residential neighborhoods that's a positive sign sometimes, i only one should as to whether 0 those varies activities have filed for the proper permitting i question that because the developers and bbldz in the city that are doing

the residential remodeling they have their permits somewhere on the construction site maybe not knowing how it worked but that's not happening it's hard to trace. has that a permit or not. going to the website is one way but i don't police activities i'd like to have a discussion with dbi to put flags on things to ask questions, etc. i'm observing in my own vicinity something that requires a variance despite the nature of the project on the other hand, since i don't see the permits posted on the building i assume the construction activities that are going on in the building have not vetted properly so i'm

trying to make sense of this for the commission to schedule a joint meeting with dbi and talk about this. among other things which we might have in common. >> okay. thank you. >> my apologizes through the chair if he could go back to the items for continuance if item 3 b the variance also proposed for september 20th. >> as acting zoning administrator i'll continue that. >> commissions that places you under directors announcements. >> good afternoon, commissions are couple of announcements i want to introduce you to mr. kelly he who's the new director

of the planning and he's been here 2 1/2 weeks he is coming from portland where he had his own firm and in berkley for nine hundred among other things he spent time with the rec and park i've known gil and we're frankly glad to have him as part of our team. >> thank you welcome. >> welcome. >> welcome. welcome >> with respect to of the warriors proposal the announcement was a maid in week the warriors are in the process of purposing the sales force property in mission bay to build the arena and the proposal will be to build the arena approximately 15 thousand seat

arena and the exact amount is as you recall a sales force had about $2 million square feet i'm not sure how much the warriors will propose it's for the scoping for the plan. therefore the entitlement process is similar to mission bay there will be likely a chance change to the ocii. and under our arrangement that started about a year ago the planning department is actually doing the environmental reviews for the redevelopment agency. we're working to scope that out right now and as well as we're working with them under contract also on the design needs for the

ocii so the vice president will be at the table. the commissions role will not be the normal entitlement paroling role because that's in the mission bay plan but the office allocation you'll see that in the redevelopment areas and we'll be happy to bring the project to you on, on informational basis as the work precedes. no former application filed yet but they haven't even scoped with the full range of the project at this point so when it becomes better defined i'm happy to work with the president and figure out when to come to talk about the scope of the project. you may recall the sales force had about 14 acres and it's smaller part of the 14 acres

were under an agreement with ucsf so this doesn't include the entire 14 acres but runs to the terrace boulevard so it includes the biggest single piece of the site. with respect to commissioner antonini s comment on the waterfront we're happy to share the information which that includes the waterfront portion which is controlled and not controlled on the water in front that announcement will be coming in the next few weeks >> commissioner moore. >> i know it's not scheduled as a discussion item but i want to ask some of the urban ideas relative to the sales force

headquarter will resolve many of the big connections we're looking for i hope that sensitivity which you all brought to the discussion can be transferred and adapted to how we look at this large building. >> i appreciate this comment we're looking forward to working on that site as a way to make it pedestrian friendly. >> thank you commissioner antonini. >> seems like on the mission bay projects in the past commission they've approved the design as a matter of the hearing i'm not sure f this is true of the warrior project. >> the way it works you approve i don't understand the history of the site but only on office monetary because of the prop m allocation. the department will be at the table and we'll come her to at
