off a application they'll be able to have support and we'll follow-up with my preference he holders so we tried to increase the lead time to give you 0 people enough time to get into those homes and give the support right away. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> yes and then city. >> maria from the mayor's office of housing of development i'm pleased about the extend time as well one of the things that homeownership sf agencies do including the h f c we're getting down and dirty and working on the issues that are keeping our folks from purchasing and those issues take months and at the first workshop the most recent there were
12:01 pm
several holders that came from the mailings that we did and are working for the opportunity. and then when we get down closer to, you know, right ready to move in they'll have the specification of the unit and be able to see them and get the dream and the bite it's hard to have even though bite without seeing the buildings so it's great that we're doing it in the phases so all the hard work to prepare them it pays off when you get to see the results >> okay. i think the key thing we're trying to achieve a pool of ready certificate preference holders to 60 to one hundred and
12:02 pm
80 days folks have been through the classes that they're interested some folks are not but they have the barriers we get a pool of ready certificate holders that can choose and get them into a lottery so that's the point to create that right pool of folks that are ready >> i'm sorry we're also seeing an increase or may not be an increase but a sustained new amount of certificate requests we think this is part of the excitement of the opportunities opening up so by word of mouth, you know, you really should go and apply for your certificate you should get the opportunities this is an exciting time. >> thank you commissioner rosales did you have -
12:03 pm
>> yes. i was going to ask the question you asked chairperson johnson i speak frankly you've golden got it we've been saying this on the market if there's barriers on marketing how do you tangible it. >> a related question if the d b and i apologize if it's in there but what are the criteria for rental units converting to owner like for sale units there's a form a document for residents to be able to purchase their units how does it work. >> so i'm sorry. could you
12:04 pm
restate. >> i i guess what's the how do the unit convert from rental to for sale. >> thank you, madam chair. this is a for sale development and the developer has the right and i can't recall the exact agreeing integral but the d b.a. must happen within 12 months but it will expire prior to the execution the developer has to decide the unit are for sale or rental and it will be locked in or we'll have to amend the d b.a. >> i apologize maybe i misread that but if it was going to be rental there would be an option to buy. >> right if they convert after the hearing we can have a discussion that will be more appropriate for the market if
12:05 pm
everything is for sale for example, we'll invite the commission and they'll market them as rental unit and not for sale at this point bus it is a rental project it will be an amendment to the d b.a. if they want to sell certain units. >> got it. and then good job on the s b e i think we would clap but i don't think we do that at commission meetings. and then is latins last thing one of the conditions as approval i didn't see any doors i thought people would have to tell port themselves into the building but i look at that how was the egress option for people i know that is something we'll
12:06 pm
read later >> yeah. >> certainly egress and ingress it wasn't highlighted has much because this the the egress and ingress might change i've seen it i've been into inside the virtual road. >> thank you. great projects. commissioner singh >> for the architect. yeah. >> i heard that. >> have you moved open any other job for the city and i side octavia court with the hud section 811 prong that was on one of the parcels and mission block 2 and 5 i was the

architect. >> you said it has a view front podium. >> oh, yeah, we opened it up and aligned that with a park i can see from the town homes into the podium. >> you don't love it. >> i love the whole thing. >> my certain is about the parking it's not enough. >> it's not enough. >> i don't think anybody is without a car in the city. >> commissioner singh i think some developers want to do lots of parking because you can charge for it but phase one limits it 2 to 20th century 4 we've achieved the most we could. >> how can we increase more parking is it possible.
12:08 pm
>> certainly where the city is going they're looking at reducing parking there are more people who want more and others who want less so public transportation is relied upon. >> in this city almost everybody has more than one car. >> if you get the purple unit in block 52. >> if someone else didn't have a spot you can take their spot. >> if you don't have a car there will be excess parking spots. >> is there street side opportunity. >> there's off-street parking and as part of the conditions of
12:09 pm
approval we'll do a study so we'll, looking at as well but only the exception of the driveways otherwise there's parking everything else. >> just a quick question on the parking then i said something that was wrong in a lot of the buildings i've seen whatever the ratio is to parks spots to units there's some plays in the garages for visitor parking is that not happening here? so excuse me. i can't recall where visitor parking as general used for any visitor was sort of shown -
12:10 pm
>> not general use but visitors for people who live in the building. >> if you have two parking spots you can let the visitor use it but the on street parking is ample so parking inside but using one the homeowners parking spaces over and over outside the building but no not a visitor designated you have two parking spaces. >> all right. great decision and project thank you unless there's a question i'd like to approve if this application. >> i move. >> second. >> second and madam secretary please call the roll. >> commissioner ellington. commissioner mondejar. commissioner singh.
