2011, we updated our zoning to allow the sale of produce by our san francisco residents a year later the urban architectural committee came to our office and we passed the legislation that established a competitive urban strategy and budgeting streaming and thank to the rec and park department this is to address something we've heard from residents and urban farmers around san francisco there's not enough space to farm in our city i consulting that is a long existing gardens have been lost to other uses because land is expensive the use is landowners are developing their property in

other ways we have an act that is important this proposal encourages some property owners allows them to pay lower tax for 5 years for agriculture use i want to thank our thufkz who have worked tireless to expand urban farms in the city i want to thank our agricultural commission and carmen chu and out of the rec and park department we have our corridor (calling names) and other at spur and i want to thank assembly member phil tilly

chang who's field representative is here or might be here soon. to specifically this allows san francisco to enter into a contract with property owners who's properties are inattentive and provided them a tax reduction they have to keep the land in agricultural use and keep it in agricultural use and open to the members of the public as educational or outreach space as a community garden or food distribution that will be only as a permit use or approval for the conditional use permit and finally the agricultural commissioner can approve this contract if it didn't have a tack loss of $25,000 or one hundred and 25 over the 5 year contract or

combined tax use of more than $250,000 per year we have to have adequate oversight while the city may los lose a minor amount of tax revenues revenues the balance is much greater the positives of urban farming helps to improve our environment and teaches important values like st. patrick and provides greater arithmetic's health for the residents. i want to mention supervisor cohen's district there are a you, you accompany on 19 and (reading.) as well as the bee garden on the visitacion valley run by sf b cause. and we know there are many folks in the southeast neighborhoods interested in this i want to

mention we've heard from sacramento, berkley oakland and los angeles and santa cruz that are following the ashen incentive zones i'm proud that san francisco was the big place of abdom of abdom of abdomen - ab 551 before we move forward i want to mention i have two technical amendments i'd like to adapt after public comment and specifically it will be to define the lgbt property rather than defining them as privately owned property on page 4 and page 8 add the department of public health for the potential examinations of

property first talk to all the members of the public and if the departments have initial comments or go to. >> we're not ready for public comment i want to ask the rec and park department or assembly member phillips office that is represented do you have any thing to add. >> great we have two public comment cards (calling names). >> afternoon supervisors i'm eli i'm the foods system and project manager at spur spur was supportive of the ab 551 and

give you a history behind the ma copy i think hub i introduced the first series to kickoff the creation of the small business comments that the city mad as part of the market street plan to the ma copy i think neighborhood we've opened the dog and skate park under the freeway and now finally moving forward with the public improvement in the package making the sellingy project the creation of a plaza known as at ma copy even hub as the city staff says it's been a long process starting with the tireless advocate when the freeway was torn down and rebuilt to dip into the octavia boulevard i want to acknowledge

john updyke the city attorney's office and he department of public works and also the mayor's office of economic development former and current kelly and former ken rich and robert who lives in the strict as a community leader who's lolgd long hours working on those projects. the ma copy even hub is a prime example of an small business being preprogrammed although as envisioned as a community garden with a food pilot and most recently to push the design that has to the cross section of vendor and community members through a series of community meetings the mayor's office of economic development and public works kept the points out in the

aesthetics designs and dph has worked hard to incur it's to meet all the state and federal regulations and the street vacation before us will help us to convert it from a street to the plazas it is under construction and the neighborhood is looking forward to have them come back to the space it's an amazing community event on saturdays. so i first wanted to bring up robin from the office of economic workforce development to present on items 3 through 5.

>> good afternoon, supervisors robin with the office of economic workforce development i do have a brief presentation i'm keep it short most of which the supervisors has covered the ma copy even produces are a of a planning process in 2004 in the junior 2000 the city entered into an agreement the state vetted all the property to the city. in exchange for this land the funding of the octavia boulevard a was funded as well as the ancillary projects to mitigate the neighborhoods touched down on octavia.

to orient you to the area the market street runs across the left hand of the map and ma copy even is on the top left this is prioritized as a market street and octavia plan. to define the ax cellar project the transportation authority began a process through the central advisory committee in 2004 at the end of the process they recommended the implementation of the project you see the construction project is the selma west project is wrapping up. oewd and dph kuk9d 9 meetings to find the ma copy even space in the for the ma copy even hub

those tdrs interests will be under the plaza program that became effective last week. the city meditates have to 8 months to finish the project is identify ma copy even but the construction will be implemented this july we ask you move forward with the street process and propose to the board of supervisors to add ma copy even for a longer standard in the meantime, oewd has awarded a small short term activation grant for the space this summer this allows the plazas to take advantage of the good weather in the board approves this zoning

change and the board of supervisors approves the vacation it will be ready for an inclusion in the new plaza program please note we anticipate this process with the proceedings program is a circumstance we anticipate will be unique for the ma copy even plaza in the future we ask the plaza program will come to you in one package the longer than anticipated construction of the street completion leads us to a need to manage the spaces in the interim this will fascinate the management. for our reference several references i think you've seen several of them under the process vacation in the ma copy even will support the planning

by machoism the lingering street status for the regulations more in line with the city's small businesses removing one layer of requirements. here is a protective process i'll walk you through if you're committee sets a date today 55 to vacate the clerk has suggested september 2nd and the committee asked the rezoning for the street vacation on this day the full board could consider both of those items in the fall if the board approves those in the fall then the street vacation will be effective in early october it will be effective than that allows the real estate to have the plazas for the work to include the sf

plaza in the program a long term request for the proposed and adoption in spring 2015. that concludes my presentation. . thank you. i want to recognize we have other staff from dph as well as dejog santa's on the restoration process >> thank you supervisor kim. >> i was going to ask mr. sanchez to come up. >> good afternoon mr. sanchez i'll keep my comments brief for the proposed ordinance that changes the zoning for the
