3:17 am
of grit british kingdom. we seek to promote and develop candlestick park for the future. it's still home to the oldest football association. the san francisco football league. many people also aren't aware that our parks capacity is shrinking and not growing for the current usage of facilities that we have within the city of san francisco. because of this, we seek a positive resolution for the redevelopment of the candlestick point hunters shipyard where we can seek new active development of the parks that are proposed to be put at the candlestick park area. with it we also seek to

3:19 am
you on department matters, item one, review events at the staff commission reports and announcements. >> planning commission is currently on break, so i don't have a report from recent hearings, but i did want to bring to your attention a memo prepared by tom desanto and martini in your correspondence folder at your chair. at your previous hearing you asked for clarification on the approved budget for the next two fiscal 2 fiscal years. i'm sorry i wasn't able to get this to you in advance. if you have any questions, i'm happy to entertain those questions at a future hearing. if you e-mail me, i'm happy to follow up with you. in summary i wanted to bring a couple things to your attention. on page 3 under new position, you will see item no. 1 that is related to reducing the backlog.
3:20 am
we were granted one additional preservation position that would be a quadrant base preservation planner. the preservation planner that you had requested to work on landmark designations did not make it out of the mayor's office. so it did not end up in the budget. but they did grant us a position to deal with the backlog of permit ceqa related review and other preservation entitlement but at a quadrant level. on page four, beginning at the bottom of page four you will see the beginning of the year work program summary item no. 2 reflects that one additional staff member for quadrant base work and the summary on page 5 will give you a little bit more information about any additional items that were included on the
3:21 am
budget that were granted. two things in particular that i think are important is one is we were granted the $100,000 to begin the citywide is survey scoping and planning process. so that's good news. and will be coming back to you hopefully before the end of the year with some more concrete details on our plan of attack for tackling the citywide is survey. as part of that we were also granted additional money related to a cog grant. we have a cog grant for this year for about $25,000 and also have a krog grant for next year for about $40,000. this grant money is used to prepare a neighborhood commercial district historic context statement and is survey of neighborhood commercial
3:22 am
buildings. in particular mixed use corner buildings. the reason we picked this prototype is these are the buildings that are in that first tier of the size retro if it program. we are like ly to see a large volume of permits to upgrade these buildings in the near future and we wanted to make sure we have historic preservation in the future so when we are reviewing we don't delay those projects unnecessarily. with this funding we are able to expand this is survey and keep that is survey moving rather than waiting for the next fiscal year grant to come in. as part of the $100,000 citywide is survey, we are also under sway for this commercial is survey. we'll keep you updated on this is survey which we hope to bring to you for the upcoming adoption in
3:23 am
the upcoming year. there is one error in the narrative that i wanted to point out to you in the last paragraph on page 5, in the middle of the paragraph there is a sentence referencing the preserve america grant. if you recall that grant expired a couple years ago. this is meant to refer to the cog grant that i just explained to you. so that krog grant will be available. so if you have any questions, or you would like to discuss this further at a future hearing, i would be happy to do that. i wanted to make sure you had this information at this hearing. that concludes my comments unless you have any questions. thank you. >> thank you, commissioners any questions for staff on this? >> seeing none, mr. frye, i do have questions but with

3:26 am
