never informed me i get a letter a formed letter this is way out thank you. >> hi good afternoon, commissioners sorry i'm morris the project sponsor just to reiterate we've been in connect with the owner of this year i know with there's some disconnect between the owner and tenants and if those guys they can deal with the plan our height is matching with the brick building we're not faking anything regarding what the marshal elementary school we met with the school principle and one of development they were

unaware of the extensive meditations we took 3 hundred work loads of contaminated soil we won't have a lot of traffic and deliver it will be from van ness and 16th street i'm hoping you guys will push for the two weeks we've already given the july 10th extension. we feel we've been more than cooperative and hoping for the first week in september please. thank you. >> good afternoon. my name is is rick i'm a tenant in also speaking on behalf of the light temple association the red stone building is adjacent to this

project. the red stone temple association is the tenants group within the building about 35 tenants more or less a hundred people represented we've long opposed this project and i'm speaking and the labor temple association is strongly in favor of a minimum one month continuance so the actual marshal parents can participate and be involved in the process of this. this project. i know the project has been going on for a longer there's been a hiatus of two or three years all of a sudden there's this huge placard on the fence around it. being a tenant in the building adjacent i've received no information of the all of a sudden public meetings on

valencia gardens this is the school is a mere half block away and will have a great effect on the traffic around the school primarily true most of the because it's a one way most of the traffic will go on - and try to keep our comments to the continuance >> allow the marge parents to have more say it will definitely effect the playgrounds and school. thank you >> thank you. >> thank you shawn the project sponsor arrest i'm here to report we will respectfully support either continuance, however, i urge you to pick the soonest the sooner of the two. but only if their long and

cumbersome process the coming off the earn neighborhood rezoning one can almost add the two layers of notification we've been talking about sites like this there's been a lot of talk about the eastern neighborhoods and this project and at some point the process is the process i will remind you 24 has been continued ones i learned the supervisor requested a second continuance. i know this morning and after discussing the matter and going back and forth and hearing the years and the time it took for this to go through the process after hearing and realizing there is already been been one 5 week extension we came to a compromise i realize there's not a hearing in two weeks but if all possible make it; four, the

next available hearing we want to do more outreach and meat with others folks there maybe some things that note need to be addressed bus it's been pa long, long process thank you very much >> is there any additional public comment okay seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner antonini >> yeah. i understand maybe i can ask the gentleman a question i understand the process has been going on for 4 years; is that correct. >> correct it's the very first preapplication meeting and going from 0 my notes commissioner antonini over and over again, the community said this built sooner rather than later you've seen 50 letters of the endorsement.

>> there's been an outreach to the administration at the elementary school as was presented but i guess there's not been conversations with the members of the pta as yet is that the case. >> that's true we met with the facilities director mr. golden san francisco unified school district and showed him the shadow study demonstrates it as well we showed him the traffic study it doesn't go through the common path of travel and spoke to the 3 had had loads of contamination and that was part of the remediation. >> thank you. i appreciate the

contact but my question is do you think you'll be able to contact the pta we have three weeks until our next hearing we have a hiatus of 2 weeks. >> it's we contacted the principle and asked by the supervisors to contact peter's his first day back on august 1st had a lengthy conversation he realizes there's an economic change going on in and around the area he's been there for seven years and also realize that the pta has gotten involved with mr. blue and others on the 16 mragdz that abuts the project and - >> thank you. well, not contacted anyone from the pta this has come up >> as part of the continuance you be on the names of whoever

you can who are mechanics of the pta and try to reach them as early as possible and ask for their comments because i'm going to continue to the earlier day. thank you phil a that's fine. a couple of points on this for a reason i'm going to ask this to continue this to the sooner date it's been 4 years in the process i was part of the neighborhood meeting that included a lot of the neighbors cloig people that are here today. i thought it was very well done but it's a project pits compiled with the neighborhoods as the one we approved and there's been a lot of outreach already but to the point of the pta specifically i'm going to move

to continue to the fourth unless there's a reason interests not been adequate contact made we can month move it forward. so anxious i find hard to believe that any member of the elementary school child would have a vacant lot then have a beautiful new building with tax dollars to the city having raised children and grandchildren i'd be surprised in the members of the school families again want it there i'm going to move to continue this to the fourth of september >> commissioner moore. >> i'd like to ask mr. lessor a practical question at what time will the school be back in

session it will shed reality. >> next monday. >> thank you very much, sir. >> which day and mr. lining. >> the public is indicating that monday the is 18 will be the day that the parent and children are back at the school does the commission building that is an sufficient amount of time and sport commissioner antonini's motion? commissioners there's a motion and second to continue this matter until september 4th. monoon that motion >> commissioner antonini. commissioner johnson. commissioner moore. commissioner sugaya. commissioner fong. commissioner president wu. so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 6 to
