facility there's a lot of promise out there it's exciting that the community came together so we have a motion on the floor we'll take that without objection. >> mr. clerk anything else before us. >> mr. speaker, i want to clarify. >> oh, one second we had a recommendation one vote to accept the budget analyst recommendation go and to recommend that as amended and yes. i clarify that motion. >> that completes today's agenda. >> thank you mr. clerk we're

>> a lot a ton with the community and we say to ourselves, there is this one and this one. we all compartmentalize them, we have our own agenda. our agenda is to create great work. if you are interested in that, you are part of our community. >> hello and welcome to brava theater. >> we are trying to figure out a way to make a space where theater and presentation of live work is something that you think of the same way that you think of going to the movies. of course, it has been complex in terms of economics, as it is for everyone now. artistically, we have done over

35 projects in four seasons, from producing dance, theater, presenting music, having a full- scale education program, and having more than 50,000 visitors in the building almost every year. a lot of our emerging artists to generate their first projects here, which is great. then we continue to try to support figuring out where those works can go. we have been blessed to have that work produced in new york, going on to the edinburgh festival, the warsaw theater festival. to me, those are great things when you can watch artists who think there is nowhere else that might be interested in you being a woman of color and telling your story and then getting excited about it. that is our biggest accomplishment. having artists have become better artists. what is. sheri coming back to brava, here

you have this establish, amazing writer who has won a clue -- slew of awards. now she gets to director and work. even though she is this amazing, established writer, the truth is, she is being nurtured as a director and is being given some space to direct. >> the play is described as ceremony and -- where ceremony and theater me. in the indigenous tradition, when you turn 52, it is like the completion of an important era. the importance of the ceremony is to say, you are 52. whenever you have been caring for the first 52 years, it is time to let it go. really, here, they have given me carte blanche to do this. i think it is nice for me, in the sense of coming back 25

years later and seeing personally my own evolution as an artist and thinker. the whole effort to put the chicano or indigenous woman's experience on center stage is, in itself, for euro-american theaters, a radical position. because of the state of theater, it is a hard roll to hold up in institution. it is a hard road. i am looking at where we are 25 years later in the bay area, looking at how hard it is for us to strive to keep our theater is going, etc. i like to think that i'm not struggling quite as hard, personally, but what i mean by that, the intention, the commitment. particularly, to produce works that would not be produced in other places, and also to really

nurture women of color artists. i think that is something that has not shifted for me in those 25 years, and it is good to see that brava remains committed to that kind of work. ♪ >> when people talk about the reflection of the community, we can only go from what we have on our staff. we have a south asian managing director, south african artistic director, latino community out rich person. aside from the staff, the other people, artists that we work with being a reflection of us, yes, the community is changing, but brava has always tried to be ahead of that trend. when i came in, i tried to make it about the work that shows the eclectic mission district,

as well as serving the mission. those are the types of things that i feel build one brava is >> good afternoon, we'll call this meeting ftd historic preservation commission to order. >> welcome to the san francisco historic preservation commission regular meeting for october 15, 2014. i would like to remind the audience the commission does not tolerate outbursts of any kind. please silence any mobile dwietions and before speaking to the commission if you'd care to please state your name for the record. i'd like to take roll. commission hasz. here. commissioner johns,

here. and commissioner matsuda. we do expect commissioner wolfram. commissioners, first on your agenda is general public comment. at this time members of the public may address the commission on items of interest to the public that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the commission. each member of the public may address the commission for up to 3 minutes. i have no speaker cards. >> thank you, any member of the public wish to speak on an item not on the agenda? seeing none we will close public comment. >> which places us on department matters. item 1, director report. >> tim fry, department star. the director's report was included in your packets. happy to answer any questions if you have any at this time. >> i see no questions. we'll move on. commissioners, that will place you on item 2, planning commission staff report and announcements.

>> tim fry again, department staff. just a couple items to share with you. since your last hearing two items at the planning commission, on october 2nd. first is the commission received this commission's letter suggesting the retention of the facade on the historic property as part of the proposal for 1545 pine street. at the october 2nd hearing the planning commission unanimously certificated the eir and approved the project as proposed without retaining that facade. part of the reasoning there was many commissioners or a couple commissioners remarked that they felt that the proposed design was successful and referenced the massing of the historic property from a contextual perspective and therefore they did not -- while they were appreciative of the letter they did not see retention of the facade as being an improvement

to the overall design of the proposal. at the same hearing the commission also reviewed the office conversion legislation reviewed by this commission for the benefit of the public, this is a piece of legislation proposed by supervisor cohen in regards to allowing for office conversion from pdr uses in landmark buildings. the commission had many similar comments to the hpc and unanimously recommended approval of the proposed legislation with the modifications that we discussed here. there was some public comment suggesting that there may be other methods for limiting the office conversion but the commission remarked that they felt that the vertical controls that are outlined in the proposed legislation was the most effective tool for enforcing the requirement rather than a percentage of the floor or another method of

calculation. so that will be the proposed leg will be forwarded to the board of supervisors and we will keep you updated on its progress. that concludes my remarks unless you have any questions about the planning commission. thank you. >> thank you. seeing no comments, move on. >> commissioners, that will place you under commission matters item 3, president's report announcements. >> no report. >> item 4, draft minutes for october 1st, 2014. >> commissioner pearlman. >> i just have a question. while i very much appreciate mr. fry's comments and everybody's comments, i'm wondering why we don't have all the text of the comments about the projects whereas, like i said, i really appreciate your comments, mr. fry, which are detailed quite specifically, but then we get to something like the civic center

inventory and other things and all it says is so and so spoke and this is what the commission decided. so i'm wondering -- because i would think that's where we would want to pick up a lot of the issues that we've discussed to make sure they are portrayed accurately. i don't know if there's a reason that that's not done. maybe you can --. >> just always been the practice. the minutes, requirement for the minutes is to indicate who spoke, whether or not they were in favor or in opposition or neutral to the project. we indicate those with minus signs and the plus signs, and then we very briefly paraphrase what the person said. without actually transcribing verbatim what a person says i worry that we may not provide what the person said or the intent of the person, what the person said accurately and, to be quite honest, it would be a tremendous amount of work to transcribe what

every commissioner says for every one and the final action is what matters. >> it is memorialized. >> on tape. >> it is recorded. the audio is recorded and sfgovtv does report our proceedings now. >> commissioner johnck. >> maybe suggest an idea about this because over many, many years i have done many, many minutes and they are, depending on the topic, very challenging to try to summarize, particularly the type of suggestion that we had. so i can appreciate staff's issue in response to this. but i was thinking if we feel strongly about, you know, what we said that we could submit something, right, submit something to the record that could appear in the minutes. i'm just suggesting that -- if our comments, in other words, if we thought this was really important that we should

maybe --. >> i think we could if they were prepared in advance and your comments that you provided at the hearing, you read off of those bullet points and we could include those. i would only caution providing written comments after the fact to be included in the minutes you could add things that weren't necessarily provided at the hearing. it just gets a little sketchy. >> i agree. something immediate. if we write down bullet points or something, that would be my solution. >> i certainly understand that most of the things that we're, you know, that we're talking about are fairly straightforward. there just have been a number of issues, you know, the pdr office conversion and some of these bigger things like the civic center, inventory, things like that, it garners a lot of conversation and we don't even get, we don't even have a bullet point about, you know, what the

conversation was about. so, you know, and then with mr. fry and the director there's, it's pretty much verbatim what they said and that seems less important. the report seems less important than the discussion of salient, you know, salient projects or something. so that's where i came down. but i appreciate very much the challenge it would be. >> commissioner wolfram. >> actually i just had a question about, when did we start doing this verbatim description in the beginning is pretty new, right? what did we do before? >> it is relatively new, commissioner wolfram. i appreciate you noticing that. you may recall that i was fortunate enough to hire an assistant and a manager of the commission affairs and christine lamiranda has been striving to make our minutes from the office consistent and so it's something we provide the planning commission and we

decided to provide it to you as well. it prevents us from having to second-guess what you were trying to say and just put down exactly what you said. >> and any corrections at this time? seeing none we will open up for public comment. any member of the public wish to comment on the draft meeting minutes? seeing none we will close public comment. >> and move to approve. >> second. >> thank you. >> on that motion to adopt the draft minutes for october 1st, 2014. (roll call). >> so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 7-0. and places you on item 5, comments and questions. >> i have none so we'll close commission comments. >> very good. in that case,

commissioners, it will place you on item 6, cultural heritage asset subcommittee. >> commissioner matsuda, you want to -- or commissioner hyland, the first one. >> this is a quick introduction, commissioners, about a month ago president hasz appointed a couple members of this commission to a subcommittee which met earlier this afternoon and are here to give you an initial report and just as a reminder to the public, this is a subcommittee that was created to, in order to directly respond to san francisco architectural heritage's recent white paper on cultural heritage assets and devising a way that we can, as a city but also as a commission directly respond to the recommendations

outlined in that report. so with that i'll turn it over to commissioners hyland and matsuda. >> first, thank you, president hasz, for appointing commissioner hyland and me to this subcommittee. we had our first discussion today and it's really exciting that we would be able to participate in i think a very important project that would remember and recognize a lot of intangible and tangible assets that are often forgotten about. and so instead of i think starting from scratch we wanted to start with something solid, some type of foundation that we can work from, and then expand upon it. and what better way than to look at the piece of legislation that was introduced by supervisor campos to look at heritage legacy businesses and to kind of take that and not only recognize and appreciate those

heritage legacy businesses that are in existence but also to look at those that are no longer in existence and look at that by various communities and various districts. so i kind of want to leave it at that. i'm sure that commissioner hyland would like to add some comments but this is a first, i think, of many exciting discussions that we will have to recognize really important assets in our city. >> thank you. commissioner hyland. >> i think commissioner matsuda pretty many summed it up. one thing we elected -- neglected to do was elect a chair of our committee. >> any questions for the subcommittee members? seeing none, do we take public comment on this?

>> it is an angendized item. >> any member of the public wish to speak on this item or request from the subcommittee? seeing none, close public comment. >> commissioners, in that case it will put you under your consent calendar. items listed on the consent calendar are considered routine and will be voted on in a single roll call. you have one item under consent, item 7, 201349.h, request for a major permit to alter, i have no speaker cards. >> any member of the commission wish to pull this off consent? seeing none, any member of the public wish to pull this off consent calendar? seeing none, commissioners. >> i move to approve. >> second. >> thank you. >> on that motion to approve item 7 under consent rk commissioner high

land, yes. commissioner johnck, yes. commissioner pearlman, yes. commissioner wolfram, yes. that motion passes unanimously 7-0 and places into your regular calendar be case 20142013u, the civic center cultural landscape to adopt, modify or disapprove the findings of the inventory. >> commissioners, tim fry, department staff. i'm here on behalf of grech enhilliard who is out of town this week. really just a quick update on the inventory. we certainly heard your comments at the last hearing. what we've done to date is we talked to the consultant and they are scoping out really how much work it would take to complete and finalize the history and addressing all the edits brought up by this commission but also member s of the public. i think we'll have

an estimate of how much that will cost in the next week or so, then we'll also have a better idea how long it would take them. my understanding right now is there is a small gap in their schedule so if we're able to engage with them quickly they could get this done in a fairly short amount of time. so that's the good news. right now, though, we're talking about the cost associated with it and then also we've exchanged some emails with mr. hasz who, as you know from the last hearing, has a huge amount of research available that we think could be very beneficial for the consultant in expediting the completion of this work. so, with that, and pending any of your comments or questions or those from the public i would recommend or request that you continue this item to a december hearing, either the firs
