to hear the rest. >> in a meeting that there was one pour that saturday early in the morning that could have been contained in the allowable hours but the night permit was requested because of a giant escape that could have been planned around the dispensaries are professional building planners and been working in 3 to have to 9 months in advance we want them to plan according. >> can you ask you similar to what i asked mr. terry we're hearing from dbi they want a pause to come up with what they'll call best practices and improvements on the other hand, we all want to reduce the disruption to you and your neighbors because it can be kreshl awful to have to deal

with extensive night noise and but and the question i've been asking i've not gotten an answerer why did it take a pause why not doing this a year ago or 9 months ago and so was there any effort noourj by dbi to try to bring people together a resolve this and improve the practices. >> at one point i'd like to answer by a set of 3 requests i would suspect the reason it was not raised the issue was in the escalated it was in the last couple of months that the construction started dbi and supervisor kim's office and the

bar-and-grills have agreed to sit down a workout the best practices there's one meeting planned for wednesday so definitely we're trying to work this out we appreciate that some work has to take place but we have to minimize that we want to request instead of 76 percent of a work week for it to be reduced 10 percent 0 through more effective planning we definitely like the idea of a thirty day or two week notice so if we could get a two week notice to the residents not emergency, of course, and repair we'll be happy that with as well so in real to limit to critical construction about the giants schedule has been out for 68 or

9 or 12 months there's going to be delays because of weather and so on and so forth so that's our request but the thirty or two weeks notice reduce to 10 percent and coordinate that with all buildings so it's really the effective coordination between all the contractor and by the way, there are 3 more buildings going to be surrounding us over the next couple of years how do we solve this for the future. >> i appreciate you guys are participating in a creative way. >> next speaker. >> follow my cohort supervisors supervisor wiener and supervisor jane kim and supervisor cohen i'm the newly

mended board of directors up in the metro and cove i'm and relief allergy from new york state we're pleased with the response of supervisor kim and her people compared to what goes on no al lane ban that is the most dysfunctional government in the u.s. thank you for listening to our case we've described our off hours construction noises we'll have 50 people submit written descriptions of what they've gone through the loud construction noise are as early as one a.m. and run through 5:00 a.m. it's not just late evenings and midmorning throughout the night the

sleeping hours we have been told by some of the developers this is likely to last for 4 years that is about the additional additional buildings we in the metropolitan are surrounded by cranberries and the construction is topping off at 60 stories we're only thirty stories so we get this tremendous ground swell of noise and problems we want to be reasonable we have willing to compromises we're for a balanced response we know we need to add buildings and residents and commercial and we're all for the best practices that have been mentioned so thank you for that one last want somebody said we should call been the police 311

no result. >> i hear you. >> thank you. >> yeah. thank you very much. next speaker. >> good afternoon. i'm chushg indeed right now in san francisco there is unprecedented demand for office buildings and residential housing, infrastructure so on and so forth we as developers and the building communities are doing everything we can to respond to that demand and do it as quickly as possible as a developer believe me we push those guys as hard as we can to get the projects did you as quickly as possible 0, however, they're very, very challenging, complex,

intercity suburban sites all sites have is gotten very, very technical and complex issues we talk about an additional concrete pour or a crane erection or something like that every one of those are very complex, highly planned operations and every one of them are they hazardous concrete pours their could be one hundred concrete trucks lined up throughout the nicest and crane erections you're raising a crane with hydraulics when you join those types of context operations with the public it increases the danger tenfold and we're talking about if there was things that were done 3 or 6 or 9 most in advance yes each major

site has got a very rigid complex group of recollections they eye before they request those types of night noise permits at a offices in my opinion and our industries opinion we while we really respect and commemorates with all of the folks we place safety ahead of inconvenience those are very hazardous and dangerous operations that's why we schedule them at night the logistics and cranes and work in the street their difficult complex operations best practices the regulations are there i remember the example of the giants game is to highly unusual we don't take this light we do our bet to be credible

discretionary we want to protect the people of san francisco the families those guys go home to we want to protect them as well thank you thank you very much and before we get to the next speaker i've got a if i for cards i'll call out those names (calling names) oh, i'm sorry my apologies. >> thank you, supervisors my name is my name is pier 27 i work for a construction company we have an awesome job near the transbay terminal as a general contractor we're going to be here for a long time we want to be responsible and do the

right-hand corner for the community you know scheduling the work and crews and making sure it will happen at right time we need consistent rules we actually plan to install a line across will fulsome street tonight you don't want to do that during the day it can be disruptive and have crews that would have been working their physically sitting at home 10 or 15 workers that are not going to get a wage i want to put a real face on what's happening. >> thank you very much there are people that would have been working that are not working. >> yes. thank you >> next speaker. >> ms. rogers. >> alice roger from the bay

neighborhood association i'm here really to support this very and he hope short time hiatus while i've not been on the task force of the neighborhood that are working directly on the issue i've sat in on meetings so long as 3 months ago where any number of the department heads were around the table so calculation on this issue has been going on i'm sorry. it's come to a head bus there's really a critical mass that needs just a temporary stop our neighborhoods have been dealing with a lot of quality of life issues and with the cooperation of our supervisors and the departments thought the city we've had an amazing success rate of negotiating

solutions so that everybody has a win-win situation i'm certain that you can do it i'm certain it is extremely complex but it can be done. >> thank you very much. is there any additional public comment on item number 5 please come forward. >> good afternoon. i'm andy are sufficientlyic construction managing the 340 he fremont project yeah. we've we're going to be there for awhile a couple more years we have noise permits that will be a pour our first one was approved and the second one was denied and worked that dbi to start that pour tlatd but

there's a change. >> it might not be happening due to the construction and the giant game to schedule your activities around a giants game unfortunately, we tried to do it a week before there are resource constraints also a challenge to balance that act with regards to the night permits we're trying to reduce the impact to the overall community my heartstrings go out to the pregnant mom i've had 3 daughters i know what my wife goes through there are others who are impacted it's a net benefit to the community if it's a traffic related or safety

issue things like that socioso we've done our outreach to the metropolitan and we actually have established i think you've heard a night noise committee with the rest of the general contractors we meet every two weeks and report once a month we have good practice in place what was dishastening to receive the notification of quote/unquote policy change >> sir. >> we would like to explorer you. >> so the notification you've received you'll get from this hearing the disagreement or whatever you want to call it not about the impacts but the process so before receiving the notification that the night noise permit pause or moratorium

or no more permits before that notification was issued by dbi is that the first you've heard of it. >> yes. >> was there any outreach before that hey if we can't resolve this. >> we've had multiple meetings working with the dbi and the metropolitan they're the biggest concerns but had great conversation and strides which is dis haesht. >> did dbi talk about a moratorium. >> no. >> to out of the blue. >> yes. although dbi has been good to work with the metropolitan we've been exchanging concerns in the last 2 and a half he months meeting with the general contractor there's about 6 of us we've

reduce the night time permits in the area. >> thank you. next speaker. >> supervisors dave osgood from rhine con point area one of the second points through recent definitely needs to be consistent ripens and practices in place a common problem we have with those cranes that show up i think we've gone through three or four times in our neighborhood where those cranes are set itch theirs 20 to thirty stories at all kind of the same problem they show up dpw closes the centers friday night to

monitor morning they'll show up friday night early saturday morning and spend six or seven hours setting up those huge cranes when they come in on big trucks and pound those together it's like any steelwork they take sledgehammers and put it together so it's up and ready to go maybe 8 in the morning and the work or they maybe putting age vac equipment on a rooftop they'll take it down we exclaim we hear they can only mask this equipment in the middle of the night but when they've wrapped up at 4 o'clock all of a sudden they leave and they're going down the street with the big equipment the other so we need consistent

stories and rules on that other thing you need to include the pd as small business mentioned 311 and the police department provides zero support of existing enforcement thank you. >> thank you very much. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors peter with the carpenters local 22 in san francisco memoriam colleagues pretty much have said most of everything the issue i'm bringing to the table today i've notice the two contractors noted allowed to get a permit in one case 8 carpenters dispatched and another that was supposed to be dispatched not until the moratorium is or this pause so

to speak is turned around so gwen's it effects the my members and in turn affects the operating engineers as the iron workers down the line most cases people that live in the city of san francisco and in our cases as carpenters if you're not swinging a hammer you're not making money if it rains no money and consequencely we hope you'll move that along and get it to its final resolution. >> thank you very much. is there any additional public comment item 5? seeing none, public comment is closed okay. did supervisor kim >> yeah. i mean, i'll make a

couple cho's comments thank you folks when we called for this a month ago we weren't anticipating this level of turn around committed to work with our contractors and developers and everyone so make sure we're putting forward a ballads proposal and as those buildings go up more residents will move in and we have many more blocks we're arching out and one is going to be coming up in the next item but many more blocks are going to be built out along the full name street corridor we want see a guideline that our residents can understand why and when their issued and some clear notifications and how the notification process happens i want to appreciate we have some

standards and best practices in place and dbi has outlines some of those that happens with dbi and, of course, like our contractors to be valuable to our residents i do imagine this will be a temporary prohibition we're going to move forward maybe in a week or two as we work through some of the procedures and processes i do appreciate all the mind and effort spent on an important area and growing area and look forward to the is final outcome and policy moving forward. >> thank you. i want to agree this is really exciting is what's going on there especially once we get the

downtown extension down a hub regionally and amazing one day we'll get there and this will seem like choiven history but in in the meantime i'm glad there is a process in place to try to make sure the best practices are being used and night work is being done when it needs to be happening i applaud the building inspection for being robust to a residential neighborhood in addition to other things my concern is that it shouldn't take the shutting down of a permit process to do that it shouldn't take the shit down of a process laying people off from work and preventing projects from happening i know there have been conversations happening but

dbi could have been doing this all along and issued guidelines and you coming in come up with best practices and alternated it criteria around the premiers and the adapting department has win its power to do that outline along it shouldn't have taken a shut down or policy change to stop issuing those permits to do that so that's any concern a very, very it is a heavy handed way of accomplishing what the department has in pits power to accomplish without resorting to this i hope this process works its way through very quickly and i hope in the future whether it's in this part of the city or any other part there's those challenges that can be worked

out without not issuing permits toe fourth and we can't tell you exactly how long maybe a month but who guess so so that's my concern and i applaud everyone that is going to participate in trying to make it a reality that work will resume and do so in a way that will be minimizing the impacts so thank you for everyone that came out today and supervisor kim do you want to continue this to the call of the chair. >> for now continue to the call of the chair. >> so continue to the call of the chair we'll take that without objection. thank you madam clerk call item 6. >> item 6 is an ordinance approving a group for, llc in the transbay project area. >> and the mayor and supervisor

kim are the co-sponsors of item 6 supervisor kim. >> folks could please save the conversations for outside that would be great. >> we encourage you to talk outside. >> yes. supervisor kim. >> thank you, colleagues speaking will transbay and downtown and rincon point before us is a developments to allow a variance to build the one site obligation for the project manager to pay a fee while the policy i prefer on site unites in particular for our rental housing in this particular six the developer has agreed to contribute a fee for more affordable housing in the transbay area i want to

recognize our ocii director tiffany bohe along with her former person michael for their work and council on the unique circumstances in transbay district i'm sure you're aware of this is an redevelopment area plan we've been lauded by the state to wind down under our state agreement we've committed to 35 percent of affordable housing which is an incredible goal four our thank you it meet because of the building of transit that makes it a smart growth neighborhood they've worked with our office to push to have the highest fee available and i want to recognize i know that mayor's office of housing director olsen

lee also advised us in the process under this proposal 181 fremont pays a fee differing from the other fees judge context if 181 were able to oven their unit they'll pace $85 million they ocii has negotiated this developer will now pay $13.8.03 times more than what they would have paid only for the creation of affordable housing within the transbay project area to really counter some of the concerns b around segregation we're assuring those below market rate will happen in the neighborhood two blocks away

from fremont vs. the 11 units on site and the 65 new units will be available 60 percent ami and that will again only to 10 units in the building allowing for deeper affordable and 181 fremont will pay fees and the communities benefit district assessment and has supported the formation of the district and not participate in my effort to propose or litigate we will appreciate they'll help to build our term we're proposing moechgsz which we've circulated to our offices and i'll present later and this project is already under construction but will provide 12 hundred union jobs and have local hiring

agreement and meeting their goals for local hire they've broad support and the communitycy recognitions the housing projects this highlights a policy concern our office has had with above o below mandatory our potatoes people's can pay the moshths but not the hoa knowing that hoa fees can go from 5 hundred to $4,000 a month a high amount for our middle-class residents. >> supervisor cohen a expressing shock at $4,000 a month hoa fees but that's some of the fees by your luxury

condos and those high-rise condos 181 represents a general writing we efforts for folks to live in the area and become active members we're working hard to obtain and finally, i want to say our office is working with the mayor's office of housing to explore the concept of developer fees we recognize that a condo fee shouldn't pay the same faye fee as in the excelsior neighborhood what's excited about the negotiation is puts precedence on allowing us surveillance based on the value of units and hope had this will not leave dollars on the table how to
