d a half i happen to know the answer having worked at the planning department it is permitted it needs to be business-related. >> that's - the former supervisor wrote the legislation knows the legislation well. >> (laughter). >> what a trick question. >> i wanted to make sure we're in compliance that addresses some of commissioner brandon's questions. >> i was asking about the tenants signage and i. >> and we get the sense there's a demand for that but not gotten to that point in being able to study it. >> perhaps some appreciable signage as it exceeds a seat belt amount perhaps that's when we'll be looking at charging for

larger signs maybe if the tenant wanted you know something much larger we'll exposure. >> we've looked pier identity and saying how much is a pier would you cupping occupy before you'll qualify for that we haven't looked at a pricing instructor but certainly expand this at the commissions interest to place it so we have that tenant so it's ton site not general advertising fits within that tenant that tenant is within the facility it goes on. >> so thank you i think it understand the commissioner commission has an interest in the sign program once we get something set.

>> not necessarily (laughter). >> i was just saying like the small bloomberg sign outside the door but if bloomberg minded their name on the outside of the pier 53 we should charge of they're not a tenant. >> like having on major buildings put their name on the top of building they pay a fee for that. >> as dan alluded to there's co-recollections to the amount of space look at the amount of space they occupy. >> i think we're him or her one the issues we have being waterborne tours most of the piers are transit shut they're not putting in the back, if you will, it will behove us to have

no more identification from the waterside we're explorer that the only tenant is pier 72 hour 39 through the use of flags in the back that's on the docket we're not as evolved in our thinking as you are. >> i had is a a couple of specific questions that occurred to me i appreciate the effort to standard device this i know it's easier for the guidelines for staff and the tenants this is also a hot bottom issue or hornet nest a couple of questions on the temporary signages and the bartenders just a wording in section 3 maybe predicament up to two temporary signs is that at a time per month this is the timing needs

to be specified. >> what's included in the staff report of the current sign. >> we keep editing those but thank you. >> (laughter). >> we will be describing to you the draft we'll look at very differently and have a completely different format and everything we've discussed here today. >> and awning i think one of the parts we want to particularly focus on the projection out from the building i notice several of the works are in violation of the current guidelines or at least if their sienlz on is that counted on the building didn't it meet the two inch or the 6 inch or the cause of the banners projecting out. >> the proposed guidelines will have the - the canopies are 5 or

6 feet out from the building a chance to provide that commercial identity and specify metal or glass for the canopies we do that with our experience working with the historic preservation officer how we can add signage and identity to a building in a light weigh so it will give specific materials how to do that including the banners we'll be proposing a 3 foot width or 12 or 15 foot width to match the scale of the arc area. >> it's important to mention the guidelines that are quote/unquote guidelines were not adapted by the planning commission; is that correct they've been a guidance we've

used in discussions with our tenants and through the various projects over the past couple of years we've tried to apply those uniformly so to speak the written guidelines needs to catch with the guidelines do you want to add something to that bryan the question are we ought in front of the commissioned approvals or not we adapted the current guidelines. >> the commission did. >> i know the draft report contains the draft number but we've learned so much since that at this point in time about the historic district it's time to take a fresh look at those and not tweak the existing whops but a complete rewrite. >> okay

if i could add diane i know from the planning and development the ideas of canopies are new elements as part of the historic preservation this highlights the need to update our sign guidelines we worked with ship and trying to find a way to have that formerly recognized in our guidelines. >> thank you that's exciting i know its people are looking for ways to put up signage it's important we have improved and clear guidelines and restrictions some uniformity thank you. i'm looking forward to seeing what you're coming up with. >> new business.

>> a number of the items on an informational basis that will come back for actions navigation i think there are 3 follow-up items another update on the south beach harbor the tier bertha rates we've discussed at length and second i'll definitely commissioner ho explorer the cyber security i assure you there's something going on i don't know when i'm allowed to say i apologize and the third item i have was when we lock in a performer for the place making phase of 337 we call the pop up event space to bring it back for your consideration or your review. >> so those are the 3-d i

mission anything. >> commissioners. >> the commissioners commissioner president katz and commissioner brandon they've been here a lot longer than can you beef us on sinbad i want to know the history i'm to be briefed if there's anything we can be doing under the executive session thank you. >> certainly. >> okay. commissioner spoken. >> oh outlook i had the same one. >> that maybe need to be coming into the executive cigarettes that pertains to some settlement. >> we'll certainly take a look at that the best formats for bringing it back to be discussed. >> i think that. >> i move to adjourn.

>> second. >> all in favor, say i. >> i meeting is adjourned thank you, everyone. >> thank you happy new year welcome

to north beach. sunny day. thank you everybody for coming out. especially if i if i may special thanks to all of our board of supervisor who

are here today. elected officials, our commissioners, police and fire department. people. the city are recreational about our libraries, all of this is is better up here. many of whom i've engaged in many dialogues around the last month. i want to say thank you everyone for getting your input to me. you know, i want to say that this is an exciting day. while my little tired because of all the activities of the last 30 years, i had to do a marathon i know that this isn't, district 3, is a very, dated, very diverse, and one of the most exciting districts in all of san francisco. >>, >> >> i recognize that because i spent a good part of my adult professional career indecision degree in chinatown and i know that chinatown, north beach

told rafael, russian hill, nabil, both lower and upper and middle, middle upper, lower you know, fisherman's wharf, the financial adjuster, the waterfront, it's incredible diversity that makes up this district. that's why when i had a many many chats with david chiu before he successfully left his position to kind of understand what he had gone through as a supervisor for this district, it's no less important that every other district in san francisco. i say to you with great gratitude to the members of the board because i know that for the last 30 days i spent some great time here and i kind of put myself a little bit in what a supervisor would do on a daily basis. i was down there at lombard street on the backside making sure that cliff wasn't

going to be following when we got those heavy rains. i reordered myself for what i did many years ago i'm just walking the streets as i had copied with different people of different interests. to talk about what this district needed. and quickly came to the conclusion, after so much great input by people, that they wanted someone who recognized the strength of this diverse community in this gesture. was willing to spend hours understanding the issues, glistening before acting, but then acting to make sure things got done. and when whether it was potholes, transportation, housing, safety, all these things, cultural, art, playgrounds, families, seniors, renters, property owners as well, all of that came in to play and was all the diverse topics that had to be covered.

i also came to the conclusion that i needed to find someone who had the experience as well as the commitment to do this job and you know, i even had a chance to talk with several members of the current board of supervisors to kind of see what they go through on a daily basis and i've been with them as i've gone through different core doors of the city. i have shared with them the things that come my way along with things that come their way and will more we've gotten together closer with the board of supervisors. and i hope that's been reflected in the kind of conversations we had have had on a citywide basis. but getting back to the station, it gave me a really good sense of what it needed and the characteristics of a person, they are compassion as well as their advocacy for this district become very important. well you know, i want to say

that i found somebody that reflected that. someone who spent a good 20+ years living in this district. a business owner. a small business owner, but also somebody that has been also out here putting together campaign after campaign to improve parks, preserve open space, improve that open space . i've known julie since my city administrator days when she and so many others told me here to make sure we got those library done. isn't this a fantastic library, jeff [applause] >> i wouldn't say it's no longer your grandfather's grandmothers library. this is an interactive library with so many generations of people. same things that happened with this joe dimaggio part with

julie's leadership and leadership of this board and relationships that are being built. >> [applause] >> i also want to say this. that i know you should know, this is been a very, dated decision-making. i've had to talk -- the way i make a decision was to write was the right way. it somebody that i did before and that is talk to the people. make sure that you make a connection to the people live here who work here every day. get their input because that's going to ground this decision. i did that and i got grounded very quickly and i'm confident that worked on have a lot of shared stories, a lot of shared history, but a lot of shared accomplishments of julie christiansen. you know, i've seen in her the spark, the innovative spirit mike the dynamism that this district needs. i know that she will be as much a advocate for this area of the city as she will be

for chinatown, for polk street, for venice, cover all parts of the entire district. i know she will do that because she's got that spirit and that commitment. i know that she will also reach across to all the members of the board of supervisors and be a good compatriot i'm at a good supervisor that works with the others. as she clearly has a support. and so, i'm excited to introduce to you someone who has been a very good figure here, but also an active person, capers district but also someone who is now going to be in the public round representing all of this district neighborhood and supervisor. please, let me present to you the next supervisor for district 3, julie christiansen. >> [applause] >> okay let's take this moment

and just take a breath. i'm usually hounding the past to talk to them. it's kind of interesting to go the other way around. people asked how far i'd be willing to go to look after district 3 and i hope this answers the question. i want to thank mayor lee. when a person puts this kind of trust in you it's kind of awe-inspiring and i am truly humbled by the confidence that he has in my ability to take on this important district especially because i know how important this district is to him traditionally. i'm very grateful for that. it's interesting to me that mayor lee started out as a community activist and as a civil servant and only entered politics when he felt that was the way to do more. i know were all grateful for that and i take it to heart

because although it was not my original intention to come into politics, i decided that the way that i can get done some of the things we need to get done in district 3. and so i am honored to put myself in the service of the city. district 3 , interesting place. i know just ask arlette showed everybody thinks there's a special. ours is special. we are the cradle of san francisco. it's where the city started in our neighborhoods were the first neighborhoods of the city. consequently, we are exceptionally dense compact area. we supply a lot of housing to the city of san francisco and so while the city's attention is a lot on the shiny baubles to the south and to the west of us, we are doing our bit to provide housing for thousands and thousands of people. and that -- we traded we've traded our parking, our spacious apartments, even our backyards. we've traded that for a coziness and a

compactness. we've traded it for a community and for affordability. i think for all of us who love the charm of north beach imac we also recognize the fact that it's affordability is what keeps it covers and keeps it interesting and what makes it district 3 and so surely, one of the main goals for anyone in my office needs to be to keep our neighborhoods are affordable to keep the families and the seniors that i work a lot with, to make sure that they can stay here to keep the wide variety of people that we have, the aetna ethnicities the economic levels, the professional pursuits, we are proudly diverse neighborhood. we want to stay that way. affordability also means accessibility and some of you know, i've been involved in transportation efforts to try to make our residences at our jobs more

accessible. we supply a lot of jobs in this neighborhood, especially lower and medium skill levels and we want to make sure people can get to work. we want make sure that workers that within our neighborhoods can get to their jobs elsewhere. it's not a good thing to the 30 on not being the emblem of stalled transit across the city. so, we need to work on the infrastructure in our neighborhood. we love our streets. we love their walk ability and their charm and we want to find a way to keep our street safe and fun to be on. a joy for visitors as well as residents. so we need to work on the infrastructure that will allow us to remain mobile in the district. because we are so dense, we don't have a lot of open space so our parks have been a passion of mine. we are grateful to bill ginsburg and his department for working with us on the joe dimaggio playground. is he is luis here? in the library who helped us this beautiful new library and did many of the people that stand behind me. and so, we

need to take extra care to provide services to the people that live in this neighborhood. that is a passion of mine that's surely not going to change. we are the golden goose for the city. we have the shopping, we have the business centers, we have the tors and centers. i think surely every visitor to san francisco comes to district 3. we welcome them. we do our bed best to provide for that but making sure we can do that and was that's pleasurable for both visitors and for residents is another important task. so, all of these things by before us. i think those of you who know me, i hope no me as an honest and fair and passionate person. always willing to have a chat. that surely is not going to change. it's kind of fun being waged here. i feel like my neighborhood family in front of me and my city family behind me. the supervisors and the department personnel mayor's

office, they have worked with us so well in the past on important neighborhood projects and i surely hope that will only improve. and i am grateful to all of you. a special shout out to my husband, greg smith. there is quite? there in the back and my sister, eileen a christiansen who got very early to fly in from portland to fly in today to be here today. who represents a loving family elsewhere. but, this is a pretty major decision and having greg's support in all this is key. i certainly could not have even consider this without him. so, it's that the medic 28 suffragette and these have lots of years of practice i'm afraid. but, but also to all of you. really guys, this is our date this is your day. a lot of us have worked together for a couple -- >> [applause] georgia signed sealed delivered. >> signed sealed delivered. so

we work together. some whispers long as 20 years. i think that's -- nothings going to change about the way we do things. we have search for opportunities. we have solved problems. we have, in a civil and respectful and progressive manner dived into the really tough questions for our district and whether it's making clay tower accessible or providing adequate levees services with or whether it's creating the kind of open space we want to keeping our streets safe, keeping lombard from being crushed by falling ficus trees we know how to work together and we done it well and

the victories of our efforts are all around us. my hope is we have many many more to come. because of a powerful lever in city hall now and you know all worked very hard for you. so, thank you all very much for your support in the past. i'm going to need it in the future and thank you to the mayor into the city family for their support. thank you all. >> [applause] >> thank you so i think julie is to get some well-deserved congratulations and kisses from her friends family. and if there's other questions i can take them to decide. thank you very much for being your ticket by day in san francisco. thank you. >>
