and this is not about reclaiming a building but reclaiming a symbolic place that hold the community total and the city's ownership of the building means you are resident burglary have a safe and healthy place to gather it means we'll be able to have our families and children to thrive in the community a big thank you to john updyke and the mayor's office for this property this is been difficult i want to knowledge your hard work i'd like to go ahead and answer questions if the colleagues have questions. >> mr. updyke. >> oh, forgive me i thought we heard a lot about that. chair weiner and supervisor cowen for your rashes john updyke i don't have a lot

to add we're receiving the property for one dollars gift from the currency owners that acquired it through a trees sale we place a plaque on the property in honor of family members that gift is made in their honor, and, secondly to invest in the property capital improvements that is equivalent to their cost we thought that was more than fair and reviewing the issues the property we've certainly identified 2 hundred and 34 thirty thousand of improvements that are needed we're putting that program together and have identified the funds so i don't see that as problematic we simply want to t that up immediately after gaining position of the property and supervisor thank you and the mayor's staff in helping with the arm wrestling this seat back

where it belongs to the community for their assets and it is adjacent to raymond we're doing fantastic things to the family support services just makes sense to broaden that service to this valley. >> great. >> thank you, mr. updyke so this point in time sorry supervisor kim. >> no problem. >> actually to supervisor cowen or mr. updyke i don't know the back story but i know that probably you're familiar with the story i was reading it is great we were able to get that at a numerical cost i was curious what the story was and how we convinced the ownership to provide this back to the community i think it's a huge achievement and i can briefing

go over the asset was identified and was in foreclosing we had lee age over a - with wells fargo the property was lost to foreclosing foreclosing and went to the owner the asset and i explained how important this property was to the community and the works around about rebuilding visitacion valley and how the community center was a treasure and through several meetings convinced him to give out it back to the city so, i mean there was really no - all i had was you know the power of persuasion i was he grateful he

had a benefit haven't heart and the worse case scenario it was purchased and developed into a condo that was my concern the overall vision of what we're looking at was an anchor that will serve the go diverse ethnic community of the visitacion valley neighborhood by more generational so we've been in constant conversation and figuring out what dementia little program was going to look like and will we have tenants inside the building we have a lot of things on and up in the air getting the ownership and title we have to do a lot of work structurally the building is old but we're extremely optimistic i don't know if galileo's recall there were instances that seniors were

required to bring their own toilet paper and pg&e to keep their lights on the heat was shut off it's been hard it's exciting to bring this exciting news in the last year so for now all of 2015 john updyke and myself we're going to be figuring out the next step in terms of services that are being provided so i just want to say congratulations that's amazing not only you're able to get it at a 234078al cost and they didn't ask you for what he or she paid for it i want to acknowledge my staff thank you. >> at this point we'll on item one up for public comment any

public comment on item one seeing none, public comment is closed and supervisor cowen would i have a motion to forward item one to the full board as a committee report with a positive recommendation. >> yes. with a positive ones that will be the order madam clerk item 2. >> o'connor's the conditional use authorization for the established or establishment for 18 months. >> supervisor president tang is the author of item 2. >> thank you through the chair. >> thank you land use commission for considering the land use control i've spoken on this but said again why we have this before us today several years ago our state legislation passed the b.a. bill it

essential it created a new oversight called the massage therapy council it will have uniform regulations for massage throughout the california a huge shortfall it took away our control of the establishments that were one hundred percent certified so if all workers were certified through what we call cam tech they could bypass our health codes we've seen problems and our inability to regulate many of the establishments so we had the advocacy and partnering with the department of public health and other advocates we were able to successfully get the ab 1147 passed in 2014

through state legislator to beagles roam the pole and allow us to enforce the establishments whether or not their one hundred percent certificate so this is huge not only for san francisco but many other jurisdictions and our ability to effectively regulate so currently without the interim controls that will be folded by permanent controls in the that establishment are certified through our public health they have to go through a conditional use process if you're hedge fund percent you're able to bypass the neighborhood notification and also the reck skit we've introduced the follow-up legislation the trailing legislation and this essentially does what all

massage has to go through a conditional use whether to dp or cam pack so i'm happy to answer questions is the colleagues may happen i'd like to bring up cindy she's a wonderful helper back in 2007 a change through the board of supervisors to transfer the regulation of massage from the sfpd to dpw to dpw despite they're small staff has been crucial to our ability to again properly address the issues we see in the establishments which cindy will highlight some of which we're very worried about including the human trafficking with that i'm going to turn it over to cindy. >> thank you how do i switch.

>> sfgovtv please. >> there you go i'm cindy work in the environmental health branch of the health department i manage planning and policy today, i'm going to give you a brief official of the magazine angles particulars in san francisco i want to emphasize why the department supports the package of the internal controls this first slide shows all the magazine ages location in san francisco currently, we have 2 hundred and 36 in san francisco one hundred and 46 are permanent and regulated by dpw and the other 90 are cam pack xmentsd meaning one hundred percent of their practitioners are certified by the state and have minimal regulation by them over

from the city i gave this presentation in front of the state officials had 62 establishment so over the last year we've seen 28 new cam pack establishments on in san francisco and about 15 of those establishments used to be regulated by dpw and about trirdz of the establishment had a high number of violations as you can see many of the massage establishment are treated and in several neighborhood but approximately 70 percent of the establishment are in separate neighborhood like the sunset and the civic center and richmond and chinatown and the western edition when i did this presentation the last neighborhood was south of market now there's more moving into the geary corridor. >> so about the 90

establishment that are the cam pack examined are unregulated so what i mean by that this slide will give an outline of the dpw regulated and the cam tech exempted the dpw we issue permits and we're able to enforce violations and revoke permits this is not true of the cam pack issued by the state or dpw we charge a fee for our licenses and all the environmental health are cost recovery we're able to get the fees not true for the overlay sites and the one that supervisor katie tang spoke about we're subject to the land use controls and lastly dpw were compliant to the state trafficking and we do a lot of training for our folks and when we give the certifications

around the human trafficking part so i want to quickly talk about the consequences we've seen over the last couple of years sb 3189 of the permit sites are now win one thousand feet of the cam sites those sites have going under gotten new permits so we don't go and do any plan check of the establishments proximity active state law creates the concentration of the establishments therefore the city hat that not been able to make the choices since a lot of the establishments doesn't go through a public conditional use process and really the surplus has implemented the regulatory

authority we've not been able to do protective safety or do the inspections for the ones that are permanent it creates a two-tier system one site regulated by cam and the other by the state one of the problems we see when we specialist the massage establishment this isn't about cam tech but it's been a difficult job for the health department we've made a lot of progress although we have a long way to go we're headed in the right direction we see businesses that have illegal cameras on the outside and blocked doors and planning code violations and often see people

prohibited living within the establishments which is usually they're a sideline for people being trafficked and a lot of times we see restored practitioners really wouldn't be able under the conditions and unsanitary conditions not safe for people to be working or living there. >> so we looked at the different types of violation over 50 percent of the establishments in san francisco have at least one violation 14 percentage have more than 10 we've revoked 80 but unfortunately, because of the laws that have begun to change thirty percent of those have on and closed multiple times our estimates are thirty to 40 establishments are illegal and this is the next one is the

process that shows all the violations and it shows all the ones there's been closer what we've done commissioner chan alluded we started with the assessment on sb 6731 years ago we are worked hard with the supervisors and the mayor's office to do protective reform with the package of sb 11 we went to amended the health codes for transparency we're here with the interim controls and in a month and a half we'll all be coming before you with amendments to amend the codification of sb 11 and the endorsement and also the health department is working to make it

more fiscal effective and to incorporate the outreach workers around this legislation. >> and i'm happy to answer any questions you may have. >> no questions. >> thank you so much through the chair to dpw and, of course the planning department if anyone has questions for them but as cindy awe lutdz to we've got trailing legislation that will formalize what we're doing to make sure that we have additional tools for various departments gainful they're short on staff so with that then colleagues if there are no more questions i'll courage galileo's to get this out itch land use commission with a positive >> thank you supervisor president tang. >> any public comment on item 2? seeing none, public comment is closed supervisor kim. >> thank you. i will make that

motion as requested by the author of the interim controls i want to recognize the work that dpw has done i went with commissioner president wu fought for this issue because of the growth in her neighborhood and the budget we put aside for the information and the data that's been collected it's sad but it is great we have this data before us it helps us to better address the issues i want to thank supervisor president tang and following up with the legislation to help us better enforce this issue so i'll make the motion. >> great so the motion to get this to the full board with with a positive recommendation as a committee report and we'll take that without objection. mrashd r that will be the order madam clerk item 3. >> stebd for an additional

zoning controls for the conditional use for the financial services for the professional services. >> thank you. i'm the author this resolution extended the upper market by 6 months these controls are requiring conditional use for ground floor business and professional services and limited financial services having a commercial corridor with too many of those office like uses deadened the corridor it is important to have community oversight and with we're looking at retail galileo's space i'm looking at the development of upper market and the retail space coming online it's important we not just allow the property owners

to default to the title companies and other authorizations when when we have too much it is a problem for the neighborhood we passed 240 those interim controls last year, we've introduced permanent legislation for upper market and the castro and the 24th street and that's moving forward but we need additional time f with that, no comments i'll open it up for public comment unless the planning department wants to say anything okay. great any public comment on item 3 seeing none, public comment is closed colleagues would i have a motion to forwarded item 3 to the full board with a positive recommendation as a committee report moved by supervisor cowen we'll take that without objection. madam clerk call item 4. >> item 4 an ordinance amending the mrapd with the commercial district.

>> okay. i'm the author of item 4 colleagues, i know we've had quite a few of the arcade game regulations come 0 through the board this is the next supervisor breed and i are rationalizing the irrational approach in the please be advised the ringing of and use of cell phones, planning code i guess what some people say is a nuisance back in the day and the legislation before us will principally allow the arcades within the transit district and the legislation was considered and supported unanimously by planning commission as you recall this follows previous prevention active efforts including the legislation from supervisor breed and myself to provide an exemption from the police code for the regulations for 10 arcades along upper

market street and the laxative i sponsored with supervisor breed i know it was passed by this board and the legislation offered by supervisor breed updating the planning code with respect to the games and as recent legislation a history shows you the arresting cascade grams are regulated introduce a complicated and overlap and in both the planning code and the police code generated in 1980s during a different time the 80s they were seen as a distraction for kids and today every kid as an plantation and the pinballs are becoming a novelty and we've seen several bars on up that are centered around arcade games with the legislation the

locations along upper market will no longer be regulated how many pinball machines and will have an entertainment permit that insure the arresting david's kinds are a positive impact to the community i am considering this citywide because frankly the planning code didn't have a lot to say around the arresting cascade games we're considerably that and stay tuned to colleagues, i ask for your support. >> on i know that planning staff is here. >> good afternoon, supervisors determining sanchez with the planning department i want to say on december 18th the commission heard the proposed legislation and it unanimously recommended approval for the land moefgsz to consider up to 4

mechanic all and another entertainment uses within the upper mount that concludes my presentation. if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them thank you. >> thank you very much any public comment on item number 4 seeing none, public comment is closed and colleagues, i would you couldn't ask for a motion to forward item 4 to the full board with a positive recommendation we'll take that without objection. that will be the order madam clerk call item 5. >> amending the police code for establishment that are entered into the contracts to provide the contractors with copies of the police code. >> okay. and supervisor breed is the author of item 5 i believe that mr. johnson from

her office will be joining us this is him now there he is. >> galileo's guys move so fast here it's a good nirng thing any office is close i'm the perspective aid there supervisor breed i think that is the most important legislation you'll see all year thank you for laughing it was a joke. >> this was probably a verbal amendment that supervisor breed would have done on the floor when the two legislation were going through but it was president chiu's last meeting she didn't want to delay it the jest of it is the two pieces of formula retail that passed if december exploded new

requirements on the shutter contractor of formula retail when the lobby becomes operative on july 3rd of this year those contractors will be notified about the new contracts as negotiated, however, there is a collapse a small collapse of companies operating under existing contracts that under the current law will not be notified about the 94 new laws so all it does for the existing contractors the janitorial contractors operating under the contracts let's make sure that the formula retails disclose to the contractors and a hey, the board of supervisors just passes this and it impacts galileo's it is a notification provision nights in p there for contractors less back date that

from the pedestrian or period of january 4th and july 3rd the operator active date i want to ask in the last minute conversation with the deputy city attorney josh white we noticed something that will be probably good to fix in the legislation before you today it uses the date of april the first that mr. white pegged on the noticeable understanding it will be probably more accurate to use january 4th now the effective date of the original pieces of legislation if we could i request if galileo's could introduce a motion to amend package 23 where it says april 1st to the current effective date january 24th and liquor store page four to change that to january 4th and for the second piece that will be page

10 line 12 it says april 1st change that to january you figure out and line 14 change that to january 4th we're capturing the universe of the contractors that may have existing contracts under did you current legislation wouldn't know it if that makes sense. >> it did. >> thank you. is there any questions. >> thank you okay. is there any public comment on item 5? seeing none, public comment is closed so colleagues could i have a motion to adapt the amendments as described and so moved and without objection those amendments are adapted and can i have a motion to forward item 5 as amended to the full board with a positive recommendation >> 70. >> we'll take that without

objection. that will be the order i neglected to thank sfgovtv for broadcasting and madam clerk, any other business before this committee? >> that concludes our business for today. >> then we are adjourned
