we have examples of other locals and how they are looking at and it's actually a very widespread issue. the california lafco association general annual meeting is going to have a panel on broadband and if it is, i will make sure you are well aware. they don't deal with what this lafco does, but i will make sure that others are informed about it. >> make sure peter informs my staff about the massachusetts efforts. i know at least with good conversations with monkey brains who have been testifying before us and the internet archive effort the more locally based higher internet process for people with less access, i'm hoping we look

at different options including what other states and jurisdictions are doing. thank you. >> so that was part a and we have part b of our agenda. >> i did part a and b together there. >> we actually had a and b for item no. 4. and i believe that discussion about proceeding at the public utilities commission and california public utilities commission was inter woven for general discussion for cleanpowersf and discuss the timeline. was there anything that you know of in terms of the proceedings and the california public utilities commission that was not addressed or included? >> i asked while that was going on and there was nothing new to add that was added at last month's meetings for state level items. >> okay. thank you.

so, in a concludes your report. okay. we can open this item up for public comment. anyone who would like to comment, please come forward. >> good afternoon, one more time, eric brooks san francisco clean party on sf. the undergrounding in broadband and fiber, first of all the mold, the outstanding model in the united states is chattanooga tennessee where they are getting great service for $25 a month. let's put chattanooga front and center. on that issue, the obama administration and sf puc under the obama administration did something amazing and has locked in the protection for internet

neutrality, internet equality and the obama administration last a couple more years and that is going to change . if we are going to build a citywide public broadband open to all income levels, we need to start now. i would urge lafco to front and center this system. to get it ready to go as soon as we have cleanpowersf off the launch pad and elections which i think was listed in the agenda. this is a little bit more of a future thinking item like public banks. the voting has improved things but it's not doing what progressives thought it was going to do to improve the elections and make-up the board of supervisors. i

think we should start changing the board of supervisors to' representation to bring a lot more public diversity and a lot of activist would run because they would have a chance to win. it may profoundly approve a city government. >> that's intriguing. is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. go on to our next item. city clerk: item no. 6, public comment. >> general public comments related to lafco. if anyone would like to further the discussion on recommendation. that would be welcome. seeing no one coming forward, we'll close public comment.

>> next item. city clerk: future agenda items. >> colleagues, any future items? commissioner crews? >>cynthia crews: i was going to ask something from the department to come and talk to us about cleanpowersf in addition to types of efficiencies that customers can do now through pg & e. >> great, that sounds really great to do. if director fried, if we perhaps can look into that for the next lafco meeting. i think it would be a good time to do that next month. if you can work vice-chair crews and the department, that would be great. >> i will try to get them for next meeting.

>> thank you. we'll open this up for public comment. >> commissioner crews opened this up and it's really important. eric brooks, san francisco clean party, san francisco clean energy advocate. this behind the meter thing is really crucial. it's really important to point out that what cal had on the department of environment that funds that pg & e has forced to take out of the bill to allow the city to work with the funds. cleanpowersf gives us an at some point to greatly ramp up the amount of funds spend on energy and more than what the department of environment is doing now and to enable this from the department of environment to do on solar and not just efficiency. that was

behind the meter as well. as i said before, that was the one lack in the enernex report and we haven't flushed out the meter resources by having contractors work on right away and setting the timeline no the to exceed rates to start working on planning out the meter to start working on this so the department of the environment can do something truly amazing and not just work with the funds that pg & e is forced to take out which are much smaller. i would reiterate what commissioner crews said and back it up. we need to get that rolling and the san francisco department environment a big role in the whole idea of the behind the meter and part of this and the behind the meter to be cooked up in a plan and we need to start planning these things now and that gets back to the mantra

to get to the rate fairness board immediately so the board can vote for them as quick and possible and that gives us the framework to do all this. >> thank you very much. >> commissioner crews? >>cynthia crews: i definitely don't want to steal mr. broom head's thunder but he has some pretty fantastic idea. i met with him and he walked me through that cleanpowersf showed much greater than that then ever provide right now pg & e. i think it's exciting and would love for it to be broadcast so members of the public can see that as well. thank you. >>supervisor john avalos: that sounds great. thank you for your work on that. so we go on to our next item. city clerk: item 8. adjournment. >>supervisor john avalos: colleagues

that concludes my report and is the appellant here? good morning, commissioners john with reuben, junius & rose here on behalf of the project sponsor since we were last here we asked joe duffey to come out and talk about life safety issue there were no one we're moving forward decided to maintain our request from the board for a 10 year moratorium on enforcement of the order of abatement due to financial hardship that is the property owners mother that lives in the basement she's 0 no longer able to live diligently and can't afford to live it sth

in 2, 3, 4 this neighborhood we looked at the abatement of the unit while that's available this is a single-family home neighborhood the purpose to provide the accomodation for the elderly mother and the intent not to create a new unit to be rented this is the property owner home so it is not intending to skier to create a second unit that's why we maintain the request for the moratorium and we're here for any questions you may have >> questions for the commissioners? okay. seeing none thank you. >> does the department want a rebuttal. >> it's deservedly in your hands. >> thank you. >> question for the attorney

this is we have to vote on this today; right? whether to grant the moratorium or consider it. >> you could vote or decide to continue it and come back to the next meeting it's up to you. >> commissioner vice president melgar. >> so we ask thank you very much and i am ready to vote on this today, we considered it at the last meeting so i'll be for voting on it today. >> thank you commissioner walker. >> i have a question on the threshold for the moratorium as to financial hardship does it apply to the owner of building. >> the requester has to be the owner of the building and

demonstrate the financial hardship. >> what do we require. >> it's a judgment call for you. >> okay. thank you any other comments. >> so this situation commissioner walker trying to lead the point of view the hardship is this is the elderly motto facilitate her and for nomination in the house that's a hardship to me; right? >> i get it now just wanted to can i have another question. >> oh, commissioner walker so we consider the conditions right now but in the event that the person who's being accommodated the elderly

relative if there's a passing of that person what prevents someone else from coming in to occupy this i mean, i think that we need to look at the short term and long term in how we discuss that i think. >> the answer put a condition in the moratorium for the particular individual is no longer living to notify dbi that brings before you a recession of the moratorium for the date. >> okay. thank you. >> commissioner mar. >> so given the information i agree with commissioner vice president melgar i'm ready to move on it i make o a motion to uphold the moratorium for 10 years or if the current tenant

is no longer living on the premises one or the other. >> i second the motion. >> a couple of other decisions one to be month missouri no further modifications during the moratorium that's one you could add you might want to request a floor plan identifying the issues and not be expanded and changed and incorporate that going into the floor plan many say a tentative decision and you could require the applicant to seek documentation to seek no life safety issues and require the department to save what is needed in the documentation to be considered as well. >> okay. thank you commissioners mr. sweeney the

inspection did a inspection and found no life safety done last week. >> commissioner walker. >> can we amend this to reflect the suggestions of the attorney we require a floor plan and statement of conditions noting that it doesn't violate no health not safety issues that are imminent here and also require if the person there new months out they have to notify dbi of that. >> and to the further language stating no further notifications are allowed and i assume that's a motion. >> i think i have to start over i think. >> mia any further commissioner

comments. >> seeing none, there's a motion and second for this to you uphold the order of abatement and so someone wants to restate that motion? >> the motion was a uphold the order of abatement and grant the moratorium with the following considerations that at person occupied the moratorium is uphold until 10 years or the person motives out and no further notifications made during the abatement and documenting the condition and that the donation be submitted to the department confirming no code violations anybody take exception to that.

>> okay. thank you. >> yeah. thank you, commissioners i think we're comfortable with the conditions i want to make two points in terms of life safety and health issues we've had the inspection i wonder what the property owner will do if in fact, it's happened i feel we confirm that. >> the question for our attorney is it sufficient that the donation is sufficient. >> i think it is fine you should have that incorporated into the decision. >> do you have a record. >> just verbal but we can get a note. >> this dbi can provide that. >> and one other question upheld the order and the moratorium i'm hoping it didn't allow for the fees or finances to accrue during that period that's my only concern.

>> does the moratorium automatically stop the fee role. >> i think you put it in one of the provisions. >> fees to this point and not beyond. >> yeah. thank you. >> our decision. >> thank you, commissioner. >> is that okay sonya. >> any public comment on that item? seeing none, we'll do a roll call vote commissioner president clinch commissioner vice president melgar commissioner mccarthy commissioner mar commissioner lee commissioner mccray and commissioner walker the motion carries unanimously. >> okay. is there my general public comment for items not on the abatement appeals board
