scrutiny but it is hard it is i understand that is difficult people weren't taught my their parents not to cheat and this is cheating maybe that's a simple simplest response but certainly has to be routine by the planning commission, and may be acted upon by a single roll call vote impact not only on the affordability alls these were sold as affordable under the standards but has an impact on the aesthetics and who is going to live here so that's all i'll send this in and thank you very much for your time. >> general public comment is closed. >> next item. >> commissioners under our regular calendar 10 ab the in

of expense in the nonprofit and public sector he came to the department a long time ago as an interim a graphic designer back in the days in 2002 or so was the graphic designer that laid out the market octavia lane plan and has master's degrees if the university of washington and fortunately we'll gotten him back also on the board of the art exchange a san francisco nonprofit that provides free art classes nor the public school system with that, i'm going to turn it over to paul >> can i have the overhead. >> the laptop. >> yeah. the laptop thank you so much i'm picking up paul to present

the rincon hill streetscape plan just to give you context the rincon hill area and the transbay area were xylophones to function as one, two are to go function as one the red is transbay and the fulsome is next where the freeway used to go on fulsome it make sense for the planning through the redevelopment agency to the south in blue is the rincon hill neighborhood they're both designed with the neighborhoods with fulsome to be the commercial street you know this is used to be a light industrial neighborhood we uploaded a property the property values increased we brought it into the landscape for sidewalks and parks and so forth that's kind of what we're doing a little bit of history the

roughly a plan was drafted in 2005 genetic language the policy that the rincon hill area plan that said good fine-tune it and the department did that in 2006 it was adopted but the development ceased up the plan has been sitting on a shelf for the past awhile with the draft states so we're here today to readopted it it has been sent back we have to work with the developers to make sure we get the quality landscapes within i'm going to walk you through briefly pittsburgh it's been a long time with the documents so this is kind of an i will comic map with the cities there

is streets like the pink line that's the main street that connects people from north to south at the top with the embarcadero we call 3 living streets they have like 28 plus sidewalks that are linear open spaces those are spear and the orange streets are fremont and first connected to the freeway and the pesticide improvements but to accommodate a lot of car traffic and the alleys with the streets that are the u shaped alley system on the upper block and the dash areas in red are actually within the redevelopment agency planning once again fulsome street is the commercial street and that last block so partisan street is a better

street a generous bulb out it is for the division street so landscaping and special things here's an example of the living streets the open space as usedable open space with a 20 foot sidewalk and then first and fremont lined up are where the freeway cease happens they're a better street and accommodate automobile traffic that is the last street on the mid block alley 3 separate streets when this commission approved the lansing prong that is a dense twenty-four hour for it to meet it's open spaces it has the approval of the project was built under the streetscape plan

and have helped to push forward - the city's ability to implement and we're hoping we can fund this support. >> and then since the plan was adopted some kind of modifications we're able to have bulb outs we added the pink bulb out to improve that and those are not our regular abilities specifically called for a wider bulb out so it is 17th century feet have you have much more generous space it offers a lot of daily an furniture and street trees and the furniture palates

and we get a lot of details in addition to the curtain and this map shows you the pipeline it is why we adapt this plan today we're seeing development in rincon hill working with the developers to encourage them to build the draft plan and then just a quick note on how the implementation process the impact fees associated with rincon hill we do neighborhood outreach and report that the program for impact fees this is the cost they sort of program through the plan to date with the past projected revenues $27 million a new project we expect those numbers to go up and the past funding allocations to the parks
