harder about the proposal i thought i was in the minority but i have found the vast majority of people oppose that especially the way the some is set up on the creative side that makes this little bubble it seems like everybody is for it when the vast majority of people does not approve this or want it i can't afford to pay to have my car parked in front of my house the way you guys want me to have my car parked you want me to leave my car parked as much as possible it takes me longer to find parking i'm relying willing to do that but forcing people to

3:13 pm
parking one thing i object to by creating two blocks the pathway doesn't work why not create the same rules for the hole park plenty of turnover isle i've been walking and searching for parking the spots will on up but there's two blocks that the rules do apply most of the stops on my park or on the odds the minnie's can get the curb spreadsheets spots but the rest of the cars don't fit so they'll be enough turnover again, thank you for your research our close not quite there i'd like a little bit of tweaking to make it fair for the whole area where
3:14 pm
the whole rule is applying don't worry about the toufrpdz i tourists they'll find a spot but the residents please help us residents equally. >> (clapping). >> hi, i'm paul for the area q proposal thigh i completely area a sliding scale payment for people that can't afford the $110 a year and the about guy that mentioned the construction that is something that should be take into consideration an incredible amount of krublgs near the upper hate and some sort of policing for the construction signs that needs to be non-considered by the construction people so it makes it hard, however with that said, i've lived in

3:17 pm
known as the classic bait-and-switch fraud department in the city and county of san francisco it is no wonder tea party people are concerned about government at all levels it's time we all step forward and got it and supported what the staff told the rest of us to keep us quiet about the loss of the parking spaces in the proposals (clapping) >> thank you (calling names). >> for the neighborhood coincidental first of all i'd like to object in the staffs presentation that the hate ashbury the publication of the council was shown and the statement was that there's been a lot of public information and outreach around this the article if you read it was complaining

about the hate ashbury council i've never heard about this and no public hearing of last year this is now the 3rd and only third public hearing that's been held on the topic that is the closest it has come to supporters being less than thirty percent of those testifying the omittance majority of sentiment and public testimony has been opposed to this project both in november (clapping) and earlier this year the omittance majority is is hate ashbury council u council their opted e opposed to the designation of this area we're specifically opposed to the designation of that area that portion of area q that is south of the panhandle and west of the

3:21 pm
effected areas you know i tried really hard to make this a go i think that will benefit the neighbors and leave here in trying to keep their lives here i think this is a time and needs to be evaluated on an ongoing basis i'm looking at the process to examine it we've been talking about that for 3 years and i support it thank you (clapping.) >> (calling names). >> hi, i'm tony house painter i've had a house painting business and live in the alamo square for the last 19 years i've reduced my vehicle size to a small honda it works for me, i

3:24 pm
make a few point we've circulated a few petitions this weekend and quickly were able to get 88 signatures on square feet.org a broad opposition and i'm in opposition to this measure we've heard from many folks including the staff say this is imperfect and my second point in regards to the data this is the survey data there of the proposed and includes about 10 blocks where permit parking was in place the 40.78 percent the survey 0 show you shows you the data and i understand the frustration you know we all want to find parking but unfortunately, this proposal puts a burden on several people
3:25 pm
and will not help as the data clearly shows i'd like to urge the board to wait until the recommendations for fixing this as mentioned were brought to bear or perhaps consider other tools like 45 or 90 degree angle parking in place as we have on some streets (clapping.) i'd like to add the proposed blocks must be of a low or medium characterize as stated on the sfmta website now this is a density map of the blocks proposed there are 4 blocks within area q between steiner and webster and golden gate and fulsome that are designated designated beas 4 was the density so it's a problem opposed thank you very much.
3:26 pm
>> (clapping.) (calling names) and then harlan jones. >> i'm jeanette baemz i represent the daughters of golden west we have the building at 5 acre at fulsome almost at the corner our building was built in 1928 for our members would come from all over california for meetings sometimes because family members have medical appointment at ucsf and some people like myself that work inform city college of san francisco myself a third generation san franciscan this will greatly impact our members we have 90 degree parking on the 900 block of barking so garages for people that live in the building permanently but 21 beds for
3:27 pm
people that are members who come from different parts of california for their meetings that support some of the organizations like the children's foundation and so when they come to meet they come for a couple of days we currently park 3 cars from the driveway and residential parking we won't be able to park in our own driveways so i hope we can exclude that block but both the p extension and the q about effect us we're right at fulton and a baker.
3:28 pm
>> i'm opposed to this project reefrp was undergoing flawed very flawed as you heard the two meetings held before this omittancely the people were if opposition they were opposed to this it is shocking i shouldn't be surprising sprield but am the entire impact of the community the western edition the life the church and the african-american church community was totally ignored and shocking i need to do something about that (clapping.) i'm wondering because i have a feeling that since the first two meetings are fallen on deaf ears nevertheless if you going god and implement this the people that spoke around a month park
3:29 pm
it's stupid to have alamo parking what's the heck of a difference they can only park for two hours so permit it like people like me can park there if i have to get a permit that was really, really dumb time and certainly areas to 8:00 p.m. makes no sense 8:00 p.m. one person that talked about i ghetto home from work i want to be there 8:00 p.m. that's stupid stupid stupid really, really dumb as the other person that talked when he gets home at 2 in the morning hell at 11:00 p.m. i can't get parking but listen to the people please i implore you
