4:30 am
talking about establishments so i think i mean one could say if you have one definition it is item 4 but the direction to commissioner tang to work to create a definition that parallels ass this as a house industry progression so that then once this definition is created then it minimize the need for conditional use. >> it is kind of what i'm hearing our saying. >> i think the grrth is very clear and as far as the cu we're saying that the c should not apply to a category of practitioners as supervisor tang or as the experts will define it shouldn't apply to everybody and
4:31 am
if the purpose is to limit illicit activities not do that to the detriment of the legitimate and professionals in the field is that's the - and right. right so i think we're trying to get at how we say that we want this group of health care professionals mansion age therapist to be defined as health care professionals like the other health care professionals that does not require conditional use and what those others are whether their dental technicians or occupational thooefts i don't know the clarification but get help from the group so that the supervisor has a rational for creating that class of health
4:32 am
care professionals that meet the various needs of people whether they be physical or warehousehatever, whatever therapy is required. >> have we boiled it down. >> the recommendation is the first recommendation is that your - excuse me. the - sorry i'm trying to that how to do that in terms of taking direct action to file none 141303 is you're recommending not approval for the reasons you've stipulated in terms of the reasons around conditional use.
4:33 am
>> yes. >> at the same time, we're talking about planning there is a need to for the planning department we're recommending the planning department create a means to grandfather. >> correct. >> correct. >> i second that. >> okay. so with that i will say that commissioner president dwight merely made the motion (laughter) and commissioner adams seconded roll call. >> commissioner adams commissioner dooley commissioner president dwight commissioner ortiz-cartagena commissioner l. riley commissioner tour-sarkissian commissioner white all right. so then you've unanimously approved that recommendation to be passed on
4:34 am
to supervisor tang and to the planning commission so i think that is it for those who are here for item 4 and 5. >> thank you for your input and time it was great input. >> all right. commissioners, i shall move on to item number - yes. >> deanna. >> deanna thank you very much and diego thank you very much appreciate it, it's yours. >> all right. so commissioners we are generally this meeting does have a hard stop at four but the next meeting is detailed so i'm going to just for item
4:35 am
number of update on the development and preemption of the legacy program we're not going to get into a detailed discussion i'm highlighting the changes that have been made and passed out of the board of supervisors and then at our april 13th meeting we'll get into the detailed discussions of work on the program and establishing the registry program under item 6 i've already informed you that supervisor campos had taken out of the legislation the rebate incentives and that discussion is take place in terms of looking at what we can do to have more robust financial incentive i think this is going to take awhile to look at all the
4:36 am
various nuance and things available we'll start that because those will be recommendations the commission needs to make and it's final list for the program so that will be coming before you but a significant change that happened if you'll turn to page 2 so page 2 item b start on line 3 purpose of this section for 2a 242 legacy business needs a business that has been nominated by the board of supervisors or the mayor and the small business commission after a noticed hearing determines the following criteria so what's been struck are suggestions of specific
4:37 am
industry so this now i think will require if the commission to develop some stronger administration guidelines for the departmentalized to work with it requires that i meet with the board of supervisors to get an understanding as to what their determination you know what their idea of a legacy business is and in addition to the mayor and for you as well so but the other items that have remained the business operate in san francisco for thirty years without a break exposing 2 years and the business is operated and that business is laurtd in san
4:38 am
francisco the business has contributed to neighborhood history or neighborhoods or community the business is committed to cvs the features that define the business and that there's a fee involved and the other item initially the legislation has a june 30th date in which the commission was to develop a legacy business program and registry application criteria this is now been extended to september 30th. >> yeah. >> so because of time we will get into the timeline at the next meeting and i also want to inform you that i've been in discussion with mike buehler from sf
4:39 am
heritage the hell man family fund i believe we've jointly piloted through sf heritage but that is a joint partnership with sf heritage office of small business and the family fund to apply for a grant to help do some of the research analysis programming defining to help us with that so we'll see if we get it and it will you know ♪ doing so moot our timeline oh and lastly i should say i'm so sorry i did talk to the historic i made a presentation to the historic preservation commission and the historic preservation commission has a committee that is now taking a look at another cultural legacy so this does have a specific overlap the legacy businesses
4:40 am
with cultural legacy many of the cultural districts are cultural districts because of businesses there so there is much interest on their part and also being engaged with this process and want to have continual updates and provide feedback and if relevant at any time to do joint commission meetings as well >> thanks. >> all right. now, what do we do >> we'll move on. >> any public comment? >> okay welcome. >> hello, i'm shelly i'm staff with the planning department and staff to the historic preservation commission and i sit here today to just let you
4:41 am
think that the cultural heritage assets committee is a new commission they started meeting in january of this year specifically to deal with the issue of cultural heritage and how do we protect it and support it our traditionally landmarking designation are not board enough to support the uses ego businesses and so we're exploring ways the city can develop new programs to do that so their obviously really existed about the legacy heritage i'm sorry i'm going to mix terms so they're excited about the legacy business program and would like to play a part in developing that cree that this commission will use to dominate businesses to the register and
4:42 am
hope bmw's for the next couple of months the committee is holding hearing inviting speakers from city agencies and communities would have an interest in the cultural heritage to share ideas and to lower than better what the landscape needs are for the particular areas so i wanted to off our support if there's anything we can do in terms of research or our past experienced with the japantown or the cultural heshlg and economic strategy we could on two years ago or our work with the investment neighborhoods program we will be happy to share experience. >> are driver's license any other cities that have done that. >> no, that's the scary part we
4:43 am
don't have precedent to look to internationally there's been recognize of intangible heritage assets for quite a while the legislation passed about 10 years ago or more but at the national and state level we don't have programs to look for that's one of the things we strurlgd with in the japantown experience to target cultural businesses institutions nonprofits in trying to find a way to support them we had to start basically at the beginning what are the criteria to define them so we came up with a method dissolution to help the community to find what we meant by cultural heritage. >> okay thanks more later. >> okay any further public comment seeing none, next item, please. >> item no. 7 is the
4:44 am
director's report and i will be belief i just want to let you know we're completed one hover and for jane old position and her name is carl oil she'll be starting next monday. >> congratulations. >> also, we were our office was broechd by the sheriff's department captain extensively pulling son and chief they have a lot of programs really dealing with recidivism for men and not really many for women so they have a women's resource center for women that are coming out of jail to be able to connect into services and so they want to
4:45 am
create a coffee cart as a social entrepreneur program to train women to be bar status so i met with them to kind of talk them through what this may be from a business operational side and so this is kind of an exciting thing for us to be partnering with the sheriff's office to help to get a program that will support those women reentering and getting jobs in the private sector. >> workplace i'll leave my director's report there. >> great. >> so we'll move on to president report. >> i have nothing to report next item. >> item 9 vice president

4:54 am
francisco and we're doing stay safe and we're going to talk about what shelter in place or safe enough to stay in your home means. we're here at the urban center on mission street in san francisco and joined by carla, the deputy director of spur and one of the persons who pushed this shelter in place and safe enough to stay concept and we want to talk about what it means and why it's important to san francisco. >> as you know the bay area as 63% chance of having a major earthquake and it's serious and
4:55 am
going to impact a lot of people and particularly people in san francisco because we live on a major fault so what does this mean for us? part of what it means is that potentially 25% of san francisco's building stock will be uninhibit tabl and people can't stay in their homes after an earthquake. they may have to go to shelters or leave entirely and we don't want that to happen. >> we want a building stock to encourage them to stay in the homes and encourage them to stay and not relocate to other locations and shelters. >> that's right so that means the housing needs to be safe enough to stay and we have been focused in trying to define what that means and you as a former building official knows better
4:56 am
than anybody the code says if an earthquake happens it won't kill you but doesn't necessarily say that can you stay in your home and we set out to define what that might mean and you know because you built this house we're in now and this shows what it's like to be in a place safe enough to stay. it's not going to be perfect. there maybe cracks in the walls and not have gas or electricity within a while but can you essentially camp out within your unit. what's it going to take to get the housing stock up to this standard? we spent time talking about this and one of the building types we talk about was soft story buildings and the ground floor is vulnerable because
4:57 am
there are openings for garages or windows and during the earthquake we saw in the marina they went right over and those are -- >> very vulnerable buildings. >> very and there are a lot of apartment buildings in san that that are like that. >> and time to. >> >> retrofit the buildings so people can stay in them after the earthquake. >> what do they need? do they need information? do they need incentives? mandates? >> that's a good question. i think it starts with information. people think that new buildings are earthquake proof and don't understand the performance the building will have so we want a transparent of letting people know is my building going to be safe in it after an earthquake? is my
4:58 am
building so dangers i should be afraid of being injured? so developing a ranking system for buildings would be very important and i think for some of the larger apartment buildings that are soft story we need a mandatory program to fix the buildings, not over night and not without financial help or incentive, but a phased program over time that is reasonable so we can fix those buildings, and for the smaller soft story buildings and especially in san francisco and the houses over garages we need information and incentives and coaxing the people along and each of the owners want their house to be safe enough. >> we want the system and not just mandate everybody. >> that's right. >> i hear about people talking about this concept of resiliency. as you're fixing
4:59 am
your knowledge you're adding to the city wide resiliency. >> >> what does that mean? >> that's a great question. what spur has done is look at that in terms of recovery and in new orleans with katrina and lost many of the people, hasn't recovered the building stock. it's not a good situation. i think we can agree and in san we want to rebuild well and quickly after a major disaster so we have defined what that means for our life lines. how do we need the gasolines to perform and water perform after an earthquake and the building stock as well, so we have the goal of 95% of our homes to be ready for shelter in place after a major earthquake, and that way people can stay within the city. we don't lose our work force. we don't lose the people that
5:00 am
make san francisco so special. we keep everybody here and that allow us to recover our economy, and everything because it's so interdependent. >> so that is a difficult goal but i think we can achieve it over the long time so thank you very much for hosting us and hosting this great exhibit, and thank you very much for joining - >> ladies and gentlemen, the chair has called the meeting to order can you please turn off electronic devices that will you please see rise for the pledge of allegiance and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under god, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all madam president
