honey. >> in the process their needs to be more details about identifying the dogs as you say and either providing strengthening methods to them or clustering them i mean it's a different existing building as see when you add a unit it is a different. >> right and i think we - i think there is a really philosophical thing that's
4:31 am
happened engineers are used to the idea you fix it or not so this is the great thing about the fema document oh, we only want to fix it a little bit that took a long time to get through this now we want you to fix it a little bit better on some but i think we can have this discussion. >> they're asking personnel we want them to do it that's an additional factor not only in the ab are the soft story. >> yeah. the engineers he never were you asked ho what if the building had more people than yesterday would you be recommended only working on the ground floor sew that is the
4:32 am
ground floor and quite frankly under the assumption there were no residential only commercial. >> right. >> a different scenario. >> i asked my engineers open the subcommittee okay. what's the next step hey you're getting something what do we want they said we're not sure what more to ask for without a full upgrade i want to ask them the same question would you fix the diagram at the ground floor we're not asking them to fix certain diaphragms and maybe get a big pay back that adds the value to a new building. >> and i think that pat brought up a good idea when you submit
4:33 am
the collaborations i think with our frames we have a crappy building maybe we'll say you're out of this unit. >> exactly just to appoint to the commission in charter b there's been a section in the languages that says no other anglo cellar work to comply po to 34 b is the intentional to help to improve the workflow to the dbi can continue to issue those with the short timelines the things that worries anywhere is good or bad retrofits what remain worried about expanding the timeframe
4:34 am
under a tight timeline this will add the opportunity to come up with some kind of methodology currently there is not a simple mechanism this is one of the go believes that has been said this morning? a hardline to determine one of the other things this has been said it is hard to point out this is a hard soft story retrofit the people that be doing larger retrofits are not granted a larger housing i think that a thoughtful look at adding retrofits is a policy to add units there is a bigger universe to see this effort to add the unit but it is the right trajectory but need to be done quickly without sdaenl the ab
4:35 am
34. >> so you're suggesting to do it as a separate action. >> correct. >> i mean there seems like it is a tremendous amount of effort obviously the cac will weigh in and obviously with w work with the department to come up with the right plan and maybe some sort of a particularly process so the planning department does it and to - >> commissioners there's a policy today that the soft story program a kept separated from the additional unit. >> okay. >> appreciate our patience is this an action item. >> all right. i move we approve the first one item 10. >> 10. >> and then table item 11 any
4:36 am
more discussion. >> no table 11 is they want us to have it into effectful in this process. >> don't do anything table it we have discussion with cac and others are going to have it if we table it it stays. >> okay a good point city attorney is that resonate. >> you could at the other end of the table it and when it comes a new item or continue to the to the call of the chair it copes it alive as an agenda item before the commission and take it up. >> continue to the call of the chair. >> okay. perfect. >> second those motions. >> so there's a motion to
4:37 am
approve item number ten ab 004 and we're tennessee item abnexa to to the call of the chair isn't that correct. >> commissioner president mccarthy commissioner vice president mar sdmshg commissioner walker okay. that motion passes i need to do a bit of housekeeping are we hearing item 13. >> so then let me state. >> so moved. >> any public comment on continuing the items those items are continued. >> we're on item number 13
4:38 am
commissioners questions or comments and staff at this time the commissioners may make acquires to staff recording or read into the record the precipitates to the commission. >> this is more particular for i guess the director to reporting on the novs i thought it might be helpful important future agenda items. >> taking oakland army base for future agendas. >> we lost a quorum. >> we don't need a quorum we're not voting. >> so you can't continue to meet as the bic any further to discuss items so you can either. >> i could let the director know what i want i'll work with the chair next month to month. >> i do want to say something
4:39 am
under d. >> i have to insist you came back to the chair. >> if i'm going to finish this thought on the code enforcement report rather than just the number of inspections that is just fine it is the way it is but good to separate out how many of the novs which time period they fall into for example, are those novs been sitting here two or three years the other thing i thought it would be good to start tabulating when is the nov revolved from issuance to abatement or we just you know it just is over so this kind of because i think
4:40 am
we've been getting very good reports on but we don't get the end results. >> commissioner walker i believe. >> yeah. i just want to there's been a lot of public attention to our commission and the allegations of corruption from the city attorney's office as previous sitting officials as a commissioner, i take allegations of corruption me seriously wouldn't comment on specifics until those issues are fully vested the public needs to know we take it seriously and are coordinating fully. >> thank you anything foster. >> i want to second

4:55 am
runs deep in our family and we wouldn't have the life now without a community college education. but our story isn't unique. there are over 80 thousand students every day at city college that dependent on the education and access to public education to improve their life and a better future. i take this appointment very seriously and personal. these student desirfb to have the same fime of fluent a better life that i did not so many years ago. i know what it is like to navigate the complex and often times over weming brurocracy of community college system. insureing access to high quality serveess and counseling is one of my priorities on the bord. for the past 80 years city college played a important role for many famentlies that tried to have a better life. like the mayor said, nothing grows or
4:56 am
economy better than public education. community colleges are the lanch path for greater opportunities and play critical roles for groups and students like myself that had been excluded from college education. as a openingly gay man of color i'm especiallyly sense toative to the path way communeky college provides for lez goodian and gay community who can still face gair ba yirier tooz get fl to college. relationships and partnership ozf communitys is a passion. for my first job at the mayors office [inaudible] to my job with devon [inaudible] at the board of supervisors or phil [inaudible] recreation and park department and currently with president burr ocobama and his administration making government more open and accessible for all has always been the true driving force in
4:57 am
my life. city college needs all our help to be successful. my background in public manlagement and guv nrns as well as [inaudible] non profits and neighborhood will be a great tool for myself that i hope to bring to city college to bring it forward. the current accredidation challenge is a wake up call for show how important city college is to the sates higher education and work force opportunities. i'm so thrilled that even burr ocobama the president made community college a sener piece of his agenda. think of all the opportunities this will provide for making the first 2 years of community college free for everyone.
