ever the legislation comes out and says we have to do we'll do one of the things in september we've been working on a variety of issues trying to comment to this we building we can commit to it based on the construction part of the overall design is for the workforce level we think we can do and commit but the problem coming up with a legal issue we meet point city attorney's office over several months what simplified the adaptation of the commissioner avalos legislation because now we have an all that makes it clear we're willing to commit and so if the commissioner avalos legislation if pass you'll still do whatever

the legislation is saying. >> we'll workout other systems. >> but you'll do someone else but didn't know the numbers i don't know what supervisor avalos. >> fords has been working with the department to try to establish a level of affordability through some mechanism we've been in regular communication with the mayor's office of housing and economic development how that applies and how we volunteer to apply it we've offered several times to do this as a side agreement or letter agreement where we've actually been asked to continue to work on it ever the supervisor avalos legislation didn't pass. >> regardless of supervisor avalos comes out to be you'll

create affordable housing by working with the city as part of the approval. >> we can't actually ask that you know but i'm understanding what is going on that makes it clear. >> it may need additional approval. >> susan knowles deputy city attorney in the supervisor avalos legislation the project is subject to those requirement in the supervisor avalos legislation didn't pass at this time the property will be subject. >> sir. >> that will not preinclude the city and project manager from norwalk from a development agreement. >> so i understand what is in there it make perfect sense those people that asked for a continuance it will happen or

not you're getting something that is even better of it losses urge getting affordability. >> all right. >> excuse me. sir no outbursts your opportunity to speak has taken place if you want, you can be escorted out by the police officer. >> the other thing we've heard a lot of complaints about the people that live in there make 90 to hundred thousand dollars we don't know what they're going to be making of mixed income in a neighborhood is a good thing i've heard about crime and break-ins and having people there that you know might will be your allies in trying to stop this kind of activity from going on in the tenderloin having it

is a good thing we want neighborhood in san francisco with different no objection levels i like the project a lot the design is very good it is you know a lot of regardless of how much people have to pay to rent there it is a lot cheaper if they were not using the innovation to lower the cost of construction it is low higher because when we have been two years into the project there's been two years of progress i'm going that means everybody didn't get everything they said including the financial considerations but smell there is plenty of work downey done on that and to the ones that want to see everything sits vacant and hopefully, the

rent will drop land banking is not what i want there is no vacant lots so i think i've with got a pretty good idea of the lots i'll see what my fellow commissioners have to say i'm supportive as much separation but i understand the issue of not pushing one area too far to cut off the other outdoor area other than the side of the building but i'm supportive and i'll see what my fellow commissioners have to say commissioner wu. >> thank you so i'm supportive of this commitment to use union labor and appreciate that's happened i want to see that the community concerns are addressed also my understanding a lot of the proposals came up in the last twenty-four hours at this time not enough time for the community members to educates

them and see they meet the spirit of what the discussions were from the discussions were happened earlier we would be in a different position on the leavenworth building it looks pro tem i want there to be an opportunity to meet with t n b d and tenant not just the building owners on the turk building i want to see the set back widened we've getting gotten to handout from the ttrp detailing all things are squeezed tight and tighter those bathrooms window if they're blocked that's a problem looks like there maybe flexibility in the way the common room is designed to allow into the bathroom important 371 we heard the building owner i

want to have decisions or discusses with entertainment not just the work of building owners i will be in support of a continuance. >> i agree with what the commissioners said i think we've shouldn't be where we are today, if you came out and said how to make the inclusionary ordinance apply and i think there was a public comment that said we want to use the same creativity to the design and the inclusionary ordinance we wouldn't necessarily be where we are today on the whole the buildings well-designed and you still need issues with the adjacent neighbors but they're getting there and close you would like having the inclusionary we brought it o up the original sro

kind of convoluted thing that came up so it has come a long ways we need time to tackle the issue and the senior center the bathroom windows and the column that we are blocked so it is blocked up so i think this is kind of more effort we can get there this is a good project i hope we would have gotten through sooner i don't mind waiting for the supervisor avalos ordinance to be adapted you figure out how to get the inclusions inclusionarys as part of a loophole they're not included we've talked about how to figure out inclusionary on this project i think we're there thanks. >> commissioner richards. >> i think this is or an interesting project there are a lot of things i like 50 percent

of operating costs and 50 percent less construction and 20 percent less operating costs is phenomenal that is good in construction the question with those extraordinary numbers and savings have you considered the 20 percent affordable savings you kind of banked on this project. >> it's not 20 it's 12 percent. >> 12 percent i'm not trying to get into negotiation. >> i did a site visit i'm concerned about the set back 351 and the curry senior center and the tenderloin i think i looked at the paper here that the attorney for the hotel handed

out going on e going into one the units the person that went in with me is not here it was small it is like living in a black box i want the folks in the oasis hotel to look at this and say we like it i'm supportive of the project i think there are a lot of benefits especially as it pertains to sustainability and quality design i appreciate the affordable offer are yourself you've made and make it sensitive i'll support a continuance as well. >> commissioner moore. >> for starts architecturally interesting idea and if t is system like that works an alternative i'd be interested in

hearing the construction that set aside the promises in the closing hours of the project don't carry for in imposition or commission to approve a project i see the intent of supporting the project particular mr. carter you have to summit drawings that show the final design and what i'm interested in is not dpvd 7 and a half or 8 feet or whatever coming to b that level of understanding with the neighbors by which our building inspection reflects that compromises in the rush of the things you're doing alledgedly a broad spectrum of issues that is interesting if you have not crossed that bridge that project is not ready for prime time this

is primarily our responsibility we're not on earth beautiful congest we appreciate good architecture but not the end not to approve a project we need to see the balance how our strulgd those concerns and i will support the turns and hope you'll come with a set of drawings which reflects everybody who's come to the table and agree how to move forward. >> commissioner johnson. >> thank you very much. >> i will be making a motion to continue after i ask a few questions a couple of things i like the project love the sustainable design it's not for me, i think again, i agree with the person that made a public

comment about the baby that's not respect but this is a good project i've supportive of continuance mostly because it is conditional use authorization and large project authorization i don't building in designing project on the commission that is not in addition to needing the community input i'm not agree so we have it in our packet to understand the impacts not only on the neighbors but getting open space or other sort of things that fall out of changing the dimensions of the building we don't get that 5 minutes before a hearing in a packet one other quick thing on the inclusionary requirement i fully

support of the amendment altered to the package by the staff to say we could approve the project and not get any permits pend the psa of the legislation if we bring that back i want to see it generalized if someone has to oppose more legislation it still applies and not creating more loopholes and even if we don't i think we should add in language of the potential for the agreement those don't have to be for today because we'll have a continuance probably with that said i'd like to make a motion to continue and senior jonas. >> july 9th. >> second.

>> can we look at july 9th. >> that's not much time over july 4th i don't want comments people railroad gone the fourth of july. >> july 9th is available. >> project sponsor you have a reaction. >> yes. while there are issues that can work on they can be worked on quickly we're dealing with technical issues and t n d c and members of the oasis i'll prefer to come back in two weeks and try to do that if we haven't reached an agreement maybe continue it but we believe we can get this done as respond about earlier today the merging with t n d c are tomorrow

morning and the other neighbors there's been a lot of delay as soon as. >> commissioner johnson. >> i'll make to motion to continue to july 9th that's two weeks out. >> commissioner moore. >> i want to ask the department independent of what we're deciding we started working on issues of the group housing and sro's i think we're falling in a large area not knowing what the issues are that is a comment that arises out of this discussion. >> commissioner antonini i. >> i want to ask whether or not to support the continuance how busy is our calendar. >> june 18th - impetus a medium

sized calendar. >> what's the week after that. >> none of the hearings in the near future are overly full. >> we could do the 25th. >> that's my birthday i would appreciate not to be here. >> there's a motion. >> i realize there's a motion i wanted to make other comments i think that the gentleman put it correctly those are technical issues the project is a good project i support we should confine our comments in the future to the set back i think everything else is settled within that a provision for onsite affordable the more we

make that as simple as possible from the next hearing those are the two issues with validity so if we can get those things done i'm supportive and look at those bathroom windows they brought that up too. >> commissioner richards. >> one quick i guess technical question of 70 staff people brought up the oven to the point that commissioner moore mentions what is group housing what's our understanding of this project and even though outcome where is it at and so as proposed it is a group housing project it does have group housing with a limited cooking facility and interpretation westbound the planning code that allows group housing homes to have a limited cooking facility. >> and the standard conditions of the approve. >> only what you're looking at

0 the group housing has slightly more relaxed standards not to the rear yard and exposure requirement and the reductions in the open space from the traditional dwelling units. >> commissioner wu. >> i also work to commend the work of kate connor i believe that katz new position is focused on the project and the developer is undeserving of kate (laughter). >> commissioner moore. >> i wanted to clarify i'm not sure if i understand the commissioner tour-sarkissian registration any question that arises in continuing this project is allowed to be asked it might limit our own search to the issues individually,

however, calendaring this project didn't mean that relevant questions can't be brought up. >> commissioner antonini. >> no to respond i was speaking in terms of the project sponsor and those with whom they're talking about the technical issue in my mind those are the issues anyone can say anything to anyone of course. >> okay. so i think your close you've got all the pieces how they come together but your close it is a cutting-edge technology and the city is excited we want this to be a cutting-edge community your close okay. >> there is a motion and a second to continue it july 9th commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner richards
