e i live next to the kennedy's today i find them to be very courteous and respectful and quiet neighbors their dining room window faces my laundry room and their master my became and their deck my deck i never feel infringed upon they're very respectful and understand the tightness of spaces in san francisco and i had had think they do a nice job have never making me feel uncomfortable in my own home. >> thank you. any other public comment? >> valerie johnson they used to have 332 fulsome street that we had planned to

you know make a better place of and raised out first you know - (inaudible) i think we can it is a place of enjoyment to improve the lots in this area that the real planning department you know put into the you know another on the uses rooms probably the better yards and they respect you for parking areas

that we you know went down here and paid for that they say about the bathrooms and the things and that's not that's all i have to say thank you. >> thank you. we can take rebuttal starting with the appellant mr. howard do you have anything else to say i have 3 minutes. >> don't have much to say i really met john a few times we got along fine i don't have a problem with shooun on his district of columbia i'm concerned about maybe he's redeveloping the property will will upper market sell the property i don't know what is going to happen it is 8 feet from my bedroom window that is my opportunity to stop it you

know, i know personally shawn i've never met his wife i'm sure she's quite all right. too but i wanted to make that clear this is not anything personal only a deck a few feet from my bedroom window not a preexisting condition something we we have control over. >> mr. howard at this time if you want to reconsider a screen on that deck. >> i would consider a screen if it serves the function absolutely. >> the screen can only go back to the average of the rear yard property line beyond that that the variance okay. >> so i'm not sure. >> it is 80 percent of the

deck. >> okay. so i would not see that as a solution to to be honest simply simply because someone standing on the side of the screen looking straight in if it was a screen that blocked the view of somebody maybe 6 feet tall looking at our window perfect that's a solution great that works but screening 80 percent someone that wants to look into the bedroom window that's not a solution. >> can you offer up something mr. howard. >> sure. >> as mentioned we have quite a few of the windows 27 in our home we over look at our neighbors bathrooms and they look at us we're in an elevated position we've gone with a

roller shade during the daytime so from the interior to the exterior they can't see in but from me from the inside to the outside you can see out they can't see in i have a 13-year-old daughter that overlooks any neighbors i still want privacy we have an added treatment for a privacy so during the daytime we still get to enjoy our view and light with zero privacy issues at night when we turn our lights on in the interior we have a privacy button and it lowers the shade our master bedroom 7 of the homes can see our master bedroom so it is really nice having to be able to see the view in the daytime and option for privacy at night. >> that is, i guess that's

works for you if you could imagine in our bedroom our master bedroom we have a verify the best house that is why we're all here the best you can see you know so that's our verify at night time it is a spectacular view the only one from inside our house if he block that at night time you know yeah. >> if the lights are off on the inside you still see out at night is works in reverse. >> yeah. similar we looked one way glass solution if the lights are on smiled you can see you know - >> that's the problem. >> for some. >> i understand okay and but

you know from our prospective did anybody build anything looking at inside our house. >> just for conversation we built our extension both our neighbors filed a discretionary review i made the design notifications to suit both my neighbors my neighbors to my immediate north betsy carmichael his house his immediate concerns i'd like look at his home and now his deck looks at being so my whole house i'm quite aware of that. >> it didn't sound like. >> we still talk that's fine. >> it didn't sound like a great solution something that was probably avoidable. >> it is it is what it is like

i said, i said we live in an urban environment and have closed proximity to our neighbors it's all good. >> okay. thank you and any other questions. >> mr. alternating man. >> i want to point out a question about the windowsill height i manufactured that it is 6 feet from the sill to the window deck surface your question about the lattice and 80 percent of the screen the rear incline is at the wall of the back wall the bedroom to the door entire deck is in the rear setback but permitted less than 10 meeting feet in height anything above that requires a evaporates so it required a variance you can verify that

i want to point out wu we have an exist clearance for the property that does a pretty good job of screening the windows there is already privacy resulting in the conditions which are a huge consideration thank you. >> mr. sanchez. >> go ahead. >> one other thing i want to say is that when they're talking about the sightlines and 6 foot tall we have 10 feet back into this building so it is not like i'm standing and looking into the windowsill 10 feet back the sidelines are the sidelines other thing? my home not a developer not going to sell this

property or anything like that i want to make that point. >> thank you scott sanchez planning department just to commercialism the subject property is 36 rh2 within the sgruts that has a 45 rear yard requirement that didn't allow the methodology we'll have in the code it is a bit of a strieshth or strickerer yard requirement and commissioners even though matter is submittedstricter >> owe. not per squatted we the appellants argument the view

is directly into his bedroom there is a significant height differentiateal and not persuaded how much views there would be anyways based on the amount of trees and greenery i'm not prepared to support the appellant in his appeal. >> i'm in agreement. >> a little bit different than the last case i'm in agreement. >> i'll no - >> i'm going to move it uphold the permit and deny the appeal on the basis it is code compliant. >> thank you. >> there's a motion on the floor
