america candle stick point a hunters point are the actually redevelopment and appendixes and their commission as this assessor agency to the redevelopment agency residences the approval for aspects of projects therefore the project approvals happen with ocii and not necessarily are planning planning has a role when the documents that guides the development last week the overall plans or the design for development documents those amendments those documents do need your approval as well as noted in the memo as part of packet the initially phase of construction at candle stick point are part of review and looking at amendment to the dine for development or d-4-d approvals for the amendments for a person the dordz on the

advanced calendar and this provides a board overall and more specific about candle stick and the dordz both 0 drew and willing will i from ocii staff and me to answer any questions but again, i'm let lennar from lennar provide the bulk of the presentation thank you very much. >> thank you very much matt commissioner president fong and commissioners i'm terry i'm the director of planning for lennar your honor, i'm here 0 for two reasons to provide a project overview we were approved approved in 2010 not back to the planning commission but to give you an update of the progress and as said want to talk about you can to but about the design

for development document the first one to note we feel quite fortunate to be a part of major redevelopment project in southeast san francisco one of the last major landholding in the city we have honored to be working with you on this site the shipyard is really commodity of two projects that phase one project a d-4-d was provided in the 0 and approved in 2005 and then major phase two when which which is the sub of today's meeting we have a motion and a second we'll be talking about all of the development options if phase two and more specifically about the design for development amendments you know as i mentioned the

phase one is the first part of development under construction and actually we're quite pleased to be able to report the first one hundred horns that will be moving in before the end of the year and phase two is comprised of candle stick point and the shipyard currently under remediation it includes 10 thousand 5 hundred homes and r and d over and over 25 acres of parkland and upped wards of regional and local surveying retail the affordable housing component of our project includes affordable housing for those who have average medium income from zero percent to one and 60

percent you should know our agreement per dine is 32 percent of our all of our overall project is affordable housing i do want to note in the first major phase of development on candle stick point it is actually going to be 45 percent of all housing will be within the rake of affordability and that includes the two-hundred hundred and 56 at alice griffith and agency homes in the inclusionary housing. >> local hire we're working diligently to insure that we work towards your 50 percent local hire goals currently at 42 percent and continue to strive to do even more. >> now candle stick point major

phase one let's focus on, on this element of the project at candle stick point there are over 2 thousand homes as part of this project 6 hundred and 45 thousand square feet of regional retail about one and 83 square feet of local serving retail and a number of communities benefits basz as much as the international marketplace and in addition, we have proposed a hotel 200 and 20 rooms for a hotel and the fillmore arts center. >> the transportation network is going to include a very robust extension of both existing transit provided by mta as well as brand new transit features for example, we have a bus rapid transit that will be

connecting the project to locations as much as the caltrans and balboa park and have express shuttle from downtown to candle stick point as well as hunters point shipyard and back again we looking a water taxi we're looking at all kinds of opportunities and which to provide transit service to the new residents as well as benefit the existing neighborhood even though existing residents that are there currently. >> i think matt mentioned the very first project as part of our first phase on candle stick point is a sfoep called alice griffith and that is currently under construction right now it was approved in 2014 and we anticipate that the first residents from alice griffith

will be moving ♪ one year in fall of 2016 and the next phases of development are called 2, 3, 4 there this includes the major reality we're gaemgdz in a joint venture with the partners you may be familiar they've done work along the creek the third street and santa monica at the brink a know how expertise to the project to create it outlet to san francisco on both sides of street projects regional of the regional retail is neighborhood serve retail and we are going to do include housing above the neighborhoods serve retail i nodded earlier,

too, we proposed to include a hotel and then residents above the regional serving and tower in addition. >> the retail center itself is really going to provide a wide range of retail options and pricing points so this is going to be something that everyone in the community can, in fact, take an opportunity to taking take advantage of we are working hard to insure there is very good connections to the existing neighborhoods that is a point of view from 9th street it expends to candle stick point desperately e south but you get a really strong urban feel and that's what we want to create president an

extension of existing city of san francisco and therefore you have the kinds of uses you expect to find in any true urban environment another connection we have a rather graceful i think sale that will be connecting boyfriend if james down area in the european bayview to the regional retail center it provides a connection for those who who are coming from the hotel doing shopping and residents that had been thinking living living in the residential tower proposed. >> and as i noticed england son we want a authentic san francisco kind of environment we'll have local neighborhood

retail along england son with residents above we will be seeking out some businesses from the bayview to locate and consider second locations in this neighborhood and so we expect it to be truly representative of not only san francisco itself but more drinkly the boyfriend now i'll address the design for development refinement coming forward to you on december 3rd for approval and i'd like to run through some of those right now the first is refinements needing to be made the references to the stadium 49ers have left he remove outline references to the project and so this is one of the simple cleans up we're doing

and in addition including some update to block dimensions as well as street dimensions we'll recall from january to june in 2014 we had an interdepartmental long discussion about street width and those that both serve the emergency vehicles assess and in addition toe retain neighborhood character with narrow streets wanted to do that so in the course of those negotiations with the fire department the department of public works, the planning department as well as mta we came to some conclusions about those 3 should look like and those adjustments need to be included in the design for development we've duplicate updates to the signage hoping for a nuance approach to signage

so when we want to identify a building of this distinction character we're able to do that and at the same time, we're wanting to is her that this is the kind of signage that is also much more acceptable and consistent with what is san francisco. >> boundary i'll talk about that if a minute we've increased some block dense and the boundary c p four are alternated according and have proposed a relocation of the tower that is currently at c p center and the last thing we want to propose some height increases for the mixed use along ervin son currently the heeding is at 65 feet and we'll be proposing to feet

so along this and this is true for englaingerson where we have retail board to ceiling we very much want to increase that to 20 feet many retailers and especially restaurant turns need a higher ceiling to floor height so we've asking that it from 1 to 20 feet the other reason we're looking to increase the height along ervin son we want to provide architecture in terms of rather than a flat horizon of buildings along the street marching along at 65 feet want

to provide some interesting egg articulation on this street where you have some of the buildings maybe at 80 feet others at 65 feet each of them b.c. being uniquely different thus give to the appearance this is a neighborhood that viflz over time. >> this exhibit shows you what the difference in 65 to feet how, how that indicates dash lines up another eight feet this is what that represents simply an increase in height right at corner of carney and ingerson a new center about a center we want it to be an

opportunity to not only show films in the traditionally way but to also serve as a determination place a place you can have film festivals and speaker series where you can hold special events for that reason we're looking to distinct this building and create a greater stature so is it so identified as being approved in 2010 for 85 feet we want to ask you to allow that up to as high as one hundred and 20 feet. >> the proposed towers i mentioned that we had proposed to increase some of the block depths those blocks along

kearney those were designed to be quite narrow we anticipated behind them there is an additional type of service for neighborhoods serving retail since then taken a look at the design for those blocks and thought that we would like to go integrate a greater mixed use in the housing and in order to do that we had to increase the depth and in fact, by doing so in those blocks it makes them in size to the immediate blocks behind them because we have two towers that were located in those blocks areas the location needed to shift along with the boundary so those two of the tower locations are proposed to shift along with the boundary approximately, one feet there is

one other tower relocation were proposing in the graphic there is identified tower zone right in the center of the retail project and what we're doing is we're proposing to move that tower away from the center and off to the edge of the retail project the reason for doing that is two-fold one is that as we work on this project we develop a dine for parking garage that puts a primer amount of parking underneath the retail center so we end up having a park along the backside but built into the old stadium in addition, we have parking underneath the retail center and pro relocating a tower with the parking garage was proving to say problematic for us so and the other thing we

need to consider the tower is part of project we'll probably engage another developer to build so if a timing prospective we needed to separate it from the center of the project too we're going to be undertaking the project and within the next year so therefore we needed to separate the tower both for structural reasons and timing reasons and it so you would i'm about out of times quickly show you the differences in viciously from 2010 tower shift in 2015 this is what you'll see. >> and here's another point of view this was taken specifically from stat parks this shows the tower as it was located in the

center of this what it looks like in 2010 and then as we move it to the outer edge of the retail center and in addition to moving to the outer edge at the back it is at a higher elevation too. >> thank you. >> and thank you. >> very, very much. >> the commission - >> please. we'll take public comment and then. >> of course thank you. >> okay open up for public comment reverend walker and linda. >> hello commissioners tests very hard to sit here and not get extremely excited when

my name is called (laughter). >> several times and really wanted to say in the documents about the 2011 when the mayor was mayor my name is i amusing newsom i spent about the last 15 or 20 years in relationship 0 this project. >> and the pastor at 950 in all around me this development the 5 hundred and 4 units of housing that alice griffith and alice griffith is going my next door neighbor and i walked the park 4 days a week and a lot of i walk

will i her can't keep up with me i watched the demolition of the park now the growth and all that that one other point about the employment i'm in contact are the person in charge the office of economic workforce development in that area and the general contractor and i talked with him last week and he said from the alice griffith projects and bayview they have employed around 48 young men that had no direction i work with them and recommend people to him and definitely would encourage the approval that this design process so we can continue moving in the area of making

that a reality there and there's excitement is all over the place and one of the last points i shouldn't say last in talking about with sophie maxwell at this point and mayor amusing i said this project will be an economical development that impacts the poverty and all those things happening so that is happening it is reilly exciting thank you very much. >> thank you. >> good afternoon. commissions i'm lynda former planning commission here representing the bayview hunters point community and basically to tell you how excited we sat

through the presentations it was very nice to listen to the comments and you guys and ladies were entrusted look at the statistics for the shipyard this is your flagship project for the entire san francisco even in history you have 325 acres of parks and open space let me repeat 200 and 25 if you look at the development to the parks alone the majority of land is dedicated to open space when you coming here i think we want you to educate help us to educate the public this is your work you're not just out here for alone projects but offsetting the public space and the open space and parks that the city requires your different them that's what you're doing here let's look at i was on the

planning commission and we know there message has changed over the last 20 years so we what we have in the shipyards the entire west coast of san francisco we're diverting and take advantage the opportunities moving to the shipyard to the tower and the increase in the bulk and height is basically to accumulate things from downtown transportation why would you go to downtown now, when you're going to be having a whole retail of one something stores in the candle stick point to say should basically iowa we are doing here not only is this project revisiting the economy of san francisco but you look at the job statistics and the projects in san francisco can't match that and the commissioner antonini talked about and said i

will approve this project if you donna could do that i could go on and on this project is not only for phil it is exceeding it's obligations and it's a flagship project we want to talk about and help the young people inform to go and buy homes because your building that we'll be back again, thank you all for your time. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> this was miss managed for empowers. >> f and if you build it i would like you to put something in your clause it is scombabl of managing the people didn't have light or heat or community that was split up by the leaders and

i would like to see this done properly for the african-american community predominantly was if alice griffith the others you have good ideas i'm going to support it but i just want to keep talking about this words of affordable housing what is affordable housing? >> can the people in the bayview have incomes from one hundred to one hundred $50 and places left for people that can't afford affordable housing thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, commissioners and it is always good to see commissioner johnson who used to be a form member of the advisory committee from the shipyards we love it when our young people move on to on to do the things

i'm dr. honeycutt and presents with me earlier was ali nixon and the thoughts of advisory committee to all of you, we want you to continue to support the very fine work that lennar did in the past and doing now we want you to know we're in support of information they shared with you and by way of it you don't understand about our advisory committee process i know you do you'll know that all of this information is shared with us through our seems to me and adjoin meeting over at the community room with the southeast facility commission and you know we are not a lame duck citizens advisory committee we ask questions about things including the design the building okay. we too don't want to see something built in

the shipyard an area that los angeles wished for over 20 years and by way of i want to digress some of the members on the shipyard have been there for 20 years we stay on it we have been pleased that when we shared our input with lennar and shared our suggestions they have headed our advise and come back with recommendations and made modifications and changes and i want you to know we feel that lennar has done much more than any develops in federal, state, and local or the desire state what you look at what the they've done for the community the community built the programs and the inbart and the home

buyer programs just the tip of the iceberg and in addition the big community benefit funds that appear in the form of the ic and the opportunities for the community to really make a difference for those residents who are still there and those individuals who are yet to come so in terms of of the c p project i know i'm running out of time what is not to like about that project a retail center and theatre and professionalism art center and have towers and you've got a company committed to affordable housing okay so, please folks support what they're doing thank you for your time. >> thank you. >> is there any additional public comment? >> public comment is closed. >> commissioner antonini. >> this is a wonderful project

not only combining all the things that are mentioned it was nice to hear a large art community and pdr presence out there this is a place that is very appropriate those uses should be housing and remain in san francisco so this is a very good is it take a little bit of pain from viewing the pictures without candle stick point there anymore this is sad i have not driven out there it is too sad i'm going out there now there are wonderful things replacing the park a couple of questions i have the first question for the lennar representative i asked to speak i'm not sure it was answered completely in prop g the voters the bond measure pass

by the voters in the late voters there is no stadium so how is that money going to be use or lennar going to fulfill it's obligations under prop g. >> we have obligations f anticipated a stadium but that does without the stadium to give you comfortable it accuracy an especially incident toward other program elements and the development itself and now is of no rehab the treasurers of building for better use. >> thank you just as we go

along to see something that links that and how it is being used because that was an important feature for the tuesday so much and the other thing i see you've got that plus rapid transit going longer than kearny and turn on to the walker and go across the bridge to yosemite and at the hunters point area and proceeded to anderson and returning back to third so you know i don't know if you've considered any kind of a light rail rather than rapid transit you've got the t line and it means people have to get off of that and transfer on to a bus and the other they know we've discussed it is still being thought about give me bart

running 11 along geneva and connect up with kearny that is for the t line is a dead-ends the transcripts is have to make a circle to get bark 80 back to other parts of system. >> i appreciate that commissioner antonini and in fact, a light rail readiness was an important design component of the project and mta has sort of pass in the past months they don't anticipate in the capital improvement plan to be able to provide light rail and any especially coming from the northern direction because you, your trying to get out to the shipyard and hunters point and

the t line can have a branch off of that down cargo or one of the streets that brings you into hunters point with or without south and go north again. >> so that is a suggestion. >> well, thank you thank you. >> the other thing i'm not clear one of the things we've passed not allowing any cars across the bridge on yosemite. >> the bridge across the yosemite only for at the time of trial and pedestrians and bicyclists. >> okay. well, i hope we have a good connection for drivers it get from north toe south and we'll see where that is and financing e finally an extension of considering new means west it is actually to the northeast but (laughter). >> thank you.

>> good for you. >> nice project. >> i appreciate that. >> thank you commissioner johnson. >> commissioner antonini is as picky as i am so that is fantastic you you know way too much do into going into in the happy year for me, i spent 10 empowers on the project that's a really long time and really great i won't dr. honeycutt did a great summary i think the one thing to sum it up without detail this project hit the nail on the head we have a struggle with housing and transit and significantly and height and density and community benefits those things come together and i want to commend both the city

and the developer for making things happen an emit tidbits i caught into the fact that you'll have the first people moving into alice griffith in the fall of 2016 was a huge accomplishment a few years ago people are ringing their hair and hands if we didn't have a certificate of occupancy the funding would go away and a problem getting alice griffith done it is great to see at&t a real testament to the city and lennar so, so aim excited to see the rest of that and really quickly on just a d-4-d i you know all the changes a lot of great the actual approval

available december 3rd so we'll be seeing then and i am well versus on the over of the i'm looking forward to the increase on heights on kerry way that is awesome in schematics a lot of work has done and how the things look for a proximate cause project of this scale so very, very supportive and happy to see commissioner richards and dr. honeycutt great to see everyone here and thanks for handing out.

>> commissioner moore. >> commissioner antonini and myself sat through many, many meetings that great plan and there were worked a lot it was redevelopment unfortunately, the deciphers with a well-thought-out plan so this this is a way of looking it today, the question i'll raise and hope to get more clarity by december meeting is the street issue came was discussed on more than two years ago and it raised quite a while concerns from this commission in order to be san francisco neighborhood the commission at large believed that the streets street width need to be keeping in traditional san francisco and the director strongly sponsored

that i hope the streets that were widen were the to fair at streets rather than those that create the character in the neighborhood i'd like to skip forward if you can see these are the rendering by which this project was concerned i spoke bloifrpt in germany was practicing the tower location was an extremely important issue bus the overall plan this was a strong point supported by lennar those two neighborhoods ultimately needs to be fit into the unfolding of san francisco which means that any tower in

any location particularly those at all towers relative to zero height site will have to blend with the long view particularly when our coming from the south we don't want to see one of the things we want to see the city above as you're looking further for the north actually, the northeast in the forefront i want to make sure the pushing of those two towers at the phase don't interfere with that idea i'd like to see a render similar to by which which project was approved all show you so we can truly see the bigger idea of heights on question and one of the suggestions the other thing i'd like to ask the film art center as building is something i'm not familiar with when i think about art centers i think

about gathering the larger footprint rather than something that only expresses itself as a tower we're talking about one 20 foot building i'd like to know that is not solely as a office building but indeed creates the types of activity on the ground floor by which a tower is justified the next thing i'll ask the tower is not a square but indeed gracious fully shapes the tower around the guidelines by which we video sfern in other parts of city not just a refrigerator as we used to call it a few decades ago those are suggestions i'll appreciate those concerns would be further

explained before an approval i'm not sure if i'm asking two of are you still work with the same group that oriented the master plan. >> that's a group out of canada and very much rise to the occasion a way of creating a forward-looking vision that was also augmented by local architects and local design that is an affirmative yes. >> just to clarify different architects doing different building but the master plan architect is yes. >> the other architecture architects with local architects we know quite a few of the them a massive plan was driven by a canada firmer they were responsible for the issues.

>> right. >> commissioner richards. >> a couple of firs this is a long this project it is certainly the biggest a person had a street named after him congratulations mr. walker. >> mr. richardson and dr. honeycutt your enough of thcomb commissioner johnson hit the nail on the head we created a whole community i'd like the money for the preservation and it is for the money up to one hundred thousand dollars i have a question if i take the t line over the the retail of the one 70 stores he opened my icy came in at atlanta

or battling are phoenix what kind of retail controls are there in this area would it there is a sense i know you'll have small businesses but any formula retail balance or a big mall. >> actually we're working hard to insure that is it didn't look like a big mall we've been talking about retail and the facades of building we want them to have the characteristic san francisco favor we've been looking at nice architecture here in san francisco and will be encouraging people to adopt some of the architecture and as i say it is it's going to be a very interesting mix of uses i think a very strong candidates

of uses. >> you've hit the nail on the head like it didn't tip over i think a good complimentary of retail it would be great and this will be a good example of what that looks like and commissioner moore's about the concern the towers we'll get it right let's get it right with great designs i'm excited. >> thank you. >> for the community. >> director ram. >> thanks i wanted to thank everyone and reminded the commissioners we did this as pointed out you have not seen the project and the action in december in the scheme of things modest changes for d-4-d on a action you're required to take so you'll have the information in advance we'll follow-up with some of the requests made by commissioner moore in terms of

the renderings and the massing on the film center if there is imagine the commission wanted to see we'll get that to you. >> thank you to the pardon and public for coming out today. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further we can move on to item 11 for case this is a conditional use authorization. >> good evening, commissioners with an with the planning department staff so the until the time you is a request for a conditional use

authorization to allow increased residential density on laguna street the subject is within the rto at the corner of oak and laguna the project sponsor proposed to convert 6 garages into two transmittals in the 9 unit residential building the rto doesn't limit the density instead of is limit by the buildings ability and open space pare the project sponsor does not propose an expansion of the building and a new roof deck for the required space has been approved by the planning department they've innovate received any public comment regarding the property project projecting and overall the proposed use 20th century is appropriate it meets the building permit and the nature of the rto zoning district and

consistent with the area plans that concludes my presentation. i'm available to answer any questions thank you. >> thank you project sponsor please. >> good evening. i'm serena the project architect just to echo what wayne said a simple sfraurd or straightforward we underlined filed in february months before the soft story legislation by and large it is a 9 unit building even e over the scents of the r t association district that permits a one to 6 hundred ratio and the current density is one to two 50 in the planning code we're permitted to

go to two hundred that allows us to 11 units as wayne said an rto district on the corner of oak street and laguna right next to market street, hayes valley and van ness corridor and our proposal to remove the 6 garages onto laguna with w on-street parking number one, the residents are renting the parking space and with an is rent-controlled unit by an objective they're moving out with the retrofit are you that's it look forward. >> opening it up for public comment any any public comment? >> not seeing any. >> commissioner antonini.

>> yeah. it sounds like a good project my question was already answers omni bus soft story work being done to make that save a moment frame and whatever else to bridge the gap where the garage spaces. >> correct new footings and frames under construction right now. >> very good i think this is fine i'm supportive move to approve. >> second. >> commissioner moore. >> just basically supporting it has an interesting forward-looking idea removing the density cap in areas that are transit rich and in the middle actively this is a great way of combining it with soft story retrofit and creating liveable units which is rooms including bedrooms is good the facade

modifications are actually appealing removing the cuts is even better so there we go. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further there's a motion that's been second to approve that with conditions commissioner antonini commissioner moore commissioner wu and commissioner president fong so moved, commissioners, that motion passes 4 to zero. >> commissioners that places us on items 12 ab at 1805 buchanan street you'll consider the conditional use authorization the zoning administrator will request for variance. >> good afternoon alexander planning department staff the item before you is request for a conditional use authorization for new construction workplace the chinatown special use in the
