track record as a deputy district and dist rict attorney. commissioner work would city law enforcement to reduce violent crime. commissioner mu zekeo also helped implement the meaningful reforms to the police department including cit training adopting the vast majority of president obama policing and termination ofophorousers that violate duty as police officers. just like commissioner loftus, commissioner mazzucco demonstrated he has compougz and passion and reason to lead the commission through these important and trying times and ask you send [inaudible] positive recommendation. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> supervisors my name is sergeantiolaunda williams and

representing officers for justice. i stand before you because as a native san franciscan i didvent the privilege to go to a prope prok control school i have respect for tippy. i respect principles outstanding ethics and morals and values and most of all i respect his way of addressing a problem. when i brut a problem to his attention and thatbying i wasn't seeing much diversity in the academy classes and our complicated answers when asked why are there no black officers in the academy class. tippy took the time all most a hour and a half after a police commission meeting to discuss at great length that problem with me. i must tell you within 3 months we had

recruitment on board with the program but so did other police commissioners and to me that shows reform. that shows that he understand it. i'm a member the cit team and crt teams. tippy understand the importance of us bowing guardians in the police department and also understands prestigeeral justice. i thank him for advocating for speaking for serving as a catalyst for change for officers of color, women and lgbt. i urge you to reappoint tippy mazzucco to the position of a police commissioner. thank you. j >> thank you very much. next speaker, please. >> supervisors my name is fran cisco decosta, first and formost i

like to state categorically that when reappointing the police commissioner especially the police commissioners reneed to find another way. to be frank, when i see supervisors trying to adjudicate on the matter and i have imperical data that they themselves did want come up to a standard and i have data-it isn't only the ethics commission and i find it very hard for the supervisors to extend something to the police commission. having said that, i worked for the united states park police and i have been attending this commission meetings when they were first held at 850 bryant a long time

ago. normally at one time we used to have the whole command staff attend the san francisco police commission and don't have it anymore. maybe they sit at the back. today this police commission and our office of citizens complaints need to step up to address what is happening in san francisco. this isn't about being good or whatever, all of us are god. god. good. i may not know commissioner mazzucco but i know his sister so i have a connection. i have never been introduced to president loftus but watch her in action and she is a-good person. the supervisors have to have standard and my plea is that then you will always be able to help the san francisco police commission.

thank you very much. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> david elliott lewis. part the work with cit i am a coauthor the cit department general order regarding institutionalizing now the de-escalation and the process of cit. it is more than just training. imeg rr grateful for commissioner mazzuccos support of cit including in 2011 as president he shepherd the original resolution to start the cit program. wehad a cit program for all most 10 years run by the mental health board which i'm part of--george gas gone was chief of police heeneded the cit program which was unfortunate

and took wrongful shootings including a man in the wheelchair with a knife who was shot to doget to bring it back. commissioner mazzucco was instrumental in that. i hope he is reappointment and hope he will reconsider statements on tasers. when you can click a button rather than talk somebody down it is too easy to click a button i & hope he'll ree reevaluate tasers. i have respect for him and hope you will approve reappointment. thank you. >> thank you very much. next speaker, please. >> i support commissioner mazzucco. police cleef leader style, together nsds, people, relationship,

were palable. what strauck me is how they watched out for one another. they know who was there and wasn't there and who needed a little more outreach and couldn't have been more supportive. i had someone sing to me. they want today know quloo i was and willing to share thoughts and opinions with me and i was able to take those back to the council and that report is filed with dos. one of my major issueicize the accessible. supervisor tang and i discussed this in my original interview. the architecture of homes where we live are at least one flight up stairs. where mobility issues can make it difficult to get out and be engaged. seniors, adults with disabilities become trapped in their own home jz isolation is no friend of the population the council serves. as

have those same issues in the near future. serving on the advisory counsel allows me to do something about it. to witness daily work invocation is serve those in need and see when the dos employee of the month is recognized by management and peers. to see san francisco allocate money to take care of the most vulnerable and witness first hands the changes that can be made. it would be a honor to rebe appointed and continue to serve. >> thank you very much for your presentation. that was very thorough. do we have any questions or comments? seeing none mrs. lawrence is my district 4 appointee to this council and thrilled with your service so happy to see you continue in that role. i think we'll open up item 5 to public comment. seeing none, so

your presentation. >> thank you greetings some visors t. is a honor to be here with you. my ancestor came to the united states and planted in south dakota living in a barn until they could afford the funds to build their own home and get their own farm land. my grands mother is a survivor of the depression and my own childhood is shaped by my parents violent divorce at age 6 and father received a 300 file restraining order from our family due to his life long battle with alcoholism. i came to san francisco and bay area in the way many people who identify

transjndser. they don't all go to seminary but knowing the freedom that can #c34 from this area and destrrsty of culture and faith and life style that is practiced in this place was a large draw. as i came to school missed the poverty i lived with and wanted to utilize the healthy baggage i had gained loving family members who struggled with addiction issues and began june 2002 serving the homeless in polk and tender line and castro. i have learned from the saints and pastors who organized in the tenderloin and created a federal poverty district and the ways they were able to inspire gentally agitate and provide ways that average ordinary people can instill in the

homeless. i have so many years of experience and fanc aey certificates i thank my great est experience is someone who can listen. every year for a week i would sleep on the streets to figure out in my bones a bit of what it feels like to navigate the continuum of care in san francisco. i slept in shelters and held hands with people as they mourned and as faithful san franciscan without fancy caller yz know we can do a lot by cleaning the bathrooms so other people can feed and serve and work. i believe deeply that having someone on this committee who understands 30 percent the homeless population in san francisco

, lgbt, a number i'm [inaudible] the laws argued about in other parts of our country. having someone who understands the difficulty of wondering fuf you will get hit in the head with a perceive en if you feel safe in the places you receive the care. i feel very inspired to think about not only the emergency of homelessness but the potential emergency of fires and homes of ether earthquakes and effects of global warming. i am usually covered in paint and worried i'll track mud on carpet like this because when i learn how the system works will dig in and plant 500 plants for the city the week

before christmas >> thank you for doing that >> you joined me. because if we show through our doing and loving that things can get done it inspires people beyaunds the spaces they are in. i know the power of providing beauty in low income housing. i worked with the homeless onmunity gardening with support of mental helths service funds and know the power of letting people share their experiences and it is the only thing i have done for the homeless is to inspire homeless youth and work with them for two years and a intern in the project was appointed to the youth commission and was just eleblthed this week to be a grand marshal of the san francisco pride par aid, i think that is enough. my hope is that we

can draw attention and be someone who can communicate to people regardless whether they live on the lowest side walk or highest skyscraper about why we have to wait sometimes, why we have to follow building policy ies and push sometimes. i also want to bring attention to the dev stailting effects hof it changing of the formulation of federal funds for those living with hiv and aids which may result in millions of dollars in loss of funds. i hope my service will provide me opportunity to listen, to share wisdom and to empower others. >> thank you. at this time we'll call up all the applicant at once. who ever is still here--thank you for

being so patient. >> thank you supervisor tang, cohen and mar for hearing my request for reappointment to the citizens committee on community development. my name is mu quell pin and work with her arrow builders, we are the general contractors building the hospital down the street and saint lukes. my role is to work with local hiring contracting program. i was before you two years ago seeking appointment for committee spot on the citizens committee for community development and come i spoke with you then it was more about me. i wanted to learn about the processes of how policy was put together. how infrasfruckture the city agency and i

did. came in at a aunique period with mayors office of housing and community development and oewd putting together the 5 year consolidated plan. get brian shew rr director here and tip to the staff and the outreach they did to communities but one the joys on the committee was to also assist with outreach. there was 6 outreach events that brian staff organized and participated in 5. i wents in the community and get what the community needed. one of the most i think interesting and telling exercises that we had is giving each community $5. i wents in the community and get what the community needed. one of the most i think interesting and telling exercises that we had is giving each community member $25-100 in 25 $increment

and put it where they thought the money should ge. community involvement and being engaged with the community and development policy was a tremendous learning experience. i also sat in on 3 rounds of funding recommendations. one round where we had a cuts to different programs and saw the impact that had on our service providers. the organizations are strengths to san francisco that they do incredible work and on the committee i gained respect for them. i really see highlights developing the plan and 3 rounds and being a advocate are 3 areas i feel i contributed in the 2 years but it was a lirning experience and learned so much in that time. if you were to

reappoint me i have been thinking about what would i want to accomplish and one thing i would love to do is build bridges befwone the philanthropic community and cbo and government agencies. the general fund is able to back fill some of the work the grantees do, but those timeerize 23409 always good and i think we need to look to new partnerships to make our community based organizations whole i dhoo do work they do. the other is continue to support the burke at the economic corridor. o rks wd and invest in neighborhoods and anything that can be done to support small business with technical assistance and facade improvement because believe the commercial corridors the character of san francisco. supervisor cohen i

don't get locked in my neighborhood, i'm from north beach to bayview and sun set to mission bay and we live in a beautiful place and those corridors are where small businesses and people get a opportunity to work and feed their families. the other area that i would like to see is are commitsy to expand and become a space for dialogue. the scope of the citizens committee on community development is so broad. everything from homelessness to exnom nic development, work force development. i believe we can open up a space for discussion on the challenging issues in san francisco and hope to be able to make those spaces places to develop positive recommendations where we can develop solutions. gordon from chinese

community development center. experts in their field wonderful discussion and coming out of that we can all agree the small site acquisition program is a big success battling the affordable crisis and like to see how we can get that funded more. two quick points is i believe with the office of economic and workforce development putting out a request for proposals this year on the workforce side. i believe my experience in workforce development and understanding the development community can be very important to the committee and also my experience with

community based organizations. i think i have a very unique perspective on the service that the cbo's provide because i was a client and service provider and work for priferbt industry partnering with community based organization. i want to advocate for cbo like [inaudible] or chinese new comers, renaissance sents squr all the work they do. at this time i'll wrap it up. >> i don't have any questions but i want to comment on the comments that pastor [inaudible] said and mr. pin. i appreciate you sitting and listening through hours of testimonying and comments because your comments statements are so susinkt and to the

point. while you were talking i wrote a note saying what have you accomplished or want to accomplish and you said what do i want to accomplish. it was as if you were in my head and was on the body when you before us the first time and you have grown tremendously in a short period of time. i'm happy to support you today >> xae other applicants here today? it looks like just 2. i'll open up item 6. wade woods, irene sands, dennis mar zan andorian will is. >> good afternoon supervisors. i'm here on behalf of mu quell pin. i spent over 25 years as dweckter of development for [inaudible] committee and fillmore which is one of the first

into i would be telling the truth it is a most gratifying experience to work with this agency and appreciate the work that they do, to appreciate the wonderful staff we have. our director is kelly dermen, i think some know her. it has been a fascinating board to be on because the people who are on the board represent some of the people we serve and that they are caring and loving consideration for what we do is a example to us all. if i am lucky enough to be reappointing i will accept it gladly and say thank you very much. >> thank you. do we have questions or comments? thank you very much for your presentation. anyone else who is here please come on up. don't be shy this your moment. i thought we had

disabled, victims of violence and homelessness and it has really made me understand all the more reason why we all must be involved and i want to also say that we should get high school students involved. it is very very much a need. perhaps you would like to ask me some questions? >> i would just say in general are there things you look forward to working on if you are able to continue serving? any issues or things you would thrike continue working on? >> yes. one thing i mention ed not only with this board but also with the mayors disability counsel is the thereare thousands of people who need to be heard, seen, understood

and the value of their life even if they cant leave their homes or beds to be involved [inaudible] as well as to health issues. one thing i'm seeing and i have gone through has been that of patience who are abuseed and not fallowed through so they can find a answer and make sure it doesn't happen again. >> that's okay. thank you. >> sorry? >> i said that is okay. take your time. good to see you commissioner. >> nothing else to add i think we'll-is [inaudible] is that you? okay. come on up.

>> all most evening at this point. i have been involved with the [inaudible] for a year or more. my last appointment. things i learned, consumers, notice i said consumers not recipient or client have to be in charge of the care they get. in the public authority they are. elsewhere they are not. someone else is making a decision on what they need and when they should get it. whether it is the appropriate time for that person or not. i am a consumer. i am 76 now and i live in a hotel, the only one

for seniors for sro's. we had a number orphseniors placed in our place that now have different forms or levels of demensia which causes a number of problems for the people who live there and the people who give care. being on the governing body of the public authority we can direct ourselves in supporting this new need. as uheard and know, there is more elderly people now in the city than there used to be for sure and there will be more. i am concerned about the elderly homeless. they are taken from a navigation center and placed in a sro when they

are not stable. now i love the mayor to complete his commitment to develop a respirat care facility for those to be stabilized at before they are put with the population to function with people. we have a thriving program which is a extension of ourselves so we can connect the hospitals, get informed with social workers at the hospital and inform them of the care we give and how people can be helped this way. i'm going to extend that to more hospital in the next year. the last thing i would say is, during the march meeting they elected me president the

governing body and now i see new responsibilities for working out connections with the other entities in the city to get people more aware of what we do and how it could be done to better the lives for people who live independently. i thank you for reconsidering us and i would love to serve another 3 years. thank you. >> thank you very much for your presentation. alright. well i don't see any public comment but-sorry. yes, public comment on item 7, i won't want to miss you. >> good afternoon supervisors and derek. no one ever says good afternoon to you. i'm patrick [inaudible] from the ihss public authority, the board

the square footage delineated from pdr to which is not the core pdr but less intense that surrounds the area where the core pdr is and also realizing that before that was one m now, one that protects it and basically talk about the where the umu anticipated loss of pdrs will take place and how much square footage has been taken out of pdr and how much is anticipated and how much could possibly happen and is it still worst the limits we've assigned we have a total amount that he anticipate to be converted if pdr to other uses that would be great to have this established and make it easier when we have

discussions we have delineation as to what areas are anticipated to conversion to office space where pdr will be allowed and not allowed and be easier for the commission i think thank you. >> commissioners seeing nothing further director's announcements. >> thank you jonas actually, my in the amount of was related to commissioner antonini's contempt we'll be happy to do the report we have calendared on june if the eastern neighborhoods monitoring report that staff is working on i object to make that part of report and also referenced to a recent e-mail i made this comment to some of the folks in the mission district that were working i would be happy to have a discussion about the potential

changes to the zoning if we need to tweak the rezoning with respect to pdr uses it is time to do that and i object to talk about those changes need to be with respect to pdr uses within the umu zone that concludes my remarks. >> past events at the board of supervisors there was no historic preservation commission hearing yesterday i believe there is no board of appeals report either. >> good afternoon, commissioners aaron starr for the aaron starr, manager, legislative affairs at the land use the committee heard the clean up that was the downtown height map to have referenced to the transbay redevelopment plan it was heard on february 25th and recommended approval as you recall this item was continued due to supervisor peskin about the transmittal of affordable

housing bonus program both items were heard on february 25th to address the conversions the planning department's transmitted the ahbp on friday this week's hearing no denim from the committee and for the to the full board at the full board this week the maurnd assess sponsored by supervisor tang passed its second reading the landmark designation on san marcus the causing passed it second reading and the code enforcement sponsored by supervisor wiener pace its first reading and the establishing the fillmore filipino cultural heritage district was adapted also this week the for better or worse sat as a committee to hear the proposed orientals that has a redevelopment plan the amendment will increase the height if under three to four

hundred feet for blocks within the zoning one of the redevelopment area i'm sure you're aware it relates to the studio gangs high-rise on fulsome street with the map sediment for the story than the permitted donning more affordable housing if this is related to the general plan at the hearing supervisor kim provided openly reactors and representatives of ocii provide on overview of the project and responded to questions raised during the hearing furg or during public comment people spoke in favor and approximately, six people primarily representing park spoke in opposition of the ordinance after the hearing was closed supervisor kim seconded by

supervisor campos recommended to come back in three weeks for the concerns raised by the public during the public hearing lastly on the first reading for the land use and there was one introduction of note the housing balance report ordinance sponsored by supervisor kim the ordinance amends to require the housing balance report data been the withdrawal of housing from the register market including owner move-ins my understanding they include what she wanted to make it official that we include it so you'll be considering that sometime in the future. >> that concludes my report. >> thank you commissioner general public comment not to exceed 15 minutes

at this time, members of the public may address the commission on items of interest to the public that are within the subject matter jurisdiction the subject matter jurisdiction excuse me - at this time, members of the public may address the commission of interest to the public that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the commission except agenda items. with respect to agenda items, opportunity to address the commission will be afforded when the item is reached in the meeting. each member of the public may address the commission up to three minutes. i do have to speaker cards. >> (calling names). >> good afternoon he suppose he spoke out of turn you didn't know the topic brought to your attention and the sail the scale is determined by limits on height and depth that's why we have different zones in the city way back definitions in the planning code any house in the

western neighborhoods was built to the maximum height and depth that was defined in the codes and, yes we did have houses that are were built to the end of the lot those homes were not built to the maximum height and homes that were built to the maximum height but would not occupying up to 45 percent of lot and that is, of course, evidenced by the fact in western neighborhood you would see average rh2 and rh3 no-brainer one and 50 square feet and my question now it that why is the planning department is approving massive homes of 4 to 5 thousand square feet in neighborhoods averaging only 15 hundred square feet and is that obviously times for us to look at the code and update i know it is a huge challenge to go to the planning

code updating height and depth and whatnot the historic significance so some of those like pop outs which back when they were defined as permitted it was basically due to the fact that a lot of these porches that were covered and that's why the planning code decided to allow such things to be included now i'm thinking in the meantime to do something far easier as you may know most cities in north america have flawed area ratio and they used that to control the scale now my question is why is not we're doing this this is a very

simple accenttion that will encourage the development of hoenlz that are more in scale with the neighborhood and not doing to interfere with neighborhood that is already have magnificent homes so this is to me a simple way to tangible the problem and is epidemic of those magnificence homes and this is going to an ad nausea unless we do something to look at this and i urge to look at this and help to guide this thank you very much. >> mr. capping letter. >> good afternoon commissioners thank you for having me. i have a simple question that you can hopefully answer i'm kind new to this type of stuff i

live in the outer sunset where park to park near sunset boulevard roof changes i feel that a lot of people in the community don't know what is going on with that area as far as height limits and also as far as they'll do with the muni stops on terryville street i didn't know or are you guys capable of helping us understand when is going on out there this is basically, all i had to ask i've tried and i don't know what is getting sold to la and what is not you know that's it i'll be happy to come back next week and provide the answers to my neighbors because we have no idea what is going on. >> a because there's a lot of

changes. >> thank you. next speaker. ms. hester. >> sue hester i get to build on the pieces from others comments one i got - because some people call me to get the answers about the planning department and i got a complaint from someone that the agendas pardon the minutes are not online i said look at it of us but back to the planning department site and the packets of just have - >> the site for the planning department has no packets posted since march not for today, not for last week no packets there are no minutes posted for extended percent and people are told to basic go downey download

the minutes are minutes and have to be available to people the minutes link the resolutions that are adopted and this commission is responsible for the commission so you got to get it, it is boring you have a staff the staff has been instructed by the commission there is no skis for minutes not on site and the resolutions linked to the mirgs minutes on site and the packets on site i'm i've been trying to get documents from staff people that are unaware that when you adopted a procedure that was resolving the staff reports cop on tuesday their public documents i've been trying to get documents last week that

should have been available on tuesday people didn't know that so talk to our supervisors one i didn't get a response you have some systemic problems but one of the things i know about because i actually was involved in writing is prop m passed and part of thing that is prop m is that the buildings are supposed to be housing this particular supposed to be in character with the neighborhood everyone that is in the planning department knows that the prop m are drafted and give them to the staff when you are talking about what is happening in the noah valley in terms of scale and the sunset in terms of scale that's a prop m issue not only office allocations it is part of evaluation our responsible for

and the mission has a big problem because it is a tenant neighborhood and the tenants are ignored thank you. >> thank you. is there any additional public comment general public comment. seeing none, public comment is closed thank you, commissioners that will place us under our regular calendar for item 8 the market octavia plan monitoring report informational presentation >> good afternoon commissioner my name is audrey of the planning staff and analysis group the citywide policy division and today, i'm here and pleased to present the market

octavia plan moshtd recorded for the years 2010 to 2014 as a refresh that was adopted in july of 2007 and approved by board of supervisors and made effective may 30th 2008 this is the informational hearing no action on your part that report is mandated in the planning code where it lists the requirements for the planners and policymakers measure the effectiveness of the plan this report is a section of the 5 year for the first report covering 2005 and 2009 categories of information are required by the code will cover the trends and affordable housing and changes to the overall horment and transportation and parking and updates to the implementation

plan and historic preservation surveys when the city's production plummeted nearly half of the market octavia area was passed since then the production in san francisco and in the planning area has been recovery by the years 2014 production nearly doubtdz the production of additional 1 plus new units the housing stock was in the planned area with additional nine hundred plus net unit and also on the last 5 years a total of 8 units were lost in the planned area compared to the one 90 plus this is 3 units lost in mergers and 4 across the

demolition and one removal of one illegal unit and the housing stock is 6 percent the citywide total and as far as the victims are concerned 200 and 61 bulk of the evictions, 26 for owner move-in and others for ellis act wrauflz 1/5th of the units constructed in the area are affordable this is roughly the same proposition citywide with three hundred and 88 affordable units built 24/72010 and 2014 about 85 percent of them were made affordable for the public assistance for very protecting household and extremely low income housing two-thirds were affordable units located in the central parcels looking forward into 20154 easy

85 net units were built in the market octavia plan area 12 percent were affordable and building department of the year 201446 hundred units in the pipeline over 31 hundred were under review and others for entitled and one thousand 38 were permitted for construction by the department of building inspection a section in the monitoring report was development to the parcels shown in the map in blue and the adoption the market octavia plan of the plan the 4 and 98 were built in the parcels of that 72 percent were made affordable by the inclusionary program and others were under review and 8 percent are planned

to be affordable please note those numbers are just for the parcels and not for the overall plan itself and also as for the remaining 10 parcels potential for 200 and 70 netted units non-residential development in the past 5 years the net addition of 92 thousand were in the planned area and itch of that in the form of retail and cultural educational and institutional space the major projects that are completed the sf jazz and the professionalism arts and music education and 100 percent affordable housing for commercial uses on 1600 market street all the new developments constitute one percent increase which is more or less reflects

the trend main increase in the commercial space built citywide the commercial space by in the planned area is implemented with a net decrease in commercial development by 61 thousand square feet all of the projects in the pipeline that had been getting rid of commercial space prosecute will be developing housing and since 201416 thousand jobs in the area representing 2 want 5 percent of the jobs citywide of those jobs were office jobs and in another 35 percent were in other industries bans the commercial pipeline we estimate that three hundred plus new jobs that be made available, however, estimated a potential for a net loss of three hundred and 25 office jobs again, this is just an estimate and based on averages by density

the report also covers matters relate to transportation and parking market octavia neighborhood has along been and remains a walkable place with access to public transit and the slide shows the shares in the planned areas kroorgs to the consensus data in 2013 the parking vicinity was conducted by the transbay joint powers authority and found that over 20 percent of the citywide parking are within the planning and unmetered parking places on-street parking and off-street parking for non-residential parking in the planned areas the adoption of the market octavia is the zoning district that monitored one-on-one parking requirements instead of a closed parking lots the report accounted for prior to the approval and projects that were subject to the new rules in the

last 57 years 200 and 40 parking spaces were permitted in the residential development in the planned area a great reduction since the last period with 6 hundred and 3. >> and in terms of impact fees collected 3 wanted plus millions for the housing projects and total of 8. 7 million have been collected during the reporting period the planning department projected over $19 million that was used to complete the planned implementation responsible for transportation open space and improvements. >> thanks to various city agencies new parks were you built and several more between 2010 and 2014 as an example with the hub and some skate park and dog play

easter area are in an increase served area in existence 2011 the living alley has been completed a prime example of alleys project moving forward improvements to transportation and the bike lane an polk street has been completed in the area as well since the last reporting period the level surveys identified a significant group buildings located on along or adjacent to market street and in april of 2013 those buildings were designated as a city landmark district the market street landmarked district and the same survey identified an architecturally grouping of

building along the northern boundary the park and in 2013 mayor ed lee signed the legislation designating the landmark district which includes 87 residential buildings constructed between 1899 and 1911 monitoring requirement of the mosaic don't require the demographic or economic capability but thought that is worthwhile to note with all the changes to the market octavia the profiles have changed more housing has been built in bigger housing and affordability for all areas and the space is the same it is has attracted for households with children over 5 and the memoranda income and households income additionally car ownership has increased

i want to thank the market octavia communities advisory committee for their efforts in working collaboratively with the planning department to monitor and evaluate the implementation of the plan and as well as the communities as always the report is on the planning department website and published it on the website and sftv.org. >> that concludes my presentation. i'm available to answer any questions and comments. >> thank you. >> opening up for public comment on the market octavia completion monitoring report. >> ms. hester. >> sue hester i was hoping for a written report rather than this oral report

i have a couple of observations put this overhead on the central free parcels were created by an encampment of protective and juggling was adamant i give them credit the money from the parcels had to go into building affordable housing not all of it but a really substantial portion of it we have these factors more affordable housing and not their- they're on two 14 central parcels i don't have any page numbers and the page is two pages before it it affordable housing production very frustrating to not use the overhead so you need to have some information.

>> i'm sorry sue if i can interrupt i sfgov to the overhead please. i didn't, i had to push it sorry. >> so when you look at the central freeway parcels you see what is created by the sale of properties we look two pages back see the affordable housing i think you need in honesty a report how much was kwefrd by the stat to do affordable housing and how much was created by market octavia plan i think you need to be aware that sometimes affordable housing is created by state legislation by developing of parcels and sometimes the planning department take credit for everything that happens not all the result of market octavia plan and secondarily i'm well

aware of that area and the massive gentrification on commercial does happy in hayes valley and a lot of the area east pardon me yes to the east as well as massive gentrification on housing crisis if we are honest we have to look at what happens as a result of area plans that pushes outer the income and pushes out people there was a lot of african-american people that lived in this area before this plan they have been demolished they've been a lot of protecting people that have been pushed out i grant you, you have wonderful trees and wonderful parks and part because of the mr. jennings did that design i hope you'll

insist on a written report and a more thorough explanation this as a report isn't really it and from the same thing is going to happen on eastern neighborhoods in a couple of weeks you will not be serving the public very well. >> area plans shouldn't be gentrification plans. >> thank you. is there any additional public comment on this item seeing none, public comment is closed commissioner antonini. >> i want to thank the staff for an excellent report i think this side give us a lot of detail what is going on in market octavia and the factor that, you know, none mentioned by i'm sure has to do with with the changes within the neighborhood and the positive way the removal of central freeway i think we saw the same thing happen along the embarcadero when the embarcadero

freeway was zoned i'm not saying the plan as not enabled things to change but the removal of freeway was one of the biggest factors and i'm impressed with planning report and appreciate it greatly. >> thank you director rahaim. >> i just want to examine that thank audrey for the report but i object to give ms. hester a copy thoughtful report we have thank you. >> commissioner johnson. >> there was a small - a high quality and looking forward to ones in the future projects particularly eastern neighborhoods but i have a quick question there was a section in the report that metabolizing talked about the impact fees and the project was funded by those

fees i didn't see a much clarity in how affordable housing impact fees were spent can you talk about that. >> that specific question how they're actually spent i got i have information how much was collected as part of impact fee okay. thank you. >> i assume that the answer will come from the mayor's office of housing but in the future not directed towards you but in general that would be good to have an information it is lacking in general. >> what. >> off so sorry not speaking brother the mike those of you there is a pretty good explanation how the impact

fees are spent transportation and open space improvements that are obvious but this affordable housing fees their about say 3 want $9 million something like that yes to be collected and not as clear how i know that is an answer that comes from the mayor's office of housing but in the future it will be good to have that information that is a big hole allison park seen when talking about those fees i think that particularly came a point that a lot of people sort of focused on what what we were talking about inclusionary housing don't good to know how they're used and what timeframe. >> that was actually a concern the market octavia as well we found it most if not all of the affordable housing through the inclusionary housing program was provided onsite are in the

planned area. >> thank you having grown and worked on the market octavia plan in 2005, 5 years or 56 years after the practice prosecutes processing was kicked off i have to say you know, i think this plan area become much more successful because of the neighborhood involvement in that that was ken tense when we had the revival of the process in 2005 and 6 and the work with the neighborhoods and the neighborhoods actually came out strongly in favor of the plan and in terms of the plan objectives so many are fulfilled i think to several comments on the displacement it is interesting you know a woman

over in uc berkley professor called it said there is an infinity demand when you make a place nicer more people want to live there when the freeway there was crime and social issues now, when you walk a through it as gentrified a pleasant place to live with that said, there is displacement i get it i think with the ma'am, economic factors with the city today in terms of the tech industry and the san francisco's place amongst the world in cities the effects of this plan is amplified so i don't think anybody in 2007 or 2008 starting to get into the prop i remember what we see today i don't think

anybody i've talked to planned on this happening try to manage it so some of the discussions in the past several weeks is a biproduct of that a couple of specific points we've heard from mr. henson i served on the chair for four or five years i know mr. henson he wrote on the parking ratios he was asking for us to change especially the hub areas one of the terms being we've created 6 hundred and 8 parking spaces in the past two years and what's the actual number of cars brought in by those units if you cut down the ratio are we having more or truly one car for every unit i

like to understand that i know it was saturated with cars i feel that i live a half a block away i've seen a lot more traffic i don't understand how to increase this cars in the neighborhood for parking or people just maintained with additional cars but i think we need to toosht at the data before we think about changes 6 hundred and 8 plus is staggering good i think we created for unit in a 5 year than a 2 year period and a couple of things mr. henderson wrote i recall the discussion a lot of baej on that and to the best of my knowledge some changes potentially a ways

to go there the removal of remainder of the central freeway if we look at the central freeway years away from inhibition street to lands an octavia boulevard by the central freeway down to vine the cars will go on division and not been able to have affordable housing go to the sidewalk in a lot of the parcels - supervisor tried to get a motion passed by the board and it failed and i think that is a great report i recall the first report honestly it in that was a 40 or 50 page report this is a huge step forward and thank you to

staff one other quick comment our neighborhood was part of the creation of cac a great idea at the time when i saw i was on it actually as it stands today a lot of the people in the creation and formation process served on the cac but fallen off more people are appointed to the cac with a background of the plan and then november comes we talk about the plan or whatever it is a large document like starting all over and the continuity issue 2 members of 7 were around when the plan formation if we lose those two to make sure the goals are carried out in the institutional knowledge remains and. >> commissioner johnson and

anything else. >> no actually director ram. >> a couple of more comments related is the report in part of octavia like the hub the first public meeting last time had a very good turn out to talk about that i think that the issue that mr. henderson was there and the issue of traffic and parking was a big issue you can imagine they're concerned with the parking reduction to eliminate for park and mr. henderson said that is an important part of discussion but the work in the hub is generally the area by van ness and mission is to look at that issue and look at it parking space ratios and traffic because even under security zoning with the emotion of over 3 thousand units to this medium

area of the parking situation could be heavily impacted so we're going to look at those ratios and ramp up our hope just to talk about that for a second we will develop a kind of enough of a project deception, if you will, in terms of of the land use and begin the eir work in the fall. >> commissioner antonini. >> yes. a case for evaluating parking use because it is a fairly focused area we have i'm going to say eight or ten new developments i'm throwing auto u out a number protruded in the placing last few years and various parking so 50 percent somewhere a little bit hire good to do a survey found out how

many spaces and of the spaces that are used how often cars use them we attribute too much of the traffic to residential parking and not enough for that concludes my remarks for other reasons because it is interesting on the rare times the bay bridge is closed the city is quiet as far as traffic is concerned and castro a way from the bridge for example, france restaurant or other designations my use cars to get to say kind of interesting to put a handle on that and with the residential has parking on the entire impact on the neighborhoods. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further, we'll move on to item 9 for case 19 owe 1 fillmore a conditional use

authorization. >> good afternoon commissioner wayne planning department staff the item before you is a conditional use authorization requests to satiate a formula retail use, an apparel story doing business as rp m located on fillmore at the corner of bush in the upper fillmore and ncd and wooermsz the last use was home fooufrn store known and zinc details it relocated 3 blocks south it is a clothing store based in japan the first was in new york city the fillmore administer and neighborhood successors is in

support of approval of this project no other public comment has been received the formula retail kamgs will - the department is asking for approval and supported by the organization and compatible with the context that concludes my presentation. i'm available to answer any questions thank you. >> thank you any public comment on this item project sponsor. >> should. >> i'm sorry my first time doing this. >> hi good afternoon. i'm the president of 45 rp m

i would like to thank you for your consideration and thank you. the planning department staff for their presentation 45 rp m is a manufactures and retail based in japan we opposed first shop in 2000 street new york after 16 years of experience in new york we like to open the second-story in america others 1904 r 4 speed up in high quality japanese earliest incorporating traditional techniques including

embroider and tie-dye in the easy to wear more than fashioned etch item is produced in a quantity each season in pattern textile and shape not dictated by latest trend you can wear for a long time each 45 rp m store a uniquely designed by japanese artism this is regretting a japanese expression using tradition

material mute and other mixed we want to introduce your japanese culture and hope our sense of beauty through our store we firmly believe that 45 rp m philosophy is fit for the street and we really hope to open our second-story 1905 fillmore street we have met with local merchants and a few associations and have their support. >> we really request your support and approval of that project. >> i'll be pleased to answer our questions you may have thank

you. >> thank you. >> any public comment on this item? >> seeing none, public comment is closed. commissioner antonini >> yeah. i think that a very good project fills the vacant and we're honored the only second location in america you've decided to locate a store the benefits are not just having 45 rp m but the fact it will bring people that are interested in our products to the neighborhood that meet not normally be there, of course, they'll have to eat or maybe decide to brows the other boutiques and boeshgz it is good for business only slightly increases the business of formula retail use and i think that is a wonderful project and inspires me to have bolder clothd line for 48 rp m

(laughter). >> move to approve. >> second. >> i think this is the type of formula retail that is good for a neighborhoods i think that solidifies the second designation retail district and the support of administers neighborhood association i can't minimal a better neighborhood yourself. >> commissioners, on that motion there is a motion that has been seconded to approve with conditions on that motion commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson and commissioner vice president richards so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 4 to zero and places us on item 10 at west portal avenue this is a conditional use.

>> oh, sorry. >> she's wearing a 45 rp m i want you to know this is hand yes, ma'am broirembroidered item 10 commissioners explain please. good afternoon jeff horn planning department staff the item before you is a request for krifks to conditional use authorization to you allow a change of formula retail use to a new restaurants limited cafe an existing 2 thousand plus square feet on welter after the 0 project is near one of the streets within the western edition commercial district and 26 x height and bulk district the property currently if

approved for the formula retail lounge that recently closed the item before you as required by planning code section that change a of a owned and operated is an intense indication of use and requires a new conditional use authorization in the proposed formula retail has more locations than the existing formula retail at the - in 201320 locations limited cafe had fwi location and therefore is an densification the cafe style restaurant serving between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. a paragraph of 21 location with an location has currently been approved at yerba buena another is proposed in the

sunset district with militia tenant improvements and changes to the facade and signage it requires a conditional use authorization pursuant to the planning code section 303 plus to allow a change for a retail formula earlier in 2016 a survey was done in the western selma commercial district their currently 37 formula retail or 24 percent of storefronts the majority of retail businesses are financial services and personal services, four are limited restaurant and one a full restaurants the existing lava lounge therefore no netted increase in the formula retail in the ncd. >> at the time of the case report the department received two letters in support of

greater we went neighborhood association and one letter in support of merchant associations one letter has been received in opposition and since publication to letters of support from the communities have been received the department recommends approval with conditions and buildings the project is necessary and desirable it is a consumer basis and will attribute to the overall good services that policies and procedures in a variety of retailers it replaces a ncd and thus has no net change in the listen year change in the district the project will in the replace any retail uses and close proximity to transit and meets all applicable reminders of the planning code and it indirectly and compatible with the

neighborhood that concludes my presentation. i'm available to answer any questions thank you. >> project sponsor. >> good afternoon commissioners my name is and then jackson the founder and chef and ceo of lemon invade i starred in 2008, i'm very excited to be here and potentially hopefully part of san francisco we share the central valley between the two cities and this is definitely the next home for lemonade just to give you a little bit of background on oh, wait - lemonade is a modern cafeteria it is set up that way i want to create an experience where the customer can come in and interact with the chefs and go to the counter and taste and

variablely and making and cheese and not gain a pound i look these things and gain a pound this is the perfect neighborhood joint we call ourselves seasonable comfort forbode we focus our menu on the seasons by doing that we're able to buy fruits and vegetables in peak season and purchase good ideas locally because of that not buying stone food from chile and can't get them here we change our menu 3 times a year one of the most interesting things of this business not the demographic but the psych graphic we have a vast array of

people coming in the stores their searching out this variable, flexible affordable food that you can eat in and take home or take to the park i think lemonade is a perfect addition to san francisco i'd like to introduce our cfo and business partner. >> afternoon commission thank you for having us. up until now lemonade has on a southern california phenomena we have 21 restaurants crossing los angeles and san diego couldn't i kuntsz we're very, very excited to join the san francisco and bay area communities we were fortunate enough to be able to gain access to 66 the loufrnz stores that closed down and in the process of permitting or

construction on yerba buena, palo alto public school burlingame and walnut creek we are applying for the conditional use authorization and the similar process in the sunset we love the opportunity to come to san francisco we firmly believe that the people of san francisco will really love our food appreciate the fact that you can have majgermane - i want to be right of the community we think we recycle the fact

public transportation coming within a couple hundred feet of the site i'm going to show you a couple of pictures. >> is schematics of the lava lounge we view this as a neighborhood hub like the lounge people hang out and enjoy themselves the neighborhood has shown a strong interest so far this is what it will look like the casual environment people hang out and test the foods all kinds of meals a couple details about the project it's the address is 16 west portal, 27 hundred square

feet the same square footage as the lava lounge a few square footage let's open from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and have the breakfast to start with there is no alcohol only beer and wine we'll apply to the license beer and wine is only one percent of sales we expect to open within later this year those are the facts i'll now ask the third member of our team to talk about the communities outreach that's been done. >> good afternoon, commissioners taylor with boasting consulting isle i've had the pleasure to work on this project you've heard the west portal association is in the

project the greater west portal neighborhood association we have met with those neighborhoods organizations several times and have present to this group as well and i believe you'll be hearing from members from this organization a little bit later in public comment but happy to partner with the administers association and help to support they're more important projections so i've been very it's been a great experience and if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them opening it up for public comment on this item there are no speaker cards any public comment please. >> good afternoon. my name is a daddy are the wanting of the west portal after the merchant associations in west portal we submitted a letter in support

with the application i know that is neighborhood association the greater west portal association tom over there has submitted letters i can represent every merchant i've spoken to say in favor of lemonade the lava lounge is a community hub for small businesses and the employees and the commuters on the lines that past through west portal this is literally yards into opening this restaurant we have missed that and lava excuse me - lemonade is the only company that has come to us and actively cowered us and impressed us recreating the community hub that is gone and sitting there looking sad and for london -

want to open up the west portal restaurants and have coffee until 9 or 11 and open that for the commuters and us who start earlier in the day and look at pastry and work with us to be what we need to be and as an all-day freak choices and the outreach to the community is not only a replacement for lava lounge but an improvement and have offered not only to engage as merchants but to work with us on neighborhoods events and things to try to mitigate the impacts for example, of the construction over the last two years to draw the greater san franciscans to the neighborhood but offered charity work a charitable component in los

angeles and i know they're working with groups regarding that now we love to see them next to the west portal playground they've been involved in that positively so the merriments appreciate a replacement of the lava lounge salmon and like it to be lemonade thank you. >> is there any additional public comment on this item. >> seeing none, public comment is closed commissioner antonini. >> thank you as a resident living about a mile from this site i'm in west portal that is a wonderful street and has what many neighborhoods wish they have a movie theatre and hardware store amongst good ethnic restaurants and variety i think this is a good project i mean, i think that will replace and somewhat enhance the lava lounge situation my only regret that we don't have at west portal is a bar and grill it is

unfortunate you come home and want to stop somewhere and have a drink and watch a game it is pretty hard to do that you can't get food and the restaurants you can't get anything but beer and wine and no tv not the fault of this project and you can't get always what you want this is a good project and maybe another site we'll have something that i have described but i think that is seems to be pretty widespread support only one letter in opposition the fear of traffic from take out but that exists i do it we all do it is one of those things that will happen but sort self-regulating you have to find a parking space and get to there and get our food and take it home that's the problem of that person that was shopping more than the facility

it sounds like a good project i move to approve. >> second. >> i think as in the last form or formula retail use conditional use this is replying a formula retail use not the same menu and complimentary nice to hear about someone that can keep the city affordable people had that are here for a while and an incredible neighbor i support the project. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further, we'll move on to approve this matter with conditions commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson. >> and commissioner vice president richards so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 4 to zero commissioners, that places you under item 11 1515 and 1445 third street

notice. >> can we take a quick break please.

5 minute break. >> thursday, april 14, 2016, commissioners, we left off your regular calendar

item 11 1515 and 1454 third street that is only the design approval of the design space good afternoon david staff architect for the planning department the proposal before you to construct two obviously with a total of 4 hundred plus square feet of office on portion the mission block mission bay south block 26 and 27 it is located on two parcels separated by pier point lane pubically assessable open space the project includes 3 thousand square feet ground floor retail and 59 plus square feet of childcare, space that provides childcare services up to 59

children and parking will be provided in the adjacent parking structure building one is located on 1455 third street and proposed as a think a 1160 foot all office building containing one and 97 secret building two an 1515, third proposed and approximately, six stories or 90 feet tall and projected to house 200 and 26 thousand square feet of office today's action to review the design of the previously authorized office development in 2008, the planning commission motion 1617709 allocated miles of square feet only mission bay blocks south 26, 27, 29 through 32 and 33 through 34 and plus

subject to design and approval by the planning commission for a specific building proposing parole this proposed office building is with the uber headquarters on mission blocks and planning commission resolution 14702 the mission bay south is a tight density that is consistent with the goals and objectives of the general plan and 8 priority policies in section mentioned of the planning code. >> let's talk about the design appendixes and the planning department have working closely with the uber design team to arrive the a design it meets the mission bay south design for guidelines and standards with an exceptional design the development proposal meets

the design standards and guidelines but received two variances i'll talk about later the buildings express the technical evacuations u solutions for an external with a outer curtain wall and to design a rich text turdz detailed envelope awhile reviewing the interior spaces and the sculptures behind to do that that relies on a back lighted skylight the facades of both buildings will be troeptd of wire and glass immediately behind the glass will be a vertically place for break out spaces that allows for visual connection between the outside

and the material behind the design and materials within the common areas are proposed to have direct and modulated light and shoordz that are for visuals from the street that will have rich materials white oak and zinc and weathered steel and other materials the glass panels of the facade will be controlled by the buildings automated system within the common areas in addition to theings there are 3 areas of open space associated the privately pier point except for emergency vehicles for the non-restricted moderated traffic and pier point park immediately to 55 plus

third street is in the design and includes a amphitheater and a pier point park providing the opportunity for the public to have lunch the pier point park will connect the two areas and the third small unfinished courtyard to the north of 1454, third street and the existing 4 hundred and 45 mission bay building that will additional landscaping that will include 36 bike racks i mentioned the variances i want to talk about the variances that were received from the cc ii number 1 was the street wall requirement the design for developments guidelines and procedures mandates a southern portion the ground floor frontage in this case due to the adjacent project

to the immediate south of the golden state warriors will have a setback of 10 feet to accommodate the proejdz pedestrians from this center and number 2 is view corridors the d-4-d was intended to having a pattern that used the pattern of the blocks for mission bay to the city's fabric and the d-4-d uses this to establish the corridors this proposal includes two pedestrian bridges that connections the points the bottom of the brim is 44 feet from the bottom of the pier point lane and about 20 feet from the street of 1515 third street it is above the lower bridge with the tape sitting 91

feet from the surface as an extension that is cross peer point lane to be acceptable the design the privileges demonstrate first no detriment and adhere to principles one invitational to have a sense of public space not to proprietaries it and number two exceptional in the design materials and details in a way that is minimally visual and sculptureal as possible and - cc i approved the finding on april 5, 2016, that concludes my presentation. myself and a representative from ocii are here to answer questions now i'm going to turn

it over to the project sponsor thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you, commissioners mr. director with alexander real estate entities united states of america we've been working on mission bay for quite a few of the and those are the last two parcels that fills in the 26 through 28 lots that we started back in 2005 so it is very exciting to be here we we have a design it is exceptional and last week to ask you to hear our small presentation from shop architects we have omar with us >> good afternoon commissioners 's a pleasure to be here as we've been working with david and ocii staff had a great collaboration i'll start by

showing you work from the shop thank you shop architect is a employer of 1 mrs. employees we are interested in technology and come together to enhance the buildings both aesthetically and - we're interested in the material uses of rich materials that bring detail and articulation to the building not just the slap on most active but with the performance of the envelope what you see on screen is 1 leveling west street street is super at all with broujs in the middle is the facade it is trying to replace the traditional technology with transparent films and mulberry a new take on the buildings

in particular in mission bay we asked ourselves what can we do to enhance the district california we do to make sure it feels like the rest of san francisco and the question is really answers by starting with the fact that the buildings are intersection of a very busy hub served by the transit and have a key roll in completing the urban fantastic fabric that is moving from the southwest are part the district and neighbors to the future arena this is, of course, have the most prominence sites at third street. >> as we asks ourselves how the building is for san francisco we looked at the building at the city in 3 different scales the city and it's relationship

to the bay and open space the vertical streets with the typography without changing the course and finally, the rewards you get at the top of those streets usually the public space an opening in the fabric that allows this to happen so we wanted to capture this in the identity of the building we designed the building based on the concepts of neighborhoods neighborhoods that are listened by the vertical need not of the streets and at the intrfshths streets we have public happening appearing throughout the building those are mostly concentrated in the circulation that is on display behind the glazing that was described in addition, this experience is meant to breakdown the scale of the building to activate the

sidewalk with visually but - and goes beyond the building envelope in the landscape plan 3 main public spaces that are integrated into the design by the architecture firm so we've been working with them to enhance the design of pure point lane to make sure we mitigate the lane that runs down the corridor to redesign the pubically owned space at the eastern end the site and finally a considered courtyard that is completes at the northern edge of the site with our building at 1455 meets the other buildings so those 3 small businesses create a realm for mission bay

residents as you can see here this is the main vantage points where people will come to in mission bay if you're coming to the tram on third and south you'll across the street the buildings are connected physically as david mentioned with the description of bridges what is unique about the buildings the office buildings they don't relate relate to the buildings thought anybody not bandit in solid materials they don't reflect the sun as most buildings do to mitigate titles for demands instead we have a building that is based on a transparent exterior and wall that is meant to breathe the way in which we are meeting title 24 demands the

height forming passage based on human principles they should be confront but were not artificially disconnected to the rest in san francisco and in mission bay this is the right place to do this so in short the building breekts it inhales and exhales this operates the windows telling it when to open and close in addition the front porch is a rich series of space that are connected to the circulation encouraging people to walk in the building and in addition a rich totality to the materials it changes throughout the day and reacts to the light of san francisco but also is beautiful and warming on the foggiest day.

>> as you can see a simulation of the operational windows that hinge open and closed by butterflies this is the site plan the uses on the ground were important and we work hard with planning and ocii to make sure the distribution of spaces is optimal to activate the sidewalk as as you may know there is this rail in mission bay the retail that is there is mostly community serving and 3 spots of retail at the corner and the mid stand and the larger building along third street and at the northern ends fronting that courtyard something many has not been mentioned the inclusion of a daycare facility it is incredibly important because

commercial projects skirt the issue by paying the fee rather than providing the service this is a permanent facility it is designed to meet all of the regulations of the codes required of a daycare they serve 49 folks and adjacent outdoor space specifically designed to work with the daycare in addition you'll note there are dedicated parking spaces one that came up how do you, you drop off kids and rather than crowding the conditions we've dedicated up to 15 parking spaces or parishes for parents to drop off their children without being in the street through the parking garage it serves all the buildings between blocks 26 and 28. >> on the design side we really always wanted to generate

a place what you see is us doing it at ever opportunities that's why we required the streets the traditional sidewalk is 12 feet we respected the guidelines and incorporated all the landscaping an urban furniture that belong there and in addition setback the ground floor in order to provide a bigger sidewalk this should mitigate the public transit for future events in the area in addition the building really announces it's main entry by opening that allows up one to look at the front porch, if you will, it is connecting people and you'll notice there are some wind-screens that are terribly important to address the adverse

wind conditions to make third street a bit of a wi7b8d tunnel throughout this in the winter. >> so quickly the screens to retract it pulls back and allows for the sidewalk to expand and finally sit up the facade creating the rhythm that is required in the d-4-d guidelines and a few slides to talk about the public realm as t it relates to the public realm to the urban design it essentially activates the space making it confront for people to use it this is image of a larger model to demonstrate house the materials come together and the setback finally we want to commend talk about the elevation on third street this is really an activate elevation all the materials come to life you see

the what we call eye cubes meeting rooms throat but concentration breaking down the scale and creating interest and a sense of relief in terms of materiality the cultivation of the street didn't stop there it turns the corner as you go there the lane an opportunity to look up and relates to the maritime history of mission bay in studying mission bay and asking ourselves how this building can be about san francisco and mission bay we looking at looked at the gangways and he is materiality and the imagery and sculpture we see on the left two images if henry cam a affirmative that took pictures of the dry dock

and find f it ♪ the storm detached it and drifted across the bay and the scriptures inspired us to create a rich palate in mission bay but interpreted in an contemporary way for the future of san francisco and for the environmental places we're trying to mitigate here you see another animation talking about the lighting on the wall and the is a elementary - there's various public places within the project the courtyard and the pubically owned public space and by which the public arts live on the other side of

the bridge is a dynamic campus and uber is committed with the caliber with the local as well in their curation of the arts for those sites then there is the 5th facade that speaks how the building will be seen by the towers a green roof tipped to work with san francisco entertainment commission management to reduce the capacity of the building to maintain heat. >> that concludes my presentation. >> thank you i want to conclude by saying the team is committing to delivering the building we've designed we have a great contractor as well as a facade manufacturer that will help us deliver in the rendering. >> thank you very much.

>> opening up for public comment one speaker card i'm sorry. >> mr. jonathan macy. >> good afternoon commissioners i'm jonathan dean of architecture at california college of the arts located across the intrastate and the caltrain in the mission bay flats i want to come and share the sense of my colleagues of great excited about this project first of all, because developing mission bay further in a way that activates the streets we imagine benefits spilling over to our neighborhood which has a dirt of retail and daycare and others stoop and then particularly we welcome the work of shop architect in a

way to change and improve the architectural character of mission bay where most dynamic and open compelling parts of marshes we find that the pushing of circulation forward towards the facades that remedying remind me of new york will introduce a kind of diamond workplace the interaction of the public realm we've not seen i'm excited by the mixed mode environmental control system and the promise of operation alable facade of meeting energy codes that have's a cost of design and buildings openness visual and other ways for the public domain so i'm very inspired and wanted

to share the enthusiasm and welcome any questions. >> at the any other public comment on this item seeing none, public comment is closed commissioner hillis. >> so thank you for the presentation and obviously a lot of thought gone into the sdieven this project and shows we appreciate it wherewith kind of the design and architecture is prioritized i think it has paid off the building was great i got a chance to look at the site and visit with the property owners project sponsors but the texture and articulation has done in a takeaway we don't see simply earth so i kind of share the public's excitement about seeing this actually big deal being built with the attention on the

ground floor i think in walking around mission bay starting to see fourth street and thirsted back on third street so really appreciate the retail i think we should encourage variances like this because of retail in the lobby living room space otherwise get from the exterior of the building and again appreciate the architects comments we see sometimes don't get that follow-up so i'm very excited to see this building being built in very much support it thanks. >> commissioner johnson. >> thank you very much i am excited about this project it is one of the last remaining larger lots in mission bay project all over but especially in the south i have a couple of quick comments commissioner

hillis i'm excited to see the ground floor on third street fourth street definitely that retail corridor i think third street because of the location of this streetcar right down the center is pretty wide and kind of i live in mission bay so a little bit of a like a desert not sand but very - i think the plan to have a larger rajt banks and cvss and pharmacies that can handle that type of traffic but would you care to state your name we appreciate we have this a couple of quick comments thank you, mr. architect mentioned that the building breathes my first thoughts seeing the design when i first visit the site a few weeks back i think the materials

and the articulation makes that much more organic and the mission bay south plan really focuses on the dense what you think of urban architecture but the way it is released is boxy a lot of uniformity with the exception of some of the streets in different directions but still boxy format i appreciate we're doing something i appreciate something that will light even the warriors arena a cycle last year arena an office building that is different and hopefully other office buildings or planned office buildings on warriors arena site will be interesting definitely appreciate the

daycare i - i appreciate they've made the childcare facilities with numbers that are appreciateable appreciateable facilities in this area and hopefully not only for uber people but other people that live in the area their babies. (laughter) i think this is my next comment relating to the childcare people that don't know childcare requires open space requirements you have to have a place for the kids to play that scary stranger can't come in easily that requires thinking how you split up open space supervise the plaza and behind that pier point park alleyway that will be using the space i challenge you to not just putting up a gate but how can you make that transition

organic and think about the public art requirement in terms of how you make the gates interesting play structures interesting looking for public art in the plaza and really not - will make that go a long ways when you put a bunch of kids and adults i'd like to see that better transition there the sky bridge none talked about those by we've had discussions about sky bridge here in this commission i think we work well, for this project one you have the warriors arena across the street and not like a bridge taking away the pedestrian activities that norman would have been there and no longer on the street a lot of people in the area both giants games not that far up third street of the arena ambassador basketball and

other events a lot of foot traffic 200 and 40 days around the year they work well and love the good relationship on third street you said it is great i understand the street wall requirement i think the fact the variance makes a lot of sense and challenge architects on the project sponsor to be creative with the public art requirement here with that phase can we do things usable art like bicycle facilities or other things takeaway that wind tunnelness that potentially is the case had the smaller released are closed and make it something interesting but overall really appreciate the design really excited to see this project contra costa come on out of the ground >> commissioner antonini.

>> thank you excellent project a very nice design fresh and unique not monolithic and i like the color this sort brajs color is a nice addition somewhat stayed and now buildings that existing in mission bay step in the right direction and the building is nicely public assessable and amphitheater and pier point lane we'll begin to lighten up the area and greenery that is softer and the idea of setting back the building with the allowance of a wider sidewalk is a really good thing many times building in

doubt have so close to the street it con districts the foot traffic into a narrow area that is thoughtful and will make the foot traffic easier there and also i noticed that you have accommodated your employees by public transit and for instances for drivers with large garages income tax that shouldn't provide a problem in in addition to the t line the caltrain station one important thing a half-mile away the others on 1010 sort of walking distance to caltrain stations and opening and closing windows a wonderful thing as is the daycare and the retails rears which hopefully be a market are neighborhood serving so for mission bay

so and the allotment of over $2 million towards this fits well, i'll move to approve. >> second. >> i don't want to belabor i like the design it raises the bar into the neighborhood. >> thank you. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further, we'll move on to to approve with conditions. >> commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner vice president richards so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 4 to zero. >> commissioners that places us on item 11 excuse me. >> item 13 and item 13 for case castro street a conditional use authorization.

>> good afternoon, commissioners verna planning department staff in a nut shell is a request for a conditional use authorization to allow a change of use to a formula retail personal service establishment on 410 castro street this is near the intersection of castro and market street within the castro street ncd and a 65 height and bulk district the proposal involved their currently 23 location worldwide and this is the use considered formula retail the proposal will be taking over a vacant retail use with the recent opened fitness center occupied by the b of a, bank of italy building the most right
