commissioner bobby wilson recommendation my recommendation to approve the legislation with the carve out of anyone that has an application and not have the the staff's recommendation. >> a ban. >> right. >> huh? >> i couldn't hear the requirements. >> it would be the legislation as proposed with the carve out of anyone that has an application very simple. >> yes. >> that's property for a vote and take it didn't pass move on. >> i second it. >> no, we still have to vote on the motion. >> that's the motion that's there is a motion that has been seconded so essentially the previous no recommendation and replaced with. >> i get it i get it. >> shall i call the question? commissioners and it appears so,

so there's a motion tenant-landlord to adopt a recommendation for approval with. >> commissioner antonini no commissioner hillis marry no are commissioner johnson no commissioner wu commissioner vice president richards and commissioner president fong no that motion fails three to four. >> commissioner hillis so i make a motion to approve are modifications striking the clause unless the ratio of the formula retail is at least 3 to 1 so a ban on certain square footage that 5 thousand square feet but recommend that the board consider reducing that square footage to somewhere around 25 hundred square feet to

consider implementing a ban triggered when the percentage of formula retail exceeds 10 percent also consider isn't it true a ban when the vacant rates community-based blow and certain percentage and consider a tiered system for certain formula retails have an outlet over 11 somewhere like 25 arrest 50 but the remainder rrst 50 but the remainder o 50 but the remainder r 50 but the remainder cus. >> commissioner vice president richards. >> i'm not sure i'm totally understanding that. >> it's a recommendation i'm not. >> disapproval with those recommendations. >> with modifications. >> you know the planning

department has 5 thousand square feet i kept that but asking the board considering to lowering that square footage threshold don't have to put a number and triggered with the vacancy rate hits a square footage in a tiered system with greater than 25 percent or 50 or more their ideas more than their concrete numbers. >> it's a way to kind of get somewhere between a cu. >> a question for mr. sanchez any size requirement requires a cu like in my neighborhood i believe in polk street 25.

>> i recommend we use the same threshold it make sense. >> sure. >> the other thing i sat here i know this commission mentioned several times we need to know that retail a changing the face of the physical word i know that planning department staff and the director started to do an eating and cringing establishment threshold analysis i think that if you have the ban width any comments formula retail how much put it in a package we've heard 20 percent drinking becomes higher we get an idea we're touching on the ones but the other thing this motion were to pass we had - have a recommendation that no

i'm sorry no eating and drinking establishment should steady 20 percent in north beach 20 or 50 percent we keep on approving things 74. 5, etc. we get automatic spending cuts so i'll recommend some kind of concern point rather than keep on adding to it. >> commissioner moore. >> what is difficult to set standard is the fact that 5 thousand square feet a size of formula retail that is hardly available notices thousand square feet places except very, very few and people start to aggregate the facade activism their taping up like one hundred and 80 and 200 small square feet

stores they're in the scale and price range of local business can thrive i think unless you understand the particular dna on polk street they don't address things we're trying to protect i believe that the simple legislation as proposed is the best way of doing it for the retail independence itself based on the actual purchase power a variety over retails by wine and collies and why were you buy groceries not a long shot all you have to do is walk up to hyde or medical recognition to find out what you need with a broader brush and this does

exactly that. >> i heard a motion not a second. >> commissioner johnson. >> thank you i applaud commissioner hilliss motion i'll be supportive of a lot of this if they were enacted but taken together it is a different legislation than what we're hearing if that's the case i recommend disapproval and back to the drawing board and adding in the elements and making a better o'tool for what people are trying to do i can't recommend approval there are so many changes that will be completely different legislation and a different tool. >> commissioner antonini. >> i'm completely supportive of commissioner johnson i'm going to make a motion to

disapprove we've had plenty of finding it needs to be more nuanced and more careful to deal with certain formula retail that you want to keep if going in but others you'll want to work with so this out right band is not good legislation my motion to disapprove. >> second. >> i'll add the staff i think the staff get the tenure of this hourlong conversation thank you feel you can put the bullet with hidden what the commissioners are assessing with other they're other ideas. >> commissioner hillis. >> so i'm going to be supportive i think the board ultimately will decide but i hope they would i think people are nervous about the commercial

corridor and it is i agree with my fellow commissioners a ban is not the right quasi but somewhere in between castro it worked so i'll encourage folks to explore that. >> family through the chair you're recommending disapproval you want a more nuanced approach. >> right and we recommend approval are modifications completely changed the ordinance to try to reach the same goal so you can actually recommend approval with mosaics as i'm sorry as commissioner hillis you

can which was the ordinance for recommendation for approval. >> commissioner antonini. >> no, i think that for the reasons stated over the last hour or more we feel that at least he feel this is not a appropriate or necessary legislation at this point as it is now structured it is one-size-fits-all kills all formula retail and didn't matter local or larger or small how many outlets so rather than approve we certainly have sent a message to the supervisors they can do things on their own but didn't mean not something that could be crafted but if nothing it craft the cu process will be protective have been polk street as in the past and will be in the future that's still my motion. >> commissioner vice president richards. >> i'd like the advice of mr.

starr we're not saying a ban we support the ban only withs administrations with a nuanced approach. >> that's what i'm saying i'm not supporting a ban we want something developed which augments the cu process or a different type of legislation where the ban is liked to only certain types of formula retail. >> good much detail. >> if this motion fails i'll make a competing motion to do what commissioner bobby wilson accident and see if it transaction. >> commissioners, if there's nothing further, we'll move on to there is a motion that has been seconded to adopt the resolution for disapproval with questions or comments and suggestions to be incorporated as finding to the board of supervisors on that motion commissioner antonini commissioner bobby wilson commissioner johnson commissioner moore no

commissioner wu no commissioner vice president richards no and commissioner president fong so moved, commissioners, that motion passes 4 to 3 commissioners. >> (clapping.) >> excuse me - we've had a long day as it is and we still have 540 a large group as well as bryant street i advised parentheses to advise their project sponsors that some of the cases maybe continues my recommendation will be to continue items 11 a and b, 12, 14, 16 ab to june 30th would you go over that one more time. >> excuse me - folks if you're leaving do so quietly we are business to attend to my recommendations to continue items 11 ab, 12, 14, 16 ab,

which whether leave the two largest items reprimanded and retrained on the calendar last year a lot of folks here to speak. >> so the times certain will we hear bryant or la how far. >> it's entirely up to the commission and chair one after a small break. >> that's my recommendation a number of people for d how far we continue everywhere's on the june 30th is vacated we reopened an open calendar date. >> it is quite full do you need a motion. >> excuse me - before we get to there excuse me - folks those folks entering the room the commission will take a short

>> the b have to be by the zoning administrator. >> excuse me - we should take public comment on the continuance. >> any public comment on the items proposed for continuance? >> i know your stressed and in fact the gentleman immediate neighborhood of hoffman wrote a letter to the commission asking for a continuance because she knew you had bryant and never got a respond but since 12 was here and it is unfair she was smart enough to figure out having a horrendous calendar and no one said you're alive that's go continued once before from april 7th so i want to lay that out there. >> thank you. i apologize. >> thank you for being here all

afternoon. >> yeah. we would very much like to finish this first dr and now cu and we don't have a pathway group a small relatively small group i'd be so grateful if we can oppose this continuance and be heard today. >> i apologize for that inconvenient you should have been given the option to have our item continues that was a to the planners i apologize if that didn't get that message i apologize did you get that message. >> no. >> there was no message. >> okay any public comment? and i wanted to comment on item

12 we're here under the law firm the women's we were not notified of an option to actually continue we too would have done see in light of the large calendar and noticed on availability by mr. williams so we requested a continuance i'm a little bit sdoirptd the matter is not going forward any is there any additional public comment? >> okay public comment is closed. campai commissioner antonini. >> we continued it ones at their request it is unfortunate i would have liked to hear it today, i'm amenable to putting it at the end of the calendar it could be 11 o'clock. >> did you want to say

please silence any devices that may sound off during the proceedings. we expect a lot of speakers so far the next item for 540 de harrow out of courtesy o persons for bryant student may want to use overflow room 416 you'll be able to watch and reenter for bryant street otherwise you'll listen for de harrow for sometime commissioners, we left off regular calendar at de harrow a large project authorization planning department staff you have before you a large project authorization to demolish an existing satiable one with 16 dwelling units this was before you on january 7th and at this

point the commission decided concerns by the members of the public regarding did importance of preserving light to the adjacent church in response the commission gate of project sponsor dictionary to sculpt the project along the property line that was shared with the church additional items discussed at this point were landscaping public outreach by the project sponsors and the status of existing pdr tenant the commission after hearing the case and discussing the matter continued to march third and until today's date in response to the commissions concerns the project sponsors have skumentd on the north side adjacent to the church and now proposes a 10 foot setback for the full length of the property line adjacent to the church on the four and five floor of the number of units

reduces from 17 to 16 units that concludes my presentation. at this time. >> project sponsor good afternoon steve for mary tell on behalf of the project sponsor as kimberly stated you asked you to address 3 items with the straight up gregory's and the relocation saint greg's the church foyer was a 4 story windows on the north south and east for de harrow has no effect on the north and east but the sunlight in the south facing 5 feet from the common property line and 3

feet above street level we have addressed the churches concerns as a result the projects are redesigned do preserve the direct sunlight into the church first, the height of the 540 has within reduced from 4 to 3 underscores in the font fronted and 4 for - >> i've got on the overhead the fourth floor plan okay as you can see the process area is the setback on the fourth floor and the church to the right. >> the fifth floor and setback on the 10 foot section here as well as setback in the previously in the front. >> the elevation the setback a

elevation along the street frontage at this time and along the rear two floors of setback in the rear that entire 10 foot section this projection in height eliminates over whereon thousand square feet in residential floor the unit count from 17 to 16 units resulting in the loss of two bedrooms we'll willing to make that for the benefit of the church but not eliminating another footage the church wants more of the fifth floor be eliminated is not needed to preserve they're light we're disappointed the church is not recognizing the concessions that of made we have a video

that shows 10:30 with the proposed video we choose this time as most appropriate when the serves are held as you can see by holding the building back ten feet by both floors the direct sunlight is absorbed concurring the morning housing the church enjoys the sunlight into the foyer for most of the year the offer hanging eves are regardless of what is on the street provided the project is approved we will agree to pay saint greg's a portion to increase the direct sunlight into the church i think that will help on 540 d how far to preserve the sunlight we've offered to make that to support

that entertainment commission of the eves we've agreed to stop the construction on the wednesday and the police code and have access for the church throughout the construction unfortunately despite those and agreements saint greg's has not withdrawn the opposition and brought a number of supporter here to oppose the project even after this keeping in mind the church choices it to replace the windows within 5 feet of property line they didn't get a sunlight amends and our proposal is code compliant and reduced at the front and 20 at the rear adjacent to the church despite the 40 feet height limit and sacrifices an entire unit at a

time when the housing units are the city's top priority the staff said this is the right balance and meets the commission and the staff is recommending approval we request you make the same decision a couple of other issues to address first landscaping during the january 6th the commission requested the landscape for the sidewalk adjacent to the property line be modified to be levy privatized and more welcoming the landscape has been rice for the raised curb for the barrier between the sidewalk and he is landscape and then finally the prior tenant was a tenant starting on 2013 and knew when we entered that was a short time lease earlier this year the sounds like available location on

treasure island and moved there on 2016 and offered rent free for a few months and this is determining their recognition in a letter. >> project team is available for questions i'll show you further plans we're available for questions. >> thank you. >> opening up for public comment a number of speaker cards and few want to line up on that side of the room as i call our name

(calling names). >> sorry oh, mime imi didn't a parishioner eerie serve on the governing board of church and responsible for the fiduciary responsibility for the church they asked me to speak for the church and the 3 hundreds members simply we seek to save lives we're not asking the development be stopped we generously accept change the problem a portion of the building will block the light and negatively impacting the architectural and the function of the church and i was wanting to show a picture. >> there natural light is an

essential part of says space is a wooden rotunda through the clear story windows sfants greg's was built to use natural light intentionally it is the first hearing in 70 january you urged the developers so address light and we have been sincerely working in good faith to find a solution we thank the developers for making the changes we fully acknowledge that, however, their project blocks 65 percent of the light during the winter months that's the time of year we need it the most we're asking for a further a small but significant modification to the proposed building just one and 96 square feet and another speaker will describe that more fully i need

let you you know we fear damage where the sacrifices members lie and it is close to where the demolition will take place and have series concerns about the people that lie in repository i've received more than one hundred personal letters more than 200 and 50 postcards from money in the bay area and the country and other countries around the world who all want to protect the light at saint greg's but finally i wanted to acknowledge 48 folks mother all here we've been here all afternoon people came and left they're other responsibilities and enjoyable things to try to show you, you how much to really

illuminate the reasons that is important to save the light and saint greg's their representative of the mission i'm available for any other questions about saint greg's presentation. >> thank you, ma'am, your time is up. >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> once you start speaking gov. will recognize that. >> i was here in january at the first discussion of this and i'm back again to continue it we have met with the project sponsors and while we made progress we didn't. could to a resolution this is a sketch he droop that i'll consider the non-detrimental solution getting back all the light we currently

have the building would have to be put 20 feet back from the front and the project manager pulled it back ten feet at the fourth level and above will have to be pulled back 35 feet to center no detriment whatsoever when we have proposed in terms of acknowledging that we'd like like to get the best we can but maybe not realistic for us to expect everything this is what we ask the project sponsors to be 15 hundred on the first floor and 11 on the second floor in the tab 3 page 2

what they've offered is this the before you is what they've offered and the red outlines what we've originally requested on the fourth floor and the fifth floor that amounts 37 percent of what we first asked for not even halfway we're asking at this point they simply add this additionally, the yellow square one hundred and 96 square feet on the fifth floor and that amounts to 45 perished of what we asked for that allows the light to flow both the first floor windows most of time during the morning we're compromising we're skwaisz the rest of the day we actively use the space and again those are

the windows in question this is the proposed building and proposed 3 windows on the suicides we're hoping to continue to say sunlight to and other people will speak about different issues relating to the project thank you. >> thank you. >> members of the board i'm paul the director of saint greg's church signs e since i've been the pastor we've welcomed 4 hundred members as part of communities i'm is an educator and sit on the board of episcopal church, i have a great opportunity to interact with people about the building and who were we have literally hundreds of people come to be part of our community to learn

and experience the beauty of who were the light is an essential part of who were during the sole it is a it is significant including christian it we are concerned blocking the light will seriously focus not only worship we told the church we know we'll losses some of the light we are willing to go with the change we know that san francisco needs more housing but asking for a compromise a small restriction for the plan to preserve some of the light that makes sfant greg's to significant for so many people that visit our city we ask you the commissioners to weigh the 14 by 14 foot kitchen area in a

confined development against this and hope to save the light of saint gregory's for future generations. >> i'd like need the overhead i'm john of gold man architect the architect of saints gregory's church 25 years ago we designed this church 540 zoned m-1 only a cuffing about 12 units no danger of that happening back in the early 90s no a danger going higher than the existing building none was doing industrial western not worried about this situation as resulted because of eastern neighborhoods rezone and

non-now, one m u but i want to talk about had minor change we think that a significant improvement to light and would be less than one percent of gross residential floor area we appreciate what they've done i've met with them and appreciate their efforts this is a minor additional change i'm surprised they especially\. >> one hundred and 70 net square feet as the rest of the saint guerrero's people here let me show you. >> sir what we are proposing is that the same as the plan

they have those plans stack except the restriction is 50 foot square feet larger so clearly unit 44 works with the revision and scopes we would support this project with that minor change the roof plan will be affected as shown instead of housing here there will be open that effects the sunlight between the sun angles in the morning as paul saying in the afternoon we're letting go we realize this is asking a lot on this this one extra room to make that the same as room 401 if we can get that we'll be happy by the way, half of my rays clients

i giddy have real estate i i get it what we're i get it what i'm asking if you were a developer i would do this a lot of good will and i'm available to answer any questions. >> i'm sure. >> i'd like to take this opportunity to ask the members of the public to silence our mobile devices if you don't know how please turn them off. >> good afternoon, commissioners as associated priest and proffer of minute try and a at the theoretical union i'm here to save the light and the saint guerrero's i want to say two things first, as someone that prepares graduate level students for leadership i can say that saint gregory's is a unique

their physical experience the. >> and delight and encurrent the light is a beautiful thing one of the concrete ways in which they come know the glory of god and the spiritual educational value is unparalleled for many people the unique quality of our light is an essential part of experiences i you work you to consider favorably our request for a small compromise that will help to preserve this trurtd resource thank you for your attention. >> next speaker, please. >> ladies and gentlemen, of the commission i'm ricky founded saint gregory's church in 1978 and served for thirty years as the director and still go through there now that i'm

space which is exactly what is taking the jobs and madam clerk, are there any announcements? out of san francisco the eastern neighborhoods plan has protections for pdr before the new director came in and all of a sudden got dropped the eastern neighborhoods eir was based on having the umu include the mixed use and pdr so this eir that is in the eastern neighborhoods needs to be reviewed and i think we should start following this type of policies that are coming from the top and the communities to preserve be it further resolved you guys got to stop letting that go away we need jobs at all levels of society not just housing for rich people but need below collar and middle-income? one more example

workforce finally it is particularly important that the developer work closely with the church on switzerland of noisy activities during the holidays and services and insure that the public is not in danger during demo it will be billed on a site building the project sponsor is agreeable for the same conditions of approval for 130116th street and 40116th street those conditions are a public notification and other that has been lacking in the program i'm alison with the grow responsibly. >> good afternoon commissioners mary speaking as a concerned citizen i want to basically agree with the last

one and 96 square feet by mostly the kitchen in a westward direction and making that open space as part of deck conditions number two any parapets on levels three and four will have transparent railings and any kind of light to go through and having a finding that the church has got assess to the southern wall to do any necessary repairs and also steps will be taken to make sure that no damage is done to the columbarum that's the way things are under beginning i dbi and that's my motion for approval. >> second.

reasonable to me so that the church and the neighborhood can talk just as a reminder in the standard motion is where he a community liaison condition of approval that addressed a lot of that. >> (multiple voices). >> just to clarify the lack the saint gregory's that the project sponsor and the building contractor allows saint gregory's for reasonable access to the south side of the south wall once the existing building is demolished that's the findings we've adding to as well the protection is during excavation. >> commissioner vice president richards. >> no, thank you. >> one minor correction you were referring to gralz align

excuse me - commissioner fung deputy city attorney kate stacy i still think that would be a good idea for the commission to clarify condition 3 i'm not sure what was meant by access is that pedestrian or repair >> i believe access for repair to the church southern wall. >> i'll let the commission. >> we'll know there is damage to that wall there's water damage we ask after the building is down the road question have access to make reasonable repairs at our expense. >> you're okay. >> that's your intent and, yes allowing them to make the repairs from the project precedes with the next phase. >> very good commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner moore commissioner wu commissioner vice president richards and commissioner

forward and produce the housing immediately we've engaged a union significant try contractor as our general contractor with significant try with the contractor we work with the trades we've competence with the building trades council to find a way to work with everybody on this project that's really any statement we're here our architect john architecture is here and steve my land use interest will discuss land use issues and our general contractor is here to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you. >> i think we're ready to put up the slide show. >> go ahead. >> it is equivalent on our

screen there we go so john thank you for the opportunity to present this project i'll go a brief overall and be here for any questions walk us through the 3 basic plans where we started as you can see on the screen with a full using the entire site for the market-rate project the blue areas are street level or trade shops the area in the upper left the leasing office for the tenants and the yellow are stoop units two middle-income breaks that assess the podium that is compliant we've heard from the community members area worked with the staff to change at plan to include an alley as you can see the second version in the fall 2015 two buildings with an alley almost through the center on the left side and you see we

there's the amount of square feet the blue blocks off the alley and reduced the parking area we then went back to the community and brought we're squalling it the communities building alternative the diagram on the left side a request for 10 thousand square feet of pdrs and an affordable project on the right side we turned that into a plan and seconds on the left side again we've shrunk the park on the ground floor and expanded the pdr and the shop a cafe on the lower left-hand side corner in the leasing office in communities activity areas around the upper left as you can see a my mind break which is an alley a amuse that goes from

florida through bryant street 25 feet widest allows access to the ground floor in the buildings creating a greater than opportunities for pdrs and art space up to 11 thoughtless square feet and on the left side is a unique and zinc new affordable housing 100 percent affordable housing project that was just described two large courtyard they're facing a courtyard or facing out to a public street and on the left side a large escape facing the south with similar units on the courtyard or the muse the design inspiration drawn from the brick and warehouse so a

brick building with ornamental and the main entrance is a terracotta facades two stories high with the entrance on the street the brick is carried to the ground with stone basis and others storefronts in the next slices this is the view on 18th street and florida it is typical of chairss in the neighborhoods ground floor use 17 feet high so very good space for restaurants and cafes and any other commercial use we have obnoxiously for traffic calming and planting strip deny the parking and sidewalk again that is the woods storefronts at the restaurants space and a little bit of detail on

the windows and juliette balconies this is a view on there under with the trade shops those are commercially viable high 17 trade shops and from makers we met with sfmade and other groups in the mission ideal spatz where studios have available and with a accessory use on the right side the middle-income break as you can see widest enough to allow light and air to assess those unions to face this is a view down the muse with a interrogating planting it is open to the public during daylight and serves as off street loading an inviting space that will connect the buildings to the neighborhoods and add a middle-income street for pedestrians those are slides in

the tenderloin in the national forests as an inspiration not a straight shot but a maurnd with paving. >> as you can see the slide we have a response to every issue raised by the communities i have postcards from many, many people in the neighborhoods supporting the project i'd like to pass out the ground floor does have a mix of uses 11 thousands pdrs with flex and ground floor spaces and achieved by reducing the parking count to a mere 4 point plus spaces per units full code compliant you've been in consistent with no planning requirement to replace those the

city calls for pdrs to locate in pdrs and for umu to be redevelopment for housing is sifkt higher percentage than elsewhere in the city it fully meets the umu the 68 percent height limit in the neighborhoods provides for lands in the dedication and meets the planning code height and open space, parking, bike parking and units closer with minor designs and by repairing the two vacant units with three hundred plus with affordable units every conditional use has been met there are a continues call for moratorium that moratorium was a rejected the solution to the housing crisis to build market-rate and affordable housing and this project does

that over the last two weeks we've showers shared with the mayor's office and become clear no more room would you tell us jeopardizing the financing they are not able to offer financial incentives to change that equation including 16th street last month that on a site included 16 percent affordable the demolition of one thousand plus square footage and we're proposing 41 percent and 11 thousand square feet of pdrs on a site exception it is on fair you consider this project on its merits that project deserves your support jonas.

>> okay opening up for public comment rob poole. >> excuse me - there's organized opposition to this we'll provide 10 minutes. >> jonas thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners my speech a longer i'll have time through this is an improvement it still didn't meet the united call for one hundred union built with the affordable built at the same

time and one to one replacement of pdr the labor communities alliance is calling for 50 percent dedicate to affordable housing not 41 with the percent difference we can come up with something but new york city were 23 hundred square feet of more pdr it should go without saying a influx into a low income communities there will be negative impacts the following maps is an indication the list evacuees around the proposed a nexus from your attitudes fidel is requesting a expectation from the reduction requirement and what i want to see a better project built the code requires the mass breaks ever thirty feed widest

in the massive like this exceeds the 200 feet width that requires this break and he's proposing to make it narrower just 25 meeting feet not thirty overseeing pictures are awful of sunshine but when you have an 8 are 6 foot building you'll have darkness it should be tiered and setback in the middle of his site not at the side yard supposed to be breaking up his project he's putting it on the affordable side not acceptable to the communities the presents plan calls for replacing all the ground floor the alliance of labor asking for the entire ground floor to are pdr

the parking is not necessary and desirable the project is well served by the business routes with the 27 bus that stops outside the project and 33 and 9 are outside the residents will be up for the next generation of tech workers that use carvings and lobbyist we're building for the next generation cars are at a minimum we have i thought iowa was mayor's office in agreement we were good evening to get down the ground floor as pdr instead of parking the critical parking could replace some of the 50 thousand square feet of pdrs we'll be losing with this project and minimally the neighborhoods want parking they don't want to see free parking spaces go away to the neighborhoods the vast majority

of neighbors don't want pollution or hear the loud alarm that sounds 24/7 every time a consider exists the garage if someone is not happy you should do with the environments the use of pdr is a perfect fit for the housing above i'm a director of a nonprofit housing sorry a in time arts development company that has 14 art spaces we super no problem with your neighbors we're quiet and do art we're not loud but the city it gave hundreds of thousands of dollars to the space that the at least we can do is see art space replaced that would honor the mayor and to remain the lost pdrs space i showed you in
