media. i don't want problems tomorrow when go to the chamber and i'm the only black person you stop. my name is ace, dammit in the city by the bay. i've been trying to see our acting mayor. i went to her office, i can't get in there because they don't know what the hell's going on. i'm the acting supervisor of the district 5. my name is ace. contact me. i know everything in the fillmore. when she was a little girl i was working in the fillmore. when she was born in the projects, i was working in the fillmore and i'm not saying this to get at you like this way but you need to see me. i'll be in your office in two minutes. my name is ace and i'm on the case. that's a bulletin. i don't need a press pass tomorrow. you know who i am. >> commissioner: thank you, ace.

anybody else wish to comment on item number 3. supervisor peskin. >> i don't know if this say question for staff or the city senior but i want to make sure the legislative digest the amendments i don't think is correct and explain what the legislation does. instead of saying that it would restrict lot mergers by requires lots along mission streets to be at least 150 feet wide is to be no more than 100 feet wide, right? >> deputy city attorney. our office committed a corrected legislative digest to the court this morning. it's in the clerk's file now and will be in the file going forward. >> commissioner: i wanted the chairman to know i'm reading all the fine print.

>> commissioner: the chairman appreciates it. supervisor tang. >> i have the same confusion this morning and i wanted to check in win supervisor ronen's issue. i'm hearing folks in public comment and i'm confused. said she supports the amendment but you meant the legislation -- >> right. she is not proposing any amendment to this package at this time. the concern about the grandfathering provision has an effect on the specific proposed project underway has not been reviewed and vetted and nothing -- no decision's been made about any grandfathering provision. >> i don't know if there's been a reason given because i talk

generically. i'm curious if there was rationale. >> has not come up to this point. >> commissioner: colleagues, seeing no other comments -- >> commissioner: the only comment i would make is based on the public comment of the attorney representing the project at 2918 mission street. that attorney represented he believed they were grandfathered. if that's true i suggest there's an off-line conversation. it's not scheduled as a committee report. you have until the 23 or 24 to have the conversation. i say we not take that amendment and have that conversation and

as council said he believe it's offered anyway. if that's true there's no reason to include it but why not have an off-line conversation. >> commissioner: okay. thank you. i think that would be great to have happen and understand what's going upon with that said, motion by a colleague. >> i'd move it to the full board with recommendation. >> commissioner: motion by supervisor peskin. supervisor tang. madame clerk, item 4. >> the clerk: in term zoning controls for cu authorization for commercial and storefront mergers by mission, cesar chaf he is and protrero. >> so this is a resolution for

interim controls. there have existing interim controls in place passed by the planning commission. the series of controls meant while some are expiring after their limit of a two-year term. there is one control, one interim control in place that is not yet reached its two-year term and that is the requirement that spaces being converted to restaurant use would have to go through a condition use authorization process. because there's time left on that interim control and because the need remains while the process of reviewing overall retail use and protections continues, we would like to -- the supervisors would lake to

propose to continue -- would like to propose to continue the control and additional use requirement for storefront mergers to create a space over 2,000 square feet. these would provide protection for diversity we see disappearing on mission street and i'd be happy to answer more questions. >> commissioner: thank you very much. colleagues, any questions or comments? we'll me of on to public comment? anybody wishing to comment? public comment's now closed seeing none. any follow-up? >> commissioner: we instituted controls and they've been

successful. i'd be more than happy to send this as a committee report tomorrow with board of supervisor. >> commissioner: we have a second by supervisor tang we can take without objection. adam clerk item 5. >> the clerk: and the western shoreline area plan and wern shoreline area plan to restore the ocean beach shoreline and make appropriate findings. >> thank you, adam clerk. we have our planning department. >> first, i would defer to supervisor tang but i'd be happy to co-sponsor this legislation. it's in supervisor tang's direct. i would like to thank staff in particular work the coastal commission in such a fashion unlike many of the coastal plan

amendments that get rejected. this one -- if we approve it -- i should not put words in my colleagues' mouths but it should be approved at the february or march meeting. >> thank you. through the chair, i want to thank all the staff involved in this particular effort. i know it was a lot of community meetings and so forth. i will say that just to point out some of the obviouses we need the amendment to be able to include issues such as addressing coastal hazard and sea level rises. in terms of factually we know there's issues we're contending with.

>> we have not amended our plan since 1986. this is the first time we're changing the policies and coastal hazards are the driver. they're erosion and climate

level rise and those with problems we'll have more problems in the future. erosion can happen. it led to emergency measures by the public utility commission and public works permitted through 2021. some parking lots have been removed as they become unsafe. we're figuring out the right balances for the coastal zone. this amendment does not change anything in golden gate park. it adds a coastal hazard section and we're trying to restore the shoreline while protecting resources and infrastructure and

existing development from coastal hazards. there's six policies some of which are focussed on the near term treat plan and some are long-term standards because erosion are problems we'll continue to deal with forever. this has been a multi-year process and so from the project launch through some data and model work in policy development we had a community advisory group for the professional and interagency advisory group because again there's extensive public lands with city and federal in the area.

we had fire interagency meetings. we all understand what the proposed amendments are. it's had an informational and initiation and adoption hearing. they recommended adoption in october last year and pending local approve we'll submit to the coastal commission for certification. as supervisor peskin noted if they reject it, it will have to start back at the planning commission. i think we have done our best to work through the problems so you don't have to do this twice. that concludes my presentation.

i'm available for any questions. thank you. >> commissioner: we'll move on to public comment? i have two speaker cards. mike grizle and bill mclaughlin. first person, come on up.

>> one relates to this restrictions on new development in the erosion area. recently the sf zoo has build their own science center atop at the apex at the erosion site. this is areal concern.

there's been new blocking for the public and the zoo wants to build their own parking garage. we need help anything you folks can do. thank you. >> commissioner: thank you, next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i'm with the surf rider chapter and work in a leadership type role. and we'll look at whether it can be relocated as an important

>> there's a curiosity about the recycled water plant. we have information about that occurring in the same location as the retreat is going on.

>> next speaker, please. >> i'm here on my own behalf. at the community meeting may second of 2017, two issues were brought to staff's attention, one issue is the u.s. geologic survey how san francisco bay is contributing to erosion on the southern portion of the ocean beach and accretion of build up on the other portion. the other is the sanctuary. it's reviewing its management plan. it's reviewing the possibility of incorporating the waters off san francisco into the sanctuary. these waters are an exclusionary area and known as the donut hole. they were brought to the attention of the planning commission on october 5 of 2017.

this commission recused herself. >> commissioner: thank you, any other members push to comment? supervisor tang? >> thank you to those who came out to speak. i do know that in speaking with the various agencies and including spur we haven't settled on anything yet

regarding parking. it's not something we have arrived at a solution yet but it's not to say we have for sure taken away all the parking yet. it's an evolving situation.

>> i want to thank you the coastal commission for their work and look forward to passing it onto the full board as a committee report and getting to vote on it again at the coastal commission. >> commissioner: we cannent -- entertain a mission. >> and we'll move it forward

with a positive report. >> we can take that without objection. clerk, will you call item number 6. >> the clerk: item number 6 the resolution imposing interim zoning controls to require cu authorization for personal services uses. >> commissioner: we've been joined by supervisor who proposed the legislation.

>> they put together a neighborhood plan. we have been continuing until may or june of this year. it will have been a full year plus. the department of planning and office of economic and workforce development have led the effort with 26 members of the working group all neighborhood residents from all walks of life. we're happy with the process. the zoning control is meant to put a pause on these and hopefully by the time we're well along to put together the planning, these zoning controls if this board and body supports that will then will have the tuns -- opportunity to come

back and adjust later. essentially it would require institutional uses, private community facilities, social services and personal service uses like hair salons and nail salons and also other uses that aren't necessarily promoting of light retail in the corridor. [please stand by]

. >> and so when we come back to the planning commission and hopefully, eventually to the board of supervisors, we'll be looking at public mobility, land use and housing, which obviously these interim controls would impact, and how do we support the existing small businesses and continue to make it a neighborhood where folks can open up shop, continue to be entrepreneurial, and continue to support their families. i'm happy to take any questions, but it's important to think about these, thinking as a city, how can we advance toward those goals, and i think as the supervisor said, putting a pause on some of the things that happen in the neighborhood can help us get some breathing

room and space so we can bring forward some legislation that advanced us as a neighborhood strategy. >> thank you, miss tanner. i also wanted to bring up one other point. we have over the years, we have a group that's been there, working, the excelsior action group, and they have been working on a lot of these issues over the last 15 years, working with stakeholders, merchants along with the excelsior outer mission merchants' group, so there's been a lot of work that's gone into this, and the work that i've done in the community has been listening to this, kind of reflecting that desire. also, there's been behavior that has been not permitted that we're trying to help control for a lot of uses pop up that are not even permitted uses, and so this is to put an additional eye on that, what types of uses need additional scrutiny.

so that's it, colleagues, hopefully, if you have any questions, let me know, and we can move the conversation forward. >> colleagues, any questions at this point in time? okay. seeing none, we will open this up to public comment. item number 6. seeing no public comment, item is closed. >> i don't need this to be a committee report. this is fine, we're going to have some more conversations with planning and economic development and then we'll go from there. >> okay. so colleagues, could i have a motion to move this item forward to the full board? >> supervisor tang: so moved. >> and moved by supervisor tang and seconded by supervisor peskin. okay. madam clerk, do we have any other business before us today? >> clerk: no, we are done.

>> okay. that concludes our calendar. we are adjourned.

>> item one call to order. director tsen, director richardson. director samaha. director moss. director giusti. present. we have a quorum. >> good. before we start the next item, which is the general public meeting, i would like to actually open this meeting with is the first public meeting in 2018 of tida to have a moment of reflection about mayor ed lee and all of us were shocked by his passing. i was actually travelling in the south of china in the region where his parents had come from.

it's also the area where my husband was born. so we were travelling in that area when we heard about his passing. we were so shocked and so grieved because he was a friend of mine for many years. over three decades. he actually officiated at my daughter's wedding and so he is greatly missed. i think that in this era of time when there is so much political grand standing, it's really rare to encounter a man who was as humble as we was and dedicated the notion of public service. that was his whole being in his career was to serve the city that he loved, san francisco. and he never forgot his simple

roots from an immigrant family with a single mother who raised her family in subsidized housing and he never forgot where he came from. and i think that he did so much for the site. some of it will come. the fruit of which will come later on. he was criticized for not doing enough for affordable house. i know as a developer in the private and non-private sectors, he did more than almost any other mayor in terms of housing finance in terms of his dedication to people who didn't have house, who didn't have a voice in this society. he did more than any other mayor to increase the role of minorities and women on boards

like this one and on commissions. we need to be grateful to him for leading us in that direction. so it's in his memory that we start the first meeting of 2018 and may he rest in peace. i'd like to open it up to commissioners and members of the public who may want to speak as well. yes. >> thank you. i thank you that. that was very heartfelt. mayor lee appointed us onto the commission and grateful to giving me and all of us a voice and his encouragement of young minorities to take on civic roles has been very empowering.

him with his background in civil service. he started off as staff and was always a reluctant politician and set a good example for the city to work collaboratively across all sectors. i hope we continue to honor his legacy through our decision making and to reflect his passion for creating quality house and vibrant communities for the work we are embarking on in treasure island and he was implemental on moving the development forward and it would be great if we opportunities to dedicate a special feature on the island in his memory and i'd like for us to evaluate that. thank you. >> thank you, commissioners.

mayor lee was a great friend of mine. i can say i've known him for decades. even when he was the city administrator and before that was a regular guy on the human rights commission. i was there when he died with the city hall director and the director of his mayor's office and you can imagine hours later when i got the call i thought i had a nightmare and i took it hard and served on many organizations and this is on

record about nine months ago i was doing a groundbreaking of one of senior housing and mayor brown was there and congressman pelosi and dignitaries and the statement in which in which i had spoken with others on several occasions, it is true, more than any other mayor we do respect and most i've had the privilege of serving under them, mayor lee has eclipsed all the mayors in terms of housing. i spoke of that during the groundbreaking. i said, mayor lee, you know, i invite you and we're doing the groundbreaking and i see you where ever. how are we going to quantify the house you have speiarheaded andi

wanted it make it known to the public because he made a concerted effort to make sure that the seniors have housing. and in all areas of san francisco and if you go to the bay view and the sun set direct, mayor lee made an effort. i was there and he said let's get it done. i pushed it once. what's it going to stake for your staff and to compile all the glorious accomplishment you made. i remember saying mayor, i will volunteer.

we cannot for get the legacy. the takeaway is the clock is ticking. when we have the privilege and opportunity to do well to do good, we should seize on that and we should do that with integrity and we shoved do that with poise and we should continue to do that. so we had bearing for treasure island. all the milestones have been because of mayor lee. i can talk about all the projects downtown that i personally i know mayor lee spearheaded. his legacy will continue but it's left to all of us to compile all the records and when we speak, when we deliberate to evoke his memory so people out there and some in the city are critics because they don't know so when you're ignorant and you don't know you say he hasn't done anything but no, it's due respect to the mayors in the

city, mayor lee stands alone as someone who has taken the ball to ensure the city's passionate and compassionate about people and all i wanted to say to his family may his sole rest in place and mayor lee's legacy will never never die. thank you nor opportunity. >> thank you, linda. >> i want to echo much of what has been said already. mayor lee will be missed. i first met ed lee he was doing visionary work then we had to

push for transgender rights in san francisco. this is before the word mentioned the word transgender nationally and he a leader in that effort. and in the years we've seen him grow and be a visionary to the production of affordable housing in san francisco and in his honor we need to keep pushing forward on treasure island to implement his legacy. so thank you. >> i think it's a measure of a person's success in life that so many people worked with ed and for ed consider him also a friend. and my relationship with ed goes back to his days in public works and we had tough assignments

around cleaning and greening the city and we have to be able to say he was my friend and i w benefit from knowing him. i think that is what most people would say. >> thank you, paul. bob. >> yes, thank you. i had the opportunity to work with ed when he was director of public works as well as assistant to the director. he came to dpw at a time when we need to improve our relationship with the departments we serve. from his role as purchaser coming into public works, he brought an outsider's perspective to the department and both building relationships with the contractors that contract with public works and

also with the many agencies the department of public works serves and many people have mentioned the focus on housing. we too met with ed on the many before he passed. we emphasized the commitments he's asked for in the timely review and permitting of projects and the importance of delivery of these housing units to the public. again, i just wanted to express my gratitude in having worked with him and his commitment to this project and to the affordable housing in particular that were delivered.

>> we'll look for opportunities as we develop treasure island to commemorate him. >> the clerk: item two, this item is to all members of the public to address matters in the subject matter jurisdiction that are not on the agenda and public comment will be held on each item. members of the public may address the board for up to three minutes. you'll hear a single chime and there are 30 seconds remaining. prior to mike the -- making your comments, state your name and the public comments you are making to any board director. [off mic] >> i want to thank you for opening the meeting in mayor lee's memory and his honor.

i'll share just a brief very poignant experience that i had. so the plan took a long time to get to fruition. the development plan for treasure island and when it was finally passed with unanimous vote at the board of supervisors in 2011, there was a very big press conference in the mayor's office to do the public signing of the disposition and development agreement and there were numerous copies the mayor was signing and there was in different dignitaries there of course. at one point they said, cherry williams said for the homeless initiative he quite sincerely without batting an eye and it wasn't political rhetoric he said was the most important part of the project. it felt extremely sincere and

his support for our efforts have proven that it wasn't just any kind of political posturing but it was who he was and the kind of values that he espoused. i just wanted to say that will always be my memory of him saying for an enormous project like this it will help those that have the least that's the most important. i think that's a strong part of his legacy and i want to make that mention. i had one more other thing i wanted to mention in public comment and that is we are going to be changing our name to have an inclusive aspirational vision for the island. i think our name will reflect that and we'll have a launch for that on february 2 at 10:00 a.m. on treasure island. we'll invite all the residents that live there and the

commercial tenants and so form. we'd love to have you there and we'll be sending an e-mail with more specifics but i want to let you know that and thank you again for opening the meeting for to us have that moment to reflect and remember the amazing work that mayor lee did. thank you. >> good afternoon, directors. i'm with treasure island community development. i do echo all the sentiments expressed. ed lee was indeed a very great man. we found him on behalf of trid very approachable and steadfast in his vision and support of the project. up to the day he passed he was still working hard for the project and giving the department his direction to move the project forward. so we will always be very grateful to mr. lee for giving us direction and helping us move

forward and i do endorse the idea of commemorating his memory with a feature on treasure island. we look forward to work the board to make something like that happen in the near future. thank you. >> thank you. hearing no other public comment, next item please. >> the clerk: item three, report by treasure island director. >> thank you, directors. the flea market will return after taking the month of december off. i'm happy to report after having given several updates, yesterday mercy got its finally permit approves and sign-off from the department of public health and they'll be training staff over the next couple of days with the intention to open next week. so that's the new container restaurant on the island. also the market in front of

building one has closed. we're in the process of relocating it to its new space in the building of building one. as the geo technical work starts up they'll be demolishing the market location in front of building one. that's happening. as soon as they've stocked their location they'll be opening hopefully next week in the new location. last thursday's earthquake was felt on the island being in close proximity to berkeley than most of san francisco and we were able to conduct the damage assessment windshield survey to verify there were no damages

result from the earthquake. we did have a power outage christmas eve on the island due to a goose flying into the power lines. despite that outage, last year was we had our fewest number of outages since the puc made the investment in the infrastructure six years ago. we'll have new electric vehicle charging stations are going to be installed at 9th and avenue b between now and april 1. these will be replacing the charging facilities that used to be in the parking lot at clipper cove. that parking lot also is going to be closing and demolished shortly. and tida and puc are continuing

to placing street lights with-led lights by doing work in the residential area and between california and 9th street. also, the department of public health community clinic has entered into a pilot program with the island cove market to provide educational materials at the grocery store on healthy eating habits and also recipe cards for healthy recipes. and it reported all the recipe cards provided were used up so they have a new recipe they'll be providing the next quarter coming ahead. we'll have an update on the housing during regular agenda
