requirement. we believe that in exchange for that 120-day approval, we should see an additional affordable requirement as part of projects that do the h.s.d. we hear over and over again how much it costs developers to wait the two years. so in exchange for that, we think we should be able toll get, i don't know, 5% above, as what we get as a community benefit in ex-chanunnge -- exchange for the h.s.d. thank you very much. >> good afternoon, committee members. i'm bradley weedmeyer. architectural historian that comes as someone who was a research assistant to another historian that 60 years ago,

when it was stopped the demolition of the mint. robert justin clark, professor emeritus, keep him in our memory, but the mint is so important and i know it's hard to fund everything, but the $5 million from the $20, let's put it back and give consideration to the h.p.c., historic preservation commission, which is one of our city bodies, that's asked for $50 million. i don't know if we can do that, but let's try. the stabilization is so important. just in my 41 years in san francisco, waiting for buses at 5th and mission, you see the cracking of the great granite blocks. the granite lady needs stabilization or we're going to lose her and you see the rust and other things that have to be aggressively addressed. we don't want it to languish. and we don't want the plan to

langui languish. we want it to be a center of community and historic resources. so let's get the full funding and see what we can do about that. thank you so much. >> supervisor tang: seeing no further public comment, through the chair, i would like to ask that we close public comment on the items. public comment is closed for items 7-11. >> supervisor kim: there's a series of amendments that i have stated on the record. i also want to add that sara dennis phillips is here to answer any questions. a couple of things i want to note in regards to public comment that was made. there is an ordinance that is being drafted by supervisor sandra fewer on the right of first purchase that came up at public comment earlier. there have been meetings where

we have discussed accusation. i'm not sure if i should ask ms. chan to speak to that, but if you could speak to how much money is available. you don't have to come up now. i will good through a series of responses. i wanted to note that we have not added any additional key sites to the nine that were originally in the plan. there is a discussion and there was a request to add 505 brandon, but it's not been included last week or this week. our also is planning on drafting a good jobs resolution. this is something that jobs for justice local 2 and we've been asked to do to ask project sponsors to write and development a jobs plan for not just the construction jobs but long-term jobs that they will be completing. our office will be working with the planning department to split

the citizens advisory committee between south of america the and now east, central and west soma and the mission, waterfront and showplace square neighborhoods. that's another trailing ordinance that our office will be working on. i do want to consider the discussion around open space. i appreciate what members of the public have said. there are portions of central soma that should be creating open space and rec centers that cater to youth and families. i do want to note that within the central soma benefits package we're seating aside $25 million to renovate gene friend rec center, which is also increasing square footage, by increasing the heat of height, so it's a minimum of two levels.

we also are planning to build a new rec center with a swimming pool at the tennis court sites. we're looking at a new one-acre park in the southwest portion of the plan, along with other parks, but it is noted, duty noted, the need for youth and family needs and also looking at how can better serve ya youth a family needs. we are looking at looking at the school board to in the deuce a resolution to dedicate school impact fees to south of market. we would love the assistance of our community members here in getting that through, because that's not something that the board of supervisors can do. it will be through the board of education. finally, on the restoration of u.s. mint building, it's not a

decrease. when it went to planning, it was proposed at $10 million. we have increased it to $15 million. so it's -- i would not look at it as a decrease, but rather an increase. and i think that given the immense amount of needs in this community, most importantly, affordable housing and preservation of housing and jobs including p.d.r. and open transit, who are balancing a lot of needs. while it may seem that we overwhelmingly heard from stake holders, know that we've engaged in many community meetings with participants and doing the best we can to spend limits funds, though a great deal of funds -- it will be the most generous community benefits package ever seen in area plan, it's a balance of so many different needs and the old mint is a very, very small part of that.

so it will be an increase. that amendment has been made under amendment 15 and reallocating funds to a p.d.r. relocation fund, knowing that we're losing many p.d.r. uses and central soma plan and as many of the key sites and project developers reconstruct and rebuild we want to be able to continue to stay in san francisco and hopefully able to stay in the central soma and south of market neighborhood. so, colleagues, would love to address any questions that have come up now that we've had time to review the amendments. >> supervisor tang: thank you, supervisor kim. i had a moment to look through these. thank you for clarifying certain questions. again, given the sheer volume of commenters that came out today regarding the mint, i wanted to focus on that, not to take away

the fact that this entire plan and how much work went into it. i do want to acknowledge that and thank you supervisor kim and the planning department for that work. for now, one thing i have is, regarding the mint, yes, i understand that p.d.r., preservation, is important. i'm wondering if there's a ballpark number as to how many p.d.r. businesses we're looking at in the creation of $10 million relocation fund? is there any estimate? thank you, ms. chan, from planning department. >> supervisors, so this is a new proposal, so the details haven't been fleshed out. so the amendments are to create the fund and we'd need to do more research to really establish the number of

businesses and so on. but depending on which source we look at, it's 150 to 200 p.d.r. in the area that are active, we think. so it depends on water is advices we're providing. also, we could speak to some services that we have for p.d.r. businesses. some of the funds could support existing services. >> supervisor tang: thank you. that's helpful, so roughly 150 to 200. i would love to see in summer or early fall, more analysis on that. and then going to the mint, i'm curious -- and i was not part of the long discussions with the community, but how is it decided that the money would be taken from what the mint would have received under the c.f.d.? for this relocation fund?

>> we would defer to supervisor kim to share more information on this, but we did take a look at the entire public benefits document, so $2.2 billion, which is a range of categories. and we were looking line item by line item to see where there may be other funds that are available. and everything in there, we prioritize and think are important, but we were trying to figure out where the key opportunities might be to find funding elsewhere. >> supervisor tang: okay. supervisor kim, i don't know if you have more background on that and how it was arrived at for the mint. >> supervisor kim: total, $104 million allocated to the cultural preservation services. if you don't want to just look at the old mint, because it's just one building, there's $104

million allocated for cultural preservation and community services. $50 million to dedication to restoration of the u.s. mint, $20 million for maintenance of historic buildings throughout the district. and then a mixture of new facilities, including healthcare clinics, programming, and cultural amenities. it's a key part of making sure that we're helping to preserve a neighborhood. when this was first proposed in may, the old mint had been allocated $10 million. so it is an increase at $15 million. it was at the planning commission that many stake holders came to speak asking for an increase in the allocation. it was proposed at $20 million. again, like i said, if you look at the list of all of the public benefits packages, they're all incredibly important.

so we just have to play a balancing act. we're dedicating almost $1 billion to new and rehabilitated affordable housing. by far and away, there's the most important priorities. keeping people here in san francisco. i just don't think there is any comparable priority on this list as there is with affordable housing. also, public transit, capacity enhancement. this is not just a huge priority for the neighborhood. and they actively want to make sure that we're serving our youth and families, many that live in south of market, whether it's expanding parks and rec centers, open space, linear park and making sure that we are keeping the popos maintained,

but in a way that's hopefully of service to the neighborhood as it came up in public comment today. production distribution and repair is also a big priority of this neighborhood. it's just not preserving uses in our city, but also living-wage jobs, so a diversity in our work force. and then we have the cultural preservation services that i mentioned as $104 million. next we have environmental sustainability and resilience, very important. making sure as we build out this dense neighborhood, we're working on air quality issues, noise quality issues, stormwater management. other energy and water efficiency projects. as this neighborhood grows, we're trying to move forward as carbon neutrally as possible. that's come up in the e.i.r. it's a great concern to the residents, making sure that

we're keeping them healthy and safe and that as we grow as a city, we're the model for what it means to grow and be an environmentally friendly neighborhood. childcare centers, schools, betsy carmichael, this is the smallest pot. we want to be sure we're serving our youth and children and families. the items are important and wants to increase affordable housing funds, environmental funds. so the balancing act that we're playing here is what we're bringing before the land use committee. >> supervisor tang: thank you for that explanation and i see that another $4 million is coming out of the sustainability -- sorry, environmental sustainability and resilience category as well as $1 million water recycling and stormwater management. how much of they receiving?

they will be okay? >> supervisor kim: yeah. so this -- i came through some creati creative brainstorming. there are enhanced requirements that has been passed around stormwater as well as -- what was the second one? stormwater management and water recycling in parks. so we reduced this dollar amount. project sponsors will have to provide that on site on their own dime. so there would be less of a need for the impact fees or c.f.d.s to contribute to that. >> supervisor tang: okay. so, began, i do appreciate supervisor kim explaining this balancing act overall of how to allocate the c.f.d. funds. this amendment is not to the

planning code or admin code, but to the implementation program documents and how it is that the community benefits, the funds will be allocated. but i would like to, following our land use community hearing, continue that conversation, given the amount of concern that we've now heard from folks and the community. so i definitely want to be able to address that, but i hear what you are saying. so -- and i know that this will have to go back to planning commission anyhow. but i wanted to make planning staff aware that i would like to follow up with you on it. colleagues, any other questions or comments? >> supervisor stefani: i have one question. i want to thank supervisor kim for the context around how the money will be reallocated or or allocated. is there any flexibility in the funding? if needs changed or something happened to the mint that needed

more than $15 million? i'm wondering how concrete this is? >> supervisor kim: this is an art, not a science. there will be some flexibility as time moves forward. the c.f.d. will have self more layers of approvals and every time we go out to bond, we'll have to go through some approval and i imagine it will be flexing of dollars in different categories. we also have to keep in mind that these dollars don't all come in at twice. it will be over a projected 25-year life. and so there will also be a very fierce, rigorous debate on how and in what years the dollars are spent as well. so i think you will see a great deal of flexibility via the process into the future. there is is a suggested plan of how the funds will be sent out.

the impact fees are fairly set in terms of the arenas that they are allocated to, whether it's transit, affordable housing, open space. within those buckets, there is discretion and most all of that comes before the board of supervisors. the c.f.d. has to go through several additional layers and before the first bond is issues, the expediture plan will come before the board of supervisors. so there will be flexibility based on need and change of costs. >> supervisor stefani: okay. thank you. >> supervisor tang: any other questions, comments? one final comment, one comment was that amendments were driven by project sponsors. i push back against that. we'll be sure that they're heard at the planning commission. any amendments at the full board

will not require rereferral. but i wanted to give the community as much time as possible to evaluate the requests, for instance, the values, as we move forward with the process over the next 1 1/2 months. very few amendments requested by project sponsors were included unless they were technical or increase our ability to increase housing. if you see any amendments by project sponsors, they increased housing or in relation to land dedication that's part of a commercial -- mixed commercial residential development. i want to assure the community that i have pulled back the sponsor-driven amendments. but there will be at least 1 1/2 months to go through the amendments with our office through a process. >> supervisor tang: thank you, supervisor kim. looking through your summary from today, i agree that most of

these are to create more affordable housing. with that said, what would you like to do with items 7-11? >> supervisor kim: i would like to make a motion to amend as i had stated prior to public comment and i would like to make a motion to refer items -- sorry. let me pull that up. city attorney john givner. >> the committee should continue the items so that planning will have an opportunity to consider the amendments. and the clerk's office suggests continuing it to a date certain for noticing rementquirements.

practically speaking, the soonest that the planning commission could hear the items and act on it and send it back to the committee after the board designed the ceqa appeal on september 4 would be september 10. so if you continued it to september 10, you could at that point if the ceqa appeal is resolved, send it to the full board. if the ceqa is not resolved, you could continue it on september 10. >> supervisor kim: so i will continue those items to monday, september 10, if the chair deems that date okay, so we don't have to refer items 8, 9, 10 and 11 back to the planning commission. we can simply continue the planning commission and hear our amendments and make recommendations after the appeal on september 4. is that correct? >> that's correct. after you act and continue the items today, the clerk's office

will refer all the documents back to planning. planning can hold a hearing and take approval action to the board and consider ceqa appeal. >> supervisor kim: for item 11, the 90 days by which we must act is now -- am i looking at the right one, item 7? >> that's right. >> supervisor kim: which the board has to act within 90 days but because an appeal was filed, that 90 days has proven. >> correct. you will have time under the ceqa appeal to act on the general plan amendment. >> supervisor ki >> supervisor kim: i want to make that clear to items of the public. it is essentially frozen in time

and will continue that until october 2. >> supervisor tang: are we taking the amendments today? >> supervisor kim: we are first. >> supervisor tang: may we have a motion to amend -- >> supervisor kim: as stated. >> supervisor tang: without objection? >> supervisor kim: and motion to continue the items to land use committee monday, september 10. many of the amendments that i made today require rereferral to planning commission. >> supervisor tang: made a note of the september 10 date and we can do that without objection. okay. thank you, everyone. madam clerk, are there any other matters before us today? >> clerk: there is no further business. >> supervisor tang: thank you. we are adjourned.

>> hi, i'm with building san francisco. and we have a special program of stay safe today where we're going to talk about what you can do to your home after an earthquake to make it waterproof and to be more comfortable. we're here at spur in san francisco, this wonderful

exhibit of safe enough to stay. and this is an example of what your home might be like after an earthquake. and we have today with us ben latimer from tvan. thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> we'll talk about things you can do you don't have to be a professional contractor to make your home more livable after an earthquake. >> i want to talk about things a homeowner can do. we have comfort and we have things like a little bit of maybe safety if your front door is ajar and waterproofing if you have a leak in your roof, or if you have broken glass on the window. >> so unr, one of the most important fib use is keeping outside out and inside in. let's look at windows. >> let's assume this window is broken in the earthquake. we have wind and rain blowing in. one of the most important things you need to do as a homeowner is secure the plastic properly. if you just take staples or nails and put them into the plastic, we're going to get a

strong wind and rip it right off. what i'm going to have somebody do is they're going to have -- this is an old piece of shingle. you might have -- everybody has a piece of wood in their basement. it doesn't have to be fancy. they take out this rusty screw begun, and hopefully you have one of these. >> there is one at the neighborhood support center. >> at the neighborhood support center. you're going to wrap this plastic around this board, take your screw. and then screw that in. >> you need a permit for this? >> you do need a permit for this. and you can contact the former head building inspector to get that permit. that's it. now when the wind blows, it's tight and it's not going to pull through, having a single point of contact. >> great. what about this door? take a look at this door. what can you do? let's say it doesn't shut tight. what can you do? >> for the sake of argument, we're on the inside. i can't lock my door at night.

i have a very similar, very similar idea. i'm going to take my 2 by 4. i can put it across the jamb in the door. one. two. maybe i want another one up here, maybe another one down there. but i can go to sleep. and that quickly, i can get it off in the morning. >> terrific. what about the roof up here? we see people throw blue tarps over their roof after an earthquake. that seems reasonable. >> i think the blue tarp is reasonable. the things that people want to know that they need to know is if you have multiple tarps, how you overlap. starting from the bottom and moving up so that you're overlapping this way. so, rain running down doesn't slide under your tarp. >> right. >> and the same technique we did over here, as silly as it may sound, wrapping the end of that blue tarp with your board and then securing that if you can underneath, if you have to

on top is fine. but making sure that you don't have an area where the wind is going to get under and bill owe that tarp. >> the wind can rip it right off. >> and then you're back up there again. >> let's go inside and check out what we can do inside. >> old fun. here we go. >> so, ben, i see you have nails, universal tool right here. >> man's best friend. duct tape. let me show you a couple things we can use this for after an earthquake. this window right here, because it's off kilter, we have open seams all along. i have a lot of air coming through. i want to stay comfortable at night. i want to keep that air out. it's as simple as that, all the way around. >> excellent. >> now i don't have any air coming in. let's say this one is one that would annoy me. everything is a little off. my doors won't stay closed. i take a piece of my favorite duct tape here, close it up. and at least it will stay out of my way when i'm trying to live throughout my day. if we're not talking about

pressurized water, we're talking about just the drain, sometimes they're going to get a crack here. >> right, sure. >> and you're going to get a leak. duct tape around that is going to help us get through until we can get a plumber out and get that fixed as well. let's say we only have electricity in one room, so we're running extension cords across the house. if i'm going to run an extension cord from one room to the other, i don't want kids tripping on it. i don't want to trippon it. i take my trusty duct tape, tape it to the floor, and i don't have to worry about it getting kicked. >> great, great. look at this. let's look at the duct tape here because we see a big -- >> yes. in the event of an earthquake, i don't think we're going to have too many -- too much debris that's safe to put into a plastic bag, even as strong as it might be. these are called vice bags. this is what they use to put rice and things when they ship it. this is something where i take my glass, i can take broken pieces of wood, i can take anything sharp and fill it. and it's not going to puncture and come out.

it's not going to fall all over the floor. i've not going to have it sticking out, maybe scratch myself, cut myself or anything like that. these are a great thing to have. >> you have a little go-to box for emergencies. that's great. thanks very much for joining us, ben. it's really been interesting. and i want to thank you all for joining us here at the spur urban center. and we'll see you again
