[applause] >> congratulations. >> thank you, lily, congratulations. >> thank you, commissioners. >> is there any public comment on the president's announcement? seeing none, then our next item is item 3, general public

comment. we'll take public comment on the matters within the jurisdiction which are not part of this agenda. we have one caller, john. >> sorry, lily was handing off the computer. >> no problem. caller 4159, you're unmuted. >> this is me, kevin o'connor, am i unmuted? >> good morning, thank you. members of the b.i.c. thank you for the opportunity to share my story and seek resolution in arabance with of our construction permit for our home. my name is kevin o'connor i'm a fourth generation san franciscan and speaking on behalf of myself and my 87-year-old retired

teacher, marilyn james, who is in hospice care. back in december 2017, we applied for a permit to remodel and expand our home. a street both of us were raised on. now three years later, we're farther from issuance than we were when we applied. we're in limbo as every time we achieve approval, he has more tasks. in fact, not only does he admit he can't get it done soon, he won't even explain what needs to be done. i still to this day have not received any other answers. at this point, patience is not the issue. the countless delays have -- my mother's savings of hundreds of thousands of dollars as the

neighborhood nuisance and liability. and that is why i appeal to you. my questions are. number one, why is our permit delayed while identical permit was issued? why are the new requirements -- what are the new requirements and why were they added? >> why is d.b.i. declaring -- when it was -- wasn't required for 159 meryeta . and number four, why still no work order in place even though i have other valid permits like exterior. and why has no one answered my previous request to remove the order like the failing safety fence? and then why did d.b.i. issue us an n.o.d. even though i had not

built retaining walls. the policy dictates that this be treated -- >> try to wrap up. >> -- in fact, many of the actions -- i bottom line i want to thank all of you for what has been done and chief inspector, i appreciate all the help, but have no one to turn to, so please help. thank you very much. sorry i went so fast. >> thank you, caller. appreciate your comments. >> this is commissioner clinch. i just want to state for the record that mr. o'connor did reach out to me. i basically reminded him -- explained to him that the only real way i could help him as commissioner and as a -- if he wanted to get the -- if he wanted to state his case to the commission in public comment. i want to say that for the record. >> thank you. are there any further callers?

seeing none, next item is item 4. commissioner's questions and matters. a. inquiries to staff. at this time commissioners may make inquiries to staff regarding various documents, policies, practices and procedures which are of interest to the commission. and just as a reminder, before we get to this item, if you aren't speaking, if you could mute yourself. members of the public, again, i'm sorry, we are meeting remotely. if you are listening and you would like to call in, the call in number is 1-415-655-0001. access code, 146 145 0470. and to raise your hand for public comment on a specific agenda item, press star 3 when

prompted by the meeting moderator. thank you. and then back to president mccarthy. >> president mccarthy: secretary, i guess commissioner moss, vice president moss, has any comments? >> vice president moss: no comment at this time. >> commissioner alexander-tut: is chief housing inspector -- [indiscernible] >> secretary: i don't see him on the call. yes, i do. yes, i do see him on the call. >> president mccarthy: yes. >> commissioner alexander-tut: i wanted to ask about -- as it's getting colder, specifically in the housing code section, 204 violation, it specifically calls out fire hot water and heat as the possibility of a misdemeanor or infraction. you know for failing to -- for

outstanding violations. and i just wanted to ask for your response to what is the department's procedure for as we're getting to the colder months and the rainy months, for the heating ordinance? >> before i answer, i'd like this acknowledge commissioner alexander-tut, happy birthday? >> commissioner alexander-tut: thank you [laughter]. >> yes. we enforce the heat ordinance when we're in buildings to check boilers. make sure that the time clock is properly set.

within 24 hours. we do that even under the code of restrictions. an essential violation allegation that we respond to in 24 hours. i don't know if we have candidates for the criminal citation right now. there is one that we're looking at. and you know, i wanted to acknowledge your help in helping us to connect with the new district attorney during the really early days of the covid emergency when we were able to use the criminal citation power to enforce the health order, the s.r.o.s, where christina dang has been doing some of her work. i really helped turn around the situation both with a number of s.r.o. hotels, and there was another one.

we saw a really miraculous turnaround with some of those. and we couldn't have done it without your help. so thank you. >> thank you. and just to clarify. so you do a citation, you respond to a complaint, you issue the citation and then at what point -- i'm just -- i'm curious about this enforcement power you have under section 204. at what point does it become -- you know -- it seems like you look at director's hearings. you know, we hear penalties from the department. what is the difference between those actions and misdemeanors and infractions? can they coincide? can you just explain how those three things interact?

>> well, it's an important tool. it's a tool that i was involved in helping to develop in the 90s with supervisor roberta. if anybody remembers when she was a member. a lot of people in the community and myself and the supervisor had a series of meetings where we felt a criminal citation would make the property owner, the landlord take the violation more seriously. so the department -- it was kind of a trial and error process. when you saw an owner that was not going to comply, that's when you used that. we didn't have much luck using it, because it ended up in the hall of justice with judges who

see more difficult -- aren't really interested in the housing code violations issue, so they got tossed. but we met with the district attorney and renewed that tool. it has helped a lot. there is a building with a fire exit issue. we've been discussing it. and see if that would be a good candidate for using that tool. we've talked to a couple different people at the district attorney's office. so we talked to one person originally. we found another person that helped us move on. so that's where we're at right now. >> commissioner alexander-tut: thank you. that's all my questions. thank you, president. >> president mccarthy: thank you, commissioner. i do agree with you.

i know you will see some of these cases coming up, particularly with the heat and the cold coming in. turnaround time to get the boilers up and running was the big one we used to come across. but you know, hopefully every landlord will be doing the right thing. okay. commissioner clinch? >> commissioner clinch: nothing for me, thank you. >> president mccarthy: commissioner jacobo. >> commissioner jacobo: i wanted to thank commissioner tut for bringing that up and wish her happy birthday again, but no, nothing else for me thank you. >> commissioner tam: -- >> it doesn't look like he has

comments. >> commissioner tam: i had technical difficulties. thank you. >> president mccarthy: okay. madame secretary, no public comment on that? >> secretary: all right. so the next item is 4b, future meetings agendas. at this time the commission may discuss and take action to set the date of a special meeting and/or determine those items that could be placed on the agenda of the next meeting and the other future meetings. our next meeting is december 16. >> president mccarthy: so december 16, if that's okay with everybody. i always check in. do we have enough for quorum? is there anybody -- i'll open the floor. is there anybody who would not be here? >> okay. i'll reach out again as it gets closer. >> president mccarthy: yeah, and

obviously, if anyone has action item, for special meeting between now and then to let you know. >> okay. >> through the chair, if i could say that -- not a question about the next meeting. i need to say that i need to leave at 1:00. does that affect the quorum? >> i do believe we're going to be okay. i think we're going to be out of here by 12:30. i've been trying to keep it light fort holidays, thanksgiving, christmas. i'll hit you heavy in january, so don't be making any appointments then. [laughter] >> secretary: any public comment on 4a or b? seeing none, item 5. update regarding d.b.i.'s initiatives to accelerate permit processing during the health crisis. >> president mccarthy: interim director, thank you. >> hi. sonya, can i share my screen?

>> secretary: sure. >> president mccarthy: justine, sorry, is doing the presentation. thank you. good morning, president and commissioners. this is the department of building inspection. and in my presentation this morning, i'll provide an update on our permit services and our initiative to heat up the permitting -- speed up the permitting process. quick recap. our current permit processes, we've converted all over-the-counter permits, paper, as well as the in-house review, from the digital system. we have auto generated permits,

reroofing permits. people go online and pull those permits down. we have a system to expedite any emergency permits. and we continue to use the electronic plan review. we just want the accessory dwelling units, which i'll talk about more later in the presentation. and we still take in-house review. we're still processing in-house review permits that were already submitted electronically and we're taking permits for 100 affordable housing and development agreement projects. our in-person over-the-counter services we continue to do our note plan drop-in service from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 monday through friday. the volume fluctuates, but we

average two a day in the morning. the fire takes in the fire-only permits down on the first floor of the building. and from 9:30 to 3:30 p.m., customers can drop off over the counter permits am indications. that's -- applications. that's by appointment only. our numbers are tracking about the same as what i reported last month. pre-covid, before march of this year, we were issuing about 110 permits a day. and last month we issued approximately 100 permits a day. we're just below our pre-covid numbers and continuing to look at ways that we can increase the number of permits we're issuing per day. we also issue on average about 130 trade permits a day, and

those are the electrical, mechanical, plumbing, boiler permits that are on our online system. so addressing some of the permitting challenges and the initiatives that we've implemented over the past few months. we continue to work on technology improvements and work flow improvements to streamline the digital processing system. [please stand by]

>> we are hiring an executive level permit services administrator. we have finished the interview process for that. we have chosen a candidate going through the background check process. we hope to have him on board in the next few weeks, and we continue to add permits tech. we are helping with that administrative work with possessing permits. we continue to offer over time to the staff so we can continue to work through the backlog. we don't have much of a backlog

right now in house because of the way we are manning the appointment system. we offer over time to folks making sure those are moving efficiently. we have partnered with other permitting agencies. the fire department, we finished the training so they are managing the intake of the fire only permits and working with planning to process a.d.u. permits through electronic plan review that went live on november 2. on november 2 when this went live, the planning department got about three dozen permit applications. that is now up to around 50. they are again, you know, this is a pilot to relaunch the electronic plan review process

so we can continue to make improvements to that and then we will scale that up in the coming months. over-the-counter with plans appointments. since we started taking pointments for customers to come in and drop off the applications after a few weeks the wait times for that started to get longer and longer. that became a big point for customers. what i talked about last month we were going to actively begin to manage that appointment process and the appointment list and work thruways to speed that up and get people in here sooner. one of the things we did was to add appointments. we expanded capacity for the number of permit applications we

take in every day. starting on november 2, we added six appointments that week per day. we went from 24 a day to 30 appointments per day. next week we added 12 appointments per day. that is what we are going to do going forward. now we have 36 appointments per day. customers can bring in two permit applications. that is averaging around 60 permit applications per day we are taking in. the way we added capacity was not by just adding more appointments per day but by launching await list. we did an analysis of who had appointments. there were some customers banking appointments with dozens of apappointments on the books over the next several weeks.

to make it more fair, we set up await list system so people can move up in line. if you already have an appointment in the next few weeks, you are okay. for the people who are waiting two or three months, we wanted to set up away for those people to move up and make sure it was distributed equitably. in the first two weeks when we lunched the wait list we received 313 eligible wait list requests and by eligible i am talking about people who didn't already have an appointment in the next few weeks. all 313 customers were offered an appointment in the next three weeks, and those customers moved up an average of 77 days or two and a half months. it was a big impact for a lot of these customers. this is just an explanation what

the rules are around that wait list. again, we set these rules up to make sure that those are being distributed fairly. if somebody has an appointment in the next two weeks we want somebody else to get a chance to come in. i also want to give an update on the electronic plan review. over the last few months we were talking about when we launched the electronic plan review and closclosed to the public we recd thousands of permit applications. since april 8th, we received 5356 permit applications. through an amazing effort, our staff has gotten through every single one of those permit applications, and done the initial possessing. by initial possessing that means that they have reviewed the

application, assigned the permit application number, opened up the blue beam session and routed the permit application to plan checkers. at least 210 permits have been -- 2100 are issued, 400 approved and waiting to pay, several thousand are being reviewed by plan checkers. d.b.i. and partnering permitting departments fire or public works. 500 waiting for customer response. maybe the application was not complete. then about 1300 were not valid. that means either that application was not completed accurately. it was not some of them were

duplicates, some converted to paper, some were applications of the applicant deleted or canceled, but really proud of our staff for the amazing amount of hard work that went into getting through every one of those 5356 permit applications. i want to talk about the stakeholder and customer engagement. we have been busy over the last month reaching customers to explain service changing and permitting and giving people an opportunity to give feedback how to do things better or differently. we hosted customer update and q and a webinair friday, october 23. we had 2 0 people participate in -- 200 people participate. on october 28 we launched a new public advisory forum.

this is a reformatted public advisory committee. we wanted that to be open to everyone rather than a certain subset of people. we had about 75 people who participated in that. there was a lot of great engagement and ideas. we participated in stakeholder meetings with the san francisco housing action coalition. earlier this week the building owners management with 90 people attending that. we regularly send e-mail updates to our customers. over the next month we are going to focus on continuing to work on technology and process improvements bringing on board the chief administrative officer procurement services. fingers crossed it will go smoothly. next is reviewing in house

renewal process. how we handle revisions, especially for projects that are actively under construction and making sure that those wait times are transparent. some of the feedback is that people don't know how long the wait time is for when their project will go through intake. i want to make improvements to make sure those people are fully informed when how that process is going. before i close i want to thank the many members of the staff who face a huge workload and are working over time. also to serve customers. you know how critical our work is to economic recovery of the city, and our staff has really stepped up. thanks to all of you commissioners for your support as we work through these challenges.

that concludes my presentation. thank you. >> thank you for the update. i would like to open up to public comment and commissioners could weigh in if there is anybody in line for public comment. >> one caller for public comment. >> caller. >> thank you again, this is kevin o'connor. that was impressive what i just heard. over the last few years i have been there daily and i have met so many incredible people, made friends and such dedication. i felt they were a little strong

by old policy not going forward. it is such a great experience. when you go there and find out it is so difficult to work on that user end. it seemed like every concern i had moving forward were addressed in the presentation. i want to commend you and tell you that i really appreciate your efforts. thank you very much. merry christmas. happy holidays. >> thank you. if there is no further public comment? >> there are no more callers in can queue. >> vice president, please. >> i want to thank staff for all of the great work. it is sometimes a thankless job, we all know. you do incredible work. i am happy to hear about the electronic approvals. one thing i would like us to

take a step back when we have time when we can breath down the road. what changes came about because of covid? what did we have to do quicker because of covid that perhaps should stay around this terms of moving forward in the post-pandemic world. i do think that the electronic approval to streamline and housing. i think some lemonade can be made from the lemons of 2020. i commend the staff again. thank you. >> thank you, commissioner, for your comments. >> i just want to thank the staff. impressed by the progress that is made month-to-month. especially the report and the breakdown of the permits and

what is happening was very helpful. 24% not valid did make me nervous. when you explained it, it did make some sense. my support for your work and your leadership. >> thank you, commissioner. >> nothing for me, thank you. >> commissionerqua kobe, please. >> i want to thank you for the presentation and just for the pandemic we haven't experienced leadership positions or the work we have done through pandem hics. this is impacting every sector of the society. thank you for your leadership. i appreciate the presentation

and move the ball forward to all make the things we need to have happen for our city. thank you. >> thank you, commissioner. >> i want to echo what my fellow commissioners said. i want to wish everybody happy thanksgiving. >> once again, i echo the comments. christine, thank you so much and to all of the team. i really, really understand and realize the work that had to be done. the backlog was that ugly backlog work was coming at you and hard for you to decipher what was and wasn't and you did it. i really do commend all of the people who worked on this and i am curious, christine.

these are really good data to be shared with the stakeholders to make the phone calls. what are we doing to send this out to let them know the progress that has been achieved by your staff? >> we hosted the webinair and go to the meetings when invited. we don't say no. >> i think if you add it all up it is about more like 400 with all of the events. >> i am still getting calls and i am shocked how misinformed people are on the progress down there. when i get in and question them, it doesn't add up. i am more confident now that we

have this work. i am bullish about getting out there to make sure everybody gets informed. i am getting less and less calls, which is good. when do you hope to have the chief officer on the ground january this year. >> i can speak to that, commissioners. he just went through the fingerprinting process. that normally takes a couple or a few weeks. we hope that person can be on board by the first week of december. that is wha what is our goal. >> we will leave him alone to january. thank you for that. otherwise thank you for the

update, folks. it is a very good thanksgiving outcoming. we are looking forward to being in good shape by january of next year. thanks again, staff, for all of your work and everybody associated with putting this together and interim director for your leadership. thank you. >> is there any public comment on item 5? >> no. >> seeing none. next is item 6. update on the single room occupancy program regarding covid-19 actions. >> good morning. we have a member of our team from housing christina dang doing work in chinatown to

enforce the health order for covid safety. she is still at the covid command center day in and day out. it is a thankless task. she is doing excellent work. we have our team in the tenderloin in south market inspecting the inspectors barber, chris, rob and there are two supervisors who are incredibly busy fielding calls, investigating complaints. there are all types of issues. incredibly busy and difficult work and circumstances. we are holding our own, i think, in that sense. november 1st was the deadline for the annual admissions

report. the department maintains that from every residential hotel regarding the hotel converting ordinance. there are a couple supervisors on the board interested in the reports on a regular basis. we collect from all 500 of these follofolks. hopefully not too many to get the report but it is important and people are interested in it. the collaboratives. a lot of good issues regarding sros. the conversation yesterday was a multi-million dollar report on sros and homelessness published on the coalition on homelessness website. an oversight committee is

established for prop c from last year which was the new funding for the programs to help people. this are expecting assistance from the federal and state level so people can make their rent. a few outliers there is not an exodus from the sro like we have seen around town. they are mostly pretty full. that is the report on the sros. >> commissioners. >> thank you. >> any public comment be on item 6? >> no public comment. >> next is item 7.

director's report. a. update on the d.b.i.'s finances. >> good morning, commissioners, deputy director of building inspection. i will share the october 23, monthly report. this is the october monthly report. it includes revenues for july 2020 through october 2020. i will take a couple minutes to go over the highlights. on the revenues we are still projected t to have a surplus, which is good news. the budget is based on the last two months in the last fiscal

year. march, april, may. they are conservative how the things are going now we are collecting more than anticipated. that is good news. on the second page when we compare year-over-year last year at this time versus this year, that is when you see the huge drop. last year we collected $25.7 million in revenues from july through october. now we are at $13.2 million. you can see these revenues primarily because of the major revenues which is the building permits we reduced they are down a lot. the building permit data is reflected in the valuations as well as the number of permits. you can see that basically last year we had issued 13,000 -- almost 14,000 permits.

the valuation is going down by 60%. on the expenditure side we don't make any projections this early because the budget is so new. we will probably do the actual expenditure projects after december. we wait six months. i am happy to answer any questions. >> no comments at this time. >> commissioner taout. >> no comments. >> commissioner consent. >> nothing. >> commissioner. >> nothing at this time. >> commissioner. >> no comment. >> the 60%. were you expecting that? i know you are reading tea leafs

is that a bigger jump than you thought the $875,000? >> actually there really. [ inaudible ] the revenues are one thing and the value situation. really what this building permit data helps explain where we are with the revenues. it is calling to make a projection on what we believed the valuation would be. >> would you interpret it the smaller projects are going through and larger projects are coming down? is that the interpretation? >> yes. that is the interpretation. if you look at even 5 million to 50 million.

last year 15 now 7. what is happens is that the valuation the number of permits on the first chart are going down as well as valuations. both of them are happening simultaneously. we have seen a lot of over-the-counter. a lot of over-the-counter permits are coming in. the larger projects are reduced. every single valuation permits are reduced. >> that impacted the fees there? >> yes. >> that is the money we need? >> right. the larger evaluations when we get to the checking down $5.9 million and the building permits are the largest revenues

based on valuation. >> commissioners that is what we have got to watch here. thank you as always for breaking down the numbers. next month we will talk again. >> thank you. we are still on the same item. director's report. update on major projects. >> good morning again, commissioners, this is the update on major projects. there has been a .74%en crease in october over september in total construction valuation. also 1% increase in number of units that came in line in october over september.

implementation date so we have a bit more time to get everything in place for that. supervisor peskin's ordinance renewing the shelter requiring building owners to provide replacement power and water if shut down for construction work was introduced last month is pending in land use committee. we are keeping an eye on that. the flued plain management ordinance was approved by the mayor last week. we are working to impact this for buildings in the fema flood hazard zone. it is about 66 existing buildings and 200 parcels. we are working on the implementation for that. supervisor safai's
