supervisor walton we had two meetings on this i have and feeling i know what you're questions are related to perhaps not the $6 million but the $8 million will be used but i wanted to to the board um, that thanks foot leadership of um, supervisor chan and the great work by the elective a lot analyst we added language in both the contracts that was, you know, is an attachment to the resolution. as well as instructions for dcyf not future that requires them to be much clearer than they've been up at the point about outcomes that they expect for each grant as well as the methods they'll

sclaelt whether or not this took place i want my colleagues to know we are very meticulously and asked my partner in so much of this work supervisor melgar to be vigilant about all succeed funds and legal last analyst to be diligent about the future allocations to the student success fund we had a long discussion in committee and what i would assume you want to talk to dcyf right now is this fund was not meant to cover the many problems that is school district has currently with that budget and with the operation. this grant this money was meant

specifically to address academic achievement that is thoroughly lacking in many, many schools and amongst students throughout the district and social this is a crisis not only for san francisco children and young people but all over the country the intrfrjz that's not the purpose of this funding so i have questions about that $8 million that was announced by the mayor i know supervisor safai does and looking forward to having this conversations with the give you million the funding for this year not last year that was $89 million from last year, we put a lot of checks and balances in the contract and language to make

sure that money is well opponent can't afford this is a mask investment isn't city and county of san francisco is making in your children i thank the voters of for doing that our job to watch it like hawks and make sure we actually move the needle on academic achievement we are doing it in the pilot map program we initiated - we pretty raised math cores among african-american and latino-american children that's the progress we need to see and deserve i wanted to make that point before we have more discussion on this item. >> supervisor walton would you like to wait for a dcyf. >> please but want to make a

statement thank you for presenting and thank you, supervisor ronen for the dissolution that's it's a difficult time the district is lacking transparency and creating anxieties with their plans with the future and closed-door meetings and not up front but come to us and continue to ask for money from the city and county we don't know which schools been eliminated or happening with the future of district for us to be giving the district any money during this time i think slaps in the face of parents and communities that's why i'm going to ask pointed questions who what resources we are talking about and right the la report

and not intend not to support this item today but mostly certainly want to hear the answers not voted on to subsidies school district but to improve the outcomes for the students in the district to make sure we will be anymore initiative with the programs so we can address the gaps in achievement and move forward to subsidies district operations frankly is going backwards not helpful to the district because of state they're if i want to bring that up and definitely have several questions around this item and just around we were going to be doing with the resources that's why. >> thank you commissioner walton i'm informed that maria is on their way why not circle

item item item item item item persons from knowingly being present at a vehicle sideshow or preparations for such a sideshow for purposes of participating in the vehicle certain conditions sell the vehicles; and 6) make violations of these provisions misdemeanor, subject to imprisonment and/or fine. president peskin thank

you, supervisor preston thank you, president peskin i want to address this item colleagues taken a long look at the ordinance if appear to be doing anything but clarifying the behavior under state law and i want to remind folks that is illegal to aid illegal conduct in san francisco. so is he very hard the time through trying to be charitable with that ordinance and see anything other than an election year public issue and not only because it do anything like i said, it is all right. illegal but inaccurately references inaccurate about the san francisco police department and extra sideshows the press -

my hope the finding at minimum will be amended today or before the second reading i'll leave that up to the co-sponsor and like i understand the desire to as the need to address sideshow which are dangerous in the community and push for the infrastructure structures that change and defer the youth for sideshow and also push for the law enforcement in-laws that exist on the books not just the new ones but the governor in welcome back on this topic and, you know, those bills include bills to make it easier to to vehicles to block transverse for sideshow and other enforcement

so um, i got to is i don't really see any benefits from this ordinances but no real harm if it either happy to support it today um, because i understand it is serious issue and for colleagues that more activity in their district it is important to act i'll be supporting b it but i don't think it has any real impact. >> thank you supervisor preston and supervisor safai i want to add on to the supervisors point with the legislation announced we had acquired after one of the large sideshow on embarcadero we inquired because legislation i led a few years asking for data and the police department to update us on the number of

vehicles that are in sideshow the number in 2021, 2022 have gone occupy explicitly had a sideshow abatement and it is critiqued but, however, in 2023, the number dropped to just 5. and year-to-date the actual number was 5 or 6. the information that was presented in the press release that came up in the mayor's office describing other actions not related to the sideshows in any way. so i think what is important to notice we actually have some strong laws on the books they're endorsed aggressively with all the technology we approved, can be done in a aggregate margin you wake up in the morning the cars

are gone a sideshow that is the message to be sent i'm sure legislation will do anything at all to be honest when i i'll support it but like 100 percent to be correct that's presented and the information and the department to be aggressive and actually enforcing the existing laws for sideshows that is had an affected by. so those are any thoughts. thank you. >> president peskin. >> thank you, president peskin i want to reiterate supervisor safai and i often little board i support the legislation to correct the sideshows a couple of years ago xhshgdz had our way we'll repository the cars - but

had to apply with state law and with sideshow legislation one of the things that concerns me about the legislation the fact that bye, bye stands would be held accountable and if you're but i get concerned about folks overzealous in sideshows and caught up geographically in an area and make sure that we realize the issues that can come from being overzealous someone maybe in the area i want to make

sure that that um, enforcement understands that but again to president peskin and supervisor safai point i'll support it make a clear stance on highway we look at sideshows but if we enforce the current laws we already have thank you, president peskin. >> thank you supervisor dorsey and speak to this as a co-sponsor on the ballot no electoral stake i have in it i want to say i do think that is value to clarifying some of the motion and there is a substantive improvement can be made. to me will make a difference to enable the

district attorney's office but share the frustrations of benefits that the colleagues maybe going to sacramento to take a roll in state legislature will give local improvement more authorities to use this as my colleague supervisor walton mentioned to con stat the city for those who obstruct many of the issues we face with that. but this stuff is no joke. in the past weekend in sacramento too young people lost their lives in a shooting with a sideshow. there is also been in northern california instances of people been seriously injured and killed in this kind of lawlessness which i was at the police department two years i

was there an instance i think 10 vehicles that were um, excited and of the 10 individuals there were all been 18 and 23 not experienced drivers one from san francisco and sending a strong message that san francisco is not playground for dangerous behavior is important but i understand the frustration and hope the california lyric gives us room to maneuver. >> approach this issue. thank you. >> seeing no other names on the roster, it feels to me like we are going to pass this. >> same house, same call. but asking that on the second reading we reflect finding that are true and accurate and supportive. is that the sense of

the body and to the mayor's office? can we get to the bottom of that and make appropriate amendments didn't sound like we're delaying negative impact crucial it seems to me a wide belief that this is more perform active than real. >> i'm okay with the mayor's office yes. >> all right. take this. >> same house, same call. on the first reading (gavel) before we go to our 2:30 special order circle back to item 12 because dcyf i'm sorry item 11 and we have a very rare mid board meeting closed session. to supervisor walton. >> thank you very much. president peskin and thank you, director sue and directors for being here this in the afternoon

my frustration i discussed them earlier but have questions certainly not directed at the department of children, youth & their families but more so about the lack of trust in the unified school district and took place parallel over the last 6 months to a year. my first question for fiscal year fiscal year 2024/25 have an allocation of $35 million but today how 26 plus million dollar is allocated was the process for $8 million for technical assistance? >> thank you um, commissioner - sorry commissioner asianian-williams supervisor walton for the question. >> in fiscal year 2024-2025 the year we're now we have allocated the $26 million

allocated to us. $26 million to the school district and several buckets for the school district to be utilizing one is direct funding for [off mic.] >> one is direct funding for um, school innovation and one to support schools for innovation projects and one for the district. one is to support the district on efforts. there is a small portion of $35 million will go to um, will stay at dcyf people will use to support um, second assistance and supports for the school district. and then, of course, to provide any of the data analysis support. >> so what that is is

dedication for the $35 million that is in in front of you today. >> and director sue had safeguards in place for the innovation funds go to the schools for children with the greatest needs and who makes that decision. >> dcyf makes that decision the schools and what kind of programs and activities for the schools to use the dollars for. the performance measures and okay measures you're asking for has actually been invested and the budget and finance committee with um - and actually has been developed in conjunction with supervisor ronen over the last two weeks we're putting in more stringent language how we expect

them to report back to us what they did with the dollars and to which target populations they need the dollars for. >> how can we release the funding what we don't know with the complete school portfolio the district has given us no indication and no closed-door conversations i assume potentially that some of the schools maybe in danger or on the list that schools can be supported by the resources how can when i make a decision like that? >> so fire hydrant to the $35 million is used to support 58 schools and those schools need it the most schools have um, that met all of our risk

metrics and our target population mefbz so for the most part we will have not received in the school district a list of school closures or proposed closures. i will say that that is important for us to put the dollars approve them now there are programs that our children need now. support and mass support and some schools proposing to use those dollars to central more health specialists and nurses those are needs now. >> in terms of moving forward into the future we can have those conversations how that would look like but until that time we building that those dollars need to be released now. >> you didn't answer any

question about it we didn't approve those resources today. i guess what safeguards do we have in place or how will we address the fact if some of the schools and resources we approve today maybe going into the direction those schools maybe closed or no existing anymore. >> our chief of staff resources is spending a lot of time working with the school community and nonprofits to think through what will it will look like when we photo which schools are closing and the welcoming schools and how to use the dollars to support the community and the families. okay. >> chief of staff. thank you. >> supervisor walton what

we're going to be doing once the schools we go to analyze bpa what are the gaps and needs for closing the schools and welcoming schools and making sure those resources and services are in place at the welcoming schools as dr. sue said we don't know what schools are closing were in 2024-2025 not knowing we can - we know plenty of needs so as we garner more buildings make sure that the students the families, the faculty and admin and cbos are all working collaborating to transition that that might look like the core location closures have to wait and see when

communities are effected and schools and resources and services were at the schools for folks to submit and figure out understand where those families will be going to figure out how those glrz follow the kids and families and what is the best fit 100 percent of those dollars can go to the school to support whatever that looks like and until we have more information we can't move forward but we're going to move forward with the schools we're identified because were the highest schools and mayor, those communities plans created are able to be carried out and the capacity building for every school around just how to implement that plan as well as if that school for and against happens to the school there is port to help them transition what that looks like

we put those items in place and what will happen. >> to a degree, just for lack of better term somehow remnants of a blind check and the reason i say that is i 100 percent you know what in the district is being transparent and 100 percent building there are people in leadership that know what direction they want to go and schools they want to merge so it is disheartening to put this city in the situation the resources are available and, maximize our um, if we had information and the school bond is on the ballots they're guaranteeing that resources will not go to the school are that are on the chopping block how

can they guarantee if they don't know what schools are on the chopping block i appreciate you saying well the resources are going and some of the thoughts behind what we'll do but some of the schools will receive the resources are actually not schools what that looks like and the last thing initially resources in per charter should be evaluated and receive in the report the information and data from the district on what has been guaranteed? >> supervisor walton this will be the first that year the school will have access to those plans we we receive the students success fund a small amount $11 million where we um,

allocated to schools we made available to schools for entering purposes the schools used those dollars to put in a new alarm system in the schools or to um, oh, my goodness safety and support for lunch and supported some of the providers before school care. so that was the first year of the students success finds those activities are trackable and we have them denounced the second year where we are now. the allocations of those dollars directly go to the schools so the communities can start moving on bringing in the specialists for additional support that our highest children in the school district needs. >> address school support this

is what the voters support those types of support that is a subsidized issue. >> there is a edition in the chapter that supervisor ronen wrote in that allows the planting their core funding core staff with our dollars. >> thank you so much. appreciate you both. >> thank you supervisor safai. >> we're going to talk about that next week billions the ad on to supervisor walton point i hear what you're saying but the $6.6 million to create the readiness grant for those who could have sited coordinators that is actively physically

investing in people for the capacity of the school and ultimately you look at the list, you know, a lot of rumors flying around schools are receiving readiness grants are some of the ones targeted for shutdowns it does that make sense? to me and i want to make sure the funds go to the right place for the students and designed to be added to make sure that we are doing success in those particular schools hoourt the most but some to structures to support the school models we spent millions of on something not going to go to the kids you can't have multiple positions for the multiple schools it doesn't make sense. to move quicker when the school district will give us a complete - i can

see moving some of the this but it doesn't make sense. to move all this money and the other parts initiatives are specific design on this money. and ultimately might not ago to this because schools are potentially going to be the ones that no longer going to be there or my merge i don't know how you transfer that without knowing the bits of information. >> thank you supervisor safai i think for the most part schools are a proposal to us. >> 100 percent. >> and at the worked on it and the school community worked on that that's the requirement of the charter. >> (multiple voices). >> parents and teachers, port staff and leadership at the

schools came together and vote e wrote and proposal with those dollars we're going to do xwyz and could be from building our students reading capacity. >> right. >> and. >> (multiple voices.) >> and right that's (laughter) you can take with you, of course, but i mean part of the reason we did the success fund was so many times there are these terminating grants for the xyz foundations a lot of infrastructure passing is built up and the they'll positions leave and the school is left holding the baggy know that was intended why we did what we did for 18 years to make sure once we built that 70 infrastructure would be sustained over the next 15 years. but what we've been

consolidation hanging over our heads i mean do you think that is wise for - like staffing positions and otherwise ultimately not being there in the future. >> xhvrjdz i support our children and . >> that's not what i asked this is not a political thing but are you committing a position that will not be a position there no more? >> of course, i want to invest in positions you through a grants we're giving to the schools will be a reading specialist for math or a par and not um - it's, you know, those are people and staffing that the school and the community needs right now. i 100 percent agree

that we need to have another conversation when we see the closure legislators; right? and need to add the school district to make sure that their closure list has a plan that includes transitioning and supporting our families to transition whatever it is they're going to and i want to commit to this body i'm willing to come back and share with you what i know from the - and the plan that i think supervisor walton is asking we need to pit this together a lot of dollars over to the school district. >> the particular one i'm talking about is the readiness grant it is worth million the design for the sites to meet the eligibility for student success fund at the end of the grant period community school

coordinator in place. that's not a reading specialist not a math specialist an important element what we created in the success fund. >> (multiple voices.) >> and so just to for your question yes, we don't know which schools are closing but if it school didn't close we can without creating the infrastructure that school needs to thrive this is what we required to at the end of two years have a plan how they're going to move toward with the goals and guardrails and as well as have identified a community school coordinator didn't mean they have to hired them yet or be on the board but have identified and be ready to move forward because community coordinators can be district

staff, they can be beacon directors or to the a school position. so we're talking about position for that school community coordinator not an sfusd transition several schools under the implementation grant communities coordinator is the beacon director or site director taken on that so not necessarily co-related with the position and so to answer your question i like to say it is taking a gamble on the school will close or maybe not and make sure they are ready to apply for a larger grant that is the education grant ready - have absolutely nothing they're like bear minimum don't know what to do to provide the support to help them get to the point to identify as

a full communicated this is where we want to go and the plan we have support ever activist and we know we'll have money to support the position that will help coordinate they don't need to hire one this year but by the end of second year have this community school coordinator and now ready to move forward. >> maybe in the la report supervisor safai and mean this is discussed in committee twice and have a 2:30 special order we have i think that choices. one is we can continue this after the special order and send that back to committee or call the question right now those are the that choices but we have to move on at the committee was

continued twice. >> supervisor ronen last words. >> i wanted to say a whole discussion that is happening with the school district and reveal on the date they promised to reveal the mandate that was absolutely a slap in the face to san francisco families i want to thank director sue and chief of staff for you all have been hvrnl this got it right can't assume the schools will close we are doing everything we can to support the achievement of the kids that's what we have to do unless we know otherwise and condition it keeps us in the dark about the future of schools i'm assuming supervisor walton you know they know what schools they're closing so we can do planning by what we need to do

and protect the kids thank you very much for your work and to point a finer point on it with regards to the item behind the questions you're hearing that was written been in the local newspapers on record september 15th and september 16th the president of the board of supervisors got an e-mail from the school district announcing what had been done the previous day a that's where we are. >> same house, same call. the resolution is adopted madam clerk read item left next speak.

the appellant will have that minutes for rebuttal right j r representing the appellant. >> misrepresent we are setting the timer for 10 minutes. >> thank you, madam clerk >>

it's already we're on now all right. i apologize my name is j r with the neighborhood association and the reverse you general plan for the property project because the planning department failed to do an adequate review of the california environmental quality act informs about the environmental impacts provided allergies the ceqa reviews failed allowing the review to allow the general plan errors and omissions. next slide, please. the proposed project is biotechnology across the street in the park rec and park open space and two large part time

apartment building the box and two other schools one 1,000 feet. next slide, please. the project otherwise consistent with the plan the eir requires a additional environmental impact report for the site that were not analyzed in the eir but determining the mitigation can't be done without awning environmental impact report and justify the general plan based on consistency with the development as under the central waterfront plan first, the gpa for the purpose of environmental analysis ceqa requires a project deposition the gp fails to describe that has the definition the laboratory has survive and

non-life sciences and here on accurate description for the eir not fully analyzed by the technology as the site in addition receiving to future regulations and in other words the description was for the affiliated as required by the ceqa guidelines and dp failed to implement the eir back a few slides to the area. um, the eir that the air quality that the planning department shall require at a minimum a site safer to identify environmental one 1,000 feet that is the project site prior to the first project approval action and includes children and other folks help out some exposure of

air pollution. now that language is clear this is done prior to the first project and that safer identifying the uses will have have an potential project to make sure that the air quality have prevented prior to the ceqa and comply the eir requirement to identify the standards and other uses um, means that these sense of uses doesn't have a recourse that is prepared the planned analysis is done and simply this department proposed mitigation is not consistent with the planned eir and the shadow analysis to the dogpatch

if a project is under the shadow ordinance or if a project under ceqa casts a shadow that is adversely effected that was on the final report the shadow analysis for the park and the ceqa analysis for the dogpatch a small open space are experienced shadowing and there is, however, no mention of dogpatch plaza with open space anywhere in the final report and in the spirit of the report casts and shadow now the project sponsor that memo state the same thing with the casting of the shadow that was after the planning department completed the analysis and not available for public review or the planning department prior to publication.

so how could it be required without the analysis didn't consider the shadowing at the placing and hazardous materials were not analyzed or gp e and no indications for the impacts and prior to the laboratory will provide materials defining the eir with the actual materials and various materials can possess a risk to the workers parallel when the residential several schools and the proximity of the uses of the project and one not analyzed with the plant eir and while the planned eir is considered laboratory use for aircraft no analysis of the bio plan eir

hazardous material section. and also no mention of hazardous materials in the gp e and no evidence the efficiency of the regulations. the facilities are boxes this is a better spaces for biotech standpoints and specific activities will occur on site and enforcement under the various regulations tends to be oversight by the state and federal agencies when questioned by the planting the project entitlement team commented that is a bio safety level two. now that is not the only bio level the entitlements to bio level 3 for the first cove kit and for

the dangers and human error and disasters should have been analyzed with the publication mitigations including the potential project design changes and oversight and emergency planning the omission of review nor the cp e and in conclusion this project may have non-effects on the environment perk to the project not addressed for the eastern neighborhoods and full information was not known when the eir was certified the determination agency to this elevation should be revoked and this appeal to be upheld how this plays out with the neighbors we'll have the dogpatch neighborhood association. >> good evening supervisors and board staff thank you for your example it has been a long

day i'm the president of the dogpatch neighborhood association and chief for the ceqa approval and the concerns of the neighborhoods opposite the project and in my community leadership role i have a high range of neighbors have questions and concerns. early this summer spoke with the young mother and asked him why are we opposed about something that is positive and well, we explained i basically shared the information about the quality and shadows of the project and said where do i write any letter of opposition. in dogpatch we have a growing population a large number of young neighbors

and children and a little bit of open space children spaces are free park and the dogpatch. both are negatively impacting impacted by this project and dogpatch not mentioned in the shadow report my mom when i grew up she worked in the labs those facilities were never in neighborhoods worked next to the schools or next to homes. yet this project is between two large apartment and within that parcels my neighbors and i want to know how that is approved for near the schools and playground our children are vulnerable that is up for us to protect. so in closing they have failed to

address those and i recommend we have the right to be protected and ceqa should be overturned and our recommendation upheld. >> thank you, sir. and now hear unless colleagues have any questions go to public comment on this item for those in support of the appeal. >> seeing no other names on the roster, or anyone in supports public comment is closed. for support of appeal is closed (gavel) and we'll now hear for the planning department. >> and my apologies we after planning and questions into the board of supervisors we'll hear from the project sponsor.

>> good evening supervisor walton i'm sherri george staff with me are the environmental impact report officers and i'm going to give the bulk of today is presentation and - the decision for you is whether or not to adopt the ceqa elevation for 700 indiana street and

highlight the address why it failed to meet the issuance and i'll start with a brief project overview the project is locked other 700 indiana street a urban mix used a demolition of the site and constructing and in that story building with 72 thousand square feet the building is accompanied by outdoor terraces and parking. the department issues a type of ceqa follows the mandate of protection 210 at ceqa section one 518 that the state law mandates that projects consistent with the development

established by the general plan will impact the board shall not require an additional er this is consistent with the development established by the central waterfront area the redonning and plan eir was certified and the problematic eir rated the impacts of the results from the proposed donning control and including sites rezoned that allows technical uses by the project under this environmental impact report mandated by ceqa the studies where this will result in environmental impact by the eir. and based on the stunt evidence the department determines this is not a significant impact and the rest

of the presentation addresses side concerns not going to cover all of them in my remarks. the appellants con intend the zoning parallel with respect to the laboratory outdoors but a matter up to the board of appeals and not within ceqa appeal that is the focus of hearing what matters the project is consistent with the density and established by the requirement in the planned area where the neighborhood eir was. and as response one in the first memorandum explained the project was defined and therefore, liberty under the ceqa guidelines. the appellants argued the lack the particularly regarding the laboratory details as in the project exception

provides enough information in the detail sufficient for evaluation as section one 5154 the guidelines and the appellant raise concerns about the environmental impacts i'd like to briefly touch on shadows am the shadows are completed for 700 indiana street project first shadow shadow rec and park along dogpatch and the second shadow impacts the - the conclusion is that shadow impacts on parks will be less than significant and the department failed to properly have the eir mitigation measures for the impacts of project. the project mitigation

for toxic air consistent with the apable measure of the eir and effectiveness of that eir measure. this approach alliance and supported by - the department reasons for modifying this in the supplemental and don't disqualify the hazardous materials eir adequately analyzed the materials impacts related to the laboratory as stated in the response letter the gp determined no hazardous risks in the eir. and that's our appeal response described the project will be highly regulated by local, state, and federal and make sure the viral safety in conclusion, the date, time, and place admiration that the

project and evaluation for the section quoted by evidence and as stated in the responses the eir and gp e accurately and adequately talks about the impacts for the purpose of environmental impact report under ceqa including hazardous materials and g e or p and the appellant has not demonstrated therefore we respectfully ask the board of supervisors to uphold and fulfills the requirement of ceqa and now i'm going to turn it over to our environmental officer. >> good evening um, commissioner safai and members of boards i'm lisa you're environmental impact report officer and in february i

presented to the board the that 95 sacramento street and provide the detail to the ceqa guidelines one 5 that extension provided today. and less than two weeks after the landmark pertinent to the appeals of this tax exemption was issued i'd like to bring to your attention for the environmental impact report the concerns an appeal the second to the board of supervisors of san diego which upheld the appeal and without getting lost in the details the court determined the ceqa language exactly as we have understood that have praentd it to you today a mandate central review. the court held that the led agencies decision moved by

the mandate can be exchanged in court and that case the appellant and other key holdings to the board failure to limit to take event effectuate and enumerated and a lack of evidence regarding the finding that again are perk to that exact date i would like to this case with the legislative options with ab 16 that 3 for project housing accountability act reflect the market change and shift to the legal end about the appeals for being reviewed and the presidential nature of this makes is evidence this um, decision pertaining to exemption on the appeal at the time of that decision on the appeal so

therefore i would like to note we're here as the evidence is before the board and what was in the record and the decisionmakinging progress in the eir process regulating i think that is important and no. especially and evidence and respectfully this pertains to matters related to the appeal of board of appeals and then to the mayor for the project. um, that concludes my presentation. and staff and i are available to take questions. >> thank you for the presentation. i don't see any questions from colleagues, i think i have two questions. >> first one i wanted to make

sure i'm clear. (bell ringing) i cited a san diego state as an environmental - >> bring to your attention with the presidential nature of this case because for purposes of um, the ceqa and our practice case decisions have the effect law. >> establish standards by which we must abide in the overall decisionmaking that are per amenities for the um, case here today. >> i've never heard anyone correlate with the environmentally so, thank you. >> questions for don't labs physically handle some type of

hazardous material? >> thank you for the question. planning staff yes, we understand that lab could potentially handle hazardous materials and they're highly regulated by numerous regulators that handle it and our supplemental appeal. >> so with the fact there is extremely high possibility of hazardous materials to be handled on the site why was there no analysis of the materials to mention of bio hazards in the analysis? and it seems to me particularly that from our statement and high potential of hazardous material being handled at a site by the

community. >> joy from the planning staff yes, a discussion in the environmental impact report beginning on page 487. there is sites that is federal, state, and local regulations apprised to construction and soil. but they also added any future p dr or bio technology and that would be in the eastern neighborhood but the same regulations regarding the handling of use and disposal of hazardous materials and any regulations by the city as the result of the report issued but i bio scientist and that was described also in the eir. >> but ultimately the conclusion for any biotech or

lab uses any hazardous materials um, that in conclusion, in the eir is in compliance with the san francisco health code that incorporated the site personnel and the public of hazardous materials or waste will protect against the environmental happening and therefore the potential impact is associated with the development of the new planned uses resulting from the implementation of project that and no measures were required. >> because we've not analyzed but domestic violence the level of hazardous materials; right? >> be on site. >> it is will be analyzed by a regulated by um, regulators.

>> that's a fact. >> yes. when they're getting their licenses. >> and then your shadow analysis is pretty um, i know after the general plan evaluation can you explain that that is a doubt what the conclusions were like planning already made a decision. >> supervisor walton planning department. >> for the shadow impact analysis for the g e those are used to analyze section 295 and included as a supplemental analysis by the community from must finding and a further request by the community was my understanding requested for

non-dogpatch and supplemental analysis for that was included in the supplemental memo at the time of the commission both all analysis conducted be less impacts related to shadows isn't parks. >> and did you come to the concussions prior. >> we included the analysis and that was - with the appellant and directed our consultants in a similar manner i i'm not sure where what the basis of that question was but absolutely not. >> we talk about air quality and did you conduct a map

incentive sensor prior to approve of the hearings for this project? >> so the mitigation measure for air quality specifies that um, the analysis of those specific sensors you read prior to the building basic stepping back the possibility for impacts we identified was related to um, the potential exposure for the air conditioning nationals and generated by the project operation this and so, so the mitigation measure safety that and the air quality analysis is effective and staff did a survey

of protectors and at the time of the navels effective and it is permitted to if it is allowed for identification the incentive repertoires a greater accuracy is for the sensors. >> i don't have any more questions for them and a representative from the project sponsor here? >> good evening my name is leah i'm a service chief operating officer for the bio lab and we provide lab space in

support for biotech stovetops with diagnostic and climate change and subsequent and our scientists are committed their lives work to improving the work and their consciousness citizens of the neighborhood and cities and the broader community and our scientist and staff live and work in san francisco. and walk or take public transit to work and the laboratories which means that the studies are in the lab but unlikely to be in the community. biotech laboratories are regulated by a number of agencies at at local state and ferguson to make sure our practices are safe. some, some

of the agencies are cal osha and the department of toxic control and california united program the district and the commissions the bayview air quality district and the centers control prevention and we're supporting one hundred and 35 stovetops and by helping them understand and provide the complex safeguards and other things hone we all operate irresponsible to care for the community and our environment. will not just about the external responsibility but the wellness of your employees. and they are at the heart of our mission the safety are the utmost you priority and as

promised i it can take that responsibility very seriously. lastly as a proud long time resident of san francisco i believe we should encourage for our more laboratory space in the city and labs create many grounds not only for lab technicians and stovetops are the true development of tinges and leveraging cutting age and that is an ideal hub we without the proper lab structure companies will have to go elsewhere i hope you support the growth. thank you for your time and i'm available for questions.

>> thank you supervisors john that we have that laboratory buildings and numerous other buildings for a general plan with the eir and this is available consistent with the development density on the eir unless something perk about the project that causes more impacts than previously analyzed and that is with consistedcy with the eir and the plan is permitted by zoning. the project is only building 58 percent of allowable density at the site and 10 feet shore for half of the site exactly the kind of project intended for the gp e when the eir was drafted several

environmental issues agreed in the staff reports are not justified and it board knows ceqa appeal when reviewing the question whether the department findings are on the record and if they are the gp e should be upheld and - general arguments speculation from the appellant underline the gp e they agreed this description by the bio lab technology the project will not include life sciences facilities, however, none of those items are port did ceqa guidelines need a description of site and around the guidelines non-compliant and just what is necessary to evaluate and review

the sites under the planning code that is roughly quote bio technology clarified by the bio level 3, 2, 1 unquote and elevated for those and no need for further clarification and agreed any questions about the difference between bio level 3, 2, 1 those are different physical facilities the facilities are designed not need to be used for bio level that there are physical components of this building of which any questions? we can go into detail but bio 3, 2, 1 but encourage you to ask in question if it didn't address the shadowing it is supported by constitutional

evidence and air quality - this argument a merit tuesday mitigation measures update the measures that have to go by the measures are valid and appropriate and more importantly xhukt that in fact, the stronger mitigation in time of entitlement you'll know more about the mechanical system and hereby will be considered at that time if we care about the mitigation - that doesn't meet the litigation and regarding shadowing didn't correctly discuss the dogpatch but in the

appellants letter dogpatch are include in the project original plan analysis and analysis was present under the potential shadow and shadows has been on the plaza both throughout the year and stand alone qualitative report the appellant does talk about no evidence has been attempted and in essence the shadow study was prepared and the appellant raised the issue. planning commission considers that additional analysis the project was eligible for gp e and exactly how ceqa was proposed to work and finally appellant argued about the eir and gp e failed to analysis the impacts by the biotech lab and

stated in addition to the mitigation measures federal guidelines that make sure that that is not causing think impact on the environment and cited 9 other registry programs to make sure the laboratories will not are emissions and one example provide oversight both local of hazardous soil excavated and such analysis occurred over the ceqa review and numerous robust registry programs for hazardous materials and finally analysis the appeal decision made earlier by the court of appeals and with the county san diego and analyzed the previous eir where

no unique impacts and clearly the case here appellants raised concerns have not provided evidence and after that, the evidence provide by the appellant and respectfully ask you deny the appeal. thank you. >> thank you. we'll ask for public comment for folks in support of the project. >> hello. >> my name is matt gender i'm an resident of san francisco moved to the city over 10 years and wanted to start a plaza company and did much for the last decade on potrero hill and were any lab was. which was not great. um, and then last year fortunate enough here in san francisco passport hill nbc one of the buildings and my company

makes that same house and methane and we can get it and um, i get to walk to work everyday in my other career i never did that and now i walk to the gym after work and in the community they provide all of the safety guidance i don't think about that i don't want to think about the laboratory overhead they take care of that for us i ask you to support standing space and my company can get started in san francisco and more companies. thank you very much. >> good afternoon. >> board of supervisors good

evening. i'm a local developer and on the advisory committee and board of supervisors i hope you support m bs bio labs and shouldn't be allowed to have defines put in place especially to halt projects in the district and this is an attempt to ban the labs not good for city of san francisco this is a miro business with the levy in the state of mind only positive things can come in the university students with labs in the close proximity to the schooling and as a fellow graduate and the everything and san francisco must get back to be a beacon of light for the world. i wonder whether the

supervisors motivates were even after a hargd day. thank you. >> and community advocates are merely in funded black owners up and down the students and introduce legislation but not limited to michael developers and sub contractors and with luxury outdoor spaces and general contractors corporation (bell ringing) taken back state and families to no vail why play and political game what will people gain if not in the playing field and bio lab for supporting sf law within the industry is commendable and thank you, douglas crawford (bell ringing) thank you, you're time is up.

>> good evening board of supervisors and my name is dave i'm from supporting u a local 38 in san francisco and here in support of project and 700 indiana street and this project currently has a project labor agreement not only provides plenty of work dedicated in this situation for labor unions but also provides local hire qualities in the area and all of the scientists and other workforce um, that woke um, brought to this project is despite and along with the surrounding areas that benefit from a project like this

hopefully you'll support this project. >>ng, everyone john vice president of san francisco building construction trades council here to speak in support of project against the appeal for a number of reasons number one, we have a project sponsor made a commitment and made a commitment to a apprenticeship and opportunities in local 6 we've had probably the worst 4 year run that we've had in decades but for the supplant being redone on the southeast section the lowest hours in years. we need projects like this and need do divert of destroy in san francisco the project like that provides and we also need to make sure the

message is sent that san francisco is open for business and that we do encourage innovation and research the project is not necessary providing jobs with construction but that the construction of a project like this leads to further development of good sustainable careers in san francisco both the trades and in the bio scientists and it is important to think of the investment (bell ringing) in san francisco in the eastern neighborhoods and lastly when we look at the - they feel this has been determined by the planning staff and too often of not moving fast enough and deliberate for a reason they reviewed that and say the

eastern neighborhood plan, which have been around the memories are 8 years with the potrero hill boosters was a big part of this product thank you for your time (bell ringing) >> good evening. >> been a long one but we're still here that shows our dedication i've been here all day had an opportunity to speak in favor of the continuance my name is demetrius and in the local building trades and also a worker contractor so when seven hundred indiana came and talked about to the clefgz not more of a supporter but have to get this passed and because it is not just for the communities it is

for the residents also and make sure so many businesses closing in san francisco we have someone that wants to help san francisco that is for that we place this measure and really look at it and, yes time to open the doors for business in san francisco and give people opportunities especially to scientists a chance to see affordable for them to have a place for their um, tools i mean their tuition and stuff i'm in support of this measurement i'm so excited i hope the board of supervisors also passed this measurement because this is imperative not just for the construction but, but for the residents of the community to move forward (bell ringing) and open up the doors for san francisco businesses to continue to thrive. thank you.

>> good evening, my name is i'm here to speak in support of msnbc and residents for over 16 years and chief the staff a startup with the cbos in mission bay and currently with the existing m b c lab building and working with the development for sustaining parts of the district and as a scientist nearly all the san franciscans have development a potential to transform cancer treatment for the clinical trial will threat humans with the basin treatment and the tenants we'll complete

with large companies and so some will move outside of the city but focus the financial resources on hiring people from our community to do valuable science and we attract innovation and jobs for individuals and all levels and provide support to businesses in the dogpatch and i see colleagues and other companies frequently restaurants and we value the bipartisanship safety and 40s those reasons like to share my support for 700 indiana street. >> i'm a research society in therapeutics and work out of a bio lab to cure aids related

disease i called san francisco was my home when i moved into the home with my grandfather and my childhood memories are brieshth when covid 19 hit i defined my roll that financially allowed me to remain a san franciscan and professional network within the city. during my nearly that years bio lab offered a chance to meet an array of diversity and the daughter of immigrants to solve - i believe space with m b c labs has a background are amplified and the celebrate the expansion of spaces in san francisco. as a proud resident

of this city interest in science and bio tech is a obvious consideration and work as an individual. i give back to the community i call san francisco my home. thank you. >> good evening. my name is rachel and i'm a san franciscan resident. >> about 6 years ago i graduated with engineering from uc and retired with the first employee asian related custodial - diabetes this company was fortunate to call m b c home and i see this aligns with my personal values with equity and belonging. m b c has access to a central lab space and supports

entrepreneurss regardless of their background and includes policies for the foundational principles for the initiatives and some are struggling no support everywhere by the over 50 percent fournz across the place to identify either women or underrepresented racial groups this approach has a scope of research but enhances the visibility for the science a scientific break through's can be accessible in the population and m b c bio lab commitment to the community and recognizes the responsibilities we all have for diversity and sound and activities included the range of programs (bell ringing) and local stem outreach events from programs that supports

underrepresented groups and for founders for underrepresented groups i urge you to support this. >> good evening supervisor walton and board of supervisors i am a lifelong resident and um, we are proud to support seven hundred indiana this project we respectfully urge you to deny the appeal and fails to meet the threshold for over thank you, sir, your time is up. >> and should be denied and like to point out the hospital is approximately 13 hundred feet from the project that we saw and about that 1,000 right next to the hospital as well and well-designed and is code compliant and investment in the

san francisco economic recovery i urge you you to deny the appeal. thank you very much. >> good evening i haven't been able to call you president walton and supervisors and construction trades council more of my colleagues were here earlier but i want to note there is a narrative around good jobs and inclusion and innovation and proud to think that could help the fact is you have a very stake in narrow scope. and with all wishdz it falls shortfalls to provide what you need and frankly must demonstrate to

uphold they're appeal for this reason i ask you to deny the appeal didn't ppo the conversation is over but respectfully call out another group i think we need to continue to have conversation around that because in the community concerns need to be heard and arranged i found a particular developer will have this conversation and hundreds of commitments in other places they - i think that they already are maybe so i went out to the site this weekend and governor brown hope you finish the park later (bell ringing) i noticed msnbc are already neighbors and part of the community and precedent in particular neighborhood and because they're on indiana if you were to be at the factor on the left and see other side of

the street you can look across it is desolate parking lot and old structure and realize we have a potential on the merits (bell ringing) respectfully ask you to deny the appeal tonight. thank you. >> thank you, mr. secretary treasurer. >> good evening supervisors. and scientists in the trades hard act to follow i'm christie i'm an area policy manager for bio california and it is oldest transition for the life survives with over 18 hundred members in the area and bio comes 2024 economic report that realize the life sciences generates $8 billion in san francisco and this includes over 25 thousand

jobs but supported by the cigarette like those at the union trade centers here and those jobs booster the local economy but a robust economy that supports the city. the jobs the lab requires on site work and many of the employees at the jobs or labs are residents of san francisco living and work within the city and as a matter of fact there were more scientists waiting to give comments but had to leave and members of our communities and the diversity of our city projects like 700 indiana street we need in support of constitutional development and encouraging the long traction of technology prerng i urge you to you consider the positive impact this will have. thank you for

your time. >> monkey here would like to speak on the public comment in opposition to the appeal or in support of the project. >> no speakers public comment is closed. (gavel) >> we do have any that minutes for rebuttal by the appellant. >> we have that minutes for rebuttal by the appellant. >> thank you supervisors we have to start by mit yes will be a lot of good - that's not the point it is a planning code that distinguishes between the good or bad uses that evaluates and our argument that the planning

department didn't study necessary for it to be able to have the eir and make the finds and in the evaluation with respect to the shadows we acknowledged they analyzed the shadows on the dogpatch are lulled? on the same day the gp is out before the conclusion and the analysis was provided and that it was not analyzed for the analysis but with respect to the mitigation for air quality if i have have the overhead from the planning department own memo you see the planned they make the study prior didn't mean you contacted or can't do that after but we're going to do an

analysis to identify prior to the entitlement of the building when you can perhaps do more more and more with the types of toxic air that is floating around up through compare this to the issue when we did a study brand with the machinery will not be in place and more afterward words they did the study beforehand that was perspired by the eir but didn't see it in this case but talks about construction issues like the things that are on site but didn't cover the operations they have to follow the law we know that already and new regulations from the pier science report that is implemented 2005 and nothing came of that nothing about the planning department will do in relation to the

environment that helps to mitigate the hazardous material i and like a game you heard it more from the project sponsor no more later (bell ringing) but not the time of the project for us to use the extension and we're not saying they can't be fixed and recommended in the future but it can't go forward unless that is done appropriately right now. thank you. >> thank you. so much and hearing from all parties (bell ringing) we'll close this hearing (gavel). >> colleagues anyone have any questions or statements if not - first one i want to say objective this is an important matter and we take our work

seriously i think the concerns raised on behalf of himself definitely valid and planning nor the more than can saying this site will not cause harm to the area. i want just to be clear, that i fully support of the building and the site. let me say that again, i fully support the site by most certainly the environmental impact report have not completely - i know that whatever was to happen at the site provide jobs for labor. and, of course, we'll make sure that our building construction trades have the opportunities to have those quality jobs and in fact, woenlt find another human being with flavor to the meat we want to say that when people come to the chambers with the

projects they should know what they're coming about. before they get up there and speak and say anything with that said, beyond the environmental concerns the project is consistent with the general plan and the proposal life sciences youth that is prohibited in the marin county housing authority board of commissioners zoning district and additionally the project fails to lion with the goals outlined nonprofit earn neighborhood area plan. and the plans were obviously planned for the city's needs for housing and prefer the integrity of the neighborhoods and this project unfortunately, falls short i this or, talk about how the project and other opportunities the housing element how we are ways behind in reaching our goals and how but the fact they're truly environmental

concerns with the shadows and air quality and whether that is appealed or not and something i don't joy about the job but i do think that we are at a place we need to wait and therefore like to table item 23 and approve items that 4 and that 5 and make a motion to do that. >> seconded by supervisor. >> supervisor ronen. >> all right. on that motion i'm making sure i have not missed comments madam clerk get a roll call. >> on the motion to table 23 and approve items this and 20th century. >> supervisor chan, no. >> it supervisor dorsey, no. >> supervisor engardio, no. >> supervisor mandelman, no.

24 and 25 and approve item 23. >> seconded by supervisor mandelman. >> madam clerk motion to approve item 23. >> supervisor dorsey and table items this and 20th century. okay. >> on that motion supervisor chan, aye. >> supervisor dorsey, aye. >> supervisor engardio, aye. >> supervisor ronen, aye. >> supervisor melgar, aye. >> supervisor preston, aye. >> as supervisor ronen, aye. >> supervisor safai, aye. >> supervisor stefani, aye. >> supervisor walton, no. >> walton no 9 ayes and one no with supervisor walton no. >> admission to approve item 23 and thank you for the public

for sticking around and apologize for the time we started the appeal. madam clerk we are now at. >> roll call for introductions. >> thank you, mr. president first up to introduce is supervisor chan. >> thank you, madam clerk and colleagues today, i'm introducing a resolution to urge dr. mark wayne for the unified school district to re-evaluate the plan to close or merge san francisco schools after the alignments last august to respond to issues facing the districts the superintendent made clear closures and no information shared with the families are community partners telling me what this criteria and now the announcements has been delayed no further transparency and the school district has with budgetary problems and over million

dollars failed and our educators and school left them without pay check and now a new $5.4 billion and the district should focus on the disaster at the table and work with the california of education to have a cost analysis and benefits and call statement analysis and propose $790 million and i appreciate the education and recommended to work with the superintendant after the emergency meeting last sunday and work with all stakeholders and look at all options for considering school closing and. the rest i submit. >> >> thank you commissioner walton and supervisor dorsey. >> thank you, madam clerk i'm drafting a request to be the

feedback from the constituents on the context of recovering housing legislation co-sponsoring with - and as that addresses the discrete issue that is large in scope with the legislation and i'm asking that requires a cleaner and adequate notification to permits for the housing on drug related policies for the use of - and i'm also asking this include a signed acknowledgement of finding by the residents must be appropriate and in the language access ordinance and this legislation will have the work for the recovery bs h adoption but the issue that is elevated to my attention on the currents bs a residents has drug policies

with the state housing provisions of the california welfare institution codes will political the states funded that requires tenants election to bring in and accepting applicants regardless of the substance abuse and the alcohol it not a reason for eviction and part of services for the and i dicks and assembly member matt haney has allowed for the recovery options in 24/79 legislation for the federal housing and the issue that has emerged locally some members of recovery who are bs h residents are not adequately informed about the drug policies. few those of us in the policy making

have to terms like housing and bs h and harm reduction without appreciating sometimes, the no intuitive lecturing meaning those we serve parallel the residents struggling with disorders and fears when they expect themselves to be a situations and for some folks sobriety and they're not speculative a quote san francisco supportive housing sro's are 60 percent overdosing and this is a clear but misleading clarifications and appropriate languages to clarify

and to clearly for the folks and i hope you support it and. the rest i submit. >> >> thank you, supervisor dorsey and supervisor engardio summit thank you. supervisor engardio thank you, madam clerk i have a resolution a millennium resolutions for office of emergency services as the october 2024 as the first san francisco fairway month in the city and county of san francisco since 1984 when they published her publication and long before that san francisco is a perish precious place in 2004 governor gavin newsom declared it stairway day and the
