new nct. the controls for the two districts by this time are almost identical. and, so, there's no real land use or planning rationale to maintain two nearly identical districts. here in this map just on the overhead shows that as proposed, there would be just a couple of small lots left out. so the department's recommendation is that the commission recommend that the full area be rezoned to the upper market nct by including those last remaining parcels on lots 263, 6 and 91. on the northeast corner of castro [speaker not understood]. the fed recommendation does not require a map and the department is recommending that the commission recommend that the limited use of the off-site food prep for cafe floor be expanded and more broadly applied. the proposed ordinance would create a path to legalize what appears to be an illegal accessory kitchen located at 260-1/2 noe street, which supports the very small kitchen at cafe floor. and as proposed, this provision would sunset after one year. and during that one year the operator could obtain all necessary permits, go t

reflecting the many new residents we expect to come is a new folsom street shopping district with the concentrated muni service. it's the folsom street nct that the zoning -- the rezoning would establish. and it would become a real center for south of market neighborhood that has always been desired, but is still only in a very beginning form at this time. the third thing is that we have used every trick in the planning tool book we could think of or was suggested to maintain our neighborhood's diversity. it's economic diversity, it's business diversity, it's cultural diversity. it's always what made south of market special in our opinion and we have tried everything that we could to foster that, especially given the otherwise gentrification that is steadily spreading throughout the neighborhood. in 20 years, perhaps all the market rate stock will have been gentrified, which makes affordable housing and inclusionary housing that our plan provides for extremely important, essential in order to maintain any social diversity. finally i just want to note there are dozens if not a hundred compromises in this plan. i know you understand as leg

ncts throughout the city could be step one. and then step two, looking at -- because obviously most people are fine with the status quo. the issue is we don't know if we do a new balance, creating kitchens all over the place. the issue was not going to the next step. >> this makes sense with cafe floor, with the commercial being in the front and kitchen being in the back. it is pre-existing many years. we had the castro country club. it had been turned into another use a long time ago. we all supported that use continuing because it made sense. i think there are instances in which we want to support our small businesses and local businesses in the community and needing to do those things. it is true that in that nayerction, i was shocked when that cafe went out of business. it always seemed like a thriving restaurant and it didn't continue. the new place is going in there concept is going to work out. there seemed to be a turn over in the neighborhood, we can support that, the owner having a track record the last 32 years. it says a lot about this business. i agree when i think of cafe floor. it is a gateway when you're coming up market street. i think it make
