the commission so we'll withhold our final comments, however, would like to support commissioner wolfram's comment unplaza and civic center plaza be reevaluated regarding as to whether or not their character finding features overall and like to see that analysis be incorporated into the final document coming back before you thank you very much. >> any other of the member wishz to speak seeing none, back to you, commissioners. >> commissioner johns. >> thank you, mr. buehler i think maybe was quite perceive i think we should take a little bit more time it's not ready to be adapted today i think that the comments made by mr. haas and staff has already really acknowledged there's more work to be done i'm thinking we should ask staff about how long it will take to do the additional work that esteems to be required and then pit this over to law enough time for the work to the accomplished. >> mr. frye. >> tim frye department staff to accommodate some of the more basic at its mr. haas mentioned will probably take a few months to accommodate all the idiots we're talking about years just as mr. hi

. >> commissioner wolfram. >> yeah.'ll agree with the other commissioners, i think i do wish there was is more in the inventory more analysis contributing i think the thing that makes me nervous there's 2rik9 features listed and i i hope their integrity but the art agency in the public library are those the murals that were removed in the p zoning oh, $0.35 that's not accurate because they're no longer there so those little things the things that make me nervous the civic center can use help so there's a project to make changes and looked at it want 2rik9 features and is we can't touch the contributing features we want to be careful whether this is a contributing features i'm thinking about the small-scale features that could affect projects and regarding the initial section on the sort of chronological history for those context cigarette butt maybe to do a chronological about the section i was trying to figure out what happened to the foundation ♪ the civic center sometimes their referring to in a different way and tal

in the meantime, commissioner wolfram. >> i guess i would say a couple things in response to commissioner hyland, which is we shouldn't forget we did designate quite a few buildings last year, the marcus and the tavern so there was a big set of landmarks that went through, it's like you swallow a big meal and then you take off until it's digested again. i don't think we should forget, i think the staff has done a great job in pushing through a lot of designations. >> absolutely. no criticism intended. >> i agree with commissioner hasz that three months to me seems like an appropriate time. i think six weeks we'd spend all our time doing reports. about the prioritization next time, i would throw in a pitch for the modern designations. in the 4 years since this list was created we haven't designated any, in pacific heights, every time i go, oh, my god, what happened to that one? there is so much change in that neighborhood and i think it would send a good message these are important resources in there and a lot of people buy houses and they are modern houses and they think, oh, well, i can

along with the commission if one of you would like to attend, maybe president hasz or vice president wolfram, we're certainly happy to have that conversation because we agree with you. it's certainly a worthy candidate of our local program. >> commissioner hyland. >> i would support what you are suggesting, mr. pearlman. i think we should take an active role in putting forward, once the unintended consequences --. >> are played out. >> are played out, exactly, instead of letting it drop. the legislation clarifies how the pdr to office conversion works that we then encourage the supervisors to --. >> because i also think that would reinforce our role, especially to someone like supervisor cohen, where we're not -- i think commissioner wolfram said it best. we should be doing what we do, let the planning commission do what they do and let the supervisor's office do what the supervisors do. so our role is really in the role of the landmarks program is very much first and foremost in the public's eye about what we do. we create landmarks. i mean that's what the department and the hpc, you know,

so i'll wait to hear from the ones we received in the packet i've responded to 12 and commissioner wolfram. >> i have a general question i kind of felt like i was missing a section i didn't say see an integrity section it jumped from history to those drawings that show contributing or non-contributing features the decision about whether or not their contributing it is missing in my section i'm wondering was that intentional for example, and a lot of the things popped out like one of the things listed as an contributing feature is the mall you can easily august the original design as flawed that was completely different and listed as contributing so it needs to be more of an evaluation of the integrity. >> yes. the actual analysis comes after the inventory pages so the block by block summaries are at the end it is the register significance and the district i can grab a copy. >> is if a separate document. >> in the back of that one. >> starting open page 87 it sort of the sore page 82 the evaluation analysis of the document they you think through the different areas i've mentioned they kind

designation process in a very simple fashion, but i shared this with president hasz and vice president wolfram at one of our last meetings and they thought it was very helpful and that we should include it in the memo to really give the full commission an idea of all the steps it takes to bring something through the landmark designation process. so this essentially is what we've translated into the new graphic that you'll see on the progress report, which we'll talk about in a second. so the current landmark work program then begins on page 5 and this is largely the same information that we've provided you in the past. what we've done here, though, is really two things. one, we're trying to provide you more accurate and up to date information as to the status of these designations and we're doing that not only through the narrative of the completed tasks, which we're fleshing out a little more than we have in the past, but this graphic that shows you all the steps. you'll see that some, it appears the landmarks report is almost done, some it appears we've done a little bit. that green bar that
