affiliated with postsecondary institution or group housing generally as is the case in the hh-2 district. certainly residential properties, conditional use is being requested for private parking use. there is the case of 950 van ness which was just discussed which is private parking for the classic vehicle collection. but for most other sites the private parking requested is parking that already exists but would no longer be used in an accessory manner so conditional use is required to establish it as its own distinct use. the policy doesn't allow students to park in those spaces. they are reserved for faculty and staff that are not residing at these residential build. the last type of conditional use you would otherwise see as part of the project is for the removal of the dwelling unit under section 317. and this is unrelate to the waiving of 317e provision i discussed earlier. is we pavel happens at 560 powell and 680 sutter. at powell the additional unit was perhaps a clerical error. it's difficult to see where within the building a unit was eliminated. and at 680 sutter the

the other thing to look at is group housing. it is usually permitted. if it is affiliated with the hospital that is a conditionally permitted use. c u adds risk and cost to the facility. guilty rid of that c .u. group housing should be approved in our districts. that is theway to do this. we may have a glut of healthcare space. we need to do everything we can to facility those housing types in san francisco. we need to consider extending this to all zoning districts. >> next speaker, please. >> i am going to sticks with districted 10, bayview. in any needs assessment we have to go at least 50 to 75 years back. to start with 10 to 15 years that has been done with this presentation. very few people know that the bayview contributed to building of the hospital, the gray hospital, the san francisco general hospital, i see the director nodding his led. he should know that. it should be inc.corporated in -- incorporated in the needs assessment. there is $2 billion running the san francisco general hospital. what are they doing for bayview? absolutely nothing.

so what we're looking at legalization for the use with regards to housing are the group housing rooms. so for the group housing rooms, there are about five properties that total 160 rooms, and actually includes 1055 pine which they have been used illegally for many years. they will be moving out, and moving forward, it's my understanding that it's to be used, the $235,000 cost or the gap that mohcd has for developing housing, times that by the 150 -- and that's how we got the number. >> commissioner richards: okay. i wondered. >> every single live work unit that was approved in san francisco has an n.s.r. on it and saying it's not housing, it's commercial. and so academy put students in the housing -- pardon me -- in the buildings and considered it to be student housing, but they didn't comply with the law oliv on live-work units. there were units that were abandoned, and there were more on harrison street. so they were not housing at that time because they were not conforming housing. that w they were both substantial buildings. >> president melgar: thank you, miss hester. mr. adams,

one was that the house speaker had to name the house impeachment managers, that group of house lawmakers who will basically act as prosecutors on the senate floor. the other thing they had to do was transmit the articles of impeachment. but after the vote the house speaker gave that press conference last night where it seemed as if she was saying that she wasn't going to commit to a timeline for doing either of those things. and it seemed as if she was making a ploy to build more leverage, to say in effect to mitch mcconnell, look, unless or until you commit to offering us a fair trial and having a trial on terms favorable to democrats, we are not going to set this up for you, we're not going to send you the things you would need to kick off this trial, which on its face seems like a risky and curious strategy, because how do you build leverage with someone by denying them the thing they've never wanted, right? well, today, in that press conference, and you're seeing video of it right now, the house speaker clarified things. what she said was is that yes, she intends to name the house ma
