so the local adu program would now be an 207 point one and the stated adu program relocated to 207.2 all the references have been updated. and just rewards to the highlighting mentioned earlier we didn't highlight the relocation from 207 until it would be kind of confusing and didn't want to make it more confusingin entire version highlighted for you. we do have - kick lasted a amendment mr. star shared those amendments in december and again, provided we have a clearer version for you in the e-mail last week and hard copies available today. since mr. star went ov tweek i'll not go over them a full listed requested we ask the amendments be made in committee and continued to the through the chair and return to the body after we bring the item back to the planning commission. um, this that concludes my presentation. again, please advise if you me to read through the amendments today. thank you. >> okay. >> yes. supervisor preston we have questions stay please. >> thank you. >> supervisor melgar i'm fine with the motion that we make amendments and then has to be referred back and take ac

um, and also so that an adu or not an adu, i, i, i, i, um, i see, i see penalty, i see the knife cutting both ways on, on the 80 on the adu situation. i would support the adu simply because it adds a unit of, of inventory and if you want a covenant that it's a, uh, rent control, that's that's great. it's probably going to be rent control anyway. but i would covenant it anyway. but i wouldn't. i think you penalize the i, you penalize the city as much as you benefit the, the homeowners on that. but that's where we stand. um, so who wants to take it further or want to refine it? so, um, so i heard two offers there, one and forgive me, i was looking up the rent control ordinance just to verify, but unfortunately, we've been in this hearing, so long, my battery has died on my laptop . um, so i would, um, you know, take, take both offers, actually. and get revised plans to increase the size of the unit by removing the laundry facility and having a covenant place just to ensure as necessary that that unit is rent controlled and if we do that and remove the decks, then i guess maybe we can move

we're subdividing into 25 foot sections with the, you know, primary dwelling adu and j. adu. um, that would make these only 20ft wide in every case, which would make them almost again, unbuildable, uh, this is going to have a significant impact on the ability to create housing in our city. and it concerns me as an architect that our community was not even, um, approached to discuss this. this was introduced only in november, and it's already moving through the basic, you know, but this is a big deal. well, the six section that the fire department, um, cited that fire at 720 masonic. that's an old housing project with no second exit and a very narrow tradesman alley with electric and gas meters in it. that is not the case of a subdivided lot that's got new construction. modern new construction is required to be sprinklered. it has to meet significant fire safety standards that were not in place when our original housing stock was built. so i don't see this as an apples to apples, um, you know, straight safety concern. i see it as an overall each in making a major change to the

wants to build 71 new single-family homes but each lot will also have an accessory dwelling unit, or adut, bringing the total number of homes to 141. >> for them, it is a matter of sort of -- we are not used to seeing adu's here or there. to see a community where every lot has two homes is a new thing. >> company president charles mccaig says because of state law, antioch has little to say about it. >> it gives us a right does a developer , without the city having a whole lot of discretion in the matter, to add an accessory dwelling unit to each of those lots without having to change the zoning. >> the city might not object anyway. rural suburban communities are under pressure from the state to add new housing. john geary is ceo of a bay area company that has grown to be the largest a du builder in the state. >> when it comes to the state level and local jurisdiction, they are looking at a two over what is getting called gentle density. it is density in existing single-family and increasingly multifamily communities to add housing in areas that need it most. >> there was another new wrin

today we are joined by somebody who is a coloradan who directly experienced the benefit of adu's , and has been a game changer for his family. increased his property value, created another low-cost housing option for a family of four that he is now renting two. please join me and -- and welcoming josef, who is here with his family. [applause] together, we can help more coloradans make decisions that work best not only for themselves and their families, but create more housing opportunities for others, and i look forward to working with the sponsors who are leading the way in this exciting legislative effort. this session, i will be supporting a bill to reduce the cost of housing and encourage innovative approaches like new financing strategies, easing parking restrictions, tackling liability costs for multifamily condos, reducing the cost of fire insurance, especially in the face of increasing climate related disasters like the fire we just observe the second anniversary of. and i will be very skeptical of bills that will increase the cost of housing. as you might be able to tell, hous

be, the edu might be eligible to legalize the unit through the legalization program or the various adu programs we have. so we want to be able to retain the unit if they are eligible through those pathways. um, staff does support the coa exemption. if the only way to legalize the edu is through a variance. and just to add a little more background for this as well. um there are times or often times the zoning administrator is able to grant a variance for open space or exposure requirements based on exceptional or extraordinary circumstances from the property. however, if the property owner chooses not to legalize the edu, but they do have, um, the variance granted or the potential for the variance granted, it does create a scenario where the planning commission will be faced with a request to remove the edu, even though they could move forward with that variance. um, the variance request. so this recommended modification would also alleviate some of those conflicting or potentially conflicting scenarios as. and with respect to the second recommended modification in the recommendation is

the adu corps, when it saw such a light , the mirage of zafar ran away from you , it scattered like a black circle. the production of all the young, fresh and different forces, in my opinion, this is actually a new golden vein that cannot be discovered in the art of friends . it is going to be broadcast on the tv, it has no enemies , aman elanj is a monster, only the creators of the myth have decided to depict the stories of other heroes of this land and water in the same format. sahar zwanati of sedav and sima news agency announced that the second largest shipping company in the world has increased three and a half times the cost of sea transportation due to the non-stop traffic of the company's ships on the red sea route. the multinational msc shipping company announced that the average price of shipping a container was $2,000, which has increased to $7,000. msc is one of the companies that attack ships zionism in the red sea stopped the movement from this route. the american company announced earlier that its sea transportation costs increased by 173% in the last two months and it

adu program. commissioners. you heard this item on september 28th and recommended approval with modification. that modification was to amend the code to exclude adus from the dwelling unit mix requirement. planning staff also read into the record several other changes that hcd said we needed to include in the ordinance to be compliant with state law. these amendments had not been considered by the planning commission, so the idea was to have the amendments made in committee and then referred back to the planning commission for your review supervisor peskin did take exception to the amendments, claiming them to be a last, claiming them to be last minute and that he would be shirking his response as a legislator if he accepted them without fully understanding them . this was a surprise to us as mayor. staff did send the amendments to all land use committee members via email on december 6th, with an offer for briefing making our planning code consistent with state adu rules is essential in the san francisco's recei

there have been two circumstances where a small adu accessory dwelling unit was built as manufactured housing so that that is manufactured housing is regulated by the federal housing and urban development. and in that case, local ordinance of this sort do not apply. but those are very small units on the back of an existing unit. and you wouldn't be able to take the same approach for an entire new development. in general, though, the other thing that we can see from the data is it takes some time between when a building application is submitted and when the architect and engineers design the project , get to the stage of the process where they provide this level of detail. so we have a limited set of buildings that really made it that far in the process. even in the first couple of years and next slide, please. and i'd be happy to answer questions if there are any questions, comments. yes. this i think we heard this presentation last year and last year. the data was, i think almost all the data was don't know yet. so it's good to see that we have at least 60 applications that actually
