antonini: i don't expect an answer now but it's for staff to look into. i believe we have voted for january 15th if i'm not mistaken what the time was and i asked within the hearing as to any limit on the amount of time that could be allowed and i don't know whether it had anything to do with the truncate of the period. >> my recollection from that hearing and this goes more generally to how we handle things at the commission level was that i don't remember actually having a vote on that date. it was the commission deciding that we should extend the period and sort of giving the direction that the date should be january 15th. so my question is one, what's the date for the eir and two, what should be our general policy as maybe for other commissions or how we handle issues like that. i think a lot of times when we make more informal statements of direction to staff and i feel like if this is a problem for this particular issue, we might think about just being more careful about actually taking motions when we want to take direction from staff. questions, w

. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i have questions for staff okay. i'm looking the plans now there's been conjure about the different positions of the garage but according to the plans the separation between the existing garage and the easement are 20 feet 6 inches and the same distance it shown on the proposed site 20 feet 6 inches so, i mean there's maybe a slope that is part of the new driveway to allow the cars duo to go into the driveway. >> the project is not being changed the footprint of the existing building doesn't change that is only the vertical position on top of the garage. >> if i'm reading this there's a slope that allows the garage level to be slightly lower maybe i'm miss interpreting that. >> what's the present height of the garage and what will the height be with the edition on the top someone said something about to the call of the chair feet. >> the vertical edition above the deck a 12 needed no total that goes to the slope roof. >> the peak. >> and then somewhat lower on the slopes. >> correct. >> the four feet that was referen

. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i visited the site yesterday and got a a chance it was overcast but i would doubt the impact of the property building could have much of a effect only shadows its only 10 feet in height there is an elevations height of another 10 feet the folks homes the backyard section is above even see given the fact the hill is steep the sun will be blocked as it moves across the sky the neighbors behind you yap of two many times the capitalization of one floor addition will have a significant shadowy understand the project sponsor has agreed and i assume as part of the case report to make 9 second floor even with the dr requesters building mr. lindsey. >> that plan has not been simpleminded. >> we'll have to take dr but i want to say the architect present of yeah. hi dr requesters have talked about the phelps of the building it has no real significant impact either way although they get a little bit of a separation between their yards and the one story addition but there is a structural reason wh

antonini: i have some comments and questions. i'm looking at the diagram and it appears that some of these areas have some parking allowed and this black area between dowell and folsom is bike parking. bike sharing parking. that's taking away parking for cars. >> it's actually existing. there are two bike share pods existing now. >> so they are already there apparently? >> yes. >> my other concern, you are cutting it down to two lanes, what are the buses? >> the 10 and the 12. i believe they recommended eliminating the 12 but there is a similar route. >> the problem is you are cutting down to one lane and in some cases you built the platforms for people to board the buses and the buses have to stop in the middle street for people to get on and off and all the traffic behind that is coming to a stand still and any buses behind the traffic is also coming to a stand still. so it sounds like a formula for grid lock. it's already crowded. i think putting some trees in and bicycle lane. but the buses, the people get off the lane and th

antonini: i have a question about these area plans because for example the transbay district plan has it's own extraordinary district fees that are particular to the building going on in there and buildings over a certain height if they got height bonus. did your plans include this in >> these include the area district plan fees. that area is an unusual case, we have the trd fees for each parcel. in market octavia we have a formal tiered where they have a second type of fee, they have a higher rate of fees for those high towers. >> rincon hill also? >> yes. >> there is a possible difficulty in determining those. is there a possibility of fees raise generally to help solve this problem? >> this legislation doesn't affect the transbay. >> i think we are getting the two things confused. this is a nexus study, this isn't changing any fees. >> right. >> so citywide. the city issue is the mellow roost. which is not an impact fee. it's a special taxing district. that is not addressed in this per say, correct? >> correct. this legislation doesn't cover that and also there is a scale question.

thank you commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i'm supportive i understand the motion includes the motion on park and prohibition on alcohol and tobacco. >> commissioner richards. >> a couple of questions the signage is the fenway that was received from one of the e-mails we had. >> the project sponsor posted some communicated outreach that included the jordan park improvements association and they misdemeanor the plans based on recommendations from the neighborhood. >> okay. >> and there's agreement. >> okay. great where's the closet alcohol sales around the site? i actually do not know maybe commissioner fong can answer (laughter) >> they moved across the street. >> commissioners there's a motion and second to approve this matter with conditions as amended by staff and print the sale of. >> commissioner antonini. >> commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner johnck's commissioner fong. >> commissioner president wu so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 7 to zero and places you under

. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. as i said i'm reading from what the staff report the way it would be before the more expansive staff recommendation this about applied to other things it says the market ct to permit the arresting cascades on the first and second floor and instead of other entertainment use so no where does it say it's limited by even though nature of the words themselves tare only speaking to the upper market ct and the rest of the motion calls for staff to study with recommendations to the supervisors to keep the discussion open for other parts of city but that doesn't has nothing to do with to the first parts of motion. >> i believe we have consensus we're only recommending to change to allow the arcades as described in the upper market mc t and the few minutes ago only applies to the mc t. >> commissioner richards it would be great to separate those before we get into the back and forth and not having the recommendation to apply it to citywide that's all. >> please call the question. >> all right.

. >> commissioner antonini. >> i'm going to move if i can an intent to adapt the sequa findings. >> the motion to intent to approve would be better with a coupled with a meeting in january. >> there's a motion to intent to approve the authorization and also my motion to continue to continuance to january 8th, 2015. >> second and commissioner richards. >> i think you pretty much hit a home run i like the 3 architects i wish scott wiener we had larger projects that had this confluence of design i like the amenities the courtyards are setting a standard what i look for in large projects in the future this is a wow. standard i like urging the local firms for hire i have a question on the rental affordability i know when we have affordability maybe director ram or staff sir, you, help refresh my memory. >> they've agreed to pay the affordable housing fee if on site they'll have to have a hawkins agreement in place as well as the affordable housing agreement and the only option on site the hallway sins e kins agreement the city grants them exceptional zoning congressman's or amenities in zoni

star read into the record >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i am supportive of the motion i thank everyone 40 who came to participate going back to the 1946 planning code that will be my first choice i'm supportive of the motion. >> commissioners, i think the people log anything you encounter mr. star that didn't occur right just you didn't want us on that would be a great idea for a formal report. >> commissioners a we have a motion and a second to adapt this resolution with - recommendation for approval it is amended and moved commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner richards commissioner fong commissioner president wu so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 78 to zero and places you on item 13 for case the urban forest master plan on november 6, 2014, after hearing and close the public comment it is continued and commissioner hillis and commissioner fong against. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm john sawyer with the department staff at our hearing on the uttering plan

. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah. i think that is raised sidewalk it will be effective and as far as any kind of speed bumps or things along the alley i think their helpful i speak from experience in our neighborhood we have streets people like to cut through a car can go fast and hit them but it don't a lot of damage if you try to do it fast and see i think that kind of thing will be positive whether you need approvals from other departments i'm going to support of the motion i still would like more parking but it seems like we don't have the roads to get the additional parking so we'll have to go with what staff approved it is regrettable people have cars and park them someplace it is inrealistic we how hard it is to get to one part of attain i don't know how you take a bus to north beach i i'd rather walk. >> commissioner johnson. >> thank you very much this is a far walk i would ride my bike maybe a quick question when i was reading the staff reporting i was confused whether i agree with them or not the streetscap

commissioner antonini >> yeah. in terms of the many irs i've read this ranges among some of the most complete and accurate alternatives this is a large project and hybrid between an diddle project we certainly need to have comments and responses to comments and a few things that came up and brought up and came to my attendance what the camper building and interest and possible being part of the development as opposed to be torn down and i'm not saying that is a recommendation but i think there is an analysis to the preservation alternative is in there which does allow for this but it allows for other things to be preserved that may not be preserved and this is something that will be addressed whether that's a possibility or hybrid between the preservation he alternative and the alternative that is a fashld one and, of course, the impacts that were brought up as the speakers the making have a building next door those are things we'll deal with as we move forward making sure the construction impacts are mitigated and
