no documentation was provided by the applicant. during that time, the applicant admitted she could not operate because she did not get clearing from the department of public health. the code is allowed to suspend or revoke a permit. there was a fire mobile food truck, the applicant immediately came back informing us that we suspended the permit knowing that they would have suspended operation and permit revoked. suspended operation until the truck was repaired. in no time again did miss lewis contact the department to inform us of this situation. it was o.j. -- only after that we found out that miss lewis was not in operation by her own admission in this case. the department has no choice but to revoke the permit. there was no attempt to contact to inform us to allow her time to find whatever accommodations to satisfy her requirement. >> when you say you have no choice, what do you mean by that? >> typically, okay, if you are not going to be in operation, the expectation is you would contact the department for whatever reason. >> o

it does better with diversity and with the applicant pool. when we sat with the presentation, all the answers were good and it seemed to be that it satisfied a lot of the things that we were hoping to get done. >> mr. turman? >> commissioner loftus answered one of the questions i wanted to ask about peg groups. but since that question i heard something i want to clarify. hiring processes and applicant testing and on boarding is something i built a career around. i get a little nervous. gentlemen, i'm looking at this presentation and it's great. the first thing i do when i get a presentation like this, is i look for the areas where there is an ability for subjectivity to come into play because we want things, the more objective, the more we can measure, the more we can find, the best qualified applicant and the best qualified applicant i believe come from a diverse pool and make-up the best class. i do however, i'm a little concerned when i hear things that look like city san franciscans. i'm a little concerned when i hear things like look lik

we have made it very clear in this committee these applications require that the applicant come before us having done a great deal of outreach to the district and the entire community and i want to thank mr. davis for really making it easy for us to support this, this application, because you clearly have done your homework. i know there was a comment made about south van ness. i know we have been working to try to fill that space for quite some time. i think we had a conversation with grocery outlet and that was a consideration and who knows what is going on happen. notwithstanding the lapse in judgment of moving to berkeley i think this is a good thing and i am happy to support this and i again want to thank the applicant so if we could have a motion to move it forward with a positive recommendation and a motion by supervisor mar. if we could take that without objection so without objection the item moves forward. thank you very much. before we move to the next item just to be in abundance of caution even though supervisor yee has been replaced at the meeting with supervisor avalos i

as i said, every application. increasingly, what has happened is highly specialized applications. i will give you one example of that. dealer track. they actually do loan origination software for automotive loans. today, basically 80% of all the loans in the united states are processed through their software. we will see much more of this. we want to talk about not as public companies, tons of this. all of these guys uses the original cloud service. a lot of people have asked me why we call it a cloud. what does this come from? it is pretty simple. in the old days of client-server computing -- some of us were around them -- we would draw a picture of a pc, a picture of a unix server, and then a picture of a little clout in between. mostly because none of us understood how networks work. for the old folks in the room, you may remember certain words. this is all communication technology developed for corporations to build their own networks. that sounds like crazy talk today, right? nobody does that anymore. everybody is using ip, mpls- based networks. that is the network cloud. the

for us and whereas manatt drops the other application and most recently the tiger application and so they know that but manatt is more skilled on tifia, are they delivering and are we getting what we need and we have to date so far. and it is, it is a huge project, and large project, that they are building and it involves, many stake holders and as you know, san francisco, the east bay, contra costa and counties and it involves the federal rail road administration and the federal transit administration and all of the development that we are doing and that is why necessitate this level of support and they have been really helpful to date. and our we have received, nothing but good words from our leader staff on the good job that they have been doing and so that is another measure to us is what do the congressional reps think. >> since you mentioned it, it might be helpful at whatever point to give us an update on where we are with tifia. >> yeah, i know. i can give you that now. >> we are still awaiting our fitch rating and we were expecting to get it in mid august but they had some m

this says in the permitee's application packet for review. and everywhere in each one of those. >> good. >> so the word application before packet. >> got it. >> commissioner lee? >> so you want to scratch the hoa? >> i am curious why. so through the discussions with the staff, and it has come to my sort of understanding that we are not to give too specific of instructions to people, and one of the reasons that i asked them to go through this process is so that they can prove to be worthy of having. so, if we are going to be lifted the neighborhood and community groups and hoas will be lifted among them, however, i don't think that, putting hoa as a specific group where you are just saying neighborhood or community groups afterwards. and i don't think that we need to, i think that they will be in the list and i think that to call them out, and it should just be very broad. because the confusion sometimes i mean a lot of the new clubs are and a lot of the clubs are being surrounded by condos that have a lot of hoas and i know that the hoas want

that is what this application is capable of doing. >> we should discuss more about the applications later. we do take the first break on our program. when we come back, we will continue our cover station with dr. tzi-cker chiueh. see you in just a few minutes. >> welcome back to the second segment of today's program here on the "taiwan outlook. oh we're continuing our conversation with dr. tzi-cker chiueh, the director of the mobile cloud computing center. what is the state of cloud computing industry in taiwan? >> we should look at it from a global point of view. there are two types of businesses in the cloud computing space. what is the cloud service writer like google and facebook and amazon. the other category is cloud solution provider. these are the people who provide solutions for cloud services, provide the data center and services. it could be hardware or the usual suspects like ibm, hp, dell and the software would be like microsoft. in this global cloud space, we want to think about where taiwan should position itself in this space. we eventually decided we want to focus on the

the applicant has come to one of our community meetings. we did inform them of the other community groups therapy told to go to other community groups they've done that. they've done what's been asked of them and they've obviously, the owners have other establishments so they know what they're getting into so - you know, i think the thing is your obligation is to go through a check list to meet the requirements so your due diligence has been met so it could be to our favor to approve the applicant and mitigate 31 any outstanding things you think are on the permit but they obviously seem to have all the things that are required. the district 6 is in favor of getting the permit their q and we looked to working with them in the next few years to make sure they stay as a good community partner the same way we did with the money arc. at the same time, we had the same kind of concerns of a night club in the area and they turned to be a good neighbor >> thank you. any more public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. and the matters with

and may require the applicant to refile the application, based on the base line condition. the zoning administrator's states that it is an illegal use and that we have for this issue with aau and included the existing illegal use as a base line condition, but not in this case. and don lewis states as for the sequa documents i am stated that the project is vacant because there are no structures on the lot. when i visited this site a year ago there were a dozen cars parked. and as you know, we don't find the loss of parking on the impact of the entirement. but we do. and we are, we have two express ways that join south and east at the south end of potrero and the reason that people live and work in this neighborhood because of the easy access to the express way, there is predominantly commercial vehicles that do not provide parking and the club relies on the parking too, and when the neighborhood plan was formulated it was obvious that the traffic flow was not... >> thank you, ma'am. >> next speaker please? >> good afternoon commissioners i am sorry my voice is going. thank y

they've not changed the code those are minor applications. they fix a technical bfrn mark and we want to make sure that if someone eyes retrofit a and c they have the same sizeable earthquake sate. the construction organization who worked tirelessly for the bench mark study. this was approved naems by the full code advisory committee and by the building inspection commission. it adds discolor requests to basically add two questions the first question was this building part of the retrofit program and simply was the work done. a very clear definition. the third thing is establishes an appeals process through the board of xrmz. you may not be familiar with them but underneath the building inspection when the design is some complex. we don't anticipate those will end up but we want to make sure we add 3 seats to the public xrmz who are to be required to be a service expert and won a prosperity own and the other member a tenants. those are appoint should the board need to meet. with that said. i want to say thank you to the department of building

so, first, you have the application phase of the process. then it goes to an evaluation phase, lease preparation phase, and then the lease execution phase. and the initial contact from the prospective tenants usually comes in the form of a telephone call. and staff has an in-depth conversation with the inquiring party to ensure the uses are compatible with the waterfront plans and the facility. and once that test is met, then we instruct them to start the application process. and as part of your package you received our lengthy application. ~ in one of the exhibits. so, the first application of phase is mostly paperwork and fact gathering. then we go to the valuation stage. and the lease is -- the application is not only evaluated by the real estate staff, but we have a host of regulators that like to pay attention to what we're doing. we have historic preservation. we have building code. and we have a lot of partners within the port staff, like the engineering department and the planning development department that help us get through that

next speaker. >> hello richard may i tenant applicant. first of all, i would like to say it's a great thing that the city recognize that are many structures that need to be retro if i had so that's a good thing your maund that. and second fall supervisor kim hit on it when she talked about how many people are virtually infinitely and can't afford this even though it will be a mandatory expensive for they're part. but i think it's a great there's a probability this process could be streamline. again she made mention of the fact that even though people were eligible for the subsidy they have to wait many months to get through that process and in the meantime they have to pay the rent or so some 3 day notice. even though they would be inadmissible for rent are some kind of expectation they have to come up with this money. i want to point out many people that pay this year on fixed incomes. i urge you to pass so the people who are eligible will get the benefits of this quickly. >> thank you. next speaker. >> so i think the supervisors that ar
