the project provides a dwelling unit mix of 45 one-bedroom and 30 two-bedroom units. they will meet their incollusionary housing affordablity requirement by designating their on-site as affordable. the project would require 14.5% be designated as the base project, which for the base project of 55 dwelling units, would have been eight units. however since the project sponsor has elected to designate 20% of the base project, 11 units are going to be part of the on-site incollusionary housing program, and this allowed them to qualify for the maximum density bonus of 35%. since the project included rental housing, the project sponsor has entered into an agreement with the city and county of san francisco, and the project sponsor is continuing to work with the city attorney on this agreement. this agreement is not yet finalized, but is required to be executed at the time of the first construction document. the site is located within the mission interim zoning control area, and as required, the motion relevant topics for the commission consideration as it relates to the pro

i mean, i wouldn't -- i'm -- i mean, we need three bedroom units. two bedrooms may work for him or something like that, i suppose, but i hope that you would actually increase the square footage, and if you can fit in two units, that would be great. thank you much for your time. >> president hillis: thank you. any additional public comment? >> good evening, commissioners. i'm actually the project sponsor. my name is kieran hardy. >> if you were the project sponsor, you had to speak during the presentation time. >> okay. >> president hillis: we may have questions for you. any additional public comment? seeing none, commissioner johnson? >> commissioner johnson: yeah, i can't be supportive of this. if you look at this lot -- if you look at the buildings adjacent to this lot -- to the left, i'm not sure if that's east or west, they're multiunit, and clearly, there's -- some excavation had to be done to get some units in there. that hill isn't just there by itself. so i'm open to whatever other commissioners have to say, but i really feel like this is a

it would remove a wall to create a 3 bedroom unit. the unit would be occupied by the owners. in addition to the conditional use findings, the commission must also consider separate criteria outlined in section 317g2. although the merger would not remove a unit that's considered affordable as defined by the rent stabilization and arbitration ordinance because it is a condominium. the merge of two units would create a unit that's more unaffordable to a larger percentage of the population. the second unit was occupied by tenants between 2011 to 2016 when the owner completed a buyout agreement with the tenant. the agreement would go against our late mayor's directive that all housing should be preserved there. there northeast design deficiency. while it was entitled as a hotel, it was developed as a 254-unit condo building, meeting all code requirements when they were built. to, the department has received six letters in support of the project, and two letters in opposition, all of which have been provided to you. after anal in addition -- after all analysis, it's recommended dis

the level below, part of the same unit, contains the three bedrooms and bathrooms. this fourth level will be set insignificantly from the overall footprint with setbacks at front and rear, as well as the north property line. the decks we've provided are a result of the setbacks. as indicated on the drawing, this represents just 58% of the overall building footprint and is the result of extensive shadow studies we've done during the design process. these shadow studies, which are in the back section of your packets, look at shadows created during the summer and winter solstices and spring and fall equinox. they look at the impacts in 2-hour intervals throughout the day from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. importantly, they also compare the existing shadow conditions with the future conditions. this comparison was omitted in the appellant's limited shadow study presented to the planning commission. interestingly, we've heard a lot about the devastating shadows we will be causing, yet the appellants have not presented any evidence of those claims. taking the existing shadows

many of these buildings, including ours, have a studio and one-bedroom units whose only windows are on a light well. often these units are occupied by low and moderate income te nranlsz. i was happy to hear that you asked for light well protection at the last hearing but disappointed that the department responded with a guideline that requires, quote, matching light wells to at least 75% of the length of existing ones and similar depth, unquote. the zoning administrator has testified before you on many occasions that proposals tend to push proposed envelopes right up to the minimum requirements of the code. and so with a guideline that quanitifies 75%, we are sure to see new light wells, 25% smaller than existing adjacent light wells. light in the air will be severely decreeds. in some cases it will result in 100% blockage of light and air. so, while these people are low and moderate income in rent-controlled apartments and they're not able to pick up and move to a new home when they lose their light and air, i would like to suggest this rephrasing, and i'll change -- that quote, new l

the individual tenant's rental unit, and therefore, a landlord needs a just cause to evict a tenant from these areas. i would ask, would you allow an owner to remove a bedroom to turn it into an adu, so this is the same context of remaining design housing services from these tenant's units, and i'm pretty sure you have a mandate to preserve and not diminish rent controlled housing units as they're currently defined. these garages and storage spaces are all part of their current leases and rental units, so i ask you to take discretionary review and honestly, i feel the city attorney should get involved in this building. >> good evening, commissioners. i'd like to point out many problems with this project, and one of them is the elimination of the bike parking. i don't believe you can approve a project that removes bike parking. allow me to explain, please, and bear with me. parking is required in the rm-3 zoning district. removal of parking, even when it does not provide the size requirements of the code, requires a variance. replacement of vehicle parking however is permitted on a 1:1 basis with bike parking. this apartment building has no vehicle parking b

we often complain that we're jamming two bedrooms into a 750 square foot unit, so i'm -- so i'm glad to see kind of larger two and three bedrooms here. i don't know if that's signed the way you wanted or just kind of a design of the density rules. you know, that kind of question about a vanness entry or union street, there is the two retail entries on -- on vanness with, you know, retail glazing through -- throughout that side. commissioner koppel. >> yeah, echoing commissioner richards' comments, i'd feel better if the enter rabs was on vanness, and i'd at least like to see another option explored with a density bonus that would give you a couple of extra floors which would allow you to have the affordable on-site, and also some type of earl change on the external of the building to differentiate it from the building. >> can i say a few things? >> sure. >> okay. so i'll start with the material because i am also the architect for the other building so i know the buildings pretty well. the buildings are pretty. the other billion, we're using a masonry. this is a precast system that we'

bedroom and bath. the attempt to get a family-sized unit of three bedrooms -- sorry, that's the view from the front. it has not changed substantially. in the prior version, you could not see the top floor. i will start at the top. the roof deck that's been added to meet the open space is narrow and set away from the light well. that's a revision from after meeting with neighbors. we have the roof deck up closer to the front. this is an outline so you can see how it's divided with, again, the missing third bedroom and bath. we took out a portion here to accommodate a more reasonable unit for the top floor here and that part of the floor. it works nicely because the entry is part of that, before you walked past a different unit to get in. 318, which is behind, is now on three levels. it does take over what was previously storage. there is no storage now. and that's become a bedroom, bath and family room with access to the yard. it did make it not possible to also have the upper unit come down to the garage and go through to the yard. so that's what generated the need for a deck on top. also, with inte

it replaces one unit with three and three bedrooms with eight bedrooms. it closely conforms to rm1 zoning and the period urban design. appellants did not oppose demolition at the planning commission or here. they presented no evidence that the planning commission approved its description in approving demolition. what appellants are seeking is removal of the 4th floor, which would eliminate a family-size limit in violation of the housing act and the owner's plan. they got everything they asked for except that 4th floor being eliminated. the planning department realized that would eliminate one of the units. they never presented with a plan that shows how three family-sized units could be accommodated in three floors. the only way is to eliminate the garage. one to one parking is required in this district. every other building has ground floor parking and living above. the california legislature's strength of the housing account and the act. it prohibits city to reduce the projects that meet the density code. appellants have presented no evidence that remov

these two units would still be 600 square feet larger than our current 2 bedroom, 2 bathhouse. and the new configuration will result in two affordable homes as opposed to one overpriced unit. they've already illegally demolished the building's interior and made every square foot less affordable. there is only one way to mitigate that fact now, but including two smaller units. we believe the illegal work done thus far was orchestrated through a very purposeful of serial permitting compounded by grossly inaccurate plans from the beginning. please don't reward this developer for extensive illegal work or allow the affordable house with one that's unaffordab unaffordable. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> i want to introduce these letters of opposition to the development. >> just leave them right there. >> i'm rick goldman and i'm a homeowner that lives at 230 state street, a few buildings up from the project. i oppose the c.u. application and support the planning department's recommendation to incorporate a second unit. as a resident of this neighborhood, i've fough

we say two bedrooms is a family unit when in fact we have a lot of people who need three or four bedrooms. so we have an exodus of larger families from the city. i'm looking at the castro where i live and there's spillover and all kinds of other aspects from police to homeless and wondering what are any adjustments that might be needed in the future to better serve that population. we went through it with the aids epidemic and with the aids epidemic, there was a need for different kinds of facilities than you would find at san francisco general for example. much more community based nursing as opposed to doctoring. and then i look at what's happening with the addictions and i think it's almost residential rehab programs but those programs have to include occupational rehab and physical rehab. and i'm not sure that i'm seeing anything underway and i just want to know if what you're looking at in construction is going to help us as we meet the city's needs. >> can i address that? so one of the concerns i have about this bond is the sort of kitchen sink nature of it and what we're starting t
