commissioner borden: it sounds really similar. i trust this project sponsor wants to do right by the community and do all the other improvements that will manage this. i would move to approve with the additional conditions of adding some language around queuing in item six under the conditions of approval. also, and a condition that the project will report back to the commission in a year about how things are going there. that is all. vice president olague: i think it is a great project. i think it is fantastic that somebody who was raised in the city opened up a business and it can become so successful. this is a type of business within current -- i think we are looking for to see more of in the city. independently owned. entrepreneurial. you have an idea. your creative with it. -- you are creative with it. to be creative with a sandwich and have such a successful shopping is very interesting -- such a successful shop is very interesting. congratulations. i live in an area which has experienced a lot of changes in the last few ye

president miguel: commissioner borden? commissioner borden: i think that commissioner suygaya and olague pretty much said what i would say. it's a great project. we really appreciate you that worked with the community, that you already, with the other projects you're in charge of, done a great job of making them a high standard of residential hotels. i've had the privilege of touring many of the residential hotels in the city. in the late 1990s i worked on legislation related to the hotels. i've seen a lot of the interior of them, hotels that have not been upgraded compared to hotels that have been upgraded and have walked and delivered meals on thanksgiving to residential hotel tenants and there's a huge disparity about the quality of conditions in which people live and what is our de facto affordable housing in this city because we don't really have much so i applaud you to providing great spaces and working with the neighborhood. i also agree with you about attaching conditions and get upset when we are being discrimina

commissioner borden: second. secretary avery: commissioners, on the motion to approve -- president miguel: commissioner sugaya? commissioner sugaya: i was just want to comment, in terms of the hours, could you talk about opening at 8:00 in the morning instead of 7:00 in the morning on the weekends? i think i know the answer, but -- >> my comment on that is our hours of operation are dictated by our customers. although it is nice to think that monday through friday is a typical work week, that is not actually the case. although we would have no reason to open up our pharmacy at 7:00 on saturdays to disturb any residents, if it became a need it based on the needs of the community, then we would reserve the right to want to open at 7:00. again, the access to prescriptions can sometimes be a very urgent and very timely thing. that is the only reason that we would like to be able to have the option of opening at 7:00 on saturdays and sundays. commissioner sugaya: i am not strongly with that one way or another. commiss

president miguel: commissioner borden? commissioner borden: i was selected for a jury and will not be at the regularly scheduled hearing next thursday and most likely won't be at the regularly scheduled hearing the following thursday. president miguel: i will just mention that i have met with people regarding 200 on market street, and some individuals regarding the cvs pharmacy project for san francisco. antonini? commissioner antonini: and i neglected to say i have two representatives of both of those same projects, also, within the last week, thank you. clerk: commissioners if there are no other matters, we can move to directors reports, announcements and review of the board of appeals, supervisors and historic preservation commission. >> good after noon. i just wanted to mention a cub hinges. two meeting next week to remind you of. i believe you have received notification. one is wednesday the 8th notification. one is wednesday the 8th. at 5:45. we are -- in fact, i am hosting a discussion of the housing element. that w

commissioner borden: i would tend to agree with commissioner antonini regarding a the d.r. as opposed to the c.u. i would love at some other time if we could maybe look at the definition of other entertainment uses, because i think that is also something that is controversy all. if a bar wants to put in a pool table, is that and other entertainment use? obviously, the supervisors don't have time, but i would love a further examination of those issues because a lot of them are not very big establishments and they could not even put in major-sized items. i am not comfortable with the rezoning of the c-2 because i do not know the implications of that, and i appreciate what you explained here. the one thing i am not clear on, the suggestion of how that would change the r.c. district. it is the goal to change those around the city? >> yes, it is to clarify and go back to the way the controls were up to 2008. this was something the department did also 1996. we realized it was a little out of date and we wanted to modernize that. after we did that, we realized that was an error. w

[reading roll] [reading roll] >> thank you.

commissioner borden: aye. commissioner fong: aye. thank you, commissioners. items four and five have been approved. commissioners, going back to item 3 on your calendar, again, this is case 2010.0118c for market street. >> commissioners, are you ready to hit this item? the item before you is case 2010. 1018c. the project is located in the mtc 3 moderate scale transit district. you may recall this project. it came before you last year. the item was -- the project was ultimately approved. there was an appeal of the mitigated negative declaration, and both the ceqa case and conditional use case were appealed to the board of supervisors where it was upheld. what is before you today is a request by the project sponsor to amend two of the conditions of approval from the previous project. there is no physical modification proposed to the exterior of the building. the only physical alteration is the elimination of two subterranean parking garages that would have housed parking spaces for the project. the project sponsor has altered that proposal to include staffers t

commissioner borden: i, too, am supportive, and i appreciate the project sponsor being able to share with us a little bit of the location. we have something on the calendar today, and i was wondering if you could talk to that. i know that was an issue for other projects in the area. we love the idea that it is going to be coming on-site -- online at the same time was in the market octavia area, which is obviously what this whole plan was about. i also agree that it is better to have less parking and more parking. people are less likely to move their cars more frequently, which is something this commission has been very supportive of. i do not think this constitutes a material change to the project or anything that would impact the neighbors in a way that they should be concerned about. they have less cars queuing and standing in front of their building, so that is actually advantageous for them. commissioner sugaya: in the past, we have had some requests to change the way affordable housing was going to be provided. and in the past, we have also heard from the mayor's office of housi

. >>> i'm johnny borden. i'd like to say hello daughter, brittany.erry christmas and happy new year. >>> millions suffer from heartburn and the holidays can make things even worse. that's because there's so much food at home and work parties and then there's the temptation to overeat on all those holiday treats. so the mayo clinic recommends avoiding triggers, things like cheese, desserts, alcohol and creamy beverages like eggnog. you know, all the good stuff. they also suggest eating smaller, more frequent meals, avoid lying down for a few hours after eating or drinking. if you can. >>> change coming to your cereal bowl. post will reduce the sugar content of its fruity and cocoa pebbles. the company is making that change to offer healthier options for children. post will certify both cereals as gluten-free at the same time. it's a protein that can cause allergic reactions in some people. >>> well, coming up, the royal coin controversy and why some are blaming the queen. >> this is karen and dave and we would love to say hello to our west coast famil

commissioner borden: there was an item on december 5 "conical" newspaper in the real estate column, and it makes reference to a project to a building -- the december 5 "chronicle" newspaper. i contacted the zoning administrator because i was concerned. we often have people come before the commission saying that it was a shock to us that it was a single family home. our zoning administrator contacted the realtor, who said that the newspaper misrepresented what was conveyed. i wrote a letter to the newspaper asking them to print my letter to the editor pointing out that. indeed, the property is actually zoned for five units. not only is it sold for five units, it was turned down for a dwelling unit merger in 2005 by this commission. the newspapers did -- the newspaper said they are not the real estate police and that the properties and a listing. we checked it. the point is if you see something advertised in the paper even on the real-estate page, the likelihood is that it is owned in a way for multiple dwelling units and that you should check into that because we do not like the demoliti
