. >> commissioner o'brien. >> so, if i understand, you're talking about making this ordinance effective city-wide? >> cottage food ordinance is effective city-wide, correct. an accessory use provision would be made across all zoning categories. accessory use requirements would be across all zoning categories. >> so, i'm trying to understand exactly what would the planning department do. i mean, so, they don't have to get an approval from the planning department. if it's an approved activity city-wide, do they? they don't have to check that it's zoned for this or anything like that because it's approved city-wide already. >> there is still a referral at the staff level to make sure that the proposed activity matches what the planning code describes. so, for example, if someone proposed -- had a diagram or drawing and they were using half of the space, the planning department would be the one that says, no, you're only allowed to use a third of the space for the accessory use. and, so, even though the general category is allowed, the planning department staff will still have a role in mak

. >> commissioner o'brien. >> i'd agree. thank you for your presentation. i have a couple thins to say. one, i am a victim of getting a green zone for the purposes of giving temporary parking for three different businesses operating out of that building. within a week a relatively close neighbor saw a golden opportunity and used it to park her car there between street cleanings which occurred once a week and i didn't appreciate the outcome that happened after all the trouble we went to get the green zone. she graciously come to the realization that that's not right and she doesn't do it anymore. i would definitely support the idea that there's a time limit for people parking on the green zone, handicap or not. two, just wondered if, for the purposes of pr, probably more than anything else, have you ever considered having a different colored placard that identifies somebody who may have a handicap that's a hidden handicap so that people -- we see someone who apparently looks like they could compete in the olympic 100 sprint dash and claiming they got a handy

department to see about eliminating the zoning referral fee on an administrative side. >> commissioner o'brien. >> well, i think you kind of played into what i was going to comment on. i kind of agree with commissioner dooley. kind of an absolute is not a good way to go. rearguely, i think as commissioner dwight alluded to, we just don't have the information that we need. it could be the planning department would come in here and convince us, oh, this is absolutely fair fee because it's so small. and, yeah, we should go forward for it. we don't know enough to make a decision on it. that's my personal opinion. i can agree with commissioner dooley on that point we should not say a prohibition. i think if i understand what you're saying is we're approving the ordinance and just putting an asterisk beside the fee and say please investigate this fee further, in so many words. i think that's what i understood you to say. >> great. so, that would be a friendly amendment to commissioner irene yee riley to say put in the ordinance not to do it, but, so -- >> i just don't agree we should say it should d

. >> commissioner o'brien. >> yeah, one more question. so have you kind of defined a ratio of number of parking permits that are out there to the number of parking spaces that are out there? and i'm wondering what that relationship is in comparison to the number of total cars out there to the number of total parking spaces. part of it is -- i'll probably go along with increasing the number of parking spaces dedicated to the blue zone, but with mixed feelings because i'm always /tprus frustrated when i'm hooking for a parking space, but it always seems the handicap spaces are empty, but i know that's an emotional reaction because i'm frustrated. i'm trying to do the right thing, but i want to make sure that it's the sensible thing. so the ratio of total number of cars in san francisco, the total number of parking spaces in what it looks like in relation to the number of parking permits to the number of parking spaces. >> the approach we took is to recommend the city increase the number of blue placard spaces to be consistent with the amend
