the conditional use is required because the wicket is less than 25 feet. the project is also considered a dwelling unit merger and as a proposal to transfer one the dwellings locked on the basement level to the newly created lot. this can be administratively approved since it meets the 4 out of 5 finding. a receipt from the street saying that they would be implicated in a negative manner. the staff recommend it that the loss of dwigs definition would be a more consistent scaled lot in this it's current size and that will be a dwelling that has more bedrooms and the proposed single dwelling is demonstrating sensitivity to the greater neighborhood >> thank you project sponsor. >> good afternoon planning commissioner. i'm a representative for the project sponsor. i'm here to project the proposal at the sweeney i didn't street a second lot from the corner of sweeney i didn't. we're planning to build a 3 story that's been petting put to waste for a very long time. the new building will enrich the neighborhood and improve the area as well as fill the empty space

that requires a conditional use permit. of course, at&t already knew this back in 2010 which is when it applied phenomenon for the permit today. so it so you get to upgrade this facility in march 2011 without first receiving the conditional use approval. in october 2012 a hearing was conducted and let them go free. vote to deny a permit for at at&t this location. thank you supervisors of the people of san francisco. >> things next speaker. >> good afternoon supervisors my name is steven. i'm a 55 year resident of san francisco and i live in district 2 for the last 40 years. dr. karpz letter mentioned that 4216 california street is a soft story building constructed in 1946. this bordering and mayor lee signed election requiring that the soft buildings to be seismicly retrofitted and upgrade. this was to protect the health and sate of the public during kwaekts. while the building at 4216 is a commercial property therefore falls outside of the legislation one would hope this board would have the same concern of the dentists th

and the staff recommends approval with the conditions and those conditions will be that as part of the building permit, the project sponsor shall submit additional construction details and describing the historic formed concrete wall to be replicated at the basement level of the facade for the department staff for review and approval and second that as prior to the building permit, the project sponsor shall provide product specifications for the new garage door and review and approval for the department staff and that the new doors will be of the design that is compatible with the character of the subject building and that concludes my presentation and there are represented from the garage the project sponsor here to drieb the project for you. >> good afternoon, my name is racel, and i am the project sponsor. the proposed project is to install a new garage in this 3 unit building in the historic district and proposing to remove the bottom portion of this bay to install the garage, and the current bay has a significant portion removed from the bay already and for the door, and this make

we should state some conditions. i'm supportive of the back patio to limit the noise for neighbors >> (laughter) . commissioner >> i don't think that precludes them from come back for a future date for another conditional use hearing. >> is there a motion? move to approve with conditions as set forth by the board and on that motion commissioners to approve as moved (calling names) so moved commissioners that passes unanimously 7 to zero. item fourteen has been continued to october 10th so this places you on 15. at 1700 union street. request for conditional use authorization >> good afternoon president fong planning department. at&t seeks to build a maximum 3 story building within the union street neighborhood commercial district. the proposal allows for 3 antennas and one antenna would be to mimic the remaining two antennas would face the northeast facade. there are health concerns and the need for the site, historic attributes of the building and there would be electric cabinets and would reflect the cabinet within

really up to the commission to determine how it wants to condition that's conditional use permit. >> thank you. there are a couple more speakers but i'm going to vote against this project it has indoor partnering and there's a need for a 24 pharmacy i would be in support of beer and wine to a reasonable hour at night. this is a side denim san francisco is closed quite earlier and i don't stay up to the wee hours of the night but after diner and i want to pick up bananas or cereal so if san francisco wants to become a greater city and i this you all see the city changdz people are working twenty-four hours a day under any circumstances it's not a 9 to 5 society anymore so combleer in certain areas where we go 24 hours commissioner borden >> one final thing about the cvc. people pay off neighborhood grasps to get a liquor licensing license or to detriment the neighborhood. we see them far too ouch and i would prefer your supporting the cvc prior already and not holding that over your heads >> commissioner moore. my understanding is it's a condition as stand not an advisory >> commissio

that would be another condition >> i don't know if we need to condition it because they require permits from back pedestrian so they will get a new permit and that will insure with the most appropriate equipment is in place. >> i have the idea that be cutting-edge at all times i want to raises the question so we at least have an understanding that we remain cutting-edge as the technology changes. i'm in support of the project and move to approve >> commissioner. >> yes. do you have a suggested language change in condition 3 or are we just invoicing here as an intent. >> the sponsor has requested the change we don't have any suggested language but if the commission wants to make that change go ahead. >> it's the commissions intention to support the sponsor. >> we can draft that with the commissions pd it will allow up to 12 years to install the back up generators but they still have to get the permit that will be allotted up to 12 years and in addition to the corrections that were noted during his presentation as well. >> is that - that's okay with the maker of the motion. >> gentlemen a

conditions. we would like to note that the last condition that has been proposed today would be especially difficult to determine if there was an alleged violation if it was an actual violation or not. but we do understand through supervisor wiener that the appellants have expressed they are willing to help provide evidence if a violation is alleged and this would be very helpful in our ability to enforce this last condition. thank you. >> thank you to planning. now let me ask if the project sponsor wishes to make any presentations for up to 10 minutes. seeing none, are there any members of the public that wish to speak in opposition to the appeal? seeing none, and then finally, is there any rebuttal by the appellant? okay, with that this hearing has been held and is closed. [gavel] >> items 22, 23 and 24 are in front of us. supervisor wiener. >> so, mr. president, i will make a motion to reject the conditional use granted by the planning commission and to adopt a revised conditional use consisti

adding, excuse me, to approve the project with conditions, adding four additional conditions, the first being that the project sponsor erect a temporary barrier between the pro-yekt and the verde club and that training of construction worker be made aware of the significance of the club and especially operators of the heavy machinery. and three, that the historic architect and a structural engineer establish a base line on which to evaluate the impacts from the construction to be presented to the staff to review and approval and four to mitigate any access to the verde club during the construction. >> perhaps we should eliminate the word approval just the review on the historic. >> okay. >> okay. >> is that okay with the maker of the motion and the seconder? >> yeah. i think that is all right. >> okay. >> and approval shall be stricken from condition number three that was added to the list of conditions proposed by the staff. on that motion, commissioner antonini? >> aye. >> borden >> aye. >> hillis. >> aye. >> moore. >> sugaya. >> aye. >> wu. >> aye. >> and fong. >> aye. >> so moved, t

i meant financial conditions, tighter financial conditions. >> oh, sure. part of the reaction we've seen. it comes from a number of sources. part of it comes from improved economic news, that's part of the reason rates have gone up in other countries, as well as the united states. to the extent that tighter financial conditions reflect a better outlook, that's a good thing. that's not a problem at all. part of it reflects views about monetary policy and that we want to make sure we get straight. that's why, to answer the earlier question again, it's why communication is so important. we need to explain as best we can how we're going to move and on what basis we're going to move. it's much more difficult today than it was 20 years ago because the tools are more complex, less familiar, but that's still very important. i think the other factor, which was at play, was an unwinding of excessively risky and leveraged positions in the markets and insufficiencies of liquidity meant unwinding led to larger reactions in rates that might otherwise have occurred. the

and we approved the drawing or the project according to the conditions, and one additional condition that just required the project sponsor to show up and work on the final details. and as start of the it if you will, it was not connected to the building permit. >> yeah i mean, don't even make it a condition. >> you know what i mean? >> it is done. >> and then, in keeping of the hall aday building, the buildings or the comments help them to refine the shop drawings and other elements that were still in play that were part of the approvele and that was a great role for the arc and good to have that kind of advice and we don't have to pay for it. >> the drawings prior to going to the shop drawings. and we would not want to be showing any of the building process down because these are details that would not have even gone to the fabricator. >> could we name it so that the sponsor is not over reaching and that the storefront is our prime concern is that what we want to see? >> right. >> the front and doors zme. entrance doors. >> yes. >> yes. >> if i may, commissioners. we have the shop

and basically this is to evaluate both the current conditions and possibly to set the conditions and even revoke the license altogether. thank you. >> thank you, for that information. >> noble, could you please come up and i think that we have questions for you. >> do you have anything prepared or would you like to make a comment before we going into the conditions. >> we do have one, one is a revised security plan and one of the other documents is demographic information and reporting crimes, that happened about and around 600 polk street. and i am sorry. >> all right. >> if you can say your name too. >> and who you are. >> sure. >> and then go ahead and start your presentation. >> my name is daniel baren and i am one of the owner, i have the manager and the assistant manager at noble. from the documents that you have been presented with, one is an updated security plan which is a security plan that we put together based on our experience in running the club, which i have involved with the club for three years and john was for a year ago and monte has joined us recently in the last

and we'll talk about tinder-dry conditions here, a battalion chief told me conditions are something they haven't seen in many, many years, they've said they're a month and a half way from sked when it comes to dryness of the grass and manzanita that is a problem here. >> vac waigs center has been set up north of the area, one couple decided to sleep in their car with their dogs because animals nort aloud inside of the building. >> this is a live picture now from our camera in the oakland hills, you can see that large plume coming up. >> yes. just about anywhere you are, you can likely see that plume this, is a live sfru walnut creek. >> the problem here is once we get tonight fall, really ability to do fire retardant is eliminated. whatever conditions you make progress and get pushed back again, it's challenging. dozens of horses and goats were people responded to a plea to help evacuate anlts from several ranches. those volunteers drove in to get get animals to safety. >> now, all smoke from the fire is fouling the air, air quality officials issued an advisory. sky 7 shows you here a la

they are conditional on the dates and have always been conditional on the data. secondly, even as we move from asset purchases to rate policy as the principal tool of monetary policy, it is our intent to maintain a highly accommodative policy and provide support necessary for our economy to recover and provide jobs for our citizens. >> to follow up on that question -- you said that you could pull back the purchases possibly later this year. you sound a little less certain that it will happen later this year. i would like to ask you to talk more about your conviction about whether the pullback is likely to start this year. where do you stand on that? i also don't think i heard you mentioned the seven percent unemployment number that you talked about back in june. that was the unemployment rate that was supposed to prevail when the fed was done doing this. is that no longer operative? >> so, there is no fixed calendar. -- schedule, i have to emphasize that. if the data confirms our basic outlook and we gain more confidence in that outlook and believe the three-part

so we'd ask you add that to the conditional use. another issue that we had concern with it seems revolved but the use of garbage cans being removed early in the morning but they have a plan in place we want to add no garbage activity >> is there any other public comment on this item? public comment is closed. commissioner borden >> i'm familiar with this cafe why do you inside the other space i don't know why the move i'm curious about the move. >> it's more of a question for the project sponsor. >> donates a great question. actually, it was a have small space and the landlord raised the rent and accompanied president coincidely there was a chance to move the store. there was another spot did you look at that space >> that was before my time and a thanks. >> good question. >> i mean it's a beautiful building and obviously their merging them and obviously pete's could use more space. it could have been a neighborhood servicing cafe now, it's a clothing store pop up >> thanks for the history. >> in terms of the motion it does have the

they are conditional on the dates and have always been conditional on the data. secondly, even as we move from asset purchases to rate policy as the principal tool of monetary policy, it is our intent to maintain a highly accommodative policy and provide support necessary for our economy to recover and provide jobs for our citizens. >> to follow up on that that you-- you said could pull back the purchases possibly later this year. you sound a little less certain that it will happen later this year. i would like to ask you to talk more about your conviction about whether the pullback is likely to start this year. where do you stand on that? i also don't think i heard you mentioned the seven percent unemployment number that you talked about back in june. that was the unemployment rate that was supposed to prevail when the fed was done doing this. is that no longer operative? >> so, there is no fixed calendar. -- schedule, i have to emphasize that. basic data confirms our outlook and we gain more confidence in that outlook and believe the three-part test i mentioned

>> it wasn't framed. >> that's what i mean. >> it's a condition. >> i would care it a condition with the project sponsor and how it's divided did you have to extend it to the corner. >> okay. i have a question about the grag business. we're saying yet the project sponsor has agreed to work with the other property owner to see how to combine the two but it seems to me that well - it would it seems to me that it would be difficult because we have an approved design and unless they're willing to have their design to serve the other property it would be a whole new design and we don't know what that design for the other building is >> we actually encourage the sponsor to look at this throughout the transportation study to consolidate those two driveways and in doing that we have a design as a variance in the document. so this design has been vetted by them. it's not been necessarily code checked by rich but we analyzed it for sequa purposes and we found no impacts >> to clarify. presuming it's not some dramatic change it would be approved by the zoning department >> very good thank you.

>> so commissioners that motion is to approve with conditions? >> as in the draft motion? >> in the draft motion. >> as poe proesed by staff? >> yes, could i sign up for that because of all of the corrections. >> we have the corrections related to it. >> thank you for that. >> i agree to that modification. so just for clarity, commissioners that motion is to approve with conditions as proposed by staff and corrected and red into the record, yes. >> on that motion, commissioner hylan? >> yes. >> johns. >> yes. >> johnck. >> yes. >> matsuda. >> no. >> pearlman? >> this is a hard one, i am going to say no. >> wolfram? >> yes. >> president hasz. >> so moved, commissioners that motion passes five to two, with commissioners matsuda and pearlman voting against. >> that will place us on item eight. 2013.0317a (lily yegazu: 415-575-9076) 901 battery street northwest corner of battery street and vallejo street. assessor's block 0135, lot 003 request for a certificate of appropriateness >> i make a motion to recuse mr. hylan? >> second. >> on the motion to recuse commissioner hylan?

that condition. not one person has asked to have their surveillance equipment or language struck from their conditions. it's mostly hours or some other conditions. i think what the panel said there that it's an opportunity. when a petitioner calls and says how can i protect my business? i suggest cameras. it kind of diffuses the situation if there is an allegation of misconduct by an employee. in fact we had one nightclub there was a homicide and that video was able to prove it was a justifiable homicide. we are going back to as what the supervisor said that we are crafting the language and softening the language and we are looking forward to doing business with any applicant in the future as well. the bottom line is it's been a big help for the police department. we are a progressive police department. there has not been a situation where we have requested video without a police report. if you don't give me video voluntarily i'm going the correct way with a search warrant. we ask that you provide th

we're seeing these conditions all over the board. inside the beltway through falls church, arlington, also looking good. 95 is delay free at this time. we had some early-morning construction there near the fairfax county parkway. all lanes are open heading toward the beltway and toward 395. 295 also looking good this morning. no big problems there heading in toward the 11th street bridge. if you're using 95 in maryland, that also has delay free conditions along with the bw parkway. 278, shady grove, moving along, you can see current conditions there. the headlights are headed toward us. there's light conditions as you head in from 395 northbound this morning. i'll send it back over to scott and jummy. >> 5:11 now. 48 degrees. coming up -- >> you're going to make it. >> it was the call that saved one man's life. and now, for the first time, that man is meeting the woman >> this is "good morning washington" on your side. >> welcome back. one of our top stories, president obama will address the un general assembly. he wants syria to tur

conditions change and we want to close those permits.s applicant did not obtain all of those approvals they have to go back and get their approval. >> thank you. >> i have a couple of questions. so the health and safety work that is being performed that they received, does this building fall under the soft story retrofit? >> i believe it may based on the visual that i saw it probably would have enough units and wood frame and it appears to have a soft story. i can't tell you. it's on the list today. >> do you think the permit that they have obtained will satisfy the requirements for the soft story ? >> no, this permit would not in anyway be addressing the soft story condition. there may be in the construction and repair to find the value. the soft story complying would have specific standard of performance defined in the criteria. >> if it building does require a soft story permit, they would have to do this permit and take out an additional permit to do the soft story. >> yes. unless they have proven their in compliance, that's one meth

and condition number 4 they must not block the driveways during this time and condition 5 is the project sponsor should minimize unattended vehicles and item 6 if the mta were to approve the deposit off zone that is the number of vehicle codes vehicles would be limited during during the morning and afternoon pickup times and they shall deliver a pickup and drop off plan to each family. so at the tuesday hearing planning department staff expressed we would work for the compliance of the conditions. further as given to us they were to provide evidence and staff noted without such evidence enforcement would be difficult. and they voted to reauthorize the c u plus those conditions as authorized by supervisor wiener and that concludes my report >> does not appear to be any. >> the board of appeals met and there was one item to be considered was an appeal of a - several building permits for 1050 val less than and hill and took the dr and heard on appeal of the deck and this was scheduled for an appeal late last week an appeal was filed so it was continued to the call of the chair and it will b

>> this is probably the worst one for unsanitary conditions. usually the criteria that we come -- commonly use is illegal activity, improperly dressed, those are the common ones that we revoke establishment permits for. >> okay. thank you. is there any public comment on this item? >> seeing none, then we'll take rebuttal. you have 3 minutes. >> first of all, i'm not sure what i'm trying to face. 1 minute all i hear is about unsanitary conditions in the department and the next thing we have all these allegations which you are like the book in 1984, probable cause, numerous citizens, on going investigation. nothing on paper, nothing that i can cross-examine, all of these violation, are we just talking about unsanitary conditions. now you heard, i'm not sure if mr. waush answered your question directly when you asked him if any establishments have been revoked just for unsanitary conditions and he said this is the worst, okay, it saundz -- sounds like the others were revoked for illegal activity. the whole list that i went through that the officer

and to ask you to approve conditional use 48 to 47. ; is that right? and i think transferring the liquor license to a restaurant benefits the neighborhood. and families and patrons of all ages are going to be able to come there. and what? let's see. oh, jobs. jobs. because with the kitchen you're going to have more jobs. and i have to tell you it's an amazing kitchen the state of the arc. so thank you for listening to me >> hope you do this because i love that bar. it's been the neighborhood bar for the city and it's the entire city. thank you. thank you >> and thank you for running that establishment for all those years. >> okay. thank you. any additional public comment. okay public comment is closed >> i hope you'll extend our wisdom as this moves into the next generation of management. it's been written in the paper a lot including the negotiations of the give and takes i'm extremely comfortable to support this and i hope the historic california community will support this >> i want to thank you for maintaining a wonderful place and welcoming the ow

conditions change and we want to close those permits. fs applicant did not obtain all of those approvals they have to go back and get their approval. >> thank you. >> i have a couple of questions. so the health and safety work that is being performed that they received, does this building fall under the soft story retrofit? >> i believe it may based on the visual that i saw it probably would have enough units and wood frame and it appears to have a soft story. i can't tell you. it's on the list today. >> do you think the permit that they have obtained will satisfy the requirements for the soft story

we can't take any more comments. >> i would like to approve this permit with the conditions, sorry, i am starting to get tired. with the conditions from the mission station as our accept and i think that it should at the bottom say, interior, sunday through thursday, and are admissible on the patio on friday and saturday and sunday and until, i would like to make that 8:00 p.m. to mitigate some of the complaints that you are having. >> so, there is a motion on the floor to approve it with the police conditions and the modifications to 8:00 p.m. for outdoor, is there a second? >> i would like to second it was an amendment that the sound outside not be more than 8 points, 8 db or the ambiane decibel levels in that neighborhood and in the city we use 68 as a mean number for the whole city and so 76 with the maximum decibel level outside. >> and i would accept that, that is fine. >> and so, 8 above ambient. and so 8 above 68. >> which is the code. i am just restating the code. >> so just one comment that i think, last time around, you know, i think that parker had suggested planting a rig

request for conditional use authorization. >> good afternoon, commissioners. mary woods of department staff. the cu before you is a request by the town group of boys to occupy the talented fine arts for a one-year term while its permanent main campus at 27.50 jackson street is being renovated. ~ the school has an enrollment cap on students. this will not change. the school will relocate about 200 kids from k through 4 to the towers of fine arts site. the cu is required because for the elementary school in a public zone, the department's recommendation is approve with conditions. this concludes my summary of the project. if you have any questions, i'm happy to answer. thank you. >> thank you. project sponsor, please. >>> thank you. i'm mark miller. i'm on the board of [speaker not understood]. i'm a san francisco resident and i've met many of you before when we took the jackson street project through planning commission approval about a year ago. so, thank you, commissioners, for considering our conditional use application for the palace fine arts. that's all,
