it was convened by delores park works and attended by approximately 45 to 50 people. there were panel relationships that included relationships from the recreation and park department, neighborhood parks council, blue bottle and delores park works. it was also facilitated by delores park works. at the meeting we presented the blue bottle location and responded to the community's concern about having vendors in the parks. in response, we -- due to those concerns, we have agreed vehemently to monitor the operation, the initiative and the park and i want to point out if negative impacts on the park cannot be mitigated. the permits are fully revocable. president buell: thank you. do we want to hear public comment before we get commission comment? >> ok. elizabeth gibbons, julie flynn, daniella, rob lord, shakira finley. if you hear your name, please come forward. and deborah conscious. . . deborah -- thank you. >> my name is robert lord. i am the chair of delores park works. thanks for all the nice things said and thank you for the bathroom. that's a tremendous improvement

we love blue bottle, but we don't want blue bottle in delores park. so i see that park and recs needs money for delores park, and i think it was rachel who said come to the businesses and ask them to come up with ideas. sam from buy-rite i'm sure has wonderful ideas on how to raise money for delores park and the other businesses that surround there are willing and wanting to get involved in helping to raise funds with the use of delores park for the community, by the community, not by blue bottle. and i wish you guys would just think about what that will do to delores park itself. thank you. president buell: thank you. >> is there any other public comment on this item? being none, public comment is closed. president buell: commissioners. commissioner lee. commissioner lee: i recall when this item came before us. i had asked about the cart. and i was told it was a coffee cart, but we never -- we haven't -- this is, i believe, the first time i've seen a drawing of it. i guess my question is with this cart, is this something that's going to be there perma

that's been the reality of our neighborhood around delores park for the last five years. the overuse is well known and documented. i won't spend your time on that. the park is dead. there is very little green grass. it is mostly brown. the trash fills up. i invite all of you -- everyone invites you to come see things. come see our neighborhood. at 6:00 on a monday or sunday morning after every weekend the overuse and look at the trash buildup. look at the money that our city is spending to remove this trash. the extra garbage cans, the extra few porta-potties, and i agree, sir, they're very unsightly and i can see them from my living room window. it's astonishing the quality of life degrad days that has happened. there are plenty of coffee and food shops within a two to three-block radius. it's not about not wanting vendors in the park it's about wanting to keep the park as calm and less populated as possible. it is overused and it is well documented. thank you. >> rachel, steven, michael, jeff, dina open enshime, lucifer. >> hello, commissioners, thank you for the opportu

based on special events and a high population weekend but the truth of the matter is that -- the delores park community deserves more resources this issue is quite powerful, i know. that right now we only have one men's room and one women's rest room and we need to recognize the fact that this park is very loved. starting this week there will be six porta potties out there. joe dimaggio e.i.r. as you know we're excited about the opportunity to to renovate the playground. it is part of a large irproject with the san francisco branch library bond project. our playground renovation would be funded largely through, we hope, state grants through proposition 84. it is a project we're excited about. it has been before you a couple of times for discussion, but i just -- the planning commission is actually currently hearing public comment on the e.i.r. literally as we speak. we'll keep you posted -- as things develop. public meetings. a public meeting will be held this saturday from noon to 1:00 to solicit support for the tennis complex. this is an exciting opportunity for one of the city's -- for a p

park? so if this was delores parka fay putting a push cart in the park, would the community still be against it? good i think they would. i think that the community wants the park to be a public space. i think the community wants it to be a refuge from the urban grind of everyday life. there's a guy here today who practices tai chi in the park every morning. it's free to anybody who wants to come. he's done it for 20 years. they do it on the playground. to have lines of people waiting for coffee -- commissioner levitan: and a generator and, yeah. >> yeah, it's just going to change the flavor of the park. and i think people are upset, number one, because of the process. the community wasn't involved at all. and because, you know, you have chosen someone who's baseed in oakland, ok? that's where their business is based. they do have locations in san francisco, but they're a very, very commercial company. commissioner levitan: ok, but if it was you, if it was your company in the park, would people still feel -- >> i think they would have a problem with it, because the fundamental issue is, do w
