it's not a foot, a foot and one inch, i guess and make your panels flat. that would be the motion to approve. >> so you take a foot -- say it again. >> well, the floor to floor now i understand looking at these plans is 14.1 for the top floor. and my motion is to drop that one foot, one inch to 13' total exterior floor to floor height and put only flat solar panels on the top. >> i second. >> commissioner borden? >> i would say, you know, what is really hard about this, this was a discretionary review, i would be whatever, to be honest, in terms it's a code-complying project, et cetera. but i have a harder time wrapping myself around the necessary -- desirable. if you get to live in this unit it's desirable, but if you don't, it's a hard thing to argue necessary or desirable for. in fact, i have not seen anyone other than the project sponsor articulate and even then i look at what the staff wrote. there is nothing really compelling in the necessary or desirable space. and views are not protected. i know everyone here knows that. but i do believe that when

that is fine with me, drop a foot off of there. it's not a foot, a foot and

it's not a foot, a foot and one inch, i guess and make your panels flat. that would be the motion to approve.

the radius clause, there are six of these restaurants within the 300-foot radius. bathroom access. what bathroom access will espresso subito provide. we ask the question because our group must comply to regulations to health and ada issues and the increase in mff results in our group having to turn away walk-ins from the street. asking to use the bathrooms. our just to use the table and chairs to sit down and eat what they bought out on the street. last, adequate notice, we are not aware of adequate notice or any such notice that had been provided to the effected business and building owners within the 300-foot radius, if proper steps had been taken, perhaps we could have shorten the discussion of these above issues. please, over turn this approval for the second street and 150 california locations as they will be within the 300-foot radius of starbucks and many others. in doing so, restores balance to the permit process. i have another statement for a person who had to leave. shall i end mine and begin the next one or sit down and someone else speak? >> you still have time. go ahe

a low of $29 per square foot, and then we have several in the 40s to 48.50 a square foot. so, those are the comparable rentals. again, it's refleck i have of the discussions we've had previously, particularly for properties in south of market, that their rates are moving very fast. so, this particular instance, in addition to the base rent we're responsible for costs that are outlined in the budget analyst's report accurately on page 4, and that brings our total cost of occupancy to $27.24 per square foot per year over the course of the next calendar year. so, again, in comparison to the market, we believe that's less than fair market rent. if you like, i'll give the presentation on 760 harrison. >> that would be great. >> all right. so, this particular request is retroactive acceptance of the second of two five-year options for renewal. this property is located between third and fourth on harrison. i have a map to get you oriented. this is dph's south of market mental health services clinic that occupies the whole 13,000 square feet of the property. this particular lease

we were required a five foot setback on the east but not on the west side with an unusual 15 foot front setback. we had been discussing a mutually acceptable agreement with the project sponsors that addresses our concerns while respecting theirs. we are happy that part of the revised proposal to use light gray color on the wall, stucco siting and opaque glass material where the habitable areas are and translucent materials where the deck is to ensure privacy. this is where the privacy concerns come in. it's on the second page. you see what they proposed here for sort of colors and glazing that we like. at the very rear you see where the planter is. these two-bedroom windows, actually there's four bedroom windows on the top floor look directly in this area and they can look directly in theirs. privacy issue is a major concern and it was not addressed. the project sponsor did suggest extending the glass material to the rear, but we have not seen it in any form submitted to us. also, we asked for a five foot setback on the wessel vation which faces our homes. nor [speaker not understood] i

at the front originally this building was proposed with a ten foot setback. the staff asked that they move the front back, and they did just that, they moved it back 15 feet on one side, and 12 feet on the other side. and the staff has asked that it be moved 15 feet all the way. the reason for the set back is to make it in compliance with the residential guideline supposedly but if you look at the residential design guidelines that shows an illustration, which is almost identical to the building that is being proposed. a setback of the top floor to take it away from a street view, and there is no building on the street that has a 15 foot across the board setback so we don't think it's reasonable to ask us to move it from 10 to now the hybrid of 12 and 15 all the way to 15 and take i way living space. second, the staff has asked for there to be a further concession on the side setback in the rear. the project sponsor did originally had no side -- well, there are side setback on the property in general that aren't required that project sponsor came in to begin

but foote was the man on the front lines out there. managing the construction of these seven -- six so-called turtles. they were ironclad river gunboat, shallow draft. they drew only six feet of water. that were in some ways the most innovative naval weapon in the western theater, in the first year or so of the war. and you've got this situation where the navy, the river navy is really a branch of the army. that was later changed in the summer of 1862, congress actually brought entirely under the navy department. without foote i don't think that would've gotten off -- this is the wrong expression. this would have gotten off the ground.

a projection into the rather yard with you in order to qualify the bay widow you have to have a 7-foot head clearance and so they can have a pais bay widow on the third floored but not the second widow because it's expanding the widow on to the deck there and it appeared from the rendering that the rendering didn't have that and so may be it was a drafting error that the bay widow was not on the third plan and so certainly that would need to be addressed of the. >>> do you have any revision on the blueprint. >> they are using the bay yard averaging, i don't have clear photos on the adjacent property to the -- i don't know what direction it would be to the left, i don't have the north arrow on the plans unfortunately yes, unfortunately there is no but the property that does have to pop out we want make sure that,that is at least two stories in height it appears that it is and in order to qualify you have to be at least two stories high and so we want to conform and i look on some aerial photoing's on the ipad and it confirmed that and that is why i suggest if you go adopt revised plans

i want to comment taking it down from the top, the 15 foot setback from the street is something which this commission has asked the department to consistently implement. it's not 11 feet. it's not 12 feet. it's 15 feet where it occurs on the street side of a property which is larger than two stories, because this particular setback should not be seen from the front. so it's really not an issue to question, but just to accept because this commission has used this rule and over the years had the department strong implement the same 15 feet wherever that type of condition occurs. on the second one, regarding the garage door, that is also a guideline which this commission consistently supports when a facade of a residential building has, as its main feature, a garage, we do not want to look like suburbia but we want to keep the width of the garage typically at 10 feet in order to deemphasize that indeed the garage is an element we accept, however the door itself cannot be larger. that is, again, a rule which is consistently applied. now comes the question about the massing of the building

all around pennsylvania and new york picked up around a foot of snow, with connecticut coming in at 6 inches. we do have the winter storm warnings and advisories still up across connecticut and northern rhode island and there is a chance we could see an additional foot or more of snow across new england. we're almost done across southern new england. we also have very strong wind gusts especially along the coast of new jersey an area that does not need additional wind damage. we did pick upwind gusts up 70 to 75 miles per hour but these are easing too. >> such bad timing. so many people trying to get home. >>> well, president obama is aboard air force one right now and some lawmakers will weather the storms to return to washington today with just five days left to avert the fiscal cliff. now all eyes will be on the senate after house republicans said it's up to them to reach the deal. nbc's danielle leigh is on capitol hill. what's the latest? >> it's another day and another standoff. john boehner may not even bring the house back to town until the senate comes up with a possible plan

." >> so you wouldn't dispute the 1005-foot measurement? >> we haven't done a review of that, so i couldn't dispute it. >> okay >> is there any public comment on this item? seeing no public comment, mr. girardi, you have three minutes of rebuttal. >> thank you. what i said i was at the merced playground and unable to walk on my own and find cambon. it's not -- it's not an easy path to walk, although some computer systems it's .5 miles to walk. i guess i'm going to lean on what you said is that the parcel containing the mcd, the parcel could be -- the leasehold, the space that we leased for this project is a parcel of land. and if you measure from the parcel of land where the mcd is to be located, and you measure to the merced heights playground, it's over a thousand feet. it would be unfair to tether the entire stripmall. it just doesn't make sense to attribute the space to the mcd for the entire parcel, the parcel we leased is where the mcd will be and as a result we are outside lient you went the route of a dr request? >> that is correct.
