in western gnoma. gnome sonoma. >> yeah the destinations here, distinction here, all of the height the zoning districts in split height are larger lots above half an acre and so for half an acre to three ache retro customers the special zoning use calls them out and says we are going to give you some additional height but to take advantage of that height it require an additional use and one of those pro visions that instead of paying a higher tier impact fee you pay a tier one impact fee for residential but instead of paying 15% or providing 15% on site affordable it refers to the tier b for afford. and so you do a higher rate of affordability which, is 20% and exchange essentially and if we don't adopt these changes to thezoicking map and planning code, then none of those parcelels and that pro vision that increases the affordability could not apply to those zones split of hair son street. >> i think we are still going to get significant housing there and 15% affordable and it's going to be built at a

the only ones who have enthusiastic about this and who have stuck it out and sat through the western gnoma plan discussion and they wanted to make sure their support for the probability and so i'll ask them to stand and that will be the end of my remarks, thank you. >>> you can go back to work if you want to at the high rise. >> is there any further public comment? vice president wu? i'm done. >> student: okay seeing that public comment is closed. commissioners? commissioner borden? >>> yeah, i think this is an excellent prolong and it's great to see project coming forward in the tran as it center design district and i love that this connects with the park and i it's design is hasp superior to it's initial outline design for us to review. i do understand that there was a a conversation around the disielgt entitlement period for this project and for the disciple district that there is a five year entitlement period and i just wanted to ask if this project was getting it as well. >> and so the standard entitlement for the project is three years and various entitlement and is so for various o

>>> on had a motion, commissioners to adopt the sequel finding for the western gnoma community -- commissioners wu. so most commissioner that passes unanimously seven to zero. in terms of the owers we have in the past taken them together and if a make a motion to adopt all of them, and leave then the opportunity to amend it that the direction that we are going? well, high my understanding was since there so many different components and if you take each individual amendment action separately then commissioners could suggest what amendments to include for that specific action. >> my recommendation is to act on the amendments first and then on the overall. >>> all right i'm just since i start off with it, i'll make a motion to make an amendment with respect to historic resour and is that we adopt, i guess it would be option four, it would be buildings that are currently listed in the article ten as land marks buildings that are currently designated as categorize one 23 and four in article 11 and that individually eligible for listing in the national or state register and is buildings that are cur

project that we have had in past where other projects have taken advantage of this pro vision in eastern gnoma and other neighborhoods. >> 90 problem is that i don't have enough information to understand based on the information that you have given and the options i have in mind and given from a what we have just heard four seems to me the better of the land use options but again, i need more information to determine because we don't know how some of these buildings are being used or the types of buildings that they are and so i guess that may be when you are looking at the survey in the historic preservation commission, that i can that is something that can be discussed or something. >>> one thing just to point out and make this point again is that any existing office, use, legal in
