fees and particularly the transit impact development fee or t.i.d. f so just for the benefit of the public the t.i.d. f didn't apply at all to residential development; right? >> yes. that's correct. >> so all the unit going up in different parts of the city are not subject to the requirement of foes the residential requirements are not paying the fees. >> part of that they're paying. >> part of the area plan fee. >> but in terms of that no. >> if you're building a commercial office building you're paying the t.i.d. if but residential not. >> that's correct. >> and two floors of commercial and 50 floors you're paying on the two floors that's commercial. >> that's correct but in this southern certain plans people go to transportation. >> in terms of of the amount of that the amount is going to transportation it paltz in comparison to the citywide impact foes. >> it depends on the district what the rate it in some areas it is barely comparable and some not. >> for example in market octavia or in eastern neighborhoods we're projecting or excuse me. colle

changer our hours or shut down we should live up to the terms lastly i think probably the motion impactful the legislation says in development near a venue and something is seeking to leased or purchase one of the residential units the seller or the lease our has to 0 disclose a venue nearby that's a simple here's a heads-up within 3 hundred feet may impact you on friday and saturday night we see examples of people coming to visit comedies they spend the first fire hydrant and it's a different world and calling the police and conflicts between the venues so that's ultimately wasn't the legislation seeks to do prying to reproximity them getting the processes in place so the residents are happy and the venues can continue to serve the public so we're building the houses in so doing we have to protect the rebates they wanted to buildings here in the first place so lastly i want to thank the diverse coalition of supporters from the legislation and the california music's cultural protections that represents the pressure varies and customers it was all the legislation was amazing comboertsdz by

so i think i will caution that suddenly we get a lot more impact fees because the impact fee on the square feet basis is less than 34u789d by a bigger number you know what i mean it is built into the assumptions when we look at the impact analysis that's my only word of caution i can't specifically is that will happen >> okay. just a couple of things. >> commissioner wu pursue i agree with that sentiment about the direction i want to ask the city attorney can we recommend the supervisors office recommended some grandfathering or along in the - you i think it is up to the commission make the recommendation and leave the details to the supervisor or include a detailed recommendation. >> commissioner moore i'd like to recommend to the supervisors that quite recently we've approved a number of projects and projects in the pipeline and caution we're not creating two of confusion about the subject matter but have basically support this commission has been doing on a number of projects. >> commissioner antonini. >> oh mr. johnson did you want to comment. >> legislative aid to supervisor br

questions starting actually with the rincon hill i know this is the first program to start looking at impact fees structure and i'd like to talk about this is a neighborhood that in some ways it feels like we're building in the ground up not a lot of infrastructure and we're putting a lot of primarily residential building in that neighborhood and, of course, to the north of that a mixed use commercial residential what the transit plan now we're in place and development is happening and tremendous need of construction in the area yet a gap exists between the impact fees and the non impact sources for the capital improvement the economy has exploded and high-end development is occurring in the area we're finding the medium home prices for the condos are way above one million dollars for units i'm curious we're not charging for recreation and open space for example, we have a need for open space in the area and it is significantly rincon hill and market octavia are lower for example the thought processed behind. >> in the original about the impact fees with the plan we worked out the value of t

. >> number one a hearing the implementation plan for the pregnant impact fee. >> colleagues i'm the sponsor of that item this is a hearing i requested largely because every year the planning department has a report on the interagency that is a collection of city agencies it fund and implement the designated infrastructure improvement within the neighborhoods and the planned areas that is critical like time we're now the ones we're in now we're experiencing a second amount of housing construction and growth i have really for years said the city has not lived up to hitsz it's end of bargain it has bargained sore in my note are out of order we've set up a system where we know there would be a funding gap in the city to fill from my prospective in dealing with the be eastern neighborhoods plan we're over 6 years in and we're just starting to have a grasp with the financial hold i know that supervisor kim you've got smart questions around the eastern neighborhood plan our city needs to continue to grow rep a great opportunity for the growth, however, we cannot expect neighborhoods not to

impact report and conducting it so the mayor there was a general discussion with the mayor the mayor does did agree that are a time you know and need for it and by wants direction when this is to be infected i think from what the discussion came from the small business be consultant to codify when the economic environmental impact report is done like the eirs not the same standard but to crate sub standards for which we as the city look at the economic analysis and economic reports and studies we've heard even in discussions here with the commission and the held the joint commission with the board we've talked about looking at the economic impact studies each of those things are a very different thing in and of itself and so and even amongst the discussion with the business county the intent is the economic analysis so their needs to be clear guidelines and objectives when things are triggered for what in terms of is that a study or analysis or comes ahead of time or is there a followup report after an infrastructure project so that's said the commission is embarking on the outreach

not a value of staff time to develop that we'll do that but the business impact you've heard i don't know how much we can mr. estimate that a meeting like today having businesses sigh this is how to impacts me i understand the desire from the motion and from those who spoke under oath in favor what information we consider that alternative and did have it environmentally clear where we are at the end of the process we were best addressing all the needs of the project concluded the safety needs of the recommendation before you les if you want to add anything in terms of what we could come back with. >> i can give you a range because you know if we did that just - i think that we would bans we were leon doing other projects the quality of the parking lanes is not a typically good surface we'll want to restepfathers it speaking the range it would be a few thousand dollars to do the paint only green paint and signs and the raised track is one million dollar like in the south if we want to redo the pavement it is one way or the other without having it raised it would be somewhere in the mi

portion but what's underground and the curve ramps those are the big impacts so we could come back with cost and schedule impact i don't know, there 0 would be necessarily a significant cost of schedule books we arrived where we arrived at the recommendation not really based on cost and schedule but based on you've heard a number of people refer to an achieve process whereby we took a number of different options 12 or 20 i think original options at the starting and really worked with the community with enormous stakeholder to arrive at what we thought best met the needs of the street the people who live driver's license who work there and travel through there i'll assail that to be clear it would let's safe money or time so i don't think there is a significant cost of scheduling impact not a value of staff time to develop that we'll do that but the business impact you've heard i don't know how much we can mr. estimate that a meeting like today having businesses sigh this is how to impacts me i understand the desire from the motion and from those who spoke under oath in favor what inform

similarly found no significant impact with the the erosion equipment and the tool of hd h is here to answer questions about the ground floor enforcement pr i'm to note sutter tower we're lucky to have it there's a valid condominium conversion for all forms of radio communication on the tower it makes sense for the type of installations which half-hour considering to be centralized in a location where the structure is already built and can accommodate the types installations with no-go significant impact simply tower we understand concerns the neighbors have most of the concerns from the tower itself not from the modifications proposed by those projects notwithstanding we're working with the neighbors to address their concerns about noise and trimming we're working with the landscape architect that seat belts the option along the eastern property line and didn't impact the existing permitted improvements we've leonardo da vinci also started discussion with the adapting that owns the adjacent property about the proposed planting of new landscaping on the property between the suture twe

oject it is highly unlikely an environmental impact report will cancel it those are important infrastructure promotions i think the issue becomes is there are there timing issues that can be addressed or detailing to void a how wide season or overlapping or private or public projects and perhaps some kind of meeting of the minds of the city where the city will help fund pr efforts under construction or even there's an victim of crime assistance fund those are things we'll discover in looking at the best practices but those are you think going into anything with the mayor's office we're going to describe our survived outcomes are so that's part of study it should be. >> okay. so commissioner president adams. >> i agree with you one hundred and 10 percent we need that and looking at some of the projects that we've finished and going forward what's happening is we had the joint meeting with mta and the issues we brought up seemed like it was it up i think going to the mayor's office - well, what's the word official licenses we're not here to change i mean, we need the infrastructure projects wh

fees associated where the impact fees can be used for infrastructure improvement of the impact fees are traditionally held by the planning department to offset the impacts on affordable housing community or generally the board established a separate selma fund with an additional fee on the rincon hill development so we have to depth funds that it is source of confusion the additional impact fee for improvement and the additional silver stabilization fee that was imposed and to further complicate the matter $6 million of the infrastructure fee that is continually managed by the planning department was through this legislation mandatory to be adopted into the silver community shakeabletion fund 0 when we talk about the rincon hill fund part of that was were impact fees and the other the separate community shakeabletion fund that had water eligibility for fund i wasn't involved in 2005 or 6 my understanding was that the members of the board felt they wanted to have it $6 million of infrastructure to be guided by the silver citizens advisory committee a that's why it was split up even t

we go from a low impact to a moderate impact most locations by 5:00 a.m. there's your big flakes that will be coming down for the morning rush at 7:00 a.m. big wet flakes with again, impacts mainly to the north and west of our area. with more on an that and what your area could see, meteorologist doug kammerer. >> that's the big concern for tomorrow morning. this snow is going time pact us during the morning rush. this is once again a timing event. this is one of three or four that we've seen this winter. take a look. we'll show you who will be impacted the most. notice i-95 corridor d.c. woodbridge frederick, southern maryland this is a low-impact event for this area even though we could see some accumulating snow we don't think it will be an issue on the roadways. the roads should be a-okay. temperatures to the low 50s, road temperatures way up there. moderate impact. let's look at this area here. northern faulkier county around the marshall area front royal, chantilly, sterling, gaithersburg clarksburg moderate impact for you especially the secondary ro

environmental impact report before you go forward as to the impact of taking away thirty percent of parking on polk street that is only a pine it is all the way to union taking away 60 percent of parking i'll ask you delay this until after the studies thank you very much. >> there are two christopher's in the room i'm going to stop calling both names. (calling names). >> good afternoon, sir. >> good afternoon. i've been a merchant on polk street for 13 years born and raised i applaud that plan in theory i don't know how studied or how many merchant were interviewed i've been to the meetings on church and the out reaches but polk street logically in size is narrowed because it's an older street i'm not anti bike or pro car or pro bike and anti car i want to look at an ideal legacy plan to make that work for both sides it is just not seeming to work for this we've been at this for two years didn't make sense for a small area to have this legacy pilot program with the congestion that's not been studied which that is the most dangerous from 5 to 8:00 p.m. i'll urge to look at this befor

mary mars property is not impacted by the sin. >> office of the city administrator one other issue is the slope work that is part of the plan we're going to go ahead windfall tax project is approved it is one of ms. mars concerns we are looking to remedy the problem in terms of the property we tried to meet with her she's skalt the meeting we're happy to do that and hopefully get the project approved and that will benefit everyone in terms of the noise that's been an issue raised and the project sponsor is talked with the tenant and it will not be a problem again, thank you. >> i have a question. >> yeah. >> so the property is tenant occupied. >> did property is tenant occupied the intent to make it occupied it can't be used as a single-family home so with this project will allow us to do make it a usually single-family home. >> so to move in as you make it a more usually single-family home or for the tenant. >> it will be inhabit by the family to have it thinking has been marked by a family those tenants will not remain. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> thank you scott sanchez planning

if there were a significant impact to a cultural landscape we would address that impact. >> do we want to say something like "in many cases like retenant features facade retention because that's the question. facade retention seems like a minimal amount of the structure. i don't know if that's getting too specific and maybe it is too specific. but minimal may seem like partial. >> i think that would be better to have implications. >> or no word at all. >> i think if we say historic features such as retention then it can apply to something that isn't specifically, i don't know. that seems like a way to do it. >> it can be a hitching post >> that makes sense. >> commissioners, tim frye, that would be for the first sentence so that second paragraph to rephrase it to say," in many cases retentions of the historic features. >> any others? >> i move. >> then there is a motion to adopt this resolution as amended on that motion. commissioner hasz, yes, commissioner john's, yes, commissioner matsuda, yes, commissioner hyland, yes, commissioner wolfram. that passes 6-0. i have no other matters o

specifically how epa we will measure climate and fax/facts -- climate impacts impact stemming from construction of knew natural gas pipelines? >> it provides us an opportunity to be clear that it is a flexible tool and greenhouse gases should be looked at one appropriate to do so and the impacts are significant enough to warrant and provides good guidance moving forward. >> thank you. mr. chairman, one more question. i we will submit it. superfund budgets. budgets. we have some superfund areas in my year. i thank you for your time. >> i recognize the gentleman from texas for five minutes. >> i think the chair and welcome kayfive. your epa gina mccarthy. your epa is taking comments on knew standards for ozone. in houston we have been fighting this issue for decades and have made huge strides including up our air first slide, please. i will give you hard copies. this 1st slide is your estimate of trends that we will violate proposals. any shade of blue is bad. blue counties have a hard time getting permits for new factories or exploration even highway construction the department of public transpo

on the liveliness and impact on to our residents in our neighborhoods. just ask anybody trying to walk, cross or bike by this point. the volume within our neighborhoods, the parking is scarce in particular with the parking permits. permits can sit empty for days at a time. with over 250 permits obtained per week, i do believe the city can be more proactive about letting our residents know about the impact that is going to be happening to them in their neighborhoods. so today, i'm introducing with supervisor cohen as well as supervisor wiener and breed as cosponsors, they can request no more than one permit for a maximum of 3 months. the parking will go back to use after 4:00 p.m. to the public for use. it makes the parking plan a prerequisite for the parking permits. the number of spaces requested in rationale, the average number of employees anticipated each day of the site, the timeline of the project and a requirement from the contractor to notify the city of any changes, whether it is feasible to use carpooling or other off site parking like nearby g

they manufacture dollars or sell dollars, it has a very different impact. most of these global companies are very accustomed to significant swings in currency. the biggest issue is the rate of change and how quickly it's happening. it's very hard for a company to adapt if you have a very volatile environment. it's difficult to predict. as we've seen a decline in earnings expectations already qua and larger for p-500 companies. it has an impact and noise. washes out fairly quickly and i'm not sure how long. i think overboard on the dollar it goes further. but i think what you'll see is just a general increase in volatility. we've been incredibly spoiled, obviously, for now almost 3 years without a 10% decline and the market is looking for excuses to price some of the risk that we've seen. >> generally speaking if you take the dollar and put it aside from the equation because we don't know how long this cycle is going to last with the strong dollar. are you positive on equities at this point? there are some who say we've been having a decent run for the stock

this is where we'll see moderate impacts, high impact in the red area. what that means is we could have isolated delays around marshall leesburg chantilly, sterling gaithersburg clarksburg higher impact area i think delays would be more likely, maybe a cancellation or too, martinsburg to lubbocksville, thurmont frederick, maryland. of course the temperatures will be right around 32 to 35 and improving very quickly from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. that's when we get out of the snow window. >> good news there is once again you may see snow out there for a little while, grassy surfaces cars but once the rain starts that will help to melt the snow and by tomorrow night you might not have anything at all. we still have the winter weather advisory posted goes into effect overnight through 2:00 tomorrow. winter storm warning, this is the area to the north and west that has the greatest impact. we'll continue to watch this for you. i'll be back with that updated edd snowfall amount. >>> metro is dealing with more safety issues tonight. news4 transportation reporter a

you can start to see the impact. at whiskey creek, the shellfish hatchery on the oregon coast, we have a big problem. the big problem is that the baby oysters are having trouble pulling enough carbon out of the water in order to create their shelves because the water is too acidic. it is like a canary in a coal mine. if the oysters are having trouble, what other shellfish are being affected by the increasing level of acidity? as humans on our planet we have the moral responsibility to exercise wise stewardship of our resources. the responsibility that this generation and a profound responsibility to generations to come. our youth tend to have a better understanding of this and then the lawmakers who come to the floor in the senate. our youth widely ranked global warming as a major concern. the major issue they want to see us take on. they will face the challenges that we will leave behind, but he was the problem -- is we wait to tackle global warming until we have pages on the floor 15, 16-year-old pages are on the f

epa's proposal impacts states differently. each state has unique characteristics in energy portfolios that drive the application of each of the four building blocks. for wyoming the proposed-goal is problematic and unrealistic to achieve. epa is proposing a compressed timeline in which states are to develop and submit their state plans. considering the complexity of proposal and developing a compliance plan along with any state need legislation the timelines are problematic if not unrealistic. wyoming he's emission reduction required by 2020 which is 70% of the proposed state goal is far greater than can be achieved. this disparity is often referred to as the cliff. wyoming's evaluation identified data errors. renewable energy, since i want has the largest impact on wyoming's proposed goal. 100% of co-2 emissions from fossil fuel power plants regardless of end user will be attributed to the energy producing state. 66% of electricity generated in wyoming is consumed outside its borders. according to epa renewable energy credits

brian lamb: what impact did it have once it was over? david stewart: a surprising impact.t was not a popular war in many parts of the country. many new englanders hated it and opposed it. they were close to secession. but when it ended, part of it was because of andrew jackson's wonderful victory at the battle of new orleans. that was a couple of weeks after we learned that the treaty had been signed with britain. it was such a smashing victory that it had americans feeling like they had won the war, which was not true. it ended up being a moment of national unity. and coming out of the war, america still like, we went toe to toe a second time and they did not beat us this time either. it ended up being a very positive experience. not of course for the soldiers who fell, but the nation as a whole came out feeling quite good about itself. brian lamb: when you look at that education of the people you wrote about, how much did they have? david stewart: hamilton had some. he went to king's college. most of them were -- they had to be self-taught. they had instruction, madison

how to talk about more together the city has been reluctant to invest in bart capacity we have the impact development fees on the development we've had that not a penny to bart for the capacity we used all the capacity when used when we bought the bart system we have to now pay for it and fourth a woo i understand there is runthd user reluctant continues if we did a bridge toll and really investing that p there was a lot of tunnel and other things but core system bart transit and getting people across the corridors we can work well together so i know the t d i f will come back to you and look at it whether what capacity needs do we need to have in the plans to make sure growth is paying for growth and we're building the infrastructure to sustain the additional trips that's a conversation we should have sooner or later and the number of projects that we up to date this is a great conversation and thinking about it you know not only multi agency but multi jurisdictions what should we be doing and the other thing san francisco does have a seated regional body sending a clear message to the c

i want to talk about the impacts rule. the epa released mass resources of ozone from its calculations. yes or no. do you rely on this rule to make your efforts achievable? is that a weapon you have to make new standards viable? can that make new standards viable, because right now they're not viable. >> i think you're referring to exceptional events which have been part of our program since day one, and we're trying to make sure states can easily access the ability to have events documented so they can make sure they don't interfere with the state's plans for implementing the rule. >> one final thing the chairman gave consent to release a document from the texas council of environmental equality that goes in great detail about the acception of this process. seven have not been answered. that's not viable to control ozone. in texas we are 0 for 10. >> without objection, at this time i recognize the gentleman from new jersey mr. pallone, for five minutes. >> thank you, mr. chairman. madam administrator with just a small frac

analysis as i stated hmos alley is the width of 2 sidewalks it has a huge impact on the alley the set back is 5 feet and 8 inches it will feel like a small spaces our tenant joy the light and air but this is a dense neighborhood and you shouldn't be granted to one neighborhood the third-story should be limited in height so the neighborhoods don't feel they're living on top of each other we thought the are owners have not been forthcoming to show the developments impact we've been given big answers when we ask questions for example, the height would range from that 8 to 10 feet this was not in the data why is it improbable to verify the shadow studies she's produced no time stages but our tenant tells you that she tried to abrogate her by to me e telling the tenants would find her with a similar scruff you can think what you want but that goes to the heart of the discretionary review we need a higher standard when it comes to the impact on the neighborhood we need the planning department to question the assumptions that have been delivered by a bias representative so, please help us to

the mining development is going to have impacts on okay flat. but what is important about okay flat is dialogue. what is important is to sit down and stakeholders, and sit with neighbouring tribes and talk about how to develop the mine in a respectful manner and share the benefits of the mine. >> reporter: historical records show that vast amounts of lanted under apache control were carved out of the reservation to enable industrial mining. private companies extracted a fortune in minerals, with minimal benefit to the tribe. >> reporter: do you think the benefit? >> we have all the mines, all the things they took from us. 70% unemployment. i already told you where it's going. it's not going to benefit anyone. what is left is contamination. >> reporter: imagine a couple of years from now they break ground at okay flat and you are standing there watching it. what will go through your mind? >> i probably will cry. i mean, i definitely will cry. the history of our people, the dreams, those ways that god blessed us. and to turn to the children and go

block review of parking how is it that all of those cars will not raise pollutant negatively and impact our quality of life those are just a few examples of the environmental analysis falls short and finally the 10 tow away zones is a hash trade off. >> thank you thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> 17 hours rather than the current. >> sorry for the last few minutes. >> thank you. >> (calling names) good afternoon. >> good afternoon in the war and how long we're lived here i 2k3wr5u9d from elementary school over 60 years on polk there the this is not new we started this bike thing 15 years ago polk street had 3 lanes on polk street we eliminated one of them that's 1/3rd the traffic on polk street was eliminated 250i789d to add the parking and add bike lanes where they couldn't fit this started a long time ago we did the enormous changes my business really saw that in its truck deliveries coming in we get 44 foot trucks twice a week it is hard to park those trucks we have other huge changes coming to polk street not the bikes as we heard the hospital is coming in with upward

>> i think this is extremely important for small businesses those infrastructure projects if they impact small businesses many of them cannot simply economically weather a long siege of people not being able to get to them so if there's no way to do on environmental impact report basics says this will cause this corridor to lose 20 businesses there's got to be a way to soften the blow it certainly with all the residential building right now i know moving around the city it you know kind of a double blow for many businesses it is never ending for them you know they just simply not being able to withhold the businesses it is two years say of building you know that's unrealistic we need to consider the health of our small businesses as an important part of doing any infrastructure promotions i don't feel comfortable sacrificing a number of what many long term businesses to do it there's got to be a way to work to you know not have that happy i'm disturbed about even on about polk street the economic impact not for a year you know having the small business for many years that maybe a little

i would argue that the city is far more impacted than alcatraz island. it clearly impacts our city of san francisco the most the city has to deal with how to prepare for growth. and the nps does not and the city has to provide transportation options and the nps does not. i will do everything in my power to transfer this contract i believe it should be managed by local city government because it directly impacts our city the most. we can send a strong message to fort mason. >> thank you supervisor farrell . >> supervisor kim. >> thank you. two things first i want to give an update today on the impact of the communities collective support for the five tenderloin families on january 29th only a day after a fire displaced a larger group of residents in the mission district. i just want to recognize -- actually reaching out to one of our district businesses start-up hand up and also project homeless connect to create an awareness campaign to get many folks involved and i want to mention this fund has now raised 25 thousand $25,000 and these funds will all go
