lastly the project requires variances. from open space and exposure requirements. 3984 square feet of common open space is required. the proposal includes 3275 square feet on a roof deck and approximately 2,000 square feet at a second-level mid-block courtyard. therefore the project is 700 square feet deficient with regard to residential open space requirement. the roof deck satisfies forful of the 83 units. with regard to exposure, the majority of dwelling units would comply fully with the exposure requirement by either facing one of abutting streets jessie or mission or by facing the outer court that measures a minimum of 25'. there are 12 unit obvious levels 2-6 that do not comply with this requirement. the zoning administrator will opine on these variances after the commission takes action off and on the 309 determination of compliance and conditional use authorization. department has received a number of letters in support of the project and i have additional correspondence for your review. it's 100% affordable and pr

lastly one of the reasons why this program has been so successful is that it's easy to sign up. there is actually a free muni lifeline program a few years ago which failed. because this program has been very easy to sign up for youth. all you have to do is fill out a single form. that's why it's great. it's less administrative on muni and great for vulnerable population in san francisco such as undocumented community. more specifically, priority no. 7 is about the inclusion of 18-year-olds in sf municipal unicipal transportation agency, 75 percent or 3,000 will turn 18 in their senior year. the problem is that currently sf mta only occurs ages to be 5-17. on the students 18th birthday they are forced to pay $66 a month per pass or $2 which is expensive if you are a high school student. many agencies in the bay area of the east bay and golden gate transit of the north bay consider their youth to be 5-18-year-olds so that that gets almost all high school students. our recommendation is to expand munis youth rate to include 18-year-olds and also another issue we've identified is tr

i wanted to say lastly that cultural change is critical so having affordable or free water bottles is really important and i know a lot of non profits and businesses contribute, but we need to do more to provide that reusable water bottle, besides the capital improvements as well. our city has a health equity coalition that i and my colleagues have worked with over the years. shape up ucf is one. we're working on a soda tax to help fund many of our water access needs and that will come up in november, but i wanted to point to the pilot program that is in the school district now. sutro elementary is one school that's benefitted tremendously with a new drink tap water water filling station. it's very clear that that school has it very prominently placed and i think that that's a great example. other schools have some facilities improvements, but i noticed it's not as prominent. i'm guessing that because it was one of the pilot schools that there was a lot more awareness and there will be more water access. i'm looking forward to the expansion with the 36 other schools. lastly i'll just

lastly we have the star branded target cafe. the cafe use was originally approved as the cu in july of 2011. was identified on the plans and specific branding of the cafe was unknown at that point in time. as you know the city target store was a new incarnation and merchandising of the program was not finalized at that time. the cafe opened in conjunction with the city target opening in october. it's 880 square feet. it's accessed only through the target entrances. it does not have a dedicated access from the street and doesn't have dedicated emtower signage. the cafe is 100% owned and operated by target corporation and its target employees that run it. if they are working on the floor, they wear a red shirt and in starbucks they put on a black shirt. all revenue s receipts from any purchases in the cafe are target receipts and not starbuck receipts. starbucks association is strictly through a license agreement, allowing the use of their branding. and the sale of their merchandise. they have no ownership in the cafe. the plannin

and lastly, the rate notice -- it's a little small actually very small on this slide we have copies here over on the table for the public and i can give you a copy if you want a bigger version of this this is a copy of what was sent out to property owners and rate pay ers this is the prop 218 notice the formal notification of changes in rates and the protest is noted on this form that's why you received the protest letters of almost a hundred and in order to cause a requirement for protest, a majority of the property owners would need to file that formal protest so we're right around a hundred right now. and with that i just would quickly like to thank my team as well as the puc and city attorney team who provided support all along this year long road and with that i'm happy to take questions. >> thank you very much. >> vice president ann moller caen. >> i was going to say excellent presentation. >> so with that we'll come back in 3 weeks again to entertain your consideration and i will now turn the mic over to kevin chang. >> thank you very much thanks for being here. >> good afternoon.

lastly miscellaneous and connection fees. most of them are tied back to the cost of providing that service. generally this cost and service review at this time when we're doing the rate study and adjust the fees annually provided by the city controller and at the bottom of the slide we have 2 changes or new fees that we're proposing. we had a hard time getting our builders and contract ors to report on water use so we're proposing to change the penalty fee from $25 to the cost of 25 units of water which is their average typical use in a month so that will give them the incentive to bring in the meter so it's read as it should be. the second proposal is a meter reading fee of $5 a month and we then if that happened have to send a meter reader to the home to read that meter each month so we're suggesting or proposing a five dollar fee for that service i should note pg and e has a similar cost for their service as well. this rate package abides by the policy this commission established. this scorecard as noted here was derived b

[ reading speakers' names ] please line up on the screen side of the room. >> commissioners dennis, since the march 13th hearing, the department, the mayor's office has been very responsive to input from the public. and have made some changes that have greatly improved legislation and taken out of the worst features of it from the point of us of many who responded on mar 13th. most importantly one of the big fears that we had when we first tread this would have permitted the building of structures on public plazas that could have included private for-prove making businesses. because of the literal interpretation of the plaza program and the planning code. however, in order to solve that problem, the department -- i mean the mayor'

and lastly for the analysis of the charter we are working on and the community will require a joint hearing between the mta board and the board of supervisors to approve the equity plan. this will ensure the broadest level of support for this policy. i hope this process will help us build a broad city-wide coalition to grant the measures in the package. and i welcome the possibility to work closely with the board of supervisors and the mta board. i think what we had this past year with vision zero and walk first is to see a vision of common purposes that we have. and moving forward we can have a collaborative approach and how we shape the infrastructure of san francisco. thank you for your time. >> thank you. next speaker. >> herbert winert. >> one thing that i envy about supervisor avalos is his unlimited speaking time. i have questions, and that is the money for transit bus service has to be emphasized in this bond issue. and you have to emphasize it for the neighborhood. i would like to see the leader routes and the alternative routes restored. because i want the neighborhood benefited.

and lastly, why the board and the mayor's approval for the these developments was disregarded? so that should be a fun and exciting hearing. that concludes my report unless there are questions. thank you. >> commissioners, in that case, we'll move on. that will place you under general public comment not to exceed a period of 15 minutes. at this time members of public shall address the members of commission within the subject-matter jurisdiction of the commission. with respect to agenda items your opportunity to address the commission will be afforded when the item is reached in the meeting. each member of the public may address the commission up to 3 minutes. i do have a couple of speaker cards. rd r [ [ reading speakers' names ] >> my name is sue hester. i have an overhead for the planning commission documents for today's calendar. just the items that i am here for have 800 pages of documents. they are 73 pages for 63rd street. 70 pages in various things for public plaza. 288 pages for 1036 mission. 255 pages for 650 indiana. 196 at 1201 tennessee. they all appear on the publi

lastly the october 8th and the october 8th, start date and we recommend that we push that to january first if at all possible and there will be a huge issue that we have will to change the plans and that does not make sense. and lastly, i just want to urge that if we do open it up again that we include those under collective bargaining agreements part time employees can also be covered by unionized employers. >> next speaker. >> employ name is mack and i am with the california alliance of retired americans, as were a couple of other speakers. and as it were the state wide organization and we have about 500,000 members, and we are a coalition, and it says alliance and that is what we are. and we are coalition of organizations. and we represent community organizations like disability action and other such community groups and we also have a number of people from unions such as myself and i was with the california federation and the teacher's education of san francisco and that is the california alliance. and although we are retired we very active in supporting active people wh

lastly we are asking for one officer for three years that will be in charge of outreach and also help to implement a more robust licensing campaign for dogs and increase viability. this will hopefully bring in more donor dollars to help make the program more self sufficient. it'll increase the number of dog licenses because there are about 120,000 dogs in the city, only 17 percent of them are registered or licensed despite having a city mandate to to so so by increasing that it'll make the public safer. it'll ensure rabies vaccinations and will help them to be more kwiekly quickly identified if they get lost. by having that it'll increase the revenue for the agency which will make them more self sufficient. the costs for these associated requests is a total of about 900,000 in the fiscal year '15 and then the successive year as we annualize all these positions it increases to about $1.2 million. that concludes our presentation. we thank you for the opportunity to present to you. if you have any questions rebecca and i would be happy to address them. >> thank you very much. if there ar
