. >> mr. chung, thank you for taking on this job. i think you are really suited for this job and the man we need for this. you are going to get a lot of, i think that 5 phone calls you will get is going to be a lot more. is there anymore questions? >> thank you so much both of you for this. it's really important to save these buildings and make sure they are going to be with us for a while. >> one more thing. there is a neighbor next do who is voluntarily doing this as well. special inspections is taking time to get the letters back to get the final. that's a little spiel. when they are were trying to finalize everything, the home owners are confused with regard to what the city needs. that's just a field condition that i heard. so. >> thank you commissioners. >> thank you. >> if there is no more questions. we'll move to the next item. >> is there any public comment on item 4? there being none. which item are we going to now? >> i'm confused myself now. we should go to 6. >> i think that's where we are. the clerk: item 6: discussion

mr. chung's plan is to begin sending out those notices to the property owners in early as september. we get questions on this field budget i'm sure we have a lot more of those once those notifications are in property owners hands. i would like to report on the grab bar legislation there is a 30 day period to get them in, we have issued 161 permits for grab bar installations within that grace period. that's about a $50,000 fee waiver from dbi for those building permits. anyone who has not yet come in under that will now be subject to the normal building permit fees. but the good news is that we have quite a few of them installed. similarly, as you remember supervisor katie tang asked for may to be waiver month for awning replacements, again, this year according to mis we only issued 3 permits for the month of may. they will probably come back to us next year. it's clear that without a lot of community outreach especially on the part of the supervisors to encourage these facade i am improvements, we don't really see very much activity at least coming into us to take advantage of this i
