most of our legislation is a.d.u.s for multiunit buildings, but we wanted to make sewer that there's still a rear yard for single-family homes. another component of our legislation is to -- was originally to allow more than one -- sorry, to allow more than one unauthorized unit to be permitted if it meets code requirements. and so that is something that will still remain in our legislation. item 7 is we're codifying the interpretation for unauthorized units that cannot be legalized. there are some cases where there's not a path to legalization, such as an area that doesn't permit residential uses. and so the zoning administrators determine if a unit cannot be legalized under the planning code, it may be removed administratively as the planning commission could not require that the owner legalize the unit if it was not under the planning code. so we want to codify something that's been in existing practice. number eight, regarding corner lots, we wanted to be able to allow up to one-story expansion of an existing legal, nonconforming structure. so, again, it may be more helpful to see

enforced for that application. >> supervisor safai: and so what does that mean in the instance of multiunitperties because we've heard differing things from project sponsors and others in the field that relates to fire rating and egress, as it relates to springlkler system. what is the main difference? >> i think the main difference is springler requirement. so if you're r 3 -- there's been an interpretation -- there's actually an information sheet that the state fire marshal put out. if you're -- that does not apply to apartment buildings. for apartment buildings, if you add an a.d.u. -- and there's fs 05 which we signed on with the building department, sprinklers are required for that new unit and that the egress path out to the public way. >> supervisor safai: but not for the entire building. >> not for the entire building. again, with our fs 05, i welcome anybody on-line watching this to go look up fs 05, and it outlines the requirements to what extent you sprinkler a whole building. >> supervisor safai: well, if you had to springler the whole building, you'd be talking about displacing

i think if we vote to go forward with a multiunit design, it'll be many more years before the project is completed. i don't think that's okay, either for the property owners or the neighbors and this project has been going on seemingly forever. thank you. >> president hillis: thank you. next speaker, please. >> hello. my name is jessica, and i've gotten to know todd and his partner over the past few years. one of the many examples of the support and guidance for me is when i was training for my first aids life cycle, and that's a 500 mile bike ride. as an avid cyclist who bikes in the neighborhood often, i fully support the efforts of todd and kevin to build a single-family home. before i continue, i just wanted to mention there are also other cycling members from the a.l.c., but they actually had to leave before today's meeting due to kitime constraints. i wanted to share a letter with the commission members. this is a letter written by a neighbor who lives just a few doors down from 214 states street, phil aquilar. he initially opposed the project because his neighbor misrepresented

single-family home owners and multiunit building owners feel that they can move through the process. i think as units, particularly in my district, are climbing to $800,000 poor door, the a.d.u. will increasingly become the more affordable way for us to increase the housing capacity here in san francisco and throughout the bay area. since the a.d.u. program started, i think there are hopes that more a.d.u. systems would be built up to this point. i think that it is important we continue to refine and improve this program so that it is one that every day, homeowners can actually take on. it will double the capacity in our single-family home neighborhoods throughout san francisco. it will build housing more cheaply and more quickly than all the multiunit buildings in the district that i represent. i just want to thank supervisor tang and her office for the time they spent on these listening sessions in terms of improving the process so that's the everyday homeowners can be part of addressing the housing crisis and also increase the value of their parcels and their homes as well. i thou

it is a shocker to me, but this side of the street where it supposedly occurred -- it's a lot of multiunit dwellings on this side -- where on the side it is all single-family. >> reporter: police don't believe the residence in this area are in any immediate danger -- the residents in this area are in any immediate danger. they are canvassing the neighborhood and looking for good surveillance camera footage . if you have any information you are asked to contact sanford cisco police. rob malcolm, ktvu fox 2 news . >>> also in san francisco police say a car ran over and killed an elderly man today at the spot where new safety traffic lights had just been installed. it happened around 10 am this morning on 36th avenue and it is the second pedestrian fatality in less than a year at that intersection. they recently overhead -- installed new overhead crosswalk lights designed to make it safer for pedestrians. red lights flash when the crosswalk button is pushed, requiring traffic to stop but it's unclear if the pedestrian killed today had turned the system on and at this point, we do not have the

and extraordinary circumstance to go from six bedrooms to ten, essentially rezoning from r-1 to multiunits. the bait and switch tactic of submitting plans and then completely ignoring, expanding, and exceeding them sets a bad precedent, as has been stated before. to claim extra space for extended or large families and then reneging on moving in. also the serial permits and notice of violations exhibit a disregard of proper constraints of the planning process under the premise sometimes it's easier to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission. is this one of those occasions where the reward is the risk of the illegally altered, nonpermit route to structure the building? it's difficult to believe that something so simple as an extra door on the facade would have escaped detection by d.b.i. as former appeals commissioners used to fashion compromises such as changing roof lines, changing set backs, facing windows, etcetera, in this case, the contractor got the max right out of the door without any public outreach. therefore, no way should there be any increase in the number of bedrooms. in a

and they would be the ones inconvenienced and they can be on top of monitoring things, whereas in multiunit buildings, it's not the case. if there are existing tenants, it's those tenants, who are oftentimes dealing with the loss of laundry facilities, etc., and not knowing their rights, rather. so those of us on the ground advocating for tenants, i'm wanting to push that all safeguards are in place before this goes into effect, as well as an affidavit, i would suggest there be a copy of the buyout of the laundry, the storage, or the garage space that had been part of the services and tenants contracts. for having a copy of that buyout filed with the rent board, means that that proof is there and it's been filed. i would also like to suggest that there be a definite size range so that if it's a space of 1,400 square feet, that not a large flat be built, rather a space where you could actually fit in two a.d.u.s would be great. my understanding of a.d.u.s in terms of in-laws, grannies, usually between 300 and 700 square feet. so to really take advantage of a.d.u.s adding affordable housing.

these types of buildings that are multiunit, at the ground floor, 25% of habitable space is allowed to be converted to an a.d.u. in regards this project and generally. that did change last year and a round of amendments. >> president hillis: once it is built? >> exactly. but there is the allowance for that habitable space to be converted down. >> president hillis: commissioner richards? >> commissioner richards: i am having an outer body experience here. this is a historical resource. were not worried about somebody process back deck. we are talking about a project which what alternatives that provide, especially one of the alternatives provides even more space. is a preservation alternative project with four units. so, you know, this was my community. this was something important to the lgbtq community. it is in our hemp historical context statement. we are treating it like let's just push it into the dustbin and demolish it and build four units. it is kind of offensive to be honest with you. the other thing that i am having a bit of a heartburn over is we asked for some alternatives,
