i vaguely recall that, but i thought it was primarily for the park, within the octavia boulevard and the plans for the kind of open space that was required to be in that area. >> yes, so it includes the area north of market, and specifically octavia boulevard but it also does include this area just where we brought the freeway down and as an off-ramp to mitigate the creation of this off-ramp into the soma west community. >> got it, thank you. that really helps to clear things up. >> do you have a map of the octavia plan? >> we will provide it because my district is included in the market octavia plan as well. >> yeah, and i just want to add that i know that there has been a number of active participants and developing this plan there has been a lot of work that has gone into the plan which is why i am planning on supporting it. but i do

but 66,000 of that will come from the octavia boulevard project fund and so there are increasing dollars and i think that i agree with supervisor breed and there is a long time discussion in terms of what park maintenance believes and we cannot maintain the parks that we have, but they have a particular and unique problem is that we have less open space in any other part of the city. while other parks are in the portfolio, getting the maintenance that it gets, we have less and as we grow the density and we approve the developments and the south of market we have to think about infrastructure and you can't get the parks because your neighborhood came later and we are not going to provide you the infrastructure that we need because we are overloaded in terms of what we have. i think that it does have to be a greater conversation about what it means to provide appropriate infrastructure for the neighborhoods where we are focusing the density and the growth and the expansion is having. i wanted to address the points about these two parks. in terms of that, it was part of an over all plan and

getting the parcels from the state, for free, to the city in exchange have to construct the octavia boulevard and had to make for mitigations to the neighborhoods that are surrounding the freeway as well. in many ways this is part of an exchange that we have with the state and so we are responsible now for making mitigations and one is of course the pedestrian safety, and some of the projects that were brought up in the slide presentation and additional trees in the neighborhood and some of the, sorry i am pulling up, the street skate improvements and the traffic calming and the bike lanes are some of the concerns that we have made and one of the last pieces was for increasing open space in these dense neighborhoods. also, 66,000 dollars of rpv's maintenance class will be provided by this octavia fund which is from the sales of the parcels of the freeway. so there are additional revenues come ng that will not fully cover all of the maintenance costs which i believe was an estimate of $80,000. but 66,000 of that will

improvement and maintenance all of which come from the sale of the central freeway parcels and the octavia boulevard fund. >> and just to give you the highlights of what we can expect moving forward t will start in july and it will be open in the pring of 2014. thank you. is that it, i am sorry. this is such a big project for us i am expecting more. so i don't have any further comments on this item so we can go to the bob evansing and legislative analyst report. >> mr. chairman, supervisor, breed, and kim. on page 33 of our report, in the fiscal impact section, we are pointing out that the estimated cost to construct the skate park is 1.7 million and the cost to construct the dog park is 1.1 million and so that is a total cost of 2.8 million in construction costs. and we also report that the further skate park, the city, and as mr. updike has already stated, city will pay $10 per month from july, 2013, to 14, and that increased two percent annually and on page 33 of our report and that will be over a 20 year period and so that will be a total course over that period. and on page 34, supervisors, and

specifically octavia boulevard but it also does include this area just where we brought the freeway down and as an off-ramp to mitigate the creation of this off-ramp into the soma west community. >> got it, thank you. that really helps to clear things up. >> do you have a map of the octavia plan? >> we will provide it because my district is included in the market octavia plan as well. >> yeah, and i just want to add that i know that there has been a number of active participants and developing this plan there has been a lot of work that has gone into the plan which is why i am planning on supporting it. but i do take issue with increasing property in this city and increasing the portfolio of anyone who does not have the ability to maintain the existing resources or existing property. and i have a real concern about the park patrol and what has happened there and i would hope that to get a little bit more understanding from the rec and park department moving forward on how they planned to address the situation. what are the long term plans to deal with increasing the number of park patrol

appropriate concentration of formula retail uses in the upper market neighborhood that extends from octavia boulevard to castro street. the policy requires the planning department to recommend disapproval of any project that brings the concentration of formula retail within 300 feet of a subject property to 20% or greater. although the commission still retains the discretion to approve or deny the project. there are currently five formula retail uses within the vicinity of the property. and the proposed star bucks would bring the concentration of formula retail to 21% within 300 feet. based on these findings and those outlined in the case report, the department recommends disapproval of this project. this concludes my presentation and i am available for questions. >> thank you. project sponsor, please. >>> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is phil burnett. nortrn director of st california for star bucks coffee. first off i'd like to thank you for giving us the opportunity to present to you our proposed location of 22 0 on the corner of market and sanchez. ~ 2201. i'd like to share a little of wh
