the alteration of 136 ord will not materially impair the identified historic significance of 140 ord. therefore there is no potential adverse change. in fact, the proposed project repeats a pattern of development long since evident at 138 to 140 ord, which is that of an original small cottage at the rear with a subsequent edition of a primary residence to the front. thank you. president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, speakers. my name is richard carrington. i live at 154 ord, and i've lived there for about 20 years. and i'm in favor of this project because it will greatly enhance the block that i live on. as you walk up the street, you don't see what i've heard described, which almost sounds like you're describing the gardens of versailles. what next to me is bill's house, which does have a beautiful garden and a big fence in front. next to that is the house you've heard is historic, and it's a beautiful house. i think it's the best on the block. and next to that, of course, is the lot we're talking about, which has -- i've always hate. it drags weight to the back w

i live at 86 ord. i wanted to come up here and say that i've seen all of the concessions in the original plans. i fully support john's goal to build his house. i think it's really important to live in a city that allows for a mix of new and old architecture. i don't think they always need to say -- i think there's a lot to be said for having sort of mixture that really adds beauty to the neighborhood, and i think his structure that he has proposed would definitely do that, so i fully support him. thank you. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is steven barber. i live in district eight as well. i've had the pleasure of witnessing john go through this process for the last two years, which has definitely made me have the decision to never try to build a house in san francisco. the only reason we're here today is because a disgruntled neighbor kept getting the wrong answer, so i hope you will deny this appeal so we don't have to go through this again. thank you. >> good afternoon, members of the board.

and 140 ord, that may be caused over time. the substantial cumulative impacts have been studied. it is my professional opinion that the project as proposed will cause substantial adverse change to the adjacent historical resources. it will suffer losses to three aspects of its integrity -- design, feeling, and safety. it is too late to suggest the hand written correction substitute one exemption for another. the planning commission cannot rehear this case. [bell rings] supervisor chiu: are there any other members of the public who wish to speak on behalf of the appellant? >> my name is daniel -- supervisor chiu: could you pull the microphone closer to you? >> my neighbors and i have always been in support of a modification to the structure and have hope for a compromise with the project owner to accommodate his desire to modify the property. we also felt it was critical to balance the need against losing green space, which i think we can all say -- buildings change over time, but very rarely do you see buildings eradicated and

the unique block of ord is beloved in the neighborhood. we do feel the process should be followed properly. and we are going to consider having a building in the middle of that garden. we want to feel very confident that the planning department has done the diligence. and apparently that did not happen. whatever, what ever happened, the review and analysis of the categorical exemption simply was not done for this project. you already heard in great detail the categorical exemption attached to this project was actually done for a completely different project. with different impacts. this new project is a new building on the lot. the old project, the regional project, was an alteration of an existing building. you also heard that it was not picked up by the department. this was not mentioned in the categorical exemption. it is significant for this new project. the new project is immediately adjacent to an historic resource. this needs to be considered. we want an honest and sincere review. to see whether there are any environmental impacts.

>> volunteers joined law enforcement, searching the 28,000 acers of old fort ord. they looked under barracks and inside every room in 4100 buildings. they look through the former enlisted club, but in spite of the searches, presidio police chief says it is possible that christina could have been kept there for a time. >> we found a rolled up newspaper where somebody used it a torch and nobody was down there for a long time. there was a film of dust and depress footprints in the dust. >> reporter: ten years ago, when he was the watch commander the search for christina led him here, following up on information from a 4-year-old boy, whose parents were convictioned he was psychic. >> they were at the dinner table and their son was eating in his high chair and all of a sudden he stopped eating and said i know where christina is. >> reporter: his parents said he could not have none about christina, because they have no television and they drove him to the police station and on the way -- . >> he said stop right now. he said call the police now, mommy. >> reporter: stopp

item 48 is a motion of forming the planning department determination that the project at ord street is exempt from environmental review. and item 49 is a motion reversing the determination by the planning department that the project is exempt from environmental review. supervisor chiu: for this hearing, we will consider the adequacy, the efficiency, and the planning department's determination that the project was exempt from environmental review. we will then take public comment from individuals who wish to speak on behalf of the public. each speaker will have up to two minutes to speak. we will then hear from the planning department, of which will have several minutes to describe their objective. then we will have a party of interest who will have up to 10 minutes. we will then hear from members of the public. each speaker will have up to two minutes. finally, there will be two minutes for a bottle. colleagues, are there any questions? supervisor wiener, do you have any opening comments? supervisor wiener: nothing at this time. supervisor chiu: what do we hear from the representative

so the ordeowner came in and ord me to remove all the things for the past control guy. i follow the instructions and then had to sleep at a friend's house until my place was treated. instead of treating it for bedbugs, mario photographed my room the way that he told me to put it, which took part work. the next thing i knew, i was cited for hoarding. i was curious and went to the central city collaborative. i worked hard to clean my room and photographic for the way it was, went to my hearing and one. they needed to pass the buck and were not accountable for bedbugs. even the health department was dishonest. as a result, the latter a democrat. more people are switching party because of stuff like this. bedbugs do not care what party you're in. i have never been late for rent. this is unacceptable and an outrage. and they did not even inspect a room next to mine. thank you for your time, supervisors. 4 think you -- supervisor kim: thank you. could you identify yourself? >> john williams. supervisor kim: thank you. >> good morning, supervisors. i am also with the working g
