commissioner ortiz-cartagena. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: how did you guys come up with this? i'm going to wait for more comments after your presentation. but who like really decides this? how did you quantify this math? >> that's a great question, commissioner. there are a bunch of different ways that we looked at these fees. we looked at the former parklet fees. we also looked at methodology that public works uses to for sidewalk tables and chairs. so there is a calculus there that's used as a per square footage calculation. that was part of what went into the analysis for this. but mostly, it was based on what the averages were for pre-covid parklet fees and wanting to acknowledge that we create a spectrum or set of tiers. because that one-size-fits-all doesn't fit all applications. so that was made. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: when you divide the square footage, i'm assuming you're selling by 20 per stall? >> about that. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: [inaudible] square feet. >> i believe so. yeah. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: i'll come back. i'm going to revisi

commissioner ortiz-cartagena. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: thank you, president laguana. i just have a comment and a question. thank you for your presentation. i just want to [inaudible] . all our businesses in our neighborhood know you. you know our businesses as well. you and your team have done great outreach marketing in the community. i appreciate that in your capacity. one of the things i had the grant that you highlighted that's in the works for businesses that criteria is to be open by december 31st, 2020. so those are for those businesses that started during the pandemic. i know you don't know yet exactly, but do you have like a tentative date? i get that question a lot for businesses during the pandemic. >> yeah. again, our grant, we're working on the application right now to go live in the next one to two weeks is our goal right now. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: okay. thank you. >> president laguana: thank you. okay. it doesn't seem like there's any more questions from commissioners. so for myself, director, first of all, thank you so much for all the work

. >> commissioner ortiz-cartagena: what about the lift? although those are easy fixes, the lift from the curb to where it ends. but that'd be structural where you'd have to tear down the parklet. obviously but it's easier to modify. >> right. i think in some cases and i don't have the sense of magnitude, things might have to move around a little bit. you might have to move one parking space up next year or create a little more visibility. we do have to make sure any structure is clear of any 6' rail. we have manu ginobiliy trains that from the outer edge of that rail that's in the pavement, in the ground, there's a 6' clear area and that's because there's a dynamic. because they impede visibility at the intersections, for example. in terms of the width, the current requirement is and as far as i can tell, most shared spaces out there comply with this is that any structure has to be 1' clear from an active bicycle lane or active travel lane, so we're sorting out some of the images and some of the diagrams and the graphics that we circulate

this this is a little drop off of what commissioner ortiz cartagena mentioned.d also know who to look for for the information so we can get together a community opinion. >> there is an opt-in list the planning department maintains for certain kinds of notification. that is one plan. the planning department developed a notification system for the mission specifically. i think there are others. it is a detailed question about notification. i don't know the full answer to but i would be happy to get back to you with the specific list of ways that the community can be proactive or stay proactively informed about things like this. >> it is my understanding and laura and sheila correct me if i am wrong on this. it is my understanding neighborhood associations and merchant associations this is what you are referring to with the opt-in list, sheila. they are automatically notified when the permits are coming through. they are signed up and they automatically get that notification. >> yes, that's right. >> i mean i know that is the way it is supposed to be. for some reas
