that is integrated into oscar park and that has been the design and content of it are coincidental to the purpose of what happens inside. you see that at the corner of the park and the plaza there is an art space and there is a small retail space at the corner of the street in the park. and from the street you see a series of active uses including the lobby in the main management office for the building and the mail room. and concealed behind glass, printed glass doors is the loading area. we have access to the park which is hidden behind everything i described so it is not visible from the street. we have a flat resting space before you arrive to the street where cars can be delivered or picked up as part of the arrangement with the parking portion that is below. we also have two bicycle storage areas that can be entered directly from a bike path, a bike lane along oscar park or from the street as well, but they do not have to make it through the lobbies or the internal spaces of the building. here you can see the picture today. the parking lot that was so well described in its old d

the plaza features fluid physical connections to the future oscar park which will be situated to the south. a portion of this area will satisfy code requirements for mid-block crossing for visitors wish totionv travel between oscar park and tehama street. although the plaza is not fenced, visitors would be able to access the plaza. it does not require open space under the code aside from the 20 foot wide mid-block connection that i described. there are several conditions of approval included in the draft 309 section referencing required open space under planning code section 138. should the commission choose to approve the project, staff would ask those conditions be deleted as they do not apply. another issue i'd like to highlight is public art. include works of art consisting -- i'm sorry, costing an amount equal to 1% of the construction cost for the building object must contribute an in kind amount to public trust fund. the sponsor has creative approaches to satisfying this section. in part the requirement would be met through the provision of a permitted work of art to be displa

pointed out the siting in such a way to allow access to oscar park, allow light and air into a whole area of the city. i think that's extremely well done. there was one comment made by a commenter that they don't see the cumulative appearance, but architect has done a very good job of our materials put on the screen and showing what the skyline would look like with all the buildings in place that are those that we know of are either already entitled or are planned to be entitled in the future. and i think that answers a lot of the questions about what the cumulative effect of all the buildings in the area will be. so, i think this is a wonderful project and there will probably be in other commissioners with some comments, but i'm happy to move approval for the 309 compliance, which i believe is what's before us. >> is that a motion? >> that is a motion. >> i'll second. >> commissioner sugaya. >> well, never mind. >> commissioner moore. >> i think it's an exceptional building. it shows that an architect really understands residential expectations for the new emerging district around t

here that is being met in part by the plaza is for a 20 foot wide connection between tehama and oscar park. it just happens that 25-foot wide pathway if you will happens to be occurring in the context of a larger plaza being offered by the project sponsor. technically that area is not required open space. >> okay, thank you. >> thank you. >> commissioner antonini. >> yeah, also, mr. guy, i think we have an errata sheet also. there was a mention of a shadow that does not exist with this project. has that already been incorporated in here? >> there is no errata sheet necessarily and there is nothing in the motion about that. it was just something in the executive summary that was boilerplate [speaker not understood]. that was a reference to shadows being cast. there are no shadows being cast in section 295 parks of the project. >> right, that's not in the motion. we don't need to correct something -- [multiple voices] >> thank you. >> commissioners, there is a motion and a second before you to approve with conditions as amended by staff. commissioner antonini? >> aye. >> and read into the re

she won an oscar as best actress for that.and most likely will be nominated this year for this performance. in this french belgium production, she plays a whale trainer at a local marineworld parkhorrendous accident occurs, and she is left changed and challenged. if there was more about her story and its details, the film would have been better. much of it is the story of a bitter single father and drifter, played by matthias schoenaerts. this is a strong year for f oreign film, including amore, the matchmaker and my favorite the intouchables. still, as long as helen hunt actually wins oscar gold for the sessions.i'll be glad to see the always watchable cotallaird nominted for her sensitive performance in this strong drama. three hats. and argo... great on dvd and back to you marty and isabelle. >> let us check-in with janu. >> it is actually starting to dry out in the north bay. stormtracker 4 fopetaluma, with decent conditions and the same in novato but still scattered showers through burlingame, san francisco, and the san mateo bridge. a wet drive. the bulk of that heavy downpour with a nearly one-half inch per hour. the east bay through the alameda and light showers through
