commissioner pearlman. >> thanks very much everybody for your presentation. i was the one who brought up the whole issue about losing the design showroom space and i didn't know mr. dixon, thank you for the information, if that's true about the 101 henry adams being 90 or 95 percent occupied, it leaves -- you know, this is my concern is that these businesses will no longer be able to operate in san francisco because i imagine getting 22,000 square feet, you know, that's somewhere related to the design industry is probably not possible in this neighborhood. so -- and then mr. shaheen also, i'm wondering about the /phrarpb plan that was put forward. what you said was you're going to get a 30 day notice to leave and that doesn't sound much like a transition plan at all. you know, while i understand the parking issues, 250,000 square feet of office space is going to generate a lot of people and that's a whole planning code issue that we have nothing to do with, but i understand the loophole in the code because we have the opportunity but at the same time it is a

commissioner pearlman? commissioner johnck. >> two things, you know, given the grand importance of what we're doing here, i was looking for some discussion of a public interpretation exhibit. i realize you're doing signage for tenant information and that kind of thing, but is there any plan for public interpretation plaque, exhibit or something. that's number one. and second thing, why you always say in the motion, number six, where as the historic preservation commission 2 henry adams /straoets appears to meet the eligible requirements? why not meets the eligibility requirements. it's my opinion they do, and i'm making the motion along with you. >> we can change that. to my knowledge /thr-sz no intent to create an interprettive exhibit at this time. >> i'd love to see something. >> yeah. >> if other commissioners agree. >> i would endorse that we make sure that every building has some kind of identification as to why it's a land mark. mark. that'd be great as a condition. >> thank you. >> i thank you very

. >> i would -- to counter what commissioner pearlman said, i'd say we start regulating or we don't do any of it, but once it's written in a code i think it's unfair for us to -- somebody who goes through all the steps, the code says if it's a landmark you can have these uses and they go through all these steps and then turn around well, we don't think your building counts, then we should have explicitly excluded it. otherwise it's very confusing. i think it's very unfair to owners to /sutd suddenly go through these steps and find because there's a desire to keep the showplace intact that we would turn their building down. that's my comment. >> thank you. commissioner johnck. i appreciate the discussion on the issues here, but i do believe it meets the requirements for landmark status in a very big way and i support the staff recommendation to designate the landmark and i will make two amendments to advise me on where to make these amendments, but i'd like to like numeral six to delete the word appears and put the word meets. >> motion? >> seconded. >> thank you. >> commissioners on th

okay project sponsor you have 5 minutes >> commissioners i'm jonathan pearlman thank you very much for hearing our case i'm the architect. i think it's ironic but basically more than 4 homes in the neighborhoods are 4 story buildings i want to go through the application and talk about the application but i'll focus mostly on the fourth floor. we that the building scale is exactly appropriate. we submitted a review we sat and worked with the residential design team and they approved our revised design it set back the top floor as described in the residential guidelines you'll see in the upper left on page 24. half of the lower floor is buried because of the topographic. the fourth floor is set back on all four side so in r x-3 you're not required to set it back. it's interesting that the requester has a home that measures 38 feet and ours measures the same. we are reoriented the disabling so it's parallel to the street as it readies it anyone misses the house and part of the building that's at the sidewalk is only 28 and a half feet and steps back and the garf violence house 235 is 31 a

i have a friend and colleague named wendy pearlman wrote amazing book, whether repression causes erstwhile non-violent movements to become non-violent. she finds the answer is no, not always. in fact a lot of times repression makes non-violent movements bigger because more people are drawn to it. it depends on organizational capacity. their ability to discipline themselves. their ability to commit to non-violent action even with voices of radicals within the movement demanding violence and collectivism forward that draws more people into the movement. so i think the explanation for why it is demobilized less related to excessive i agree government reaction in many places than related to the organizational structure. >> thank you. thomas i would like you to turn your laser gaze on the question of the minimum wage. >> oh. i would just say that i'm lucky there has been an amazing amount of new research on the minimum wage actually done by the third professor in the course, econometrics course, aaron dubay who has gone and looked at a lot of evidence and found that the research designs actuall
