and commissioner sugaya points out the other thing that which would be to continue to make sure to monitor the effects that might have occurred to the neighboring structure and this is no different than a lot of other places that was brought up that there is a lot of buildings built and a lot of greater depth into soils that are also problematic, in the transbay areas and i have seen the same techniques being used at 201 fulsom which is just in the process of foundation work being done and the shore work before the foundations are doing the shoring work and so is sounds like this is addressed well and the deck, and a couple of other issues that were raised. i mean i realize that we have never considered parking impacts as an environmental impact and you know, that would be nothing different here, although, you know, there is in my estimate a shortfall that will be an impact from these additional cars for residents, but, you know, it is not to be considered as part of the neg deck or any environmental impact report and so therefore, that is a discussion that is better had during the time of

commissioner sugaya. >> yes. i ran into former commissioner yesterday, and he reminded me that i promise that i would do something about the academy of art. and i promised his wife and so i thought about it and so could we get a status report on the future memo or something? it would be fine. >> typically on it. >> no just on the academy. >> yeah. >> commissioner borden? >> yeah, there was an article in the business times about the transbay park and now that the boston property is in the and i forget the other... i can't remember the other project sponsor there and it is not and it is refusing to pay for the park and i understood in our hearings when we asked the questions about it and the main nens of the park would be under their jurisdiction and i would like to find out what is going on there must be continuing negotiations and i feel at that hearing it was represented that they would be taking care of that park and i am frustrated to hear that there is about it now. >> commissioner moore? >> buses. the commis

suggest that we expand the conditions to verbatim and clear up the klaoe points that commissioner sugaya mentioned and i ask him to restate them so that they indeed capture the issues which i believe are correctly addressed her. >> it would be good to hear that again and the project sponsor's response and i think that they are more appropriate in the project condition and not necessarily in the document and i appreciate the concerns of the club and i think that they are more appropriately addressed during the building process when the design is more advanced and when we actually know where or what they are doing and what they are building and i mean this is encountered every time that someone replaces a residential foundation and impacts and on the adjacent foundation and i think that is appropriate and more on the dbi and we are happy to put the conditions on the or in the approval document, i think that the project is appropriate here. and it meets the requirements of the eastern neighbor's plan, and potrero is a wide street and i think that it takes this height and i praoerp the top t

. >> commissioner sugaya >> yes, on that note, the city attorney's office could we actually impose that kind of a condition? >> commissioner sugaya, the city attorney's office and as i understand this, condition, it is a reporting of the sales price, to the city, i am not entirely certain where we can require that the information be made public and my understanding is that commissioner wu was recommending that the department try to follow up and track generally, what prices are like in the neighborhood, but not that individual units actually, be required to report, if the commission is interested, in em posing a condition like that, i would have to do some research and get back to the commission i am just not sure about the ability of the city to force this kind of information to be made public. >> okay. >> thank you. >> i think that there is a general kind of feeling that it would be nice if we could get a little better handle on specific information like that. if we can't extract it in this fashion, perhaps we could have the staff and the city attorney's office going over you know how

francisco structure as it currently exists is quite successful and i would appreciate commissioner sugaya and borden's comments regarding the housing language and the comment of commissioner sugaya raised about pdr and its proximity to downtown where the services are needed. many people and corporate entities relocate because of that fact and we are well advised at what look at what works and not tinker or change it. i think that we need to ex-expand because there are a few cities that can retrofit along with the principals and i think that since we moved ourself, are proving ourselves coming out of a constrained economy, i think that we should even pay more attention to that very fact. and director william and to you, i would appreciate if this particular report has the one that we mentioned in the past week would also on the library accessible to the people including ourselves if we needed it because not all of us can keep these things in our homes any more. >> thank you. >> commissioner antonini? >> just a follow up on that pdr, and it would be interesting to see what was defined becau
