thank you. >> mr. wu >> yes. >> when you bought the property, your title report showed 6 units? >> yes. the mls unit on the title report --. >> i understand. you have accepted checks from the tenant since march? >> we did. >> so you knew there was an illegal unit. >> we knew there was unwarranted studio. this is only the second apartment building that we owned at the time. we've never had the case of an illegal unit. we, you know -- frankly, if someone had pointed out to us earlier that the situation was of that type, we would have acted sooner. but we are, you know, we are not real estate professionals, we hold this as an investment property. we actually thought unwarranted studios were, i didn't know the details of the law with regard to this. i didn't know that there was a 9 times penalty for not acting in the situation. i didn't know that there was, you know, there's a procedure you had to follow to make this happen. so we are as much a victim of the previous land lord as the tenant. we're acting in perfectly good faith and you follow the timeline, as soon as we met with our

have your own distinct set of findings, i believe the hearing is for next week. >> thank you. >> commissioner wu? >> thank you. to answer commissioner antonini's question, i believe it is better to put that -- the requirement on the prioritization of the money in a resolution that the commission can consider separately, hopefully next week, can we calendar that for next week? so, that it's clear and there's a chance to be able to review it. following on this train of thought, if i can ask mr. switzky some questions, also in the qualitative description, it says that individual projects must demonstrate that they have refined the building design. i think my question is then, how do you prove that you have refined the design, how do you prove that you have not just taken the entire shadow allocation and just built to the edges of that shadow allocation? >> well, commissioner borden was asking this, i think we can as future projects come forward slow the design refinements and how projects have been shaped and to some extent, it would be on the project sponsor's architects to show earlier versions o

you. commissioner wu? >> aye. >> commissioner fong? >> aye. >> thank you, commissioners. that motion passed 6 to 1 with commissioner moore voting against. congratulations. thank you. commissioners, you are now on item number 14, case no. 2012.09 28 ddd for 2000 20th street, requested discretionary review. thank you. >> are we done? >> ladies and gentlemen, we actually have further business to take care of on the agenda today. so, if you can wrap up conversations can take them outside, that would be great. >> okay. before staff starts, i have a protocol question. when is the appropriate time or how, when, can a make a motion to continue? * can i make a motion to continue? >> you can do that at any point. i mean, we've called the item into the record. you might want to let staff give its presentation. and when you get to commissioners deliberation, make the motion for continuance, or you can do it now if you want. >> if you want to explain your rationale. >> i've had some communication with staff with respect to the drawings and what has been presented to us to consider. an

you. >> commissioner wu. >> linda, i also really want to thank you. we've only had the pleasure of working together for the last eight months but i couldn't have done it without you. i think becoming a commissioner on this commission is one of the hardest in the city and guided countless commissioners through the years. you have been a champion for the commission for the nndz of the commission, for the commission to assert its own important and that is important and also as a liaison for the public and helped them through the difficulty of the planning code and deal with the procedures of the planning commission so thank you. >> commissioner moore. >> i like to say i like to thank you what you teach me and what you teach us every week and that is civil civic dialogue. i think you're an example for making this room a bright discussion, an informed discussion for everybody, and it is you holding all the strings of what is happening in your hands and doing that wisely every week. i only will say one thing about that picture. that was actually taken on th

if you wu it, must use limit orders. don't pay up. i think isis is owning, going into the fda panel on thursday. don't chase the stock. buy half your position on monday. do not pay up and if it spikes based on what i'm talking about, let it go. that's okay. we'll take a pass. if aegerion gets thumbs up, isis will probably pull back hard and that will give you a chance to buy more ahead of thursday's meeting. here is the strategy. half on monday as long as it's not chasing up and half after the aegerion panel on tuesday. to take advantage of any dips. i imagine it will be 12, drops to 10. maybe it doesn't drop at all. and have you half a position. if you want to stay engaged with the market you have to speculate. i sanctioned that, i have to make you interested. ring the register with nps pharma and we move on to the next. >> hot to trot. cramer is finding the big stocks that big money is buying hand over fist. tonight, the temperature reaches a fevered pitch. as he adds two biotech behemoths to his 4q hot list. >>> all week i've been

you wu. - warm up. - warm up, okay? and if it blows this way, what's it hit? begin with a cal f-o-r-n-i-- so california is a much warmer place in the winter than east coast communities of the same latitude. ain't that neat, okay? in fact, any place that's surrounded by water has just about the same temperature all year round. how about the best place in the world, right here? [laughter] that's hawaii, huh? the hawaiian islands, okay? the hawaiian islands about the same temperature all year round, but not only the hawaiian islands. iceland way up here has about the same temperature all year round, yeah. surrounded by water, okay? when it tends to be cold, the cooling water would heat it up. when it tends to be hot, the warming water will cool it down. so water acts as a moderator. aren't you glad that water has a high specific heat? yum, yum, itad to do with the world we live in, yeah? something else about water, kind of neat too. water is the only substance-- the only commosubstance that will expand when you change it from the liquid state to the solid state.

wu. >> thank you. so we do have the 2005 conditions in front of us and they fairly clearly state that the business shall be operating as retail store with wine tasting bar. i think it's really hard to support a business -- the business maybe doing well, or sort of a nice business owner, but it's hard to support that the original cu was not followed and i think it sends a bad message to other business owners that they don't necessarily have to follow the conditions of their approval, so i think it's possible for the business to condition to run under the original cu so i don't support the one in front of us today. >> commissioner sugaya. >> yes, if you go on the internet i don't see retail sales and it's operating that way in violation of the original conditional use and seems to me that the argument presented because it's been operating for seven years illegally now it's okay because it's a nice place and the owner is a nice guy and everything else and i couldn't understand the argument because they di

unless you consider the social consequences. >> commissioner wu. >> thank you. i want to raise a couple of points i think along those lines, because i believe that what happened is thatyou want to have more affordable housing in the corridor; what happens in san francisco is we are incentivizing the zoning two words the pdas, there is no money for affordable housing. we are in a situation where we zone to allow more developer but the only categories are the week to see above 125% above ami. a i think that i have always seen this tension; we want more development, no one wants to -- we have to be careful about what it means to thelow income neighborhoods where there is a lot of transportation. i have another question about jobs. i want to understand also see the projection for jobs but i want to understand what has happened with jobs up until this point chucky are just a been quite stable over the last 10 or 12 years. what might be different over the next period that we are seeing an increase in jobs and need to make the housing and transportation to accommodate

you look gorgeous as always. >> i love a man's sweat. i just -- lay it on me, baby. >> jimmy: i'm sorry. i'm still sweaty. i was just in a plastic ball with two of the wuf yours. i've been reading up, doing some research on you, stuff like that. i knew that you were raised in l.a., right? >> i was raised in l.a. to a costa rican mother and an american father. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: that's fun. now, did you always want to get into acting. is that your -- were they into acting as well or -- >> no, they weren't at all. i mean, my mother comes from a very idiosyncratic family, and she -- i don't know how to describe her. she comes from sort of a funny political family in costa rica, where they were all assassinating each other and, you know -- a lot of blood feuds and things like that. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: yeah. i don't know how you would describe that, yeah. [ laughter ] it's certainly not bubble soccer, you know? no, no, different sports altogether. >> and i'm just now getting the story, but -- and my father came from a family of gravediggers, so it was a real, you know, polar opposite. >> jimmy: wow. interesting. >> yeah. >> ji

any questions that you may provide answers to only makes it better. >> commissioner wu. >> thank you. if i could ask staff a couple of questions. i also want to thank you for the level detail in this report. i think there's been a lot of questions about shadows over the years . this answers some of them. i specifically want to ask questions about the impact fees. it was stated that the 12.5 million for new impact fees for parks outside the transit area plan. i'm curious to understand who collects the fees, who is responsible for enforcing the fees, which city agency deals with them after they are collected. the fees are collected by the planning department and dbi is part of the building entitlement and site permits. essentially fees are owed before the project can pull its first site permit. after entitlement typically if a large project is moving forward full steam ahead it is maybe a year or so before they pull the site permit. by that point fees are owed. it is part of the standard procedure. dbi won't issue permit unless demonstrated fees are paid. then goes to the city treasurer

wu? >> aye. >> commissioner fong? >> aye. >> thank you, commissioners, that is a unanimous vote for approval. commissioners, you are now on item number 9. case no. 2011.075 2c for 1830 ocean avenue. >> good afternoon, president fong and commissioners. i'm rick crawford of department staff. this case is -- excuse me. this case is to establish a 17,300 square foot formula retail grocery store doing business as fresh and easy neighborhood market in a space formerly occupied by rite aid pharmacy, a formula retail drugstore at 1830 ocean avenue within the ocean ave. nct district. the project will involve some modest interior modification to the exterior entries and windows of the building and new signage for the proposed store. the project would retain 130 existing off-street parking spaces at the property of which 46 are allocated to the grocery store. the store would seek to create a new on street loading zone along ocean avenue and will seek approval of the small curb cut similar in scale to a disabled access ramp to assess this loading corridor fronting on ocean ave.. this area was used for th

wu. aye. >> fong. aye. >> thank you. that's been approved as proposed. * >> are there any questions in matters? >> commissioner antonini. >> couple items in the news. the first was in today's "c francisco for the top city, i guess doing business, which comes as a surprise to many commenters and somewhat as a surprise to me. we will certainly take it. it might be based upon part of what was written in another article but carl nulte sunday when he talks about the sales force and good things we are seeing. however it was entitled, ignoring a beautiful and ugly city is crazy. i agree with carl. i believe he's made good statements. his comments, not mine, he talked about some of the people on the street. he felt they weren't just foreclosed homeowners but people who have long-term serious problems. yet everybody ignores this, has been for decades. i think he makes good points and ends his article by saying we pretend this doesn't exist. san francisco needs a psychiatrist, which is a well-written article. part of this, there i

. >> no, i think -- i had five seconds before you interrupted me, wu. >> terry smith. with jim lehrer, you know his style. what's your take on whether he lost control of that debate? >> well, you could say that. first of all jim is a friend and a colleague. i like that very much. he's a big boy. he can take the criticism. nighttime worried about him. i would say, more important than, that this was a new format, extremely complex format with six 15-minute segmented and two minutes at the top and it places a lot of time-keeping burden on the moderator and i think they may want to look at that going forward. the other thing is this is a format those two candidates agreed to in advance and then ignored. i mean these are all considerations. what jim was trying to do was to get the two candidates to question each other and do an exchange. >> he said he had no apologiy i for the way he handled it. that his job was to stand out of the way and let them handle it. he said it's a new format people aren't used to. >> yeah. what a no-win situation. if he injelkted himself more, we
