All right. Good afternoon, everyone. Im london breed, im mayor of San Francisco. And today we are joined by the department of Emergency Management, director carol as well as the department of Public Health director, dr. Grant coal fashion. Colfax. We are joined by police chief scott as well as our sheriff and the director of homelessness and housing services, abigail kahn. Today we want to provide a few updates of where we are and and some very serious challenges that we face. So far as of today, we have confirmed 797 cases and sadly 13 people have lost their lives due to the virus. The covid19 virus. And we had said all along that this would be very challenging, and in fact, in the past week or so, dr. Colfax and i continued to make it clear that it is of course important to stay at home as much as possible. Because the fact is the worst is yet to come. And today, unfortunately, we have a situation that we knew could potentially happen in one of our congregate living settings. An outb
Were proposing two things. As the addition was pitched to us as a green room or garden room, a place to get direct sun light and do some light gardening, if that is the case, why not keep this front area open and make it sort of a green roof or terrace with plants . This would be more practical and intent for its intents and purposes. This solution would eliminate all concern about the new mass and the topography of the street. This would be a large green area, sunny and exposed, where they could take care of plants. If this solution seems too radical, we would like the project to get a larger set back from the street. Maybe this should be revisited. Also, the height of the building, while under the 35foot limit, should be adjusted on either side. Simply being in line and simply being in line with current roof from the previously addition seems to make a lot of sense and be less disruptive to the street. We do have four other neighbors on our side of the street who feel similarly to us
You have heard from the neighbors. For the past four years we have been abused by manipulations and false measurements and development to seek the vastly increased size of the existing house and squeeze another house on the property. Last july responding to wide ranging misrepresentations and inappropriate revisions the Planning Commission by 51 vote issued discretionary review ordering the full restoration of the existing three story bay window on the south side of the home. This was critical action. Full restoration of the three story bay restores the home to original design. It is important to note the 25 25 17th avenue occupies two lots. With the three story bay extends to both lots. By eliminating the window they can squeeze another house into that lot. To our great dismay on january 20, 2020, six months after the Planning Commission with the 51 vote the city approved the Building Permit based to the revised architectural plan for partial restoration of the bay. Two of the origina

On april 3, 2020, the Planning Commission received authorization from the Mayors Office to reconvene through may 3, 2020, recognizing that the commissi commissions condition of concern projects is an essential consideration. It needs to consider action items pertaining to infrastructure, housing, and Small Businesses. Today, the Planning Commission reconvenes for the first time in its history remotely using telecommunications. It may at times be slow, and it may be clumsy. Therefore, we ask your patience.
