And what would you say dont expect that is going to be the case. What would you say if the project sponsor [laughter] this is news i know to the director. It has to do with the fact that were putting people in [speaker not understood] with the project sponsor as opposed to staff, okay. What if they offered him the use of one of the condos that the developer will hold, a studio, once a month for anything he wants to do there, meeting or party or whatever, no more than 20 people and he has to get permission from the sponsor and of course subject to the hoa. And then what if they offered to pay part of his personal Legal Expense that the sponsor had caused . Would this maybe be a short conversation . I really think so because i was a federal Civil Servant and i would have more respect for my job and i frankly think that the director would have more respect for his and for his salary and for, you know, his position and responsibility. But when you put this in the hands of people who have i
Others, but at this stage, david, what do we know . Well, the votes are crazy and as i tweeted even crazier than usual is what people are telling me, carl. So i think that im loathe to conclude one thing or another in terms of who has changed their vote. We have seen reports out there, and yes, i had the information a while ago, but things can change back. In is not the typical go to the polling booth and vote. You can, if you are black rock say you are voting against and pull the vote and then say you are voting for and they can keep the polls open by the way for as long as they want if they get the special committee, if they get the outcome they are looking for, then they can close them, and that outcome being the vote in favor. Now, my sense from having spoken to people around the situation today, this morning and of course for the last nine months is that they are still trailing, and that would be the dell camp, in terms of getting enough yes votes for the approval, and remember, i
Bulb outs make our neighborhood more livable. Shorting the distance at crosswalks make our neighborhood more livable. Street scapes make our neighborhood more livable. And finally creating gathering places for us and the neighbors make our neighborhoods more livable. And also they are invited to join dolores united. You are welcome. I and the members of dolores united fully support this. Thank you. Any additional Public Comment . Okay, seeing none. Public comment is closed. Commissioner sugaya. Thank you, i have a few questions. I dont know if this is directed to staff or the project sponsor. The project sponsors estimate of cost is 510,000. And as i understand what we would be approving in terms of the agreement. That number would be used in the agreement specifically as the value that the project sponsor will be subtracting from the rest of the impact fee that they are subject to, is that correct . Yes, thats correct. What happens if the project sponsors Construction Costs for the im
Of 13 full blocks and 8 partial blocks stretching from kansas street to interstate 2 80, the starbucks and sbaeerctiontionv located at the corner of 16th and kansas streets are the only two formula retail uses. By the whole foods located at the Southwest Corner of 17th and rhode island street is [speaker not understood], falls within the mur Zoning District where formula retail uses are principally permitted. The sbaeerctiontionv at kansas and 16th street is the only other Financial Service or bank formula retail or otherwise located within this contiguous umu Zoning District. And while the umu Zoning District encourages wide uses, residential, retail offices and [speaker not understood], currently located within this contiguous umu district. Regarding Public Comment, to date the department has received no Public Comment on this project. In order for the project to move forward, the Planning Commission must grant conditional use authorization to allow a new formula retail use within th
Dominated by an overly blue flickring sign at night where, when you get to this intersection, you will use it as a mark for where you are. That is what i want to avoid. Commissioner antonini. Im certainly open to suggestion as to toning down the intensity of particular signage with relation to color, although i dont know we necessarily have to be to the point where were dictating certain colors are not acceptable in certain areas. I would be very happy to see that applied to some commercial and residential areas where some houses are painted color thats that are really eyesores and, you know, unfortunately we cant do much about that and thats even more of an eyesore than a sign thats a little bit too intense a color of blue. But i think this is a good project. As has been pointed out, im in favor of putting language in our approval that would allow staff to work with the entity to make sure that the sign is intensity of the colors is not overly disturbing to the area. However, i think
