Probably non conforming uses. In terms of creating new non conforming uses there is none of that but a good one is the creation of pdr in bay view as well as other examples. I think the notice is just important because we get people at the last minute that who didnt realize this was going on because they didnt get a legal notice and people dont see things until theyre in front of their faces anyway, and i guess the other question about the notification. Okay. Now youre going to have legal non co...

This 11th street corridor and i earlier stated my preference for what i believe is wmuo which is option 3b and one of the reasons it would also allow office and presumably allow retail in that area which contributes to day time uses that would help the vitality of the area because if you have a lot of entertainment uses typically clubs they dont come into play until late at night and allowing some office and retail and day time commercial things would keep the district moving throughout the day ...

Process. Instead of macro decisions on sequa its based on who put out their hand and accepted money and said its for community benefit, you know. Actually a representative from the mta very eloquently said after that, the unanimous vote was taken to oppose the vote. Now i want to say that is rather disappointing and theres a reason for that. When you decide that youre going to Pay Attention to some little group rather than the community at large you crush the public process. In that district of ...

There. The other question i had and somebody brought this up. Is there any call for metering and housing . I think we may have asked that last week and i was assured there wasnt but somebody brought that up. In the plan, in the area plan that would be adopted in the general plan there is a policy that says that we should establish a Community Stabilization policy that attempts i am paraphrasing and Affordable Housing afford and jobs and its about that balance. Separate from the plan the task for...

Fact of demolitions. The famous 2727 barker street was supposed to be a remodel they demolished everything but one wall. Where this goes into something calvin talked about theres so many illegal evictions and your eliminating third legal units just by the say so of the developer. There should be some causes that said first of all, if you have demolition that you should have 3 reports that show you have to demolition it. And on the legal units theyre saying they have to prove they say they arent ...

1095 Market Street is a critical intersection and the supervisors is concerned this project has been vacant since the last tenant in 2011 and 2012. It was a place there were formerly nonprofit organizations and the supervisor at this point is very he concerned about the displace of employment of nonprofit organizations particularly on that corridor. The faculties left vacant is a concern for the supervisor. We the supervisor would have liked to see Something Like that a oneyear extension but aft...

Look at that in much more detail than we were able to do so certainly the ah nalis will be before you in the future. Thank you. I appreciate that and i think the rest of my comments be best taken up during the approval of the plan itself, and they have to do with the zoning and it does have to do with the Historic Structures and whether they have more flexible uses, but i dont believe those are Environmental Issues at this time. Commissioner sugaya. Yeah, i move to certify. Second. All on motion...
