Is just i mean, i dont know if im going to be able to use this for very long, but as a new supervisor, as someone looking from the outside of the board of supervisors, i wonder why when we develop projects of this magnitude, do you look in a payment at the Affordable Housing fund, why we dont look at how we create Affordable Housing opportunities for potentially people who are going to maybe be working in these developments who are possibly the lowest wage earners of this and how, if were the ci...

But what im looking for as someone of district 5 who had received a number of commitments of the Western Addition, whether there would be significant Job Opportunities and also training for those opportunities. I need to know how this is actually going to translate to support for Western Addition residents. And i think that with the close proximity of what we are looking at, it only makes sense that significant outreach would be done to this particular community to cut back on the commute times ...

Own process and it would be expected its not proposed to be exactly like eastern neighborhoods. Some of the difference worth pointing out that in eastern neighborhoods, reduction of certain large developments is codified. In western soma, that is not codified and will be handled more under design standards. In eastern neighborhoods there is also opportunities for the zoning administrator. The wmug district, which is along most of the major streets north of harrison street, if it has essential in...

Years. This project the building was supposed to be condominiums that would take a year, year and a half and on top of that, we have all of this extraction. I have talked to city officials and i have asked them for help, information and lots of other things and i havent had any help or information given to me to help me cope with this whole project. So i am against this whole thing. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. I am brian hirsch, structural engineer, resident and Business Owner in no...

From. I am sympathetic to the businesses that will be impacted and every time we do major infrastructure work that in the long run will be hugely beneficial for the city or a neighborhood, sometimes there is disruption and we try to mine minimize that and do everything that we can to minimize the disruption. I believe this plan compared to other proposals does. Its using muni funds for expanding muni and improving transit service. And i would encourage the folks who have sent in those letters, i...

Umu have a residential impact fee tier of one, which is the lowest, regardless of how much zoning the property received. Instead the paying the city a standard rate for Affordable Housing or providing it, they are required to provide Affordable Housing on a higher tier based on the upzoning. So it basically works out to be same tradeoff. And by the way, i completely agree with you, and with supervisor kims comments in the beginning about how critical Affordable Housing is. And for that reason, n...

Impact Development Fee does not cover housing at all. And when the transit sustainability project and fee, a discussion that were having right now, i dont know what your confidence level that well see significant changes from the tdif. And well see what happens. But i wouldnt hang my hat on that. So great. Those are my questions. Supervisor kim. Thank you. I was just going say that i know well have a robust discussion after public comment, but i wanted to note that some of our folks have been wa...

Its been very frustrating to the people attending that meeting that we were not allowed to ask questions. The likelihood of a north beach stop is next to nil. The agreement with the owner does not allow for a station at that site, i understand. I would also like to dispute the idea that they keep saying it will be a 50 height limit on the project. Its supposed to be based on the conditions of the original permit, which limited the building to the existing building envelope only part of which was...

The block before columbus and union. I just wanted to reiterate what i have already told a lot of folks here and director reiskin, which is this is a difficult situation and i think the pagoda palace is the best alternative, as well as i can understand to minimize the disruption in north beach. During the period full time from august to the end of, nor when we had the utility work going forward, our monday to friday lunch sales dropped 25 . I would recommend that the city and mta consider some s...

About 6 million of that would come from transit and transitrelated impact fees. The only thing im not sure about there is we would have to look at the Development Potential site. Obviously the numbers used for 900 folsom is a large site , but we could do a more elaborate analysis of those sites within western soma for information next week. But for this week, such an analysis wasnt quite possible. But based on those numbers, if you project that out, using 900 folsom as an example, those numbers ...
