Discussion and action. Resolution number 182019. Madam director . Thank you to the chair. This item is an amendment to the minute master plan in term of increasing limits to both residential and commercial retail uses within commission base out for eat i turn it over to nikki henry to present on this item. Hello commissioners, i am a specialist with mission a project manager. The requested action before you day the requested action before you today is amendment to the Mission Bay South master plan. Inc. Using the limits of residential signage allowing directional signage standards for mixed retail uses and decreasing the clearance for fin sign. This allows me to reflect ability implementing and or. These are all update that allow, controls respond better to the architecture and uses. The Mission Bay Souths plan was adopted on june 27, 2,000 by the former agency commission. It has been amended twice. The first on march 17, 2015 to allow commercial signage above the height of the 280 freeway. The second on june five, 2018 establish comprehensive Signage Program for blocks 3922. The existing residential signage limit allow maximum of 20 square feet of sign area with no individual sign exceeding ten square feet on 34th streets. And a maximum of 15 where feet of sign area on other street with no individual signage to exceed five square feet. They do not allow longer building names to be effectively communicated. The proposed standards would allow a maximum of 50 square feet. Exceeding 15 square feet. The proposed standard creates more flexibility for current and future projects to successfully communicate the building identity. Mission bay, 119 affordable unit housing product is named after the late mayor lee. This rendering depicts the allowable signage under the existing standard where the building entrance is. You can see the whole name is not visible. This is the proposed signage. As you can see the full building name is shown in size balances of the architectural building. As Mission Bay South nears completion it is evident directional signage may be needed to guide people to their destination. The existing standard allows directional signs for commercial, industrial and hotel uses only. The proposed amendment would allow existing standard to be applied to retail and residential uses also. Here is an example example of directional signage. The proposed amendment would allow similar signage for mixed use retail and residential uses on a case to case basis area the fin sign clearance standard for all uses identified clearance minimum of 12 feet. This is constrained uses from implementing fin sign due to architectural details like setbacks and canopies. The proposed amendment would allow the height to decrease to 10 feet above the sidewalk to providing yeast flexibility. On the left is the 12 feet, on the right is the 12 feet. As you can see the two fit high clearance is minimal. They reviewed the proposed amendments at the may 9, 2019 meeting i recommended approval. The vote was seven in favor of one opposed the member opposed express the residential Square Footage signage limits should be higher. The proposed amendment are implementing action and required no further environmental review. I am here to answer any question that you have. Thank you, but we need to take Public Comments right now. Do we have any weaker cards . No speaker cards. You might as well just stay there. [laughter] we may have rations for you. Any commissioners have any questions or comments . No, i just saw it looks good to me. I dont know a whole lot about it, i looked at fin sign, can you ask wayne out a little bit more to me . Fin sign are a projecting sign on the face of the buildi building. Usually at a more pedestrian scale, something he see as youre walking by. Throughout mission bay we have many architectural detailing canopies and things. They come out a little lower, say a 12 feet. The requested action is increasing that up to ten. Thank you. Would you like to make a motion anyone . Yes. I will make the motion to approve the amendments for the mission they south signage plan which would increase the residential signage, and allow directional signage standards for residential and mixed use retail uses and implementing action on the Mission Based subsequent Environmental Impact report.

We are doing a celebration with them share our appreciation for the work they have done for the agency. Thank you. Congratulations. Thank you. I do want to note that back in june we had members from our team, the vice chair, participated in the National Association of minority contractors held as well as a local contractor. I think what we understand is that it was so well raised leaved that we have attendees talking about what we do in San Francisco as well as other jurisdictions. I want to commend you for taking the time for leaving that effort, as well. Since our last meeting, official meeting, we had a grand opening of 626 mission bay boulevard. Mayor breed and supervisor haney were there to celebrate the opening. 143 units. Ten cop holders anticipated. 150 children are living in the project, as well. I just wanted to share its always nice after going through the sole process. To actually have family to see them receiving it well is really good. And lastly, i know we share this back then. On june six, we lost a pillar in the Hunters Point community. I am sure im going to butcher the name which i am known for doing. He was an acting member, some Congressional Church in San Francisco ben and the bayview for over 59 years he has worked for the mta as well, he was former president of the Southeast Commission number. As well as the San Francisco chamber of commerce leadership for him. He also president of the board of Community Development center. A former member of the housing authority. Most recently a member of the Hunters Point shipyard. He was a community activist. He will be missed. I think we share that with the commission, i just wanted to make sure i shared that again, to extend his service area with that, i have nothing to add. I want to remind folks that the Community Session is tomorrow. I can send information with regard to ucsf and uc berkeley list and, they are not intending to produce a report. They are there to listen to the community, what they would like to be reflected in the report. It is more like a listening, not an interaction. That would be held at the site office at 6 30. There is a question by a member of the commission on the report . No area no. The next order of business is item nine jik, commissioners questions on matters area. On the report for the resolution, number 122019. I noticed on page 3 where it lists the Community Business organization, we are missing the excess sentence.

When you go, lets see, the attachment, and it talks about the hiring goals, number two, then it talks about agency, compliance on the next page. Then it lists we are missing the success.

Working with kids, they keep you young. They keep you on your tones on your toes. Teaching them, at the same time, us learning from them, everything is fulfilling. Ready . Go. [ ] we really wanted to find a way to support Women Entrepreneurs in particular in San Francisco. It was very important for the mayor, as well as the Safety Support the dreams that people want to realize, and provide them with an opportunity to receive funding to support improvements for their business so they could grow and thrive in their neighborhoods and in their industry. Three, two, one because i am one of the consultants for two nonprofits here for entrepreneurship, i knew about the grand through the renaissance entrepreneur center, and through the Small Business development center. I thought they were going to be perfect candidate because of their strong values in the community. They really give back to the neighborhood. They are from this neighborhood, and they care about the kids in the community here. When molly molly first told us about the grant because she works with Small Businesses. She has been a tremendous help for us here. She brought us to the attention of the grand just because a lot of things here were outdated, and need to be uptodate and redone totally. Hands in front. Recite the creed. My oldest is jt, he is seven, and my youngest is ryan, he is almost six. It instills discipline and the boys, but they show a lot of care. We think it is great. The moves are fantastic. The women both are great teachers. What is the next one . My son goes to fd k. He has been attending for about two years now. They also have a summer program, and last summer was our first year participating in it. They took the kids everywhere around San Francisco. This year, owner talking about placing them in summer camps, all he wanted to do was spend the entire summer with them. He has strong women in his life, so he really appreciates it. I think that carries through and i appreciate the fact that there are more strong women in the world like that. I met dandrea 25 years ago, and we met through our interest in karate. Our professor started on cortland years ago, so we grew up here at this location, we out he outgrew the space and he moved ten years later. He decided to reopen this location after he moved. Initially, i came back to say, hey, because it might have been 15 years since i even put on a uniform. My Business Partner was here basically by herself, and the person she was supposed to run the studio with said great, you are here, i started new Nursing School so you can take over. And she said wait, that is not what i am here for i was by myself before for a month before she came through. She was technically here as a secretary, but we insisted, just put on the uniform, and help her teach. I was struggling a little bit. And she has been here. One thing led to another and now we are coowners. You think a lot more about safety after having children and i wanted to not live in fear so much, and so i just took advantage of the opportunity, and i found it very powerful to hit something, to get some relief, but also having the knowledge one you might be in a situation of how to take care of yourself. The selfdefence class is a new thing that we are doing. We started with a group of women last year as a trial run to see how it felt. Theres a difference between selfdefence and doing a karate class. We didnt want them to do an actual karate class. We wanted to learn the fundamentals of how to defend yourself versus, you know, going through all the forms and techniques that we teaching a karate class and how to break that down. Then i was approached by my old high school. One once a semester, the kids get to pick an extra curricular activity to take outside of the school walls. My old biology teacher is now the principle. She approached us into doing a selfdefence class. The girls have been really proactive and really sweet. They step out of of the comfort zone, but they have been willing to step out and that hasnt been any pushback. It is really great. It is respect. You have to learn it. When we first came in, they knew us as those girls. They didnt know who we were. Finally, we came enough for them to realize, okay, they are in the business now. It took a while for us to gain that respect from our peers, our male peers. Since receiving the grant, it has ignited us even more, and put a fire underneath our butts even more. We were doing our summer camp and we are in a movie theatre, and we just finished watching a film and she stepped out to receive a phone call. She came in and she screamed, hey, we got the grant. And i said what . Martial arts is a passion for us. It is passion driven. There are days where we are dead tired and the kids come and they have the biggest smiles on their faces and it is contagious. We have been operating this program for a little over a year all Women Entrepreneurs. It is an extraordinary benefit for us. We have had the Mayors Office investing in our program so we can continue doing this work. It has been so impactful across a diversity of communities throughout the city. We hope that we are making some type of impact in these kids lives outside of just learning karate. Having selfconfidence, having discipline, learning to know when its okay to stand up for yourself versus you just being a bully in school. These are the values we want the kids to take away from this. Not just, i learned how to kick and i learned how to punch. We want the kids to have more values when they walk outside of these doors. Testing testing testing. Testing testing testing. Who this is the meeting of the San Francisco Entertainment Commission. I am the commissions president. If you like to speak, there are speaker forms which can be filled out and they are located in the front table. You can hand them to one of our staff or you can come to the microphone when we called for Public Comment. We do ask that everyone turns off their cell phones or put someone silent, including commissioners and staff. We want to thank San Francisco government t. V. And Media Services for sharing this meeting with the public and we will start with a roll call. [roll call] all right. The first order of business is general Public Comment. This is for Public Comment and any item that is not on the agenda tonight. If anybody has something to say it for something not on the agenda seeing then, general Public Comment is closed. Lets get into the regular meeting. The next agenda item is item number 2. Approval of our minutes for june 18th, 2019. I will ask, do we have a motion to approve the minutes of june 18th, 2019 . I moved to approve. Second. Is there any Public Comment on the Meeting Minutes from june 18th, 2019 . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. [roll call] the minutes are approved. The next agenda item is the report from our executive director. Thank you. Good evening, commissioners. Jumping into my report, the first thing i wanted to let you all know about, and i am hopeful that you received notification about this through various social Media Channels as well as forwarding along via email, we are very excited to share that the mayor issued an executive directive to streamline special events in San Francisco. So you will see her press release inside of your binder, as well as the actual executive directive language, and that s. F. Chronicle article that came out right at the time that the directive was issued. The Entertainment Commission is playing a role in this process. We will be a seat on this during committee. Essentially this is born out of a lot of the work that the Entertainment Commission has been doing over the past several years. Specifically in dylan rices work as our analyst looking at Outdoor Events and looking at how complex and decentralized the process is across city agencies currently. And so this committee will look at our current process and explore ways in which we can improve that process, not only through an organizational structure, but also through looking at our fee structures the way that they are right now, looking at Creative Financial Solutions to support our communitybased events, as well as looking at potential share to digital platforms which would also help enhance the Customer Experience so that there is one platform that they would use, as well as on the city agency side. So we are extremely excited about this. This is step one in what will be probably a lengthy process, but we are going to be our committee will be providing recommendations and a report to the mayor within six months. So we are looking at january for that. We will certainly share that report with you. We are preparing this alongside our move to 49 south van ness. When we moved to the new building, there will be a permit center there and so timing is really appropriate because were moving into this space and we want to have a path for success once we are in there. That is one item. Im happy to answer questions about that or just take questions at the end. Whatever you prefer. Next on the agenda is just introducing our newest employee to the Entertainment Commission. We are very happy to have Jordan Roberts join our team. He is filling the Senior Inspector role in the office, and jordan has about 11 years of experience in acoustical consulting. He got a degree from Columbia College chicago and audio arts and acoustics, so he is really a fantastic person for this position. He is helping revamp our process for doing sound testing already. He is only five days in at this point, so jordan, we are very pleased to have you on the team. You will also see him doing the presentation of the enforcement report to moving forward after today as the Deputy Director is currently training him on all aspects of enforcement. Moving right along, i wanted to update you all that the Entertainment Commission is playing this role that every time we have largescale events in the city, pride was our most recent one where we partner with the department of Emergency Management in helping our events and our venues be better prepared during these big events pride was another example. We did the same work around new years eve where we had our inspectors go out and flyer different venues and known events with alert s. F. So the patrons and venues can actually sign up for alert s. F. Just in case there is any kind of emergency during pride or next it will be halloween, and so on and so forth. So they went to 73 businesses or they distributed 73 flyers at 36 businesses. We also do our work to compile events for all city agencies. We have our master calendar of events again focusing in on big events that are coming up. We go ahead and put together a master spreadsheet for all agencies to be able to see her Situational Awareness as and for what is going on. We attach that here in the binder fee to check out. Finally, under corrective action , i had to unfortunately issue a suspension for Public Safety on june 21st to june 24 th for club malibu, and the details of that are in your binder. I would prefer not to discuss this in detail at our hearing, just because this is currently under investigation by the police department. But we are going to continue to monitor this these premises and ensure compliance with their security plan and conditions of their permit. Do you have any questions about any of those items . I do have a question. Is there any discussion in terms of the formation of the special events task force within the scope at this point . Any discussion, what do you mean . What is the formation process so the mayor designated two cochairs as this hearing committee. So it is the city in ministry to kelly, as well as director torres from the office of economic and workforce development. So they are tasked with coming up with the agency that will be involved in the committee, and so we are looking at, primarily regulatory agencies that will sit on the committee. It is supposed to be made up of city agencies as opposed to event producers, but we do plan to engage other stakeholders throughout the process. They are just not voting members of the committee. Thank you. Yep. Also related to that, first of all, it is exciting to see the city moving forward and building on all of this. It is so worth it, but how will this help move that forward . What is this going to enable this mission on the city to do beyond what dylan has already been able to do in and the work that is already underway . This is calling to light what the actual problem is that all of us have been so close to for the past several years, just because analysts have been working so closely on this and in keeping you all apprised, but now it is really getting much more recognition at a city level , which was very necessary, and we havent brought together these agencies to look at this problem. I dont know if it ever has happened, so we are that is the first thing. We need to really discuss what the issue areas and the pain points are and come up with possible solutions to address
