Individual who is hsa had this longterm institution is actually the victim of rent increases and found another location interesting enough in a property he was ones previously located in and i think actually as i look back on code section 19 h1 thing that occurred which is that district 3 is significantly different than the rest of the city in one go profound way i know that supervisor wiener is about to hear which is that by night we have the same number of residents as every other district in the city again day by virtue of downtown and virtue of the remarkable number of tourist that come to the Northeast Corner of city we have hundreds of thousands for people by day and had i been around representing district 3 in those days, i might have made an amendment it district 3 should have gun allowed a more significant number but the business is nominated for inclusion in the legacy business registry the binding is in operation id like to take the opportunity with no breaks in excess of two years for over a quarter of a century it is a Family Business run by the box family and employees a number of individuals i think this measure is in the Public Interest we should go forward that concludes my presentation.

Thank you, madam chair im happy to support this i think very limited expectation i was a cosponsor of i think you madam chair of the legislation that was really designed to reduce the number of tobacco outlets that a very, very important piece of legislation we need to reduce in certain neighborhoods the number of tobacco outlets about there are times exceptions to consider i think this one of them im told this not an outlet it sells cigarettes or seeing none, Public Comment is closed r e e cigarettes this is an existing family owned business the kind of business to support in San Francisco o San Francisco and not adding to the number of tobacco outlets it is simply allowing a long time existing use to move a few hundred feet away from something outside of their control in terms of landlord i think whether it was raising represented or bring in a higher paying tenants that so often happens into our neighborhood businesses those days unfortunately, this is a Good Opportunity for us to support a small family owned neighborhood business without undermining our goals in the legislation around reducing but number of tobacco outlets im happy to support this and send it out with a positive recommendation.

Thank you very much madam chair this legislation will help us to meet our goal in california aggressive goal to move towards a new and renewable future in a way from fossil fuels the increase of solar energy in San Francisco the legislation is simple and straightforward in any Construction Projects between one and 10 stories in height will be required to install solar lemons on the projects rooftops either solar panels for electrical or heating the legislation was considered and supported unanimously by both the Building Inspection Commission and the commission on the environment today californias existing state building codes on title 24 requires month new construction to designate 15 percent of rooftop area quote unquote solar ready free of obstacles and enbunts a future owner Felt Building is consider to place solar panels on the roof the legislation before us today takes us to the next step by saying that in San Francisco instead of the roof 15 percent of roof being solar ready that rather 15 percent needs to be Solar Installed meaningless the solar panels for electricity will be placed as part of the project colleagues in an era were remind daily and how are you or by the minute of a rapidly changing wliement it is critical important we do the best we can locally and ultimately at a state level internationally and nationally to make our environment more sustainable reducing energy accumulations and Carbon Emissions is a result of more sustainable city this legislation which focuses on solar is the first part of what will be a two part effort to promote San Francisco rooftops added to the city the next expands the provision to promote greener roofs in general id like to thank the staff of the department of the environment their support on the legislation and also thank andrea for his work colleagues no initial questions or comments id like to invite up barry from the Investment Infrastructure to make a brief presentation. Im may we have on behalf of our decoration to recommend our approval for this ordinance the goal of the city encap sludz in the zero waste 50 percent of trips by sustainable modes of transportation and 100 percent Renewal Energy and carbon back into our trees and soil 0 so it 100 Percent Renewable Energy for the resources and continued improvement in terms of efficiency San Francisco has lead the way and adopted the standards more consistent nanny other city in california and bring the recommended to you in the future were talking about the office how to develop the generation resources and San Francisco, of course, is a leader there for the citys a facility for the 100 percent electricity and confusing sf for the electricity option for a wide variety of constituents this ordinance represents. Pleases speak into the mike thank you. Excuse me the ordinance represents one more straightforward and pragmatic step towards that goal its been demonstrated highly cost fiscal the ordinance is a product of considerable throughout the key question have been cost and benefits since 2008 the cost to install is gown 50 percent and the analysis that was conducted by the department of the environment in part of the light recognizes thats cost fiscal on all buildings weve analyzed with an San Francisco climate zone conducted 1984 meetings with a way variety of sfrrld with the department of building inspection and the building departments commission and held numberable meetings particularly with the Affordable Housing be developers that indicated in many cases ahead of the ordinance in terms of of the new properties and the result is reasonable and practical it building on a state coat and Cost Effective and therefore the department of the environment recommends your approval thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you why not go to Public Comment. Oh, supervisor peskin do you want to q ask a question. On to supervisor wiener on page of a provision a new provision that says any new building of Group Occupancy with electric data progressing will be the exempt from the Energy Exemptions by the sections mentioned can you explain why that is in there. I think ill ask mr. Hooper to explain that provision. Sure that was inserted at the request of the stakeholder that was responsible for city agency that is developed some data centers and the main issue is practicality the data center is served by a network of individual rooftop units across the rooftop it is changing to reserve a space for the solar. So if it was just for one Public Agency presumably and not heard from the rest of the Stakeholder Community why did we write such a broad exemption. To facilities today that are stand alone data centers one under construction it is theyre used type in general to be constructed i think the impact is small but so if if i may respect through the charge to supervisor wiener i think we should probably better define Electronic Data Processing because clearly the way staff is presenting it, it is a very narrow definition but the way it is written it seems like it could apply to a broad swap of building types we need to look at language i mean Electronic Data Processing could be a lot of people do everyday and but i think there is a section between data progressing and a processing central we have to define is it so this is not end up being an unat the end broader will that so supervisor thank you for bringing that up why not over the next week weigh take a look at appropriate clarifying language it is fairly intend to an narrow category and to be a valid point you raised so well work on the language i dont think that it would be a substantive amendment. The comment it is good it staff is here were requiring that installation of solar which im absolutely supportive of should we consider the impact of on buildings that will be required to install that when other buildings will ultimate shadow those installations is it fair for us to say you have to install those and next to a 10 Story Building we permit a 80 Story Building that shadows that roof is that a fair thing to do i dont think expect to answer that but a conversation 3 is had at department of the environment and start having at the board of supervisors as we start mauntd the installation. If you have a comment on that. Sure two parts it is an insightful question weve thought about a little bit this is part of the reason the trailing legislation were working with the Planning Department on will provide living roofs as a compliance option so the developer will have more fleblthd how a taller building in the solar system to be constructed between the 15 or 20 years after construction the other factor we looked at was that the given the economic imperative to build to whatever the height to build to at a give time it is going to be less frequent that somewhere comes to past we need first a new building subject to the ordinance and then a new building after that to be built the first building so were depending on second building being permitted construction and delivered within the first 15 or 20 years after the initial building a of story was completed given the construction timeline will be relatively aware but a living we are as i to build on what i mentioned briefly any opening remarks were working on trailing legislation that will provide an Opening Statements instead of instead of the 15 percent solar could choose thirty percent for green roof and so if youre building a building is already shadow that might not might be a good choice to give you that flexibility. If i may if youre building a building that is shadowed under this version the ordinance will not apply. All right. Thank you very much 3 cards in front of me calling names . Good afternoon. My name is a Jeanine Carter the cofounder of a Solar Building firm and im also a member of the board of directors our state trade organizations for Solar Installer and rooftop solar state of california and im here in support of this legislation San Francisco has always been a leader in he and continues to be a leader with groundbreaking legislation this is where we need to go as a planets im pleased to be here in supportive and lancaster, california both have mandate and theres no reason why San Francisco shouldnt lead the way for the large city and state rooftop solar is eloquent and efficient way to deal with greening and decategorization of the supply when the panels are generating 2rb89 they serve the trouble load of the building so when i plug my electrical car in when the sun is shining my car is driving on sunshine there is no better way to drive the Clean Green Energy in San Francisco than providing four generation and rooftop solar it is the democracy of our Electricity Supply thank you. Next speaker, please.
