I had lunch with the commissioner and talked about about the pipeline and the number of unit director if you could estate the numbers puvenl or pubically i was kaurnld certainly currently there are approximately 45 thousand units entitled that includes the big what we call the 3 big partnering that are half of that number there is 6 thousand under construction another three or four thousand at dbi for permits and there are four or five thousand that are kind of that have had a Building Permit approved but have not actually officially started construction. Just the statement for the viewing public 45 thousand units about 6 thousand started other reasons why things dont get started because of financing or other issues so the pipeline is full of entitled unit. Should be online hopefully as fast as they can secondly, it has come to my attention a discretionary review on 100 percent Affordable Housing that came before us as a cu i recall that when Supervisor Scott Wiener was exempt 100 percent projects by eliminating the cu he stated to us in the room that the neighborhood and the community and the individual people with grieves could file and dr i never in my mind thought well be having a conditional use and a dr i want to say we have it on the action list we looked at ways to avert those things coming back to us twice when we looked at as a cu and not a dr a couple of other things we talked about the health we were very much worried about the amount of Square Footage coming on the market octavia developments i was hastened to see the coal hardware is opening up a store in north beach. They have. Actually, in the site of the form restaurant that had not taken flight so thats a success and with the Bernal Heights retails not acquit dead yet and one last thing that will probably come before us that is interesting this the chronicle Supervisor Scott Wieners permit bars to be closed at 4 00 a. M. To dictate whether or not we want that just in the chronicle came out against it basically San Francisco is not competing with new york and las vegas and new orleans were not coming here because we close our bars at 2 and talked about having it both ways it will slow down people and so they can get home if we serve them at 4 it defeats the purpose we will have to determine whether or not we want the bars open until 4 00 a. M. Thank you. Thank you any additional comments next item, please. Department matters denouncements. No new announcements this week commissioners, thank you. Item 6 actually, the board of supervisors did not meet there was no report from the board of appeals and the Historic Preservation commission didnt meet this week so we can monarch into general plan general comment not to exceed 15 minutes.

I have one speaker card for georgia swedish. Go ahead any general public comme comment. Good afternoon my name is paul wormer the Planning Department has taken a step that i half hour applaud and that is with respected to the response of a Public Record request their moving forward in the digital age and downloading the cds theyre putting them in a down loadable file for a period of time that makes makes sense but it also presumes a very skilled constituency that really understands is where this the stuff is stored how to download and for future access that is where things fall short if you dont have a computer at home and not Internet Access but locating person using Library Computers how do you deal with that digital file that needs to be downloaded and stored before that exteriors thats a challenge at a lot of public sites they dont let you download to the computer it might be that would be helpful from the Department Technical people pull together guidelines for the user on how to transfer what can be very, very large files from the department temporary storage site to Something Like a google drive or some other free access so that people who are concerned about something go on in the community actually get some help in extracting the Public Records files in a way that is usable and not stressing because of the next guideline how to go through that thank you. Ms. Hester. Sue hester i want to talk about a general planing issue that is an interesting week and there was reports points mta adopted permanently the google bus stops on tuesday and the report for the google buses to mta as well as the report today on the next item basically hunted on housing displaced that is created in San Francisco to serve Silicon Valley there should be a report to the Planning Commission a public report what the status say, i would like to know how much housing and transit was funded by permits on building in coping tin 0 mineral park and facebook all the companies on the peninsula that set up private bus systems to dump the Housing Demand in San Francisco how many people are on those buses coming to San Francisco expect to have housing in San Francisco and how do they affect the price of housing in San Francisco when you have like i have it opportunity to read a whole lot of eirs draft eirs on the routes that google buses are using but that is a shorthand term 15 hundred mission 15 hundred market and central soma a lot of the eastern neighborhoods are on the roots that where new housing is constructed is very, very easy to get to by dedicated buses to Silicon Valley San Francisco has had and a aligned requirement the commercial Developers Pay for expansion of muni and housing and childcare since the 80s it was a had a right battle took years 5 years at least some of them were even longer we had on the books in the planning code those requirements that basically focused on the San Francisco workforce the San Francisco developers of commercial space have to pay the money to expand housing in San Francisco we werent we never analyzed that we were also going to supply housing for cupping chin and the park they were going to have direct buses that stopped you in the city that effects the housing crisis magnificently. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners im denise a City Resident i live in district 3 i came here before a couple of times this year the first time in 2010 when i sat here with all my volunteers and the residents of nob hill when this commission decided to blankly approve live nations alcohol use it is a big bad idea any heart sank to the ground all the work and visitations were presented it breaks my heart for nob hill i know people say that note now district this is the city of San Francisco it matters no one knows what it is like to feel of feelings all of my pain and we i blame you that from behind blue eyes so you might know that song the reason i say that to you, please make the city safe live nation is about selling alcohol not the artists when it was falling down a wonderful show the conditional use permit is one thing all is intertweend and didnt makes sense my friends dont leave the house after 3 00 p. M. It has to end please, please consider what happens when you approve a permanent Liquor License in a residential neighborhood to piggyback on polk corridor permit is absurd i know you did it because thats all you care about it money people want to live and breathe and enjoy the city please make the city safe and stop approving permits for all the alcohol it is too much alcohol too much all over the place and it is a citywide problem work on union street it is deplorable not a good idea thank you for your time i wanted to make finish my point and let you, you know this is San Francisco no new york i love this city and everyone is here for a reason to be protected and preserve it thank you you. Thank you, ms. Swedish. This is for you commissioners good afternoon. I first came here february 2014 talking about alterations that are dooksz so there is the letter it is background 3 years hard to believe i have to say a couple of things the part in red we hope you do it is something about 317 i think that is an easy fix im not confident about the other part im a little less than optimistic about the threshold simply i dont know that will safe existing housing i think that anything that didnt save it is Affordable Housing ive seen things about that in certain neighborhoods i didnt like to talk about it i feel like im shining a spotlight but you know what im talking about 0 i dont know will happen with the rtd but 317 needs be fixed and b7 an easy fix read it and safe the second united and part in red id like that to mr. Ionin less than three hundred words thank you very much have a nice day. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Im confused what transpired did tell me 12 get moved off of the agenda. Yes. Continued to june 1st. May i ask why. To allow the sponsor time to modify the project. Okay. Next speaker, please. Item 12 seems like an awful long delay. The time to discuss it was when we took it up for continuance that item is continued to june 1st. It is very long after a long delay and the lady involved is concurring a big expense and shall we has the administration in mind i know. Thank you good afternoon, commissioners thank you, again fewer help with passing zoning laws and building housing in the city today, i want to speak about housing, of course, im a resident of city of San Francisco and housing that is delayed is housing that is denied the reason the political friends voice their anger and concern some enemy buzz are misinformed and restricting the supply didnt raise the rents the local review processes and overbearing regulations will help the Housing Stock they have over existing stock by printing the hopper theyve made the Housing Construction so restrained that the cost is the only viable choice to build in San Francisco over the last 40 years easy to distress the Housing Construction and impoverishing themselves paying low, low property tax they believe in hope instead of protectionism and new construction of measures with concession hope is something that it is better than the Current Situation if you are willing to work hard thank you, sir, your time is up. The frustrations into action allow them to rise above the voices of fear their oriental people doing Extraordinary People things regardless to the limitation of them places on the activists and organizations the if or the pro telling them is a bigger impact than you can imagine creating zoning and the housing regulation measures line by line they love the architecture and are not afraid of change and believe in creating a better Sustainable Future creating less segregation with a rarity of welcoming immigrants from over the world. Is there any additional Public Comment . Seeing none, move to item 7. Very good, commissioners. On to the regular calendar. Im sorry commissioner Vice President richards do you have a comment.
