From different angles from technical means i believe all questions ive heard and wrote them down were valid questions and in some form the commission will be given the role in the dialogue as asked questions this plan can do more than the eastern neighborhood plan shows in the waenlsz . The time to do it right and get into a level of detail it addresses the sublets and may have overlooked things in 10 or 15 years not thought about and the Planning Department will live with the waems and the omissions in the plan we know very well the eastern neighborhoods plan for example, created an amount of resiliency and detail in the plan not matched in any form or shape in the eastern neighborhoods in the neighborhood was a broad policy here we have the opportunities to avoid some of the pitfalls we ultimate now encountering with the eastern neighborhood plan does not give us all the tools with that said i am interested to see how we as a Commission Work between foe and december to have more detailed presentations on part of plan and be more engaged also hearing how you deal with some of the questions we may ask you and come to a point we dont spend years and years rehashing and restructuring we work forward ask the question at the right time and try to formulate an answer back and forth i remember in the eastern neighborhoods plan we spent unites and weeks and nights and weeks going through the hearings and i hope weve learned a little bit to be more efficient how we use all our time thank you and i look forward to the next plan. Commissioner hillis. Appreciate the discussion and the presentation and all the work gone into this as it continued with the engagement just a couple of points one i share sxhifksz kickoff interest in the balance why this much office potential versus housing and looking at that holistically im sure you get information on what is in the potential pipeline and transbay and the giants parting and candle stick point why were picking the balance between the potential new office and housing and the issue of the lot size and mergers of lots and how we are controlling or not controlling part of interesting thing about soma the exit in lot size and the now town terrace no diversity in lot size it is easier to plan there than here and obviously some of the large lots are ripe for new development and density but how are we protecting or encouraging that aggregation of lots how we are doing that that is part of if you want to talk about it now or certainly here about it as the plan developments one of the interesting things about soma in this area the diversity in lot size and it adds to the kind of making the pedestrian realm more pedestrian scale i know youre doing a lot in the plan so try to fix and then the final point of pdr certainly areas in south of market where we historically have historical i mean historically had affordable rates in pdr space and arts space and will that replacement pdr b be as affordable probably not unless ways to control that things like cast and other organizations prapz as part of Public Benefits created to be able to keep that those rates you know where they are are got this in Affordable Housing are bmrs we dont have it in commercial spaces how can we preserve affordable pdr and art space so thank you. Thank you director rahaim. Thats correct just first want to say special thanks to steve that is a labor of love and maybe not all love over the last 3 years a major milestone to get to this point i want to give a special thanks to steve just a couple of thoughts i appreciate all the comments both from the public and commissioners that is a good time to see what we need Going Forward a couple of thoughts based on comments from the commissioners the balance issue is one weve been looking at carefully and the reason this plan has a job emphasis is because all of the other recent plans except for transbay have been housing the rincon hill and the Redevelopment Area most of eastern neighborhoods and market octavia they have almost no emphasis on jobs the balance was tipping too far and we need to capacity thats why remember that is four blocks wide we tend to think of solving our problems within the planned area not the way to look at it but citywide or at least in walking distance and occ and all the housing south of market the balance is better off, if you will, if we have more emphasis on jobs in that part of town the other thing we have a tendency to write those detailed guidelines and still do every project and negotiate every project so to commissioner Johnson Point i hope well strike a better balance in the Code Enforcement ive not drafted so you know we will be bringing proposals to what projects the commissioner will look at but as the eastern neighborhoods the projects Small Projects should be approved administratively like other parts of the city its the balance we would like to hear from you as we write the code for this and think about the specification of how we review and the commission reviews projects and so on and finally if there are ways for us to be more nimble to respond to the future needs very good to hear them the challenge, of course, changing of protective requires time and ceqa i wish we could be more nimble but there are ways to do that were not thinking of id like to hear how we can do that i appreciate all the comments thank you. Thank you. Commissioner moore. Director rahaim i very much appreciate what you said that raise the bar in terms of how we are constructed to come to something that is implementable but not continually be champed and comments and actions we often have and other comment it would be great for you if you wouldnt minded mr. Wartime you i can talk to you. It would be that would be helpful if you sometimes in an informal presentation will look at how we looked over your shoulder to all the adjoining district and Planning Efforts and kind of understanding by transbay and Everything Else you if few wouldnt mind well see that that would be helpful to the public to see this is a comprehensive effort. Commissioner Vice President richards. A couple of additional points i like with director rahaim said about getting the balance right we need to see and improved administratively but the parking question i had two weeks ago 10 percent of the Parking Spaces and roughly 10 im assuming a that Small Projects are roughly 10 but see when that looks like we dont have a lot of time unless we add time to the weeks if there are pitfalls i think we might be too low on the bar we need more administratively approved two more things one speaker talked about the 823 paragraph 8 with the recreation facilities i dont know but if we can get a comment or look at that yes, please. I believe thats it referencing the western soma special use district district that requires the replacement of any recreational facilities within the area i believe. Okay. We saw from the flower mart compromise we dont often have Tennis Courts on the roof but still have tennis equal rights maybe we can understand see what the impact will be should be considered and ms. Imperial spoke about the filipino culture district and signs this is a great thing to preserve. Commissioner perez. Yeah. One final thing on this district that would be helpful as the zoning goes forward and, establish definite areas with pdr is only allowed and other areas pdr might be loud and yet not site by site as were doing with the eastern neighborhoods the rules are there if an area, no pdr is allowed we shouldnt be discussing that you know the same thing like there is a relocation and within the sites or perhaps in sites in other parts of the city they dont necessarily have to be all in central soma i think as much definition as we can get to this question not problems but at least it will help and hopefully pass things that become large project authorizations and remain as a such rather than having them change as city use as the project we have to refight the battle on each project it is a cu not a lp a the plan originally called for those are ways to avoid the problems once the plan is finished. Ongoing commissioners, if nothing further that concludes this item and thank you to the staff and public the break.
