SFGTV Port Commission 91316 September 16, 2016

Can initiate and refer to the Planning Commission for its recommendation recommendation. So selfwe get rid of the eastern neighborhoods plan we can go back to the prior and deputy City Attorney mirena burns. Through the president the state law mandates we have a general plan. Im sorry the subsection of the january plausibleness no state law we have to have a Community Plan that is a planning tool weve chosen to implement the general plan is citywide a broadly brush stroke like market octavia plan, eastern neighborhoods is a broader planning area and sub plans within the eastern neighborhoods like the central soma, western soma. Thank you so i guess my question ann marie and may predate you in the tenure in the Planning Department but it seems like the eastern neighborhoods is giving us a lot of coronation and makes it extremely hard to move the projects i see the for fathers and mothers that thousand it was a good idea as a tool to streamline the process; right . If you have a project that meets the guidelines we dont have to go through certain i even an eir; correct . Thats the ceqa side effect but not an effect of the plan. Okay. Okay. So what do you think if you can look at your crystal ball if we getting into the weeds of the eastern neighborhoods plan how much work it will cost hear me out what would San Francisco what would the San Francisco process begin to look like. We have a good crystal ball for that when the eastern neighborhoods eir was underway we look at the effects without the plan so the ceqa at that time, said the Goldman Sachs impacts for displacement foreperson loss of pdr would be much worse and the communities were engaged if an effort and throughout the plan they were uncomfortable with the prelims through the zoning code and the laws to adjust that. Thank you, Matthew Schneider i heard you had slides or something could you kind of briefly describe what is on your slides. Many of my slides Matthew Schneider had the numbers and have general slides of what the communities benefiwere lookingu could say a benefit with the impacts that came with that note existed before had we probation officer not had the eastern neighborhoods wouldnt have rays the millions of dollars that have leveraged other fees and made the projects on the front burn eerie have a map and happy to go over that but essentially going to provide. Thank you i dont think we need the map at this point but curious to know thank you for entertaining my questions and taking that walk down the infinity road supervisor peskin perhaps take that underway and talk about it offline but a perhaps have it San Francisco Historic Preservation commission about the eastern neighborhoods make its third reading. Throat president. Supervisor peskin. Thank you. I have other people that are on the roster. Thank you supervisor cowen the last time it took a decade. Thank you supervisor yee. I video a few questions the staff is correct in terms of what would be easier for to change some of the codes im looking at some legislation to make amendments to the house we look at the 40 percent of multi bedroom units and that will change things also but the question is for the any such effort. I agree the land is part of a entitlements that will prevail. Is thats correct from the City Attorneys. Deputy City Attorney mirena burns. I apologize i was conferring with any colleague and didnt hear the question restate it please. I have sp fear you have two developments of two buildings next door to each other possibly at marketrate and might be built before the Affordable Housing so what would someone moving into the marketrate building to appeal the Affordable Housing because they may find some excuse not having it built i guess she was saying it is part of the deal and it would not be any pail is that true. The appeal is before you now this is the same project the marketrate project and the land dedication of Affordable Housing at least this portion of the project is before you now three quarters that project for the Affordable Housing needs to go through a separate approval progress and approval process at this point well do the Environmental Review and need whatever the planning code it is true that the latter project will need to go through the imprisonments progress and the ceqa process at that point. Can that be appealed. Yes. Able to be appealed. You tell me it couldnt be appealed. Kate hartley i wasnt sure i defer to my colleagues. Im sorry it could definitely be appealed what cant be appealed the dedication that the curing the Mayors Office of housing will still own that lands the Rightful Owner what is potentially appeals whatever actual project that was proposed for that thing. Oh, okay. I dont know how to express that that is really a concern we have to look at it because that is both lesson and now the other comment the Housing Units the number im pushing from the other ended in terms of discussion of what it means to have single families one bedroom and studios are units and basically, when you have two families many of the people that are being pushed out of the mission are families i have a comment about that. Educating hartley Mayors Office of housing we are concerned been that i will say that what the trends we are seeing that families in so San Francisco seek the two bedrooms that the two bedrooms are very, very chief and tlooemz are not as desirable because of higher rent we want to build the housing that meets the needs of low income families and we will work with the communitybased developer to achieve that rate balance of units size. Thank you supervisor yee supervisor kim. Thank you a couple of questions on the Affordable Housing i know that you said that cant give us an accurate number of units that can be built on the lands that is dedicated can you give us a rough estimate of the maximum and minimum given the multiply affordable units. 1 hundred to 1 and 36 and does the Mayors Office of housing have any thoughts or thinking about what kinds of Affordable Housing and little income ranks will be built on this site and 2 will be the typical affordability that is 20 percent of the dedicated to say folks and the balances to households of 50 to 60 percent of medium area income in xhofrn conformance with the tax rules. By the way, they give you more flexibility in terms of funding autopsy thats true and you know within of the things im struggling with in terms of this we dont do a lot of land dedication i think that it was you know a worthy option that was explored in the eastern neighborhood process and one of the concerns in the developments that our office gets to work on length of production even if Affordable Housing to the marketrate so even if theyre not on site we link the certificate of occupancy of the marketrate to the affordable in this case were depending on the city to build the Affordable Housing not the developer so i guess im struggling with how were going to make sure that the timelines of those two projects will sync in line i know that supervisor yees question raiseer concerns about the appeals further down the road with the new residents and master residents coming in and appealing the new environmental approval permits even that go on the Affordable Housing project sites i know you tried to answer that previously with supervisor campos i curious what is the number of land dedication projects on the Mayors Office of housing roster i know i added one last month could you give me a complete list. We have action on brandon and shot well in the predevelopment we got 101 hyde sort of a different procedure coming to the Mayors Office this is the third project that came through section 419. The thirds because you dont consider 101 hyde a land designation project. Not coming through this legislative project. So 4 projects could you give me a better sense of the timeline for how those 4 projects work distinctive the work that the Mayors Office of Housing Needs to do with the flex proposals and the financing opposed. It is in predevelopment we are working Hard Community outreach going on with the architecture work is advanced 801 brandon a time constraint because of the marketrate developer had staging issues we were delayed and at the time, we didnt have the plumbing available we understand the project will be coming to us and he accelerated the reservation were happy to see that coming along and 101 hyde there were funding issues we were going to accelerate that a little bit so we are working on that and. When you say accelerated im happy to hear but in that case the developer committed at a pay for all dedicated costs. There was a 5 million contribution so thats great we when we first received it we thought we cognizant get gap funding up to 10 years thats much accelerated and sorry the gap funding was within 5 years. Uhhuh. And so again what do you anticipate the housing for the housing on this site. As i stated to campos we equipment to rules of evidence a proposal within 4 weeks for the lands dedication he typically we give the developers six to eight weeks to prepare they are proposals and it takes usually for this type of project about 4 weeks to go through the city process with the city and interview the candidates, etc. Than the selective developer takes 12 months to do design and that may or may not be a little bit longer depend on communities input the bedroom size will be important as we discussed the open space will be for those are issues to work out and then the permitting process takes about 12 months so thats the normal timeline for the Affordable Housing great just one more question i probably can do the math were looking at the project before us is 2000 plus marketrate units total is that correct . Could you repeat that. The at the moment number of marketrate units. Oh, one and 96 marketrate housing on the project plus. One and 96 matters of units will be sdpielt for this project if the project is approved and roughly one to one and 36 units of affordable units on this site if we took the lower amount what will the percentage be achieved. If you have a total count of three hundred then the affordable is 33 percent at hundred, however, the way it looked at the percentages the number of affordable units as a function of marketrate so thats 50 percent it will achieve having percent at the low ended. I appreciate that there is confusion in the Board Chamber how we calculate the units and onsite and offsite it is clearly late out in the Housing Ordinance thank you for that clarification thank you seeing no other names on the roster, we will get going and a presentation from the project sponsor or their representatives good evening supervisors supervisor president breed and im steve of marcille the Planning Department explained why the project complies to ceqa and i wont repeat that testimony but focus on the appeal first, the facts the project is code compliant and the incursion ordinance not taking up xhoingz from the board yet 22 percent a total of hundred plus master units we lost 6 units at the Planning Commission hearing theres no condos proposed in addition the project includes 19 thousand square feet of pdrs use in the Zoning District no replacement is required a terrific example how the Mayors Office of housing and Planning Department can maximize Affordable Housing and pdr space isnt mission a point of appellant and the supporters disagree the project has dedication of 19 thousand square feet of lands to moe view the to 46 percent of the marketrate one marketrate units and brts in a 6 Story Building and full ceqa cleaners for the one plus an dedicated lapds and dedicated to moe in a shovel ready condition missouri identified the Gap Financing to construction its building in the near future and 19 thousand square feet of ground floor and art space in discussions over the last week, we agreed to further revision adding 3 thousand square feet to the pdr space on the moe building that incumbents a arts facility and theyve committed to provide 5 thousand dollars in capital to build out the Community Space and agreed to provide 4 thousand square feet of pdr on the marketrate building as substantially reduce the grants for years the project this project is vastly different than 2014 the original plan further 2 and 74 units only pdr and no pdr art space for bmr. More than meets the building alternatives with the appellants prepared in 2017 going for dedication 36 percent to moe and the preservation of 10 thousand square feet after the Planning Commission approved the sites this appeal was filed a few words about the ceqa appeal the appeal it bans an assertion, however, the number of units completed in the eastern neighborhoods including the Mission District is well blow the projections, however, the ones under review the units are approved remain well below including this project in july on july 26th this board object the appeal on the Street Project you made that determination this appeal is almost identical and we urge you to look at this appeal several 100 percent approval just as this c pe dont on fulsome street and on Mission Street 96 unions on shot well street over one hundred on south van ness and plus affordable units on this site the board to determine the eastern neighborhoods ceqa sclaernsz for those affordable will be delayed we ask you not to take that action i expressed with the Planning Department if the pdrs needs to be revised we looked at the context should be in the context of the eastern neighborhood plan not on the c pe of yields projects the c pe included several technical studies with transportation, air quality, noise, Historic Resources and Hazardous Materials and it computed the mitigation measures but not note for review and resulting in a c pe because of the peculiar impacts of this project turning to the appeal the appeal is solely the decision to look at 3 vacant units to create for units one and 39 will be affordable finally it requires conditional approval regardless of a number of replacement units or the number of no others element requires a cu rather it was approval for the large project authorization an oil that had been heard by the board of appeals tomorrow 2 of the existing units were owned and the third was empty those are subject to rent control the 3 existing units are replaced by the marketrate projects plus the one plus on the dedicate lands the Planning Commission required the 3 units above and beyond that is satisfied with the land dedication planning code section sets forth the criteria the Planning Commission must conditioner they determined that meets 15 of the 18 criterias and on that basis project finds that the Public Interest is served by granting the cu we ask the board uphold that sensible position in its appeal the gentleman made no attempt to address the section 317 but want to accept the land dedication on this 70 to units what result in the dedicated lands and commissioner president james it doesnt justify the rentcontrolled units excuse me. However, based on the Concept Design determined the dedicated land can yield one one hundred and 36 units the new pvrment affordable units will meet the criteria for demolition of 3 existing units as testified missouri identity Gap Financing needed to construction the one and 36 units and the moe issued an rfp to choose a developer and should be under construction by plate 2017 or early 2018 as soon as the gentleman has cleared the site and gone through mitigation addressing supervisor yees issue the ceqa about before you covers the marketrate and the moe sites the c pe will be the ceqa clearance for the one and 3 a 6 affordable project and want to point out the earliest on the marketrate is 2019 another 3 years from now and kate described the permitted process for the moe building we completed long before that in 2017 but under the planning code with supervisor wiener he sponsoreder earlier this year year didnt require the projects to going come back to the Planning Commission but can be approved by the planning staff that will afford opportunity for no opposition and the gentleman said a 6 Story Building to be constructed on the dedicated land and claims that moe cant take advantage of the Density Bonus Program it provided up to 3 additional height for the developments and an 8 Story Building can be bu
