Last week only turk street it was less expensive and over here the money shot the income so what im hearing the rents on Group Housing are higher than market rate luxury housing theyre more affordable affordable means someone that makes hundred thousand dollars a year can pay for o more versus the rates are five or 6 a unit it was mentioned in the presentation where is comes together the yields it is generated by the market rate housing what the market will bear the whole notion were increasing the costs what the market bears that is bearing a lot more per foots on the smaller rather than the larger i wish i should someone from the market rate community here i wish mr. Coleman were here this is like any other housing costs are the same if youre making more you should be giving Something Back the 12 percent inclusionary clapping. excuse me. A thats not necessary and the 12 percent inclusionary is not onerous to be honest and no developer has told me im wrong, and, secondly, on the men, women, and children amendment i guess the question ive only been here 10 months the precedence without code attached the first time im seeing it is that normal. No. That has happened before. It happens if a supervisor tomatoes amend an ordinance they will supply a memo. Can i say the supervisor worked with supervisor avalos on including this in. Yes. Okay. Great a couple of comments one resonated the haste do we have a clean resolution clean up attachment clean up attachment i fully support work on the clean up legislation that supervisor christensen submitted in her letter i want to add what the gentleman said the clean up language and well be done with the clean up language thank you. Commissioner hillis. I agree that is Pretty Simple this saying that Group Housing people see projects theyre really market rate housing it is logical it the inclusionary applies im supportive of the legislation the one question some of the projects that were done prior to the cough weve seen like the central and the diamond on central weve seen before this is what i call Group Housing the old Group Housing before the marietta housing is that type of housing can still go forward. Yes. That housing is in the planning code it provides an exception of a hundred percent affordable and some of it is liv the diamond shelter is more Service Oriented and not income but people are there for a month or so i want to make sure those types of projects are not impediment and those are for the homeless shelter or count as subsidized housing that is exempt from the inclusionary. So i think this all make sense thank you. Commissioner johnson and thanks very much i agree with commissioner hillis this is weve talked about that for the past few months just a couple of quick things on i think that the theres one recommendation from the Planning Department didnt make a recommendation to ask us to continue to study the open space and requirements for group hows i have a suggestion im assuming you dont want to go through the staff study would it be possible to consider the common space part you know in exchange for that some of the exposure requirements because Group Housing is the types of housing that ends up on oddly shaped lots i would hate to get the Group Housing projects not being able to comply with the Group Housing requirements but agreeing with the recommendation that the Planning Department continue to study those elements of the exposure and common space requirements. The proposal includes that language that the exposure can be satisfied through all bedrooms complying with the exposure or a common space and granted the common space is not required weve assuming the projects will provide common space they have that option. Sorry so great fantastic so just a question then on supervisor christensen amendment what is the memo of options i dont feel there was enough analysis to support any recommendation he reserve the judgment on the merits of technical proposal im sure it is a level of clean up and sure some of it make sense there are elements that are not necessarily slam dunk universal i dont feel there is enough understanding where those clean up items came from and what their impacts will be so i compare the analysis of supervisor christensens amendments to what was proposed for the analysis that was given for the Group Housing clean up and it was day and night in terms of the the language that was provided thats it thats where in terms of today what is our many options i know that people in Public Comment saying reject supervisors can reject whatever they wish. You can make a recommendation it be included in supervisor avalos ordinance and also make a recommendation it not be included you can also say youd like any ordinance that has it in that to come back im not sure if the required to do that because youve already heard technically they can move forward but you can be on record you want it to move forward. I think can i add something sorry deputy City Attorney Susan Cleveland the planning code come great the Planning Commission as do the chapter so as aaron said you be approve or disapprove and either ask for an informational update when the amendment is drafted to further weigh in on it before the Land Use Commission hearing or if the full commission decided it didnt have enough information to consider it at all it needs to come back to you for another hearing. Okay. Ill say just for the Supervisors Office the legislative drafting is on my plate and not a very lengthy task i can have language to the commission for an informational update if it is something the Commission Wants to consider. Id like to see what other commissioners have to say im leon on asking for this not to be part of the supervisor avalos ordinances so i it seems like if we were to add the making a finding we want to get further information you know, i can see a circumstance we dont end up recommending the protective well be hearing informational i want to go through the same process we look at any other protective language i dont feel like i have enough information i object to come back but i dont understand some piece of the amendments to be able to say yes or no. Commissioner wu. Thanks so on the inclusionary Group Housing i think this is a great example how the process can work between the Planning Commission and the boards we saw a number of cases we saw a problem and asked the board to propose and its come back and now it is really positive the fact were seeing the smaller units in were defined as Group Housing theyre only lacking an oven and another small unit has to pay inclusionary it is unequal level the Playing Field and hundred percent Affordable Housing Affordable Housing is exempt also want to say to the staff i thought the report was very good through the independence of Group Housing thank you for that thoroughness to the question of the c3 amendments i agree with commissioner johnson i think we should ask is it follow its own tracks its not clear which 3 c maybe 3 g and f those are likes south of market and. 3 c g. Anyways that is the point we dont have the language we dont have language and understand what is being asked to vote on today, i suggest it take its own track and not include it in the commissioner avalos legislation. Commissioner moore. I wanted to thank staff laughter . Great i love it. Double coverage. I want to thank staff for the x quest presentation youve considered every aspect so im happy to support it in entire outlet ill agree with the commissioners that while the piece on the c3 s is interesting i think it is requires an independent track because this commission has been asked many times in the question of affordability to look at a broader inclusionary affordability addressing the type of people youre trying to capture in c3 it is a good piece to follow on its own tracks and probably decision as well i would agree with the rest of the commissioners included in this legislation models what were trying to do it explicit quite have the clarity of the discussion an outline all levels that the legislation addresses the issue weve been struggling only in another district than c3 i believe building it needs to stand on its own and on its own strength so i appreciate the supervisors kovrmd but i basically will not carry it forward under this particular discussion commissioner richards i move to approach items 1, 2, 3, 4 in recommendations and item 5 indicates we dont have enough information to make a judgment and ask it to come back. Ive decided to propose a minor amendment the Planning Commission state it didnt have sufficient information to approve or disapprove the amendment. Accepted. Thank you second. Commissioner antonini. Yeah. Does this legislation contain new exception for housing restricted to seniors . Group housing restricted to seniors are they exempt if it is Affordable Housing for seniors yes, but restricted Senior Housing is not exempt. So market rate Senior Housing it would not be exempt okay. All right. Thank you. I know what he need to know now. Commissioner johnson. Thank you very much the motion that was maids open wants table does it indicate that we are not adding recommending that supervisor christensens amendment not be added as part of the legislation at this time are you understanding . Commissioners, if theres nothing further theres a there is a motion and a second to adopt the resolution recommending items 1, 2, 3, 4 omitting item 5 the commission didnt have enough information important approval or disapproval. Commissioner antonini no commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner richards commissioner wu commissioner president fong no that motion passes 5 to two with commissioner antonini and commissioner president fong voting against commissioners, that places you under your on item 10 this is a planning code and Zoning District map to rezone a place of diego rivera even though street to and it will rezone dagget street to rightofway public space if i may have the slides so the notion of dagget street started during the eastern neighborhoods this is the open space on the eastern neighborhoods that identifies a need in the area where show place square meets mission bay showing in the circle the show pates e appetites square identified the opportunity site for open space thats site number 5 on that map in 2010 the project sponsor of the housing on the other side of dagget rightofway wanted to build the parish for the eastern neighborhoods fees that was supported by the eastern neighborhoods and this commission in kind agreement an updated in kind agreement will be coming to you next week so the park will be as you can see in the middle no street there today it is always been an unapproved street not built out the portion that will be rezoned is the area highlighted in yellow the remaining rightofway will remain a street or become a street a curb list street this piece of legislation is one part of a very, very large package to make that actuality the process of doing in kind agreement and this body the land is actually the western more and more most portion of mr. Brown we have to negotiate with the state to transfer the land grants from the state by the land parks grant money to buy the land and very large piece of legislation bs 10644 that hazard the pieces to make that necessary the transfer of the land, vacation of the land, creating a major encroachment with dpw accepting a gift from the developer for more than the in kind this is a small portion of the overall package that comes to the Planning Commission so what this does when with vacant a piece of rightofway automatically seeing the zone is a mixed use and our tension to make that a park and person city of you can still have the zoning that is meant to be a parklets make that zone public and zoned open space that concludes my presentation. Thank you. Thank you. Opening it up for Public Comment if theres any. Not seeing none Public Comment is closed. And commissioner antonini. Yeah. This is a beneficial proposal it is just follows up on what is proposed all along to have a park there i just was unclear about the showed that yellow zone was under consideration but the dagget park also exists is that what youre saying you didnt have that included it was part of the area to the north northwest and the rightofway is wide like hundred and 20 feet wide wider than selma it was never paved over and the area in yellow is the portion of the rightofway that would become the park and then a very small street serving up the buildings with retail there and the park would remain to connect between 16th street and 7 but the arrow is proposed to be the park.
