Directed my staff, find any place that there is access going on that shouldnt be in our watershed. I want to hear about it right now because we are stewards of that watershed. If we can find them, we will engage in a process. I think coming from the point of view that our job is to protect the watershed and provide reasonable access and i think we can do that. Thats why i brought up that connector trail that is probably the best solution in this case on a larger scale. And is there a sign on the gate that says that there will be a meeting to discuss the connector trail and receive input . Not yet. Well, it seems like that should happen right away. That seems like the minimum amount of effort that we can put in and i think theres additional steps to be able to respond to this question of people who for decades have been accessing these trails and theyve been doing it because there hasnt been a sign telling them not to, whether its our fault or not. You want to say a few words . Manager of the bureau of environmental management. Id like to clarify something. I think there are two ideas here and two thoughts that we have to consider. One is this project which is very important to the whole water enterprise as well as the wastewater enterprise. The mitigated negative declaration examined all of the potential impacts that this project could have and the impacts are in the declaration. We have the Environmental Review officer signed off on it. The mitigation measures are there for the butterflies and for all other possible you know, the wood rat and i forget what another one is but deb can provide it. Everything is covered in the mitigated negative declaration. Closing of the gate is a wider watershed matter. It is not part of this project. Yes, we need to protect the watershed. Yes, we provide access to the watershed. But all of that is a watershed matter that should be discussed within watershed planning, watershed management, and so on and so forth, but not within this important project. This had nothing to do with it. Its not covered. If you look and read which im sure you have the mitigated negative declaration, there is no mention of closing a gate. So its not part of this decision that is in front of you. I would just urge you, because of the importance of the project, to adopt the mitigation, the declaration and to also im getting very emotional because i feel very strongly about it irina, the issue i think we understand or at least we convey that the project initiated the assessment of the habitat. Correct. And we didnt realize that the habitat had been impacted. So watershed management made a decision to cut off access because it was having an impact. That is what the understanding is. So separate from the project. Did the project identify what the mitigations would be if the project moved forward, not how to manage the watershed. Commissioner moran. Commissioner moran i take your point and thats helpful. If the gate closure and that trail issue is, in fact, separate from the project, if those steps are not part of mitigation impacts, first of all, its appropriate and i would feel very comfortable proceeding with the project and taking our actions to do that. For the second issue, it is i think clearly the way we went about doing this was unfortunate. I am sympathetic to protecting the watershed. There are an awful lot of impacts that come with human contact. That said, i would hate for this to get tied up in a large and complicated project. I would think that the connector has a bunch of different issues like increased access through access through the cahill ridge trail. It goes along the ridge. That has some sensitivity to it. This would seem to be amenable to a more limited resolution, and i would just encourage, first of all, for staff to talk to the folks who have appeared here today and others and to be open to a solution that deals with really the completion of existing trails that already go up almost to the top of Montara Mountain. Those trails exist and the impacts have existed for a long time. And to be open to a fairly limited solution that gives access to Higher Ground and looking to the other side of the mountain. If that cant happen, then that cant happen. I think we should be open to that and not just say that this will have to be resolved as part of a much larger and more complicated project. I have a question for either the chair or general counsel. So if we took action on the neg dec and moved that forward, which sounds like it makes sense in general just to protect the watershed and to move the project forward, do we need like a secondary motion that just says that there will be work done to make sure that the public has a process to get access to what theyve traditionally had to get up there without dealing with the environment. I dont know if thats legally possible or if thats a movement because im with commissioner moran in that this is something that i think we as puc people are as stewards are should be moving on despite some of the impacts to the local residents. I too would like to decouple these issues, if possible, and really i dont know, i dont think we can take action on the second one because this action is specific to the radar installation Infrastructure Project and the watershed access piece seems like a separate issue that has then ended up because they are connected but separate issues. So i would say that if this project wouldnt if it wouldnt go forward, we still would block access because of what we found. So i think thats why we should sit down with the folks and talk about a solution. But again the project when they assess the situation and identify the impact to the habitat, the mitigation identified how you mitigate that project. So the project they identify how to do that, but the access to the trail is something that we need to work with separately. So youre also saying even if we didnt approve the radar project, access would still be blocked. Exactly. So they are two separate issues. When you said decouple the issues, im used to meetings where we have to make notice for any actions we take here. Im getting used to that. I agree, these are separate. However, i also think that the folks who are on the trail and using the trail are assets. Once we communicate to them and they understand, im sure they want to protect the watershed just as much as we do. They can come up and help us understanding this is what we have to do. We also want to do this. So we Work Together coming up with something, but theyre assets and theyre valuable and their input is valuable. Im glad that they came so they can help with their expertise and the years theyve done they may have other ideas about how to get to places. I think that could be very useful and helpful to us. So what i would do is i would direct steve to meet with the folks forthwith and report at the next meeting on what Position Solutions that we can make happen and some preliminary timelines of that. But again we talked to Research Agencies lg and identified the impact. I dont think we need to talk about that yet. I think its important for them to know what our bottom line is and how we can reach their bottom line and come up with something together because we have a responsibility and we cant at this point do much about that, but we can work other things out. There are more eyes on the trail to work things out. I think that could be important. If i might, with that understanding and commitment from staff, i would move the it item. Ill second. A motion to approve with that condition of a staff report no. Okay. Thats direction to staff as we would normally do. This is just approve the project has been presented to us. Through the chair if we could put Something Like that in the minutes that you are suggesting is possible, i would not be opposed to that. I think we would like to as a commission direct Steve Ritchie through the general manager to engage with the community that use this space and clearly have a deep connection to the Montara Mountain to figure out and understand what the access issues are and to try and really respond to what their concerns are as much as possible. I think we should do a lot more putting a sign up there as soon as possible saying these conversations are underway. I dont know if its external affairs thats going to take on looking at all the maps that are pointing people up there, if theres going to be a fence. I think its incumbent on us as an agency to be good stewards and say we are stewarding our watershed and we want to engage you in that process, while understanding that you would like access and have those conversations. If you can bring a summary of that back and begin those conversations in the next month and reach out to the community, i think this commission would really appreciate understanding that. I would put one qualifier on that. We have a broader community. So one of our big stakeholders is the california native plant society. Theyve been asking about the project as well because of things theyve been seeing. And were all seeing more and more on social media. Social media has taken a large role in this. We will meet with these groups, but it will be a broader conversation. That will be great. Thats good. So theres a motion and a second just for this specific project to approve the radar installation project, whatever its called. Is there any Public Comment on the motion . Weve already taken any other final commissioner comments . Hearing none, all in favour . Aye. Opposed. Motion carried. Ill report at the next Commission Meeting about the meeting. Okay. Great. Thank you. Next item. Clerk item 10 approve the revised water supply assessment for the proposed potrero power station project. Revised water supply assessment. Is there a motion . Would you like to hear an update on this . Yeah, i do. You want to hear an update, okay. Again, Steve Ritchie assistant general manager for water. This is a water supply assessment for a proposed project similar to the other water supply assessments. The commission has recently approved. This one actually was part of the first bunch that we had talked about in the meeting and at the following meetings. For reasons this project had been reworked so the project had some modifications that needed to be built in. So this is simply another water supply assessment that is virtually the same as the last ten water supply assessments the commission saw in the last two or three meetings. So the analysis thats included the same as the others. The explanation of the recommendation, thats all the same . Yes. As we had agreed to before . Yes. Okay. President caen comments . Any Public Comment on this item . Is there a motion to approve . Moved. Second . All in favour . Aye. Opposed . Motion carries. Thank you very much. Well now move into closed session and donna will read the closed session items prior to any Public Comment before we go into closed session. Clerk item 13.

Versus city of county of San Francisco. 18 is Pacific Gas Electric orthopedic surgeoning. Item 19 is city and county of frisk versus Pacific Gas Electric company. No. 20 is the city and county of San Francisco versus pacific okay. We are now back in open session. Item items 13 through 17 were settled and there was recommendations to settle those and move those forward to the board. Is there a motion on whether to disclose the discussions that we had during closed session. Move not to disclose. Second. All in favour . Opposed . Any other new business, commissioners . I would like to have a discussion of policy on how we go forth with talking to the public about issues that we do. I mean, if its consistent with our Community Benefits package or whatever, but we need to have a policy on how we go forward with the public, especially in lieu of what happened today. If theres not a policy, then we need to go through one. Could we on our september agenda have a what our current policies are, what we do. All of us were taken aback with what happened with the mount mountain. Just to make sure we can avoid these situations in the future. Im sure they will happen. Any other new business .

Supervisor yee im going to call on the author. Supervisor mandleman thank you. Thank you for your engagement with my office over the weekend. I think several of us will be offering amendments to this legislation today. I have a couple. They are shown on this document that has been handed out by the clerk. My changes relate to two things. One is grandfathering in applications that were submitted prior to january 15, 2019, when we submitted this legislation. And then the other is to exempt out the Bernal Heights special use district, at the request of the district nine office. Requesting amendments from section 261. 1 controls, which apply to additional height limits for narrow streets and alleys. Those are the two things that i wanted to amend. I know there are others. Supervisor yee is our second for that . Seconded by supervisor ronen. Hopefully we will all accept these amendments. Supervisor peskin . Supervisor peskin i would like to reinsert, and this was actually in the legislation and then was taken out of the legislation which means it will not have to be re referred or require any more Public Comment. Which is to add residential mix use districts of which i know there are a lot. The city commonly known as district three, as well as other districts. I think it is a good change to section 26, 261. 1, applying standards to secondstory setbacks along alleyways and narrow streets. I would ask that page 16, lines 416 section b, subsection 2, subsection b, that any frontage reinsert rm and make that same corresponding change. Also on page 16, subsection c, the controls in this section shall apply, et cetera. That would be my motion which i have discussed with the maker and is acceptable to him. Supervisor yee okay. Thank you. I just wanted to thank supervisor mandleman making an exception for Bernal Heights. It is one of the neighborhoods with the highest concentration of narrow streets. For that reason had a special sed. I want to thank you for taking that into consideration and thank you for agreeing to do that. Supervisor yee i want to thank supervisor mandleman for this legislation. While i support the general intent of this legislation, i would like to offer a friendly amendment. We have heard from some of my Community Members that there is a concern over elimination of 311 notifications of residential roof height increases to assisting stories. While many of these changes may not be significant, impacts could vary from project to project. For instance these height changes or roof adjustments could impact light exposure. In these instances neighbor should be made aware so they can work with the project sponsor to solve their concerns or get therefore i am proposing to retain guidelines for 311 notifications as they are currently in place. The amendments would be to strikethrough lines 912 on page one. Lines 23 and 24 on page 13 and lines 2223 on page 17. Colleagues, i hope you will be supportive of this minor amendment to keep 311 vacations consistent. Okay . So, there has been im sorry. Could you reiterate the last change . Supervisor yee the amendments, it is a strikethrough lines 912 on page one. And then line 2324 on page 13. And lines 22 and 23 on page 17. Thank you. Supervisor yee there has been three individuals making motions. Supervisor ronan would you like to be second on all three . Thank you. Colleagues . Two of the amendments conflict with another, one of the amendments adds the provision with regards to specified alterations and the other strikes that language. Am i missing something . The First Amendment included a subsection six. Not subject to 311 notice, and then the third amendment strikes that language for you to something . Deputy City Attorney john gartner. The double underline section number six in the long title. Was added as an amendment in committee. That is reflected in the document supervisor amanda meant supervisor thank you for that. Supervisor yee there has been amendments proposed and made motions for an seconded, all three seconded by supervisor ronen. Can we take these amendments without objection .

Clerk and ordinance to amend the Building Code to waive specified fees from 100 Affordable Housing projects and certain accessory dwelling units , projects for an approximate one Year Pilot Program and to affirm the sql determination. Supervisor yee supervisor mar. Thank you. Finding a balance between incentivizing adus and ensuring larger real estate investors, and landlords are not granted public subsidies they do not need. Eighty years are very appropriate strategy to add density to the district and other website neighborhoods. The fee waiver aims to incentivize adu production where it has been underdeveloped and singlefamily homes, small apartments. We should support every day members in our community to stay in their homes, provide or create rental units for members of our community. Along with the fee waiver on 100 Affordable Housing, this additional financial incentive will help immensely. In the sunset district we held an adu adu workshop this last weekend which drew over 150 residents. Through the workshop, and surveys, my office has been collecting from homeowners. I have received overwhelming inputs and requests for more flexibility, more options and greater support from the city. I did want to finally mention that im currently working on an adu Incentive Program to expand on the waiver and create Additional Support for homeowners to add adus, including Technical Assistance and other types of financial incentives. Ill have more to announce on that this fall. Thank you. Thank you. I also want to thank the mayor, and my colleague, supervisor mar for helping, and working altogether to have this one year pilot come forward for a fee waivers for a hundred affordable adus. They would apply to building inspection, plan reviews, records, retention, surcharge fees, fees on 1 Affordable Housing can range up to 100000150,000 per project. We are confident this aspect of the legislation will positively impact 100 Affordable Housing project. While the amounts say per project, is much smaller for adus, amounting to a few percent and have a total of a total project, roughly around 3200 on average for most of the small adus. Our hope is that this just stands, bringing Public Awareness to build adus and bring more Property Owners interested in building adus to do that this year, rather than waiting. I am really excited, supervisor mar, that you had your adu workshop and people came out, 150 people, that is amazing. That is really exciting that people actually want to do this in their homes. We know that we have heard multi generational. Seniors love these adus because they are groundfloor. It creates an Affordable Housing unit. I have more adus in my district. Whats amazing, and i do appreciate you adding this small Property Owners, to with these fee waivers. They are so much more less expensive. We look at rents in the city, for one bedrooms almost 3,700 per month. Not many people can afford that. The adus are an average of 2,500 for one bedroom. Even though that sounds really expensive, it is a lot cheaper when you are out there looking for a one bedroom apartment. I wanted to say thank you for helping guide this through. We need more choices for housing and people. I think this is really going to push forward our housing stock. So thank you. Supervisor yee can we take this item, same house same call . Without objection, the ordinance has passed on First Reading unanimously. Madame clerk, lets go to our 2 30 p. M. Agenda item. Clerk i have introducing an accommodation, supervisor stefani. Sorry about that, i lost my glasses. Speaking of 50 years. Today i am thrilled to honor perrys restaurant, a beloved San Francisco institution and its owner, perry butler for half a century of operation on union street. At just 26 years old, perry open the doors to his restaurant on august 20, 1969 at 5 00 p. M. At that time, a hamburger cost 1. 60. Since 1969, they have sold over 1 million burgers and the restaurant has grown into a family affair. Perry met his wife joe at the restaurant, and the two since 1978. Perry and joe have raised five children who helped to manage a business. They are now proud grandparents as well. Perry has also served as a setting for the 1972 film, butterflies are free as well as the workplace main character brian in his 1978 novel, tales of the city. The list of regulars at perrys is too long to read in full but includes joe montana, shawn estes, senator dianne feinstein, speaker nancy pelosi, former mayor willie brown. It has also been a friend and partner of the San Francisco giants serving food and drinks at the candlestick club from 19862014. For decades, the iconic white and blue checkered tablecloths, and Sports Memorabilia have created a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Perrys original promotional flyer called the restaurant to place you could sit and watch the world go by. Fifty years later, that is still true. Thank you perry, and to the entire Butler Family for giving the gift of perrys two union street and all of San Francisco. I am so excited to enjoy your next 50 years, as well. [applause] thank you so much, supervisors supervisor stefani. It is indeed an honor to stand up here. If you would have told me what i was 26 years old, 50 years later i would be here with this wonderful family and you wonderful people i would have not believed a word of it. It has been a marvelous journey. The one question i get most often from people is how heavy lasted for 50 years. The answer is very simple, theres been a tremendous number of wonderful people who have come to perrys going back to day one, going to the present time who do the heavy lifting every day whether it is the host at the front door, the waiter at your table, the bartender the cook in the kitchen who has the most unglamorous job of all but they do it well. All of these people, i wish i had up a list of everybody who has worked for us for 50 years. There is a lot of memories but its not written down anywhere. They are the ones that have made it happen. I get the credit but it is the people that do the everyday work. I have this marvelous family that you very nicely acknowledge. My wife joe, my five children, i would not be [ crying ] sorry. Its not an easy business. Its not an easy town to be in this business. But we made it this far. Thanks to the kids who have taken on the responsibility, theyre going to take it a lot further.

Supervisor yee can we take this item the same house same call this resolution is abducted unanimously. Clerk united item 48. An ordinance to streamline Small Business permitting by amending the Health Planning and police codes to a firm to seek a determination to make the appropriate findings. Supervisor yee supervisor brown. Thank you. Im happy this legislation is before us finally. I spoke about the many conversations ive had with merchants about the time and expense city regulations create for them and about how this legislation is aimed at removing aspects of our city code that are unnecessary, duplicative, overly burdensome and many times it just plain confusing.

Including competition from online retail, rising rents, labor costs, and in this environment there is more reasons than ever to ensure our regulations are truly necessary and serving the public interest. Otherwise they can be the straw that breaks our Small Businesses through needless time and expense. All too often, overly burdensome city regulations can stop a business before it ever even signed storefront and any of our districts or make it harder or impossible for struggling Small Business to adapt to changing times.

Fixes that are unanimously supported our planning commission, Small Business commission and the San Francisco chamber of commerce, the San Francisco council of district merchants. These changes include supporting live music venues by eliminating duplicate we have inspections and regulations. Making it easy for retailers to bring reasonable limited Live Entertainment to enrich customer experiences. Allowing for more open air dining, creating opportunities for more to go food service and reforming this planning code to limit the impact of one neighborhood restriction on another neighborhood business. The amendment legislation that is before you today is a little bit stronger. Among other small cleanup amendments, we are narrowing the proposed exemptiono
