Kpix 5s brian webb is live where neighbors are remembering a life taken way too soon. Brian. Reporter and weve learned the victim Christine Svanemyr was a zen monk working as a life coach. She was enjoying the day with her daughter sitting on the lawn under a try on the last day of her life. Reporter at holly park a memorial of flowers grows by the hour as the mood moves from shock to sadness. Oh, my god, i was just there. Its terrible. Reporter 35yearold Christine Svanemyr was at the park with her 11monthold baby when she was run over and killed by a recs and park truck. Her baby was unharmed. Rudolfo knew her well. About 20 minutes ago, i found out it was a friend of mine and so im a little startled right now. Reporter a day later you can still see the tire tracks heading downhill to where the accident happened. And people who use this park a lot say that cutting through the grass is an alltoocommon practice. I have laid around here on the grass helping him to learn to walk and enjoying the park so it totally could have been me. Reporter the driver fled but was caught a few blocks away. Police identify him as 57year old thomas burnoski, the holly park gardener. A bashful neighbor with broken english tells me, burnoski recently lost a daughter in a car crash. How did she pass away . It was really upsetting to him you said, right . Everybody upset all neighbors. Reporter recs and parks Officials Say burnoski is on unpaid leave and San Francisco police have charged him with felony hitandrun but none of that will bring a mother back to her baby. Shes just very generous and she has given her life to service to being a mentor, a coach, and now a mother. Reporter employees are not supposed to drive over the grass for convenience. Burnoski has been an employee for 7 years. He is currently in custody on 315,000 bail. Live in San Francisco, brian webb, kpix 5. Kpix 5 just obtained some documents showing two citizen complaints about improper driving in holly park this year alone. A Spokesman Says those are the only such complaints in the last two years. The bay area is full of milliondollar views. Homeowners are often surprised to find out they have no rights to those views. Allen martin reports that some Property Owners have figured out how to protect their precious views. What price do you put on air . If its the air above your property, you already own the rights. I dont even think a lot of people even have a vague idea that they have air rights. Reporter San Francisco realtor john scott says whats more, if you like the open airspace over your neighbors property that allows you that panoramic view, you can own those air rights, too, if you are willing to pay which apparently is happening in the northwest. We were looking at a wall over there. I think it would really impact us tremendously. Reporter the petersons are two of those seattle Property Owners who bought their neighbors home for 600,000. Then they dropped the price and sold it for 500,000 just so they could legally keep the air rights to it and prevent any new owner from building up and blocking their view. Its doable. Its doable. If you know about it. But i think people are discovering it too late. The house is going up. The view is gone. The reason they say they are building up in seattle is because they got no more room to spread out. Well, San Francisco certainly is the same situation. Reporter here in San Francisco, the view and any expectation of one was an issue with one rincon south tower. Imagine if you paid 1. 5 million for a condo up there only to find out later theres a second tower going up next door and right in front of that spectacular view out your living room window. One rincon had to advise all its buyers when they bought it back in 2008, 2009, that their view would be restricted in the future when they built the second tower. Under california state law, theres no right to a view unless you have a private easement. Reporter the attorney specializes in land use and zoning issues. He says the primary reason we havent seen more property purchases by neighbors looking to preserve their air rights is economics. Real estate is so expensive in the bay area. But without purchasing those rights height limits can change, zoning can change. Without a view easement you have no legal right to absolutely stop someone from building on their property that could block your view. Reporter unless you can afford to buy whats right next door. In San Francisco, allen martin, kpix 5. Some bay area cities such as tiburon and sausalito have zoning laws protecting views in certain situations such as new developments.
