>> good afternoon or good evening, commissioners. this is a very modest application, between castro and market. simply allowing the new restaurant owner to sell food that is not prepackaged, food that may be made of side or on site. opposite this is proposed as a small self-service restaurant. there is no table service. this is to encourage the members of the gym to have food available to them. and the reason that the restaurant owner is not here, is because they cannot commit until the conditional use is approved for them to make food there. >> thank you. >> other any additional public comments on this item? if not, the public, is closed. >> so moved. >> seconded. >> i would like to clarify. [no audio] >> there is an owner with a letter of intent. we're not making this public but they cannot sign the lease until they know that they can be located there. they would just be there selling prepackaged foods and coffee. >> commissioner?

if not, public comment has been closed. >> i was wanting to ask some questions, about what project that this would apply to? >> i am going into the full explanation. >> can you give me the examples, with the leasing of space? >> this would apply to when the city was going to purchase this space in excess of more than 25,000 square feet. >> i am just trying to think. >> when the planning department moved their offices, -- we have a stable lease. this is when they are looking to relocate with the new offices. >> i do not have anything against this legislation, but it seems that we have a much larger issue related to child care and not that many opportunities with the city is leasing the new space. and it seems like -- >> we do currently have the child care -- and we have the hotel developments to add more than 50,000 square feet. they will have to pay into this for the child care. the feasibility study that is required to be submitted, opera that we're looking at right here. we are looking into how much this would cost to provide child care to the employees. we will look at the architectural space, for all the information about the existing deficit of child care, and if there is need for this agency. if the board is approving the funding. this was not in the original legislation. this will give you a control, and the board can say that this is a reasonable amount of money for you to provide and we would like for you to add this into your budget. all you can say that the burden is too high, and we will approve the budget without the child care. but it will bring this into the dialogue and it will make certain that this happens. >> this is trying to create parity with what we expect. >> the planning code applies to everybody, except the federal government and the redevelopment agency. this may also apply. this is a very low impact fee. >> that would have the impact the and the feasibility as well. but there is nothing to take into account, moving forward within the impact? >> you can decide to actually provide child care so if they did this do not have to pay the impact fee. >> thank you. >> commissioner? >> i think in terms i am -- in principle, i am in support of this ordinance. my concern is that we very recently had a very large develop -- rebel the project being developed under the development agreement, with treasure island and hunter's point. and the more remote location of these projects, including the hotel and the office space of significant size, my question is whether these projects would fall under this provision, based on what you are saying, that the redevelopment project -- that this would be concerned that we are leaving a very large hole in these areas. >> we do not have jurisdiction in these areas. we do not have the ability to place specific controls on these or the federal government, as much as we may want for them to participate we do not have the jurisdiction. >> but those projects have child care as part of the plan? >> this is part of the development. i know that the federal government building is a joint venture between the government and private development with a very large child care facility. and the federal government is quite aware of what it takes. >> commissioner sugaya? commissioner sugaya: can you tell me what this means? >> this is part of the concerns that were raised in the other agencies, because this was not defined. this is with the feasibility studies and we were wondering if the study would run between 5- $20,000. there is a small amount of city funding. this is one reason we recommended the modification. >> it says that after the study, with the provision of job care not being given to the working group legislation being modified, if this is not required, then why are you doing this?
