We have approximately seven hundred square foot lot has one building at the rear the lot its preempting vacant. Within the rh 3 one may have up to 3 lot area for the subject property up to 7 unit are permissible on the property within the Telegraph Hill use district parking is limited that is permitted by right in the rh 3 district 3 Parking Spaces is required. The department has received into comments in onramp and opposition as of this morning 43 people have approved f this and 40 neighbors have opposition. Many made reference to a concern id like to provide the department with the key opposition. Won several letters stated this will eliminate Affordable Housing on the site this is not accurate it currently contains one unit consisting of one building and no existing housing or planned housing would be eliminated its work out notd as mentioned in the staff report there was previously 5 unsound structures on this site approximately 17 years ago. Two several letters said it will have an adverse effect and the department looked at this at coit tower and it will not have a spitting impact. The views from downtown seen from the sidewalk are to the protected public views under the plan and 3 several letters say 24 is is a survivalist issue the proposed garage will access to one entrance nevertheless, the sponsor say thats okay to latter the pedestrians leaving the garage with a mirror to help the existing drivers and at letters say the letters have out of scale. The building has been articulated into 3 singlefamily homes in addition the eastern portion of the structure that is the tall it is lower in height than the adjacent neighbor the set back are recreation and Parks Department the typography of the site the design is high quality and comparable with the mixed area. 5 several people talked about construction theyre not typically Planning Issues the sponsor has agreed to management conditions all challenging sites they will determine the best management approach to the project. Lastly it is bring to your attention that the cottage was authorized to expand never received a final inspectors the work is not technically legal they will seek a new variance the project sponsor has decided to remove the condition authorized so the project can move forward without further delay in order to memorize this we suggest to have this the exterior cottage shall not extend the variance case 93 plus the modifications the existing cottage shall be commented during the occupancy for the preliminary 3 youre not building with that said, the department has found the project to be necessary and desirable and comparable with the surrounding neighborhood and it will create 3 new sfachlts and the 3 new unions are an appropriate density approximately 83 sprays and it and access through a minimal driveway the anticipated vehicular trips has no reasonable possibility of impacting the pedestrians or Transit Services or traffic in the district based on those findings the department recommended you approve it that concludes my presentation. And im available for questions thank you project sponsor. Good afternoon commissioner president wu and director ram and members of the commission aim jim with juliette and rose weve been representing the project sponsor and helping him. I said to the provide a little bit the background before turning it over to lewis for decades this lot contained 9 residential units in 1995 your predecessor Committee Approved those as liz described the unit were demolished and the build in opposition perhaps scared he away developers nothing has happened in the last 17 years. On the Positive Side we have positive support from folks on Telegraph Hill. Ill show you a map youll see a 5 hundred foot radius the green we figured we should try okay. Is it better 53 we will keep it to approximate of the zone the red is letters ever expressions of opposition yes, a there maybe other opposition and people will creek critique this map but the constructive part in the first time of doing construction in Telegraph Hill we have support we felt there was a silent majority and we finally have it. In the last twentyfour hours couple of other things i want to deal with there was decision about evictions and one section everything of everyone else left i want to read you won i feel this is a privilege this is from bill i feel its a privilege to write somebody about the landowner they found no increases in rent nothing of anything of the kind that makes me feel insecure they asked me for a moment tracey said mr. Bailey please know when the construction is over with youll be the first to walk through the doors and say ive come home she going on to say how she showed up for the turkey dinner after one year i have a number of those letters im not going to hand them out. The last piece is within the last twentyfour hours ive heard there was a 2 and a half Million Dollars offer to tracey and her partners who own the property in the owner theres ban a sign on the property its been for sale i dont want so is the property is for sale im concerned that someone will Say Something offered to buy it is not going to be sold in the opposition its a red herring. Lewis good morning members of the Planning Commission im from butter letter architects i want to present the project starting with an image was what was there before. So thats a shot of the earn side of the site before the demolition curd you can see two of the 5 structures one remains in the south east corner also theres a curve cut it was removed during some work after the demolition but the curb excited at the site this is a site plan of the site. To see the proposed 3 units we refer to unit one at the lower left and 3 on the right then the the upper left in the dog lay of the site is the existing cottage that will be restored as noted earlier in the presentation. This is the Telegraph Hill boulevard level floor plan of the 3 in front unit i show this first is the curb cut is at the lower not quite all the way left going into the garage the garage door is set back from the doorway and the single car pulls into the elevator its not in the staff planning report this is an effort not to have the car sites that descends into the lower car space that allows the cars to enter and exist the space forwards and not background its a better way to address this one is Going Forward can be aware of the pedestrians and other traffic. One more thing i want to note on this plan sorry about that that in the process of design this design process has been going on for two years with quite a bit of input. Youll notice not only the door is set back and the door on unit it is set back weve continued to set back the doors and landscape the areas in front of the of them to be more capable with the existing steps. This is the plan one level below the Telegraph Hill boulevard level. Or showing specifically the entrance to unit 3 is set back with the that planning and existing from the Natural Steps ill talk about that later. The next plan ill show you is the lowest plan i know that looks like something that the graft open the lefthand side but enters from the elevator the car its a renovating space would depend on who is is the cargo into the separate dwrargz and be able to turn all the way around into the elevator to exit and youll see in the righthand side the lowest unit unit 3 doesnt have a garage in the bottom. Im not going to you have many other plans in our pact im not going to talk about the upper for the interest of time but go to the front elevation this is the northern part of the proposed project youll note the garage door our the left theres a 3 foot space on the unit 3 and the other space were stepping those down the hill to the right to the west. Is reconciling what is a fairly established wall of stucco building to see the west you see at the left of the screen were starting to break that wall as we go east and attempting to space the buildings so they look like freestanding buildings and im talking about breaking up the sidewalk earlier and a green roof to really blend the buildings with the landscape at the top of the hill. This is the rear elevation that is designed around the interest of view the parking level is fairly invisible actually at the bottom of the package this was a subsequential wall at the lowest part of the building we used a ramp and improved that situation allowed the Living Spaces to enjoy the gardens. In the a per accepting from Telegraph Hill boulevard ill use this last image and the two on the he is always and the material board is on the material board youll see the light stucco and natural wood and metals and dark window frames or in the glassed the reason for the light and dark combination we want it it to pick up the stucco and we want the dark in fill of the materials to pick up on the dark landscaping bop on the park and walk a way thank you open for Public Comment as i call your name, please line up on the screen side of the room so we dont block the room calling names . Good afternoon, commissioners i had a couple of points of order can i not have that cut into my time. You have 3 minutes. Those are points of order that takes less than 3 point of order we wanted to ask for a continuance of this matter based on the materials in our packet their inconsistent and procedural deficiencycy the first inconsistent between the conditional use authorization that describes 3 offstreet parking but, however, it is before you. I apologize those items should be part of Public Comment i thought you meant procedural to this hearing you should include them in your 3 minutes. Am i starting thats number one and two the renovation of the cottage are not part of the materials that should call for a continuance and the last new condition we talked about with the cottage thats not been expanded lawfully the project sponsor said they will return it to its original and those are 3 items since were tennessee with the hearing ill continue. The property were talking about at issue is the late undeveloped lot on Telegraph Hill. It holds special significant for many, many members marry my name is betty im the president of the Telegraph Hill people weve come up with an acceptable option rather than blocking the public views unfortunately, we are in the not able to reach an accord were going to ask the commission to ask jim running ruben one of the best attorneys in the city to come back to the table were willing to orchestra think the scaling, however, we evaporate had a chance to do that i think there was 5 units and 11 people never interrupted that very we willing to have development as long as it is not blocking the view youll see from the speakers the actual garlics that shows the problems. A key point this is located at a turn at it 23 foot road just imagine that when our thinking about the traffic and parking in this project. Were asking for a continuances not being grand for the Dispensaries Team to come back and talk about this we have people that are interested in this project thats the wrap for today thank you. Next speaker. I have some handouts here perhaps. Commissioner president wu and commissioners, i want to say good afternoon to you and thank you very much for lept eliciting me speak im sampling my wife and i live on Telegraph Hill for 16 years i was a Planning Commissioner in merry ran community i gathered insight of the complexity of your role to balance the properties right and today, our here in part to consider whether you agree with your staff this property is exempt from Environmental Review we all know this sites is an sensitive one on a narrowly point to coit tower but theyve proposed a few things there are quote from staff the first quote. The vacancy of the property is a detriment to the neighborhood unquote then quote the vacant lot is visual inconsistent with the surrounding private property and quotas an area that attracts a large nothing number of visitors the site is American People improvement to the neighborhood unquote so before you make a decision i wanted to show you a few pictures i apologize for the age it is your quality of them. This is the view in Telegraph Hill boulevard looking at up Telegraph Hill boulevard the approach to coit tower a pioneer park its a beautiful vandal. 1972 what that looks like with the that building are this is the view towards pioneer park you see did Memorial Steps theyre beginning on the right behind the stop sign you see off from the left of the upper portion of the steps. This is what it would look like with the building. This is the view of pioneer park and the view across the street at pioneer park this is what it looks like with the building there. So this is the site where thousands of visitors and residents drive cars and take buses thank you yourself time is up. The they recalled question is this sensitive site exempt from Environmental Review ill hope you agree it needs for review. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello commissioners. Im judy eiring im a documentary filmmaker i live on the east side of Telegraph Hill i walk over the filbert steps to the west side of Telegraph Hill on stockton street for the past 13 years ive been walking past this very construction project proposed construction project im here to tell you this it top of filbert steps on the west side is a huge staging area for tourists and local alike but mostly for tourist theyre struggling up the steps on their way to coit tower theyre out of breath and distracted theyre looking around and trying to get their bystanders and half the time im telling them what to find the parrots theyre not looking traffic this staging area is the exact piece of sidewalks this project would cut across with the driveway. Now it didnt take a rocket scientists to understand this is not safe. This is the city asking for liability. I would ask that you relook at the spot due a Pedestrian Survey do an Environmental Review report its an Environmental Review on thousands and thousands even if people that use the filbert steps every year. I dont understand why the project got a categorical exemption from Environmental Review impact study a study is needed. Although my experience is anecdotal i have 13 years of experience watching those people just this morning i walked over the hill there was 80 people standing there looking around and pointing out and looking at the fantastic view over the vacant lot towards downtown looking the other way and trying to fwouth i figure out tout how to get over to coit tower this is where the bus stops people get off and the exact spot where people across the road to walk up the beautiful new steps to coit tower. In the not a safe place to have the project while people come up ill call more names calling names
