Herman terminal on pier 27 part of that combination was the theatreal satisfaction of the preconditions theyll negotiate a lease for the seawall 24 one of the conditions is coming up with a project design it is impartial with the location of that site that is the northeast waterfront historic conservation district the site of this subject matter is across from pier 9 with 4 lots seawall 3, 24 and 23 and 3 stopped between those two passages the need to for budget design that is comparable with the site location theoretical is a project that requires the entire sites of seawall lots and adjacent lots and last year in may the Port Commission directed the staff to come brother the board to seek a waiver from the competitive boyd process we went through the committee and the board provided the waiver in may of last year to allow the port to enter into an n n a the resolution that is adapted last year was that the port work with the port and developer work with the community conducted extensive outreach for community button input to make sure the design a k345sh8 with the development and one of the reasons for gratifying granting that waiver was the uniqueness of the theory california being an icon and 98 of the admin code to retain the icon in the city as indicated a a hotel that we include one and to 2 Homicide Hotel as space for the theatre for Public Open Space total Development Cost for this project is currently at one and of 24 million of which the 4 million will be provided in quantity and the balance in equity no port funding for this development very quickly the highlights of the term sheet were proposing a 50year term initial term with an option for a 15 year term the reason for 34 year to attract buyer equity and allow for the amortization of the development with an lda a Lease Development disposition agreement that covers the period of construction and they will be paying the port 50,000 a year during that period and they will have 36 months to complete those requirements on that lda the rent structure calls for a base rent a percentage rent participation rent the base rent is a minimum base rent theyll unpaid pay the port regardless of how it is constructed ill go into a little bit more details the percentage rent will allow the city and port to participation in the upside and special rents for the finance of the project for the city and port to get a portion of those proceeds during the entitlement process before we turn the proprietary no cost to the port because it will be paying the transaction costs the pier occurs involving the time and the e n a as part of this that is in the term sheet at benchmarking to move forward and one of those exclude that he fulfill the construction on time and the port is not paying the rents but will complete the construction on time to need to make liquid dictated the lease will be coming back to you for approval before it comes to you as i indicated just to show the number as part of direction that the board of supervisors gave us we need to get an appraiser and hire a consultant to make sure the port is getting a valid lease indicated on that slide the current represent or the proeblgd rent the port will be receiving is not lease or not developed and used for packing the bottom of the charged is indicating the rent during construction which is during construction the rent will be 80 or 90,000 and during the operation the needle is 9 hundred and 15 thousand the percentage rent is way higher in the package on this item to wrap up im going to quickly highlight the project benefits within this is a wonderful opportunity to develop this site which will be architecturally fitting to the district a Public Open Space that is privately financed as well as the Construction Costs and the maintenance of that park appropriated during the term of the lease it is currently one and 50 jobs will be provided up to three hundred and parttime jobs and that revenue it beneficial to the park the estimate is 7. 8 million that will be generated for the city for the one time impact fees and an afternoon of 9 million every year of the project as a minimum and of course the project will be meeting many communities ufos and benefits and, of course, with the theory design in the city this is just a shot of their of one the events back on pier 27 that concludes that presentation we do recommend that you provide a positive recommendation to the for the full board to endorse this term sheet thank you.

Thank you, madam chair and to the members of the public that testified today. I think the gentleman point his finger on it years ago the previous proposal was remarkable controversial i was one of the people that believed we could have a project that worked at this site and it is delightful two years later weve come up with a solution it is with myly supported by the neighborhood, by local 2 and by the Building Trades i want to speak to the financial terms i believe that the port of San Francisco and its staff negotiated a complete financial passage in terms of what are before us obviously well see have a final agreement that will trail 24 and we will obviously look at being with a fine toothed comp this person an item that deserves our support and should send to the full board with a positive recommendation thank you. Any other remarks all right. Well see is there a motion . Thats a a motion. Thats a motion with a positive recommendation . Yes. Indeed. A motion with a positive recommendation to move forward without objection the motion passes thank you. clapping. all right. Can we go back to item neuron ordering the summary strait as part of pylon approving the troofrm to the rec and park adopting the appropriate understanding. Thank you very much i want to recognize cassandra. Thank you thank you good afternoon, supervisors chair cohen with the rec and Park Department i wanted to give give you a little bit of background on this item the protective before you will vacant approximately 200 and 6 square feet of pylon park which is under the rec and park is a clean legislation this is maintained by the rec and park and stwrartd as part of pioneer park many transfers this to the rec and park the purpose of street vacation to allow for the installation of a small reechlt kiosk the area is subject of many public hearings and was supportedcy the rec and park additional it has been discussed numerous times at the coit tower working group. Flovbt the place to be vacated this is a community chosen location it is visible to the visitors of coit tower. The proposed kiosk will be 9 by 12 feet e feet and over reeshlts this concludes my brief presentation. In the absence of our chair first of all, i want to acknowledge the work that rec and park has done over many years not unlike the last item that was off at the a rocky start but now a place into twitter are coit tower that has treated that it dpw era murals appropriately in the back of the passage of prop b and i think that mr. Grim and his staff are doing a remarkable job and acknowledge that rec and park has worked with the surrounding community to find a better sites weve read in 2, 3, 4 mornings examiner not without controversy that remains having said that, i think that fundamentally in order to achieve the number of different goals were trying to achieve one of the preaccepts is this kiosk is fundamentally temporary and removable should this that experiment not work and banned in the future and rec and park or the termination of lease in the future and to that end i wanted to offer some language and i want to thank deputy City Attorney lee for crafting it ive given to any fell Committee Members that provides a mechanism for the rightofway, if you will, to revoter to the department of public works through the i am position of an easement should in the future that kiosk be abandon or fall into disuse or terminate their Lease Agreement so i would subject to Public Comment madam chair and supervisor wiener like to add that amendment and with rec and park staff ms. Casco and with that, im to hear in the public. Great before we do that supervisor wiener has a few comments. Thank you very much im glad to see that accounting just a quick thing what the the rational for converting this land back to dwp and other imagery paper streets. By the way, as my neighbor knows the Telegraph Hill is actually full of a number of unimproved rightofways along filbert and greenwich and the notation is really to underscore the temporary nature and the suspenders god forbid rec and park abandon this provides another means by which the public works has the ability to remove the kiosk in the future should it fall into disrepair or use. I dont have a problem with the amendment im curious i have an example in dolores park where 19th street goes through that ive been i dont know if it is of a street weve been trying to get it vacated it seems to me it should be city policy when we have paper streets make sense to vacate the streets and transfer the property formally to rec and park if supervisor peskin wants to proceed im fine but 23 this is the general approach. Not to sound legalistic but the fee title will transfer from dpw to rec and park and under our chapter will remain are rec and park but dpw will reserve an amendment. Thank you very much lets go ahead and go to Public Comment. Folks anyone interested in commenting on item number one thank you. Well. Pardon my hat when i told my dermatologist she would you were loving people im a member of pioneer park project i was contributing a significant amount of money to the park and glad the name is coming back into Public Awareness we do appreciate the improvements that is come from the coit tower and were encouraging this to be approved mostly in the name of helping coit tower and the procession to continue their business i agree that the concession stand the refreshments stand is temporary i dont see with any problem with the removal and thank the gentleman for the long term that stewardship and many of the other neighbors in the area as well as their support for the restoration of the murals and the refurbishment of that iconic city landmark. Anyone else that want to speak all right. Public comment is closed. Supervisor peskin another motion.

Johnson. Good afternoon, supervisors again Jennifer Deputy city administrators as you may know the city has been a participant since 2010 it was created 50 years ago for the purpose of reducing the reflex posed by floods dhout the United States but having Flood Insurance for Property Owners and businesses and participating jurisdictions in exchange of flood plan management as part of n f i p has a flood map for participating jurisdictions which show the special flood hazard areas fema is currently publishing a firm for San Francisco that includes the appeals process were in the admitted of that appeals process now the preliminary firm has zones that includes the airport and mission bay and bayview Hunters Point and the candle stick point and Treasure Island once a preliminary firm final list this the city has the special flood areas to implement the provisions of the city flood plan in the administrative code as the administrative code the city mists has all appeals on behalf of the city and county of San Francisco our appeal deadline a august 1st to that end weve range for foumd to present a finalization and the impacts of the impacts present on behalf of fema is curtis from fema and others we have representatives from the airport and the port should you have any questions. Fantastic thank you to welcome the fema representatives the floor is yours. Im edward an engineer from the fuchld office here from oakland our study let me get our slides on the there we go. As mentioned were providing new information and in the form of it Flood Insurance rate maps innovation with the Flood Program ill be briefly spanking about the mapping process it is part of an overall coastal mapping underway but for the Oakland Pacific cost and all 9 counties separates projects providing flood hazard information to the bay and, of course, for San Francisco the two projects come together we issued a combined set of Flood Insurance rate map paeblz for the entire open coast of San Francisco city and county including Treasure Island and the airport as well as those panels are issued as preliminary panels november 12th of 2015 we started a 90 day Public Appeal period ended on august 1st, the standard period for all fema promotions that result in a regulatory Flood Insurance rate maps during the 90 day appeal period staff from the community, from and from the general Public Comment can submit comments and appeals to fema an appeal a technical challenges to the elevation of the flood that will be expected during a one hundred year flood once that closes well review and resolve any comments and make changes to the preliminary 3457z before their final we determine what is effective for the Flood Insurance map and based on the current schedule anticipate that by november of this year we would complete that process of resolving the comments and appeals and issue a letter of financial determination to the city and county of San Francisco indicating 6 months the maps will be final and effective if you stick to that schedule that results if effective maps may of 2017 that schedule could slip depending upon the time of the appeals we receive ill stop and my colleague eddy will provide Additional Information if you have any questions, well be happy to answer them. Thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors my name is eddy and i represent the flood plan managed branch in oakland and id like to address in the next few minutes is how the new maps modesty impact 9 constituents and the city and county of San Francisco i think that is important to know that those are preliminary maps at that stage the information that well present is more Information Purposes only and it ranges the full gamete of possibilities so keep in mind with that said id like to address two topics the first is how the new maps my impact the development and the new construction the regulations for the national Flood Insurance program with respect to building and development are embedded in the code of federal regulations 44 cf r and 63 want 3 and the California Building code their regulatory those new maps will have some impact on new development and improvements done to those believes that are impacted and that impact can range from minimal for those buildings that are in low risk areas like what we call flood zone x a low to moderate range of flooding all the way to prohibition on new construction in areas where there is the highest risk of flooding like the 3 e zones for locations where new construction is proposed for buildings entirely over water so the impact can range from minimal to relatively severe with respect to Flood Insurance and the financial impacts the maps are important because any buildings that has a federally backed loan in a flood zone a or v the special flood highrisk areas are required under the Flood Disaster flood act of 1973 and the national Flood Insurance act of 1994 to have Flood Insurance so any of those buildings that will be proposed to be in a any type of a or b having a federally backed loans can have a mandatory flood it is optional in the low to moderate zones and available at a lower cost the range or the cost of Flood Insurance really various substantial depend on the level of risk so in 0 minimal risk areas where there is a low to moderate risk of zoning for commercial buildings and maximum coverage the Flood Insurance what range around 3,500 and that can circulate to 24,000 a year for those buildings in the most hazardous flood zones like the e e and for residential Property Owners that range can go from low to 425 to a high of lets say 5,700 the Flood Insurance a based on the individual characters of each and every building we encourage the folks to talk to their Insurance Agents about the cost codify Flood Insurance for theyre specific building and fema encourages autumn Property Owners regardless of their flood zone to talk with their agent about flooding 25 percent of the claims are out of the low to moderate flood zones and certainly x zones in the city of San Francisco where we would have situations that possibly the local stormwater and sewage system is over taken by the flooding events and if this event that flooding events meets the conditions of Flood Insurance those Property Owners will be deflected those opportunities available for Property Owners and the regulations and the Flood Insurance are really tint for preservation of life and property and to vote to limit Economic Impacts of flooding events that might occur within local communities as of april 30th 2016 two one hundred and 6 of flood shiners policies within the city and county of San Francisco a thank you commissioner peskin your name on the list no thank you for your Important Information it is predicament to go to Public Comment at this time anyone wishes to comment this is item 7. Landlord tenant seeing none, Public Comment is closed. So colleagues thank you for hearing this item i make a motion to continue this through the chair. Can you call items 8 and 9. Items 8 and 9 resolutions urging the legislative for the housing approvals for the trail bill in recognition of San Francisco housing crisis existing obstacles and planning and electricians to the regional statewide housing. So those items we are sent to committee from the full board just a minute supervisor peskin and supervisor wiener will have im sure a few remarks i see commissioner stephensons name and like to recognize him. Thank you, madam chair as we are all aware in the budget process before the california states protective the governor has trailing legislation that would profoundly impact San Francisco and other municipalities that currently have local planning laws that actually build much more on sight Affordable Housing than as provided for in the governors by right legislation we attempted to take a position irregularly our stat logic delegation to either amend 9 governors trail bill proposal or if unsuccessful oppose it and the large project i originally introduced has evolved no longer looking for performance based exceptions for the city and county of San Francisco but more like mayor ed lee wrote to the governor on june 13th were suggesting a number of very specific proposals i in an attempt to compromises or bring together the two different resolution one support by myself supervisor mar supervisor yee and supervisor avalos and supervisor campos together with item 9 sponsored by supervisor wiener have disdonated to both of bring those two items together specifically like the governors bill to be amended with the support of our San Francisco protective delegation he particularly wanted to acknowledge senator leno that met wards to this matter but specifically like a prohibition on the demolition of existing hours a minimum bottom line for as of right approval for the inclusionary housing standards and a premium increase as determined by the Technical Analysis for the promotions begins construction between 12 months of their approval use it or lose it rather than a speech active entitlement and that major developments for local consideration approval as 3r0i9dz by local laws and with that, i will relinquish the floor. Thank you, supervisor wiener. Thank you, madam chair claernd those two items together i look forward to the discussion today so i think when the governor first introduced the tailor bill to try to expedite the creation of housing in california regardless of where one is on the specifics of the bill i think we all agree the bill needs to be amend around the demolition issues so it didnt make it easier to demolish housing like the Design Review and so forth c but i think awhile some people immediately opposed the bill my reaction and the reaction of a lot of people was lets talk since it is opposing lets talk about how we can make that bill better and acknowledge were in a deep, deep housing crisis not just in San Francisco not just in the bayview but various parts of california this housing crisis is streamlining the fabric of our state and in terms of who protecting, middleincome or workingclass families are going to be able to continue to live here to not just those of us who are lucky enough to have housing and to be able to stay in the hours that is critically important but to make sure that the next generations is going to be able to come here and raise families here to make sure those of us who live here already if we have to move are actually going to be able to move it is a crisis of deep, deep deep significance to the future of this state and whatever you view in the governors bill i think that i personally and a lot of us commend did governor for at least putting forward an idea to say the current states of affairs is not doing well in california with housing and that frankly are not doing good enough in San Francisco on housing as evidence by the rents of 3,500 a month so after the bill was introduced supervisor peskin introduced his resolution and while i appreciate any efforts to raise those issues at the board of supervisors to have a discussion i have serious concerns with the resolution the initial resolution that supervisor peskin offend would put us in records an option to the tailor bill and in my view didnt acknowledge where we are in terms of our housing crisis how we got here we need to do things definitely with housing thats the bottom line with me to do things definitely with housing the way for the last probably 50 years is not good enough and caused the problems we have today had you look at where we are in the bay area several million more people than 1980 and 200 thousand important than 1980 an comploitd population and when you have that kind of an exploding population youll have an unbelievable expensive housing costs i have introduced an alternative resolution one that acknowledges the housing crisis that states the needs for more housing that includes subtracted bloefrt but knows that is not enough and emptied belowmarketrate housing is by itself not going to solve the crisis as critical as it is and seller certainly not solve the crisis for the marching by the resolution states the need to improve the process and also states the need to focus the governors bill to narrow it to the focus of the heart of problem which is that when we have in various parts of california a zoning that allows for a certain number one number of units and density and height there are times when a process will force that number or that size down so have a parcel it is zoned put 50 units on it and due to the local pressure end up with 18 units Something Like that thats the heart of problem that rezoning but the reality of the process is that you ended up with far too fewer units that impacts negatively both marketrate housing and subsidized Affordable Housing did resolution on the alternative to insure we have changes to the tailor bill not making easier the demolition of housing were take into account the environmental and labor needs were allowing for good Design Reviews is where we have welldesigned buildings and that we dont have some of the really parolee designed buildings weve another times seen and making sure we have good streetscaping improvements and all the things we know go into good Transit Oriented Development i thank supervisor peskin for coming up with amendments and very much appreciate the merging or compromising the two resolutions, however, the amendments ive seen i dont think do that the legislation the amendments offend by supervisor peskin continue not to say anything about the need for more housing or the impede to new housing in San Francisco those resolutions still puts us on record in opposition the resolution does as supervisor peskin mentioned specifically states that the current approval process still remains intact and says at the bottom of page 2 quote the improvements continue to allow for public review and local consideration as it is provided by local law nrmdz didnt change anything the amendments that supervisor peskin is distributed they dont say anything about what i think is the heart of resolution i authored that is requiring compliance with locally adapted zoning in terms of the number of units and the height and putting a stop to the arbitrary reduction so i appreciate it but dont get to the heart of matter in my view not a true compromise i have specific questions about the amendments i dont know if chair cohen you want me to hold off but again, thank you to everyone.

Next speaker. Good afternoon, supervisors testing d 4 action the govern has good intentions but there was no Community Process he jumped into action that was without checking in with the rest of the state weve spent many years in deliberate efforts to guide future growth and to get more Affordable Housing in San Francisco Community Plans like chinatown, van ness, eastern neighborhoods, have all been dont think Community Review and input what needs to go on in the rest of the state not necessarily hike here we dont want to compromise support for existing hours support for our Small Businesses, retention of pdr jobs and so many other things we have to remember that the uc berkley report shows well not be able to get the rents down developers are interested in profit not building for the lowest common denominator we need to get our representatives in sacramento and their allies to amend or to oppose the trailing legislation most parts of california can benefit but not San Francisco wench got a good process and a lot of housing not built and not being built because of lack of entitlements those are 14 to 20 thousand unions units that are entitled not the Community Process is holding up housing it Something Else thank you. Good afternoon with charm im here to support supervisor peskin measure for exempting San Francisco and i agree with supervisor wiener it is we have housing crisis but i also want to bring up not only the housing crisis but displacement crisis and jurisdiction crisis and our communities 2, 3, 4 in San Francisco that are standing to lose if theyre not have Community Input and just another bone to the developers whatever they want without oversight or Environmental Impact and any input if the communities as an example i want to brought to your attention supervisor wiener that it was only maybe a year ago or maybe over a year ago thanks to your leadership the Corona Heights was not having a moratorium on super sized homes because want Community Input and Community Opposition that you took the leadership and brought that advantage that benefits to that community so it is very important for to the community to have their input and have a dialogue with developers dialogue with the city and the Planning Department also i want to brought to your attention it was only a few months ago we a brouhaha with the dpw and people in San Francisco haves spoken as a result, the Planning Department since that legislation the property legislation the whole bunch of amendments that are going for your vote that are going to make that a completely Different Things we started off with those are examples that demonstrate the city of San Francisco is not the kind of place that fast tracking will work people will be opposing it and want to urge you to listen to your constituents and pass supervisor peskin legislation to the city of San Francisco will be exempt thank you. Good afternoon im sorry anastasia from district 8 were here once to consider the facts that one obtaining National Supervisor has denied all the supervisors an up and down vote regarding supervisor peskin proposed resolution to declare our city exempt from governor jerry brown by right legislation through consideration this by right tailor bill that didnt make it to become law and the attachment to the june 20152016 is seriously flawed and not the answer to what we need in San Francisco housing policy it denies the residents the right to participate in shaping housing policy or have any input on community proposed by developers the convinces of the fast tracking without in sight and lacking Community Process involving all stakeholders will alternate the city of San Francisco our historical heritage and would be disastrous please vote on supervisor peskins xhpgs xpgs exception. Hello boards my name is a 0 ross im a Community Activist with ace and also a Community Person that lives in the bayview im here because you know, i have a piece of paper that i can read off of i want to turn that over i want to speak from eye heart and sit down are supervisor peskin and his colleagues have a good issue will what needs to be done and supervisor wiener has an issue too what needs to be done we need to come together and speed up think outside the box and talking about what we can do jointly to make those things happen for our communities because it is; right were at a point that housing is mrimd limited for protecting and middleincome and more housing for those that can afford 35 hundreds a month for a studio and beyond lets sit down and workout we need to step outside of box and what had we need to do for firefighters and teachers we need to impact our community and the only way to do that sit down and Work Together per we have to come up with legislation to resolve those from outside the Governors Office we need to have done here in San Francisco were our own leaders wiener knows and supervisor peskin knows the other board of supervisors know what we need to have done we need to sit down and Work Together to oversee and implement and make things happen because the only way to get things done is working together were all know that protecting and middleincome and workers in San Francisco are having a hard time to live here the only way to Work Together i mean, we cant have those separate bills coming were doing this and that ross. Thank you thank you. All right. Next speaker. Thank you. Hold on turn the my case. Hi, im a bayview resident and a residents youve seen my face ive asked the question by rights for who this takes away this takes one way or the other away the community face we hold the Developers Accountable we see the inclusionary rights and the developers are more likely to provide affordable units based on the financial feasibility of their project but not based on the real needs of affordable units is it so really already shown that developers provide more Affordable Housing they will only when forced this bill didnt give that opportunity unfortunately, were in a site for our residents to remain in the city and we cant afford weve not printed what has been created and basically what has been created is the pay to play ment outlet if you cant it makes me sad as a san franciscan youve not seen me ive given up and disgusted and frustrated with the democratic process country unfortunately, the people are at the top of being more prioritized then the people at the bottom i believe in my heart if something didnt happen definitely with our government represents for them to start representing the people versus the privileged class of people that are the minority in this country theres going to be a demonstration of resistance im just being honest i pray every night for peace but the only im ready to unfortunately, there are people that are good afternoon, supervisors tim colen, San Francisco Housing Action coalition. First want to express i guess my amazement that people are spending in 70 santa monica that hey we dont need the by right were doing such a darn good job in San Francisco that contradicts every position as well as i recall in the stayed rational for prop c the trusting and prop k and the Affordable Housing and Mission Moratorium prop a the bond and the most recent prop c it is certainly not what is discussed in the Mission District we have a problem with Affordable Housing the idea of exempting ourselves with changes not responsive to what were facing i know that is important to recall what governor jerry brown has said number one localities the cities in california you dont get it not adding the crisis the city and number 2 not possible under any raechlgs of realistic economic somewhere we can subsidies our problem without disastrously flowering the how many amount of housing in that sense supervisor wiener has it right. I would hope that we could somehow reach consensus we will somehow keep all the local controls and achieve a different result isnt that a request for the status quo lets defend the status quo the governors is proposing Something Different i think he is the right of it we had better start producing much more housing if we expect to have an impact on affordability the protective Analysis Office a Bipartisan Group and the reports tare putting out should be read at every level of government i think we support the by right proposal as amendment and a lot of very good amendments by serious housing and anti poverty groups that makes a lot of sense and easy to support but requires a dramatic turn thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors jim Lazarus Chamber of commerce as ive said before this problem in San Francisco is back decades we down zoned our neighborhood and make it difficult to build within the zoning let alone we cant pass out felt board legislation to allow a slight as as trade off for more forecast and point to our neighbors rightfully around the bayview and the state theyre part of problem when the Affordable Housing on an Old Industrial sites next to go 101 the neighbors 4 problems and dont see the appropriate paths to create Affordable Housing throughout the 9 bay area counties every permit effecting housing is subject to an appeal which is not the case i building in any others city and county in the state of california were not part of solution we have to change maybe we have the guts to look at our Zoning District are lose and look at it what is appealable or not how do we fast track in every neighborhood in San Francisco the governors proposal is a small step to deal with it on a statewide basis appreciate supervisor peskin amendment and hopefully between now and the Board Meeting supervisor wiener and supervisor peskin can come together on one piece of legislation that contains the immediate amendments to work in every city and county in the city and county of San Francisco.

Thank you next speaker. Good afternoon. Im the policy manager forever the Mission Development agency we are proudly now the housing vendors and getting seven hundred and 50 affordable units in the pipeline over the last 15 years one and 50 or so we urge the stronger support of supervisor cohens to oppose or amendment it weve seen displacement and lost one third since the latinos and the displacement is rampant not only for the population but the businesses thats were asking for basically to be able to maintain the public review of any projects for example, a project the monster in the mission the hugest in the history of San Francisco and that note to have any type of public review at 15 and the bart station is a serious serious problem for our neighborhood not only our the supervisors but how to produce its and transform the Advocacy Agency said if you build Affordable Housing in the Transit Centers youll twice as likely for the use of Public Transportation and also luxury housing theyll emit requester emissions and good ridership this proposal proposes to do allows Affordable Housing 10 percent near transit as opposed to outside of Transit Centers we also want to make sure weve developed over 15 hundred lecturer units more than that 46 of the 101 bay area cities in the Housing Element and we could use more review of that during that time you know weve seen the displacement of population and without public review further continue to have savior income inequality we urge you to support this legislation thank you. Next speaker, please. Supervisors michael of San Francisco Building Trades council that will be loflg if the developers can be counted on to do everything economically feasible for the communities in which they build unfortunately, that is not how the system works as long as it works in a different way the planning the entitlement process is bad and im not a fan of being up to 2 in the morning retaining the function and the california trades council has counted out in opposition to the governors always of right legislation and asked to join weve done see the statement you had distributed by sister ford earlier is one that was approved yesterday we would hope that the governors legislation could be amended to appoint it is useful and acceptable we are not going to count on that as long as we cant were in opposition thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, supervisors peter cohen, San Francisco council of Community Housing organizations. I actually pleased to follow mike from the Building Trades weve not agreed in recent months, but this one we do it is broad opposition to the governors right bill it was pulled from the state budget two weeks ago not only the Building Trades by the cal federation and teachers and Hotel Workers and the local council on the environmental does the Natural Sources and the Planning League and the sierra club are opposed to this bill and statewide 60 organizations from los angeles to the bay area all signed on a letter housing grownups and others sent to the dpofrn two weeks ago expressing the concern of this particularly in gentrifying communities it is loud and clear there are serious flaws the other interesting thing that boards amazing in april of thorough passed a resolution oppose an identical bill by an unknown Assembly Plan to all of you but gotten the governor the tune is changing is it so the same thing so it basically says it overrides local consideration over Land Use Decision makers we ought to be concerned and a lot of amendments substantive and good things in the mayors and supervisor wiener the la county and lots of cool ideas where you start from we support this and therefore having number league of women around the edges we oppose this this is rally california and negative exclamations we ask you to support it thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors Katherine Howard district 4 resident i guess you can say aim angle open space and parks person i sport supervisor wiener we need the public input that makes the process better if you eliminate eirs and others discretionary reviews it takes away our how about wind impacts without consideration of this and turn the surrounding area into a wind tounld tunnel shadows boxing is an impact of the community and what about the space are not residents of New Buildings ive seen plans that make a mockery of open space with the interior courtyard not a space people want to spend time in the public process gives the project for a community at large but for the new residents about the projects please support supervisor peskins resolution thank you. Calvin san franciscans for Community Planning speaking in support of supervisor cowen supervisor peskin it is sponsor for us to keep fundamental facts before us San Francisco produces more than 100 percent of its bay area Regional Housing needs from marketrate housing weve done see over 80 years we produce about thirty percent of our Regional Housing needs more Affordable Housing we have a housing crisis in San Francisco that is about Affordable Housing not the approval process we have over thirty thousand projects in the pipeline now there are 10 thousand almost near being issued are under construction in San Francisco not one major project has ever been denied by the planning process in San Francisco tens of thousands have been empowered and built dont quite understand who the problem say we have figured out negative impact San Francisco that in order to build housing we need matching transit and community that have neighborhoods serving retail and housing to be afford by the people that work here, a massive investment in transit all of 3 escapes governor jerry brown in his buy right proposal governor jerry brown buildings more in the tooth fairy and the easter bunny than the hard heat process of Community Building housing and Sustainable Community support supervisor peskins measure thank you. Hi laura clark grow sf we certainly dont deny things in San Francisco but marked did art of delay we add years to projects and we all know this is a problem weve been chronologically underbuilding in the bay area for more than thirty years and people that point you to believe that is somehow unrelated to the fact that rent is high those are two very related facts and i see no, he was that we have the political will to create the housing necessary in to address this on a local level and beyond that i see no evidence we have the political will to force the nearby endurances that operates in our main source of people that are working and living and need that community to come and we have the problem in San Francisco where we have this south bay issue and marin a no to bart and housing if we ask for a cut out San Francisco well have cut outs for every city if the bay area and never address this crisis i think you all know that is true additionally i think that if we prevented a big source of funding for avenue is not the tax and fees on marketrate we are going to continue to dig ourselves deeper and deeper into this hole thank you from the San Francisco Tenants Union the supervisors amaze support a resolution to support this i urge you to follow that and support the resolution that commissioner peskin where wrote the tenants groups are concerned about little tailor billions it reforms all that power and gives to developers i understand youre concerned about the obstacles but it is critical that we dont allow the crisis to be a cover for wholesale deregulation it is true that regulations are obstacles they create obstacles for big businesses trying to create money and the only way to protect the public good ideas like the Housing Stock and regulations are bad ill see that but who makes the regulations work for us ill agree it should be you and me and this city and not governor jerry brown in sacramento and what that bill will do if we dont amend it the way that supervisor peskin is talking about well give up that local control for towards the state and towards those big business interests they dont have the interest of san franciscans in mind and not trying to build Affordable Housing but we agreed we need 25 percent ill argue we need more and theyre under cutting the efforts thank you. I will not repeat what she said are calvin im loving my community about having the checks in what kind of building and what is done and is the developer following through an what we promised we as a communities have that role with planning in insuring the development is that done is done to meet our needs and given that reality and know our history knowing there are those speculators that will try to find any and every loopt to build what they want about profit only is not about those bricks of the frame it is we who makes them homes but the small corner store that is the news giver who tells us who is born and died theyve got keys for those who or forgot full and, have their groceries delivered late at night if youre a senior those make up the communities and thats us not the governor telling us how and what we should and cant checks and balances and who is lou gehrig to pay what having overheard a conversation on the phone in the local bakery it was one landowner with 5 buildings hes being trying to evict people saying listen shes on this paying 19 hundred i can get another thousand so i was able to get her out of there and hell if those technically i didnt will pay ill collect 2 thousand a month ballets be realistic about what this market is not inif i believe this crisis exists thank you good afternoon. I urge to support supervisor peskin the notion a onesizefitsall law should reemit Public Participation in 57 diverse couldnt with 39 people and the 8 largest economy is a direct transfer of those rights to a few powerful Interest Rate groups and the Tech Industry the state protective should amend or reject this legislation and our local City Government of government and should amend or oppose weve adapted the policies with a higher minimums than the state measure will be a monumental step baurtdz that will be an local government to reillys greed item 6 concerning the developments on portland is an excellent example why the mandate planning procedures results in projects that are wildly appreciated instead of projects with broad recreation this will bypass and ignore the protection of Historical Resources to bypass and ignore this restrictions are prohibitions an Small Businesses and artists and to dispense they will improve the projects please move supervisor peskin to the full board with recommendation thank you. Hi, im terry with the Building Program and together without allies im here to give support for supervisor peskin resolution there is a notion that streamlining will make them less expensive to build and it will lead to lower costs to build housing that notion is absorb it is the high represent that people are willing to pay if theres enough hi ended market those folks will charge what folks are ready to pay like tech workers there is a bill that falsifies the tefsh if so about big tech corporations and Venture Capital last week benioff salesfroce said his tech workers are looking for housing those are at the back of people of color and soma half of the major advertisements are build there on the backs of the working Class Community that by right will eliminate all the issues by concerns of traffic impact and population change if we want to talk about population growth lets talk about population change through is growth over the course there will be displaceed. Good afternoon. Im with the council of Community Housing organizations i want to say i agree with you age on the need to do Something Different not enough to put forth an idea because it is a new idea when it results in nothing what does the by right bill it cuts the public process and two according to the laments it cuts the developers costs busy devil percent without any additional affordability it increases the developers profits by 12 percent and 3 no guarantee with the housing will ever get built a solution that based on deregulation not on the real need of building Affordable Housing so what iss it we want in signing on to this Community Labor alliance opposing the bill what sideing with the resolution provided by supervisor peskin we want if you believe that what you want is increasing marketrate housing prozac production youll be asking for an amendment you have to. The cu or lose it actually build a unit if you want to taj mahal and two if you buildings this puts forth Affordable Housing youll have for on amendment that puts a value mechanism that additional profit give to the vendors by the by right is actually results in Affordable Housing and if you believe that public process of the kind we have in San Francisco is not impediment us from building up a backlog of 19 thousand approved units that is 18 thousand units went through the Planning Commission and the kinds of things theyre waiting to be built then you will keep the public process especially for large projects we urge you to support supervisor peskin resolution to oppose the buy right bill thank you. Good afternoon, board of supervisors im here to urge you to forward the supervisor cohens resolution to the full board my reason a frankly the governors bill raises questions the first one buy right for whom and second bow right and third what cost the first question the analysis by the displacement project using the same theology Affordable Housing is more effect and in fact, in some situations like most of eastern neighborhoods is far more effective and yet despite of that were facing a situation in which well be required to have marketrate housing the second thing is what by right the previous speaker mentioned that there are some 18 thousand units of entitled housing in the pipeline marketrate not been built now backlog has built up since 1994 why . Because the entitlements themselves are valuable and can be splatsd and traded the trade the entitlements bills no housing of any kind it does increase the Development Well and yet the third reason at what cost a fundamental city has many speakers said requires parks, requires traffic that didnt deadlock and it requires neighborhoods serving businesses and removing the cities to have a negative impact on such items will have a horrible cost to the city thank you and please support supervisor peskin good afternoon. Im 101 with the senior disability action he urge to support supervisor cohens resolution and want to say the public process and input are mechanisms that may be this better eliminating the discretionary review takes away the democratic process how it impacts our communities there are in the wind and shadow and traffic and population changes are very important issues on how families seniors, workingclass communities, move to schools and work and Pedestrian Safety how those concerns will be addressed without public process and again that is for those are built in mechanisms in order to make projects better thank you. Hi for sf bay area were enthusiastic about the governors bill and supervisor yees resolution supervisor wieners resolution protects you know it protects our occasion controls that is the most important thing about the bill a lot of speakers are confused the governors buy right explicit interfere with the rule 25 after the buy right if sacramento will still be 25 percent so if anyone told us the governors buy right with the local bmr is not true and not radical if anyone told us that was radical not in touch are realty buy right is the way the rest of the United States does land use it would, different than california but put us in line with the rest of the United States the cities have the ability to zone their own cities the governors buy right if youre city decides the Apartment Building to be built so it enforces local control what it does is keeps a small number of opponents from derailing a project because of the labors and want a labor process agreement or their because their neighbors into custody the buy right we have to ask ourselves after 40 years of allowing one or two neighbors to derail the projects i want to echo what was said earlier testimony that a vote for supervisor peskin resolution amendment will be a vote for the status quo we had 40 years of our Current System and not profited us thank you very much i. Lone district 4 resident i want to comment on the previous speaker im not executive director. laughter im opposing the tailor bill as currently drafted trail o7 intent to eliminate the local control over in any housing and eliminates Public Comment and review but any real review by the Planning Commission, Planning Department and board of appeals and board of supervisors the tailor bill 707 creates issues for development in the coastal zone im asking asking you to cack in solidarity by including language to include the coastal zone concerns and finally this bill is the governors nostalgia as the mayor of oakland when we were over rode zoning and fired his planning director to create housing im supporting the supervisor peskin legislation next speaker, please. Hi, im a resident from Hunters Point i hear everybody talking and hey power with you all listen to this im 56 years old and you wouldnt believe my rent is seven hundred and 88 and thats all i want to say. Okay. Is there any Public Comment that want to speak please come on up. Im a residence of San Francisco and im here to ask you to support supervisor peskin legislation i believe in local control of our housing and land use because we live here and shop here and pay taxed i dont think that is fair for someone that far away like governor jerry brown even though he lives in oakland but as governor not the right to tell the local people what to do with their lands we live here the reason im opposed to governor jerry brown buy right but it takes away the right for quality of life and the environmental reviews an important the Public Comment allows our democracy to survive and if we cant have control over our neighborhood what are the other rights to determine what kind of city and what kind of neighborhoods to have in the areas that have you the most influence in so, yes, i think that is really important for all the techies to have hours not having to commute between here and Silicon Valley know that ad a Green House Gas emissions but than the throw the baby out with the bath water im sure once they find housing theyll care about the housing environment in their city weve got to find a mill ground and make use of middle ground to mother displace businesses to accommodate those highend polling people does not side with governor jerry brown and support supervisor peskins legislation thank you. All right. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. At this time. Colleagues id like to make a recommendation we send those forward to the board so they can be considered together i wanted to check in with any final remarks. Im fine with our suggestions madam chair first of all, start by thanking all the members of the public that came to testify as well as individuals that have been in contact with mri my office relative to the subject number 8 on todays calendar and particularly wanted to thank my staff for their work on this let me start out maybe some of the differences between the two resolutions and im not trying to be humorous and not make light but were all entitled to our narrator how we got here there is not denial in the resolution that ive put forward that we are in the midst of a housing crisis many people like to talk about how we got here mr. Lazarus talks about the rezoning of San Francisco in the 19 san jose and people involved in politics that want to say the progressive board of supervisors 2000 i like to counter and remind them weve skoend and like it or not in the eastern neighborhoods and rincon hill the bloifrpt shipyard were the result of that expensive meeting progress that resulted in up zoning of the city in exchange for more affordability for more density that is not new i also agree with the contention that there are cities throughout the state counties throughout the state including in this region not doing what they can and should do and one of the speakers spoke to a wide range of rebates that could be i will add to that in in cases it is racism and other cases it is legitimate issues of impacts on neighborhoods and quality of life by the way, let me say this not a loss on anyone in the room we will live in the descend it city on the seaboard and dont need a doctor as the mayor says the city bird is the crane were building thousands and thousands of units we have tens of thousands of units in the pipeline but very important as we engage if the business of democracy that we give people whether their cases are legitimate or spurus the opportunity to petition their government and have a say and as members of board of supervisors we precede over appeals as a judicial body we dismiss the spurus appeals and indeed last week as a result of that major project where a communitybased organizations appealed a conditional use at 106 of Market Street just down the street in the tenderloin question ended up approving a landmark collision more Affordable Housing at one 01 hyde electricity its precisely where the two resolutions part company im in receipt of an email from spur the Planning Urban Research Pro Development think tank that raises the same thing that supervisor wiener raised which is on page 2 line 18 the resolution the amended resolution that is before us weve actually yet to amend includes a provision for an approval of major developments continue to allow for public review and local correction approval as currently provided by local laws we know in San Francisco that process is actually helped us build more Affordable Housing we can quibble as happened Community Many times between various members of the board as to 40 percent is real or not and 40 percent is real on paper but in reality in the mid 30s im happy to have that argument ambassador higher than federal and state telephone and 15 and higher than 25 happens because of the nature of those projects to be the subject of tough negotiations between communities and housing advocates and people elected members of the board of supervisors who want the right policy for San Francisco i think that has to the simple ticks look if you look at the things that the mayor and so forth in the letter of june 13th visually all the points that he has in the amended item number 8 but starts with a different tone the mayor says i write with overall support for the tailor bill but requests those key amendments that is simple aromatics i think the unless you make those amendments well treat that bill that was treated in Assembly Bill out of santa monica it is a pillow tactic the bottom line we need to get this piece of legislation right and important as i said before this was these items were sent to committee it would be nice in the city were speaking with one policy voice i believe that the mayors policy feel june 13th and the specific provisions on page 2 of item number 8 as well as the additional further be it resolved, if keeping what the words from the house of labor and not lost not often we hear from a you think 23i9d house of lark from the Building Trades and seiu we specifically include in page 3 of the amendment some provisions that acknowledge that we should support competitive wages and provide apprenticeships were to far apart, in fact, i feel like were arguing over semantics id like to make a motion to accept my attempt to as best as possible peering those two resolutions together and if it is the will of this body to send both items to the full board they need not they can go without recommendation and take that matter up at the for better or worse thank you supervisor peskin. Supervisor wiener you have remarks. Sure to clarify so supervisor peskin your motion to amend with respect 0 your own resolution and put both without recommendation. Thank you is a so a few comments and thank you to the members of the public for coming out and anytime were talking about housing and land use in our beautiful amazing constrained city environment it is going to bring outs peoples passions on all sides of the debate and the debate we should have this is the future of our city and whether were going to actually meaningful fully address this housing crisis or put Forward Solutions not solutions and not help the situation one of the members of the public made a comment about it were building housing for the tech workers and thats not in any view what is happening with the housing were building we have a growing population that started to grow before building much housing people didnt come here for that but wanted to live in San Francisco and not gotten to together in terms of providing enough housing the housing we need to produce in the city is for everything everyone who is in terms of who can move into that housing but make sure the people that are in housing today dont get pushed out there is so few housing with that lack of housing huge pressure on our existing hoefrt this is because we dont have enough housing that is what that boils down to creating housing is not about new residents but making sure our existing residents can stay where they are ive heard comments about the governors as of the legislation eliminates Community Input and again, i want to just to be clear when you look at my resolution i think probation officer peter coming down the pike said my alternative didnt say we sobers but work with the governor to amend miss legislation to actually honor zoning and allow for the number of units that are zoned while still having things like good Design Review and environmental and labor standards and locinclusionary t work with the governor instead of saying we oppose and so there will still be significant Community Input for example, the Community Input that results 2, 3, 4 rezoning that is not line item local zoning controls and supervisor peskin is correct the board of supervisors has magnificently reZoning District rincon hill, etc. That all required a rezoning that was not up to the governor but rezoned we went through extensive process in market octavia, in eastern neighborhoods in rincon hill another Treasure Island and other areas as well as at the Hunters Point shipyard this is all zoning changes lennar and Hunters Point they had to get a massive rezoning so major Community Inputs a decade for market octavia decade for eastern neighborhoods, of Community Input before this zoning happenings happened this wouldnt have changed o processes and that community button one iota we need to stood talking about the fact that the Community Process is probation officer with the and the fact it will continue in zoning with what this legislation does go has nothing to do with with the major designing discussions earlier but once that rezoning with Community Input and give and take one once that happens we should honor that we went through a decade to rezone the eastern neighborhoods and in my district only val a 12 unit project 100 percent after that decade of progress and took 6 years to get that 12 unit project through 6 years and appeal after appeal after appeal and the board of appeals arbitrarily chopped it off eliminated the affordable units in the building why is that a good process and how does that hip our housing situation once with zone in place honor the zone and have good Design Review and local control over inclusionary and everything that that is laid out not changed by the governors legislation you you know the bottom line say we need to be doing things definitely i feel like a lot of the options to this legislation and the desire to exempt out San Francisco and every city in california to, exempted out is really is just feels like more of the same and more the situation with 3,500 that is someday 5 thousand average rent or 6 thousand average rent this is an opportunity to engage in a thoughtful dialogue with the governor to try to come up with a better system for housing california thats why i introduced the alternative legislation us i think well pass it at the board of supervisors but support putting both resolutions how the with no recommendation thank you. Commissioner peskin did you have. Ill reverse my breath for the full board. Thats a good idea. Okay. So lets see we need to take supervisor peskin amendments and accept them. To his own resolution. To his own resolution. You have that madam clerk as amended. Thank you and excuseme. I want to make sure i gave you the amendments. No, but i received email would like to entertain a motion to move items 8 and 9 item 8 as amended to the full board. Without puc madam clerk, is there any additional business to come before this body . Theres no further business.

Report from administrationreport on the Administrative Division facility status, finance, and training within the department. Thank you. Supervisor tang has now entered the chambers. What we can do is go back to item 3 and then return to item 5. Thank you. Item 3, proposed legislation from the board of supervises. Discussion and possible action. Fire code disclosure of fire Safety Information. Ordinance amendsing the San Francisco fire code to require building owners and home owners associations to provide fire Safety Information to residents in buildsings with 3 or more dwelling units and annually fire Safety Information and train toog residents in building with 16 or more units making findings to local conditions per suntd to California Health and caed and directing the board of supervisors to transmit the ordinance to appropriate state officials. Thank you, madam secretary. Welcome supervisor tang. Thank you so much for taking the item so quickly. Good evening commissioners. Ka ty tang. The legislation is amend the fire code and there are 3 component tof. One is building with 3 units of more we like to require in common areas there be a posting regarding fire Safety Information. We am vision thill will be in the form of a map with symbol squz language when inspections were done to fire extinguishers and safety so it can be cultural competent. The second component is in buildings with 16 or more units scr the reason it is 16 or more is there is requirement that there be a resident manager living on site so in those buildsings we require there be a annual training with the tenants living in the building about fire safety and prevention. I think this is incredibly important because we have more and more People Living in San Francisco and together and more and more devices we are using there is so much more in terms of fire hazards we are all creating, so it is my goal to insure that through the trainings, the residents not only know what to do in the event of a fire, but also better prepare to prevent it in the first place. Thirdly, for buildings we are also requiring that each year the building the lands lord or resident manager provide disclosure to each tenants about fire safety and prevention. It contains similar information posted in the common areas but can also contain information contained in the trainings as well. Again, we would like to groiment document where emergency exists and are, last inspection squz how to access fire extinguishers and so forth. And if for the training portion, if the tenant does not attend, then we hope that the information in writing will help with the tenants. And so, just to take a step back, knroe there have been a lot of fires that occurred in the city recently and especially in the mission and so forth. We actually introduced theolog slaigz july lats year after the office had under gone the nurt training so after that i saw very inspired to work on legislation especially deal wg multiunit buildings and making sure people feel prepare squz how to prevent fires occurring. I think preparedness is the best way to go and most likely we will all probablythere may be a higher risk suffering from a fire incident than Something Else like a tsunami so after we had introduced the legislation i know the Fire Safety Taskforce was started and had done a lot of work to figure what we can do to better prepare or residents in San Francisco. We had waited until the process concluded to move frrd with our legislation but it actually ironicly had nothing do it r with it, we had gone through the nurt training and wanted to do something with fl city. It that is the legislation in a nutshell. If you have questions i can answer them. We went through all building inspection and cac and took recommendations such as any time the housing inspectors go on routine inspections they also look out for the common area postings that are required. Wonderful. Thank you so much for being here and thank you for being so diligent in introducing this legislation after your nurt training. A neighborhoods Emergency Response team is great and think it is fabulous that not only have you gone through had training but Staff Members as well. I should call for Public Comment before hand and ill see if our commissioners have questions for you mpt. Great, thank you. Thank you. Any member of the public that would like to comment on the proposed legislation . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. I will go to fellow commissioners and comments and questions beginning with commissioner cleveland thank you madam chair and supervisor tang for breeing here and introducing this legislation. I think all of us are keenly aware currentsly of a deficiency in the building stock in the city, particularly the residents. I would like to ask a few questions about the legislation if i may. First off, it is residential we are talking about and so i think in the top portion of the legislation ordinance amendsing San Francisco fire code we should insert residential where it speaks to building so we are clear we are dealing with buildings people live in. We can make that amendments. [inaudible] i had a call today from one constituent saying does this mean that in residential buildings we have to have fire drills . I looked at this and nothing says we have to have fire drills like commercial office buildsings so nothing requires fire drills, correct . It does not require fire drills, it is really a information session. If they want to walk through emergency exists they are welcome to do that and may encourage that. Was there consideration when thinking about this differentiateing between buildsings that are sprinkleed and those that were not . The legislation can be achievable in any building regardless if you have splinklers or not. That is touchy subject because of thecast. The buildings that are sprinkled perhaps their set of rules can bree different, less of a requirement. Just suggesting that as something to consider maybe as a amendment to your current legislation. Um, im curious about how we will communicate to tenants and if tenants are not responding to what they have in their tenant spaces, if they are unresponsive are you suggesting the landlord send certified letters to all tenants so their Apartment Buildings saying you have to Smoke Detectors in every bed room or sleeping area. You have to have co 2 detectors . If you have unresponsive tenant, what do and do . So, first to take a step back, we are not requiring the resident managers require anything of the tenants. This is simply information on prevention and so forths and preparedness in case of a fire, so there is nothing that says the landlord or residents manager need to insure yes, there is a working Smoke Detector even though that is already required in all units. So, there is nothingno additional requirement for the landlord to check. [inaudible] even they are in the units and have been disabled for some reason it is not going to be the landslords responsibility to make sure that fire not through this legislation. Is armed so to speak. Not through this legislation, we encourage the landlords and building managers to make sure they are functional and working but doesnt require the lands lord to do that. I can see in the common areas it is the lands lords responsibility but in the tenant areas it is much harder to supervise. Exactly you are asking the Fire Department to provide a lot more oversight, if you will on residential Apartment Buildings and to make sure that they are educating, if you will, the tenants on fire safety and make sure there are postings and what not. This will cost more money and take more time and wondering if you have done assessment or gotten any dollars and cents figures on just what it will cost to ramp up this additional inspection . So, so far what we are in am midst of the budget process as you all probably know so i know there is a request in terms of Fire Prevention safety particularly in the Mission District so im okay if for example our legislationif there a focus in the mission given so many fires have baracken out, there is the pot of funding well find out soon if it is in the budget and move from there. The in next budget process we will reevaluate whether more is needed. Do you see the budgeting focused on certain neighborhoods like the mission, tenderloin and chinatown, areas that are dense and had issues . I think it should be city wide that we all have personal preparedness and so forth. Now again, because what happened in the mission recently, im okay if we want to start there first and thing city wide some of the additional funding to go to create training materials, if you will, Safety Training teerms the Fire Department could dissiminate. It is great if it Fire Department had the fundsing and put the notices together, on line it could be downloaded and uploaded and printed out and fill in the blanks with the number of units and safety tips because they will be uniform a lot of time squz add ichb the ones particular to your building. I think it is a great idea and think your legislation is a positive step in the right direction, it just needs to be funded nchlt sure, and quee will know soon if the effort will be funded and can advocate for more once we enter the next fiscal year to broaden the scope of that work. And again, i think that a lot of our work does overlap with the Fire Safety Task force recommendations as well, so i think that there is already talk of that funding because of that process. Thank you, supervisor. Thank you, vise president cleveland. Commissioner nucauja thank you very much and thank you supervisor tang coming this evening and making a presentation on this change. Is it a change or is it a clear addition to the Building Code . The reason i frame it that way, maybe i should just comment that i want to be clear that we are looking at buildings with tenants with 3 or more or 16 or more and 3 and more is more of a education posting, im just paraphrasing, the 16 plus is rolled into integration of training by the individual tenants with accountability and some responsibility by the owner. I deem on the hearing that your inspiration came from nurt training i thank you for the participation and inspiration because you know as well as i do nurt training or the concept is city wide. It is preparation for everybody in the city and county of San Francisco. It is volunteer mechanism. What i hear through this is we are triing to get the tenants of the building owners to join in education to the individuals in a language they understand as to information printed to advance their safety. That is kind of how i get this interpreted so when i ask if this is different than supervisor campos legislation it is vastly different because it focus on the similarities of fires in the community. In the mission it talks about fire systems and fire alarms in terms of cost additional responsibility for our personnel in terms of the question that i asked is the oversight. In this lard regard as i understand it, concept wale it sound like a great idea to educate tenants and have training. My question is you have all these levels, who will reinforce the participation because there is a point behind all this and if i may, supervisor, i can like to ask madam president , chief prevention as to as you introduce this maybe you can answer some of this too, introductions is there something within the buildings code that does want address these . I like to hear the Fire Departments take on this as it is adequate look at supervisors and chief gun jolls we are will toog work on this legislation. I spoke with [inaudible] fiscal impact on the Fire Department and i do agree that we should do it as a priority where we have to go first. I think that what my fire marshal said i can have him [inaudible] is that this could be a possibility potential 25,000 buildings and if that is the case i believe one fte full Time Employee can handle 2 thousand of those and that would be a impact to the department. We look forward work wg you and getting down to the finer details of a legislation if it does pass. Dan, if you like to further comment on how much it might impact us, if you can chief gonzalez, at thistume i like to hear from fire marsing decossio. Good evening commissioners, chief. We met today and in full agreement and think this is a good idea, the question is resources and what it take tooz implement this. I spoke with the plan check section. We do something similar with business and high rise buildings and with hotels and motels. Basically those occupancy transient in nature. These maps and evacmaps and safety maps familiarize the occupants with their surroundings. That is why it isnt typically seen in apartment buildsings because they live there and there long term, however i agree we reinforce the notion to familiarize yourself with the building. Having said that, each map compare today what we do now with office buildsings is basically over the counter review and takes about a hour to review. We can do each site in about a hour so one hour per map for each building for plan review and for field inspections it takes two tripsism wego out the first passusually you voosoft copy of the map you place for orientation and look at the layout of the building, is everything configured correctly and oriented correctly. Once approved that goes for manufacturing and do follow up inspection. Total of 3 hoursnot talking high rise buildings, we are talking buildings 3, 4 stories in height a average 3 hours a building. The number of buildsings we have now, if we look at 3 units and more, approximately 25,000 buildsings so assume those buildings that dont have common areas and direct access to public way, this would be a non issue as far at the maps. I dont know how that changes the numbers, but it will be at least 20,000. 16 or more units now we expect 9 or more and thatd is about 5,000 a year. Where does 16 cut off . Im not sure what the numbers are yet for the training. I like to speak to the supervisor and get more detail on her vision oof what type of training involves and oversight or regulation, what role we play in that. Again, concept wale we like the idea, just need to dig more and get better understanding and detail and also our resources that will be needed. Thank you. Mr. Courseo, do you have anything to add and supervisor tang im sure would like to speak again. Mark coursey. Just to echo what chief decossio and gonzalez. To insure we have sufficient resources to undertake what is required. There is overlap on some of the functioniment the department does and there also is the evnew for revenues generated for inspection and plan review so dont think that is a issue, it is just dependent and working closely with supervises office on the details whether is phased or how the roll out will be implemented to insure we have sufficient resources. Thank you mr. Corso. Thank you and one thing that would add is we have been in conversations for example with the Department Association and i think that is a really great avenue and even the Small Properties association as well to have maybe there are some forms that would be generated by the Fire Department and spoke about this at the building inspection cac meeting. The Department Association can turn arounds the information so we donts always have to go to the Fire Department staff so that something we discussed early on about so it doesnt overburden the Fire Department staffing. Thank you. Ill go back to commissioner nakajo. Thank you. I did want to hear from chief decossio and mr. Corso. When the numbers come to me of 3 to 16 it covers everybodys. For myself when it was bigger residents or numbers there is a limititation or variable with that mptd the numbers we are talking about is everybody. So, for me if this is part the spirit of education, concept wale i support that. What i want to hear from the department is enforcement of this as the inspectors go to the residents what additional time it will take for us to do that and there is additional work and coordination between the department and various tenant. I think that is a lot of work but support it and think it is real important. I think that the whole spirit of nurt is get folks volunteer to the table to educate them sevl squz be prepared. I think the goal of this legislation the way i read it and educate as many people we can in terms of what to do in the light of tragedy or fire. To me it makes sense. Every hotel room i go to as i close the door i look for the map where i am i look frg the star how to get the heck out of there if something happens like a fire. For me in terms of the tenant or individuals to create that preparedness i think is a good thing so just wanted to comment on that and make sure we have revenue reinforcement within the legislation. One of the things i would also note that not only is it about personal preparedness but the Property Owner or manager has to do that posting with information about when things are last inspected, i think it also serves as reinforcement they are doing their job to make sure just like we have to make sure the elevator permit is updated ever year, we want to make sure they do their job tooz have the inspections. One other thing i forgot tonote is this legislation has a new requirement where in those multiunit building there would be a visible place where the residents manager or the landlord have information reposted so if a fire inspector goes into the building for routine inspection they can easily contact the manager and this was a suggestion brought to me and thought it made sense because i live in the multiunits building and the fire inspectors came in and couldnt get a hold of the managers. They did come and found a violation and can imagine this happening countless time. My hope is it reduces staff time to come back to a building to access when the resident manager isnt there and dont know their phone number. I hope that will help. Thank you. Commissioner mardman. Hardeman. Thank you madam president and supervisor tang for taking this challenge on. And thanks for your demeanor. You didnt come and scream at the commissioners and all the chiefs about the fire on Mission Street again, appreciate that. It was a very tragic one. Chicago and new york have legislation and sure they have similar legislation, anybody check with them . No, i did not personally. It seems to me they probably would have done this type of a legislation. Just curiosity. I do appreciatetle is all positive for the Fire Commission and for the Fire Department because all the intentions are meant to help people and toso the finances of it is something that has to be worked out but it is very well written, very thankful you are involved because just the way you carry yourself whether it is a Committee Meeting or supervisor meeting or here, very good demeanor and nice way of dealing with people. I just want to comp lment you on. Thanks. I want to go back to commissioner nakajo question between the difference between what supervisor campos put forth and this before you. One key difference is the fire code supervisor compos such on the building and fire code. Ours has more in termoffs the postings and trainings but both have intept making sure certain things are working in terms of fire safety. For implementation we have work to do to make sure we are coordinateed on both pieces and will follow up on the funding discussion and so forth. Thank you. Supervisor tang, can you tell me a little more about how the two legislations that are being proposed would be combined or joined . So, what we tried to do was at least tried to write it in a way for implementitation will be easier. I original had for building of 5 unit or more the postings in the common areas take place. Because supervisor campos impacts 3 or more 1 why i changed my. I hope the way we structured it awill allow all the staff to piece the two legislation together and it is a streamline way of implementation. Where does the legislation rest now . It will be heard by committee at the board for the Fire Commission decides to give some sort of recommendation today. Okay. And what about the buildings that dont have a traditional common area you know like a number of victorians, people have their own separate entrances so other than the stoop landings, there is no common area. So, we discussed this at the building Commission Meeting as well and removed language about what to do in those situation. The building inspection folks felt there are so few types of those buildings there is a way to post it somewhere. I did want to put it in legislation but that can be sorted out. Just somewhere where people can see it. I think the legislation is good and think a number of commissioners have all said you know, we just need to make sure there is funding in place to be able to fulfill our obligations. You talked about a phased roll out, can you talk more about that . I dont think i mentioned a phased roll out, i talked about in this budget process we are trying to secure fundsing for Fire Prevention outreach in the mission and so hopefully that will stick and we will evaluate how much is needed for the program and get it into next years budget for this program and inspections that are needed, when would you expect all the buildings to have been inexpected . Eventually once the ordinance takes effect and the date of it it is supposed to be annually, however, within issue that came up is the fact that with building inspection you got inspectors inspecting a certain number of units every 5 years Fire Department got 3 plus units and every yearthere is a gap in terms of inspections between the Building Commission commissionbuilding inspector squz fire staff and so i think that is a larger conversation. I dont think we will be able to solve that with legislation but it is issue we noted and so again, that is why we actually wrote into our legislation that when a building inspector is coming to a building they can also look for this if sthra gap period at least the firehopefully there is a way the building inspectors can notify the Fire Department has been done. Is there a task force or joint committee or any particular body that will be grappling with the details of implementation . There isnt a committee but hope to use the Fire Safety Task force if we need to work out more details here. Okay, because i think the details with a vore short timeframe coming up, the beginning of 2017 the details will have to be hammered out fairly quickly so getting all the parties slav involved in the same room to do that would help us in terms of implementitation. Absolutely. Thank you i see Vice President cleveland has a comment and commissioner nakajo. Thank you. I want to first thank you work wg the residential Property Owners association in the city to gauge their input on how they will implement it. My question follows on to our president s question, you have 20 to 25,000 buildsings that need to comply with the ordinance and be inspected, when do you think all 20 to 25,000 buildings will be inspected for compliance . Yadont know that answer, i think had Fire Department is probably better equipt to answer that. We can look into a more phased in roll out if that is something you desires in terms of the workload but dont know how you would face it out or certain neighborhoods. I dont know if i want it based on neighborhoods, but knroi better than i how long it take tooz complete your inspections. You want me toill differ to our chief. Again phrvisor tang, we offer our cooperation and use a matrix and it isnt by neighborhoods but we have a lot of variables but would be a phase out approach and would look to find efficiency if we have to train building owners maybe we can create a module. We talked about maybe something on a website that they made sure they done this and every tenant checked it off. We are willing to work with you and want to find cost efficiency, we just know it will be a fiscal impact but remains tobe seen and dont expect it will be 25,000 in a year i can work to amend the language ifinacysary to accommodate your inspection schedule at committee. There is still wiggle room for that. Absolutely and offer fire marshal decozeios services for that. Thank you. Thank you supervisors. I think with supervisor wiener codes legislation and campos and now with your legislation Fire Department is hit with a lot of new requirements, if you will and a lot more work, so we are not adverse to it, i think the commission supports all the initiatives of the 3 supervisors here including yourself, we just need the finances and ability to actually do it. Thank you. Thank you vise president s cleveland. At this time it would be appropriate for a motion. Put your thinking caps on and ill go to commissioner nakajo. Thank you madam president. I was trying to get a point of clarifyication with you supervisors as you would like to see as we had this discussion with the various recommendation squz suggested amendments to recommend and approve this this evening, is that what we are doing this evening supervisor . Sure if you like to sends forth recommendations you like me to make by the time the legislation hits committee im happy to work on those. For myself i think all agree with it. I see it as a huge task and education task. As commissioners expressed to support it and see how it works out logistically is the key issue and dont think we need to repeat how we will function with that. I hear some kind of a possible amendment in terms of prioritys or roll out dependent on the priorities that occur within the mission all in the spirit of Fire Prevention and Education City wide, so again, i would lean on the department to come out to when they think realistic to address the questions vise president cleveland put out, when do you think this would be accomplished . The other part is it is a huge education piece. Nurt is such a Big Education piece so part of that is our department within the last couple years are growing and evolving into all types of services and legislation within the city. Madam president , i like to make a motion to recommend we approve this legislation sponsored by supervisor tang. Thank you commissioner nakajo. Thank you for your second Vice President cleveland. Just reviewing the discussion that we had this afternoon, early evening. Does your motion include making it clear that this is for residential buildings only . And also, the prompt of a phased out program. Ill let the supervisor responds to again the clear definition of what we are trying to target but the phase out concept i think you understand the spirit of that with the Fire Department is coordinateed discussion of how we will be able to implement this lined up with responsibility of budget revenues so we can realistically do this and figure out withcome out with supervisor campos as tohow politically and use that delicately phase out with the city in fire safety. I think we are all on the same page so supervisor if you want to include that in the recommendation i think that is great and happy to make those amendments at committee. Thank you. We have a motion on the floor, we have a second. We have acceptance of friendly amendment to the motion and all in favor please signify by saying aye. Aye. Thank you so much. Thank you for your time. Appreciate it. We appreciate you as well. Madam secretary. Do you want me to recall item 5 . Yes, ifia could. Item 5, chief of department report. Report from Mark Gonzalez, report on currents iges as, actaveties and esuperintendent since meeting june 8, 2016 including fiscal year 201516 budget academies and 150th an zrsry, update and special eventsen communication and outreach to other Government Agencies and the public. Rortd from administration, report on the admin straisive division of fleet, facilities, status and finance support services, home land security and training within the department. It would be a few weeks before we would address the fire that happened over the weekend but i did visit the site yesterday and chief suhr was very kind to show me around and talk about some things so i asked for a detailed report to the commission this evening regarding that and it will be part of chief gonzalez report. Thank you. Good evening commissioners. Ill start off the chiefs report with the 5th alarm in bruno heights saturday. I did respond to it. Assistant chief suhr was assistance commander. He was present would a very challenging fire from the get go. It was a windy day, afternoon and warm day. A large amount of black smoke. It looked like it was coming from the hotel on the corner but it was behind the hotel and more than one building was involved. He had to make decision based on what he saw first and it was a changing environment and fire. I like to cumind all the units. They all did a great job. Without the coordinateed fire tactic they did do they would have lost a lot more than 6 buildings. With that, i like to introduce chief to the presentation. Welcome chief. This is a really preliminary report limited in nature based on what we know to this point. Chief gonzalez asked me to hasteen my report to him and will try to get that done in the next couple weeks if possible. I put together some of the facts of the incident and videos i was able to download. If you look up on the screen over here5th alarm the incident number phone call came in at 1419 or 219 in the afternoon. The reported address is 3312 Mission Street which is south of the corner buildings of 3300 Mission Street. Wish that was bigger for us to see, but some of the times219 is when the call came in. At 1423 so 4 minutes later 4 units arrived and announced it was a working fire. Upon my arrival observing smoke conditions, the potential for a fire and looking at the size of the building we requested second alarm which brings 4 additional engines and Truck Company and battalion cheap. Went to 4 alarm. Additional rest cue quadand another rescue captain. At the third alarm things were very dynamic, there were a lot of things going on and input coming from the interior companies and my observations and started to anticipate the need for the potential for setting up exterior operations so i called another Truck Company before asking for the forth alarm. It become clear Additional Resources will be required. 1441 hours is 13 minutes later from the forth alarm, we started to have problems with water run off from the building and so a utility unit was called from station 21 to move water and dealing with the sewer and Water Department to deal with the run off and hose streams opraiterating in the building to prevent further Property Damage from water. At 1820 hours we declared the fire contained but it wasnt until the next morning when we declared the fire under control. The total resources we had on scene were 22 engine companies, aithd truck companies, both rescue squads, [inaudible] 3 rescue captains and number of specialized pieces of equipment for about half the on duty staff. Preliminary estimate on property loss is 9 million. Displaiss octpoints are 60. We had two civilians transported for smoke inhuilation and one other individual was evaluated at the scene and released from the parent and as far as i know the cause is still under investigation. We continued with operations at the fire. I didi observed and clearly understood the original companies on the scene had taken energy and smoke and heat so it was my primary ub objective to rotate the companies to get cleaned up and take a shower and get rest and get hydrated. We continued with the fire watch at 8 oclock working with [inaudible] at the communication center. In 4 hour increments we had battalion chief, 4 engines and 2 truck companies. We remained on site and released the properties back to the building ownersion at 2000 hours sunday evening. To give a orientation, this is looking south on Mission Street. Mission street is the larger intersection here on the left and this is 29th street below. The corner building. That is interesting the red dot doesnt work on the screen. Let me walk over here. This is the building at 29th and mission and this is [inaudible] this is 29th street. This area behinds the building is extension or [inaudible] of the Hardware Store on 29th street and delivery access door and slopes down fl to the basement area. We have [inaudible] down 29th street westbounds on 29th street. When i first arrived on scene when we approached the scene i saw the smoke conditions over the corner Apartment Building, something all as chief officers look at and realize once it gets into the attic space we will have our hands full. The smoke conditions and put into my hard drive is i had a fire in the corner buildings. The smoke was over the top the building looked like it was coming from the rear. One reason i went for saecd alarm, i anticipated getting companies inside. The First Engine Company thought the same thing, the initial hose line going into this fire entered that property on the Mission Street side on the stair well that went up the stairs. I [inaudible] on 29th street as i walk into set up [inaudible] i observed 11 engines taking their hose line into the building. I think the primary fire is in the corner building. Different perspective, this is now looking west. You see the corner building at 29 th and mission, the hard ware and store with the tarp on top. Probably about the half mark maybe less than that became well involved in the fire and fire wasit appears the origin of the fire is in the triangular area at the rear the building [inaudible] if you look that orientation, it is quickly intathe corner building, [inaudible] this is westbound on 29th street. Engine companies, engine 26 [inaudible] on the Mission Street side and coming down 29th street they noticed that that building the first building west was being impacted by fire and positioned there and informed me to knock down fire in that location. From a orientation perspective, this is a typical San Francisco challenge for all of us because of how buildsings are laid out in San Francisco. We have zero property lines. Our buildings are very dense. Im looking at the corner Apartment Building and of all the challenges and priorities that i had to think about, the time of day was to our advantage. A fire at 2 20 in the afternoon on saturday and put it at 2 20 in the morning i have different objective squz priorities. Very fortunate at the end we have two minor injuries. To me it is a comp lment to men and women of the department how this was handsled. Any questions about there orientation . We can come back to that if we need to. So, i downloaded 3 videos. This video here is probably one of the earliest videos available for this incident. It is someone on a muni bus. The muni bus is heading north on Mission Street. [inaudible] this is [inaudible] the smoke conditions are on the top of the building [inaudible] indicated to me it was potentially in the corner building. There is a short amount of time this bus sitting here [inaudible] becomes significant in a short amount of time. Towards the rear of the building, if you remember the orientation that is at theif you look that front of 3300 Mission Street is the left rear the building in the coal hardware area. This is probably if i was to be betting this is about 2 or 3 minutes after we are on scene. This fire has a significant head start and has Energy Behind it and there is a usual for that time of day but maybe more than usual wind blowing west toeast and can see the smoke leaning in that direction. So, this video is taken from across the street maybe just a little later, probably im geing to guess probably 1435 or 1440. One thing i find curious about this is that you can hear the wind. You can see the trees moving and how the smoke is laying down. [inaudible] you can see the fire coming out of the top of the roof. This is 10 to 12 minutes after on scene [inaudible] one thing i liked about the video is it shows the fire conditions and short amount of time and see the win conditions we are confrontsed with. The First Engine Company took the hose line up the coal hardware. They are going up a chimany with wind coming down at them. It is probably soon after i see the conditions changing in hearing report of the battalion chief i made the determination to remove the Fire Fighters and get into exterior operations for defensive operation. This is now the building next to the coal Hardware Store. It was under construction, so it was wide open and no sheet rock, it was studded up walls, the rear window was [inaudible] so it wasnt going to take much energy to get of the coal Hardware Store and into this building. Thats the presentation up to this point from arrival on the scene at 1419, rapid progression to second, third, special call of 4th and 5th alarm. Some unique challenges is we have dealing with Hardware Store and you center small propane tanks blowing and paint cans. The owner of the building talking about being furt ertilizer in the building. [inaudible] did air monitoring and had the department of public helths come out and support with water run off dealing with the sewer department. At some point in the early stages we were contacted by Saint Lukes Hospital to the north of this location and they are concerned about smokegretting into their building. I worked closely with public nrfgz officer who contacted emergency communication to put out a advisory in a 5 block area to shelter in place because of the amount of smoke and potential of hazards in the air from this type of fire. Between air monitoring, water run off, rapid advancement of fire conditions on the ground, once again at the conclusion of all this, very proud of the response that injuries were at a minimum and the potential for what it could have been is a true testament to the men and women of our department. Wonderful, thank you cheer for that update and thank you for gathering the information for residents in such a timely fashion. We will go back to chief gonzalez report. You want to ask him now . Okay. Alright, chief the commissioners would like to hear you now, they cant wait. Commissioner nakajo. Madam president , thank you very much chief for your report. We again know that usually we wait for couple weeks for the report but because of the enormity of the fire and most recent and all the fires in the mission we thank you for the timely update and report. Truly appreciate the way you described it chronologically as the engines and men and women responded. Before i ask anything i want to echo the comlment to you chief and all the men and women in the department that respondsed to that fire. Um, folks know i have been here for a little while but a 5 alarmer is a big one and just a observation how quickly it went from 2 to 3 to 4 again for us a lot of us in the department once you hit 3 and 4 you are really paying attention, not that you dont Pay Attention to the other levels. With it being in the mission is again in the mission. Seeing how it fs and observation from the Television Crew jz such i know at one time we had a video recorder that would bring all the material to us and perhaps some day we can coordinate with the tv station tooz take advantage on that but this helps. Can you tell what is geing on with the building . You talked about 60 civilians but in termoffs the Fire Department is the work done, are there stationed with personnel and turned it over so chief could i getd response . I can get clarity from had fire marshal but it is my understanding the hotel may be saved because it is sprinklered. [inaudible] under dbi at the time. Yes, the corner building sro had a sprinkler system. Also a fire alarm which functioned properly, arriving units herd the soundsing alarm. The buildings are in the hands of the Building Department, their jurisdiction and to my understanding they will demolish two of them declaring a emergency demolition within the next few days. That is all i have at this time. Chief the other thing and observation, it seems there are tenants and businesses. As you go and do your inspections and make sure that fire is completely out, it seemed to me that a lot of the personnel or individuals that attendance on the streets, they needed more information or again, i express this and i was young but my family had a 4 alarm fire and say thank god for the red cross but folks want to know what to do, where to go, do i get to pick up my materials so it is there coordination between ourselves through the department, between the Fire Department and Mayors Office or Building Department that you knowx i think we talked about someone being there providing information to the public citizens as to what is going on and madam president , i also wanted to go and observe but because of that not knowing exactly what will be on i hesitateed not to put curious what is in place or what is not in place and what we might be able to do i think president covington experienced some of it yesterday. 8 oclock sunday evening the Fire Department officially turned the Building Back it the owners and outside agencies from the Mayors Office, dbi, are on sight and deal wg building owners. To your point when i stepped out of the vehicle yesterday the tenants of the buildings are seeking a lot of information and if there somebody on site from the city to assist, as a Fire Department we become caunds wit to get debi or Mayors Office involved. I think it would be in the best interest of the city for all of us if somebody remainled on site in a vehicle or information sentser people that are displaced and looking for pass ports and personal belongings and told they cant go back in the building and the owners are not being as responsive as they would like. I will say is the city family, Mayors Office, dbi, Fire Department needs to provide a presence for some period of time. I think it would help mitigate that and be the proper thing to do. Chief did you want to respond . Y i have a couple things. That day when the tenants did come back and saw the circumstances, there was a collection point for the occupant in the safe way parking law with red cross and Mayors Office and supervisor campos and our chief of department came back on duty for the fire and there was direction given to the occupants then. Also what we are doing there is a meeting friday with the residents and the community and mayor campos, dbi and ourselves, so there is follow up. I do believe that this is the hardest thing, you lose everything. Thankfully everybody is healthy but need direction especially a lot of the poor citizens in the sro, a lot donts have Fire Insurance and there should be something available to them. I appreciate this information but commissioners and colleagues, when the Fire Department goes out whether it is inspecting units folks gravitate to the department and want help. That is what is going on and if the Fire Department is there we try to provide as much as we can and it is lot of information we cannot provide. I think that is correct. There needs to be a collaboration of city agencies to work with each other and there needs to be a overarching authority and there are different types of occupants, so to speak and where to direct them for help would help. I will give a example, a gentlemen came by the fire house how he will get hiss pass port and the valivation army sent them to the fire house to see if we can help is so made phone call squz got him in the right direction. If there was somebody on site for a period of time, people just want information. I think at some point we should try to take this and real action. I like to collaborate with our commissioners on this department. Again i know we take a lot of responsibility but Something Like this if it doesnt exist it doesnt have to be a 5 alarm fire, it can be any major incidence, if your house is there, you still go there. What do you do . I think we should try to come up with a coordination so i will put it up to administration and president s of the commission and colleagues to try to do something about that and follow through the the department or Mayors Office or who ever needs to be involved. Thank you very much. Thank you. Any other commissioners have questions for chief . I want to echo commissioners nakajos sentiment that i commend you and everyone involved fighting the fire and putting it out as quickly as possible, saving lives so like to commend everyone putting the fire out. Commissioner hardeman. Yes. Another job well done. Wisdom, that is what comes when somebody has been arounds a while and that is what you bring to the table. I like that you pulled everybody out of the building when you did. It was a good time. Glad to hear you sent the earliest crew back, that comes from judgment being around. You knee the heat of that is the mosti was watching in sacramento, i was at my daughter in laws soccer game. [inaudible] anybody knows soccer been arounds a long time, she plays on the team sporadicly because she is pretty old and scored a goal in the 89th minute and the team won. But your judgment, quite often your name comes up. When you go to work you can count there will be a great alarm fire so it pays to stay home. That will be coming soon. We dont want you to retire. At least i want to encourage to do that. Anyway, that was quite a6 buildings, watching and listening to it and the sound was amazing hear thg water and wind and thought i heard a chain saw in the background, so amazing it didnt spread further and congratulations on a great job and made the San Francisco Fire Department look good. Thank you. Okay. Chief gonzalez did you want to Say Something . I just like to reiterate that [inaudible] did a great job as did the other units [inaudible] San Francisco Fire Department. Thank you. Chief [inaudible] there is a lot to be said for the amount of experience that is needed to coordinate this effort when you have 6 buildings ingulfed and involved and eventhank bauz god for a lot of things, the time of day and the fact the sro had sprinklers and alarms. That made a tremendous reason and one reason we are pushs for all the safety measures. I want to share with the commissioners that we know during the heat of the moment that our members are of the department are cool headed and efficient and very good at what they do but also afterwards. Yesterday when i was with chief [inaudible] a number of people were standing outside of the building saying we want to get in and need to get in. This young man from france who could not have access to his pass port, it was the second day we was told you will be able to get into the building today so he lost two days of work and it seems as if he showed up at the fire station it was a different person. Okay. Another story. People are not only hungry for information, they are des prit for information about how they can be reunited with their important papers and their things. To commissioner nakajos suggestion and i know chief sera guza and chatted about this yesterday, there does have to be better coordination, there does have to be a point person to make sure that when so many peoples homes and belongings are involved, that there is a person who can answer their questions and give them a time table, a realtime table, not a estimate well sometime this week, so again to commissioner nakajos statement, if we have to take the lead on pushing for such a person in such a process i think it is all to the good. Thank you for your excellent presentation and thank you also chief [inaudible] you there . Hello. Alright. And now we will return to the chiefs roret. Report. Thank you. The chiefs report.

Thank you madam president and thank you chief williams for your comprehensive report. Had a couple questions and obviously i think we are all delighted that proposition 8 passed and now the department has 58 million, 44 dedicated to a new ems headquarters, badly needed, glad it passed. How quickly can we get that ems new headquarters built . I will have assistant deputy cheap lombardi elaborate. Um, hopefully 3 years. The conservativeinate when the bond was done is 2021. We hoped to have it done by 2019 year. We had the knhiment commitment to the mayor and to stroomline this we had commitment from director of pubhook works and which chief is commitmented to getting it done. One of the smart things mr. Corso did is we put in the budget a little like for lack of better words, cash advance to keep the process moving now. The bond passed at 79 percent that doesnt mean we get the money right away. We would have had a gap between now and december but put in the budget to advance money to continue with design and when december comes we reimburse that money but our progress continues to go ahead. That was super smart the department. Thank you mark. One final question, the new lease with treasure ilen for Training Facility, it is 5 year lease, crecktd . We are trying it negotiate 3 to 5 years, but it doesnt change anything as far as vacating the property. Right, but we are tay paying to be there, is that correct . Um, mark can clarify. We provide cuv overage for the island and think washes out in the end. How that is written up mark can clarify but we are not out of pocket that is quhut what i wanted to hear. All my questions. Thank you. Commissioner nakajo. Thank you very much madam president and chief williams thank you very much and chief gonzalez, thank you. If we can have chief lombardi to provide all the information. He is here all the time and appreciate that as long as we have a budget allocation, super smart mr. Corso and very gratifyed for that. By the time chief lombardi ems new headquarters is built, is that within completion of mayor lees term, is he still in aufsh by the completion date . Optimistly, yes. I okay. I need today hear that as well because i am in a similar path as well so [inaudible] the forsight and fortitude of vise prez dependent cleveland thank you very much. How many members are part of the 120 now that 3 dropped out, what is the total number of the class of 120 . Currently in the 120th academy 42. 42 is without station 49 . That is correct, we will have 12. Station 49 is joining in two weeks the 3 members will be replaced . Two tomorrow, one later this week. I want to express how gratifyed i am to hear that explanation, not that im looking for tidbits, im looking for information so 3 candidates not there and there are various reasonings it helps to understand that but also it helps that we have 3 other candidates ready to go. When does the class graduate . Friday november 4 and the 121 is anticipated to begin that monday, november 7. You anticipated my next question chief, that the 121 121 will start on november . Monday november 7. Okay. What is the anticipated numbers of h 2s on that november 121 class . It will have the same make up. 42 h 2s and 12 h 3 level 2. 42 are basically off the list . Yes. I wanted to at this time express my appreciation as part the commission to chief [inaudible] and your training officers chief. We participated at graduation and seeing the members that come and know the commissioners attended the h 3 graduation. The training [inaudible] are working very hard and we the commission appreciate that. There is a lot of wear and tear on the training officers mpt to be fair and on top of it is important. I look at it as a great achievement if members are asked to participate in the academy. I want to say that and when isi asked that question about 121 starting november the 9th. 7th. Okay. That is all my questions at this present time chief williams. Thank you very much chblts. Thank you commissioner nakajo. Commissioner hardeman. Thank you madam president and thank you for your lengthy report that shows you are working pretty hard. Thank you. I echo the statements of commissioner nakajo that the best day as a commissioner is when graduating class h 2s and all those smiles and happy families. Somebody said the best day of their life as a fire fighter will be that day and fondest memory so that is great. The fire boat is too bad it got set back but it is minor step. Yes the two ladder trucks, did you give us a approximate delivery date on those . The two ladder truckerize not ordered yet. The anticipation is get the speck hopefully by end of july and goes through oca out to bid and will order them but we were allocated money for two ladder trucks within this fiscal budget. Okay. On the 9 ambulances chief williams you said 4 will be added in july, are the other 5 ordered already . 9 have been ordered already and within this new fiscal budget we got another 4 so it is total of 13. Wonderful. Thank you very good news. That was it. I just want to add commissioner if you notice behind me it is lights in numbers because a lot of attendees are in the 120th academy. Commissioner nakajo has an additional question. One more additional i forgot to ask. Is it possible if we the commissioners can beprivy to the information on the class that just came in 120 in terms of gender and ethnicity . Is that something that can be provided later on . It can be provided at a later date. Tomorrow i can get that information to you. I appreciate that very much. Thank you commission. I apologize for not having that information tonight. Thats alright. I wonder if at this time someone can give us a little more information regarding the open Market Street construction and how that is going to impact truck 6. You are talking about the building going in on oak street, correct . Yes after kicking around the idea of a contra flow lane it was clear the chief was not in favor of it and so we had a meeting with the other city departments, the Planning Department, mta from the Fire Department and myself and battalion 2 was there and voiced our concerns. All the other city departments believe it or not had the shame concerns just took us coming to the table to voice our concern so all the city departments were in agreement. It isnt our position to go back to the developer it is Planning Department and told them a contra flow lane isnt acceptably are trying to come unwith alternative. We would like to continue our response down oak street to Market Street and battalion 3 was at the table gave concerns of the choke points for traffic and so as far asi left the meeting feeling good all the city departments are on the same page and understood our needs and waiting to see a clean proposal come back to see what the developer comes back with. Thank you. Maybe we can get an update at a later time. Thank you for your report chief williams and anything to add chief gonzalez . That is it for me. Thank you for your report as well. Madam secretary. Iletm 8, agenda for next Fire Commission meeting. Discussion regarding ajendsa for the july 13, 2016 meeting.

Alright. Commissioner nakajo . Madam president , thank you. I dont know if this needs to be agendized in the sense of opidate of information about rescue captain 4 and station 49 perhaps again ill leave it up to your discretion on it being agendized or not just seeking update. Thank you, happy to include that. Vice president cleveland . I like to echo commissioner nakajos request to get update on the station 49 staffing issue.
