Transcripts For SFGTV BOS Replay Land Use Committee 52316 20160524

The commission unanimously voted to accept a stipulation on behalf of respondent George Gascone. Respondent Christine Soto debari and Michael Swart where in they stipulated that they violated section 3. 230 which prohibits any city officer for sulitinging political contributions 23r5u78 any other City Employee directly or indirectly unless the solicitation is a communication targeted to the significant segment of the public which may include city officers. They stipulated at a fundraising event there were solicitations made of City Employees to mr. Gascones campaign, where the bulk if not all of the participants were employees of his office or other City Employees. Mr. Gascone has accepted responsibility and has agreed to pay a fine of 4 thousand for the alleged violation or stipulated violations and mrs. Dubari, agreed to pay a fine of 14,000. I mean, 1, 400 and mr. Swart agreed to pay the fine of 1, 400. I would say i think it is important for the public to understand that all 3 of these individuals admitting they have violated the section said they were unaware of the prohibition about City Employees solicit other City Employee and in the case of mr. Gascone, he certainly had attended ethics training which contained training concerning the specific prohibition which all 3 of them said that they were really not aware existed partly because they had been solicited by other City Employees in the past. Hopefully this disposition of these will be a message to all City Employees concerning the ban on City Employees soliciting other City Employees. There were also listed a number of individuals from the office who were part of the host for this fundraiser on november 13 and those individuals, no fines are being assess against them, but they will receive warning letters reminding them of the ban so that it will not occur in the future. Any mr. Chair. During the closed session i put on the record at the request of the City Attorney that over the years i have had professional contacts with chief and District Attorney George Gasconon various matters dealing with the cities crimial Justice System and it was the sense the commission in regard to those contacts that i have had with him on those matters that those did not arise to any kind of level of requiring me to recuse myself and the City Attorney also agreed that those pasted contacts i had with District Attorney George Gascon procedurely professional on matters deal wg the cities criminal Justice System and did not require me to recuse myself.

The resolution for the intention the board to order the vacation of portion of jessie street with the ocean wide in 3 of the ordinances to establish the denounced neighborhoods with the street vacationed of alley for a total of 36 million. All right. Thank you very much someone from the Mayors Office to present on this item. Mr. Buckly. Good afternoon supervisors im jeff from the mayors staff to talk about the 51 Street Project as long as ocean wide give you a brief update or overview of the project and in addition that give you an opportunity to hear about an interesting aspect of the project which is the urban rum well have the project sponsor come up for that 3 to 5 minutes go through the concept and the need and i think you have a array of city staff to take any questions you may have on the amend e item, however, large or Going Forward i wanted to start off by talking about the project so 41 street is a mixed use project at the Northeast Corner of first street and mission for one million square feet of total office space 200 and 64 units, one hundred and 69 room hotel and ground floor retail and pub opted open space to two towers this space received its approval from the Planning Commission on may 5th whos before you the street vacation of own alley and a portion of jessie street and also in addition to that some of the details of the downtown Preservation Fund ill be happy to with you on so the main reason for the legislation before you the vacation of jessie which is necessary in order to build the administrator tower to the height contemplated in the district plan that was adopted in 2012 the plan is a comprehensive vision for shaping and growth in the Southern Side of downtown the Transit Center focuses on regional growth towards downtown San Francisco and in a sustainable manner for the sculpting thought you tower and the extra and improvements to the streets and the open space as the parks downtown in order to make that happen it includes the clarification of parcels in the area to increase height limits and including a landmark tower from the Transit Center from one thousand feet and several other nearby sites with 6 to 8 hundred and 50 feet the plan leverages the intent to generate revenue for the transportation facilities including the support for the new Transit Center and downtowns improvements of the sidewalks and other infrastructure to create a public realm so some of the think interesting aspects of this project just so youre aware of that includes some of the one time fees that are generated from the project again this is not the issue about you but important to understand the project in general estimated to generate one and 17 million fees those fees are die construction dot net for an issuance of november 2016 this is about one . 9 million for downtown parks and 2. 9 million for school and childcare millions and sustainability fee and talk about did Affordable Housing consultant in addition to the downtown lease but the Transit Center is 11 want 9 with the transportation street is 3747 so the issue before you is the street and authorization to create the new downtown Preservation Fund so the i wanted to first talk about with you the purchase for jessie alley so this is the Purchase Price is 22 million, about 22. 6 to be exact providing the closings doesnt occur beyond or before the Effective Date which will be 33 million plus and in addition to that in partial consideration the citys agreement to sell the property the buyer will produce the 20 percent inclusionary fees that maybe applicable under the San Francisco planning code section to 33 percent Affordable Housing fee the Affordable Housing payment as it is known and the city will waiver the portion the Downtown Program as well for this the fee buyer will pay for the project under the planning code but weve essentially down is create this fund and fees and kept them one a mile radius to the principle project and dictated those for purposes of acquisition and in that one mile area that fund will be in use for no less than 10 years and acquire administrative code by the Mayors Office of Community Development that is a brief discussion i think the purpose for us being here i want to invite a representative of the project sponsor to come up for about 3 to 5 minutes to discuss the urban Room Development and how it relates to the street vacation for the context. Thank you, mr. Buckley welcome. Good afternoon, supervisors with reuben, junius rose representing the project sponsor for the ocean wide center were going to keep our focus specifically on the items the street vacation component and the ordinances that allows the direction of some of the Affordable Housing Development Impact fees for the community in the big picture the project has approve pattersons within the past month including the Planning Commission approval on may 5th when the entitlements were approved it includes the 5 thousand square feet of area that is fronting jesz i didnt street and the additional were here for the recommendation on the vacation component and as i said on the use of required and voluntary Affordable Housing impact fee payments so quickly i want to mention on the street vacation the fact were asking to vacate or with the existing streets and mean well have access public assess around the project prompt and in reality you think that is the case with respect to jessie street terminates at one street and in conjunction with the street vacation creating a number of easements that allows the project assess for a pedestrian cross and throughout the site so one of the key reasons this is this the driving the open room a pubically assessable open space that is on first street and the dedicated parts of jessie street within the urn area the second component before you is the creation of downtown neighborhoods Preservation Fund that allows the project job linkage fee and the 20 percent of Affordable Housing fee and an additional 13 percent Affordable Housing to be directed and used within a mile radius of the site more Affordable Housing purposes so i the now im going to turn it over to to my colleague b that will talk about the visible where the streets radio located our entire team is here and available to answer any questions you may have. Hello. Hello, im carmen yee for the ocean wide project can we switch so were talking about the benefit quite a low the project is part of transbay redevelopment we called the transit redevelopment plan the district plan and two towers two hundred and 65 units actually unit one hundred and 69 hotel and one office space that the whole project is about mixed use project so the project at the corner of Mission Street on the north and west corner and the basics Design Concept we tried to bring create a friendly place for the city so to achieve that together with surrounding environment with the Transbay Center the south tower and alley we tried to implement our project and to keep the passages through jessie street and the alley and create a connection from the mission to jessie to the hotel so inside of the passage is Transit Development plan we add more and also, we exhaustive jessie center of the middleincome passenger way so the towers are over the heart of the urban space we call the urban room this is the designation for the neighborhood for the visitors and the users for this site so everyone has a friendly open to the Public Open Space and have the fully assess passage to connect to it. So heres an animation we wanted to show you so take into account of time to load. So the basically concept is a traditionally central core which leads and on the ground floor to the floor is open and jessie street turned 90 degrees by doing that we have a fully opened pedestrian friendly your honor, room space for the city for the neighborhood and for the project itself so the project that we mentioned the jessie streets turned 90 streets all of jessie will keep open for Emergency Vehicle and long trucks so this is the design idea for this your own room one hundred and 16 by 200 plus with a high 6 feet 8 feet the urban room will have the functioning side to besides the setting back and you can do performance and gathering and Art Exhibition and night things and this you urban room is open for the public and again jessie street turns 90 feet, however, keeping the inteshgz through the urban design and through the security cars to carefully maintain the city for this urban use so this is a diagram that shows the vacation this is basically partial of the jessie street and partial of the ed dom alley as it is by doing this we will achieve 3 goals one we create a landmark tower with benefits for the city, second we achieve the much enriched to the pedestrian Middle Passage for the neighborhood and third we achieve the 26 thousand open space which for the opens for the city for the neighbors and for the folks. Thats it. Okay. Thank you. Mr. Buckly something in closing. We are here and have city staff to answer any questions. I dont have any supervisor wiener didnt have any id like to go straight to Public Comment and call of ms. Christie wong calling names .

Id like to make a motion to move forward Workers Compensation without objection additional business to come before this body . Theres no further business. Thank you this meeting is adjourned im your host of culturewire, and today, here at electric works in San Francisco. Nice to see you today. Thanks for inviting us in and showing us your amazing facility today. My pleasure. How long has electric works been around . Electric works has been in San Francisco since the beginning of 2007. We moved here from brisbane from our old innovation. We do printmaking, gallery shows, and we have a fabulous retail store where there are lots of fun things to find. We will look at all of that as we walk around. It is incredible to me how many Different Things you do. How is it you identify that San Francisco was in need of all these Different Services . It came from stepping out of graduate school in 1972. I wrote a little thing about how this is an idea, how our world should work. It should have printmaking, archiving, a gallery. It should have a retail store. In 1972, i wanted to have art sales, pointofsale at the grocery store. So you go through the manifesto. With the bay area should have. You are making art incredibly accessible in so many different ways, so that is a good segue. Lets take a walk around the facilities. Here we are in your gallery space. Can you tell me about the current show . The current show is jeff chadsey. He is working on mylar velum, a smooth, beautiful drawing surface. I do not know anyone that draws as well as he does. It is perfect, following the contours and making the shape of the body. Your gallery represents artists from all over, not just the bay area, an artist that work in a lot of different media. How to use some of what you look for in artists you represent . It is dependent on people are confident with their materials. That is a really important thing. There is enough stuff in the world already. You also have in his current show an artist who makes sculpture out of some really interesting types of materials. Lets go over and take a look at that. Here we are in a smaller space. Project gallery. Artists used the parameters of this space to find relationships between the work that is not out in the big gallery. I noticed a lot of artists doing really sitespecific work. This is a pile of balloons, something that is so familiar, like a childs balloon. In this proportion, suddenly, it becomes something out of a dream. Or a nightmare. May be a nightmare. This one over here is even harder to figure out what the initial material is. This is made out of puffy paint. Often, kids use it to decorate their clothes. She has made all these lines of paint. For the pieces we are looking at, is there a core of foam or something in the middle of these pieces that she built on top of . Im not telling. Ah, a secret. This silver is aluminum foil, crumbled of aluminum foil. Her aesthetic is very much that quiet, japanese spatial thing that i really admire. Their attention to the materiality of the things of the world. This is a nice juxtaposition you have going on right now. You have a more established artists alongside and emerging artists. Is that something important to you as well . Very important in this space, to have artists who really have not shown much. Now lets look at other aspects of electric works operation. Lets go to the bookstore. Ok. In all seriousness, here we are in your store. This is the first space you encounter when you come in off the street. It has evolved since you open here into the most amazingly curious selection of things. This was the project for the berkeley art museum. It was this is from william wileys retrospective, when he got up onstage to sing a song, 270 people put on the cat. It is not just a bookstore. It is a store. Can you talk us through some of your favorites . These are made in china, but they are made out of cattails. These pieces of here, you have a whale head and various animals and their health over there, and they are jewelry. We do fund raisers for nonprofits, so we are doing a project for the magic theater, so there are some pretty funny cartoons. They are probably not for prime time. You sort of have a kind of holistic relationship where you might do merchandise in the store that promotes their work and practice, and also, prince for them. Maybe we should go back and look at the print operation now. Lets go. Before we go into the print shop, i noticed some incredible items you have talked back here. What are we standing in front of . This is william wiley, only one earth. This is a print edition. There are only eight total, and what we wanted to do was expand the idea of printmaking. This is really an art object. There we go. Besides the punball machine, what do you produce in limited edition . There is the slot machine. If you win the super jackpot, you have saved the world. What about work . The right design, it was three volumes with lithographs in each volume. The cab of count dracula with 20 lithographs inside and lined with beaver fur. Really special. Lets move on to the print shop. Ok. The core of what we do is making things. This is an example. This is a print project that will be a fundraiser for the contemporary music players. We decided to put it in the portfolio so you could either frame at or have it on your bookshelf. So nonprofits can come to you, not just visual are nonprofits, but just nonprofits can come to you, and you will produce prints for them to sell, and the profits, they can keep. The return on investment is usually four times to 10 times the amount of investment. This is for the bio reserve in mexico, and this is one of the artists we represent. You also make prints for the artists that you represent. Over here are some large prints by a phenomenal artist. He writes these beautiful things. Anyone who has told you paradise is a book of rules is has only appeared through the windows. This is from all over coffee. We are contract printers for all kinds of organizations all across the country. Thank you very much for showing us around today. I really appreciate you taking the time to let me get better acquainted with the operation and also to share with our culturewire team. Good morning, everyone.
