For anotherables, etc. And also have a empower push with the industry to educate people that are working in this so they can educate the consumers in having Higher Standards of education and people working in the agency in conjunction with the other institutions city college, oak street etc. I came to the task force as an educator and a cancer survivor both to show it is incredibly helpful for us to have access to cannabis in addition to be effective you need to have education standards in place thank you very much good evening my name is corey a administrator from San Francisco who represents the unified School Districts im responsible for the Educational Program funded by the education ill share some information about cannabis and legalization how we are working together to with mindful of exposure and health and education and support education in the Public Schools and vocal and Job Opportunities for the graduates ill share good news we are funded actually with the compliance of federal funds that is important to know that state and local funds for Health Education and services and the other Educational Services out of sf and ucsf so nationally the youth survey we survey 7 ac and 9 graders on their use of substances and their behaviors you ask about 40 percent plus young people tried marijuana in high school in San Francisco were about 28 percent and middle school 9 percent we dont have national fingers but working to have more on the top of exposure at the same survey captured the number of students that are 2005 of students in high schools and in 201523. 8 percent a decrease so some areas we Work Together in education and comprehensive services and sort of support for our students is we have a sort of a disproportionate use of marijuana in our nontraditional schools about 12 percent on gastro campus again, we surveyed the students and the numbers are not great as in number an amount in quantity the numbers of students that report seeing marijuana generally in their lives is 6 point plus and Mission High School is 17. 4 in high school so folks like to see folks not using this age group and choosing to roll focus on their health and education with that, our health and education we have the proper support of services to address any needs and their families as well so we support our students opportunity for you know beyond college and beyond high school and also to make sure they are space adequate housing for them to continue their education thank you. Good evening supervisors my name is bashar im representing the neighborhood coercion and past wanting of an association and the chair the the Compliance Committee we have on our board i volunteered for this task force i felt the committee had a learning curve we have 3 mcd approved on the same night the Committee Found there is loopholes in the existing mcd we want to see this addressed i hope to have more information to take back to my district ill ask the board of supervisors to place importance on the concerns where will that be legal to smoke and are the burgundy checks adequate and how to remove the retailer not in combines or compliance with the cbo school the biggest issues before the neighborhood and the majority of Association Members and the individual ive spoken are concerned about the clustering in selfdefense under a ground for the board of education will be the green zone a lot of people didnt want to advance the green sown 3 years the supervisor alavlos talked about they have the green zones expand we agree with that but at the time, no supervisor willing to do that its been suggested by my neighborhood anyone that is as an mcd will keep the taxes earned and that money goes to the Police Department for their needs and also to require we want to go indirectly to the supervisor of that district so for the Civic Improvement if any supervisor wants to talk with me about that ill be happy to meet you in your office thank you. Hello supervisors i practice business law and talk with the land use about land use and any ideas our Retail Locations and rail Zoning District and nonretail locates for retail location gray draw a comparison to the medical rules first pointing out this cannabis is made possible by age groups to bring the medical cannabis into 2014 for a Retail Locations of medical retailer the Planning Commission recommended 6 hundred feet from schools by comparison for adult use retail we recommend that retail 6 hundred feet from schools and the buffers exist but boss both of those are measured by path of travel we know that San Francisco is a dense city and sometimes you walk around the block to get to the door depends on to say the street line will be a measure of distances as a path of travel hearsay evidence location to retail zoning the zoning process should vary from one zone and not be the same for all zones we recommended the zone process be more rigorous and like a commercial district we can have conditional use authorization and less rigorous like downtown and Zoning District have notice finally for nonretail use for the manufacturer the cannabis use the planning code to have the zones for schools because they make sense. Thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors noimdz a jennifer im with the local 648 im in the labor seat train and education is something that San Francisco values the task force recommend a training component for that workers like an educated Apprenticeship Program some residents of San Francisco are over locked they dont have a College Degree they can have classroom train to retain those good jobs the apprenticeship is a proven track record of success been around a long time Human Resources apprenticeship was one of the organizations that protected the minority and women in the industry apprenticeship is about working with business all work sites benefit there are certify practices and have a standardized training San Francisco workers that have Apprenticeship Training and education will not only understand the workplace theyll be getting the train and skills and compensation this San Francisco, california do there a cannabis Apprenticeship Committee approved at the state level working with city college and other educators to implement this program thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors im laura thomas with the policy alliance and the seat on the task force we have xhoeven communications with the job train we spoke about ways to create opportunities for enterpriseship and our recommendations address to overcome some of the barriers that are experienced by people trying to get employment but as ownership stake in a Legal Cannabis industry we see the negotiation of marijuana as an opportunity to repair some of the damage done in the country and in the city to serve and we recommendations around reducing the barriers and creating priority rights or preferences for those harmed by the war on drugs and trying to aid the economic barriers including the access to capita with loans as a way to increase access to the business using some of the existing Small Business support models to give people who previously been working in the economy the support they need to become a legal entity under prop 64 and including pathways like amnesty programs for people working in the ilLegal Industry to move into a new Legal Industry overall we think this is an opportunity for the board of supervisors and the city and county of San Francisco to be creative in a racial and social frame to address the harms and move forward to create an industry that is responsive to the people that have been working in the industry and those who experienced harms related to the war on drugs this is a great opportunity to move forward into Something Different and hear from the communities thank you. Thank you, ms. Thomas. Next speaker. Hello im director jocelyn kane sitting often the task force and asked to come up here to talk about the Agency Oversight and i wanted to take the opportunity i think that working at the Entertainment Commission kind of a baby agency of city been around 20003 this is a complicated issue and made a simple slide to show up with on the task forces came up with the board should consider a stand alone agency like a Commission Like ours that allows you to have trantsdz and a place for people to you know express their needs and certainly to do the outreach that is necessary the board should consider the stand alone agency but no commission and look for policy guidance where or the board can consider using part of an existing agency to do this work as well i think this obviously within a year theres a lot more discussion but it is something that from the get go certainly i think helps you to locate how well work on the issues from seat to address some of the concerns youll hear from the neighborhoods so are you going to come up and handle the rest of this. Thank you jocelyn. Under the regulation and city framework the key issue as jocelyn laid out the more important issue will we get started right away since a one year deadline by the state and if so what or what are the priorities so we can find the political and the private will to move forward in a regulation you will find that the second year of the task force will be dedicated to developing specific policies around your direction as to how we should precede it is our recommendations that we start with nonretail you should start with the part of this entire industry subscribed by proposition 64 through the licenses types start with those nonretail licenses with the testing and production, transportation lets start with those relatively i think visible population and move forward create a city Agency Framework for this and begin to feed to that Agency Regulations how they can create a permit scheme so if you are a testing lab and want to at cannabis to our testing benefit a direct and simple way to political to this body so add cannabis as one of our testing ingredients the same is true for transportation and distribution. Cultivation we have in place cultivation approval process put together by the did you get and improve and codify in doing so take the non retail of cannabis industry and set it up four success we know the difficult part of this process is when we get into neighborhood by neighborhood discussion as to where something belongs i love medical cannabis just not next to any school just not next to where i go to work and where i walk by not next to the bus stop or the place i buy coffee at that point we are going to need to have a robust discussion the last 6 months of this year should be dedicated to public hearings and discussion how we are going to expand medical cannabis and then how will we develop a way to con assume cannabis what is called by the legislation the Consumption Lab this is retrofication like a box you can only go into that when our 21 and thats your Cannabis Consumption experience San Franciscos has always said we have a San Francisco way we would like to create with the help of the board of supervisors and the community consumption lounge experiences socialization is taught you our experiences between Community Members can be exchanged if you go and youre part of a platform of 5 individuals and the one cannabis yours there are 3 people that like to drink within and one person if drink or smoke you feel comfortable in that consumption area thats the San Francisco way consumption we can get through that that the first year we ask you respect the report with the recommendations we feel are important in those policy areas you give us the direction to begin immediately to traffic ticket a Regulatory Framework that you can take to the committee and begin do work on developing the actual regulations in terms of no cultivation this is how we are doing it based on the experience the last 5 years we need to make those 3 adjustment and present to you an online for regulations on how to do cannabis chief scotttion that goes to the public process and gets adapted into regulation that gives assurance it that part of business and will apply to the state we take one by one the various license types until we get to retail and the last 6 months of year to deal with retail we spent a lot of time going out into the neighborhood and found out it is clustering that is the most important i dont think as the growth lie down how most people think they think of it as a path of travel and should we consider that to be able to determine where theyre too close to the public use thats itself recommendations we would like to bring forward and ask for your participation in year two. Thank you very much i have questions. Well go to Public Comment and go back to you guys for questions. Thank you for your presentations very thoughtful and highlevel and got the entire one year recommendation and weve got a nice cheat sheet other slides with the presentation that were given .

Can i have one more minute. Sorry. Two minutes for everyone. My name is a teresa with the San Francisco call center im here on behalf of any neighbors and friends and family and San Francisco community and Public Center merchant and they maintain the family for the the Asian Alliance and San Francisco shanghai and community oppose any additional medical cannabis dispensary also asking all of you to create law to stop marijuana use in San Francisco as you may know the population of asian people in San Francisco is about 40 percent prudent person is about four asian so minority of chp people but many of them are limited in english do understand the mcd procedure not even the marijuana you know the reaction we have many people in our center come for help, help them to voice their concerns the Planning Commission departments have less of the Community Outreach nonenglish speaking residents we have 34 mcd in San Francisco already we think it is enough federal law say this is an illegal drug i agree mcd one thousand feet rereaction should be one thousand plus not just 6 hundred feet the task force is one and 8 is pages how about in chinese language reaction marijuana should not be in the commercial corridor commercial corridor have the Residential Community i think residential reaction marijuana should be in Industrial Area with the warehouse they have tough law for recreation marijuana we ask that you up to the time initial 18 months moratorium on all ncd in all mcd district we are going to have all the fight with the mcd already thank you. Thank you very much. Next speaker, please. Madam chair and supervisor aim joann interest who is now practicing a native san franciscan been here 5 generations first, id like to commend the task force what it is attempting to do to guide the legislature weve seen what others jurisdictions are accomplished in colorado and oregon passed the reaction and medical cannabis trying to fashion in terms of their legislation i feel we as san franciscans that invented medical marijuana need to set the high water marks for the rest of country and look to the board i thank the rest of the nation is looking at how we develop our bylaws. Is there any additional Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed so to the Task Force Members you certainly heard from the concerns about just many things consumption and oversight location i think that we have a lot of work to do to educate people the Greater Community mr. Terrance i like your suggests to take of months to educate and teresa talked about the state law is we as San Francisco have a fifth amendments youll have to take to sacramento youll be the lone voice in sacramento looking to repeal prop 64 youll have to take to the voters and a truly uphill battle we need to understand what are people afraid of when it comes to consumption so that we can begin to address the truth or separate the truth 2 f from the lies the myth from the fear so we can move forward and make sure that businesses that are operating theyre in compliance with the law supervisor sheehy please. So first, i wanted to thank everyone on the commission did such interpretation work and struck that we shifted to a discussion of the stigma of marijuana use and reminder the documents that came up that showed Richard Nixon purposing enforced heavily marijuana laws to the target africanamericans and the Youth Movement at the time in the early 70s that has led to incredible rate of criminalization it is completely unfair and unjust personally ive been involved with medical cannabis since 199 of my friend and with all due respect it is dennis to the experience of the successes boyfriend jonathan saw and dennis is a colleague i dont think harvey milk wouldnt have done this without dennis but dense saw the benefit of cannabis use and jonathan was dying from aids and then really started the medical Cannabis Group and there were 12 one was the church of market and this Fabulous Club 5 stories was is where the law firm is it served and offices at the time, no mitigations ive been a patient since 97 when i was diagnosed and at first there was not tolerance within the first generation drug that was extremely toxic and strange that the least toxic drug was the most prohibited then because the toxics of the drugs i got a disease one of the foe conditions are random in his control showing the controlling the pain that is associated with that disease conducted at the usf by the way, general hospitals so i think that one part to continue the work of this commission to i think we need to be prepared when proposition 64 comes both effect one of the things after 2030 we didnt have the ground work i think that all of us will be benefited were not left with the wild west situation with bad actors and none knowing what is going on we have to think about the stigma it reminds me as a gay man and the experience with something living with hiv and not unlikely that cannabis what about equality with the industry i personally have beened from pain and assistance in being able to take drugs it saved my life i hope as we move forward we can listen to each other i understand the neighborhoods concerns and should be mindful but think that this is an opportunity to do role what is been almost thirty or 40 years cost many, many people their freedom. Thank you, thank you for the reality check we appreciate it. I have a couple of questions briefly i want to hear from peck the youth you go activation is he here still maybe someone what speak to say she highlighted there was a decrease in a in numbers i think that i would sure what that number decrease and didnt explain what or the cause is of the decrease i dont know if you can provide some color. Maam, supervisor ill have to get back to i wasnt aware the decrease and what the causality was and no problem. And then jennifer you in our presentation talked about you came to the rules committee he recommended the local is usc w still taking the lead in the cannabis city. They were the first union to cut the cannabis workers in needing before the change the Public Opinion so the usc wushgs working with the governor and i know your central wanting has met with him with the Apprenticeship Committee and on the state level we are in load as is regulation passed and come into the regulated system that all the workers exist have protection they know theyre right and have these good jobs no matter what happened there will be workings we want the workers to be protected as they communitybased introduce the many changes. I was wondering which automobile was stepping up and taking the lead i know the tooerms have been involved i dont know the technology planets i guess. Thats material product so, yes there are other units involved. Who are they. I believe the usc w and the tooermz are the main unions and in other states seiu. I dont know. I dont of any other questions its looks like were done you guys are a lot of work ahead of you, we can roll up our sleeves xhesh if we could make a motion to continue this item we can continue this item. Madam chair. As a matter of housekeeping. Ill move to continue the item. Without objection as well. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, mr. Clerk further business. Theres no further business. Thank you very welcome to the San FranciscoPlanning Commission id like to remind the members of the audience that the commission does not tolerate disruptions of any kind.

Commissioner president fong commissioner Vice President richards commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner koppel and commissioner melgar and commissioner moore. Commissioners commissioners, the first item on your agenda is consideration of items proposed for continuance item o1 29th avenue conditional use authorization proposed for continuance to march 9. Next lion street has been withdrawn as item 3 hoffman avenue also withdrawn. Okay any Public Comment on the items proposed for continuan continuance. Hello commissioners tidal can i have the overhead, please . This is a list of directives that came from the january 30th hearing before the commission and i would like to review ill read what i had the project sponsor has 4 months to implement the june 30th, 2016, Commission Directives in light of the directives with respect to the process im rewriting this memo to better state the facts i think this is a more fitting. Jonas maybe to the project. I believe youre speaking of 437 hoffman. My apologies singles is june 20th, 2016, hearing the project was revised to keep the Christmas Tree the garage was moved to the south side instead of eliminated the height of the building will be increased rather than reduced part of breeze for light in the lower unit and chip from the northly neighborhood reducing the massing around the nellie property windows. Maam, i dont mean to interrupt you. If you what a withdrawal of the matter. Im trying ms. Swedish will follow me id like to introduce commissioners to the chances that ive seen before this withdrawal i understand a withdrawal the roof after the first 15 feet from the facade so sloped and with the buildings increased overall height is enhances the loss of sunshine and enhances the loss of sunshine to the nellie neighborhoods in addition to encourage cooperation by providing assess to the rear yard via the lower units the project is to actuate the excess height to the neighboring homes and from the street view and sure the character of the neighborhood i wanted to pack that clear if in the 4 months the directives have not been take into consideration thank you. Is the actual conditional use case has been withdrawn. The cu was withdrawn director rahaim because a hearing by the Planning Commission and it was continued they can only withdraw through the content of the Planning Commission so from the commission choose to come pull this matter avenue do consent calendar and make a motion to take action there was a public hearing. Not the consent calendar. The continuance calendar excuse me hi good afternoon this project at 437 hoffman had twists and turns 3 dr requesters all immediate neighbors filed this the project was changed at the sponsors why and the hearings were tund continued to the spring of 2016 the Commission Shall i wait until they turn off their phones on june the commission heard the cu a on the screen to revise the project the commission was to review those on october 27th but instead the sponsor asked for the commission denied october 27th and you set a hearing for today but now the project it is withdrawn a new 311 was issued the Staff Reports ms. Tran sent to be the 311 will be issued in order to be fair to the neighbors and more importantly for the process im asking the commission to grant the fee waiver for the 3 dr requesters if at the sign off please consider that today and please consultant with the City Attorney if you need to at the hearing today since this is youre only chance to weigh in on the withdrawal i assume youll allow the withdrawal you shouldnt you gave directives and passionate about our response to the project that people on hoffman avenue and my friend janet filed over a year ago this is something you need to consider a lot of craziness and one more thing since i have time in 2008, when it was commissioners war was here this project had a universe 2 to 2 a nice singlefamily home and still can be youll talk about later now a crazy thing ill say the plans the second unit is below the garage ill leave it at that thank you very much. Is there any additional Public Comment . On the items proposed for continuance. Okay Public Comment is closed. I think commissioner johnson question. I move to continue it. You couldnt hear you. Were on the continuance calendar move to continue item 1 he are we talking about item 3. Okay. So hang on commissioner Vice President richards. If im really confused so it there another project whats the jurisdiction why what the cu i. Mr. Tom can clarify. Planning Department Staff filing in for mr. Washington so my understanding from the planner handling the case the item before you is the withdrawal of cu and staff has determined this is didnt constitute and demolition therefore a cu is not required it is applicable the concerns by the neighbor can be addressed from the dr was filed during the 311 once it goes out for the next week or so that that give the Community Time to file the dr and things can be addressed during that phase. So the point being still a project but no longer with the redesign requires the cu so a newspaper 311 will get out and if i may speak to the original dr fees have been refainted thats my understanding with the staff and the project planner so with regard to the refund the refund was issued any dr will be subject to the standard fee. So with other dr. Well be back with a dr a cu is no longer required. One other clarifying question can we go to the calculations in the future with would that apply. It cu. It depends on the ability commissioner moore. Could we get a confirmation that the cu cost were removed this is a fair question weve estimating on it. I want to ask the project planner to speak. All fees have been refunded. Probably commissioners what in in front of the acceptance of withdrawal of the application. Commissioner paskinjordjo we dont need to vote. In this case, i think you do. In most cases generally speaking the content for the withdrawal essential this is a request to withdraw doss because it has been before you unlike other withdrawals. So pardon me item 2 is withdrawn. Thats right as so i make a motion to continue item 1 as proposed march 9 and to accept the withdrawal for item 3. And 2. And 2 essentially. Theoretically because it is on your agenda. Oh, okay item 2 and 3. Sorry. A little bit confusing sorry. Commissioner hillis second. Commissioner Vice President richards. One other question it is what it is it is part cu a cu or not we have no choice the project will go come back and they can file a dr if we dont by the time let it die whats the point of that i dont get it. Theyll no longer trigger the cu a but you can act on the conditional use authorization that was before you on june 30th. Commissioner hillis. Thats all right. I was going to reiterate the same thing were on the same plate where we take it or allow it to be withdrawn it will be the same project. Okay there is a motion that has been seconded to continue item 1 as proposed and accept the withdrawal for items two and three. Commissioner hillis. Commissioner johnson commissioner koppel. Commissioner melgar exposure commissioner Vice President richards and commissioner president fong. So moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 7 to zero and places us under our consent calendar are considered to be routine may be acted upon by a single roll call vote of the commission. There will be no separate discussion of these items unless a member of the commission, the public, or staff so requests removed from the consent calendar and considered as a separate item at this or a future hearing.

Rahaim and have not heard back i hope we get the Fire Department and the Planning Department together to Start Talking about how we can make those arts places safer and preserve the pdr spaces from development and further displacement felt community of artists that makes San Francisco great most of the unsafe places are places of last resort people are doubling and tripling up a couple of raids from the Fire Department and i think without gettingal task force to address how to make those places save so the whole block didnt burn down the goal to find a solution and not have displacement happen to hopefully, you guys are more receptive i hope you call a task force well bring our Community Activists from the Arts Community to such a as soon as it happens and also which i brought up several times the notices to the community the 311 and 312 and dr notices dont give a lot of information not what types of uses their cryptic and ask 80s notices get more information to the public and we can respond and act accordingly my box of information will help in a more timely manner thank you. Thank you. Good afternoon, commissioners congratulations commissioner hillis and commissioner Vice President richards and thank you commissioner president fong for out going commissioner president fong for your service a busy time so thank you here today to talk about the way the city does Environmental Review we were at the he and she hearing a few weeks ago and a problem with the eir some are general to the way you do Environmental Review and with the transportation analysis and in a nut shell youre not using current data not your best knowledge to do do Environmental Review one the alternatives youve studied in the eir the only study is one alternative with regards to the parking so the code compliant was between zero Parking Spaces and. 25 with the dwelling unit only evaluated one. 5 doubling the amount so in our alternative analysis you need to look at the right alternative on parking because youre asked to do two things youre asked to say when our certifying the eir you study all the feasible alternatives as of right and the other thing we asked you to do the parking requires and cu when you approve the cu youll be asked to fine the car trips are not creating an undue impact and if you dont analysis that youll not have a sound space to make that understanding the other way they do the parking analysis when this eir comes back to you, you you know from the research asbestos in the parking the more autopsy trip; right . Unfortunately, the way it is analyzed the parking has no impact an autopsy trips from the 1960s that is rattling around in the environmental process so you s and data the other thing ive been in a position like on a body that has a certificates eir youll be asked to say that is correct when you know and the people serving you know that is false the test analysis will be a bomb no transportation analysis guiles your departments work; right . Not legislative but not the responsibility of your commission to adopt we would like to see you review this in light of what you timely and displaced it not updated in its long overdue. Good afternoon im here to say a few words about a project on the calendar for neeblgs next week next week on boulevard before i say that congratulations on election of new commissioner president and Vice President and given the textbook example of transition of power laughter so basically, you guys about i think two weeks ago. Heard in the port less than a mile away from the location that i think was a 3 hour hearing at the end you decided to wait to get more information thats basically, what were asking today to not go over that next week another 3 hour hearing just asking to postpone so the public didnt have to come out and spend your time and our time and not have an answer at the end i sent a letter one section of letter the cannabis will have a much broader appeal as evidence the outgoing bruno avenue legalization didnt necessarily mean at a neighborhood level and he i believe that commissioner Vice President richards that was about the percentages of passages in the city 25 percent notable but in Visitacion Valley inaudible basically, all 50 percent some increases that well know for the legalization of machinery for the i think you saw that will two or three weeks ago and see that next week if this goes forward i have a position but want to ask that postpone it and give the community more time to think about it and discuss it and get the recommendations for the recreation all use how it effects the use here thank you, again will be a productive discussion but thank you, thank you next speaker. Congratulations president commissioner hillis and good afternoon, commissioners im marlene a retired Public School teacher and a long time volunteer thank you for allowing us to make a request for this regarding the mcd for the avenue to september 2017 in addition to several concerned citizens that licenses to your commission ive sent emails to all the commissioners in the San Francisco department as well as any Priority Mail to mr. Commissioner president fong in my letter i referred to the following any long commitment to the community and lack of communication from the project sponsor and the project sponsor refused to meet and the lack of transparency from the Property Owner and the project sponsor and that postponement limits this effort and avoids at the january 5, 2015, hearing regarding bruno avenue you commissioners decided to postpone the final decision until september to have issues clarified in consideration of the commissioner time and the requirement the residents take a day off to attend the hearing we hope youll postpone to 15 as well the start of later than you think year the rooster of the Asian Pacific islanders will be occupied for at least several days before presenting the homes and preparing the chores please honor our altercation and postpone the hearings to september given the fact that oriental ncd project was filed in 2015 or 2015 and given the absence of communication to our community during the 3 months it is reasonable for us to assume to accept the december 29, 2016, postponement request originally from russel a long time neighbor he just spoke to show transparent and accountability the project sponsor elevated systems should hold the discussion Meetings Convention to the community and have a trafrlt so it is incongruous rat to have the residents attend a meeting scheduled before january 26th actually as late as yesterday and last night i received relevant information to this case please allow me want to investigate so i have our attention as you may know the architectal firm set the meeting one week from the hearing date thank you your time is up. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello, im San FranciscoCommunity Empowerment center on bruno avenue and congratulations commissioner hillis and thank you commissioner president fong for the past you know you did a good job. I come to request the commissioner to postpone on the mcd on bay store boulevard and hold all the ncd sill september because based on based on the january 5th on bruno im so sorry commissioner Vice President richards made the comments on the january 5th on bruno avenue commissioner Vice President richards proposed a motion to continue the hearing until San Francisco regulations and the proposition 64 california recently passed the recreation marijuana if we approve this today what worries me i dont know what we are approving for the future proposition 64 gives the county did ability to make more policy and more liberal and retrofication the second thing as said on january 26th this is the very important date as a Chinese New Year so on lets the Chinese New Year the commission didnt want to see three hundred to 4 hundred families without you know new years eve diner they have to come here to raise their voices i propose to postpone the ncd and all the ncd until you have a clear message thank you so much. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello hi speaking foreign language. im translating for her. Im a neighbor next to the 2442 bayshore project ive been there over 20 years the ncd project has not been doing a transparent job on december 29th they only noted us on the day before the 28 and second for the hearing that is supposed to take place on the 26 of this month we only noticed us recently because this is a heavy immigrant community a lot of people dont understand english or have the english ability we need a lot of time to have input to notify the neighborhood and get the input from in and this site has been nearby so therefore i dont think they have been doing a transparency job because also the site is nearby a few Community Centers and Family Centers and programs this is not the right place to be as well as childcare not the right place to be in addition Chinese New Year will be two days away from january the 26 everyone will be busy doing House Cleaning cleaning up things in their home not a good time to from come befonew years eve we hope to have more time to understand the issue and work with the project. speaking foreign language. yeah, we hope you will delay the project until september 21st. Next speaker im. Sorry. Im going to speak a couple of things im jose phone weve written emails and submitted letters with the project packet and have here in solidarity to support the Chinese Community and ask you delay this to september 21st, 2015 just like you have done for the project on bruno avenue with the same reasoning we need to wait for the Marijuana Task force and the site is 15 blocks away from san bruno avenue and we are hoping we respect our time and the time of the community to avoid the same experience of mobiletion two weeks ago and again and again, we hear childcare are not a personal use and not in consideration that is a big concern we recycle you to delay that so we have more time to look at the planning code thank you very much and congratulations to president hillis and commissioner president fong for your dedication and service. Thank you, michelle mr. Kohl. A different topic congratulations first of all, to commissioner hillis and continue commissioner Vice President richards in our steady hand commissioner president fong over the last couple of years im here to talk about the state density bonus you had an entertaining hearing on the south of market which id like to think you were uncomfortable and not happy about the situation youre hands were tied it we have a lot of fun and had around the holiday and santa claus came earlier but state density bonus in some respect Patrick Kennedy might have done us a favor to look at the state density bonus is providing and needs to be recaptured in the inclusionary going through an update you might have received a memo from the department but provide i have copies of some materials that came from the last we called a Technical Advisory Committee on december 19 for those of us were around during the holidays spent our monday night in the meeting director rahaim was there it shows simple math we cant want to erode the inclusionary housing standards take on 7 percent to our inclusionary to equalize the value that the state density bonus provides to a typical project as you can see the numbers from the Controllers Office not from this is from their consultants a project ever 18 percent requirement be effective repudiation by the state density bonus of 15 percent thats the project in september in for the record to keep that even 24 requirement on this project because of 501 as you may know the recommendations to have a different inclusionary for rental and condo on condo they came in higher at the baseline from 27 to recapture it is a big delta our state density bonus is might have have good use but in terms of a Public Benefit unless you recapture that youre giving a massive benefit to the private sector this is a matrix nice of our consultant you can pick a point on the inclusionary and walk across to fourth how to capture of Density Bonus Program it is good stuff well see you next month for your hearing on the ordinance. Is there any additional Public Comment . Hello commissioners so i want to speak on that ncd this is not indoors to the bayshore but we heard about the bay shoreline. Continued those until september of this year many factors that led you to continue including a lax of clarification we heard theyre waiting for clarification from you commissioners but were concerned a moratorium it in place we want to know if other ncds what appear before you and receive approval thats it thank you. Thank you. Ms. Swedish do you want to speak you have time. We dont believe you are congratulations youre free commissioner president fong. Free. laughter . Congratulations i love your hair much better than that you know whose. Youre great youre great id rather have ythan i was t the board of appeals last night and no report because i think the project that was there would not come before you theyve not filed a dr thats an unfortunate thing if that was a 6 to 7 thousand square feet project in addition to a historic structure the problem was that adjacent there were two houses on the lot the rear yard of the adjacent house to a cottage and the Foundation Issues 25 feet all that it raised again four me the issues of the r d g how we need that because the mashlt has changed the developers are creating a almost generic market whether that is excavation can i have the overhead . But we were worried about about the neighbor she may have that where it in door becomes the out door on that lot so the traditional mid block is impacted and the other thing there were huge windows 10 feet if from hers and plus awning ground unit pursue this is a project that actually behind me that took a dr on 2014 and thats one hundred and 10 feet away from me at night lit up like a Christmas Tree when the project was before you the glazing was smaller they changed it they can do thats why we hopefully this year well get into the r d gs the market is changing and demand are changing they need to be looked at in this great new world what happens in the eastern neighborhoods thank you and congratulations. Thank you, ms. Swishing any general Public Comment seeing none, commissioner Vice President richards. Oh, to the ncd issue i know we talked with director rahaim we this commission is looking for the values on what the department has imposed and the relationship between the medical i understand maybe a forth coming. Certainly commissioners youll have a memo that describes where we think the regulations are going and cant speak for the future board of supervisors but the way the regulations are likely to be at least put forward this will be identified as a separate use from medical cannabis so if thats the case if that move forward that in that form youll not not be an automatic transfer that would be possibly and in other words, medical cannabis dispensary couldnt be converted to an adult use from the regulations move forward the adult use will be nodding a separate use and didnt know that last week weve put that in a memo again, i cant speak for the future board but this is very likely in our opinion to be the recommendations of the medical cannabis and just so you know weve looked at the Holiday Schedule in the past that the hearings that new years eve we didnt cancel next weeks hearing thank you next item. Through the chair i was reluctant to talk about the future hearing through the chair back to Commission Matters on future agenda weve received a request from the Mayors Office to consider housing owners together with the spiritualal and the them together to do that we will need to rinse state the february 23rd hearing on the current schedule has been cancelled so if commissioners youre available and like to add that to youre hearing schedule we should do that through a motion and vote. Any comments. Commissioner johnson. Thank you is the mike on. Sorry i realize the mike was off the whole time. Jonas do we need to take Public Comment on that. It is 23 of february me comment on the run stating of february 23rd seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Commissioner johnson. Thank you very much yes, we are appears an important item we need to take up i move we restore the february 23rd hearing date. Before we call the question on that one will this be a special hearing. Were reinstating it today a regular hearing and it will be likely that we include a couple of informational items commissioner Vice President richards indicate ill be out on february 22nd and move to that calendar and have an open calendar if you choose to take up other mares. Very good commissioner president fong. Commissioner johnson commissioner koppel commissioner melgar exposure. Commissioner Vice President richards and wanting hillis so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously. On your regular calendar familyfriendly housing an informational presentation. Good afternoon, commissioners with the planning Department Staff and we are going to present our report that was in your packet housing with families of with children one page of corrections and it is also the new version on the website as well well pass that out and in a second introduce the team who is definitely been a collaborative effort sheila and ann that worked on the report and annie is here and will help out with the sro work were talking about with here is raul fernandez, there is calling names from the sro families announced collaborative and we talked about them hes here to answer questions we want to move to supervisor yee and let i am introduce. Welcome supervisor yee. Thank you good afternoon. I want to thank you for hearing this item an important issue for myself and i want to especially thank those commissioners i discussed this with it felt pretty good the feedback and i want to start off by saying there are statutes youre familiar with this and certainly want to mention that mainly im sure the staff will mention that also i want the listening audience to also know about this status currently the percentage of households that actually have children in San Francisco is that that 18 percent nationally about 29 percent were although there in regards to the percentage of children in the city that are 18 and under the percentage is 13. 4 and basically, what it is nationally is much higher than that the choice to were almost half of the National Norman wasnt that always, always the saying case in 1960, 25 percent of the population so what we see a slow maybe not so slow but quicker in climate warming so pretty rapidly in terms of decrease and im thinking well, you know there are places all over the world theyre voting new unit and i see families with children live in those types of housing and it is something i was curious i didnt notices that was happening for us in San Francisco as much and so i was talking to a reporter this morning about this particular issue i see the analogy of that i say well my two daughters reached college age and moved out and my wife was happy and smiling and turned to me one day and said you know something maybe we should get rid of some things i go what you are you talking about. Theyre not living here nobody is using the beds wait a minute you realize well not want them to come back if they need to be here if we removed the beds it is telling them by the way, youre not welcome here anymore she said well when i think about that maybe youre right for me is an matter of are were going to welcome families with children or not are were going to have the infrastructure that in the city to live and housing is one of the big factors and Housing Affordability but not basically building the family i think affordable when it comes to Affordable Housing people are building these and do a good job the marketrate not so good this is my motivation to push this and theres a lot of moving parts how that we got here today with that report and about 3 years ago i basically said we have to do something about this i was on the school board. Three years ago, i had gut feelings about things but no data i asked the National Research firm to look at the issue and so what does it mean in regards to number one the trends of what happened where we always like this they said no what do you mean when cities and location losses the children and i think what we came up with pretty much supporting any gut feelings we know that when we cannot attract families with children in our city that proposes a challenge to the cities ability it is the families that stabilize the neighborhood and the family is build in neighborhoods we experience a collective economic and cultural loss over the course of the generations i know the staff will probably dive into that a little bit so i started that conversation with director rahaim a four years and director rahaim what about Family Housing and thats with that dysfunction i realized we didnt have a definition of Family Housing so i starting asking developers you get two bedrooms and thats a Family Housing or three bedrooms we know that is important but eventually not the only thing that is important as long as people purchase a unit or lease a unit in highrise they have three bedrooms their children are gone it is more important than having bedrooms and from that i was able to talk to other people and realized my staff researched and are we only the only crazy people to have formal language around housing and several other cities throughout the u. S. Already had that and why not San Francisco and to the directors credit he said yeah do this so in 2015 i introduced resolution to ask for a report and for the staff to come up with recommendations and you know the final answer to me what it is for me to stimulate the destruction around those issues and drive future policies around those issues we can say that we do care about our families the other thing that happened besides including policy and interim discusses in 2014 when i was putting together the proposition for the Childrens Fund which we allocated funding for the Public Education and Enrichment Fund that totals one and thirty to 150 million a year people were focused on that piece and the Mayors Office and myself felt that was important to add another impersonate into the proposition that was the creations creation of the Children Council and the purpose of that is to have and to have most of departments within the city and the school board and the Community Come together to look at what is impacting families and children and to actively come up with a vision for the city so that all of us can make an agreement to line up behind that he and set goals and see if we can do better for our children and families to me i want it to be more aggressive not only addressing what is existing but the challenge from me to them the council was try to address are you satisfied with the lowest percentage of children dont do anything but if you want to do better in San Francisco we want to do better the challenge how to reverse the percentage to go upwards thats in the works and well have a hearing so several things are happening, in fact, feels like a cultural change sins the sgrin of this distribution director rahaim even with another agenda item well hear today for the tdm part of that discussion has included the family issues family and children issues in which many of those things are coming from this particular report im proud the staff has done a really good job in bringing out the issues and not just having a selfcontained discussion but basically working with other areas at this time where people begin to talk about family and children and United States of america three years ago when people tubed housing it is all about affordability i dont want anybody to be misguided i was going to talk away from that that is necessary but one thing that was discussed housing for families and children this is sort of how at least my office has approached this im happy were lessor to be able to discuss this and even when i talk about cultural change in this discussion it is not just city departments but developers are beginning to talk about this i introduced one idea a policy change in regards to all be hearing that soon in regards to the eastern neighborhoods with the developers they choose to do only two bedrooms im looking ways to motivate more of three bedrooms that came from a developer im talking to another developer about other ideas and im excited ill not expose it thats what is happening people are starting to talk to each other about this im looking forward to in the future in working with not only the commissioners the staff but also the vendors verpz developers i want to thank director rahaim he pretty much got what i was talking about and also want to thank the staff that is working on it because it i believe that all parents; right . Mostly parents sorry and having parents work on this with staff makes is big difference theyre easy to talk to them about those things if you were a parents you could get it but not as rapidly as People Living through that so thank you to susan and sheila is that; right . And eddy for theyre really fine work on this document here today so whats next this policy argument is a discussion and really move forward to look at new policies i submitted and preamble to that report so people can actually what my vision is im not sure that is included but hopefully included in the future and this is the other thing i want to make sure i mention i dont want anybody to think again that housing by itself is going to reverse this trend it is one of the facility issues it is an important issue i guess people are wondering why do you talk about schools and why not talk about this and that and why are you talking about childcare by the way, im talking about childcare a lot this is one of the things we need to address and what are the recommendations that i want to request from the commission to adopt the include the framework and definition that familyfriendly housing in the general plan so we can reference it as a conversation with the Housing Development so id love to work with the commission on those things and other policies in the near future and im looking forward to working with staff on having discussions one of the things youll find briefing is a lot of good ideas i strongly agree with some and dont agree with some but thats okay not about whether i agree or disagree but have a lot on the table for discussion to see what makes sense for San Francisco so in closing i want to say that the children we we have people say that all the time children are our future then we as city Civic Leaders must plan for the future of the children i want to thank you for your attention thank you supervisor yee. Are you going to stay around for the hearing. We will defer. Thanks everyone okay. So i want to take a minute and step back and remember you on the Citywide Program and then in another quick minute on the broader thinking of what we are proposing for the future for a final initiatiamilyfriendly in this is the 5 Year Work Program in the division of creating a affordable in a different city a resilient and connected and affordable Transportation System and speaking about how the Family Program fits within that we came up with a series of goals for this initiative and wanted to talk what we want to do today, well talk about the familyfriendly piece of this and commissioner has been helping us were hoping to come back in april to initiate the legislation all the work on access to parks and open space and then Transportation Options work that the Mayors Office and the da and supervisor tang initiated about School Transportation and work with the mta and applied for a grant from caltrans and keep that work going and making the transportation and how that relates specifically to children and tropt and getting the kids around ill dive into the housing initiate and so forth. So today, were talking about households of kids under the acknowled age of 18 why do the families are not here did that matter i think there are a number of benefits we outlined in the paper we wanted to talk about thinking about the sustainability of how we can get just people closer to their jobs in general and having a greater danced to go and time away from their kids and the Public Health department benefits and get around in different ways around the city and creating a city for everyone so thinking about a streetscape for users and kids and seniors and how that resonates with the city it is safer for them and safer for everybody that creates a better city overall and thinking about the diversity the Cultural Diversity how that is better for everyone and as well as having the doodles the majority of our population in San Francisco being imposed to the kids and how that benefits the school population. So as supervisor yee mentioned we have the honor with the we have a city with the fewest kids and we looked at this to see what theyre doing a quick look at our families what do by look like and their income and this is a chart that shows the barbell effect the blue line is 2000 and the red 2014 you see these two ended increasing and the dip in the middle and just how the wealthier and how the middleincome a snap between the overall population kind of dive in and look is there anything different we saw the white population of kid is increasing and the white population overall is decreasing thats the option with the asian the asian kids are decreasing in age and decreasing overall you get often we see the graft on the right and is that any different for families in San Francisco. So this is a map that is a lot of information packed into one sheet that is the number of kids and thats the number written on the map as well as the concentration of children and the population in that household i wanted to show that we often think of the south and the west of where kids are concentrated before you not loss the information that are kids in the tenderloin and downtown and rincon hill and chinatown and all the neighborhood down here as well. So where are were going next and what we think will happen that is the age range right now and as you can see we know this is the Large Population of 20 to 34 years old this is the Biggest Group one thing we wanted to look at what is next the average age have a child that 33 and whats next weve seen this group for urban amenity and walkability but in the past you know the tendency to leave once people have kids. The status needs to indicate youll see an increase in projections an increase in child population from the zero to 4 and 4 to 17 and been working with the Unified School District this is a great collaboration to dive into the data and get a picture of where the kids are in the ucsf population theyve worked with us and looked at it their projection and the Multiplier Effect of inclusionary all those things their project by project an increase in their population as well. So what do we do with all of this the two biggest things we want to look at is the affordability so a quick snap of 2015 showing about 9 percent of our unit on the market contaminate that is the minimum for bedrooms and the affordability for area medium income families this is only worse since 2015 and then just a quick discussion on the size and changing the shifting over time what we are building and how we are building when we build new units and shift to one bedrooms and a shift away from the larger stock a snapshot on the kind of units were creating so heres a couple of recommendations we have were going to walk through what we can do on minor expansions downsizing the Housing Stock and building new for families. So how can we make it easier for the minor expansions that happen when people need to add a little bit of space and lucky enough to own their home how we can make that process easier and the Housing Stock you know we noticed the blue on the bottom thats right im sorry the green is the family i cant read that it is the blue the blue is the green is the families with children option this is you see that in the sros as well as in the three bedrooms so their seven hundred families in sros right now and if you see in the three bedrooms this is a greater percentage of families without children we want to think about folks that want to downsize we dont want to have to take on to roommate what theyre a senior but options we can help to open up that housing process. A couple of ideas an idea of a smaller between something that can be done in our house over time or in a unit you imagine a separate space and decide to rent out that extra space for someone and your kids want to have it and you want to go back to that. I mentioned those are the cities we looked to for guidance vancouver and i noticed how they keep 33 percentage of the population of kids theyve seen not as high prices nickel and dimed if you maintain that kind of child population youre hoping doing something right as and then as i mentioned building new for families and what those look like an in depth look at a number of different ideas we looked at the site level the building level and the unit level and so this well pull out a couple of quick examples were hoping to see more a Research Design as we get feedback how we can make sure we have this in a better package and format so site levels thinking about the transportation discussion we had how do people get around and provide Car Solutions like that. Bike storage thinking about a need to increase the quantity of space to allow for larger bikes simple things that signal more room here for families the building level suggested better late than never the on how it is programmed what is there its uses you know what are the types uses i think we see great example in Affordable Housing youll see a site developed with the family in mind and the direct assess like yesterday direct assess to the baked and courtyard and a play structure have all the back space was used as a computer lab and thought of how families what families need to live here. And unit level characteristics all done in the report is if youre interested in diving in thinking about the daylight and a way to incentives and end larger unit by changing some of the requirements here. So the next concept in the kind of building new is this idea called the missing middle and example of a type of housing here on this graphic it may happen in San Francisco in the past but thinking about how we can provide this type of housing provide the solution for families just some examples of images of San Francisco what many looked like and what fits in with the neighborhood and provided again, just a little bit more options especially for more affordable options in the neighborhoods and then the last image is technically not doable on the screen but the lefthand side is the picture of the plays where that exists with the density is exceeded in those areas a lot of these examples on the previous slides and so showing where this always is in the city housing in the city context. So just to finalize it we want to think about the Housing Stock and the tools to make that easier for minor expansions we want to look at the situation and work with the sro alcoholic on overcrowding in sros and they have completed a report and want to work with them to take that to the next Step Learning about resident in larger units and proper incentives for opening up that Housing Stock and then this find solutions for considerations and characters we mentioned as well this idea of missing middle and where we can take that that concludes my presentation. Were all here for questions. Thank you very much opening up for Public Comment one additional speakers line up on the tv side of room tom dulling visual. Tom with livable city. Thank you for a great set of questions we look at this questions of how you can make San Francisco familyfriendly one of the thoughts we have to look at Walkable Community so the portland called that the 10 minute neighborhood when we do neighborhood planning how to make neighborhood walkable with people are children thats a great question i live in the mission on a quiet street from busy streets and some have car owners with kids and these neighborhoods are walkable you can get to the park and the playground and transit and to schools and shopping and get to the things you need changing our paradigm like how to create that you know put everybody in walking distances and also Street Safety a study by dcyf a few years ago i couldnt find the one line but families with kids why do you leave and a unit costs too much we are familiar with that the third on safe streets we note to deal with Street Safety we need a neighborhood plan and needs to be comprehensive and complete and traffic calming plastic bags and streetscape plan that goes with them to make the neighborhood not walkable walkable i see this in my neighborhood i live on a quiet street but on superintendant guerrero no families request kids none that i saw but on my street the kids play on the streets to walkable communities is important you can look at youre over policy with the administrative bulletin number one with the residential building and restrictive if you want to build rooms with the inhabit level there is a restriction like to the outside you cant have a full bath the goal to stop people from inlaw units and we can give people the flexibility how to arrange the houses you ought to allow people to convert that concludes my remarks to Living Spaces if youre family grows and start with car storage it is illegal to turn that living space into a living space you might think that the car space is not as important they should provide that. And if we convert to an the missing middle housing is faifblth a lot of cities are experimenting like portland we are having monster singlefamily homes and easy in most Zoning District for a 4 thousand or 6 thousand square feet singlefamily wow. A family of 20 living there the fact a family of 20 will not live there on rich people youre better off having a housing looking at those missing middle youll have to have more flexibility but the missing middle what about productive for San Francisco in singlefamily homes thank you. Good afternoon, commissioners president of the polk Street Association thank you for to the the department for putting together this report and as you may know im a father of too Young Children live in nob hill area and it is really hard to be a family and raise kids in the city you know it costs a lot of money first and foremost the cost of living is a big one i think ive jotted down some ideas if neighborhood folks are talked about one of the ideas of age in place a lot of folks living in the city are getting older may have more spaced than they need for example, building an adu in home so they can age in the home maybe live in that and rent out the upstairs thats a benefit once you have that adu it is rentcontrolled so i agree with mr. Dulavich on the home expansion this is a great city if you can for the record a mega 5 thousand square feet home in noah valley or someplace if a breeder Zoning District is rh2 well to is youre going to expand you need two united frankly that is better to have two 15 or 16 hundred square feet unit a than one singlefamily with the square feet so maybe some incentives to create for folks to create two bedrooms or three bedrooms with inclusionary housing we have families with two bedrooms and often two kids in the bedroom and mom and dad in other rooms like any family the notion youll not live in our home forever you may buy a condo or rent a two bedroom and be there for a couple of years and maybe have a kid and maybe move to the west side or move to the east bay or other portion i think assess to childcare is really important inclusively is trermgs expensive in the city and hard to get into a spot you know, i see the childcare downstairs for example, it is frightening in the civic center not a ton of Childcare Options i think Neighborhoods Services for families you know you want to be able to take our family out and have a remarkably priced male is twostar restaurant that is expensive one of the nice things about going out to the Richmond District have a familyfriendly affordable meal just some thoughts thank you. Thank you. Hello, i do have any tunnel relation of noah valley in a monster home i cant help that thats where i live i agree about the homes i would rather have i dont think that people want the big ones. Thrilling you cant say that the rh2 why in gods universe why put two staff united that gets me to the section 317 i have 1 down the street they took away a stacked unit put in underground a big monster home maybe that could have been two units ive got in noah valley since 198 of you have parks and especially transit and people love al invade that is two please close that loophole youll see a lot of the projects in front of you this year and take a second unit well im not an expert in real estate what with crotch condos a condo you dont have to live in that maybe a cooperative you have to live if you build 3 bedroom units and someone had a one one bedroom apartment in new york city but two bedrooms or three bedrooms apartments if people are not living there and putting their money down a safe haven or whatever think about cooperative recapturing airbnb my suggestion you give tax amnesty oh, airbnb we want to come back into the market whether a rental and again, the r e t the South West Quadrant in the mission those singlefamily homes moderate expansions not negative expansions but the one i mentioned last night at the board of appeals 6 thousand square feet and a huge kitchen this is familyfriendly maybe you cant control that but all the places are lapsed none wants to live with a young child please think about that when you talk with the developers thank you very much. Sir. Thank you, commissioners from the council of Community Housing organization i want to expend my thanks not planning Department Staff and supervisor yee so for bringing 24 before you i think an important item one of the things that sue presented a table of changes that happened in terms of types of unit mixes that are in new marketrate development our city has a stock that is historically 60 percent large familysized units but the market is producing is to see and one bedrooms theyre not a market for families and families not interested on the details about how many children there are in the city by the different income levels not tha there are is not a market but the marked that incentive lists developers to put as many unit especially there is no density limits lets pack as many studios. This is not a new issue a huge debate about that 2007 and 2008 you are the predecessors have zoning for the eastern neighborhoods that require a certain amount of two bedrooms perhaps it is time for you all to consider Something Like that citywide what is the appropriate unit mix knowing what your city has done like toronto a 10 percent unit for every development and has a wide range of development mixes. But one of the things that sue mentioned is that our Affordable Development is with family unit if you build a two bedroom or one with a den a marketrate you know that is for a family or an entertainment room or jim whatever the Affordable Housing with the inclusionary housing we built one marketrate if theyre larger units dedicated for families i know that family will move on this was brought up around our february 23rd meeting youll consider section 317 and the updates to the inclusionary housing perhaps we have a minimum unit mix as familyfriendly again thinking by a what we developed 40 percent of our family unit have two bedrooms and 20 percent of our units are three bedroom units perhaps apply the same standard to all inclusionary housing from now on thank you very much. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. I will build on fernandos contempt with the Housing Organization but give you any bona fide two kids bond and a sfgov more and one of the things that i know that commissioner melgar what relate to this as our kids get older they need more space and to the point i think we have graciously 12 hundred square feet is busting at the seems with kids but i have to through any High School Kid out of the house size matters and i want to reiterate what fernando said you see with what the market is in the reverse direction supervisor yee and everyone at city hall wants to see more families whether in their low income or middleincome the only way we get those things is intervention we have to confront from the policy stand point more housing for families well make you do it not ass inspire and cross our fingers thats a tough lift well require bold policy interventions and frer in the witness stand talked about that the fight over the three bedrooms was huge a lot of fight and police conversations we finally one quote unquote but started higher we wanted more 40 percent, 60 and loss that to 40 percent at 2s that is time to be bold and lift the bar but perhaps citywide maybe exceptions in city neighborhood but make it a familyfriendly city more than south of market and the upper market district the other issue you need to think about is the size of unit two bedrooms was a proxy and now 6 hundred and seven hundred didnt make a difference you need to figure out bedroom size we dont have a choice were so told how big the configuration because folks based on impeccable evidence from a functionality to have familyfriendly housing maybe you should apply those standards to marketrate housing because this is political rhetorical but only happens with strong policies were happy to work with the commission. Thank you to the staff and supervisor yee for kicking this off. Next speaker ive been before you several times when our approving the exceptions for the rear yard requirements i came here with a stack of them usually the same information were looking at Larger Development he get all the noticed and one. 15 or 20 notices of monster homes taking out rear yard none in the mission when you take away the rear yard no place for the familyfriendly kids to go you do it week after week approving the exemptions that take away the rear yard reminded you have a power to do that without changes is asking for exceptions thank you. Thank you good morning corey smith on behalf of the bicycle coalition. I want to reiterate the appreciation to the staff and the colleagues has kids and this is a high priority for him and the commission Going Forward i think pretty much everything was stated i want to reiterate number one taking a holistic view not just judge about the housing but the need for open space and have that become available that is Golden Gate Park to get more housing around Golden Gate Park the other aspect that was brought up by a speaker and peter correctly reminds me the details are critical 80 percent of two bedrooms and three bedrooms required the legislation is pending at land use and the not one of the details that was overly discussed but give it some it out. Thank you. Is there any additional Public Comment on item seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Commissioner johnson thank you very much i guess were all talking about happy birthday there will be one tomorrow. clapping. i made it. So im super excited to be here this is a really excited report thank you supervisor yee and his office and the staff for the report and more recently with me on childcare legislation as local and state level i think some of the changes will go a right thing way for childcare and be cheaper with regards this is a great discussion and i would love to sort of in summary take supervisor yee up on his wish that we would craft a policy in the general plan i was starting to be supervisor yee inspired me with legislation on childcare with the inclusionary unit and really did research and saw not a lot that targeted familyfriendly and children acceptable facilities in our general plan the general plan has a whole a lot of the seconds and not a lot of familyfriendly units are ridiculous we need to change that in summary if i can put them in categories the first is in terms of both in the report with supervisor yee as advocated for and what i heard Public Comment is about creating more unit; right . There is tyler lots of activities some further along than others about an adu legislation that hopefully over time work into a woo to create more unit we heard a lot of Public Comment about unit mix standards and what can we do in various ways when i definitely agree with and not today but in the air no pun at the end height; right . Talking about creating higher unit size taking up more space for the unit you have to find ways to make the blocks fit so i dont think we have had a discussion without talking about heights and then creating more united we think this is fair ill not spend a lot of time but the other piece was about making the unit there continental existing for families and i feel there is something that we can also as a city find ways to address do we need to create some sort of vacancies or tax unit people have in them when youre in Public Housing not to be 2, 3, or 4 people in a one bedroom apartment so obviously were not going to that far with publicprivate property but how is that we can accommodate things are things like age in placeing and what we think about for now is sort of building a neighborhood design for families if so what i took away from the report how we should be looking at to make their way dots into the planning code the conversations that came up late last year we were talking about buy right housing a potential state law that came down and other changes became clear we get super clear about the types of buildings we want to see in the city so i was existed to see some of the ideas for the unit design is actually not unit count but size a percentage of multiple bedroom unit the base and beyond that that is a number of other Building Design issues that combo play with you talk about families like dine of common space and commercial and residential space how theyre separated open space and rear yard space lots of things we consider how two bedrooms and three bedrooms are im excited to dive more deeply into those considerations and hopefully make their way into the planning code and Building Code and the neighborhood design like creating more units is actually lots of things on pathways to assess are happening for example, lots of bedrooms in walkable neighborhood and the tdm well talk about in a minute and where open space things like that and take a measure of what were currently doing and see if we need additional things appreciate it thank you to everyone for coming out today. Commissioner president fong. Thank you want to thank supervisor yee for bringing this up weve thought about that a little bit and hyper focused on Affordable Housing and smaller unit but the pendulum swing i think i think your lives change and people leave and become by nesters in San Francisco in the last couple of years single folks are moved into the city and someone gets pregnant and hopefully theyll stay here and keeping ahead of that curve as supervisor yee initiated this to stay ahead and provide the housing given an opportunity to stay in San Francisco im absolutely in support of throughout some of the bigger projects been an advocate of misrepresent larger unit that are two or three or 4 bedroom unit and combined with a pathway door to expand if you want to rent the unit next door and this is very important not to think about those unite as a totality but how schools how far away schools and the system of schools and hospitals and we can have a reach to those units on my mind is mission bay ill be curious any schools are planned we put in a bunch of housing and heads are shaking but want to make sure we are thinking one step ahead of each other but in support thank you, again, for bringing up that up. Thank you commissioner Vice President richards.
