Child Care Planning and advisory council. I am here to speak in favor of the child care facilities because there is a huge requirement in the city. We have currently just on the citys low income list 3,000 children who we have no space for. We have no facilities for. It is one of the Biggest Challenges that the city is facing in terms of being able to provide adequate child care. One of the things that is especially desirable about this facility that it is on the ground floor. That means we would be our people would be able to serve infants and young toddlers who would be about three months probably to 18 months. Currently in two of our facilities and we are opening up another one in the fall, but we cannot serve infants and toddlers because they are not on the ground floor. There is a very big need just within our program. We have 110 children on the wait list for infants and young toddlers. You can see that there is a great need and kind of one of my mottos we can never do enough for
Able to get folks downtown quickly on the t, then the need for parking wouldnt be there. We understand that the lots there are full. Like many San Francisco neighborhoods to get a parking spot in this area you need to drive around. I have that situation. I had a car until three years ago when i said it is a pain in the butt.

Parking spots are homes for people. At the end of the day it does frankly suck that is a tradeoff we have to figure out because parking does take up space. When trying to figure out these crazy priorities in the city, there is a lot of give and take. We absolutely understand that the desire for more parking at the site, but when looking at everything and looking at the big picture, we would argue building more homes should take priority over those requests. We ask that you do
Yards of the Caesar Chavez homes. We also had to solve for runoff issues leading down to the north. Under current conditions, the winter rains have saturated overlaying soft soils and surface water runs down the rear yard and into the homes below. Our approach was to integrate site drainage and storm Water Management solutions and gather water from the roof and put them into a central cistern. It presented significant fire and life saving challenges. We worked with several areas for the following provisions. Red, no parking zone in front is thats it. You can finish. No parking zone in the front. New fire hydrant. Wide 5 1 2 foot pedestrian walkway. And fire rated construction, higher standard and sprinklers and sites throughout and safe dispersal area in the middle. Every partee is a small pedestrian hillside community. We take a cue from the gables on the street. Bring these into the midblock and face them north downtown. The materials is modern and differential to local form, wood si
