Bit more invited to discuss the options. Thank you. I would also urge the members of the public who stated concerns today to make contact with the representatives of usf that were here today to continue the conversation, with mary woods on the Student Housing project in particular. Again, that project will come to us and we will look at the project on its own merits in the future. So, seeing no more comment from commissioners, i close the public hearing. Very good, commissioners. Shall we move on . Commissioner, it will place you on item 10, a item 9 has already been considered and taken out of order, for case no. 2013. 1896t is planning code amendments related to production, distribution, and repair uses. Those members of the public could leave the room quietly, we would appreciate thats as we continue with our hearing. Good evening, commissioners. Steve wertheim, Planning Department staff here to talk about our pdr legislation. Thanks for having us back again. Im going to introduce s
This institutional master plan does significant amounts of disclosure and description of what it does ~, and the messageseses we are getting from the public are really quite mixed. But that is at this moment not as much of our concern except to encourage all of you to come closer together as you move forward because otherwise i think it will create insurmountable difficulties when it really come for us to look at those determinants by which we approve or support the approval or ask for modifications of a project. And i think this is the time to come closer and indeed move forward together. So, i think all comments are on the table as equally important comments for, against, or in between. And the only thing i would like to ask when it is directed towards your Planning Team the diagrams which indicate the areas of where your future project would happen are drawn as very specific building outlines which create specific responses to people and look at them as buildings rather than as diag
Its uninforcible and its a real hamper to these Light Industrial business he. You should be zoning for thing like impact and noise vibration outside the space. So, could have gone even further in some of these areas in terms of rationalizing uses. My big concern is transportation. You know, we were involved in a will the of eastern neighborhoods planning. We never contemplated large scale office uses in these industrial districts. The eir s. Didnt address that. The train pour thaition planning didnt address that ~. So, the provision of this that i have a problem with is the provision that will allow these large new Office Buildings in industrial neighborhoods. It means one of two things. Let me take a step back and talk about city policy. Current city policy for the most part says large concentrations of office should be in areas that are well served by the Regional Transit system. I. E. , downtown, other areas like downtown. We have very limited commuter parking. Thats been our strate
Congestion in neighborhoods. We could potentially, you know, limit access to these office jobs for people on transit. It runs contrary to city policy. It it runs contrary to good sense. So, thats provision which allows these large new Office Buildings is one that you need to look at from a transportation lens. We havent done that. Theres been no environmentval review to Transportation Planning around this and that needs to happen before that provision can go forward. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, commissioners, president wu. My name is Gabriel Medina and im with the [speaker not understood] agency, mela. Ive been working 40 year [speaker not understood]. And i want to thank supervisor campos and supervisor cohens office for bringing us into this discussion. I know this work has been going on for 18 months. We have just recently been getting involved in this in the last maybe less than two months. I guess we recognize that manufacturing is very important for a an alternative pathway
Modifications of a project. And i think this is the time to come closer and indeed move forward together. So, i think all comments are on the table as equally important comments for, against, or in between. And the only thing i would like to ask when it is directed towards your Planning Team the diagrams which indicate the areas of where your future project would happen are drawn as very specific building outlines which create specific responses to people and look at them as buildings rather than as diagrams. [speaker not understood] can happen and then there are alternative ways of how a program can configure itself as simulated building footprints or zones within those shaded areas. And i think for the sake of having a broader communication or platform for communication, i would suggest there is some Additional Information be provided of other alternatives exist to provide and locate buildings. Because this is a very definite stand you are taking and i understand why you are doing th
