Full lot width development and requires no side yards. With regard to neighborhood character and context, the addition would not be visible from the public rightofway. However, the project proposes durable high quality residential scale materials such as painted woodsiding and metal wood windows for both vertical and horizontal elements of the project. In conclusion, the Department Finds the project to be consistent with the residential Design Guidelines and does not contain or he create any exceptional or extraordinary circumstances ~. The Department Recommends that the commission not take dr and approve the project as revised. That concludes my presentation. Thank you. Dr requestor, your team has five minutes. [speaker not understood], and my wife and i live at 122 18th avenue. Thank you for allowing us to voice our remaining concerns regarding the proposed remodel of 126 18th avenue. My wife and her family have lived in this home for over 35 years. Erin and i have lived there since
Gordon . I think that i share what some have shared the support for the project as we see today and the hope for the remaining very similar in the future and we ask that when this psych permit is issued that we are before the project you know gets its permit that we can have it back to us to see and we have done that in the past where the director shared with us the new designs and plans, and i think that it is innovative and the land dedication and the on site affordable and having a former board member and aware of the challenges that that organization has faced with the brick and mortar space and hope that it be a model. Some of those merchants could actually live in that area. I am familiar with the concourse and i am doing a large gala, i was sad when we picked the space we didnt know what it was going to be demolished and i understand the point to that. Not to say that we would not have used the concourse, but that could be a place that we could use it in the future, it is unfort
Its like exponentially for people who are formerly incarcerated that then want to go to the next step. Theyre not going to be able to afford sf state most likely or the private universities. So, the only access theyll have is city college. And if we remain true in our commitment and our goal that we really want to do everything we can to tackle recidivism, then city college in my opinion is the strategy where that next step has frankly been denied so far. So, i look forward to working with certainly the city college community, the board of supervisors, and i think its time the criminal Justice System be more vocal in this discussion of us vigorously defend and vigorously bolster city college stations in San Francisco. Thank you. Thank you. applause thank you, sheriff mirkarimi. Hi, my name is [speaker not understood] wallace, im an esl teacher at the [speaker not understood] city college three blocks away at eddy street. Malia cohen, thank you for sponsoring this.

Degree and my future and, you know, i dont know any other Guidance Program like the one at city college in the state. It would be devastating for me to lose the opportunity that that program provides. I mean, it provides a safety net for me as a student, to be able to get my books, to get housing assistance, to get transportation assistance, and thats just one of the programs that ccsf has to offer. I mean, this school is a gem. I mean, we are the model school for the nation. Thank you. applause thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors. My name is [speaker not understood] simmons and i am the [speaker not understood] president of downtown campus. I am here on behalf of almost 10,000 students and also on behalf of the 85,000 students. I would like to speak about our students who are immigrants who need city college so much. As a native speaker for esl, for lowincome people, for people that struggle in jobs and [speaker not understood] courses to better their lives and better their jobs, a
Much for your support today. applause thank you. Next speaker. Hi, supervisors. Thank you, supervisor cohen, for holding this hearing and supervisor avalos. My name is dennis [speaker not understood]. By the way, i went to city college three years, 1957 to 1960. And then later in the middle of my printing trades career, i decided i wanted to see if i could do Something Else so i went back to study physiology which was available to me. But thats not what im here for. I think you guys know because youve heard it all, that this is a political fight not an education fight. Its a political fight to hold onto this ability to have this kind of capacity to offer. What really is the only working Class Institution in San Francisco that serves more than 90,000 adults here, and many of them are working full time or half time. So, the question to you is because i cant figure it out, is who can change this decision . Who do we put pressure on, aside from [speaker not understood] and meetings and hea
