Thanks for coming my name is [inaudible] im with the citys office of economic and Workforce Development i want to welcome you all to the ribboncutting for the Daggett Plaza. They say good things come to those who wait. So i think in this case really good things come to those who wait a really long time. This is been a Long Time Coming and were really happy to finally be here. I want to start out by introducing some various people and organizations within the city and our Community Partners that made this project come to life. You never knowlooking out at this beautiful park but long ago this part of town was part of the bait another shallow water. Because of that, requirements of the public trust for waterfront land we still apply to this parcel about a year ago this was a really challenging project to make happen. But thankfully here we are and theres many Important Computers to the project that are here today. If you them will be speaking to you and i just want to introduce a few peo
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
Modifications of a project. And i think this is the time to come closer and indeed move forward together.

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
Technical, i dont want to go into much more detail now, but we would like to bring this back to you also to the hpc in the near future to talk about this work weve done around individual resources because we know a larger conversation of how this can be applied beyond japantown and the other neighborhoods. So, in addition to looking at what the resources were, we of course spent a lot of time thinking about what tools we could use to support those resources. We hired [speaker not understood] consulting who organized and analyzed a list of potential tools that were known. We reviewed this list with the community and oewd to make sure it was thorough and accurate. All that information is on our website. Most of the tools went up into j chess, others did not. Impact fees which are common in other neighborhoods, there is no up zoning proposed in this neighborhood. So, it is impractical to impose impact fees here which could be used elsewhere. So, what went into the j chess is a list of 19
