Madame clerk, any announcements for us today. Yes, please science all Electronic Devices and submit all speaker cards to the clerk. Items acted upon today may be appear on the [speaker not board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise state ladies and gentlemen, please turn your cell phones off or on vibrate. Item 1 is a motion amending the mallive code for the surplus city property. Colleagues this item was continued from our recessed meeting last wednesday because of amendments made by the committee. If there are no other comments from the Committee Members would i i would like to take Public Comment on item 1. So lets go ahead and open up. Well start with Public Comment. Please line up to this podium right here. A courtesy reminder everyone will have two minutes to speak. Will you hear a soft bell, indicating that you have 30 seconds left in your 2minute allotment. Mr. Bowman, the floor is yours thank you very much, madame chair and Committee Members. Chris bowman, this is my third hearing on the surplus public lands ordinance. I would make a request to the committee, that if you should go forward and you have six vote and you replace the other measure that is the placesetter. That you put the original, the complete current ordinance basically sections 114 and then you make the amendments to that. So that the voters can see what the amendments are within the context of the entire chapter. Which is 23a. There are a number of sections including the Advisory Committee and surplus housing that are not included within the chapter, and i think that for truth and to the voters that you need to have it in there. The other thing im not concern, if the committee is aware, that the times for implementing the new list, the Surplus Property has been delayed by eight months. So the implementation would begin on november 1st of 1916. Because it says november 1st. The election is november 3rd. So its going to be another year afterwards. And Everything Else is basically delayed by basically seven to eight months. I have 30 seconds left. Also, there is other problems that i have with the area of the priorities. In several sections say the priority is for homeless housing. And for people who are families who are in overcrowded conditions, but on the other hand, you stated the priority will be for Affordable Housing going up to 120 of the ami. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon supervisors, commissioners, christoph, president of the island residents association. Im not 100 positive that we are part of your surplus housing process. But i wanted to raise the concern that island residents are being evicted. Im sorry, sir, could you please turn your cell phones off. All cell phones must be off. I will ask the sheriff to escort you out if your phone goes out. Weaver trying to conduct business here. Would you please reset the gentlemans clock. Appreciate it, on Yerba Buena Island you are well aware that were currently being evicted, which you have been made of ware of a long time ago us to move to Treasure Island and the concern that im expressing today that me and my current residents have the great concern we will not be able to move back to what is our community on Yerba Buena Island. Personally i have lived there over 16 years and some of you have heard me speak here several times before, the grave concern that we have now is that the public land, yerba buena land is slated to be developed for prime and highpriced real estate. We kind ofly ask your consideration to leave behind a few properties, a few lots for current residents to move back into what has become again our community where we have raised our families over the past up to 16 years. Some of us have paid up to half a Million Dollars in rent there and the way it looks now, the proposal for the redevelopment does not include any kind of should i say considerations for current residents . I humbly submit for your request, for your consideration, my request to have these residents be able to move back on to Yerba Buena Island on to properties that we can actually afford. The way it looks now that the properties slated for development is skyrocketing and none of the residents currently living there will be able to afford up to 2,000 a square foot and we kindly ask your consideration to pressure and ask the developers to make a few a few unit as valuable for those living there and paying rent ontime over the last 16 years. Thank you very much. Thank you. Is there any other member of the public that would like to speak on item no. 1 . Okay. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed at this time. [ gavel ] colleagues may i have a motion to send this item forward as a Committee Report with a positive recommendation tomorrows full board meeting. Supervisor kim, im sorry you wanted to make a few remarks. Actually i was going to make the motion to move this forward with positive recommendation, but i want to thank my colleagues on the land use committee, supervisor cohen and supervisor wiener for joining as coauthors for the ordinance that will prioritize the building of Affordable Housing on lands and properties that are owned by the city, but doesnt fulfill a distinct city use and also want to recognize supervisor avalos, who is a cosponsor as well. I would like to make the notion move this forwards a Committee Report with positive recommendation. Thank you. Seeing that there is no objection without objection this motion passesment [ gavel ] madame clerk, could you please call item no. 2. Item no. 2 is an ordinance amending the public works code to require contractor parking plan [ 689 ] thank you very much. Last year both supervisor farrell and i began working on similar legislation to address conflicts and concerns that neighbors were having with a significant amount of construction, parking being taken up in their neighborhoods. We have since merged two pieces of legislation to create a piece that you are going to be considering today. This ordinance responds to numerous complaints. I have received over the last year from residents who are living with several construction sites all around them. By requiring a contractor to develop a construction parking plan, we will be encouraging them to think creatively about how to minimize the parking impacts on the neighborhood. Additionally, there will be a document that residents can use to help hold contractors accountability if they are taking up more space than they need or if they have expected or if they have expected the amount of time that they are permitted to take up in Parking Spaces. The southeastern neighborhoods are bearing the brunt of the growth in San Francisco and one thing that is true that we all share San Franciscos limited parking resources. And so i believe that this legislation really does a good job of striking the right balance between facilitating important Housing Construction in our city, but also requiring contractors to be more thoughtful about how their projects impact the neighborhoods. The im going now turn over to supervisor farrell to see if he has any opening remarks thank you, chair cohen and thank you for your partnership on this matter. Colleagues its no surprise that all of the construction happening in our city is having a Significant Impact on the quality of life in our city. I hear complaints on a daily basis from residents frustrated by the scarce parking resources taken by construction parking permits in our neighborhoods. [tprufrt ]ion also mounts when permanent spaces can sit empt empty for days at a time and i know everybody has experience with that on their own city blocks. Over 250 permits are obtained every week. I do believe that wes a city can be a lot more prohabitive in leting our residents know about the impacts that are going to happen in their neighborhoods. So given these frustrations, i teamed up with chair cohen and was joined by cosponsors wiener and breed to mandate Construction Permit plans as a condition to receiving any temporary street space occupancy permit for construction work that requests either more that one parking space over the course of 34 months excuse me, three or four months. The legislation mandates and is they its one of the key things that i heard from my residents is that permitted onstreet parking spots not used by 4 00 p. M. Will return back to the general public. Frustration that i heard people returning home at work from 57 p. M. Timeframe and those not being able to use the spaces when they are vacant all day and clearly not used in the evenings. So it makes submission of parking plans. The proponents of the parking plan include the following the number of Parking Spaces and rational, the average number of employees anticipated to be onsite each day. The timing and fadesing of the project, and the requirement of an update from the contractor at a midpoint of the project to notify the department of any expected changes. Whether its possibly feasible to use opportunity for carpooling or other offsite parking arangement suches as nearby garbages and that onstreet parking is valuable to the general public by 4 00 p. M. If the space has gob unused. And other information effect that is deemed valuable for understanding the impact of the project only the neighborhood or neighborhood parking supply. And since the introduction of this legislation supervisor christensen was also engaged with us on this the issue, given the impact she was seen in district and i will let her explain the key components that she fought for. I believe its a simp, straight forward piece of legislationings that will have positive impacts throughout all of our neighborhoods and residents. My office worked with dpw, sfmta to solicit their feedback and i want to thank them for their involvement and engagement and in front of us is a package that both departments are in agreement with and supportive of and i believe that representatives from both departments are here to answer any questions. Requiring this construction parking plan will help our residents and our city get a better grip on the impact of onstreet parking street losses during the construction project hours for neighborhoods and will help to free up muchneeded additional spaces for residents. I think forward to the discussion on the committee and hopefully for everyones support. Thank you, supervisor farrell. Supervisor farrell [kphepbgs ]ed mentioned that dpw staff is here and in the interest of time i have asked that they refrain from making a representation. Supervisor christensen followed by supervisor wiener. Thank you, madame chair. Everybody crossing our city by cars and parking transit and even walking have been impacted by the construction. We sympathize with those who are building and repairing our city. Were not trying to impede their efforts or to unfairly burden them. But this legislation and the amendments that i have proposed recognizes that one, the scarcity of onstreet parking in our city. And secondly, the impact that impeded access has for those with limited mobility, for garbage collection and other deliveries, and that this obstruction comes at a price. Ive asked supervisors farrell and cohen, to whom im grateful for introducing this legislation, to include commercial districts in the legislation. Because that construction is sometimes as or more impactful than that in residential plus the commercial construction often tends to spill over into and the amendment puts a fairer price on the valuable street parking. And also helps cover the cost of administrating the program, realizing this is going to require some added effort. So again, supervisors farrell and cohen, thank you for doing this and i would hope for approval today. Thank you very much. Supervisor wiener. Thank you. I also want to thank my colleagues for taking the lead on this legislation, which is long overdue. You know, when you dont have a lots of Construction Activity going on, can you get away with a little bit of loosy goosy rules around parking being taken up with Construction Projects, but given the level of construction that were seeing in the city right now, i think we have to be a lot smarter how we allocate these spots. We are in this time in San Francisco with the congestion in the city and the competition for parking, its getting harder and harder for people to park. We have to make the most efficient use of the Parking Spaces that we have. And this will help us to do that. We have seen some real abuses. I have one particular location in my district where there has been a huge dumpster taking up multiple parking spots on and off for years. So it ties in with some of the neverending Construction Projects that we see. If you want to have a neverending construction project, we can have a conversation about that, but you should not be taking up parking spot because you cant get it together to finish your construction project. So this is good legislation and i look forward to moving it out of committee. Thank you very much. Lets take Public Comment ot this time for item no. 2. I have one speaker card, mr. Don immins. Thank you. Well the members of the board of supervisors have covered most of the issues i was going to mention. As a resident and board member im here to represent the feelings of our group. And we support this legislation wholeheartedly. Having watched some of these Construction Projects go on for 24 years, and have two or three on a block is highly disruptive as you all have mentioned to the residents, and the people with the legitimate parking permits that they paid for. A lot of these permits are used basically for commuter parker for the workers. I think the legitimate use is for materials and delivers of the parking permits and with the Commuter Parking taking up the parking spots that are permitted, then the delivery trucks just doublepark and further disrupt and exacerbate the situation. Thats very common to see concrete trucks, delivery trucks from lumber companies, plumbing and so forth that have to doublepark to get their space. And then that is when they are being used and a lot of times as you mentioned 6 00 on a saturday afternoon they are not being used for construction. So another issue is many of these parking permit signs are not taken down on a timely basis after they have been expired and therefore, they are not being used for construction and they are not being used for residential parking. So i will just summarize by saying that i heartily support the passage of this legislation. Thank you. Thank you very much. We appreciate that support. Are there any other members of the public that would like to speak at this time on item 2 . Seeing none, Public Comment is going to be closed. [ gavel ] colleagues, i would like to move that we forward this item to the full board with a positive recommendation. Would i like to second that and i would like to add my name as cosponsor and thank the sponsors for their wock on work on this. Thank you, supervisor kim. Glad you are joining us. Without objection that motion passes. Thank you. Thank you, supervisor farrell. Madame clerk, could you call items3 and 4 together. Yes, item 3 is an ordinance amending the planning and administrative codes for construction of accessory dwelling unitss in district 3 and item no. 4 is an ordinance amending the planning and administrative codes to allow construction of accessory dwelling units in district 8. Thank you so much. Supervisor wiener and supervisor christensen are the authors the item and i would like to off them a moment to offer opening remarks thank you very much, madame chair. I wont repeat the opening remarks that i provided last week. This is important legislation that expands on the castro inlaw legislation and seismic inlaw legislation that i authored last year and earlier this year and i want to thank supervisor christensen for expanding the legislation to her district. The legislationion im offering expands this to all district 8. Inlaw units are a key part of our overall solution in terms of having more housing in San Francisco to meet the needs of our growing city. Inlaw units are the most affordable types of nonsubsidized housing and as we look for a lot of different ways of addressing our housing crisis, inlaw units are certainly one piece of the puzzle. This is modest, yet important legislation that will create more housing, that will create new rentcontrolled units. There is Convention Wisdom its impossible to create new rentcontrol units that you can only lose them. This legislation demonstrates that you can add new rent controlled units and it will do so in districts 3 and 8. Colleagues i ask for your support. I know we have had some amendments last week that i did not support and i hope thatquial well have additional discussion around those amendments today. We need to make sure what happens is that people actually build those units. If you just have a law that sits there and no one is building, than that is a problem. Thank you, colleagues. Supervisor christensen, any comments that you would like to make . Im grateful to supervisor wiener for his leadership on this issue and happy to add district 3 to the districts that would consider this program. We have been stuck in district 3 how to respond to the housing crisis. We have a lot of people in our neighborhoods, seniors people with limited mobility, especially who find our hills and stairs difficult. The fact that the allowing of these auddus will, as
