The building on the right is three story Single Family. I can go into more detail. The long and short the building is not bigger front or front, a few inches here and there. Taller by 13 feet to add 7 bedrooms and additional Single Family housing dwelling unit rather. This is designed for the homeowners who have a few words to say. I am lydia.

This is a request for discretionary review of Building Permit application 20180816 a three story rear addition and conversion of ground floor Storage Space to create 775 square feet of dwelling unit to create a twostory two family dwelling. The Historic Resource is category p. Dr requester the immediate neighbor to the west is concerned with the proposed project because of the size and proximity of the proposed additional reviews from the bedroom to significantly impact his property value. His suggested alternative is reduce mass of third floor. Public comment staff received no letters in opposition or support. Staff recommendation is based on Advisory Team this design complies with guidelines related to building massing at the rear and access to mid block open space because the proposed addition is set back 6. 5 feet from the requesters Property Line and extends to the adjacent neighbor to the east. Sits over the existing footprint of the building such that it retains visual access to the medblock open space from the add adjacent properties. Property views are not protected by the guidelines. Staff recommends not taking dr and approving. There are no extraordinary conditions. This concludes my presentation. I am here to answer questions. Thank you. Good evening. I see am renee hole. Are you the d. R. Requester . You have to wait. I see am sorry. I didnt realize that. The d. R. Requester will present first. Then if you are a sponsor you can come up after. Good evening. I live in the house for seven or eight years with my wife and baby. This is one of the rooms where we it is with our baby. It is going to impact our pleasure of the house as well as parents come to live with us often enough. That is why we requested to the height and subsequent i spoke to my neighbor and she is going to present her case as well. Your neighbor is going to present your case . You are done with your presentation . We will before you come up we need to take Public Comment from anyone who agrees with the d. R. Requester. Okay. Since there is none. You can go. Please forgive me for not knowing the appropriate procedure. Is she the project sponsor . No, i dont believe she is. I am sorry. I dont understand who is who. Let me explain. I am the one who is most impacted by the proposed remodeling. I live in the middle of the block around the corner from 1100 broad rick to 11201122 broad rick. It is a two unit building. My coowner had a stroke. She is in her early 80s. In two months i shall be 90. I have here a picture of the existing building from my kitchen window. This is a drawing which we were able to get from the designers, and in a letter on the 30th of april i said i had no objection except that i wanted to see that the extension were not on so deep. Apparently this letter of the 30th of april never got to anybody, even though i addressed it to the planning commission. If you take a look at this drawing, you can see that it comes up to about here and it cuts off daylight from my windows considerably, and is the sun goes at an angle, i will get very little sunlight except maybe once each day. I have here a picture of my existing thing and a photograph with black lines what i would consider for me a healthy adjustment which would mean the line of the roof in the proposed building would not be so high. What can i say . I am nearly 90. My friend had a stroke. She is in her early 80s. We have had no communications with the owner or with the architect to try to let us know what they were planning to do. If it hadnt been for reuben i wouldnt have had a clue. I did give a condition approval. Gentlemen and lady, that is what i have to say. Do you want to take this letter . I can accept that. Just leave it there. Would you take these pictures, please . Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Since we have no Public Comment in support of the dr requester we will hear from the project sponsors. Good evening. I am the architect for 1980 eddy street. What we are proposing is a rear addition. This is the existing deck area, three story deck. The proposed design does not go past the line of the deck or adjacent house to the east. We have held back our building 6 6 be inches in the Property Line the d. R. Requesters window is here. 35 feet to where our bathroom begins. This is approximately 30 feet here. The distance there. There are no windows on this wall right here. All of the windows are back here. This drawing north is up on the drawing. It shows light coming through. There is plenty of light from the south coming this way. In fact these two buildings cast more shadow to the mid block than we actually would. The third floor addition is expansion for the growing family there and for the addition of the unit below is for to add a unit to the housing stock. Also, i have here with me the owner of the home to speak now. Evening, commissioners. I am a fifth generation bay yore z area i have been in San Francisco 25 years. I am a schoolteacher, my husband is a chef. We have two children in the public schools. We love the schools and neighborhood. We need more space. We have decided not to move outside of the city and hopefully to do expansion of our property. Thank you. Thank you. You still have a couple minutes. Do we have any Public Comment in support of the project sponsor . Case is submitted. D. R. Requester you get two minute rebuttal. If you would like. So my case i stated i lived in the city for almost 20 years. I came from a different country, this is my home and i have been living there with my family and kids. I believe that this expansion is going to significantly impact my home value. I requested merely [ inaudible ] okay. Thank you. Project sponsor you have two minute rebuttal as well, if you want to add anything else. I think we started this process knowing that we were sensitive to the house being victorian and the mid block light and air. We made choices. Our planning input to pull the house away from the west neighbors and Higher Elevation than we are. I feel like we have done a lot to already address the light and air access for the whole neighborhood. That is what we did. Thank you. Okay. That is it. Commissioner fong. This is probably not as much as what the neighbors would like to see, the addition in the rear has a shed roof and a higher ceiling than the rest of the spaces. There could be if that was a flat roof that was say 9foot clear space in there, that would reduce the addition probably several feet. Do you agree . I do. Which is probably not as much as what the d. R. Request errands neighbor would like to see but it does reduce it a little bit. Otherwise, the addition and Everything Else is pretty minimal in terms of the length of the lot. I am supportive of the expansion but perhaps with a minor tweak. Commissioner richards. Can you put that in the form of a motion please. Move to grant and to approve the project with modification of the rear from a shed roof to a flat roof allowing the interior to have a 9foot clear. Is that sufficient . Second. If i understand correctly take dr and approof the project as proposed with following modification for the rear shed roof alter the shed roof to flat providing interior 9foot clearance floor to ceiling height. roll call .
