Commission comments and questions i want to start by welcoming, our new commissioner, we look forward to you joining us in our deliberations and hearing your perspective and being part of our, Decision Making process. And with that, i will call on Vice President moore, welcome, commissioner williams. Thank you. Commissioner, is this will be a short day, but youll get a very good feel of how things are done, i like to ask my fellow commissioners to remember commissioner rose and her attempt to support the resolution that she had drafted regarding Affordable Housing programs. And a note to the governor of the state of california. We had had drafts of that. And what happened is our own deliberation that we had planned was somewhat short cut because of the board of supervisors adapting, adopting resolution 5924. In early february, a resolution that in content very much resembles of what commissioner ruiz had suggested to us. I like to ask that we support this particular resolution urging the state of california to withdraw proposed cuts to Affordable Housing programs, and that the commission, agrees to support this resolution. Id like to count your comments and ask for your support. So ill start by saying i absolutely support the resolution. I thought it was extremely well drafted, and im very happy as Commission President to weigh in and say it has my full support. Lets see, commissioner braun, sure. I want to start by also welcoming commissioner williams to the Planning Commission. It is great to seeing, more people up here on the dais again. And im really looking forward to hearing your perspective and everything that you have to share. And so welcome, and then as far as supporting the resolution. Absolutely. You know, we recently had an informational item, and heard about the significant challenges that exist for funding Affordable Housing, how funding is the number one need in order to ensure that were producing Affordable Housing and so, absolutely, yes, i support the resolution. Thank you. Commissioner imperial, welcome, commissioner, williams in the Planning Commission, and just like other commissioners, also would like to hear your, many comments that you will provide in the commission and welcome, in terms of the resolution by the board of supervisor, i read the resolution itself and it seems like its very, its very well drafted and really looked into the, you know, the findings of why we need the Affordable Housing here in San Francisco, so i solely, also strongly support the resolution drafted by the board of supervisors. Thank you. Commissioner koppell, also welcome, commissioner williams. I think were getting our way back to a full seven up here, which i think is very important. And im also in full support of, commissioner moores idea. Thank you. Vice president moore, i would ask, secretary qanon, what would be the best form for us to acknowledge . I dont think it requires a motion. How is this best done by the City Attorney . You know, i think, i mean, we could agendize it on the, next weeks agenda, and then you could simply take a vote to endorse the resolution. Acceptable yeah. It is. Im happy to do that with that. Add additional weight to the comments that were just done right now. Well, i would imagine so, it would be recorded in the minutes that way you could take a vote. And this conversation is not recorded in the in the minutes. It is actually, the commission comments and questions, we do actually, transcribe your comments. Yeah. So i mean, im fine. Agendizing it for an endorsement if you all would like to do that. I dont know that its required, but if its, let me see. I see, commissioner williams. Thank you. Commissioner, i just want to lend my voice. I know this is my first day, but i am absolutely, in favor, of this resolution here. Given that the shortage of Affordable Housing that were facing as a city, this is, you know, devastating, and for us. And so. Yeah, definitely in favor of this. Okay. Thank you. Director hylis, i just wanted to give you. I mean, i think its fine, too. Its already the citys. I mean, because the board voted on it, it is the citys policy, but i dont think it hurts to take it up as well. I just want to. I mean, we all know prop eight passed, which is great. And part of what we talked about in the report you heard was in, i think, commissioner williams, you brought this up in your, your nomination hearing. Like, we need more resources to fund Affordable Housing. So good news that prop eight passed. Obviously, the state cuts, you know, as a city, were urging them to restore those, but just so you know, too, the regional bond is being considered by abag in mtc to put on the ballot for november. I sit on a bag, as well as some of the, a couple of the members of the board of supervisors. So thats coming up as well. And i think it, you know, hopefully it will get on the ballot and pass. But thats a, i think 1. 9 billion. That would be voted on by the by the or. Its more than that. I think thats the city gets about 1. 2 million is estimated. So thats a significant, Funding Source too. Thats underway. But none of these get us to the to the numbers we need to get to build the 40,000 units of Affordable Housing. So, mr. Aiona, and i think it would be helpful if we agendized an item that called for endorsement of the board of supervisors resolution. Okay seeing no further requests to speak from commissioners, we can move on to department matters. Item nine directors announcements, no. Just welcome commissioner williams. I dont he didnt mention, but we had the pleasure as a staff of working with you. I think a decade ago or maybe a little more on the excelsior strategies, which i was on the commission when we heard them. I think. Commissioner moore, you were here, but it was a great Collaborative Community process. So thank you for your work there, and were looking forward to working with you in the future here on the commission. So welcome. Thank you. Thank you. Item ten review of past events at the board of supervisors. And the board of appeals. The Historic Preservation commission did not meet yesterday. Good afternoon. Commissioners Veronica Flores filling in for aaron starr, the manager of legislative affairs, welcome commissioner williams, the Land Use Committee heard two items this past monday. The first item was the amendments to the state mandated accessory dwelling unit, or adu controls. As reported last week, this item was amended and continued for one week. Because the amendments were considered substantive this week, there were no Public Comments and no questions or comments from the committee members. The committee voted to forward the item as a Committee Report to the full board with a positive recommendation. The next item considered was the Planning Commission sponsored ordinance entitled exceptions and extensions for existing uses , also known as the oops ordinance around the Planning Department. Tonight, this ordinance amended the planning code to modify offset requirements for heights in the Bernal Heights wsud permit. Large Movie Theater signage in the japantown neighborhood commercial district. Allow medical cannabis dispensaries to continue operating as temporary Cannabis Retail uses until december 31st of this year, and also clarify eligibility for reduction in permitted work by the Planning Department and correct errors in the code. During the committee hearing, there was again no Public Comments and no comments from the committee members. This item was also forwarded to the full board with a positive recommendation, and the land use hearing concluded after about eight minutes. I think that might be a record for the committee moving on to the full board. This past tuesday, the full board passed four items on their second read. This included the Housing Production ordinance sponsored by the mayor, Parcel Delivery services sponsored by supervisor chan, the family and Senior Housing opportunity special use district, sponsored by supervisor engardio, and the potrero yard special use district, sponsored by supervisor ronen. The full board also passed three items on their first read. The first item was the landmark designation for the Sacred Heart Parish complex. Also, the conditional use authorization for removal of unauthorized units and the state mandated adu controls was also passed on their first read. Lastly, the full board adopted the president ial appointment for our new commissioner, who is able to join us today. This concludes the board report. Thank you. Good afternoon. President diamond commissioners corey teague, Zoning Administrator. Welcome, commissioner williams. The board of appeals did meet last night, and they took action on one item of interest to the Planning Commission, again, this is the golden gate highway. Excuse me. Great highway Pilot Program. The closure on fridays and weekends, Planning Commission approved the coastal permit for that Pilot Project back in november. That was appealed. Three separate appellants to the board of appeals. And that was heard in february, ultimately, the board voted to deny those appeals of that coastal permit. However the same three appellants also filed rehearing requests to the board of appeals, which is, a process through the board where if, kind of new information that could have changed the outcome is presented, or if theres the possibility of kind of manifest injustice, the board can choose to hold a new hearing on the appeal. So, all of the arguments from the appellants, for the rehearing, save for one, were dismissed. The one issue that was, kind of considered by many of the commissioners was information within the San Francisco estuary institutes report and kind of best Management Practices for the for the beach area and the dune system, even though that report was out and available at the time of the appeal hearing and was referenced, a couple of the commissioners had concerns with the way it had been discussed and the lack of information that had been provided. To grant a rehearing request. It requires four of the five commissioners to vote for that, and ultimately, upon a motion to grant the rehearing request that only received three votes. And so that vote failed. And the rehearing requests were all denied. So that matter is completely settled at the board of appeals. And that coastal permit for the Pilot Program is officially approved. Thank you. If there are no questions, commissioners, we can move on to general Public Comment at this time, members of the public may address the commission on items of interest to the public that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the commission, except to agenda items with respect to agenda items, your opportunity to address the commission will be afforded when the item is reached in the meeting. When the number of speakers exceed the 15 minute limit, general Public Comment may be moved to the end of the agenda. Hi, george, good afternoon, i was going to welcome officially welcome, commissioner williams, but he had to leave. Thats okay, as everybody knows, ive been talking about the democracy for a long time. And today i want to talk about a particular project that had its permit issued in october of 2017, with the cfc issued in march of 2021, and. But it needed a revision to the demo calcs in september 2019 because it did not account for the removal of the roof. And so i went and checked out the calcs if i could have the overhead, please. They werent published on the pym, so i went to dbi. So there was the original. T
