Lets get start item one a resolution approving the designation of forest on mshthd and spear street good afternoon mr. Lazzaro hes here ladies and gentlemen, hes staff of the Arts Commission will present on this item. Thank you, supervisors for hearing this that he appreciate it on behalf of the street actors whom the Arts Commission willss were here to does for your recommendation to designate 4 additional artist street spaces think Market Street north side of Market Street at spear street you may recall that under 3 separate regulations you have designated some 2wr0 other spaces on this same block on the same side of the street were we asking for a remaining four those four would be in compliance with the other spaces that youve designated that are 10 foot by 10 foot spies to meet the size of what they cotton the easy up tents they use it looks like a beautiful market fair arts and crafts fair and highly successful fair in order to provide for the 10 by 10 just as you did in the other resolutions k3789 the spaces from various regulations of police code and excuseme. Typically well before i state them youre probably aware under ordinance 344 dash 83 you are authorized to exempt a space or an area of spaces from any or many of the regulations as long as as the exemption are not inconsistent with the purposes of the regulations and, in fact, over the since 1983 you have in offer 40 resolutions exempted street arts spaces from various regulations and so to begin with all 4 of those spaces were here before you on behalf of would be exempted from the displayed spaces is 3 by 4, 4 feet wide by 3 feet deep and six feet at all exempted as well as the height the height will be instead of 5 needed to 7 feet again with keeping with the other spaces the four spaces are exempted from the 5 foot distance between booster regulations and in this case theyll be next door to each other as the other spaces two of the spaces of the four will be exempted from the distanced from the crosswalk regulations that is normally says that a space will be 5 feet away from a crosswalk in this case theyll be opposite the crosswalk but interestingly and ill go this this sidewalk is 48 and a half feet wide so with these spaces and their exemptions just like the other spaced on the sidewalk they would be 1800 19 and a half from the front of the booth to the adjacent hostility regulationcy hotel over two times the required way width and similarly the back of the boat is 19 square foot away from the curve in this case the sidewalk and again that is like over two times this requirement for a passageway directly opposite the crosswalk are a tree and lamp pole ive observed they dont heroin the flow of pedestrians we feel safely that that two of the four spaces were requesting would be in line with the tree and the lamp post and not hinder pedestrian traffic so that i think ive covered all of this oh, one more regulation one of the four spaces would be exempted from the distance from the 10 foot distance from entrance how it is measured if you look like an entrance a doorway youll measure parallel 10 feet away aperpendicular and 19 and a half feet opposite that entryway that is actually a subterranean entry exit so far a vehicle of the hotel and again and theres a railing opposite that two so again that space will lead 17 and a half feet of pedestrian passage way again morning twice the requirement anyway, im hear and ill be happy to answer your questions if i can.

I provide the staffing support for the department ill briefly go over the landmark designation so far the trees it is near to some of you and go over the process for this particular nominated tree in general all landmark trees are nominated theyre all designated by the board of supervisors the urban Forestry Council serves as part of progress and landmark tree nomination came from the owner of labor subject and the agencies and the Historic Preservation commission is the land use advisor ordinance the board of supervisors can nominee and once a nominees is made the staff will perform on onsite evaluation and the Council Holds the landmark tree hearing at that public hearings a specific time for the pertaining to have a say follow at the hearing the vote can go one of 3 ways but regardless of the economy recommendations to the full council the nomination to the full council for the consideration one of 3 outcomes to the vote and in all cases to pass a motion they need 3 members to pass the motion a suppo nomination will be a recommendation 3 of the members voting against or a split vote they cant get the votes for the tree like i said, it goes to the full council for consideration had the full Council Holds their nomination the chair will provide a report on the committee the Committee Hearing and then at the end of the hearing similar to the landmark try committee theyll have a 3 okay either for against or split 15 members of the council so will members needed to vote for or against the motion if denied by 8 members the 23450e78gs stops otherwise with the slit voted for the board of supervisors for consideration additionally important to note that all landmark dont need to meet all the requirements but it meets the threshold for landmarking ill provide for detail for you if youre interested and in this case the nomination for this tree the hook north pine was made by the Planning Commission the Property Owner didnt give permission to ensure his property for an evaluation of the tree we were able to get permission from the estate of the next door neighbor and Council Members and staff rendered the evaluation the landmark Tree Committee held two meetings at the end of the first hearing didnt have enough information and at the end of the second hearing a vote of 2 to one 3 Council Members we are present and two voted against one for so this went to the full council no recommendation from the committee at the full council they had two hearings after the first hearing a 5, 5 vote 4 members in favor against because they needed 8 Council Members that was a slit vote with no decision this is what went forward to the board of supervisors in in response, the urban forest was to reconsider the council did in march of this year at the end of that the Council Voted 9 members in favor and two against this is today, the nomination is back before the board of supervisors for consideration. The urban Forestry Council supported this bans 4 criterias the trees attribute and environmental benefits and ill be happy to answer any questions you may have. Supervisor wiener. So i noticed in the packet this is amongst did tallest trees in San Francisco. It is quite at all. I know this is out of a catalog and the tree heights change but can you elaborate in terms of where in from the photos it is enormous. The tree was quite large they found that meet the landmark tree but the physical go attribute are the age, the try is estimated between 70 and one hundred and 20 years old at the lower end of the angle an advanced age for a tree in San Francisco. There was also a socalled sister tree another tree that was planted at the same time the owner removed that tree. We were told that 3 other trees were other than the property and one was either a hybrid or a pine that was either on this parcel or an adjacent parcel and p that appears a multi parcel lot. My understanding this tree is any removal is not about for example, creating more housing. Theres no plans to or developments for the location of this tree and removal is not one of the criteria for consideration we didnt see plans and wouldnt be able to consider any plans for housing for the tree. Ongoing thank you. Any other questions i dont think there are any other questions supervisor peskin thank you for your presentation.

Thank you. Any more Public Comment on this item anyone else. Good afternoon im nancy here in support of landmark nomination of the 46 a cook street it is reached the land use and transportation because weve follow the laws governing the process this is has been part of municipal codes for over 20 years in 1995 with the adoption of the public works with the mooefrt ordinance describing the landmark trees it was to create and maintain a unified urban Forest Resource for the character of sense of place in 2001 the urban Forestry Council was created by chapter 5 of the administrative code to establish criteria for Landmark Heritage programs to provide for the protection of valuable preys trees on public and private property in 2003 the environmental code wasy peddled that readopted the counsels work they scheduled the authority in the environmental code to aid the urban forest the Council Shall consider the use as it relates to private property and to protect the Community Interest to make sure that San Francisco understand the benefits for the future in 2006 and 8 the amendments to the section clarified the designation procedure to be followed to a landmark tree up to referring the nomination for you for final version you may designate thai tree within the material areas of San Francisco supervisor in, 2006 emphasized that landmark trees have a significance to the communities it is hardpressed to find another tree that is loved and bordered supported by the tree on cook street this tree is what the landmark section to honor and protect thank you. Thank you is that the end of Public Comment. Okay. Good afternoon. My name is daily rogers the Property Owner of the lot 46 cook a excuse me. Landmarking of this tree is a real prejudice to me it is well within the rear of the property and is not near the public rightofway and in response to supervisor wieners question this will preventive the housing creation and consider this tree might be in your backyard and all the things you have to deal with thank you. Just a minute supervisor wiener has a question for you. I have a question for you so thank you for for stating that it come in the future prevent the future but is there a plan to add housing what is whats happening there. At this moment ive been spending my money to defend my private property right. You have a plan there. I might have a plan or my kids and. Right now does the hours and a cartridge house in the back. To theres a little Carriage House in the back. How close is the tree. It is 12 feet and i am i dont know what the zoning is im guessing. Rh2. Rh2. Rh2 and i imagine that Carriage House will not be buildable because i think there is rear yard requirements. I dont know the answer that might be a reasonable guess. The backyard area didnt seem particularly likely but you have more information than i have im trying to ferret that out. I dont have any more information. Sir, your time to defend yourself so every time i speak things get thrown at me. I know. multiple voices . Is the Carriage House vacant. Okay ill let someone that can speak better than i can go ahead. My name is Steve Hammond i represent the Property Owner and says this makes it parcel impossible to add additional housing the fact there is a significant amount of space in front of between the tree and the street line it because of the location this tree would not be developable and it would be irresponsible to speculate on plans obviously because the environment but to be absolutely clear it would make the addition of housing impossible which otherwise is my professional opinion is could be completed. And so im trying to understand through the planning code how likely it is because of rear yard setback excuse me requirements and some maybe of you additionally are people under the view we should be building for rear yard cottages but under the San Francisco planning code that is often not allowable so ill just trying to understand if we realistically this will block a project that is either contemplated or will be feasible or legal under the planning code. For one, if that tree was not there that back unit could potentially be expanded and two this is at the rear of the lot and so there is quite a bit of space in front of this tree i believe it is 2000 secret between the tree and the road this requires a more inept analysis because it is consistent with the policy goals to have housing ill put together a memo were asked to vote on this now i raise the issue the owner has brought up that will block future housing creation i really wrote a detailed letter and it seems to me that were a real truly an issue here that i would suspected you were extremely thorough in the letter that would have been to a topic about why it would be legal under the planning code to add housing this Carriage House and why this will prevent that from heaping. The reason that was not added is because the highly politicalized hearing of this hearing to date it is a significant consideration of the owner not because he has immediate plans to develop but because he will losses the ability to develop or to potentially develop with the location of this tree as it is and it is my opinion that because of the amount of vacant lot in front of the tree that there is ample space to add additional hours as a matter of a vested right under the planning code. A vested right. Done without the need for conditional use or a variance. Huh . Steve what kind of a law do you practice. Real estate law for 15 years im not calling into question our professionalism but youre a land use attorney fox. Is there experienced levi stadium attorney. How do you know this land is not developable. How do i know that is not developable because of the square feet requirement for open space and my understanding that with this tree in place those minimum open space will he no longer be met. Uhhuh. Supervisor peskin. Supervisor peskin im reaching this property on line on the Property Information map of the city and looking at it on google maps it looks like a number of Building Permits have been issued as recently as late last year december of 2015 a permit for the development of accessory rooms in the basement adding full bath and playroom and Office Laundry and utilities. Supervisor peskin spending a retaining wall it sounds like those permits were issued without impact on that in the middle of last year there was another permit for a Kitchen Remodel and bath and some other things didnt sounds like the tree is getting in the way of any of those permitted that were issued. Let me address that question im glad you asked is it that leads to the nightclub lots the owner owns 3 contiguous lots 44, 46 and 48, 6th street were considering what was referred as 46 a cook street none of the permits youre referring to relate to the neighboring parcel they all relate to a improvement that is already in place a full house that is thats not the same parcel not the same lot next door. So and im looking a google earth imagine it appears that the tree that is a subject of landmarking proposal that is the item before you is in the back of 46 cook street; is that correct. Thats correct a one hundred and 26 feet lot in the back on the lot line a carnival house. I see that in front of. Is the tree you have the tree and then in front of that that you have in the back 48 cook in the back of 48 cook the carriage and in front of the that the tree and in front of the that you have this huge open area. I see the tree. And the street. A respectful ill go to supervisor wiener was saying which is he was asking what the rh2 and indeed that is a according to the Property Information map that is a rh2 district devoted to one and two singlefamily homes or rather uncommon two large flats by the owner theyre available torrential and it goes on on talks about heights but were it appears to me that as your discussing the carriage talking about the nonconforming use and it appears to me by and balling it but you cant build on this yard it didnt require the rear yard setback. If you dont worry about it and replace a two unit improvement. You couldnt do that in the back. You wouldnt have to from the tree was not there. You cant intense city a nonconforming use. If you demolished the normal improvement which by the way, i question whether it is it says here that according to the again, im reading to you what is on the Planning Department Property Information map but it indicates that the built environment on it as a category a Historic Resource that is listed on a formally determined to be eligible for the california historic register. Those listed can be broad and wide inch not looked at that issue ill ask the subcommittee to look at this and reevaluate this issue and reconvene so we may present evidence that is truthful and answers the question posed. If i made this to my colleagues and members of the public were in receipt of weve probably killed the tree and saved this tree but in receipt of any amount of documents from council representing the Property Owner of that we have here submitted by various part on behalf of your client. Correct. Im saying i dont know we need any more information regardless i think all the information has been before this the urban Forestry Council for quite a number of months now. All right. So youre saying Public Comment is just about over. My Public Comment hadnt started im answering your questions and thats unless you disagree. I disagree Public Comment you have one minute and 6 seconds left. Thank you. None of the 5 criteria has been met required by the ordinances of support by the expert record many of the understanding by the opponents have been found to be in accurate this is a case of first expressions not a contested motion by the Property Owner with the tree not near the rightofway and not the intent of the status to take the property or racing the condemnation and could not stress that is completely within the backyard not near the rightofway it sets a dangerous cyclist precedent and no written finding as required by the ordinance and i extremely disagree this lot this tree is not interfere teller with the ability to add to the Housing Stock of San Francisco the no historical significance. Thank you. Is there any additional Public Comment . At this time please come up. Good afternoon, supervisors my name is Larry Costello im a resident of San Francisco and horticulture couldnt i served as an environmental horticulture and in the San Francisco bay area focused on the premanagement ive served on the University Council and ive served on the landmark Tree Committee and here to oppose this motion including but not limited to this tree didnt qualify as a landmark tree it is a large tree a nice tree but is it really special or unique and it didnt match up in my mind it is not rare
