With respect to agenda items, your opportunity to address the commission will be afforded when address the commission up to three minutes. I do have a couple of speaker cards. Great. Georgia and donald. Good afternoon commission i just want to reiterate some of the ideas that i think will be used you feel to embattle with the planning process for the neighborhoods not only for noah valley but other residential Neighborhood Story poles i think that people dont know always read and understand the what is in front of them as the 311 and story poles could be installed during the 311 period, of course, it depends on the fact that the drawings are accurate and how the story poles are installed but if a professional did it that would be helpful to the planning preprocess and the neighbors the second is the rashgs d g that is worked on now the rear yard mid block open space needs a thorough vetting of what is going on this whole thing with the privacy fences like walls and the merging the inside and outside space sometimes that relates to how deep the excavation when we do the remodels but it is sort of changing the concept of what people if San Francisco think of as rear yard mid block open space and the changing of the cost of fences and the whole idea of mid block open spaces it kind of an under the radar thing that needs to be looked at and lastly roof decks and stair penthouses need to understand their impact and roll in the remodels and how they effect the neighborhood the rh1 and rh2 neighborhoods thank you very much. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon, commissioners San Francisco residents as everyone knows sf City Government gets accused of being the pocket of the developers it go o is likely this is the most hostile Development City the world the world bank collects data and during the construction permits the top ranked cities some are getting Building Permits one, two weeks and the worst ranked cities afghanistan this commission can take almost a i cant remember, however, in the city of San Francisco permits can take as long as to 10 years with the lack of housing shortage and i think it is important, however, we need to show you expedite the park more efficiently to get buildings from permits to groundbreaking on the project site thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. As soon as you start speaking sfgov will go to the screen. Im charles from the Steering Committee was asked to speak only the on behalf of my colleagues on september 19, 2015, we introduced ourselves as affordable folks on that date we expressed our concern with the rezoning of divisadero to neighborhood commercial Transit District we on that day we expressed our concern of the lack of Community Input and of affordability and one of the things that we want to touch on today is about the Community Plan during that time we were working on since that meeting we have colonel together and had over nine hundred participants and 4 Community Planned meetings in consideration with the Diverse Group of individuals from families, renter, owners and neighbors in on that date during that time we also wanted to express how important to definitely put the Community Input into part of the planning process. During that time after the meeting after all the numerous meetings weve had we also had a proposition to amend the are reZoning District for the neighborhood Transit District in which we applaud however, in that proposition it is still hallow and we feel that we need a more concrete and structured affordability plan and part of rezoning that was done and stay for example, a radio site went from 16 to 60 units 16 to 60 units we feel we need to increase the affordability iq guess the question were peoples if were going to rezone and increase density why not there the marketrate so were here today with affordable with all of our hard work and Committee Inputs to give to you for you as the Planning Commission to consultant to review it.
