Isolation purposes in response to our working with the nighttime entertainment people back in 2005. We actually had three meetings and actually kind of revised the plan numerous times to fit their goals. I think now it would be acceptable to them. At least acceptable to one of the club owners. I havent talked to the others specifically. But there would be 24 units. You talked about [speaker not understood]. Do you know the exact number . If you give me a minute, ive got the plans with me. Thats all right. Okay. Its roughly theres more studios than one bedrooms in the twobedroom town houses. The two bedrooms are all at the back. Thank you. Sure. So, on that, too, i think this is a unique situation. We talk about grandfathering pipeline projects. But it seems like its a last you know, kind of a last minute change of the zoning that wasnt necessarily contemplated. So, i would be supportive of some kind of grandfathering carve out, whatever we want to call it for that project on 11th stree
Appreciate that. From what i have heard i dont feel there is sufficient evidence to substantiate all of this, i feel the conflict is not supported tonight. So that doesnt cause me any alarm or concern in terms of what the Entertainment Commission has done and the conditions applied to the permit. I dont have any concerns with upholding the commissions position here and im denying the appeal. You have a motion. If no further comments i would move to deny the appeal and uphold the commissions conditions on the permits on the basis of evidence submitted and the record. So we have a motion from the president to uphold the imposition of these additional conditions on this permit and thats on the basis of the evidence submitted and the record below. On that motion, commissioner fung, aye, hurtado is absence , lazarus, the conditions is upheld. We have no further business tonight. This meeting is adjourned. [gavel] like to welcome everyone to San Franciscos Planning Commission regular hearing
Western soma on hold until the central corridor is ready to go forward because that doesnt make sense. But i think we really have to know where the possible areas of conflict may be, what could be done to make the two compatible, and what are the options that would be before us. I know we cant jump ahead two or three years to know exactly what may be planned for central corridor, but perhaps someone could give us some insight into what is being thought of there and how to make the two dovetail together in a way that keeps the western soma plan moving forward. So, i think id like to see that certainly for next week if we could have a little bit more explanation along those lines. Let me followup on that. Related to the four blocks of overlap, mr. Teague, are you able to describe a little bit further in detail how that might look or are there any ideas on those four blocks . How to treat it . Sure. You mean obviously other than what is proposed right now . Right. Well, you know, there ar
Weve heard from are people who have legal nonconforming uses that currently are in areas that dont permit office because right now under the current zoning you cant really have office anywhere. Or you have people who want to do new office, which obviously that is a very sensitive issue in western soma because very high demand for office space. But its not the kind of space not the kind of use they want to have to be prevalent throughout the plan area. We have the wmuo district on townsend street. We are permitting one floor of office space in the rcd right, already existing office. Right. On top of that looking at now you have these article 11 buildings which i imagine many of which have existing office in them because they were allowed to today, now in the future wont be able to. So, looking at how we treat even if we choose to call out that category in a separate manner, i just think we need to figure it out because, you know, and actually put [speaker not understood] when it gets to
May already be legal nonconforming or its legal now and its going to be rezoned in a way that use is no longer permitted, it will become legal nonconforming. How we treat those uses, obviously theyre allowed to stay. In some cases depending on the use, theyre allowed to expand to some degree with certain approvals. Thats already kind of covered in the code. The legitimate am i sayization process we did for eastern neighborhoods was specifically for projects that had not got earn their permit so they werent legal but uses that could have gotten their permits when they went but they didnt. Right. It gave them an option to come in and become legal nonconforming uses because if its a situation where you have a use thats legal right now and were proposing to rezone it and its going to become legal nonconforming use, theres no way to kind of provide a pathway to legalizing that use without changing the zoning. Right. I was thinking about doing that here. It doesnt sound like we were. No, we
