Commissioner Antonini:

Thank you, very troubling but insightful article in today's Chronicle by C.W. Nevius and it was about the tent cities where many homeless are living; up to 70 tents apparently are present under Division Street on presumably on city or state property. But in any case, he interviewed a well-spoken 21-year-old man who had moved to San Francisco from Michigan, presumably homeless already because he commented that one of the reasons he came to San Francisco because he heard that the homeless services are excellent in San Francisco and also, he probably heard when we have tent cities they’re left alone and allowed to persist. This particular man is a heroin addict and asked about whether he’d go to one of the navigation centers, he said “I don’t want a job, I don’t want a home, I just want to get high.” So you know this is not typical of all homeless, but certainly there are a certain number that fit this description and I think as proposed by Supervisor Wiener, we need to establish a lot more navigation centers like Pier 80, which apparently is in the makings and provide enough shelter for all those who wish housing and that's the key point because not all of them actually want to go into housing and you know; but the key is, sort of to paraphrase, what happens at the bar: its 2 in the morning they're told by the owner, you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. The answer is you don’t have to go to the navigation center but you can’t stay here and I think we have to have some tough love and we could solve this problem we if get enough housing for all those who need to be housed and then start applying some rules. If you and I pitched a tent in the middle of Speedway Meadow in Golden Gate Park and started to spend the night there, the rangers would come by and say what you are doing, you got to get out of here. So I mean the laws apply evenly always and that’s how it should be done.

D.         DEPARTMENT MATTERS

 

5.             Director’s Announcements

 

Director John Rahaim:

My only announcement is on the Housing Work Group that I’m chairing as part of the Mayor’s Housing Task Force. The second meeting of that group is Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Department.  Reminder, we are looking at process improvements and the grandfathering issue for that work group; and again that’s Tuesday the 2nd in the Planning Department at 3 pm. Thank you. 

 

6.             Review of Past Events at the Board of Supervisors, Board of Appeals and Historic Preservation Commission

 

 LAND USE COMMITTEE:

150914 Eliminate CU for 100% Afford. Housing. Sponsor: Wiener. Staff: Mohan. On Monday, the Land Use Committee heard Supervisors Wiener’s ordinance that would create an administrative path for 100% affordable housing projects. The Planning Commission heard this item on December 3 of last year. At that time, the Commission was unable to pass a resolution in order to make a recommendation to the Full Board. Even without the Commission adopting a recommendation Supervisor Wiener amended the legislation to include Planning Staff recommendations.

 

      At the Land Use hearing, Planning Staff reviewed the Planning Commission’s discuss at the hearing and the two motions1 that were entertained but failed to pass, resulting in an automatic recommendation of disapproval. There were several public commenters who spoke in favor of the legislation including representatives from Bridge Housing, the Housing Action Coalition, and the Mayor’s Office of Housing. Of note, only 2 commenters out of 16 asked for the Committee to recommend disapproval of the ordinance. Supervisor Cohen expressed unequivocal support for the proposed ordinance, while Super Pekin made a more nuanced argument. In the end, the Committee voted unanimously to forward the ordinance to the Full Board with a positive recommendation.

 

1 A motion to continue the proposed ordinance to January 21, 2016 failed on a 3 to 3 vote. A second motion to adopt a recommendation for approval as amended by staff, including removal of grocery stores

 

150456 Planning Code - Measurement of Rooftop Appurtenances and Infill Spaces for Noncomplying Structures in C-3 Zoning Districts. Sponsor: Mayor. Staff: Starr. Also on the Land Use agenda was the Rooftop Appurtenance ordinance, which the Committee continued for 90 days so that the ordinance could be amended and sent back to the Planning Commission for additional consideration.

Government Audit and Oversight Committee

• The Government Audit and Oversight Committee held a hearing this week to discuss IMPs and student housing requirements. During the hearing Scott Sanchez adroitly represented the Department and provided a brief summary of these requirements. Ex-Planning Commissioner Doug Engman provided details on the history and development of the IMP requirement2 during Public Comment, and Commissioner Moore also testified at the hearing. The committee and public noted that the IMP requirement has generally been a successful provision, with one notable exception - Academy of Art University. The committee and public expressed much frustration over the ongoing compliance issues with this institution. Supervisor Peskin noted that he has been following this matter for some time and expressed optimism for resolving this in 2016. He also urged the Department to continue with enforcement efforts. The Department is continuing with our enforcement efforts in order to ensure this matter is resolved this year.

 

2 IMP requirement was adopted 1976 - this is the 40th anniversary.

 

FULL BOARD OF SUPERVISORS:

Public Hearing - Appeal of Categorical Exemption from Environmental Review - Proposed Commuter Shuttle Permit Program. Staff: Navarrete, Jones. At the Board hearing this week, the Supervisors were schedule to hear the CatEx appeal for the Commuter Shuttle program; however, Supervisor Yee introduced a motion to continue the CatEx appeal for two weeks to February 9, so that MTA could attempt to make revisions to the Commuter Shuttle Program. There was about one hour of public testimony on the continuance, and the vote was 9-2 to continue the item with Supervisors Weiner and Tang dissenting.

 

INTRODUCTIONS:

None

 

                Commission Secretary, Jonas Ionin:

The Board of Appeals did meet last night; there are two items that may be of interest: 75 Howard, the Board heard the 309 and variance appeals for this project. At a previous hearing the Board expressed concerns related to the design and how it relates to the surrounding context. The Board asked additional questions related to design, the Board voted one to four to grant the appeal and deny the 309. This motion failed. No subsequent motion was made so the 309 was approved by operation of law. The board vote 2 to 3 to deny the appeal and grant the variance, this motion also failed no subsequent motion was made so the variance was granted by operation of law. The Board also heard an appeal, a project at 312 Green Street which was heard by this commission as a DR in October of 2014 and it was unanimously approved. Since the Commission’s review, the project, the CEQA determination was appealed to the Board of Supervisors and upheld. A related variance was appealed to the Board of Appeals and upheld. Following that appeal the appellant filed a petition for writ of mandate which was denied last week by the California Superior Court. Last night the Board voted unanimously to deny the appeal and uphold the permit. In addition, last week the Board held their election of officers and voted to elevate Commissioner Darryl Honda to President and Commissioner Frank Fung to Vice President.
