Commissioner Richards:

We had a three week break and obviously there was a lot of reading and a lot of things were produced in those three weeks, just a couple one that I want to mention,  two of them hit me were around parking; on January 1st, in The Chronicle inside section Don't Build Parking Garages They Won’t Be Necessary. It talks about cities such as Des Moines, Iowa, and Altamont Springs, Florida. They are looking at the parking requirements. The article goes on to talk about parking standards and what will be affecting those in the future and this is something that we've been talking about quite a bit here. I’ve been on my bully pulpit around it. The first pressure is millennials driving a lot less; their car ownership is a lot less. The second pressure is technological advancement in that we're going toward autonomous vehicles, and the third is also climate change. It talks about having parking requirements, I know we this on the action item list. It is something to look at and just wanted to bring up. Secondly, there is another article in the New York Times, the 23rd, the same thing, moving beyond the park culture. I recommend you read this as well. So, it talks about the car ownership rates well into the future and as we sit here and approve excess parking above requirements for necessary and desirable, I keep looking out at in the timeline five or ten years and I go what will we do with all this space? We are not going to have cars in.  And the last one is after our hearing on Thursday the 15th; the Controller came out with an economic five year financial plan for the city. It is an interesting read, a lot of numbers in it around where we are with the budget et cetera, but there were three takeaways I had from it, first one being the City is at capacity at housing, even if we were to grow more jobs, we don’t have places to put people for right now, and the transportation infrastructure as well, is at capacity, and we are having a hard time loading it up anymore, and the third one is actually, our growth is actually moderating, we are not going as a fast as we had in the past, that does not mean we are going to have a recession, but it does pertain to some shortfalls in the budget process, et cetera. The big takeaway for me is, while we have a chance to pause and kind of catch our breath, now is the time to actually be doubling down on taking the time, to build the housing, improve the transportation infrastructure, because we know that there another boom that is going to be coming, this is the time to actually do it and not wait. It clearly requires money. So, anyway that was my read over the break.

Commissioner Moore:

I have a question and I have obviously a comment of congratulations, the City apparently has reached an agreement with AAU and it is a development agreement with a term sheet in place. I'm wondering as to whether or not prior to us looking at the advanced calendar, hearing items regarding AAU in February we could have another debrief with the City Attorney's Office on some of the specifics of the development agreement and the term sheets that our own looking at this project is fully informed of how to look at that.


Jonas P. Ionin, Commission Secretary:

Commissioner Moore, actually we just met with the Zoning Administrator Sanchez yesterday, to looking at the forward calendar and your updated advance it will reflect that the action items on February 2nd are all proposed for indefinite continuance and on that same hearing date, you'll hear the first of the AAU development agreement informational presentation.

 

Commissioner Moore:

That answers that, thank you very much.

 

C.         DEPARTMENT MATTERS

 

5.            Director’s Announcements

 

Director Rahaim:

Good afternoon Commissioners, and Happy New Year to all of you, I hope you had a great holiday. I thought I might just mention a few things, kind of preview of coming attractions for the next few months to start up the year. Commissioner Moore mentioned the Academy of Art University, the term sheet we are proposing, the first of several hearings on February 2nd, to actually brief you on the term sheet of that term sheet -- to remind you that term sheet is actually, the kind of framework for what will become a development agreement, so, we'll start briefing you on February 2nd. We will also this month and in the next few coming months we’ll bring you a series of Planning Code proposed changes related to the MAP2020 work, the Mission Action Plan, we’ve been working with the community on a series of chances, that will bring to you in small clusters related to PDR uses in the Mission. You will also be seeing this year the draft EIR and later in the year probably the summer the potential action on the Central SOMA Plan, the draft EIR was released at the end of last year, along with actually four other large EIRs, that were all completed by staff by the end of last year, so, those hearings will be coming your way soon as well. And finally we will having at least two hearings perhaps more on proposed changes to the inclusionary housing requirements, probably you heard that Supervisors Kim and Peskin introduced legislation at the very end of last year, we’ll be were looking at that. I think we will be proposing at least one informational hearing in February with perhaps another after that. The 90 day clock is ticking on that, so, you have to take action, I think by the middle or end of March on that one. So, several large policy and projects coming your way in the first quarter and we'll keep you up to date. Thank you.

ALAMEDA CREEK RECAPTURE PROJECT - Public Hearing on the Draft Environmental Impact Report. The proposed project is located in Alameda County, within the Sunol Valley on watershed lands owned by the City and County of San Francisco and managed by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC). The proposed project would recapture water that the SFPUC will release from the Calaveras Reservoir and bypass around the Alameda Creek Diversion Dam when the SFPUC implements instream flow schedules required for future operations of Calaveras Reservoir. Water would be pumped from an existing quarry pit in the Sunol Valley, which collects Alameda Creek water through subsurface seepage, to the SFPUC’s regional distribution system. No construction would occur in Alameda Creek.
