operative to reflect the changes
to amend the section to clarify
the homeless shelter in the
transportation sfeent make the
planning code to firmer the ceqa determination and make others appropriate vksdz. >> supervisor wiener. >> thank you very much Madam President this is an exciting
day this has been in the works
for years to take a step to extend our transit impact fee
that will be known as is
sustainability fee to
residential construction the sustainability fee was adopted
35 years ago and for all those decades applied to commercial
development but not to residential
and so residential development
in san francisco moornlt how
large does not autumn pay the
transit development fees a hole
in the fees of this growth if
inform san francisco it is
critically important our transportation infrastructure
keep up with our housing approximate and transit impact
fees are one way to do that colleagues you'll recall 3 years
ago when the renewal of the impact fees we had discussions about that fee and moving
forward we have now the opportunities to take this huge
step and to extend the fee to
residential development it will generate hundreds of million dollars of duo dollars for the
transportation improvement over
the next 15 years in combination
with the prop b from the ballot
that ties transit that funding
to population growth and the prop a the transportation bond
as well as upcoming
opportunities with the vehicle license fee we're gaining
monument in san francisco to
funds the modern and reliable
transit system we all need over transit systems are over
capacity and necessarily we need
to extend that for that bart and all the systems
of course, we in committee had a lot of discussion about what the appropriate level of the fee was
we in committee did increase the
fee by one dollar per square feet for residential and
commercial for large projects we
also removed the plan areas
exemption and then we also
limited the grandfathering
provision to end as of July 21st
the date of introduction of this legislation
so this has been a thoroughly thor vetted piece of legislation
0 takes a huge step forward to
get the knocks to the
residential we did a lot of work in committee to extend it
further I know there is discussion about other aspects
of the legislation with one can
take the position the fee should
be higher than self-is no matter
would level someone will step
forward and say it is should be
higher but right now this
legislation takes a big step forward and appropriately
balances the need for our
transit fund and for transit
impact fees with making sure
that we are actually having housing built in san francisco
so colleagues, I ask for your
support and we want to thank
everyone in making this legislation a reality.
>> commissioner avalos. >> thank you Madam President colleagues I'm
someone so I will be proposing making some amendments I believe that the planning department and
the mta did really great work on crafting our transit standpoint
program and the fee is something
we spell need as as city all of the colleagues have been voting
11 zero to put anymore funds into transportation needs in san francisco we are dedicated to
doing that I have been glad we
all that had consensus we need
to fight for all dollars for transportation in san francisco
we've talked about also trying
to find every dollar whether we
can find for the infrastructure in the city we actually have a
lot of money left on the table
with the transit sustainability fee I sat in at the land use
commission I felt that was important we bring this effort
into the light of day into the
legislative arena the discussion that had been done before coming
to committee was in the mayor's
office setting what what the fee
will be developers or creating a
deal one of the on that was
going on and we look at what the
fee is compared to what the nexus study will measure the
impacts and what we're chair mar
for the fee will be pay for the residential impacts and
non-residential
we are also not taking into consideration that projects had
that have been in the pipeline
before July 1st of last year
2014 anticipating that that fee
would be established yet giving
them a pass for the for the most
part and not doing it but
collecting has much as we can. Many of the developers that are impacted saw it coming
and so I'll be proposing we actually have grandfathering
with a fee only residential and non-residential I've been concerned I actually went to the planning commission
with when the planning
commission was reviewing the tsf
to look at how different fees levels for different parties
part of san francisco we see
development happening at the
gangbusters levels other plays in san francisco not seeing that
happen particularly in district
11 we looking at a one-size-fits-all fee for the
entire city does that create a disincentive for development in places where land values are not
quite as high as in the downtown
core the city I'll be proposing
that we look at having a
geographic study about to set
the structure for the fee based
on geography in california I'd
like to propose a number of
those amendments if you May
indulge me colleagues, I have a
handout you'll receive the first
is the motion to increase the
non-residential fee for gross
square feet of 8 hundred to 99
thousands to 18 and $0.54 a
number of months ago that will
be together we'll want to take them spacial and commissioner
avalos have you handed out those amendment. >> I have it explains what the
amendments and the city attorney
has crafted legislation that has
actual language prepared for not
necessarily for your desk but at
the end of the day it will be
made in accepted.
>> we'll take each of your amendments one by one.
>> I haven't had a chance and
it is a lengthy list you'll go over them one by one.
>> in fact, my office has been
sharing this information with
legislative aide to in city hall
so surprised it is new information. >> well, the specifics of the
information I'm aware of I was
aware you were going to propose amendments.
>> okay. So my first motion
to raise the non-residential tsf
for gross square feet of 8
hundred thousand 8 hundred to 99 thousand nine hundred and 99
square feet to raise the fee
$0.50 to $8.54
also on non-residential to over nine hundred and 94 thousand 99
gross square feet to raise it $4
to $23.04 that's below the
nucleus 23 percent nexus so we'll be addressing the impacts
on transportation but it will be
only a small portion that is my first. >> you want to take both of
these together. >> yes. >> okay. So commissioner
avalos has made a motion seconded by supervisor campos
and Madam Clerk is there any
discussion regarding the amendment. >> seeing no- >> supervisor campos. >> thank you. I do want to say something not only about that specific amendment but actually
think that applies to the variance amendments we know that
will be presented and I think to members of the public that are
watching this I think that if
there's every an example of power that those corporate and
players have in this building in
many respect about to happen is
an ill nexus study is the length of development and
transportation and it shows that
when you build like this city
has been building there's a cost
associated with that and that
cost has prelims in the transit system it is interesting people
talk about how much they support public transit and promote
public transportation when it
comes to forcing powerful
commentary interests and money
interests to pay for this that
is where somehow the commitment
goes away or you know weathers down a little bit because what commissioner avalos is talking
about here is actually a modest
increase that talks about
essentially on this charging 21
percent in the case of the first amendment and 21.2 percent is
permissible under the nexus
study and the ceqa second
amendment in his motion on
charges 23.8 percent of the
nukes what it shows we can charge we're talking about
hearsay of billions of left on
the table if there is ever an example of a corporate give away by the city and county of san
francisco this is it
and so when we have discussions we will going forward in 6
months or a year if now how we
need more money for
transportation let's not forget
what people are doing today
giving in m many rights a pass
to folks that should be asked to
pay their fair share and are not being asked to pay their fair
share when we come out here and
say how we need to find more money for transportation let's remember that we left a lot of
money on the table here today and even that at the end of the
day it is not what we say about
public transit but willing to do
to make people pay for that that
I proudly support those amendments. >> thank you commissioner avalos sdmooe you have questions on the amendment. >> I have a question.
>> about the amendment. >> yes.
>> this is about the amendment
recommended to the amendment let's first city planning.
>> I want to be clear there
are other names on the roster and I think that commissioner
avalos has made a motion for a
specific amendment I wanted to
make sure we keep the questions or comments kwaerd towards the specific amendment.
>> directly related that up to
you it is related to an
amendment I need information on the feasibility piece of it. >> okay.
>> so maybe for city planning
I want to better understand what
this does in terms of
feasibility a month somebody calculated and how conservative it the palm that was circulated.
>> director ram is here if the planning department.
>> thank you, supervisors john
ram my staff lisa has been
working the numbers I'll say in
some parts of city we were at
the max in terms of the feasibility study we were
comfortable with it is
discussions but the tilt feasible analysis we were
middle-income in certain areas
I'll let any staff answer that if I could.
>> lisa chang with the planning department has director
ram men's we reran the feasibility numbers taking into consideration the childcare fee
in the areas where the growth is
anticipated in the area plan
where about 60 percent of growth
anticipated for 4 out of the 6 protocols the new mooementd amended fee because the
childcare fee is with the
feasibility but for chronicling
the portfolios we were using a
general indicator further we
found in some of the areas that
are currently not feasible the fee could you know continue to
impact the feasibility but we
did find overall for projects
where an areas that are
generally feasible into fees
will not impact that legislation. >> okay. >> supervisor mar.
>> I said to thank Ms. Chin
and director ram for explaining that I'm supportive of
supervisor campos amendment I
think that looking at the the
several the feasible study and
the nexus study that the maximum
amaze we could bump it up sixth
higher and be well within the
maximum amount I think that
supervisors developments are
reasonable they're actually very
modest combaus because
supervisor campos mentioned
$0.50 more for the so-called
smaller and roughly one homicide
thought square feet not near the
maximum of the feasibility study part of the nexus study I'm
supportive and appreciative it
is graduated or teetered so it really take into consideration
the the impacts from the much larger developments I'm
prevalent supervisor campos is
right that this the studies
allow our city to allocate much
more I think what was proposed
by commissioner avalos is modest
given what the study shows
thanks to supervisor wiener and the mayor's office I'm supportive of increasing the
fees as property by commissioner avalos.
>> supervisor wiener.
>> thank you, very much. Madam President
you know, I wasn't going to say anything no response to
commissioner avalos amendments I
respect his right I've said at
the beginning from someone
supervisor or anyone can always
want one can say it should be a
bit higher and we have increased
residential transit impact fees
in the legislation if zero to almost $8 per square feet i
think that is important to see
where we've started if zero to
$8 per square feet and this is a huge step forward
so and despite some of the raefr
dramatic rhetoric we've heard in
chambers are in today, if you
don't support whatever the
highest number someone proposes
your somehow not really fighting
for transit funding that is
frankly on absurd agreement some
of us fighting for transit
funding hard for years work hard
to get prop b for example,
passed last November which half
of the board voted against to get the mooning bond passed and
working to make sure we go to
the ballot next November with
the vehicle license fee this
legislation in its current form I provide significantly increased transit funding
there are a lot of people in the
development community who are
unhappy we introduced
legislation to begin with that extended the impact fees to the
residential development and
people upcoming u unhappy people
in committee supervisor cowen
and I were they were unhappy
with us to support the changes
we're trying to engage in responsible law making we
actually do work over a period
of years instead of dive bombing
at the last minute and come up with responsible legislation that take into account the views of stakeholders and moving forward with legislation that will significantly increase funding for our transit system
and do so in a responsible way
>> thank you, supervisor wiener commissioner avalos.
>> I'll let the last word go. >> supervisor campos.
>> how responsible is it to
charge our developer friends
only a fraction of what we charge them is that
responsibility policymaking
before w patting ourselves on the back be honest
with the people in the city and county of san francisco I'm
store that some people find it difficult to make developers uncomfortable but the reality is
that the level of development
that is happening in this city
is not only impacting the
housing because the buildings
that has focused on luxurious housing but impacting transportation as well
so before we get this on this
high horse of how we always done
with what we are supposed to in
transportation funds to some step up to the plate we have
except when it impacts our
friends in the development what we say at the end of the day is
what matters we'll see that today. >> commissioner avalos. >> just to call the vote on
the amendment we have a series
of amendments so my name is on
the stake for the next cke for the next ke for the next e for the next for the next amendment.
>> commissioner avalos is a
substantive amendment it if this
passes it goes back to committee Madam Clerk.
>> to that end I know there
was a discussion whether to
continue this item I don't we're
under a major time constraint
with the grairthd closet that
comes latter not giving anyone a surprisingly surprises to the feasibility fee.
>> I have no problem with that item going back to commissioner
lee Madam Clerk call the roll.
>> on the first amendment
supervisor yee commissioner avalos supervisor breed. >> no
supervisor campos supervisor christensen no supervisor cowen no supervisor farrell no
supervisor kim supervisor mar supervisor tang no supervisor wiener no
there are 5 I's and 6 months with supervisor breed supervisor christensen supervisor cowen supervisor farrell and supervisor tang in the decendents.
>> okay. The amendment fails supervisor campos our next amendment.
>> what I have is number 2 to
a tiered grandfathering for
residential residential for
projects between July 1st, 2014,
and July dwight 2015 will pay 75
percent of tsf currently on
paying 50 percent of the tsf but while those projects we are
working on the tsf and expecting
to pay the full amount but
giving them a discount and for
doing a tiered grandfathering
for non-residential projects
submitted before jill first 2014
would pay 50 percent, between
the difference between the tdif
between July 2015 pay 50 percent
between the tsf and tdif
projects after that pay the full
tsf
so that would be my motion. >> okay commissioner avalos
has made a motion is that there
a second are seconded by supervisor campos
any discusses specifically on the amendment
supervisor wiener is your
comments on the amendment. >> yes. Thank you mayor pro
tem we had a lengthy discussions of grandfather provisions in
committee there was always when
you change the rules on anything
in particular about costs and fees that are associated with
some things that is always a
little bit tricky when you make that retroactive we know that depending on the size of the
project those fees what about
quite large which is frankly a
good thing and when projects try
to pencil out for the financing
and so forth they assume certain
things the tsf is a discussion on and off a a long time given the history of that board and
should some of the votes in 2012
none can take anything for grant out of the legislative process and the amendments in committee
that increased the fee and the
attempts to increase the fee
today is reasonable not to
assume everyone knew that was going to happen the grandfathering does not wave the selfie but reduces the fee for
promotions in the pipeline and
for older projects they don't
say have to pay is that make sense before this legislation was drafted
when I authored the water
recycling legislation earlier
this year to require water recycle in large new developments we made a prospective for projects that
are that going to be entitled after a certain period of time we thought that was important because again those promotions
when you're putting it together
and determining what you'll pay
for affordable housing or impact fees you make south american
assumption on the lay of the
lands and changing the rules you
have to be very, very careful
that strikes a balance didn't need to be amend. >> thank you, supervisor kim on the amendment. >> thank you. I just wanted
to share my comments inform
support of to amendment I
actually think there has been incredible public knowledge
about our plans to raise the transit impact fees
this was actually heard at the board of supervisors over two
years ago and so I think many
developers and projects were
aware we remember considering
the increase I think we should be imposing a percentage the fees on projects
in the pipeline as an example we
had one project that was
submitted before July 1st of
2015 and I've negotiated with
the project in the south of
market that they will be pca paying a portion of
transportation fee I felt that was important for residential
projects to be paying those fees
it is something that is feasible for the developers regardless how this move forward but be consistent amongst the
development but in particular if
you submitted our proposal after July 21st after the introduction
of this ordinance I think you should absolutely be paying 100
percent of the transit fees
I think that you know overwhelmingly increasing
particularly in the districts I represent I'm hearing more and more if neighbors if others districts the congestion is
becoming unbearable and we need
to make sure that we are
catching with existing needs to
make sure we are approving public transit and improving the
traffic flow on the roads there
is a direct co-relation between
the new residential development with the congestion we've
experiencing in the city I'll be supporting this amendment. >> thank you, supervisor kim
commissioner avalos supervisor breed no supervisor campos supervisor christensen no supervisor cowen no supervisor farrell no
supervisor kim supervisor mar supervisor tang no supervisor wiener no
there are 4 I's and 7 notices with supervisor yee supervisor breed supervisor christensen supervisor cowen supervisor farrell supervisor tang
supervisor wiener 1, 2, 3, 4 the
December sent per the amendment fails commissioner avalos.
>> thank you. I have to more amendments
the next one for motion on the
amendments next one for number 3
on any sheet I've handed out to
extend the full tsf fee to
projects in the possum submitted
by July 21st, of this year, the
last part of my motion.
>> are you-is that your motion. >> for non-residential yes.
>> my last bullet in number
1924 to grater in projects
submitted after July 21st, 2015,
to pay the full tsf and
supervisor kim spoke is that as an important part.
>> got it you're asking for an
amendment for the last bullet point specifically. >> yes.
>> that will be for non-residentials.
>> okay commissioner avalos
has made a motion is there a second. >> seconded by supervisor campos supervisor wiener. >> thank you
just a point of clarification I
think we don't very specific
language that is an outline in
committee I offered an amendment
the committee adapted to say no
grandfathering for any project that was submitted to the planning department starting after jill 21st of this year
which is the introduction date of the legislation
and so I'm unclear about what the amendment is we've made as
you recall we made that
amendment in committee that full
tsf applies to any projects submitted after July 21st the
introduction date of this year
if I again, I don't have the specific language.
>> let's confirm with the city attorney is that- >> Mr. Gibner. >> john gibner, deputy city attorney
so the amendment made in committee applied specifically to residential the non-residential under the
amendment that came out of
committee is non-residential
still pays of tdif and commissioner avalos amendment
has non-residential paying the full tsif.
>> now I recall commercial has
paid tdif all along that kept
that in place until the effective dale date of the
legislation and it was the grairtd is really about
non-residential because it is no
need to grater no reason to grandfather commercial they're
already paying it. >> thank you.
>> okay. I just need clarity
from my understanding where
talking about non-residential
from this year 7, 21, 15 thai
pay 100 percent of fee and supervisor wiener is saying
their included could you explain
to me where we are and if this amendment is necessary.
>> as far as explained by the john gibner, deputy city attorney is needed because we
only had made the amendment in committee that effected the residential but not residential
has not been effected it is a
new program with the tsf compared to the tdif. >> you're asking this specifically for commercial.
>> commercial for non-residential. >> okay. >> all right.
Seeing none, no other names on the roster-supervisor wiener
>> I think on that particular
one so really what the
difference it is a few dollars
for I don't know how-and tdif.
>> I'm assume did he we know
Mr. Ram what the number is of
commercial that is the first
time I've heard this issue
everything was raise in committee how many projects
between July 21st and today.
>> I do have that in front of
me that actually submitted applications on July after July 21st. >> yeah.
>> I'm sorry I don't have that
list off the top of my head but
I assume a small amount of projects. >> as you recall I don't recall dealing with that specific issue raised in
committee I believe will this
amendment require the being sent
back to committee a Mr. Gibner
is nodding his head
I would if commissioner avalos
would like to split this off and
send that back for further consideration I'll be willing to
do that this is the first time
this was raised I'm not
comfortable on voting on that today. >> supervisor cowen. >> thank you very much
I just wanted to also ask if I
can have an opportunity to see
it I love to see it in the land use.
>> it will go to land use we
can-it's actually
straightforward what we're trying to do non-residential projects that were in the
pipeline and submitted by July 21st, 2015, of this year will be subject to paying a
difference between the tdif and
the new tsif the total amount
that's all it is we can vote on
it, it is did same thing in
committee and if you vote on it
now we'll have the opportunity
actual vote getting down I hope to accomplish today. >> councilmember cole is that your comments.
>> I want to say I imagine
we'll vote on the motion to commissioner avalos said I want
to come back to me to talk about
the other portions of the hospital. >> supervisor kim. >> I was going to make a
suggestion I know there will be
a motion to duplicate the file
others trailing amendments will move through the planning commission and land use I
suggest it triggers a rereferral to committee to the planning commission. >> no. >> it was discussed. >> is that perhaps we
duplicate the file and put this amendment in the duplicated file to come come to the land use
committee I support this is a minor change not impacting many
projects I think that is important I don't understand the rational between distinguishing
within residential and
commercial projects and why residential projects are
submitted and I after July 21st
will pay the full tdif but not
the full-it makes sense that
all projects pay the full tsf if they submitted open July 21st moving before the board I would
like to support that day but if
duplicating the file allows the
members to have more time to
consider it it make sense I
think that is a minor amendment
is not moved forward by the way,
they pay some fees I think we
should be consistent paying 100 percent. >> supervisor john alavos.
>> it was an oversight we didn't end the non-residential
to July 21st, 2015, I believe an oversight I'm fine with duplicating the file and having
a vote on the new language I'm
proposing in any amendment and
have that duplicate sent back to
committee and vote on one item
moving forward is to me what I was accepting. >> supervisor wiener can you
explain why you prefer to duplicate the file rather than basically allow this amendment
were to pass allow it in its
cyber it to go back to land use.
>> I did not want to send the
desire legislation back to land use this is going on for years different forms the legislation
it is time to move forward and
if someone want to propose
something new let's consider
that separately but in terms of this issue and commissioner avalos thank you for acknowledging this was national
raised in committee I made the
motion or I raised the issue in
committee of making sure that there was no grandfathering for
any project submitted after
July 21st of 2015 so despite supervisor campos assertion
we're fighting hard to make sure the developers can't rush their
projects in on July 22nd or
August 5th or whatever to gain
the system and avoid paying the transit impact fees the developer should not been able
to do that that is exactly where
why we but put in the cut off
that applies to residential before this legislation, of course, paid zero
and so they could completely
skirt commercial has always paid
impact fees for 35 years it was
not necessary for the cut off to
try to avoid the gaming of the
system it is a fair argument
whether tdif or tsf should apply
to the post July 26th period happy to have that discussion
but given that was raised for is
first time and cause a delay in
the legislation my take to sever
it off and send it back to
committee and have a discussion in committee. >> thank you supervisor kim. >> I was going to reiterate
that duplicating the file allows
us to pass the tsf today that is
exactly what you said but allow
the proposed amendment to be
considered later on. >> commissioner avalos you
want to make the request to duplicate the file.
>> yes. Duplicate the file and
all the time the duplicated file.
>> all the time amend the duplicated file.
>> to include non-residential
projects submitted by July 21st,
2015, to pay the full amount thought it was the diverse
between the tdif and is tsf not
only will be commercial and pdr to be clear.
>> so commissioner avalos has
made a motion to his duplicated file. >> simple privilege of the supervisor.
>> to duplicate the file yes,
but made a file to amend the duplicated file we'll be voting on the duplicated file correction correct.
>> on the motion to amend the duplicate.
>> do we have a second seconded by supervisor campos
and are the names on the roster
in regards to the amendment. >> yes. >> supervisor cohen.
>> thank you. I just wanted to bring to your attention I'll
make a motion to duplicate the
file so if if is something
people are interested in
dissolution we'll take it on to
my amendment but one vote taken
for the duplication of the file instead of two. >> got it. >> the clarification when we duplicate the file what I'm
suggesting will not require us to go back to the planning
commission but go back to land use. >> okay.
>> so- >> point of order. >> supervisor wiener.
>> just a point of order I'm
saying once the file is duplicated and commissioner
avalos to the amendment to the duplicated file and supervisor cowen's can make an additional
amendment to duplicate the file
it doesn't need to be made- >> thank you for a clarity
Madam Clerk on the amendment to
the duplicated file can you Madam Clerk, please call the roll.
>> supervisor yee
commissioner avalos
supervisor breed supervisor campos
supervisor christensen
supervisor cowen supervisor farrell
supervisor kim
supervisor mar
supervisor tang supervisor wiener there are 11 I's
the amendment to the duplicated
file passes unanimously commissioner avalos any additional amendment.
>> yes. Colleagues just a
question for the city attorney john gibner, deputy city attorney I have another
amendment I want to do about
calling for a study with the
geographic study for the
quantity of sf if that passes
does that go back to the
committee or forwarded today to
our next vote for next time. >> make that amendment to the
ordinance that the board will
pass today but not required make
it on the original.
>> I'll hold off until I hear schoelg and hopefully she'll
make that on the duplicated file and commissioner avalos for
clarity you want to make that amendment here to both files.
>> it will be only on the
original file but make that after we vote on supervisor cowen's motion on amendments. >> okay. Thank you. >> supervisor cowen. >> thank you thank you very much
ladies and gentlemen, needless
to say it is a complicated piece
of policy I'm glad we're taking
this on thoughtful fully in a
diligently way and want to
recognize I've had conversation
with many stakeholders and
pleased to report we've wraechd
an agreement with the nonprofit hospitals that will be
contributing to the transportation system the
hospitals were 100 percent
exempt of paying the fee on medical facilities and today
colleagues, I have plans I want your support asking you to duplicate that ordinance and
amend the hospital provisions to
include the following
a $18 fee on new hospital beds
effective immediately not after
the sxoo schematic mandate, a
new $11 fee on medical services
over 12 thousand square feet and
additional signages on
conforming changes
I want to also take a moment and
recognize the flexibility of
director ram and director ed
reiskin and my staff have afford
myself and my staff and the hospital association david in
particular it's been under a particular amount of stress to wrestling the members and
bringing them to the table glad for his willingness to work with us
I think that is important to acknowledge by calculating the hospitalization fee by the net
new beds we're acknowledging
that hospitals that have not yet
under gotten the schematic
upgrades are increasing their
square footage to meet state
guidelines for new equipment,
technology, and hospital rooms but not necessarily increasing the number of beds
I know that is a mouthful an
important point it is important
to note that new agreement
impose a fee on which will have
otherwise been exempt medical
services like large clinics and
outpatient stability over a 12 thousand square feet
and we know from talking about
with the household we know the
expansion of medical services is
actually the direction that many
of them are pursuing rather than
increasing the number of
hospital beds so both new
hospital beds and medical office and service buildings have
transportation impacts in our
neighborhoods and it is
essential and fair they
contribute something to our transportation system
so for example, when we are
dealing with camtc has several
impacts with the 49 admission
and geary and 19 polk mitigate
by the payment to the project
without the candidates the city wouldn't have been able to pick
up the costs of improvements
those funds benefit our city transit riders but especially
the patient and the employees of
hospital that often heal I
didn't rely on the health care services because this agreement
establishes a new fee is requires an additional committee meeting we've discussions earlier
and in an effort not to hold up
9 whole tsf ordinance I ask we
cup the file and amend the duplicated file as I've previously described in which
the clerk has circulated to you again, this is evaluating the
fees to $18.74 with the beds and
establishing an $11 feces fee
for over 12 thousand feet and the size and scale of the
medical serves as part of motion
I want to also refer the amended
duplicated file back to the land
use and transportation committee for an additional hearing.
>> before we move on I have a that have the of clarification
on your it samuels you're doing one amendment for 3 different
things you're asking for one
amendment for each of your items? >> no okay.
>> page 5 line 21 is that 15
hundred square feet or supposed to be larger than that.
>> page 5 line? >> 21.
>> it says 15 hundred square feet.
>> so, please repeat over amendments specifically.
>> sure.
>> all right.
$18.74 fee on net new hospital
beds effective immediately not
after the schematic mandate a
new $11 fee on over 12 thousand square feet and additional fees
on the hospital and other conforming changes
>> I'm sorry the last one I didn't hear.
>> additional or not on hospital uses and others conforming changes. >> okay. Thank you
is there a second seconded by supervisor campos supervisor campos.
>> thank you Madam President I want to thank supervisor cowen
for and her staff I know they've
spent time working on this issue and thank you to the hospital council a lot of discussions over the last few days about
this
I will be supportive of this
effort I think that it seems to
me it is a good way of balancing
the interests involved
and you know my experience
having worked with supervisor
farrell, supervisor chiu on that cpmc there's been a process
we've followed in the psa past in terms of addressing the transportation implications of
hopeless project and make sense
that we yesterday in this effort
so I'll be supporting it and again, thank you to everyone for getting to this point. >> thank you. >> thank you, supervisor kim.
>> thank you. I just want to thank supervisor cowen for
spending the additional time
with her office and council to
reach a compromise it is
important that our hospitals pay
tsf given they generate trips in
the city I don't understand the
smaller hospitals and clinics
particularly they provide tremendous service for the working class communities in
terms of how the city impacts
their bottom line costs I'm glad
we were able to find a solution
to strike a balance for various
of hospitals in the city and
supervisor cowen can I make a recommendation you withdraw your
request to duplicate the file
and amend commissioner avalos amended duplicated file.
>> you raised a question about my hospital amendments the third one was off.
>> I didn't understand that.
>> I want to let you know I made a request to the pdrs
requirements that is what the confusing the los angeles. >> thank you.
>> I also want to recognize
andrea my aid in any office that
helped what the entire conversation. >> thank you. >> thank you.

attorney just to clarify the
amendments note on page 5

months and to workshop the plan
every 4 years with the ceqa determination. >> supervisor wiener. >> thank you Madam President
and colleagues today before us
is the legislation to require
the preparation of a subway
specific master plan in san
francisco while we have had a lot of plans over the years
great work by our mta and transportation authority and our planning department about transportation and public
transportation it is time to
have a master planning process
specific to subways we know our
is growing dramatically we have
200 though more people today
then in 1980 growing by one hundred thousand people over the
last decade and continue to grow
by 10 thousand people per year san francisco will steady one
million people in the bay area
will grow by over 2 million
people our streets are more and
more congested that has all sorts of impacts including the impacts on the transportation
system we need to move more of
our transit systems underground
and to avoid the congestion
entirely bart's system as well as the market street subway
opened in the late 1970s fast
forward we've not opened one additional inch of subway
capacity even as our city grows
by 200 though people muni has
the lowest transportation aid we
have to be aggressive moving
more transit underground opening
the central subway in a few
years that's terrific and not
make the mistake by allowing
everything to grind to a
hallucinate e halt once we on the central subway we need
subways under construction and
planning and keep that monument moving forward
and so this legislation will enable
us to have a sounding board a
long term plan to make sure we
keep our subway moving forward
colleagues he ask for your support. >> thank you, supervisor wiener supervisor yee. >> thank you supervisor yee
for introducing this legislation
I totally agree we need to look
at a comprehensive plan to see
what we can put underground I've
been working in our neighborhood

that partially that the m line underground there and there are
plans that are being made that
will escape us vast improvement
with the capability. >> at the supervisor yee supervisor farrell. >> thank you, supervisor wiener for this this is long

>> I see supervisor wiener is
the only co-sponsor and in addition to supervisor farrell
came back supervisor breed and now supervisor christensen supervisor tang and supervisor yee. >> thank you
all right. Colleagues colleagues, can we take that same house, same call? We'll take that without objection. The ordinance passes unanimously
on the first reading and.
>> Madam President I want to
thank my staff and particularly
jeff for his work on this legislation.
>> Madam Clerk can we go to the committee reports.
>> yes. Item 25 was considered by the land use and transportation committee on it's
meeting on November 2nd and forwarded as recommended as
amendment with the same title 25
to impose the interim controls
in the transit center plan area
and between fulsome and harrison
and second reading to restrict
the new signs between 200 feet
from a planned park or open space and restrict the elimination of certain now signs
and to make environmental finding. >> supervisor kim. >> thank you
this ordinance before us today sets a consistent control for
how we establish signage in the
transit center district plan
previous to the interim controls
there was not a standard set of
controls of signs were
considered this is a very new
type of neighborhood in the
transit-it's come to our
attention conflict in what our
office tenants time to see
around illuminated signage in
the district that disturbs our
residents at night when it
shines directly into their windows for berms and leadership
we're building a new park a very
large rooftop park in the center
of that neighborhood and concerns of signages facing into
the park we want to set consistent standards consistent with other neighborhood around
the city this set of interim
controls sets that standard for
the centralizing center plan I
made an amendment to have the
illumination turned off at 10:00 P.M. We were coming up
with a time of some wanted at
9:00 P.M. And some 11:00 P.M. After the land use commission we
had additional conversation I'm
making on amendment to move to 11:00 P.M. The original amendment I'm making to the interim controls colleagues, I
ask for your support first make a motion to amend.
>> supervisor kim has made a
motion colleagues her amendment we'll take that without objection. We'll take that without objection. The amendment passes unanimously and is there anything else supervisor kim and eject supervisor cowen. >> yes. Thank you very much
supervisor jane kim we have a
lot of conversation in the land use commission I agree with your
decision to move to 11
I was hoping you'd talk about a
very engaging and public process
for folks if you don't know we
started at 9 o'clock and now
10 o'clock and now 11 talk about
the scombrirl process.
>> so similar when the
conflict first arose with one of
the homeownership's association
an illuminated sign that faced
directly into the residential
units of several of the constituents I represent that
was disturbing their peace to
sleep an interim agreement
between salesforce to turn off
the awe limitations at 11:00 P.M. As the planning
department move forward with the interim controls with the
transit center the awe
limitations was set and the
11:00 P.M. They didn't have a
strong rational while 9:00 P.M. Rather than allocate time we decided to continue the
conversation that are parties to
see if there was a desire to
change the time to an earlier times a lot of different feelings around that frankly it
is hard building is a different type of neighborhood with intense commercial use finding
the right time is difficult we
don't have another neighborhood
so in the end after discussions
those decided we would honor the
original agreement last year unfortunately, some of the discussions were did I continued
to the last minute yesterday in
an effort to breathe some compromise I suggested
10:00 P.M. Now we're moving back
to the agreed league of women
P.M. Add on by stakeholders last year.
>> seeing no outlet names on the roster colleagues, can we take that same house, same call?
As amended we'll take that without objection. The
resolution is adapted
unanimously as amended Madam Clerk.
>> my apologies the timeframe
to 11:00 P.M. That was the
motion you accepted without objection I don't believe we took that motion yet.
>> we voted on the amendment we'll take that without objection..
>> and that was now you're
voting on the item as amended. >> yes.
>> thank you Madam President. >> thank you.
>> Madam Clerk can we go to call roll for introduction. >> supervisor yee is the first
supervisor to introduce new business. >> thank you very much Madam
Clerk I actually time to make a few announcements rather than
introducing legislation those
are two things we are doing in our district it's important to
make note of that I will be
starting our third year in our participatory budget program and
the kickoff will be November 12,
7:00 P.M. And west portal
playground plateau house? An
opportunity for residents to
come up with ideas how to spend
funds that can benefit the district ultimately when they submit the proposals the
residents themselves will vote
on which projects they'll like to support
and so that's a necessary
meeting and then two days later
we on November 14th we're going
to have our first I believe our
first outdoor sort of movie

are on the agenda you can't comment on them pubically here
today when their heard in committee that's your opportunity to comment.
>> I was misinformed.
>> you can speak about a topic in general not specifically.
>> in general I'm concerned
about liveability in the
transbay area where there is a
lot of intend to be a mix of commercial and residential uses
it I believe it is possible to
accommodate the new residents
and the mixed use that are tint
including parks and commercial
uses of all size and I believe
that the needs of the larger including office uses and
salesforce can be accommodated
without the kinds of signs that
will be allowed by the
amendments to the original
signed legislation I will hope
that we can reconsider the
changes that were-that are
being allowed by the amendments
that that made to the original
legislation today, I hope as
those amendments, in fact, I would have hoped those
amendments went back to the land
use commission so they could
have been commented on it seems
like the original legislation
has changed so much it could use
more comments.

have very grad that is coming to
light and that lady services a
metal and david the supervisor
deserves a metal you know jesus
said whoever causes one of those
knows ones to strum it is better
if a stone we are cast into the depth of the sea this story that
aired on nbc is connected with
what's on my stirt with john
cover up jesus christ is going
to through them is imposing
truth
now, when christ was killed let
me read what bill has in chapter
one
to say that jesus of nasa regulate was the most
influential man is trite nearly
2 thousand years after he was
brult executed more 2.2 billions people believed he was God that
is 77 percent of U.S. Population
according a a gallop poll the teaching of the jesus has shaped the entire world and continue to
do so when I think about the
wicked people that vicky when
was talking about in the social
services I can't help but think
of another wicked man called ca
if his that said in the fourth
gospel the 11 chapter you know
nothing at all nor consider it is xeesht that one man should
die for the people and the whole
nation perish not he meant it
like they need to kill jesus but
christ died for our sins.

quiet practices in the evenings not a lot of traffic and not a lot of people

screaming too much alter one
another our footprint is, am I correct?
Criminal or your mother schopz
trees let's spend time possible
to find a way to character that didn't institute anyone's ophthalmologists or turn farmers
into criminals that maybe
familiar if we refer to carbon
dioxide as garbage not as a
toxin that's not murder us on
certify lice and provided a picture of a garbage bucket that
deals with the issue he can get
a stronger buy in and balance
the carbon upload with the
carbon counsel load and avoid
having to August because natural
processes we'll deal with our common history of carbon
overload we only have to deal with the current carbon account
and that should be a much easier
solve because it is a much
easier job we need a few more trooez trespassing don't have to
replace our cars or power plants
or liver styles those things
become a bit important expensive
we can't afford it we have to

>> Madam President supervisors
my name is adams duffey a nearby
residents neighborhood activist
I first in a few years for the this is the first time I'm
trying to get the vote out of my
building in a non-partisan why I
know who to whether I am there
is 87 units in any building at
any given time 83 extinguisher 2
living there and 82 names on the
ballot index of voters that are
registered in any building to
vote if you go by the index of
sororities or voters only 40
residents that are voting and
that it seems to me to be like
an invitation in our from-I
think others neighborhoods have
cleaner voter reels than our
neighborhood it not equal
protection under the allow the
fourteenth amendment they have the least maturely service people moved out 10 years ago
and people that have been dead
for a decade on those roles all
I can say if you're airbnb and
spending millions of dollars
come to the tenderloin.
