1a. 2000.138DV
(WANG: 558‑6335)
4038
17TH STREET - north side between Castro and Douglass Streets, Lot 011
in Assessor's Block 2623. Request of Discretionary Review of Building
Demolition Permit Application No. 9814005 and Building Permit Application
No. 9814006. The proposal would alter an existing vacant one‑story over
garage, single‑family dwelling into a three‑story over garage,
three‑family dwelling in an RH‑3 (Residential, House, Three‑Family)
District and a 40‑X Height and Bulk District. Note: This project was
previously heard by the Commission on April 6, 2000 and May 10, 2001, respectively.
Following public testimony on April 6, 2000, the Commission moved to continue
the hearing indefinitely, so the Project Sponsor could develop a design that
(1) does not require demolition of the existing structure (the demolition
building permit application will be withdrawn by the project sponsor); (2)
retains a substantial portion of the front part of the Victorian house; and
(3) allows three dwelling units to be constructed on the site. The revised
project proposes to retain approximately 42 feet of the front of the existing
building which includes both exterior sidewalls and some of the interior walls.
The existing facade would be preserved and moved forward by approximately
3 feet 4 inches and lowered by approximately 4 feet. The facade would be attached
to a reinforced and expanded structure constructed between its new location
and the existing portions of the sidewalls, which are to remain in place.
The sidewalls would be extended downward by approximately 4 feet and the 3‑foot
11‑inch parapet would be removed. The revised project would further
include building additions above and behind the retained portion of the existing
building, resulting in a three‑story over garage, three‑family
dwelling. The revised project would also require the justification of a rear
yard variance, which will be heard by the Zoning Administrator concurrently
with the discretionary review.

Recommendation: Pending

for continuance to June 14, 2001)

4038 17TH STREET,
north side between Castro and Douglass Streets; Lot 011 in Assessor's
Block 2623 in an RH‑3 (Residential, House, Three‑Family) District
and a 40‑X Height and Bulk District. REAR YARD VARIANCE SOUGHT: Subject
to Discretionary Review by the Planning Commission, the current proposal is
to alter an existing vacant one‑story over garage, single‑family
dwelling by remodeling it into a three‑story over garage, three‑family
dwelling in an RH‑3 (Residential, House, Three‑Family) District
and a 40‑X Height and Bulk District. Note: This project was previously
heard by the Commission on April 6, 2000 and May 10, 2001, respectively. Following
public testimony on April 6, 2000, the Commission adopted a Motion to continue
indefinitely, so the Project Sponsor could develop a design that (1) does
not require demolition of the existing structure, (2) retains a substantial
portion of the front part of the Victorian house and (3) allows three units
to be constructed on the site. The revised project proposes to retain approximately
42 feet of the front of the existing building which includes both exterior
side walls and some of the interior walls. The existing facade would be preserved
and moved forward by approximately 3 feet 4 inches and lowered by approximately
4 feet. The facade would be attached to a reinforced and expanded structure
constructed between its new location and the existing portions of the sidewalls,
which are to remain in place. The sidewalls would be extended downward by
approximately 4 feet and the 3‑foot 11‑inch parapet would be removed.
The revised project would further include building additions above and behind
the retained portion of the existing building, resulting in a three‑story
over garage, three‑family dwelling. The revised project would also require
the justification of a rear yard variance which will be heard by the Zoning
Administrator concurrently with the discretionary review. Section 136(c)(25)
of the Planning Code allows enclosed and unenclosed extensions of
buildings, as permitted
obstructions, to extend no more than 12 feet into the
required open area, provided
that the structure shall be limited to a height not exceeding the floor level
of the second floor of occupancy, excluding the ground story, at the rear
of the building on the subject property, in which case the structure shall
be no closer than 5 feet to any interior side lot line. Section 134(c) requires
a minimum rear yard of approximately 35 feet, measured from the mid‑point
of the rear property line for the subject lot. The new addition to be constructed
behind the retained portion of the front part of the existing building would
be three stories tall, extending 12 feet into the required rear yard to be
within approximately 33 feet 6 inches of the rear property line and would
encroach entirely into the required 5‑foot separation from the east
side lot line and from the west side lot line, respectively.

8. Commission Matters
Commissioner Lim: - There was an audit
completed by the Department of the Controller regarding Development Impact
Fees. This audit was sent to the BOS on May 30. There was a resolution that
was passed urging the Planning Commission to certify existing studies calculating
the average area purchase price for the development fees. She would like
to know what would be the best way to respond to this audit. {This shall
be calendared under Director's Report during the hearing of June 21, 2001,
which will allow for public comment.}
- There have
been a lot of discussions at the BOS regarding the budget for the Planning
Department. She would like the Director to reiterate the importance of this
budget to the BOS since there are 3 Supervisors who are very concerned about
the Planning process of their districts: Sup. Maxwell, Sup. Daly and Sup.
Sandoval. {This shall be calendared for a hearing during July 2001.}
President TheoharIs:
- She saw the BOS meeting on Monday and read an article in the newspaper
about the rezoning of Rincon Hill. One of the Supervisors mentioned that
the Planning Commission was approving this project and the Supervisor was
disturbed. The Commission has not been presented this project. There should
be an Environmental Impact Report done and then a hearing will be scheduled
to receive input from the public. She wanted to clarify this to the public
and asked Director Green to help the Commission clarify this to the public.
She would like the Director to get in touch with Sup. Daly to obtain any names
of people who might want to receive the Environmental Reports.
