Standards for Bird-Safe Buildings -
The Planning
Commission will consider two items: 1) a draft policy document titled "Standards
for Bird-Safe Buildings" and 2) a proposed Ordinance that would amend the
Planning Code to implement the proposed policy document.
The actions are intended to a) reduce building-related hazards for San
Francisco’s resident and migrant bird species; b) establish consistent building
standards for creating bird-safe buildings; and c) provide certain exemptions
from these requirements. The proposed Ordinance would amend the Planning Code to
create a new Section, 139 Bird-Safe Building Standards; and would amend other
sections, including Section 145.1; and adopting findings, including
environmental findings, Section 302 findings, and findings of consistency with
the General Plan and priority policies of Planning Code Section 101.1.
Preliminary Recommendation: Approve a draft Resolution recommending
approval of amendments to the Planning Code and adopting a Commission policy
document titled "Standards for Bird-Safe Buildings".

Special Meeting and/or determine those items that could be placed on the agenda
of the next meeting and other future meetings of the Planning Commission.
Commissioner Miguel:
During this week I met with people regarding 401 Grove, Pier
70, 55 Laguna, and also with AT&T. I would like to point out that the American
Society of Landscape Architects, Northern California Chapter, has awarded the
Mission District Streetscape Plan, their 2011 Merit Award. David Alumbaugh and
their team should be congratulated. In addition, this would not have happened
in normal circumstances. The plan wouldn't have even started under normal
circumstances, because this is the type of planning -- long-range planning
basically that is normally funded through the General Fund and there literally
isn't any General Fund. This was because of the Department being able to secure
grants to do the work. So the Department deserves -- accolades on both counts.
Commissioner Borden:
A couple of things: a little nitpicky thing about the
website, when you go to the website it says click on this week's agendas and it
takes you to all the different weeks. It would be easier if we can go directly
to the agendas for that week. It's really annoying. That's how I check my
agendas, because it usually changes. So that's number one. Number two: I know a
member of the public is going to talk about this in public comment and it
reminds me of last week. But I would love to have a conversation about the
protocol for informing the D.R. Requestors, or people in opposition to a
project, making sure that they know in a timely manner if they want to submit
things when their deadline is and how many packets they need to provide and how
much advance notice they can get. I understand that sometimes dates change and
the Department's working primarily with the Project Sponsor. But to the extent
possible, if we can get to people we know who have been vocal -- we're not
saying that people have not identified themselves as being related to a project
must be notified. But, at least for those people who have been identified to be
interested in the project, to get notice about deadlines for submitting
materials in particular, I think it would be very useful and would prevent
continuances and a lot of strife that people feel their issues are not heard
adequately. So that is my other thing. And finally: I think that in terms of the
last item, I think it would be useful after our closed session to have an open
session to talk about the issues, and I know that there's a hesitancy with legal
opinions to release them broadly, because you don't want to release legal
strategy. You want to protect the city against liability. But I think that in
some cases we have to kind of come down on a position and let the public know -
so the public knows how to react and behave and pursue other legal action if
they want. But I think it's important that we -- that the public knows what the
city's position is generally on the various laws that are passed down to the
extent that it doesn't expose our legal strategy should we have to go to court.
Commissioner Antonini:
A meeting this week with leaders and residents in my office,
and we talked about a couple of issues, one of which was a project which is on
the calendar for today but has been continued, and that's 2055 Lombard. But
also, a lengthy discussion about another project that will be coming before us
in the future, it is my understanding, a bed-and-breakfast at Scott and Lombard,
I think. I forget the cross street. It's another issue surrounding emancipated
foster youth. But they raised a lot of very serious concerns that were different
than was the case with earlier projects at 800 Presidio that we had heard. So I
think this is something we have to look at very closely. I know it's on our
calendar, I believe, but I will want to have some answers to some of these
questions before we hear that.
Commissioner Sugaya:
On the website: for me I think it would be adequate if you
just reversed the orders of the agendas and the years starting from 2011 and go
down. But the agendas start in January and go down. So if you flipped it, it
might be helpful.
President Olague:
I also met with representatives of 55 Laguna this week and
AT&T representatives as well. I met with some seniors from District 5, but
mostly the Western Addition and it was really interesting. The issue of the
census came up and the increasing number of seniors that are going to be here in
San Francisco. So a lot of issues concerning their quality of life were raised.
I met with some youth from the South of Market also, who raised issues that
they are concerned about as it relates to housing and other issues of low income
and homeless youth. Finally: this morning I attended the preview, I guess, or
presentation on the expansion of the MOMA, and that was really fun. So it's
pretty exciting, really. And I guess we'll be hearing from them on the 23rd of
June. So it's just kind of nice to have something really positive going on in
the City, because sometimes when we're here we forget that there are really some
amazing things that are going on. That happens to be one of them I think. So it
was a good, positive presentation. So, it is something to look forward to.
Commissioner Borden:
I did have one more question. I
know that Supervisor Wiener is working on legislation dealing with the mobile
food cart issue, moving it from the interior of the parks to a kind of like pad
that's going to be built more on the exterior. And I wanted to know if that
would be something that would come to us or something that we would look at.
Because I know -- if it's still part of the public space but then it's starting
to get into the public realm, I wondered if it's something that we would look
at, particularly because it has to do with -- also with our eating and drinking
in the neighborhood and all this other stuff.
D. DIRECTOR’S REPORT
9. Director’s
Announcements
Director Rahaim:
Last night was the community meeting on the Showplace Square
Historic Survey. There were, I think, maybe 25 people in attendance. We had a
somewhat lively discussion that is scheduled to go to the Historic Preservation
meeting next week at their June 1 meeting for their consideration of adoption of
that survey. Two days ago there was the second of two meetings on the Better
Market Street Project. This one was at the Whitcomb Hotel under the Department
of Public Works. We are working very closely with them to redesign Market
Street. There were about 100 people in attendance at this meeting. It was a good
crowd, a good discussion, and that project is completing its first phase, which
is a kind of analysis of existing conditions and looking at best practices of
other cities. The next couple of months we'll move into the phase of ideas for
the future of Market Street, and I also wanted to let you know that I convened a
meeting this week. I think I mentioned last time with the wireless providers as
well as the City's Department of Technology, the City Attorney's Office and
staff about this issue of the wireless facilities and the possibility or the
potential of looking at some sort of larger plan or context for those
facilities. We had a good discussion. We're pulling together some notes and some
ideas from that meeting, and I will reconvene that group in a few weeks to talk
about what we think we could be doing in that regard, and what a potential plan
might look like; might cost; what the scope of that might be. And I just wanted
to also thank Commissioner Miguel for his comments about the Mission Streetscape
Plan. You're right, that plan would not have been possible without grants,
because those types of projects are no longer funded through the City's General
Fund, and so I appreciate your comments. And I want to congratulate staff for
winning the third award in the last month on our project. We're really pleased
about that.
10. Review of Past
Week’s Events at the Board of Supervisors, Board of Appeals, and Historic
Preservation Commission.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS:
§
BF various Parkmerced.
The Land Use Committee held a special hearing on the morning
of Tuesday May 24 to consider Parkmerced. At that hearing Board President David
Chiu introduced a package of amendments to the Development Agreement intended to
strengthen the tenant and rent control protections in the agreement. The
highlights include:
o
providing that
tenants themselves become 3rd Party beneficiaries of the agreement and are
explicitly vested in the agreement and given rights to bring legal action over
enforcement of the agreement (as opposed to just the City);
o
instituting an
explicit financial penalty, equal to approximately $192million, if the developer
challenges the rent control provisions in court, whose proceeds would be used to
subsidize the rents of relocated tenants;
o
designating
certain blocks of existing garden apartments to remain until the last phase of
development or 20 years, whichever is sooner, and allow existing tenants with
tenure of over 10 years to move to these units if they wish;
o
requiring the
Developer to allow a group of relocating tenants to collectively move to the
same block of new housing if they wish to stay together; and
o
inserting the
explicit ability of tenants to petition the Rent Board for a rent reduction for
loss of patio or balcony space in a new replacement unit.
o
An amendment to
the Design Standards + Guidelines document was also adopted that would eliminate
the organic farm and replace it with additional sports fields. These amendments
were all adopted, and the Committee forwarded all of the items to the Full Board
without recommendation by a vote of 2-1 (Wiener and Cohen support, Mar opposed).
The same afternoon, the Full
Board voted to uphold certification of the EIR and on first reading to approve
all actions on the project by a vote of 6-5. In favor were Chiu, Chu, Cohen,
Elsbernd, Ferrell, and Wiener. Opposed were Avalos, Campos, Kim, Mar, and
Mirakrimi. The project will go before the MTA Board and PUC Commission in June
for those agencies to ratify their respective portions of the Development
Agreement.
§
AT&T Lightspeed Appeal.
This item was continued without discussion at the request of Supervisor Wiener.
The Board approved a five-week continuance. Also at the hearing,
Supervisor Wiener introduced a hearing request on DPW’s Order governing
Excavation Permits for the Installation of Surface-Mounted Facilities in the
Public Rights-of-Way. Specifically, the supervisor requested “a discussion with
Public Works, City Planning, SFMTA and the PUC of the extent to which the DPW
Order conforms with the General Plan and the Better Streets Plan”.
§
1787 Union St.
This appeal concerned the Cat Ex for “The Brickyard”. Neighbors alleged that a
cat ex should not have been issued due to a potentially significant impact from
sound at the premises. Further, they alleged that Department staff and the
Commission had acknowledged the impact by using certain CEQA terms during the DR
review. The appellants specifically cited the use of “impact” and
“mitigations”. At the hearing, the Department countered that two sound readings
by an Entertainment Commission Inspector demonstrated that there was no
significant impact from the project. Countering the appellant’s argument that
the conditions to address sound were “mitigations” under CEQA, the Department
demonstrated that the Commission was, in fact, applying conditions above and
beyond CEQA to address concerns over sound. The Board agreed and
upheld the Cat Ex unanimously.
INTRODUCTIONS:
The hearing request from Supervisor Wiener was
the only introduction of note this week.
BOARD OF APPEALS:
There was no hearing by the
Board of Appeals last week.
HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION:
The Historic Preservation
Commission did not meet this week.

items. With respect to agenda items, your opportunity to address the Commission
will be afforded when the item is reached in the meeting with one exception.
When the agenda item has already been reviewed in a public hearing at which
members of the public were allowed to testify and the Commission has closed the
public hearing, your opportunity to address the Commission must be exercised
during the Public Comment portion of the Calendar. Each member of the public
may address the Commission for up to three minutes.
The Brown Act forbids a
commission from taking action or discussing any item not appearing on the posted
agenda, including those items raised at public comment. In response to public
comment, the commission is limited to:
(1) responding to
statements made or questions posed by members of the public; or
(2) requesting staff to
report back on a matter at a subsequent meeting; or
(3)
directing staff to place the item on a future agenda. (Government Code
