public comment on this item and the action. first speaker is allen cobb. >> do you want to speak? >> yes. this issue of generating the days to see the subclass areas in the mix which is in one sense another way of doing it or a new way of doing it and the issue of the strategy and the hedge fund areas, there are 16-20 strategies. i believe it was never our intent to go back to the questions i posed in june and they were not all going to be recommended to us. if we are breaking things down further, only those strategies that we would reasonably want to do, that kind of breakdown should also be in here. it would approve the risk numbers as well as the rate of return number. i'm sure that number is possible to generate based on the consultants and as well as cambridge as our consultants. that's a request on the same timeline. >> go ahead. >> in terms of the research, i think it has to be, i heard comments from the customers here that i have heard say that it has not been objective. i would like to see it objective, that is not everything compared to hedge funds. it has to be objecti

and after that we'd like to yield the floor to jennifer's father allen and to dan if they would like to say a few words so with that supervisor farrell. >> thank you. to jennifer and to her family you know my class of colleagues came to the board of supervisor's about 4 years ago now and she worked for my predecessor for a while and i could really rely on her if you will and started working on some on some of the warrior's issues and some other projects and she was one of the most -- i just want to let you know -- you know, she was one of the most amazing people to work with so hardworking obviously accomplished so much but really a great person and a great colleague inside of city hall and you know, i remember not only working with her but after being diagnosed seeing her last year during a holiday party about this time and her amazing strength and heart and dedication and commitment to fight what she was fighting and then really hit home this year with the race with jennifer that our clerk was so instrumental in putting together , your mother your sister and daughter were so i

you very much. >president cindy wu: thank you. >> tim allen. i live on minnesota. generally in support of it. one concern that i have is the environmental impact report lends to the project itself. what's really happening in this neighborhood is there is 8-12 construction projects plus the hospital coming online with as many as 5,000 people out a day and thousands of new people and housing units being added to that neighborhood is having a much bigger impact than this project is understood. one specific action item is the number of carshare spaces. in this particular units you have 1220 units and they increase the requirement from 2-4. so if you think of what kind of impact in reducing the total number of cars of this neighborhood and the eight other properties being built is really creating a significant hazard by having so many cars in the neighborhood. it's putting a lot of pressure and there are three preschools and all the parents are trying to get out of their cars and walking children and there is a huge impact here and i would like to see consideration for a stronger considerat

is allen mills, a 30-year resident of the excelsior, i live on prague. i can only reiterate a lot of the things that have been said. captain mcfadden talked so eloquently about the problems involved that it's a nightmare for police. supervisor avalos said that 95 percent of the residents are against it. i don't know what else there is to know. there is too many already in the excelsior. we do not need one more. thank you. >> hi. i'm kelsey, the human resources. we employed many people. if this application were approved we would create 40 plus more jobs and that's just the beginning and we've recently engaged the mission hiring hall to ensure we reach local job seekers to join great benefits and pay. they all makeover $15. we provide medical benefits and 100 percent of monthly premium and vision and lifelong disability. i urge you to approve this so we can bring a compassionate community friendly employer to the excelsior neighborhood. >> as the next speaker comes up, i will call more names. >> hello, my name is jays on. i live at 166 dellville avenue near the proposed location of spa

twice as many but time to roll them out we'll get the first what i have woody allen wave in a couple of years that will be used to or used for the t line system and so for the next few years we'll be operating exclusively with our inadequate fleet and for a few years after that, the number one t line portions the system will continue to operate exclusively with the vehicles and gradual transition after that a so we need to make the most of the light rail vehicles and make sure their bridging the gap and that as we grow as a city the light rail system will grow in captivity and to be reliable for the needs of our riders so i would like to invite up governor jerry brown director of operation for muni to provide us with an just want and get us to one piece to the semen vehicles. >> thank you, supervisor wiener and supervisor kim it's a pleasure to be here again, i have the opportunity to talk about what happening in realtime meaning to improve the system we're at a pivotal or transition moment because part of what you referred to over the loose couple of years we've made with our help a

districts that are still over the suggested threshold of 45 still residential true so i think at woody allen one way for the convenience of deciding the administrative review of this ordinance i hear what you're saying. >> yes. by convenience we're here to make laws and do it in a way that's not capricious i think that it would be interesting to know whether there's some kind of uniform in the per capita basis just the flub of districts there's new districts and do they have chargdz and they effect the make up of the business so it might be we're disadvantaging the districts because we're using the same number in all districts i'm not pro smoking but you perhaps - and in terms of it may not be convenient but i hear what you're saying and that's why there are exemptions to allow the current holders to maintain the business that's over attrition not effecting the businesses. >> not apparent requirement other than a side conversation with the mixed use it is capricious the way it's late out. >> again i'll have my colleague follow-up on that particular point. >> commissioner white. >> yes. commi

neighborhood and walk around. thank you. >> is there any additional public comment? >> hello, allen beach nelson president of the castro valley neighborhood association. 20-year resident of the neighborhood. when i first moved to the neighborhood, the only thing there was to do in the neighborhood was drink. there were hardly any coffee shops. the fact that there has been an explosion of coffee shops. a year 1/2 ago i did a survey of the neighborhood and we only had four coffee shops. there have been some additions lately but that's a good thing particularly for those of us who are not getting older but who have some experience who don't want to go out to bars and we want to have coffee and those that are sober. our planning and land use committee met with phil and discussed the project and they made a recommendation to the board because it is a formula retail project and the board also highways to take a -- has to take a vote n on the project. it's in the castro area 1. phil has a connection to philanthropy which is close to me. the proposed plan to the location seems like an appropriate

believe that woody allen is where i want to downsize this building one is slithering larger and more sensitive to 3 stories rather than 4 stories to massing that is underway very extensively a building to its max the buildings are older in massing that are indeed remnant of two forms sent of whatever the matter it this building is it is what it is it t so if we're entertaining to approving two units i'll ask the architect takes a different approach with some guidance to perhaps a unit mix of a slightly larger family unit and one which is marginal that deals with more variety in massing and site and overall massing expressions completely eliminating 9 idea of thinking about urging the roof of the fourth floor to come up with some that is indeed for compatible with a small-scale neighborhood that's my idea for sending this project back and asking it to be spent more time on the neighborhood concerns that were well expressed and sensitive but this building is not approval without taxiing dr i courage the architect this this commission is open to the two unit building in an each other un

and i'm allen i'm jennifer's dad and i'm going to initially make one correction the newspaper reports when they first came out about jennifer's passing said that i was of new york well that's a long time ago i've lived in san francisco for the past 6 years and i'm just so very happy i'm out here and look forward to spending the rest of my life here i want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been so supportive and the friendship and with attitude and with every fiber of their being from so many different sources and so many different areas that have helped jennifer and helped our family during this very difficult period. the people here in city government, the folks at the port authority, the people the people at the san francisco giants who cooperated with that race over 340 $340,000 for the pancreas center at ucsf and the folks at the golden state warriors who have been close friends of jennifer during this process and i really think that jennifer's spirit now is with the giants and the kwar i the warrior's and will continue to be so and the staff at the schools for on

before it magically appeared at (inaudible) and it rings a bell, the same bell that allen (inaudible) lawsuit, that to the supreme court is still making up its mind whether it is going to hear. that lawsuit was filed, that the ethics commission ever having discussed it first. and these drafts recommendations regarding the task force referrals, one would think, a reasonable person would think that you are taking action. but you have not taken any action, because you have not even discussed it yet, in a meeting. so, it seems to me, that the cart is before the horse, again. you need to tighten up these processes. >> next on the aagenda is presentation by the code for america's sf brigade. >> steven, are you going to make a introduction. >> as you may recall, last month, we gave a presentation about the individualization projects that i have been working on as part of the staff and today we have some members of a community group called the sfbrigade, which is part of code for america. and they have been working on a similar project, and they have been using our open data, website to acce

cindy wu: thank you. next speaker? >> good afternoon commissioners. my name is allen nelson. i live in the neighborhood. the discussion on this project with extensive outreach, in fact we did an unprecedented thing. we for the first time ever put a vote to all the membership. normally it's 10 percent of the membership, if they show up to the meeting we base that attendance on the 10 percent. we ended up doing an online audited vote and i'm happy to say that we had 60 percent turnout about triple what our last election had and out of that election, 3-1 was in favor of this project. so that was 109 people in favor of it, 42 opposed to it and for that reason, we strongly support this project. one of the thing we did talk about was ensuring that the community had some safe guards above and beyond just the standard condition of use. so two members of our former planning committee chair and our current planning committee chair worked on -- on a set of committed use to have to the overall commissioned use. they drafted them and we negotiated and to be perfectly honest he accepted all of them
