Recreation and Parks Department (File No. 18072) FACTS OF THE CASE The following petition/complaint was filed with the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force (SOTF): File No. 18072: Complaint filed by Joshua Klipp against the Recreation and Parks Department for allegedly violating Administrative Code (Sunshine Ordinance), Section 67.21, by failing to respond to a public records request in a timely and/or complete manner. HEARING ON THE COMPLAINT On September 25, 2018 the Complaint Committee, acting in its capacity to hear petitions/complaints heard the matter. Joshua Klipp (Petitioner) provided a summary of his complaint and requested the Committee find a violation. Mr. Klipp stated that that he received a response in a timely manner but the four Clocuments provided by Recreation and Parks were inadequate. Mr. Klipp stated that Recreation and Parks either does not have the requested records and the responses provided were fabricated. Mr. Klipp stated that he does not believe that did not receive any records prior to 2012 the Recreation and Parks' documents were entirely made up and Recreation and Parks did not respond to his request. Tiffany Lin-Wilson, Recreation and Parks (Respondent) provided a summary of the Department's position. Ms. Lin-Wilson stated that she compiled the information requested and that she does not work on the strategic plan. Ms. Lin­ Wilson stated she collected relevant records from staff and provided them to Mr. Klipp. Ms. Lin-Wilson stated that most of the information requested is available on the Recreation and Parks Capital and Planning Department website. Ms. Lin­ Wilson stated that the reports provided to Mr. Klipp were created by Kelley Cornell which include work force budget, health and diversity of the urban forest and other related information. PB Chair Wolfe requested that the Kelley Cornell or person knowledgeable of the requested records attend the SOTF hearing and be prepared to answer questions. Member Hinze, seconded by Member Cate, moved to refer the matter to the SOTF for hearing and requested Kelley Cornell be present to provided information related to the public records request and why records prior to 2012 were not provided. On April 3, 2019, the SOTF held a hearing to review the recommendation from Complaint Committee and/or to review the merits of the petition/complaint. Joshua Klipp (Petitioner) provided a summary of the complaint and requested the Committee to find a violation. Mr. Klipp stated that every year the Urban Forestry Council creates a report based on a questionnaire that is sent out to public entities, such as Recreation and Park, and is made publicly available. Mr. Klipp stated that the information provided by Recreation and Park was inadequate in that there was no supporting documentation. Dennis Kern, Director of Operations (Recreation and Parks), (Respondent), provided a summary of the department's position. Mr. Kern stated that the Complainant requested documents from the previous ten years that do not exist. Mr. Kern stated that the Complainant had been provided all the documents maintain by Recreation and Parks. Mr. Kern stated that the Parks had been in a tree reactive routine (removing more trees than planting). Mr. Kern stated that he supervises 12 arborists, 10 gardeners, 4 laborers but does not have any clerical staff in his urban forestry unit. Mr. Kern stated that Mr. Klipp had been provided the Strategic Plan. A question and answer period occurred. The Respondent and the Complainant provided rebuttals. The SOTF opined that records including but not limited to arborist tree plantings, removals, location, source of tree, personal injuries, storm damage should be tracked and provided. FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSION OF LAW Based on the testimony and evidence presented, the SOTF found that the Recreation and Parks Department violated Administrative Code (Sunshine Ordinance), Section 67.21 (b)(e). pg DECISION AND ORDER OF DETERMINATIONS On April 3, 2019, Chair Wolfe, seconded by Vice-Chair Hyland, moved to find that the Department of Recreation and Parks viola,ted Administrative Code (Sunshine Ordinance), Sections 67.21(b) and 67.21(e), by failing to make documents available in a timely and complete manner and referred the matter to the Compliance and Amendments Committee to ensure that Recreation and Parks Department provides the requested documents other than those already provided to Joshua Klipp (Urban Forestry Council).

  • Central Soma Plan Draft
    CHAPTER VI Alternatives CHAPTER VI Alternatives VI.A Introduction The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15126.6(a), state that an environmental impact report (EIR) must describe and evaluate a reasonable range of alternatives to the proposed project that would feasibly attain most of the project’s basic objectives, but that would avoid or substantially lessen any identified significant adverse environmental effects of the project. An EIR is not required to consider every conceivable alternative to a proposed project and is not required to consider alternatives that are infeasible. Rather, it must consider a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives that will foster informed decision-making and public participation. The EIR must evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives and include sufficient information about each alternative to allow meaningful evaluation, analysis, and comparison with the proposed project. Specifically, the CEQA Guidelines set forth the following additional criteria for selecting and evaluating alternatives: ● [T]he discussion of alternatives shall focus on alternatives to the project or its location which are capable of avoiding or substantially lessening any significant effects of the project, even if these alternatives would impede to some degree the attainment of the project objectives, or would be more costly. (Section 15126.6(b)) ● The range of potential alternatives shall include those that could feasibly accomplish most of the basic objectives of the project and could avoid or substantially lessen one or more of the significant effects. (Section 15126.6(c)) ● The specific alternative of “no project” shall also be evaluated along with its impact. (Section 15126.6(e)(1)) ● The alternatives shall be limited to ones that would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project.

    WHAT Architect WHERE Notes Zone 1: Fisherman’s Warf and the Piers + North Beach Pier 39 is a shopping center and popular tourist attraction built in 1978. The marina is also home to the floating Forbes Island restaurant. The sea lions at Pier 39 have become a tourist attraction in their own right. Although the reason for their migration to the pier *** Pier 39 Warren Simmons Pier 39 is unclear, the refurbishing of the docks in September 1989 required the removal of all boats from that area, leaving large open spaces for the sea lions to move into. Once the project was completed, boat owners returned, but did their best to navigate around the sea lions; no efforts were made to encourage the new guests to leave. Aquarium of the Bay was built in 1996 as an aquarium. It added additional attractions to the original building and has 273 species and more than 60,000 fish. Sharks circle overhead, manta rays sweep by and seaweed sways all around at the Aquarium of the Bay, where you * Aquarium of the Bay ?

General admission $27.95. Mon-Sun (10am-6pm) A few California sea lions began “hauling out” on PIER 39’s K-Dock shortly after the Loma Prieta earthquake hit San Francisco in October 1989. By January 1990, the boisterous barking pinnipeds started to *** Sea Lion Colony - Pier 39 arrive in droves and completely took over K-Dock, much to the exasperation of PIER 39’s Marina tenants.

Additional portions may also be copyrighted by the individuals who generated those portions. 2004 Journal, San Francisco Field Ornithologists 2 2004 San Francisco City Highlights David Armstrong and Hugh Cotter 2004 was a good year for birding in San Francisco with a total of 274 species being recorded within the City boundaries. While spring and fall migrations were not the best in recent years, with very few “typical” vagrant warblers seen, there were a number of excellent birds recorded within the City limits. New species added to the City List in 2004 included; Eurasian Collared Dove in April, Dickcissel in September and Laughing Gull in December. The second confirmed City record of Lapland Longspur was found in October as were the third and fourth known records of White-winged Dove. It was also a good year for normally rare City species such as Harlequin Duck and Blue-winged Teal which appeared in above normal numbers. Also of note was the confirmation of California Gull breeding on Alcatraz Island, the first record outside of the tip of Alameda NWR that is in San Francisco County and one of very few breeding records for San Francisco.
