Board approves compromise on 1268 Lombard conditional‑use appeal; imposes additional conditions
Summary
After parties reached a negotiated agreement, the Board closed a hearing on the conditional‑use permit at 1268 Lombard Street, adopted a motion incorporating additional conditions, and directed findings be prepared.
The Board of Supervisors on May 3 opened and closed a hearing on a contested conditional‑use authorization for property at 1268 Lombard Street after the project sponsor and appellants reached a negotiated settlement.
Supervisor Farrell told the board the appellant and project sponsor had agreed that, if the board imposed additional conditions listed in a signed agreement, the appellant would not pursue its appeal. A representative of the appellant (Russian Hill Neighbors) confirmed the agreement on the record, and the project sponsor’s architect likewise confirmed the parties had signed the document and waived further presentations. The board asked for members of the public opposed to the project; none stepped forward. Supervisor Farrell moved to disapprove the Planning Commission’s conditional‑use authorization as issued, to add the parties’ agreed additional conditions and to grant conditional‑use authorization subject to the added conditions, and to direct the clerk to prepare findings. The motion was seconded by Supervisor Mercarimi and adopted on roll call (11 ayes recorded).
Speakers who appear in the meeting record on this item include Supervisor Farrell, a representative identified as Frankl for Russian Hill Neighbors (appellant), and architect Toby Morris for the project sponsor. The board closed the hearing and approved the motion to implement the negotiated conditions.
The clerk was directed to prepare findings consistent with the board’s action.
