Board of Appeals grants Shotwell Street appeal, removes fence and gate from permit
Summary
The San Francisco Board of Appeals granted an appeal over an alteration permit for 670 Shotwell Street and modified the permit to remove a fence and gate from the scope of work after the parties reached an agreement facilitated by the Planning Department.
The San Francisco Board of Appeals on March 5 granted an appeal and modified an alteration permit for 670 Shotwell Street to remove a fence and gate from the scope of work, the board said at its meeting.
The action responds to an appeal of an alteration permit issued Jan. 3, 2025 (permit no. 202409170992) to Beth Miles for work at 670 Shotwell Street. The board’s executive director, Julie Lamar, told commissioners the parties had reached an agreement and asked the board to grant the appeal and modify the permit to remove the fence and gate because those elements are built entirely on the permit holder’s property and do not require a building permit.
President Transvinha read the agreed motion on the record and moved to grant the appeal and modify the permit. Vice President JR Epler, Commissioner Rick Swig and Commissioner Lopez voted in favor; the motion carried 4–0.
Corey Teague, the Planning Department’s zoning administrator, is recorded as helping to facilitate the agreement. Julie Lamar said the parties will need to submit a revised drawing eliminating the fence; she said a special conditions permit will be required but no fee would be charged to process that drawing.
The board’s action modifies the original permit by removing the fence and gate from the authorized scope of work. The board did not otherwise alter the permit’s authorization for the exterior door described in the original permit record.
The board concluded the item after the 4–0 vote and moved on to the next calendar item.
