Planning staff unveils draft Proposition C office-conversion inventory; public comment open through Aug. 19
Summary
The department published a draft inventory of 29 office conversions/demolitions that could be credited back to San Francisco’s office cap under Proposition C, totaling roughly 2.5 million square feet; staff solicited public review through Aug. 19.
San Francisco — Planning Department staff presented a draft inventory on July 25 listing 29 sites of office conversion or demolition that may be credited back to the city’s Office Development Annual Limit Program under Proposition C. The draft inventory, first published July 18 and updated July 25 to add dates, totals slightly more than 2.5 million square feet of potential credits.
Andrew Perry, presenting for the zoning administrator, said the draft includes conversions ranging from the 10,000 sq ft minimum up to 421,000 sq ft for the conversion at 100 Van Ness. The draft shows a 3-to-1 split in favor of conversions over demolitions and identifies 10 sites with conversions or demolitions at or under 50,000 sq ft and nine sites above 100,000 sq ft.
Staff asked the public to review the draft for missing projects or square-footage discrepancies. The public comment period is open through Aug. 19 at cpc.propositionc@sfgov.org; staff noted that projects missed in this round can be reviewed and added in future allocation cycles.
Commissioners asked why Proposition C uses a 1986 cutoff for eligible conversions; staff replied that the date comes from the ballot measure language, not the zoning administrator. Staff committed to accept and research public corrections prior to the final inventory publication.
