Board continues 669 San Jose Avenue legalization to June 26 to allow fire sign‑off
Summary
Archheon Construction asked for a short continuance to secure outstanding Fire Department signoffs on a permit to legalize a ground‑floor unit at 669 San Jose Avenue; the board continued the matter to June 26, 2019, to allow the applicant time to complete corrections.
The San Francisco Board of Appeals on May 8 continued an appeal tied to a permit at 669 San Jose Avenue to June 26, 2019, after the permit holder said the only remaining requirement before issuance was Fire Department sign‑off.
Andres Moussouras of Archheon Construction told the board that Planning and other departments had signed off on the work to legalize an existing ground‑floor unit and that the outstanding items were limited to fire‑department corrections submitted in May 2018. He asked for two to three weeks to obtain the fire signature; planning and DBI staff said they supported either an administrative cancellation if the applicant preferred or a short continuance to allow the applicant to resolve the outstanding corrections.
Commissioner Daryl Honda moved to continue the appeal to June 26, 2019, to give the applicant time to obtain the fire department’s sign‑off; the board approved the continuance 4‑0. Planning and DBI staff told the board they want to see the legalization proceed quickly to ensure required safety measures—such as sprinklers and correct water supply—are installed before the unit is occupied.
The continuance leaves the door open for the applicant to withdraw the appeal if the permit is finalized earlier or for DBI to administratively cancel the pending appeal if the permit holder secures approvals and no appeal is needed.
