2. CHAIR REPORT
Given the passing of Chair Redmond Kernan, there was a need to elect a new Chair and Vice Chair of the Work Group. By general acclamation Don Green was elected Chair and Becky Evans Vice-Chair. Mr. Green said he was happy to accept, but it was with sadness that Redmond Kernan was not here to see the process through to completion.
The draft had not yet been sent to city departments. Ms. Stephanie said she would send the current version to MTA and Planning.
The main business of the day was the final review of the group’s report. Language refinements were discussed; the differences between “square footage,” “footprint,” and “hard-scape” of proposed new construction on the Main Post was considered.
There was unanimous acclaim for Doug Kern’s work producing draft after draft of the committee report which included everyone’s research and contributions in a document with unity and structure.
It was moved by Ms. Evans that the report as amended be adopted as the work product that the group all agreed upon. The motion was seconded by Mr. Holland and approved unanimously.
3. PUBLIC COMMENT
Catherine Stephanie of Supervisor Alioto-Pier’s office was thanked for her assistance to the committee. Jan Blum presented her with a maternity present on behalf of the group.
4. ADJOURNMENT
Chair Don Green adjourned the meeting at 1:45 p.m.
