The Project will result in a net increase of one dwelling unit on the property as part of a four-story, three-family dwelling. The Project requires Conditional Use Authorization pursuant to Board File No. 201370 because it does not provide the maximum residential density that is principally permitted and proposes to increase a dwelling unit to greater than 2,000 square feet. The subject property is located within a RM-1 (Residential, Mixed – Low Density) Zoning District and a 40-X Height & Bulk District. A Planning Commission approval at the public hearing would constitute the Approval Action for the project for the purposes of CEQA, pursuant to San Francisco Administrative Code Section 31.04(h).

On April 24, 2020, the City and County of San Francisco entered into a Development Agreement with California Barrel Company LLC for the Potrero Power Station Mixed-Use Development Project. This Reserve requires that the new office development authorized by the Planning Commission be a component of a project that meets certain affordable housing production and/or in-lieu fee payment requirements. For projects developed in multiple phases under a development agreement, this requirement is based on the total amount of affordable housing that would be produced by the project upon the completion of all phases.

The Planning Commission certified the EIR and CEQA findings for the Potrero Power Station Mixed-Use Development project on January 30, 2020.
