Board of Appeals Hearing, June 7, 2023

 On April 26, 2023, the Board of Appeals (“BOA”) heard Appeal No. 23-008, an appeal by Friends of the Mission Greenway of a building permit issued to 17th and Peralta LLC to replace a fence at 957 Treat Avenue (popularly known as “Parcel 36”).   The BOA granted the appeal unanimously, with the support of both the Planning Department and the Department of Building Inspection because 17th and Peralta LLC, was not the owner of record for 957 Treat Avenue. Parcel 36 has no apparent owner of record and multiple parties seek to utilize the space, including both parties to the appeal.  The Commissioners will consider a draft letter to be sent on behalf of the BOA to Mayor Breed, Supervisor Ronen, President Peskin and relevant City departments requesting that they intervene in the dispute between the public and property owners adjacent to Parcel 36, and take a proactive role in resolving the ambiguous ownership status of Parcel 36.
