4128 24th STREET (aka the BJ Droubi House) - the north side of 24th Street, between Diamond and Castro Streets, Block 2831, Lot 009 - Request for Conditional Use Authorization, pursuant to Planning Code Section 728 to convert the existing, ground floor office space to a full-service restaurant, totaling approximately 350 square feet (dba “Noe Soup:). The full service restaurant would employ two persons and operate from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. six days a week. The property is within the 24th Street -- Noe Valley Neighborhood Commercial and a 40-X height and bulk District.

Preliminary Recommendation: Approval with Conditions.

Note: This is likely the last of three additional restaurant permits granted to Noe Valley in 2005. The other two are Contigo and the "high end Vietnamese fusion."

Next up: the Noe Bagel building:

3931-3933 - 24TH STREET – south side between Sanchez and Noe Streets; Lot 035 in Assessor’s Block 6508 - Request for Conditional Use Authorization, pursuant to Planning Code Section 303, 161(j), 728.52, and 790.116, to allow the construction of one new dwelling-unit with no off-street parking, and to allow a personal service on the second floor in the 24th Street – Noe Valley Neighborhood Commercial District and 40-X Height and Bulk District.

Preliminary Recommendation: Approval with Conditions

This last one is not Noe Valley specific, but follows up on a previous post:

Requirement of Conditional Use authorization for any permit application to remove dwelling units. Board File No. 081088. This Ordinance introduced by Supervisor McGoldrick would amend Ordinance amending the Planning Code by amending Section 317 to require Conditional Use authorization for any elimination of existing dwelling units through mergers, conversions, or demolitions of residential units; making environmental findings; and findings of consistency with the City's General Plan and Planning Code Section 101.1.

Preliminary Recommendation: Disapproval.
