holiday.File 010507. From: Supervisor Yee To: City Attorney Requesting/Inquiring: To draft legislation amending the April 29, 1975 Agreement between San Francisco and the
Department of the Interior, National Park Service.The amendment should specify that the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA) must consult the City in the areas of planning, land
use planning and regulation of recreational use.The City should be consulted about any changes on the land or changes in use on the land. The language should also reflect that changes
include fence construction, closing off any portions of the land to any kind of recreational use, any changes on the allowance or disallowance of any sort of recreational use, and any
changes in policy which affect San Franciscans who use the land for recreation.Expand notification to include the Board of Supervisors and reflect that consultation should occur at the
earliest possible stage in the planning process and should allow for the City to hold an appropriately noticed public hearing if necessary.Failure of the GGNRA to reach agreement on this
issue will result in the City initiating an action seeking reversion of the property to City. From: Supervisor Yee To: City Attorney Requesting/Inquiring: That the City Attorney,
in concert with the Director of Department of Parking and Traffic and the Chief of Police draft legislation amending the Traffic Code to expand the street closure notification process so
