the city's prerogative what to do with those buildings >> i'm sure they've be responsible. in terms of our housing needs it sounds like you're able to meet the housing needs of students and other faculty within our sites? >> correct. >> >> not having to have students housing out far away. you're able to lease buildings to be able to accommodate everyone >> thank you very much. >> thank you for this presentation it covered a lot of land and i really appreciate the

clarity around the brick buildings. it does certain me if you're not going to fix the buildings i don't know where the city is going to get the resources to fix them. can you talk about the health care obamacare is actually effecting the hospital. we had this discussion a couple of weeks ago >> i can speak in jeopardy we have 5 hundred plus beds we'll be growing our bed frame by 2 hundred beds at mission bay. we have the capacity to build other 2 hundred and 61 beds by

as i said earlier we don't plan it construct those beds within the 20035 timeframe. now as far as what the obamacare act is doing to our facilities it presents certain financial concerns, however, our medical center s has no plan on retrenching. we have been working with the center in oakland so as opposed to our footprint we hope to maintain our patient care programs. and at mounting sdooen we'll expand our footprint there and that will help in terms of our clinic revenues.

so at this point in time we - our major clinic sites will remain at mission bay and at mt. sdooen and the awe - >> great and i talked about transportation and i just wonder if you, you, you know, you gave us a lot of information and their commuting habits to the hospital do i have that similar data for patients? i'm curious how much that is >> yes, we have gathered data open our patient and visitors

traffic. however, it's a bit outdated and we're in the process of updating that information but in general our patients tend to drive more. given their impaired health. however, our patients do use the shuttles. and so our parking strategy has been focused on trying to accommodate argue patient needs first and then our employee and students need >> we're going looking at the increase in outpatient how we look at transportation service in th corridor.

to the extent you do collect data there's an issue going on looking at transportation in the future and these are the kind of things we need to take into consideration. i'm glad you, you talked about the beds. i'd love to hear our thoughts l about - there was a conversation about there's more focus on putting them into the community and if there's a philosophy on that >> we haven't made any decisions about the offense beds. >> i like your conversation about the heights and scale and i think that's something not

specific to your projects but this commission has struggled with. to the extent that your staff could be collaborate around those issues. san francisco general are not necessarily those distinct we could do something to enhance the neighborhood around mission bay to give it more character. and in terms of laurel heights you said that you've put out requests for developers i want to know whereer >> we issued qualifications in december and we are following up

that review those proposals and are following up that our r f q to a short us of developer teams and we'll be receiving those proposals later this - later in the spring. and then by the summer we'll make some sort of decision. and when you issued that request was it pretty generic? just curious about the kind of projects you - >> we didn't specify what kinds of used for the site. i would note to the current zoning is r m-1. it is a residential zoned property. so the question is would a

developer submit a plan that conforms to that zoning or would it require rezoning? we're obviously trying to optimize any revenue we might receive from that property but we know it's a a sensitive neighborhood >> your state and we're look like obviously it's different. obviously revenue is a driving factor in our decision. but with staff and others kind of the types of things the city is looking for it will make it a

smoother process >> my colleague melissa white is the director of the relations and she's working hand in hand with your staff as well as with the neighbors. >> great well, thank you and a thank you. >> thank you for the presentation i had some questions on laurel heights too. it's interesting your selecting a developer when you haven't found out what the preferences is of the city. are they coming to you now with the program you recognize it's an r m-1 zone area. when we get those larger lands

of developments we recognize bigger block size buildings. you know, he tend to get the mission bay solution which is a block size development of housing which i don't know would be appropriate for this site. i'm concerned as i go through that process the development doesn't get too far ahead of the development and a please be assured we will not let the process get ahead. we totally understand that in order for anybody to be successful we need a win-win. win for the city, the university and the community. >> i would imagine all the developers are looking at the

housing. >> i'm not in the position to describe by i'd like that housing is a logic thing for the site. i don't know what the specifics are at this point >> right and a there's ail kinds of opportunities to developing that site and we're open to discussing with developers. >> i would like to see the city get involved now. >> right. we've met with ken rich from the mayor's office to get the input >> and then one question it's an amazing amount of the 20 thousand employees do you know where they live and commuting from what sites? for over 50 of

our employees live in san francisco and many of them come from the east bay and the south bay but i don't know what the adjoining counties. >> i'd like to echo the concerns that are raised in regards to laurel height and it's just? general where developments s are planned and their sort of laid out and they don't come to the commission until their pretty much planned. so i think that single homes are the best thing to develop in

that area. my other comment is about the 16th corridor but also the other development at mission bay i think that has to be looked at and hopefully, we'll work p with mta to have a robust transportation system in there to be able to make it easier for people to move from the inner sunset and having to go all the way down market and that's a nature commuting corridor multiple times per day for people we need to plan this >> i just wanted to. >> tracy: thank you for a theory presentation and make a

comment apparently, this mta plan is what the commission expects other to come. >> just a quick follow-up question. on your process i realize you're not necessarily solemnly swear to a developing agency. during the process of selection is your process does that become public during the process or after >> we're treating this as a real estate process so that's confidential. >> we're keeping the community and city informed of our progress. >> thank you very much. >> commissioners that will

place you under item 7 ground water distribution system. written draft will be expect until april in the latter month >> i'm tim i'm with the virile section of the planning department. this project is one of the survival that is the larger water system program. here with me today is jeff who is the director of the project. heel briefly describe some of the features of the proposed

project. i'll follow-up with any public comment. jeff will have his power point up and ready in a second. >> good afternoon commissioners i've jeff i'm the project manager for the proposed ground water project i work in the san francisco water resources division. i'd like to provided you with an overview today

>> today most of the san francisco drinks a blend of surface water from our local reservoirs. we currently don't use a local or san francisco source of drinking water and while it's pumped it's used for non-potential water not for drinking at the zoo. i want to take a moment to talk about the water system improvement program because the san francisco grounded water project is part of the program it's approved by san francisco voters in november 2002 and the san francisco planning depth

certified the program. it has a water supply strategy and it has a limitation on the surface water we can get from our watersheds. we also any other time conservatism and developing new water supplies. the proposed water project would develop a new local water supply source would increase the overall reliability of our water system. now local ground water has been developed to use in other counties for over 60 years it's not new. over 80 percent of people in

california obtain their water supply and we have this as emergency drinking water in an earthquake. the san francisco grounded water supply project proposed to pump it from west side basin. there are two other proposed projects in the west side basin that a that a that are interrelated. the first is the regional grounded storage project that's a san francisco commission project that would supply water supply during multiple dry periods. you'll have a public hearing on that next month.

the next practice writing project is a daily city project and part of that would provided a supplemental supply of water and the daily city realized a notation for the project on february 28th so it's currently under review and the public can comment on that. this map shows the extent to the water we have in place and since the 1990s who san francisco utilize commission perpetrated this we've recognized the grounded water basin can be managed in a sustainable manner. and in cooperation with our

partner agencies in the northern san mate a 0 county. to manage the san francisco basin we have 17 wells and in san francisco our prim focus of the monitoring program is in the city of san mar. again, i said our goal is to sustain this in is manageable manner. we've developed a technical understanding of the ground water basin. this slide summarizes the basin.

the proposed project would pump up to 4 million gallon. the phase four ones are orange. this would convey the ground water where it will be blended with the regional water system. the lake merced the southern more one on the moop would be checked by a short length the pips where the blended water would be pumped to two

reservoirs using existing pipelines. after the ground water is belligerent it would be distributed to 60 percent of folks in southern california. so most of the water on the west side and the people he receiving the water would be the blind of water. this blend of water would continue to exceed all drinking water standards and it's our standards with the water system. now for a more delighted pipeline routes i'll start with the sunshine districts and golden gate park. those would be relatively small

with a footprint about 15 hundred square feet and the building heights would be between 12 feet and 16 and a half street. those would be installed in the streets great grounded. construction of the well facilities would consist of underground facilities. the duration would be about 15 to 18 months of facility. some construction would be under gone. construction of the pipelines would mainly use the trenching method would progress at a rate of 6 hundred or two weeks per

city bloke. and the method would be used at the two intersections of 41 accounting avenue and the muni light rail lines are the duration of those two intersection is about 4 weeks. also the project will construct a ph lawsuit building on the west side of our sunset avenue. now to go through each well facility in a little bit more detail. this shows the over ail facility it would be located in the northeast corner of the parking lot. the particular cases associated

with it the athletic playing fields it's not currently used for parking and the existing parking is that a would be for our new handicapped parking is that a. we'll have to concrete dividers so we can have a storage place. their mainly stored right now in the stockpile area. this would also have - the south sunset well facility will be in the south side of the play grounded area it's near the intersection of walnut street. that's area is outside of the

actual field of play and bleach and stuff. the lake merced facility would be near the pump station this is san francisco public lawsuit property and it's near the eastern side of merced. the well facility includes an overlook along merced boulevard which would include benches. now the 3 facilities we propose in golden gate park. as part of phase one of the

project we would construct the pump facility that's on the far right on the pap ma and a little more of one mile of pipeline and phase two would convert the irrigation well facilities and a little less than one mile of pipeline. the central pump station would be located in the central south of overlook drive and east of the middle drive west of the intersection. this is indirectly adjacent to the pump station when is golden gate parks reservation stoernl. and that general facility includes the wood waste posting yard. the landscaping and all the new

assess road would have permissible materials. because this is located near the golden gate pump station they can furnish a back up pump to the park. the south park pump would be north of martin luther king drive that is used for construction of log and construction debris. it would allow the replacement of the existing building. we would utilize the irrigation back up irrigation part to the park.
