we know we will be heard from from our experts on a legal side. a lot of them can really add up here this gentleman again had heard about a situation where someone had already racked up $40,000 with of legal fees. became an issue. we are not talking about what it costs to fix up which in itself would be excess of, but also the legal component. your word of mouth and the people you know will really help. and, of course, to our media folks, people will read your articles and understand that they can really do a lot to protect their businesses early on. >> i just want to add one comment about getting our association involved. we put together a really great training. we have a panel available to you.

it is only going to cost you $35 for a 30-minute conversation, and that might be the best $35 you have already spent to avoid something that will be happening in the future. that is just part of the collaborative process with supervisor chu's office, and i am very grateful to her. there is a panel of lawyers that have all attended training and know-how to represent businesses and give you some expert advice. >> when we were first looking at the issue and working with different systems, we realize that there was an issue with how you get loans to be able to make those improvements, how you get expertise to help walk you through what you're supposed to respond to. one of the components we saw that was missing was that legal component. how do we find lawyers -- where can i find quick information --

it is not very typical that someone already automatically knows a lawyer who can help them, so they might not know who to reach out to. they really put together a huge effort to train their lawyers that they become experts in this topic. that is something that i think is really important. as julie manchin, there is a $35 consultation that is available -- as julie mentioned. >> any other questions? there are multiple languages available. vietnamese, tagalog, chinese. just to let you can receive assistance from some very qualified individuals. >> any other questions? if not, thank you very much for

coming. [applause] >> we very pleased that mayor lee is here today and building is strong foundation for the future of the airport and now my

pleasure to introduce mayor lee. thank you john and thank you to you and the airport commission and all the staff here at the airport for loopholes working hard to make sure this engine of opportunity is for everybody. i'm joined by representative from congresswoman thank you for being here and, of course, richard our commissioners is here as well and than mr. mac who is part of the labor council. i think we'll have quilts from the board of supervisors from both couldn't. you know something we despair a little bit over jobs. they get to continue bragging they have is an unemployment rate lower than ourselves but

that's because the airport is booming. and everybody's is investing in this year. looking behind me it's always been about peculiar i know this airport is a huge generate of work a huge amount of folks come there here and it's a big asset. not too many months ago we opened up terminal two and i & i've often said it feels like a first class lobby. johnny ask when i do the red eyes a lot of your goat to have those jogging art stations open

after 10 but that will mean more jobs. and i will say that this $4.1.10 year capital plan is yet again another strong strong demonstration of our airports thinking ahead. it's an airport that's on water so it continually has to update itself and deal with seawall rise sea level rise. it has to build new facilities. the airport runways have to be invested in and the buildings themselves whether we get a new control tower oreo do the old terminal it looks like all

terminals feel the same way. john did a fabulous job in making sure our labor forces throughout the area feel directly involved. it's a humanely economical engine you'll say that billion dollars and the new buildings but the $14. billion will have a large number of the construction jobs and the engineering designing jobs as well as the concession vendors that reflect the diversity of our airport. i like coming to the airport when i'm traveling more and more those days and others for the

america's cup and the data breakers and all the different summer events many, many thousands of people will come through the airport. it's modern and save and has the highest level of technology and safety for everyone. we keep that for most in our minds as we approach the modernization. i'm detailed to mountains this i had a 10 year infrastructure plan for the city and once we get those plans out then the conversation starts to get to the place where the airport is

one of the biggest investments. our airport dpements with every visitor who comes here they feel welcome and you see that reflected in the signage. a 10 year capital plan means we have articulated for our immediate year we have the investments and the other cities around the bay area we're invest in this very great asset. same thing we do with our water system and our great art institutions. we plan ahead and involve everybody and get them to buy into our assets and the whole region. i want to thank the commission

and the staff, of course, and their corpse partners as well. i want to thank you all the other city agencies that come together whether it's police and fire we see working here very much alive in the evolution of safety on the water or runways. everybody has to work together on these and i know once you review the details you'll see how investment friendly and the future of the airport come alive as the great innovation capita of the united states. thank you, very much john for your work (clapping) >> thank you, mayor lee. as the mayor i said we're going to take the t e levels in the

airport to create that experience in terminal 1, 2, and 3 and making an international terminal had opened. when this opened in 2011 it became a stated for airports worldwide that has conveniences unique amenity like the yogurt room. it has $14.50 per passenger. we want to continue to make those improvements for the convenience of travelers. boarding area e we're here right

now and this will opulence a year from now. and it will handle united airlines. we're going to improve the center checkpoint in terminal 3 and expand the front gate as well. shortly after the competition of this building we're going to do terminal b. terminal one will be valve improved and fanned and the t two experience will be carried throughout the whole airport. we look for the lobby area to be

improved. we're very pleased as well to be moving forward on a four-star hotel 4 hundred rooms the air train system has been designed to stop right in front of the a bordering area the same area where the hilton used to be. and this project will be completed in three to four years. i want to thank the staff for putting this together so quickly. and it insures a high-level of

performance and thank you to the staff who helps to us make this large investment. and thank you as well to our labor partners bill knapp we have an outstanding relationship to insure that labor is continued on the big projects. we have an excellent partner with our strong supporter and here chief of staff is here >> good morning. i'm brian i'm the district chief for our congresswoman. we offered mr. bart's the

opportunity to reschedule this but our congress woman says thank you, mayor lee we have to recognize this is the congress woman's great pleasure to represent those areas. and thank you to the airport director john martin she considers him brilliant. she wanted phone calls to know this new decade will see the airport for having seen for travelers. there will be a nice hotel and it will make san francisco airport itself is great designation. it will create jobs and this has a massive ripple effect on the area. we know we think the airport is

always under construction that's because the economy is changing. this will be your decade in the sun congratulations. (clapping) >> thank you brian, of course, the - i'm sorry the airport is owned by the city and county of 70 but we're a strong partnership. we're happy supervisor pine is here to say a few words. supervisor >> good morning. it is a pleasure to be here in the county to talk about the renovation of this incredible airport. on behalf of the county board of

supervisors we couldn't be more satisfied with this airport. it's a key xhieconomical engine. as the airport expands tens of thousands of our citizens work here and we're thrilled to see the airport modernize. also i need to speak on behalf of the regional. i think we're all aware with the global competition the bay area has to compete with other airports. i don't see many airports like san francisco international. we're one of the few airports in

the nation that are keeping pace with our competitors. i thank the city for your forsythe in making sure we can compete internationally. and finally one request we should say welcome to san mateo county >> thank you. thank you commissioner for being here today, we have an amazing airport director staff. to you appreciate your support. we're going to go out and take a look at the rendering out front. so thank you. again for being here

>> great for see you all here, i am the director and it is a profound pleasure to welcome you all to this ground breaking this morning. we are thrilled that you could join us, this is a defining moment in our history and it is

great to have you with us. and i have to say before i begin, that the first person to arrive this morning, for the ground breaking was one of our trustees, brooks walker. and books arrival reminded me that 20 years ago, almost exactly, this was in another ground breaking on exactly this site. and we are here 20 years later and we are expanding upon that remarkable step that the museum took in 1995. we moved here to third street from the vaness location and from the city hall location. and we were immediately pioneers in this neighborhood. obviously the south of market neighborhood was not what it is today. and very quickly pioneers became anchors. and that is quickly became a gathering place for anyone interested in the visual arts and who was a residents of san francisco or lived in the bay area or came here. over the course of 18 years

since 1995, it has grown, i can only say exponentially in term of our programs, family visits everything has doubled and tripled in size. and our exhibitions reflect the diversity and range of this community and regularly travel around the world literally. so today, here we are in 2013, and we are on the cusp of another remarkable change, when our expansion is complete, it will begin become, not that it was not been, it will become fundamental as a component of the cultural life of san francisco. our building will more than double our current gallery space and we will offer many art filled and also free to the public spaces and galleries for art, many versatile spaces and a building that will feel open and integrated into the urban fabric into the south of market

and south of mission neighborhood as it possibly can, and also offer dramatically expanding programs for cool children and i want to pause for a second on that because this is an important point, earlier this month the board announced that we will create a $10 million endowment to create preadmission for anyone under of the age of 18 to come to the museum. and now if there is one question that i received, pretty much on a daily basis and a question that i received more than any other question that i am asked, is this, two years of construction, sf 1 was going to be closed at third street, where will sf moment go? how will the community continue to experience the contemptary art. we mean it seriously that it

will be figuratively and literally on the go. if you have noticed on the paper the remarkable exhibition will be able to mount on the field sculpture and just a few weeks we will be opening the first of many partnership exhibitions with the partnership exhibitions around the corner from sf moment. i dare say, i dare say that the period of time that we are entering dao into here, the next couple of years, to culminate will be the most exhilarating and exciting into the entire history of this museum. and i could not be more exciting about this and i think that the board and the staff and the community shares that great excitement. at the forefront of all of this work and we could not have asked for a better leader at this time is chunk shwabb the chair and i would like to pass it now to john.

>> good afternoon, good morning, everybody. what an incredible pleasure for me to be see this modern art building over here, we are going to surround that with a little bit of a veil and that will be a permanent structure right there. so we always want to take the new ideas in. don't we? and it is really a thrill to be here for this ground breaking, and it was a twinkle in our eyes a few years ago and i think to have this moment come and now we got to build something that is for sure. we can't leave this hall here or we would be embarrassed to say the least. it always seems to be and we all, i think, love living here in san francisco. in the bay area. and because, we always seem to be way ahead in so many ways and things whether it is

business, art, or technology or progressive social movements for sure that originate in san francisco. it is a great place to have leadership about where we are going as a civilization in the future, this museum in many ways expresss that and offer its to all of our members and our public. that stuff is always been at the forefront. i think of so many different movements. and ahead of its time. the new works that we have done. and new idea and different ways of looking and seeing things. that is what this whole institution is about, and we will be doubling that capability and so it will be more and more fun for families and kids and so forth to come here and to be a part of that. and really thrilled to have that happen. but i want to also thank the leadership of the museum.

getting that twinkle in their eyes that something in 2009, and it just took a lot of asking people to help out with this, but there was a certain person in my life, don fisher who we were very close, don and he sort of put the challenge up to me and if we could really do something fantastic for this city. we all sort of got together and i said, don? and in his final hours, i said don, you got the guy here who is going to make this challenge a reality. and that is really what we have got going on here and so thanks to don, you guys really made this challenge. [ applause ] and we have to say, also, the community itself, our council people, supervisors, our mayor, our chief of police, the chief of the fire department, just

like the fire department now, there say brand new one just a couple of blocks over there and so he is really happy and the whole team is really happy. so he is with us today also, but our trustees thank you for all of your participation and fantastic and i just can't thank enough of the people who have been here working hard with me, side by side, and i have another fellow that i would like to introduce, our mayor ed lee is a fantastic guy and what this city always needs to have, just a guy that is going to make things happen. not all of the fan fair and you just see how this whole city is sort of coming to life. it is going to be probably in 20 and whatever, 16 we, have museums coming and it is unbelievable. mayor ed lee. [ applause ] >> thank you, chuck, and i was

just about to rec meant chuck that you and i and charlotte schultz buy the shoe polish and in a couple of years put that on and pose as 18 years and we can look a little bit like supervisor kim and get in for free, how about that? >> this is an incredible chuck, thank you for that enter did yousing, and i will be very brief because what i really feel today and in this particular ground breaking is a lot of sweat, a lot of good, hard, work, from chuck, from the board of directors and from robert and randy fisher. i want to thank you for your wonderful leadership and you have to raise an incredible amount of money for this to happen and it was for a great cause and i go back to our first lunch in, chuck that we had where you explained a little bit about our history to me and i did for you and we

both talked about the old friendships that we had and you expressed your friendship with don back and that this what ises partly in honor of that. well i want to also express the city's official thank you to doris and don and fisher, collection and the fisher family for your wonderful contribution for our city. and it is with that recognition that we do this ground breaking, plus a big huge thanks for the new fire station as well. but, as i will look forward to speaking to the graduating class at lowell high school this afternoon, i am going to talk about this because it is part of what we do in san francisco. it is for our youth, but it is also future looking, and it is about what we all do for our great city and that is what i feel about the fisher family, that you have contributed to our city. and you know, culturally, based

tourism is now at about 2 billion dollars of income for the city. and it employs almost 20,000 people and this is what our city does, it celebrates culture and that is what draws so many people to this, and now i think, supervisor kim was so proud of these institutions that are coming into our district and that she and i have joined in so many ground breakings and we celebrate this with a very serious recognition of a people that have done this for us. and so, on behalf of the city and county, and with all of our hearts and gratitude, i want to thank robert and randy, i want to thank, doris and don fisher, the whole fisher family for the great, great contributions to our city. this is a gift that will keep on giving, and with this announcement for the youth to come in for free when the 10 million dollar
