it will allow us to do searching on all kinds of different factors. i was reading this morning about the blue to the bandit who is pigeon towed -- pigeontoed and apparently did this on the east coast four or five years ago. we will be able to search on those kinds of key words and pull up all those incidents reports, the field interviews, in the incident report reported by a community member, and eventually, we will tie that in to bay area and nationwide incident reports. this is an important project. we are in the first phase. we have actually automated our current incident reports in san francisco. we are piloting it with a small group of investigators and getting really great results. additionally and again, subject of a different meeting, but we have a road map in place of

where we would like to go with the police department, subject to funding, raese sourcing, etc. >> thank you. you say you are in the middle of the first phase. how many total are there? then there are several. first is basically thinking of it as a geographic rollout. the first is field interviews and san francisco field and abuse and crime reports. they will be bay area crime reporting, and then it will be nationwide and international crime reporting. this is a multi-year project where we can add more and more things so that ultimately, what we want to do is use the data in this warehouse, like, passed information to predict the future. for example, eventually, we will have -- we will say, in august, in the bayview, murders intensified.

we will be able to support officers into the bay view in august to prevent crime. the simple answer to your question is there are four phases that we have outlined, but it is something we will continue to add more and more functionality to the system as we go. supervisor cohen: [inaudible] >> comstat was sort of the beginning. that is what we're building on. it was an oracle database, but much of the work that was put in was manuel, so we are essentially making it automated so that the information going in will be coming directly from a police officer. a police officer enters a crime report, everyone will know about it instantly because it will be going directly in as opposed to it gets printed, sent to the records room, entered into a mainframe, stand, goes to a records room, and the most important part of the crime

report, which is the narrative, is not accessible, other than by walking down, knocking on the room, and pulling out the police report. >> i just wanted knowledge will have representatives here from the part of public health and human services agency. unfortunately, lisa from the department of emergency management had to go address an emergency, so she is no longer here, but i wanted to introduce commissioner stephan a. simmons, the liaison. >> good afternoon, and thank you for your time and for hearing us today. as a new member of the commission and liaison to the family violence council, i have been witness to the power of collaboration. there are not many instances where probation officers are sitting next to social workers,

prosecutors, and public defenders who are usually on the opposite side of the courtroom on the same side of the issue of how to best address family violence. this is also one of the few places where city officials and community advocates have the opportunity to interact with judges. in our case, a judge who was recently named by the presiding judge to represent the superior court on the council. the commission's work in convening the council is essential in our fight against family violence. while we are grateful to the mayor for his leadership in protecting funding for violence against women prevention and intervention grants, the fact that our hard-working staff of five has been cut by 15% is a blow to our work. i hope you will demonstrate your commitment to the issue by continuing to support anti- violence programs and staffing

for our commission. on behalf of the commission, i thank you for your time, and that is it. >> ok, all right, if that includes staff presentations, i will close and open up for public comment. is there anyone for public comment? >> walter pualson -- paulson. ♪ i know there is a violence problem from new york to l.a. and the da's office also in the city by the day -- bay and i know you are glad to be in a city where at least i know you

are frites and i'm glad you're going to give you every public safety need you need and i will gladly stand up to the committee today and let you know today bring safety our way and i know you are glad to be a city where at least i know you are free and i know you are glad you're going to have public safety and all that you need and i would gladly stand up to the committee and board and tell you here today bring public safety, violence, better all the way ♪ supervisor cohen: are there any

other members of the public that would like to sing or speak their testimony? seeing that there are no other members of the public, i will close public comment. madam clerk, are there any other items on the agenda? >> no, madam chair. supervisor cohen: thank you very much. well, then, this meeting is adjourned. >> we need an action on the item. supervisor cohen: 0, that is right, and action on the item. supervisor campos: just a question -- is this just a hearing? should we just moved to file the item? supervisor cohen: thank you, everyone.

>> [inaudible] >> called this meeting of the transbay joint powers authority board of directors to order. would you call the roll, please? >> i like to know -- note directors ford, sartpi will not be with us today. >> thank you. i would like to add that it is nice to be back. all i can say is any meeting at which you have to pass a budget and the chair and vice chair are so comfortable that they needn't

be there, that is a pretty good organization. i feel pretty confident here. ok, so communications. what we have? >> let's go ahead and finish out the role -- roll. [roll call] you do have a quorum. >> indications? anything? anybody? no communications. new and old business -- anything there? executive director board -- i'm sure there is something. >> good morning directors, members of the public. most of our presentations now, director harbor, for your benefit, focus on the construction of date because we are in the midst of construction work, so you will be hearing more about that from steve rule of turner construction, but i wanted to report on a few more items, and that is that we reached a milestone where we have acquired all the properties

for phase one, which is a really big milestone for the transbay authority that clears the way for us to move forward with the first phase. on the design front, we are working closely with pelly clark pelly. we're targeting having 100% of the documents completed next year. we're working on everything from material design review, retail design review, the bus ramp design review. we're also working closely with the seismic safety review committee to make sure that we have all the final approval and permanent for the structural design so there are no delays. and, of course, we continue working with our stakeholders of adjacent properties and the agency. most recently, we met with the problem of building inspection and the fire department with respect to the firelight safety on the bus level in the transit city -- transit center. we are also working with the municipal transit agency and

planning on the bus plaza and the design of the overhead system for that. also, we are working closely with high-speed rail on the design of the lower rail levels. we have now agreement on where the columns will all be and where we will have the escalators and so forth. that was really good progress. with respect to the bus storage, we recently conducted a bus simulation at the proposed bus storage layout. the simulation prove to be very fruitful and give us ideas on how we can further refine the designed to improve the bus movements in that area. the packages were advertised on june 3, and bids due on august 10, so that is all on schedule. the temporary terminal, everything is running really well. we had a number of meetings with operators and surrounding

residences and so forth in preparation for the bay to breakers, and we were happy to see that there were no incidents reported and that went well. i would like to have sarah come up and give the quarterly report update to the board on our finances. >> these are our quarterly financial reports. the first is budget to actuals through the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, and it shows that all expenditures and revenues are within budget. the second report is our contract status report, and it shows the amounts authorized and spent to date for all of our contracts as well as sbe and dbe percentages. i know many of you are interested in how we're doing, because so many of the packages have been set aside, of the $24 million spent so far, we have 45% sbe participation.

through march 31, we awarded 36% of our contracts so far. the third report is our quarterly investment report, which shows interest earnings from our equity and will account with the city. interest rates continue to be rather low, so we continue to have a non-interest-bearing checking account, and in return, we see no fees on that account. fourth report is our inception to date. shows expenditures and revenues for the life of the program carrier also, on the financial side [inaudible] auditors will be coming in at the end of this month for interim field work. happy to answer any questions. >> [inaudible] >> yes, our artists are two- part. anywhere from may to june, they come in for about a week. they look at interim financial statements that we have prepared

usually cut off at in the march 31 or april 30. that is when they do most of their testing and sampling, and they come in for final field work in the fall. >> questions? >> i do have a question. since vice chair ortiz is not here, and she would be asking. i was reading that to produce a basic level on dbe's was 18.5%, the actual commitment is only 13%. >> the 18.5% as our goal for the next three years. even though for the first six months of this three years, we are at 13%, the 18.5% was based on a contract we expect to award over three years. >> is there anything you are doing to ensure that we will eventually reach that level? >> we monitor that very closely. we have pre-bids before all of our packages go out, and we are working with business development inc., a dbe and sbe

consultant based out in the bayview, for the package that was just released last week. there's a mandatory pre bit where they have to come and spend both an afternoon and a morning at tjpa offices. >> last, because i could not find it, what was the goal for sbe? >> we do not set a program-wide gold. the program is really just a tjpa program to try to supplement our dbe efforts. >> i would like to ask steve from turner construction to give an update on our construction progress. >> good morning, directors.

construction management oversight. there we go. as of the sixth of june, the demolition contractor is substantially complete with his initial contract work, having worked 50,000 kraft hours without any accidents or injuries, completing everything all the way out to the freeway. they are just doing the final crushing and recycling, an ongoing work now will be the additional buildings that were authorized at last month's meeting and clean up punchless, final rubble removal, things like that. on the utility relocation side, the package -- the water and sewer relocation, we anticipate that pavement to be completed and the repayment to be done by the end of july. 4.2 is the water on mrs. tree, which is before the directors today for approval of the bid.

4.3 is water relocation on howard street. all the demolition and removal of abandoned utilities will be completed at the end of july with the payment restoration in the last week of july. water and sewer is moving along with tie-ins to be completed by july 10. we anticipate the pavement restoration to be completed by the first week in august. water store relocation joint trench on ministry. at&t has begun their cabling and termination, the demolition and capping of the end of utilities, which we completed on july 13. the final payment restoration at the end of the month of july. finally, 4.6, which is the store and sludge work along beale street, is under way, with completion and final restoration by mid-july. almost all of the utility packages, with the exception of 4.2, will be completed by the end of the summer, and it is ashley anticipated to get started in the first quarter of

next year. quite a long material lead time on that. the other construction activity involves the 301 mission temporary wall. they got medals at framing up and will be starting the plastic this last week and completed these don't installation on the north side. we still anticipate opening up the north side of that wall that faces the millennium project, getting out of the millennium driveway by the end of the month and completing the whole project by the end of july. the transit center, the budget shoring and excavation work continues. we completed the woodpile the extraction in the buttress area. we extracted about twice as many as anticipated, but they are all gone. in the central section, they continue to build up shoring piles. i will continue on that. in a zone of for your, they are

completing their backfill operation. they placed their drilling platform over this last week, and that will be ready for mobilization of the drilling equipment shortly. they are starting to call for the rest of the pre-trenching for the shoring wall around the perimeter of the project. final timeline on the demolition, with the added buildings, they will be completed at the end of august with everything cleaned up and out of the way. picture on the left was at the end of april. picture on the right is the east end of the project. that is beale street at the lower part of the picture and fremont at the upper part. they are prepping the area for where the drilling platform goes in and doing all the backfill in this picture. the rest of the project, you can see the number of soldier piles completed. that is that big stack. i think they have over 120

beam's completed, inspected, and ready to go. as i said before, on may 4, actually, all the ramp work was completed all the way out to the freeway, and you can see the right of way were the bus ramps used to run, are all cleaned up. this was the final large piece of demolition, a lab that was put in to seismically stabilize the bus ramps. i think it was in the late 1980's, early 1990's, and they had to remove that completely. the repaved the sidewalk for a temporary sidewalk. utility relocation package map, 4.2 at the top of the page is the final package before you today for approval, and we will be starting first quarter of next year, and that is the water on mission street. the rest will be finished up by the end of the summer. there is some of the work that went on on the utility packages.

that sidewalk picture is sidewalk restoration at 555 mission on the ministry side. after all the utilities, the joint trench work was completed. to give you a perspective on some of the complications that are having working around existing conditions, this was a manhole at howard and fremont street they are getting reports. squeezing in a couple of store lines, and of course, that bill operation on the sewer. this is the stonework on the north face of the temporary wall. as i said, that will be opened up at the end of the month. and the pre-trenching -- we found some unforeseen concrete walls, unforeseen conditions that were not expected. some foundation walls that were out there from buildings in the late 1800/early 1900's, so we had to remove those. and, of course, they were piled- supported, so there were some additional woodpiles that need

to be pulled. the next step is to start shoring wall. the blue crayon on the right there was moved over to zone four night before last, and they are starting to put the argue system on it, and that will be erected if you go by in the next day or so. that will be standing up ready to start drilling work in about a week. local labor in the bay area of the 50,000-plus hours completed by the demolition crew, 43,000 were completed by local labor. 88%, with the work that the cm gc is doing, they have completed 25,000 kraft hours, also without incident or injury, and 25,000 have been from local bay area labor. is there any questions? >> thank you, directors.

that concludes my report. director harbor: which takes us to public comment -- director herbert -- directer harper: which takes us to public comment. >> good morning. i'm here today because i need some information. this thing has gotten completely out of control. i do not know what really causes this to happen, but there are absolutely no african-american contractors on this project. there are no african-american contractors on board. there are no african-american contractors doing work with pg&e. all of these big agencies, particularly webcor and turner, have decided that they did not have to hire blacks at no time because of proposition 209. what they do is say they will

hire minorities. we know what that means. but people are excluded. i am now the president of a veterans association -- i am a veteran of a war, and i was in a meeting the other day with 15 black soldiers who lost a limb for this country and cannot get a job in construction, not one of them, because there are no blacks in it. these people are going crazy as far as black people are concerned. san francisco has become the mecca of the ku klux klan attitude because we cannot get work. 42% of black people in san francisco are unemployed. that is unheard of. something needs to be done, and someone needs to sit down and either stop this project or just come out and tell us, "we are not going to hire blacks in san francisco." is down to that. it is down to there are no

african-american contractors under contract doing work in san francisco for any agency. san francisco's spent about $40 billion. black people pay taxes here just like white people do. i am asking you to -- i would like to first note -- can this agency get the number from webcor and all the rest of them on how many african-american contractors they've got. when you talk to them, they say they have minority contractors, but that always hides itself that they did not have to hire black contractors. it is right down to all of that. it is back to the stone age in so far as black people are concerned, and sentences could should not be like that, and i am asking for assistance from this board to launch an investigation particularly into turner. director harper: thank you, mr.

walker. >> you are welcome. >> that concludes public comment on that item. that, we can move into the consent calendar. item 7.2 has been removed from the consent calendar and will be [inaudible] will actually have one item to consider, and that is the minutes of the may 12 meeting. director harper: i believe i am recused from that. does it require a quorum? can we pass it? >> majority. director harper: majority is fine? i was not here. any objection to those minutes? any comments, correction? seeing none. >> all right, minutes are approved. director harper: regular calendar item 8, the money. capital budget operating budget. sarah is here.
