commit. i do not think she can. what this commission can do is table for two weeks and direct the entertainment commission, my parties, and the property owner to engage in settlement negotiations and see if we can settle this among ourselves and come up with appropriate conditions and report back to you and you can take a vote. >> we continue for two weeks and allow those discussions to take place. if ms. kane does not have the power to back to the board, it might require a vote of the board. if they could do that. do have some comments? >> i do not know that -- i do not know what the settlement negotiations would mean. the entertainment commission cannot take action.

it is suspended to us. she would have to do in the context of a public hearing. >> it would come back to this board and we would discuss with the staff of the entertainment commission with the applicant and our folks and we report back to president garcia and the board and you can take a boat. >> she can take it to her board and gets it codified or something that her board is willing to go along with with that kind of settlement agreements put in place. there would be more process behind this. everything is clear on what would take place? >> some of the terms or to ask the entertainment commission to hold a hearing, that could be something that she could take back to her commission. anything affecting this person has to be decided by this body. >> it would be. you would act and we would

discuss with the entertainment commission, with the property owner and we would take all steps necessary and it could do it that way. you would retain jurisdiction on the appeal and we would settle within two weeks. >> if we vote up or down to overturn this permit. it is in the interest of the permit holder for us to continue and have these discussions take place. it is with the cooperation of ms. kainane. i unless another commissioner feels differently, it seems like a fairly elegant solution to the problem. you're shaking your head. >> i am sorry.

what i am confused about is we have had to hearings already on this and this has been a third on the same. i do not believe there is any more information to come forward. i do not believe there's any more negotiation that could happen. i hope i am not speaking out of turn. we were talking about process earlier. and now we're talking about going back and doing another conversation with the same parties with the same information. the breaks that have been provided to you, there's everything there is to say on this. >> i do not think what is on here as conditions would solve the problem. are there other ways? we advanced the idea of a sunset or some sort of action that happens to see of these work. we're skeptical and there may be people who vote no on the permit. we do not believe -- >> we do not know what we do not

know. >> is there a mechanism -- quex the mechanism you have bront out which is a review in six months is perfectly understandable and more elegant to me that we now we now as opposed to not knowing what we do not know. if there is some way to embed this into your decision, put it in as a condition of the permit. whenever the methodology is, if you can find it to have a review. whether these conditions solve the problems. we come back and have another conversation. it makes sense to me. >> i am not skeptical. i am optimistic. there are multiple conditions on this permit. hopefully the address the issue. there was a process they went into coming up with these

conditions. maybe it is over the top to have to security guards. her nose? it may be perfect to address the concerns. this is an effort that a lot of people put a lot into. as the permit holders rep, give it a go. if we could embed the six months, is that not feasible? >> i am happy to research this question. these are not permits the you could not grant this as a six- month permit. it can grant or deny it. you could not make expire after six months. >> that is not what we're doing. >> you're trying to remanded. -- remand it. the entertainment commission monitors the client -- complaints and would be

responsible for suspending or revoking if there was a violation. >> what we're trying to achieve, what i am trying to achieve and i heard the same from other people. some mechanism takes place and we will hear from you again as we heard from everybody else. this is a chance. to continue it so we get some reassurance that your commission is willing to sunset. it is not willing, two weeks from now we will have a bunch of time you think you need. we take our up or down vote. >> can ask another question? >> i do not think i have communicated that. >> i'm not sure of understand what you mean by sunset. >> after some stated amount of time, we have indicated six months, we have a different review of such that the permit would be revoked.

you have revocation powers. >> we do. >> it would be revoked if the problems, if there is enough substantial evidence that the problems persist. >> i can tell you we would do that. we would do that sooner. we will know fairly quickly whether these conditions are working based on our ability to enforce with our enforcement officers. the neighbors letting us know that -- if these conditions are solving the problems are not. >> i misunderstood earlier. i thought that what you said is you could go back and see if the conditions you had placed upon it were in place. >> they are there. >> it is not operating yet. >> we know the conditions are there. >> i understand that. when you have been asked about

it, you did not say that -- if the conditions are not there we can find them and make sure the conditions are there but you did not go beyond that and say if the problem is not solved, we can revoke. those were the magic words for me. >> i apologize. we have suspension and revocation powers, absolutely. >> ok. before we pull the trigger. unless somebody had questions. >> the problem we have with this gentleman's proposal is what is going to happen in three weeks, we come back again in three weeks and again in three weeks. meanwhile he is losing money every day even though he has done what he has been asked to do. on the other hand he is more than willing to submit to six- month examination. he can keep because so much of

this money transfer is computerized. he can provide accurate records, how many customers he had between 2:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. and how many people were there or whatever. i know it is getting late in the evening but my comment to this tillman is i do not think there is any way to settle it. he does not want it open. he wants to open. he was granted the permit. that is the bottom line. in three weeks will be back again. >> the board has heard what they had hoped to hear. i think we're ready to entertain a motion and to vote. i think this is probably not necessary. does someone want to make a motion? knowing full well that the entertainment commission has powers of revocation, intends to monitor the situation closely,

knowing the concerns of the neighborhood which seems to be legitimate, reasonable concerns and the concerns of very many people as attested to by the number of signatures we have received. given the fact that this gentleman has been out of operations for some portion of his operating hours for a while. i move that we uphold the entertainment commission approval of this permit. to operate under the conditions they have set forth we cannot demand or add to. >> can we recognize that ms. kane has volunteered to ask her commission to hold a hearing in six months and the permit holder has agreed to show data of activity during those hours and keep track of the number of customers that are there? these were recognized -- these

commitments were made publicly. we cannot commit the commission to hold a hearing but the staff has recommended they would do that. >> the board urges the commission to urge a whole -- hold a hearing on the status of this location and permit. >> and granting the permit the board needs to say why it has found the permit was not warranted under sections 1-4 and section 10 60.5. if you want, you can reference the reasons for the subsections in the entertainment commission is brief. >> thank you for completing that for me. who is writing that down? >> tharoor after i watched the video. >> everybody heard and understood? >> deny the appeal and uphold

the permit on the conditions -- on the basis stated and also to urge the entertainment commission to hold a hearing in six months on the status of this permit. the motion was made by the president. vice-president huang, aye. commissioner hurtado, aye. >> the motion is passed. we have no further business. we can adjourn. president garcia: all right. [gavel]

>supervisor kim: good morning. welcome to the tpja meeting of march 8. go ahead and call roll. >> you do have a quorum. item number three, communications. i am not aware of any.

item number four, board of directors new and old business. supervisor kim: any new announcements? to go item number five, executive director's report. -- >> item number five, executive directors report. >> we will give you the quarterly report and various updates and a construction update. first, i want to mention in may we will be putting out a bid for a package that is coming up soon. secondly, i did want to mention we are going to be having the first-ever groundbreaking for a new development in the transbay neighborhood coming up soon. we have a date tentatively set for september 2. this would be blocked 1 11a. the project is a mid-rise. it is 120 units. it is going to have 108 studios.

121-bedrooms. there will be up to three retail spaces, a community room and outdoor space. the presidents of the building will be formally homeless individuals that are referred by the department of public health that are offered subsidy and funding for services and the project. a joint program of ucf will provide on-site clinic calls in support of services for the residence. it will offer treatment, supportive counseling their peak and vocational training, etc.. we will be sending the board an invitation would we have confirmed details. tentatively we have it for april 2. our first-ever ground rate for the first development of the neighborhood, and i am happy it is a home for formerly homeless

individual. that is the update. now i would like asked sarah to please come up and present quarterly reports. >> good morning. sarah gillate. >> the first report shows expenditures are within budget through the second quarter of this fiscal year we of spent approximately 67 million. about 467,000 and operating expenditures and 172,000 going into operating reserves. the second report is the contract status report showing that all contracts are within their authorized amount. it shows the percentages for each contract. we are at 15% dbe awards.

the third report is our investment and interest earnings report. you might notice the format has changed. it is related to the block 11 supportive housing that was just mentioned, the groundbreaking. it is now invested in u.s. treasury notes. of that will give an update on the project labor agreement. -- bob beck. >> thank you, members of the board. the board in november, and we

have taken a number of steps implementing this. most significantly, we have the first quarterly meeting of the joint administrative meeting, which is including two representatives of the of tpj and two representatives of the labor union. their representatives from turner construction from the project -- program management team, and the project. that meeting went very well, and recovered a number of items there. and -- we covered a number of items there. the key terms are covering work stoppages. we have not had work stoppages or disputes with the union at this point. the unions are reporting they do not have any problems meeting its labor demands for the project. we did have one of safety

incident this past quarter, which was a sprained ankle. the employee in question went for treatment and returned to decide the next dthe site the n in december the executive directors, members of the labor union, the contractor, turner construction attended the opening of the new vocational training carpenter shop and john o'connell high school. the carpenters coming out of that session agreed to donate textbooks for the program, and the general contractor's donated a number of pieces of equipment, several toolboxes and other equipment to the facility. more recently last week the remembers of our team went to john busraharah burton high schd

presented to groups of ninth graders on engineering and construction trades in the importance of math and science curriculum. we are also looking to carry forward our high school internship program this summer, both with program management team and tpja for what will be our fifth year. earlier last month we meant with the executive director of the of hellman's for hard hats director. he met with representatives of the labor union to give us details on the program, how they identify prospective candidates who ardee leaving the military r recently left the military and trades they would be interested in, so those can be dovetailed

with apprenticeships programs at local unions. upcoming in august there is going to be a job fair on the uss hornet that we will be attending to look to connect with potential candidates as well. there was also a job fair at the veterans building march 2 that dog holly from the program management team attended to distribute information on our project and the hellman's for hard hats program. in terms of updates on apprenticeships opportunities in utilization, carpenters have reported to us they have nine apprentices currently working on the project. operating engineers have reported they have for apprentices and city build graduates working on the project, and a labor union has identified they have 36

apprentices working on the project in the month of november and december. that concludes my report on progress to date. if you have any questions, i would be happy to answer. >supervisor kim: i appreciate you went to buto highrton high school. i am curious how you plan on recruiting students and how big is selected? >> we have an open the application process, and we typically have a people come in for interviews with potential people they would be managing or mentoring. it is throughout review of applications and potential interest in match with the particular -- >supervisor kim: you are

just recruited ninth graders? >> no. there was an opportunity at the school for people to come and speak. we have established dialogue with the district office, and we are trying to match up -- match up whenever there is an interest from one of the schools for presentation, and speaking opportunities or site-visit opportunities. we're making that wide open. we tend to focus more on juniors and seniors, people who are making decisions about college. supervisor kim: are you looking for specific backgrounds or skill sets you have a criteria to pick from? >> it is open, so it is somewhat

of a broad net. we are looking for people who potentially have an interest. supervisor kim: who are you working with dspecifically in the district? >> doug holly is the point person for the veteran's component in the school district. he has been for the last number of years. doug, why don't you answer the questions. supervisor kim: who are you working with specifically at the school district? >> james coal. when we went to get the presentations, we did work directly with the read of the high school teachers. >>supervisor kim: i am curious s

to -- it is already march, and usually internships in turn have been in march and april. i am worried if we do not have a specific plan -- i would love to see the application, i just want a sense of how the out reach will happen. when the net is too broad, you often do not get students to apply. it is not really clear who this is being directed to and what the students need. it is usually helpful to target specific academies. it does not sound like there is an actual plan. >> there is in a plan. why don't you give the plan. >> in working with the sacramento unified school district, they -- san francisco unified school district, they provide candidates who are interested.

obviously the teachers' work directly with the students. the candidates are interviewed, and they interestingly enough, they go through a hiring process -- supervisor kim: i am curious about this today even gets there. the interview point. clearly you have a selection process laid out. and >> >> we do. the program has three different elements to it. reaching out to the ninth graders, we do not try to get them interested in math and science, because 10th and 11th grade will be the times when that will come math will come i. the presentations are part of the process. i did
