golden gateway tenant association. and the coast neighborhood association, tell graph hill dwellers and the citizens from china town, it is a blueprint for the entire north east corridor that offers plans and ideas to benefit the port, recreation, housing, open space, and it is environmentally compatible to the new cruise terminal and exploretorimu., it benefits those who live in the neighborhood but really opens up the water front to all parts of the city and those who visit our san francisco. and the a&d water front vision shows a sense of place, creating more people, space and i might point out that it was not an a&d plan but that wonderful children's playground in the park is an example of

people, and vision. the water front vision plan is an integrated hall and now is the time to begin the dialogue with you and your port staff and we come with an open mind, changes may be muted to fit the present and an honest discussion, must again, the vision planner is a great starting point, and if i have time i would like to read td conclusions from the plan. >> strengthen the traffic and and the diverse water front and it enhances and preserves the community recreation opportunity and creates a politically and economically feasible plan that balances public use and revenues generating development. and i thank you for this opportunity and i hope to hear

code and that code will go into effect january of 2014. and that building code impacts the port's building codes and requires that we amend the various port building codes that we have. i just wanted the commission and the community know that there is a draft of the various port building codes. it is the building code green mechanical and electrical and plumbing codes, and all of those codes have to be amended to be consistent with the new state code and we have the codes available on the port website, sf port.com for the public and for the commission to review. and the staff will be back to the port commission and in december to present the final draft of the building codes for your approval assuming that you do approve them. the new port codes will go into

effect january first, 2014 at the same time that the state code goes into effect. and i mentioned a couple of times the port commission meeting in december and i want to remind folks and i know that the commission at the last meeting but i want to remind folks that the december commission meeting will be december the 12th which is a thursday and we usually meet on taouses and so the december meeting will be on thursday and we will start at the regular time at 3:15 here in the sherry building. and last issue that i wanted to raise with you is pier 92, grain silo public art and we have been before you regarding that particular murals that are proposed to the grant silos, piers 92, adjacent to the only north street bridge, and you remember that we worked with the art commission and they went through the selection process and selected a

developer and excuse me not a developer, but they selected artists, and hadad and drugan to develop a mural for the grain siloand that was based on culture of historical issues from the bay view community. and although, the work has begun on that mural as of november 7th they have begun to put that mural in place so we can give you and the public a heads up that you will see that work beginning and it will be completed until december and we are working with the mayor's office and others on a ground breaking at least, to celebrate

that. >> it will be lit as well as the pro-yekt is completed and commissioners that completes my report. >> thank you. and we do have one public comment, and you can make your comment. >> i am just surprised that washington was not on the executive direct's report as far as what happened. i must say that in spite of all of the meetings that we had and the labor said no no no and the port did not listen and it is too bad that they spent all of that money on a useless fight that could have been avoited and better spent on lighting the embarcadero and made other improvements to the water front, which we sorely need, and so i am just, really...,

that it is held here. and i created the park across the street and all that i could say is a bunch of lies saying that we need parks instead of a parking lot wha, do they think that my park right next do is to it, sorry, it is a huge park and we don't need more parks, we need affordable housing i am sure, that you all got the message keep that m mind on all of the future endeavors on the port and because we can do better. and we tried so hard to make it beautiful and all that the city functions can do is destroy it and i love the way that they put it in the newspaper that the planning department okayed it and the board of supervisors okayed it and sure, they all worked in collaboration, because they are corrupt, thank you.

>> thank you, commissions, any comments on the executive director's report? hearing none we will move on. >> item 7 a, the request to authorization to amend the existing contract withdavis & associates communications, inc. to (1) revise the scope of work, (2) increase the amount of the contract from $50,000 to $170,000, (3) extend the term by three years by extending the expiration date from june 30, 2014 to june 30, 2017, for a full contract term of five and one half years, and (4) add a one year extension option.

presentation on the revised project 3.0 design of the golden state warriors arena and multi-purpose venue project at piers 30-32 >> commissions, and as you know that we have been working for some time with the gold are state warriors on the development of the pier 30-32 and the proposed multipurpose for the water games and other events and activity and we are pleased to be at this point, where the design team for the golden state warriors will be presenting the latest design, as you know they will be working closely with the office of economic and workforce development, with the planning department, and with the port, and other city departments with other entities like ecdc and also working closely with various community stake holders

and with the city family and the developer. this proposals you will hear is the response to the input from all of those entity and we are really excited to see what new ideas and how the project has changed. craig dikers as the internationally design firm and the designer that is leading this design effort. as you know, he has designed and this firm is designed the expansion which is under construction now. and craig is here to present the design for this facility. >> thank you very much and thank you commissioner and ladies and gentlemen of the audience. and we just like to spend about 20 minutes or so to run through some of the basic statistics

and facts and also show you some images that will help to hopefully show you better in the audience to better understand the implications of the refinements that we have making over the past several months, before we do that, i would like to remind you that we have several goals and one of them is of course that we recognize that the current pier is in a serious state of deteration and if you look along them, and the basic platform of the pier, you will find rebar exposed and concrete, and falling into the water and so, a big part of our project is to provide the stabilization, actually to that pier itself. we hope that people will recognize that the desin is providing more open access to the peer and much more than we are familiar with today as the sight is fenced off to the public. the first sketches have shown

an emphasis on pointing towards the nearby, existing monuments such as the bay bridge bier itself and so it has seeing as having as much value as the octobers themselves and houses the building for the facility across the site. and this is the recent sketch and we will go into it in some detail of how the areas are defined and the core idea remains the same that there be an emphasis between the open space and the space between things have value and a new design and this shows a large, grand lawn that we have created that leads the eye up from the south to the north from to the bay bridge pier and there are three values that we have tried to develop and refine further and all of these points are being created in our minds, and in relation to comments that we have heard both informally and formally, through various
