10:10 am
is $2 million. the recent letter we received is to deny again, our final clefs for 200 and 6th street $2 million but the chair identified a determination of the several billions of that's identified on the rocks but they choose not 0 address that in their letter so we're continuing to work with them to try to better understand is this something we do building and they've held firm to the contract standard as they had in previous raps statutory & they said they do excited and this is a specific obligation as certified by the state. we're not there what all the implementations mean by the way,

10:12 am
impact the design and the implementation of the project in the manner that's been brought up you. two responses president fong in terms of the timeline i'm reviewing this to spring or april of 2014 that the moscone team will publish the eir and as was in the presentation moscone north the additionally agency issued the revenue bonds to build it which is leased to the city but the agreements provide and they're paid for by moscone revenues. the sources of revenues is the
10:13 am
moscone receipts. it's expected that the bonds on moscone north will be paid off but because of the initially financing there are may the record show payments that are did you for a few more years but the city will own the moscone north where the radiance are north even if howard street the city will own moscone north if the bonds are paid off. we don't know did timing when that will be or that nicole there's no permit it enter or lease in that case the city - it's a city facility. so your entity on the captains
10:14 am
of moscone north so what is not yet a city facility is the cafe spaces the property beyond the north. there will be various agreements that will be noted in order depending upon the construction timeline we're expecting the approvals that will be note for the commission whatever you own at the time in the winter of 2014. we're during this trial down the the scope of the drizzling it's complicated we'll work with the team. their construction is scheduled to start quickly thereafter after asking you the approvals

10:16 am
to do the first phase of the work under howard street. one of our many challenges on the construction is trying to keating keep the center in continuous revenue generating. so this goes into the summer of 2018. we'll pay off the bonds in july. the antiquestion is the remaining lease payment that the director mentioned i believe is a two year roughly 2 and a half million dollars demolition we're looking for the authority to solve our goal. it's to make everyone's life easier and have it be a city asset by july so prior to the beginning of construction but it's not yet revolved
10:17 am
>> what's the total expenditure. >> we've issued $2 million in bonds through two revenue sources which the moscone dissected on hotel rooms and the public-private industry in the hotel industry and some expiating general payments to moscone. so the hotel assessment is about 2/3rd's of the assessment sources and the remaining third is through thank you funds >> definitely i have the same question that commissioner rosales has. i don't have any double we'll get but what does that mean if we don't agree. i have that same question
