2:37 pm
properties and the commercial tenants in trounl with the amount of traffic associated with the supplement we are disappointed by the modifications of the may 13 agreement with the various intashlts we noticed the only thing that caused my responsibility inform maintain noise powers even if operation and the type of operation for on the that 7 percent was relied open the police and the entertainment commission we had to sue them because they didn't do anything to stop to the noise and with the difficulties of the america's cup. we want to make sure that i'm sure you're going to adapt that but before it going to the planning department and the peripheries and the mayor, etc. we want to be sure everyone is heard and the neighborhood this

2:40 pm
>> is there a effect on the bay. >> i don't think we see the impact on the bay brown but from the b cdc concerns around the public access along the embarcadero promenade and how the management cross over into the facility can impact that. >> how much open assess in the part is open space is open. >> unfortunately, i don't have the percentage off the top of my head particularly we have a lark park on pier 27 as well as the promenade the general observation with the growth and volumes of pedestrians and the transmission of the promenade there's an interest not to create the quality issues in
2:41 pm
that experience one of the things we've put together as part of the package is not only what are the numbers of spaces and how this shared use be dominated within the visitor parking and the cruise and special events but also a transportation management program it includes some staffing levels for varying levels of peaking activities to try to address the pedestrian conflict issue. >> what my question is we should encourage ac b c we hold that the port and port commission's to make sure we're in a financially fiscal available position i'm not sure i heard there was a reason not to have this parking and it's important to us being fiscally responsible and to generate a
2:42 pm

2:48 pm
wharves along the southern waterfront. >> good afternoon, commissioners david with planning and development. this report is no response to commissioner brandon's where where about the statistic to remove the derattled structures in the southern waterfronts. since 2000 the port has removed a number of piles and structures prifrm as it relates to the special plan requirement but also to accommodate life safety and port operational needs this exhibit shows the piers we've removed since 2000 in the north fisherman's wharf and pier 43 in the northern waterfront portions of the pier valley around the
2:49 pm
ferry building inspection we have pier 24 and then in the south beach area pier 34 and 36 and lastly pier 64 in the process of being demolished and pier 74 those are the piers we've removed since 2000. piers that we're looking for demolition in the future include pier 70 wharf 8 and the green silos and pier 90 at the pier view gateway and we've got the old wharves on the north and west side and the pier 311. the next few slides illuminate the various stages where we at
2:50 pm
the inn the individual projects. pier 70 is one hundred and 50 thousand square feet supported pier into both the combination of wood and steel piles has been considered a project for removal under the b cdc project where a they were short one hundred and 08 thousand square feet of the bay removal. the port has submitted a project request to the u.s. army of core of engineers under the bill to receive $5.5 million to remove the pier if we're successful in getting the army core of engineers funding the "x" to your memory fund will help to match the grant and hoping to hear from the army core of engineering for the funding of the project this fall. the next area highlighted in the
2:51 pm
yellow is pier 90 green solo approximately 80 thousand square feet area of pile supported deck that's deteriorated and the cost to remove this is $2.5 million we have not identified my source of funding to remove the pile supported area. as part of moving forward with my pile removal project we need to consultation further analysis to determine whether the pile supported structure actually spots the seawall. the next highlighted the in jelling yellow is the site of the gateway project that's 13 thousand square feet derating and it's in the bid process and anticipated to be removed by the
2:52 pm
summer of 2015 and funded by 2008 parks obligation bonds. the next area is the creek wafers the old wharves and piles that supported what was once pier 84 supported the crane operations on the north and literally stick piles on the south side. the port applied for a grant to rehab the co-sponsorer crane and remove the piles and were successful and submitted for the necessary permits to remove that. and light we have what's called the pier 96 lash term the lighter than area. this is approximately 25 thousand square feet pier that's gone to collapse it's just north
2:53 pm
of herself side park the source of funding could be the southern waterfront beautification funds we believe that this pier would be an approximately pier for the crews to demolish and as a it relates to proprieties each of those pile removal projects requires an army of engineers regional core board and this allows us to get credit for the removal and requires sequa and the pier 70 project specifically requires the viral protection act funded through federal resources. the bay area gateway project is funded and will be demolished approximately in a year from now
2:54 pm
and ready to put in the wharves creek to be demolished and lastly our next steps is to return to the commission if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them i'd like to recognize the help from tom carter and others. it was a cross ignitional staff report in putting together the information. thank you >> public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed commissioners >> i want to thank you and the team for doing this analysis and coming up with this report i truly appreciate it. so once those 5 sites pilings
2:55 pm
are removed that means there will be no more dead pilings in the waterfront >> that's correct and i thought that was some outside the ramp. >> it's pier 44 u 64 those r were required to be removed from america's cup and i don't know by the end of the year those will be piles will be removed completely we will be rebuilding some turn habitat out there but not the rotting piers and off the shore a little bit. >> so everything is funded except for or possible funded for pier 70 and pier 90. >> pier 90 yes at the because of the silos. >> thank you that's great.
2:56 pm
>> so commissioner just an magnitude there's approximately seven hundred and thirty piles we think we can count on the water at the right levels we've removed that oh, my apologies so we're still plowing away. >> hopefully, the port will he remove them and we'll save money. >> this is the first time we've used our staff to get those removed and the piles they're doing it as easily as they're doing it but call roll more piles are there because their hidden by the water if that method doing works we can reciprocate more. >> thank you tom and your team. >> commissioners? no comment.
2:57 pm
that's commissioner brandon's comments i know a lot of work has gone into this thank you very much. this is an inform presentation >> this is the presentation for the 2014-2015 mostly rental rate and monthly statistical rates and parking.

2:59 pm
third party review. by way of background the perimeter rents have been deliberated to the staff and we don't have to come back to the port commission for every review so before we came here before for all details. those perimeters that we have to meet unable to be able to execute the leases they're not retail use not a ranging restaurant or a term that is less than 5 years anticipated to generate less than $9 million and finally has to have at least the rents that are presented in the rent schedule. to give you a little bit more sort of context how the perimeters effect us those are a
3:00 pm
huge portion of the lease transactions their approximately 64 percent of our lease count but in the everyday transactions the only represent about 15 percent of the real estate department leasing revenue we do the bond presentations to drum up the revenues this is really what the diversity comes from we have a lot of small businesses and they have found a home here. this is a way to look it over time this is port revenues for the real estate division the bottom blue session is basically what the perimeter deals represent to use it really is another way to show the foundation the stable rent comes from the perimeter the develome
