james at the peer 35 and 32 of the embarcadero and brooifrnt streets respectfully. >> good afternoon. i'm john for the planning development on on may 13th the port staff give a management agreement between the port and metro we've outlined the james r herman is a project that's taken over 20 years to complete but this summer this year peer 27 will be complete and operational late september. getting this project built has been difficult and clearly a loonth along coming once the project is collected mr. will be regards for the city at large as mentions in the presentation staff tried to have a balance of
9:36 pm
fiscal responsibilities to do that the port has made over the last number of years to create a new port facilitated not only represent a state of the art crews facility for san francisco but to create an attractive venue for public and private events inside the terminal we hope this accomplishes the goal of the crews advisory panel for the recommendations sent out in 2007 pr generally speaking those recommendations including one build a new cruise terminal to preserve and promote one of the maritime's industries and two hydrahave the vice president of the peer 27 as the new peer facility and develop a plan for the new 27 terminal not only for the crews operations ambassador 44 for on site parking and
9:37 pm
shared use of the terminal space for special events and increase the passenger crews fee. 4 implement the short tower and 5 build ashore side park. staff will have accomplished all those recommendations again that we set out in 2007. but let's be clear when the cruise terminal didn't serve as a cruise function we'll use the space for other functions because it brings people to the waterfront and costs costs >> while construction at peer 27 will be complete staff has embarked on a path to identify on the operator for peer 27 and 35 cruise tenors they selected metro to organize the operations
9:38 pm
crews will be operated by crews and special events will be handed by the studios. parking will be managed by in park every metro those uses were studied in the eir approved in 23450679 and 2011 to we've laid out the information we've provided more information specifically to hosting cruise events and seeing 0 how the ground parking capacity impacts the facilities and metro and staff have agreed to a booking procure that makes cruise calls priorities and metro will provide an monthly update with the fees of the infrastructure
9:39 pm
and they'll comply with the city ordinances and addressing light and other things >> as noted in the may 13 presentation staff port staff still has not secured a b c amendment to allow part time parking at the ground area so we've attached two attachments that talk about the b c progress. exhibit c is the base case which is the that was similar to what was shown on may 13th this scenario shows that scenario 3 hundred and 0 thirty are parking spaces and 3 cruise calls and an estimated amount of events if
9:40 pm
the parking spaces were reduced or eliminated then the port would be negatively impacted. exhibit d is a similar too on the exhibit that you saw on may 13th the difference is exhibit z shows a reduced case obey sfaefd instead of 3 hundred and thirty parking spaces to that clearly it's not ports interest to book as many cruise calls and events as feasible the priority is to book as many cruise calls as possible and most of the ports inflict is deprived if the passenger fee and when the peer 27 sits empty book events and use the ground transportation area for the waterfront parking.
9:41 pm
to reiterate the ports intention per the advisory panel was to promote the cruise in san francisco as noted in the september 2007 staff presentation it explicitly noted quote cries terms are not a generate our of the port similar to the convention center they operate as lost leaders they bring people to the city but the city lose money hour very generate constitutional returned to the city and enhances the cities reputation as a world-class waterfront city and tourist designation as well as preserves and promotes one of hitting its maritime industries. as noted in the may 13 presentation the port must look
9:42 pm
for revenue opportunity and look at the cost side of the operations particularly the dredging costs port staff has tried to have a state of the art cries facility but that is which is financially responsible. port staff firmly buildings that the metro agreement will allow the recommendations to be set forth by advisory panel. therefore the port staff recommendations that the port commission approves in terms of described in the staff report with the caveat there's no resolution with respect to the b cdc permanent academy for its use as a part-time investor resource. the staff further
9:43 pm
recommendations that the port commission ports executive director for the ability to negotiate different terms with metro pending the outcome with the discussions of b cdc. the approval of the agreement will allow them to begin the operation from pier 25 to 27 so pier 27 can be proclaim by late september. it's critical that there allow metro to directly book events and begun the implementation to attract yourselves that's it i want to see that peter daily and john and grass and tom carter and james are here to answer all of us here to answer questions they've been instrumental in

pitting this together >> so moved. is there a second. public comment? first person is shawn >> hi. you know, you don't have opportunities like this come around very often we all know that is a pretty special project but one of the things you look for in success is leadership and stefan have stepped up and we have a super cargo and that's james and they've invested time and effort because super cargo gets the passengers off and the bags moved i'm confident when

9:50 pm
and the parking and staging so marked with the events we had to call the visitor parking at the time other environmental issues. >> 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
9:51 pm
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 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
9:52 pm
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 million dollars deficit budget we have to maintain it's very important i go on record ac b c needs to take a look at the pursue verify of the financial robot and what maintain what we need to maintain he in terms of maintaining the quality i guess from my standpoint in walking in that area lots of open access. >> those remarks will be very helpful thank you. commissioner murphy. commissioner brandon >> i want to congratulate the
