connection project this is an action item. >> supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much mr. chair. colleagues thanks for hearing this item what you have before you is an result of a public process that took over 13 years to complete after the closer of the schlage lock factory in the 99 we partnered with universal paragon to develop a revitalization plan for this site in the community. after several years of analysis the process recently concluded with the adaptation of the redevelopment plan zoning changes a master plan to guide the changes on site, however, with the demise with the agency in 2012 the loss of tens of millions of dollars dollars in tax increments funding that

accompanied this project has required us to reaccess and give a fresh look at the community goals. it's been challenging to move forward to say the least especially moving forward without redevelopment funds but we've been able to lean on the advisory committee members it's been flexible and they've rolled up their sleeves to revitalization this project. we've been working with the mayor's office and other agencies that includes sfmta to come up with thoughtful solutions to help us meet the gap we found ourselves in after the dissolution of the redevelopment agency. what we have a simple today, i'm asking for your supporting to commit $2 million for the bay

area caltrain project adjacent to the schlage lock project site. the transportation study that was adapted in march of 2013 identified a connection to the bayer station as one of the priority. we've learned throughout the community process that transportation improvements and access continue to be a priority for the members of the southeast. now we have today will help expedite the construction of an interim pedestrian connection through the development site as the overall project is constructed that can save caltrain users more than one half a mile around the area and help. and no mystery that neighbors

are clamoring for the need for more transportation environmentalist with where we were we're dealing with demonstrateful in the distribute this includes a couple of things i want to highlight a few with schlage lock a grocery new public parks and open space and affordable housing, specifically addressing the restoration of the historic office building and payment of the payment impact fees and the infrastructure fees and most important a significant environmentalist in the community that historically has lacked little attention deserved from city hall. the residents have spent hundreds of hours working on every component of the project the solution of the redevelopment agency has resulted in changes and

compromises the community has been there so colleagues i'm asking and hopeful that you will support this incredible investment mr. chair thank you >> thank you for your comments. if no other comments we'll open up to. please come forward anyone from the public >> my name is fran i'm affiliated with the visitation planning alliance and a former member for the prop k expenditure plan for the transportation planning and implementation presently i'm on the giving me geneva r.c. the
