gardens. terracing or bleachers where people can sit and have lunch or just contemplate the park, but become a place of gathering where people can get together. i think some of these are the planting areas that go into the areas along the park and gardens. also notice the interlocking of rectangularprism prisms. that open us to terraces or dining terrace on the park and the same applies at the other end there's a similar treatment for other dining on the park and along the canal. and hopefully this will create a whole new life along that

canal and that park. . thank you very much. >> unlike the other mission bay south residential projects, this project has an inclusionary housing component. it depends on whether or not it's rental or for sale. if it's for sale condos that project would fee out at 20%. if it's a rental we have a requirement for 15% of the units to be affordable and 16% of the area median income. we're probably not going to know whether or not the project is going to be for sale or rental or mixture of both. it could be both -- one is rental, one is condo. we're not going to know that until we get closer to building permits. assuming the whole project is rental. and we worked with the developer to identify those based on the opa requirements

that basically being units should be comparable in location and bedroom size as market rate. if you look at the breakdown on bedroom allocation for the project overall, compared to the inclusionary units, you have the same ratio as much as you can round it to between the two. also, and i'm going to slip through these quickly just to give you sense -- we've worked with them to ensure they're scattered throughout the different floors. they're equally allocated compared to the market rate. for the low rise building, the red one, they're on every floor, so the taller one they had them up to the 11th floor. the reason we didn't go up higher is the opa allows these if they're rental, to convert to condos. and typically with hoa fees the higher you go, the more expensive it is. we want to make sure they're not being penalized for being

affordable, but if someone's been there ten years they're able to go to the condos. you can come by if you have questions. if you watch the little orange dot it see them flashing around it's an easy way to see them moving around as we go up the building. kind of skip around and make sure they have nice views as well. now we're getting to thealer side. tim doesn't have it, they actually asked them to move up a little higher so we have slightly higher views and then hit the 11th floor and the rest of the floors above are market rate. as we've done in some of the previous designs under the opa we're allowed to amend the major save as part of the subsequent approval actions. in this case it's part of height zone two. in mission bay we allocate base

height, tower, tower height by height zone so there's kind of a bucket that's assigned to each height zone and then through the major phase process we assign them. in this case there was an excess of height zone two where block one was as that came out of the last major phase, they wanted some moi nor increases to the mid rise and tower. 373 feet of mid rise and 704 feet from tower. you can't tell from design point, but we want to make sure we're tracking everything. that includes the minor amendment, just rounding out the few hundred square feet of those and there's plenty of allocation in the plan to allow that. this did go in front of our mission bay advisory committee on may 8. they voted to approve the design, but asked the developer to come back and continue discussion on the r 1 and jessie's going to act as my van

that white to show as changes go. for the meeting we had on may 21 focused on the shorter building as well as the interface with the parks. so some of the issues we raised were kind of asking for additional color, breaking up the massing of that smaller building, ensuring that the green wall from the poed jum dium down into the open space was designed in a way that would work and making sure the park's front edge was integrated between the two. we'll start with the corner, designers came back, switched the material alty. ity. the low rise was all the same material. that corner tower was changed to a different material and color to have it pop out and break it out. the bars -- the concept is always going to be a row of brick housing, kind of the old brown stones to really have those pop out, the windows from

segments in between, they used to have hoshsonnal metal panels. those came out and went to a clear glass thing so now you have this kind of much stronger vertical break between all of them. also for the green wall, it's a really great concept, i don't know if you see the little pocket things, you get the fun plans. they're great. we don't -- they've not been tried at mission bay and it's a very difficult environment so you'll see a condition of approval in there that they have to incorporate into the design the ability to retro fit the wall with binds, which we do know work. we didn't want them have them not try something fun and exciting, but wanted to make sure it was cheap to retro fit if it doesn't survive. after we finish today our next

step is to go back and revisit the park plan, see if there's any tweaking that needs to be done toreflect this design and make sure they continue to work well together. after that meeting majority [inaudible] expressed they thought their improvements with the design and thought they were a success. just to continue to explore additional ways to break down the massing, incorporate some of the ideas community had, different colors for the doorway, different ways you can kind of individualize these different brown stone frontages in minor ways that carry the individuality throughout. and then finally as jessie mentioned they've been doing great on meeting the agency's sbe program. complying with our non discrimination contracts, minimum compensation, healthcare and accountability policies. today 60% of their budget has

gone to sbe. almost all of that 52% are san francisco based sbes. again, the grandma jorty of the sbes we have are not just san francisco based, but also women own minority owned companies so they've done a terrific job. as we go forward they'll continue to work with [inaudible] at shaving our contracting goal for construction, the 50% abe sub contracting goal, prevailing wages and 50% local contract construction local hire goal. next steps is we move into design development. if you've approved the designs today and construction drawings, then we can start construction in spring of next year with completion two years later in spring of 2017.

this concludes staff presentation. i wanted to thank george bridges, christine, and [inaudible] for working on this project and we're all available to answer any questions. thank you. >> thank you very much. can we have public comment on this item? >> ms. woods. >> good afternoon. my name's ms. woods, vice chair of the -- >> other one, that one. >> vice chair of the mission bay citizen's advisory committee. we had a very good, active discussion on this project at our regular cac meeting and as a result of a lot of questions, the architect and developers had a smeshl meeting two weeks later where they responded very effectively to our concerns. i don't know if you guys have

been down to mission bay lately but it's really boring, a lot of it. we asked them to jazz up the colors a little bit to give us some variety. we asked them to modulate the design so it didn't look as chunky and they have responded, i think well on that. there were a lot of concerns about the actual ground plane at the pedestrian level of -- especially along channel street, and they have responded to that. i think the discussions are ongoing. the staff recommendations are totally appropriate and we ask your support. thank you. >> thank you. are there any other speaker cards. >> no other cards. >> any other public comment? i'd like to turn to commissioners for comments or questions. commissioner ellington.

>> i have a question about the middle courtyard, quad area. specifically about the -- like, the access points. and i guess where from -- where can you ent the quad, is it open to the public. i saw a pool there and i want to know if the pool is heated. [laughter] >> jessie, commissioner. good question. maybe we can switch the -- >> slide 11. >> slide, yeah. if possible, just to give the public a visual. so the main entry ingress and egress point for what we call the residential podium is outlined in that red dotted line there. the entrance -- or the entrance into the podium is [inaudible] controlled for residents so the

podium itself is geared ed toward the residents, however, it's part of our interaction with the community and staff, there was a real desire to connect the main entrance to open up that entrance and make a connection to the park that's both visual and physical. so what we did was obviously created the vertical green element, which ties in very nicely to the park itself and i want to give a special shout out to cmg who wasn't able to participate in the presentation, but they've done a great job thinking through how these elements integrate. and we're providing some of our private property to extend the park into what would have been the private realm of the project, which is that portion of the image you see here, that's that bench seating, the bleacher seating, technically on our property, but we felt like it was important to sort of embrace the park, embrace the public nature of this and

so that'll be just great seating to get a little elevation as they're enjoying the park and see the channel and so forth. but the podium is key controlled for residents. >> on slide 11 there's a dashed red line going down the middle. is that -- >> slide 11. >> it's the hotel scope. >> yeah. >> that one? >> no. there's -- >> oh, right here. that dashed red line there? >> yeah. >> that represents the dividing line between the phasings of the project. as mentioned in the beginning, we designed this project to be two independently developable projects, r 1 and 2, so that's the property line as it were. >> got you. >> eagle vision. >> that's not a wall or gate or --

>> no. it simply signifies where the actual property line [inaudible]. >> perfect, thank you so much. is the pool heated? >> it will be toasty warm. >> the pool's not open to the public. it's part of the amenities for the building, i think. i have a question. i know one of the comments in the mission bay, cac folks was about vehicle access and so i know that we talked about the parking already, but i thought there were some carve outs along third street and are they reflected in the construction documents? i couldn't tell if those with supposed to be waiting area. for the street scape. >> you're asking about the carve outs for the -- along third street.

>> along third street, yeah. >> i mean, katherine's here to answer that, but here's the scheme of the ground level. >> okay. so you got a good -- actually, it asked them to take those out. a request they had was to allow for drop off and pick up there. it's an mta since the [inaudible] mta issue so it's not approved and we'll go ahead and clean that up. it's a discussion we need to have with mta on city policy and whether or not it makes sense for them to have that on tra street. >> i apologize because i am constantly working on that. [inaudible]. i'm still working that out. i do know that was a request so i'll go hound them. [laughter] okay. commissioner ellington. >> we talked about having the option of the units being for

sale or rental. in the case of the units being rental, are they being managed by a specific cdc or how does that transaction work? >> i'll ask sally to come up because i can't answer this correctly. there'll be inclusionary units managed by the property owners themselves. once they're completed we've entered into agreement with the mayor's office of housing, community development, and so they will actually manage and oversee it to ensure they meet the requirements and have the ongoing -- that they're meeting all the affordabilities for the term and all the requirements for the marketing. >> got you. okay. >> i think -- it's a beautiful design and everything looks so

nice and color coordination and i just have one question. about the junior bedroom. the junior bedrooms -- junior bedroom, you have 25 and -- >> genuine bedrooms, otherwise known as studios. >> we call them -- >> what is the size of that? >> they range in size, on average about 550. i mean, it is a good opportunity to say one thing, which i wasn't able to say at the beginning, but this project generally has larger units across all of the unit sizes than pretty much any project in mission bay. we decided to go a little bit larger in part in order to address the market, but also to try to bring more families to

mission bay. the junior 1s themselves are very generous. they're not just an open room with a sleeping area. they're actually physically divided off sleeping rooms. the only reason they're called junior 1s is because they don't sit on a window line, but are as big as a typical one bedroom. >> i was looking a few months ago they built i think two or three [inaudible] . . >> we have none of those. i think our smallest unit is 550, which is a generous studio. >> i move this item, as everything looks very good. >> excellent. i do have -- is there a second? >> second. >> before we move on to the vote, i do have one final question. so i think ms. woods made a comment about mission bay being

a little boring. as a resident myself, i live down there, i think part of the reason for that is because a lot of the retail space hasn't been activated on the grund floor. have you guys already made >> we're really excited about both sides of the retail, in particular we think those are real opportunity. the corner that faces the ballpark to do a really wonderful west raunt. ful restaurant. we think there's opportunity because of the park like setting and the ballpark that's allowing us to have tables and chairs spill out over the park. [inaudible] and we're already

talking to restaurant tours about that and we think there's an opportunity to help do that with us. the other side of the project where we've concentrated the retail at fourth and channel relates more to the fourth street retail concept that you guys have already made significant progress on and really activating fourth street so we're the end of that retail experience. we think it's the opportunity to subdivide that up into smaller spaces and do kind of much more local serving uses with a lot of focus on food, but also services for the neighborhood. we don't have tenants in it yet that we can announce, but there's been tremendous amount of interest in both sides of the project. >> okay. thank you very much. okay. one more, yes. commissioner mondejar.

>> question, on exhibit h -- i don't know what the slide is on that, but in my binder, i just have a question. it says this is the building on the side -- yeah, this one. and this greenery on the top floor on this side. yeah, this one on the other side. is that, like, actually, like, a garden or just a terrace or -- i missed that in your presentation. >> this is a green roof, which provides nice visual from the windows. it also prevents reflection from sun into the windows and provides insul lation. it's a very solution for roofs and it also deals with a roof as a facade because it is actually a facade when there are windows looking down.

it is not an occupied roof simply because of fire code and city requirements. we're required [inaudible] stairs because of the number of square feet. it's a life safety code as it is currently existing and that's limiting with what we can do as use, but in terms of the visual aspect of roof [inaudible] and i think it is -- it will make that view nicer for all those units. >> when you say green it's greenery or -- >> grass. >> grass, okay. >> planted, ground cover, a certain depth and usually plants that don't require maintenance that are native plants that grow naturally in this weather and this environment. >> thank you, great. >> can i make a comment. i want commend the entire team.

i think as commissioner singh said it's a beautiful design. i commend you and it sounds like you have a fantastic local team and i applaud you. >> thank you very much. there's been a motion and second. so secretary please call the role. >> ellington. >> yes. >> mondejar. >> yes. >> singh. >> yes. >> rosales. >> yes. >> johnson. >> i. >> the vote is five ist. >> i'd like to thank the mission bay cac. we appreciate all their efforts to getting us here. thank you very much. next item. >> next order of business is 5e, overview of ocii small business enterprise, sbe and work force programs. report on sbe and local hiring goals in comparison with city and san francisco programs, discussion. >> commissioners, this is

simply an informational report for discussion. this is really a look back on how we're doing on the programs, both our local contracting and work force programs and this report stems from a request from you to present any aggregate. you certainly see it on a project by project basis but what does this mean in totality. as part of that thought and comparison and standard, how is the city doing? how are they doing? how do our programs compare? this is meant to be a comprehensive presentation on those items and certainly is the start of other presentations on this. so with that, i'd like to ask ray lee who's the contract compliance supervisor to present this item. >> good afternoon madam chair and commissioners. i'm ray lee, contract compliance supervisor. what i'd like to achieve today if i can is to provide an overview of the ocii equal

opportunity programs, specifically in the areas of contracting and local hiring work force programs. as mentioned, i'd like to provide you an analysis of agency performances, some comparisons to city programs, but i caution you about the comparisons. you shouldn't directly compare it because it's not quite apple to apple. and answer any questions you may have about our programs, in particular begin dialogue for any future information that may be needed. >> i'd like to start with an overview of the ocii equal opportunity programs. presented on the slides here is really just a side-by-side comparison of ocii's equal opportunity programs and what

exists within the city. as you can see it mirrors in effect city ordinances. as an agency that's separate from the city, efforts have been undertaken by the redevelopment agency to effect important ordinances passed by the city at a policy level. so beginning with the small business enterprise policy, it doesn't mirror the city of san francisco, but the intent is there in terms of encouraging and promoting small and local businesses. along with that, is the non discrimination and equal benefits policy. that o that of course is enacted in accordance to the city's 12b and c ordinances. the healthcare accountability policy, it mirrors the city's healthcare ordinance, along with the minimum compensation. what is different that i'd like

to highlight are some areas in the work force aspect, as well as prevailing wage. the work force requirements, of course, has long existed with the redevelopment agency and ocii. it effectively requires implementation of work force hiring on private projects that does not exist with the city. and then also with the prevailing wage policy what was unique in this sentence is that we require our contractors and developers to pay prevailing wages where state law does not require it to do so, but that's a foresight of the prior redevelopment agency. i did want to mention that on june 10, 2014, the board of

supervisors did adopt expansion of the local hiring ordinance to effectively also apply local hiring and prevailing wages on effectively ly private projects on public land and i believe that's pending the mayor's approval or enactment. more specifically about the small business program with ocii, since 2004, ocii has adopted a policy that effectively carries forward the minority and women business program that existed with the agency for many years. it's an evolution of their program. the objective of course has always been to ensure that small disadvantaged businesses have opportunity to participate on agency assisted projects. unique with the agency here is that it calls for a program on private projects in redevelopment areas. we of course accomplished this

by entering into agreements with developers to implement the small business policy. we established aggressive overall goals of 50% and require developers and contractors to exercise effectively good faith efforts to meet those goals. what does good faith mean? it calls for developer to work with ocii staff in areas that small business can participate, even those areas that a contractor may perform with its own labor force. we look at areas that can be performed by the small business themselves and we ask that the contractors and developers exercise aggressive outreach efforts of the small businesses to ensure that there is a contracting opportunity and to ensure that the community does know that there is a contracting opportunity for competitive bidding. i do want to say that under that competitive bidding, many

of the contractors and developers do look at small business participation as one of the deciding factors in awarding their contracts and they work closely with the ocii staff to really make that effort to achieve that 50% goal. along with the good faith outreach is requiring developers and contractors, again, to ensure that the opportunities known. what that means is not only advertising direct contact with the businesses, but also conducting prebids and presubmittal meetings at least 30 days in advance. the intent here is to ensure that a small business knows that there is a contracting opportunity, there's sufficient time for him or her to respond to that. so again, we make every effort to work the developers within those timeframes. a little bit more about the
