something because victor was concerned he was a member of the n nc board and now on the agency he's a little bit couldn't be here. >> the n m mc as you may know is really in the provision of caregiver services for youth and families they're not in the residential or housing business they're not in the business of running residential units so the project that is being contemplated is not operated by them it would be the 35 units or more operated by mercy charities so it was contemplated this asset would be either incorporated into a larger project or sold or potentially demolished unfortunately, because it's a historical asset is wouldn't be demolished we

enclosed that possibility so the board voted in order to comply with historical preservation laws and policies it will not move to demolish it even though there might have been an argument the need for greater immensity we might have been able to get the approval from the commission we decided we were working in partnering with the city not to pursue that at the end of the day that's one of the reaps why m mc decided to secondly, it it will be a greater liability for money to take it councilmember their program 80s to rehab the building it's a significant sizeable property and it exceeds over 35 hundred square feet more or less so it would cost them a lot of money and really that

money can better be spent in stabilizing the services they currently provide into investing the money into higher immensity the other way of commissioner bustos the m mc about bring 35 units on the market at the expels of one that will be sold in the open market to answer your question. >> thank you okay any other questions? >> i want to know if the mayor the mayor's office of housing has to say anything? good afternoon teresa mayor's office of housing of community development we're looking forward to the assignment of

early december i want to point out you have a revised reducing resolution in front of you basically, we made editing changes and fixed some type we're recommending approval of t the first amendment and we may make some minor changes going forward as we near the end of the transaction i'm here as well as at representative if the transbay joint powers authority to answer questions thank you. >> thank you do we have speaker cards. >> i have no speaker cards okay and do we have questions or comments concerns board members of the commission?

commissioner mondejar >> yes. i'd like to hear from the tjpa representatives for their comments. >> obviously you need the financing. >> i'm deborah miller the egyptian and one of the principles in norwalk this transaction i have scott the elective affairs with the tjpa as well as bryant jen kings from the tjpa i want to first start off by thanking the staff for their assistance in negotiating this transaction we've struck a balance for the tjpa to move forward with the financing in the interim basis as needed in order to allow construction to move forward as planned while protecting the agencies interests in affordable housing and the fire chief development

of parcel f and block 4. >> i like to hear the comments of the financial advisor. >> hi, i'm as deborah mentioned the financial advisor to the tjpa as evidenced in an early staff report to the tjpa board back when tjpa staff identified a need for funding we went and reached out to the tiff learned the department of transportation asked us to draw down the loan before we met the conditions present they agreed to amend it to allow us to seek interim

finance we have a competition which we have an valuation mranl panel that contained the cities department of finance and interviewed 6 out of the 9 entities and viewing a spectrum of direct loans with the bank and capital markets where short-term or long-term as well as replacements and at that time the golden sacking bank for direct loan is most in terms of due diligence everybody else for the most part look at the transaction offering up transactions and the loan is for 4 years. >> it was 4 years. >> how is it going to be paid this is one of the reasons we

come before you today i'm sure you're aware of the tiff loan is supported by a pledge of tax increment revenue we've been getting from parcel t and 6 other components is additional capital contributions from the transit in general $417 million we expect to get even though initial tax increment is loans $15 million it is not able to pay the hundreds and $75 million we'll capitalize interest we'll on day one have an account to pay off the interest requirements for investigators and then what the assumption is courtney mentioned hopefully by third quarter of next year we will expect to meet the tiff requirements and get the

disbursement and take out the payments. >> do you know how the - >> i'm sorry. >> the interest rate. >> i believe as indicated i hope you received in our packets but it is a loan based on months it is currently around 2.33 and the credit spread in the first year will be 2 hundred and 25 basis points the overall amount will be 2 you know a little bit below 2 hundred 5 percent and requirement in order to structure the capitalized interest we're going to going get into a hedge that cost is embedded within the bridging. >> okay. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> so he presume the use

interim egyptian and this district attorney's office make sure the dot all the i's and cross the t's so everybody is reading the same language we're fully protected. >> we've been working closely jim is our interim council and the city attorney's office is representing and carol wong is representing their department of real estate it's a due diligence review on our part certainly on the part of the tjpa the cycle of comments come back from god man we appreciated the commissions patience in getting the documents to you, we have reviewed it we do feel in the event number one even we do expect the bridge loan will be paid by tiff precedes we plan for the worse in the event that

happens there are provisions in the loan there's a lien price we can moved forward on parcel f and block had the likelihood we'll do so it's difficult because block 4 courtney mentioned the double prime are being used for the temporary terminal and bus ramp reconstruction we can't move forward without the tjpa so even so we plan for the unlikely for the worse case scenario so we can move forward number 2 again, we don't expect it to happen but again for some reason there's a foreclosure action could we still moved on those and fulfill

our obligations in the requirement we've embedded those in the transactions we've planned and done our due diligence and planned for it. >> okay. thank you i move that. >> okay we have a motion by commissioner singh do we have a second. >> second. >> commissioner mondejar has seconded it commissioner singh's motion madam clerk, please call the roll. >> commissioner mondejar commissioner singh supervisor bustos is absent public utilities madam chair rosales 3 i's and one absent. >> so the resolution is adapted thank you please call the next item are the the next order of business public comment on the items. >> madam chair. >> are there are no speaker

>> happy arbor day, everyone. we have a lot of volunteers from the richmond district center. i grew up in the california area, ended up at uc-davis. i made my way out to san francisco in 1984 when i was a college student. i remember growing up on clement street. i have always lived around in richmond area, just being around a unique area of the richmond, discovering san francisco in the 1980's. >> i am hoping we can not support small businesses like this because they are the unique character that makes neighborhoods like this so rich

and lively to live in. >> i have also been active as a community organizer. i worked at the chinese progressive association. i also worked at the mental health center in the richmond district. i have always been passionate about civil rights, equality for everyone. i have a 10-year-old daughter, so having a girl has made me much more sensitive to gender equality issues. i guess i have always been vocal about my politics, but as a supervisor, i have to listen to other perspectives and making decisions. >> very soon there will be of much more seniors in that area. we are trying to focus on whether a stop sign or stoplight might help. >> tried to look at issues of senior nutrition programs, alzheimer's research, even housing policies that allowed our buildings to become more senior-friendly. also looking at how to support

senior services, neighborhood- by-neighborhood programs that allow aging in place. people who are getting older helping each other stay in their homes and communities longer so that they can contribute as long as possible, as opposed to institutionalizing them. >> i support working families, livable communities, definite drawn support for the small business. even in my district, there are pockets of poverty and many people of work. so it is also about supporting those under employed people, small businesses in this difficult economy. >> there are a lot of vacant storefronts, so we are trying to find people to read these spaces. there is a bookstore over there. this way there are a lot of businesses that have been closing. >> i support the small

businesses versus more chain stores that seem to be coming in to some of the vacant storefronts. i am trying to be sensitive to the local merchants because they make up the unique character and diversity of our neighborhoods. you go to lafayette. i was just there reading to a bunch of kids. i think i was reading to fifth graders. what grade are you in? >> as a member of the school board, i know strong schools in the richmond is key. also, from the birth to 5 commission -- each commission has an organization to oversee pre-kindergarten kids. i want to ensure that the state level that we advocate strong support for young children and their families, good parenting support as well. >> often, we have to govern with our hearts. 80,000 people in the richmond district sometimes have different needs than people in

the mission district or bayview hunters point. so often, elected officials and other hard working staff have to make tough decisions. they are political in nature, in many ways, even though people denied that, but at times, many of us are politicians, but we always try to govern with our hearts. >> i have always considered myself having progressive politics. i believe in a vision of people having their needs met. i believe in equity. when people have special needs, we should be considered of that. i also feel that working families in the lowest income population should have a safety net. we should have civil-rights and equality rights for people as well. if that is being a progressive, then i am proud of being a progressive.

please stand by... >> >> >> okay. good afternoon. welcome to our rules committee meeting for thursday november 6, 2014. i'm supervisor norman yee and joined by kate tang and david campos and would like
