and how it's worked over time. our last slide is the work is load from a labor standpoint. those spikes up are 2015. so we're hitting a major workload at this point and we'll be up there for a while. then it will start trending down in 2016. so 2015 is one of our biggest years for the trades and the projects. so with that, that is my pla quarterly report. thank you. >> director harper? >> what is the problem with the laborers on the apprentices? it seems the opposite. an operator can hurt a lot of people quickly. laborers, it should be reversed. there should be many more apprentice laborers than operators. >> they definitely need to do more out reach for laborers, because quite frankly the halls are empty and the challenge of

getting more apprentices in the program. i think the carpenters and electricians and shimmick who would be our major source at this point would have been with the concrete has had a challenge. now maybe with the bus ramp as we get into the bus ramp project should have another big opportunity and the 7.2 package. obviously the steel package won't have as much and when we get to the site civil, which will be coming here in the springtime . that is probably a great opportunity to bring more laborer apprentices to the program. >> director reiskin. >> so that issue aside, the apprenticeship numbers are fantastic, which is great. it's just great legacy and ancillary benefit from the project that we're getting so many people apprenticed in their trade as we're building

the project. when we were contemplating the pla, there was a fair bit of discussion on the board -- i don't think there was much if any opposition, but it was mostly around apprenticeship. my question is, how much of the success in apprenticeship would you say is attributable to the fact that we have a pla in place, if you can estimate that in any way? >> it's tough to estimate. i know the pla itself has been wonderful in bring the teams to the -- everyone to the table and working through. i have been able to project out my -- the needs of the project, in a very open communication form. so i'm sure that has helped. i'm sure it's helped having them at the table, when i show them figures of what is coming up that they know how to project. and those apprentice classes have got to be a direct

correlation to what our workload is. >> i would say it's had a direct correlation, director reisch reiskin and the pla is the reason we see that. i don't think there is any question of that. >> thank you. >> thank you directors. that concludes my report. >> thank you. at this time we'll move to the next item, the citizens advisory committee update. >> madame chairperson, directors, the cac joins you in congratulating the staff, the contractors and crews for how far we have come in making the dream come true. it is truly inspiring what we saw today and in the report that they gave us earlier in the week. i just would like to draw your attention to a couple of things in the report.

one thing, when dennis was speaking on that tremendous workforce slide that we have and this is what each of you were discussing earlier. that story is such a sterling story to tell to our public and nationwide. where we see how many manufacturers and laborers are being drawn into this project right here. the other thing that is important is not merely nationwide the one that steve showed there of where our labor is coming from within the bay area. and the third one that was just shown here with the apprentices. so this is a real story that we can all celebrate but especially due to the staff having created that. the second thing i would like to draw your attention to is in steve's report, and in his new formulation of the focus on our

new milestones. i think steve's representative of the entire staff there, where we are working on transparency and communication and clarity to the public. i really commend them on that, and i have seen multiple instances of that, but this is just one more instance. and really the cac was impressed with scott's presentation. the outreach, which as he himself says is the basis for going forward once the construction is finished and the building is operational. but all of that outreach, keeping the commitment with the public. so the public sees this as their project, and their partnership with us, all of those are highly to be commended. we were tremendously impressed and to take one more moment

from scott's slide, the ppi 100, you have the world's fair centennial and the work that went into creating that world's fair is similar to what you are doing here with our own transbay terminal. just as you are facing a critical time when the city is going through much construction and other things, well so, too, at the world's fair. eight years earlier, the city was destroyed, and to have done both things, just as you are creating this, while all of the construction is going on around you, that is revitalizing the supervisor's district with, with all the buildings and all of the amenities, you all are really to be congratulated. thank you,. >> thank you. so at this time, we'll open up for general

public comment? >> i have not received any indications -- looks like mr. patrick. please come up. >> good morning, directors. i see we have had 1.3 million hours, labor hours, that is good news. i would like to take ten of those hours or 100th of one percent to devote to long-range planning. guess what? we were mentioned. i don't understand that. we're building a $3 billion system and how are we going to connect? what is the system's approach? i think you need to have a surette that you see up-and-down market street and other places where we talk about what is going on in the planning phase?

in the long-range planning phase -- not the short range, but the long-range. there is a lot that needs to be done. because we may well miss the boat and if we miss the boat, the ship will sail and the ship may sink. we want policies and procedures that achieve that as a basic concept and result and we need to promote that. i believe that is your responsibility. thank you. >> thank you. that concludes members of the public who wants to address you under that item. you can go ahead and move into your regular calendar. >> we'll close general public comment and move into our special calendar. >> all right 8 is approving the minutes of the december 11, 2014 meeting. >> so we have a motion to move it forward and second. are there any comment on this item? seeing none, roll call on this item. >> with no members of the public wanting to address you, director lee? >> yes. >> director nuru . yes. >> aye. >> director reiskin?

>> aye. >> vice-chair harper? >> aye. >> and chair kim? >> aye. >> that is five ayes and the minutes are approved. >> next item. >> the next item is the election of the chair and vice-chair pursuant to the transbay joint powers authority agreement. >> at this time we'll take nominations for both chair and vice-chair for the tjpa board. [laughter ] >> i know it was a highly coveted seat that i sit in. i am glad i have inspired d the members. do we have a nomination? i would like to nominate our vice-chair greg harper to svr as chair. it's been great to serve over

the last to years to serve on this committee and to get to know director harper who has come back. he was at the founding of this board of directors and the historical knowledge that you have of this project is immense. so i have enjoyed getting to know you, but also appreciate learning from you. and also, i think this will be one of the first or it's been a while since we had an east bay representative >> it would be the first. >> it would be of the first time that we had an east bay member as chair of the transbay joint powers authority and i will make that motion for director harper to be chair. >> second. >> so we have a second. seeing no further comments, i will take from the silence an acceptance of the motion. >> so can we take a roll call on the motion. >> yes, motion to elect director harper as chair of the

tjpa and no members of the public wanting to comment on the item, director harper? >> yes. >> are you sure? no, kidding. director kim? >> aye. >> director lee? >> yes. >> director nuru? >> yes. >> director reiskin? >> aye. >> that is five ayes and motion to elect director harper as chair has passed. >> thank you very much. >> on your other seat, election of vice-chair, do we have a nomination? >> do i actually hand over the chairship now or chair this? >> i liked your first suggestion. >> well, i will finish this part and then i will hand over the gavel. at this time we'll open up nominations for vice-chair. are there any motions that we can entertain at this time? >> director nuru. >> i will second that motion.

>> we have a first and second on a motion for director nuru as vice-chair and i think given my words about the longevity and hard work that director harper has brought to be board, i think it's also appropriate that the newest member serve as leadership role on the board. >> we have a second. >> no members of public to address you. with that, to elect director nuru as vice-chair? >> director hammer? >> aye. >> director kim? >> aye. >> director lee? >> yes. >> director nuru . yes. >> and director reiskin? >> aye. >> that is fivay ayes and motion to elect director nuru as vice-chair is passed as well. >> thank you. i want to thank the staff for

all your work and working with our office and your office and i hope our office hasn't been too frustrating to work with given the breath of work that we have to work with all. it's really been a pleasure and i look forward to working with both chair harper and vice-chair nuru on the tjpa. i will hand over the gavel for the best part of the unit. meeting. >> that concludes your for today. >> nobody objects to that. >> prior to adjourning i wanted to speak on behalf the tjpa staff and thank our chairperson kim for her years' of service as our chair and her professionalism and it's been a real pleasure to work with your office. and your commitment and we appropriate your work and we

congratulate our new chair, director harper who has been with us in the founding of the tjpa. congratulations and welcome. and of course, our new vice-chair nuru, it's been real pleasure working with you. >> that will be very comforting to me and i hope the board members will excuse my clumsiness over the next few weeks and nila, too, because she knows 9 the east bay and it's different. [laughter ] >> we'll have to work out how these meetings go. i think i never lost sight and won't lose sight of the fact this is a san francisco project and how much it affects the

city and county of san francisco. i mean, just looking at it, you kind of get that idea. so it's just an honor to be selected with your trust. i hope that you will still be as active as you have been with your constituents, because they are so important to us in this neighborhood. i think the job of a chair, this is my attitude at ac transit, where i chaired for several years, i just have one job and that is to get issues in front of this board as early as they can be cognized for our input. and that is about it. but i'm going to work at that very hard. so thank you very much. and we're adjourned [ gavel ]

. >> good afternoon, everyone, welcome to the city and county of san francisco neighborhood and safety committee. my name is david camp camp, i am chair of the committee, we are joined today by committee member supervisor norman yee, eric mar will be excused. clerk of the

committee is derrick evans and we want to thank mark bunch, mr. clerk, do we have any announcements? >> thank you, mr. chair. please make sure to silence all cell phones and electronic devices. speaker cards and copies of documents to be included in the file should be handed to the clerk. >> this is the first meeting of this committee in the new year, so happy new year, everyone. before we go on to our items can we have a motion to excuse supervisor mar? so we have a motion by supervisor yee without objection, supervisor mar is excused. mr. clerk, if you can please call item 1. >> item 1 is a hearing on proposed hearing shelter rules including but not limited to the reasons necessitating the promulgation of such rules and the imposition of uniform rules and requesting that the human

services agency and department of public health and mayor's office on disability report. >> this is a very important item introduced by supervisor jane kim. supervisor kim has asked that we continue this item to the call of the chair and we will make sure whether we remain chair or not that it's put on the next agenda. before we act on that, if we can open it up to public comment, even though the item will be continued any member of the public who would like to speak on this item you have an opportunity to speak. you have up to 3 minutes. if you'd like please come on up. >> yes, i am here regarding this issue. i guess i just am very concerned in that it seems like the shelters are creating all these rules and being willing

to say things like who they were and were not going to allow into the shelter system based on ability or disability. so i guess i'm just very, i guess i'm just very angry and concerned in that they are going to exclude people from these shelters on ability or disability and then they are going to come back to the board of supervisors and the city and county of san francisco and then start to ask for more money later. and then the other parts of it was they are talking about tape recordings and different things like this and it's very concerning in that they are going to set up all the rules and regulations regarding what's going to happen in the shelter systems. and on average the people who live in these shelters don't have a voice. and then if they do come to the meeting they might get retaliated against or they are so overran by service

providers that what they have to say is going to be negated. so these are some of my main concerns and i think for me the other part of the situation is how do we get to more of a transparency regarding holding the service providers accountable for improprieties? so if you understand their history there's been some major criminal activities that have happened in the shelter systems and i'm wondering if there's any real safeguards for any of those people who have done major criminal activities in the shelters from reapplying to another shelter system or to that shelter system after the people who have fired them move

on to somewhere else. so i think we need some more teeth and somebody that will be more transparent to the public. i don't think that body is the department of human services. their staff, no faith in them holding their service providers accountable. thank you. >> thank you, sir. seeing no other member of the public to speak on this item, public comment is closed. if we could have a motion to continue this item to the doll of the chair? motion by supervisor yee. if we can take that without objection. without objection, this item will be continued to the call of the chair. mr. clerk. >> item 2 is the transfer of a transfer beer and wine public

premises license from 638 4th street to 855harrison street for todd zucker for bbck enterprises, d.b.a. k & l wine merchants. >> we have heard from our police department who has requested this item be filed. there was a misunderstanding concerning whether or not this type of review was needed but before we take action on that request i'd like to open it up to public comment. any member of the public who would like to speak on this item? seeing none public comment is closed. i don't know if our alu would like to say anything beyond that. great. so if we could have a motion to file this item, motion by supervisor yee, we'll take that without objection. thank you. mr. clerk, if you can call item no. 3. >> item no. 3 is a hearing to consider the transfer of a type 48 on sale public premises license for expansion of

premises located at 101 6th street the to tadd cortell dooing business as monarch. >> if we can begin by asking the applicant to come and speak. good afternoon, welcome to the neighborhood services committee. >> it's pretty much what derek mentioned. >> if you can identify yourself. >> tadd cortell from electric resistance society. we operate under the name of monarch. we expanded into a location next door to our current location where we have been the past 3 years. we operate a nightclub and cocktail lounge. we expanded the cocktail lounge portion upstairs into the property next door and the abc required that we get a pcn approval. that is why we're here this afternoon. >> can you talk a little bit

about your interaction with the community, discussions with the district supervisor? >> we've been in contact with sunny at jane kim's office, who is our supervisor at district 6. she has been following the progress and we have been keeping her abreast what is going on. it took a while but we got copies of approval letters. we let the neighborhood noi if there was any concerns or protests we would address them when we were made aware of them, and there were none. >> i know supervisor kim and her office are in support of this application. colleagues, any questions of the applicant? great. thank you very much, sir. why don't we now hear from our police department. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. >>. >> good afternoon, supervisors, my name is al

dwarte mr. tadd cortell has applied for a type 48 on sale general public premises license for the expansion of the premises located at 101 6th street. monarch is adding approximately 400 feet to an adjacent space that became available to their premises. monarch is currently conditioned by pcn file 100834, passed by resolution 447-10 dated september 21, 2010. none of the current operating conditions will change or be removed. the police and calls for service as well as the reports are pretty minimal. there was one police call for the year of march 2013 when the process started for the licensing of the premises till march twebt 14. five police reports were reported for that and they were

merely lost or stolen items. the plot is 222 and there are approximately 408 reported incidents for 2013, which places it in a high crime area. the census track itself is 176.01 with a population of 7,630 people, which allows for 26 licenses for on sale restaurant or bar but are or show active of 74 licenses. there were no letters of protest, no letters filed with our office and therefore the alu recommends an approval. >> thank you very much, lieutenant. colleagues, any questions? thank you. >> thank you. >> why don't we now open it up for public comment. any member of the public who likes to speak on this item, please come forward. seeing none, public comment is closed. supervisor yee. >> so i don't see any reason for not supporting this. seems

like the owners have been good neighbors and as you already mentioned, supervisor kim is supporting this so i make a motion to pass it out with a positive recommendation. >> so we have a motion to move this forward with a positive recommendation. if we can take that without objection, without objection, congratulations. thank you very much for your work with the community. mr. clerk, do we have any other business before this committee? >> there is no more business, mr. chair. >> thank you very much, meeting adjourned.
