commission so those are comments i have and do we - so you have a yearlong plan for the first phase followed by a second phase that's also going to be a year i mean, that's a lot of work. >> i know. >> and it's needed i applaud it. >> and i think. >> i support it. >> typically our model for housing development we put our developers through a process and those developers essentially then monitoring by us but under our leadership take the lead on developing unit with this rad the mayor's office of housing and community development is doing a lot of project management we're letting the developers took the lead but project managing it on a higher

level to there's so many moving parts not to mention negotiation with hud to allow the flexibility of the rad program to make it work in a high cost city like san francisco hud programs are national address don't take a look at the region minimum wage and the cost of construction the prices we are bringing on the rehab for the portfolio they've never seen before so we kind of do a lot of work and it kind of gets just to get to the starting line we have 8 panama canal's in the city we have 4 dedicated instead of over the last year to work on those see projects we have the capacity and the been working closely with the management staff not you yet but holy to

work to in a take things our describing back to the issue of owners who own property and also organize residents and properties that is an issue bigger than this is a philosophical issue and kind of a portfolios come up for residents and the more we educate the residents about what their redress rights are once the units are convert they have a voice but they will have a voice and hopefully under clearer guidelines with our department and other departments that will get releases for quickly. >> commissioner melgar. >> thank you what an excellent presentation really wonderful

oar i'm not worried the conflict with the agencies we've been doing this for a while it's a groundbreaking program you know and i think it's pretty progressive and wonderful but i'm worried about capacity in the money so rosemary i'm also trying to put more work on you but this is a huge expansion a lot of the problems the agency see are you know because of the unit the conditions of the unit they're based on social problems lack of social status and language barriers so all of those things i totally hear there's millions of dollars of

investment the population is still the same so i think that you know over time there's going to be an increase in that workload specifically for c opt and c opt itself is not an enterprise activity so we i think could said person ahead in terms of right now, we're looking at our fee structure my own that was taking a look at when we were doing the c study but also i think that you know as part of the rad i don't know if that's an activist that was looked at i'm worried in the future we put away enough in terms of you know the department resources to make sure that the social part of this it taken care of and to work with low to make

sure we plan ahead and have enough you know when we put out the rfp for the program we take into account. >> i'll say pardon me one thing about the rad program that is probably a drop in the bucket when we talk about the need for residents to have support around organizing and having their voices heard it has a number of protection written into it both the housing authority and the owner the land and the individual landlord will be required to honor those protections and actually incorporate them into the policy one the protections is the owner has to provide $25 per unit per year to the resident they can

use for potentially any legitimately activities whether social or organizing or you know with the different developers and the endeavor they are different model some developers are more experienced and establishing robust tenant organizations than others at least an opportunity and the fact that resident will still have issues even after the conversion even after the unit i minimal are proved there's going to be issues that need attention. >> sorry commissioner lee. >> a lot of the same things we could resolve if we had our department working with you and

the tenants now on some of the issues is our department involved with the resolve what are retelling the tenants at this time. >> well, i'll tell you the extent of our involvement that our vice president right now is a straightforward again getting ready to submit applications given the priority progressing program interests coordination on the rad level but again each project is going to be coming in and standing on hispanics its own. >> the tenants have expressed any comments after the transfer and who can they go to and contact. >> the rad program requires - required before the city applied to hud for rad vaungs as a

condition to be selected we required the developers to meet mostly or have interaction with the residents on a regular basis mostly honestly resident when do we get the improvements made that's their focus the loose repairs for the last period of time recipe at first were not enthusiastic about rad is their rent goings-on to go up the answer is no displacement and no rent increase 94 now really their focus why not do it now nobody thought about the next step you know how do we bring our concerns to the tackle later that's someone something that people should be thinking about i think it's been

challenging for a lot of the developers to form a relationship with the residents they're out ciders still 33 the city owns the building still and there's not a lot of trust historically in public housing low turnout at meetings so i think we're kind of getting to the point to have the conversations with residents. >> i can bet that had been stressful for the residents and given the cost of the city. >> at some appropriate time i hope they understand we're there to help them. >> we should talk about that more because making presentations at each of the building over the next six-hundred months and having someplace from dbi coming to explain how the system typically works this is new territory important the residents if they

can hear it directly from the staff that will be helpful. >> commissioner walker. >> i think that is concern does exactly what was expressed that we want to be able to be there sooner or later to develop the relationships and make sure they said that we are here not just as our special circumstances case i think a team approach will work best our code enforcement outreach organizations who can help on a long list of things both you know dealing with the building and the construction as well as social issues i mean, i know those buildings are really they're going to be so much better off but the getting there not knowing what is happening but when necessary have to move for the record in order to get

things done now is a good time to get our program hooked up so we can figure out how much it is going to impact our staffing needs both in building inspections and housing inspections if we need to look at our code enforcement because their they do actually come to us with issues in this housing even though we are that not responsible we had the mou and heard the complaints and their accustomed with our housing distribution - it would be great to hook in now that's why our program is there our c opt

project. >> i want to recognize what a night mayor it must have been obviously going forward workout the issue but please communicate what we have we can do we said this is a journey we have to take together and this is something we need to work together any personal feeling bans the history i know change is difficult for people that live in those activity apartment is this is a new type of change that is far the better so hopefully you know in time that will present be seen as the outbursts that happened here to good luck and once again, we're here we're concerned in our role because we're as a commission i know a lot of decisions are made and we're just told to take care

of it we want to be up front and is you're going to have logic issues here how can i get to the staff level to service those people so they don't have the same experience as in the past that deals with them and brought united states to this point. >> well, thank you i was wanting to add within the rad the vendors and the city have developed a interlocking working group structure that deals with all of the issues that are being experienced by both the vendors and the team and the residents themselves and an important component each cluster is geary up to provide service connectors to help the tenants deal with their issues

and hermosa beach them to make the transits and take advantage thoughtful opportunity. >> well, thank you for inviting us here i look forward to working with you all to be thoughtful about how the next 6 or 10 months will unfold for the benefit of the resident. >> thank you very much. >> any public comment on item 5? seeing none, item 6 discussion and possible agency for appropriately a supplemental budget for telegraph hill improvement >> could i just make the disclosure on this one i believe that some part of the presentation will be made from any colleagues added public works i want to let you know that.

>> i'd like to excuse president clinch at this stage of meeting. >> good morning director huey i'm ray donald i'm the project manager for the intuitively this is any colleague who is operating the computer so we have a power point there you go next slide. >> this is the project location we wanted to bring everyone on the same package so you're familiar with the project in the north beach area next to the coit tower 3 this is looking up from the street if you look straight up to the left of building to the top the property on the lsd is rec and park and the property is block 50 a

private property we want to talk about that area today this area was also used as a query ships with come in and unload their goods and basically fleeting on the water because it's empty there was an operator that blasted the hilltop so over time it is in a danger condition it has a history of known rock slides the picture on the left was dug up at the san francisco library 1449 one hundred and 50 cube yards that dropped down the picture to the right is 2 hundred cubic lots of materials that came down in a rainstorm

2012 flash-forward two years ago this is we had 2 and a half inches of rain some came in dout do you have an opinion in the size of that tackle nobody got hurt but the car is smashed up if we're lucky nobody get hurts on the right side it is next to the condominium building and so starting from this event we did the public works did an emergency clear up took out the debris and restored the fence and embarked on an engineering study to figure out how to stabilize the hillside in general we go into the removal of the vegetation it introduces

cracks and you'll have water entering the fractures and weakening the slope it is termed scaling we're putting in lot bulks and there recent rock wells their thirty foot long and an application of two levels of wire mesh and then concrete as you can see the area of the work the coit tower on the left side you see lombard street right-of-way to the left is the rec and parked and the rhetoric is the yellow part below the building is lot 50 that's where dbi is participating on the project so the work is going on schedule and going fairly well, the contractor is removed the

vegetation and what we're finding the rock is substantially more fractures on the north side where lot 5 is and he quote the contractor is saying the south of lombard and north of lombard are two different projects there's more material that we need to remove to stabilize the hillside and because the 4i8 side is unstable if i can kind of look at the specks are actually contradiction workers that are reconcileers their tied off a rope and their 4 of them removing the rock on the hillside it is creating a situation to have to create a safe environment we're going coming to two things we get the

support if dbi we estimate there is 2 hundred and 69 thousand additional scale rock so additional rock that needs to be removed another 2 hundred and 50 thousand we're estimating 5 hundred and 18 for the works and we wanted to include this because of the team of the work so we have the contingency the basic costs we royals we need an additional 8 hundred thousand for this portion of the project that pretty much concludes our presentation. >> commissioners any questions. >> commissioner walker. >> yeah, it's pretty amazing i think quite frankly there was also another rock slide about 57

or 10 years ago. >> that's on the common building inspectors 70 years ago on telegraph hill on the broadway side actually this particular site i was in dbi in the same location this hill as also having problems for a long issue of rock slides in this area. >> and we're taking this out of our emergency fund is that where it's coming from. >> right you know some of the fund we need to use from our resource to do some of the work. >> i think it makes sense to do it i maple that's what our emergency fund it for . >> i think we need to do it in order to insure the workers

doing the work are safe. >> and i feel lucky we stopped work for the last rainstorm you know like i was when they stopped work i visited the site and see the fractures most of them coming down and the public i think is is appropriate to protect it on the private side. >> commissioner vice president mar. >> i think we talked about this project before i don't think there's a disagreement i'm worried about contributing for money to it every item we haven't talked about our budget i know is coming up for next year we have a lot of things we haven't or maybe we've lived for but under account for such as the last agenda item we've

talked about there may not be a future one the next agenda item is a seller it usually means late cost overrun i'm worried about our budget so and you know wanted to make sure that the city departments which i'm sure dbi is contributing to so that's my only concern about the budget. >> commissioner lee. >> could you talk about what happens after the shock creek supplied is this a permanent fix or what can we look forward to what do we have to do to insure it's safety. >> the idea to stabilize the hillside so the city doesn't have to go back and take care of this issue again every time is

rains director huey is correct the work started right after thanksgiving prior to the mid december storm on record as 13 inches of rain and the idea to stabilize the location of the wire mesh and going to leave the hillside in a good condition to benefit the hillside and neighbors at&t park the hillside and stop you know prevent potential hazard in terms of damage to live or propose. >> do we inspector that. >> we had another different locations we got 311 calls to go and spicket that. >> commiserates. >> i have a question how many areas of this around town are

there. >> this is unique so telegraph hill as we saw historically was a query so tenant of this there's oath one the department of public works is taking care of and dbi because of block safety lot 5 issue on this within one and commissioner vice president mar we're contributing significantly to this as a department. >> yeah, and florida i may close out i hear commissioner what you're saying about the money i'm conscious of spending money but the train left the station there is money set aside as commissioner walker talked about and we're going to have to go back and make sure we get the money this is very expensive process there's no machines to this is done by hand their clearing this and cleaning and grubbing to get it for the

tiebacks no means a cheap process i know you've interpreted you've got to remove a lot more material that's labor instiffen on the schedule if this money a authorized and founded what do that mean for your schedule. >> on the picture north on the right and south on the left the work from south to north and toward lot 5 the contractors are not held back because they're working on the rfp side but we want to bottom this up it's not going to add time to the project but needs to be done for safety and it's the right thing to do.

>> so adversities a total of 8 thousands that money you'll not be coming back. >> the other thing if there's money left over it comes back to the department of building inspection as well. >> so the funds go back into intrpg and that's managed so you feel comfortable on this number. >> okay. >> that's important to us two thank you for your presentation. >> we've got a great understanding this is not a voting item only an information to us. >> possible action. >> well, i don't think we can take action sorry that might be my fault the way it is put together i don't believe we can take action. >> john from the city attorney's office this general item came before you as part of

amending code there was legislation that went on to the board of supervisors to allow the depiction repair fund to address the costs associated with the private property owner who owns the availability lot and that particular property has inform value and so the way the code is set up the process you can use demolition repair fund monies in the cost of the repairs would be more 50 percent of the value of the proposed the idea is that dbi would recover those costs by putting a lien on the property this property has no value so we went to the process to amend the building code for this situation to allow that fund to be tapped to pay for what otherwise would be private responsibility and then collect whatever we can collect

from that private property owner likely will not be very much so that legislation has been approved to authorize whatever fund to abate the situation there was an earlier estimate of $1.8 million as dbi said the cost of the project that portion is associated with the private property because of the conditions of telegraph hill this is a more of an informational item to bring the commission up to speed on the cost increases but the approval has been given. >> okay. so we don't - sorry so we don't have to vote on this obviously we're supportive to dbi to completing the work but not a vote just a general

statement. >> thank you. >> thank you for letting us knows. >> commissioners you're moving ear head do you have a - >> i'm just curious that someone didn't have to say 8 hundred hundred thousand dollars doesn't have to be spent. >> we can if we like. >> that's why we're not voting but supportive of this money to be spent to rad if i and correct this area in this part of town we don't have to vote that's basically, what we're saying. >> would you like to vote on it. >> maybe you can say it in a way to articulate. >> i just find it curious. >> john from the city attorney's office the reason you took an action previously in the fall because the way the
