used mostly be churn. the area includes children creative new seem, ice skating and bowling center, child development center and public open space referred to as the childrens garden. the childrens garden has 100 thousand square feet of outdoor space including grassy areas, a learning garden, a child size labyrinth, a small circle and play circle and sand circle, a large outdoor amphitheater, and lots of playground equipment including a 25 foot tube slide. sf twavl, the city and web core construction which i'm going to refer to as the expansion team, have started construction on a large mu sconey expansion center project. your commission merer andums has

detailed information on the expansion project so i won't do that presentation today but representatives are here to answer questions you may have. as part of the larger mu sconey expansion project the city wishes to make modification tooz the childrens garden in order to create a new public [inaudible] correcting 3ered street to the childrens gaurtden. these modficaigdss will result in new permment improvements but buffer i go into the improvements i want to talk about community outreach. a while back the expansion team worked with garden stackholders and parent groups to design childrens garden, the new redesign. this original design included new balthroom jz community room located in the childrens garden but recent

design changes relocated the bathrooms and community room outside the childrens gaurd across the per seo in the ground floor of the new mu sconey center building. sevleral parent groups opposed the change due to the access issues and so the parents group met with representatives of the expansion team, occii, and [inaudible] at the end of june to work on a solution to this problem. as a result the expansion team redesigned access with the new stroler friendly path of travel through the childrens garden to the bathrooms and community room in the new mu sconey center building. the parents were happy with the solution and approvered the access dein zoo. the expajss team will continue to work parent group jz the community to finalize design changes. sorry, hang on just a

second. that order is a little off here. i dopet bow what is going on. there is a slide missing, i'm so sorry. let me talk about the new childrens improvements and what they'll include. the new taught lot, there is new tot lot for babies and toddlers with specialized tot friendly surface, age appropriate play quilt. a new tot lot has a metal gate and secure so little ones-you can't get in our out easily without the help of a parent and a new section of the learning garden. this tot lot will occupy a area improved with lawn and landscaping close to the ice

skating rink. a new expansion of the fot lot is expected to start in august of this year and be completed in a few months. also the new improvements include a redesign learning garden with larger specialized planning areas a sloped lawn amp theater with seat wall, new fenceic installed to separate the larger childrens uses from the mu sconey use. the new walk way will connect the childrens gaurd toon the alley or per seo from 3 street between howard and folsom and third street is on the right side of the map. you can see where posayo starts and also see where the new restrooms are in the corner-the left hand sorn-corner. construction of the new improvementicize expected to get underway in 2018 and

completion is scheduled for the same year. i have a few [inaudible] to show you of the new tot lot area and new learning garden area and ampa theater. the expansion team has requested long term access to the childrens garden through a permit to enter and ocii's consent tothe new childrens garden permanent improvements. ocii requires a approval for a permit that exceeds a year. the permit duration is until the long range property-the property is transferred under-to the city under ocii long range property management plan or december 31, 2018, which erfb comes first. this

was approved by the board in 2013 and under review by the state department of finance. construction on the mu sconey expansion project started in late 2015 and due to a very aggressive construction schedule the expansion team required access to the childrens garden in april of this year. to acamidate that construction schedule mgm as ocii's owners issued a short term permit to enter the childrens garden. the permit-mgm's permit grants access until the earlier of the final approval of the permit you are looking at today by the state department of finance or the end of november 2015. currently the expansion team financeed off and removed

the old learning garden and sun dial garden. here is a map that shows the 2 permit areas. you can see area 1 includes the learning garden with flexible lawn amp theater and section the new pusay o. area 2 includes the tot lot and a section of the learning garden as well. this map also shows the location of the new restrooms and community room. the city completed the environmental review including the permit improvements to the childrens garden. pursuant to the california environmental quality act or sequa it was that process was completed in august 2015 when the planning commission certified the final eir. based on the analysis contained in the final eir, the commission in its capacity of a

responsible agency under sequa will need to adopt environmental findings pursuant to sequa that the childrens garden permit is considered a implementing action through the construction of the maus sconey expansion project. next steps include, a approval of the childrens garden by the oversight board and department of finns review and approval which is required because the childrens garden is subject to transfer under ocii long range property management plan. since these slides were presented the oversite board meeting has been rescheduled to august 10 provide there'd there is quaurm that day. [inaudible] 5 days to request a review, if it doesn't request a review the oversight action is final in august. there is 45

day review period. dof indicated it doesn't plan to review the childrens garden permit. so in conclusion, staff recommends authorizing the childrens garden permit to enter with dpw, sf travel and web core and adopting environmental findings pursuant to sequa. now i would like to introduce [inaudible] with public works who will answer any questions on the project and also on the permit. >> my name is [inaudible] public works, project manager and here to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you. also here today is josh keen, he is representing the cities department of real estate mpt the city is the fuper property owners of the garden erusooed

demonstrates it in the paper today with our enforcement and those departments who don't work together so the department heads miss out on a critical situation. let's go back to the community and enchts i worked with over 20 years as a community activist, no lodge longer that, as a business man and communications of fact waelt. let's go down the lane of in the past to where we are now and these players involved with usual business here in san francisco. only ones i have anything good to say about is mgm with their good work in the western addition in the past. i look at other what i call violators. there is no mystery, all you do is check the history. i'm not up here to impress you but to impress on you, this is a new era

ladies and gentlemen. i don't have time for eras. we have department of public works in my community. some things they do don't work and it is a little gray area of would you say are they violations or doing what they want? you also have web core that built their building on eddy and fillmore which is into litigations right now with another company that is violating our community. come in our community and do whatever the hell they want. begging tom dick and harry to work. you is the tourist groups which our black organization had to send [inaudible] naomi kelly thetening to use our race to go against the city to talk about their lack of funding african

american blacks here. we have a circle that needs to be involved with community outreach and if you go to [inaudible] there needs to a mechanism and there will be a mechanism to study on how they go here on out because without a doubt these 3 here in my book of community are in total vilailgzs and it take mow mystery to look at the history but you do what you do because you do what you do and i'm doing what i do. keeping my eye on you. >> thank you. >> i have no further speaker cards >> public comment is closed. any questions by commissioners for staff? for the department of public works. >> how many children come regularly there? is there a list of how many kids come
