to make sure the commitments are seen through and very pleased at what luis presented to hurry up the projects. i think that is what we hear most is there a real need for the city to be more nimble and more responsive so we are glood glad to hear there is very data driven effort to make sure there is a comprehensive and strong way to make sure our streets are changing for the better and not just small changes but thinking about next generation of what our street design infrastructure can look like. so, i think here is the trying to figure out where the ta and commissions or board of supervisors can move the pieces forward and insureing [inaudible] are taken care of whether through legislation [inaudible] we appreciate your xhilt and the discussion here. thank you.
11:01 pm
>> thank you. >> hello again. cathsy dulukea from walk san francisco. i was reminded walk san francisco and bike coalition are partners in the safe routes program and another partner is the school district so the person in the school district can talk to had superintendent and make the link so we'll work on that. in termoffs the mayors executive director we are excite today see the commit. no time like the present. we really need this. we are thrilled to #150e see the seniors and folks with disabilities prioritized. we started vision zero coalition to focus on these issues with the trashes on [inaudible] we will work with the city on identifying these hot spots and coming up with improvement said. the part the directive we are really really interested in is sth high quality safety
11:02 pm
infrastructure. we want to see that happen in real life. now we are not seeing that and a good example is the eltaraval project which includes a pilot portion where boarding islands will not be included mpt . instead of that the city proposed painting some word on the travel lane that says, yield to pedestrians. that is not high quality infrastructure and won't keep people safe. that isn't in lie with the mayors directive so the city takes this directive seriously and builds robust projects that keep people safe. i always think my time is up when that happens, but it is not but i'm finished. j thank you. any oretd public comment? seeing none. public comment is closed. item 7. >> item 7, introduction of new items. >> none. any public comment

11:04 pm
>> for the record this is the september 14, 2016 treasure island development authority board meeting. item number one call to order. >> transcend pating, here. mazzola, here. dunlop, here. tran samaha, here. kalb kim, here. we do have a quorum >> the first item is to allow the public to make any comments they would like the for the commission. >> this is general public, and to allow numbers of the public to address the treasure island development authority board on matters within the subject matter jurisdiction of the authority board. they do not hear on today's agenda. numbers may adjust the board of to 3 min.
11:05 pm
>> i would like to remind the board that >> please announce your name >> i like to amount mind the board to request people to admit their names should you know my name on betty matthew but you're not supposed to ask. you're not supposed to make it a requirement. i've taken up for seconds just telling you that. the other thing i like to bring up there are two things-illegal land transfer to ti cd i understand authority complete and you can smirk on me all you want ms. pating but this stuff is very real. to bring up the allocations were the current agreement with the group use exam and putting that on your bill going up island
11:06 pm
when this board has ignored all of these state laws supposed to bring forward replacement homes from everyone who is displaced. i'm accustomed to this board ignoring all of the residents of the euro point the island except those who kowtow to your plan and who aren't for typing. to get something better on the side. would you bring this out transparently in front of the public i want to make i wanted on the record that you guys have approved stealing public lands and giving it away from your $50 million. 70 acres of san francisco owned land with 270° views of the date on which you plan to put primarily luxury housing. this board made me homeless. because the homes offered to me were either stairs that were tuesday to accommodate my disability were that were too small to accommodate my belongings.
11:07 pm
because i live for 11 years in a three bedroom-two bath units. i am now homeless because of this board. all of my belongings in storage. you people are all aware-every board member is all aware of the cost of living in san francisco. i live and work in vinton i made it abundantly clear when this process was going on. when i submitted questions and concerns to mr. beck i got zero response. he would take everything i said and have a phone conversation with the villages attorney and then have that attorney contact my attorney and attorney wasn't representing me on any of this. so, this is the treatment i received it i know you perfectly are well aware and i know ms. pating you're ignoring me. this is absolutely consistent with the attention that any euro point resident has got from this board. so, there will be consequences.
11:08 pm

11:18 pm
the end of january. that concludes my report. >> thank you mr. beck. any questions? >> yes, mr. beck, thank you for that impressive record. that report contained a lot of milestones and i have two basic questions and comments. with regards to the lead certification this is a big give. this is a big deal. so, may i suggest for the press release that we do not only just send a press release release that we need to target local national international markets could we get asked a lot about treasure island development and, as you know, this is one of dozens of signature projects in the world. everything we're doing here has implications or even development in san francisco and the bay area and the country. so, it significant
11:19 pm
given the work of this type of the consultants and the city and all the entities that make this happen. this commission to i think we need to do go beyond the call of duty to do that. so, we have ideas i would like to get to you. definitely, this would be just not a press release. because they press a lease goes out there and then nobody picks it up or wherever and the people are asking what is going on. one of the other things i also has to do with the caltrans westbound opening and we also need to make a notice another significant milestone. i know it was slated for september it is now in october. that is fine, but at some point, we need to be part of the outreach efforts. actually have it planned celebration on treasure island just something that we can
11:20 pm
invite all the significant stakeholders get so everyone is on the same page about what is going on on treasure island and we can carry them along to again sometimes they hear all the negative stuff so whatever but we are doing a great deal here even with our [inaudible] the treasure island homeless initiative. in their accomplishment also needs to be way out there in front of everybody. so people can just learn information we need to disseminate and again thank you for your great work on all these things. >> go-ahead >> bob, i also just want to note, yes, that was a busy month certainly, i'm glad to hear all the news. but i like to point out some things and have you perhaps repeat when they are occurring. the bike path and the vista point on
11:21 pm
the bay bridge is a significant accomplishment which a lot of people at work hard to get and the fact that you can now buy from the east they to treasure island is, i think the most significant. i am just hoping that we will mark that point and have some sort of celebration with our stakeholders the san francisco bicycle coalition per instance is very much actively involved in that advocacy and other stakeholders down there perhaps work with them so that we can celebrate this milestone. so that is one thing. the other is, the free market which is been on our island for some time now. it's moving to a new location and you did report on that, but what was the time for the next fleamarket? >> the next we market is the last week of each month. so it will be the 29th-i'm sorry-the 30th will be a friday. it will
11:22 pm
be the 24th and 25th of september the was 24th and 25th and that'll be at a new location b was yes >> where is that locations the one that the patient is on avenue or november at the southeast corner of the object i'm sorry the northeast corner of the location. near n and 11. >> just of the public knows. again the treasure island music festival which also has signet been in treasure island for some time that's happening on october 15 and 16th and will will that be located? >> that we on the southeast corner of gallant your pier one adobe some roadway closures avenue n and california as it approaches the site will be closed but while they do their setup and breakdown after the event. >> okay. i think it's absolutely wonderful that
11:23 pm
peter, from the department of the environment, they been working on the habitat management plan for some time. that they're going to be doing something with the academy of learning good it's a life learning academy which is for at-risk teens. that they're getting them involved in some of the environmental habitat work that is happening on the island. i think that should really be applauded. but those are my comments. >> thank you >> so, then the next item please >> any public comment? item number four, communications from and received by tida communications bismarck from the navy and sf puc. russell several residential advisory newsletters and media publications among others.
11:24 pm
>> any comments from the board? if not, i would like to point out in the communications that there were two articles in the chronicle by john kane. one was just a report on some of the thinking on the lucas using them, which has not yet been fully vetted. it will eventually be coming to this commission. the other has to do with a report that he did on sea level rise around the site from the bay area. one of the key sites of courses treasure island. we actually have a plan for c level rise that is one all sorts of awards. in fact, has become the model that the cdc uses for development along waterfront sites in the day. so, we should certainly commend the team that is been working with us on that. but that was reported in that chronicle
11:25 pm
article in the communications package. okay the next item >> item number five, ongoing business by board of directors. >> yes, commissioner richardson >> although this is not ongoing business, yesterday i had the privilege of attending an event in the bayview-hunters point. i also sit on the board of the bayview-hunters point multipurpose center. comcast has this program called internet essentials and the [inaudible] was there and helping to promote this and i would like for the staff and for tie-dyed, for michelle to explore the opportunities from comcast could they are giving out laptops to low income residents to seniors, and it's a very very impressive program.
11:26 pm
given treasure island the profile of the population there, i also understand the mayor was there. very excited. he's on board and promoting this. this program is to be rolled out to san francisco public housing. so i just want to put it out there there's all kinds of goodies out there that we might be able to take advantage of. again, comcast is giving out the brand-new laptops and providing this internet you sent chills to folks that we know that we care about on treasure island. thank you >> next item please >> item number six, consent agenda >>[reading ordinance] >> item 6-a proven the minutes
11:27 pm
of the autistic tent meeting. item 6b >>[reading ordinance] >> moved to approve >> all those in favor say, aye >>[chorus of ayes] opposed? the ayes have it. >> any public comment? item number seven resolution authorizing an amendment to the small business enterprise procedures treasure island your bubbling up island to update the procedure to include provision for association of agreements. >> i don't have a formal presentation on this item. but wanted to counter it as a regular item within a consent item in case any members of the board had questions on it. more than a year ago we adopted the small business enterprise procedures for ti cd to follow in conjunction with their contracting for both consultant and construction services. the
11:28 pm
proposed amendment would allow them to utilize associations between partners in addition to join ventures informing business partnerships between lead both lead contractors and lead consultants. the thought is, this would be utilized more on the professional services side of things then on the construction services side of things, but the association is a form of partnership but it doesn't involve creating a new legal entity as a joint venture partnership does. it just was believed to be a less burdensome way of allowing small businesses to partner with others to act in a prime role particularly as i mentioned on consultant services projects.
11:29 pm
ti cd brought this proposal to our attention after ocii adopted similar provisions in their small business enterprise procedures in the summer of 2015. so bring it to your for your consideration. >> are there any comments from the board? yes? >> so, who would okay the mergers? >> they would submit an association agreement just as they would normally submit a joint venture agreement to ti cd . in a conjunction with their bitter or proposal. >> so instead of a joint venture with there be a contractor or subcontractor kind of thing? the was he would've an association agreement, which is a partnership agreement. again, they're meant to be acting as co-prime as they would if they
11:30 pm
were forming a legal joint venture entity. so, it's a co-prime rather than a contractor or subcontract relationship. >> okay. so these are >> these are complement three type of trades were to working together and instead of individually making the applications they do it to gather as associates, basically? >> yes. typically it would be, yes, as you said complement three trades or disciplines. so, as we move forward with the next stage of consultant services for the second stage of development on the island, it would anticipated some of the consultant services, for example the civil engineering services rather than a large
11:31 pm
firm submitting as a prime or entering into a joint venture ship they would form an association partnership were that related disciplinary firm. so, they would likely be to civil engineering firms that won a major firm and one a small business that would form an association to act as the lead for the civil engineering work. >> you mentioned some other organizations last summer. >> i said ocii which is the opposite community infrastructure investment which is the former redevelopment agency. adopted similar provisions last two. >> we know that it's project based so were project and again it helps also to small farms. so, i think it's a great idea and i will i think it should be passed
11:32 pm
>> i think it certainly makes it easier for small businesses to be included to give them a chance at contracting opportunities. yes. >> some of >> before we take action can we hear from the public? any comments from the public? if not we've got a motion >> moved and seconded. the was all those in favor say, aye >>[chorus of ayes] opposed? the ayes have it. next item, please >> item number eight, as envisioned by sf public library on mobile outreach services. >> i have some handouts. would you like to have it now? >> yes, please >> anodes are on the pulp for the public on the table here.so
11:33 pm
thank you for having my name is suzanne beatty manager mobile outreach services. san francisco public library. i'm going to give you an overview what we been doing on the islands and future thoughts and plans for the as we move into the future with the development of treasure island. so, the department we have for book mobiles and poor service lines. three of them go to the island. we've got the tech mobile and children's services, with the early literacy mobile and the green bookmobile that is basically a mobile branch that goes twice a week to the island. the biweekly service has been around, i believe, per last 5-6 years were currently in our fourth location. in october, of 2015, we moved to actually
11:34 pm
come a couple years ago we moved to the chapel parking market that's where we are now. it's where the star is in this slide. we are there mondays and thursdays 10-1 pm on monday and thursdays-one-5 pm to honestly we have a lot of residents coming, teens, mothers with children. workers. people work on treasure island but leave at the end of the day. job court youth. young adults, and tourist spot in every once in a while, take seo book mobile sitting there on a party not in treasure onto dvds, multimedia items are a big draw as are the team materials. reserves. so come out in our department we don't usually participate in link lust which is a system where you can get reserves but also materials from other library systems. but for treasure island that's the one service we have where the
11:35 pm
residents can request books from other library systems. so, the tech mobile programs year we launched the tech mobile last april and on treasure island, we begin service at the after school program at the ymca in january. harrison streamed here are some screenshots of gives doing ipad animation encoding, and this is shauna sherman in the interior of the vehicle given a class. this fiscal year actually beginning on monday, were going to start coding classes at the wide twice a month. so, the first and third monday of every month we'll be out there. shauna will be doing a long-term coding course with the kids where they're learning how to use codes to great animation and games online. so the early literacy mobile goes out as well once a month. we go
11:36 pm
to the child development center and we been going there since 2009. eve bakker she is on the picture on the bottom left, she's doing a puppet storytime and she did report to me that out of the 30 some odd sites we go to, in san francisco, and treasure island, the teachers there are the most engaged and use her resources as a children's early child the moment at work and children's librarian the most out of all the other sites we go to. they consistently rotate 50 board books every month and that's the most out of the whole all of our sites. so the very robust and requesting materials that fit in with the things they're working on so that enhances their curriculum and the work they're doing with the kids. it's a very good partner there. so just deliver the
11:37 pm
feedback we've gotten in anecdotes that have gathered from my staff out there. in general, it's about being grateful and thankful that we are there as their elaborate cooking and of note, is one quotation from the director at the ymca. san francisco tech mobile has brought such a great expense to our youth. the ymca and our kids have again to explore the world of coding and is really sparked an interest in our youth. that's good to hear. that is nice. then i thought was interesting, too, about the dvds. sometimes people come in on their on thursday they know they're not really the island all we can and there like we have entertainment for the weekend. they get their dvds and books and they're ready to go. so future plans. a couple things get one thing as we've talked about this can be the demolition along that swath of land from the chapel parking lot up north and so we are
11:38 pm
going to be looking for a new location. i been working closely with peter somerville to target an optimal location. i did mention that were on her fourth location. what kind of costly trying to find high-traffic high visibility areas so that makes it worth were going out there and touch as many people as possible. right now were looking at the local new location for the island: it just because markets are usually places in other parts of the country were bookmobiles go. not just in san francisco with the parking issues and not a lot of parking lots to pull up in. but this could work out for temporary period sober exploring that. i'm also interested in kind of deepening our relationship with some bigger umbrellas community -gatekeepers i'm interested in looking at tie-dye a little bit and i know we've been there before but maybe there's a way we can hook in closer two
11:39 pm
programs are doing with were even like the food pantries can go on a date or super busy. we could be there and hit lots of different groups at the same target i love to hear from you if you have suggestions about places where groups are we can hook in with we can just get more bang for our buck in the time we are out there. also, looking forward to future plans, but interested in doing a little more outreach out there so maybe being back what i heard we used to do before i was the manager of the department kind of an annual celebration for library services that we would kind of trade some buzz and throw something little for people to come on board and maybe even participate in other 80 annual wide events that if you could make suggestions to me even off-line i'd appreciate that, too. so any questions from you? >> yes, thank you so much for that report. the library is
11:40 pm
such an incredible resource. to allow residents and it's great that you're taking that extra effort to go to treasure island. i think certainly, sherry williams and tight i is here and certainly you can have conversations with her about how to best utilize your services and where to take that technote mobile which is wonderful that you're providing coding and other workshops for teens and young adults. the y is a certainly another area of vocation a lot of services and also the health clinic. these are all places where services are given to treasure island residents and having the library resources there i think would also augment that. >> wonderful >> directors? any questions doing >> yes. thank you susan. this is a wonderful program and is
11:41 pm
very comforting that of all the sites you visited that the enthusiasm and everyone treasure island is coming out. it's one of the places that are utilizing this wonderful program. you mentioned about on mondays, you are there from 10-1 pm and i am wondering on the weekends if you get more traction if you could consider on the weekend because on the hours between the hours of 10-1 pm kids might be in school. so you are getting the later hours i know we will have to rethink your resources. it would be excellent. i think the best thing we can never do for the kids is open their world to meeting. it's the ultimate. there's no other thing we can do to motivate them. and for them to delve into learning and reading books is number one
11:42 pm
thing in the world. so can you rethink those hours. >> definitely >> try to provide him and then cheryl of tie-dye is the key. throughout the year she has all these programs that are taking place and i think a marriage between you and her, the more you are out there and i think the more the visibility the more were able to get to the kids. i mentioned earlier, that opportunities for laptops and you saw those pictures did at some point, we would like to borrow some of those pictures you showed us there. so we can actually because every now and then people want to know about the quality of life of the kids on the island and we have healthcare for them. we have all kinds, make sure their transportation we have internet we have i mean, now you have the bookmobile. it would be great to be able to put all those together when the supervisors or the stakeholders are asking about them so they get all that information did so think about the hours you extend that or change that when the kids are afterschool. it
11:43 pm
might be every helpful and also helping their homework. >> thank you. that is good feedback >> commissioner dunlop >> thank you for your work. is very crucial for everyone but a couple of basic questions. i've never seen a bookmobile in san francisco so i don't know what they look like actual. what is it what is the difference between eight i can the hours we currently have that that you may change given some of the changes you might do. are the bookmobile and the tech mobile there at the same time or are they >> at different times >> different times, okay. so, the bookmobile has books in it that people can just check out in the library and they go in there may pick out a book >> books, dvds audio books >> got it. on the mobiles what they get the was exactly but like i said they can place
11:44 pm
holds, request materials that will then be brought the next time he was the next time you go out there that book will be available to them load out to them >> exactly >> wonderful. the other question is, do you send e-mails to the population at treasure island? how do they-besides i guess certain locations with a already know to go, but how do new people on the island find out about the bookmobile? >> good question do we work closely with peter so we let him know what were doing. we put signs up. that's part of the outreach that i want to do this. like the launch of having more concrete marketings so that's a good question. because that speaks basically is what were doing a >> it seems to be we probably have a mechanism for outreach
11:45 pm
to the island to tie-dye and the ymca. you know these are all good agencies that already have a way to reach the population at treasure island. so that would be good to connect with them and do a mutual outreach. to the residence >> yes >> this is for kids and adults? >> exactly >> great. okay, thank you >> thank you so much. this is an informational items of those though action required. thank you very much for your report. >> any public comment? >> there's a second part to the presentation. catherine cormier was also going to speak on this item. >> i'm kathy cormier without [inaudible] new teen center. at the main library where work
11:46 pm
with 13-18 we also in agreement with job court that some other students when they come to the mainland greek elected to come on a bus tour we do love to come on wednesday nights to take him to the services even the ones were of 2/8 24 were part of the job court program. i do have some handouts for you and more over here. but, one thing to note i understand that a lot of the services on treasure island are close on saturday so currently the mix is open to tuesday-saturday. we are open to any teens ages 13-18 were in high school want to come to use the mexican is located at the main lab report is one year old get like a toddler at this point in a happy to say that one of our most loyal patrons is a student at life learning academy. is our ambassador and i figure presented it too late to you to show this part of his presentation but you can go to our website and check out the [inaudible] some of the youth produced audiovideo get a lot of what you been talking about these resources but the other
11:47 pm
resources available at the library completely free to all the patrons. so am happy to answer any questions you might have. >> thank you so much. the library is such a wonderful resource and it's really heartening to hear you're targeting teenagers and particularly giving them the skills in an area with avid interest which is audio and video and all those different media that is not so current and to give them that access. so, really thank you for your efforts. we appreciate it >> thank you the was thank you, too. the same hours that same question so that we can maximize this program. >> yes good one thing i can add is that we have been approved by the board of supervisors to add additional library and get why were
11:48 pm
