the lowest price point and win this award. >> it opens up a door for protests to have more legs on them than just a raw low bid. >> i am not certain that is the case. in professional services we don't do price only. it is qualifications. price is either a factor or not a factor opened at the end and you negotiate on price. we have protests but a very well understood ability to base contests on other qualifications than price. >> general counsel. one you have the requirements for doing the best value is set forth in the administrative code. how it is scored that sets forth the process. those agencies throughout the city and enterprises have
5:01 am
undertaken this scoring method. we are confident yo you are not facing new challenges using this as your criteria. >> thank you. okay. erica, thank you so much. commissioner adams. >> i am in favor. i wanted to make sure we were on the same page. i heard a lot of different things. i support it. thank you for the presentation. what i wanted to understand what commissioner makras was saying. are there other options? for your benefit and benefits to
5:02 am
the community. >> yes, there are potentially. there are other options. this is one. we have used the low bid for a very long time except for the cruise ship terminal. it was not a price competition. we have been talking in earnest with the dpw about ways to have more social impacts through contracting. we have consistently heard best valubestval is a good tool to -- best value is a good tool to try. some contracts have been too small and some too big. this is slightly lower than recommended. it is close. we want to tries this. it is recommended to us. it is a great conversation.
5:03 am
i am grad it is on the calendar. when we come back we can look at how it worked and before it comes to award. we are as curious as you are. for us this is the first time. >> any other comments? i'm sorry. public comment is closed. erica, thank you so much for this presentation. i think it is great that we are trying the best value approach. i think it is great we will be able to ask about the safety record and project history and experience so we don't just get the lowsist bidder. we don't know how many times they come back for an amendment. this will save us money in add
5:04 am
advance, i hope. i want to understand the bid alternate. what is the base bid? what are we put anything the alternate? >> the construction estimate $3.9 million, 4.3 with the 10% contingency. the bid package an option for the restrooms and at the time we were looking for way to save money, the project is lure kind of value engineered a lot. you can't take out the roof and foundations. the rest rooms we saw as one of the only options at the time. that is a backup if things go wrong. >> i personally don't see spending $4 million without a restroom. >> if i can add a different
5:05 am
component. you are adding a higher cost later. at mi minimum i would do the infrastructure for the bathrooms. we are putting in concrete floors and the grading and a slab and later go cut it and find the main line for the sewer pipe and bust up what we built. put in th the infrastructure ano the physical part of the bathroom from the floor up. >> i would not support spending $4 million on a shell. >> understood. we are trying to scope it in a way to save the project if it is higher. that is the bidding climate. we want the rest room included. it is a deductedtive alternate
5:06 am
so we understand the pricing. in the long-term we are looking for a partner to run a cafe. there is an opportunity for ti down the road. we are pushing to get a restroom in the facility. we hope to come to you with an award to do so. >> our $3.9 million estimate will tell us how up for the bathrooms. >> that 3.9including the rest rooms. they are about $750,000. >> $745,000 is underground. it is the pipes underground. >> any other comments? all in favor. resolution 18612 has been
5:07 am
approved. >> item 9 new business. you would like to see gordon ball back in six months to give a contractor's router. when we do the he wall project we are looking at the funding sources and the gap. any other new business. >> six months for gordon ball, six months from when they start. >> i would like to have the master tenant for pier 70 if they can come back to do informational to us. >> we will have them come in. >> one other thing, commissioner woo ho was talking about the rfi responses. she wanted more of a dialogue on that. >> we will get you a calendar of the plan. >> on the pier 70 if you can
5:08 am
send me the lease so i can review it on the same subject matter. >> sure. >> it is a good idea for an update on the project and where they are ozi. >> i can't help but support what the neighbors are saying. the board of supervisors says no smoking and they are telling people if they can't smoke all over town. >> we will put it on the agenda. you. >> any other new business? can i have a motion to adjourn. >> motion to adjourn. meeting adjourned.
5:10 am
>> hello, all.ned. thank you for coming today. it's great to be here at the ymca gym and it's always my favorite meeting to be on island. we're glad to be here. we'll start the meeting now. >> clerk: for the record, november 14, treasure island development authority board special meeting. item 1, call to order. [roll call] we have a quorum. >> president tsen: thank you. before we go to the next item, i
5:11 am
would just like to give a big thank you to mercy restaurant, who fed us so well today. thank you. thank you. and then i would also like to call up mike buttell. stand up, mike. mike, he got the award -- the special community award from the san francisco-marin food bank. [applause] mike is a veteran. he lives on treasure island. he has for a long time coordinated the food bank on treasure island. he was once homeless but now he is part of our community here at treasure island doing good work. thank you, mike, for being here.
5:12 am
[applause] and then -- and then this is something that we rarely do and i want to do it today. one treasure island at the annual fundraiser in october gave an award to bob beck, our executive director. bob, we so much appreciate you and i want to note that we appreciate all that you do for us. so lets give bob beck a hand. [applause] okay. so now we will open it up to general public comment for items which are not on the agenda. if there is anybody who wants to address the board, you can do that now. i'm sorry, you can make that announcement. >> clerk: item number 2, general public comment. this item is to allow members of the public to address the treasure island development authority board on matters
5:13 am
within the jurisdiction of the authority board and don't appear on the agenda. in addition to general public comment, it will be held on each item of the agenda. members can address the board up to 3 minutes. you will hear a chime when the time is up. please state your name and organization you are representing, if any, for the record. >> president tsen: okay. if there is anybody that wants to address the board, do it now and please state your name. >> hello, everybody. i'm carol harvey. i have spent a lot of time on the island. i'm a reporter and i report on events on the island. i don't know if you're aware -- remember keith foreman, who headed -- was the environmental coordinator for the navy for a long time?
5:14 am
he used to do these tours of the island to update people on the cleanup and every time he passed the fat grape -- and i attended those two or three years running -- which was the navy brig, he proudly pointed out that that navy brig -- there was a winery in there, because the walls are like a foot thick and it was a perfect place for a winery. i got a kick out of that, because he was so proud of it. he pointed it out. recently pat bowen, the vintner for fat grape, left the island. he could thought afford to stay on the island because the rents went up and that's happening to a lot of businesspeople here. and pat is very concerned because that entire navy brig is a foot thick of styrofoam, compressed styrofoam, as
5:15 am
air-conditioning. that was done back in the day. and on the outside of it, pat described this to me, is a shell made of something called dryvit. and pat was very concerned because he found birds on the roof that were -- he's got energy -- building their nests out of the styrofoam. and he was worried about this, and i wanted to talk to the tida board about the fact that, when you demolish that building, it should be tented. otherwise, all that styrofoam will spread all over the island, san francisco, the bay. it's going to affect the fish. it will affect the birds. birds build nests with it. i was out there videoing and i videoed the pellets on the staircase, where birds were using it to build their nest there already. so two years ago, san francisco made styrofoam illegal.
5:16 am
the city of san francisco outlawed it. it cannot be used as pellets in packing cases. so i'm kind of doing this for pat. he wants that building to be tented during the demolition so this styrofoam doesn't go all over the bay. and that's -- that's pretty much it. so i think tida will demolish the building. i don't think the navy will do it. maybe provisions can be made to put a tent over that thing. thank you. >> president tsen: thank you, carol. all right. is there anybody else? okay. hearing none, next item, please? >> clerk: item 3, report by treasure island director. >> thank you, directors, members of the community. i also wanted to acknowledge
5:17 am
mike bartell's recognition that he received from the sf-marin food bank and invite sherry williams to come up and say a few words about the food bank on the island as well as some projects that they have planned coming up. >> good evening, commissioners. thanks for being here this evening. sherry williams with one treasure island. and i'm just very proud to also acknowledge the work of mike bartell. he brings a joy and an enthusiasm and loving spirit to the weekly food pantry and i think anybody here that's been at the pantry can attest to that spirit and he cares about this community and we have just been so grateful for him to be a volunteer here. he's volunteered tirelessly almost since he moved to the
5:18 am
island, which i believe is over two years now. and then he became the first employee of the restaurant and became an ambassador, with a card to prove it. i wanted to share in the acknowledgement of mike bartell and his incredible community spiritness. thank you. [applause] do you want to say something? are you sure? [laughter] tuesdays between 12:00 and 5:00, you can find mike at the food pantry. the other quick announcements i had was that we are creating what we're calling the gathering garden next to the ship shape community center. it's an outdoor space that the community can use to sit and relax, have lunch, take a break after they get their groceries from the food pantry or beforehand or have small gatherings, small meetings.
5:19 am
we've been fortunate to have pro bono owe assistance by david baker architects. if folks have a chance, look at the boards, because they come up with a beautiful design. there will be opportunities for people to volunteer to help us with the planning and then rolling out a community garden aspect to it in the spring next year, so if anybody's interests, contact us at one treasure island and we'd love to have you be a part of it. we will be graduating a new class for pilot training program with united site services. a sanitation training program. we have seven graduates graduating from the program next week. it trains them to get a class b license and folks afterwards will be hired by united site services. they will start between $18 and $25 an hour and we're excited about the partnership we have with them. i think that's -- you will talk about the mural coming up this
5:20 am
saturday, but i do want to say, just as -- there is -- the mural that we're doing with tida and preceda eyes. if you haven't had a chance, look at the mural. it will be on the outside of the gym. it will be -- it will be starting at 11:00 on saturday. we invite the community to come and be part of this. the design was part of what the community said they were interested in and what was important to them in terms of living on treasure island. if you are going to come and you want to eat, let cheryl know. just to make sure we have enough food. we're trying to get it done before the rains come. we hope that everybody can come out and finish it all together. that's all i got. >> president tsen: that's great. thank you. >> thank you, sherry. this saturday, 11:00 to 3:00,
5:21 am
there's a work day for the mural. if you -- on your way out tonight, if you go out the back, the north wall of the gymnasium, that's where it's proposed to -- where it will be going up. and they've started to rough out the outline for the mural on the wall there. there will be a second work day for the mural. i don't anticipate getting it completed this weekend. the date for the second day has not been set. we'll get information out to residents when it is scheduled, for those that can't make it this weekend or make it this weekend and want to come back on another weekend. last april, we also did a survey of improvements that people might want to see in the residential neighborhood and i want to say a few words about the first project that we're going to do that's following that, which is to do some improvements at this park near
5:22 am
gateview and exposition. there are some existing picnic tables there that are not in good repair that we'll be replacing with new picnic tables and adding some barbecue pits like the barbecue pits over at 9th and b. and then also, we want to do some community, pilot a community garden project, on the area where the sand pit is in that area. so we'll be working with a partner to construct a raised planting bed and look for volunteers as we move forward with that project. we're going it treasure island community garden and gathering space.
5:23 am
we identified a partner to work with us. i would like to invite beck howell to come up and say a few words about the organization and their programs. >> hi, good evening. thanks for joining us here today. i'm with indigenous perma-culture. our director is here. thank you for having us and inviting us. a little bit of our background. we've been an organization since 2002. and we focus on urban farms and gardens. we do environmental leadership programs. we've done things like tree plantings and we administered a used motor oil contract. different things, all environmentally related the best focus is on urban farming and gardening. and we have done many projects
5:24 am
in the bay area and on pine ridge reservation and central america. and currently we have a really good project in fruitvale in oakland. that's what the photos are of. it's a good example of some of the work that we do. there's a church there that had a really large parking lot and they wanted to convert half of it to community farm and garden and so we started by building on top of the asphalt some really great raised beds and rows of -- for gardening. and we've been doing that for a couple of years at that site. and some of the features that we incorporate into our work there are environmental trainings for the community to come and learn
5:25 am
to be more self-sufficient with food and be able to grow things themselves, which is awesome, because it can cut down on the monthly costs for food. we teach about traditional foods and getting more in touch with foods that are healthy for you, creating your own healthy diet. so it's around self-empowerment, education, affordability, and using the land that you have at your access, too. we also have been able to create -- or grow food for the food pantry that convenes near our church there. and there's about 250 people that come every other week that can get fresh fruit and vegetable from us that we've grown seasonally. so we're really excited about working at treasure island.
5:26 am
we have an educational bus that we park here and that's how we first made the connection to the island, as, you know, it would be a really great site to do farming and gardening. so that's the background. and if you have any questions, it would be great to hear them. >> president tsen: i just wanted to welcome you to treasure island. it's wonderful the work you do. >> thank you. >> president tsen: in fact, the future, the 500 acres of treasure island, 300 of the 500 acres will remain in parks and open space and we also have plans for urban agriculture. so i hope that you will be with us in the future as we go forward with that plan. but i'm glad that you are here to start a program here and hopefully you will be
5:27 am
successful. >> thank you. >> president tsen: any other comments? thank you very much. thank you. >> and it's -- community garden has been something that there's been interest expressed in on the island for a while. depending on the success of this, we can develop additional spaces in the residential area. we also are planning to do work on the area at westside and gateview, to try to improve the lawn in that area and add some picnic tables and barbecue pits there as well. i would also like to thank the ymca for hosting us tonight and invite the ymca's new director to say a few words and i think she will introduce some of their new staff here as well.
5:28 am
>> hi. i'm shianta lewis, director of treasure island and youth programs here. hello to the board and the community. i was asked to provide a brief update of some things that have changed. we went through some transitions last year when we lost our previous director and i knew we had some big shoes to fill. able to step in and build in all the work that we're doing on treasure island. our gym was open just to work out as well as camp programs in the summertime. we've received additional funding and we pair it with the efforts of the funding from tida to extend our hours at the gym.
5:29 am
with the hours being open seven days a week, we currently have new programs operating. we offer youth sports programs twice throughout the week and on saturday and sunday for up to four hours on the weekends. we go 2:00 to 6:30 and extended evening programs. we offer hours for the youth 10:00 to 4:00 engaging in sports programs. we have hip-hop classes. we also have a swimming program, where youth can get acclimated and then we'll build on community engagement by offering once a month community events, as well as incorporating more afterschool programming. we have a bunch of new programs and information right over here on the black table and then
5:30 am
myself and my team, who is back here in the back, are here monday-sunday and we're happy to be here and we want to hear from you. so if there is anything that you want to see happen or continue to happen, check us out. >> president tsen: welcome. so you are the new director of programs? >> yes. >> president tsen: thank you for having us. having the meeting here shows the facility and thank you for all you are doing and the youth programs. >> happy to be here. thank you. >> i also wanted to invite travis lund. he was going to give an update for the end-of-season report.
5:31 am
>> thank you. chairperson tsen, board, director beck, thank you for having us here. we appreciate the support that you have shown the treasure island sailing center. i'm going into my fifth year here at the center. i'm returning from a full board meeting and the directors wanted to send their thanks and gratitude as well. like bob said, i'm here to give you a snapshot of our successes in 2018. we served 2,200 youth. 80% of the youth came here for free. the summer camp had a total of 800 kids. and some came in individually and some came from one of our partner groups.
5:32 am
we received a grant worth over $965,000 over five years to support our summer camp, which was underfunded. our s.t.e.m. programs, which will be going into our fifth year, a one-day, blended, s.t.e.m. and sailing program, continues to serve 48 public schools, san francisco public school fourth graders, with support from the saint francis foundation. we've served 6,700 children and most come from title 1 schools. we also secured a grant from no noaa. that program will provide curriculum focused on pollution
5:33 am
in the san francisco bay walter -- watershed. in 2014, the number of adults soared from 33 in 2014 to 456 this year. question utilize 200 volunteers, who provide about 1,000 hours of volunteer time. specific to treasure island, we've partnered with the life-learning academy to bring 13 students and provide 94 hours. we've also received interns and provided 210 hours of work experience for those students. we're hoping to funnel kids from swimming programs to sailing programs, as most underserved kids, don't have the ability to swim, which is a barrier to entering sailing. also specific to treasure island, we had four children
5:34 am
from employees who work on the island. and we also had 11 students that work on the island. my program manager and i are taking advantage of the city services and we're in the university provided intensive, tailored, specific training from a program atic and financial standpoint we're working with the board to finalize our lease and looking with great anticipation and excitement toward the future. thank you so much for your support. i appreciate you allowing me to speak. i've also brought a copy of our 2017 annual report for you to of a and enjoy. >> president tsen: you can give it to kate. travis, thank you for the
5:35 am
report. we're so proud of the sailing center that it started here and it's grown. in fact, it really boomed. and it's heartening to hear that you are working with so many kids here. thank you so much. >> next month, we're going to have a circus coming to the island. circus bella will set up on the great lawn. i would like to innovate abigail munn to come up and say a few words about their programs. >> hi. how are you? so my name is -- i'm so honored that you invited me to come here today and we're honored to be on treasure island. my name is abigail munn and i'm the executive director of circus
5:36 am
bella. for the last 10 years, we've been doing free shows in parks and open spaces throughout the bay area. and we have this crazy idea that it was time to expand into a tent. we had a small grant to cover start-up costs and we were looking for a location. we were set up with a wonderful restaurant and so we are going to be setting up a big top circus tent on treasure island on the lawn for six weeks. and we'll be running shows for 6 weeks starting november 30 through -- very soon. come on down.
5:37 am
the tent will go up. exciting to see a tent go up. we will run from january 6. so circus bella, we've always had a commitment to the community. so we didn't want to just come in and say, oh, we're here. in thinking about it, we wanted to be sure that residents and businesses on the island could come see the circus. we're opening up the preview show. it will be free to any resident. come. show up. you don't need a ticket. you can come and see the show. also offering 50% off any tickets to treasure island residents and 30% off for
5:38 am
businesses. we have been distributing newsletters to the residents. i have postcards with coupons. you can grab one. the show is completely family friendly. we have a live band. mostly local artists and a few coming in. we hope it becomes annual. we're so excited. >> president tsen: so excited that the circus is coming to treasure island. grab your children and your grandchildren and your loved ones. and come to the circus for the holiday period of time. >> thank you so much.
5:39 am
>> i also wanted to invite walt bolisky to come up and say a few words. >> president and directors, thanks for having us here. what i want to talk about tonight are two special events that we're having next friday. on february 2, you have a flyer. there will be an afternoon-long celebration of the 80th anniversary of the golden gate exposition. with the mechanics institute, the library in the city in
5:40 am
april. so we will celebrate the 80th. in february, we will present another important program. at port chicago on the shores, 1,400 laborers worked to load explosives on ships. the navy was segregated. these enlisted men were black. they were commanded by white officers that pressured them to load faster and place side bets on whose squad could load more. it was an accident waiting to happen. on july 17, 1944, there was a massive explosion. it was felt in san francisco and measured 3.4 on the richter scale. 320 people were killed. mostly black sailors the white officers were given
5:41 am
one-month survivor's lead. the black men were not. they were put to work cleaning up the rubble and the body parts the navy ordered the survivors to return to workloading ammunition. several hundred refused the order. 50 holdouts were put on trial for mutiny. they sent out attorneys, a young man named thurgood marshall. they were convicted and received long sentences, but the publicity shown a spotlight on the racism in the navy and was a major factor leading to the desegregation of the navy 16 months later, 2 years earlier than the other armed services. history is best told in the place it happened the trial happened on naval station treasure island. february 9, there will be a
5:42 am
lecture on the port chicago story and symposium on significance and relevance to issues of today. we the national historic site, park service, san francisco public library, faculty from the university of san francisco, and the friends of port chicago. we brought together the folks from the national historic site and they are partnering to mountain exhibition, opening january 26, through at least february. and later in the year, the exhibition will move to the african-american center in the main library and possibly other sites. we're excited to be bringing this -- these events and this heritage to the attention of san francisco community and letting folks know that it's part of san francisco's history. it will be an expensive event.
5:43 am
we will need to seek some sponsorships and any introductions or suggestions that you can help us with would be appreciated. we thank your board for making this available and the support you've given us through the years. thanks very much. >> president tsen: thank you, walt. >> i wanted to make some commen comments. thank you so much for -- i got you a memo, an email from you about a couple of days ago. and i was really impressed. let me make for the record, i'm looking at the audience, and we have some new faces. one of the jewels when we come to treasure island, we try to showcase and people will respect
5:44 am
and admire the work we're doing here. we're driving to carry everyone along. that's why we're saying that the ymca, the termaculture, a whole array of people we bring along and job training. from the time i can remember, how many times you know we're great support. this event, being an african-american and looking at history, and someone who is involved in san francisco. it has city implications. and so in your memo, directly, you mentioned that this commission and us, everyone, is very supportive
5:45 am
the proper protocol really, kind of take issue today. we support our staff. this event has gotten the treasure island commissioners involved. i know for such an event like this, who is very active in the african-american community, there are things that i know the city would like to do because this is san francisco. it's not you only that will be doing anything on this event. and the fact that you are doing that on the black history month, i think is noble. the things being done, i know for sure, with the communities that we have with all the communities, they're getting involved in things like that. the staff, the outreach, and the
5:46 am
protocol to converse so there can be directions. i was at the gala and the word has gotten out and a lot of people are interested in this. all i told them is we'll go back convey to the community of how we can get involved with that. that said, i think we need to get together. i've written down some things that i would like to have for the staff, to be instructive, so we make this historic event what it is and implications in san francisco. some of the agencies that we can really get involved and even there are some city agencies that we've heard about that we may be able to pool resources to
5:47 am
make this a notable event. we also have an african-american woman who is mayor of this city. she, herself, is part of the celebration of black history month. it's a big deal and i know she's looking to the commission for guidance. the city of san francisco has played a role in this matter in collaboration with the museum and i just kind of wanted to make that statement. lets get together with the staff and go about doing this. thank you for the note to me. and, you know, it preceded our staff recommendation to the
5:48 am
commission and saw those as well. thank you. >> thank you, director. this is a work in progress and all the advice and input we can get will be greatly appreciated. >> president tsen: yes. >> thank you for being here. and thank you for the historical society that there is so much history that's involved in this island. it really is amazing. it's amazing that people that live in san francisco don't think we live in san francisco, but we do. it's a great place i'm proud of it, as i'm sure all the residence are. what kind of funding do you get for doing something special for
5:49 am
this? >> well, we're trying to get going. we're largely funded by the board. and we have some individual donations and $50,000 and a grant from the historic preservation fund of which about $12,000 goes to the lecture series, which is not just this event. it's the whole lecture series. so basically, we're operating on a shoestring so far. so you will be part of the treasure island family and this is not probably the appropriate time to take it up, but perhaps the staff and certainly as director richardson suggested that we should talk about some funding issues and some holes that need to be fixed and yours, i believe, would be one of them.
5:50 am
i don't want to be out of order here. so i will just put that out and put it to our staff. >> thank you. >> president tsen: any other comments? >> as everyone is aware, we've been having challenging air quality the last week, as a result of the camp fire in northern california. for folks looking for updated information, the city department of emergency management maintains the city's emergency preparedness website, sf72.org. and it's set up as a clearinghouse for information on air quality. and if you are getting the current air quality conditions, there are links there that you can use to see what the upcoming or current advisories are.
5:51 am
in terms of updates from the last month, we had treasure island residential cleanup day on saturday, october 20. thanks going out to treasure island housing partners and goodwill for organizing the event. a total of 10 30-yard debris boxes were collected, with a weight of 25.27 tons of materials from residents on the island. more than half of that, 58%, was diverted into recycling programs, which is -- last year, we didn't quite reach the 50% mark. despite collecting five tons more material than last year, we were able to substantially
5:52 am
increase the amount cree cycled and diverted from landfill. also last month, the event was very well attended, spider-man, penny from "it" were popular. last sunday, we had a walter -- water line from y.b.i. air relief valve malfunctioned and water was shut down and they had to replace that valve. on december 6, the public library's tech mobile will be partnering with s.f.
5:53 am
astronomers' association to host an event here on the island, a star-gazing party from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., weather permitting, which is at avenue h and 11th street, the regular location where the tech mobile visits each week. also on november 20, southern station will be holding a community meeting in building up next tuesday. on the construction front, extensive work is under way on yerba buena to realign mccalla road. hoping to be able to coordinate with the schedule on residential development. on treasure island, treasure island community development, will make temporary improvements to clipper cove in anticipation
5:54 am
