have individuals are terminations make a motion to look at this broadly and a few slides for you and looking at specifically at vacancies and sort of our properties performance across the types of soekts on the one side go through shed industrial storage and then this board category we have called master properties land sub merited lane and as you can see sort of the relevant size and those types of the largest is 50 million square feet and envision of parking and open land and ground leases where we have master in place with a low vacancy and we have the next largest category of outside the shed stoirj our pier storage locations and our pier shed has a highway vacancy rate

and don't lease a lot of office but not a great vacciney rate have the broke down by portfolio we have the 2023 date when we come back to you for the perimeter lease in may have that data i don't have that at hand today but i can tell you at fisherman's wharf we have this coming and expect that vacancy rate to follow up that is is metrics as we go through time and the vacancy rate didn't look too bad we continue to have - and the storage in the pier sheds that is one thing i need to go through a couple of metrics to give you you a sense. and so i want to grow through north to south and point out some locations where you're property owners are trying to

lease and running into trouble for one reason or another and the slides you'll see colored stars with the type of uses and where we have locations we could invite tenants. the green stars count indicate the retail restaurants and pier three and one-half by the cities needed list and have those vacancies 1 on jefferson street and 2 three 5 and round house where leases come up in roundhouse in the calendar year and storage at shed space at pier three three and quite a bit at pier 19 and variation location because of their cap we think of the name and code issues and other problems with the properties we had people potential tenants come forward but not being able

to lease it for for whatever reason those include the sort of previous office space on jefferson street would be converted to retail and pier three 5 and as structural issues and pier 29 largely vacant having enormous people talking to us but colombia issues and having to extend that in the coming months and this story about sustain i think that is nice to look at each side with a little bit of detail on the next slow down the centralized waterfront at the coconut some of the vacancies in this location. we have east building right behind us market by - we entered into a contract and office spice at a.d. building and storage shed as pier 26 and 28 and pier 50 and have capital

issues with the leasing in pier 26 and 28 those capital issues leaks and some issues with restrooms not working restrooms at the location and pier 54 we're local government what is next but those are all spaces available and few walk down the waterfront might see that lease oftentimes running into a maintains problem with birds through our signal engineering department and the last section we want to go through a number of location that are available for example, we do moss month to month leasing and pier 80 a bit of office space and space another 51 chavez and the land

and buildings the buildings out there many of them them very incredible and lots of ways but again a lot of preferred maintenance with difficulty in leasing and with the capital issues in some of the buildings. where we are really getting oversee activated and we're trying to have a cure as we get to them through the capital programs. >> we have building signage we do every couple of months update the vacancies and have a leasing form offender our website we receive e-mails and folks are interested in the property we get love referrals and other cities agencies from the departments like small business commission and o e w d rented

the space through a children and families and we have that board of health and now have other tool we entered the contract with the broker in january and been marking this i'll give an update on the next slow down and those are leasing efforts and limited but they have been enough to keep if you seen the latest leasing report we continue to go up and lease 90 leases lo last month so activities and can be a lot more and great property. so those are the permit constraints are are really have a limited marketing and one hundred plus jerald facilities with capital improvement needs we are able to keep into the a lot of ingenuity and staffing with the department

and on their on behalf so improvements we see that happening in the future and continue to try to use our facilities to the greatist extent and a location for a makeover quite a few times quite a few a few of locations for non-development kind of leases how we have done in the past and quickly more efficiently not to not have a deadline northbound come forward and have a way to control things forward and as we clear on the goals for each site so coming to figure out how to do this in an efficient way and have the perimeter and we'll come in may and may, june time

period have that moment to look at the leasing and see what is working and see what other incentives for tonsils to help with us activation and the other main thing as we trying to backfill four of vacancies in realtime and the senior property owner will be existed to hand off their responsibilities to the tenants to be freed up to do some of the more league of cities' and activation sort of fulfilling the dreams of waterfront plan like implementing wasn't we want for the facility that is is most fun part of their jobs we are looking forward to have more all hands on deck to turn their attention to the future rather than responding with the day to day difficulties of weather and what have you those are the efforts we are moving in terms of of getting on the for the and

leasing and renewing the property rather than trying to get people into compliance with their sort of things that covid 19 tail they're focused on so leave but that and in your minds we we go forward with the information and action items more formally in may and june thank you, commissioners. >> thank you rebecca. >> i want you to those for your report and see in the public school as we work through the portfolio you are getting that for the public to understand with wearing facing and thank you, rebecca can and team for the information. that concludes my report. . thank you. >> elaine and i will open up for public comment any public comment in the room? >> okay. >> corey any public comment on this item.

the restaurant we have to lease and so much i mentioned to the pelosi and an earthquake that morning and i was telling her a matter of time for a lot of water and some floods coming our way i guess what i'm curious how we're working on fixing those older spaces when we know that is pretty dated i guess i want to know in the future i know the previous lease they're responsible to fix underneath they're building but to be competitive how do we integrate those as part of the lease they don't get scared withdrawing oh, my god have to fix those buildings but take a fair share

of that and buried and the next person will have that all of a sudden costs to fix underneath the pier i'm glad we're making progress and glad to do shed space on the southern side i like to get up and talk with the nonprofits that are sharing spaces some of the sheds we're not using or fixing and they can raise money to do that or share they don't need though misquotes but they're might be 6 or 7 nonprofit i know there is would think in the mission and japan town and lease that rather than having that empty and not used the 23479 can try to raise money and share that so, anyway moving forward i think we're in the right direction and could a lot of work and the other thing is when i got you find out in

washington that the u.s. chamber they're saying we're not comfortable again until 2025 with the economic recovery i have a feeling we're to be adjusting for another year keep in mind and with the leases we have at the be creative so thank you and director and the relevant of staff for the tour of the port. >> thank you. >> vice president adams. >> i want to say a great report. and i agree with commissioner lee i called this we're going through a - i call this is the rebirth of san francisco and we're going through a change in the city. and it will look different than that looked post covid 19 that's okay change is good. but that's the only way we grow i see this

as event to hear the offshore wind part of how the future is going to lock and good to see you and your team raise the focus of where we have to do a a port and how we're going to change and make adjustments. i'm a glad to know we're worried the salmon and the crabs i'm glad to see we have comments and hydrogen and shouch but once again san francisco is on the cutting-edge and i was proud to show them we have the original affirmation on the water across the country once again san francisco we're leading the way and becca thank you for this elegant report on the vacancies we have been asking about that

are trying to lace out entire piers or can we take a pier anyone wishing to speak should give their name, state that they are a resident or non-resident and they will have 5 minutes. what do we do with the sheds they've been vacant foreign a long time. >> thank you for asking pier 90 have small spaces but for storage sharing for restaurants and on the storages but to find find spacing those storage locations during the chinese new year's we can broke down for sure and a bit of time and all that so we are trying to market 19 for that pier 29 is on and just nodding to have columns but we are open for smaller spaces for sure. >> commissioner gilman. >> thank you >> so we are

talking about the sheds space it is similar to the space um, on i want to say pier 40 if we walk be backwards they're using for the facility for the marina tenants? just right one note some of the businesses have brought in trailers to make that look more like an office not typically what we want to do so most of sheds are limited by how much activity they're used for storage and very that was my question for the internet and electrical sea boomers this is just powell for storage. >> just powell for stoppage and improvements that's the limitation. >> thank you. >> thank you, vice president. >> rebecca how are we 0 doing

in the ports was vacancies and leasing better look at everything; right? not just the city but how we stand across it san francisco are reabout where we had been like the norm. >> we're still low on the office it is how we're doing well, we should be doing better on the storage side one thing we've been talking with the economic development and again, what are we not doing should be more demand for storage so it is either access or how the buildings how people can get to their facilities and if they rent something we're trying to figure that out we should be able to lease and might be the congestion on the northern side we're trying to figure that out but office we're in so doing well. >> thank you. >> one more question.

>> (laughter.) >> so on the shed spaces the fire lane how much space is there square footage wise. >> a lot. >> the typical shed with one hundred thousand dollars for circulation so pier 29 maybe 70 thousand i'm estimating but you get the image. >> right. >> any other questions or comments? >> thank you becca. >> jen can next with pacific cruise ship terminals for terminal operations parking at pier 29 during cruise operations at pier 27.

revisions to the waterfront plan many of those revisions were related to comments we received from the dolphin club at the time the commission members had a key issue we have a draft in the staff report regarding transportation policies and getting from better clarification about the intent as it relates to the embarcadero enhancement project and public safety issues along the embarcadero. so in our staff report today, our proposed revisions that staff proposes to included in the final waterfront plan that is tended to respond to the commission comments among those amendments to policy 18 to provide clarification about the importance of priority of public safety along the embarcadero

promenade. and in the discussion led up to the policies make that clear as to the distinction within embarcadero promenade and the embarcadero roadway it's eats embarcadero project is primary effecting changes within the roadway so we can improve the public safety along the promenade. and so if you have any questions i'm happy to address those revisions but the intent of the revision to respond to the comments that we received from the port commission. we have also i think clarify that those are all in sync with the revisions from f s mta and the policies are in alignment with the transportation policies and aligned how to apply them along

the waterfront. um, i want to also spend a bit of time parallel with members of our working group here to speak to the debt and the caliber the public process that backs up the policies amendments to create the final waterfront plan. outcome co-chair rudy is here to share the dias with janice and provided the focus and the revision and the leadership for the port staff throughout the entire time and guided the entire working group to 7 waterfront teams to roll keeping our eye on that and the water issues thereby addressed from that effort, you know, developed one hundred and 61 policy

recommendations of which one hundred and 60 were unanimously endorsed and accepted by the port commission as well as part of update to the waterfront planning plan this was done in addition to um, providing a deep dive with the confirmation consultant providing modeling for the public and the working group to understand port leasing what is required to make them financially viable and how we fork in public access historic presentation and all those public benefits that are key in the waterfront plan so that people what understand the job that the port commission has to balance all of those different public benefits to achieve the best outcomes for each of the

ports projects. we really enjoyed gre um, support and participation from our agency partners including the state lands commission and the planning department and sf mta to integrate the policy and objectives and plan to be aligned as governmental agency across the board and workplace, you know, to provide for the support along term um, that will continue to provide go guidance for the port commission strategic plan. the foundation for the waterfront resilience program and a lot of equity values that right now being developed in more detail through the racial equity action plan so trying to weave all these together to have alignment and

in same house, same call? was a focus this this process is three stages of work with an orientation process the policy development and then a community engagement phase so that there was time dedicated to try to explain what the updating were entailed with the waterfront plan will look like for the citizens to understand that was a really regarding regarding *- rewarding so before the port commission what approve we have or have to finish the california environmental quality act and fortunate the port commission city administrator the final eir

recommendation to decide it we want to incorporate those into the public process we rereview them but through the remaining steps to be civil rights things can still change and hefty and i appreciate your time on that. >> thank you commissioner gilman. >> there are public process reviews in the policies in the plan and i'm telegraph hill working with david and the planning and environment team to use those the information is made available to the commission and public for review. so those policies are 85 in place. >> (multiple voices). >> i did want to add with with the nonprofit and following the recommendations of the

lee. >> i'm the newest guy here i believe that this is planned in order whatever looking at the photo of you guys around the table i can imagine how much arguing but my question i've not been in the environmental groups but you how much of the business communities are you listening to and covid 19 happened sometimes for general reasons and public safety, you know, and before covid 19 happened i was, you know, worried about that small businesses were over locked this is part of economic recovery and wondering about our conversations with the meeting you had people in the business community involved or anyone that was retired enterprises that's my question.

>> um, the answer is yes a very intentional effort to include all the different stakeholders and the particular types of businesses loan the waterfront were key to that so we had several maritime responses and from the hotel couldn't addressed fisherman's wharf business strength and those local flavored types of businesses in particularly are displaced to the waterfront and make sure those are included in the working group membership and through the meetings great news business and 345i6r789 responses that paraded. >> was there pretty sure a consensus i mean, i that that

everyone at has in their line about the safety and did you have to readopt our plan or is that in line with that. >> this is where the. >> call the vote. goes to the waterfront working group to rudy and janice and the subcommittee chairs for leading very inclusive and civil i mean that was you livestock 0 might have been life points of view not in alignment but we didn't is have controversy no anger words but people chris what they're particularly acres or issues were in a collaborate way and then developing policy language that cross one hundred and 60 recommendations you can balance through and all the 9 groups and

how to manage. so it is reflective of balancing act of the port commission always brings to the job. and to look at if multiple perspectives and people hoping learn in the processed by looking at it from different perspectivess than you might normally be aware of and um, and one hundred and 60 of one hundred and 61 points of view the public's work and that's why is powerful than for the public works and port staff to carry that forward. yeah. i i mean a lot of work i - i mean i congratulate all you, you guys and the people do have a voice and don't understand mom and pop

aye that come here to open and business and don't understand the environmental issues so thank you very much for that and everyone here. and, you know, obviously adopted i'm to follow that man. >> great. >> good to hear. >> (laughter.) >> thank you. >> vice president adams. >> i only say this is a master piece for those and anything for san francisco you understand the politics we can't help it but you know what the democracy a painful and i want to say that rudy and janice and linda and alice had the patience the back and forth and that is good. that's the democracy i think that everyone had a voice. you gave us everything and more

importantly have patience with the commissioners and had patience with the port staff the director. and then have patience with the public. because sometimes human beings we are - that's how it is okay. and rudy you're smiling up and running but that's a gong and all the times you guys come here but to me that is democracy diane and that played out really been that that played out i don't think anything can say didn't have their voice heard and that's what we do and i want to thank you, for giving the time and you don't get paid for doing that your sheddeds of this and generations will benefit if all the hard work and it is painful

may not hear from anyone but i can say this commission and each in this room if you don't hear from anyone else we appreciate it and wanted to tell you that and i don't want to say anything about anyone i want to say it now you can hear me. thank you very much. i don't know what you (unintelligible). >> (laughter.) >> i wanted to again say thank you to you personally and also remind you, we the great presentation on the committee -

subcommittee chairs alice and lynda great group to put this together in record time with such great recommendations coming out of that and we truly appreciate you and your leadership and thank you for being here. for the port you were so - when i think of the water plan i think it diane she's a lot of the plan diane and so as part of the port and the great all that you see outside. she's touched every piece of that and so we are eternally gratitude and thank you for bring us to this point. >> thank you. >> um, this waterfront plan and this waterfront is everyone.

effort so was good to for all of us to invest in looking fresh where we're going and used to be called the water land use when we built the plan because of comprehensive that the citizens have recommended for all of us i think that is very important to guidance visions for the port moving forward and cannot ask for a stronger more collaborative and wonderful set of team members and staff to shepherd we can move forward. >> thank you and congratulations on working with that group to make sure they're okay with that also (laughter.) >> thank you. okay. we have motion and second. >> all in favor, say "aye."

presents the good parts of the situation at the beginning the covid 19 many departments came together and in the bay view and opened this with help in the state of and wouldn't have done it without the staff and appreciate everyone for ultimate team effort with the projects and open in ground breaking time. and in terms of the impact on people xroerng homelessness we have three hundred guests of last week and one hundred and 18 guests currently on-site with one hundred and 14 units are still in operation. the onsite. >> 14. pulled consent agenda

items. working closely with the adult protective services and the and dos to provide the onsite 24/7 staff security on the sites. and to talk about those amenities you see a picture the site. this program offered an opportunity to provide non-spaces for those o people that living in extents in the neighborhood and isolated and able to provide showers in the r v and local pumping and pumping service and weekly maintenance two meals a day and laundry and we added a shuttle service so people could can get to other places they need to be. and a little bit of demographics

of the folks have been served at the site. you'll see the majority of guests were at the age of 45 and 70 percent of guests were african-american or black and the vast majority of those guests were brought in by outreach workers and similar to the breakdown of the people experiencing homelessness generally 66 percent of our guests were male. and one percent transgender and 20 others. and the won't right the good neighborhood policy but this is included in the mou. and we do provide quarterly report to the port on incidents as well as the current guests and the

housing placement. this is just a quick success story we have an opportunity in our view a woman that lived in the but been homeless on the streets of bay view over 13 years and has role lost hope and had lost connections with ongoing care and she and her husband were brought if by the outreach team to the trailer program and were welcomed with a hot shower and hot meals and the support of staff and really became a part of the community that was when her husband suffered a hear attack. so susan is now moving into housing and has moved into housing at mission bay. one of

the projects and able to take care of her husband because of support she received they trailer program. >> and demobilization as kim mentioned requesting the new mou to continue operation we can reasonably and deliverability wind down the project and make sure that the people have safe alternative places to go. and this is redundant to what kim mentioned but the process is the timeline of guests identification and have the team onsite to finish the work and make sure that everyone has a house and move guest eligible into permanent housing and those might not be eligible for housing work to make sure

the placement in a shelter and interested because some of the folks are from the area to make sure we offer them shelter in the area. and will work with the public works and the vendors to removal whatever (unintelligible). >> and kind of already said all of that but as of last week, we have one hundred and 18 active guests on-site and 59 are eligible for permanent housing and 8 for financial violence and 51 guests are still - that work will be happening over the next month's and i'm available for any questions that you may have. >> thank you. >> thank you. emily and kingdom for the presentation. >> any public comment in the

room. >> alice. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm alice rogers and i actually not familiar with that site but wanted to take the opportunity to say that um, what great partners hsh and the port has been around visible shelter situations i serve on the advisory group in the embarcadero and ca am impressed by the number of hours that those agencies role devote behind the scene to make things work but really because of the work that t the staff has been doing behind the scenes. >> thank you.

>> and any others public comment in the room? >> all right. anyone on the phone? >> no one on the phone at this time wishing to make public comment. >> thank you commissioner gilman. >> um, thank you for the report any questions? are for hsh support staff before i ask my questions i want to frame as commissioner for the port and at franciscan and first of all, commend the port for stepping up and two 0 it navigation soekts on the property and didn't skip a beat in approving that that the pandemic and full support for the facilities like this even if we have the opportunity for supportive housing but i guess emily the question i'm actually confused not about the

extension of 0 mou but the fact we demobilize over one hundred interim housing sites we have thousands and thousands of people still on the street and with the rent of having folks put that into the waterfront neighborhood. when the demobilization happened i don't understand why? >> rebecca i'll try to answer that owe kim just this in so the site as you can see not for residential that is intended to be a temporary use we have been working with potential tenants for the background that is primarily an industrial attach location and looking at maifrm industrial and support for offshore wind for the companies to come in so emily would love to - to stay as is long as possible we have been growled do

work with emily they don't a tremendous job and really our own this particular site able to have that back for industrial for all intents and purposes but looking at forward to working with p them and impressed as alice said and thank you,- >> (multiple voices). >> i wanted. >> (multiple voices.) >> and wanted to echo what rebecca said the demobilization so the port stepped in during the pandemic we prepared the trailer with the maintenance team in record time and hsh got that site ready but had to be a temporary site that was our

marine facility and to our and my director's report i talked about all the varies opportunities for maifrment and other opportunities critical for san francisco and absolutely the city is supporting the port for the facilities and it is important for the city of the industrial locations and emily is working at our request 100 percent not elies request for hsh. >> thank you. director for clarifying\that i racial inequity that a temporary use we we can reclaim that the goals are supportive of that my concern just role was support the 37 guests a beautiful figure but 11 percent placement no housing my concern the neighborhood we have so much happening the power plant will

start we have a development and the blue gateway my concern individual calls this neighborhood their home and not linked to permanent housing resources my concern is that we're going to see encampments in other ways for folks to live, you know, that also effects the interests and that's where the questioning was going i think we have morale responsibility to make sure those individuals are a secure place to lay their head and the port responsibility is the - i wanted to understand where this is coming from i appreciate the clarification. so emily will you keep the trailers and move to another site. >> we've not identified but we will be working with the state to determine - we're doing an

adjustment of the conditions and we'll be looking for other properties what communities have done this is my primary concern as well we have been working other than - we're approaching to wind down the is that you with the sheltering in place through the concerned efforts so much higher than a typical process not a lot of families are helped we've not done that push yet they'll be invited and we'll again, that brothers with 59 determined for housed that is confident we can get them into a rental subsidy will be hopefully and conversations with the team that many folks will be eligible

for supportive housing or for a housing voucher that is good for the wind down process and folks not we'll, offers with the bay view and shore if at the point to stay in the neighborhoods are will have that function. and do this as responsibly as possible. >> okay. i have one other question. um, so, you know, i - i wanted to see of it's up for us to keep the trailers for the state mandate i want to say i hope the department choose to keep them a valuable resource and can be placed in many locations to um, you know, to

you don't know to fisherman's wharf we need to have a crisis on our streets and we see it right cross here we know that folks are not housed i hope we're committed to the housing conditions. >> i support the extension and support absolutely respect that the port we need our property back for our own goals and initiatives particularly in the bay waterfront we are doing more but not giving away valuable resources can have other communities and other parts of san francisco to step up particularity the west side and house those brothers and sisters and we need more not less but

for f this tiff project is challenging we've been looking at they west side for trailers and parking places over a year without muck luck new know private/public partnership options for this text me call me off lion but we're looking for parcels like this. >> thanks >> thank you. >> commissioner lee. >> (clearing throat) well seems so important for people to get it together i know a shortage we can't keep it going but the process and environmental issues but i'm supportive but hope we can find another location i think that trailer parks are

good giving a chance to choose good luck. >> if you know of any parcels available let emily know (laughter). >> i wish. >> thank you. >> vice president adams. >> thank you, kim and emily, thank you i want to thank the mayor's leadership and listening to this wow. >> i have not forgotten that ronald reagan was governor shut down did hospitals in california and sad to see that 70 percent of the people were black and how percentage of them love probably - and i remember president brandon was gone on vacation but a navigate center across the

street ass alice recommends reminds that day that was exciting but and sometime we worried about 80 percent of those will never happen but got it through that day and good to see we are able to give me one thing i like what was happened here bus everyone is always on the accusing what are you doing when anyone is watching that goes to the is where i get and emily i see what you're saying we have doing everything we can and sometimes maybe this choose us. so be that have a morale and responsibility to do all we can so i appreciate and i'm

supportive, however, this thing moved with the fellow commissioners asked good questions but would tell montana do ever think you're above something bad happening or situations are a heart attack or stroke everyone had a story some people were very, very successful so don't under estimate we have been an going to help. >> emily and kim thank you for the presentation emily i don't envy you in our role. because like nobody is happy all the time everyone has their challenges and i think the port has been stroll supportive of hsh and, you know, with the two

navigation centers one of the trailer the r v park and, you know, i wish were more we could do because it is huge issue but and some how we have a all together and speak to us and we have to take care of we all have to do something we can't be concentrated in one area. you know, there are homeless people all over san francisco. and so this is judge from my knowledge we have we have to decrease the trailers but now covid 19 is over so are those at full capacity? do we have room to take in more?

>> thank you for the question president brandon. >> across our shelters we reduced the capacity dramatically at the beginning the covid 19 and moved folks to - to hotels and merely back to where we were were covid 19 in terms of expansion more work to do in the embarcadero to expand but the beds are back online we've been expanding that property again up to a full 30e7b8 or potential not achieved still in the ramps of covid 19 but other than we are pretty much fully back to our precovid 19. >> what do we need to do with the embarcadero? >> put people in them. >> absolutely. >> go ahead, go ahead go ahead. >> the question i have can we - we read stories in the chronicle people are accepting the navigation centers?

>> and have you invested so much in. >> we have a pubically available dashboard to track it availability and you'll see it fluctuates but today or monday it was about 90 percent full. so and that's across the entire shelters system we want to make sure we have enough slack to make sure the homeless team has the best to offer folks we don't want to drop below 85 or 90 percent and one preference for this for the trailers people are still accepting those as well. >> thank you emily. >> vice president adams. >> well, i think, you know, we need to point out this is just not a problem here. in san

francisco. outcome commissions in d.c. and sacramento and it is seattle and it is many portland and los angeles county and the mayor race been in in los angeles one of the largest cross the country 0 there's an issue are homeless. we can't escape the politicians a lot of politicians talk about that the area race and stuff like that but something that plagued this country and really we're the richest nation in the world and ought to be ashamed of ourselves, we, you know, do better we can do better. >> fdr said that best you, you have beds and don't be cruel it is form of being cruel. >> thank you. any other comments questions?

recommendations? >> (laughter) thank you, emily. >> we look forward to seeing you on the 25 and okay. next item please. pre-qualified pool for consultant services for the proposed pier 50 earthquake improvement project, initial study and pre-design services. >> good afternoon, commissioners. >> thank you president brandon my name is stephen the waterfront program and quickly want to introduce christopher will present on this item. chris joined the program in january. as project manager and taken on key responsibilities in the program and for the project manager for the earthquake improvement project supporting the ferry building seawall on

>> so once we do this we are ready for whenever recommendation this is for the instruction how will that be paid for? >> so right now we have not determined that but building by vans to the predesign and kind of identifying the prioritization will be granted available. >> oh, great okay. thank you. >> so this is an informational presentation and you're not coming back to us for a you're you're coming back with an award. >> right. >>. thank you. >> if all community-based organization well. >> thank you. >> okay. next item, please. >> item 12 new business so schedule and tour at seawall and

to provide a report on contract close outs coming up on the budget and other performance metrics and also were several comments about commissioner lee related to real estate i put it down we will have a briefing on that and any other new business? >> any other new business. >> could we get a most check if on the demobilization of the navigation center for the housing and maybe to understand overview from the department when they do their housing i want to make sure there is not i don't think will be any racial disparity this population at the site are black and brown i want to make sure they're having

access to the housing solutions. >> any other new business? >> vice president adams. >> ma'am, i want to ask for adjournment for this solidarity. >> i second. >> all in favor, say "aye." >> any opposed? this meeting is adjourned. at 5:26 p.m. [meeting adjourned] maybe it is adjourned. [meeting adjourned]

[♪♪] fisherman's wharf, this is a working wharf and it's part of the beauty of the san francisco area. >> before the restaurant, before the t-shirt shops. >> at first the fishermen would go out and do the harvesting.

they process the crab. >> it really is industrial. it is fish processors. >> it's a working, living, breathing place. and it's a great place to visit and there's a lot of history. >> i'm a third generation italian fisherman. we're one of the oldest fishing families at fishermen's wharf. my family's been working here since 1908. my boat's called the lovely martha. sport fishing means when you come out and catch your own fish on the boat. commercial fishermen come out, catch fish, it gets processed and they sell it to a store. they're selling crab off the boat. there's nothing more fresh than a crab. our crab are sweeter and better tasting. the meat is firmer. >> more crab. >> we love crab. we love the people out on the boats. they're awesome. >> what a good meal tonight.

>> we just barely got down here in time. we would have come earlier if we knew how much fun it was. >> this is the place to get crab if you're looking for it. >> some of these boats have salmon permits. so every boat kind of does a different thing. you can come down here and have wild caught salmon that was just caught that morning or the night before and there's nothing fresher than that. >> that's the whole thing of coming out on a party boat. you can catch your own crab, lock cod, halibut, salmon, you can't get that kind of fish. >> now the consumer can just buy here if they want to and take it home which is great. or they can buy it herend take it to one of the restaurants and they can have a glass of wine and enjoy the crab we just brought in for them. >> come on over. it's great. nice and beautiful here in san francisco and the port. definitely come. >> our fishermen are super excited. it's great to have the public come down here and interact.

>> it's a whole experience for the family, where they bring the kids and interact and say wow, the crab's alive. it's going to claw me and everything. >> they really get excited they're coming down here and posting their recipes or pictures of the food. or their kids picking up the crab. they're making a whole experience out of it. >> it is going to give the locals a part of san francisco that was taken away from them. >> now i have a reason to come back. >> i had a guy the other day come and say he hasn't been down to fisherman's wharf in 10 years. he said i'm going to come down here every weekend. i forgot

♪ [ music ] ♪ ♪ >> the two largest bridges in the road, symbolizing pioneer and courage in the conquest of space and time. between these two great bridges, in historic san francisco bay, here's tribute to the achievements of our time. he's a dream come

true, golden gate international exposition on manmade treasure island. >> the 402 acre artificial island was build by engineers from 1936 to 1937 on the neighboring buena island. 300,000 tons of rock was used to build a seawall around an existing sand ball then followed by filling the interior with dredge material from the bay which was consistent of modern sand. the federal government paid for construction ask three permanent buildings which would serve as a potential future airport. treasure island was constructed at the same time as the bay bridge and it was a project of works progress administration to construct this island, which was initially used to host the golden gate international exposition.

>> carnival gone big. it was busy. >> it was going to become an airport after the exposition but it was turned over to the navy and turned over to a military base for the next 50 years. >> 1941, the united states army moved to treasure island as america prepared for world war ii. the island was a major training and education center with 4.5 million personnel shipped overseas from triangle. after the war ended in 1945, treasure island was slalthed to be an airport -- slated to be an airport but aviation changed and the clipper were no longer in regular service, and the island was never developed as an airport. the navy continued their presence on treasure island. during the cold war years, the island was a myth training center and for military efforts throughout the pacific and asia. personnel trained on and shipped from treasure island and supported military

activities in korea, vietnam and the persian gulf. >> the base was listed for closure by the navy in 1993 and the city began a process in 1994 under the redevelopment agency, forming a citizens reuse committee to look at potentially plans for the island, island's future. after the base closed in 1997, the treasure island development authority was created to develop and implement a reuse plan. >> the navy has completed their environmental cleanup in that area and last week, the california department of public health issued a radiology unrestricted recommendation for that portion of side 12. it's a big milestone for the project. >> the treasure island development facility was setup to implement the master plan that was adopted by the board of supervisors in 2011.

>> given the importance of housing in the city, both the affordable component and the market rate housing, we felt that it was important to review what the housing plan is at treasure island. >> the development facility and (indiscernible) that oversees the implementation of the master plan to make sure that the master plan, which was adopted by the board of supervisors and adopted by the city and after meeting, that's plan that the city approved. the members of the board was appointed by the mayor and the board of supervisors. [multiple voices] >> the (indiscernible) is very detailed plan. looking at the ecological aspects of the island, looking at the geotechnical aspects of the island, but also making sure

that there is an ongoing of development that's in keeping with what the original plan was, which is that we have up to 8,000 rooms of housing and there's retail and hotels. but also that there is open space that's created so it's an overall plan that guides the whole development of treasure island and the buena island. >> materials used during the construction of treasure island severely compromises the integrity to build structures. in today's geotechnical engineers standing, treasure island soil is being readdressed for soil stabilization for future development. a mechanical stabilization process is being used to consolidate the liquid fashion of the mud and sandy soil. >> because treasure island is a manmade island, we have to do a significant amount of soil improvement before we can build new infrastructure and new

buildings on the island. in the foreground, you see here, it's a process called surcharging we we import additional topsoil to simulate the dead weight of the future buildings to be constructed at that site. so this is causing bay mud that underlies island to consolidate over time and we can monitor that and as that consolidation primarily consolidation is complete, then this soil will be removed to the intended finished floor elevation of the new structures. ♪ [ music ] ♪ ♪ >> in the 1989 loma earthquake, the ground level of this island dropped by four inches. pretty much uniform across the island. loose sand material used to build the island, whether it gets hit by a seismic forces, the sand moves and consolidated. >> one of the processes to

further stabilize the loose granular ground, a dynamic rate is used to densify the soil by high frequency mechanical vibrations. >> the rig in the background has four h-piles that goes down through the upper 50 feet of sandy material and as they vibrate, they vibrate causing that san material to consolidate and settle so as we do that process, we observe about 18 inches in settlement so the ground level around that equipment will drop by 18 inches, so this causes that same type of event to happen through mechanical means rather than through a seismic event. >> the dynamic vibrant compaction rate vibrates the soil every four square meters and moved along to the next section. to further assure stability, tamping is followed around the site, compassion takes approximately three to

four months to complete 12 acres. once the compassion and tapping is done, it's settled ask using laser alignments to assure a level service to build on. >> i think that every city when they have the opportunity to do something that is as large as treasure island because treasure island is five hundred acres and it depends on their needs at that time and in 2011 to now, the most important are thing for the city is housing. there's two aspects to that master plan. one, was the new district for san francisco. 8,000 units of housing, which is all levels of stability. the other (indiscernible) is 300 acres of open space and parks. and

actually, it's the largest addition to the park system in san francisco since (indiscernible) 300 acres and this is a tremendous gift to the public, both the housing, which we desperately need in san francisco as well as an open space and park system which really is going to be worm class and it will attract people in san francisco but attract people locally as well as internationally. >> cmg architecture was brought to the project once they award the agreement between the city of san francisco and the united states navy. cmg has earned national recognition and numerous awards for merits and design, social impact and environmental stewardship. >> we were a part of the project in the beginning when the

developer initially was awarded the exclusive negotiation agreement or the ena with the city and they partnered with the planning and architecture group and we joined that team to work with the developer around the city and community to come up with a plan for treasure island. >> so there's quite a lot of open space in the master plan and there's a couple of reasons for that that's pragmatic. one is that the amount of area that could be converted for private use on treasure island was very limited, actually it wasn't allowed at all because treasure island was previously public open waters and protected by the tidal and trust act to be redevelop for public use. but there was a land swap that was allowed and approved by the governor of california, governor schwarzenegger to be put on a public trust for a one to one swap to be taken out of the trust to be developed for private use such as residential and that amount of land was 89

acres which leaves a bunch more space that can't have housing on it and the question was, what to do with all of that space? there could be other public uses that allowed such as conference centers or museums or universities or things of that nature but what made the most sense for this location was to have more parks in a really robust parks and open space plan and that's what led us to the plan we have now. >> planting strategies for treasure island and buena island are to maximize habitat value in the park areas wherever appropriate and where we can to create comfortable at the pedestrian scale. there are these diagonal lines that go across the plan that you'll see. those are wind row trees like you see in agricultural landscapes where they are tall tree that's buffer the winds to create a more calm areas down at the pedestrian scale. so of course, we do have some areas where we have play fields and

surfaces where kids need to run around on and those will be either lawns or like you see in norm at sports field. >> related to where the housing is on the island and its convenience to the walk to the transit hub, i mentioned we're trying to create high-quality pedestrian -- and the innovations of treasure island is called the shared public way and it's a road that runs down the middle of the neighborhoods. it's a curbless street, cars are allowed to drive on it but pedestrian can walk down the middle of the street and the cars are to yield the right-of-way for pedestrian and it's intended for streets where there's a low traffic volumes and the traffic speeds are low so while car was allowed, there's not a lot of reasons for cars to go on that street but it's to create a social street that's much more pedestrian-friendly and prioritizes pedestrians and bikes. one of the interesting things is working with all

architects that have been designing buildings in the first phase to encourage them, to create architecture that welcomes people to sit on it. it's wlm like sticking its toe out and asking someone to sit on its toe so buildings integrate public seating and places for people to hang out at their base, which is really, the opposite of what you see often times in this city where there's defensive architecture that's trying to keep people off it. this is architecture that's trying to invite people to come and inhabit it at its base. >> incorporated in the landscape architect of treasure island are wetlands, which are designed to factor in coastal erosion control from incoming sea level rise and natural animal habitation and stormwater runoff treatment. >> there's different kinds ever wetlands planned for treasure island and they have different purposes. they are stormwater wetlands that's treating the runoff from the island and filtering that water before it's released to the bay to improve

the water quality in the bay and the ocean and the first phase of the large wetland infrastructure is built on buena island to treat the storm water from buena island. we might see that when we go out there. there are tidal wetlands plan for the northern side of the island where the sea level rise adaptation and flood protect for future sea level rise is held back away from the edge of the island to allow sea level rise to come onto the island to create future tidal wetland which is helpful for the bay in the future as we see sea level wise flood out existing wetlands and there are some natural vernal pool in the wetland that's captured rainwater and capturing certain habitat so there's three purposes of the wetland primarily around water filtration and habitat creation. >> consumable sustainability was incorporated in the redesigning

of treasure island. innovative urban farming is included in the plans to foster economic viability, conservation of water, and to promote ecological sustainability. >> the urban farm is 20 island. and it's a commercial farm to produce food. it's not community where the volunteers and neighbors grow their own, it's commercially run to maximize the food production and that food will be distributed on the island. and interestingly, the urban farm is tied into the on island wastewater treatment plan which creates recycle use for water on the island so water used to grow the island will be a sustainable force and we're trying to close the loop of water, food, and create a new model for sustainability. >> part of the design for sustainable landscape was incorporate natural form water garden filtering systems, the first of three natural stormwater gardens is here on

buena island. and a total of ten will be on treasure island. water from storms, street runoffs from neighborhoods has the possibility to collect toxic materials as it makes its way back into the surrounding bay. this garden has been a model for future, natural filtering systems through out the bay area. >> whenever a storm comes through, all of the water, you know, it lands on the streets, it lands on the top of the buildings, and at times it often collects a lot of heavy metals and greases and it needs to be cleaned and before sent back into the back. it goes into the pipes and stormwater drainage and put into our stormwater basin and then all of the plants and soil you're seeing in there, they are acting as a filter for all those oils and heavy metals and greases and all things that's coming off the roadways,

coming off the development and so it's treated here in the storm water basin and then it's sent out into the bay as a clearer product and cleaner water which increases our water quality here and throughout the bay area. so the structure in the center of each basin is what we call the for bay. that's the point at which the stormwater exits out of the storm drainage system and into the stormwater basin itself. so the for bay is shaped as almost a gate to kind of push all water out through the pipes, all of those rocks help to disburse it before it's sent into the stormwater basin itself. the storm water basin was designed to fill up to the height of the berm of the side you're seeing here. so this is juncus and these are well-known fresh water grasses found in any place around the bay area that you find standing water or in a drainage channel, you're going

to find a lot of these junket species. this is a leave a lifter in the bio treatment. it soaks up a lot of water, to soak up the contaminants and heavy metals, so it's kind of our backbone species. this one is called douglas siana and the common name is mug war. it's a beautiful plant but doing the heavy lift and pulling, those contaminants out of the storm water and pulling oil to help treat the water before its sent back into the system and back into the bay. this plant is known as salvia or hummingbird sage. it has a lot of habitat value in that it's a strong pollinator plant. obviously, you can see the pink and purple flowers which come up in the springtime and attracts a lot of hummingbirds, a lot of bees which help to pollinate the other species within the garden and throughout the rest of the island and all of those native

plants. all of these plants are designed to be able to take a heavily inundation of water over a several day per like standing water for a long time. all of the plants can withstand that and honestly, thrive in that condition. so all of these were selected based on the ecological and habitat value but also their treatment and functional value for stormwater. >> this is super tiny. >> it's very much a big part of our design and master plan for the development of the island. it was a navy base and a lot of navy housing on this island specifically for around 80 years and during that time, a lot of innovative species were introduced on the island, eucalyptus, a lot of different european and algerians plants were on the island. we wanted to bring in the native eye college here on the island before the

navy started to redevelop it and introduce some of those invasive species so the species you're seeing in this stormwater garden in the basin and the upland area was a part of those types of ecology s that's trying to be returned to this side of the island but different other spaces through out the islands development. so whenever we started this process, we identified a number of species of native plants that seem applicable to the ecology that we're trying to grow. there's 45 species, so a -- there's 15 species so they are hard to find in the nursery trade so we needed to grow it ourselves to achieve the biodiversity that's in the design here. as a part that have process, we brought on a nonprofit group called ledge,

l-e-g- which is literacy for environmental justice. they grew those plants and put together the plant palates you see. >> most of landscape was inundated with invasive plant species eradicating species and having the plan on buena island and treasure island. literacy for environmental justice, a community volunteer educational program involved with restoring local habitats and preserving san francisco's unique bio tie varsity, teamed up with the redevelopment group to grow the 50,000 native plants to -- to repopulate treasure island. >> the city of san francisco set up meetings between leg and they came in with high expertise and urban design, and architecture,

and green infrastructure, but they really hadn't worked with flytive plants -- worked with native plants at scale and they were also kind of scratching their heads, like how are we going to grow 50,000 native plants from remnant native plant populations. it was a unique partnership of figuring out what plants can grow, what plants will function in stormwater gardens. not all native plants are ascetically pleasing to landscape architect, so we kind of worked around what plants are going to be pleasant for people, what plants are going to provide habitat, what plants are going to actually be able to sequester carbon, deal with erosion, preserve the island biodiversity as well as be able to manage all of these stormwater treatment on the island. >> there's about 33 naturally occurring native plant species that survived the last one

hundred years on yorba buena island. we were able to go in and get the seed and salvage plants in some cases, some of the development work that occurred was actually going to destroy native plant habitat and we went in before the bulldozers and before the roads were build and the new water tanks were installed and dig them up, divide them, hold them, of the 50,000 plants we grew 40,000 of them in-house and the other ten, we had to rely on our partners to do it. with the 50,000 plants we did, we did 100 species and 95 of them are from the county of san francisco. about the other five are from the state of california. but the other 95 species really are the native plants that have been here for

thousands of years. we used collection sites such as angel island, the presidio had genetics for the projects in san francisco. we used remnant plant habitats at hunters point and we used a lot of genetics from san bruno mountain. just to collect and process all of the genetics was a two-year process. and then it was about a two or three year process to grow all the species. >> this is the infamous -- it's a low, growing sprawling native herb and it's in the mint family and i'm rubbing my hands on this and it's extremely aromatic. it feels like a flush of peppermint just came across my face. it's edible. you can make tea out of

it. it's a great digestive plant for settling your stomach. it has been cool to introduce yerba buena to yerba buena. this plant is called dutchman's pipe. when in bloom, the flower looks like a dutchman's pipe. and another thing that's unique about this plant is, it's the whole specific plant for the pipeline swallow tail butterfly. so some butterflies are able to adapt to other species and can use larva and food from different species. in the county of san francisco, there's only about three or four healthy populations of this plant. these particular plants were going to be destroyed because of the green infrastructure project needed to

put pipes in and needed to demolish all water tanks and build new water tanks for the island, so we were able to go in, dig them up, cultivate them, extrapolate dozens of plants into hund hundreds of plants and restore it through the restoration process. one day one of my nursery managers was down here and she found the pipeline butterfly have flown over from yerba buena island and came to our nursery on treasure island and was breeding on this plant. and successfully did its life cycle inside of our nursery. so, it? how that butterfly knows it's out there and find it, this is one of those unique things that we can't explain why butterflies can find this species but if we grow it and put it in the right location,

they will return. so the plants we're looking at here is faranosa known as just dedlia or live forever. the construction is it work happen nothing that area, it's likely to be destroyed. a unique thing about this plant and the unique succulents we have in california and the live forever plant can live to be 150 years old. recently, the state of california just did special legislation to protect this plant. i think in its intact population on the island, there's less than 50 of them, so to be able to grow several hundred of them and have them be a part of the plant palate of the stormwater gardens that was installed recently is an increase of biodiversity and a step forward towards protecting the natural legacy of the

island. >> i moved to treasure island in 1999. i believe i was one of the first residents on the island. i have seen how the island has been destroyed and reconstruct since its beginning to restore the island to its native form is extremely important to me because that will help all the animals come back to the island and make this place even a better place to live. >> i want to be here because these are people i know, so that was my first thing is just, like, i wanted to come here to help out and be with (indiscernible) and to actually put my hands in dirt. i feel like we as people don't work in army -- we don't see the benefits of plants, like, but i just learned about a plant that if you rub it enough, it turns

into soap. that's cool. and we need those things. we need to know about those things. >> one really unique thing about this project is the scale. to use 50,000 native plants over 7 acres is a scale we have never seen. it really is trailblazing when we think about the 350 or 400 acres of open space that is planned for treasure island, it sets the stage for what is possible. there's a way to use nature-based solutions at scale to meet the needs of climate change, sea level rise, the crisis of local extinction and create natural environment. the first phase of the project sets a stage for what is possible and i just feel really blessed to have been a part of it.

>> one of the main focus on triangle is keeping vehicle traffic to a minimum. for residents and visitors, public transportation is highly encouraged and will be the center point of keeping the island pedestrian-friendly, retaining an open space sent and providing an eco system that reducing carbon emission >> we need the transit to be successful because if we had 8,000 homes here and everybody was trying to use their car to access the bay bridge every month, it will overwhelm the system. new on and off-ramp are being constructed but all over the focus of the development is to be very transit oriented. triangle itself is very flat and very bikeable and walkable as a result and so there's a focus on using both bus and ferry service to get from the island to san francisco in the east bay. there

will be a number of transit demand management tools that will be employed of the two new ramps to and from the -- to the island and allowing a limited number of cars to access the bridge and there will be a management toll to encourage the use of transit. >> all the market rate housing on the island, the price for residential unit whether that's a rental apartment or a for sale condo, the price of the unit is decoupled from the price of the parking spot. so people can buy a condominium without paying for a parking spot. they choose to have a parking spot, they would pay an additional price. market rate residents are required to purchase take transit pass each month through their hoa fees or through their rent so the residents will begin the decision of driving or taking transit with a transit pass in hand each month. that transit

pass will function as a muni fast pass allowing people to take muni and transfer within the muni network and function as an ac transit allowing people to take ac transit to the east bay and transfer within the ac transit system and it will also provide unlimited access to the treasure island ferry. >> treasure island is going to take decades to be fully build out. it's going to take some time for it to reach the envelope that was passed by the board of supervisors and maybe there will be changes to it as well. we don't know what is going to happen in 50 years but i'm confident by the fact that the plan that was adopted was fully, fully thinking even for its time and the building the island to a way it's

sustainable, it addresses sea level rise, but also gives the public the open space and parts that are so necessary to fill treasure island. there's economic, certainly, challenges and whether we're going to be able to build out all of what was desired in the master plan, it will -- time will tell, but i think that the last ten years, we've been coming to this point. we are seeing incredible progress and the infrastructure is being finished by the island. market rate housing is being finished. affordable housing is being finished. and so, we feel within the next five years, substantial part of what we had envisioned is going to come to fruition.television.

>> in 1948 swensen's ice cream used to make ice cream in the navy and decided to open up an ice cream shop it it takes time for the parent to put money down and diane one of the managers at zen citizen in arena hills open and serve old-fashioned ice cream. >> over 20 years. >> yeah. >> had my own business i was a firefighter and came in- in 1969 her dad had ice cream and left here still the owner but shortly after um, in here became

the inc. maker the manager and lead and branded the store from day to day and in the late 90s- was obvious choice he sold it to him and he called us up one night and said i'm going to sell the ice cream store what you you talking about diane came and looked at the store and something we want to do and had a history of her dad here and growing up here at the ice cream store we decided to take that business on. >> and have it in the family i didn't want to sell it. >> to keep it here in san francisco. >> and (unintelligible). >> share worked there and

worked with all the people and a lot of customers come in. >> a round hill in the adjoining areas loved neither ice cream shop in this area and support russia hills and have clean up day and give them free ice cream because that is those are the people that keep us the opportunity to stick around here four so many years next generations have been coming her 20 er thirty or 40 years and we have the ingredients something it sold and, you know, her dad said to treat the customers right and people will keep on coming back and 75 or 74 years, you know, that is quite an accomplishment i think of it as

our first 75 years and like to see that, you know, going into the future um, that ice cream shop will be around used to be 4 hundred in the united states and all gone equipment for that one that is the first and last we're proud of that we're still standing and people people are you tell people it's been around in 50 years and don't plan on

[music] my name is husheem anderson a lieutenant with the san francisco fire department born and raised in san francisco, grew up in western addition. both my parents worked for the city. my dad was a

custodian with san francisco school district and mom a muni driver. when i grew up in san francisco i never thought of the fire service as a career. not because i didn't want to be a firefighter, i just didn't know anything about it and it was literally the experience of trying to figure what i was going to do with the next part of my life where i decided to go to city college and take a couple classes. that is when i discovered there was actually a fire science program program emt program and paramedic program. if it wasn't for that opportunity to get the education training and meet several mentors that are some of my grood friends today, i don't think i ever would are have pursued this career. i was interested in becoming a paramedic so i did work experience at the ems division when it was actually in the presidio, completed that program, did my

paramedic internship at the same time i volunteered with san francisco fire reserve and able to learn a lot of hands on skills associated with becoming a firefighter. san francisco went through a period of 7 years without hiring, so we hired about a 130 people off of the 2001 test which is the first fire test that and ever sat for, so i took that test, did pretty well on it t interviewed, didn't do as well as i liked so they hired 130 people off that list and didn't hire again for another 7 years, so here i was training to do a job where i was really excited, but there were no jobs after 911 so things slowed down and once the fire department started hiring again i was in the second class hired full time in 2012. because of the experience i had here at city college, it was always really important for me to be

able to give back. so, when i got to the fire department, i didn't have a college degree, and in order to teach at a community college you need a college degree, so quhile i while working as a firefighter i got my degree from saint mary college so i got a bachelor degree. i teach firefighter 1 and 2 curriculum for the program at the college. after i promoted to lieutenant, then i applied to be a instructor down at the training academy because i always loved to teach. my past experience is really helpful in terms of how i'm able to break down information and pass it alodge to brand new firefighters. so, for myself, i didn't know very many people of color who worked in the san francisco fire

department. as african american working in this department i always felt a obligation to be that example, to provide a roadmap for folks who look like me, who come from communities that i came from to make sure they have the same opportunities. now as a san francisco firefighter i can tell you if you work hard, you get along with people, you will be welcomed into this department but we can also do a better job of representation. to me as a company officer when i'm on the fire engine or truck it is so helpful to have a rig where members can relate to the public we respond to. to me that cultural diversity of the members on our fire engines, on the ladder trucks is important because if we can do a better job of representing the community that we are serving, i think we do a better job of relating to the community that we are serving, and to me that is something that is really important.

good morning and welcome to the monday, april 10, 2023 meeting of the rules committee of the board of supervisor i'm supervisor dorse competence joined by vice chair walton and member safai. i want to express our graft to youed to our clerk mr. victor young and thanks also to the team at sfgovtv for fit
