at the wing commissioner caen: 's -- echoing commissioner caen's comments, as we go into this planning effort, none of this stuff is simple. the fact is that if he tried to do more storage any meaningful way, rain barrel do not get you there, very frankly, and its storage is the answer, you may need to look at increasing the size of existing reservoirs, and i made the wrong end am delighted to be wrong, i do not think this is what you have in mind. as we look at all the pressures that are on the system, if we cannot work with a little bit -- local options, we have got to go back to the other. it is not simple on any side, and i think we're going to get there, and when we get there, i would like to have as down a base as possible about what the dissemination efforts are so we can have a conversation about that. it is also an old project that has been around a long time. it is a new project to be here asked -- as an mou. i, for one, am very comfortable proceeding to this step, and i am sure we will be joined with lots of notice in do time. and with that, if i could have a motion? commiss

commissioner caen: there are two ways to go. one might be to take this as a compromise where we vote on this and possibly pass it with the caveat that there is a public workshop. the other is maybe we put this off the agenda for the next meeting or next month and in the interim there is an outreach effort that happens wpt public and with potentially the other staff at the other agencies to make sure this study is tight and that all the community concerns are embedded into the study so that all the questions are answered that are outlined in the letter, as i believe they will be, but if there's anything else to make sure the public has participated in the process but to make sure that even with a full agenda that it would happen in short order. so i guess i want to get a sense from other commissioners if there's a preference and direction there as far as that goes, especially commissioner torres because i do hear you. i know i have the same concerns about public participation and realize that hasn't been as participatory that it

commissioner caen: i think we should contribute to the study. this came up 10 years ago. we were looking into buying water, were we not? so, this idea of reverse osmosis came of the. i do not think we should put our head in the sand. commissioner torres: you mean the salt. [laughter] commissioner caen: i think we've should continue on. >> 15 years ago, the major water systems and the bay area were not tied together. today they are. we're looking at different ways to tie them together. there is more of a collective look on how the bay area actually derives from all water supplied perspective. this is one option. there are different options, different benefits. we now have east bay mud, santa clara. east bay mud and contra costa are tied together. and part of this is the institutional arrangements. i think this provides us with enough information for this body to sometime in the future make a collective decision on do you want to do a project like this? commissioner caen: i mean, 10 years from now a lot is going to change and if we do a study now. what i've heard about dece

commisssioner caen: david had some issue with this. are you here david? >> he raised the issue about the level of specificity of the item on the agenda. commisssioner caen: david, do you want to come up and restate your question? >> sure. i'm very happy with the presentation. i believe the policy and what is proposed is absolutely sound. my concern was that the agenda item description was kind of bare. i do not know if someone else might have seen the agenda and not known enough to come. that was my only concern on whether or not it warranted taking action today. i absolutely believe in the program. i would also notes very briefly on the content, i recently saw a talk about the wpa and the project's steering the depression and the important art component to construction projects. give me a new appreciation of the importance of connecting art to public construction projects. i think that continues to fall into that. i think this will work. commissioner moran: thank you. president vietor: i think that would hava great to better infom the public. i think tha

president vietor: commissioner caen? commissioner caen: what is the timeline? >> that is a great question. this is a unique project. is entirely private. -- it is entirely private. what we have not said is the developer will decide when they will commence construction. that will depend on financing and the market. once they commence, the whole set of requirements, all the public benefits i mentioned are required commensurate with the development that occurs. so, this is more of a performance-based development. that is, the amenities are provided commensurate with the private development that occurs. we do not dictate the timing of that development. but certain obligations are created and the developer is required to make commercially reasonable efforts to improve the site. is driven by the market, but the framework is for -- it is driven by the market, but the framework is for public improvements. after 30 years, nothing has occurred, and if the board of supervisors does not amend the agreement, all the obligations expire. it is our estimation it will occur ove
