this was an r.f.p. that we've issued may of 2017, when we were seeking managers in emerging markets, global, and developed international. dan has some of the statistics, but my recollection is it's something like 130, 125 responses? >> yeah. we started by evaluating on the order of i think it was 136 different strategies, but we drastically determined that only 36 of them qualified for what we were looking for. and again, we were specifically looking for managers that were very different than the current managers that were concentrated, high tracking error managers. and so we focused on those 36. we came to you with a list of 30 semi finalists that we then had phone conversations with and trips and in-place meetings, both san francisco staff as well as nepc. >> and those five are still the lists. >> of the 30 semi finalists, these are the ones we're bringing forward. >> it looks like b.f.a. >> b.f.a. didn't qualify for the very concentrated, very high tracking error. >> we're trying to complement -- >>

r.f.p. and gone an r.f.i. but once we undertake an r.f.p., we don't have a lot ofof leeway because we need to ensure that it's transparent all the way through. >> can we improve the r.f.p. process? >> no. >> well, we have a difference of opinion. i believe we can. we'll come back and talk about this because the need to improve every piece of the portfolio to include the international, the global and the emerging, that need does not go away. the opportunity is not going to go away. can we do better? >> well, under perfect circumstances if we would have been fully staffed, we could have brought the information earlier, if that's what you mean by improving the process, but once you issue an r.f.p., you know, you have to follow the very specific rules so set out by the city. [inaudible] >> -- joe, and you, jay, are correct. i think there's always room for improving the outcomes in the r.f.p., and that has to do with the predevelopment of what that r.f.p. looks like, different metrics and so forth of different peop

will have three feed kiosks in it, and a second beer garden building which we will then go out with an r.f.p. to select something to run those. but because those buildings are permanent, and they are producing food, we will need hot and cold running water to them, and we will need those spaces conditioned. >> lots of work. >> huh? >> lots of work. >> great. >> i move. >> so commissioner singh moves. would you mind seconding? >> i second it. >> great. thank you, dr. scott. madam secretary, please call the roll. >> clerk: for agenda item 5-a, please announce your vote when i call your name.

. >> i just want to give you an update of the proposal for lafco public services. i have a draft r.f.pat will be sent out in the next week or so. since the contract language for legal services hasn't been updated in many years, i've just needed a little time so review the duty so that i can be thorough in the r.f.p. i should have a significant update at our next meeting on sept 21 as the r.f.p. would probably have been issued by then and we probably would have received submissions, and i expect the whole process to be completed by november . >> supervisor fewer: thank you, mr. gobel. commissioner pollock? >> commissioner pollock: thank you so much for working on this. i know we have been long overdue to take a look at our legal services. in the last meeting that we had, i had made some comments that in past years that our legal services specifically with ms. miller, that it was hard to know if there was a conflict of interest, and i just wanted to clarify my comments from the last time, which was this was in regard to the last time when there was a stall at the sfpuc in terms of the co

pier 3032, so i'm hoping that you can confirm we can bring that back up on the agenda quickly if an r.f.p. or whatever process we recommend so that we get the ideas going for pier lot 330. and i do hope -- and i know it's not part of the r.f.i. that went out, that ideas for pier 3032 continue to percolate. it would be a shame if we decided that pier had to disappear because we didn't have another choice. also getting rid of the pier is going to cost a lot of money. if we can find some way that doesn't require heavy use, a lot of infrastructure support, a lighter use of the pier that i think is more in the interest of the public and revenue generating, i think there are there ideas out there. you put that ship out there, whether it's a museum or floating hotel. i know that's not a concept that everybody agrees with. it works in long beach with queen mary, but i think that we'd hope that we'd find some ways to figure out a better use of pier 3032. and i know that was not within the scope of the historic embarcadero district, but those are two things that really stand out in the presentation

had an r.f.p. for a new marketplace framework and it was created after consultation with the department of technology, c.m.d., local 21, and the use of the departments with large i.t. needs. and the conference was held on july 9th and bids are currently due on august 1st. it's our hope and intention to have the new marketplace operational in january of 2019. the r.c.a. will present the new marketplace's tier one contracts to the board of supervisors later this year for their review and approval. to recap, we request permission to have the cap on three tier one marketplace contracts so the contractors can continue to compete for work inside of the marketplace inside the o of thet six months. >> supervisor cohen: i'm going to pivot and here from the l.b.a. and hear her recommendations. >> yes, as mr. penning said this approves amendments to three existing contracts in the computer store, central computers and intervision and xtech and we have the increase in each of the contracts on page 19 of our re

last fall, we did an evening meeting with hilltop homeowners and brought the r.f.p. to the commission prior to release. in january and february this year, we went back to the housing subcommittee to describe the process and recommend a developer team. the team will be going back to the c.a.c. and community with proposed schematic designs once they're more developed. as i mentioned before, the marketing of the units to preference populations is the highest priority. it will follow the shipyard and candlestick point preferences. other preferences, displaced tenants, rent-burdened households. the developer will work on a marketing plan and will get back to you as is complete. as with all of our projects, consultants will be selected. it's under way and the team is preparing it select the general contractor. the developer is strongly encouraged to select a general contractor joint venture, including s.b.e. our current schedule, subject to change, has us coming back next spring. we'll request approval for permanent loan for the project and hoping to start construction by

r.f.p., as i recall that was roughly 25% of the points, i believe 100 points. we felt that was certainly a very important component, however in the case and we thought that was an important component but it was weighted equally with experience of the operator which we also thought was highly important. we had a concept plan we also felt was integral to the success of the restaurant and we had a community engagement so there were various components of that and that's how that point amount was determined. >> great, thank you. >> commissioner woo ho? >> thank you. it sounds like this is a distinguished group that's come together. we had our consultants tell us in terms of what they think the projections for this type of space and business plan we received there are some differences. if we were to look at other comparable sized restaurants on the waterfront how are the projections we are receiving from anchor compare? >> yes, that was prepared. if i can get my notes here for one second. you are referring to the projected sales revenues commissioners? >> uh-huh. >> that was part of the staff report with century urban. they did review basically what was proposed in t
