point neighbors, to the candlestick cove neighbors, to be bayview -- to the bayview pac. you name it, we have been there. i think the kind of outrage that we have had has been unprecedented -- the kind of outreach we have had has been unprecedented in the city. in addition, e-mail and snail mail a number of newsletters to people. we are still getting back coupons from people wanting to know when the houses are going to be available and that kind of thing. i personally have participated in neighborhood fairs, and we have done balloons and t-shirts. i mean, there is no development out there that has had as much about -- as the executive park has had. i am pleased to say that we even had a 30-year barbecue to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the community advisory committee for the executive park. i am pleased to say that we have had just a tremendous amount of community support throughout the entire community, and we have leveraged, frankly, our community support to be used to support the continued opening of the candlestick point state park. we have kind of combined our e

for candlestick point, immediately to your east. i cannot say that it is precisely the same. there are slight nuances and differences. but that is what is approved. >> how tall are these towers? >> west to east, they are 170 feet to 100 feet, to 80 feet. >> they do not get taller? >> they go up and they come back down. >> 170 feet. and as a vision they had a tower that was not a part of this proposal, just to give you a sense of what was already approved, otherwise it would be at 160 feet. in terms of density -- >> in terms of density can you talk about a project in the shipyard area? >> it is commensurate what we have with candlestick. they have an office park. hunters point shipyard north is bound by the same scale as executive part. they have roughly two towers. by think that they were up to 200 feet, 250 feet. >> in terms of proposed height, where was the starting point for staff in developing this proposal? >> i came into this after it began. supervisor cohen: me to. >> essentially it was the same scale as they have now. three

i was one of them taking the bus with my father out to candlestick. i am sure all of you have your stories of candlestick. some of you, even of field stadium. now we take our children and share experiences, my wife, bringing it all home full circle. the triumph of this team allows it to track back and connect to the past and to connect the beauty of our experiences with an unbridled joy. none of this would be possible without the leadership that came before who dreamed of this day, people by the name of christopher and still numb. larry mosconi. alioto-pier, feinstein, agnos. as bill mentioned, our dear harmonists sue burns. this is a dream fulfilled for all of us. also, we must pay tribute to an incredible front office staff who makes it all possible to support the work of this wonderful 2010 giants team. [applause] many of them are here. many of the staff that you saw, people working at the ballpark, we saw marching at the beginning of the parade. i hope you were able to pay due to them as well. thank you, 2010 giants. you will give us more than you

this is south of candlestick park. we'll have more on that coming up in just a moment. let's move along and take a look at the commute here. if you are driving on 808 northbound -- 880 northbound, you'll see traffic is busy, but it's not stop and go just yet. if you're driving in the south bay, the traffic is okay. 101 is to be avoided in san francisco and northbound as you can see here. let me see if i can circle it for you. this hear here, right here between let's say the airport

there have been a lot of changes happening as candlestick came into play as well. there is a lot of large movement. entitlements might be in place, but we are not talking about entitlements now. we are talking about the zoning fight -- framework. even given that, the way that the market has been the sluggishness in the market, the time frames for these budgets become speculative. supervisor cohen: that segues into my next series of questions. , and up, matt. [laughter] you are back on -- come on up, matt. you are back on. >> but we do in every downtown fraud to a and we will be notified but a public hearing. the key difference is we are so -- assuming that the use in itself is a common data by the planning code and that we will no doubt on issues of design, there are criteria within an with design guidelines that are tailored to an incentive for 309 is the review process. community members working in community groups will be notified and will have an opportunity to weigh in as they consider each incumbent. supervisor cohen: good answer. this next question has to do

the funds would be used for the u.s. 101 candlestick interchange reconfiguration project. this interchange is located partially in san mateo county and partially in san francisco county. the improvements would enhance circulation for vehicles, transit pedestrians, and bicyclists. the funds would be used specifically for what's called a project study report which is a conceptual feasibility stage document that's required by the state department of transportation, caltrans, for any project that's proposed on the state highway system. the steps after this stage include environmental clearance, engineering design, and finally construction. the city of brisbane, which is where the interchange is partially located, is serving as the lead agency for this stage of work. and the estimated cost of the stage of work is about $720,000. the p.s.r. is currently at about 80% complete. however, caltransrecently began to require reimbursement for the staff time that caltransstaff spend providing oversight on projects such as these. the cost estimate for that caltransoversight is $110,000.

candlestick/hunters point project. whether that dates back to a certain time, it is hard to say that because i cannot recollect all of those hearings. i will say that certainly the process we are following, and the approach with this particular project is very consistent with other projects and environmental impact reports we have done before, as well as projects with development agreements. going back to the mission bay project, the hunters point, the parkmerced project -- all of those were project-specific. we do program reports for things like eastern neighborhoods. the procedural steps we go through for some of these projects, whether it be mission bay -- i think it was before other projects were in place. it is similar in terms of board of supervisors actions. supervisor weiner: yesterday at the land use committee, we also heard the booker t. washington project. we forwarded it without recommendation and will hear an eir appeal as well as consider the underlying project. that is on a similar track to this project.

we have a great program for them all set up with a new lennar development at candlestick park. i think they will recognize that and come back. >> was there anything magical that happened in your district as a result of the world series? >> i imagine there were a lot of districts in district 7 he sat and cried when they watched the celebration like i did. i think those are the magical moments. a lot of parents and children region that whole week of the world series was one i will never forget, particularly the day of the parade. it was not just my district. that was a magical time for this region. >> in your regdistrict, deal have any particular projects to give us insight on? >> one was a basic infrastructure thing that was a big deal. san francisco circle. not a lot of people realize that more cars travel through one of those intersections than any other in san francisco. we had to shut that down and completely rebuild the intersection for the muni winds utilities, and overheads. we pulled it off. we got through it. now we have pedestrians walking through safely. we have the t

the soccer games at candlestick would be jeopardized. the urban markets would be jeopardized. we have a number of events from the channel 6 parking lot, and this could be jeopardized. we have some interesting issues related to the america's cup and we are not quite certain what the impact of this ballot measure would be on the ability that we have to join the city family in making certain that the amenities are available for the america's cup in 2012 and 2013. we have a five-year lease with them, but does this ballot measure prevent us from renew this without side planning? and by crystals. the pioneer log cabin which we have been thinking about, tennis lessons, at the amenities in the tennis complex. the palace of fine arts. as i understand this, the measure says that there should be no new leases and no new fees. the moratorium is leading the palace of fine arts in march of 2014. we would like for someone to follow them in that space and we are not certain of the implications of the ballot measure on the ability to get a new lease at the palace of fine arts. we are still cal

the last item was the interchange at candlestick park. the amendment was to request staff to work with bicounty partners to create a mechanism for more community involvement. chu: thank you for your report. any members of public who wish to comment on item number 3? >> my name is francisco decosta. i do not know if you noticed that when the gentleman was giving the report reportly pointed out that they are dealing with huge projects linked with the southeast sector involving highway 101 south. the widening of the street. the implications are very serious. and one of the ways the san francisco county transportation authority can address the situation is by having a localized meeting so people can have the best input. we are talking about millions of vehicles that are going to be flying in this area. we are talking about particulates. we are talking about over 10,500 homes plus that are scheduled to be built in this area. so the citizens advisory committee can get some briefings. but what is important is that we get the input from the many

from at&t park, it goes all the way to candlestick park. there is a lot of opportunity. don't squander that. we wanted to be a healthy mix that reflects the cultural history of the southeast part of the city. >> what are your thoughts on how the city can deal with the budget issue? >> we are in a very difficult time financially as a country, as a state, as a county. we have a multimillion-dollar deficit. what i see is we have competing priorities. >> ok. >> there's a whole host of non- profit and service organizations that provide a service and a social safety net for people. if people are not able -- they're not making money to get on calworks, or they get on aid, we cut that aid, that has an adverse affect on a population that needs it. i would like to see the city continued to move in a direction where we are prioritizing when it comes to our budget, our budget strategy. i was fortunate enough to be named to the budget -- i was not fortunate enough to be named to the budget committee. i will exercise my voice to guide us through this precarious system. i think we need

the basis for this language is derived from a similar language from the shipyard candlestick transaction. it was based on fe bic -- based on feedback from the sf puc. per supervisors cohen's request, we provided a one-for-one replacement for the existing preschool child care space on site. this is to clarify the notice of special restrictions that would be recorded against that property to ensure that no matter what, over time, there will always be 4000 square feet of preschool on the site, even if the service had to be moved. nsr would essentially say it does not have to remain in a particular location, but there always has to be 4000 square feet on the site. supervisor mar: it does not mean that the school that currently exists will be there, but it locks in a future child care center. >> correct. presumably any number of child care providers could bid or offer to use that . we are not going to predetermine who the ultimate user is. as section 3.15 added, at request of supervisor chu, this agrees to contribute seed money to the school project. this will accelerate pedestrian safety imp
