commissioner makras. >> commissioner makras: your presentation, you wouldn't mind sending us a copy of it so i can review it? do you know when first notice from the water board was? >> formal notice was august 1997. actually in 2013, the water board issued requirements of the port maintenance permit to conduct additional investigations. in august 2017, the port and pg&e received a letter. >> president brandon: any other comments? seeing none. is there any public comment on new business? >> thank you i'll be brief. i know all have heard about the seawall a lot. i look to implore to consider the reasons not to give the seawall 330 embarcadero to the city. i want to say that the impact on the neighborhood was not considered. let alone the impact of the businesses and most didn't know about it until three weeks ago. i canvassed about 18 businesses at that time. they didn't know from safeway to 21st century amendment. the mayor is working to fast track legislation to forego the process. unlike the shelters and the dogpatch, the fifth and brian is in within district 6. one in embarcadero is

but i understand commissioner makras. mike, i think you and your team can make it a win-win situation and make it where commissioner makras can buy into it. i think we can make it work. i think i appreciate the guy being willing to invest, but they've been delinquent. why it went on for so long and nobody did anything about it, shame on the port. but moving forward, what do we do? i think this is a good opportunity from here -- that was shame on us for letting that happen. that's all i've got to say. thanks. >> mike, thank you. paul, thank you, also for your presentation. this is a hard one. i think our tenant in good standing policy is there for a reason, and i think think that as best that we can, we should abide by it. i think this is a unique circumstance in that although the tenant has not done the improvements that they agreed to do, and as commissioner adams said, shame on us. i think the reason we're look the at this is because we do have someone that's ready to step up, do the investment, continue the operation a

public comment is closed. >> commissioner makras: i support the item. implementation, we approve today that all future projects and everyone would implement lots of them. is that accurate? >> yes. it's not intended to be a regulation or hammer that we're going to put on ourselves on our tenants or development partners. it's really more a statement of intent and aspiration this is something that we believe in and work it achieve these goals. that we're going to do that in partnership with our tenants, our development partners, nonprofit organizations and the community. >> commissioner makras: i don't think i had a follow-up to that. it's optional? i prefer that it's optional. >> it's not a regulatory requirement. i guess you could construe that being optional. >> commissioner makras: in your presentation, you referenced water filtration. can you walk me through where that would happen? >> one of our commenters described it well hen he was talking about native plants now they function on land in terms. ash absorbing water and deep ratted and helping get w

>> commissioner makras, i'll go first. this is really comprehensive, and i really like the part where you showed us again how much the public knew about it, and then, the vote and all the work that went into this. and the community -- everything came together to realize that we had to invest in san francisco, whether it was state, it was federal, the community, and all the stakeholders came together, and we've got a long way to go. but if you're just looking at all this crazy weather that's happening around the united states right now, you know it's coming, and i'm just really glad that san francisco's going to be out front on this as we move through this, and i just want to say thank you for the presentation and i hope that you'll be back in six months or whatever director forbes brings you back, but i look forward to you giving us updates and continue to keep the public involved. we want their support, and we need to keep them buying in. so thank you. >> commissioner makras. >> thank you for the report. well done. >> ste

commissioner makras? >> congratulations on your retirement, and thank you for your service. >> vice president adams? >> peter and jodi, i can say that you can't call a lot of people a friend, but peter daly is more than just a colleague here, he's a friend. peter is a true example of what a renaissance man here. when you think of 31 years at the port, seven mayors, six, seven port directors, he's been able to transform himself, and he's been able to change with the times. i've had the opportunity to travel to shanghai, and china, and the philippines. if you really want to learn the soul and core of a person, you see how they are with a family. i know how peter loves his wife, jodi, and his two sons. i've been around peter. he balances his life, and peter lives that. he's very well respected throughout the maritime community, and people from all walks of life, they know peter. when we say we're going to lose peter, peter mentors young brandon and a lot of other people. as i said, frank sinatra said, i did

. >> commissioner makras. >> this tenant in good standing, it's going to be interest to me how we doit be a tenant in good standing today or the tenant in 66 years that they've been operating with us. >> so we have a tenant in good standing policy. it's a snapshot, but i think it's within the commission's discretion to consider the tenant's history. i think the totality of the picture is something that you'll take into account. >> i understand that. i would expect it to be currently in today's value going forward, and i think that's a fairw way to do it, bt i hope we have a clear lens on what tenant in good standing is and maybe have some guidelines on what it is. for example, if we're out there looking at a person's roof, and they're responsible for the roof, and it looks like it has not been repaired properly and it looks like it may be caving in, whether we called that out or not, we have the obligation to say that that's not the maintenance program that we would have on the roof, and i believe that would be a tenant that we should say is not in good standing. >> i think in a hypo
