we anticipate some of these work , for example, work at pier 19 and pier 64. maybe undertaken by the minutes division. this may result in a cost savings to this contract amendment. but that is subject to one of the ordinance -- a city ordinance that staff will be working on, once the ordinances passed, we may be able to get some of these work done by the poor maintenance division. design for the [unintelligible] and is expected to be completed by the second or third week of may. staff is working with current agencies to secure the permits. we expect to get these permits approvals within the next couple of months. staff is working with the san francisco human rights commission to establish the local business goals for this contract amendment. we expect to have the goals established within the next couple of weeks. we have planned to complete the improvements for the event by july 20. the remaining work with the exception of work at pier 64 is expected to be completed by january 15, 2013. the work at pier 64 is expected to be completed by october 2013. with this

piers 30, 32 and pier 80. i will get into visual representation of what's going to happen at a few of the major locations later in the presentation. the process as you know has been very inclusive. there's been robust public involvement both in seekia itself and through the involvement of implementation plans that mike martin's office led. there were a lot of changes made to the progress through the process which i think is a good indicator that sequa is doing its job to minimize environmental impacts. most recent changes to the seekia findings reflect the elimination of mitigation measures associated with long-term development since long-term development is no longer a part of the proposed action today. so specifically the lease disposition agreement specifies port obligations to improve port property for the event sets forth conditions for delivery of that property over a period of time. if the commissioner approves the action we would hope to start transferring under venue licenses some properties as early

down at pier 80. pier 80 is a backup location for the team basis. if 3032 is not available, our -- i think our hope, hope of the teams and event authority is 30-32 is available and we're working to meet that schedule. that's a spin through the venue sites. i would like to provide a high-level summary of the financial analysis that port staff is going to get into further detail on later in the commission calendar. but just as a point of comparison with disposition and development agreement, under that former agreement, the event authority would have extended about $111 million to improve the waterfront both preand post match. here the port would spend $25 million is the estimate we're working with from proceeds repaid by the rents that the port will retain over the long term. under the former long-term agreement the port was going to give up $3.9 million in rents on an ongoing basis and by getting -- being able to retain those rents, we have added deck capacity as elaine forbes will explain in more detail. so our recommendations are to approve the pr

there is fill removal for pier 64. there is a range of costs here if we're able to have our maintenance biocryst brick -- perform the work. costs depend on the final requirements and the timing of those requirements. this is ed ceqa mitigation requirement the financing strategy is threefold. any tax exempt proceeds that were available. we have appropriated mostly funded pier 35 product to the cruise terminal project and we defunded the back land project for the pier 30-32 project. that was to utilize what we had first and to reduce the size of the new obligation to the city in the c.o.p. and to fund demolition and dredging with the real -- reallocation of budget sources and finance the remainder of the costs with c.o.p. you'll find the poor revenue bonds and real cal -- reallocation of poor capital funds and the c.o.p. not exceeding 45 million. you'll note in the report that capital funds is a combination of reallocating things to prove it in our capital budget. some of our projects come -- came in under budget. we als

the star princess will be at pier 35 south with approximately 2600 passengers. the island princess with another 2600 passengers and a fourth ship in dry dock. we think that's a record for the port to have for princess ships at once. the only other reports that possibly have had that experience might be for lauderdale or one of the caribbean ports. this is a big coup for us that we are very excited. we will and with the disney wonder which will be making her first cruise call of the year at pier 35 south one week from wednesday. it will be a very busy week and the maritime staff will be on call working constantly. as a result of the ships being in, there will be street rerouting from 6:00 until 2:00 to facilitate getting the passengers and supplies on and off. we are proud and my kudos to all the maritime staff for its great achievement. i hope you saw the announcement that for the first time ever, princess cruises has decided to home port a ship beginning one year from now in san francisco for a full year. that is terrific for us. we did not ascribe to the "if y

it's a walkway links the bridge with pier 48. it is diverse, it is split into three different rooms, with different environments at has a strategic placement of trees to create a comfortable climate because as many of you know, it can be when the and we have to plan for that. the first room on the left is a hard scape room with a grove of trees, cafe, and statue for public meeting point. the second room is a recreation place for families to congregate, a relocated jr. giants baseball field, volleyball, cafes and a place we think will be activated on the weekends after work and be a great place to hang out. the third room is the great lawn and that's big enough for festivals and concerts with more than 5000 people. you can fly kites there and have lots of different public activits

last year pier 1's operating income was up 49%.ril, the company initiated a 16 cent per share annual dividend. this company was selling for ten cents. now it has a dividend more than that. it took some time, but now pier 1 is one of the most successful retailers out there. this company has been underpromising and overdelivering for years, the exact opposite what jcpenney did going into the last quarter. with pier 1 came out with very ambitious long-term targets last month, people actually believed them. this is a business where actions speak a heck of a lot louder than words. with the stock three points off its high, i think there is a lot of upside here. pier 1 remains a terrific buy ahead of the breakout initiatives. if ron johnson ever wants to hear me say the same thing about jcpenney, he should take a page from the pier 1 turnaround handbook. focus on what is in front of you. realize that merchandising is everything. give your customers the products they actually want. and most of all, understand nobody is going to believe you

the little pier sandwich there is pier 35 that it was built in 1918 to serve ships which had a 500 passengers and crew combined. this ship here would carry about 5000. speaking of the dry dock, here is a picture of the golden princess in dry dock on mother's day. this has been picking up over the last couple of years. it has grown 20% from the time we enlarge the dry dock itself. it's the first time it has ever been done in the united states, so it was a very gratifying thing to do. we have coming in, two ships from the u.s. navy which we think will generate over 100,000 new man-hours coming forward. we are very gratified to our partners in their excellent work of bidding for them. there are two things that are most important -- we just participated in dredging the central base there. this has allowed them to bring in bigger ships and be more competitive. to direct results is they are bringing in these and navy ships, the knee -- the kaiser and the shepherd. pier 70 -- there's a big business after before them. we are trying to be ready for another bid it that the maritime administration will

then the rehabilitation of pier 48 provide spectacular opportunities to be consistent with the maritime activity, and also the possibility of local manufacturing. business is actually coming to pier 48 and being consistent with the history of this community and what they have been able to serve for the community. to serve for the community. we believe it has the ability to take mosconi center type opportunities that may be too small for mosconi center, so trade shows and exhibitions space and be a big house gift shows and other opportunities at pier 48. in all, it is truly a mixed use our been project that should have a lot of excitement and that there should be the connective tissue, if you well, between mission bay and the rest of the city, from city residents, regional residents, and tourists alike. again, consistent with a feeling of a very in character san francisco project. we're very excited. today we are sort of kicking out the public unveiling of this project that we have been working on for a while. as we have a gust of wind, we will bring the mayor of san francisco, mayor lee

that made a center pier impossible. the bridge would have to be based on solid rock at the other end. no bridge had ever spanned anything like that distance before. most engineered simply shook their head and said it counterbe done. everyone if such a structure could have been designed how could it be built. yet here the bridge stands, largely because of the determination and ambition of this man, joseph strauss. in 1916, strauss designed this efficient bridge. shanausi asked strauss about the possibility of spanning the bridge. strauss said it could be done, and would cost $150 million. an unheard money heard about at that time. strauss said it could be done, for 20 million. although he had not built any bridges he had no degree in engineers. the design included two types design. strauss was more a sales man than a designer. it was ellis that came up with the fluid design that would be adopted. finally in 1917 the work began. the first stack was to seek the anchorages that would tie down the cable. the enormous pulls m

we discussed see what 337, pier 38 reteneting. there was one year when it became worse than your three because the debt was in place and revenues were not quite there. by fiscal year 2016-17, the result was a net increase of $3.8 million. we had no more requirement for a budget reduction, and we met the 25% target. so it will really be careful review of our development opportunities and guidance on that 2014 issuance planned as a key opportunity for us to enhance our capacity to invest in capital. as for next steps, director moyer already discussed the board hearings coming up. we are in the process of finalizing the budget submission. we will return in july to present a final budget and then we will show you what the result is and all aspects, including capital and policy. we will be participating in a much more detailed review of the update to our connection forecast in preparation for the city's plan to be issued next year. i am here with the port budget manager. she put together many of these tables -- the five-year. i am also
