come out and challenge us because this port is the people's port. thank you and i look forward to serving another year as v.p. >> thank you. that is it for the election. >> 9b. >> good afternoon, president brandon, vice president adams and congratulations on your election. members of the port commission, members of the public and port staff, i am elaine forbes. the executive director. the first item i have i is accommodation for renee dunn martin on her retirement. when the port loses a long-term employee, to well-earned retirement is a joyful and sad occasion. joyful for the person leaving and sad for the organization. this one is impactful for me because i worked closely with renee for many years, both as a colleagues and a boss. renee represents the very best in public service combined with tenacity to get everything and i mean everything. while maintaining positive relationships and having fun in the process. she has been our communications director for 21 years. 21 years of service. she works tirelessly for our divisions and she has been workin

port is a busy agency. we have a lot of responsibilities across the board to the community to ourselves, make sure that the waterfront is preserved. it is vital for san francisco. yet we also manage it from a viability standpoint because we have to sustain the fort and it's resources since it's very capital intensive as you mentioned and we'll discuss that later today. so i want to compliment you and really, i don't think there's anything here that i would find that doesn't work. i would like to say that glad to see the transportation improvements, in particular, because that's been an issue with the public and with us in terms of just the congestion on the waterfront. obviously, more work has to be done. i'm glad to see that we've made progress in that in 2018 on a tactical level. we know there's a lot more that has to come in that regard and i think, i'm not pulling that one out in particular but it seems that one is the one that is almost one of the hardest for us to make really significant progresses on

>> port commissioners, elaine, peter, you -- you -- you were here when i first came to the port 15 years ago. you already had a long service with the port. you know, i've had a few moments in my career where i've really gotten the opportunity to work with you. and i just have to say your commitment to the core values of the port's mission, that maritime mission has been unwaivering in everything you've done. there were times we'd look at pier 80, and the rest of us would wonder what's happening there? and you carried this torch. i think it's the force of your will that we have pacia at pier 80. two different plans for will america's cup -- for the america's cup, and one plan for the south. you had the vision for the cruise terminal at pier 27, and we got to work together to align those two things so that the america's cup really helped deliver that facility. that's another, you know, juewl on the waterfront. i have so much respect for your legacy on the waterfront and how you've dealt with everybody at the port, how you've been a colleague, and you know, holding onto that vision. and so

port staff researched that option. the problem is there's risk for both the port and for those future condo owners at the end of that groundless term. what happens to their property when the lease expires? so we didn't think that was possible, but the port commission did want to see ongoing revenues and benefit to the trust even after the sale. so you'll notice on christine slides here, if i could put that summary of financial benefits up, line two shows annual transfer fees. this -- this site is going to generate perpetual revenues to the port that we estimate starting out at $464,000, so there is an ongoing benefit. also, the c.f.d. annual revenues of $4.5 million. we expect those to go on for 120 years, and that's only true for the for-sale sites in the projects. so that's a very long winded answer, but we hope that there's an ongoing financial benefit to the port. we know that there will be. >> supervisor mandelman: thank you. i'm torn. i suppose i think if i were on the port commission, i would have pushed all of

commission has helped guide the port on over several -- as long as i've been at the port, seven years, while we're all counting. so on the operating expenditure growth, you can see that personnel really is driving port costs, as well -- you know, we're aligned with the city message. the cost of personnel is significant. really, together, while salaries are definitely contributors to this group, and work orders, those are actually projected to grow at -- at c.p.i., so we're assuming 3% inflation. also significant, but it's really -- the port relies on other city departments to provide services. they're just a large component of our budget, and therefore, we naturally reflect growth in that cost line. this chart is intended to help explain a bit more about why -- why we're forecasting strong capital investments. so this is showing trends year over year in the different types of operating expenses. as you can see, the capital budget is represented through yellow portions of this bar, and the reason why we have that -- have money to make those investments is because of the areas in green,

i want to know what the port is doing to end juul's use of port property and what will be done to ensure the public's trust is done to protect us in the future in managing port properties. >> good afternoon, commissioners, again. i'm alice rogers, and i was at the november november c-wag meeting when this issue came to the floor. there was a secondary level of concern not addressing the subleasing issue. that's very complicated and very difficult, but the public access and public vitality and inclusion issues in the public realm aspects of these buildings don't seem to be delivering on their promise. i can't speak highly enough of the quality of the reconstruction and the engagement of the developer company during the process, so it comes as quite a surprise that the lobby area, the ground floors, the piazza area, the wonderful picture of the party notwithstanding, are not really being activated in the way that we all anticipated. and i'm truly hoping that the second great listening tour will help rectify that. i think this is really important not only for this historic core project, but

to the right, the docks -- the launching dock, a port of that is in port's jurisdiction, as well as the water area under the dock, and i'll have a clearer diagram in a moment. so the jurisdictional issue is what ghives rise to our kpalg today that we're -- challenge today that we're trying to address. in 1990, it was zofred that the pothe -- discovered that the port held jurisdiction to the property. the port's jurisdiction is the dotted line that sort of cuts through the middle there. below that dotted line, the gray shaded area is the beach area, the crosshatched area is the dock that's on the port jurisdiction, and the water area underneath that, the polka dots is the water area in question. the port, when this was originally discovered entered a lease with the south end rowing club to be sort of a colandlord. that was a complicated relationship that really didn't work out financially. as part of the settlement agreement, you approved, we wanted to move forward to a relationship that sort of standardized the city landlord position, and this m.o.u. is intended to do that. so the terms

it has served the port and the port's partners implementation efforts over the past eight-plus years, since the plan's adoption. we have nominated and successfully achieved the listing of the iron union works district, crane copark construction, partners with orton, as you're hearing today, and partner for a new adjacent site on the historic waterfront core. however, it also acknowledged that development of the site must be responsive to the challenges of the historic rehabilitation, real estate market conditions, and yet to be determined, the time environmental mitigations. the preferred master plan having been done prior to any ceqa analysis of the prior site. this slide illustrates the challenges of the site over time. in this slide, the historic core is circled. you'll see the buildings outlined on both sides of 20th street, with the buildings shown in dark red, all the buildings in the core except for building 14, identified as both the most historically significant buildings at pier 70, and also the most at risk of collapse. as mentioned buildings 113 and 114, and building 104 w

so this is the port process that we have developed -- or it follows the port -- the procedure that is -- has been developed and used by public works. the only differences are in the red dashed box and the red process boxes where we are going to -- we'd like to substitute the chief harbor engineer for the director of public works as the decision maker on the initial protest, and if the protest is then appealed -- or the decision is appealed, we would like to use the port building code review board instead of the city board of appeals to decide the action. >> okay. could i ask a question? >> we need a motion -- are you done with your presentation in. >> -- your presentation? >> yes. >> okay. can i get a motion? >> so moved. >> second. >> is there any public comment on this item? no? okay. >> okay. so you have to take me back to help me understand exactly what personal wireless service facilities means. does this mean, you know, a company wants to put something in separate. we're not talking about the at&ts or verizons or whatever. >> this is actually the verizons or the at&ts. >> oh, it

we need to do more on ports of entry and in between ports of entry. we saw the apprehension of fentanyl letter border crossing that could kill millions of americans. a couple weeks ago we saw over 700 pounds of cocaine in the rio grande valley coming in between ports of entry. yesterday we saw math coming through the border in arizona. clearly, the war on drugs is not over. we appreciate president trump wants to do more. >> lou: the war is not over. for crying out loud, we have seen since 1989 clear and present danger, tom clancy's book in 1989. we have seen the amount, the explosion of deadly drugs crossing the border. ten times as much as them. the dea spending $57 billion on its own to watch her grow ten times. we are not fighting a war. i have got to believe and i want to get your sense of this, the corruption has to be on both sides of the border. this country continues to say it's only on one side. we know better, don't we? >> we know mexico is a very poor country. definitely, we have to do more and build those physical barriers so that we catch

of entry, maybe we might need more ports of entry, that is part of the negotiation. what did he say today -- congress -- doesn't matter what congress does? i knew that he wanted it all to himself. really? a president who wants to have congress be completely irrelevant in how we meet the needs of the american people? no. come on. let them work. i am an appropriator. that is one of the places i was forged. intelligence and appropriations. and they know their briefs, they know their limitations in terms of financial resources, and they have to choose the best way to use the money for the american people. that is why i have confidence in what they can do. reporter: mr. mcconnell indicated he might be open to supporting legislation to end of a government shutdown. would you support legislation to effectively outlaw government shutdowns? rep. pelosi: yes, but there are so many possibilities on the table that i don't think that should be part of this agreement, because there is no consensus as to what that would be. if there is a consensus, maybe it could be. just so you kn

ports of entry. you build a wall, they're going to go through a port of entry. look at the drug case happening right now in new york. what are the bad guys saying? we're going to go to port of entry, we're going to use cars, we're going to use vehicles, trains, we're going to go through ports of entry. or, the u.s. postal service. so you can put a wall, but look at where they're coming in. those x-ray portals, we have them in laredo. they work. you can get an 18-wheeler, by the way, laredo handles 15,000 trailers a day. 15,000 trailers a day. and therefore, we need the latest technology that the commissioner talked about. it works. i've seen it. but, we need to have it in other places. you want to stop people that come in and stay here? in 2000, how many people do we have, border patrol stopped 1.6 million individuals. last year, it was 398,000. so, it's about a quarter of the people that were coming in. and, 67% of the people that are here illegally came in through legal visas, overstays. by the way, most of them were canadians. i'm not saying to put a wall in

these are ports of entry.ts of entry is a place you go up to and there is a human that checks your truck or your car or asks you questions. customs and border protection shows in 2018, 90% of heroin, 88% of cocaine, 87% of meth, and 80% of fentanyl seized along the border was being smuggled in across legal ports of entry. apparently the president doesn't have access to these statistics. so if any of you have them, we'll post this. and can you please forward it to @real donald trump? joining am joining me now, julia ainsley and nbc's gadi schwartz live along the san diego border. these are people who dig into this stuff very, very specifically. julia looks at all the data she can find both official, anecdotal, from third parties. julia, let's start with you. can you talk about the president's claim that a lot of these people crossing the border are dangerous criminals? >> yeah, ali, i'd love to. it's not just important today when he's making the case for the wall. they will continue to use these statistics to j

we've had great support from port staff, the city family, b.a.r.t., and other owners to help collect data on all assets in the zone of influence. and along the way, we've found some gaps. one was lack of underwater survey data, so we completed a survey along the end of the seawall that will help us monitor size rick activity, waive area, and develop better cost incentives. we also developed an extensive geotechnical program because what's under the ground really matters. field work was completed on time at the end of november, and lab work is nearly completely, and restoration will be scheduled the next quarter. this investigation subsurface data will be useful for other port projects beyond the seawall program. work is underway to enhance seawall and flood hazards using the inventory and investigations. this is a major part of the work over the next quarter as we head toward completion of the multihazard risk assessment at the end of this year. the mhra is our engine to assess risk, and when combined with alternatives will help us zs how to buydown that -- help us decide how to buyd
