the team is waiting to see what bid that the city has put forward. they will of the alleyway that compared to any other that they receive. -- bay will compare that to any other that they receive. -- they will compare that to any that they receive. >> this does not answer the question as to what happens in a different time line. >> i'm not saying that the board provided more time and tried to use this productively. i doubt that the team would be available for further negotiations. >> can we move to the city? >> mr. chairman and members of the committee, as you know we just received a new amended agreement from the mayor's office today and we just received a report and we have not reviewed those reports. there has been some discussions about the differences between the reports on the americas reports compared to the office of work force development and the budget and legislative analyst's. to provide you with one example of the differences between the two reports, on page 14, we stated that although not specified in or required under the host city agre

there was a counter proposal sent to the city's team over the weekend. without getting too much into those in terms of my presentation, i want to say that i am available to answer any questions you might have about the concerns in a letter. if you want to discuss some of the things they raised in the counterproposal, we would be happy to do that as well. supervisor mirkarimi: other than the quality of the letter, was there anything of surprise? >> the concern underlying the letter and the counterproposal is the desire for some certainty. it is a highly uncertain process. we have future approvals are required down the road. the team is trying as much as we can to try to gain more certainty in the agreement. we understand that representatives of the team are coming to town this afternoon to be able to sit down with them and discuss the ways in which the city can provide that certainty. we want to make sure that it is a good investment from their perspective. we talked last wednesday about commercially reasonable financial terms. we want to make sure that t

we are the negotiating team. i know you can appreciate that dynamic that we are pressing them for information but at the same time trying to negotiate a deal. as a policymaker, i think it is completely appropriate for you to ask for that information as well. supervisor campos: i respect the very important role that the team plays. i do not think it is important for us as an elected official to try to micromanage the negotiations. to the extent that written confirmation and competing bids is something that you would naturally do, i think that is something that should be done by the negotiating team. i am not one who is going to try to micromanage the very good work you are doing. but to the extent that you were saying we need to make sure we're putting our best foot forward, the deciding factor is making sure we are sure what we're competing against. if we are competing against other countries, that is one thing, but competing against ourselves is an entirely different matter. i do have a couple of other questions

those are permanent improvements that the teams will make. the question is what would they received in return on top of bringing the race here and the economic benefits that we will talk about in a little bit. so the agreement crafted in the original host city agreement was the long term lease right ability to create a public- private partnerships as we have done around the waterfront, and as a way to make the ledger balance, this is a very large number. also included the long term development rights of seawall lot 330 or the outright sale, as well as ifd tax increment on proceeds from the ultimate development of those three sites. as you have probably seen in some of the analyses, that does roughly balance. $150 million of improvements, and that package compensates for that. if anything, it falls a little short. the return to the team with the initial $150 million investment. however, there are other impacts that have to be noted. by giving up the long term development rights on this three locations, that represents about $3.4 million of long

you said in passing that the team had the option to walk away. is that the $270 million number if we are having trouble? >> that is the $32 million number. but even in the event -- i guess, realistically, looking a year down the line, and they have already signed -- i do not know if they are ready to publicly announce it, but they have already signed one major sponsor. they are in the process of getting commitments as we speak. supervisor elsbernd: i guess that is what i'm getting at. if they do not get there, do they have the ability to walk away? >> that is not my understanding, no. supervisor elsbernd: ok, the $32 million question, the amendment that president chiu has presented to us, as i read it, it creates the ability for the city to potentially walk away if the committee is unable to meet their goals, but the way it is written, it says that we can do that at the ceqa completion. ceqa completion, according to the presentation you just made, will be pretty much 12 months from now. >> it makes a reference to section 9.3, which says they only

in the fight for the title i'm really one who think the team can remain. i would be excited game my things in this period. but i am happy to play this game because i think that. we move on after the moment we are able to come back to play our football and to try to do everything to him staying with what might have started the pre-season early this year with new coach should he get us nyan saying reinforcements are needed for the next campaign he replaces u.t. szymon he was sacked at the end of the season i think guiding the railway men to fifth spot and europa league place last night here and took spot and i was at the same place in the same season and it's been casting is i over the squad the worst in absentees during the latest crisis including most of the foreigners and first choice strikes me psyche of a cousin of john has made it clear he wants to bring in some new faces. when without question the team needs somewhere enforcements they can come from the outside as well as from the inside and the internal structure is the main thing we're focused on rig

the good news is, we should be back with essentially the same team that won it all in 2010. we have outstanding, young starting pitching. we have one of the great closers in baseball. we will have a very strong bullpen again. we have the rookie of the year catcher. we have position players that make a difference. we are delighted to be able to come to terms with aubrey huff, delighted to have him back with us. the same for mike fontano and pat burrell. we are also happy to have miguel tejada here, whom many of you know from across the bay. we are happy to have him here with us. we have two short months before our pitchers and catchers will report for duty in scottsdale and start the process. we have shut them down for much of november because of a long season and distressful last two months. they are all cranked back up again, getting in shape, ready to to spring training. we cannot wait to start in scottsdale. we cannot wait to have a championship season here next year. thank you for being here. thank you for your support. larry?

jacob has been a great asset to the team. so much so that we continue to tap him in additional capacity is. as we progressed and grew into a team, the roles and responsibilities of jacobs team members have expanded. we had created in 2007, began to formulate the delivery method of this project. what we based the original contract on was participation by jacobs on a more periodic validation rule. as we move forward, we found the need to continue to use more in a full-time capacity for cost and schedule of validation, as well as adding a $20 million emergency generator project. you may recall, that is a predecessor project which we began to realize was going to impact our schedules, in so much that it was trending not to be complete in time for us to do the rebuild. so we melded the two projects together and we were able to preserve the schedule by way of melding those two projects. supervisor avalos: i was told a big part of the delay was getting permiting through sacramento and there was still lives on the part of the contract

the committee recommended the northern waterfront alternative after consulting with the team about their race needs. we noted in the committee hearing yesterday that we have not had a full opportunity to discuss the northern waterfront alternative with the team. we did have an opportunity to sit down with mr. stephen barkley representing the event authority yesterday after a budget and finance committee to hear exactly what those concerns were and spend until about 7:00 last night going back and forth and trying to fashion a more certain terms of the agreement that will strengthen the city's bid. the port commission resolution approving the host city agreement really provided city staff authority to further negotiate as long as we do not increase the city's obligations or liabilities in consultation with the city attorney's office. we feel we have done that. i would like to spend just two minutes going over some of the proposed revisions to the agreement that we think makes it stronger. first in section 6.2 of the agreement, now permits the authorities investment in some of our historic

only in the national team but also. in england but also the people who are so negative about it i don't understand it at all. because we have to be proud to have players brought who are doing so well i mean you coached him it's in his office he wouldn't want to lose him earlier but you think in a way it might have helped under his development had he left to play abroad a few years earlier or do you think no i think he was twenty one to me for a couple years. of hell to me look because then the already set. in one or two years i want to leave. because sometimes players need chill and we have also some close in to do without saying names who chose to go to other club brought to show themselves to the picture and only did it for the sake of the service case because. when i arrived at the place with two players i wanted to keep those. i wanted to stay for one or two years more straight when i arrive i want to leave only a solution if you want to leave. because players who doesn't want to play for the club you could. help. pl
