in addition, we will have two managers on site, supplemented by tjpa. director ford: is there any staff from any of the member agencies, such as ac transit, the mta? i think all of us should probably have some folks there to help supplement this and just make sure it is as smooth a transition as possible. that is something agency-wide we're looking at in the mta to make sure. you are planning to do that, too? there may be some coordination needed of all of these volunteers or employees that are going to be at the temporary terminals. >> we are in close coordination with meany -- with muni and with ac transit who will be working with the program. we're working closely with our staff on what dates they can help supplement our efforts. we will have a terminal right inside the entrance, and then they will be there as well and walking through the site. also, i know that ac transit plans on having a table during the move once we are over at the temporary terminals for that week. at different times. an mta will have different staff available walking around. we

the cooperative agreement between the state, the city, and the tjpa provides a reserve to the state, 28 parking spaces in the new transit center for legal counsel. the new transit center does not have a parking garage. in the alternative, the cooperative agreement provides that the tjpa will provide 28 parking spaces within a certain distance of the new transit center. this item would authorize the executive director to meet the terms of the cooperative agreement in a line item budgeted each fiscal year for the amount not to exceed that. >> it's been moved. >> seconded. >> seconded. >> no no members of the public have wished they wish to direct you.

with the tjpa mta requirements fall behind. excuse my laryngitis. -- folded in. you you agree, we will proceed to meet with the citizens advisory committee in july. we did not -- or september. we did not wish to do that without your prior approval of the concepts. it would make no sense, so that is a very important part of our process as well. at this point, i have the great pleasure of introducing each of the artists who have flown here from various parts of the country or come here or taken public transit, and i will introduce each one individually. the first person on our agenda is james carpenter. jamie, will you join me? james carpenter design associates. we have had the great pleasure of working with james on the international airport where he has done the wonderful kayak- like skylights in the international arrivals building, and he is uniquely known for his work with light. he is considered the architect's artist, and for the way he is seamlessly able to incorporate his ideas and creativity into the building design, so with that, this is gene e. carpenter

when the mtc was working with the tjpa, caltrain, and the high speed rail authority on developing the investment strategy for the bay area application under our -- arra, we wanted to find a common methodology or basis for estimating job projections. what the mtc and agencies agreed upon was to use a recently published publication on job forecasts for capital investment. it is entitled "job impact of spending on public education day-to-day in 2009. in that study, they projected an average of 30,000 jobs created per billion dollars worth of investment in public transit. that number of jobs ranged from a low of 20,000 jobs per billion dollar investment to 41,000 jobs per billion dollar investment, depending on the mix of capital, operating, and right of way costs that were involved in that. this envelope of jobs includes both the direct jobs of people working on the construction activities on site as well as indirect jobs, fabricators of material, and supplies that flow into the construction project as well as secondary or induced jobs, employment flowing from the activities of the indiv

over this last year, web core has worked have been closely with the tjpa and with the design team evaluating the constructability providing input on the cost estimate, construction schedule, and value engineering efforts. the number of b that we will be preparing and the time period over which we will be preparing those bid packages has also extended out. so this contract modification is to increase the number of hours to reflect the additional effort from web core obiyashi over the past year, and through the bidding of the construction packages. if you have any questions, i'll be happy to take them. director cohen: what's the budget impact of the change? >> it's roughly -- i'm sorry. let me do the math real quickly. it's about $6 million of additional fees and that fits within our overall budget for construction services. director cohen: it's well within the contingency planned in the original contract award? >> question. in our program budget. the original contract award was for the base 45,000 hours plus the 7.8% mark-up on the value. it's within our budget contingency. >> you said 45,000
