My colleagues would see fit to work with the executive director to meet with the budget analyst and meet with the mayors people and i know the dance. I have done it for many years, and i think to do that in regard to getting things like a secretary. We need a secretary. I dont think the next executive director whoever it is should be sitting up here in the middle with us. For one thing that makes that person a target for the public. Oh hes running the place. Whoever the executive director is he should be down there with the staff and a secretary at the end of this table as we had as i recall when i was on the Police Commission carries out all sorts of good functions and briefing us as a commission and at the same time isnt subject to the kind of pressures that the executive director is in terms of well, if i say this will they think im not doing my job right or should i keep this under the table . Those are just the realities of the dynamics between us as a commission and our executive director which we wouldnt have those dynamics if we have a secretary as commissioner andrews said. Thats why it would be so valuable. [inaudible] secretarys responsibility is to report the information. Exactly. [inaudible] yeah. [inaudible] always have that role and responsibility from a seat down there but the same person that has the role and responsibility isnt the same person reporting out on proceedings and activities, and i think that would be a great separation of responsibilities. I agree. And i think it all depends what money we can get and what our priorities are, but to me enforcement is like you guys are saying enforcement is a big one and we have to figure out how best to spend t but certainly more help would be great. That is part of the budget lobbying as well and enforcement first but these other things as well, but youve got to go ahead and lobby for your agency. Someones got to be in there banging on the mayor and the it used to be harvey rose and as a year ago is not the budget analyst. Boy thats a change of significance of generation over a couple of generations. I think its a big loss to the city and i thought i knew how to push his buttons. [inaudible] and but in any event its got to be the jobs got to be done and i dont think its been done. From the City Attorney there is nothing inconsistent with commissioners personally lobbying whoever is doling out the funds. The commission when the time comes needs to be careful about interference with the day to day affairs with the commission staff. That line which is often hard to walk, but working with whoever that executive director is, and the commission, and i am sure we can figure out ways that the commissioners can be helpful to achieving the goal, but its it will be a line. Thanks. All right. Turning to agenda item 9, items for future meetings. Public comment. Yes. Since you had a bit of discussion on the budget. David pilpel again speaking as an individual. I think these questions about priorities and resources should be addressed with the new executive director, and as part of the budget process for next year. I think there are you had some of the discussion now but i think there is really a broader discussion and a good and fair debate about work load and priorities, auditors, enforcement, Commission Secretary. One thing you might want to consider in relation to the Commission Secretary that the Port Commission i think does successfully they dont meet that frequently and their Commission Secretary serves part time in that function and part time as the secretary to the port director so you wouldnt necessarily need a full time person to serve as Commission Secretary. That person could perform other tasks in the office and restructuring of staff and responsibilities and all of which you should discuss with the new executive director, and then terms how resources happen in the budget process certainly the commission can be involved with the director and i wouldnt call it lobbying. They might have to register but to try to seek Additional Resources. I think as changes to the laws have happened whenever something is proposed you should try to get in there seeking an appropriation for resources to meet the additional need et cetera and i think the expenditure lobbyist measure does that and that is kind of a model and really the additional functions that we might want for the commission be it auditing, enforcement, secretarial or other are really not that expensive in the grand scheme of the city budget. We could probably better resource the commission for 100, 200, 250,000. Its not like millions for street repaving or Something Else, so there maybe other ways and i agree that the new executive director should be a strong advocate for resources to meet your mandate. Thank you. Do i hear a motion to adjourn . So moved. Second. Any public discussion . [inaudible] pardon me . [inaudible] is there discussion on future items . Public discussion on adjournment . Call the question. All in favor . Aye. Opposed . Hearing none we are adjourned.

Hello commissioners and director im honored to be here to present the 13, Fourth Street to you on behalf of the team our collaborate oversees ill pass this toy around for you to play with after i show you a couple images the conceptual plan is barrel leg he will on your screen the basic organization of the project an e shaped building with split right now of town houses the e shape facboulevardt is. Facing. China baseline street that has all the services and the curb cut parking lot and the continuous retail loan Fourth Street. The perspective from the mission bay boulevard and Fourth Street the e shape planned is articulated into vertical segments and 5 stories of housing with the main entrance on the left an active use as Community Room and Service Spaces fronting into the street and a retail anchored on this south ante corner by a double restaurant space and outdoor parking with seating facing the park on this prominent corner from the looking from the north west at down the retails frontage on Fourth Street the retail continues down the street and vertically articulated an e shape continues down the street and the northwest corner chord by the use of van ness serves the project and the neighborhood the south end is this boldly articulated bar which is two stories well over than the 5 story remainder of the e shaped piece and it has this sort of bold color and strong taker over the columns which organ the utility and mechanic spaces that needs to face the street r street and the curb cut under the opening in the middle this is from the north from mission bay boulevard looking at the mid block and articulated town houses by our collaborate oversees and this is in the block a kind of complexity in the block we think that mission bay will benefit from town houses scombarnz on the internal walkway in the project and the upper floor units two floors are served by stoops in the mid block use ground floor plan shows the continuous retail north and south the main entrance on the west and the Community Lobby and the central core in the middle of the project served by a secondary entrance if the muse that is activated by people in the project using the secondary entrance to the lobby the 40 Parking Spaces occupy only a portion of the site leaving the remainder for retail and for landscape serving the town houses and the two courts. There is material pallet is spelled out in the packet and carefully assembled with the help of the agency staff a number of meetings were finding this pallet materials it somewhat for bid for the larger building except on the south there is this strong bar color subject and bar and then a more articulated playful pallet of materials for the town houses facing here so with that, ill go back to the main prospective and im available to answer any questions and ill pass the model around. Okay. So while youre looking at the lovely model ill finish up my presentation occ staff has spent the last several months working with the Architectural Team on the various design to insure the consistency the d for d and other planned documents the following represents the staff design comments or conditions of approval that must be resolved in the subsequent stages nonspecific landscaping the materials and building colors and architecture detailing for staff to review during the design phase and color and material samples will be submitted additionally the make ups are built on the construction sites and number two on the corner of mission bay and Fourth Street will be reviewed to refine the scheme on the rounded corner number 3 the design felt east elevation among first street will be dined for the retails to maximize the activation and transparency the design of the trash and recycling area concurs with the documents to insure entrepreneurial trash pickup for the bins on the street 5 building signage will be reviewed to the mission bay signage master plan 6 the project shall comply with the mission bay gold it addresses the extensive noise and when and what time of the day to dovetail on that the Development Team meets with the ike staff to talk about the hours of operation 8 the developer should design the outer childrens play area and finally, the developer will define the security of the residential, commercial and car share Parking Spaces.

Id like to introduce some team members that are here dan solomon youve met in addition to dan we also have Malcolm Harris from solomon and stephen and we have Christopher Roach and John Springer from studio, we have a. D. Deny and claire from t n d c and various consultants that are working on the professional services thank you. Thank you. Okay first, well see if we have any speaker cards. I have for corin woods. Good afternoon irregular commissioners im kroerdz i chair the mission bay cca were very supportive of this project we like it a lot, in fact, one the comments that was made at the last meeting we get the best architecture on the Affordable Housing projects and were very pleased with this and pleased with the program were also happy that our concerns that were mentioned at the last meeting are being addressed in the conditions of the approval i hadnt thought of that im glad to see interest is going to be car share space as part of the parking with 25 percent parking ratio it is really good if people have car share on site to be able to use for a car although were working on new transit groups for the neighborhood with mta all in all we like it and look forward to having is it built thank you. Thank you. Are there any other speakers that would like to come up . Okay Public Comment is closed. On this item commissioners do have questions or comments. I do commissioner bustos. Im not sure you may have gotten the breakdown whats the breakdown of the bedrooms in those units . There are 1, 2, 3 bedroom units at the development. Do we know sorts of one bedrooms how many or 3 bedrooms. I dont off the top of my head okay. It is about 1 3rd, 1 3rd, 1 3rd. So when we look at the car share process for that with the space whats the process how do the attendance how are they able to assess that Car Share Program. Im going to ask the clearing not a one for one parking ratio theres a lottery different methods but ill call the developers up. You know how we are on parking. Im a. D. Deny with t n d c your specifically care about how were working the car share. In my opinion theres not enough parking i want to know if you have a family that is in one the 3 bedroom units how they get to access the car share. There are a couple of Car Share Programs in the city we reached out to them in the initial rvp with inform dedicated spaces theyll state with on space theres a lot in mission bay currently were allocating two spaces go to two spaces that goes to one to support two and bum up to two at this point but well it will serve the whole neighborhood open to everybody in the building as well as the entire neighborhood and access to the other car share spaces in the neighborhood. Ill have a problem with that you know, like i said, were already not enough parking spots if you w have two dedicated parking spots that takes away from the opportunity for the tenants this spot is for decreases the chance arrest we can look at that our first task was to work with the established groups and work elsewhere in the city to see if they have another models we can eye. If you have families or parents or kids it is you know they need a way they need a parking spot a way to get around are the parking spots designated for the larger units versus the single or one bedroom. Assuming the larger like two or three bedrooms have families were going trying to support. Will they have first dibs on those spots. So how weve operated in the past we have a lottery for the spaces so we dont necessarily reserve them for you the larger families but not necessarily cant look at that. I would suggest if a person in a one bedroom a Single Person or couple it is a lot easy to ride a bike so; right . Hundred and 39 so it is easy for them to get on a bicycle but for families sometimes multi generations folks living in the united so grandparents and grandkids its harder to get a bike to go Grocery Shopping ill hope we look at that to make sure those in the larger units that most likely will house families they get first dibs on some of those spaces for the cars. Uhhuh. Im not sure how can we do that i mean that is something to talk about online or offline and you know having access to car shares similar to the what rec and park the they instituted a process that made people go online for a permit to use the parks and my concern if the person if it is a Single Parents not 27 to spare; right . Im not sure how much the Car Share Program works and how much were charging people were assuming that is access to get it; right . You know how to use it online when we look at things like this we need to look at how it works for an individual or family to be able to participate and take advantage of some of the things so im not sure how do we followup on this stuff but maybe you know ms. Sims or someone what report out basically, im thinking about the spaces for the car share for larger unites for families because it makes sense theyre probably going to need it the most and how do people within the unit use the car share spaces im not interested if you go out but people that live in that particular development having the access to the spaces so if we could report back on this id appreciate that. Thank you. Commissioner singh. June 2016 with the Gap Financing telling me what how much is the gap and how much financing were looking at. Thats what well the team will be working on for the next several months to finalize the financial plan, finalize any Additional Resources that be are coming in to the development and finalize the ticketing then well know what the gap is. Is it going to be ground or alone. Oh, alone uhhuh. Thank you. I have a couple of questions on the Affordable Housing units i know we dont have a neighborhood Preference Program yet but is it appropriate to ask the executive director to give us some background on what might be you know an opportunity for the commission to consider a neighborhood preference for Affordable Housing . Sure commissioners within the context of the existing preferences that exist within the mission bay plan and the agreement as many of you may know the preferences that exist for affordable unit certificate of preference is at the top and to the extent that developments have not executed ground leases the ellis act because youre a legal separate entity from the city should you choose to adapted a neighborhood preference the board will report to planning the planning is doing an analysis and there will be a report in the fall you could do you want certainly preferences related to neighborhood preferences but theres a waterfall to create the harm new although this body oversees 21 thousand units a third are affordable with the master unit we need to harmonize the existing agreements our existing preferences which may be different from the city it is implementing we need the time to analyze it and like to report book to you to the extent that analysis is done by the time the permanent loan and the ground lewis lease comes back to you it could be in the waterfall preference. With respect to the ellis act evictions remedy preference my understanding of the data when the budget analyst recorded to the board of supervisors in the south of market area there was significant displacement due to ellis act evictions in the mission is another area i guess id like to have you might not have it today but information on you know how many folks are taking advantage, if you will, of that program so yes, sir. R yes. Theres a preference but the impacts would be because were talking about mission bay and then transbay i think that would be important. We can followup with data and jeff white occ project manager has additional fvndz. Good afternoon jeff what did they housing manager i checked hundred and 36 ellis act housing certificates issued and hundred and 36, 9 from folks in describe codes some from bruno heights. Do we have any tloins why interest are so few im pretty much there were thousands and thousands of victims. Those are the folks that went through the process getting the certificates so, yeah i dont have the why the answer to the why. Yeah. The malice that will give us a report. Thats correct. All right. Maybe we can do a followup okay my last question i know its early about the retail concepts but interested in finding what the retail concepts we might be looked at or the process will unfold whether groceries amendments to the groceries Grocery Stores anywhere here. I know the developer has been working with mission bay specification brokers and an entity that works with the Nonprofit Developers but foyer specification id like to call a. D. Deny doyle up here. I can show you the retail plans. Oh, great. Lets pull that back up so if you see the pink area on the bottom of the screen there. Were dividing into 9 possible spaces uhhuh. But the thinking is that the two on the ceda and on the nesdz will be combined to be 2 separate spaces those 4 spaces who be combined into two and the four in the middle will separate individual so the two on the south side are being schneider as restaurant that is the one well open as the restaurant and the outdoor seating overlooks the mission bay courtyard and the two on the ned are start for van ness so were, however, designing that space so could accommodate a restaurant in future years so if they vacate in 25 years it could be converted back to a restaurant space the four interior spaces will be designed to accommodate lighter restaurant use so not the large restaurant use about accommodate a waxer shop Something Like that it will accommodate that range of what youre seeing mission bay now from our conversation with the brokers they think the restaurant spaces may go into the, a r buildings and morality by the time it opens up were designing it to go either way. No Grocery Stores. No, its not designed as a grocery at this point. Through the chair if i may commissioner bustos as many of you may know the beacon place the ancestor Grocery Store for the neighborhood and a series of other market hall concepts under is a market hall being proposed further up Fourth Street across the street from Fourth Street a block up the street a food hall like a style and ill ask my colleague to talk about the mission bay specific and the proposed warriors market hall concept a few blocks south, temporary uses from food truck parks that are going in and this is our Senior Development specialist and the interim project manager. Good afternoon, commissioners im so project manager on mission bay so theres a math hall concept the director mentioned that is in the process of getting tenant improvement permits and theres the promoted worrying retail the Fourth Street corridor spaces are largely designed as smaller this total retail is 10 thousand square feet for your grocery tenants are looking larger spaces generally speaking and coordinated with the various brokers and agencies for the market rate projects to Court Reporter what that retail is were a grocery is not going to want an over saturation of use were working with an emerging Retail Market that is really trying to get a sense of the build out as the market improves weve been able to attract a boarder range of retail but at this point with the market hall concept that serves the folks on this south side of the channel and bread and butterer, if you will, Grocery Stores the safeway in that serving that market shed for this up to this point in time okay. All right. Then. Okay. Thank you. Those my questions anyone have a question on the design . Comments . Okay. Good . Okay do we have a mansion. It would be nice to have a motion.

Thank you. I dont have any more speaker cards. Okay questions commissioners . Yes. Commissioner mondejar. Questions. I want to ask the marketing requirements who would that be . Ask about that a you marketing requirement. Yes. Marketing requirements on one of our slides early outreach how does that work what are your plans. Im going to give the quick answer and go to jeff white weve gone through the process of remarketing the process and im sure some are coming before you in this project one month after the project closes on the final construction loan is developers is required to submit an early outreach plan that staff does an internal review and following that a marketing plan to staff and that plan gets vetted over time while the project is in construction by the time it comes around weve made sure that meets all the internal reminders and marketing to the widest scope of people to get certificate of preference to apply. When does this close again, after the closing of the project is slated to begin construction in theer part of next year and when the developer closes on the construction loan they have to summit the plan within one anyone month. The First Quarter of next year approximately. Thank you. Yes. Thank you. Good afternoon. Jeff white the project manager i want to follow up on your question so the marketing and early outreach pointing youre asking about maria from the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development presented in june essentially what were implementing now so we based on a lot of your feedback the occ has been working closely with the Mayors Office just to develop very clear protocol for how ocii early outreach and marketing is meant to be implemented and incorporated and documented into the agreement weve taken direction from the commission and essentially been implementing that i think you saw a fairly detailed version we further reif i understand and that version is what you saw in june. Thats what is being implemented. Yes. All right. And those are some of the things youre working on the counseling, the you know left turn landlord and the 5 or of a readiness agencies that the Mayors Office of housing has a memo of different agencies that developers can work with. Were going to get reports on that correct. Once we start that process after you know for example, this project after the construction loan closes that is the trigger so then well a month later we would expect to get the early outreach plan and report back after that okay. At that will be like a Quarterly Report a or at least we can ask the Mayors Office to report quarterly uhhuh. Okay. Thank you. Okay commissioner bustos. Yeah. So it goes back to the issue i raised a few times about a workshop how to prepare folks that are certificate of preference holders so i want to be able to say that this is a good thing for us to do so if we can work with stiff staff and well let you know one of the things that we are hoping ill say me is that people that lived in San Francisco should come back to San Francisco and so the certificate of preference holders are very important they were forced out didnt chose to leave forced out because of the redevelopment we want to fix what was wrong i have a great deserve so see those who have roots come back to San Francisco youll hear a lot of that so if we can somehow whatever we need to do that do that id like for us to do that theres a lot of projects coming down the pike so if we account get people into affordable units we can get people ready to be there so when the lottery happens they are prepared and well get them back so the next thing you, you have really good numbers regarding the sbe and w pe but similar to mr. Washingtons point you know one of the things that weve been asking staff is it would be great to get some sort of graphical information on the businesses the developers are using the reason i say that is because you know those programs were instituted to create a level of fairness and what happens or what were seeing what im seeing especially in the Mission District people are setting up shop with the disability e zip code you have businesses that do the great work they dont get the business to create a level of fairness you know people, companies and people provide Services Consulting companies and individuals they should be able to do that we should try to promote folks that are invested in the Community Get those opportunities to vie for those contracts; right . So some folks think to is another gold rush area theyll come in and get rich yet people are here for a long time one of the things ive asked some sort of bio gravel as you get the numbers ask the developers to get the information about who those contractors are were saying it is great whats behind the numbers we as a staff and commission and as a city let developers know that we want this to be fair for people who are invested here for a long time if we make it a priority then the developers will make it a priority so thats the power in the leverage we have; right . Again going back to try to make right what was wrong and we have an opportunity to do that so if somehow we can get that send it out as an email to the commission and we get a report but project specific. Bio gravel. Some information on folks and maybe in the power point if youd like that screen. So people know what were looking at for. Maybe speak to getting the commissioners that information. I just want to echo the sentiment weve heard in the past and echo that sentiment to the developers in terms of looking at San Francisco businesses and the importance to the commission and to the agency level of sb participation that is San Francisco m b e is important and the contractors on exhibit c to the extent we get Additional Information well do with that the developers theres a short biographical and 89 excuse me. Yes. Commissioner singh. Do you you know how many we are on the certificate of preference holders list. How many certificate of preference holders will be living in this building. Now how many is going to be there. I did not know the number of certificate of preference offhand but the project manager jeff white may know. I cant remember the total numbers. Sorry i dont have that it was approximately, six hundred and 70 that are active and that are you know on our the current list what weve been building at 1184 street we ended at 11 or 12 applied and some fell out we ended up with 6 that were housed out of the 9 did Units Available yeah. Do we notify them what is available. Pardon me. Do we notify them. I didnt thats what were implementing and part of the marketing process. Okay. Thank you. Through the chair commissioner singh jeff white was correct approximately as of 2013 and new data there were 6 hundred and 65 active cop holders on the list as you recall when mrs. Benjamin from oewd presented the information as part of the cop and affirm marketing to find new companies holders as you recall commissioners we engage under the former agency a consulate to refresh that list to make sure our list was correct theres a push to finds additional new active certificate of preference hollers and to make sure that every single from the ongoing workshops and the counteragency that are happening quarterly from sf d. C. To register readiness and the targeted outreach to certificate of preference holders and increase that active certificate list. Okay. Thank you. I have a question similar to the question i asked on the other item on motorbike i know that is early but every time i read this it sound great and then the added feature there is retail and it seems like San Francisco is apparently believed to be able to sustain a lot of retail my interest to make sure that the retail is offered and the right price point for a diversity so do we know how it will unfold arrest the related california has been working on the transbay block 8 i want to call the Vice President to address your question. Okay. Good afternoon Vice President with related your question scholz is weve been working on this actually over the last few months loousht the marketing to see what is available in addition, we have a requirement in our d da to provide the ocii body the a report for the Market Conditions and specifically to the grocery so weve hired a Research Specialists by the donate of analytic to talk about the types of facilities weve been supported in the area theyve conducted a study well share with ocii in the next day or two and actually team up with sort of the model a model for what type of tenants will be able to occupy the grocery and the ground floor were studying to figure out what that is being to activate the lane or that exists within the project there was not a great amount of retail but as you pointed out madam chair rosales it is actually important to be able to activate the area the study was focused on trading joes and organic like the whole foods and up scale such as a molly stone and independent they looked at the market share what would be attractive. What kind of revenues by the population and the market share per ive tussle have the tools the tenants will use to generate on a weekly b. A. s basis well share that with ocii the short answer were not decided and sharing our research with ocii over the next few months as this thing develops obviously the project is still yet to start the project it is a fairly large project that is ongoing it is difficult to get a tenant to commit that earlier for any of the retail space, however, were continuing to study it and i object to give us updates. And the only other question i have was one of timing am i maybe this is a question im not sure to whom it deals with the two projects back to back on the same calendar it is different areas but similar subject Affordable Housing and from what i can tell from the construction schedule am i reading this right theyre both to be completed around the same time in 2018. What you is a two. The transbay and mission bay. I cant speak to the mission bay. The 2018 and the complete in january 2018 this one. I can say that the transbay affordable project is slated to start this coming january and related t n d credit is supposed to have it done two years later reason i raise it i think this is into so the marketing question and excuseme. Insuring that there is enough notice that people who can qualify for the incentives we can reach out to them maybe we should look at the cooperation on marketing i dont know what the contrasts will be it seems to me if things come online the target populations are similar even in two different areas of the city theyre both you know south of market pretty much have we ever cropped the project the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development is rolling out rue out dalai. Well have a party what that happens laughter please invite me. laughter . Look at the calendar. So i think there is coordination the idea that you know people that are interested in Affordable Housing they registration with dalai and hfa as projects come out theyll be notified and have an opportunity to apply. Dalai is it not spring of 2016 . You im hearing it is early 2016. Homeownership first then the roll out then rental of which those are rental our point madam chair rosales is welltaken the projects are finishing in most of each other and people will be applying theyre both at 50 percent ami and then as you may know the related project as 70 Developers Fully subsidize the bmr from 40 to 50 percent ami thats hundred and 50 unions and then another in essence hundred and 50 units 3 hundred units in the protocol right there people will be applying and it is generally, the same income level so a coordination in market value efforts through tools or otherwise, it will be important so people dont have to keep politically e applying and the template procedures and our suggestions to make sure there is not a difficult hurdle for people to qualify for in particular building and not qualify in the other using the same income credit, etc. Thats exactly right it goes to the question it commissioner singh raised about the certificate of preference holders that make it i think we have a golden opportunity to you know achieve as much success with those two units and projects as we can because everything i hear about the lottery ive said this many times it is a lottery that set people up frankly in my opinion for disappoint we cant manage everyones expectations but have the ability to do so it is fair otherwise poem say why bother it is my humble opinion. Yeah. If we can coordinate it would be great. And any other projects that the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development has got we cant track them all it would be great. Okay yes. I dont know who to address this to but maybe to tiffany or jeff it would be great to have a presentation a general presentation of all the projects going on and what their finishing and the outreach and the update maybe you know so those two are next to each other because we receive our presentations project per project and nice to get a map on whats happening in the mission bay and transbay to get an idea of the Grocery Stores is theyre going to be a pharmacy and wheres the forewent a sense are we say that possible to do that. Ill take a stab at that we have the annual report we provided about a month ago and that is actually got a lot of great data and maps so is or it is in sections we can get a sense the predevelopment and what is the in construction so the dates are all the there that can be tracked youve seen our historic pipeline we try to get it out quarterly so this give us a spreadsheet format thats a good resource. I was at the ocii office it was great to see the you know visible we could see this is whats happening in transbay and mission bay you know the shipyard and what retail outlets or Retail Stores radio being proposed when it is going to be finishing it is sort of giving us a sense were so focused project by project and that would be nice you know were working on the Retail Consultants to help them so what eventually is it troekz or Something Else schedule that put that in our calendar what would be great your looking at tiffany. We spent two months in june getting the big picture and the 21 thousand affordable units of which 7 thousand are affordable and the inclusionary or the stand alone i think we have that big picture and part of the although the board just approved our budget in july well be review as part of our rock the b second half of the budget year ill suggest as part of the expenditures and the pragmatic work a mid year look in essence mid bucket look at where we are the pragmatic your sphere were focused on the 3 multi year major approved projects to honor the commenting commitments in the mid year recognized payment schedules weve review where we are. Where we are. In addition obviously how Many Companies holders get approved are modifying in and certificate of preference that would be. Certainly on a quarterly basis the detailed look on the deep dive in the marketing and the cop and not much as changed 2, 3, 4 a month but certainly on the equally and yearly the project is complete and absolutely what happened how the we fair .

As 318 the meeting is adjourned thank you p i have 2 job titles. Im manager of the tour program as well as i am the historyian of city hall. This building is multifaceted to say the very least its a Municipal Building that operates the city and county of San Francisco. This building was a dream that became a reality of a man by the name of james junior elected mayor of San Francisco in 1912. He didnt have a city hall because it was destroyed in the earth wake of 1906. Construction began in april of 1913. In december 1915, the building was complete. It opened its doors in january 1916. Its a wonderful experience to come to a building built like this. The building is built as a palace. Not for a king or queen. Its built for all people. This building is beautiful art. Those are architecture at the time when city hall was built, San Francisco had an enormous french population. Therefore building a palace in the art tradition is not unusual. Jimmie was an incredible individual he knew that San Francisco had to regain its place in the world. He decided to have the tallest dome built in the United States. Its now stands 307 feet 6 inches from the ground 40 feet taller than the United States capital. You could spend days going around the building and finding something new. The embellishment, the carvings, it represents commerce, navigation, all of the things that San Francisco is famous for. The wood you see in the board of supervisors chambers is oak and all hand carved on site. Interesting thing about the oak is there isnt anymore in the entire world. The floors in china was cleard and never replanted. If you look up at the seceiling you would believe thats hand kof carved out of wood and it is a cast plaster sealing and the only spanish design in an arts building. There are no records about how many people worked on this building. The workman who worked on this building did not all speak the same language. And what happened was the person working next to the other person respected a skill a skill that was so wonderful that we have this masterpiece to show the world today. Hello, welcome to the meet your District Supervisor. Im Nona Melkonian and were here with supervisor katy tang for supervisor 4 which includes central and outer sunset. Supervisor tang was appointed by mayor ed lee to serve as district 4 representative replacing previous supervisor carmen chu after she was appointed assessor reporter that same month. Before her appointment she served as legislative aide to supervisor chiu. Today youll get to know her and the issues facing the city. Welcome, supervisor. Thank you for join using us. Thank you for having me. Lets start with a little about your background. Where you grew up, went to school and what kind of jobs you had in the past. Sure, i grew up in the sunset district. Still live there. Spent about 20 years living in the sunset district and just am so proud to be able to represent the district that i grew up in and where my parents still live. I had gone through the Public Education system and went to neighborhood schools throughout the sunset district. So, had gone to Francis Scott key elementary school, hoover middle school, Lowell High School and am just so proud to be able to come back full circle to support a lot of those schools that i went to and be part of that community in a very integral way. So, you spent most of your life in San Francisco. Why did you choose to live in the city . Well, first of all, my parents decided to move us to the sunset district because they really wanted my brother and i to have a really good and safe r growing up. There were a lot of children and families in the sunset district and i think they felt like it would be the best environment for us to grow up. So, we ended up staying out there and fell in love with it and have a lot of pride after especially working for the sunset district as the electricity i have aide to supervisor chiu for over five years. And working with very intimately with a lot of community members, the merchants, our local residents who have, you know, interest in things such as Public Safety or Public Transportation, our school communities, our parks and play grounds, just really been such a wonderful experience working with them. So, i just really enjoyed that Work Experience as well as my own experience growing up there. How has your experience as aide to supervisor chiu prepared you for the board of supervisors . I think that i probably dont have a learning curve on having worked in the district so long and having grown up there. I think that its been really beneficial knowing who to go to to ask certain questions, or, you know, learning how to read pieces of legislation, for example, knowing what the issues are that the city has faced. I think that those have all been really helpful experiences during this transition. What motivated you to get involved in politics . Ive always wanted to be involved in whichever community im in. For example, what ix in school i was in Student Government and, so, working in city hall was one of my first jobs, actually, out of college. And, so, i have been doing i have been working at city hall for over six years now and i just feel very much pride in working for the city that i live in. Where do you place yourself on the political spectrum, are you progressive, centrist, or more on the conservative side . I think im probably more of a moderate person. I think that our district, again, lots of families and children, seniors, immigrant community, and i think that we tend to be more classified as, you know, fiscally responsible, i would say. And, again, having my experience in working for the mayors budget office, for example, prior to working for the board of supervisors, i think that gave me a really great background in terms of how the city works, how the citys budget is put together. And those really that experience has really influenced my decisionmaking process. And speaking of the citys budget, the city just enacted a twoyear budget and it seems the city is always dealing with complicated issues including whether or not to raise taxes and fees. How will you approach these tough choices . I think that when we talk about raising fees or taxes, we always have to come at it from a very balanced approach. We have a lot of homeownerses, we have a lot of tenants in the city. And, so, again balance is really key. I think we also have to approach the budget and some tough fiscal issues looking at the citywide budget as a whole and not just looking at specific sectors or issue areas that we real have i to look at the citys financial standing as a whole for the long term. Thats really important and thats definitely what drives a lot of my decisionmaking process. And i think its also tougher in San Francisco because we really are held to a very High Standard where we have to balance the budget every single fiscal year. We cannot run into a deficit in the new fiscal year. We cannot print more money. We are held to a High Standard by our charter and, so, i think thats why these tough decisions are made every year rent. What other issues do you feel are facing San Francisco . I think for San Francisco and also elsewhere, one of the biggest issues right now is really how do we ~ attract Economic Development and spur job creation. And those are two things that really go hand in hand and really is what makes the city vibrant and a place where people want to live and can afford to live. And i think that keeping those citywide goals in mind, to really want to try to also make sure that locally we support our Small Businesses and all merchants, for example, give economic benefits and help create jobs as well. What are your thoughts on the citys Economic Development . Do you feel were on the right track . I think were on a very exciting time right now in San Francisco where we have a lot of energy in terms of businesses and especially the Tech Industry wanting to locate in San Francisco and thats something that we really havent seen as much in the past after the dotcom boom. And, so, we are in a very exciting time and we really see a transformation going on in our city because of that. What would you like to see change about the citys approach to developing its economy . I think that really depends on the changing times. And there isnt sort of one solution for the entire city. It real i depends on kind of what the dynamics are going on with the economy as a whole in the region. Not just looking at San Francisco, but really as a regional body. Sometimes district issues are different than zvi issues. What do you feel are some of the biggest issues facing your district . ~ city i think because we have a lot of children, families, seniors in our district, they care a lot about your quality of life issues, right. And its the reason why People Choose to live there. They want to make sure that your streets are repaved, that our potholes are filled, that Public Transportation works for you, that, you know, your parks and play grounds are safe for your children to play in, students can go to local schools. I think that those are all important issues facing district 4 and will continue to. How have you balanced the needs of your district versus the needs of the city as a whole . I think that as a District Supervisor, we play that balancing act every single day in our jobs. And we respond to all of the constituent needs, whether they doll us, whether they email us or talk to us in person about a problem, we try to sort of bridge the resources that are in the city and help connect them with whichever department it is they might need to be connected with to resolve their issue. ~ but also at the same time we are citywide representatives and we vote on legislation every week that impact everyone in the entire city. I think that when we take those votes, for example, we keep our district interests in mind and how they might want us to best represent them on citywide issues. You mentioned transportation and muni earlier. What do you see about transportation for your constituents, is there enough needed service . I think especially given the fact the sunset district is located so far from the central portion of the city, that transportation is difficult for them. And as you know, there are some issues with switch backs for example on muni and folks feeling like, you know, they dont have adequate service down to the end of the line. So, i have worked with mta and were trying to figure out solutions to address that. But i think overall our residents really just want to make sure that they can get from where they need to go from the sunset district or back home via Public Transportation. What about parking and traffic . I think that the sunset district typically has a little bit more pricing than some other districts. There are always Pedestrian Safety issues we have to watch out for. Our district has boulevard, we have sunset boulevard. We were also have 19th avenue and great highway. And, so, those are actually state highways that except for sunset boulevard, but the three are state highways that run through our district. And, so, when you have that, we have seen some fatalities along some of those corridors and, so, we work very closely with the state agency, our local agencies to see what sort of pedestrian improvements can be made to help make it more safe for feev l. So, for example, maybe it means that we install more pedestrian countdown signals or install sidewalk build outs so that we can shorten the distance for pedestrians to cross the streets. Or lowering of speed limits. So, all of those things we try to look at comprehensively throughout the district to people can travel safely whether youre a pedestrian, cyclist or driver. Speaking of safety, what are your thoughts on how the city is dealing with crime, especially in your district and how do you think the Police Department is doing . We work very closely with our local Police Station which is terraville Police Station. We have Community Groups in the sunset. They have formed out of response to concern of Public Safety in the neighborhood and i think that generally speaking the sunset district has lower crime levels than many of the other parts of the city. However, because we are bordering ocean beach and Golden Gate Park, we do have pockets of problem areas. And, so, our neighbors are the first to alert us and the Police Station when there are issues and the police has been very responsive to that. What kind of issues are you having with ocean beach or Golden Gate Park . I think that because its so far from the center of the city and because there is so much open space, we do see a lot of encampments in those areas. Some neighbors express issues with safety and feeling safe in their neighborhood and, so, they have worked very closely with our terraville station to make sure they monitor those regularly. What are your thoughts on the citys Economic Development . So, in terms of Economic Development, i think our city is in a very, again, exciting time right now where we are able to attract a lot of businesses who want to locate here in San Francisco. You know, we have seen a recent wave of Technology Companies that have located here in our Downtown Core area and its really transformed our neighborhoods. And i think that as we continue to keep drawing talent and those kind of companies that are citys economic state will continue to grow. Speaking of growth in our city, how do you feel about the role of the warriors coming to San Francisco and the plans for the new stadium . So, the warriors and the plan for the new stadium, you know, the project approvals and the Environmental Review report will actually have to go through the board of supervisors. So, ill have to make my decision then. But the prospect of Something Like that would be very exciting for the city, i think, not only as an economic engine but also in terms of San Franciscos cultural history. To a degree, do you feel the city should subsidize the team . I think that negotiations are still to be sorted out and i think that all of that is in the works. But its something that ill pay close attention to. What would you like to see change in the citys approach to developing its economy . You know, i think that San Francisco is a very creative city and we tend to be on the cutting edge of issues, right . And i think that to that extent of our administration and our various departments such as the office of economic and Work Force Development have always thought of creative approach he that might be new for the region to, for example, attract new businesses or, you know, other sorts of financing mechanisms. And i think that we will continue to do that in San Francisco. Well, are there any other issues that you plan to concentrate on throughout your term as supervisor . Yes, i believe that having worked, you know, for many years in the district 4 office and now as supervisor, over time we have felt that, you know, many times we are very reactive to a lot of the problems that are presented our way and i want to really make sure that during my term i would love to do some longterm planning for the district to make sure that we think maybe 5, 10, 15 years out and think ahead, you know, now and start the planning work and laying the foundation for things we want to do in the future. What are some of your ideas . I will be engaging in a Community Process where we focus on some of our key issue areas that we care a lot about in the district and working with them to kind of layout the groundwork for what we envision for our district in the future.
