Transcripts For SFGTV Government Access Programming 20240714

Through the budget process to do so. I do want to highlight that not only would we be responsible for buying the toilet itself, but we would also need to consider the infrastructure expense at that location and Maintenance Services in addition to make sure that the toilets stay in good working condition. For the advertising kiosk, this program is essentially an exchange, so in exchange for public kiosks, we agree to allow for advertising on the public rightofway. In the newly proposed agreement, we would have 44 traditional kiosks in the new design with you with paper advertising like we do today. 70 of these kiosks would be digital, and one of every eight digital spots is reserved for public purpose. Were also proposing in this agreement to have 15 interactive kiosks, and that programming can be done by the city and promote wayfinding and any other Public Service announcement the city wishes to display. There will also be 20 proposed vending kiosks, and these vending kiosks can be used by local businesses as kind of a less expensive option to a more traditional brickandmortar presence. Decaux has committed that it will develop a policy that will govern the public space as well as policy that would determine leasing for the advertising on the kiosks, and we would return to the board for approval on that policy. Just a brief mention of the financial contributions in this contract. Inkind benefits can include Capital Investments in the toilets and kiosk and maintenance and monitoring, which is worth about 161. 5 million over the course of the contract. Decaux is committed to a onetime fee of 7 million. It would provide a revenue stream kind of similar to what the p. U. C. And other properties have today. A total benefit that weve calculated is 165. 13 million. Just like to talk briefly about the design process. Our goals were to find a design that was timeless, modern, and ambitious, consistent with the policy currently both at Historic Preservation commission and the arts commission, who both reviewed and approved this design. We had a design competition. 12 local firms proposed design. We had a jury panel of design experts determine three finalists. We had an extensive Outreach Campaign that included various media outlets. We displayed at the public library, at u. S. Plaza, we did outreach to Additional Community groups and received more than 200 responses to the various proposed design. When we finally went for review and approval, our design was unanimously approved by civic design, arts commission, and Historic Preservation. These are a couple of the views of the newly proposed design from various perspectives, and we do have a representative here today if youre interested in talking about urban design. As you can see, the approach is very different than the parisian style of our current toilets. Its a much more forward thinking design. Its very modern, very rounded, just a different aesthetic than what weve done before. This gives you a view of what a little vending kiosk might look like out on the street. Its similar to how some of the new stand kiosks are in the current agreement, where they have a little more that opens up, and displays on the little doors. Thats the end of my presentation, and im happy to take any questions. Chair fewer colleagues, questions, comments . Can we have a b. L. A. Report, please . Supervisor peskin i just wanted to thank carolyn at public works for her work on this, along with miss dawson. Chair fewer ditto. Yes. This resolution approves the 21. 5year contract between the city and j. C. Decaux. Under the contract, j. C. Decaux would have the right to operate 114 advertising kiosks in exchange for operating the Public Toilet program which has been described here. We provide estimates on page 8 of our report. Over this 21. 5year term, we estimate the cost to the city would be about 7 million. Chair fewer thank you very mu much. And we recommend approval. Chair fewer i have one question. I see on page 7 , that it says each toilet shall be operational 24 hours a day unless required by the director. Will these toilets be operational 24 hours a day . So many of them are operational 24 hours a day. The only ones that arent are where we have provided attendant services because were concerned with afterhour activity in the area. So many of them are open 24 hours. I think our intention here is to continue the practice that weve presented today, continuing to working with the board on what these hours should be. Many of these will continue to be 24, but we may mutually decide it makes sense for the Public Safety to shut some of them in the nighttime hours to make sure the facilities are safe. Chair fewer so my next question in this is in this agreement, j. C. Decaux is paying for staffing at these. Yes, at 11 locations. Chair fewer my question is, are they just paying for staffing for 24 hours a day or 24 hours a day . Right now, its 10 or 11 hours a day at this point in time. We certainly can adjust them, but their contract gives them an hourly total equipment. So if we decide we can shorten hours some places and lengthen hours in others, thats something we can do. Chair fewer is it based on a certain number of hours a day . Yes. Its based on 11 locations, ten hours a day. Chair fewer and what are the size of the new toilets and kiosks . Theyre a little bigger. Chair fewer the toilets and the kiosk . No, the kiosks are the same size, but the toilets are taller. Chair fewer are they taking up more surface area . They are a little bit wider, so we are mindful that some areas that have a tighter sidewalk location, we might need to adjust it a few feet in either direction just to ensure that everyone is safe. Chair fewer and do we have a photograph of this new toilet . We do have one upstairs, but we didnt bring it this time. Chair fewer thats okay if you dont have it. I just thought the public would like to see it. But i see that we have an agreement here, and colleagues, lets open this up for Public Comment first. Are there any members of the public that would like to comment on item number two . Good morning, supervisors. Good to see you again. I am the c. E. O. Of urban alchemies. We have been provide the practitioners at all of the Public Toilets. I just really wanted to i think my main purpose is coming today is to provide our support for this contract. Not just of course because we stabbed to stand to benefit as the practitioner staffing this toilet, but really wanted to share my experience in working with j. C. Decaux. As you know, ive been working with the nonprofit field in over 20 years in bayview and the city. Its really rare that we have someone reach out to us and try to partner with us. I know that j. C. Decaux has hired some of our practitioners after theyve moved on. I know that francois has mentored me, and i think its raised the bar, and i think our relationship with j. C. Decaux has been really important in terms of service. Them knowing their staff members, being able to have a relationship to call them to repair the toilets, and so the last thing i just wanted to say, we understand this. Most importantly, this is a crisis of homelessness in San Francisco and really across the country, but particularly on the west coast. And i think the most important thing is weve been able to really put our Heads Together and think critically about what the Services Mean to not only the Homeless Population and the Health Population in friSan Francisco, but the entire population in San Francisco and the quality of life. Chair fewer thank you. Next speaker. Good morning. My name is harvey turner, and i started working by attending these public rest rooms in 2016, and now im a supervisor for those same toilets, and i would like to say that j. C. Decaux has been a tremendous help in me some developing relationships with them. Im a longterm offender, so these 11 kiosks that we monitor has created a great opportunity for people like me coming out of incarceration and back into the workforce. Theyre always there if we need repairs, as well as deescalation in those areas that we monitor the rest rooms in. Im in support of them just as much as they have supported me, and i hope that we can continue to grow this relationship, not only in the 11 rest rooms that we attend today, but im hoping we can attend the existing 14 so they wont be as troubled. When we first starts, these rest rooms were populated by Homeless People going in and just taking up residence in there, but since weve been there, theres been a tremendous change in those areas. Im truly grateful for d. J. Decaux. Im tree j. C. Decaux, and im truly grateful for the opportunity to be in the workforce and the opportunities that ive been given. Thank you. Chair fewer thank you. Next speaker, please. Hello. Im sandy garcia. I was one of the system monitors. We have a good relation with decaux. So and also, ive been outside. I see how many people use this toilet, and how they make the city look good. We had tourists that were around. Theyre like man, these toilets are really good. Were the only city that provided those kind of toilets for me, so i i really say thank you for j. C. Decauxs opportunity for give it to me, and thank you for approving it. Chair fewer thank you. Next speaker, please. J. C. Decaux have been very instrumental on allowing us to make a connection with the community, for a lot of Homeless Individuals thats out there that have been controlling the environment where the j. C. Decaux locations are out there. It also helps us to support the tourists that come from Different Countries to feel safe when they want to use the rest room because in the locations, a lot of restaurants and Different Companies dont allow tourists to come in and use the rest rooms, so j. C. Decaux has been very supportive of that, and my whole organization is very grateful. Chair fewer thank you. Next speaker. Good morning. My name is mike, and im with teamsters local 386. Im part of the team that originally negotiated j. C. Decaux. Just real quickly, agreements do include fully paid Teamster Health and welfare. Weve had a very strong and professional relationship with j. C. Decaux. I do want to thank all parties that were involved in getting the harmony language in there, and their professionalness, and with that, im in support. Chair fewer thank you. Any other Public Comment . Public comment is now closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer i make a motion to accept the proposed amend. Can i do that without objection . Thank you very much. [gavel]. Chair fewer and i would like to make a motion to move this to the full board with a positive recommendation as amended. Thank you very much. Clerk madam clerk, the amendment is just to the legislation itself, but the full contract can be recommended to the board. Chair fewer thank you very much. [gavel]. Chair fewer madam clerk, can you call item 4. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer thank you very much. I believe we have amanda freed here from the treasurer and tax collectors office. Good morning, chair, supervisor mandelman. Amanda freed with the office of the treasurer and tax collector. Im here this morning to present for your approval a resolution that will extend our service and maintenance contract with manatron. The proposed resolution would extend the Software Service and Maintenance Agreement for five years to a total term of 2024. It also includes an additional four dp fouryear option to extend. Im happy to answer any questions you might have. Chair fewer could i have a b. L. A. Report, please. This resolution approves an extension of an existing software Maintenance Agreement with manatron. It extends it through 2023, which is why its subject info inform to board of supervisors approval. And we recommend approval. Chair fewer thank you very much. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public like to comment on item 4 . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer i make a motion to move this to the full board with a positive recommendation. [gavel]. Chair fewer madam clerk, please read item five. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer thank you very much. And it is lee levinson that we have here . Yes. Chair fewer okay. And is mark daina here . Yes. Chair fewer youre the b. A. R. T. Manager . Yes. Chair fewer okay. You may start. Thank you, supervisor. I am lee levinson. We jointly maintain stations, and this item before you is an important Capital Project related to canopies above escalators in those stations, and those canopies are to keep those escalators safe and reduce the maintenance costs due to weather. The funding source, this is an agreement to share the costs equally with b. A. R. T. The estimated cost is in the neighborhood of 90 million, so this would authorize 45 million to come from general Obligation Bond funding from the 500 million bond issuance that was authorized in 2014, and we look for your support for this and are here to answer any questions. Thank you. Supervisor mandelman madam chair . So i get the importance of these canopies and doing something to protect the escalators from the elements is important, and everyones very frustrated when these escalators are not working, so im hoping in the decades to come, with the canopies, well have these escalators working more often. But as i was looking at this, i was struck by the price tag. 90 million for canopies. I think its a total of 21, so that breaks down to Something Like in the neighborhood of 5 million for a fancy tent, it seems like. Why is it so expensive to build these canopies . Well, i think i will ask mark daina to come forward as being closest to the project construction. Good morning. Thank you for having me. Mark daina, project for b. A. R. T. Im the project supervisor on the escalator contracts. The original estimate that we had was based on the two pilot canopies that we recently completed. We got with the economy of scale and the escalation. Literally, that was the price of something similar. In the meantime, Market Conditions have changed. Its harder to get contractors interested in public works projects right now. Were getting less proposals on our contracts. The cost estimates that our consultants are providing are showing that the price is increasing overall for all materials and for the services that were obtaining. Theyre a specialized canopy. If youve seen the two pilot canopies that weve constructed, the ceiling is kind of like a floating cloud. It was a design that we worked with the city in developing. Theyre a little bit different than the ones in oakland. They are a little bit different materials. They are fiber reinforced plastic ceiling. Its hard to do work in the city streets. The Public Protection safety aspect is very important to us and the city. A lot of things go into this. We the Market Conditions being as they are, we would like to have this in place. We are hoping well get a lower price when we get the bids, but when we get the bids, if they are much higher than what the original estimates were, we would have a hard time being able to fund and award right away. Supervisor mandelman were the original estimates less than this 90 million . The original was 60 million for supervisor mandelman and how much were the two canopies that were already done . They were approximately 2. 3 million each, and that was the Construction Costs, so the construction overall was like 4 a little over 4. 5 million. Supervisor mandelman huh. And just how whats the breakdown of labor versus materials versus design kind of costs in a contract like that . Generally, the labor, depending on the type of material, but usually labor and materials are pretty close. Its been pretty close, depending on sometimes the materials are, you know, 60 of the costs, but, you know, like, for the ceiling that were talking about, lets say. And then, some of the Specialized Labor that goes into, like, for electricians in our systems that need to be in place, that drives our labor costs up. Supervisor mandelman and how much do we think were saving by doing these projects . Well, the project is protected by code. When we install a new escalator, we have to protect them. If we dont, if were not able to get a contract awarded, it would be hard to get our wed have to get a variance to put our escalators in and wait to get the canopies constructed in the future, and im not sure we could get that variance. It really affects a lot of our projects here, so supervisor mandelman thank you. Chair fewer so i understand that the we have to have the canopies that were required to by code. But what exactly is required by code . Because what ive heard from you is theres a certain design element, the materials. What what is this exactly to code or is this going beyond what the code actually requires . The code requires we protect the investment. You can make a roof wider without the walls, so theres a certain angle required for the rainfall, so if your roof was wider, lets say, to protect your escalator, you could do Something Like that. If you made if the roof was smaller side, then your walls have to do more of the protection. The top of these walls are open if youve seen these canopies, the walls are open the top of the walls. Chair fewer so can you provide for us today a photo of the canopy that you are designing to put over these escalators . I dont believe i have one. Chair fewer okay. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Are there any members of the public that would like to comment on this item . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer do we have a b. L. A. Report on this . Thank you. Yes. This resolution approves a Funding Agreement between m. T. A. And b. A. R. T. Has has been discussed. We show the table on page 21 of our report. The total budget is 91. 3 million. The citys share is 45 million, and in terms of the question, the share does include two canopies installed. Theres contingencies in this budget, separated out from the budget. The m. T. A. Share is proposition a bond, and we do recommend approval. Chair fewer okay. Thank you very much. I understand that part of this is retroactive, is that correct . Yes, thats right. Its retroactive to cover the two pilot projects at civic center and powell street. Chair fewer so colleagues, i am thinking that this is such a hefty amount of money that actually i would like to get more information on this. For example, what do they really look like, what is the guarantee on this, how long do they last, what is the maintenance for them . If other cities put these up, what are the other cities doing . How much are they saving . There is an issue of our escalators being clogged, those type of things, so id like to continue this item for one week. Id like a motion to continue this item for one week. Can i get that without objection . Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you. Chair fewer so id like to take out of or the items number 13. Madam clerk, can you please read item number 13. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer okay. Hello. Welcome. Could you please introduce yourself. Hi. Good morning, chair, members of the budget and finance subcommittee. My name is gloria wu. Im with the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development . And we would like to thank you for sponsoring this resolution . So the city through the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development had the opportunity to apply for a state grant for Construction Costs to for a Community Center in the richmond district. And our office, mohcd went through a procurement process, and we selected c. Y. C. C. Y. C. Is here today if theres any question. Due to the state process, they require us to have a board resolution to accept to apply for, accept the grant, along with their terms and conditions, as well as to expend the grant. Thats why were here today. Chair fewer thank you very much. There is no b. L. A. Report, and lets open this up for Public Comment. Are there any members of the public that would like to comment on this item . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. Id like to make a motion to move this to the board with a positive recommendation. If we can do that without objection, thank you very much. [gavel]. Chair fewer thank you very much. Thank you very much. Chair fewer madam clerk, can you please read item 6. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer thank you very much, and we have Kathy Widener here from the San Francisco international airport. Good morning, chair fewer, members of the committee. Kathy widener with the San Francisco international airport. The item before you seeks for a new contract with rilo corporation. The lease has a tenyear term with a minimum annual guarantee of 310,000. The proposed lease is the result of a competitive request for proposals with rilo management being the highest scoring proposer. This is a set aside lease opportunity which is intended to attract smaller businesses to Business Opportunities at the airport. The Budget Analysts Office has reviewed the lease and recommends approval, but i would be happy to answer any questions. Chair fewer thank you very much. Lets hear from the b. L. A. , please. We summarize the terms of these in table two, page 28 of our report. The tenant would pay the greater of either the minimum annual guarantee of 310,000 per year in the initial year or percentage rent. The airport does expect to gain percentage rent which would be higher through this lease, and we recommend approval. Chair fewer thank you very much, miss campbell. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public wish to comment on item number 6 . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer id like to take a motion to move this forward to the full board with a positive recommendation and we can do that without objection. [gavel]. Chair fewer madam clerk, would you please read item 7. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer hello. So please introduce yourself. Good morning, chair fewer and members of the committee. My name is michael hyams, im the public director for the s. F. Public utilities commission. This is a contract for Renewable Energy to be delivered during calendar years 2020 and 2021. For the benefit of the public, cleanpowersf is San Franciscos Community Choice agregation policy, adopted by the board of supervisors and the mayor that provides clean Power Services to the city and county of San Francisco . Cleanpowersf has been serving customers since may 2016 and completed citywide enrolment in the program in april of this year. All costs associated with the contract will be paid from cleanpowersf revenues and the total costs are within cleanpowersf contracts covering the contracted delivery period. This will help us serve the Significant Growth and customer demand resulting from our cleanpowersf enrollment efforts in the last year. With this, we predict well be able to meet its green target of 50 renewable target by 2020. The negotiated contract meets all other applicable conditions set by the board of supervisors for contract renewals for cleanpowersf, and im happy to answer any questions. Chair fewer thank you. Let me hear from the b. L. A. This resolution approves a twoyear contract between cleanpowersf and Southern California edison. Theres currently a oneyear contract with Southern California edison for the same product. The total cost over the term is 15. 8 million. This would come from sf revenues, and we recommend approve. Chair fewer thank you. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public wish to comment on item 7 . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer id like to accept a motion to move this to the full board with a positive recommendation. We can do that without objection. [gavel]. Chair fewer thank you. Madam clerk, please read item 8. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer thank you very much. And i believe we have a representative from supervisor safais office. Yes. Im very excited to be here today to talk about this amendment. Its to reflect a 1 million additional investment from the city to go towards the rehabilitation of two properties, 35 and 45 onondaga. This will improve the hvac, and the electricity so we can welcome in two incoming tenants, clinic by the bay and ar art span. We are very grateful for the mayor for this additional investment to allow this Capital Project to take place, and we look forward to a positive recommendation so we can welcome these two tenants into their longterm home. I am happy to answer any questions if necessary. Chair fewer thank you very much. Can we hear from the b. L. A. , please. The board of supervisors previously approved two leases between the nonprofit clinic by the bay for 35 onondaga, and art span for 25 onondaga. At that time, the city was going to contribute 410,000 for improvements to the building. Since that time, the improvements have been more expensive than originally contracted, so this is a request to increase the cost by 1 million to 1. 4 million, and the tenants would cover the rest of the costs. Chair fewer thank you very much. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public like to comment on item number 8 . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer so the b. L. A. Says this is a policy matter before the board. Id like to make a positive recommendation to move this i mean, move this to the board with a positive recommendation. Can we take that without objection . Thank you very much. [gavel]. Chair fewer madam clerk, can you please call item number 9 . [agenda item read]. Chair fewer thank you very much. I thought my speaker was going to be supervisor aaron peskin, but maybe not. Supervisor peskin im happy to make some comments, chair fewer. Chair fewer yeah, please. Supervisor peskin let me start out by saying that i have some comments prosecute supervis from supervisor stefani, but before i make those comments, i disclose that i have been a member of the south Bay Rowing Club since 1992, but i dont have a conflict as i have not been on the board of directors or an officer of the club and am situated as are hundreds of members of this club are. The club was established in 1873 and has been in the Current Location since 1938. It is open to the public as various days at various days of the week and complements the club next door door, the dolphin club. The new 25year lease will help defray Capital Improvements that will be extended to build out the womens locker room facility at the club. I encourage you, colleagues, if you ever want to see it, you are always welcome to come down. Jackie will regale with the terms of the lease, but i want to thank jackie and daina with the south Bay Rowing Club who have been having these conversations with several different members and finally recommending the Park Commission for recommending this lease to the full board of supervisors. Chair fewer thank you very much, and im assuming youre jackie. Yes, i am. Chair fewer will you introduce yourself. Supervisor peskin jackie, put that microphone right here. Good morning, supervisors. Im jackie with the rec and parks department, and im here to request your support for the approval of the south Bay Rowing Club lease, and then item 10, which is the Golden Gate Yacht Club lease. These provide recreation on and in the San Francisco bay. So as supervisor peskin mentioned, the south End Rowing Club is located at aquatic club, and that the club was established in 1873. I just also wanted to mention that some of the other offerings included, in addition to rowing and swimming include hand ball and running groups. The active Club Membership is very active, and the club is managed by volunteers in leadership and service positions, and i wanted to highlight the requirement of a membership switch for managing of the club such as planning for clubhouse and dock maintenance projects and for repairs. And also as supervisor peskin mentioned, in 2016, there was a Capital Improvement project that not only expanded and created the new womens locker room but also created a new workout room, as well, and these improvements would not have been possible without the strong membership base. I just wanted to show some photos of recreation in the bay and around the bay. In july, the waters about 58, and heres some photos from the annual alcatraz ininvitational event. As the supervisor mentioned, the clubhouse is open to the public for three days a week for a 10 Public Access fee. Day use visitors can use the facilities to change and shower for swim in the bay, and volunteers are present during those Public Access days and hours to greet the visitors and to give them a tour of the clubhouse and also to provide tips and information on swimming regarding the tides and the winds in the bay for safety. Any changes to the south end or dolphin club hours for access require department approval, and the department and south end has open communication regarding maintaining Public Access. Here are some of the other Services Available for the Public Visitors such as the hand ball courts and the workout room. The proposed lease terms, as the supervisor mentioned, the proposed term is 24 years, with one 24year option to extend at the citys discretion. We will be updating the boundaries of the premises per an m. O. U. That we have with sf port, so this will now include the entire dock and access view at via the hyde street pier. And maintenance will continue to be paid for by the premises with no cost to the city, and we will update the language in the lease. Thank you very much. Happy to take your questions. Chair fewer thank you very much. Lets hear from the b. L. A. , please. Yes. On the 500 jefferson street lease, the board is being asked to approve a new 25year lease with the south End Rowing Club and the rec and parks department. The south End Rowing Club made about 2. 6 million in Capital Improvements to their site. They want a lease that will advertise those costs offer the 25year term. The terms are largely the same as in the existing less. The actual rent is variable from year to year. So we actually have two recommendations on this lease. One is to amend the resolution. One is to urge the rec and Park Department to extend the hours or days to which the excuse me the lease site is available to the general public. The other is to, under the current lease, the tenant has the option to extend for 24 hours at the tenants sole option. We believe that language needs to be change at the citys option, and we recommend approval. Chair fewer thank you very much, miss campbell. Lets open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public like to comment on this item . Thank you. My name is peter ross. Ive been a south end member for the past 31 years, and a former president , and just really want to thank rec and park, and jackie and daina in their partnership in negotiating this new lease. Weve had a relationship with rec and park for 81 years. Were looking for another 49 to tack on to that. Its a really great partnership, and we respect being stewards of this public asset, so thank you. Chair fewer any other comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. [gavel]. Chair fewer any comments from my colleagues . I understand there are two recommendations from the b. L. A. Supervisor peskin so my understanding is insofar as the Second Period is at the citys sole discretion, i think that takes care of the recommendation from the budget analyst. Chair fewer i believe there are two recommendations. So one recommendation was to urge that the south End Rowing Club and the delta club be accessible to the public for all hours. Supervisor peskin and i believe supervisor stefani and this supervisor opposes that. The site is accessible by the public every day except for sunday. Also, its one of the least expensive options for water contract in the city and county of San Francisco. Chair fewer the second recommendation was to amend the lease to extend the lease solely at the citys discretion. And we amended the lease. Chair fewer you are rejecting the first option amendment because youre saying that the way the contract is written out is they either have access to the dolphin club or to the south End Rowing Club. Supervisor peskin that is correct. Chair fewer okay. So id like to make a motion or would you supervisor peskin i would be happy to send the item as presented by staff of recreation and parks to the full board with a positive recommendation. Chair fewer okay. We can take that without objection. [gavel]. Chair fewer thank you very much. Can you please read item number 10. [agenda item read]. Chair fewer okay. And i believe we have supervisor peskin speaking on this, also. Supervisor peskin i will defer to rec and park for their presentation on this 18year lease extension. Chair fewer thank you very much. Thank you very much, supervisor. May i have the projector again. So the Golden Gate Yacht Club is located in the harbor. It was founded in 1938. The golden gate yacht membership is very inl invested in the club. The Golden Gate Yacht Club provides an affordable opportunity to participate in the Yachting Community as boat ownership is not a requirement for membership. Regarding Public Access, the public may visit the clubhouse for the day use fee for 10 on the same day for club members, which is thursday and friday evenings and saturday and sundays. The clubhouse is also available to rent for weddings and parties and other functions. Any changes to Public Access will require department approval, and the department and Golden Gate Yacht Club have an open communication about maintaining and providing Public Access to the clubhouse. Heres some photo example ofs sailing events on the bay or enjoying or being in them. Regarding the proposed lease terms, its an 18year lease with no option to extend. The lease will also include a hectare bar maintenance assessment, which will be paid with the rent. The department will use these funds for Harbor Maintenance projects, such as dredging. The lease will require the Golden Gate Yacht Club to establish a Maintenance Fund for building repairs and future Capital Projects, and so annually, the requirement will be to deposit 3 of gross receipts or 45,000, whichever is less. And the Golden Gate Yacht Club has been holding a student program, and ill explain a little bit more about the program in the following slide. The lease is until updating the also updating the premises to reflect the lease configuration. The Youth Sailing program is open to San Francisco high school students. They take about 15 to 20 students per semester. Students from San Francisco unified schools come from various schools. Financial aid is available. The students must know how to swim. Chair fewer excuse me. They charge for this program . Yes, they do. Chair fewer what is the cost . 400. Chair fewer so its 400 for a session . For a semester term. Chair fewer for a semester term. How often do they go out on the water . So after school, they have classroom insfrutruction, and then, they go out on the water. Chair fewer and how many students do they instruct . 15 to 20. Chair fewer 15 to 20 students at 400 apiece. And how many scholarships do they give out . Im not sure. Chair fewer do you have any demographic information on the students that he serve . Hello, members of the board. Im leslie iacopi, and the president of our sailing foundation. The questions youre asking with regard to our Youth Sailing, we have a foundation which subsidizes the inner city youth kids from the high schools that we are trying to serve so that they are able to attend for free with the subside gee, and then, people, parents theres other kids whose parents are members. They will pay the 400 per semester to participate, but we open it up to the general public and the kids that are its a way of druzing children who would not normally have an opportunity to be out on the water . Chair fewer sure, i guess it, but i wanted to know how many subsidies you give out annually . I would at least 50 of kids come from the high schools that are not able to pay. Chair fewer so 50 of the students so yearround, you take 15 to 20 students, but thats not annually. Its per semester. Chair fewer per semester, so thats about 30 to 40 students a year. Thats correct. Chair fewer and 30 to 40 students, 50 of them are on subsidy. Is that right, commodore . This is not money that this is money that we utilize so that kids can come to the regattas. That money does not come to the clubs. Its maintenance for the boats that we use in the regattas, and money for the coaches. We have seven certified sailing coaches that take kids out twice a week. Chair fewer thank you very much. Can we have a b. L. A. Report . Yes. The resolution actually, the ordinance approveds a new 18year lease with the yacht club and recreation and Park Department.
