The households that fall within that 70130 range. And of those, 60 roughly have indicated they are interested in below market rate condominium purchase. Some of those that had indicated they werent interested stated that they were their Household Income was too high to qualify for the program. So the selfreported information we had previously may have been lower than their actual Household Income. So they may fall outside of the range to be eligible. But of the 22 households that have indicated an interest, three have already completed the first sixhour home buyer workshop. And one has received their certificate of completion for the firsttime homebuyer program. And 10 indicated they have money saved toward a down payment. In terms of trying to identify where and when we should host the meetings, 60 of the households indicated they would be able to go to San Francisco for a workshop on a saturday. Some of them indicated that the 50 fee might be a challenge. Some would take transit or uber to get there. One respondent indicated child care would be a challenge in attending a saturday event. And most of the population, or virtually all of the population, says they have access to a computer to be able to complete the online portions of the application. So our next steps are to continue our outreach that we get to 100 of those 63 households that we have that fall within the 70130 of ami range. Were planning an open house for potential below market rate households. Potentially capable of buying below rate inclusionary unit at the end of october. Well be coordinating with ticd to plan for the premarketing window. And well be providing an update at the november Board Meeting both at the poster session before hand, as well as on the regular agenda in november on the premarketing process for residents that may be interested in that. And also, supervisors haney, i know you introduced a resolution yesterday asking for us to continue to explore opportunities and options for post dda residents and were working on that as well and i expect to come back to you with updates on that in october. President tsen thank you. Ill open it up to the board. Director richardson thank you, mr. Beck. That report really comprehensive and i can tell you are very impressive. What it shows is the advisors and the consultants are really doing an aggressive and effective outreach on the ground. So from the last report, there were these households that were holding out. We could not reach them. I guess on this report here, looking at statistics, it seems to me youve been able to reach out to everyone based on the universe that you cited here. Were now down to 194 units, right . I did not see anything in the report that says there was still some folks we cannot reach out to. So number two, were going back probably next month or some time in november, were going back to the island. What im just saying here, just to make sure, because we know some people are going to come out and say they never heard anything. Hopefully, we wont engage that. And im glad that supervisor haney is here to look at the statistics and i would even suggest before we go back to the island, anything that happened before then, you can let him know. Concerning the 50 for the housing workshop, no. The San Francisco Housing Development corporation is a nonprofit and there are so many of them. They are subsidized by the city. No one should be paying 50. This is one thing i know well where i live all over the city in the bayview, also the mayor, our mayor, the office of housing is very aggressive in this kind of workshop now. Theyre doing it to the western edition. They can participate anywhere. All they have to do is get on the list. It will tell them where its taking place and theyre subsidized. So we need to revisit and to make sure that there is no outofpocket we dont want anybody to have excuses, especially, so let us know and we can direct them to the appropriate and have the Mayors Office clarify. But i can tell you that all those agencies are being subsidized by the city. So Treasure Island residents are eligible. So the other question thank you. President tsen thank you. Director dunlop thank you. I really appreciated what commissioner richardson said about the 50. I dont know if thats nonwaivible thing or requirement to show effort. But a lot of people are just short of cash these days. You know, so 50 could be 50 out of groceries or Something Like that. So again, i do think that the fee could restrict some people and certainly we dont want to do that. Second question is weve talked in the past about trying to find housing for, like, teachers or firemen, policemen, police officers, sorry, and i just wonder if how that is going. It is hopefully going in parallel with this. So, yeah, part of the talking to people about the fees and how would you get to a class and child care, was identifying potential barriers with the intention we would then find strategies for mitigating those barriers. So i do believe the fee is intended as you said, mark, to represent a demonstration of intent by parties to attend workshops when they sign up. And then complete the certification process. But it is something that were exploring potentially, rebating to households that participate. Part of this dialogue has been about identifying and developing strategies for eliminating barriers. We need to find a way to provide child care. On the discussion of housing for city employees, that is part of a larger citywide discussion. I know the School District has a project in development for teacher housing that theyre undertaking now. But i think with the 20 sites that we have on the island, that is certainly a strategy that were interested in supporting as well as we get beyond our transition housing obligations. That kind of housing for, you know, teachers, firefighters, the middle working class of the city would be something wed be interested in. Director dunlop thank you. Appreciate that. And would like to continually hear about how that is progressing. President tsen thank you. Director lai thank you. I know a couple months ago i voiced a lot of concern over, i think at the time we had 11 of residents who were still not reached. I would say right now were at 1. 5 and that is definitely very clear progress. I just want to acknowledge staff and thank you to our partners who reached out and tried to help us spread the word. So im really glad to see this progress. I had a question about the cag, wondering how many people and what the mix of participants are . Theyre all villages residents, because the bulk of the material has been target d toward the village residents. And they cover a range of people that are potentially interested in taking advantage of the premarketing opportunity and buying to households that may potentially qualify for either affordable for rent or affordable for sale units. Director lai so this is a group of 10, or 30 . Its 1012. Director lai okay. Would you say that the demographic mix of the group is representative of the island . Yeah, i think so. Director lai i think i found it a little bit curious that the phone calls the discussion, the 37, that 36 were in english and one in spanish. I wonder if that aligns with our demographics. And just wanting to note and make sure we are reaching out to all of our minorities and making the language translations available. Which i know we have made it available, but you know, judging from the conversations, just wanted to make sure the results match up with the demographics. Yeah. We have been offering, particularly in cantonese and in spanish, the spanish population has definitely made additional requests for communications. So within this group, weve had one, but i know within the larger 190 household group, we have a small group. Im not sure the exact number. Of identified spanishspeaking households that we have on their own text group, so we make sure were following up with them in both oral and Text Communications about events and opportunities. Director lai thank you. President tsen any other comments . Comments from the public . Okay. This is not an action item. Merely an informational item. We can go on. Item number 9, parks update. So just again, weve been in the kitchen working on planning for the parks operation and the parks code, particularly, marion from tida staff and martin from the Development Team who is the project manager for the design and construction of the parks have been doing some outreach and engaging with both port and Parks Department, recreation and Parks Department staff. But we had set out some goals for the end of this year or early next year to have produced a draft parks code for Treasure Island. And also to develop maintenance standards for the parks. So wanted to give you an update on that today. So as we mentioned in july, i think, staff is recommending and progressing on the drafting of a Treasure Island code that would be tailored to our specific open Space Programs and issues. So this would be kind of the model that the port elected to pursue in adopting the port code, which is although its referred to generally as the port code, all of the provisions of the code are specific to the parks and open space on ports property. Thats versus the model that has been followed by public works for United Nations plaza where they, rather than drafting a specific code for the United Nations plaza, has said that the director of public works will apply the park code to the United Nations plaza. So martin and marion have been meeting with rec and park and port staff to discuss Lessons Learned. And you know, just strengths and weaknesses of the existing Code Provisions they have as drafted. Also scheduling discussions with the department of environment and the City Attorneys Office and the Police Department. The department of environment particularly as it relates to the habitat management plans and any specific Code Provisions we may want relative to those natural areas. And City Attorneys Office and Police Department for guidance on enforcement and penalties. Also been doing a review of the language of the park and port codes. The bcdc master permit that tida jointly have. Our trust obligations, generally and as embodied in the trust agreement with the state lands commission. The design for development and transaction documents as well as storm water Maintenance Agreement and bay trail and bay water trail packs. Practices. Open issues include identifying which matters we would intend to address in the letter of the code, versus general frame works that may be adopted in the code with specific rules or implementation regulations adopted by the tida board to help implement that code. Whether or not to address the urban farm and the sport park in the provisions at this time. As its going to be several years before those portions of the parks and open space are constructed and they may have their own unique requirements. Whether or not we have any provisions in the code related specifically to the protection of the public arts program. Also there are a number of buildings that will be within the park system, most significantly the chapel, but also a warming hut and potential other concession or facilities within the parks. And are there any activities that might be permissible in or around these buildings or via permit that might not be generally permissible throughout the park . Also any marina or water access related provisions or any coast guardrelated provisions. On the o m standards, were developing specific requirements for all manner of infrastructure that will be part of the park. And really its about scheduling a preventive maintenance and servicing standards for each area based on the types of infrastructure installed. Uniformly were looking to a high baseline. No area of the park would really be subject to neglect, but some areas may require a higher frequency of Service Based on the number of visitors or the pattern of use, or the nature of the vegetation in a particular zone. And, of course, considerations for the unique atmosphere we have on the island. Ive included here just our preliminary table of contents that weve started drafting for the maintenance standards systemwide maintenance and operations guidelines, again for the various areas of maintenance. As well as any specific maintenance and operations policies for specific types of areas like the storm Water Treatment areas, the dog parks, the beach, or other areas. And then the apendisies, the contractual warranties that the developer will be required the contractors will be providing for either vegetation or structures constructed within the parks. Making sure that we have a standard for tracking asbuilt construction records. And o m, operation and maintenance manuals and specifications for supplied materials. At each art exhibit well have a conservation guideline prepared as part of it, as well as our management of the maintenance yard areas to support all of these operations. So going forward, at our november, we expect to have preliminary operations budget for the ybi parks as well as the draft of the maintenance yard program requirements. The december itc providing a review of the draft maintenance manual. And by january of next year, having a fairly complete draft of the maintenance manual. A full buildout operation and maintenance budget projection as well as the sitespecific guidelines for hilltop park, which will be our first park to be completed and our projected budget needs for the fiscal 2021 budget year. And that completes my presentation for today. President tsen okay. Excellent. Yes, ill open it up to the board. Director dunlop thank you. Just, i guess, a quick mention. At one time, two years ago, it seemed like everybody wanted a dog park, but it doesnt seem like everybody wants to clean up after their dogs. So im really glad that dog parks is in there and that we can somehow figure out a way to encourage people to be more responsible pet owners. And then secondly, something i mentioned in the past, and i dont think its really it might be more of a road or a cal trans, issue, but as people, bicyclists go up the hill to head back to oakland, where there is a park where people are getting on the bridge going right. The bicyclists are crossing that area. And there isnt any signage or anything. And its sort of potentially i think dangerous. And so it would be great to have little signage or something for both the drivers and the bicyclists. Thats my two cents. Thank you. Director richardson thank you, mr. Beck. One of the most important tasks for tida is actually dealing with the maintenance of the parks. You know, at the end of the day we are going to be having the most open space in acreage in the history of San Francisco. And one of the takeaways really why the trip to new york was so very important, because private maintenance of parks out here on the west coast is something that we have not done. It is far more successful and it is not a coincidence that their parks, that are nationally known and maintained, and it is close there, have become a model. I was also impressed. I attend all kinds of meetings and i happen to be at a port meeting. They are actually very proactive. I was surprised. Theyre embarking on having nonprofit and the management when i saw that, i said, my god, because the port will bear because the giants and some of the developments along their property has open space provisions. And so they, too, are thinking about the longtime longevity of this. And everyone is moving that. So my suggestion is that its great, youre talking with rec and park and commission of the environment. We should be working simultaneously to be helping them to get an idea, because again what were doing here, some people have already done that. We can now be helping you develop some of these provisions that you outlined. That we could be developing simultaneously, because on the environment and anything, yeah, we know what to put in there. And some of the rules and regulations. And we also have to think outside the box, because again, rec and park, you know, are not. They are city owned and all of that and were going outside to look at this model. So they will not be able to know a lot about that. So we can be doing that. So my suggestion right now is that we should work simultaneously. And then the timeline, ybi, its coming online. We should be able to have a meeting or a plan to say this is what were doing now and in that plan be matching to when everything is coming up. So that would be my suggestion. Were highly interested. And you know, we can lend some effort to help in this endeavor. Thank you, sir. Thank you. President tsen mr. Beck, id like to say that its great to see that you and staff have progressed on looking at the operations and management of the parks. Its interesting because the other park has just opened. And thats instructive, but thats 4. 5 acres. We have the responsibility for 300 acres. So im glad we are Getting Started on looking at the codes. Its, you know, for parks, there is capital to build, but there is really the continuing funding for the operations and the maintenance and the management and, in fact, that continuing funding is what is going to make those parks safe and enjoyable for everybody. [please stand by] then we have smaller mark smaller parks that we are going to be creating as well, as long as the parks along the clipper cove. We have to think of each one of those in a different way, and perhaps be very targeted in the plan that we come up with for these different parts of the open space at Treasure Island. But thank you very much. I am really heartened to see that there has been work done on this that we have progressed, and we look forward to hearing more about it. , just one quick comment that i have actually already made in passing to director back but i have not mentioned to the rest of the board board, i actually view our island as very similar environment as the presidio because we are basically mostly green space with and it just happens to have some built structures within it, which i feel like the priority of maintenance of open space is very important first and foremost, and soak and so i just encourage staff again to have maybe some sort of a discussion with the presidio to see the Lessons Learned there because they deal with a lot of similar things that we do around infrastructure and how do we deal with private operators within their land, and i would be curious to hear the Lessons Learned back. Thank you. I would just note that the Landscape Architects who work for christie field and the presidio are all the same architects that we are using to oversee to the development of our parks. Are there any comments from the audience . Hello. Sherry from one Treasure Island, again. The parks are really going to be important for building a sense of community on Treasure Island, especially looking at having a mixed income, Thriving Community , so the fact that you are being so intentional about it is really encouraging and wonderful. So i think, also, having residents have some input into the programming of the parks will really be essential to making sure that it reflects the diverse, you know, population and diverse interests of the youth of use of the park. But on the maintenance side of things, i did want to remind the commission that we do have an agreement with tea ida for landscape maintenance. It is a social enterprise opportunity where one of our partners with programs, they train and employ people with barriers to employment. They are the ones who are currently doing the landscaping out there, but they are excited about taking on new challenges and diverse challenges, whether it be on y. B. I. Or Treasure Island and expanding it has been in a normatively successful training program. They have been on the island since the base was decommissioned. They were actually part of the contracting under the navy in 1993, so theres a lot that they can offer in terms of the historical what role that they have had on the island. We definitely are excited for all the various things that the parks can represent in terms of Building Community and also building job training and employment opportunities. Thank you for that comment. Okay. Next item, please. Item ten is discussion of future agenda items by directors are there any items that the directors would like to put on . Bob, i know that we have a full calendar ahead, could you just highlight some of the items that will be coming up in the fall for the board . This november, on island, as i mentioned previously in my report, we have been talking about the premarketing window. I have invited them to our next meeting. There were crushed questions from residents about the citys Emergency Response planning. Inviting them to participate in the postrecession before the meeting, but also making a presentation as part of a regular agenda. I would like planning to have a look ahead towards the balance of the forecasting for the financing of the third and fourth and fifth affordable Housing Developments on the island and the potential timing of that. The items that i have on the october agenda are slipping my mind right now, but ive got a draft agenda that i can circulate to board members. Thank you so much. Next item. Market, did you have a comment . Just a quick thing. One thing is, we have two on island meetings a year. Could you possibly look into making it three . Yes, mark, we have already taken that into consideration. We are looking at 2020 as the time to put that into works. For people watching at home, the plan is to go every four months to be on island. Well have our november meeting this year, and then im planning on march and july and november of next year. There will be three a year on island. Excellent. One more item to look at. Being the only resident on the board, if it meetings there could be just a little fiveminute slot to talk about what is going on on the island, as far as the residents, and generally just going on the island. Yes, we always try to do that on the on island meeting. I was actually thinking, every meeting. Just a little slot. Yes. Mr. Back, at some point, i would like to have the water Transportation Authority here. When you to bring them back here so they can advise the overall plan for the area. I know there are so many plans on the way in the city now, for the stadium, for the Hunters Point shipyard, and we have Treasure Island. Lets bring them back so we know where they are, what we are doing, and we can begin to have this dialogue to look at the Treasure Island transportation and how it is connected to the region and to the entire San Francisco. Those discussions are taking place all over and this is a great opportunity to have them come before us here. Thank you. Thank you for that because it reminds me of what is on the october agenda. On the october agenda, will also be having to my timma come back and provide updates on the congestion management work as well as looking ahead at the schedule for the southgate hillcrest project. The west side of viaduct project , and how those two coordinate with the schedule for the reconstruction. Well be having that update you know october. But on the subject of the fairy, two other subjects that i have been talking with timma about, include the early start to the operations and maybe a fairy, or water taxi model, as well as the Autonomous Vehicle pilot. Those are two that i hope to have updates on before the end of the fall. Actually, i think in november , the island residents will want to have an update on what is happening in terms of transit. So that is probably a good time to have those reports. Okay. Next item. Meeting is adjourned. Shop and dine in the 49 promotes local businesses and challenges residents to do their business in the 49 square files of San Francisco. We help San Francisco remain unique, successful and right vi. So where will you shop and dine in the 49 . Im one of three owners here in San Francisco and we provide mostly live Music Entertainment and we have food, the type of food that we have a mexican food and its not a big menu, but we did it with love. Like ribeye tacos and quesadillas and fries. For latinos, it brings Families Together and if we can bring that family to your business, youre gold. Tonight we have russelling for e community. We have a tenperson limb elimination match. We have a fullsize ring with barside food and drink. We ended up getting wrestling here with puoillo del mar. Were hope og get families to join us. Weve done a drag queen bingo and were trying to be a diverse kind of club, trying different things. This is a great part of town and theres a bunch of shops, a variety of stores and ethnic restaurants. Theres a popular little shop that all of the kids like to hanhang out at. We have a great breakfast spot call brick fast at tiffanies. Some of the older businesses are refurbished and newer businesses are coming in and its exciting. We even have our own brewery for fdr, ferment, drink repeat. Its in the San Francisco Garden District and four beautiful muellermixer ura alsomurals. Its important to shop local because its kind of like a circle of life, if you will. We hire local people. Local people spend their money at our businesses and those local mean that wor people willr money as well. I hope people shop locally. [ ]
