Mission bay southed reDevelopment Project area resolution 12020. Madam director. Thank you, madam secretary. To the vice chair, the item before you is approval for the ena and preDevelopment Loan related to the Mission Bay Block 9a for 140 for sale units. This will be the second for sale project within the Mission Bay Area with one being mission bay north and this one being Mission Bay South. The project will be priced to be affordable to households earning 80 to 110 medium income. The staff went through extensive outreach efforts to attract respondents on the proposal. We received one proposal. Before you is the approval of first set of action items relating to the transaction. We do have representatives from the Development Team on the line and with that i will turn it over for the overview of the project and identify the Development Team that is available to respond to questions. With that i will turn it over to you. Thank you, director. Good afternoon, vice chair rosales and commissioners. I am annie wong, Development Specialist. The action before you today is seeking authorization for the executive director to enter exclusive negotiations agreement up to 3. 5 million with 350 china basis partners llc for development of 140 affordable for sale Housing Units on block 9a Mission Bay South. This is a very strong project for us as it is the first 100 affordable Home Ownership project. We have taken in a number of years. This particular project is one of only two that we have under taken in mission bay. Next slide. As such, in order t to ensure e units are affordable, the units will be sold pursuant to the Equity Program and administered by the Mayors Office of housing and community development. For block 9a all units no more than 110 of the median income. According to this lep Home Ownership model, Purchase Price at the initial sale and for future resale are set according to a formula based on the a. M. I. Level assigned to each unit rather than market value. Resale same affordable level established at the original Purchase Price regardless of the Current Marketing value. When the homeowner sells equity is based on change in a. M. I. Over time plus cal tap im capital improvements. If you have any questions i will be happy to answer. Next slide. So like an affordable rentable project it requires robust marketing for the developers to ensure that this opportunity reaches as far and wide audience as possible. To that End Developers are required to submit an early outreach plan within 30days of construction start. Such plan will detail how they outreach to the certificate of preference holders so they have time to prepare and apply for the opportunity. It will require that the developers enter into a memorandum of understanding with ocd approved Council Agency to provide Home Ownership classes to perspective home buyers. Second component will require 12 months prior to achieving certificate of completion Developers Must submit a full marketing plan that will detail the application process, lotdery dates and ads, Community Meetings and open houses. Next slide. I will jump through this quickly. Here are our most uptodate occupancy pref fans which i am happy to answer after the presentation. Next slide. Jumping ahead to site location. Block 9 a is located Mission Bay South off of the boulevard and situated mr. Right at the edge of the bay. It is an exciting location. It is boarderred by the mission rock street to the north and bridge view to the west. Across bridge view way it is adjacent be to block 9 which is also funded 100 rental development that you will hear more about shortly after this presentation. Next slide. Here we have a map of the site amenities. This shows the many and growing number of amenities in mission bay and connection to transit systems. In particular it is the Community Market opened last year and is only four blocks from the site providing more Neighborhood Grocery options in addition to the safe way on fourth and king street. We are excited valencia provides services to children opened at block 16, a few blocks away from the site. In addition there is a growing number of cafes and restaurants and services in the area. Quickly, the site is also very well served by options. It is a block and a half from the t third street muni line which connects to caltrain and mission bay north and downtown. In addition to the t line it is 2. 5 blocks away from the muni bus line providing access to the mission district. The Mission Bay Transportation Management Association Provides the connection to bart and cal tran. Next slide. Here is a brief background. In 1998 the Commission Approved the mission bay north and south redevelopment plan as well as owner participation agreement or opa. They allowed for development of up to 6514 residential units in mission bay with nearly 30 of that set aside as affordable Housing Units. Mission bay south 493 of those affordable units are constructed. Another 725 are planned or currently under construction. Opa requires submittal in major phases for each block abdevelopment. Mission block 9a was approveed n 2004 for blocks 8, 9, 9a, 10, 10a and parks 18, 19 and 20. This confirms 9a as Affordable Housing site. Now turning back to 9a, in particular, i want to provide background on the activities leading to the request before you today. In may of 2019, the staff released request for proposal for rft seeking to develop, market and sell for sale housing on block 9a. In september 2019, an Evaluation Panel consisting of representatives of the Mission Bay Community Advisory Committee recommended the team comprised of Michael Simons, Property Development inc. , curtis development, and Young Community developers with the architects as the developers for block 9a. They presented the results to the mission bay citizens Advisory Committee at the monthly meeting on october 10, 2019 and in same month staff provided informational memorandum to the commission on the same matter. Next slide. Current Development Program at 9a calls for 140 units. 25 one bedroom, 50 two bedrooms and 25 three bedrooms. The project will provide for sale housing, affordable to low and moderate income households earning between 80 and 110 a. M. I. As defined the project is projected to include 33 Parking Spaces for cars at. 24 ratio per unit and 140 or onetoone bicycle parking ratio. These include community room, outdoor courtyard with views to the water. Offices for sales and Property Management staff. We are proposing washer and driers and refrigerator and dishwasher. Next slide. Shifting attention to the financing terms of the loan. Request before you today is preDevelopment Loan of up to 3. 5 million for the china partners with 3 interest. The loan will convert to permanent forgivable loan at the close of Construction Financing subject to future Commission Approval. This will allow sponsors to work with architects and consultants to develop the design and fund survey and Engineering Work and legal costs and developer fee. Next slide. On january 17, 2020, the citywide Affordable Housing Loan Committee reviewed and recommended the preDevelopment Loan ask. They recommended pursuant to a number of loan conditions which include, one, conducting a design and cost estimating exercise to reduce hard cost by and i need to update that due by august 2020. Second produce Developers Must pursue additional Funding Sources to reduce the subsidy, developers are required to engage in marketing and sales teams, budget inn flexion subject to the review and approval. Monitoring and review of the reserves needed for the project and adjust those fees and reserves accordingly to ensure continued afford ability for future home buyers. Five, continued outreach to Mission Bay Community. The request before you today also includes approval of exclusive agreement. Ena. It enables developer to pursue predevelopment activities leading to the execution of disposition and development agreement, dda, for block 9a. This is Home Ownership development. There will be no ground lease. The transfer of land will be governed by the dda. The developer have made a cash sum of 1,000 to oci as earnest Money Development and additional 9,000 is do at the time of the execution of the na. The total is performance deposit to be held by the oci until construction is completed. The term of the na through october 7, 2021 unless modified by extension or early termination. It allows for extension up to 12 months to be approved by executive director in event the project incurs unexpected delay. Sponsors required to comply with nondiscrimination in contracts, minimum compensation and healthcare policies. They will look closely to staff to the Small Business Enterprise Program on this project. During this predevelopment phase the developer has an initial rq for professional Services Last december. Staff was able to attend the meetings and review responses with developers. In the future in competitive selection of general contractors. Developers need to develop to the extent feasible to require joint venture or partnership between the gc and oci recognized sbe contractor looking to build capacity. I wanted to just give a brief background on the outreach to date and will continue to take place as the project goes on. Staff presented the r. F. P. To the cac in april 2019 prior to the Commission Approval and issuance of the r. F. P. A number of the interview and panel for r. F. P. Selection. Staff presented an update to the Selection Process and recommended developer to the cac on october 10, 2019. At each meeting the members were supportive of the development. As the Developers Work with the design we will engage with members to discuss key aspects and obtain feedback prior to presenting the complete design. Next slide. In terms of project schedule, should the commission approve this request today. The next steps are for developers to submit 50 Schematic Designs and cost estimate by august 2020. I need to update the dates as well as a preliminary financing plan. Staff will return to the oci commission for Schematic Design approval in may 2020 and return for approval for a forgivable loan in early 2022. Construction start is estimated for spring 2022 and completion in spring of 2024. Next slide. That concludes my presentation. Thank you for your time.

If you have any callers, please put them through. Thank you. Are there any callers . There are no callers on the line. Madam, rise chair, at madam, vice chair. I do have a caller. Go ahead. Hello. I am oscar james. My question is, first of all, i am in favor of this particular project. At the same time i am in favor of it, the city is giving 3,500,000. I want to make sure we are asking for some of these projects to be below market rate so persons from that community can be able to purchase some of these properties. Thank you very much. Thank you. Do we have any other callers . There are no more callers on the line. Thank you. Madam vice chair. There are no more members of the public on the phone wishing to comment on this item. Okay. Hearing no further requests to speak on this item, i am closing Public Comment. I will turn to fellow commissioners for comments and questions, if they have any. Begin with commissioner scott. Do you have any comments or questions for staff . Thank you. Just to say and thank you for such a thorough report, and then i am excited and appreciate the fact that you are building in such a crowded city where we dont have access to a lot of things. You are building in an area with numerous retail and food destinations for walking, biking or muni as well as a nice Grocery Store where people wont have to travel so far. Looking at, also, consulting with the community. How did you do your reachout . The outreach, rather, to allow the community to know what is going on for their feedback . How was that done . I can take that question. To chair fee, were you asking how were we able to outreach to home buyers or applications in response to r. F. P. For developers for the block . Home buyers. As i mentioned earlier in my presentation, a key component of this project and any affordable project that we undertake is robust outreach and marketing plan. One of the things the developer discussed with us is to have the outreach to perspective preference buyers, for example, to improve Community Meetings, flyers and will include Home Ownership classes to make sure that any perspective buyers are paired to the prepared to take advantage of this opportunity well in advance of the project being completed. As i mentioned, the outreach plan is due in 30days after construction starts and full on marketing plan is due for review at the 12 months before achieving the certificate of authenticity. At the same time we have on the line and Development Teams to add to what i just mentioned. This is Maria Benjamin from housing and community development. Thank you, commissioners and annie. We are really excited about the project as well, and we when we get to the marketing phase of the active marketing phase, we send out a notice to perspective home buyers, folks looking for homes just like these that are affordable within their price range. We send out an email housing alert to about 45,000 people throughout the city. Our Home Ownership housing agencies Home Ownership sf is working with folks now in preparation for opportunities like this one. We dont anticipate any shortage of folks interested in this project. As you said, commissioner, the amenities nearby and beautiful view and i it is a real opportunity. We are really looking forward to it. Thank you so much. Lastly, just to commend you on having the sb included in this project. I am pleased to hear and see that. Thank you. Commissioner brackett any comments or questions . Yes, i do. I know last year we had a discussion about a more robust outreach certificate of preference holders. I wonder if those plans are going to be implemented in this new outreach or will that be tabled for later in the year . This is pam simms. Can you hear me . Yes, i can. Actually, yes, before we all went into the shelterinplace, the staff and i were working with sfhdc staff regarding the certificate of preference holders club. That club, as you know, would get interested cop holders together on monthly and quarterly basis to do various things. Initially, the plan was to get them together to work on their tax returns. This is an effort to help them know they are not alone out there, try to get some more information on their housing needs, what they would like to see in the future, specifically like this project. Then stay with them throughout the process to make sure they get to the classes and they get the certificates that they need to apply for the housing and then make sure that they are fully informed so they can put in successful applications. In addition to that, Sonya Mcdaniel and i have been tracking those cop holders over income that have applied for recent rental projects. We center quite a number of cop holders who have been over income. We are going to do targeted outreach to them. We are going to not only write special notes to them on their postcards but we are also going to call them and see if they might be interested in Home Ownership, and if they are participating in the cop holders club. Those are some of the ideas we have moving forward for this project in particular. I had a second followup. I know the units are scheduled for 80 to 110amr. Are there additional programs for someone within the 70 to 75 ama through down payment assistance or anything of the sort . This is annie wong. I can take the first stab at that question then maria can help me. Yes, actually, the way the project is going to be priced. In order to reach what you are talking about to create a band of affordability, the prices are going to be calculated to be affordable to folks making 75 of a. M. I. , 85 , 95 and 110 a. M. I. We are purposely setting that sales price a bit lower to create a band of affordability so folks making between 75 to 85 have that opportunity to access the unit that we are saying is affordable for 80 . That same principal will carry through for each income tier. Yes, from the sales price but at a slightly lower amount so it is affordable. Separately the city does have various down payment assistance programs that maria might be able to speak more to. This is Maria Benjamin. In addition to the pricing structure which in april of itself as annie described helps folks within those income ranges, we can dip a little lower and be able to help a lower income household with down payment assistance and the city has rather healthy funding of down payment assistance just for that purpose. I am hoping that we will be able to serve people down to the 70 a. M. I. Or lower. Thank you so much. I just want to congratulate you on working with our long Time Community partners like Michael Simons at San Francisco Housing Development. I really appreciate you guys using d10 Community Groups and nonprofits to reach out to potential home buyers. From organizations of the community as recognizable. Thank you for that. Thank you, commissioner brackett. The only question i had maybe one or two. One on pricing. I dont know if you are free to talk about what would be the actual pricing of the units. I notice in the staff memo the estimated hard costs in the 761,000 category per unit. I am trying to see what affordable is when we talk about affordability. I want to make a quick distinction across the bay area. Construction costs are very high. This is going to mean increased subsidies from oci as well as state and federal sources. Unfortunately for Home Ownership we dont have access to the same subsidies such as low Income Housing tax credits that a rental property would be. One is cost and that continues to be something that we need to explore and reducing in the predevelopment phase. The second issue is on affordability and what we will sell the units at. Those will continue to be restricted. If Commission Secretary i do have backup slides if we could pull those up. I believe my let me check. It should be the last slide for 2019. So here is an example what if we were to sell the units today we would price these at. I will start. One of the examples is 80 tier which is 75 of medium. We are calculating the sales price at a lower percentage to reach that band. That would mean for a family of three and they buy a two bedroom unit at 2019 numbers that sales price would be 2 77,000. That gives you an example what the sales price would be. If you wanted to, also, Commission Secretary if you can go to the slide right before that. To give you a flavor of what that means. A three person household earning 80 of the income would be income of 88,000. For those folks making that income, the sales price to them will be 2 77,000. Thank you. Can you give me a flavor of the down payment of loan assistance . Is that 10 , 20 typically . The down payment assistance we have a cap at 15 of Purchase Price. However, we have flexibility there. If a home buyer needs 17 or 20 to make the deal happen, we are able to be a little flexible with that cap. The only other question that i had had to do with the staff memo talks a little bit about a market study that is going to be commissioned at some point. Is that a share with ocii. Would that come to the commission for informational purposes . I think all commissioners would be interested inning what the in the understanding of the market study. This is a fabulous opportunity for folks. This is amy wong. I want to clarify. What the purpose of the market study from the Staff Perspective would be the absorption rate of the units. To help us derm what would be required in terms of a budget for the marketing and sales team. I want to clarify it is not quite the same as the marketing plan or outreach plan. It is more about an area study of how quickly the real estate is absorbed and the houses are bought and the demand there. That is more of the purpose what that market setting would be for. If the commissioners are interested staff would be more than happy to provide an informational memo when that is available to us. Yes, thank you. I just received a c. U. E from commissioner brackett with an additional question. Yes, i had a quick question about the Parking Spaces. It is listed 34 parking spots for this project out of 140 units. I would wondering is that in alignment with s. F. M. T. A. Or less than that number or just wanted to get clarification on that. I know that in some of the other developments people have asked for more parking. Iespecially family units two and three bedrooms with multiple children and not able to take transit. Yes, this is annie. On the question, i cant speak to what m. T. A. s levels are. A lot of agencies and our own projects we tried to go to a lower parking ratio. In fact, a lot of the city Affordable Housing developments go to zero, no parking or maybe two or three spaces for handicapped and shared uses. This is because we want to encourage m. T. A. To use Public Transportation as the primary mode of transit, and as i discussed in the earlier spots in my presentation. This is pretransit rich. It is only a block and a half away from the t line muni line. It is within three blocks away from the 55 bus to take you right to the mission district, then furthermore there is also the shuttle that takes you from mission bay to Civic Center Bart station. This is a place that is transit and amenity rich. We do not anticipate as high need for parking for these units. Having said that to point it is a Home Ownership opportunity, we want be to ensure larger family units will be able to have some parking. There is some opportunity for that. That is why we tried to bump utthe ratio to higher than we would typically see in affordable rental project generally. Having said that, just generally you had additional questions how parking would be handled. I want to clarify parking will be unbundled from the Housing Units. It will be managed by the overall hoa of the property. What the developers intend to do is offer parking to larger units first. It will be worked out in predevelopment once the accounts are finalized. At this period of time we are early on. Some of this needs hashed out. That is kind of the general gist on that. I have a quick question if it is going to be bundled into the hoa, is that correct . It is unbundled. So it is going to be put into the loan or part of the hoa dues . It is part of the hoa. If they want to so the profits would be if a homeowner were first to prioritize the game time we are aiming for. Prioritize larger family units for access to the parking spots in the order of lottery rang as well. From there if folks wish to represent a parking spot from the hoa. The parking fees would be due to the hoa, and those fees would reduce the overall hoa budget prior to assessing fees to the whole development. That is a little complicated. I hope that makes sense. You would pay a separate rent for the parking instead of a larger hoa fee. Yes, i understand that. I was asking. If we are looking at some of the families on lower income or marginally being able to afford this loan, i dont want it to be an issue where some of them may not see it as probative to paying an extra parking rental fee every month that can be anywhere between typical cost 2 to 500 extra a month. Wondering if there were opportunities for maybe persons, those marginal folks just getting in by the skin of their hair into the units if it might not be able to be bundled into their loan package. That is the current anticipated approach but since we are early on it is something we can explore. This is Maria Benjamin. When we typically run into fewer Parking Spaces than below market rates units, and the way that we set up to price them is an easy way to say this is on a scale so that it is on a scale that is in the affordability range of the lower income or below market rate units. Below market rate homeowner currently does not usually pay the same amount as market rate homeowner for parking space. Thank you. Commissioner scott, any additional questions or comments . No other questions. Thank you. I am good. Okay. I dont be have any more questions and comments. We are ready for a motion. Can i get a motion to approve item 5a. I move that we would approve item 5a. The motion has been made by commissioner scott. Can i have a second . I second the motion. Commissioner brackett seconds. Madam secretary, please take the roll. Please announce your vote when i call your name. Commissioner brackett. Yes. Commissioner scott. Yes. Vice chair rosales. Yes. Chair bus to is absent. The vote is three eyes and one absent. Very good. The item is adopted. Thank you everyone. Madam secretary please call the next item. The next order of business is item 5b authorizing a ground lease and amended and restated Loan Agreement with mission bay 9lp for a total loan amount of 37,245,760 for development of 141 units affordable rental Housing Project serving formerly homeless including one unit at 410 China Mission street. This is within the scope of the mission bay project approved under the final impact report, a program e. I. R. Pursuant to california act. Resolution 22020. Madam director. Thank you, madam secretary through the vice chair. This item and this project will serve formerly homeless households and include on site Supportive Services to meet resident needs. This is exciting. We have been working on this for a number of years when this first came to the commission in 2017 to select the Development Team to be introduced later in the presentation. The second new in front of you is enter the ena and predevelopment Loan Agreement. This is one of four projects construction. This is the only Modular Construction within our portfolio. We are excited. It is extended work because this is a novelty type construction. As such, staff is going to present on this item and then that shows the difference between the traditional and Modular Construction which would require staff to make studies not typical to the traditional projects. We are excited. The hope was that it would reduce the time on when construction comes online and ultimately resulted in savings compared to traditional construction, we are looking for it to play out. I will turn it over to he the Development Specialist with an overview and introduce the Development Teamed and thank you for all of your work on this. Kim. Good afternoon, commissioners, i am the Development Specialist with the housing team at ocii. I am here to seek authorization to enter into a long term lease and Loan Agreement providing 27,245,760 to facilitate construction of Mission Bay South block nine. Iit is a 141 unit Affordable Housing that will house formerly homeless house solds. In january 2019 you approved the concept and design. This is in anticipation of start of construction this july. As my colleague mentioned in the previous presentation, this is located on the same block as nine a adjacent to the Public Safety between mission rock to the north pa extension. Next slide please. Brock nine is served by transit including muni metro and 55 bus. Within walking distance to library and parks and open spaces. Just a brief review of the background on the mission bay project. 1988 the Redevelopment Agency approved mission bay north and south owner participation agreements opa. It mass allowed up to 6514 units with 30 Affordable Housing. In Mission Bay South 612 affordable units are constructed which includes completion of 1153 street. Serving homeless vet hav vetera. The opa requires the develop submit the plans. It included block 9 in the request for blocks 8 through 10a. Just a quick recap on the activities leading to the request before you today. In april 2017, oci. Released request for r. F. P. Seeking team to develop own and operate outing. In june 2017 we asked the current owner to provide updates. The team led be Bridge Housing and Community Housing partnership was approved by the commission. The Commission Later approved a notionations agreement negotiations agreement. January 2019 they approved the basic concept and Schematic Design. In addition the Team Includes architects, 360 of the partner providing Health Services and leblanc as work force consultants. The block nine projects consists 141 total units, 140 affordable furnished studios and one manager unit. It will serve formerly homeless adults referred by the department of hsh through coordinated entry. Building amenities include large Courtyard Community room, resident lounge, game room, Services Suite and bicycle parking. There will be a Community Garden that will be managed with the local nonprofit. The building is four stories and partially built using madlar molular construction Modular Construction. This is a an exterior view of building looking northeast. While the majority of construction will be on site using traditional construction methods much of the upper three stories primarily consisting of residential units will be built using offsite Modular Construction. Nodules will come and trucked to the site and connected to the Building Systems and utilities. Exterior materials and roof will be added on site. This is the first Modular Construction project and one of three citysponsord projects using this method to construct the homeless serving projects to reduce costs and construction times to serve the citys most vulnerable residents. The use of Modular Construction required changes of typical procedures. It is regulated by hcd rather than City Department and building corruption. It requires permits from both state and local review agencies. Developers agreed that this project would be built to meet the City Building code. In addition to reviewing and permitting on site, city review agencies conducted the modular plans to ensure they reflect local building standards before the developer submitted the application to the state. In addition to permitting changes, design is front loaded and decisions regarding materials and systems must be confirmed much earlier in the process. Costs are front loaded. Deposits to the factory for materials and refined drawings to get ready to meet overall construction schedule. Use of Modular Construction is ongoing learning process. As condition of the loan requested today developers provide a summary for the outcomes of the approach after the completion. As i mentioned tenants are referred by hsh. The project will not follow the typical lottery procedure. Hsh will coordinate with the mayors overstood fiand prioritize the cop holder in the system. Preferred tenants will be those experiencing homelessness in San Francisco and only adults. Households with children will not be referred to this project. It is critical to the success. Chp will be those for many other homeless serving projects throughout the city. The block nine is currently owned by Mission Bay South. Oci. Takes ownership at the close of Construction Financing and ground leases to limited partnership. Under the ground lease limited partner ship will own improvements and take responsibility for ongoing operation and maintenance. Block nine is supported by the San Francisco local subsidy program. Lost funds difference between rent collected from tenant goes to operate the project. As long as it is supported the base rent will be 1 per year. The total Development Cost for the project is approximately 81. 5 million or around 5 77,000 per unit. Ocii funds are leveraged to secure state and federal tax credits. Additional funds by the Affordable Housing program and general partner equity. Ocii loan up to 37,245,760. This includes the 5 million previously authorized under predevelopment Loan Agreement. Within the new loan total, approximately 10. 9 million will be made available prior to the close of Construction Financing to Fund Additional predevelopment expenses. This includes deposits, payment and initial deposits to escrow to fund production payments when units online at the factory. Overall loan is 55 years Interest Rate of 1. 5 . The loan is subject to number of conditions. Including good faith efforts to select the contractors, further planning for Community Outreach in the Community Gardens, securing lost and Services Funding tracts and financing and conditions include predevelopment previously discussed and hard cost contingency allowance for Modular Construction. The Developers Worked with Compliance Team to address the goals for professional services. To date approximately 50 of contract values are awarded to sbe or sbe joint ventures. Cahill is the general contractor and recently has gone out to bid. Cahill is committed to working to review bids and award contracts to sbe firms when ever feasible. Cahill and selected on site work commit to the best efforts to meet local hiring goals during construction. Project neighbors and Community Neighbors expressed concerns due to the population served.

Commissioner scott, any comments or questions . Just a comment that i am so in favor of this. The humanitarian act of building a place for formerly homeless households and veterans if anyone deserves this, it would be the veterans. I am so impressed and so moved to read and see and hear this. I am just in favor of it. I am pleased it is moving forward with aniness need for, you know, additional changes or to help make it the good that it looks like it is being or better. That is it. Commissioner bustos, would you like to comment or have questions on this item . No, iowa dont echo no, i would like to echo commissioner scotts comments. This ithis is a wonderful addit. I am very happy. Can i ask mira just one thing. With the Supportive Services that it will be offering, is that just only child care or would there be Wraparound Services . This is kim. At this project there will be no children on his site. The Supportive Services will be provided by Community Housing partnership with 360 to focus okays management. They will make sure that they are providing the services the cases may present. Behavioral health, substance abuse, help with Employment Training to teach people to be independent and focus on keeping them housed. Wonderful. Thank you. Commissioner brackett. Yes, i had a couple questions. I didnt see in the notation, there are a lot of veterans that need ada services. Do you know how many units are ada compliant . It is modular units. Are these going to be ada compliant and Wheelchair Accessible . This is kim. Thank you. We do anticipate there will be a lot of mobility needs. Thithere will be a portion of te units outfitted with grab bars ready with ada standards. The rest will be adaptable. The backing will be there to put grab bars in. There will be handleds going down to haul ways so if somebody needs to top and take a breath as they are walking. The entire building has wide hallways with high degree of mobility challenges. Thank you. That is amazing. Any other questions . I have one. I want to make sure everyone has asked their questions. Okay. The question i have is i dont know the number of slides. On Modular Construction, the bullet on one of the slides is 70 of the construction work will be completed on site. I would like to understand that by on site we are talking about on site of the project, right, mission bay . Thats correct. Around 70 if not more of the actual construction work will take place at the physical site at block nine. A portion of it will take place at the factory where they will construct the modules. The vast majority of the work will take place on the site where they are putting on the building scene, they will be framing. The entire ground floor will be constructed on the site. When the modules for the upper floors are put into place, those will be bound together and utilities work to make those connections to make the toilets flush and sings drain will be on site. What workers will be doing the modular component . The same group of workers . Same group of workers. Cahill will select who will do the work on site where they are creating the connections between the units and putting on the exterior and roofing. The modulars will be treated through a supply agreement as if you were buying windows or something. They would be constructed off site by the factory workers and shipped to the site where the on site workers will put them all together. Okay that is good. The modules themselves constructed in california . There is local, not San Francisco but realnal capacity . They are in vallejo, california. The factory is staffed by the local carpenters union. Okay. That was my only question. Before i an ask for a motion ifu have a question that comes to mind . No comment. Okay. I need a motion for item 5b. I move that item 5b be approved. I second the motion. Item 5b is moved by commissioner scott and seconded by commissioner brackett. Please call the roll. Commission members please announce the vote when i call your name.

Madam secretary, gui hav go e have anyone to comment on this item . At this time members of the public who wish to provide Public Comment on this item call 18885578511 and enter access code when prompted be placed in the cue. Avis will let you know when it is your turn. We will wait for callers. There is one caller on the line. Oscar james. I am in support of this project. At the same time all of the people who you recommended to have preference as well as the holders. I would like you to add teachers throughout the city to participate in this, have a preference. That is all my comments. Thank you very much. Thank you, mr. James. Do we have any other callers . No more callers on the line. Thank you. At this time there are no more members to comment on this item. Hearing no further request to speak on this item, i will close Public Comment and turn to my fellow commissioners for comments or questions. Commissioner scott. Do you have any questions or comments for this item . You may be on mute. Yes, i am sorry. Just again the projects that are being presented i am pleased with and the thoughtful consideration again of including services. San francisco housing and development i have witnessed for years the management of services around if residents and their housing care. They are outstanding. You would never know that huge complex is in our commenter. It is machine aging there. It is usually diverse culturally. Yes, they all seem to be very close like family, get along. I am glad to see that again San Francisco housing and development along with others will be bringing families into housing area they can afford. How about commissioner brackett . No comments. Thank you. Vice chair rosales. Thank you. Yes, i am excited about this development. I echo what commissioner scott said. We definitely need family Housing Units in this city. My only question is the unit mix wani apologize if it is in the materials and i didnt see it. Why is there just one five bedroom unit and two bedroom units. There could be large families that would want to be eligible for this project. That seems limiting to me. This is elizabeth. Thank you for that question. The 4 and 5 bedroom units are technically considered replacement units from the Alice Griffiths development. We replaced all units. The mix of residents didnt match the unit mix we were required to replace. We are sprinkling the 4 and 5 bedroom units in other developments. The reason they are so few is that this is a relatively small site and incorporating more at the costs we have now would be very difficult from a financial perspective. Predominantly, also, we would be two and three bedroom units having the high amount of need. This project is weighted heavily in that area. Those are the reasons for the unit mix as it stands. We are excited to be able to provide a few options for larger families. That is great. I thought it could be replacement requirement. Do we have information or do we have folks the databaseis to qualify . This is a great opportunity for targeted outreach if we know that there is a family that has been waiting, a cop household in particular that would have priority for these three units, two for four bedroom and one five room. That would be great to start early to work with those families . I think as always we will target through early outreach to cop holders. I will ask pam to jump in if we know if there are larger house holed in the cop world waiting will for them. It will be part of the outreach. If we dont know about them now, they will know before it before it is ready to to live. This is pam simms. Actually, our cop households are one, two, max three people. I can go back to the wait list and application list that we have done in the past and take a look. We will do that targeted outreach. That is a good point. Thank you. You brought up wonderful points. I want to echo about the cop holders. I am thrilled we are seeing a number of two, three bedrooms in our mix now. I remember back in redevelopment dates all we were seeing were just one bedrooms. The need to look at families in the city, i am thrilled the staff has been working with partners to make that happen. This is great. May i have a motion to move item c from one of our commissioners . I move. May i have a second. I second. Thank you, commissioner scott. Please take roll. Commission members please announce your vote. Commissioner brackett. Commissioner scott. Yes. Vice chair rosales. Yes. Chair bustos. Yes. Mr. Chair the vote is four eyes. Thank you. The motion passes. Madam secretary please call next item. Next order of business is item 5d. Revoking project approval authorized. Can i interrupt . I think commissioner bustos would like to make an announcement now. Commissioner scott. Okay. Members of the public commissioner scott has to recuse herself. Thank you for bringing this forward. I want the members to know you will not be voting on this item. 5d revoking project approval. Could you please mute. Revoking project approval authorized under resolution number. I think somebody needs to click mutes on the microphone. Again this is item 5d revoking project approval authorized under resolution number 422016 and conditionally approving the design of a six story mixed use building comprised of eight units including one affordable and ground floor commercial at third street and environmental findings. Bayview industrial triangling reDevelopment Project area resolution 42020. Madam director. Thank you. Through the chair, the item before you is condition approval of the Schematic Design. This item had been before the commission back in 2016. There is new information that is requiring developer to become and condition approval of the Schematic Design. It is a mixed use with eight units and some commercial space as well. That is going to present the difference between what the commission had seen in 2016 and what is before you now. This is within the bayview industrial try angwhich is one of two that they have Land Use Authority on. With approve there is no financial or physician cal obligation from the agency. As you may have read the plan expires in june of 2020 and the Planning Department has already done extensive outreach on some proposal and is with the board. Effective july 1, 2020, it would revert back to the Planning Commission pending board action on the newly devised area that is under consideration of the board. Would that we have our Development Team online as well. Associate planner within ocii will be presenting on this item and give an overview and introduce the Development Team that is also on the line. Would you please start your presentation . Thank you, director. There are three parts to this regulations. There is a basic program and highlight. I will introduce the design team and the owners and have the architect present this proposed design and the minor differences from the previously approved design. I will conclude the presentation with environmental findingses and the conditions before we proceed into the question. Next slide. Here are the seven project areas currently under the land use jurisdiction. With the bayview industrial triangle area highlighted. No foreseeable obligation as defined by the law exists for development in the bayview triangle. Oci retains the authority under the plan to review and approve development that is consistent with the planned zoning regime. Next. The bayview industrial triangle plan was adopted june 30, 1982. It is come priced of six blocks. It will expire june 30, 2020. In prepreparation they will inte legislation for rezoning of the project area in effect on july 1, 2020. The Main Objective of the bayview plan is to preserve and expand the industrial uses and improve the frontage along third street. Next. The property is located in the land use district number two, Light Industrial or commercial which permits residential uses around ground floor. The bayview triangle design for zonings controls for the Design District number three apply to this property. The maximum height of 65 feet with no maximum residential density. No minimum parking and required setbacks for upper portions of the building. There is also a minimum requirement of 100 square feet of open space per unit. The Planning Departments proposed rezoning will be nct three. Neighborhood commercial district with similar zoning requirement. Next. This shows the location of the property. Could you go back one slide, please. This shows the location of the property and the industrial conduct area it fronts third street. Here is an overview of 4128 third street development. On august 16, 2016, the Commission Approved the resolution 422016 Schematic Design of the condo building with ground floor retail. Seven units with one below market trade unit and four regular parking. New owners engaged the original Architect Team to carry the approved design to the Design Development stage. During that stage the design team learned about an 8inch encroachment of the building to the north into the narrow 25foot wide property. This made the design and construction of the approved vehicular turntable and parking in the basement infeasible. The turntable was requirement set forth by the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency to avoid cars from backing out on third street. The propose the design has the same uses, frontage, height and masking on third street with 8 units with no vehicle parking. As with previous approval this proposed design will demolish the existing twostory fire damaged vacant structure. The proposed development complies with all land use and development controls and related policies. It provides one inclusory below market rate ownership unit. This design has been endorsed by the bayviewHunters Point citizens Advisory Committee. Ocii shared the proposed design with the Planning Department. The Department Staff reviewed the plan and confirmed the development complies with the height and bulk regulations of the ncp zones proposed to apply on this property starting on july 1st, 2020. Next. Here is the Development Program of the previous approved resolution 422016 and the proposed Schematic Design. The proposed design has the same height and floors. The only difference highlighted in red. The development has one additional unit for a total of eight units. This addition was the result of responding to recent Building Code requirements that led to slight reduction in unit areas and relocation of vertical shafts in the middle portion of the building. Due to removal of parking and turntable in the basement, the development gained slightly over 1700 square feet of commercial space, and the owners agreed to provide 600 square feet of this area for community use. Next. Improves the pedestrian experience and the sidewalk. Next. I will introduce the owners of Bayview Heights represented by two. They will cover the design presentation for now. Good afternoon, commissioners and members. I will be presenting 128 third street to you today. The project is located between inniss and hudson. It including demolishing the fire damaged building and replacing with mixed use. Eight residential units one commercial space on three levels, basement and ground floor. Six two bedrooms and two one bedroom units. The project uses industrial material with panels on the facade, metal plates and industrial appearances and emphasizes it. By using light and dark as seen in the front of that. The design is consistent with requirements of bayview industrial triangle and rezoning. The owner had agreed to comply with the Small Business Enterprise Program. The modification was triggered due to the design elements. First wasn was the encroachmen. Upper is proposed for 2020. It happened on the lower plan, which is highlighted by blue. It is 8 to 12 inches encroaching to the property which hindered all of the solutions to get mechanical equipment in that area. Additional to that modification we had modification requested by d. B. I. Due to us meeting code 2019. The building was designed in 2013 and was under 2013 code. There was two main reasons for the modification. Next slide. The ground floor modification is mainly about relocating of the staircases from one side to another due to code requirement. Next slide. As you can see it is still the same within the mess mean level. The only difference is the location of the stairs. The mesmessanine will be a commy space later on. The upper unit is almost the same except the modification of shifting from one side to another and accommodating other activities per that modification. The bmr unit is on the third floor. It is the same. It is having the same Square Footage also. As we see the staircase was shifted on the back from the bottom part to the upper part. Same with the fourth floor. Modification is carrying on with relocation of the staircase to ensure the upper part to ensure more proper lighting for the bedrooms on the light well. Next slide. Same as before. Same modification. Same as before, too. On this plan can you go back, please. The extra unit was added on the top floor on the front. It was one big unit extending to the lower part before. Now it is two more units adding more units to the community. Next. Upper common space that is now much bigger and has more activity for the residents of the building. Next. Sections showing how the modification was triggered based on the removal of the elevator and turntable including also the car stacker. By removing these mechanical elements and the parking, the basement level now has no excavation and up to whatever existed at the current moment. The lower level is now incorporated into the commercial space including the messanine. Front was modified based on removal of the parking space. We have a bigger frontage expending for 25 feet, plus on the street and making the street for safe for pedestrians. Next. Back elevations. With that we had no excavation occurred. Next. Right elevation it shows the relation with the buildings. It is still the same. Nothing changed. Next, the northern elevation shows the proposed new light wells on the side which helps to create more lighting for the units on the building. Next. I will share now with you the video for the 3d animation we made based on the commissioners request yesterday. Thank you. This concludes our presentation. I will give back the presentation. Thank you. Continuing on with the last part. Environmental review finds that caconditionally approves is categorically exempt from review and under california Environment Quality act guidelines 15332 has a proposed project qualifies as infill development.

The next order of business is give me one second item seven, report of the chair. So i just wanted to say a couple of things. One, i think i can speak on behalf of the other commissioners gratitude and the fact that we were able to hear all these important items. And though the rest of the world has stopped, per se, there is still a lot of good work that continues and im so happy that we had the chance today to speak. But im particularly i really want to thank i want to thank the mayor and the members of the board of supervisors who took it upon themselves to really know or understand the work that needed to be approved and pushed through today and allowed us to have this meeting. But in particular, i want to thank the staff. I mean, you all were able to quick literally behind this meeting and from jamie to nucinda to nadia, our tech team, the others who presented today, thank you so much. You show that the peoples work is important. And we know that right now this is a hard time for all of us. Many of you know i work at glide memorial and we see how this epidemic, pandemic has affected people not just physically but in terms of having to feed people and also emotionally and spiritually. It has been a difficult time for all of us. Those who happen to work from home and are missing the connections with their coworkers and their friends. And even the folks who are unhoused. When we say or someone says shelter in place, theres still people in the city that have no place to go. So its hard. Its hard for all of us. But like all of us, we will get through this and we will do it together. So im going to if you indulge me, i want to read something that i heard last night that i think hopefully that during this time of shelter in place, its really a time of resetting resetting how we think about ourselves and about each other and really about how we do our work, whether its personal professional work in the community and o. C. I. Know this is well. Its called in the time of pandemic. And the people stayed home and they read books and listened and rested and exercised and made art, played games and learned new ways of being and were still. And they listened more deeply, some meditated, some prayed and some danced. Some met their shadows and the people began to think differently and the people healed. And in the absence of People Living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless and heartless ways, the earth began to also heal. And so when the danger passed and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses and made new choices and dreamed new images and created new ways to live and to heal the earth fully as they had also been healed. I share this with everybody because it is tough times. But its been these tough times that i really truly believe we bring out the best in one another. And i want all of you to know how much we appreciate you, how much we understand, know the work that you do is important to the people of this city. And to the people who are listening in the Community Know that we care as an o. C. I. Family. We care about you, thats why were doing this work today and will continue to do our work so there will be a time when we will be able to see each other facetoface in room 416 and well be able to hear from your mouths and your smiles and just your being will be able to see you and hear you again. And it wont be long. Well come out of this a lot stronger, that i know. That i know. So thank you for indulging me. Madame secretary, please call the next item. Thank you, mr. Chair. The next order of business is item eight, report of the executive director. Madame director . Thank you, madame secretary. I want to express my thanks and gratitude for the comments and remarks that the chair made. It is very timely. I concur. I, too, want to extend my gratitude and appreciation to the team for coming together in such difficult times and continueing toing to get the work done and continue to work diligently under these challenging times and are really committed and continue to do what is necessary to deliver a Development Project as it relates to our community. I want to specifically also thank the commissioners for taking the time and working with us to get prepared for this and all the participants that participated today t including our development partners. Most specifically the sfgov tv and department of technology, the number of other Public Meetings going on and working us through this and seeing where we can make this happen, em when it comes to approving over 350 units of housing that could come online within a year or two.
