Items acted upon today will appear on the september 20th board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise stated. Call item one. Wages for the loading and unloading of materials products for special events on City Properties for city vehicles so for to you purpose. We have supervisor Wiener Officer who is the sponsor. Good afternoon supervisor farrell and im from supervisor wieners office before you is legislation that will help to insure the folks behind the scenes making the events the success those are folks that upload tables and equipment and the likes and we want to make sure their do paid a fair living wage while doing that work the board of supervisors has been consistent with the support for prevailing legislation insuring the work done on city permits it held to a higher standard with a fair living wage that supports families with a quality of life we have worked on this protective for a year and thank you to the local Agency Formation commission and the rec and Park Department, the mta and the port for theirs helpful feedback has we develop this proposal before the committee is legislation that focuses on park property and casts a wider net in terms of the types of events for the loading and unloading of vehicles many will apply since this item was agendized weve been can with sfrrlz with labor and organizers and event organizers to tailor the legislation to insure wear striking the right balance between supporting our workers and insuring war not causing a financial burden on the capitalized events ill request the committee entertain a motion to go make a serious even if amendments im concerned distributed you should have if flouven you that representative an expansion of the prevailing wage requirement with respect to geography that makes that apply 120ir9 and festivity limiting the kinds of events covered were focusing on this on the fence that have a highlevel of production i have been informed by the City Attorneys Office those amendments are substantive the item needs to be continued for one week briefly the amendments are as follows as i mentioned we will expand the prevailing wage requirement for the driving loading and uploading of commercial vehicles to all City Properties not just rec and park and that was at the request of the rec and Park Department and then but at the same time as i mentioned before as a way to measure proxy to look at the larger events with more access to capital the this new requirement would apply only if the event otherwise already triggers other prevailing wage provisions mainly the theatre California Workers like putting you think large stamps and stages and things like that or if it triggers the prevailing wage that is tied to trade shows and so and all of the exemptions that are in those prevailing wage sections apply as well as the exemptions in the orientals before you that are specific to this so to think about it the prevailing wage requirement is for events on City Property only those events fib already trigger under existing law prevailing wage requirements has to do with with production of those events and so i want to thank the committee for considering this item today and for elimination considering the amendments we have a futile people with comments. Thank you, mr. Powers. Supervisor yee. I was looking at through it and thinking which department and how would they actually escalate or monitor this agency precumbersome. An easy way to do this. The way it works for the board of supervisors to pass the amendments establishing the prevailing wage for the type of work this is what is before you today should the board pass this measure or have in prevailing wage requirements the next step the office of labor standards enforcement works with the Civil Service to do a survey to establish the types of work in San Francisco they come up with a number a dollar amount that dollars amount comes back to the board of supervisors and gets supposed to be between one and 20 days or 4 months the board to approve that rate so that is what this legislation does what every other piece of legislation does as well. I guess i understand that piece of it and maybe this could be the answer could be saved for next week if you dont have an answer once thats established and then the city vendor that works for the city drives some stuff in how does one know when to trigger the prevailing wage for them and when do you come to ours and monitor that . I see so i apologize for this introduce. I dont want its one of the questions im curious will come, answered next week this ordinance requires every permitted 24 the city issues has language specifically if you do xyz in this case loading and unloading for the types of event for the coverage youre required to pay the prevailing wage for this work and so long as our paying as a permit i didnt and paying that dollar amount established by the board if you basically, thats essentially you have the option to work with union labor would be prevailing wage or you could hire nonunion as long as our paying that but the primary has the instructions how to what the rate will be or required to pay the rate the loading and unloading it is concise for the driving question weve been talking with o lc the thought around how to establish a rate for driving politically happens through legislation. And im happy to come back with 0 more information next week. Thats appreciated. With that, mr. Rose, can we go to your report. For item one please. Yes. Mr. Chairman, and members of the committee. On page 4 of our report we state that although the proposed ordinance can increase the wages for that special events on City Property unknown as to whether or not those increased costs show a special events will reduce the special events on City Property and consecutively reduce the franchise we consider this a matter to the board of supervisors. Colleagues, any questions moving on to Public Comment anyone wish to comment on item number one. Please come forward everyone has two minutes. Thank you. Good morning. Im joseph a secretary treasurer of local 2785 in San Francisco i want to kind of give a brief history how to all start i was appointed secretary of treasury in 2012 and driving to the city and. Classic Party Rentals holding out chairs in front of the city hall and are normally we do a lot of that work and so i pulled over and asked the employees how much they were getting paid and i was surprised and shocked to hear how far blow they were compared to what the teamsters get paid to do the similar work in a city it is known to be in favor of labor and the high cost of living in the city he was taken back but how much they were getting paid another story that i want to stare share with the committee an event on pier 27 that port was dedicated to the union leader and we were not getting work out of Public School pier we went into that pier and found yet another company who was paying their employees substantially below the prevailing wage were proposing this to the one of the things there was not an ordinance for loading and unloading there was an ordinance for the electricals work an ordinance for setting up all the different booths for the trade show but not an ordinance for loading and unloading thats what started three and four on that a little bit over a. M. A year ago thats why im here today thank you very much. Next speaker, please. Good morning, Committee Members im with the teamsters weve spent the last year and a half working on this piece of legislation just to address supervisor yee some of your comments were not recreating the wheel we actually tied this to mirror what the integral Association Technical and stage engineers have done those special events will be the same special events theyre paid prevailing wage it covers different he it materials and has a slightly different focuses we met that multiple agencies San Francisco go rec and park and sfmta, ocii anywhere in the city it will have a special event associated with that a permit associated with it we sat down sat down to talk about this through the items of these supervisor wieners office weve had lots of conversations that with anyone that is impacted and the promoters and come to a protected consensus this is the least amount of impact and has a positive impact on workers, wages and working Health Conditions in terms of work that is being done thank you for your consideration.

Im terry born and raised San Francisco i worked here in San Francisco for 3 two years and we are in support of 24 measure it has to do with with the levels the Playing Field you have companies it come into San Francisco and pay half of what the Union Contracts do they may get the bid based on that you have people you dont know what the training is and if they know the issues and know how to do the work and people sitting in the hiring hall ready to go out there and go do the job about levels the Playing Field i live in district 7 been born and raised here and we need the last few years the board of supervisors has been very proactive in bringing wages up whenever they poeblt can thats all this does this means that employers have to come in and pay a certain rate agreed upon rate so it is equal thanks.

Thanks very much anyone wish to comment on item number one seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Supervisor yee. I see pat is here is it possible to ask him questions. Sure. My line of question was to be supportive of this dont get me wrong part of it what i looked at the as well, people will be supportive of this can we enforce this the thing that triggers the driving part of it you know how do we will your office enforce it we make sure that those companies that are doing this actually going to pay those people thank you, supervisor the prevailing wage a team within the Law Enforcement focuses on those policies specifically most prevailing wage are established though the industrial residents those San Francisco almost we need San Francisco to establish prevailing wages that were specifically to special events and private entities doing contract work or engaging in a manner that includes the list through a legislative digest for the enforcement our office has the benefit of leveraging the city contractors so if there is a violation we vend those special events so is not terribly different from superbowl and other events associated with superbowl there are prevailing wages and americas cup requirements it is more difficult like the nonrestricted prevailing wages well pursue employers and interview employees onsite to insure theyre receiving the prevailing rate or no sort of labor violations under San Francisco law frequently it is complaint driven not a certified president ial but actively respond to complaint with information out there the city vendor as the speakers noted this is this prevailing wage will pass will go into contract documents for any special events any say group or event promoterer knows those rates apply subcontractors and the subcontractors will work with the office to insure that.

Okay colleagues questions or comments . Okay commissioner tang thank you so i just wanted to get into a little bit of the details what was entailed in the rfp i know that there was a consultant that conducted some research on industry practices and if you could elaborate on some of those it is worthy he mevengs incorporating additional practices or technology into our future contract. So the Current System has been in place since 1998 almost 20 years now through the process of the survey by consultants and resources found there is very little standardstion throughout the industry and some of the things in terms of best practices a more flexible system to generate reports and more stable system so the system didnt crash or cause us problems for the shareholders within the agencies a more intuitive user interface easier to use and a system that is able to integrate with the contracts and pro contracts and just a better system. I know there was also mentioned you know being able to better use the smart phone tablets or other devices and so forth and, of course, this contract you said that youre hoping for the new vendor in place in 2017 gives us time from my understanding if there is a vendor to transition into and incorporate. If a new vendor is selected a new system a lot of training and during the negotiation process well run a system to make sure their system works and taking a section of the city and running life certifications and looking at a process for enforcement that can be tablets so we are looking that. Uhhuh. And lastly given the changes that your incorporating to hopefully help the new contract what would you say the everyday impact; right . So, i mean i know that people dont like receiving certifications iowa radio the real impact. For the agency it is better interface because it impacts a variety of our organization starting with Customer Service center and enforcement and hearings,th accounting so to generate reports better user interface so internally ill say extraordinarily some of the things were looking for a realtime citation posted the way it works today parking control officer will dock the device at the end of the day and all the sized are uploaded and notice are generated and fast forward immediately when the citation is issued they can pay it online. Does that gang the appeals as well. Possibly it may im not sure about that. All right. Thank you. Supervisor yee. Okay mr. Rose, can we go to your report. Yesdz on page 17 summarized in table 3 i should say page 16 and summarizing table 3 on that page the sfmta projections expending the total of 76 Mental Illness plus through october 21st of 2018, however, the proposed resolution requests the extension not to exceed 77 million plus so as shown in table 3 the resolution should be amended to reduce the total not to exceed amount to that 7677 plus we state that think page 17 our recommendation to amend we recommend you amend the proposed to reduce the not to exceed agreement by one Million Dollars plus from 77 million plus to 76 million plus this amendment will authors the request of the fifth amendment by two years from in love first 2016 through october 21st, 2018, and increase the agreement 20e89 not to exceed amount by 14 million plus from 62 million plus to a total not to exceed amount of 76 million plus and we recommend you, you approve as recommended.

Oh, commissioner keane. This is so exciting to see something on the ballot and were about to issue bonds and appropriate the funding for that much needed housing 90 in San Francisco one of the things weve obviously heard a lot about how we help our teachers stay in San Francisco so i know that again, you have the Teacher Next Door Program i wonder if you can can you talk about that how your work with mohcd and sfmta how youre working together to support the teachers living in San Francisco. Great as you said a lot of work towards teacher housing in the last couple of years and many years before that there were in the past some obstacles and two main obstacles one was fair housing if you used federal or state funds it is hard to restrict housing to a certain occupation and the other it funding as i understand were able to leverage your money with tax credits but householders above the ami medium area income for us to pay the cost of construction is really, really expensive a couple of things happened in the last year one there is legislation pending on the governors desk we firmly believe that will be signed shortly that allows skrukts to use their surplus go improvements for surplus housing and identifies the teacher housing as a state priority and a special state program that opposite side much the door for us to use the low income tax credits a lot of the issues will go away and with those bond funds we can pay that extra increment for the protecting housing more money available working with the unified School District they have surplus sites around the city and ready to fund the gap with mohcd with ios funds and other funds we have and so we hope to get hundred units of Affordable Housing online in the next couple of years and get started soon so we want to replicate that modeled and through other measures whether working with dispensaries with inclusionary obligations and mixed Income Opportunities we can keep that going. Those are great in terms of the state law that will be signed been little governor is that only for teachers or apply to other you know paraprofessionals. We specifically put you know we worked on that legislation to make sure we can Service Paraprofessional employees of the unified School District as well because the income ranges include people that are having incomes below 60 and 50 percent of medium area income that makes them eligible for tax credits and other higher paid employees for teacher that dont qualify for tax credits. Thank you, again, for thank you for all your hard work well continue to have more detailed conversations with our department on all the projects in the cue and thank you for all you do and trying to find Creative Solutions to serve people from all walks of life and incomes. Supervisor yee and in regards to the extended definition of educators one thing that gets left out in the discussion are people that work in the Education Field within the School District i dont know if that was included in the language. Weve thought to include the board itself range of income levels we could and see as we work with the School District we will be refining the, eligibility requirements so any School District employee should be eligible for this housing but thats you know we have to get the governors signature and move forward those are again, we sought to reach the broadest number of educators that we could.

Thank you, mr. Tracey. Thank you, supervisors arnold reverend brown Arnold Townsend there are a lot of things on the ballot this year and when you look at it and this election season a lot of them them more exciting and theyll be a lot of them having more money and uglyness but i dont think there is anything on the ballot more important than this initiative here because what no one is talking about that when you start to increase fees at city college at the Community College what is happening the educational system is becoming a partner in the hash gentrification that is and has happened in this city is he it only increases because it few weeks cant go to school here anymore so we must keep City College Free please, please continue to support that effort and doing everything we can to make it so one of the things i have been concerned about is making education more and more elite decreasing the number of poor people that can get an education in the city and in this nation and then when we make this more expensive your students cant afford to take anything by the core classes to learn a trade and learn skills and get a job when they scant afford to get the classes that teaches them critical innovate to believe every political hat that coming down the pike but people fought against the vietnam war and because of the education they be able to get up until that times thank you.

This motion passes. Next item please. Item 5 is recommendation approval of the Treasure Island mobility Management Study toll policy recommendations. Good afternoon arch. I have the recommendations for you today. As you know the Transportation Planning and support of the redeveloped island goes back to 2006 when the first plan was adopted and the goals and strategies set in that 2006 plan are the ones that under lie the recommendations today. They were readopted in 2011 along with the Development Agreement and the ceqa document, and then again have been the support that our agency has provided to tida since then. Since 2011 we have been working in support of tida to take will goals and strategies to implementation and designated with the formal role as the agency at that time and the goals and under lie the work include how to minimize and manage taf congestion and traffic impacts with the development. To manage the traffic and mitigate traffic impacts we node to provide an order of magnitude, new options for travel to and off the island and alternatives to driving and the third challenge is how do we pay for the ongoing operating cost and maintenance costs of the significant new Transit Services, and i would add another goal that really has been the focus of become a lot more prominent based on the outreach and feedback over the year and that is affordability and how do we support housing and affordability for the current and low income and moderate income households on the island . The level of transit is Service Planned and the recommendations will achieve is really a robust level of Transit Service and its the level of service that will make Treasure Island one of the citys most accessible neighborhoods. At the point of build out theres a muni bus from the island every three and a half minutes and Shuttle Service and Ferry Service between downtown San Francisco Ferry Terminal and Treasure Island every 20 to 30 minutes. Its a great level of Transit Service that these recommendations will achieve that. Theres also a number of additional amenities that our recommendations will achieve. Its an on island circulator shuttle serving the neighborhoods are Treasure Island that are free of charge, transit pass which is mandatory for the market rate households to purchase and serve as a travel demand measure but also available to below market rate households and amenities that Treasure Island doesnt have today. Theres no car share available on Treasure Island today. Theres no bike share available on Treasure Island today and those are things that we will be providing through this new Transportation System. These are the goals that underlie the plan and walking and biking, high quality transit and a place you could live without a car. Thats is difficult to do today. I mentioned some of the strategies already that will support that and present since the 2006 plan. I want to point out we do have a specific transportation performance measure that we need to meet and 50 at least 50 of the trips on and off the island need to be by transit so our recommendations we believe are part of what it takes to meet that performance measure. Theres also the strategies for managing traffic. Theres the Transit Services side and theres also the minimizing driving side of things, and to support that there are parking rules so theres a the Development Agreement included a cap on the number of new Parking Spaces built. There is all the parking would be priced and managed according to price and there is the congestion toll that is called for to manage driving and discourage people to drive during off peak times on and off the island and then something that is unique to Treasure Island that goes along with this is connecting those services and those discouragements to be a comprehensive package so Treasure Island would be the recipient of all of the funds connected collected from parking from the transit pass purchases and from the tolls. Those are through ab 981 dedicated to Treasure Island and to funding the ongoing operating services. Thats something unique to Treasure Island and the governance structure i would say is unique, this body, the timma, is responsible for over seeing this program as its built out and delivered and for ensuring the performance goals are met that all of the services are provided and that the traffic is managed. We are very grateful to a bunch of people for supporting us in outreach and linking up with Community Organizations and businesses so that we can reach people. Tidie especially and folks at tida and bob beck and liz are here from tida. Were grateful to those folks here and Sherry Williams from tie die and we did direct mailings to everyone on Treasure Island and right now the residents and businesses is small enough we could reach everybody. The theme that we heard far and away the most is affordability and concerns for current residents of affordability so we have three proposals that are designed to address the concerns. The first one is just our basic need to achieve the level of Transit Service that is called for; that robust level of Transit System disproportionality and low and moderate income households and we need to achieve that and living without a car to actually be a voice, a viable option for the people on the island. Number two an approach to supporting affordability for the low and moderate income households. Currently on Treasure Island and those that will move there in the future. 25 at least of those units will be below market rate and this is a program any household eligible for the units can take average of it. It would be a cavtearia plan and a household of benefits and wanted to benefit them regardless of the primary mode of transportation is and why we have array of options there. The first feature in the program is a toll Credit Program for frequent transit users and this is modeled after a program that exists today in l. A. And atlanta on their toll lanes where they have this exact type of program and frequent transit users get toll credit for that. In the case of l. A. Its ten trips is a toll and that helps support folks who are able to take transit for the commute but theres a drive trip you need to make over the weekend and whatever it is and not transit accessible and this covers the funding for that. There are other benefits we heard interest in be a car or bike share member. There are membership fees associated with that. And thats something that this program could help subsidize. We heard interest in providing the equivalent of a life line fare on those operators that dont offer that today. Muni has a life line option but transit and ferry does not and we could provide that through the program and the financial projections were presenting today incorporating the cost of doing all of the things in the hypothetical, the Sample Program we costed out. The third is in response to concerns we heard from long time residents and by that i mean folks living on the island before the Development Agreement. The concern is for these folks they moved in contrast to future folks so most of the 20,000 or 25,000 people on the island will be there in the future and be receiving information and be aware of what the Transportation System and options and requirements are on the island but folks who have been on the island before the Development Agreement did not make that same choice so what we want to do in recognition of that is provide a limited term round toll equivalent for those households. This is for a household benefit and in recognition that these folks moved there prior to the Development Agreement being adopted so the recommendations that we have for you today they are what we think it will take to achieve the transportation performance goals of the transit mode share and congestion management and the financial goals to cover the costs of all of the transit and the other benefits that i have mentioned. These first two areas which drivers would pay the toll and in which direction. The first area of which drivers would pay the toll we are recommending a change from the past planning work and it suggested that just residents would be the drivers paying and we actually find that the program will work better and not be able to meet its goals unless any driver during the peak period, during the poll periods is paying the toll meaning visitors as well as residents. On and off the island the directions of the toll we dont recommend a change from the planning work. Discounts and exemptions. I mentioned a couple of the discounts already that we recommend. We recommend the discount of the daily round trips for the long time residents and long time households of any income level and also the discount for the frequent transit users as part of the below market rate benefit, the transit affordability program. Another one i should mention is a provision that would credit drivers who are coming from the east bay on to the island for what they have just paid at the bay bridge toll plaza so no paying twice. Exemptions include transit but also slutels, van pools, 7a plus passenger vehicles, some of the housing and Service Providers are the island today operate van Pool Services for clientses to get to programming on and off island. Theyre are exempt. We just as a side note partnered with tie die and tcdi to fut funding for these programs. In any case theyre exempt and when the bicycle pedestrian path touch down is completed bicyclists and pedestrians are exempt also. Can i ask a question . What about carpools . Yeah, carpools, were not recommending a discount or exemption for two, three passenger cal pools. We project there is a very disproportionate share of vehicle trips on and off the island made by two, three person carpools and for the congestion management purpose as well as well, mainly for the congestion management purpose and the 50 mode share. Its something we should monitor as the island develops and as we observe travel patterns and see what the rates are carpool formation are. Okay thank you. What i am showing now are two aspects of the policy were not recommending or action or adoption of policy today and the reason that we dont is because based on your feedback and feedback of this body, tida board and outreach we need to do more work and this is on the question how much is the toll level and when is it in operation . And the feedback we heard is that we should look for additional sources of operating funding that can supplement the toll and help make sure that that toll level and hours of operation are minimum as possible to achieve the outcomes that we need. Theres the congestion management goal that we need to meet but as long as were meeting that you know the more we can find other Revenue Sources to supplement the fees from the parking and the transit pass purchases and transit box recovery and the toll the better so were going to keep doing that work and we will need to come back. We project right now that the whole system we services to start in 2019 so we need to come back to this body about a year before the start of services with policies in this regard, and we will need to work with you during that interim period on this additional work on the operating funding. This is a snapshot of the financial profile of the program looking at build out year which was at that time of this projected 2030. It might be a couple of years out from that but in any case a snapshot of the projected cost and revenues of the Program Based on what we know is committed right now and the three main Revenue Sources from parking, transit pass purchases and fare box and the toll and you could see that the way based on what is committed now a lot of revenue is coming from that toll and hence the feedback to look at can we diversify this either further . And there are you know, sources we can in partnership with well, with our partners look towards to supplement that. This is a high level overview of the implementation time frame. Again we want services to be begin when the first new homes are available for occupancy on Treasure Island, right now mid mid2019 so leading up to there is System Engineering work and civil design work to do. A lot of work is developing the programs and benefits so developing the transit pass. How much will the value of that be . What benefits will it include . We are envisioning something more than a muni fast pass because theres ac transit and we have a ferry also operating and we want the pass to shall this ordinance be. The transit for toll credit for frequent transit use developing that and getting those two systems to talk to each other, and our Agency Partnerships developing finalizing Service Plans with ac transit and weta leading up to 2019. Thank you very much for all your feedback in past and i am happy to answer your questions. [inaudible] off mic . Just a quick question. How much youths live on the island and in terms of school age . Do you know how many commute in and out of the island and how do they get to school . Right. I know there is about 600 households on the island now and the share of people who are youth i dont know. I dont know whether liz knows that. [inaudible] off mic . I mean can you get that from the School District . We can. They should know how many student residents of the island there are, what schools they go to. Yes. I assume they get to school by Public Transit or who knows. So theres a mix of things and i invite liz if you have Additional Information on this please come up and add on to what i say but we heard this during outreach that kids need to take muni to their schools and to do that they are taking the 25 to the transbay terminal and transfer to the other route that will get them to wherever the school is, and there are some i hear some things about other like sort of Shuttle Bus Services sfuc provides the Yellow School bus for a selection of public Elementary Schools like Betsy Carmichael i believe and john wai in redding but i dont have the full list but they provide limited Elementary School service but once youre in middle school and high school you need to take the 25 and transfer. I would like to know if you can tell me how many are due the muni program . Okay. I will find out, yeah. Okay. Thank you. Thank you commissioner campos. I know that you have made my ive made my comments earlier in meetings and from the board and i appreciate the work done thus far and i am excited about us being able to pilot a mobility Management System at all, and i just want to say i strongly believe in having one for the entire city as we continue to grow in density we need to think about mobility management for the entire city here in San Francisco. I have expressed some of the concerns about just isolating one neighborhood that is a part of our city on Treasure Island. Although i do appreciate what has been said about new residents who have an understanding of the cost of transit before they decide to move on the island so i appreciate that were considerations made to existing residents and particular low income households on the island and you know finally i did ask for the agency to at least consider hours where there arent tolling for the residents. I certainly believe it makes sense in peak hours and by 2019 it maybe most of the day so i am glad were exploring it and i feel while i have some concerns what is put forward i feel like theres been a lot of thoughtfulness and a commitment to listen to any of these issues that i have and residents have brought up so i feel a lot of comfort moving forward and i think we will be able to incorporate a lot of feedback into the final outcome of 2019 and i really appreciate the thought that went into the work. Its exciting to reimagine this neighborhood with ferry e expanded bus services and bike and bus share and other scpfers theyre necessary and we can really build with a future of a neighborhood on Treasure Island so thank you for all of the work. Director chang. Thank you chair kim, commissioners. I wanted to echo the thanks to the agencies and rachel and you are and guidance and support and to be responsive and to the community and carry through on the promises to look for diversification for operations and non tolled windows and finding solutions there. Its really exciting to work on a project like this. I look forward to not only continued local support but hopefully Regional Support. This project has performed very well, a tom performer for two rounds of the bay area work and as we move into the final stages of bay area 2040 update and hope it receives the Regional Support at mtc and the air district and programs that we might apply to and mtc and the air district or cap and trade and this is for all areas and social and environmental and were hoping to enjoy that support from the region Going Forward and at the state level as well. Thank you director. So at this time seeing no further comments from the Committee Members we will open it up for Public Comment on this item. If you would like to speak on item 5 please do come up. Seeing no public it is now closed. [gavel] thank you again for the presentation. Mr. Clerk can we call the next item. Do we have to vote on that . Im sorry. Thank you. Thank you commissioner. Yes. We do have to make approval recommend approval of item number 5. I make a motion to move this item forward with a positive recommendation. And we can do that same house, same call. Thank you commissioner. Mr. Clerk next item. Item 6 is update on the Yerba Buena Island east side ramps project and its an information item. Mr. Dennis. Good afternoon chair kim and commissioner campos. My name is dale dennis and the authoritys project manager for the ybi ramps project. This afternoon i hope to provide you a status update on the ramps project itself along with a couple of additional transportation elements on that portion of the island. The ybi theres a lot of work going on the island and not only the ramps but obviously with all the Development Going on. The current ramps project is approximately 90 constructed, and this is a current view of the status of the construction. We are moving forward on schedule and on budget. The contract was awarded in december 2013. Again about 90 complete, and president capital phase of the project is 68 million and the goal is 12. 5 for dbe and were meeting that goal and with the progress we experienced to date the new ramps are scheduled to open in september of this year. Some of the upcoming milestones to complete the ramps this month theyre completing the bridge barrier rails. Next month in august were moving forward with the north gate mc clawla reconstruction with completing the seismic bridge deck joints and moving forward in september we will start and complete the traffic electrical signing and striping and that will allows us to open the ramps and at that point and we will have other work but its scheduled to be completed by the end of the year. The next slide shows some interesting facts and figures. Just showing the magnitude and complexity of the project, but theres been 12500 cubic yards of structure concrete and over 1400 truck loads and five millions of pounds of steel and 7miles of piles and more than 185tons of structural steel so its a very complicated project and its interesting to see what it takes to build these projects of this nature. This slide gives you a nice aerial view of the ramps from the tunnel above 80 so you can really good a good perspective as to the configuration and the geometrics of the ramp. As i mentioned theres a couple other transportation elements that we are moving forward with working with all of our partners, working with caltrans, the bay area toll authority, tida, their developer, the local city agencies mta and dpw along with the coast guard and one of the elements is vista point. Caltrans is in the process of wrapping up the construction of the pedestrian bicycle path on the bay bridge and one of the things with all the construction that is going on the island over the next couple of years we are working with our partners to create a vista point so bicyclists and pedestrians arriving at the island will have some place to go until shft other some of the pedestrian paths are constructed in the future. If you look at the exhibit all of the orange up to the orange on the exhibit is what cal trans is constructing and on the left side of the exhibit and then to the right with all the green, yellow and the blue, those are facilities that are being constructed as part of vista point. Those will include hydration station, restrooms, bike racks, bunches and additional parking area and in order to construct this were using quarters nine from the coast guard so the coast guard have been cooperative in assisting with the improvements. The funding has been identified a combination of funds from bata and the authority with c co with the current ramps project so estimated at 2 million currently and were shooting to open vista point this fall as well and hopefully tie it with the hoping official opening of the bike pedestrian facility. This is a view of what the bicyclists or people arriving at the site would actually see looking back at the bay bridge so its a pretty striking view. The other element that were working with our partners on is the alignment of the south gate road. Its a local roadway system connecting the east side, eastbound ramps and the westbound ramps making it a full interchange. As we have been working with our partners and engineers over the last months its recognized that the current line for south gate in the configuration on this exhibit has a number of deficiencies operationally and just in conflict with the bike vista point we were just talking about, but with this configuration were looking at there could be potential q spill backs on to 80 from the off ramp. The bike ped will have a conflict there between the vehicular traffic and vehicle and peds. There is no Public Parking currently planned and again the south gate hillcrest intersection would be a l so f at this point and beyond that as the geometrics laid out there are truck deficiencies that wouldnt allow full access for trucks so we have been working with our partners and the next exhibit shows the realigned south gate road which addresses all of these deficiencies. You will see the alignment of south gate instead of being on the north side of the hillcrest you will see it sweeps down to the south side of quarters eight under the eastbound off ramp and sweeps under the bridge to go ahead and tie into mc clawla where the ramps project is. With this configuration and you can see on the top side on the orange you will see the connections for the bike peds where they can have access to the vista point as well as to the left theres a 16foot bike ped path that then sweeps down under the bridge to tie into mc clowla as well. The benefits of this proposed realignment of south gate again it reduces the cuing on to 80 and safety improvement, eliminates the bike ped conflict, establish the parking area around quarters eight. It results in significant intersection lo s improvement operationally and again it accommodates the truck turning movements which is critical because this is the primary ramps used when we start working on the west side bridges. Were currently working forward with an Implementation Plan with our partners. Caltrans has already issued a deductive change order to not construct south gate in the previously planned area, and so we are now working with caltrans and bata and the other group to come up with a plan for the south gate realignment and hoping to accomplish in the next two, three months. With that i will see if you have any questions. Thank you mr. Dennis and i dont see any questions. Thank you so much for the presentation and it is really exciting to see this come in completion and on time and budget and excited about the bike pathway and rest stop. I think thats a great addition for the item and those cycling on the bay bridge. Thank you. I will simply know i know the executive director will keep me posted as i sit on the mtc bata in terms of funding and whatever we can do to supportive of the project please let us know. Thank you. Thank you commissioner. At this time we will open it up for Public Comment on item number 6. If any members of the public would like to see. Seeing none. Public comment is now closed. [gavel].
