One office at one point, so in 2008, we negotiated through 2015, that was prior to adding the train box to phase 1. The Transit Center would have been completed in 2014. Did we ever officially say we were not going to build a train box out rkts i thought it was contemplated we wouldnt build the train box in phase 1, but not officially say we dont intend to. It contemplated the top down method, the transit section was going to be built on mound dashing only and there was not going to be any exka f yeasting of train box on 2. And we officially adopted that . Yes. Okay, well, then it would make sense. Is there a motion for approval . [inaudible]. Motion for approval. Alright. Any comments . No members of the public wanting to address you on that item. Okay, any objection to the motion . Okay. Motion passes unanimously. Thank you, item 11 si is approved moving on to item 12 is approving the recommended applicant tos the Transbay Joint Powers Authority Citizens Advisory Committee. [inaudibl
People, theyre not named after corporations. I think to name it the google Transit Center or the twitter terminal would be bad in many, many, many respects. I think the term limits if you expect to get money from philanthropy, you cant put terms on it which is not a particular good idea, and i dont know i talked to the gentleman who gave the proposal afterwards and he had no idea how much money was required and he acted like he hadnt talked to anybody yet and two months is not a very long period of time to go out, go in the neighborhood and find millions and millions of dollars for sponsorships. It seems to me unless something comes back, its really great, youre much better off waiting until this project has the kind of visibility of what people actually see, particularly the park. You should be able to raise 30 Million Dollars from philanthropy to fix the park problem, you really should but its not something you can do in two weeks with an rfq. Its a lot of work and i would suggest yo
Ewe unanimously, none opposed. Item number 89 is approving an amendment to the contract number 0804cmgc000 authorizing Webcor Obayashi joint venture to execute a trade work subcontract with pacific erectors inc. As the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid in the amount of 19 million 553 thousand for tg08. 4, metal panels thereby increasing authorized direct costs by 19 million 553 thousand and the authorized Construction Services fixed fee by 1 million 486 thousand 28 dollars.

This isnt the skin, right . No. This is other panels.
Meps were awarded late last year, weve been nesting the scope with them, making sure they understand what the scope is, we expect to get prices end of this month, early next month. If that doesnt work, we can turn around and bid them out in the august timeframe, were hoping to come to a conclusion with the existing bidders. Its a matter of we wont be able to execute the change orders until after the budget has been updated. What time of exclusion does that caoe create the total cost of the park, our estimate is 38 million dollars. The estimate for the landscaping package thats currently being advertised is 24. 5 million dollars. So, theres about i want to say 5 million dollars, theres probably more than that that were negotiating with them, but i dont want to tell them how much we want to pay for it. Is there a motion for approval . Move approval. We have a motion and a second. Is there any objection to the motion . Seeing none, it passes unanimously. And well note for the record that
