And the sanctuary city and all that stuff. You dont care about all that. If you did, you wouldnt let these poor immigrants walk through filth, people shooting up, selling crack, going to the bathroom in the streets. I suggest you start doing your job. Put out a couple more out houses, maybe a public bath, a needle place where people can shoot up or put their dirty needles instead of leaving them in the street. This is a total ruin. You guys are presiding over it. So i suggest you get out of the developers hip pocket and start addressing some of the issues that are facing us. The Placement Center, what good is a Placement Center when the public, the homeless cant use the bathroom. They have to go in the alley in the back and use the bathroom. Or, you know, they cant go in the front because people are selling crack out there. 600 feet for a pot club . Everybody is selling crack anywhere they want. This is a disgrace. Are you guys have you guys been outside . Have you walked up larkin street or hyde . Thank you. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. Auto duffy, neighborhood activist. Historically going back, you know, about the time i was born, the golden post warriors, there were a lot more jobs and those jobs didnt require extreme Academic Skills or any other india of great skills the average person could find a way to raise a family. I had a neighbor who drove a milk truck. Part of our problems is those jobs are gone. Theyre gone. I know about the time i moved here there were two people on every bus. There was a driver and a conductor. They all made incomes good enough to raise families on. Then, you know, so thats so thats the problem with the housing right there. You cant what i think is that, im representing a demographic thats below the demographic this project recent project we just talked about is made for. Maybe the upper third of the people i represent might have a chance to get into that housing. But, you know, probably not. Making it worse is that the people who are in that 100 of Median Income range, 125 , theyre taking up the housing that the lower demographic used to live in, for instance, the president of the board of supervisors. So what im saying is i want to put a marker out there and say if were going to do things like mission rock project, we have to do more than that. The Behavioral Health component that somebody mentioned right now, thats kind of what im talking about. Thank you. Thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. If there are any other members what who would like to address the board, now is your opportunity. Were pushing the limits. Overhead, please. Timing is almost everything. I may have blown the time. Tell the guys at the giants thats me in 1955 after they won the i was all decked out. You might say i was baptized a giant back in new york. So im partial to them. Heres another photo. Thats the health club. They were a mom and pop Marijuana Club that got knocked out four or five years ago when the last feds moved in. They were the oldest club. Thats the love shack. Thats where i can go and i can get weed out of a jar. Its not its not packaged in a package like this. It is fresher. If you went to the building and you bought all of your ingredients in plastic wrapped in plastic, thats the difference of what the feds are doing. So basically, growers that like to grow their weed and make a gift of it cant do that anymore. Were losing moms and pops. The brothers have been doing brownies for 10 or 15 years. They may lose out because of the new ingredients. I brought in a couple of joints last time. Those joints would last me two weeks. They cost about 20 each. A cigarette is smoked within ten minutes, 40 minutes later you need another one and its destructive. We need to take marijuana away from its being a radioactive. Its a help to living. Thank you.

Good afternoon, president brandon, rise president adams, commissioner woo ho. I am elaine forbes, and i am the ports executive director. First i would like to congratulate the hit toric pier 70 and the historic pier 70 and the orton project. On march 7th at 8 30, they will receive an award honoring their outstanding contribution and other outstanding winners. Id like to explain why they won this award. The award rationale is despite challenges, historic constraints, environmental and structural challenges, a complex capital stack, tax credits, these buildings were historically renovated and successfully leased, and they have served as a catalyst for the reextremity of the larger site. These revenues have been put back into rehabilitation for the port of San Francisco. These proud structures inaccessible to the public since their original construction can now be viewed, experienced, and appreciated by future generations. So congratulations to Orton Development, eddie orton, to plant construction, to the port team led by phil williamson, and i believe we have a representative from Orton Development here. Yes, hello. I think this is mr. Mora, would you like to say a word to the Port Commission . Youre not obliged to, sir. Come to the microphone, please. Hello, everyone. My name is everardo maora, andi thank you for this opportunity to stand before you and also for the opportunity to bring these buildings back to the community. Restoring them was a very meaningful, difficult project for us, and were happy to be on the final stretch with them. We also look forward to coming back within about two months once we finalize the project to give you an update on where the project stands overall, and we look forward to future opportunities on the waterfront. And just, you know, just want to really, really give a big thank you to the port staff at all levels, the port engineering department, the Environmental Review department, historic department, they all had an incredibly important part of our success, so thank you very much. Thank you so much. Congratulations, and thank y you. Thank you. Were extremely proud of this project. Id also like to update you on the status of mission rock. Since the Port Commission approved the transaction documents and accepted ceqa findings just at our last Commission Hearing on january 30th, the project team has been extremely busy. Last monday, on the 5th of february , the board of supervisors land use and Transportation Committee recommended the project to the full board of supervisors. They acknowledged the projects many public benefits. On tuesday, the next day, the 6th of february , the sfmta board approved the project Development Agreement and interagency cooperation agreement, complimenting the team on its careful approach to right sizing the future parking structure. The following day, the 7th, our team, led by rebecca benecini, and for the giants, fran wells, appeared before the budget over Sight Committee to explain the plans structure, and they approved the plan to the full board of supervisors. Yesterday, they received a positive recommendation on the projects financing mechanisms, which is vitally important to the projects success, and the project was forwarded to the full board with a recommendation today, cu culminating from 11 years of thoughtful presence and efforts, and thanks to a purposeful and thoughtful discretion of the board commission, the project is before the board of supervisors to hear the final approval. At the second the boreds second hearing, the project will occur on final read on the 23rd of february , and then, mayor farrell will have ten days to sign the transaction documents. The team is currently working with state Land Commission to explain the structure in a Firm Compliance with state legislation, leading to an april request for state Lands Commission approval. In may, my team anticipates approval of a major approval from bcbc for the projects permanent open space plan, and in october, we anticipate initial site work to commence, so were very busy and pleased with the progress weve made just since your last hearing. This room is going to get an audiovisual upgrade. After dealing with equipment that was put in in the late 80s, i believe, its time for an improvement. The upgrade will occur from february 26th through march 30th. The modernization will improve the quality and consistency of sound and the video experience in this space. It will also improve what the viewers see on channel 26, and the recording quality of the meeting for the public. Well also now have high speed wifi in the room, which will be a nice upgrade. During the upgrade project, were going to be relocating to pier 1 for our Port Commission hearing, and that means for the meeting on february 21st, march 13th, and march 27th, we will be in the bay side rooms at pier 1. We look forward to reconvening the Commission Meeting with full services here in april, and id like to thank all for skillfully overseeing the project, and that concludes my report. Thank you. Thank you. 9d . Oh, im sorry, any Public Comment on the executive directors report. No . 9d, Port Commissioners report. Commissioners, anything to report . Commissioner adams . Vice president adams first of all, i just want to say to our president brandon, it was an honor to attend your 20th anniversary on the San FranciscoPort Commission, madam president , and a special howd o shout out to renee, to make that a very, very historical evening. For me, it was historical in the sense that this being black history month, and president brandons contribution to this community, and to see her friends and family. Corrine spoke, jack blair from the giants spoke, mayor brown, and then kims partner in life, mimi, and it was just an honor to be a part of that, so thank you so much for allowing me to be there and playing such a small part. And also, i would just like to say that madam president , when you get done speaking, could we have a moment of silence for madam secretary amy posadas mother who passed away . Thank you. Thank you. I, too, thank elaine and renee and all the port staff that had anything to do with the event last week. It was it was just so magical and memorable and just such an honor, and im just so humbled and thankful to have been able to take this journey with all of you for so long, so yes. In i really want to thank everybody. It was just a great event, and sorry that everybody couldnt attend. And i would like to take a moment of go ahead. No, i was just going to before you spoke, i was just going to say congratulations, not only on the event, but on which, unfortunately, i had a prior commitment, so i came at the tail end, and people were still having a great time and talking about how wonderful it was. But really, just congratulations on 20 years. That is, i think, extraordinary in terms of the amount of dedication and commitment that youve given to the port and the city of San Francisco, so just really want to thank you for your commitment to Public Service and service to the port and really just take a moment to reflect on how significant it is for somebody to give 20 years of service to a Commission Like this. Its no easy feat while carrying on all of your other Community Activities as well, but i guess it just goes to show, if you want something done, ask a busy person. Congratulations on 20 wonderful years, and perhaps 20 more. Thank you. Id just like to add, i think that everything should be said has been said, but just add my own personal congratulations. I remember kim when she came on the commission, she was really helpful to explain because she had the history, she had the knowledge, and she had the culture, and shes very persistent, so i have a tremendous amount of respect for what she has done and contributed for the commission, for her community, and for each one of us, and so its very appropriate that she also gets to celebrate this anniversary as she is president this year, so congratulation again. Thank you. Now, can we have a moment of silence for amys mother. Thank you. Items on consent, 10a, request approval for a member of the Port Commission to travel with port staff to attend the sea trade cruise global conference on march 5th through t8th, 2018 in fort lauderdale, florida. 10b, request approval for the Port Commission to travel to [ inaudible ] 10c, request approval for the port of San Francisco drone policy relating to the ports use of drones on port property pursuant to the city and county of San Franciscos citywide employee drone policy, adopted by the citys committee on information technology. May i have a motion . So moved. Second. Is there any Public Comment on items 11, 12, or 13 . Seeing none, all in favor . Any opposed . Resolutions 1811, 12, and 13 have been approved. Item 11a, informational presentation on the ports fiscal year 2018 through 2019 and 2019 through 2020 biennial operating budget. Good afternoon, im megan wallace, the ports manager, and im here today to present on the proposed fiscal year 201819 and 1920 budget. Today, ill really be focusing primarily on the operating budget, as our capital manager, anonda hirsch, will be presenting on the Capital Budget shortly after me. I also just want to note just putting together any budget is really a team effort, and i particularly want to thank tar anavarro and mayrilyn yates frm the real estate and maritime division. Margaret doyle, shes supported me, and its been an amazing experience, as well. So i guess, you know, just really quicking it o really kicking it off, the mayor office and staff do a rigorous review of the citys economic and fiscal outlooks, and what weve been seeing weve been on a really long growth period for our local economy, and were starting to get warning signs, so we need to be more conservative in our opening outlooks, and that is also being paired with, as youre familiar with the ongoing story of growing personnel in expenses, those two drivers are really putting a real squeeze on the citys general fund, and while we arent a general Fund Department and arent being held to the same requirement of cutting our budget, we are being held to control our personnel growth, given thats one of the key drivers of ongoing growth within our budget. So heading into the ports budget process, we really did try to take a fiscally prudent approach of controlling our expenses. You are going to see were recommending strategic increase increases. In terms of managing personnel, were asking more along the lines of substitution of existing staff, so we are not seeing growth in our ongoing support, but we are requesting a good number of funding positions, and theyre contingent upon project funds. So we really held to the budget instructions, and i think that overall, were managing trying to repair our budget for a potential downturn moving into the next two fiscal years. I think one great thing about the budget is it really is making policies, putting its putting our money where our mouths are in terms of our strategic objectives,
