The mayors offices of the neighborhoods, program which is under oewdn. I think they will have a lot of advice to add. Obviously, they are usually dealing with existing neighborhoods and communities in how they can help those neighborhoods. This is a unique situation where we build up a new neighborhood. There are a lot of important lessons there. From my experience on the private side and also as planner, i think there is a important distinction between destination retail and neighborhoods serving retail. From your presentation it makes sense. The areas highlighted in pink is appropriate. Keep in mind that doesnt mean just because you have a robust destination retail plan that it would serve the local community, and i think that echoes some of the directors comments around focusing on the ground floor retail and the first floor apartment buildings and what we are doing there. That is where the neighborhood serving retail needs to be. I am sure you are aware of this as an asset manager as well, but the way you approach operations and management of descontinue nation retail versus neighborhoods is very, very different. We need to be cognizant of that and not overpower and mistaken some of the neighborhoods surveying retail opportunities as destination. I believe in having some tenants such as walgreens and cvs. I think it is an Important Service to have and when designed appropriately it can be very complimentary part of the community. Although i support Small Businesses, of course, in a completely new community, it is sometimes you do need that platform that is already well established and systematic and can deliver a lot of variety of services in one shop so personally i would say, you know, you should consider that as well. I think the comment you made about how retail is moving towards smaller spaces and how the space is interesting, i have also seen in certain neighborhoods where because of certain land use regulations requiring the smaller retail spaces, yes, it does encourage Small Business opportunities, but there are challenges with that as well because in a given block you can only have so many little coffee shops, and they usually lend themselves to lay dime use only. I think it is important to plan for both daytime and evening time uses so the streets are not just quiet at night or in the morning. In terms of having only small retail spaces it would be challenging to accommodate certainness support of retail or commercial activities such as groceries and even child care. Those are usually more large format basis. I am curious where you think the grocery opportunities are because i think most Grocery Stores that i think of are at least 12, 20,000 square feet. Your retail spaces in the community right now are 1500 square feet at the ground floor. Where can we create an opportunity for a Grocery Store . That is really important for the future of the island . Again, the smaller configuration would be for a few years until building two is built out. We want to prioritize one of the smaller bases, 2000, 2500 square feet for grocery, general store type use. One of the images is that the rinkon market is a similar story. That was an area that was all office but becoming more residential. I believe that market there was subsidized back in the day. That is a very small configuration. It really did serve that function for the neighborhood providing a wide variety of goods. It is crowded in there. It has a pretty interesting variety of prepared food as well and kind of thrived off the lunch trade. It was able to survive during the era when Residential Construction was coming now standing on its own. That is a model and there are others out there for how this could function. It is for a few years until our traditional sized grocer can open in building two a little down the road and that can transition to something else. How big is the space in building two again . I believe it is 15 to 20,000 feet. Building two is i believe about 70,000 square feet, but the thought was that the anchor Grocery Store could occupy as much as 30 to 40 of that space as the anchor. I believe the overall vision is that hanger two is really food focused. It has a venue. What about child care . I am glad to see that at the top of your desired list. Maybe that belonged on the must have list. That is finding an operator willing to commit and invest when people are moving in. Temperature. [please stand by] there is just some requirements ive worked around it a little bit. But i do think that child care would be very important. We do have some onisland services already, but were expecting the island to have a lot more families in the future. And we just want to make sure were not repeating some of the same issues that we have, you know, in the mainland of San Francisco where we have child care wait lists, and the wait lists are 2,000 people. Okay, great. And then lets see. Im also curious you cited examples, like mercy and other existing commercial uses on the island. And ive often wondered about whether or not those existing restaurants, which are great, and i go to them, but i wonder what the proportion of local islanders residing on the island are really using those restaurants and retail versus people who are coming from outside of the island . And just be cognizant i think it would be very important for us to make sure we have retail and restaurants that caters to the island residents as opposed to just visitors. Im sure that will come up during your retail study, but i hope we will hear more about that balance. And thats it. Thank you. Thank you very much. Lets go back to what were doing here. The vision actually, were developing a small city from scratch. Thats what Treasury Island and yoba island represent there. Yes, were going to have at the end of the day, almost 8,000 residents, but the vision of Treasure Island is to have the point of destination. So it is not only have all this retail. Everything were doing, we have to look at capacity. And we need to look at the location. And i know from your plan we have the retail corridor, everything all lined up. That is great. For us, here, we will look at the overall map and even see where if there could be if there are suggestions, i think we could do that. There are successful models all over the country. In fact, when we went to new york, we went to visit so many places, thanks to the commissioner, and some of these places have already in brooklyn yard and chelsea island, theyre already doing what we are doing here. They are successful models in the bay area. And some other places, in san diego, already in bart, what we are doing. At the end of the day, any mixed use retail should be, again, accommodating to the residents and also to the visitors out there. The next item on the agenda, if you know, has to do with the parks and open space. Thats going to be crucial because we do also have programs that are going to be tied to that. Everybody bearing in mind that youre not living free on Treasure Island and yoba island, we have all of these parks to maintain and all of the ongoing infrastructure, and all of them are going to be tied to the retail activities. And theyre going to be tied to the use of the parks and the open space. So the economic scale that needs to be ironed out here is also very important. So that the residents of the island, just like the San Francisco mainland, the residents go to where they want to go. You want to provide the basic amenities, but you also want to expand that so that we need to generate that outcome from all of the other places for the visitors, and also to make Treasure Island and yorba islands. You want to attract visitors and workshops, just like theyre doing. And now we have competitors in candlestick point, and well have competitors in chase. Have you seen this chase . You should borrow their plan. They are highly ambitious. In fact, their plan is to have everyone go to chase, and so what you have here is very impressive, but it is the beginning of this conversation, and, yes, you can see the commissioners here have a lot of ideas because most of us arent actively involved with planning, and we want to bring you back for further dia dialogues. Are there any questions from the audience . Oh, mr. Beck, please. I was just going to add then, in conjunction with the child care conversation, t. I. C. D. Has been taking the lead on the retail planning, but were both sitting down with one Treasure Island and looking at the communities as a whole and child care is a part of that, and the other aspects from the communitys facility plan, rooms and spaces, etc. Were having some conversations about that and where that is best located and distributed throughout the island. We also just were pointing out for people at home and in part of the conversation, that retail focus along the Island Center there, along the Southern Side of the island, also ties in with the transportation plan. The Ferry Terminal is there right in front of building one. The a. C. Transit and muni bus service terminate in front of hangar two. And then we have the onisland shuttle that takes people from that transportation hub from the island out to the rest of the island, but could take residents to the Grocery Store and back without leaving the island. So just the interplay between the Transportation Planning and the retail planning in that respect. Thank you. Anyone have to convey the last message here . Ours is a Public Private partnership. What were also doing here in educating the public is to make this a signature Public Private Partnership Development in the country. Everything we have here, the decisions, needs to be mutual. Any activity, open ferry or doing anything, please, we all need to be involved there. We have constituents we need to convey. So hearing about a ferry or something in the press, i dont think we want to go that way. These commissioners here should be part of that, and were out there, and were community leaders, and extremely very active in San Francisco, and never a day goes by do we not get asked just about everything in the press and everywhere. And so we are working alongside here to make sure that every decision, public decision that were going to be making on the island, and just go with all of our partners, s. F. C. T. A. , and everybody, this commission, and any of the signatures, and how we want to embark on doing that, we all need to be together so we can convey to the city what we are doing, and what this project translates, and we provide the platform into doing this, communicating with the public. So naturally, everything should come before us, before it even gets out there. So please, help to convey that to everyone. Thank you, sir. Next on the agenda . Item number 6, parks operations update. Ill be presenting on this item today. Martin wiggins, who is managing the design and construction of the parks and also along with mary ann, playing a leading role in this work, is here. So today i just wanted to lay out the early parks delivery schedule. Weve talked generally about parks, but i kind of wanted to list out over the next couple of years which parks we expect to come online. Walk through our progress on developing hilltop park o. M m. Manual, and then some of the status of the maintenance yard requirements that weve been developing. So during next fiscal year, towards the end of the fiscal year, we expect eastern hilltop park, so this is the we talk about hilltop park in the eastern and western sides. The western side is where the fujimoto sculpture will be. Eastern hilltop park is where the signal tower used to be. It is a smaller portion of the park. The eastern portion we expect to complete construction late next fiscal year, as well as potentially the dog park on yorba buena road being completed in that timeframe, and being turned over to tida for operation. In fiscal year 21 22, we expect several more parks to be coming on line. The western hilltop park, including the side of the piece, clipper cove beach, the storm Water Gardens on yorba buena islands, the marina plaza, the cultural 1 park, where the chapel is, and the first block of the city side park. So well be needing to plan in next years budget, even if it is only for a few months, to maintain the eastern hilltop park in yorba buena island dog park, but the following fiscal year well have many more facilities coming in over the course of that year. So for hilltop park, o o. M. N. Manual, we have the larger o. M. Standards, that are setting the standards of maintenance islandwide, but this hilltop park will be the heights specific element for the specific finishes anand plantings within hilltop park. It will inform our development for next year. The draft table of contents that weve developed, and there is a little more meat behind this, but i wanted to keep it at a high level today. Defining the levels of service for maintenance in the park, aggregating the warranty information, both contractor warranties for plants establishment and other things, as well as the physical warranties of the Equipment Installed in the park. And the landscaping section, including habitat and management elements, the planting concept and strategy for the park, and the planning locations and types and irrigation systems. Site furnishings, and then the site paving, lighting and electrical, and special features of the park, including not in this not in the eastern hilltop park, but any sculpture, art pieces, slope maintenance, these salvaged water tanks on both high points in the eastern and western park that will be converted into landscape elements, as well as trails and restoration areas. Special guidelines, and then really getting into the details of the site Service Guidelines and check lists, so these will be kind of the daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal and annual check lists for maintenance and inspection. Covering lawn, ground cover, tree and shrub care, guidelines for irrigation, tree pruning, weeding, integrative Pest Management programs, the fences and site furnishings, and Janitorial Services and standards, including litter, graffiti removal, sweeping and other minor services. And then the maintenance of lighting, electrical, plumbing and other equipment, as well as site drainage maintenance and observation and reporting of items requiring repair. On the maintenance yard program requirements, up front there is just the space required for the vehicles and equipment that maintenance forces will be utilizing. Preliminary estimate is 15 or more vehicles, including lightduty trucks, heavyduty trucks, heavy equipment, and potentially some rechargeable kind of coachman, small vehicles as well. E. V. Charging facilities, bike racks and storage, and then material storage for oil amendments, mulch and other surfacing materials, plantings, street furniture, backstock for garbage cans, liners, benches, light poles. Materials in support of events within the parks and open space. And then administrative and engineering spaces, offices, record storage, conference room, shower and locker room facilities, warehouse for the storage of equipment and tools, as well as waste management. Well need to bring the debris from the neighborhood, well need to do some onsite processing before that material is put into compactors for removal by recology, as well as composting of green waste. Translating these needs into space requirements, were looking at a yard of roughly 4500 square feet. And administrative and Engineering Building of 500 square feet, 450 to 600 square feet, a warehouse of at least 400 square feet. And then not in these areas were still evaluating it, which is any area required for a nursery operation, if we wanted to have that on the island and it wasnt incorporated into the urban farm area, but there is a potential partnership or leveraging of the urban farm, as we expect the maintenance arm will be located on the edge of the urban farm. And then satellite facilities and a potential y. B. I. Annex, and locations for temporary storage of trash as it is collected from individual cans, before it is hauled back to the Central Location for processing. As well as small tools and other equipment that you wouldnt want to have to run back and forth to the main yard on a frequent basis. So as we go forward towards january, again, really focusing on producing the draft Treasure Island parks code, so we have initiate a Public Outreach and Comment Period before eventually taking that to the board of supervisors. The development of maintenance standards, you know, having that draft maintenance standards manual, as well as finalizing the o. M. Manual, as well as the budget for next year. With that, ill take questions. Yes. Thank you, bob, for getting to the point where we are talking about the operations and maintenance manual. It is something that weve been asking for. And i think the budget that goes along with this is something that were also waiting for, that is in the process of being developed. And so were hoping to see that some time soon. Yes. The in each and every part of this, there is long discussions that can be had. So this is sort of an overall. I think that the one big comment that i would like to make is the importance of sustainability. And in the overlay of all that we do on Treasure Island, and especially as we restore the habitat, the natural habitat for birds and vegetation, that we look at sustainability as being the underlying principle for all that we do with regards to the landscape that is on Treasure Island. I actually just spent a week at the new York Botanical garden i mentioned that the other day and i was so impressed with how they are managing that sustainability in everything that they did, from the soils, from the hydrology, to the exroafting, composting i thiy have about 250 acres as well. And i would like to have that particular event, as we look at the operations and maintenance manual, and as we draw up the plans for it. Each one of these topics, i think, we can certainly delve into. Perhaps not here, but what i would like to suggest, actually, is that we will set up a committee on the board to look on sustainability. We do have ike, who is with the academy of sciences, who i think can also bring resources to us, ideas to us. Id like to see some collaborations with other institutions in the city, like the San Francisco Botanical Garden as well, as we look at what were going to do in all of these different areas. For instance, i do think that we will need to have a horticultural staff that is knowledgeable about the plants that we plant, what their requirements are, and thats something that i would like to see furthered. The composting facility, for instance, it needs a wide area. And i think i am hopeful that we can have a lot of our soil a lot of our soil and the compost is like gold for the plants, and that we can have a big enough facility that we can process our own green material and u. S. It for island soil. And so id like for you to look specifically at that composting facility because i dont think that the yard of 4500 square feet is going to be sufficient, if you youre really having a sufficient compost facility. And we can look at other models as well. I think in general today, thats my overriding comment. But in each one of these areas, such as the Pest Management system, you know, the type of plantings that were going to have, the type of irrigation all of that, i think we can have further conversations on. And so i look forward to having the draft manual and having specific discussions on each some of the major topics in that manual. Thank you. Commissioner lye . I would add that i would be supportive of a new committee focused on sustainability, that director sonn had mentioned. If were going to set up a new community, focus on that umbrella, and it should probably cover other topics of sustainability across the island, including continuing to evaluate our Renewal Energy program, as well as our all of our great water systems. I think there is a lot of things on the island that touches sustainability or resiliency issues, and because weve done a lot of preplanning around the islands green efforts, i think it probably makes sense to have a dedicated time where we can talk about these issues more specifically. Thanks. Yes. Thank you. And i also am very in agreement with that. And, concurrently, we also need to be talking about the maintenance, the management of the parks. I think all of what youve done today is really great, or, actually, part of the program that we need to do. However, the overriding issue that we need to resolve and we need to work on immediately, simultaneously, it is about the parks maintenance. We saw, again, successful models on the east coast and all over the place. What we have here is a great opportunity to collaborate and also do things that San Francisco has never done before. I think one of the struggling issues in the city, after the dissolution of the San Francisco Development Agencies that we have created all these facilities, all these parks, and now we have to grapple with the maintenance of them. With Treasure Island, we know what the issues are, and we also know where we want to go, especially since, again, i need to refer to the point of destination, and treasure and yorba buena must also be selfsustainable, also. Whatever the proceeds we get and how we manage all of these parks goes back to the infrastructure, goes back to the maintenance, goes back to making this a vibrant place that you really want it to be. So this is great. And we will continue this dialogue. Thank you, mr. Beck, for this information. Okay. Any other Public Comments on this particular item . None . Okay. Go to the next item. Item number 7, discussion of future agenda items by directors. Okay, commissioners, any i think we will continue to parks open space, and in particular, we would like to see some movement, again, on the management. This is a very, very important matter. Thank you. Let me see. Any other suggestions, commissioners . Im sure you can relay that later, what you would like to see in future agenda. Okay, thank you all for being here and for all of those watching remotely and for the staff and our development partners. Thank you. Have a great day. The meeting is adjourned. Thank you
