other way. the near term improvements-we would be leaving the southbound bayshore sidewalk as is and have it continued to use by southbound bicyclist and pedestrians but then we would be widening the northbound bike lane to allow for more flexible use. let me back up for a second. so, we are actually proposing improvements in two phases for segments mn and o. one is appellant only upgrades we think we can implement soon and second set are longer term improvements that require hardscape change jz would take a longer to implement and have more stalshz changes so the plan view here are near term improvements so they are just paint only, which is why we are not widening that sidewalk and let tg continue to be use frd southbound bicyclist and pedestrians but trying to do paint improvement troothe northbound bike lane oto capture what is needed which is shared flexible space for users. other improvements include new bike lanes on gerold, continental cros walks on gerold and marin and bayshore and [inaudible] further south. intersection improvements such as paint and tracking marks and green bake shareoes to guide likealist. that is it so i'll move to the longer term proposed projects which required more substantial changes. here we really are looking at widening the sidewalk to create a shared two way bike path sidewalk on north bound bayshore and redesigning the medium into a bulb- out at gerold and bayshore and signalize the right turn which is a big improvement for pedestrians trying to make the crossing. relocate utility pole squz streelt lamp tooz the outer edges making more room for everybody's using that space and we'll install intersection markings and green back shareoes as needed to guide cyclist and pedestrians. in addition to this as part of the effort but separate project weez are doing spot impruchb provements and want to talk about those. one includes some changes that already went on on the western driveway entrance. there use today be a one inch lift a lot of cyclist would catch tires. we resurfaced it . we will add stripejug posts to delineate that entrance and that will happen towards the end the year. and then the other set of improvementerize way findings. we already generated the signs are working on installment and installed the end of the year beginning of next year. where do we go from here? in the report and in front of you you see project cost for the two segments. segments f and g including design and construction have been estimated at $454, 019 and mno and $694, 192. those project cost include design and construction and for mn and o include near term and long term proposed changes. we do have smp funding identified in mta's cip that are earmarked towards mn and o. >> how did you determine that particular allocation for funding would go to segment mn and o opposed to f and g? >> that is in mta plan and because it is close to thumount needed for mn and o and ready to start moving on those segments we started the process move frgward with those segment squz looking for funding for segments f and g. >> my question is, i understand it is probably easier to go with mn and o because the funding matches the amount orphmoney from mta, but i'm unable to determine which is high priority. which of the two segments is higher priority than the other? >> they have relatively equal prioritys. mn and o that funding is coming out of mta, cit budget and it is road work so it makes sense to use that funding for improvements that we are able to manage. segments f and g are strithly for the bike and pedestrian path and less on the roadway so we are working with dpw to really look for funding for those segments. at this point segments mn and o are mta led project so use said mta funds- >> supervisor campos. >> thank you, commissioner cohen. what is the completion date for both segments? >> i will flip to the next slide. segment frz mn and o because we have the funding in place we have started that process. we are going to be finishing up preliminary engineering by spring of 2017 and hope to have the near term improvements, the paint only improvements in place by summer next year and detail design will happen same time and home to go into construction on mn and o in twnt 18. f and g we like to put together a schedule and move forward and based on funding needs and requests. >> i think it is good that you are moving for ward with segments mno, but dont think that is accept able on the other segment. i represent that district and think they are both important why are not not both moving at the same time? >> it is a matter of funding. i can go back to mta with that request- >> is there funding the ta is gibbing to this project because i think we should withhold the funding from had mta. it just isn't acceptable you have to make it happen at the same time and don't know if-i think this is important for supervisor cohen and that segment should go forward as quickly as possible but important for us too, so maybe can we call mr. reiskin and see if he can respond to that and cta? i think we need to have both segments move forward at the same time. >> i agree which is why my-it is like having two kids and having to make a selection which will get what and how to prioritize it. very uncomfortable situation so i wanted a better understanding how that was determined. but just way of background, item 5 is a update on just the hairball project and its entirety and about a year ago i directed approximately $100 thousand of the available $600 thousand in tip funds to go to capital improvements towards the hairball so this presentation is refreshing and just curious to know where it is going. the hairball has been a problem for very long time. >> we agree. >> a very long time and wub one of the things the presentation didn't touch on but will make assumptions is with improvements it will help relax the homeless crisis that you see that exists in the hairball which is also a incredibly dangerous element that the presentation didn't necessarily reflect. people as you are probably aware-it is cleaned up now but there was a period orphtime and supervisor campos can attest there were people living under the freeway right where cesar chavez-where everything merges. i know it is cesar chavez and bayshore heading to the mission. there was what raised my attention over a year ago is there was a homicide and a body was found right under that freeway overpass. i also get letters from constituents from potrero hill travel toog the bayview or going the dogpatch neighborhood and the bayview folks coming to northeast mission that ride the bike trail. also bike to work day, i have driven that route at least three times and it is truly-there is a reason they call it a hairball. it is scary and dangerous and have a lot of activity and trucks and cars and pedestrians and you have close to a park, the skate park and also have cyclist all traveling along this particular thoroughfair. a lot of work needs to be done so want to compliment the work you have done and acknowledge that we have come a long way, but i want to also recognize we have a long way to go. i'm curious-i saw there are other segments-we didn't talk about-we talked about m, n and o and i think a and g? >> f and g. >> as you saw in the earlier slide that there is a, c and e-there is a and d. there are several different nodes that all encompasses the hairball. from the big picture, what is the timeline or if there-what is the projected schedule to begin to dissect the hairball in its entirety? >> at this point the focus was to-tasked to look at these certain areas and the idea behind that being that start improvements is a catalyst for change. >> i understand you have to start somewhere and love the areas you started. >> those areas came out of that planning process from 2012 and why we started with those areas. >> you already started doing due diligence so building off previous- >> yes. there were 4 to begin and extended m, n and o because o is right there and makes sense to include and does not-also some improvements extend along gerold which is also out of the scope but very important in terms of bringing people in. and letting people come out safely. the priority-the reason those segments were looked at was because of the previous planning process and moving forward there is absolutely the recognition that the hairball needs to look at-we do also recognize it is a much larger planning process. right now our strategy is move forward with these key segments and coming years seek additional funding for a larger planning process where we need to go back out to the community and reprioritize the remaining segment jz what to do next and what to address. >> thank you. >> that is in our mindset. >> director campos. >> i think it is good that it is move frgward with mno and think that should move forward as quickly as possible, but everything else you said isn't acceptable and won't fly so happy to call for a hearing at the board of supervisors. i think it is great you are move frgward with the other phase but you need to-it isn't enough to come and say it is priority in the next few years and make it happen. i need to get a specific plan for how you will fund it and start as close to what you are doing with the other phases as possible. >> sure. she didn't necessarily initiate the process. i directed-i asked for this particular study, so perhaps what i can do is work with supervisor elect roanen to really begin to direct if there is new in-tip money. i don't know how that works. >> i dont think it should wait. i'm sure supervise r roanen elect is happy to work with you and will work with you, but i want to see something specific about this before. >> you mean like next month? >> yeah. i'm happy to call a hearing. i'll introduce a hearing request today at the board of supervisors but this has been a issue for a long time and i don't think i would be doing my job as the supervisor for district 9 if this project moves forward but only one part of it is funded. i think we need to make sure that there is funding for all of it. it is issue of equity. >> i'm happy to bring this back. we just wrapped up this phase so haven't moved on with the next phases so i'm happy to go back to my supervisor and maybe come back at the next appropriate meeting and have someone present or myself present on a path forward closing some of the loops with the funding gaps. >> we'll introduce a hearing request today at the board of supervisors so we can scr a hearing equest. >> thank you for your presentation. >> thank you. director cohen. >> thank. >> open up for public comment. thank you talia for the great presentation. anyone from the public that would like to speak? >> i'm for the next item. >> i was hoping you might be able to bring auditing up to a adequate level. >> sir, could you state your name? >> kenneth. hoping you may bring auditing up to a adequate level 6789 under the impression auditing declined by a full 1/3 in recent year jz may explain the >> are you talk ugabout item 5? >> just auditing, we were talking about auditing in general. >> we adopted the audit. >> alright. no problem. thank you. >> seeing no other public comment let's close public comment. i wondering colleagues how you want to move this item forward. >> information item? >> just file. >> great. thank you. mr. stamose, next item. >> item 6, state and federal legislative update. this is information item >> amber grab with transportation authority. we don't have a matrix because stailt session wrapped up but have a lot to talk about after the election. first at the federal level right now it is somewhat of avicium of information. there is big discussion of infrastructure package and investment which we'll be work wg our state delegation and mtc and other stakeholders trying to advance san francisco priorities at the federal level once we have a better understanding of what the projects and programs will be. at the regional level or the state level, we had somewhat good news at the projected failure of prop 53 which would have required state approval of infrastructure projects oferk 2 billion letting la vote on a project moving forward in san francisco. at the regional level we had more good news. the bart measure passed as did sales tax increase in santa clara county. unfortunately our revenue measure and the one in contra costa didn't move forward but there a few bright spots. other measures that were similar to ours but on a city level, not a conte level, the general tax plus policy statement for local streets and roads and affordable housing did pass and also pesage of measures that institute policies related to housing affordable to things like rent control so that was a positive aspect. osat the regional level this impacts the information we provided to the inmetropolitan transportation commission regarding adaupgds of plan bay area. i think it is this thursday, so it was a last minute-the measure did want pass, so what did we do? you take the revenue out of the plan and luckily we thought ahead to this unfortunate day and were able to remove the funding from plan bay area by reducing programs not having to strike any projects from plan bay area. we will be fine moving forward. with respect to j and k i think we are all thinking forward as far as learning lesson and what can happen. i just wanted to give you a quick few thoughts on its impact to the transportation authority and transportation in the the city in general. it means there are specific projects we will need to find new funds for and specific programs priority like state of good repair for roads and transit, muni forward and walk first. the specific projects will impact is cal train electrification, bart car, expansion projeblth, manage lanes so these are core component of the transit study and then cut to the funding we needed for preliminary engineering and planning for the next phase of the major rail capacity invest ement in the bay area. i think all of these deficits and especially the planning deficits putss at a disadvantage of attracting regional, state and federal dollars so places like la, contra costa-sorry, vta in the south bay are in a better position because they have money to get projects in the pipeline and line up to be more competitive so have to figure a different way to do that. looking forward, we-the mayor has triggered the policy option to cancel prop j, which did show a significant interest in transportation across the city. i think we are all looking forward given that interest to 2018 and beyond. we are also looking forward to mtc putting regional measure 3 potentially on the ballot in 2018, which would increase i believe talking about a $2 increase on the bridge tols over several years. with that, happy to answer any questions you have. start the matrix next month. >> thank you for krauss the positive in the been gg and challenge in the end. open up for public comment. anyone who would like to speak from the public?

>> yes. please make sure to silence electronic devices. items acted upon today will appear on the november 28 board of supervisors agenda unless under the wise stated >> thank you. supervisor weiner has requested to be excused from today's meeting. >> moved and seconded. >> without objection that motion passes unanimously >>[gavel] >> clerk: one please >> item number one resolution approving the street name of martin avenue fronting street other by brewster street >> thank you. i believe we have staff from dpw here today to make a brief presentation on this item. welcome the floor is yours. >> good afternoon supervisor. department of public works. as mentioned this resolution is to name an unnamed street in honor of mr. martin ron. was a professional was professional land surveyor well known in the land surveying community construction community is established as his business in 1968. and was dedicated to achieving and expertise in the intricate procedures of land surveying in san francisco. since then, mr. bonds company has been involved with nearly every major project in the city. to this date. it's now being run by second and third-generation license land surveyors at the helm. so this was a project that was in the bernal heights area. part of brewster street extension project. which has been going on for a few years now. we are nearing completion with naming and dedication. that's the much it. if you have questions, concerning the project or street naming all the happy to answer. >> thank you very much. supervisor them has one has to question the was i have no questions but i cannot tell you the number of maps i've seen with mr. ron's name on it and i know little bit about his family's history did i believe the family are survivors of the holocaust and i'm delighted to name an unnamed street after him could of course need naming names streets is always extremely controversial but when you find unnamed streets usually works out okay >> a lot easier, yes or >> i'm in agreement i think it's an excellent idea to write thoughtful. glad we're doing this. will take public comment. so ladies and gentlemen at this time i'd like to invite you to come up for public comment on item number one. reminder you will have 2 min. 2 min. to speak you'll hear a soft i'm indicating about 30 seconds remaining on your 2 min. allotment you please come up to the podium if you'd like to speak on this item. >> good afternoon supervisors. my name is mary medic. on the residence of bernal heights and i've lived here since 1994. most people think the neighborhood they live in is a special place and we are no different in bernal heights that we really feel we have a special niche are there that we love and take care of. the proposal to change the name-it wasn't easy to find this good was posted on two lampposts on brewster street but you would have to be walking along. look at the post and find out this was going to happen. someone brought it to my attention and i send out information to approximately 15 or 20 neighbors in the approximate area of the area in question. i have received approximately 8-10 responses. the most significant response is that the neighbors wish no change. after you live there a little while, you know that is rooster street and there is a sign at the beginning of the street that says brewster. there have been a few other names that have been suggested among which, if they--if we want i can diebold them to you, but i have to say that having lived there, every ups driver, every fedex driver every person who delivers pizza in the city or to bernal heights and every cab knows how to get to our home. interestingly enough, i have to live on this area called brewster street but my address is 55 rutledge. so it's a quaint little tale and we are all very used to rooster street and we feel that by introducing another name into this small area with the disruptive and further confusing. if you have any questions or be glad to answer. >> no questions? thank you. any other members of the public that would like to speak of on this item? please, come up. >> good afternoon supervisors. my name is perry medic. i live it 55 rutledge. the woman who just spoke that's my wife. anyway, our house faces on this so-called unnamed street. but as always been known as brewster street. this really is not unnamed in our neighborhood. i just want to emphasize that. various merchants trying to find our house, they find it very difficult and for you to change it to another name like this would make that process even more difficult. so i would kindly request the situation on that section of the street remain unchanged. iq. >> thanks. any other members of the public that would like to speak? public comment is closed. at this time >>[gavel] >> quick question for the dpw representative. how would like change for the people that live on brewster street? >> theoretically the area being renamed or i should say be named, not renamed, there's nobody living there. actually going over dpw property at the moment. so addresses will not change. >> no economic impact? >> no. not for the local households. there are signs in the area that can be confusing. other than that, there's no direct change to people living in the neighborhood. >> okay. >> mdm. chairman if i may respectfully make a suggestion to normally when we rename a street the policy is that for a period of a believe five years, the two names are on the street. granted, this is on names public right-of-way but perhaps in deference to the individuals that testified today, we could have the sign read, martin m ron street -rooster for a period of time. i'm not pointing put it in the resolution unless the chairwoman wishes to do so but as a family suggestion, that might help the transition here? >> we could certainly do that. they departed the sign. we follow everything is the same procedures one of the how this would be an issue. >> that sounds good. to provide to peskin i'm happy to entertain it if you are put it as a motion to change the language good the other thing is i want to understand no one lives there. right? at the public right-of-way? >> correct. it's the roads are built by dpw and it sort of bands off of brewster street property or >> wield this-is this a land with the street you guys built, is their land that's available around? with 30 people residential living at some point in the future >> most likely, not. just because the lots are substandard now for planning, most likely probably remain as open space in that area >> okay thank you very much. wanamaker motions of her visor because if not we can accept it >> i could. why don't we hear if you're willing to reopen public comment mdm. chairman maybe we can ask the nearby neighbors on rutledge whether not i would be an acceptable compromise for them >> i'm going to open up, reopen public comment at this time it is a reminder you 2 min. to speak >>[gavel] >> ma'am, do want to share your thoughts on this compromise? >> thank you for your opening comments. i do want to say that there is a stretch of undeveloped lands in this area and often times cars from out of the neighborhood park along their. they throw beer cans, condoms, debris in this undeveloped lands. recently, the neighbors in the area and after many calls to the city to please, and cleaned it up, there've never done so. i should not saying never. they came one time and i actually just which of the area. having done trees recklessly.. it was just terrible. so recently we've had two days where the neighbors have got out there. they have cleaned the streets. they print the foliage, swept, washington post streets and they really take pride in this area. it is interesting grab a compromise but i don't know how naming a street martin ron, in all respect to him, and brewster will make this any less confusing. >> thank you. public comment is closed. at this time >>[gavel] >> let's do with the legislation we have in front was >> i know amendment and i would suggest we send this item to the full board recommendation as it is >> great. without objection it passes >>[gavel] >> clerk please call item to >> item number two >> ordinance amenity minister to go to berlin city from entering into an extending the leases the extraction of fossil fuel >> supervisor avalos is a sponsor for this item. he's not able to join us today but we have his aide germy public will be speaking on this item was >> welcome >> good afternoon. germy public legislative aide to supervisor avalos did this the ordinance was before you the full board of supervisors and full hearing of the budget and finance committee did the last moment of planning department realized they in overtly do not require ceqa finding and 78 amendment of for you at the finding that this amendment is categorically exempt from sql makes reference to planning's findings on that so we would ask you simply forward this to the full board again as a committee reports after public comment thank you for your time >> thank you very much. >> adam chairman i the couple questions for the department of real estate because i see them sitting there and in so far-i'd knowledge am a cosponsor of this measure but i actually have three questions for the department of real estate. one is: do you have any sense of what the sale price assuming the sale of the 800 acre property subject to the deed restriction would be? >> currently i don't have that information get ugly happy to get it to you >> the second question is, i assume that pursuant to chapter 23 of the administrative code the sale and form of deed would have to come back to this body that were sold? >> correct. i believe director of date mention that at the committee at budget and finance. any transactions that sort would come back to the full board >> then the third question is, how did you come up with the thousand dollars per acre for the solar energy revenue estimate? >> i deferred to the puc on that matter. >> is the puc here? >> john-with the puc do we can come back and explain how we have that dollar amount could >> if you can be ready to do that tomorrow when we consider the item at the full board all be curious to see what solar comps you have at of current county that would substantiate that. >> we will get that for you >> think it does take public comment. any member of the public like to join us in this conversation? item 2 is open for public comment at seeing none, public comment is closed. >>[gavel] >> all right. colleagues, or supervisor jim peskin motion for this item? >> i move we move this to the full board with a recommendation against the was as a committee report >> as a committee report without that passes >>[gavel] >> clerk item 3 please >> item 3 a ordinance amending the planning code to change the requirement from five-to two years to the student housing >> we have missed andrea powers from supervisor weiner's office. as well as [inaudible]. >> good afternoon pres. cohen and supervisor peskin. san francisco issuers staggering number of approximate 40,000 student beds that this is just truly remarkable. these 40,000 students compete with everyone else is looking for housing which makes housing more expensive for everyone. if you years ago supervisor generator offered legislation to identify new student housing while making it abundantly clear it's illegal to convert existing general population housing to student housing in san francisco. student housing as it is today is generally exempt from inclusion rate requirements so long as that housing remains a student housing. hence existing law requires that any point housing entitled the student housing later decides to convert to general population housing at that point the project is required to meet all of its inclusionary requirements, plus intricate today ordinance in no way alters this requirements. student housing to be provided in two ways. the educational institution itself can build housing for its own students or, when a more educational institutions can band together and master lease a building that is built by third-party. in the latter circumstance the current law requires that the master lease be for a minimum of five years and has the planning commission report points out which is in your packet, those five years are said to be a significant barrier for educational institutions for overriding of reason. in fact there was a hearing earlier this year the land use committee, on this matter and he educational institutions brought this up as being one the primary obstacles to entering into housing for their students. so again this legislation to make amends the master lease requirement from being five years to two years. again, as is today at any point whether it's at five years, two years, 10 years, 20 years, the housing converts to general population housing their required to meet all their inclusionary housing requirements and again >> can you repeat the last five? so when i read this over the weekend i was like, wait a minute five years-two years. you are saying if at the end of the two-year master lease they don't have another two-year or five-year master lease, then other provisions kick in the require them to do inclusionary housing or how does that work? >> yesterday whenever the inclusionary housing reforms were at the time the project was originally entitled, they would be essentially be out of that those requirements. they could not convert to general population without plus playing interest over that die for deferred. >> how does the planning department-i know you was to work there but how does the planning department enforce that? >> so it's a relationship between mou acd and the planning department. the original ordinance requires these projects to report annually to mou in terms of whose attendance are and who's living in these buildings. if any violation in fact that son under penalty of perjury just like the much of the house in the city. except that the planning apartment is the entity that their commission entitles the original project to do with any enforcement issues should they arise. >> but at the end of the two years they either have to do another master lease in that location or another location, or the out with interest? >> would talk about a specific building so it's that location. at two years, should they choose to revert back to general population housing perhaps all that erin speak of is more concretely, but they are required to pay and presumably other things as well. >> is this a counterintuitive to me because it seems to me you would want to enter into a total longer master lease because reduces your risk of having to pay the inclusionary fee. i mean, >> i think i'm happy >> have addictive flexibility but it seems like two years as a short-term act on >> is also a letter from a variety of educational institutions that describe it >> i saw it. >> the concern is that being for the smaller institutions in particular, the longer commitment as a being that and to being a risk for them as well. so having a shorter duration it's better for them without of course though always have the option to renew generally speaking that would be that they would >> that make sense to make it was there any consideration by supervisor weiner's office to have a size threshold differentiation? >> no. when going back to when we originally offered the legislation we totally made up to five years. that's something that seemed reason it wasn't necessarily based on a feedback we received at that point. we been told that five years is too much for these institutions and again i think the point to co-op supervisor peskin's boardroom this master lease provision generally is used by small institutions are the large institutions are presumably opening their own housing. >> it seems like there's a sea difference between uc hastings, albeit the not partially subject to local law and the san francisco art institute on chestnut street that has a very small student population. >> right. to your question, no, he did not think about a variation but if you have any thoughts on that i am happy to think about it. >> i am inclined to support our likely outgoing supervisor in his final piece of legislation. >> appreciate that, supervisor. i will hand it over to erin from the planning department >> thank you. >> mr. starr >> thank you supervisors. the planning commission consider this item on september 8 and unanimously voted to recommend approved and make a decision commissioner of the shortage of nearly 40,000 beds in the city and the shortfall insurance that overall housing crisis as students are forced to look for limited and expensive house. they propose ordinance does not change the current law. the ordinance lease in place requirement that student housing projects to fill their inclusionary housing requirement should housing a pretty diverted back to market rate housing. that includes my comments based on the ordinance but am happy to answer any questions you might have >> supervise them as question any questions because >> not that i have enough >> thank you for your presentation. we will go to the public at the time. public comment is open. good to see you. >> good afternoon. the hack is proud to support and past the two pieces of legislation that brought student housing first with supervisor duffy in 2010 and second with supervisor weiner. when the second one past was a lot of news about it and i was getting a call a week from national student housing developers same great get were coming to san francisco. we want to build student housing and three much nothing happens and what became clear is that the schools are really pretty risk averse. they had to carry the small schools had to carry the master leases on their balance sheets. being prayers lease finance and risk averse they do not want to do that. they felt that five years was too much as mr. powers suggested that two years would be something that might entice more of them into master leasing student housing. something that we strongly support and want to see take off the accelerator a lot more. so this actually came at the request. we've heard from some of the small schools. would this work?
