Transcripts For SFGTV Government Access Programming 20240714

Our society and how these people are treated. It affects their capacity to to have sorry. Im having problems going over my words. Im i want to say this right and honor this community because it is about what what what what affects them and how theyre treated in the world. So i think this was going to go to the heart and the intent of the different mandates and incentives that we do have, which is to promote equity in health disparities. I just want to walk you through this on the left. So a lot of our focusing on outcomes, a lot of our metrics are actually gendered. Chlamydia screening is one of our gendered metrics. You can see that in the light blue, so young women are more likely to be screened. Weve done our gender minority population, and the same for straight women compared to sexual minority. And i want to emphasize because of our incomplete data, these are early analysis. Just Something Interesting to think about Going Forward where we can make work to improve Health Equity in this community. For on the right, matching national trends, you see higher diagnosis of depression in this community, and i think that, you know, where were working to do depression training, this is motivation to make sure that were not leaving anybody out as we roll out our Quality Improvement Metrics Department wide. Okay. Okay. So i just want to tie it together and end and say that some of things that were proud of that we want to Carry Forward into the future is prioritizing patient experience. Whatever we get a grievance from this population, we want to make sure were responding with training, making sure that all of our services are inclusive, and were providing good access to the lgbtq community. The big transition for all us, epic, we want to make sure were having a smooth transition to that. Whatever kind of tools weve developed to make sure they understand how to use the various pronouns, and all the tools that we didnt have before, and lastly looking into our disparities and outcomes, so that we can private targets interventions and equity in the lgbtq population. Welcome any questions. Is there any Public Comment . Ive not received any Public Comment for this item. Its now in the hands of the commissio commission. Thank you, miss t scarborough. Dont leave. Okay. Commissioner brown . Thank you for those stories about the lgbtq person. Youd mentioned that wed met our targets currently, which i think allowed another 1. 7 million to flow. You said. I know there are a lot of incentives on the local, state, and federal level. Are there anyplaces in which were any places in which were behind . You know, i think when we compare ourselves to other places in the state and maybe other departments in the city where theyve just given out demographic forms to everybody, they might be having a higher percent of complete than us. While i think were not, quote, unquote, in compliance, i think where we want to be is not where were at right now because wed love to be more in the 80 to 90 complete . And so can can for compliance and reporting, i think were not behind, but when we compare ourselves to our peers, we could be doing more data collection. Also looking at the measure that youre using for implementation and completion, youre using completely other primary care visits for 12 months, so presumably, were going to see higher numbers because anybody that had a visit would be in epic, correct . Yeah. And i think where well also expand because we have more integrated access into the encounters, more information on people who have have had various touches outside of primary care in the department, so i think well see our numbers go up next year. So when we see next year, well see our numbers up around 80, right . Yeah. Okay. Good. Thank you. Commissioner green . Thank you for this incredible work youve done. Im curious about your data gathering, and i have two questions. One, do you have any idea about the individuals that will be entering this data and their collection, and then, to try to get a view of San Francisco in general, can you access this type of epic data from other health centers, like an emergency room at st. Francis or any touch point in the city . Because i think creating a citywide cultural sensitivity is understanding our population and getting as much data as possible. I guess my last question is what is your intended increase in percentages of data . Do you think when you get more of a data, these percentages will change . Those are great questions. Theres some controversy about whether its Demographic Data or whether its clinical data, but the field is shifting to making it Demographic Data. One, it normalizes it, and two it really increases the volume in which you collect compared to if you make it a clinical work flow. So to answer the first question, its a front office work flow. Now, we have a Schedule Star workforce, and theyre the people that are going to be collecting and entering this. Your second question about maybe comparing to other systems around the city as much as we can because the entire city, except for the catholic systems, are on epic. Thats great. I dont think weve thought about that, but with epic and care everywhere, thats possible. Epic has released, just this last year, their more expansie module for data collecting. I think there is some efforts from the office of transgender initiatives and citywide to sort of understand where were at as a city among all of our entities and anywhere we would touch this community . And then, your last question was about our anticipated percentages. Okay. Yeah. I think 80 is where we want to be for the end of this fiscal year. Okay. Thank you. Other questions or comments from commissioners . Commissioner guillermo . I dont have a question. I just wanted to congratulate you on the report and all of the hard work you and your colleagues are doing to establish sort of the baseline information and really sort of set an example for what we should be doing in health care around the collection of data in anything, particularly the coordinated collection, and i think its fortuitous that we have epic and their support. Thank you. So this is only within the department of Public Healths purview. It doesnt include our nonprofit providers at all . Thats a great question. Where we had access to our legacy data systems are more in our department of Public Health . I think that Behavioral Health has been sort of a leader in dealing with multiple contractors and multiple data systems . And i do look forward when they also join us on epic, when we can share our data more easily and also share information which youre all alluding to to have more information about our contractors who are involved with Behavioral Health services. Are there other contractors that you had in mind . So for the current system, they havent switched over to anything, but in their current system, they are supposed to be collecting it. The contractors through Population Health or some of those that its less clear that they are collecting demographics, even, they are not necessarily required to, but its all of those Behavioral Health contractors. And dr. Bennett, could you introduce yourself for the public. Im sorry. Im dr. Ana bennett, and this project was in my purview. Thank you. Itll be interesting to see as we look at the whole city of San Francisco, not just internal to the department, what the data would look like. I think that 80 number would below. I think youll go wait beyond that if we are way beyond that if were able to get that data. And its not easy because it is outside of our epic system. Commissioner chow . Yes, and this is in follow up to your statement about the contractors in the court. The Mental Health contractors are our biggest contractor, and they are on a different system. Yes. Youre saying that that system is currently collecting data within their system . We did put in fields in aven avatar, and so we are monitoring this. So as we go in and create data for the future for this department, then, we should also try to integrate that into the report. Separating out the well, currently, youre kind of looking at epic up to 80 . However you want to present it, maybe presenting it separately also makes sense as you did in terms of psych emergencies and whatnot. But i do think thats an almost of the data of the department that we should be looking at. I think that how were working with partnership with them, i think due to prime resources and structural departments that we have in d. P. H. , more s. F. H. Side, but with our data structures that we used to compile this report are just as stronger currently . I think where we can start to provide you information about b. H. S. , well be including it in our report to the board of supervisors, and id love to share that with all the commissioners, as well, so you can get more information about where Behavioral Health is. Thatll be in about a month. They dont have as much access in b. H. S. To pulling reports as easily as ashley does, but we should have it i think its due midseptember. Thank you. Yeah. Im not sure what the time frame is, but i think for completeness as we are looking at our own department and the data, whether it comes from epic or whether it comes from avatar, i think its very helpful, i think. Okay. Thank you. Thank you, miss scarborough. Yeah, thank you. Okay. Thank you. Commissioners, item ten is other business. Is there other business from the commission . Well, i will note that youve got the calendar in front of you. The next meeting, august 20, will be held at the chinatown ymca. Itll focus on Public Health issues in chinatown. I repeated this and its online, but the meeting will start about 5 00, and itll probably go to about 7 00, and ill email this out to you all. Anything else . Item 11 is a report back to the commission from the j. C. C. , and i believe commissioner chow has that update. I believe we did discussion in open session the medical staff report and approved emergency medicine, orthopaedic medicine, San Francisco network scribe policy, which allows people to actually enter data into the epic system and dermatology Nurse Practitioner guidelines. We did take up the Health Guidelines and the quality reports. We can move on to a consideration for closed session, commissioners. Is there a motion to go into closed session . So moved. Second. All those in favor . Well move into closed session. Thank you. Your things here, and we can move. Now commissioners, now back in session. Im sorry. Motion not to disclose. I apologize, sir. Is there a motion to disclose or not disclose the items that were discussed in closed session. I move not to disclose. I second. All those in favor signify by saying aye . We will not discuss what was discussed in closed session. And now consideration for adjournment. So moved. Second. All those in favor . Take care, everyone. Better. San Francisco Department of environment is a place where climate hits the street. We know that we dont have all the answers. We need to support our local champions, our local community to find Creative Solutions and innovations that help us get to zero waste. Zero waste is sending nothing to landfill or incineration, using reuse and recovery and prevention as ways to achieve zero waste. The Grant Program is a Grant Program specifically for nonprofits in San Francisco to divert material from landfill. Its important to find the San Francisco Produce Market because theres a lot of edible food that can be diverted and they need positions to capture that food and focus on food recovery. San francisco Produce Market is a resource that connects farmers and their produce with businesses in the bay area. I think its a basic human right to have access to healthy foods, and all of this food here is available. Its a matter of creating the infrastructure, creating jobs, and the system whereby none of this goes to waste. Since the beginning of our program in july 2016 to date, weve donated over 1 Million Pounds of produce to our community partners, and thats resulted in over 900,000 meals to people in our community, which were very proud of. Carolyn at the San Francisco Produce Market texts with old produce thats available. The produce is always excellent. We get things like broccoli, brussels sprouts, bell peppers. Everything that we use is nice and fresh, so when our clients get it, they really enjoy it, and its important to me to feel good about what i do, and working in programs such as this really provides that for me. Its helping people. Thats what its really about, and i really enjoy that. The work at the Produce Market for me representing the intersection between environment and community, and when we are working at that intersection, when we are using our resources and our passion and our energy to heal the planet and feed the people, nothing gets better than clerk with that [roll call] clerk mr. Chairman, you do have a quorum. Go ahead and call your next item . Yes, please. Clerk item three is communications. And i did want to note that due to some time constraints, were going to go ahead and call item 14, i believe its the resignation of director reiskin, and then follow with the remaining items. Other than that, i note no other communications. Chair nuru okay. I wanted to note that i have to leave at 10 30. Clerk with that, well go ahead and move into your next item. Chair nuru yes please. Clerk seeing none, item five, executive directors report. Good morning, directors. Im pleased to provide you this morning with our experience today of reopening the Salesforce Transit Center to the public and our move to provide services to both legal and commercial operators. We opened it on july 1, in advance of the reopen, we relaunched or website, salesforcecenter. Com, and utilized traditional and social media to educate the public about the reopening of the center and the services. The park, grand hall and other areas of the Transit Center and other popup retail returned on july 1. The reopening also included a full schedule of free events and activities in the park and im happy to report that we have seen steady and growing use and interest in the park. On july 13, bus Service Began at the bus service with muni and golden gate service, and this sunday, august 11, a. C. Transit and other bus services will resume on the bus deck. We continue to work closely with our transit partners, neighbors, and security Operation Staff to provide a smooth transition back to full operations, and our final milestone will be reached this weekend when we reopen the bus deck for regional service. Our goal it to provide ride is to provide riders with a worldclass service to their destinations. I look forward to working with our partners to do just that. Im happy to report that interest has been robust since the opening and today for your consideration, we have three additional leases representing approximately 4700 square feet and five additional spaces leased. Approval of these leases will increase the Square Footage lease at the Transit Center to 64 . We will discuss the leases in detail as part of the facility operations and leasing updates. Moving on to phase two on the downtown extension, as you know, the federal Transportation Administration or f. T. A. Approved moving forward on phase two next month. I would like to thank f. T. A. For their cooperation in getting this process approved. Its a significant milestone for the advancements of phase two in the downtown extension. Having the approved environmental document and having taken steps to replace the design would place the downtown extension in a position to capture other opportunities under senate bill 1. According to m. T. C. , the program has a funding level of approximately 1. 2 billion statewide over the next two years, a portion of which is already committed. As you know, we applied for funding in january 2018, but we were unsuccessful partly because we did not have an approved environmental document and were not making significant progress on the downtown extension. The next transit application for the program is october 2, and weve already completed our application for submittal. We also look forward for the San Francisco Transportation Authority to complete their peer review so we can complete our project priority the next steps. I would like to share with you the next steps to advance the d. T. X. To be ready in the next two to three years, and dennis, if you can put up that slide. Director, this is a slide that ive been sharing with you and our partners in the last couple years as the specific next steps that we need to do to get to shovel ready in the next three years. Having a solid 30 design will provide us with a robust cost estimate and a robust Risk Assessment that we can use to perform our vallue engineering to determine what our costs to the project would be, what costs to be deferred to later on if theres no funding, and so forth. And then, after that, we could decide on delivery methods and update our project budget based on that information. In the meantime, well also be working with our partners on developing a funding plan. Developing a funding plan is a regional and state effort as well as tjpa effort, so well be working with our federal partners, regional partners and local partners. And then, we would also enter the new starts program in order to capture the 1 billion for funding to the bay area, and then after that, we would be shovel ready at that point. This is a twotothreeyear effort, and it requires a lot of work on behalf of our tjpa partners to do that, and im committed to doing that. So thats d. T. X. At this time, id like to ask dennis tershawn to present the project Labor Agreement reports. Good morning, directors. This may be one of our last p. L. A. Reports for a while, but ill go through some of the details of the meeting in june, and why this may be going into a hiatus at this point. We did hold our meeting on june 20, and the carpenters and electricians were in attendance. Went through the construction temporary update with them, retail leasing. Martha valez gave that, and then, we talked to apprenticeships and veterans. Apprenticeships is incredibly robust, especially with the carpenters, i think theyre noting 6400 apprentices in their group in Northern California at this point. Regarding labor for the last quarter, we had no work stoppages or incidents and zero recorded incidents in the Second Quarter of 2019. And then, the statistics which will be pretty close to our number of 5. 7 million hours worker hours, which is a very impressive number with the program. With the anticipated final acceptance from webcor, technically, what happens in phase one construction is the p. L. A. Goes into a hibernation until phase two starts up again unless the committee chooses to continue it on through the tenant improvements, and we are working with the unions through the tenant improvement process, but technically, the p. L. A. Does carry through final acceptance, and then, it goes back in for phase two. But that completes my presentation for the p. L. A. This quarter. Thank you. My last items to you is to introduce to you lilliana coe. Lilliana, you cant be shy. Youve got to standup over there. Tell the directors how youre going to help me deliver the downtown extension. Oh. As he said, im leilani. I go to high school in the city. So im helping them with the downtown extension, how to put that out there cause it hasnt been publicly announced on any social media platforms, and i think its i live actually in the area. I live downtown, so its actually really cool to see the Transit Center, like, as it progressed over the years . Because i remember seeing it when it was just completely, like, nothing, so yeah. Director, this completes my report. Thank you. Chair nuru thank you. Clerk all right. Well go ahead and call your next item. Item six is a construction closeout update. Good morning, directors. Ron and myself will provide this months construction update. Ill go through the basic contract work status, and then ron will complete with the contract closeout, status, contingency and phase one project. Contract work, this is a graphic that weve been carrying quite a while now to track how long its going to take to get that base contract work done. Anything from the west end breezeways to those rub willing Traffic Signals that took a while to get activated, so im going to give you a quick update and closures on each one of those. A quick update on several things here. Shaw alley, it is a beautiful art display, as well, if you have not seen it, it is a highly beautiful area, and then, the breezeway on the righthand side we call it the breezeway. Its really at the far west end of the Transit Center level. Its closed off to go to the second level until all of the activation for the retail is up there on the second floor, until that gets completed, so those two areas are done. Those Traffic Signals, we did get those done. That was quite a that was one of the more arduous things that we had to deal with, but we got there. Theyve been functioning beautifully and everything seems to be going well with the jay walkers have gone away, and a lot of issues seem to have gone away now that we have those midblock crosswalks fully activated. There are still some ceiling panels, minor, at very, very small areas. Weve finally made some progress, youll see in rons graphic, that southwest is the one that has the most panels out there. But at least from a bus deck standpoint, itll look beautiful come this sunday. Its got a few things to work on, but its been cleaned up and sparkling, its going to look that way for sundaymonday activation. And then, the path. I like walking the path and its great hearing the incredible comments and how packed it is at any time of the way. Its great to see the new pathway is working great. And then, there was one element on the bus ramp that we were tracking. Right underneath on natoma, this is where the food trucks are. That skin that covers up where the structural girters are for the bus ramp, that got completed. So all those projects that we were tracking were done, and ron will talk to you about that in the next few slides. Thank you. Good morning, directors. Thanks, dennis, were true low buttoning truly buttoning up and closing things up and winding out of phase one so mark can have full focus on phase two and operations and i can return to my day job. The trade group status is coming right along. In fact, weve got 14 subcontractors out of 47 done and gone. Weve got 20 that are all but done, whether its a signature away or the last throes of discussions, but that would be whats shown in the blue and the green on the graphic, so were winding up very nicely. That leaves us with 13 subcontractors with webcor that are going to be going through the some sort of dispute resolution process, whether it be a d. R. A. , continued discussions and negotiations or lawsuits of last resort. But were trying to muscle through that. Were looking at the first d. R. A. To be in place or initiated in october, and that would be with mcguire and hester. Theres been a bit of a back and forth with terms and conditions on the on the dispute resolution. Moving along to close out in terms of punch list, were in a handful or couple few hundred items, fairly incidental. This graphic kind of shows you who has punch list items still, and as dennis mentioned, southwest has the bulk of them because they have the skin and the buttoning up. And most of the trends between july and august, youll see, are starting to wind down in terms of number of items. Some are levelled out over the month because theyre waiting for predecessor work to happen. Or in the case of schindler and otis, they have a bulk of items that they want to tackle at the end when predecessor work is complete. So no issues to onmention, really, just processing the closeout of the punch list. Moving on to contingency cost, as you would expect, drawdown on contingency is tapering off. Just the last of the activity out there in terms of signage, and i think the bulk of it was around finishing up the Emergency Response items. In terms of bottom line is we have 43. 9 reserves and contingencies to work with. Youll note that the Program Reserve in july actually went up by 3. 9 minimllion, and thata reflection of the first wave of reconciling the beam issue with contract reduction cost. So all in all, thats moving in the right direction, as well. And then, in terms of budget, the current budget remains at overall 2. 259. 4. Just a little bit of a breakdown. The g. N. C. Contingency remains at 2. 7. The breakdown target of 2. 16. 6 is holding with an anticipation of estimated completion of 2. 17 2. 174 billion, and thats a reflection of a slight uptick as we had gone over design and support contract. And then, again, the tenant improvements in the mission, 301 mission legal. Takes us to an estimated completion of 2. 237 billion, and putting us a bit under budget of overall budget of 2. 259. So were looking forward to wrapping up phase one a bit under the budget, and with that, i can take any questions. Chair nuru thank you. Thank you. Clerk okay. Next item . Chair nuru yes please. Clerk item seven is the facility operations update. Good morning, directors. Martha velez, project updater. So the focus of operations and security activities has been on the dates of july 1, july 13, and august 11. This slide lists the major actions to be ready for those dates. As noted on monday, july 1, we were open with the exception of the bus deck. The part reopened with a full calendar of activities. Ill go over that in a little more detail later on. The s. O. C. Was fully activated. Boston properties began operating the gondola, and the food trucks came back to natoma, and of course we were happy to have the buses and bus decks back on july 13, and were looking forward to the deck reopening on august 11. A common theme heard from residents and businesses was to have the park reopen as soon as possible. This was evident in the number of guests not only enjoying the park but participating in its programs. So in reopening, b. R. V. Brought back a full complement of activities, currently at 22 a week. The trend for the most popular are music events, childrens thank you ve tummy time, and toddler events. Also quite popular is the mix of programmed events while the bar is open. B. R. V. Keeps daily counts in order to continue to refine and enhance its programs. Also, the tjpa link and b. R. V. Are meeting once a month to review the Revenue Generating outreach. Site operations with lincoln, im just going to talk about a few of the items here, the operations, the security and response protocols, and the clipper machines. On cleaning, the staff for weekdays is five for day, two for swing, and two for grave. New to the Transit Center on august 12 is the b. A. R. T. Early bird service, so this service will add 200 to 300 commuters at 4 30 a. M. , but weve decided to wait and see the impact before we add janitorial staff. With regard to operations and Security Response protocols, over the last few months, the transit operators spent numero numerous hours with the tjpa and lincoln to coordinate how we respond to incidents. So in these scenarios, the transit operators communicate to their operations centers, o. C. C. , and to the Transit Center Security Operations center or the s. O. C. , and from there, appropriate personnel are dispatched. Many scenarios have the same response structure, but there are slight variations, depending on what it is, and there were several that we worked through as a team. Lastly, as a point of information, the clipper machines were activated a few weeks ago, and people are using them. On the digital advertising, the main point to highlight is that there are some major brands that wanted to be first on the screens upon the return of the commuters to the bus deck. As such, pearl has wrapped up these commitments with potential to the Transit Center in excess of 500,000 this First Quarter and note that the annual budget for the year is 1. 8 million. This is a really good start and provides a foundation in Building Momentum as pearl pursues other major brands. And as we are doing with b. R. V. , the tjpa, lincoln, and pearl are meeting on a monthly basis to review the revenuegenerating activities. The popup retail, a few highlights highlights. As noted, the food trucks came back online between noon and 2 00 p. M. There is a bar in the park, run by off the grid. They are currently open on wednesday through fridays, starting at 2 00 p. M. However, they are monitoring the counts that b. R. V. Keeps and will be adjusting accordingly. The grand hall is waiting on a wait and see pattern. The wayfinding and signs. As you may recall, this board authorized 100,000 in the fy 1920 to do a wayfind analysis in the Transit Center. As such, the existing signs was enhanced. What you see on the slides are samples on the enhancements. The tjpa is fortunate to be able to partner with m. T. C. The two vendors from the m. T. C. Design bench are preparing proposals due to the working group the week of august 19. The working group is a. C. Transit, m. T. C. , and the prospective jurtjpa. So the expectation is therell be a way forward the beginning of september. These next few slides are about transit operations. The ground level at muni is in full operations, and as dennis mentioned, m. T. A. Was able to complete its work at the crosswalks by july 1, so the circulation is pedestrian friendly. With regard to the bus deck, the major work was completing the beam repairs and putting everything back together. That work is now done with minor items being done this week, including a thorough cleaning of the bus clean, so we look forward to august 11. This slide is a summary of the Transit Centers occupancy. Note the greyhound and amtrak remain at the temporary terminal. The start of the season is august, so they decided not to move it over. They told us they plan to move over midseptember to late september but have not given us an exact date yet. With amtrak, a date has not been provided, but tjpa is working with capital corridors on working on a temporary agreement until the permanent is signed. This would be at no cost to tjpa in that the agreement with capital corridors is they would carry the operating cost. When a. C. Transit moved to the Transit Center starting august 11, blocks three and four of the temporary terminal will be fenced off, and then, block two will remain open or unfenced. So sydney is going to give a brief update. Good morning, directors. Sydney sansome. Tjpa Security Guard and ambassador contractor has completed restaffing and initial training in support of reopen. Moving forward our priorities will be on ongoing training and standardization. The ambassadors are providing a friendly helpful presence in salesforce park and trained to assist those in need. Theyve been working with b. R. V. To provide an exceptional Customer Experience in the park. The public is responding very well. Thank you. So im going to move on to the retail leasing. This first lease is is fev chocolates to occupy suite 119 in the natoma street side of the Transit Center. Its a chocolate shop. The owner has been in business in San Francisco for ten years, however, theyve distributed their hand crafted chocolates through other outlets like gift shops, restaurants, and also online, so this would be their first location. This next lease is dimbels to occupy a space in the Transit Center. It shows a positive cash flow over the term of the lease of 1. 2 million. It will be run by two locally renouned chefs with combined experience of more than 70 years in restaurant operations, however, for the owner, this is her first location. And then finally, we have dama. Dama is the legal name of the entity, which have an acronym for the owners. They are here today. They wanted to be a part of this. The restaurant will be named aquolina. The table in front of you shows a positive cash flow over the term of the lease of 3. 26 million. Loc locally owned, it will be an italian restaurant. This is their second location, however, they also have a location in coit tower. Their menuwill feature pasta cooked in front of you in three minutes, and also feature pizza and other fare. If you extrapolate the 4. 2 million in stable rent out to the 91,000plus square feet, were trending at about 6. 5 million in potential stablized revenue which is over the initial link in proforma. This is to show you the coming banners placed in the Transit Center on the lease spaces to continue to draw activity and interest as people are walking around, enjoying the artwork. These were installed in early july. When the leases presented to you today are finalized, they be lincoln will work with the owners to install additional coming soon banners on their storefronts. This table youve seen before, however its been modified or updated to show the signed leases to date as compared to what is projected for the fiscal year 1920. So the column on the left shows that the prior Fiscal Year Ended with 13 spaces leased. Then, the next column over notes that the fiscal year starts with seven leases or seven spaces, i should say, in their First Quarter thus far, for a total of 20 spaces. So the seventh spaces, then, is for kaiser, approved by the board in june. One for foundation cafe. This was approved by the board earlier, but they waited, and theyre signing it this First Quarter. And then, plus the five spaces on the consent calendar today, which is three leases, and the column on the right shows whats projected for the year. This, youve seen before. This is a ground floor. Its information to you to demonstrate that interest remains high. There is some discussion on every space in various stages. The second floor, interest continues to be serviceoriented types of businesses. And then, finally, on the rooftop, theres discussion continuing on both spaces. So in general, the execution of the merchandising plan that colliers first presents has borne out with its diversity and local flavor, including some firsttime operators mixed in with seasoned operators. This is the last slide. Im going to just give you an overview. The landlords work on the first round of leases is nearly complete by the end of september. Also done by the end of september is pouring the slab and building the demising walls for the unleased spaces. Recall this is done for two reasons. One, to squeeze out the schedule. In looking at spaces for a prospective tenant, its easier when walls are in and floors are laid. Even though landlords work will be completed, a couple of tenants in the first round are taking longer to move forward with their work because of the tight Construction Market and high bids, so final construction methods have not been made. For the second round of services, with the exception of pouring the slab and putting up the walls and procuring the canopy units, that landlords work has not commenced. This is primary the result of needing to rethink the kitchen concept as to capacity and configuration. Capacity because as planned, it needs a rich more robust than originally planned. And configuration, becaused on the market how based on the market how leasing has unfolded, it needs a new plan in general. It needs to be rethought for the Current Space as well as future spaces, whats called a type i system. Type i means it produces cooking grease and smoke. So analyzing and assessing is underway. This exercise is multilayered in that its the exhaust system, the landlord schedule, the tenant schedule, and original tenants on occupancy. This will be presented in fewer detail at upcoming meetings. So that concludes my presentation. Are there any questions at this point . Chair nuru yes. To the chair, can you give us a sense of the need. Is it just the static way finding, is it the dynamic or what is this customer or the peak feedback . The original feedback was the static wayfinding because the digital wayfinding wasnt fully up and running when the Transit Center first opened. Im going to say it was just a basic. So one of the things that we built into the proposal was that the original look at how the static way finding interacts with the digital way finding, how the customer is reacting on that because we just we dont know. Right. Right. Okay. Well, it would be interesting i think to keep updated on all those analyses. Chair nuru yes. Yes. Whats your best guess in terms of the next round of tenants . In terms of when they open. Oh, we exchanged emails with onsite dental. They are talking about moving in middle of november or earlier. Phils is looking at january. And that second wave is roughly how many months behind that . So i dont know. Thats part of the analysis that we need to work. Chair nuru yes. Just want to say on the one the leases that they bring forward, its nice to see that theyre consistently the other two, but one, theyre selling chocolates, but thats okay. Its good to see that the performance is picking up, and im sure as the center opens, and people see, that will help you in closing out the spaces. Im sure from here on out, theyll be going like hot cakes, so well done. Chair nuru thank you. Clerk go ahead and call your next item. Item eight, the citizens advisory committee. Hello, everyone. Thank you for having me today. Usually, you have the much mora more eloquent derek. Im sorry you got stuck with me. A lot of the folks on the c. A. C. For a while really excited to see all the activity and all the feedback that theyre seeing so far. Muni is coming back, and were excited to see that m. T. A. Is coming back this weekend. You know, shovel ready in two weeks or two to three years cant come soon enough, were very focused on seeing that through. I think getting the environmental consultation together will be a great help,
