Thank you. This item before you is a request for disbursement, since the approval of the Grant Agreement, we have had three disbursements, and this will be the fourth. The crest the request before you for a Million Dollars to assist with the partial funding for the museum. With that, we have representatives here. Thank you. Good afternoon. I am develop services manager, i am here before you today to present a Grant Funding request. With me, are representatives from both the Mexican Museum and 706 Mission Street company. The developer for the 706 mission project. Andrew kluger who is the chair of the board of directors of the Mexican Museum and market for our from 706 Mission Street, he is a project manager. I will provide a brief overview of the project, and the current grant disbursement request and then turn it over for discussion. As you know there we go, the project is located in in Yerba Buena Center. Which the agency helped assemble and develop over the years into a the cultural district that you know today. The last remaining undeveloped parcel is the Mexican Museum site. That is shown here on Central Block one. Here is an an aerial view. And reggie 706 Mission Street site, which combines it with a building that was purchased by millennium partners. There is a long trajectory to the history of this project. In 2013, ocii entered into a purchase and Sale Agreement with millennium for a mixed use project on that combined site. The project started construction in 2016. In overview, the develop a program for this project includes 190 units of condominiums, and a 480foot tower. The build out of the korn shell of about a 48,000 squarefoot museum space and the four floors. The developer is responsible for building that shell and transferring it to the city. Also, part of the project is Historical Preservation of the aaronson building on the ownership and operation of the garage. You see renderings of the project. As i mentioned, this is the last project and fulfillment of the yerba buena cultural district. We contributed the land and the garage. The developer provide Significant Community benefits, including the construction of the shell of this museum space. When it is completed, it will be deeded over to the city and the city will lease it to the museum. The Mexican Museum will be responsible for the design, and construction of tenant improvements. Ocii has approximately 7. 1 million available to fund those. The balance will be the responsibility of the museum there is a recent photo showing construction of the tower. In terms of status today. The construction completion is anticipated in 2020 with initial delivery of the residential condominium units in approximately april or may of this year, and delivery of the museum space to the city, in the summer of 2020. In terms of the public art. When the project was approved it was approved by the citys Planning Department and it had to meet the requirements under the planning code including article four which was the provision of either onsite public art, or a contribution. The developer and the museum jointly proposed that the public art fee be applied to a facade screen. Which was a unique public artwork worth roughly 3 million. Heres a rendering of the facade screen. It basically wraps the fourstory condominium. That brings us to the grant request today. The former agency of the museum entered into a Grant Agreement, in 2,010 to help fund museums portions of its cost for tenants portions of this mixed use project within the 706 Mission Street project. The total Grant Agreement arouns 10. 5 million, 2. 78 has been disbursed for predevelopment costs to date, approximately 7. 8 [of that the current request would utilize at 1 million to fund the museums portion of the facade screen. The Grant Agreement itself has a ten year term and expires in december of 2020. The joint request that is before you today would be to access funds for the museums portion of the facade screen. In light of the fact that the developer has taken on the obligation for the design fabrication and construction of the facade screen, the proposed grant disbursement agreement would disperse 1 million grant funds directly to the developer, on behalf of the museum pursuant to the budget contained in the disbursement agreement. The final budget for the total cost of the facade screen approximately 3. 6 million. The developer would be contributing their public art fee, plus some cost allowance savings for approximately 2. 6 million and the museum would contribute the remaining amount of 1 million due to the grant disbursement agreement. The Grant Agreement itself includes provisions related to compliance with the policies and programs, including the Small Business enterprise program. Which both the museum and the developer are complying with. They have been working closely with our contact Compliance Team to date. The approval of the fourth grant disbursement agreement would be in compliance of the 2,010 Grant Agreement. The proposed use of funds is consistent with the grant, and the fourth disbursement agreement would include or does include a budget and the roles and responsibilities of each party and the mechanisms for disbursement and compliance. If the Commission Approves this request the parties will move forward to complete the facade screen and disburse the Million Dollars in funds by the summer, june 2020. This concludes the presentation. Thanks for your time and we are available to answer any questions. Thank you. Thank you. Madam secretary do we have any cards . Yes, we have oscar james. Good afternoon commissioners, director. My name is oscar james, im a native resident of Hunters Point, San Francisco california. When this proposal was first brought to the redeveloping agency, in 2010, it seems like it was longer than that. Ramon was one of the commissioners that was sitting up there at that particular time. We had other commissioners sitting up there, at the same time. There was a lot of people that did not want this to come to fruition. I stated then, and i state it now this city should allow any any race, religion, Arts Commission if they desire to have Arts Commission and the city and county of San Francisco. It was a big fight about some of the commissioners did not want it. It did pass. This city, San Francisco is built on the mexicanamericans, in the city and county of San Francisco. This country as a whole, before the mexican war, before the alamo, all of this was mexican territory. They have a right to have a museum here, in San Francisco. The only thing i ask for them to do is give some of the history of San Francisco what it means to the whole united states. What they have done here in San Francisco. All of those people trying to come back to california, the mexicanamericans, they deserve to have the right to be here this is their country first. I dont care what kind of war takes place, where you move people out, what have you. This is their land. You have a lot of mexicanamericans who built mission dolores. The country did not start in 1776, it was way before 1776, and they were here. I would like for them to give the history of the bay area, the fights that they have done in San Francisco, how they made San Francisco, San Francisco. I am just glad that this is happening. To me it is taking too long. I give credit to the mexicanamerican people. God bless you all. Thank you. No more speaker cards. Thank you. Public comment is closed. I turned to my we have any questions for staff . Have no questions, just the comments that i am thankful for the work that you have done, and the plans that you have going forward. I totally agree with mr. Oscar james, and i am thankful for hilda scott. Thank you for your report. I approve. This is a motion . Yes, i would like to move that we authorize a fourth grant disbursement agreement with the Mexican Museum. Have a question, is there a second . The chair booster is a second. I have a question, i didnt see in the packet about the Small Business participation. I think the numbers are impressive. I would like to know who the professional Services Providers are . I am the contract contract supervisor with ocii. The project started off with a Consultant Team of about 12 consulting firms with a participation of 66. 8 . There was a joint venture with a d architecture. I do want to note, however, because of the duration of time, and changes in some of the firms has now been merged with harkins and wales. The joint venture is no longer in effect. We have been, in recent conversations with the Mexican Museum their attorney, in terms of looking at the replacement. What has been brought forth to us as a hispanic firm, as a replacement for the architect. We expect that the participation will remain above 50 . Thank you. On construction i guess i am reading 22. 9, is that accurate . That is correct. This is the construction of the tower itself, not the Mexican Museum. The museum itself will be putting forth bids when the leaseholds arent contemplated. Okay. You have a comment as to why it is 22. 9 . It seems kind of low is it just because of the nature of the work . Unfortunately it has to do a lot with the tower constructions that we have talked about in recent times. Just the magnitude of work, and the different type of work with respect to type one constructi construction. The participation of Small Businesses, while there are quite a number of Small Businesses, their level of participation is not a 50 . Approximately 30 Small Businesses that are participating. The largest package that i see, in terms of dollar amounts is about 7. 5 million. I would like to have a report, not at this time, typically the kind we receive f with our packages, and the details. Thank you. The item has been moved by commissioner scott and seconded by chair bustos. [role call] the item has been approved. Thank you. Please call the next item. The next order of business is agenda item five c. Workshop on the amendment to the recognized obligation payment schedule for january 1, 2020 to june 30, 2020 including the administrative budget for the Successor Agency and supporting documentation. Madam director . Thank you. The item before you is an amendment to the 1920. Back in january we had held a workshop, for the commission, as well as a workshop on approval for submittal to the department of finance, by february 1. We did submit, but we got pushed back in terms of specific requests related to our pledge agreements. When we do estimates, we had allowed through the recognition of the payment schedule for the controller to transfer actual receipts. The response back to us in approving, they gave us feedback that that is not allowed if we had to approve drop it does not allow us to construct the controller to disburse to the agency over what was approved. What we are proposing to do today, is have the commission hear the item, which is subject to oversight approval and ask that we make to Public Finance based on information, from the controller, under the certificate of assessed valuation that shows an increase in property tax revenues generated in the three project areas beyond what was in the original approved draft. Today we will be working through the specific line items and changes we are proposing with regards to the amendment. We are typically allowed to do this in september for submittal in october. Good afternoon. I am the Financial Reporting management analysis analysi analysis analyst for ocii. Ab 26 requires the agency to create the roth, sb107 requires a time period to amend for the 12 month period. No later than october 1. Resubmitted to the department of finance on february 1. We received approval on may 17. On the ninth we presented the workshop to the Oversight Board. We are here before you present in the workshop on the amendments for the Oversight Board will be taking action on the 23rd and submitting the amendment to the department of finance by the end of the month. This is just a reminder of the funding. We have the proceeds, reserve balances, other Development Payments on grants and we have the redevelopment property tax trust fund, add and non admin. You can see the total requested increase is 53. 24 million this is non admin. Again, when we submitted this earlier this year, we had used estimates. Then we receive the finalize property tax role from the assessors in august of 2019. We are amending to updated figures. We receive had just used straightline projections for our estimates. We had a number of projects come online. Weve also built a model for more robust property tax increment calculations and projections moving forward. Again, the total increase is 53. 24 million which brings the total to 461. 45 million and this will be used for the construction of infrastructure and approved housing areas. This table shows the requested increase by our uses. We have 16. 33 in our affordable housing, plus this will be used to Fund Projects and our pipeline for future years. We also have the remainder of the increase that will be used to reimburse developers for infrastructure already constructed in the art project areas. Again, this is used to pay for ocii funded affordable housing. Here we are just showing this will be used to read [inaudible] we wanted to show the net impact to our different project areas. Here we have a table showing the impact in mission bay. You can see the 34. 38 is driving the requested increase, because of some Major Projects like the chase center and the uber Office Building that will be coming online. Here we are showing the net impact, this is reflecting where we sent project completions and the infrastructure pledge line 102 will be transferred to support the terminal. Here we have the increase to the shipyard, Hunters Point shipya shipyard, it is a . 9 million increase, primarily for flex and adjustment for inflations. Off of the gross tax incremental amount, 20 of the top goes for taxing entities, 20 goes to ocii housing, and the remainder this group we are requesting in our amendment will not adversely impact the tax amenities because the shares are being constant. There is no Budget Amendment required because it is only an increase in the revenues, and not the expenditures. Budget amendments are only required for changes and expenditures. These funds will fall to fund balance and be programmed for our out years. This is just the next steps. The Oversight Board will take action on the item, we will submit our amendment on september 30, that concludes the presentation. Thank you. Any speaker cards . We have one speaker card, oscar james. Mr. James. He is waving hello, and goodbye, and waving his right so no more speaker cards. This is a workshop . There is no action. This is an opportunity for questions, or comments, reflections. [laughter] commissioners . Any questions . Thank you for your report. The only question i have, just because it is a nagging question. This is essentially money in . Yes. An increase in our revenues. Not estimated to come in actual money that has been scheduled or has been collected . Yes. We have collections from august, and it is an estimate for january. It is a more robust as that we had initially submitted. I think you address this, its just a curiosity, our original projections were more on the conservative side, because, you know there is lot of things that can happen during the year. S, it was more on the preservative side conservative side. We did this in the fall of 2018. We would include, in our rough notes, these are estimates, but anything over would be distributed to us, but because of the decision to keep it to what is actually requested, we revisited our assumptions about our estimates. Okay. Yeah, because obviously if we can capture as much as possible, its better to have it on the front and. End. I think it is very impressive actually. When you look at this picture, every area has increased. I dont have any other questio questions. It is a no action item. Thank you. Please call the next item. The next order of business item no. 6, Public Comment on nonagenda items. Members of the public may address the commission on matters that are within the Commission Jurisdiction and not on todays calendar. Each speaker shall have up to three minutes to make pertinent Public Comments unless the Commission Adopts a shorter period. It is strongly recommended that members of the public who wish to address the commission fill out a speaker card and submit the completed card to the commission secretary. I have one speaker card. Oscar james. Oscar james again. I dont want to take up too much of your time. What i wanted to speak on. We are having a meeting, thursday night, pertaining to the seawall that is going around the city. The city is going to do their part, both the navy has not committed to putting a seawall up in the shipyard. I want to bring that to you guys attention, that we need a seawall in hunters. Shipyard. We would like for you guys to support it. The other thing i do, and i have done for years, things that really matter to me about Hunters Point, or any area, as far as that goes, i always get a package. Besides getting a package, i also go downstairs and i get a dvd. They stopped making dvds, and oscar james is not up to recording. I would like for you guys to have them downstairs, make dvds for the public, because i keep my record read when i come up here to speak, or someone comes up here to speak, i can go back to that dvd and see what was g gay, or what was nay. It is important to me to see what has been happening in these meetings but ive been coming to these meetings i came and there was no minorities in this commission. We flipped over desks, and everything else, to get you guys here in our communities. I am proud of what the outcome has came to be. I need to have a record, just like if someone would say today, what happened in the Hunters Point shipyard, when he first closed, i was on the task force on what we wanted the city to come in and do it, the city didnt want to do anything in the Hunters Point shipyard. Mr. Soul, the director at that particular time, the only thing he wanted to do was bring a coal train into Hunters Point shipyard. We told them in a kind Hunters Point way. Hunters point came up then with different programs, we wanted to go into Hunters Point shipyar shipyards. The city decided they would sell that, the Officers Club and the Hotel Restaurant for Young Community developers, fenced off out at partial e. I can go back to those tapes and say what was said back then. It is important to me to have a record of ocii, or the redeveloping agency and what you say, what you dont say. When i get out into the community, and the good lord give me another 70 years to be here, i can tell what happened here at this commission and hope some young people start coming to these meetings so they can take it further. What you are doing is important, and it is good. If we dont have a record of in communities of what is happeni happening, you know, no sense coming here. It is fruitless. I would ask, i would beg, even though they are doing a good job downstairs i would like to get a dvd from them. They told me how to go about on the thing, and tape it. Like i say come on out into. My grandkids is into that, so are my young kids, but i am not. Thank you very much. No more speaker cards madam vice chair. Thank you for the comment. Please call the next item. The next order of business is item seven, report of the chair. I dont think the chair has a report. The next order of business is item eight, report of the executive director madam director . None at this time. I do want to acknowledge, since our last meeting, the chase center open and it was a huge success. Theyve had a few concerts be mitigated. I want to thank everyone for their work on item nine, commissioner questions are there i have a followup question, im glad you brought up the there was two concerts saw that it was coming news reports only thing i noticed instead item ten, no closed session items. The i dont think i need a motion 5 00 p. M. And the meetins San Francisco and oakland are challenging each other in a battle for the bay. Two cities. One bay. San francisco versus oakland. Are you ready to get in on the action . Im london breed. And i am oakland mayor libby schaff. Who will have the cleanest city . We will protect our bay by making our neighborhoods shine. Join us on september 21st as a battle for the bay. Which city has more volunteer spirit . Which city can clean more neighborhoods . The city with the most volunteers wins. Signup to be a bay protector and a neighborhood cleaner. Go to battle fo shop and dine on the 49 promotes local businesses and challenges residents to do shopping and dining within the 49 square miles of San Francisco by supporting local Services Within neighborhood. We help San Francisco remain unique, successful and vibrant. Where will you shop and dine in the 49 . San francisco owes the charm to the unique character of the neighborhood comer hall district. Each corridor has its own personality. Our neighborhoods are the engine of the city. You are putting money and support back to the community you live in and you are helping Small Businesses grow. It is more environmentally friendly. Shopping local is very important. I have had relationships with my local growers for 30 years. By shopping here and supporting us locally, you are also supporting the growers of the flowers, they are fresh and they have a price point that is not imported. It is really good for everybody. Shopping locally is crucial. Without that support, Small Business cant survive, and if we lose Small Business, that diversity goes away, and, you know, it would be a shame to see that become a thing of the past. It is important to dine and shop locally. It allows us to maintain traditions. It makes the neighborhood. I think San Francisco should shop local as much as they can. The retail marketplace is changes. We are trying to have people on the floor who can talk to you and help you with products you are interested in buying, and help you with exploration to try things you have never had before. The fish business, you think it is a piece of fish and fisherman. There are a lot of people working in the fish business, between wholesalers and fishermen and bait and tackle. At the retail end, we about a lot of people and it is good for everybody. Shopping and dining locally is so important to the community because it brings a tighter fabric to the community and allows the Business Owners to thrive in the community. We see more Small Businesses going away. We need to shop locally to keep the Small Business alive in San Francisco. Shop and dine in the 49 is a cool initiative. You can see the banners in the streets around town. It is great. Anything that can showcase and legitimize Small Businesses is a wonderful thing
