And ive had the opportunity to review Development Plan most recent the candlestick point. I can tell you, im getting really nervous. A lot of creativity right here in San Francisco. So Treasure Island is a point of destination. That point of destination. At some point, within the next few weeks, i would like the retail or whatever. I think it is time for us to revisit, look at the plan now, because if you look at the ambition of the chase stadium and all of them, listen, we could be at Treasure Island as a Bedroom Community and all the actions are here on the mainland and if you see what the five point is doing for candlestick point, the questio question is,t us to come back here and have it fullblown to show us here what are we when we went to new york, again, we have programs and given the fact we have 300 plus acres and the maintenance of the parks and all this stuff are inkum berdych oencumbered so wet that on the agenda right now. What kind of activities and how this will mean the primary objective of also being at the point of destination. This is really great. I think your plans are great and theyre going to be subsidize the Affordable Housing. We grief and were getting the retail plan. Its on the agenda coming up soon. Thank you. Thank you for the presentation. I will follow along as best i can. We didnt get this ahead of time. Its a lot of information to bring forward. It would be helpful if we can get it a little bit in advance so we can maybe be more prepared for the conversation. So, i just want to make sure i understand the shared public way extension that you are requesting through planning. Is that the avenue of the palms that you are proposing to extend all the way back . Yes, its the building to the west which would be lets see if i can can we put that back up on the screen . Thank you. Its this street just to the west of c2. 3. Right now our approvals have it ending right here. Theres a little bulb out. We need to process it but we think its possible and everyone is in favor of extending to brewton here at the corner. Do we have jurisdiction over that shared way extension or because its part of the Developers Land that falls within planning jurisdiction . It will be a multiagency discussion. This is also part of the conversation of removing the vehicle traffic off of the shared public way. There would be there wouldnt be a way for the traffic to circulate and we need to maintain and with this extension we can fully remove the vehicle traffic and its a good kevin and with public works and public utilities. One of the decisions that made this an opportunity was the decision not to co develop the hotel site with parcel 2. 4 and that was one of the reasons that happened with the palms ended at that site. Developers made the decision to move forward with 2. 4 as a Residential Development and hotel site which lies to the west of that forward at a later date and there doesnt need to be a physical decision and anymore. I understood that. Just to be completely clear, i think im hearing you say the decision around taking vehicles away from the shared public way, are you talking about the mid block public away in between 7cs and avenue of the palms . Originally that was going to be one of the back of house streets . They were a pedestrian and bike prioritized space and vehicle traffic was allowed. I believe it was around may we came to the board or the i. T. C. And forecast that we are evaluating removing all vehicle access from the shared public except for Emergency Vehicle access and as a means of enhancing competitive environment and this connection here was part of improving we wanted to take and traffic off of this block of the shared public. It sounds like this particular will come back to the i. T. C. Well have further updates. I think in the future when it comes back to the i. T. C. , i would be curious whether or not there are impacts to the end of the street and the cultural park being a pedestrianoriented experience. Its fine and i dont have initial objects just looking to better understand the trade off. A question about the livework unit, was that a requirement of the Development Agreement or that particular parcel. Is that something the developer decide today do . It was something we decided to do. We thought it was a good location for it and we have a different type of unit and feel. How can that function well and persist to function genuinely as livework units. As you know in San Franciscos mainland, and i think we have mixed results and its great you are trying to different Product Types to fit different demographic needs. Obviously, because of live work units you are getting certain flexibilities just hoping it will truly be realized and hoping well hear a little bit more how you can ensure it will continue to exist. We agree. We hope it works. David baker has done these successfully and he is the architect of this building. We started batting it around and he brought successful projects to us and we think at Treasure Island, the retail plan, having phase 0, who will be there right when those residents are in, having an option for some retail there at the street front age could really help in that initial phase. Were thinking in the early stages of this entire development, having those live work spaces could be beneficial to the over all development. Ms. Shiffrin. What stage of development are these in . Are you in dds or cds . Were actually just through sds, were working with the Planning Department to refine our designs so we thought it was a good point to bring it to the board now that weve gotten initial buy in from the Planning Department. Were at 100 sds. Great. Do you know roughly how many square feet of retail is in this space. Were going to do an entire retail plan. There was about 1500 in each building. And then, there will be other com poem antcomponents. We will do it next week at i. T. C. How much parking . They range from. 4 to. 7. Whats the lowest . We dont have a requirement on parking on the island. If i may i have some questions and i have more details if you would like to hear about as it goes along. Maybe not in todays session. First of all, ive got to credit you and your team for putting together a great roster of architects. These are some of the best architects that we have in the city and im glad that you are using them at Treasure Island. I think one of the challenges with having different architect actual designs, first of all its a good thing to get a variety within a box or the scale that were at but the question that i would have is how are you going to integrate the designs so that if there is the sense of neighborhood and a comprehensive whole. The neighborhoods in the city that have been successful are ones that absolved overtime and have an identity. Whether its the northbeat nor marino or miss, theres sort of an era that it was built at. So theres somewhat of a neighborhood fabric that was built. So here youve got four different buildings being built at the same time and i dont know how big these are. Can you remind me . Yes. They will around 600 feet along. So quite a distance. The more you do as you go forward in design to give some articulation so that it doesnt seem like one big development, one blank development and give that variety and i think it will help the design. Were mostly interested in the public realm. I should say that i am and certainly the committee. You are going to do the absolute best that you can for your buildings because you want them to sell or theyre rental. Im sure you are going to pursue the best that you can. For us whats is so important is the public realm. What happens on the streets. I would ask you to look more carefully at how these buildings interact with the street. I understand that these are schematics now but what happens at the street level is probably the most important thing. How the entries on the shared public way but are they uses along the street that is going to activate it and i think that you know, were coming now in the way that cities are being built and used that theres more than mix of uses. The most successful neighborhoods are those that mix the retail with the work and the housing. Here i see in your development, you know, this is a residential block and these are residential uses but what are we going to have along that shared public way. How is the building going to interact with the street . And also, you know, you have the building in the cultural part as well. How are these buildings going to be used by visitors that come to the cultural park and i would say that theres probably an opportunity to make those ground floor uses active and make sure the opportunities for future on enteentrepreneurs and creating spaces not just used bring the residents but visitors. Were going to have visitors. Were going to have thousands of visitors that come and if theres not space built in for those visitors to. I hope were going to get that presentation soon. I suggest that, look at the neighborhood and the street. Not just that its a residential use and this is the retail use separate and apart but how can we mix those uses to get a much more vibrant fabric. Thats something i would like to hear about more as well. I wonder whether you would go back to the flick realm to, in this first phase, what will be built which public spaces will be built with this first phase of residential building. Would you like to see that . Yeah. Were calling this first residents and one more afford able project as well on the left of the screen. The ferry will be complete. The area when people get off the ferry will be complete. In front of the admin building. The cultural park. That all leads to these first two blocks. Are you able to point . You can use the mouse. Just for the public and the commissioners as well. Theyre able to come here and it will be complete with the waterfront plaza. If its not in its final condition well feel complete. The cultural park that leads to these two blocks and the city side park in front of the building will be complete. Will you show me the end of the first phase where it comes along the waterfront . City side park will be complete. It will be complete. Yes. Everything along the western front to make it feel as complete as possible because these residents will be living through construction for years to come. We wanted it to feel finished and in an area where it wasnt under construction. Would you mind just going to slide 14 and showing the same thing . It might bes year fo easiers at home to follow you. Thats better. So, again, everything along the waterfront here. Cultural park. The hotel will not be there. This will just be a park at that point. It will be like an extension of city side park and city side park will be complete to here. What about along clipper cove . So i am pretty focused on stage 1 personally. I think along clipper code there will be construction going on. The first block from the ferry plaza area going to the east will be complete at the end of the development. Im sorry, where would that be on the map . On this diagram its off the edge. We the end of the development of this block the segment here will be complete. It will be be complete at the time these very first residents move into the c2 block that danielle was discussing now so that will be another year or two out. Thank you. I would like to perhaps for another presentation for you to come back and give us more images and thinking on that shared public street and also the street between the cultural park and your development to we can understand at the street level what is happening. Your fly through was great and fast. It was like a roller coaster. We wanted to see that stepbystep with a little bit more details. In all, i think that you have such a great opportunity here both as developers and designers to do something very, very special. I think that the over all theme that should be running through your thinking as you design this up in neighborhood, is what makes Treasure Island special . What makes it different. And i think what were seeing is so much mission bay is a product of its master planning which was in the 199 50s and early 2000s. And its a neighborhood of that part of the time. You have the chance to do something very different here. The design for development is a good guys line but it was done almost a decade ago. So, i think what we would like to see is that spark of well, what it is that we have to do here at Treasure Island to make it absolutely special because really the opportunity to create a new neighborhood in San Francisco that comes only once in a lifetime. Thank you. Thank you. We definitely appreciate your comments. One other thing, i understand that there were some transformers that were being suggested by the puc which is along the waterfront. Is that correct . Sir won theyre is happening with that. Not transformers. We have a number of pump stations and stormwater and sewage pump stations that are located in parts and open spaces around the island and there was a discussion at the arts mission and the team is received a feedback from the Arts Commission and theyre reviewing alternate fencing design and well bring that after we have a conversation with. Before he even heard anything about and it you have awe presentation before this committee and this commission and he can go back and they would like to know. Just to piggyback so we follow the particle in the development and we entertain and we have from the agencies that the approval and authority here so in the public that it would have to even before it gets on the drawing board, as an idea, so that we can look at that and compare that with the over all plan that we have and so that is extremely important issue not even going back to the Arts Commission before we get a chance to see that. Then, the protocol we have the bigger picture. It brings me to another point here and this is a Publicprivate Partnership and i think that this commission has done it great well. The management of this project, again, to really showcase a fine Publicprivate Partnership not only in San Francisco but in the country, every decision they made has to be brought here. Whether you are doing your ferry building, landing and we went to a meeting and people are telling us about reading in the paper for developers and for partners. Every single of the decisions all of us here are very active and we get asked a lot of questions about what are you talking about and right now, to manage the information, its going out in the public everybody here in this Commission Also has to be very well prepared to note that so on your end, do not, anything you embark on to that and the Public Private partnership. I dont want to read something in the paper that i dont know about that the citd is doing and that then will be at least not following the protocol so please, lets straighten that up right here. Thank you. Absolutely. Hearing no other questions from the board are there comments from the public . Sherry williams from one Treasure Island and that was a great presentation, danielle. Very inspiring. There is another plan thats part of the dda that is called the community facilitys plan. Its gotten the least amount of attention but i think at this time, its time to dust it off and have a look at it. I think that a lot of the questions about Public Open Space with the Community Looks like and so fourth, theres starting places in the community facilitys plan. We have started talking with staff about it in particular looking at potentially programming childcare. You would actually have to design in the building from the start as opposed to waiting until after. And i think that maybe at the next not the next but at a future i. T. C. Meeting, having a presentation of what the existing plan actually looks like would make a lot of sense because there are already certain requirements and certain anticipation of certain uses such as like i said, childcare, youth, Library Reading rooms, cultural spaces too that might inform some of that more Public Open Spaces and ways the Community Comes together. So i just wanted to note that because its really important and i think were at the time now where development where we have to look at Community Facilities and how we all come together. And then i just had one completely random thing to say and that is that, one of the things when we did our Youth Services plan a few years ago that the residents really wanted on the island was a public pool. There are 300 acres of open space and to the extent, because theres going to be a lot of amenities in the market rate developments, and to the extent that we can build a public pool that would appeal to a Cross Section of people i think is a Great Community builder and filet great need and i would love us to really look at that because im sure it will take quite a while to develop and get funds for but id like us to look at having that to be an option. Thank you. Thank you. So, bob, if we could have schedule a look at the facilities plan and also another session to focus on the street level activities and design along the shared public way and along the street fronting the culturacultural park, that woule really helpful. Next item, please. Thank you, very much for your presentation. Item number 8, transition housing update. So, thank you board members. I wanted to provide, this will cover a few topics here with this presentation. Both an update on the work thats being done with one Treasure Island on outreach. As well as a report on the upcoming workshop that we have for residents and finally also, discussion of the resolutions introduced by supervisor mainly last month. So, i apologize. The handouts are missing every other page. I need to follow along with the presentation on the screen. To start with, i just wanted to give an update on the outreach and the pre dda and mixed households. Weve had three move outs through then lieu process since our meeting last month so we have 191 mixed households. We continue our efforts to reach the last three of those households for communication. In terms of implementing the transitional housing rules and regulations, as weve discussed at past meetings, weve been adopting interpretation and implementation procedures. These are really intended to document sessions that were making through the process so that we go through the process over the next 10 to 15 years, we have a record of where weve made decisions and the decisions that were made in interpreting the thr and rs and implementing them. These are not decisions that materially change the citys obligation under the thr and r and dont rise to the level of actually requiring the thr and rs to be amended but really, just providing clarity and definition. Weve adopted three of these so far. One was defining benefit eligible residents. We have generally speaking the benefits under the transitional housing rules and regulations extend to people that were here in 2011, however, spouses and children and caregivers are all also eligible for the transition benefits when they become available. So we wanted to have a definition ofe of encapsulated o they didnt apply to these additional classes of people. The second was procedure that would allow if we had a larger household generally speaking residents are eligible to a single transition benefit and in lieu payment or a replacement unit. If a household could split into more than one unit and each of those resulting households would qualify for below market rate transition units, we adopted a provision that would allow for that. Its in recognition we have multifamily or non familial households that may not want to be together forever, although theyve been together for years renting on the island. The third was clarifying the provisions under which the early inlieu payment was offered. Were preparing an implementation procedure number 4 which similar to the number two, addresses an issue with multi family or non familiar households where one or more household members wants to remain for the replacement unit. And, while the thr and r provide each household with a single benefit option when issued a notice to move, the early inlieu provision was included in thr and rs to provide an opportunity for people to take an inlieu benefit without waiting for replacement units are offered to them. In recognition of that, were drafting a procedure that will allow a portion of a household or some household members and others will retain their transition housing rules and regulations eligible for a future replacement unit. We doing peck this is goin done the people who have expressed an early in the early inlieu payment but for some households it will relief some strain within the household. On the workshop were going to be doing, this is coming up at the end of the month. This is really to inform people of the pre marketing opportunities that will be coming in the early next year. And also, to continue to work to encourage and inform people to participate in the below market rate Home Buyer Program so that when the below market rate units are available for sale in the latter part of 2020, that theyve completed the necessary classes and obtained the appropriate certification to be able to make an offer on a below market rate for sale unit. So were scheduled for tuesday the 29th agen at the ship shape. There are tables set up on individual topics. It wont be a lengthy Powerpoint Presentation but people can come and go as they please. And circulate through and gather the information relevant to them. We started our outreach yesterday with an email to all of the pre dda and mixed households. Well be following up with a post card mailing next month week. Door hang and he is a second han email reminder of the day before the event. The information that were hoping to convey to people, again, always having the opportunity for General Information update on their housing benefits under the transitional housing rules and regulations. Additional information, as i said, on the market rate and below market rate Home Ownership opportunities with representatives to answer questions and information on first time home buyers class and having computers so if people need assistance with the class we can actually do that and during the course of the event, as well as registering people for the pre marketing noticing list, answering questions about down payment benefits and in early in lieu benefit opportunities. So ill shift now before talking about the resolution that supervisor haney introduced. I thought it would be good to for residents and members of the audience and all of us to go through a review of the transition housing plans that are included in the development documents. The housing plan is the over all guiding document and agreement between the developer and the city. For the development of market rate and Affordable Housing. The Affordable Housing developed and range up to 120 of ami and an average affordable 50 below of ami. The company and the housing plan there were two transition housing plans and the first is the one Treasure Island and the tie die transition housing plan that provides for the future transition of current Affordable Housing residents and the transitional housing rules and regulations for the villages at Treasure Island and the thr and r which covers the market rate residents and the benefits established under the thr and r weve discussed several times and were reflected in supervisor haneys proposed resolution is the thr and r is only he can intended benefits to residents who lived on the island at the time that the thr and r was adopted in 2011. Provided residents who arrived to the island after that date, or post dda households would be provided with Advisory Service whats it came down to move. Today, i just illustrate graphic to help people think about our residents on the island and we have in the yellow our one Treasure Island households that are under the one Treasure Island transition plan and it includes the cath rick charity residents, community housing, source to plow shares and health right 360 and under the victim ages, we have the pre dda households and those lease holders that were here and in 2011 when the dda was adopted and post dda households, which are households established after that date and in between that, we have what we referred to as mixed households where some people on the lease were here in 2011 but roommates have moved out and new roommates have moved in and so going back to one Treasure Island transition plan. We have 435 new units and partnership with one Treasure Island member agencies. They currently lease and manage 250 units on the island so under the transition plan, anyone residing in the units under management of those providers will be transferred to replacement units in the New Buildings as they are developed, just a reminder for everyone, our first building is in partnership with source to plow shares and China Town Community development and so those 36 source of plow shares units residents will move into that first building and our second building is in partnership with Catholic Charities and thats 135 unit buildings so 66 units will be occupied by Catholic Charities residents and then the remaining units well be trying to transition as many pre dda building as we planned including 23 units that we will be constructing without the benefit of Affordable Housing tax credits and other funding and where we transition households that dont meet income eligible requirements for formal housing. And so, its simple in that whoever is residing in those units will have an opportunity to move into future housing as long as they are and respective of when they arrived on the island and that promise of replacement housing is the only theres no other options that are offered to one Treasure Island resident. Its just you are promised the opportunity to relocate. Is the Catholic Charities project, is that the one that. Its in partnership with mercy, yes. Thank you. So for the village at Treasure Island residents the thr and rs, as i mentioned, extend transition benefits to those households that were here at the end of june 2011 when the dda was executed and those options that are available to the residents of villages include a new rental unit that could be an affordable unit or if they dont meet income eligibilities theyre promised the opportunity to move to a new rental unit if they so chose. If they elect to leave and also a pre marketing window and units from Treasure Islands and. And, ace mentioned, because if continue existing household does not meet the income requiremen requirements, we cannot use Affordable Housing tax credits and some other sources of funding specifically for Affordable Housing to construct those individual units. Those units remain restricted and become affordable units after the household moves out. And i really bring that up because, with the current cost of construction, the inability to use those tax credit financing and some of these underfunding sources, means than we need to make up as much as 300,000 of the cost of constructing each unit out of other local sources. So that is a tremendous cost associated with the replacement unit benefit. So, with that recap of what the transitional housing rules and regulations promise and how theyre structured, i wanted to talk a little bit about supervisor haneys resolution urging the Treasure Island Development Authority to expand relocation and transition benefits for post dda households. This was introduced september 10th of the board of supervisors and we expect to be calender probably prior to our next meeting for discussion at land use. And so, we wanted to have a conversation with bore board mes about the provisions there. Just a reminder, as i ive discussed previously we currently have just under 400 total households and some of those households are commercial leases. Leases with special entities. That are excluded from benefits under the thr and rs. In terms of fully post dda households we have 151 and of the 191 households we refer to as pre dda but include mixed households, 91 include mixed households. Between the 100 post dda households and the mixed households, we have just about 240 total households. In consistent with the adoption of the thr and rs all leases with household members disclose that the availability on housing, on Treasure Island is interim and without relocation benefits. Being responsive to the concerns that have been raised and the amount of time thats passed since the thr and rs were adopted, i wanted to talk a little bit about how we would move forward with some benefits. One thing thats important to start with is that we dont anticipate requiring any of the existing housing to be vacated for the purchasing of development within the next five years. 2024 is when we expect to start demolishing some of the earliest we would expect start demolishing some of the existing housing to make way for development. In that timeframe, well be completing the source to plow shares and mercy buildings and begin the process of relocating residents. For any buildings vacated within the next 10 or more years, we anticipate we should be in a position to offer replacement units within the to people that have not been relocated to permanent housing but are required to vacate their current building. I have an image here you can see on the western side of the existing neighborhood about last of the residential neighborhood underlies the future Development Footprint for future housing but a significant portion of the existing neighborhood is slated to be parks and open space. And so we have some flexibility and the timing of the development of that parks and open space thats where i say, within the next 10 years, we should have opportunities within the remaining housing area to continue to provide housing for people whether they have relocation benefits or not. So, in terms of the formulating potential post dda benefits. One of the issues thats come forward is important is consultation with the City Attorney and the mayors of housing. Subsequent to the adoption of the d. D. A. But prior to the adoption of our new rules. It wouldnt be something that we would a couldnt rules and you can move in six months from now and take advantage of those rules. There will be future population and we conclude and we should do at this time. Even if we direct the village to offer new leases our lease building and units as they are vacant, theyre still the opportunity for roommates to move out and roommates to move in and those roommates moving in, to not be covered by what we do today. So, i think that is good in a couple ways. One is we dont have to solve all problems today. There will be a set of problems for someone in the future to solve as well. So, what im proposing at this time is including post dda residents in the pre market opportunities. From market rate housing so that as the first buildings on ybi become available and if people are interested in purchasing new units that post dda residents could also participate in that process during the pre marketing window. And its important to highlight as danielle included in her presentation, two of the first market rate buildings on Treasure Island will be rental union sits theres both pre marketing rental and purchase opportunities that households could take advantage of. The other thing and most important thing i propose we do is modify the housing plan to prioritize. The way the implementation of the thr and rs would be carried out to today is because we have an obligation to pre dda households, to provide replacement housing to them, when mohcd conducts their lottery process for placement in new Affordable Housing units as they become available, any new units on Treasure Island are pre dda would automatically rise to the top of that lottery process. And would have units be made available to them. And so, if we modify our housing plan to take on the obligation to provide a similar opportunity to income qualifying post dda residents they would also rise above the other categories of preference holders within the conventional Affordable Housing lottery. It would be subordinate to and just to describe what that means it would be first come first serve. If a post dda resident came in during the pre market wooing and said i want to rent unit 26, that require from post dd resident would be held until the end of the remark et wooing and a. They would still have that and it would be second to the first apartment of a pre dda household and all of the existing pre dda residents who entered into the lottery would rise to the very top of the list and the post would the list below them. Because it would not increase our financial obligations, and we wanted to bring these ideas to you for discuss and for we formally draft something and bring it forward. And i just wanted to highlight in contrast with the benefits that are available to pre dd residents were not recommending extending the inlieu payments and nor are we proposing to offer transition to post residents that dont qualify foray and to continue the existing provisions of the thr and rs and they dont apply to commercial resolvers. Going forward, we have the workshop on the 29th. We have an outreach and coordinating and well be taking what weve discussed here today and to the housing plan and another thing that the resolution request is that we develop an outreach plan to well plan for the pre marketing update. This is information only. Theres no action that is calender for today its just to bring the board uptodate so i open it up to questions. Thank you, again. At least we can say that the way that we are implementing the thr and rs we are following pro tolls and good intentions are great and the problem sometimes are the implementations and thats incumbent on what im going to discussion what we do in addition to the fine documents we serve a supporting document. I think that even all the position out there, if you have been raiding the president and the media, not everyone can tune into our deliberations to see the quality and the extent to which were doing this, when they grandfathered them to the document that is why we committed all these resources and were doing what were doing. Matt haney says we need to do the post dda. Years back when i was part of this process too, london breed came out with housing and if you live in the western edition, anything billion dollar there
