Good afternoon supervisors. Tom, from liveable city. We support electricification of the Transportation System and thank you for bringing forward ideas will support this. The science is behind this that depentedance on electric vehicles have disvajs as automobiles. They are energy intensive. Takeum an amount of space. A danger to pedestrians in order to get to Sustainable Transportation in the future. We need to focus on electrifying the vehicle fleet and also on car free living. 3 years ago we worked with supervisor mandelman looking at the service station gas station question. We want ev charging but could we think of the gas stations as supporting car free living in and so in that legislation we said, all right. Now, under code, if you stop dispensing morvehicle fuels and service stipulation has to go. It is right to strike that out. But in the currently legislation you become ev charge or stay a service station. We took a more fleckable frooch. No longer dispense motor fuel vehicles but you can allow ev charging, allow bike and car share. They are sustainable hubs people go, pick up a vehicle. Still allow the repair and service of vehicles. You will have repair we dont believe the current ordinance allows that. We recommend you add back that flexible to section 187 use the parking legislation as a guide and add it to 102 definitions so they can become sustainable mobility hubs and support. Are there other members that would like to speak on item one in the chamber . Moving to the remote call in line. We have 8 listens with 3 in the queue. James, take the first caller, please. Good upon afternoon, supervisor mark here. On behalf of officers ever teamster 665. We are supportive of expansion of ev charging throughout our city. Expansion will benefit both workers and residents who are migrating to electric vehicles. We support the amendments most specific low one concerning fleet charging which we believe should be dealt with separately. Commercial, expansion of floats going forward. This fleet charging its separate from all the other merits of electric vehicle charge nothing san front we are supporting. Fleet charging will have a Significant Impact on both work and residents. And we want that were hoping that everyone can see to it that we can review that impact on our city and neighborhoods and workers. Under separate legislation. We support this. We work the amendments as they are presented and we thank you for your time. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. Im chris cane im the Government Affairs lead with electricifiy america the Largest Network of fast charging stations in the United States. We support this ordinance in many ways conversion of autoinfrastructure and charging infrastructure and stroll line permitting process. However, we have concerns about the applicablity ofbive 726 and ab1236 requires cities to stroll line permitting process for electric vehicle charging stations. Ab1236 includes requirements jurisdiction must approve ev charging application by a Building Permit or nondiscretionary permit. The extent this ordinance revised zoning control tables to require conditional use authorization which it proposes. Not in compliance with 1236. Jurisdiction considering adopting cu permitting creating charging station when the use permit may be requested after the Building Official identified a specific adverse impact to health or safety as defined; is a concerning president. We agree the bureaucratic delays avoided and updating the planning code [inaudible] is a positive development. We wish to ensure a safe statute is submitted. We ask this committee amend in a way compliant with ab1236 and that would be by or moving conditional use authorization requirement. Policy that approves exiting process for autouses to ev charging stations remaining compliant with ab1236 is still public and positive for San Francisco. Thank you. Lets take the next caller if you would like to peek on item one, press star 3 to do so. Good afternoon supervisor and thank you for considering this legislation. Im joanaityis i represent ev go we commented last week. I want to reiterate the upon comments we made last week around the conditional use authorization process. Specifically by creating an overly challenging cu process the companies that are likely to be able to have the resources, money and time to comply are going to be the Largest Companies that have floats. What you are going to what that will result in smaller fleets will see this as one additional head wind. Will not have resources to perform all of the requirements of the complicated cu process and you will be penal iegz mall fleets and making them unable to electricifiy. We are hoping that the cu be recently. Our preference is we not have a cu process but we would recommend we the cu process follows the time lines and guidance.

I will have mr. John cher come up and tell what you is going on. I have slides. Thank you. Im Jonathan Cherry with Workforce Development. Here to describe items 4 and 5 and joined by staff from the department of public works. This legislation would implement asspekts of the parkmerced project the Development Agreement approved the reconfiguring of streets with public rightofway exchanged for sections of private land will be new city streets deals with 1c and 1d of the project and similar to legislation approved for 1a and b. If i could get the next slide i will provide a brief background and explain how todays legislation fits. Over all, as shown on the slide, the project includes 5,000 new Housing Units plus one for one replacement 1500 rent controlled units with new units with new buildings. Tenability hos choose to move will preserve their existing reason levels after the move. There are other Public Benefits here an extensive owner maintained open space network. Transit improvements, 3 new muni platforms. And redesign of the car centric 1950s system with connectivity and safety for people walking and on bikes. So, the project sponsor is work to a start of construction in the first half of next year on phases 1a and 1b of the project. You see here that the phases are in the top left and bottom right of this slide. Completion of subdivision actions for subphases 1c and 1d, which are in blue, is needed as an important next step toward the start of construction. The subdivision maps for 1c and d approved by public works. The expectation is final map motions may come to the board for consideration then of this year. Will so, as i mentioned, the legislation before you allows are if the approved street reconfiguration in 1c and d. Public works director has certain conscience easements and protections that will remain in place during and throughout construction until new public streets are accepted by the city. I will quickly show you slide 5 in red vacated. The tea would receive more land in new public streets from the landowner. Part of the street vacation. And in green on the map you see the areas dedicated to the see as new public streets. And in phase one d there are no street vacations proposed. On slide 6, this is the proposed puc sewer and water easements that would be part of theistry street reconfigurations easements will not be need following construction and in the place ease ams remain in place for active lines until acceptance of new utilities by the city. Which time, the interim easements would terminate. Puc recommended approval on may 24th of this year. The final slide 7, so to recap. For item 4, which saturday residence lulgz of intent we would request that the mittee amend the resolution of intent on page 7, line 23. To add september 20th. As the public hearing date to consider the ordinance. And we would then ask the item 4 recommended as amended to the full board. And for item 5, we would ask that the ordinance be referred without recommendation to the board of supervisors meeting on september 20th of 22. With that, thank you very much for your time and im available for questions along with public work staff online. Thank you. Thank you, mr. Cherry. I have a question. Because during your presentation you talked about the other 2 phases. And you know what the relationship between this face and the other 2 phases. These 2 phases and the next 2 phases, can you give more detail what is outstanding that nodes to happen in in terms of legislation. Yes. Back to slide 3. Subphases 1a and b. Which are a total of 1, where are 13 units completed there subdivisions actions and approved final maps. We have street designs and there are buildings with site permits. Once they have those they Start Construction early next year. 1c and 1d we dont have an exact start date. It is i think they follow on after they compolice construction of the first 2 subphases and there is a representative here if you want more details. But generally, the subdivision of the 2 subphases in blue and the street vacations being proposed as part of that; are needed for the projects financing to allow construction to start on subphases 1a and 1 b. We brought this street vacation the items are coming now because of the long time line in the state code for street vacations. So there will be building designs. There will be final maps coming. Through the process in the next few months. This has the longest lead item so we brought this first y. Thank you, mr. Cherry. Could you leave that map up. Sfgovtv i asked this because the project of entitled in 2011 it has been a long time. And we often get questions from residence den in parkmerced what is going on. I dont know who is here. The thing has been the discussion in point of contention with folks in the community is the pedestrian bridge that connected to the other side of brotherhood way to get to st. Thomas moore. And the school. And so i asked you questions because i [inaudible]. Through the Transportation Authority we were informed you know, a couple months back that the cta has this area as a study area through connect sf, connecting the daily city bart station and pedestrian and bicycle paths through the other eastern side of brotherhood. I want to make sure for the public watch thanksgiving and watching us do this legislation on the street vacation that we are connecting. We have connect sf and the efforts we do to make sure that people understand the sequencing of decisions and when things are coming. Okay. Good afternoon, im phil with mack mus real estate partners. I understand the question correctly, it is where are we in terms of starting construction on phase one a and b as well as what does this mean for starting construction on c and d. I will give you a background the project was entitled in 2011 there was a ceqa lawsuit that took 3 and a half years inform 2014 i 5 year dent on the property and aimed to design the streets and buildings within 21 2 years and construct them within 21 2 years. Around 2019, it was when that 5 year period was up. We had not finalized the street improve am permit and needed to refinance the property then covid19 hit with economic impacts. We have not started a and b yet. Plan as it sits today, there are 2 things, a rirment from lendser to subdivide phase one c and d so we can take that land and use it as construction collateral with the lands in phase 1a and b to get a loan. First subdivide and then construct. At this point, we are looking at end of quarter 2 next year. To hopeful low Start Construction as long as the maps get approved on the schedule we participate. And as long as construction pricing is favorable and et cetera. But following the construction of phase one and b that is an 18 month process to 24 months. And i will note that phase one a and be have replacement united included for the units to be remove in the 1c and d. There will be no removal of any unit in phase 1a and b and we are 30 months out before there would be any demolition occurring on parkmerced of existing units. And how about the timing of the temporary or permanent. Jot timing for the bridge is unknown. It has been, we discussed the bridge may have to be corrected a street improve am permit which is phase 1b. Until we understand whether it is included we dont know when tell be constructed it needed to be designed. There is a time for a design prove to occur. Thank you very much. Welcome.

Supervisor mar, thank you for calling for this hearing the floor is yours. Thank you. For allowing us to hold this hearing today. I wanted to start by saying as we speak experiencing a record breaking heat wave and i spoke by phone with mt arc director in london. Sweating it out now to verify that. This is the latest example of more extreme weather patterns from changing upon climate. I will notityerate all the day its is crisis for our city, planet and species this hearing is intendsed focus on the most person local actions we can take to address at this time decarbonizing buildings. Bla report on the subject which we previously held a hearing on. And since then, we adopted more aggressive climate goals and the Climate Action plan. The d. Environment to propo vied a down payment for an equity hub and a financing study for the Climate Action plan. Tomorrow we vote to approve a city budget this furthers that can 2. Sick Million Dollars we fought hard to secure. Todays hear suggest focused on the building Operations Component of the Climate Action plan. To present a road map to building decarbonization. Work has lead to this presentation and discussion from sfe. A Large Coalition voosz Environmental Justice and labor and Climate Action community and from our office. I am grateful for all who pushed us here today. Without further adieu. Colleagues i want to welcome up cindy from the department of environment to present on this item. Good afternoon im cindy im the Climate Program manager at San Francisco department of environment. As supervisor mar said a year ago there was a hearing on the bla report and my colleague charles who is joining me virtually gave a presentation on the departments behalf. One of the recommendations to develop a building decarbonization road map. We created that road map. Today im here to present on that report. This is the agenda for todays presentation. I will spend the bulk of time on item 4 the upon range of strategies and actions needed to decarbonize San Franciscos belling stock. First i will discuss who data informed the proisz of developing strategies and actions to decarbonize bellings. I want to provide terminology. Decarbonization is e eliminating Green House Gas from buildings and now our Promising Technology is electricification. That is replacing natural gas with electric technologies that use clean electricity. In the future there may be new innovations in carbon reduction space. Today we focus on electric. This shows our historic e missions. The chart shoes total city e missions we see 41 of e missions from Green House Gas. And this is primarily from comp bustion of natural gams 87 of our building operation e missions from natural gas. The bar chart on the right shows the break down of e missions with residential and commercial sector. And we have seen significant decrease in building e missions since 1990. What is interesting is hacommercial building e missions used to be 55 of our building and today it is 42. And we have seen a 67 reduction in commercial building since 1990 points to the work we need in the residential sector. Next i am provide an over view on community solutions. The different types of solutions that are proposed are ground in the data and cocreated with a wide range of stake holders. Is this shoes the building cocreating electric programs and policy options in 2019 we launched zero e Mission Task Force with 4 subgroups and Steering Committee worked on developing the strategies and out come the community wanted to see in the space. We took them to the public vetted through workshops. In english and language and web nears and Online Platform where people can leave feedback. We had a Task Force Report and this feedback informed the Climate Action plan. The decarbonization road map is the building operation chapter prosecute our Climate Action plan. Discuss the goal and principle in shaped this road map. Through the chapter 9 update of the environment code that was passed by the board of supervisors a year ago, we have established a sector based gas reduction of 61 by 2030 and net zero by 2040. We have goals for each and the building operations we have a goal for all new building to be net zero by 2021 and all large existing commercial buildings to be net zero by 2035. This slide shoes the principles the Climate Solutions are root in the. San franciscos prop to reaching net zero grounds in the racial and social equity. Reducing building e missions offers an opportunity to advance other city key priorities such as Public Health. 1 publicity 9 billion dollars. There is a lot of Economic Opportunity in electrifying building result in 2,000 to 3,000 full time, 30 year career jobs across a range of occupations. Each building sector will have a different pact getting off natural gas and i will go through that. Starting with new construction covers all sectors there are 2 main proposed actions. Upon one policy put in place requires all new constructed buildings to are electric and need to update that ordinance to include alternateerations not included in the initial ordinance. So next is existing residential. Be all electric will be changing and will node to require inclusive engagement and stake hold torse cocreate the policies and provide funds to support solutions. Swon a time of replace am policy. Which means that when natural Gas Appliance at the ends of useful life it is replaced with all electric appliance this is the most Cost Effective time to replace because the marginal cost is small. Second policy a time of sale policy. San francisco has a Residential Energy conversation ordinance. And this could be expanded include a range of electric measures. As we evaluate the options we know we need to provide education for residents and make it easy. This includes stroll lining permitting and looking for additional ways through district scale electric solutions. The last item i want to discuss is something that supervisor mar mentioned the Climate Equity hum it start friday ideas from Community Stake holders. And if we go to the next slide, left year we had received funding from the board of spierzs to facilitate a press to better understand what the Climate Equity hub could be intended for a one stop shop for residentses that reflects San Francisco value in equity and he a Just Transition to a low carbon economy. Thus far we worked with a consultant and had 29 stake holder interviews and work groups the feedback from the stake holders is on this slide. We are going to have the final meeting next week to discuss the model for hub and potentially have seed fund to initiate this concept this fiscal year. For small commercial building near residential. Time of replacement the most Cost Effective okay. For large are commercial bellings there is complex technical and financial considerations. Using a building performance standard set the building performance standard in term Green House Gas e missions. There are 6 steles that have already implemented building performance standardses including new york city and boston. There is a couple states. And in january the white house launched the building Performance Coalition work group. Next slide. Last but not least existing municipal buildings they represent a small fraction of the Green House Gas e missions, gentleman can lead by example. To eliminate emissions from their own buildings. The Public Sector can support economic develop and want send signals to the market place. Through the Green Building task force we are updating chapter 7 it require all municipal buildings to be all electric and have it make sure this is reflected in the capitol plan. There are many cross cutting objections we are support the over all success of it and that some of those priorities include Workforce Development and tenant protections. For those leaving carbon intensive industries and disadvantaged workers. Seek employment. Must guide our Policies Program and investments. We want to make sure we provide protections to tenantses and ensure upgrades for making on buildings do not displace renters. We will discuss next steps. While this road map does provide a path way forward. There are significant challenges and incredible transfurthermoration is going to be needed to take us to the next place. We cant do that alone. We will mead to engage the community, business and professional organizations in the evidence and impelementation of policies supporting this. Yl equal engage am through Capacity Building and grant makes and out reach around building electric and lastly we will need to commission robust Technical Analysis and economic studies to share to ensure the design and effective and equitable policies. That concludes my presentation im happy to answer questions. Thank you, i question we allow Public Comment. There arefect this ismented to share comments on the belling road map before we get to questions and discussion. Go to Public Comment on this item. Thank you, are there members of public had would like to speak on item 6. Approach the podium. Good to see you im so excite third degree is Getting Started my comment is brief i will read it. Now come your task is hop to it figure out how to get the funding. The good new system that you are a priors and one of the wealthiest cities in the world. You dont have to put up with any excuse you will hear a lot. Getting the methane out of our Building System a critical part of the Climate Action plan and something that we will have a quick pave inrousing our ghgs, which is good news because we are behind our climate goals. And you know theres are terrible time us hear that many parts of the world are hotter than the pits of hell because of climate change. And unless we do it and do this quickly. We cannot make our climate goals we are behind the curve on them. I look forward to hearing and reading that you are moving boldly ahead on this because you will go down in history for it.

Here we are a progressive city with progressive leaders im look to you, supervisors, for leadership and climate transformation for electrifying building and getting gas out of homes in our home we dont use the stove it is hard to breathe when we do. I think about all of the big landlords and how they are building houses. Apartments and whats going in them. You guys you men and women, individuals can influence the safety of our homes. And our trajectory for climate mitigation. So im look to you to fund the building decarbonization project. Why thank you for sharing your comments. Folks on item sick the Climate Action plan item.

Of the Climate Action plan. Thank you. Next caller. Francisco decosta i want to talk on a number of issues. First thing i feel strongly our restaurants need a say in this matter. We need to do a Needs Assessment how we will do it. Over a period of time. And goals for year 2035. But in the interim, we need to have some methodology to get the Empirical Data on all our bellings. Concrete buildings. And we need to challenge ourselves, why are we still building skyscrapers . And what are those impacts going to be. We seem to understand that we have many, many acres prone to flooding. From fourth and king going to geneva where gas spills in the air. And our city never once talked about it. If you go to Hunters Point shipyard and we have a parcel e2, they have wells making gas wells. That spew methane gas in the air. We never once mentioned about this. So i was lynch to chu from department of environment. Thank you, mr. Decosta. We are going to switch gears we have in person Public Comments. On item 6. This is the citys 2022 Climate Action plan on todays agenda. Can you approach the podium you have 2 minutes to speak. Hi.

Supreme courts decision limiting the power to regulate Green House Gas e missions and mansion and anticlimate disaster the u. S. Senates are setbacks at the federal level that does not stop the cities and states from acting we dependow the local leaders to step up and show the courage we know you have. Take seriously the presentation you heard. And many things, thifrngs to priors mar for calling the mote and how complex an issue this will be. If we are successful address thanksgiving results will be effective and ensuring everyone live in safe and Healthy Homes training workers and contractors to get it done the climate hub you issued general fund money will be key in helping the sectors figure out challenges they might face and find resources to address. People have to understand how important getting rid of Gas Appliances is to health and safetiment [speak fast] getting the word oust with whatever it takes do what it takes to Fund Legislation bonds establishing a public bank. State or federal grants so everyone in the city can pip inspect this giant endeavour. I will close by quoting, people see climate as a tomorrow problem.

Good afternoon supervisors, im harry i have the pleasure of chairing the local sierra Group Conversation committee. Early 30 year we did sends a letter to you, supervisor mar, and it is about the need to establish a Pilot Program to begin to address the question. Of how do we decarbonize our built environment . It was rather disappointing a couple montes to read that the park taken the step forward. The first in the bay area. Perhaps the first on the west coast. Ithaca, new york is the other city that has done this. And seems to me if we are agreed that there is a Climate Crisis and that carbonization in our buildings is really a major issue we have to deal with. The costs are e normous, we need to begin to plan ask so whether or not well is money, it is included in the budget for this year. It would be very helpful to at least have a task force appointed bid board that could report and give us a time line to say, here is a projection of what we want to accomplish by this date and by this date. We dont have a lot of sometime this is a major step we could move forward on. Thank you very much for your time thank you for your comments are there other members who would like to speak on item 6 .

And that was the left caller in the queue. Thank you. With that, Public Comment is closed. Supervisor mar . Thanks chair ronen and advocates and all of you have been a key part of pushing us as a city and us as city leaders to step up and address the Climate Emergency and much more bold and progressive and bold and aggressive way in the city. We should lead the country on the issues not being a step behind. Ithaca, new york as barry said even around building decarbonization work. So, i did have a few questions about the building decarbonization road map. And thank you again for your work on this and the staff. I want to say that i think that this is a step forward to start taking the building Operations Component of the Climate Action plan and turning it in a road map for building decarbonization but it is is still i foal like what has been presented today and what you guys produced, back in january is lacking in the necessary details. To ensure we will really be move thanksgiving worked for in a bolder way. And really to ensure we will meet our goal of net zero by 2040. It is really i appreciate that the that it has you know key strategies and policies laid out and in the key sectors identified new construction and existing buildings. Broken brown by municipal. I dont well is so far there has been a total lack of time lines and met tricks on how we will measure progress and of course funding and financing of the work. You know is still not there is nothing you know this hen presented. So i wanted see if you could respond. Like. If there is a plan to put more details in the building decarbonization road map time lines or progress and then financing. I think it is solid on the strategies and policies, i appreciate that. Thank you, supervisor mar. I concur the road map is a shell and does not have all of the details. We do have detailed work plans for all the different sectors moving forward. Right now we are trying to focus on the existing residential sector. So, after we conclude the Climate Equity hub process, you know we are hope to convene a group of stake holders to get input on the policy options. And moving those forward. In the residential and commercial sector now our next plan is to look at major renovations and working with the necessary stake holders to understand the different types of triggers this we necessary to out line in the legislation. And the municipal sector made progress on chapter 7 we are ready to introduce legislation soon once we find a sponse. Details are not within it is road map we are done a lot of work to makure we are moving ahead to accomplish those goals. I want to mention we also just concluded the first 6 mons of looking at progress in the Climate Action plan and we will be presenting this to our commission of the environment on tuesday. That looks at all the different actions and strategies andment aring back to us. We hope the ends of the year to start work on a dash board to make the information you just requested available to the public so people can see the progress and ask questions about it. Great. That sounds great. Exciting. To hear that you are able to access fund to create i dash board to chart this work. It is my sense one of the challenges in correct mow if im wrong in the department really moving more aggressively in flushing out the planful is staff capacity constraind and reliant on outside Funding Grant funding. But we are able to take steps towards investing general fund dollars in the Department Last year and bigger steps this year. What is the staffing capacity now. Building decarbonization and Operations Component of the Climate Action plan . The capacity is limited. Staffing shortages are real. Hopeful low we will hire focus on the building prescription sector of the Climate Action plan. Now from the add back from last year one residential building decarbonization coordinator spearheading the climate hub in the residential sector. One works fwif of the time on munl bellings and small funding from dbi we work on building codes and error small portion of the commercial building sector. That is mostly enforcing existing ordinances the existing building ordinance and upcoming ordinance 100 renewable electricity for large commercial bellings. It is less than one full time person now. Different people. Thats not correct it is about 2 full time staff people. We have plans for the fiscal year to really invest in building operations so we can implement the policy and programs that everyone cease necessary. Thank you. You said there is one full time. One full time and peace of different people that add up to a second person. And do you recall hawas your budget principle that was presented to the mayor not approve exclude added back in the budget process . For building operations sector work. I believe we had 5 to sick people we wanted hire in building operation sector and it has been scaled back to 3 appeal with the potential budget we have moving forward that will focus on the residential sector. Really leading this building decarbonization and also hiring someone who does Workforce Development and Community Engage am. Got it. And for the limited the 2. 6 Million Dollars that the board added back to the department for staffing and Climate Action plan, is any of that used to increase staff capacity for building operation sector . Yes. I apologize my last comment was in the clear our intention is t hire 3 for the building operation sector. Sounds great. Yea. And then i big piece of this work and looking ahead to achieve goals and moving boldly is resources. And financing plan. And it will require some public subsidy to really get this work going especially given where we are now. So can you share an update on the financing plan work that that was made public through the add back the board did last year in Million Dollars. Last were we were able to hire a Consultant Team that was the center for lot Energy Environment from beshg low and civic makers to develop a long terp funding study for sudden front. Thus for, we had 2 large convenings with Community Based organizations and Financial Experts and other individuals this have contributed to a draft funding study report this has been shared with our department. We are going through that draft report and rewith the Advisory Committee and hope to have i final report in september and work with civic makers to do out reach on that report to really see that the best options are for San Francisco to move forward. So by the end of this year we will have all that information public low available and also socialize with our important stake holders that contributed to a lot of the work we have been doing thus far. Thank you for this update. And i guess i had one final comment or question. Just for the over all really person work i think the zero e missions Building Task force you referenced in your presentation did help to inform the planning for this road map. And it goes become to last year had that task force is meeting. And i think a similar task force is critical for continuing stake holer engage am as the work moves forward and ramps up. And irrelevant for over site and and excuse me, holding the department and our city accountable. So00 eyemented ask. Would you see a value in reson venaled task force of like the specific low focused on building operations. And implementation of the building road map. Or for the Climate Action plan as a whole . Yes , i think that was a great model and manage we could help exempt impmeant the action plan and building operation sector. Great to hear that. To ensure strong engage am from the stake holders in the city pushing us on this. Thank you. Thanks chair melgar. Thank you supervisor mar. I had a couple questions. So first, thank you for your amazing work. I always appreciate hearing your analysis and you know know everything this come out is topnotch. I had a question after looking at this about participation of communities. So you know, on an economic level, decarbonization hits someone different if than i live in my neighborhood. In a Single Family home afford a wolf stove over machine who does not have heat in rent controlled studio apartment with you know 3 kids. So im wondering in terms of you know your the strategies and the support actions and operationalidesing this; who is advising the department in terms of you know sort of the economics of it and how it interacts with rent control pass throughs and those issues . Thats one question. My second question is upon you have been since most of the admissions residential low from heat and cooking, im wondering about the cultural aspects in the commune participation who is informing the department who you are bringing in the conversation i was born and raised in elsalvador. Our National Dish is yummy but cooked on an open fire on a grill example you notice it is an integral park of identity i cook them on an electric griddle. But oftentimes for traditional dishes that are developed over an open fire or high heat. Well is a transition that nodes to happen and it is easy to you know, convey the message in a way that is received you know appropriate low and not you know as a culturaly dismissive or disrespectful. Im you know im out so i want to make sure when we are doing is effective and the same time respectful and folks can make the transification because they want to they see it good for themselves, planet and there is not resistance because we are not having that message go through appropriately thank you, those are Great Questions i will answer the first question really about the economics of building the decarbonization and costs. Last year, supervisor mar did commission a cost that are extensive. Now what we are doing is going to try to work to understand the different packages electric packages property for different buildings and understand the income and where subsidies are needed. Not all income levels will be available to afford the expense of electric options moving forward. And our intentions are through the longterm funding study i tuck body and through dog Economic Analysis to understand who can afford what to make sure that as we propose the policies we bring forth that information extending the subsidies needed to support our low income communities. I think twhoon is shaped bite Economic Analysis but as supervisor mar said, i tried to acknowledge in our presentation, is this we need to do more commune engage am. We will work with groups and other different Environmental JusticeCommunity Organizations to help make sure that we are doing thing in a equal and culturally appropriate way. With the money we received from the board of priors moving forward, we are going to plan to do an Environmental JusticeGrant Program. Give money to commune based organizations so they can work with the communities that they are rooted in. What we than the organizations in San Francisco have those close ties and understand constituents better than i can the goal is to work with the organizations to community the messages around building decarbonization. The second question, around cooking. I think that is everyones big fear that we will come and take their gas stoves away and that will require an education and out reach with compassion and understanding this people have use said natural gas for the last 100 years and it will be a transition for people to get off of it. We are hoping to do something calls, energy fair in a box we go to different faris. Bring induction stoves. People learn about them and we can do different cooking demonstrations. We have done a couple during the pandemic online. We hope in the fall we will do in person engage am. So people can see the out put from induction stoves and learn how they are healthier for you. Thank you, i really appreciate that. So you know people have been using fire to cook for thousands of years. Natural gas late 1800s in london fire people using beginning of time, yes. You was going to add the department of Public Health through the sugar tax program has been funding all sorts of Community Efforts to help folks develop Cooking Skills especially like for kids. It would be a Great Partnership if we could do both at the same time. You know i would encourage you guys to look at that. Because i than there has been a curriculum developed by may an association in the tenderloin for Public Schools and other folks. Would be good to look at to leverage what others are doing to incorporate it. Thank you very much. Great idea. Thank you for sharing it. Thanks, again. Chair melgar and colleagues. I want to close by acknowledging really all the advocates and the groups that have worked with us in the department of environment. The emraled cities collaboratives. Climate emergency coalition. 350 bay area and climate reality project and others. And thank you, cindy for your presenting today as well as all of your work on the road map and the Climate Action plan. And charles and you know who has been instrumental and tyrone jew who hit the grounds running and supervisor mandelman for his partnership on this work as limp clothe its is clear we need a whole of government response to the Climate Crisis that meets a scale of the crisis. There is critical work on the local level and natural gas in buildings is the biggest source of Green House Gas in San Francisco we have to lead and move quickly. I intends to follow fruthe hearing with actions including legislation to form a building Decarbonization Task force to provide a space for work across departments in climate and labor stake hold torse remove Green House Gases and provide over site and input to make the actions a reality. I will be pushing to update our chapter 7 of the environment code as soon as possible to realize all electric municipal buildings and to introduce the priority policies needed to begin decarbonizing large commercial buildings as well. As we update the calf capitol plan in the coming months early next year, i believe that we must prioritize Green Infrastructure in the plan and as a city, we have not oozed bonds to full po serb in Climate Action and meet the goals we set and that are required to have a liveable planet we use every tool at disposal including bond financing. Thanks, colleagues for this hearing i look forward to further work and discussion on the actions. With that, i request this we go ahead and foil this hearing today. Okay. Lets do that.

Dpx a level 2 project. However, at Yesterdays Program and allocations meeting, we asked to move it to level one or a category such as level 1b where we continue to pursue our Grant Programs. 41 Public Comments including myself and Community Members from the east cut and near by sf neighborhoods with transit add cohave a the labor partners asking the mtc to move dpx into praised phase one this. Is reflecting a number of differences with dtx and other in that category including the fact that dtx received all environment after clearances.

An advanced state of redness with utility relocation beginning next year and general silv construction in 2025. Completed or secured funding for 42 of all Transbay ProgramConstruction Costs includes the completion of the sales powerhouse transit and other costs we have dedicated to phase 2 of the dpx.

Thank you, chair. Excellents question. Yesterdays meeting at the program and Allocations Committee was informational they proposed the framework and open to committee and Public Comment. They received extensive comment requesting dtx prioritized above level 2 fellow projects. I would welcome the boards participation as we approach in september action item and then the commission to under scorch the need for dtx to be included in level one. Our primary concern as i mentioned is that we have the Regional Support to apply for the matching fundses and those include the state level the federal state partner shoulded rail and federal level and other source that can help us meet that matching requirement by august of next year to stay on schedule with the fta.

Fasillity operation ass update and downtown work plan schedule update and downtown rail extension project delivery alternative study update. Lilly provide the report on activities of the last 5 weekends and included funding for you dtx and wayfinding improvements 600 Million Dollars. Both of these items generated commentses and questions from members. Wong and shore comment in [inaudible] wayfinding said he findses difficult at the terminal in south and imagine it is more difficult for first time users. Anthony asked for clarification what the new fundings would be used for and hopes there will be consistent they will be consistent with the wayfinding signage mta and other agencies use. I will talk more about comment on the dpx study further down in the report. The facility update was the last we receive before the appointment of a new director of facilities. You will hear that in september. The staff report resulted in more committee comments on problems with wayfinding. And these were echoed by gloria lee. Robinson asked when beer battle would open the answer was august. [inaudible]. [speaking fast] Alfonso Rodriguez gave the dtx work plan update including funding application process. One item and again you heard the mtc did not approve of get listed and its level one recommendations. Of projects. We are looking at level 2, they are trying to get to we are get nothing level one b. Howard wong made the point that work has been done including the train box and transit center. And other competing projects that got rated higher dont have that. You know they dont have what i call, credibility ours have we delivered a large portion of the project. During Public Comment. [inaudible] said that the pmoc the project mechanicment oversight consultant for south bay transit projects recommended a large increase in cost estimate and this dtx should be prepared. This was Public Comment and00 autopmoc is something we will get started with. Part of the process and one that we better will be used to in responsive to as we progress. Al fonzo rodriguez gave the dtx project alternative update including the review of the components and gave us a comprehensive description with acronyms of the delivery method they are considering for each component. One components called enabling work and included utility relocation site prepation. I said that this isolate thanksgiving work in an early separate contract was a good idea in utility relocation has a large potential for delays. Rather than having such problems costly delays to subscent more expensive compoenltss of the program, getting them done in a separate contract mitigates approximate terrible for the damage. Howard wong includes the design build delivery method requirement to award the contract to low bidder risk an award to contractor with the agency knows, is one that tries to get [inaudible] change orders. Alfonso replied using the construction manages general contract our arc voids that by early selection and subcontracting work is bid. Thats the large part of the cost. Anyway, i scribbled 5 page of notes and as i went become to put together this report i could barely read them. Some comments from labron and from the Committee Members i could not understand what my notes said i cant report now i apologize to you and those members where i may be did not give as much time in the report they deserve i will do better next time.

They will you believe charged with reviewing the plans for completeness and thats one of the reporter s to enters the next phase. New starts grants program the engineering phase. The project delivery strategy provides a recommendation for dtx construction condition transact packages by leadership and the final delivery method by contract package based on size and complexity. Market and Risk Assessment you heard about. Cac will hear im sorry. The board will see this item as in coming up in this meeting today. The rebarraged plan is intended identify and communicate the protect in a way that reflects importance to the megaregion and the state.

This will be a letter of agreement the parties negotiating longer Term Agreement and Alfonso Rodriguez will present and after we take a slight pause. Thank you, nila im a unique situation i serve as a director on the cal train board but not an employee of cal train in caution i will recuse myself from this item and turn the meeting over to vice chair mandelman to handle item 13. I will disappear for a bit and come become when this item is completed. Vice chair machine man gavel is yours. Thank you. Thank you, chair gee. Alfonso. Great. Thank you. Item 13 a letter of agreement with the jpb as in the earlier mou item with the city and one of those identified critical Third Party Agreements fta grant guidance. They are engage in the developing a Master Cooperative Agreement to be included in the august 2023 application. For federal grants. Upon the mca with cal train address topics including funding of the cal train grant eligible costs design and construction support and coordination. The mca have the entire Design Construction and operating phases in addresses temporary surface encoachment at the rail regard. Permitting construction coordination. Operations and sxhans rehab as well as asset disposition. When negotiated the mca will be brought before the cal train boards for adoption which is anticipated next year in the spring. In the interim before can be negotiated, tjpa requires considerable coordination with cal train including information sharing, design and operational and other documentation input to ensure they meet mile stones in the accelerated work plan and requirements of the ft arc grant. Cal train incurred costs in 437,000. In fiscal 2122. And support of this effort the beyond the role on the executive Steering Committee and support on the integrated project management team. Cal train has developed an estimate for additional cost in support of the project during fiscal 2223 in the aim of 2 million 883 thousand. Last month cal train board includes in fy budget a 1. 5 Million Dollars capitol contribution toward the dtx Program Costs and the proposed in the loa to be used assage off set to cal trains incurred cost balance from available 22cfd bond proceeds. This concludes my remarks im available to answer your questions. Thank you al fonlso. See whether any other vase chair mandelman i would like to also point out there was a small modification of a staff report distributed last night to remove an unnecessary paragraph related the relationship anyone cal train and high speed rail. There was no changes to the letter of agreement or the resolution considering it. Those items we rain the same there is a revised staff report pested to the website and in your packets today. Thank you. Im not sure if im looking at the right place i dont see hands up. Why director lipkye. There we go. And thank you vice chair and thanks adam for the update and the memo you guys made last night that was helpful clarification. I have a question for alfonso and you know in reading the letter of agreement the scope that is in there is a one sentence scope of work for cooperation in support of the work program and the ffga process. And so what will be the internal mechanism and process to authorize cal train to do work under the letter of agreement. How will that function in if this is approved thank you member lipkye, the work we expect from cal train is continuing the w they have been performing already. The w to help us finalize engineering. The costs estimate. All the operating requirements and the various documentation. There is a substantial amount of w and time they invest in dtx and have been doing that. We did look at the possibility of try toityerate that scope and that scope of work is so extensive it is better suit in the the mca along with other tasks than i will be required perform. We decide ticket had a simple reflection of the w that they are already doing and allow thanksgiving loa to serve as reimbursement mechism to access that was the way to go. I do recognize the question. My response is that a tailed scope of work will be presented in the mca. Okay. I mean may be if i can respond to that a bit because and am i recognize im not trying to quiet work cal train is doing and know all agents are pulling resources to help with dtx they have an additional burden with the fta interrelationship. I am not questioning the effort that cal train nodes to under take. I guess haseems miss to me is before cal train this is a 3 Million Dollars contract or agreement with exam train. To do the work is authorization would be helpful that would have some out line i know you dot general mca the next years work i imagine mag you have a specific deliverables or things you need design reviews or other functions you node to perform and it seems like useful to have a mechanism that sets out a previce scope, budget circumstantial evidence and deliverables that they get for the money that is being proposed here. I gis will leave that for other Board Members to consider or the staff to consider. But to me that would be a good control mechanism to make sure that you were the place i dont want to be is arguing with cal train over was that charge appropriate. I think having documentation before work gets done at least as a state Agency Perspective this issure way of doing business and i think there is good reason that is the general practice we had. Through the chair and director lipkye and i may ask our council to weigh inmented to gift board additional assurance of the process here that it it is the loa contemplates recital in the memorandum of understand thanksgiving layout of the work agreed to. That is includes the work plan, accelerated work schedule. Fda requirements for ffga and mechanisms to reimburse should monthly invoices from cal train which node to include sdripgsz. Work. Staff classifics, hours and billing rates that is included in section e3 in exhibit c. Retains the authority to were reject inappropriate charges and the parties agree to meet over disputed charges. That tjpa is audit and terminate under section 4. Thank you directors, thank you for the question i know tjpa is conscious of that all dollars on the project are carefully spent and that the dollars are controlled. I would point out as to your question about hascope cal train is expected to participate in, i look at the mou which the parties high speed rail and the city entered as describing the work this they collectively agree needs to get accomplished. Nested within this it is a work program that described at a high level of defy tail a certain tasks that node to be accomplished this is referenced in the loa and nested within that, is the accelerated work plan approved bite board. Which is a 21 page document that has on the order of 600 tasks that are specific low identified as being required with a time schedule attached them. And i think nested within this our weekly meetings among the parties to describe what is expected to occur in short term. I foal like tgpa has controls over expectations of where cal train will contribute work project thenvilleidate against monthly invoices submitted by cal train. Adam or appreciate that feedback. Commissioner lipkye. I dont think i have more to stay. May be this is where we have differences and views and you know i think protecting again the place of stronger documentation products you at the time there is a disagreement. I think what you describe when things are well this is in the an issue. But i think woeltd be better served with a stronger authorize of work being done under the laa expected to be reimburse third degree is good practice. And so think about doing the item but will be my recommendation. Thank you. Commissioner lipkye. Upon i dont see anymore. Yea. I dont see anymoring hands. We can check on Public Comment. I also dont see. Moderator could you verify. No Public Comment. All right. All right. Public comment on this item is closed. We need a motion to approve. I believe. Correct. So moved tumlin. Second forbes. And call the roll. Item 13 the loa can cal train director forbes. Aye. Director baptiste. Aye. Director lipkye. Abstain. Director shaw. Aye. Director tumlin. Aye. Vice chair mandelman. Aye. And chair gee is recused with that item 13 is approved. Go ahead and check for. I will hand the gavel back to chair gee. Thank you vice chair mandelman recusal process is great. This is perfect. Thank you, directors. Item 14. We the get to item 14 is approving the downtown rail exception deliver prop to include a design build for single civil and tunnel contract and construction that management general contractor for the systems. Electronic work and station fit out scope with conscience from limitation. And al fonzo rodriguez project jerk and jesse kaylar Program Manager will present the item. Great, thank you. Bring up the slide tech. Jason. The saturday and recommendations reflect the nodes of downtown rail exception project in our as well as project characteristics setting risk tolerance and capable. I thought it would be helpful to walk through the major project elements of dtx before we get in the details of the project delivery study and recommendations. Over all, there are 2. 4 miles of total construction within townsend and Second Street and the surface at the cal train rail yards and along 7th street with track work. There is 1 and a half miles of tunnel alignment length. A new under ground registration at fourth and towns ends street. And partial loam under the cal train rail yard. The sales force station box already built will be extended the east under the tgta owned propertiful other surface features ventilation and emergency e aggress structures. Construction items in the sales force Transit Centers, station and fourth and townsends station that are not critical to train operations. Track work elements on the surfist and below ground in the tunnel and stations. And all system work that are required for safe train operation. Those are the elements of dtx go to the next slide. Upon so. In december last year, ip mt considered a range of Contract Packaging and delivery options narrowed to those on the slide. The project construction elements i covered are listed on the left in gray. And they again include enabling works which include this is advance utility relocation site clear and prep rigz for off sight staging. This it is to be delivered through a design bid build approach. General contract station excavation, cut and cover sections or top down construction, including the dtx section, the athlete, that is that area leading up to the Sales Force Transit Center to the west end of the station box under second and howard streets. The tunnel section which begins at one end townssxendz third and up Second Street to the athlete area. Station fit out and systems i mentioned earlier, which are not critical to train operation but required for station functionality. And core systems and track work involve the elements necessary for train operation. To the right are the various delivery methods assigned construction elements starting with a progressive design build. The construction manager general contract or or cmgc and further to the right a progressive design build includes financing component for the general civil contract identified as pdbf. All options include the opportunity for early contractor involvement for the various construction elements sept work program and all options do include the enabling work contract in gray. I will turn it over to jesse who will walk us through details. Jesse . Thanks alfonso. Good morning directors. The project deliver study team heads identified options 5 and 6 as the recommended approach for dtx with this approach reflecting as alfonso said the progressive dine for the tunnel and civil works with one or two cmgc contractses. Option 7 with construction period private finance identified a potential viable alternative option subject to consideration as the projects work program continues. Zeroing in options 5 and 6. They reflect the selecting a progressive design build and contractors. Not with standing their different names their props are siblings of one another. Contract models reflect a Preconstruction Service phase in which the Contractor Team is selected work with the owner to develop the final design and negotiate a final contract in an open book fashion. Will the distinction with the 2 approach system this under the progressive design build. Responsibility is transferred to the contractor where as under the cmgc design responsibility we tained by the Public Sector. Under options 5 and 6 responsible for managing the interface between no audio. Progressive design build contract. This includes managing the cordmation of activities during the preconstruction face in the progressive Design Builders development of design for civil works the final note one versus 2 contracts. A single cmgc reduce innerfaces rivering management coordination by tjpa. 2 contracts allow for selection of teams close low arc lined to areas of the special and scope and prop of 2 contracts facilitate differing props to multiagency roles. For example. A deeper level of engage am from the operators on core systems and track work. The recommendation regarding options 5 and 6 reflects rationals. With respect to dtx the recommend ace for Single Design build for all civil works reflects in part the node for a single party to manage in constraints of construction and staging and access if tunnelling and other activities. The cmgc systems track and station fit out reflects the preference of the operators for the Public Sector to retain responsibility for the work packages. In addition to the dtx specific consideration this mornings recommendation reflects there hen an evolution in the industry the past years generally away from large lump sum contracts such as convention at design build to more collaborative methods for those projects with under grounds construction, more complex system components this reflects the experience of both owner who is have seen out turn or final cost in excess of initial bid or contract process as well as the experience of contractors who have seen losses on certain projects. The progressive approach under lines design build is an intended support collaborative derisk and 3 and transparent risk allocation through the Preconstruction Service phase with the infenldzed aim of supporting better price and the develop. Of collaborative rep with the Delivery Agency and contractor opposes to an add serial relationship tochlt elaborate we use the process which the progressive design build temselective the formal process with issuance of request for qualifications with this rfq press leading to short listings of three teams.

The tgpa off r. Or exit from negotiations with the selected team. A set of procurement steps pursued for the contracts for systems, track and stations. As i mentioned in addition to options 5 and sick the studies recommendations include maintaining option 7 as potentially viable option subject to further know asbestos through work program the next number of months. Option 7 is variation of 5 and 6 the progressive design build contract include project finance provided by the Design Build Team the share of costs is a percentage of the total out lay with the Public Sector providing the billions and the contractor paid a completion or following a brief warranty period. Putting private capitol at risk and completion of scope is incentivized and the private finance can play a role in the financing plan for managing project cash flow needs. Design build finance prochs used and successfully not guilty Kevin Anderson dan transit market the last 10 plus year, a final decision will be informed by work including risk process, Financial Plan and marketing engagement. The delivery study team conducted afternoon assessment of longterm approach or option 10. Under option 10 the condition transactor responsible for designing and constructing the project as well as providing services during an approximately 30 year operating term. Understood thap transit prescriptions will be the responsible of the operating agencies, option 10 would incorporate other prescriptions, maintenance and rehab activities in the project contract. Such as life assignment mainlies. Aim of an approach is to integrate operational and life cycle operation in thes design and construction of the project. P3 agreements specify the asset handed become to the public in good refair. The p flow approach has additional oversight with the provision of private finance across the longterm contract. There are several factors that make consideration of it unique. Dtx is an extension of a long are system and more typical longterm p3 would be for green field or stand alone system. Given the scale construction for tunnelling and civil construction, the potential amount of transferred scope is modest for dtx, higher level of scope would provide greater opportunities for longterm Risk Transfer and resulting have you to the Public Sector. P3 agreements are general low more inflexible during the operating period and the impact on the p3 agreement of changes to infrastructure as the risystem develops is challenge to plan for at the time of contract award prior to construction. I will turn the presentation over to alfonso. Thank you, jesse. Go to the next slide. The next 2 slides represent recommendations. They begin can im going to skr to read them off quickly the first is to implement the wace program i discussed derisening delivery of learninger primary contracts that follow. Utilizing the practicalive form of project procurement to provide collaborative engagement and something we heard from the industry during our soundings. To deliver the tunnel and civil scope through progressive design build contract. To deliver the core system supporting system and station fit out scope through 1 or 2 contracts. Which allows to retain more control. Delivery of maintenance and rehab scopes for arrangements coordinated with infrastructure design and construction. Ef these wrap up our recommendations to complete the design and capitol costs estimate assuming 2 separate contracts in order to maintain flexibility until design and Risk Assessment and sounding and inform us on selecting a preferred approach. To determine the contracts by october of 2022 when the activities will need to be completed. Consider the potential of including private finance in the tunnel and civil pro progressive build option informed by funding plan. Appropriate an implementation road monopoly for project delivery the reporter s for successful low implementing the delivery method. And this will in become before the board when it is finalize said. And to coordinate the plan with the other work stream activities i mentioned early the Risk Assessment. Capitol goff and funding plan study this concludes or formal presentation we are available to address questions. Thank you. Appreciate the presentation and the report. Questions . Comments . Ideas, thoughts . This director forbes, i appreciated this presentation i thought it was thorough and really gave the board a good sense of what is coming and what are the policy options and explorations you are going through. So thank you for the presentation i expect to see others like this as you march through the analysis and make recommendations. Thank you. Thank you. Director forbes. Other directors . I would like to ad this i am glad to see the strong level of collaboration. As well as the quality of staff that both organizations gotten on board in order to over see in very important project that will last i long time. Thank you. Chair looks like vice chair mandelman . Please. Vice chair mandelman. Thank you. I want to echo the thanks for all of the good work by tgpa and sfta staff on this. It is very important part of the process and you know determine a lot of stuff about the next you know 5 to 10 years. Our lives and you know i think they are showing care and thinking about the things from all angles and so im grateful for that work and hoping that we can actually be delivering a capitol project in a way that we can be proud of 15 years from now. Thank you. Looking forward to t. Other directors. Why director gee this director shaw. I echo everybodys comment this is is great work. I wondered about the private financing. Because the private there is short. So my expectation is that they have already been talking to people or have an idea this might be a good alternative. I guess im asking how confident than i feel this actually is a good option. Going forward. Thank you director shaw i the attempt to answer and jesse if you like to add. I think what you saw in the presentation is we would like to keep it as an option to the recommended approaches that we are presented in the reason why we want an option is of course we still have our the funding plan work ahead of us. That will help us decide whether that is a requirement or not. To help us advance the project. So it is just a recommendation to keep it as an option until in the future. Jesse . Thanks the thing i add is a point of clarification that under option 7 the option that includes private finance the form of finance is in the associated with i longterm return. To the contractor. It is i form of bridge financing during the construction period itself. And common practice in jurisdictions for managing construction fees cash flows and deliver project on time and within budget. And pertained is so the Financial Plan mentioned earlier is advanced we can consider it simple low in light of that related work. Thank you that is helpful. Thank you. Thank you director shaw. Other directors . I did have a question. I was homing you could elaborate on recommendation 5 i did noted totally understand it. And so hoping you could explain that the thinking is behind that. Sure. Actually it is simple thank you for the question directors. Option 5 and 6 are the same approaches. The only difference is that in option 5 splitting the system in 2 separate contracts in option 6 it is one cmgc contract the reasons why. Sorry. I mean recommendation 5 not options recommendation and the list. Okay. Can we bring up the second third to last slide. The upon ends of agsz i think the third to last slide. There we go number 5. Is that the one you are referring to. Yes. Great. So so i think this kinds of harkens back to the earlier study we were considering option 10 we have a splay private entity it provide maintenance during a period following construction. And as United States saw in todays presentation we are recommending it has been a carved out of todays recommendation so ip mtmented it make sure that we acknowledged that the omr the Operation Maintenance and rehab scope be conducted separate from the progressive design build or contractors. Thats i reference to the option 10 considered earlier. And obviously, we knowledge that the Operation Maintenance scope responsibility the arc line with train operator rather than an entity for a period of time i understanding this as a separate, privately held contract. That is helpful to understand. Thank you. Other questions . Put slide 4 up on for example. In this slide here the graphic may suggest that tjpa is responsible for the the w and general civil the tunnel. The operators may be responsible for core systems and track work and the agreement that needs to be worked out influence station fit out and supporting system. Am i reading this correct low. I think so hai like to add the scope column represent the Contract Packaging leaderships. So it is really intended illustrate the construction work that thes various contractors will bid on. And that was part of the study. How do you apply a delivery method to the scope elements. The way to look at it is hayou just out lined that is not really necessarily a part of this presentation but, yes. The discussion on who takes Asset Management or ownership or responsibility of the various elements is part of the mca conversation. Or the conversation this we are engaged with. And you would expect this the operator would want to maintain control they indicateded so on those systems required for safe operation of transit. What we are still engage in the a conversation on is what happens with the tunnel and the stations and the other noncritical systems required for station operation but in the safe train control that is a separate conversation we are engaged in mca. We will bring the items before the board when the discussions have reached that level of that point. I think they are all connected now and you will of this body of w is all coming in focus between the mca, the delivery strategy and it is contracting and things like that and funding. So it is all coming to together. At a point in time in the future. Um im supportive of practicive design built in this situation. I have done progressive design build. And in the the shortcomings is the develop approximate this case we have a very defined scope of work to get from a to b and defined way to get there. It it is in the like saying we want to add 5 more miles of tunnel or 10 stories to the building the failing with budget and schedule has been in my responsibles the owner adding scope of work. And in this case i think we are all committed to making sure we get from point arc to b in the most effective way possible. This is all in alignment with the project specifics in this case. Directorses other questions or thoughts. Any Public Comment nila of this item. Why no members of public. The looking to comment on this item. Jason, would you confirm. Confirmed. Great. And adam and alfonso and jesse you are looking from approval from the board to proceed in this direction. ; is that correct.

Adam i think as you reported we are going to give the board a gift of a thursday morning in august. You can have that day to yourself at least that morning and we will see you at our next meeting in september which is scheduled for September September 8. So everyone, have a great sum and great month and a half until we see you in september there is a lot of work to happen in between as we get right before the game starts, if im still on the field, i look around, and i just take a deep breath because it is so exciting and magical, not knowing what the season holds is very, very exciting. It was fastpaced, stressful, but the good kind of stressful, high energy. There was a crowd to entertain, it was overwhelming in a good way, and i really, really enjoyed it. I continued working for the grizzlies for the 20122013 season, and out of happenstance, the same job opened up for the San Francisco giants. I applied, not knowing if i would get it, but i would kick myself if i didnt apply. I was so nervous, i never lived anywhere outside of fridays fridays fresno, and i got an interview. And then, i got a second interview, and i got more nervous because know the thought of leaving fresno and my family and friends was scary, but this opportunity was on the other side. But i had to try, and lo and behold, i got the job, and my first day was january 14, 2014. Every game day was a puzzle, and i have to figure out how to put the pieces together. I have two features that are 30 seconds long or a minute and a 30 feature. Its fun to put that al together and then lay that out in a way that is entertaining for the fans. A lucky seat there and there, and then, some lucky games that include players. And then ill talk to lucille, can you take the shirt gun to the bleachers. I just organize it from top to bottom, and its just fun for me. Something, we dont know how its going to go, and it can be a huge hit, but youve got to try it. Or if it fails, you just wont do it again. Or you tweak it. When that all pans out, you go oh, we did that. We did that as a team. I have a great team. We all gel well together. It keeps the show going. The fans are here to see the teams, but also to be entertained, and thats our job. I have wonderful female role models that i look up to here at the giants, and theyve been great mentors for me, so i aspire to be like them one day. Renelle is the best. Shes all about women in the workforce, shes always in our corner. [applause] i enjoy how progressive the giants are. We have had the longer running until they secure day. Weve been doing lgbt night longer than most teams. I enjoy that i work for an organization who supports that and is all inclusive. That means a lot to me, and i wouldnt have it any other way. I wasnt sure i was going to get this job, but i went for it, and i got it, and my first season, we won a world series even if we hadnt have won or gone all the way, i still would have learned. Ive grown more in the past four years professionally than i think ive grown in my entire adult life, so its been eye opening and a wonderful learning good afternoon everyone and thank you so much for the warm welcome for the next District Attorney for San Francisco brooke jenkins. [applause] you know, going through this process really reminded me of just how resilient we are as a city. When i think about what weve been through over the years, whether its earthquakes, a global pandemic, i put the challenges of what
