Analysis and the framework that informs that and then we will conclude with a few words from the warriors who would like to talk a little bit about what this project really means for the city and for the port, and finally we willing asking to you extend some of the deadlines in the exclusive negotiating agreement to allow us to negotiate a comprehensive term sheet which we hope to bring to you by april of next year so with that as mentioned there was a Advisory Committee formed for the port and from that committee there are three tracks of workshops that have begun or soon to begin. We are doing transportation workshops to talk about challenges in the south beach, mission bay neighborhood, some of which are due to existing conditions and ones that are potentially created by the additional activity here. We are moving forward with neighborhood quality of Life Workshops to look at ways in which a permanent funding stream and Free Standing entity can be created to work with neighbors, mer
Another Advisory Group that was created that recommended a plan to the Port Commission at the time. The Port Commission in 1997 approved that plan and upon approving the plan then the port also then went to work with the Planning Commission and the board of supervisors and mb dc to outline the policies appropriate for the waterfront with the citys planned policies for the waterfront and to align the various jurisdictions and to try to give careful and consistent focus what should be happening along that waterfront. As i mentioned there are mixed use Development Opportunities that are identified in the land use plan, and the bryant street opportunity area is one of those within the south beach area consisting of pier 3032 and sea wall lot 330. During the plan process it was always seen as an opportunity to create these mix use Maritime Developments that brought new opportunities for expansion and improvement of maritime uses with a mix of uses that would help to finance the bill taking
Will walk you through our proposals for the development. Ae com is a Global Engineering and Architecture Firm in San Francisco and here for years and working in collaboration with others for this project. Bill crocket is the head of the practice and leading the architectural effort for the project. Some of you maybe wondering what the name snow hitter mean. Its the name of a mountain in norway and craig dikeus has named the firm after this mountain. I believe he climbs it every summer. He sends his apologies and isnt climbing this week and couldnt make this presentation but will be here in the future and they do really beautiful and highly regarded cultural and arts performing venues amongst other types of buildings, so when we started the project our clients, the warriors, challenged snow hitter and ourselves to think how we could connect the city to the water and do that in an inspiring way that could create an iconic destination for San Francisco so we took inspiration from craigs w
Got input as well and on the website you will see pages of Community Input we managed and structured and categorized it and its shaping this assessment for us. But i dont want to down play how important it was to play with the americas cup. We piloted and tried our hand at new things and erks lie and a project and carried hundreds of people and that is a Pilot Project that could have a legacy. We have the Bike Sharing Program this spring and we work with the companies to do a proxy Bike Sharing Program and get it place for the americas cup and Valet Parking and giving pedestrians real time estimates how long it goes from point a, say the ballpark to the Ferry Building and helping visitors orient themselves around the waterfront and this is a advantage that we have piloted and try our hand at some solutions. We had a meeting already and we wanted to make sure everybody understood the big picture. What we did before the roll your she was up part of the workshop we outlined what the asses
About this area and the general responsibility in fixing transportation solutions, but the next steps and were very much at the beginning of the assessment, are the workshops on december 4. One comment we heard loud and clear give us land use information to match the transportation information so we have maps that will be layered on top of the Transportation Networks so we can see where people are living and where the networks need to go and we had an important comment what are the goals and objectives of the assessment . Its one thing to have engineers and its another that we understand quality of life and what makes San Francisco successful . Pedestrian first and transportation priority and the land use plans and those are things that we would incorporate and taking the inventory of all the goals and objectives and making sure they speak to this area and if need be refined for the outcomes. If we have the goals and networks and the networks and understanding when they come online one
