Supervisor fewer yes, ill be very brief. Supervisor yee, ill be very happy to work with you on more aggressive tactics. And also, i did not hear from oewd that icon staptly hear from my Small Businesses is that they are having a harder and harder time getting employees to work in their stores. Many of our businesses have wanted signs, and the retension rate is abysmal. They cant keep people working in their Small Businesses because they cant compete with the wages, and quite frankly people arent willing to come in two hours to a job that pays 15 an hour, so id like that addressed at our next hearing, also. Thank you. Thank you very much. So much to say. I will just concur with my colleagues, and at this time i think i heard that we would like to continue items 1 actually, lets just continue item 1 to the call of the chair, and then, item 2, let ease file that one, if thats okay. Okay. Well do that, supervisor kim, without objection, okay . Those motions are passed with supervisor safai being absent. Thank you. Can you, mr. Clerk, call items 4 through 6 together, please. Clerk yes. Id just like to note that we no longer have a quorum of the board of supervisors, and we are requeening asconvening as agreement between the port and china basin llc with a base rent of 55,416,000 permonth from april through september and 2,916 from october through march in direction of increasing parking demand by ballpark patron. Item 5, add the mission rock district the marginal whafsh between pier 48 and pier 50 and mission rock street to the south and third street to the west. Item number 6, resolution affirming the Planning Departments certification of filing an Environmental Impact report and adopting environmental findings under the California Environmental quality act. Thank you very much and thank you all for your patience on this item. Im going to first turn it over to supervisor kim to speak on this item since it is your area. Supervisor kim thank you so much, chair tang. This is a long time in the making, but the giants and i first really started discussing in mid2015 on this project, to 2. 5 years later, its great to have the project and city sponsor in the room. This project is something that i am really proud of in terms of working with the project sponsor because it was the very first project to commit to hitting 40 affordable and miding income housing, and it is probably one of the fee projects outside of any type of Redevelopment Area plan that is committing to such high levels of middle income housing, something which we as a city have not really done before. I have to say when i first got on the board of supervisors, i never thought i would fight for housing for families that made between 80 and 150,000 peryear, but thats really where we are in San Francisco, which is people that make very good money and that work as nurses and teachers and entry level workers and even tech workers cant afford to live in San Francisco anymore, so i just want to thank the giants for hitting it out of the ballpark and really being a team that is for San Francisco by ensuring that we are building for san franciscans and that will contribute tremendously to the city. I also want to recognize that 2. 5 years later, local 2 united here, united educators of San Francisco, the Community Council housing organizations, toddco, former mayor art agnos, our former democratic chair, john burton, there were so many people who are engaged in this process to get to the project that is before us today. I wish we could have had this project come to us sooner, but there are always so many things involved in something this complex and big, so im really just happy that were here today. This is really, as far as i know, the largest, i would call Surplus Property public Surplus Property that we have here available in San Francisco, about 28 acres. And you know for me, it was incredible important that the city as a partner to this project because it was built on public land that we ensure that this was a project that meets the needs of our city, whether it was the eight acres of open spaces and parks to again the 40 of Affordable Housing to a mix of Office Retail and housing, i just think that this is the right project for this neighborhood. And its also great to have a project where the neighborhood supports the upzoning and building and density in their back yard. Finally, i just want to recognize, i do have a number of amendments that ill be making after the presentation, but i also want to acknowledge that given the feedback that weve heard from the public and its really just amazing how time changes from year to year, that we want to make sure that we maximize the housing on this project. cause 40 is great whether theres a lot of Housing Units that are being built. I know that there were certain parcels that were zoned initially for residential or hotel, and i just want to thank the giants for working with us and my office to ensure that all the residential parcels will be solely residential, and that weve moved the hotel option purpose to the commercial sites inkraed. And we hea instead. We heard from our housing ad covats that covats advocates, so we have a number of presenters today, so i just want to recognize them in the order that theyll be speaking in. We have phil william son from the port who will be presenting, and matt snyder, Senior Department of planning, along with matt vander water. I know that we have a number of other stakeholders that are here today that will be speaking in Public Comment, but i just want to acknowledge the port, of course for your work, because this is on port property, our city attorneys office, public works, mohck, sfmta, and of course our ballpark Transportation Coordination Committee and just the entire team at the giants. So i believe folks are speaking in the order that i presented, but ive called up all the names, so really in any order that youd like to come up. Thank you, supervisor. Madam chair, its an honor and pleasure to be here before you today for this project. As supervisor mentioned, its been many years in the making, and we are very, very proud of it, and youll hear that today in our presentations. And we seek your recommendation today for the items on the calendar, items 4, 5, and 6, and i will be giving a brief overview of the project and touching on some highlights, and then i will be passing it onto jack behr to go into it a little bit more details. Some of the mission rock site to give context to the area. I think [ inaudible ] to fruition and add the vitality and vibrancy that weve been working on for the last 11 years. And speaking of that timeline, you can see on this slide that we have been working for a while together. We appreciate the boards cooperation and assistance and advisement over the years, we started with a Community Outreach program over ten years ago, and from the beginning, this praj has benefited from the community i didnt know put and evolved and become a better prong over time with that input. The team has been seeking a Collaborative Team work in the project. Both the port and the developer, working with other city agencies has mentioned, and with the community from the Central Waterfront advisory graep, cwgroup, cwag, to the various other groups, as well. So this is the site today, and then moving forward, the build out, you can see the parks that we talked about, the eight acres, the commercial and office space, and the how doesin doesing housing, and youll hear more about that today. In looking at the proposed heights as approved by the recent proposition in 2015. And then listing some of the benefits of the project, the eight acres of parks, the residential units, 40 affordable, and a range of amis as mentioned. Considerable amount of office space to activate the site and provider workers for those units. Retail, we have a very solid retail approach that will activate this site and make it a true neighborhood, and youll hear more about that later. Pier 48 is included in the project, as well. Im sure pier 48 will exist in its current condition and current usage in the next fiesk to ten years until the giants and team working with it can identify a use for the site until thats feasible. Not to leave out parking, the site does involve a structured Parking Facility to replace the surface parking that the site currently provides. Briefly mention phasing. This is a depicktion, starting with phase one on the north side of the project, four of the parcels in phase one would be developed, and importantly, mentioning earlier the Community Outreach. One thing we heard loud and clear was its important to build the open space at the beginning of this project, the substantial open space at china basin park. So phase one does include that china basin park expansion and improvement, so that when phase one comes online, it will have that parka menity to add value to the parcel, of course, but also to add value to the site and to the community. We slipped this slide in. Well be at the gio on wednesday, but we also wanted to give this committee kind of a feel or why the ports doing this project, is that it does promise significant revenues for the ports deep needs up and down the waterfront. On the far left of the slide, you can kind of get an idea of where we are, the revenues we generate from parking. Its been a very successful parking lot, but you can see the different Funding Sources for the project really performs well for the port and the city and therefore the state for the longterm. And my last slide is just to give you an overview of where we are today and the upcoming next steps that we are going to be attempting to complete today. Of course were before you, the land use committee. Wednesday, well be at the gao, and then next thursday, well be at the full board for consideration of the project. So id like to introduce jack behr to continue on with the project. Thank you, phil, and my name is jack behr with the San Francisco jients Development Team. Good afternoon, supervisors. For more than ten years, we have worked in partnership with the port of San Francisco and our neighbors to develop the Land Use Plan before you today, and as a result, its inspired, weaving parks, retail and housing in a way never done before. Our proposal received 74 of the vote citywide and more than 80 of the vote in the surrounding community. We look forward to kratransforg a huge surface parking lot into a collection of parks, an eclectic array of shaps aops a cafes. We will make mission bay a more vibrant place to work and live. The parks are front and center. Our Waterfront Park will be one of the most celebrated open spaces in the city, with views back to the ballpark and the bay bridge. The square in the heart of the project will become the social hub for not only mission rock but also mission bay. The streets are small, intimate, and carefully designed for pedestrians to gather and linger and enjoy a coffee, a meal, an art exhibit, and an overall sense of community. The smart mixture of office and housing allows for a vibrant place during the weekdays, week nights, over the weekend, and of course before and after giants games. The housing is integrated and in every building. With 40 of the units affordable to low and moderate incomes, ceos and empty nesters will live alongside families and youth transitioning out of foster care. A great deal of creative thinking and collaboration went into this plan. From our neighbors who insisted that the Waterfront Park be bold and come first, to our supervisor, jane kim, who insisted that we push hard to achieve higher levels of Affordable Housing. So many smart, engaged, and talented people have helped shape the corrective vision for this important corner of the waterfront, and many of them are here today. Speaking of smart and talented people, id like to introduce my colleague, fran weld, who will drill down on a couple of additional points. Ic concur with that comment. Thank you, supervisor kim, madam chair. Were really happy to be here with you today. We wanted to just touch on some of the design aspects that make mission rock so unique within the city of San Francisco. Jack mentioned the views that we have from the grand park to the center square, and what weve done with our design team, including urban planners, transportation experts, Landscape Architects is to make sure that the streets and the buildings themselves actually help to enhance the design of those parks. Each of our streets will have a slightly different feel, depending on the location within mission rock and particularly at the ground floor. We spent a lot of time looking at the ground floor design, and it was really enlightening to listen to the discussion that preceded around retail because we [ inaudible ] we commissioned a neighborhood study that actually went and looked at the best of streets in San Francisco and all of the great main streets of neighborhoods in the city in order to inform exactly how much retail we should have, how it should be sized and placed within the site. We studied the sizes of the shops from how many different the range of the sizes of the shops, how many were on each block, what is the difference between a corner store with a restaurant and a midblock shop, and we looked to emulate these features that were really consistent across the city in mission rock, which we believe will be the main street of mission bay. We actually went so far as to introduce an entirely different chapter of our controls. Just to preview it, weve had the urban design team and the architecture Landscape TeamWork Together to ensure that those retail spaces on the ground floor of each of our buildings is really working to activate and enhance the public realm along the streets themselves. Well also be looking at a siteside programmisit siteside programming for all of the retail, so well be taking a holistic approach to look at where the restaurants should be, where the markets should be, and also to ensure that these uses will always be present going forward, and the ports been a great partner in thinking about that with respect to the longterm planning of the site. To each time so each time we have a phase up for approval, we will look at the how it fits into the overall merchandising and the neighborhood. Similarly, weve taken a similar approach to the question of environmental sustainablity, and weve had some really unique design come out of this with respect to shared water recycling across the buildings. Youll see here an image that shows the residential buildings contributing to a recycled water system that then goes out to the commercial water buildings on the site. Were also looking at District Energy so that we can share thermal energy loads between the daytime and even between office and residential uses. So again, the theme of looking at the community as a whole and coming up with solutions that are only possible because of the scale of this new neighborhood. Of course, we all know that one of the biggest environmental sustainablity issues facing our city today is the challenge of Climate Change and Sea Level Rise. Weve taken a very conservative approach to this, and were planning to withstand up to 66 implgs of Sea Level Rise. Thats at the highest end of the ranges that are being projected today. We believe that by elevating the site from the center and raising up from the edges of the bay, we can protect the site and create additional amenities and recreational resources. In addition by raising the site, we will actually be able to pile support, all of the infrastructure in the streets themselves. So going down to bed rock to make sure that were making longterm Sustainable Investment in our citys infrastructure for the future. This shows just an example of how you can integrate Sea Level Rise goals with really unique design opportunities, and were adding the recreational component into our flood and fo Stormwater Management gardens, and then along the working waterfront, its allowed us to support the production uses that are long the industrial fronts by having the loading docks double as a Sea Level Rise barrier along the east edge, as well. So just a few highlights of the really, i think innovative and unique design thats gone on at mission rock over the years that were really excited to implement, and more on this is matt snyder from the Planning Department whos been our partner on this for many years. Thank you, fran. Good afternoon. Madam chair, supervisor kim. Im ed snyder of department staff, and today im going to talk about the actual legislation that is before you, the planning code map and southbounding amendments. But before i do and supporting amendments. The over yaul Land Use Program is in sync with surrounding districts, and it is appropriate citywide from a planning perspective. It has a broad range of mixed uses. It both has sizeable amounts of residential units and jobs, and this is particularly important of its location to regional transit, including the caltrain station and several of the muni lines. We wor
