As you know, we have talked in the past we have been working with the Development Partner to redesign Candlestick Point. We are happy and excited to share with you what we have come up with. I want to extend my appreciation to the team and ocii led by lila and sally and aaron and the extended team working with this. There are so many of them i wont name, but the few take aways is that as a result of them moving away to date the developer is doing infrastructure work. What is proposed is reduction every tail of the retail space. We are converting some of the residential units. We are able to advance some of those. Over 400 will be advanced. The cpo2 reviewed did not have housing on the outfield now we propose to increase 480 units. We are removing the tower and making adjustments to height, making changes Top Community facility space. Reduction in the overall Retail Program in Candlestick Point and neighborhood changes which the team will be presenting on. I do want to know what this entails is extensive changes to major documents in phase one, infrastructure plan and design for development. Without giving or going over too much we will have someone from five point present and lila will come at the end for an overview. Both teams will be present to respond to questions. I want to thank the team for the extensive work. It has taken a long time to come here. What we have done differently is Community Engagement reflected today. I will turn it over to terries from five point. Thank you for your time this afternoon. I am terries breck key, senior r directoseniordirector of planni. I am presents proposed amendments to the major phase application and cor anchor resp korresponding changes to the schedule of performance. Before we start here, i will go over agenda for this afternoon which is really to describe our purpose. What our vision is for this community. Why are we here . What do we want to achieve . Lets begin there. We will then comp some background information, particularly for those in the community who may not be as familiar with the project as you are, and then we will be talking about the changes themselves and, of course, next steps. So first a bit of orientation. This was an ariel. It is a little dated taken in 2016. I thought it was a good example of progress made to date. What you see on the aerial itself is that the stadium is taken down. You can see on the edges o on te north edge and on this edge here along what is going to be harney way west. What is necessary to compact sochsochithesoils. In the tiny corner which is better on the printed version. You can see beginning to take shape what we have 337 families now moved in to homes in Alice Griffith. We are very pleased about that. Lets talk a moment about our first. First it is to create an economic engine for this community. We have talked for a number of years about the fact that the navy has gone away and Jobs Associated with the navy since it closed in 1974 need to come alive again in this community. We need that. We have created a plan that creates the same number of jobs as the prior plan. We have also then with this new plan expanded the range of Job Opportunities for a greater number of talent and education in the community, people can live and work within the bayview itself. The next job building housing. Our job is to build more housing sooner. We have been advancing more and more housing in our Development Plans over time, and in fact have done that more recently in some of the Schematic Design approvals where we have been making additions to what was previously planned for these sites. We have very happy about that. There are a couple things to point out for you that are important. One is that in this first major phase of development, 39 of all the hissing units are af the Housing Units are affordable Housing Units. We also have another important fact, which is within the project as a total, when you consider candlestick and shipyard together and look at all of the Affordable Housing proposed, which is a total of 3,345 units, of that you have over half is at a 60 a. M. I. Or below. We are really. I think that is important that is something that is important to the community itself. Now, you had begun to jump start this new plan when a year ago you made a recommendation to the board of supervisors to approve some amendments to the reDevelopment Plans, and those amendments allow for greater flexibility. They allow for the conversion of uses as we are proposing today, conversion every tail to office afof the retail to office. And to transfe transfer the offm ship yard to candlestick. The plans include that transfer of development. Our overall plan for success is jobs, housing, and other important benefits to the community such as Community Benefits program, of course. Then we have transit and other elements that are going to remain in place as always proposed. Similarly with parks and open space. Another important matter to the community is child care. Now, under this current plan we are required as a developer to contribute to a Child Care Fund or to establish child care on site. We are going to prioritize establishing child care on site. We do believe it is an important element of this project. It is tied to the office and hotel Square Footages. To provide you with just a little bit of background here, again, some of this is for those who may be viewing on television and out in the audience. We have our plan for candlestick is developed in three major phases. One is shown in tan. Green is two. In the yellow is major phase three. Within major phase one there, is a lot of work done to date. You have seen a number of blocks with housing and retail at the ground floor that have received your approval for Schematic Designs. We are very happy about that status. As i mentioned earlier, what is identified cpo1, that is where the housing for the 337 families in Alice Griffith is. As i mentioned, the Community Benefits program remains. All of the Community Benefits associated with the plan since we initially signed our disposition and Development Agreement remain. That includes things like education, scholarships, job training, Community Wellness. All of that remains intact. What also remains intact is our hiring goals. Our goal is to use good faith efforts to extend hiring for both construction as well as permanent jobs. First to the bayview residents and then to the greater San Francisco. So that is our goal, that is the goal we have been working towards to date on the work that we have done to date, and that is our commitment into the future. Proposed changes. The quick summary of the proposed changes that i will get into in detail in a moment is more housing and more office. We have reduced the amount every tail, but what we have done is right sized retail. Retail is critical to forming a community. It is necessary to get services to go to the drugstore and shopping and dining in your neighborhood so that is why retail remains. Retail in a large mall as our partner proposed is not a good solution in todays time because of the direction in moving towards more ecommerce as well as people spending money on travel and just personal Life Wellness activities. This shows the comparison. On the left the last major phase was approved in march 2016. To left is the plan approved and indicated in the pink is the regional retail mall. It was a mixed use community that included residential on thn harney. We think it is important and so that is also continuing into our new project. In the new land use plan, we have a center, the hotel remains and was mentioned earlier, we have added 428 Housing Units. Among those are 104 senior Housing Units at 60 and below a. M. I. This again is by sub phase. You can see the outlines of the boundary of the land use. Cpo1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, all within the first major phase. Can you point out where the Film Art Center is in. Use the little arrow, the arrow on the computer. Can someone hel help her . We are a little older on this side of the table trying to figure out the technical aspects of it. It is the pink and blue. The blue at that corner is to represent is center. There will be ground floor retail. That is why it is pink. Do you want me to go this way . No, i see it. All right. Thank you. So here is the comparison, summary slide what we talked to. Is major message we converted retail to profile more office. We are going to continue to provide Community Facilities. These are Spaces Available to local businesses and so we are hoping to draw local businesses in. You may have a business somewhere on third and decide it is a great time to expand, i want to expand into candlestick. Now, i am drilling down into the detail. On Candlestick Point, we sometimes refer to it as you have an outfield and infield. We are going back to the giants days. I will go through the Development Program according to the outfield and infield. In the outfield the office i have spoken of is depicted in blue. Those are the blue buildings, and they are backed up along walker. In the yellow and orange in the outfield is where we have housing and in the red that is meant to depict something such as market hall food court, that kind every tail space. There is also some retail at the ground floor of the residential buildings. On the infield is where we have the Film Art Center in the bright blue and hotel in the yellow and then, of course, the Senior Housing in brown and other housing shown in yellow. Design for development updates. So because we have a new plan, it is important that the design for this new plan be consistent with design character that we want for candlestick so we have added some new standards to our design for development guidelines. We have maximum building dimensions and coverage described to ensure the balance of urban character and open spaces. In addition, there are certain standards that have been added for design articulation. Facade treatments a number of ways to break down the building massing. You can step back buildings, use certain treatments that articulate and breakdown building mass so there is more standard as it relates to doing just that. The other important standard is the standard for activation. It is important for us at the ground floor to have uses that are engaging as the pedestrians move through the site. The primary change on the height is along walker drive. I will review these individually with you. On the left you can see the approved heights from 2016. The orange depicts 65 feet. You will note the front edges in 2016 along harney shows a height of 80 feet. Then 120 feet that has always been for the Film Art Center. In the future to accommodate the new building we are increasing increase in the height along walker to 120 feet to allow more housing. We are asking for an allowance to increase interior as well as edges to this site to 85 feet. At the edges along harney they comcomment the 80 feet on on thr sight. We have film art at 120 and then they go down and rise at Arelious Walker. I will show that in context. It may sound like a big move to move to 120foot. In this particular context it is less so and that is because we have bayview hill behind us. The highest point of bayview hill is 425 feet. Then the highest point of the building elevation, the highest elevation for the Building Height is more like 231. We have added this last little dot, dot, dot at the bottom to show you the sea level. When you look in the context, i think we have done a pretty good job of making this work in the context of the environment and bayview hill. We are not wanting to interfere with anyones views from bayview hill. Community facilities comparison. Our Community Facilities obligation is 7. 5 of all retail. I mention Community Facilities earlier so we are required to do 7. 5 . Retail the amount every tail has been reduced. Naturally the amount of Community Facility space has been reduced, too. At the same time we still have Community Facility spaces lining our blocks alons an along harne. You can see where the Community Spaces are noted and how much Square Footage is on each one of these blocks. An important Community Facility, the highlight is the International African marketplace. We have worked with the cac to have an International African marketplace, and she liked the idea of being right across from wedge park. That is what we did. I will show you the endings for the kind of place we expect to build in the future. This is a view from Arelious Walker into the plaza area. As you enter from the drive you can see to the plaza where we have a one acre open space to be used for festivals, concerts, any number of things. This is the primary entrance in from the community. This entrance is at the cor corr of earl and ingerson or montana clark drive. The interior is montana clark drive so as you cross the street that is the major gateway to the project. On the right is the food hall i mentioned. On the left is the hotel. Far in the distance you can see the open spaces. The Film Art Center. We think it is an elegant civic building for this community, and we have invested a great deal of time and effort and energy designing this because we do feel that a major civic building is important to the community, to have something that stands out as a signature kind of development space. Now, the next thing i want to talk with you about is some changes to the sub phase boundary for cpo5 and changes within the Alice Griffith neighborhood. One of the things we have done is that we have moved a Community Lot from the corner of ingerson and harn nein the middle of the retail and we moved that to this location in Alice Griffith where we think it can more appropriately Serve Community needs. We are retaining a small piece of Community Use on the site i just mentioned at the corner of ingerson and walker for the fair station. We are wanting to make sure Community Types of uses find a home in this plan. Now, this slide perhaps depicts something that we also think and have mentioned earlier is very important to the community. The child care is the site that operates in true hope church. They currently use the outdoor areas that are included within our Development Plans for a playground. They desperately want to playground to remain. What we did in consiltation with ocii and others, we agreed to leave that block open to retain the playground use, and we swapped out, so to speak, the Development Program for that unit as shown on the left side. It is block 8, if that helps for orientation. Block 8 is now open. The development that had been assigned to that site is now on block 15. The market rate on block 15
