Four, interim space activation plan. So, this planning effort was undertaken in partnership with one Treasure Island and Treasure IslandCommunity Development, and i like to invite Sherry Williams to provide a little more background and context. Good morning, Sherry Williams. I like to briefly acknowledge director tsen and richardtion for your incredible leader 147 ship in the project and how involved you are and how fortunate we are to have directors like you. I just wanted to say that publicly because im feeling it. Okay, soas a background to this, you both were involved with isthe, but you know Treasure Island represents this Incredible Opportunity to build a successful mixed Income Community where everybody regardless of income has a sense of belongingism a few years ago we commissioned reports on mixed income communities. One from a retail perspective and one from a Community Facility perfective. I should say when i say we, i mean one Treasure Island, Treasure IslandDevelopment Authority and Treasure IslandDevelopment Group. All three of the entities working on the Development Plan have seen this as a very important aspect of the plan. How do we really create a community where arfbd everybody has a sense of belonging . There are many efforts across the countsry to do this with mixed results and we want to be successful so we have been very intentional. One of the major recommendations was to build a uniform aspirational statement for the island which we have just gone through that process. Now we are looking at new parks coming online, new open space, new areas for retail, thousands of new residents moving to the island. It isnt the full buildout of had plan but there will be a lot more space to activate, a lot more people who need different kinds of services so how do we do that and from a equity lens . We, again, one Treasure Island, tida and tipd, we put together a rfp with erica and bay area economics to develop a interim active space plan until the full buildout, but what does it look like for the next 3 to 5 years . What activities can we do to support the residents . How do we actually realize those goals, and so david shiver and fall penningjure are here from bay area economics to present the plan to you. I will make a caveat, this is just the firstthis is the report being presented. We have to come in and develop our next action steps and pritorize the next steps how we implement it, so we look forward to your comments and feedback, and i thinki think i covered it. Did i miss anything, bob . Okay. Then i will bring up paul and david. Thank you. Thank you. My name is david, principle with ba urban economics and we probably have more slides then time so apologize in advance. Well go through them and stop me if you have questions or need clarifications. Ill start outsherry has done a good job introducing the project to you. A little bit about us. We are a firm that is a lot of Public Private partnerships, Economic Development, Community Revitalization strategies, based over on the east side of the island in berkeley and partners with indiscernible and new york base planning and placemaking firm that worked with the island Developer Group. The scope as sherry mentioned really was taking the prior work and advancing it forward into a interim activation plan. Our focus is on what do you do in the five year period after phase one is complete and around 2025, 2026, and after that . Had we are kind of targeting this plan really coming online right as some of the parks are completed up until around 2030, so that is the time period we are thinking about and that gives about a year and a half to start planning for implementation. What we did is we looked at all the sites that are coming online, and existing. We talked to stakeholders that are on the island. Business owners. Non profits that are active doing programming, and then also looked at case studies boat at retail activation and also Equity Community developments looking at what kind of programs could be implemental to complement the retail and Community Facilities. So, we prepared a action plan and there is a full report that is available. What you are seeing here is a summary, and it comprised of three parts. Retail, special events and Community Facilities. On the retail side, we started looking at trends. Looking at how the interinate and ecommerce is impacted sticks and bricks retail, and how there is shift to food and beverage retailing and a contraction of your typical retail formats. We noted in the San Francisco a lot of the neighborhood retail districts are doing better then obviously downtown and the city is a ubiously looking how to program and activate downtown and the port is looking at athivating the embarcadero. We looked another trnd we had to address is really oo downsizing of space demands, food and beverage and retail. Looking at smaller spaces, more flexible format. With all that in mind, we asked ourselves, what kind of retail could be supported on Treasure Island. There will be a growth in population of course with phase 1 completed, about 17 hundred households and about 4200 residents at that time. The question is, how does that match up with the new retail coming online . There is existing about 21 thousand square foot of retail space on Treasure Island that is currently operating, but by the end of phase 1 completion you will add around 16 thousand more square feet. When you look at the spending of the existing and new residents combined, youll have substantial amount, around 65 million of new spending, but a lot of will be groceries and food away at home. About 60 percent. And when you look at what is being sold online, food and beverage and also groceries tends to be the least ordered online basically. That is changing with some of the Online Shopping services at Grocery Stores. So, we made a estimate of specifically what retail might be supported by the residents themselves and this slide suggests obviously groceries, food and beverage, little bit of personal services would be supportable with small quantities of square feet. So, the retail opportunities looking at restaurants, we think there is room for another smaller Grocery Store that could offer alcohol because the Current Island cove market doesnt sell alcohol, and that is a gap. Looking at micro businesses. Maybe artison small scale good producers and outdoor wellness and sports kind of retail. This just summarizes the isue. What we found is there is really a gap. The new residents themselves wont be able to support all the new retail coming online. Obviously as it builds out, that will change, but now we got this interim period and so we asked ourselves, how can we bridge that gap . How can you create additional demand in Economic Opportunities to fill that retail that is coming online in phase one . That lead to our retail strategy, which is really retaining your existing restaurants and market, and leave them in place, because until the parcel is developed, we are looking at two things. One, a focused node, which will be a Treasure Island road and clipper cove way and i think tradewinds is the new road coming in. All around building one and the Ferry Terminal, because that will be done from a construction point of view. There will be new parks on either side of it, and you have indiscernible that could be activated so it represents a area within a quarter mile walk from the Ferry Terminal itself. We also suggest really creating a spot at the island cove market. Really to improve the quality of place for existing residents, by looking at some refreshing of the paint on the exterior, adding planters, outdoor tables for eating, because they do prepare food in the back and having bike racks so there is a local hang out spot as well. The potential programming as i mentioned, we thought a second grocery would be supportable cht this might be higher end then island covel market so you cover a broad range of grocery and shopping needs and there is a lot of local examples who could occupy a smaller specialty grocer. To support your existing businesses, we are really looking at way finding and signage is key. Really starting at the Ferry Terminal with really graphically rich ti branded signage consistent with yor sign master plan. Example in the presidio which they implemented over the years to help people navigate, because it is difficult, especially with the construction. Construction work. And then continuing the current efforts of tida to cross market the existing restaurants that all have special event spaces as well. Ill let paul talk about the equity side how to create Economic Opportunity with this program. Good morning. So, as sherry said, equity and focus on social equity is baked into the approach for the interim space including activating interim retail uses. With retail we start with how we can create food goods and services for local residents through the activation strategy that would be affordable, accessible and appropriate and we looked to examples in San Francisco such as those set up by food wise. Farmerers market, community marketing, pop up installations that are once a week or biweekly or once a month to provide goods or subss on a interim basis not available on the island and would be affordable to local residents and identified potential partners implementation partners andFunding Partners to support that part of the strategy. This is example of one of the similar Community Markets in San Francisco. The Mission Community market that is supported by funding from the stuffkey foundation from kaiser and buy right and others. We also looked at opportunities through the retail strategy to support workforce training efforts for residents in food and related service sectors. Food service and related occupations are key growth sectors in San Francisco, and there have been previous examples on the island of Occupational Training and workforce training in the sector that have worked well and so another part of the interim space activation strategy is identify opportunities to create new workforce training opportunities in partnership with the city and with potentialfunders like the San Francisco foundation or others that have funded similar types of workforce training actibties, including in this sector in the past. Finally, the third pillar of the equity strategy related to retail is how can we support the creation of small and micro businesses that are small micro business retailers founded by residents on the island with the support of oti, with the support of other Public Sector and private sector agencies and how we create a pilot micro Business Program or incubator for local entrepreneurs in the retail space. We have details about how to do that as part of a action materic in the strategy as the third pillar around equity for the interim space activation strategy and we can take questions on that if you have any. David. The locationsvery key. Where would this stuff go . You can see we have two key locations. One is at the main what we call retail node near building one and the other near the Current Location of the island cove market, which we have renamed the spot. This is where the small and micro business retailers would be located. David will talk about special events. Yep. The second area of the action plan revolves around special events and we just have a few slides summarizing some of the Background Information on travel because special events is about both People Living in the bay area and coming into the bay area to see our region. As you can see and as you probably know, visitation is rebounding since the sharp dropoff due to covid. About half of the visitors are coming from the bay area itself, which is a really good strong base of visitation for Treasure Island. The sf travel, the surveys they are estimating each visiting party spends about 185 a day on food and beverage and retail, which is pretty strong number to support visitation and spending at Treasure Island. How many visitors would it take to support retail and small micro businesses we want to establish at the island, and we are guesstimating about 500 thousand, 550 thousand visitors would be needed annually for this interim plan to help support retail and the Economic Development programming. So, how do you do that . Well, if you kind of look at all the new venues coming online, both the existing ones in building one and restaurants as well as the new parks coming online and rehab of the chapel, those will not moveit went get you to 500 thousand visitors. Might get 125 thousand we are guessing utilizing a traditional special events wedding and celebrations, corporate reteats and the like, so we are encouraging really for all three of the partners on the island working together to look at programming as opposed to special events, or in addition to special events. What do we mean by programming . It is really finding a corporate partner of which you have many to choose from regionally in the bay area, and setting up a underwritten subsidized program and there is many different types of programs that you could operate. One example what im talking about is at the chase center. You have Kaiser Permanente doing thrive city. It is finding that kind of partner to implement a regularly scheduled reliable program that would attract to existing residents and new businesses and San Francisco bay area visitors. So, specifically there is already a good inventory of venues for special events. Your existing restaurants all catered to parties wanting to do celebration jz weddings and receptions. Building one obviously is a fantastic venue. You have coming online now in the next couple years all the new parks, city side, which is pretty big, the cultural park on both sides of the chapel, the chapel itself to be a renovated shell, and you have a smaller park marina plaza behind building one and the [applause]y plaza in front of building one and Ferry Terminal all creating green spaces and quarter 10 which comes online as a facility and hilltop park. You have fantastic views up there, but it could be pretty windy, but it is venue for smaller events. In addition there is a hotel site right next to city side park and cultural park and the chapel that the Developer Group thinks is not going to be marketed and built any time soon as a hotel. You can imagine why, it is a weak sector now and they think that could be offered as a interim location for broader larger scale event programming as we are thinking about it. That site is large. It has very flexible and what you can do, and it wouldntit could be permanent in the sense if you did something in front of building one you might have to accommodate week day parking for the tenants that rent building one. This would allow you to have facilities more permanent on a interim basis without having to disrupt other operations on the island. And it could help move the visitation needle by a whole variety of ideas. Treasure island, the tida itself is in the past done large scale events. Music events, those kind of things can be reconsidered and maybe brought back with a corporate partner helping underwrite the expense but it isnt limited to what you have done in the past. There are new concepts like night markets, art exhibits, things like that that could be happening on the lot and this shows concepts and there are many of them and there are many steps to help identify partners, see what you mutually would be interested in underwriting. We found in talking to the stakeholders and thinking through how visitation works, you really need some kind of visible Welcome Center or Visitor Center and the museum offeredthey are there, they are in building one, they could help serve that and are a potential partner to talk about that. But that would be a key thing also to help orient and have people learn about the history of the island and all the dimensions. The Equity Program for special events i
