Item 1 is an ordinance authorizing the recreation and Park Department regarding the funding and stewardship of a new park on the francisco reservoir site located between hyde and larkin street and south of bay street. Thank you madam clerk. For the last five years i have been working with the neighbors and and recreation and park to turn this into a park, a project we voted on a year and a half ago and we have been working with the Francisco Park conservancy and made up of the four largest neighborhood groups in the area. The neighborhood stepped up and the project wouldnt be possible without their partnership and support. They have helped build a broad group of support of over 40 organizations that have been involved in the effort. They have commitments for the funding to maintain run the park in perpetuity and with their help we can turn this dilapidated site of concrete and fence to a area that the city can enjoy everyday. The puc agreed to turn jurisdiction over to the rec and Park Department. In the ordinance are four components in the next milestone in this process to build this park at the site of the old francisco reservoir and authorizes parking on the site and accept an inkind grant for Construction Services and annual grants from the Francisco Park conservancy and for the future maintenance of the park. It authorizes rec and park to accept and expend grants from the Francisco Park conservancy in improvements in the new park and amends to be listed as a park and no alcoholic beverages can be consumed the rec and park will maintain and operate the new parker will start. The project of the conservancy will administer and over see the design and construction and maintenance and operations of the park. Next steps we will hold a Public Outreach meetings for the proposed design of the park. I look forward to being there hopefully at all meetings and start the construction capital and for park and Rec Commission for approval. Colleagues this has been once in a lifetime opportunity that presented its in San Francisco. As the population grows our need for open space continues to grow and we have a turn to turn this concrete and fence site into a place for residents and tourists to enjoy and i want to thank everyone that are involved.

I guess i want to echo supervisor farrells words in really thanking the Francisco Park conservancy for their hard work, advocacy and stewardship to take the steps were taking to transform this site into a beautiful park for all san franciscans, so on june 16 the parks and Recreation Commission voted to recommend that the board take actions were seeking today which is approve the agreement between the Francisco Park conservancy and the department, to accept the inkind grants for design and construction of the park, cash grant for Park Maintenance and grants for future park improvements and also to amend the park code to add the park to the list of parks with no alcohol can be consumed just for background the francisco reservoir is located between hyde and larkin street south of bay street and the site dates back to the 1860s when it was used for a reservoir for San Francisco and closed in the 1940s when the near by lombard reservoir opened. Sis reservoir is one of five site thats department has acquired or in the process of a quiring in order to continue the mission to preserve open space for all san franciscans. Two years ago after years of advocacy by Community Groups the departmented entered into a mou with the Public Utilities commission to acquire the property with immediate jurisdiction over 12 years. As part of the process the group that became the ftc committed to funding of maintenance of the new park and this agreement say formalization of that commitment so preliminary development of the site is in process already. The fpc has developed a preliminary baseline and have a design team under contract. Rec and park and fpc has done preliminary stsd of the site and the next step as supervisor farrell mention
