Good afternoon Vice President gilman, commissioners, port staff and members of the public. Im Michael Martin assist nlt director of it port of San Francisco and happy to present you the executive director report on behalf of elaine forbes. Director forbes currently is on leave but we are excited to report she will be back in the office later this month we are all looking forward to. As for today, ill soldier and provide the report on her behalf. First economic recovery. We hosted the contract open house at the pier 27 cruise terminal. Small contractors and business to learn about Technical Support and resources from the office of small business, the u. S. Small business administration, marry weathers and williams and Technical Service providers to partner with city and county of San Francisco. The port of San Francisco is aggressively committed to the principals of the local Business Enterprise ordinance. When possible, the port creates opportunities and incentives for local businesses to access and compete for port contracts. We do this through awarded micro set aside contracts, lowering minimum qualification projects and hosting Small Businesses can network with larger businesses and bid on work. We look forward making sure the small local micro business and contractors partner Going Forward. The port is partnering with local Community Based organizations like food wise to continue investing in supporting Small Businesses through pop ups on the plaza, series of events celebrating Bay Area Black entrepreneurs including businesses and food wise building equity program. March 30, the port supported the second pop up on the plaza of the year, which celebrated black women makers for women history month. The port table at the event celebrated Bay Area Black women makers with food, crafts and community at the embarcadero Ferry Terminal and ferry plaza farmer market. Entry was and will continue to be free and open to the public with food and drinks available for purchase. This program is pride for the port as we strive to deliver equity and economic recovery goals. Another great event on the waterfront was playing host to usns harvey milk. Pier 3332 welcomes nancy pelosi, london breed, richard w my er and croninburg, stuart milk and the crew of the usns harvey milk. One of the best things working for the port is the opportunity to see vessels of all kinds come to birth in the backdrop of the city in the bay. Very few have the emotional connection to San Francisco that the usns harvey milk does. The vessel celebrates the legacy of harvey milk and recalled he worked tirelessly to combat discrimination and hatred directed to gay men and women. Let us find ins separation in harvey milk life of equality and authenticity for everyone everywhere. Turning to the Fisherman Wharf area for recoverry activation and equity update, funding from the port, cbd is working with muralist joey rose to development a mural snauped last week on the blank wall next to 490 jefferson street. Rose mural adorn [indiscernible] the larger then life 25 by 8 foot mural depicts a crabber in San Francisco paying tribute to those in livelihood at risk to protect the health of our ocean and marine life. The creation created carried challenges of its own with rose ponting the piece in sections within a studio throughout the rainy season before installing the panels at Fishermans Wharf for the first time. Every element is Site Specific from the crabber tattoo to placement inliferbing the legendary waterfront. The port is pleased to partner with the community. Moving to commercial doneness crab season ended april 8 which cut short for central and Southern Coast of california. Fish and wildlife ordered the early closure of the season due to increase presence of whales off the coast of california. It is a positive sign to see a thriving whale population, the delayed start to the season fallowed by early closure disrupts the Business Cycle for commercial fishers and processors. Port staff will continue to monitor industry and see if there are ways to support them as we hopefully move to the next and more successful season. Reports were crabbers big and plentiful during the shortened season. Next up is commercial salmon season may through october and look forward to a promising season. Big news for maritime in the southern waterfront. As reported the cruise ship grand princess will arrive april 27. Been working around the clock to manage cargo at pier 80 making birth and shoreside improvement to the [indiscernible] disembark and embark approximately 5 thousand guests. Port staff briefed the port southern advisey committee on the plan frz the call and formal notification sent to adjacent tenants shortly. One more item for maritime, on march 21, the second request for offering for dry dock 2 closed. There were no responses. However, subsequent to the closing of the rfo, staff received interest for purchase of both dry talk 2 and eureka. Staff is working with City Attorney office to identify appropriate action for sole source opportunity to sell the surplus dry docks to owners who refurbish and reuse them and well report back. Also in the southern waterfront and in time for urkt month, new heron head park bird educational component will be up soon. The hundred birds of heron site will soon be available to community at heron park via qr code sticker on the new signage. You will be Rich Resource for anyone interested in the bird migration that takes place every year. Let me bewish you all a happy earth month. Resilience and equity. The draft plan Public Comment period closed march 29. Over 150 comments were submitted to the u. S. Army Corp Engineers and help us work with the army corp to refine the draft plan and make sure it is right for the future of San Francisco. Port staff engaged nearly a thousand people through Community Events walking tours cbo meetings webinars in language workshops and media promotion. The outreach span the portfolio from the southern waterfront to the northern waterfront and adjacent neighborhoods. Port staff also presented the draft plan 10 board and Commission Hearings including presentation to land use and preservation committee. Hard at work inclass sessions on climate adaptation. They presented to John Oconnell and mission high student. The sf fellows developed classroom presentations and resources to educate High School Students about the growing demand for the type of work needed for climate adaptation. The work lays a Strong Foundation for future outreach efforts in guiding youth towards careers in this important field. That concludes my report. Thank you commissioners for your steadfast leadership of our strategic priorities. Thank you mike for your report. Now well take Public Comment on the executive directors report. Does anyone in the room like to make comment, please make your way to the podium. I dont see any Public Comment in the room, so im turning to carmel. Any Public Comment on the line . There are no callers for Public Comment at this time. Public comment is closed. Commissioner harrington. Thank you madam Vice President. Again, thanks for the rorlt. Report. A lot of interesting fun things going on here. The mural i have to get down to see it. I havent seen it yet. On the crab season, i thought i read there was a move to get federal or state support emergency declaration. It may havei thought it was crab season. If there is something we could be helpful at in trying to figure out something with that, i appreciate hearing about that. That would be great. The army Corp Engineers report, it is great you are using that as a catalyst to bring the discussion about career paths to High School Students and all that. I saw in the paper there was one of the comments we received from the folks from this building and i thought it wasit seemed it came across complaining opposed to protecting interest which i felt no problem at all. If i was them i would do the same thing saying you have to take into consideration our needs too and assuming we are. I think that was just part of the way we do things here and think it is fine. And thats it for me i think. Thank you. Okay, Commission Er lee. Great report. I just have a few questions. When crab season is cut short, it started late, cut short, now salmon season doesnt start till may, what is usually the fisherman do . Do they sell more product if they travel further to get crab and bring it here . What do they actually do during the time . I wonder what we can do to help them. I will invite assistant Deputy Director of maritime to share thoughts based on his awareness. Good afternoon commissioners. Port staff. Typically between the seasons commissioner, they are winding down from crab getting all the gear set back into storage and ramping up for salmon so getting the boats outfitting depending whether they do both. Some fisherman dont do both and just do crab and some just salmon. So basically it is lost income during a time when it is short . Preparation for the season. Okay. Whatscurious about the pier 45 proposal thats supposed to be coming forward. Is there any news on that . Maybe that will drum up activity. Just curious. We are definitely going to be bringing that group out to Fisherman WharfAdvisory Committee as they have been refining their plan. They engaged with the fishers and other Environmental Advocacy organizations to see what their project could do to elevate the fisher industry and tie with coastwide efforts to improve the season et cetera. I also note we are actually planning to do a lot of activation up at Fisherman Wharf beyond lat last year and you should see those on the ground changes probably in june. We will bring that to the Fisherman WharfAdvisory Committee as well but focused on little embarcadero area and try to reduce traffic and make it more inviting for families. We are hopeful the longterm showing that move in the near term can inform the Development Project what public space they should put on the waterfront rchlt you as the commission are likely hear from the Fisherman Wharf revitalization team in the summer. Feel bad for the fisherman. They get the short end of the deal. Whatever we can do to help them. Pier 80, how are the people disembarking coming to Central Waterfront or north beach, chinatown . Are there shuttles because 10 days10 hours. Sorry. Hearing. 10 hours. This will be a vessel coming in discharging all the passengers who know home and take on a full new load. Okay, so it is basically that. Pier 80 is suited for that, closer to the airport, lot of space for parking but we have to balance that, but it is a learning experience. This was necessitated because of the schedule. Is that a place to expand so this will be a good test run and [indiscernible] how it works with the lines. I think it makes sense if 10 hours and close to the airport and free way is there. I was concerned if they were staying for a while how do they get spend money in the city. I say we welcome them to patronize the businesses near pier 80 as well, but yes there is something to be said how we make the connection and help the city economy from the passengers too. The great thing, my closing is the youth getting them involved with port. Right now it is hard to engage the youth to get involved with anything these days so im glad there is a system for that and outreach so good news. Thats it. Thank you. Commissioner adams. Excellent report mike. Glad to hear director forbes is on the mend and coming back and done a excellent job and staff in her place. I just wanted to also say, this is great that you are going to have a ship at pier 27 and pier 80. This is good for the city and need that kind of vibe. I think that is important and i think San Francisco has a opportunity toi always felt there was [indiscernible] coming through the port of San Francisco. As seattle, vancouver and alaska. I know well continue to up our game. I want to say, i want to send a special out to tiffany, you guys killed it at the open house. It was awesome. Glad i was able to participate in that and got to talk to some of the local people from the community that was out. Some good speakers and i learned a few things and i think this is good and i think that once again, the port is leading from the front, so i really enjoyed myself and ill have a couple more comments when we get to talking about cal maritime. Thanks. Thank you commissioners. Mike, thank you for a great report and again, i think we echo we are excited director forbes is on the fend mend and joining for the april 30 meeting hopefully. Thank you for the report. I wasnt able to go but friends did to the black maker pop up. It is great program. Got great social media so thank the pr team bolstering and food wise as a way to highlight folks who traditionally are small makers and local and cant at this point have permanent ceaunge or places at the Ferry Building so it is great we promote and thank port staff and echo fellow commissioners comments.
