a) HVAC project progress update: The project is basically complete, training of BBR-assigned stationary engineer and back-up engineers has also been completed. The Contractor is completing software interfacing and the project is due for sign- the next couple of weeks. Additional BBR work was charged against the Maintenance & Repair budget; however, funding has since been identified and moved into the M&R budget.
b) ADA Handicap parking lot access to Facility: Progress is slow moving during this kind of weather; however we also expect this project to be completed very soon. Once the handicapped parking stalls are re-assigned/‘re-painted', Commissioners will be issued parking permits.
c) An incident occurred at the Facility last month with the Event Monitor that handles after-hours events in this Community Room and the campus police. Commission will be kept updated.
d) We have received no news regarding the FY01-02 budget request; when we do that information will be passed along to the Commission.

VII: Presentation: Commissioner Larkin introduced San Francisco Redevelopment Agency, Bayview-Hunter’s Point Redevelopment Area Project Manager, Mr. Stanley Muraoka who came to present on the Revitalization Concept Plan (for the Bayview-Hunter’s Point). Mr. Muraoka thanked the Commission for the invitation and opportunity to give a brief explanation and update of status of the Concept Plan.
Stan reported that the latest version of the Revitalization Concept Plan, distributed on a limited basis until final printing on Thurs., March 15 in this very room at a very well attended Community Meeting, is the result of a 4-year effort by the Bayview-Hunter’s Point Project Area Committee/BVHP-PAC (elected from/by the Community in 1996 as an advisory group to the Redevelopment Agency on feasibility and types of activities).
For the last few (2-3) years, the Redevelopment Agency and PAC with several technical consultants have embarked on a series of Community workshops to help create and establish basically all the text of the Concept Plan (about 200 pages currently being type-set to print for distribution). A Concept Plan Executive Summary highlights the Goals and Objectives for Community Revitalization, i.e. Focus Area Plans (redevelopment ideas, maximizing participation of residents and businesses, define agency business, etc.) and a one-page catalogue of documents listing all pertinent documentation (reports, amendments, etc.) most of which will be published later this year. The Plan will then be submitted to the Housing and Port Commissions (probably around Oct. '01) and finally to the Board of Supervisors. The expectation is get some kind of go-ahead by January 2002.
As a precursor project to the total Redevelopment Plan, MUNI and the Art Commission have submitted application for a $2M grant to improve the Plaza next to the Bayview Opera House. Last year, the project (BV Connections) was awarded a $2M grant to construct the Plaza on Mendell Street adjacent to this current phase of the project.
Finally, the Redevelopment Agency and PAC are working very closely with MUNI on basically every aspect of the Third Street Light Rail and Revitalization.
After a brief session of questions and answers and some discussion mainly regarding truck routes, the Open Space Program, a "Town Center Area', and PAC's involvement in the Concept Plan, Mr. Muraoka again thanked the Commission for the invitation and agreed to return to update the Commission at a later date.
Mr. Muraoka also introduced Mr. Don Capobres, the Redevelopment Agency's Project Manager assigned to the Hunter’s Point Shipyard. Mr. Capobres agreed to return to the Commission to update on the clean-up and redevelopment project in that area.
VII: Presentation: Commissioner Larkin next introduced Mr. John Bellanca, the Human Resources Representative from Decorative Plant Services to present their Quarterly Hiring Report. Commissioner Larkin requested similar break-out information on the permanent workforce.
After questions and discussion from Commissioners and brief remarks from public present, Mr. Bellanca agreed to return to update the Commission.
VIII. Introduction of New Business:
A presentation on the Shipyard clean-up and redevelopment will be calendared for a future meeting as well as an invitation to the Bayview-Hunter’s Point-PAC.
IX. Adjournment:
Commissioner Hardin moved and Commissioner Brown seconded to adjourn the SECFCommission meeting at 7:19 p.m.
