Committee recommends $1.2M–$1.25M relocation services contract for Treasure Island residents

Supervisor Norman Yee called item 2 as Bob Peck of the Treasure Island Development Authority presented a professional services contract with Associated Right of Way Services to provide relocation and right‑of‑way services through 06/30/2022 with two 2‑year extension options.

Bob Peck described outreach and transition housing planning for 675 current households on Treasure Island, with higher‑level engagement focused on about 220 market‑rate households who were residents prior to 02/2011. He said services will include education and outreach materials, an initial interview with households to assess candidates for early projects, and identification of candidates for initial replacement or in‑lieu payment options. Peck explained moving assistance will be provided either as a direct payment to residents who self‑move or via subcontracted professional movers coordinated by the relocation consultant.

Supervisor Katie Tang asked whether the contract covers 220 households only or all 675; Peck confirmed engagement with all households and more intensive services for the 220. Committee discussion probed what the $1,250,000 covers; Peck said the five‑year agreement would fund outreach, interviews, candidate identification and moving assistance options and that the consultant identified four key personnel and may supplement staff for drop‑in hours.

Sevin Campbell (BLA) reported the contract amount over the five‑year term is $1,200,000 (not‑to‑exceed) and said funding is tied to leasing revenues with $400,000 budgeted for the current year and FY18–19; future years will require board appropriation. The committee voted, without objection, to send the item to the full Board with a positive recommendation.
