Committee advances retroactive extension and MOU for Treasure Island administration
Summary
The Budget & Finance Committee moved two related measures for Treasure Island: a retroactive extension of the cooperative agreement with the U.S. Navy and a memorandum of understanding placing TIDA staff under the City Administrator; the MOU carries an FY07 cost estimate just over $1 million.
The Budget & Finance Committee moved two related Treasure Island measures forward Tuesday, asking the full Board of Supervisors to approve a retroactive extension of the cooperative agreement with the U.S. Navy and a memorandum of understanding to place Treasure Island Development Authority staff under the City Administrator.
Ms. Hennessy read the calendar items and a presenter described the extension as routine: “The resolution before you today would approve an extension of the existing coop agreement between the Navy and TIDA, retroactive to September of last year through October of this year,” the director said.
Committee staff recounted the programmatic services TIDA provides on Treasure Island — water and wastewater, stormwater, electric and gas utilities, security, public safety, grounds and street maintenance, property management and caretaker services — and said the cooperative agreement had been modified previously to make Redevelopment Agency involvement explicit. City staff noted prior audits identified deficiencies in day-to-day administration, prompting the administrative arrangement now embodied in the MOU.
The MOU would transfer eight authorized TIDA positions to city employment under the City Administrator’s office and assign budget, payroll, HR and real-estate services to the city administrator. City staff estimated FY07 costs of approximately $950,000 for salaries and mandatory fringe benefits plus roughly $110,000 for administrative services provided by the City Administrator’s office — “a total just over a million dollars,” the presenter said — and noted because the amount exceeds $1 million committee approval is required.
Supervisor Rose and other members treated the measures as required, routine approvals. With no public comment, Supervisor Gotti moved both items; Supervisor Mercarini seconded and the items were placed in the hands of the committee.
Next steps: The committee forwarded the items for Board consideration with the committee’s recommendation. The calendar notes the extension is retroactive and that detailed oversight responsibilities and cost-reimbursement terms should be reviewed by the full Board before final approval.
