4 A. CALL TO ORDER: AIRPORT COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES November 21, 2006 The regular meeting of the Airport Commission was called to order at 9:00 AM in Room 400, City Hall, San Francisco, CA. B. ROLL CALL: Present: Absent: Hon. Larry Mazzola, President Hon. Caryl Ito Hon. Eleanor Johns Hon. Rich Guggenhime Hon. Linda S. Crayton, Vice President C. ADOPTION OF MINUTES: The minutes of the special meeting of November 6, 2006 were adopted unanimously. No D. DIRECTOR S REPORT: 1. Report on Contracts Awarded to Disadvantaged Business Enterprises FY Status Report of Airport Contract Awards to DBEs. Ms. Sandra Crumpler, Business Outreach Office, said that the report contains two charts. The first chart summarizes the overall contracts and the second chart provides a breakdown of these contracts by contract number, title, name of primes and dollar amounts for primes, all subcontractors and certified DBE subcontractors. In FY 2005/2006 the Commission awarded contracts for construction, professional services and concession leases. Of the 24 construction contracts, which includes Federal Aviation (FAA) and Federal Highway (FHWY), for a total award of $76 million, $27 million, or 36% went to DBE primes and subs. Nineteen of the 24 construction contracts were awarded to non-dbe contractors, Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 4

5 totaling $63.7 million. They subcontracted $15 million or 24% of their work to certified DBE firms. Five construction contracts were awarded to certified DBE primes, totaling $14 million. Six professional services contracts were awarded totaling $2 million and of that amount $988,500 or 49% were awarded to DBE primes. A concession lease for the International Terminal Specialty Retail Store was awarded to Brookstone Company, Inc. Although there were no awards to DBEs, our overall level of DBE participation for retail and restaurant operations is over 60%. For the record, SFO has one of the best Airport Concession DBE Programs in the United States. There have been recent changes to the San Francisco Contracting Program for local DBEs. Since September 2006, the City has implemented a new contracting program, administered by HRC for local businesses, under the new Chapter 14B, titled Local Business Enterprise and Non-Discrimination in Contracting Ordinance. This ordinance replaces Chapter 14A, DBE Utilization Ordinance. Major changes include contracting goals and percentage discounts for LBEs (instead of DBEs) and includes local minority and women owned firms, and, setasides of annual contracts valued at $250,000 or less for micro businesses. Airport staff will continue to work closely with Human Rights Commission staff to ensure that our contracts comply with the new LBE Ordinance. Commissioner Ito commended Ms. Crumpler on her report and the Airport for its outstanding statistics. She noted that Ms. Crumpler typically works with the various Chambers and asked if different groups have been brought in beyond those that we traditionally reach out to. Ms. Crumpler responded that we have. Commissioner Ito asked Ms. Crumpler if she has found that the Chambers have been asserting themselves more since the ordinance has changed. Ms. Crumpler responded that she has not spoken with them directly about the impact but they are continuing to send out notices. Commissioner Ito asked Ms. Crumpler if she knows how the Airport is stacking up against other City departments. She is hearing some concerns at the community level that some departments aren t paying attention. In our defense she knows that we are doing everything possible to manage this. Ms. Crumpler responded that it has only been six months and it usually takes about a year to see how the numbers come in. Commissioner Mazzola asked what area the Local Business Enterprise covers. Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 5

6 Ms. Crumpler responded that the area covers San Francisco. 2. EEO Report for Fiscal Years and Report on Airport Commission=s Labor Force Analysis and EEO Activities Report for Fiscal Years and Ms. Theresa Lee, Deputy Director, Administration explained that the annual EEO report provides information on activities we conducted in FY and what we plan to do this fiscal year to ensure EEO compliance. Our primary goal is to insure that there are no employment barriers for anyone and that every individual has equal access to Airport jobs and other employment related opportunities. The Airport=s work force has decreased by 11% or 160 employees since Notable composition changes over the five years includes the increase of Hispanic employees by 2%, the decrease of European Americans by 3%, and the decrease of female employees by 2%. These composition changes have occurred mostly in the crafts and maintenance classifications where labor force availability of Hispanics has risen, and the availability of women continues to be extremely limited and competitive. Page 15 of the report displays the Airport=s labor force as of July 2006 by race, gender, job category and market availability. To address the underutilized areas, staff prepared an aggressive five year recruitment outreach effort that includes working with labor unions, schools, professional women organizations and community-based organizations specializing in job development, training and placement. In addition, last fiscal year the Airport established a Recruitment Advisory Committee made up of senior management staff members and is co-chaired by the Deputies for Facilities and Administration. Through this Committee, Airport recruitment and selection processes will be monitored closely to ensure that there are no barriers that would prevent female and other underutilized groups from employment at the Airport. We plan to build upon our efforts from last fiscal year and identify specific job positions such as custodians and some professional classes for increased outreach. We recognize the challenges and are committed to continuing our diligence in implementing a vigorous program to remove barriers that may prevent equal employment opportunity. Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 6

7 The Airport=s EEO report presented to the Commission includes information regarding the EEO Program achievements for FY 2005/2006, the EEO Program activities for FY 2006/2007; and a work force review and utilization analysis of the Airport=s labor force, department-wide, by division, by job category, race and gender. Commissioner Ito said that in looking over these charts she notes that office clericals and service maintenance still have the most diverse range of employment. She asked what kinds of promotional opportunities these employees have. Ms. Lee responded that the Airport over the years has focused on staff development and succession planning where opportunities are identified to develop employees for promotional opportunities. Most recently we initiated a Management Leadership Development Program that will identify training through special assignments for employees to develop their skills. We are working with the Department of Human Resources to identify ways to provide a ladder, especially at the clerical level, where they can be eligible to apply for administrative analyst positions. Commissioner Ito asked about the diversity in those placements. Ms. Lee responded that the intern program is very diverse, especially in the highly successful Career Connect Program which focuses on high risk. Ninety percent of our interns are African Americans. The summer intern program is fairly equal in diversity and gender. Our Youth Works Program is 75% Asian. Commissioner Ito asked about the nature of discrimination complaints. Ms. Lee responded that the complaints ranged from alleged gender, age and racial discrimination. Commissioner Ito asked if all the complaints were handled in-house or if they were filed with Fair Employment and Housing. Ms. Lee responded that our goal is to be proactive and take care of the issues inhouse. However, employees also have the opportunity to file with DHR or EEOC. No more than two of the complaints listed were filed outside of the Airport. Commissioner Johns asked how many of the Employment and Community Partnership Program participants are San Francisco residents. Ms. Lee responded that they are all San Francisco residents. We will take another look at this in the future to see if it makes sense to include San Mateo County. Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 7

8 E. ITEMS INITIATED BY COMMISSIONERS: There were no items initiated by Commissioners. F. ITEMS RELATING TO ADMINISTRATION, OPERATIONS & MAINTENANCE: Item No. 3 was moved by Commissioner Johns and seconded by Commissioner Ito. The vote to approve was unanimous. 3. Award of Contract No. 3590B - South Field Runway Safety Area Construction - Phase B - Proven Management, Inc. - $6,935,348 No Resolution awarding Contract 3590B, South Field Runway Safety Area Construction, Phase B, to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder, Proven Management, Inc., in the amount of $6,935,348. Mr. Ernie Eavis, Deputy Director, Facilities, said that Proven Management submitted the only bid for this contract. Commissioner Mazzola thought that a contract would be rebid when only one bid was received. Mr. Eavis responded that this contract is funded through a grant. Item No. 4 was moved by Commissioner Guggenhime and seconded by Commissioner Ito. The vote to approve was unanimous. 4. Authorization to Issue a Request for Proposals for Marketing Services No Resolution authorizing the issuance of a Request for Proposals for Marketing Services to retain and develop airline service and support internal revenue generating SFO Divisions. Ms. Kandace Bender, Deputy Director, Communications and Marketing explained that four years ago the Airport implemented its first marketing program which was designed to drive traffic to the Airport and encourage spending among our passengers. Major components of the program include a quarterly advertising campaign, barter marketing partnerships throughout the City, airport to airport marketing exchange, marketing programs created to recruit new airlines, a strong branding program and a new design of the Flysfo website. Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 8

9 While no single factor is responsible for revenue generation we believe that marketing efforts play an important role in helping to attract nine new airlines, increase per capita spending during holiday promotions, promote the new long term parking garage as well as the new food and beverage program. The current marketing contract will end on June 30, To build on this success and capitalize on momentum we are seeking approval to issue a new RFP for a new marketing contract. Components of the new RFP will include building on the existing marketing program and continuing our advertising campaign. Recognizing that the international communities in the Bay Area represent a significant segment of our passengers, the RFP will specifically request extensive marketing strategies that target international communities in the Bay Area such Asian Pacific, Hispanic and European communities. Commissioner Ito asked about the timeline... will we try to complete this in May? Ms. Bender said that we will. Commissioner Ito thanked Ms. Bender for being inclusive and reaching out to the international community but felt that the non-english speaking communities need to be addressed. Item No. 5 was moved as amended by Commissioner Johns and seconded by Commissioner Mazzola. The vote to approve was unanimous. 5. Authorization to Issue a Request for Proposals for Airport Telecommunications Services No Resolution authorizing the issuance of a Request for Proposals to acquire and implement Airport Telecommunications Services. Ms. Lee said that as part of activating the new International Terminal the Commission approved a contract in 1999 with AT&T Local Services to install, provision and maintain voice and data services at the Airport via a new fiber optic telecommunications infrastructure for a seven year term with two one-year options. The current contract expires on August 31, This item requests Commission approval to issue a Request for Proposals to continue this service and solicit a contractor to provide telecommunications services for local voice and data services, long distance service and the associated professional services for their design and implementation. If approved, we plan to issue the RFP in February We anticipate the length of the Minutes, November 21, 2006, Page 9

10 contract to be similar to the current agreement. We will return to the Commission to request award of the contract sometime in early Summer of Commissioner Johns asked if this is a different format from what is normally done... issue an RFP, report back to the Commission with the scoring results, ask for authorization to negotiate with the contractor and then award the contract. She thought a step was missing. Ms. Lee responded that we have done it both ways. Typically, we go with the highest rated proposer, the terms are reviewed and we return to the Commission to approve the terms and award the contract. Commissioner Johns asked why that wasn t being done here. This contract has the potential for having a lot of respondents so the Commission should have the opportunity to see the scoring and authorize negotiations. Mr. Martin said that we will be happy to return to the Commission for authorization to negotiate the contract. Generally if the contract is very routine we may skip that step, however, this may be more complex. We will return to the Commission for authorization to negotiate. G.
