Present Ctoner: Menlo School and College. Present Use: Administrative offices, study halls, and bachelor faculty apartments. Significance; This house, one of the first in California to be constructed entirely of reinforced concrete, was designed by the prominent California architect, William Curlett, for the mining heiress Mary O'Brien Payne and her wealthy husband, Theodore F. Payne. The house was subsequently owned by the inventor Leon F. Douglass. PART I. HISTORICAL INFORMATION A Physical History 1. Date of erection: 1909-1914. The house was commissioned in 1906 and construction was probably delayed by Mr. Payne's death in 1907. 2. Architect: William Curlett (1845-1914). Curlett came to San Francisco from Ireland in 1871. Initially he worked as a draftsman for Thomas J. Johnston; they established a firm of Johnston & Curlett in 1873. In 1877 he joined Augustus Laver in the firm of Laver & Curlett, and thus was partially responsible for the 1879 design of Linden Towers for James C. Flood. They designed the William S. O'Brien mausoleum, which Oscar Lewis described as "long unrivaled (despite stiff competition) for sheer ugliness in the field of cemetery architecture." After 1880 Curlett was associated with several different architects: Theodore A.

    AGENDA ITEM I-4 Public Works STAFF REPORT City Council Meeting Date: 12/4/2018 Staff Report Number: 18-225-CC Informational Item: Update on the citywide Safe Routes to School program Recommendation This is an informational item and does not require City Council action. Policy Issues The development of a Citywide Safe Routes to School program (Program) is included as one of the top-six priority projects in the City Council’s adopted 2018 work plan. The program is also an implementation program included in the 2016 general plan circulation element. Background On February 6, 2018, the City Council adopted its 2018 work plan, including the Citywide Safe Routes to school program and further prioritized it as one of the city’s top-six priority projects. Accordingly, staff reprioritized work efforts and prepared a draft request for proposals for the program. The Safe Routes to School subcommittee of the Complete Streets Commission and advocates from Parents for Safe Routes reviewed the draft request for proposals. Staff incorporated this feedback and released the request for proposals May 2, 2018. Six proposals were received by the May 23, 2018, due date. A team of seven people comprised of City staff and Complete Streets Commission subcommittee members reviewed proposals and recommended Alta Planning + Design to initiate the program. Authorization for entering into an agreement with Alta Planning + Design was approved at the City Council meeting June 19, 2018. A notice to proceed was given in July 2018, and this report serves as an update to the work that has been performed over the last five months.
