before there was a vision zero and the resources and priority given to this for the last months and the coordination work with the transportation authority and all the departments. i want to recognize that work and it's also really great to hear vision zero is getting reverb rated around the city and we are hearing it over and over and reflected in the mayor's budget. i think we have a lot to be proud of in the short amount of time. the outcomes and injuries and fatalities is very real and it is urgent for us to address them. there is a lot of work and passion which i appreciate is put into the goals for the city. commissioner wiener? >>supervisor scott weiner: thank you. thank you for all your work on this. i think a

lot of positive progress has happened in the last year. in terms of moving forward of vision zero, obviously money matters. so i know that in the mta's budget that came to the agency from the board for the year two budget starting july first 1st and next year the agency assumed the vehicle license fee about $33 million would be in the budget and as i understand it about $18 million for muni, $15 million for improving street safety if i recall correctly as a major task force for the ballot this november. the mayor then indicated his concern from proceeding this november and after a number of weeks of discussions, we joined with the mayor to move

forward for the november 2016 ballot and we forward that this tuesday. my question is what happened that seems to blow a $30 million hole and i know the mayor's office found $7 million to back fill part of that. can you address that particular issue? >> yeah. i think you summed it up well. we assumed about $33 million in the second year of the two 2-year budget on the assumption that the vehicle license fee revenues would be there. just as the mayor's budget originally was assuming with $42 million for the paving program. the mayor and his budget was able to fully fill that $42 million gap as

you said for paving. for us they were able to find $7.5 million towards closing our gap. i have not had an opportunity to discuss with the mayor and his budget director since the decision was made on tuesday to move that for the two 2 years and trying to figure out how to fill that gap because it wasn't coming negative -- until the fiscal year we had a year to work on that process. >> in terms of deferring the vehicle license fee by 2 years, we did talk to the mayor's office about making sure that when the mayor proposes the budget for next fiscal year, that those funds are particularly around vision zero or compensated for. i

think we are getting really good momentum that we can't afford to lose two 2 years because of a political decision made that would go november 2016 to be elect. if it's a broader lecter and more people voting with a higher turnout in order to get it passed. i don't think vision zero should suffer as a result. muni shouldn't suffer as a result. we are really counting on the mayor's budget next fiscal year containing those funds. in the short run we are going through our brosz -- process as the board right now so we can add money for

vision zero. i would encourage the agency to work with our budget committee in terms of determining what we can do on our end as supervisors. >> thank you. we really appreciate that. >> thank you. >> seeing no further comments from committee members, thank you director reiskin for presenting. i would like to ask for public comment. if you would like to speak, please step up. >> good to see you. >> good afternoon, everyone. i just wanted to thank everyone for taking the time to

convene around vision zero again and highlight the progress that's been made. it's really encouraging. one thing i especially like to highlight is what director reiskin was referring to around the coordination piece. some of the departments came together around complete streets process a few weeks ago and are working towards developing ain'ter agency early implementation checklist so not just within dpw or mta, but across different agencies they can come together and look at the projects that are planned and make sure those are coordinated. this is something that came out of the pedestrian strategy that was released last year and in the strategy there is a goal to implement those checklist in six different city areas by the end of the month. i would

like to highlight the process that's been done and what the committee has done to keep track of projects and we just came from a planning commission meeting of that adoption. the planning solution was that the planning department would help shape that complete street checklist. i want to thank the city departments for their encouraging work going forward. thank you. >> thank you, ms. schneider. any other public comment. if you would like to speak, please lineup. >> tyler frisby, from the bicycle coalition. i want to thank you for your focus on vision zero and want to flag supervisor wieners comments and funding on this project. we appreciate the support of

the commissioners in working ways to back fill the vlf funding. as mr. reiskin pointed out they were counted on for the budget. this is critical in the new funding environment. thank you to all of you for your work. >> thank you. seeing no other public comment on this item, public comment is now closed. again, thank you to everyone. i also want to reiterate or concur with ms. schneider's comments. the inter agency department working is incredibly pornd and i know director reiskin talked about this as well. we have noticed an incredible effort at that coordination and departments that are working well together and even working more closely. they are on livable streets and mta have done so much to improve that communication. i see that director cheng

wanted to make comments on that. >> thank you for making the presentation today on behalf of the city staff and agencies who are all working on this topic. project delivery has been not only a focus of the last two 2 years but really the last several years we've seen the city step up and start delivering much more consistently and working with one another and working with your office and see what is working and not only the areas that director reiskin mentioned. we are working along the areas around ceqa reforms and changes that are happening at the state level which really san francisco through our planning department and various agencies led the way with how

we can look at ceqa to protect the environment and also align with what we are trying to do with statewide mandates with compliment change and around transportation policy. this is also started to have an impact with the cal trans reform process whereas looking accrue is the nation where the standards and director reiskin was president of the national association of cities and transportation officials. we are really pleased that that trend has started to influence cal trans and those design standards really help our work and it's starting to ring true to our streets and on lombardy and highway 1 and 19th avenue on the west side. finally on funding, i want to highlight the transportation authority

and all the other agencies which we fund the transportation improvements are coordinating better and better. we have a round of prop k five 5-year program which hopefully will reflect that type of coordination to provide that consistent funding at the neighborhood level and every neighborhood can engage at the planning level as well as the capital projects that we bring through prop k involved with the city funds so all the agencies are providing their expertise and funding and through checklist with tools that nicole schneider was mentioning to have better results. >> thank you director cheng. commissioner mar? >> i know the newly elected mayor of paris had an announcement that the city of

paris is looking at reducing speed limits to about 20 miles per hour, 30 kilometers per hour except for the major boulevard, some of the major blvd areas. i know several years ago i met with ritchie patia who was suggesting major changes like that. i know there needs to be a lot of dialogue. i'm wondering if the evaluation and monitoring committee that you are working on are looking at efforts like that. we are looking at fulton along the richmond district where several recent incidents of really really really young children hit and severely injured. i know that fulton is a 35 miles per hour zone with a small exception of 25 miles per hour around senior center. but i'm just wondering if you are looking at some suggestions of reducing the speed limit in key areas where we have high collision corridors? >> it's a great question. we

have another working group called the city vision working group. essentially what will it take to achieve vision 0 oechlt -- zeer oechlt we are looking at an international receive in terms of best practices and looking at the best practices that are still an opportunity for us to implement in san francisco and bringing a reduction to that on the streets. >> i would like to be involved and i will make sure that peter from my staff is in touch with you. it's wonderful to say paris and hidlalgo. that is a specific committee within your broader task force. >> we've had a lot of interest and we would welcome yours as well. thank you. >> thank you, commissioner

mafrment i didn't know that. i'm glad that paris had led the way. i'm seeing no more comment and discussion on this item. i will close item no. 4. madam clerk please call item no. 5. >> tim 5, near term capital projects information only. >> we have seleta reynolds to present on the scope for budget and near end term capital projects. >> thank you commissioners. i'm going to run through this rather quickly. so at the last meeting commissioner mar questioned we bring back an idea of the actual schedules for all of the 40 projects that we have currently that we are aiming to implement by january of 2016. so this is maybe one of the most boring power points ever, but it does job at getting the information

across. this is just to give you an initial glance at the projects and kind of where they are currently lining up in terms of when we would actually see them live on the streets. many of them are in their construction phases. some of them you can see are multi-faced projects, policies, the project from 11-4 and bring it closer in. similarly the portrero avenue street escapes will deliver most improvements and finish the job later on in 2016. i draw your attention to no. 9, the blvd speed reduction. that includes turning ton signal at sunset and boulevard and toning down the speed. one of

my favorite sayings is that you can't put up a sign to change the design. this is a chance for us to sort of see how it works to lower the speed limit there. the next slide projects 11-20, you can see these are -- the main take away from this presentation is just that we are anticipating that projects are going to be rolling out and being delivered on a constant basis over the next year 1/2. one of the criteria for us choosing the projects to be on this list is projects that are visible that we can go out and talk about and continue the momentum and conversation around vision zero. i think it will be great that we'll have many opportunities to do that over the coming months and

hoping to collaborate with your offices and the communities in which these projects live in order to come together and continue the conversations about vision zero. i would also draw your attention to project no. 40. commissioner kim, you had a question about the 4th and king start. it is scheduled to be completed some time in the summer fall. it's under way. and we'll get back to you with a contact for that project. but really this is the beginning of fine tuning all of the scope schedules and sort of project descriptions. but i wanted to bring back a first cut to give you a sense of the relative duration and the finish lines for each of the projects on the list. with that i'm happy to take

questions. >> commissioner mar? >> i just wanted to thank you for this. it shows how much you are juggling with the schedules and it's great that many of them are going to be completed by the year-end of 2014-2015. thank you. >> the graph was actually really helpful and the visual is really nice and kind of show casing what's been done and what we are expecting to see. my questions are really more for you in terms of some of the questions we had on these projects. on the pedestrian improvements being completed, is this the pilot bulb outs that we've done. is that what we are referring to? >> and then we came back and made all the crosswalk visibility and helped with some striping through intersection itself. that was putting a bow on it. i know

that they have that project team has planned to go out and sort of do the next round of those kinds of improvements along six and also bring back some evaluation about what we've already done and has it worked and not worked and finding planters around those kinds of things. even though occasionally we would like to give ourselves a gold start in terms of it's complete, as has been pointed out that we like to constantly go back and evaluate and fine tune a project even after we call them done. >> no. i appreciate the work. i think something was done with the signalization too, the left turn from signal handout -- to hourdz. --

howard. i know on 6 and howard the left hand going to six and where people feel intimidated by cars and where they are more likely to get hit. continuing the work on that is great. the golden gate no. 4, is this part of the tenderloin little say gone project or is it a specific project? >> it's a specific project for that corridor. initially we thought we might do some signal retiming, but after being out there on walk to workday, i think we all got excited and interested in the potential to actually do a road dyed on that project and if

we can iron that whole thing out and calm it down would make a big difference. that's that project. so that's why it's sort of a, this is a newer idea and we were committed to delivering it and we want to continue to nail down that schedule as we get the funds and p.m. assigned. it will be a great project. >> we were really excited when director reiskin publically committed to walk to workday and this is from our vision zero budget and it's a really important corridor and certainly feeds into sixth street and the freeway. it's a very important corridor for us to focus on. thank you for that commitment. seeing no other questions or comments from board members, at this time i would open for public comment. thank you so much, ms. reynolds. >> thank you.

>> i'm bob plant hold from walks. i have questions about money and timing. since there is not a vlf on this year's ballot it's going to be two 1/2 years before possible money flows. before this passes. we have this project in your timeline in your powerpoint. i want to ask you to think of asking soon for staff to come up with some estimates on how these projects will be affected. yes, the mayor may come up with some money and you may come up with money. realistically the money projected is not going to be there for two 1/2 years. consider asking how will these projects be affected. is it stretched out in timeline,

put on hold. i think it's relevant for the public, for you policy makers, for staff to have that rather than just guess and hope we'll find some here and there and throw some money in. that's not a good planning process. at this point i'm going to say please ask for an analysis of how the change in funding expectations will affect these 40 projects. thank you. >> thank you mr. plant hold. any other public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is now closed. at this time this brings us to item no. 6. introduction of new items. are there any new items? seeing no new items, actually i got a request from commissioner wiener if we can actually take a motion to rescind the vote for item no.

2, approval of minutes. we can take that vote altogether. actually commissioner mar just stepped out. would that mean his vote wouldn't be? >> right. if you rescind the vote you would have to redo it. i'm not sure actually. well, at this time we'll open up for public comment. is there any general public comment? okay. seeing none, public comment is closed. we'll take a moment to see if we can take a revote on that.

it's okay. okay. all right. seeing no other items. meeting is adjourned.

>> so what brought you out here for the bike ride today? >> i grew up in san francisco but i have been living in new york. i wanted to see what san francisco is doing with infrastructure. >> cities are where people are living these days. the bay area is doing a lot with construction and the way to change the world starts here. >> we are about to take a bike ride. we have 30 cyclist. i'm really excited to hit the road and see what the city has in store.

>> i definitely recommend it to people. it's a fun afternoon and you learn so many things. >> this is so much fun. i go to parts of the city that i don't come to. this will make the city a more susta the inteblth of our everyday life everyone with the seniors use it for work

and play. although there's a many valuable websites on line. >> the first thing a senior will ask me is about viruses if they go on websites what are the discharges of being on the internet. >> for instance, you see something that maybe from the bank and the first thing it starts asking you for a private information where you get intiger's offers and they're not real. the way to tell where it's a fishing scam or not is who it's from. they can fake a name that says

paypal but they can't fake an e-mail address it would be from a bank if they have any issue it's not going to be over an e-mail. >> stay away from e-mail all the same can be said on networking sites. the user should make sure they know the person before clicking on the requests >> some of tracking software they can get argue bank account information some are more hamper full we'll get pop ups and i want to avoid those. there are many levels of protect your i s public works usually has a security looking for
