recommend an expenditure plan which reflects a balance of needs we have in the city, so i think -- i feel comfortable advancing the program we have at this time. we did have a total of $33 million and we still do and we're in the second year of our capital budget that anticipated the vehicle license fee being on the ballot and getting approved this year, the two year delay does mean that we have a $33 million gap to fill in the second year of our budget and we'll likely have a gap in the next two years. we have plenty of time between now and fiscal year to work with the board the mayor's office to figure out how to best close that gap, and that's what i would recommend. >> and i'm going to be supportive of moving the bond forward today. it has to sit for a week, is

that right? but i did have questions and i know many others would like to know, one is there are a number of projects within the dlf funds allegations that are bond eligible and the question is, is this bond flexible enough to accommodate those dlf projects and how deeply can we search for projects like cal trans like mel assessment district for downtown and they pay their fair share given that they'll benefit from the transit improvements in the transit center area. number three, what commitments can the mta and the mayor can back field the gaps by the blf given the mayor stated support. lastly, i'll

do my best that my office and i are following up with you and fill the hole, but thank you for the presentation. >> thank you. in terms of flexibility of the different projects, there are some thing that's were proposed for the funding that are not go-bond such as fleet. state law -- everything else or most of the left of it is somewhat flexible and the ordinance is awarded that we do on have that flexibility. with regard to the cal tran contribution, we as the city, i believe also the transportation authority signed an mou committing to $60 million worth of funding. this is a possible source for that funding. it doesn't preclude us exploring other sources but i think we do want to send a strong signal to our regional partners

that we'll absolutely honor the terms of that mou, that we signed onto. in terms of committing to fill the gap, what i can commit is to work with the board and i appreciate your offer to work with us on that, and with the mayor's office to close that gap, again, both in fiscal 16 and in fiscal 17 because it's two years of impact from the two year delay of the vehicle license fee, but we're committed and my board was the first to dopt vision zero and we want to make sure we're doing what we can to raise the revenues so we can implement it as fully as possible. speaker: i look forward to the conversations. thank you. >> supervisor wiener. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i want to follow up on a few comments and questions from supervisor mar. in terms of cal trans and cal trans success in terms of its

ultimate extension to the trans bay transit center, it's in san francisco interest to make sure we keep up our commitment of a $68 million contribution but we make it work. a lot of san franciscans rely on cal trans and it's all of benefit. so we need to make sure we keep that commitment in the bond. it makes sense to make that capital investment. we know the reality of how things work with mta's budget. that's going to come out of mta's operation budget and that's going to be a detriment of muni and street projects. in terms of the mello rus, that was intended to provide funding to the downtown extension if the -- downtown

extension. that money is being divert today the trans bay center, so the mello rus money, that will be coming to the board and we'll talk about that. it's a disappointing occurrence in my view. finally, i'm in agreement in terms of the need it figure out how we're going to fill the hole in the 2015 and 2016 fiscal years that were left by the two year delay. that's $33 million for mta that was delayed two years. i'm not saying we're going to figure out a way through that entire $33 million, but we have to make a good faith effort and we can't kick the can the next year. we need to figure out

how we're going to do that. colleagues, i hope in our add-back project, we'll be generous with vision zero and the mayor has to be involved. so i think over the next few weeks, this is going to be an important conversation as a board and with the mayor as well. >> thank you, supervisor wiener. any further comments? okay. at this point, we'll open it up to public comment for 6-8. anyone who wish to publicly comment on these items. >> good afternoon, superviseers. my name is leah with the bicycle coalition. thank you for the support and the mayor. as apart of the task force, we were involved in these discussions. i want to remind everyone as you have here, that there is a hole. that we all

expected the go-bond to move forward with the vehicle license fee. we're one of the groups that's disappointed, but it does leave a hole. we look forward to it moving in 2016. i would emphasize that points have been made by the supervisors, this is a real hole next year in our safety priorities. the mta budget assumed $13 million for bicycle and pedestrian -- thanks for the support from this board, vision zero, almost every agency we know from the planning commission to the public health department, have committed to vision zero. the only way we'll do that is if we fund vision zero. we have a $13 million hole thanks to the mayor's $3 million in the proposed budget. we look to you to think

creative whether it's assessing go-bond or creative solutions and we hope you'll live up to that for vision zero. thank you. >> any other members of the public who wish to comment? >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is nicole. i wanted to express our strong support. right now it's going to fund a lot of different pedestrian safety and vision vision traffic safety improvements. i think there's also -- echoes what leah said, there's a big hole left now that the vlf has been postponed to 2016. the problem with this hole is that the longer we wait to make vision zero improvements, the more people on our streets suffering from

traffic collisions. the improvements and investments now will last generations. there's an urgency. it is not on other projects where the funded isn't needed right away. echoing leah's comments, i encourage you to take a strong look at the different options to fund vision zero looking at the go-bond and other avenues through add backs, et cetera. and i'd like to say we're completely supportive of transit, investments and investments in multi transportation safety. so i think vision zero is about making our streets safe for everyone and preventing injuries and fatalities and we look forward to continuing to work with you and continuing to follow your

leadership on this. thank you. >> thank you. any other members of the public wish to comment? seeing none. public comment is closed. supervisor tang. >> i want to thank everyone, especially those who came out to testify. i hear you loud and clear. i want to also restate what has been presented to us from the mta. i think that $300 million out of the $500 million out of this bond is going to be funding some level of improvement that will help with pedestrian safety and i really -- although there has been a hole that has been identified or that wear aware of, i want to remind everyone that this is one of most significant investments we have seen in history. think possibly about this. we're making investments for this bond that will help us for future generations so i

want to encourage everyone in seeing it that way and support the go-bond. >> thank you supervisor tang. we have the amendments circulated previously. can i have a motion to receive these. we can take them without objection. colleagues, we're going to close out today's meeting. just a couple of house cleaning items. have a motion to continue 4, 5, 6 by friday. >> we can take that without objection. >> and then our regular scheduled meeting today, can i have a motion to continue items 3 and 5 to friday. we can take that without objection. and continue items 6, 7, and 8 into next meeting. we can take that without objection. madam clerk, is there any other business before us? >> no, mr. president. >> okay, everyone. see you
