be advisable to look at that but in terms of what is effective to our campaign lobbying laws not to limit ourselves quite frankly campaign laws have changed and supreme court rulings have changed. i certainly know t think it is great to inform our decision making but not limited to prop j itself that's my $0.02 and commissioner keane >> we wouldn't have to limit ourselves i propose for some future meeting we put on the agenda our analysis of prop j and prop e and what was lost from j that was 92 not recess recollected from prop e and

whether or not we want to go forward and perhaps use our own power of this commission putting something on the ballot relating to those measures in prop j that were resolute or lost because of the supreme court decision in los angeles and wanting to go forward with those. >> and if perhaps the only amendment if the staff knows this should be part of a larger decision. >> sure feel free the sky is the limit and. is there a second to that motion this is >> second. >> any is there any additional public comment all in favor. >> i. >> i. >> opposed.

hearing none i think it's it is there anything else we need to do >> i want to say a quick comment again, i want to commend the civil grand jury on the work and it gives us a lot to think and talk about. and at the same time i want to be mindful we've created work for our staff as well. and i think this is will important to create i'm adding for work kind of a dashboard of what we needing mediate in terms of recommendations today, we're talking about larger projects it's been peppered with human resources and i want to have a clear exception and revisit is and prioritize the work.

again, it's easy to say we should take those on but if you don't prioritize them and look at them reasonably it wouldn't get done >> commissioner keane. >> i want to put in the form of a motion we want to thank the grand jury and commend them for the great and hard working folks they've helped us and educated us and moved us i know quite positively in our work and we owe them a great dei'd put thatn the form of a motion. >> public comment. >> all in favor that passes. >> i want to thank you and the

staff we've done look good things as a commission ii do think that some of our disclosure and our website are some of the best around and some of our investigative work is good we can do better and i thank the civil grand jury for helping us to figure out that out i know we have a great staff that is going to do a good job. unless there's anything further we're adjourned >> oh, motion to adjourn. >> public comment? adjourned

connect our road under the 5 p heading and asked for clarification my concerns were rather than the proposition not to fitting itself eligibility requirements for the transbay remits and at the end of the day it's perplex being in danger because of this. erick ruth linkage talked about the projects funded through an increase in the vehicle licensed fee the cac was assured the planning efforts would continue and not the only source of funds. john larson questioned the project in light of ocean beach that calls for closing the highway because of erosion and look forward of the cac promised a followup discussion during

>> good morning, supervisors i'll be brief because bryan said everything the only thing i'll add is the issue of the people seniors and people with about disabled not having enough time to cross the street i look into providing them with a key element that the crossing will allow them additional time to cross. the other thing is actually, i use much stronger language i suggest reducing the creation from $1.2 million to $300,000. because frankly some of the items on the schedule surface i'm concerned i suggest they go back to the committee and give a

presentation and be ready to answer some of the questions thank you very much. >> thank you is there any public comment? seeing none, this item let's move on to item 3. >> item three and four convoys the consent calendar to be routine and may be acted upon by a single roll call vote of the commission. there will be no separate discussion of these items unless a member of the commission, the public, or staff so requests. >> would committee members like to sever any items on the consent calendar seeing none, call the next item. you called both the items >> oh. >> okay. so are there my comes amens or questions from committee members seeing none on the consent

and today, i still have those concerns about access for our seniors our disabled as well as our veterans. my volunteer services is for the advisory committee and where i served as officers of the chair of the subcommittee and was definitely involved in the finance committee. i also was revolved with the study of barriers of transportation in the city which is about a year ago. in addition for 3 terms i served as is pedestrian safety act under opposed folks. with that, i can say without hesitation my commitment to the quality of life concerns and my ability to be a good listener and i do plan to continue my involvements with any community

district 67 as well as other areas i've lived in i assure you i will make this happen >> thank you, m smith. >> as someone who served on the pedestrian safety advisory committee what are the paralyzes around the disabled and seniors and one of the great high rate southerners will be disabled persons they don't have enough time to be able to filter into the mainstream of san francisco but we have innovation for the needs and the upkeep of the passageway the sidewalk as well as the crosswalks as far as accessibility for our seniors

the seniors and disabled persons have to walk if one point to another to remain save. >> thank you any other questions or comments for your commitments. are there any other applicant here to present on this seat. okay. seeing none we'll move into public comment for this item. sir >> thank you. i'll be brief. i too what was really unique he was wheelchair bound i'm not saying we need someone from district 6 from a wheelchair to be representing the disabled community but at some point we really want to have someone like that to bring in a unique prospective and thank you very much >> thank you, sir. >> is is there any additional

public comment seeing none, public comment is closed. i just would request to the plans and program committee to forward mr. randy smith with full recommendation it is vacated by a resident of integrity 6 our office spent time logan for someone to represent the seniors and disabled people in our district. and i appreciate raymond both in the south of market when we had the redevelopment plan for many, many years we worked on our alley master plan much of the pedestrian safety improvements in the south of market area. along with pedestrian safety and other issues like the open space. and also happy to see anyone someone that has served on on and on our advisory committee

it's great to have a qualified applicant it's a hard seat to fill we had an amazing representative for the district and the city and the disabled community i agree with mr. lebron it's different to have someone who is physically disabled to serve on the cac i 4r50bd look forward to acknowledge applicant we'll get to appoint someone to the cac. that's my request request we forward will raymond smith s with recommendation so there's a motion ohoh - okay. there's a motion and secondly, please take roll call >> on the recommendation to appoint mr. smith. supervisor breed. supervisor campos. supervisor kim.

supervisor mar absent. supervisor yee. that item passes >> thank you. can we please call the next item >> item 67 recommended approval of 14, 2014 prop k 5 year provisions prioritization programs this is an action item. >> any questions from the committee oh, we have a publication. >> i'll be really, really fast. >> maria thank you supervisor kim. this is probably would be one of the most important decisions this is the approval of the is 5 year plans that the prop k savings measure it is by the expenditure plan meant to present transparency into the

process as well as certainty for the public and others to see what is coming ahead and maximize missing leveraging issues for the city and county of san francisco. on the website what we have two presentations what is prop k and what are the 5 year plans yo go into that but it's a great reference and our deputy city attorney are going to tobacco tag team and i'd like to let the committee know we get the opposition we have folks from the mta area and other folks and strangely from the chech republic so with that, last month we had a productive of the bart portion of the state of the

great repair the vehicles and guide ways and the public works and whatnot what is left is pretty sure everything else we have the finalizing of the bus preferential streets with that, i'm i'm going to into through this highlight some of the things that prop k has delivered and phone call e focus on the policies we've delivered. so you see on this screen the 14 categories that we are talking about today. one thing i want to refresh our memories and for those watching we apply lessons learned from the past and the current context by what you see update is the

san francisco transportation plan plan in the area and a whole bunch of initiatives from the agencies. and you can see those up through vision zero all the categories that came out of the vision zero projects we'll trite to commit those plans together. the neighborhood transportation improvement program was one of the initiatives and it's a call for both providing planning fund one hundred thousand for planning in each district over the years it's meant to help both develop a pipeline of neighborhood projects that are at a later date to our districts you do not go through that but in september we'll talk about that and we have an idea how to

use the planning fund and working closely with the project sponsor particularly with mta and the program has a capital component we're targeting two mid and small and midsize capital projects in the next 5 years 0 those are not the only projects but we're talking about the planning project we have 9 pointed $6 million and that matches other state and federal fund. so diving into the categories the first category 4 of them is the caltrain and the capital improvement those are the state of good repair funds caltrain was discovered by 3 entities and the budget is negotiated so prop k is offsetting the city of san

francisco local match contribution and the approach i'm going to flip we're going to take is to match the capital programming at santa clara and the transit plans so it fascinates the troy partners every year and this is the state of good repair not san francisco specifically but the thought signals excuse me. customer information at the different stations. transit enhancements this the the category that has the category of the competitive parts we've got slides proposed for the next 5 years you see the 22 philip extension with the mta their going to get is an application i want to point out

the fort mason the names in the expenditure plan it's the search-and-seizure wrote a provision that prop k can only provide $52 million and the rest of the fund come from the park services. as a condition of the funding proposed this is funding that will start in 2015- 2016 for the conceptual engineering and mta will be the project sponsor our recommendation is we have an operational analysis for the operation cost benefit and funding plan in order to to the decision makers about different transit extensions. so transit enhancement is one of the few categories we've got a little bit of money for expansion most the vehicle money is for replacement of our existing fleet you can see there's a little bit of money to get more of the historic cars available to improve service on

the f line. another category that is for the commission supervisor avalos is the station project there's a number of place holders to implement some of the projects that bart and muni have been implemented and some of the studies that have identified potential changes to the ramp the southbound ramp portions. and the cac comments the funding for the caltrain station so in the next 5 years the funding for the connection our road that was part of the package of project to make sure that when caltrain replaces the bridge there's funding for the next oakland study and this category like many of the others you can see

the place holders is over one million dollars and it's the capital projects we've identified the last one is the new and upgraded street if so a mix marsh but the stabilization on the highway project and a lot of the improvements on the 19 corridor helping to landscape helps the people not park on the sidewalk and some of the signal improvements. some of the things in the capacity there's additional funding for the 19 avenue project. there's caltrain refarsz and walk first and the water project and the sewer project going on this is a big deal and trying to coordinate the construction on the community. there's a dpep will get money back from the from
