introduce before you get into the 3 machine substantive items first convey i think that things took a leadership that started in this room and it's been picked up bid boards and commissions around the city and fully embraced by the mayor we've made progress and additional supported from the november election we have been working very closely with the other city departments and the executive branch as well as the ta and external stakeholders to take the concept of dissolutions and make it city policy and make that part of what we do and how we do our business and the mayor has not only appointed someone to lead efforts from his office but personally been involved

bringing together me and my colleagues to make sure we're focused and coordinated to execute i feel like we've gone from where we started at the good friend of mine i beginning of the year but something that maybe felt like that was a stretch goal or something maybe folks were certain what was obtainable to a point we're. >> aligned with the stakeholders feeling this is now, it's not a stretch goal but city business in the how we're designing our streets and outreach and enforcement efforts and reilly working towards this goal in a meaningful way i think we're making go very good progress at this point it is

never as fast and the mayor or i would like or the fellow department heads that but the staff st. is working hard to advance vision zero doing things differently than in the past and so we can achieve the goal of zero traffic fatalities i've fafkd our director tim maguire to lead the effort in cooperates with the other city agencies you'll be hearing from him and him as a our new director as sustainable streets this is his priority to make sure we're implementing and realize the vision of vision zero i appreciate the work that you're

doing many this committee and your leadership to support of the work we'll continue to need their support and i'll give more detail thank you for your leadership through the mayor and his departments the departments the public works and planning and police department and all the others agencies we're full steam ahead on vision zero i'll leave you in good hands to walk you through those 3 items. >> thank you director reiskin i want to recognize the new director of sfmta sustainable streets tom maguire. >> thank you, commissioners it is great to be here this afternoon that is the absolutely

number one priority 2014-2015 for the mta we've got a broad range of materials we'll be starting with tim pitching for megan he'll be talking about the research about the refined high energy network it is an important data many undermines the strategy and you'll come back and talk about the engineering product delivery and the education underway and talk about some of the policies o policy rules we have that be coming out of the vision zero task force over the next couple of years with that, i'm going to turn it over to timothy talking about the new data natural lyrics. >> good afternoon,

commissioners timothy with mta unfortunately megan can't be here she has a home situation i'm going to go over the updates the network which we've made tremendous progress a couple of years ago just quick you background in 2011, we started working on gathering the data on the resources and we went from intersection data to the correlation with crossroads there's on overlap of neighbors one thing we saw we added in some additional data that come in that includes the various modes as they came available like the corridors we recently

added last spring one thing we've found is while we see the fatalities between vehicles and people the fatalities by mode are quite stalk only 2/3rd's felt fatalities are motorist collision so the difference between this and vision zero it is proving street traffic so this is a big shift since the network so what you see now we have the data for pedestrian vehicle to pedestrian collisions and fatalities we have motorcyclist collisions and bicycle there are 12 percent of street miles that is not that

many still a high concentration of the streets that equalities one hundred and 25 miles from the goal of 13 of those miles you saw three-quarters regardless of the modes the traffic collisions it is a focused allocations we have in the city can you ask a quick question i want to make sure i said 12 percent of our streets or 70 percent of people and vehicles have severe fatalities on 12 percent of our streets. >> exactly exactly yeah, we thought that, too it is of those modes it is still hatch on those particular streets some overlaps but on these corridors

we have our work kit out for us to break down it those are the pedestrian injuries they also have a two-thirds overlap this is a hover lap with the different modes the same thing with bicycling it is fairly concentrated in the same areas with driver passenger and motorcyclists it is concentrated in the urban core area and then lastly the counties of concern the areas that are prominently low income micro populations they generally speak other language other than english and recent arrivals are

experiencing the collisions there's an additional network that is not part of the three-way network we'll be working with caltrain training so good evening, everyone everyone happy new year. >> happy new year. >> my name is richard carranza i'm honored to serve at san francisco skwufth and on behalf of off all of us i extend a cordial welcome and begin this earning presentation and this earners ceremony with the presentation of colors by the gallow junior officer reserve training i'd like to ask everyone to stand for the pledge of allegiance and continue to

board members that are been active in the lead as well as all of you in our past as the board of supervisors and members of the board this is, of course, jane kim and norman lee. >> and our public defender i know that jeff strongly strongly believes in the education foundation for the kids and spend evidence i appreciated your work (clapping) you know, i also see our school board members thank you. the current school board members i have to say as a body of you are the best school board i've ever had and i know you are coming out of great negotiations recently and i just wanted to

staying say thanks for being personality in working with us i compliment to you you will also have a mayor that works with you along with the teachers association and certainly with your superintendent i want to say briefly i had the pleasure of working with hydra for years now before i became and after became mayor i've valued her support not only is she did education advisor but the also family services advisor to my administration and she has the ability to get everybody together in the room whether it's marie sue or chet roar everywhere city college or the leadership council or the ability to spark a comment from a mark ben hoff or the harrison

foundation or some of the others we seek support from she's the one tow another my side as we made presentations to foundations and talked to city departments from the police and fire to human services to our education leaders throughout the education community she's been there for families and children 0 i just want to say on behalf of of my administration thank you, hydra for your wonderful, wonderful work she of course, has a history on the school board let me say this 83 she didn't want to go through another election and i had to look her not eye and do what had been done to me why are you here and what drives our passion in the public sector, of course we

had that conversation and anhiwe renewed what eric did about his vows we renewed our vows to the public and san franciscans in this conversation we restigd the passion in which she served two other terms on the school board that there was even more reason now today to be on this particular board because it is a very hashld board and is a board this is now on the bring of proclaiming the best school district in the united states of america we're proud of that, yes (clapping.) and you know the story is not that that the school board is by itself doing all the work again it is in fantastic collaboration with all of us in the city

and the millions of dollars that are flowing across not only from the city but from the private foundations and the businesses in the city because they have investor confidence in our school district i say this because i know that our middle grades are improving every single day we embrace them the principles and the teachers in those grades will recognize to have the harder jobs of all the grades because we saw the data and building we work make a change but it is not not just what happened in the school but always what we do this this opportunity with the public enrichment education fund and our children's fund it is what we will do together with those members of the
