basically outlines the need for transportation and infrastructure for the solutions for new revenues that could be pursued so, however, most of the funding and discussions have been around the need for highways and roads not so much transit a push from the vehicles local government to bring that into conversation there's been a modest number of bills introduced in the special session i'll go over in a second first of all we're proposing two new recommendations for the legislation from the first is the ab 744 which would relates to eliminating the minimum parking requirements around the in fill areas around the stations and the planning department is supporting this and the section regular bill is

ab 902 basically currently for minors a dwefks program they receive a ticket for a vehicle code things like bikes infractions they county's encourage get education rather than a ticket and the proposal to extend that to everyone for diversion for bikes running stop signs the first is a b x one one that mandates the loans in prior years of transportation fund to general fund the second is ab x one, two is expansion of the authorization for the building in the regular session and finally constitutional amendment x one one protects for transportation revenues if they have passed in the current

session we're recommending a new cigarette time senate package of transportation revenue increases revenue bill 16 and similar x bs one one by senator bell the increase in the new gas tax and a vehicle fee along with other packages this would be a 5 year program again mostly for local highways we are also reading the spot bills in the extraordinary bills session and waiting to get controls hopefully more details. >> what is the probability revenue for sb 16412 r x one one. >> the estimate is one billion dollars two to $3 billion a year ramping up over the 5 years we're working to support the

second amendment for the massive needs for the streets and road but also trends has significant repair needs and hopefully making that permanent not to come back and mark wants to gnaw we'll move forward this summer for the first time. >> thank you. >> we're optimistic and finally recommending two bills sb x one 2 that redirected the cap & trade funds as important to keep it if transit sb puc has the light rail vehicles we're hoping to seek the funding for the sfmta. >> where is it proposed from. >> excuse me. and who is proposing. >> senator hearing officer. >> from. >> i don't know where thank you. >> north bay. >> we think

and finally we're recommending a positions on sb x one we've seen a lot of those bills basically kill the high speed rail by pretending bonds and at the federal level we've been operating under a number of continuing resolution the federal transportation bill we've seen more likely so see them towards the end of the year the senate has introduced a long term 6 year reauthorization bill called redeveloping the vision for the economy or drive as the means it is focused on highways and roads with some new restrictions on percentage of funding for transit good news it does increase the funding for transportation and increases the flexibility that the local jurisdictions have to address its own concerns there

is a recent development they're proposing to eliminate the tiger program that is a competitive funding for san francisco and the region and it will be sad to see that program go away with that i'll be happy to answer any questions. >> thank you. >> good morning tilly chang bart has announced recently the general manager they'll propose to their vote to take a bond to the bay area we're tracking that the bay council did a poll of the arts alameda and contra-costa alameda to see how voters feel about a bond measure to primarily be for maintenance needs but to address operational and other sort future expansion it is our opportunity to weigh in our staff work with these

with the mayor's office and bart itself to better understand what the options are important composing that program now there is a decision to move forward at least a proposal from the general manager in proposing that to her board. >> thank you. >> we'll check in for your guidance on that. >> supervisor kim. >> thank you. i just had a question on that if there's a 3 county bond measure inch not seen 0 one in my time a 2/3rd's plus one vote. >> i'm not sure if we 2/3rd's yeah, i'm told twittered the first thing and cross the 3 counties. >> the county below and santa fe san francisco was super high the average of the 3 and also how many county wasn't participate in that bond. >> i think by agreement san mateo will not and santa clara has contributed on a different basis so the 3 county for this

bond as i understand. >> i understand on a more curious question in general how many counties can participate in a bond measure like that. >> the bart is formed as the 3 sdriblthsd could be as many as the bart district but maybe another regional measure for the bridge tolls all the county in the area. >> and we're trying to get to a press conference downstairs so if we can do a quick response. >> we need the state legislation like the gas tax they'll put it up on the smaller sunset. >> i'll ask enjoy realize were on a time issue. >> thank you very much we can open up for public comment any member of the public

the program and maybe there isn't a lot of persistence. >> a lot in the persistence in the la area and the alameda couldn't and currently seeking a plan for the entire region but the point to be aware of many of the efforts so for in the region either new h o v or a conversion in san francisco it is a bit of a challenge in that the constraint maybe to alternatives that don't necessarily relate to the capacity. >> supervisor kim we can absolutely have another meeting the state of california has been sort of a forer of the state we've seen a lot more implementation of those things

no. 3. >> item no. 3, vision zero progress report. this is an information item. ? >> good evening, commissioners. i am megan with the san francisco department of health and tom maguire of sfmta to give you a brief overview of the progress report included in your paetecs. it includes a number of update and we have some highlights that we wanted to include in addition, to the progress report. we include the op -ed in the san francisco chronicle authored by mr. reiskin we had a site visit from the national highway traffic safety administration. direct craft of the california

office of traffic safety and representatives from the california state transportation agency and a number of other federal, state, as well as our local officials and task force participated in this day-longest. and we were really excited at this opportunity for vision zero to be of interest with respect to how it could be -- what lessons-learned could be translated to other jurisdictions? and also at the federal and state-level. and we really had a great opportunity to have an afternoon workshop, with the task force, as well as these representatives. and out of that workshop was a number of our leads from vision zero initiative facilitated different workshops on topics including funding, engineering, evaluation, and policy. and the findings of this workshop will be summarized in the report that will be given to our federal and state partners, with respect to what can had they do to help us

move vision zero forward? we look forward to sharing that record with you and it will be included in a larger report to be shared with secretary foxed. we're very excited in the last month in a that the san francisco unified school district passed the resolution of bike to school date. >> nice photo. >> and with, that i'm going to turn it over to tom to give additional updates. >> thank you, megan and afternoon supervisorses. we're up to 14 of the 24 projects complete and we painted painted safetea zones along howard street, as well as the very complex pedestrian interval at intersection of 4th and king, alongside the rail tracks there. so we're more than halfway through our goal of 14 in 24 and i believe we have three more projects set to

be complete in the month of june. on the education front, my colleague john knox white is going to be here to give a much more detailed update on what the education strategy is?, but the high-level update, there is now an education strategy we're really excited about what that means to talk to the public in terms of vision zero. i'm going to jump down to the policy piece, to give you an update on assembly bill 1287, the forward-facing transit-only lane enforcement camera bill. this bill is sponsored by assembly member chiu. it has moved out of the transportation committee and it is moving over to the senate. there are a couple of opponents to the bill, primely the triple-as or automobile associations but we're confident that that bill will

keep moving through sacramento. and we are prepared for the legislation to pass. we're prepared to begin implementing the administrative and citation-related infrastructure it's related to january, 2016 for ab 1287. >> on the evaluation and data piece, during this period the vision zero epidemiologist at dph worked with ski key staff from sfmta and our agencies are now coordinating and collecting on a monthly basis a final count of traffic fatalities. we have started publishing them. so that the data is transparent and can be known by the public on an on-time -- online fatality map including up from 2014 to the most

recently completed month. and finally we have a more detailed update on enforcement, that command mannix will be giving. i will turn the presence over to her now. >> good afternoon, supervisors. this slide you are looking at right now shows our collision numbers. and from 2014 to 2015, 1st quarter same time period you can see there is a 56% drop in fatal collisions. the other collisions categories -- four categories in the statewide forum and these are them. we do not generally take a non-injury collision report. so that is why you see four categories. there are up slightly, but down in the most vulnerable number of ped and bicycle collision that. is a positive out of a negative right there.

any questions about that slide? >> why do you think the numbers have decreased? >> we're very early on in this program, the education and enforcement. in 2014 the san francisco police department wrote more citations than in past history. >> i know district one has been really great on that. i'm curious how the other police districts have been? >> i believe that is the next slide. and here -- no, i'm sorry. i have in my pocket i have the entire powerpoint presentation i gave last week to two different bodis that show what each police district is doing. some are up. some are down. there is a myriad of reasons why some are up-and-down. 1st quarter of this year, we had 20 funeral escorts,

numerous dignity visits including the president and 40 citywide events including the bay to breakers that ties up a lot of resources. we're out there protecting the public in the interest of public safety. when we facilitate large events like that. these again are comparison numbers from '14, which again as i said we wrote more citations than we have ever written before. the difference is 600 citations total to year-to-year. to we're down 2% year-to-date. >> i'm just curious for those stats, and going up quite a bit from last year it was going up quite a bit and now it's kind of stagnant. is it a matter of drivers actually paying attention a

little bit more, or is it a matter of the resources for our patrolmen that would give citations or reduced because of other issues? >> i would hope to say it was the first example that you gave, that drivers are learning and not only is the person we're citing being educated, if you want to call it that. the person we pulled over being educated, but everyone that drives past during the encounter with the police officer, hopefully they are being educated as well to obey the law. the second part we are issuing citations. you know since the end of november we have focused on congestion-calming, if you want to call that. oblock in the box south of market area and issued almost 4,000 citations to-date, five days a week. that takes away from our focus on the
