wall a legitimate crossing cars won't are expecting them? extremely short sighted to go through a huge expensive capital improvement plan and not implement the best practices for the short block that is viable for public safety and walkability and we all know another important thing to keep in mind we know that land use changes and our transportation extra is always raising to keep up with the changes we think we should expect for people to walk the location the future we don't know the entry the park will change let's get ahead of that now with at crossing so we don't have to add it later and the pedestrian strategy to open and close crosswalks this does the option we want this to be built right to start thank you. >> thank you.

>> director borden. >> yes. could we get mr. maguire to answer the questions okay. thank you. >> thank you so i think my southern is i walked up and look at the intersection and based on the memos if staff and the drawings i understand the dilatation inclination to not a crosswalk so the medium will run all the way across from the walk it is signed no left turn if you're coming down masonic not supposed to turn into mcallister there's been 4 collisions with the bikes and pedestrian i assume that's car on car. >> from the sfmta thank you

for having me to respond to these questions regarding the intersection of mcallister and ma optimistic the promoted design is on the overhead right here it is right now would have a contiguous medium cross mcallister intersection this is out of the community design from 2008 to 2012 and it was a preferred design 4 staff explored having the crosswalks marked and opened and we looked it a sidewalk design at the intersections you know for the city so we we establish it and have a schizophrenic crosswalks the minimum is 20 people per hour as our memo sites when we counted 4 people crossing at both locations north and south

locations the intersection at the same time 60 people crossing along mcallister we look at the adjacent land use and as you can see from the overhead picture the current sporting facility and looking at the guidelines we drafted did memo and talked with the stakeholders in 2014 as the memo was dated saying we are going to close both legs the crosswalk we came up with the decision after a long process being it is 2016 right now and we take it strongly to actually take the recommendation recommending closing the crosswalk so - >> thank you for that information i do understand that that playing field at usf not mile-an-hour intention to change the uses i believe their going

on a project to redo that playing field it is there are for the long run i'm inclined go ahead and support this but i'll see what my fellow commissioners have to say i understand the rational not open this one i believe there is an elementary school on the street not too far up as well i'm also wondering the way the hill say, i understand that crosswalk can be dangerous at an uncontrolled intersection this will are we intending to put signs no crossing but at the crosswalk. >> right? we'll have the signage to notify the pedestrian. >> if you're a speaker they're short blocks the muni stop is at

fulton three hundred and 50 feet away there is crosswalks and it helps to establish this project the $28 million as far as transit and bicycle safety by having the medium as contiguous to the second sense the crossing of the vehicle crossing for the transit reliability and perhaps bicycle safety. >> okay. >> all right. i am inclined to support this but i'll see what my fellow commissioners have to say if anyone has an opinion >> i - i appreciate walk sf and others brought to your attention as a regular pedestrian there is nothing that is so frault as running into the signs that is a don't cross here as a pedestrian

and i am looking for ways to actually slow down the traffic i feel that traffic moves too fast and anytime we can get and make it so that the traffic is slowed down by a causation or whatever i think we win there is a great hope for the driverless cars everyone will slow down to void indicate tropics the future so with that said, i will wonder in a staff self-we were to pull this out would we calibrate things like indicate tropical the overhead projection or a matter of a

switch - we've been at a 100 percent designs for months so a change at this point will potentially increase the cost of project and delay the actual construction of that along the masonic cord. >> that's much worse. >> as much asand. >> is there a motion?

>> i think all my questions i'll make a motion to approve. >> any further discussion? >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. >> next speaker, please. >> >> 10.2 amends the transportation code division to add a penalty for fair evasions and passenger conduct violations condominium by youth and other non-substantive provisions john is the member of the public that asked that the item be severed. >> good afternoon. i'm john san francisco has also always been a larger city it is so noted in the state but i believe today, i'm asking for the board to recommendation that the muni security that you

take the tag books from them you can't have a run. >> dual procedure here because what is happening you have a private citizen signing off tickets the only one that can sign off a sixth is pofrlz or it is considered squabble harassment and in the city there is a lot of people are plays a dual role as far as we know who the district attorney is and city attorney but do we know who the county attorney is i'm asking you to at of right now to have them pull that tag book because if we're to go come down on kids

you'll have parents coming in here and talking about protesting that will be a major protest you will have no advertising attorneys and has money i'm just giving you the heads up i think that is voices able to pull that tag book the only thing you can do ask them to get off or move to the back the bus you'll have to call the manufacturers to sign off the tickets you're setting users up for a civil suit and go to court later this is why it's not on the front burner. >> motion on this one. >> i'm disappeared in was a press story it was all over the news.

>> by this action it is essential de, am i correct? the citations for those other issues not increasing enforcement but making the enforcement less pen active. >> there should have been security the first time probably on other. >> we actually needed it in state law but last year that allows us before january 1st, we didn't have the authority. >> so a motion. >> so moved. >> second. >> any further discussion? >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> the i's have it. >> ms. bloomer chairman have you dispenses with item 11 and staff asked that item 13 be called ahead of the neck item. >> item has to do with with the contract for the total

abandonment of parked vehicles. >> authorizes the director of director doing business as san francisco auto the amount of time not to exceed $65.4 million for a term ending march 31st with the option to extend up to 5 years 30 years the director to execute the bayshore lease for two 21 to extend up to 5 years and amending the transportation code to incorporate the customer tow storage and related fees and to step up the san francisco waiver provisions to non-san francisco residents. >> director reiskin. >> yeah. mr. chair and director of finance and technology will present. >> good afternoon.

>> thank you that is a simple item i'm going to present it is simply a new contract for our towing services we did a biding process with 3 bids and the current provider auto return won the bid the good news the contract a couple we were recent to reduce the towing fees about 5 percent and we were able to expend the stolen fee waiver fee to everyone so we believe those are very attractive components of this contract and in addition have the cost recovery it is not subsidize by the fairs is we're pleased with the contract and i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> i have the whole team if you have any questions and speakers as well. >> introduce the speakers.

>> yes. mr. chair one. >> mr. gleason. >> good afternoon directors march with the teamsters union i'm here to support the renewal auto return i give you a little bit of background a little bit over 10 years go the predecessor the workers were looking for improvements tlilt it happens the private sector that's what we're talking about here private sector workers at the tow yard we had to work through those and i'm delighted to say that the years since with the autopsy repair coming in and making improvements and improvements certainly in the total environment we presenter working in partnership with auto return to hopefully do something that has not been seen in san

francisco and making improvements in something that people oftentimes not happy to have our members have to deal with the public you know certainly not happy to be conducting a business translation but everyone makes the best of it we're proud to get up and fully support this renewal we have members at mta contracts the private section we're working without source works with the fifth and mission and workers from time example time and working with the folks that are collecting the coins at the parking meters and each one of the projects are difficult but in auto return a very good partnership and happy to see that continue and i the president to say that we are

appreciative of the work with stephen lee and others have done recently and over the years assist the project much better for everyone so thank you. >> board members questioning. >> i'll make a motion but note there is good news what is the decrease the number of twoez over the years that that is amazing 10 years detain thirty thousand a tows due to the information be able made and motion to approve on that good news. >> especially do we pay them and people pay them and they pay us i'm confused how that process. >> the current process is as of today, the customer pays auto return not us we're changing that the new contract the customer pays us we'll pay the

returns. >> i want to clarify the contract looks like that. >> and thank you director for making that strong point. >> do we have a motion and second >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. so ordered. >> ms. bloomer. >> a presentation and discussion and possible action for the focusing 17 and 18 capital budget. >> good afternoon again mr. chair and members of the board this is following up on the presentation that we walked through a few woodworks at the workshop in january and give more information and extort city attorney right to surface some of the ideas not a budget proposal at this point just a reminder of what the bottom line situation looks like and what things we might want to consider adjusting on the revenue and the expenditure side

also looking at a little bit of the capital budget i have a presentation and walk through and want to start off looking at the revenue picture and if we can get the slides up on the screen what you see in terms of revenue this is kind of the big picture of what last year looked like what that this year and the baseline for 2017-2018 okay. so you can see roughly will 20 percent of agencies budget comes from trait fairs and thirty from parking and traffic and from the general fund the major components of the budget so this is just giving you an overview of what we work with again if so baseline essentially means we're doing everything

we're doing today on the expenditure side by category and this shows that a little bit over 60 percent of the agency budget is going into salaries and as you can see it dwaflz all the on the costs including the towing contract you authorized us and looking at it a different way by division sngz it is more than half the budget is forcing the transit division after that it is sustainable streets but is significant attraction that the budget dollars is going to support muni operations so just a reminder of what is the baseline and not and this speaks a little bit to what is driving the changes the base we have included positions

that were added during the last two fiscal years that are forming put into the budget the landmark raises for the first floor and we're using the cpi controllers establishment and the pension there you you've heard about for the city and our budget is the bigger drivers the cost of the base and some contracts you've counterfeited by approved by the board but since you've approved them some additional things that have come up the last few months not yet the base but those are among the things we'll consider adding one a larger than historic or recently historic caltrain tricks debt service for the next revenue bonds that the capital

improvement plan anticipates in 2017 that is for the purchase of the expanded light rail fleet and the higher workers' compensation costs that are here and the transit service increases that the t e p recommended two years ago and rents for a new training facility which we have not yielded yet signed the lease but come to you i believe recently and went to the board of supervisors so just some high-level of things what's in and not on the revenue side we are assuming continuation of the free muni programs for the low and moderate income and people with disabilities the base assumes the automatic indexing of the fairs we'll show you some of those it assumes that the populations general find from baseline

continues that was was it authorized in prop b and it presumes us some increases the development fees that the planning department is projecting based on the development the city and the fees that come to our budget capital use of those fees and it does include some estimates of cap & trade fund from the state and the operations program which is the name of suggest that see used for operations other cap & trade funds that are part of the capital budget as well we search warrant we don't have yet not the base the base is not presuming fund balance we talked about we will anticipate having significant for fined balance maybe double the policy that it

requires 10 percent the operating budget we're closer to 20 percent so right now it is close and didn't assume any other potential revenue sources so when we boil that down it is the numbers of the next slide shows we have very modest shaufltz if every year on the billion dollars budget the range of 13 to $14 million and driven by expenditures for revenues and parts of the positions we at in part of the pension costs and other contracts so looking at the revenue sources that the automatic indexing in terms of affairs and bans our policy so the base assumes those some are higher and some lower this is a picture for you have what the fairs will

do and the board acts differently terms of fee under these not every fee but the more noteworthy ones fairly significant fee increases that is based on a combination of the cost recovery methodologies or cpi increase we used the cost increase methodologies based on the actual costs plus the agency overhead and in some cases the overhead will in the differ including the pension and others issues you'll see many of these have big jumps they're adjusted to the cost recovery through the cpi calculation the baseline assumes these are as presented

to the extent we want to raise or lower any that will impact the revenue picture but the cost recovery we can't raise them higher than the 100 percent due to prop 26 so nevertheless of some ideas we started dui at the workshop this is not an careful list but some of the ideas we've discussed and some dollar figures and just the footnotes on the bottom the caveat we need to perform a title 6 that the civil service requires the recipient we evaluate the impact to different populations the city so we'll need to before we make thai increases and go over bugged doing a title 6 analyze and our cfo wants to us add direction from the board the fury analyze

we do it is labor doesn't even and 7, 8, 9 doesn't even so just to guess quibble through those to change the definition of muni that entitles you been to a discount fair and right now actually for the free muni 5 to 18 but the program we define it to 17 and got a lot of feedback we were doing the free muni for youth kids turn 17 in high school i've been talking about with any colleagues other than the region to standard device our fairs karate's region and bart youth is 5 fee telephone and some 6 and some 18 we've agreed as a arraign to pursue the prioritization the definition to be 5 to 18 which for us means

raising the top level from 167 to 18 has an adverse revenue impact the teenagers that are be paying full fair will be paying discount this is a policy that is consistent with the other things we're doing in terms of of making muni assessable to youth particularly those in school the second one on the list is to adjust - to reduce the amount of discounts we provide to youth, seniors and people with disabilities and in the advisory committee of the fact that board has made riding muni free for people in those categories that are of loss and moderate income there is a justification for the fairly steep discount by about two-thirds the few fair folks in those categories and so, now that those are lower

and moderate income nothing reasonable to consider asking the rest to pay a less discounted rate the thirds one on the list would be to establish a $0.25 premium for riders that are paying in cash in order to inner incentive the clipper card i think you know the issues with pga cash in terms of the back up at the farebox and the more cash out of the system the better we will have to pay attention to to within not having a disprorments - at least one other thing for typewriter in those region many around the country and world have done to incentivize people not to use cash a few others one is to there the

vendors commissions to make it more trophy position for the vendors to carry ore products like maps and consent calendar today the next one is one that is not a new one but the recognition that the express service that muni provides is a different entire level of service and this is the via the concept of attaching a premium for those services likewise for the a pass the muni plus bart and muni san francisco pass raising it to further the index provides for would be an idea it is fairly significant value to riders to use bart in san francisco the last one on the page will be

to provide a discount vauvenlt to the lifeline discount for low income adults to provide that same discount to city and nonprofit agencies who purchased tokens and pays for low income populations from the feedback from the public and last thing i mentions on the revenue sources i believe there are some taxi fee waivers the board has previously adopt or included some the baseline and ultimately with the recommendation that some speakers under public comment mentioned, i.e., wanted to point out those are some of the potential revenue changes on the expenditure side those first two are really what john halley discussed with you a couple weeks ago the first thing to put forward the additional 2

percent service there with 10 percent in the current budget recommend 12 percent so this is the balance remaining two percent we've not yet can you think by the end of this fiscal year the second bucket is a collection of a number of different things all kind of within the theory of performance enhancements of the muni system it is a number of different things some of which have a more direct connection but all things that kind of from a wish lift are things investments we wanted to be able to make to improve the performance of muni the next one is vision zero education i spoke in any director's report about the capital projects moving forward we've talked about some of the enforcement the past if

sustainable streets to the police department the education is one that is the half-hearted to secure grants for this is a proposal to have money the operating budget to really sustain more of an education program, i.e., over the vision zero the next one has to do with with maintenance of much of the extra we're increasing putting the streets and working a lot more striping and signage and putting in for traffic signals, and so this is a request to essentially increase the maintenance budget for the folks that are responsible inform maintain all that as you recall a number of years ago four years ago, we we were audited by the controller's office that found that we were not at the time, equality investing in the maintenance and since then added a lot of

facilities to this is an idea to have our ability to maintain some of those and the last one on this slide is really about kind of the expansion of our demand based pricing model we employed through the process as well do a number of complimentary things to that some of which carry costs moving to the next slide i'm not going to do go through all but surface the ones that the other smaller agencies put forward those are mostly the behind the scenes things by things nevertheless, important in terms of being able to increase our hiring input through this meeting of safety improvements and the federal government is

putting in basing place a good direction for safety and transit but more work by the staff and having more taxi investors investigators to deal with what is happening and the investments in security and staffing our store rooms we've got more parts that's a good thing and staffing up and even more focused on outreach that is when a controversial item comes before you we don't hear how good or bad our outreach process is this provides for outreach for the many kinds of capital and other projects that we deal with so those are some of the ideas on the revenue and expenditure side i don't know if you want to paused now for discussion or keep on going and wait to the end. >> i'd like to go to the ends

and have public comment and then discussion. >> okay. >> just a few slides to respond to things that came up during the workshop one what work orders their work orders that we have with other city agencies the different kind of categories of service that you see shown on the slide this is the history that is fairly flat compared to the growth of the overall budget on the last item we're not spend $10 million a year to support the traffic companies the mayor took that out the rest are largely things services we're buying and sharing the costs of the rise over the cost of time the next slide gives us a picture of the fund balance so again on at billion dollars bunt the policy requires one

million dollars worth of funds balance with us the projection is over 200 and thirty so this gives us more than one million dollars dollars above the fund balance we could spend in this budget for operating or capital and recommend capital but still maintain the boards 10 percent possess eaten the final follow-up slides this came in with relationship of the idea of cash premium or premium of $0.25 or some level for people to pay cash versus clierp that is a higher percentage of low income folks that pay by cash not a huge difference cross the income spectrum but one that he well have to study very careful and probable make some extraordinarily efforts to make

sure that low income people are not disprorms entangled should the board go forward with a cash differential those are follow-up items on the operating budget and then quickly on the capital budget a much new view you've seen here are the main drivers i'll not read those things that koirment into the 5 year window and try to capture the best we can projecting the future grants whether formula or discretionary this is symsomewhat of their projection we could our best - the next slide with the exception of the strau along the process that is a good thing more or less a funding picture so on the mine categories of

safer streets and state of good repair the levels are consistent where they are the 5 year cpi it changes because we have some much rendering with the central subway that is less in the current cpi the next the breakdown of what the $2.9 billion dollars looks like and as you can see the largest chunk is fleet as we complete the rough fleet replacement and start rail the light rail fleet replacement and the straw remains a big cushion but the streets what used to be separated into bike and pedestrian safety and others projects are delivered together that's in one bucket now, one of the more sixth parts the capital

budget and the transit guide way that is basically, the state of good repair of the transit system the rails and signals and swichlz and the overhead wires this is generally the way the picture look at the moment sgriven driven by the funding source for the skyway we get the funding for the sprau we can't use we're committed to the volunteers or voters we can spend the prop a general go bond funds not a ton of discretion between the two categories and one thing if i didn't say it right now this is going to anticipate the next two review measures that were recommend by the mayor's task force the

license mission fee in the 2017-2018 as we develop the cpi and the discussions about what might or not on this november other than 2018 ballot change the cpi review to incorporate both of those the next slide just slow in some of the large categories what the projects might look like these are the ones for the first and foremost currently undergo the capital improvement plan development process and the kinds of things that you will see as we bring forward did capital budget which will be bringing forward the 2 year and cpi asking you to consider the operating budget between now and april that slide shows transit and now kind of some of the miscellaneous other category so

of these are well development and ready to go this give us an idea as you recall the spreadsheet was vast to give you a essence 0 so it concludes the presentation not a recommendation painting the picture of the current landscape and talking about expenditure and the operating budget mainly to seek your and the public's facebook i don't know if i want to pass it or include it we have the next rest of the process that we'll be undergo and sharing and going to the cca not just in this room for feedback. >> decorations if you ask clarifying questions i'd like to

hear them and move on to public comment before we give our feedback anybody clarifying questions can we go to public comment. >> one speaker indicated an interest herbert wiener. >> a few more it is rumored. >> herbert wiener point of clarification my understanding is when prop a a was passed fair increases were contingent about the muni performance which is clearly not been the case and i believe that was passed by the voter in 2000 so before you raise any fairs or do any of the fair restructuring you have to see that legally capable what was passed for years this is going on where

there are increases but nolo contendere have an opportunity increase in service this is staring the public the eye everyday thank you, mrmr. wiene >> next speaker. >> >> a couple of items disabled fair 50 percent is tough disabled senior is tough no increase in the cost of living from the federal and everything is going up you're not under yet you don't feel the crunch 50 percent is a hard number one number and caltrans it is bart i

don't want to say impoverished teenagers have a problem hoping over fences or trying to over gates transportation the city and the bay area needs to be free to even people not free but people that will i am poeshd needs to be able to ride we don't need them to feel like they've illegal that's important the new buses we're getting rattled just as bad as the old busy of the on 989 and 044 whatever the new numbers they rattled on van ness like anything else we should be able to build a rattle free bus okay. so at least in the beginning they're one thousand-year-old and the rider from the shuttle 8

thousands of them they should have a muni pass that would be a nice increase on the taxis i see taxis up there but no uber or lyft and i remember that gavin newsom what we have the crash is muni riders $2 and some odd cents but really $6 i'd like to know what it is now. >> thank you. >> that's the last person that turned in a speaker card. >> one more. >> thank you good afternoon peter straus with the san francisco trait riders a few quick comments first of all, we're in support of dpaeven the cash and clipper fairs and position that as a clierp discount rather than a surcharge with respect to the bus fairs i

have concerns but not taken a position yet i wanted to note that the main thing i want to observe though i can't help noticing that the revenue sources identified are all on the side of transit riders and even on the expenditure side a number of manufacture which are really driver related but management fees and the vision zero and the sustainable streets no revenue sources that are identified that is entirely inappropriate i think that come up with someone i hope you'll consider the sunday parking rates i'll add that perhaps he did we support full fines you might consider discounting that and maybe that will make that or some of the fire stone we had

last time but sunday need to be considered and other measures towards our riders not just transit riders are put in place. >> thank you, mr. straus. >> like control back. >> all right. so as mr. ed reiskin said this is the second time this is before us and so that would be good if we could get input from the directors any feedback from director reiskin or the layouts director borden would you like to start. >> no i'd like to wait. >> okay director reiskin please. so i of the wondering if such a nerdy question not the breakdown is the debt service for the -

are those somebody explain like what bonds are and why it is not the base is that optional or something we've not issued where is that. >> so those are for bonds we've not issued we've done 3 series off issuance between 2013 and 2012 and 2014 that next proposed issuance is in 2017 if we include that and approve that as part of capital budget we'll put that in some things railroad were not in the base because the timing when the third floor they came that we again include them some of the things we absolutely have to accommodate we'll be recommending the 2017 issuance because that is a big part of how we fund our light rail vehicle fleet we're fully committed to we'll incorporate the debt services for the 2018

services into the second year of the operating budget and subsequent years. >> go ahead director borden. >> can you, you remind us of the fair bus. >> the last data i saw around thirty percent so that $2 to have dollars is probably close to i don't know if we have any more data. >> sorry to contradict it used to be thirty but close to 27. >> what's at national standard. >> it depends on. >> so you know from rail operating and right-of-way we don't have to rail operating to bus it kind of comes down the stretch i believe we're certainly lower than bart for the right-of-way and higher than than the transit the bus system

closer to the muni lines and get a a benchmark if you like but given the system and the operational kind of challenge of the system it is respectedable but for the high ridership the fairs are low royalty to other fairs in the country. >> whether or not to include fairs we're looking at that number we can't continue to i mean, i mean we can't a charge the true costs but not too far away it is problematic so i think we've done a lot of things for the population if we can increase the fairs it make sense people are willing to do ridership and taxis shows that people are willing to spend more money to get to places more quickly so i think that is important we - in order to

increase our services to have the fees. >> director ramos. >> thank you, ma'am vice chair you. >> i have a couple of comments i think that starting with the premium service i want to echo what peter said earlier i also have concerns with how that plays out in the long run you know the brt lines could be considered an premium survivors some people make at cases the rails are premium services and i in seeing the way the premium services played out with ac transit and their transbay service that divides the ridership the way the political decisions with made how their spent and the riders get their

seats it gets analyst i didn't to see that i know they did that a la it is an awkward place to go if we can we would like to avoid that accept well, two reasons one i'm under the impression the premium service is for quotes and less to operate it is lens less wear and tear and the refinery for xhourments it is cheaper to run that i'd like to do more of that and you know not get the impression that the office maybe i'm wrong but where to go if in direction learn will o more about that and also want to echo what peter's building department the whole you know - what you said director borden's about covering

the true costs cars are i'll be the one to say this i'm the bad guy they really do create a town hall on the system and streets and everything else and our transit i don't believe that their making their fair share speaks for itself around parking and not just sunday metering or should say only sunday metering but the evening and in the morning hours i know i've heard from merchants and other folks that they did like the sunday meters they didn't like it at first but their opinion changed after the benefits a terrific opportunity for revenue generation if we do it in a way that is in conjunction with the support of low and behold community we do it in sections and zones the way we the accident it or doing it and what

have you i say this because i'm not convinced at all that cars do pay their fair share for the using our streets and effectively costing the city by way of parking and transit people that are taking triumphing trirlt transit are doing the right thing and not reside to speaks for itself punish them by raising the fairs we're not raising fairs on people that are driving cars we should be trying to cover the cost of fairs of providing services first of all, it is not impossible but i know that keeping transit affordable is for people to be able to live the city the cost of live living in the city is up-and-up and up the way we save people in terms

of transportation to live here we wanted to see on inclusive city if we have the good conversation we can raise the fairs for everyone or most of us at least or we can make cars pay their fair share of the impacts on the city and transit and that might not come from parking it might come from i mean meters but residential parks permits we're supposed to say we're covering the costs of operations and what have you but look at the real impacts of having cars on the streets unregulated and what are the impacts of that so - i think to believe that if we reality truly understood the true costs that cars have on our system we would

be more inclined to raise the fees for parking and operating a car in the city as opposed to raising the fairs of people 0 who are just trying to do the right thing by taking transit to the environment and the management of congestion and using the limited that is a there is no so much transit riders are doing and that might actually include garbage charging higher rates at garages as well as on something i will if we can justify the costs of the impacts that that cars are having on the streets i think that people are more inclined to acknowledge that and pay our fees so we don't have to pass the fees onto the people that can at least forward to pay the higher costs

director nolan i want to go next it is nice going after any fellow direction you raised the questions and helped me think about that a little bit more i want to run through some of the specific things first i think that the change in the youth definition i do support i think setting the discount fair at 50 percent i support as well, having the cash fair go up looking at higher than the fair media fair i don't know i'm still worried about that with only abused of our breakdown of income of the riders and the number we heard either at our full day workshop thirty percent of our residents live in poverty but 51 percent of riders live in poverty it feels that one feels scary to me i don't want to

penalize the lower income riders the vendor commission i will support, the raising the prices on the express or premium service i'm with director ramos i feel that that feels difficult because of what premium you know when we get our bus rider at the time of trial in yeah, that one i don't like it the a pass yes raising bart and the token i'll support as well one clarifying question director reiskin when we had the slide of the things not in base i assume we're not assigning them a base because we're not sure page 13 we're not sure of what we're going to do with those yet and that's why we don't see a dollar amount i'm

worried about that this is somewhat fighting and modest gap will get much bigger. >> it varies in some cases the dollar amount we know and some we do and again, we didn't have a dollar amount established ensue point next time we come back not in the base needs to be for considerations we'll make sure to bring the dollar values and in terms of the revenue side more of a policy we used if any and how much potential revenue and on the expenditure side we can bring our best guess of dollars amounts. >> when we talk about the fund balance slides 24 i support dipping both that modestyly in coping the guidelines and to get to the pot point that director borden's and director

ramos made and one of the public commenters i think what i'm starting to feel and your alluding to it is a feeling we're down the road of a double standard in fairs for our rider passengers but not appropriately politically parking management policy for the car driefdz we've talked about the driver deficiency we bring down the costs in operating that transit i'm sure you've all been an streetcar that is parked behind a car in the evening or sunday morning i sat on this someone ran into to get money and we sat there and doushth is rampant we can percentage manage that i'd like to see us take into account

to look at the parking management policy we have i could fairs for the riders but i think our cap per hour for sf park and the meters has been flat for 5 years didn't seem right if we are capped out for 5 years on what went up charge and yet demand has imploded and double parking we need to look at that as good parking policy that helps us meet the other goals not only revenue as well we still have is from the last time to the board of supervisors to get approval on new parking meter i believe we kicked that cap we have no more new parking meters to add in the city yet

the city continues to change areas that probably divert to the meters. >> like my apartment i live along the n judah line that whole n judah street a parking lot and people drive in and jump in and are gone all day it is not right. >> yeah. >> so it is if i look at this we have great ideas and a great start i'll starting to wore we have a double standard verse what we expect from the paying riders verse what we are doing the parking management policy to not to our point bring up combats impacts those people are having when we park and double park and when we find a meter and not find a meter i'm hoping we can take into account as we moved on this and let me just

run through here make sure i didn't miss anything. >> monopoly i think outside the box is all the feedback. >> one more little point you know the conversation will clipper versus cash and providing a clipper discount what it it makes you feel better i'm happy to talk about that but i do feel to that encouraging people to again do the right thing by getting a clipper card your benefiting everyone for me as sort of like it is a handicapping to get a clipper card but load it up in the walgreens or machines it is a benefit to everyone so including yourself your get to where you're trying to get to faster so i awhile i also appreciate

the analysis and think this is important we do the weather title 6 obligations feel that if we were all an clrpdz we would all benefit from it and i think that that will be despite it having some you know being a little bit more challenging for some of us to have a clipper card folks should make an effort the returns where tremendous they benefit everyone including cash paying consumers. >> i will like we'll have to really push to get those kind of late adopters of clipper card and make that does mean raising the cash fair and clearing the clrpdz fair by 6 months or something so one of the indexes and i agree we need to do it but

really hard for me when i look at the cash payers the idea of putting that extra burden i was that person out of college feeding dimes and nickels into the slots so. >> i wanted to add i wanted to say i remember my previous comments be miss instructed the - and i'm absolutely in favor of the increasing the parking fees and the garages have no issue think; right what we've seen as we increase the parking ticket we get to the place where everyone is taking the transit we still have the same problem there is ultimately it is look an affordability issue can we afford to maintain the system the way we need it to run and, you know, we can't rely on - we

have to be able to have it good enough that everyone wanted to get rid of their car but i don't own a car i've not owned one my adult life it is a delicate balance it make sense to raise fees where there are opportunities to raise fees there is obviously political issues around adding more parking and sticker areas we saw how that went down the hate and in the commercial and increasing more meters there is a balance we have to strike but at the same time, i think a lot of these things make sense in terms of of what we can do and explore other things from partitions is make sense and everything should be on this table but an issue the premium service issue does strike me as - i cannot afford

to pay more money. >> i think that you know looking at investigating o two tier services are questionable so thank you. >> thank you for your clarification. >> jim the unbalanced issue kcmo i don't know if you discussed it but director reiskin this is a policy matter for the board there are actually things that gives us an treerld opportunity i'm focusing on paratransit their facilities in san francisco in brisbane or some place as the vehicles so some of the vehicles have older and need repair i'll be interested in a list be prepared for the board for things we can do and certainly in the get rid of of the entire thing but have an

opportunity the more concrete things we can do in my mind people can actually see so i don't know from the staff is thinking about in at all but maybe i'll appreciate that. >> absolutely i agree i think that is a great opportunity i'll not recommend use of it for plugging the gaps as ongoing costs but discussed and workshop i think that is a number of criteria such as those you suggested making great candidates and it would be irresponsible to sits on this cash and not putting some of it so use acknowledging the fact the committee is it not going to continue at this rate and we definitely want to have a cushion but not have a million cusp. >> have you thought will a

process for a hierarchy or making decisions and so at the workshop we had back in january, i noted down a number of criteria it was recommending we consider for use of funds balance so i've been going through the capital budget and particularly looking at those things that are not fund i've been kind of scoring those in terms of the criteria and incidental i have a pretty good sized list i'll bring it to the next time on the agenda and putting ideas based on what i understand the criteria's. >> so caltrain is not in there i guess. >> the increase is not in here.

>> not the base because of the baseline we didn't have the question and not confirmed that request and certainly we've entered agreement with the 3 counties of the share of the contribution and ma to i'll recommend it is. >> the article in today's paper the high speed rail comes this way instead of la first so maybe a whole lot maybe to look at that so speed up the electric fiction process the plan for the next potential mayors task force recommended revenues we are trying to create space for the reasonable bart

and caltrans they have needs beyond mayor current resources need this particular issue is doing that for the support. >> if they are serious about coming this way first, we'll be more abusive aggressive in the assistance not just us the other counties as well. >> right director ramos. >> yes, sir. >> excuse me. director. >> thank you. >> i believe this - yeah. >> sorry. >> so i just wanted to for the next go around the come back on the budget i was wondering i support the proposal to bring to market-rate or discount fairs to the disables but i support that because i have great background

information from the staff compared to other agencies as far as the downtown rates as the demographic information for the discounts offered through point programs for the fee funning e muni so i guess i think that so you would a controversial item you look at the data behind it is the not controversial it will be great to have the information i think that it is out the public before just so the public has that. >> to clarify on the earlier discussion who is paying and so we are by board policy what is the baseline it is increasing by inflations or cost recovery fees and finances all of the park through the marking fines and the transit fairs so it is somewhat across the board approach on the revenue and

expenditure parking management and more muni service was one of the ideas we're not trying in this proposal to have those ideas having a double standards or one verse the other i'll remind you it the fair policy you put in place before i got here was one of the things that supported our high credit rating and the good credit ratings the agencies don't have this we've dei cannot and large stuck to it in 2010 it is kind of a financial managed best practices anything we consider will be mindful of that i just want to refresh the boards memory for the in relation couple of months but when it comes time to issue

the 2017 gap one of the things we've deemed our strength and resources and the policy we can for the cost increase. >> absolutely. >> which is why generally speaking across the board your fines will increase as well as don't policy reasons to change that and muni is one one that deadequacy but be that as it may a good policy we should support. >> just to be clear i don't have a policy are indexing it could be everything that costs more so it is you know gas costs more unusually and probably cost more costs of medical benefits goes up and everything goes up i appreciate the index and i take issue with what vice chair brinkman man all things are not

i could like the parking meters and opportunity to index other impacts on costs on the system overall so this is what the point i was trying to make. >> thank you director reiskin you remind me that sf park is sort of it's only form of indexing and as w look towards rolling that out that will be you know it is demand based so it's on indexing that brings me back to the fact if we have a cap on the hourly rate some sort of limiting our index for the sf park we have a de facto cap on the number of parking meters regardless how the city changed since that again, we're de facto limiting the ability to index to our point to kind of charge a

fair share of the impacts of someone having on the streets when they park and double park all right. any more observations commissioners no okay this was not an action item at this point so i building we'll move move on to the last item on the agendas the replacement of wireless facilities on the managed real estate assess this the requirements for the review process for the communication and antenna and productive the form communication size installation of the communication innocent antenna. >> what is the subject we love it so m much. >> good afternoon sally cfo so this item before you is a we're asking approval for a template

for our wireless equipment on the garages we have been before you on the same thing on the equipment on the poles so we're trying the same thing on the garages we've been working on this project for over two years with various wireless companies that hopefully, will be in agreement with us at this point but essentially we have received combating input over two years and revised the document we revised the rates and lowered our rates since before you to be maufrtd and worked with the - with the other city departments including real estate department or rec and park the port so we feel strongly that the document of the item before you has been scrubbed and rescrubbed we have incorporated many of the

provisions that the wireless companies have requested to the ability we could and some of the items we couldn't incorporate bus their contemporary to the city's lease or not supportive of the agencies best practices so i'm happy to go through a pipeline if you wish but maybe you'll want to hear the wireless companies up to you. >> maybe i mean, i'll issue one of the - this document that speaks to the rates and how we compare so this table basically summarizes what we believe. >> on page 4. >> sorry page 4 we believe where we are compared to the rest of the market to the board of supervisors approved a lease

for the last month the last hours we feel comfortable we'll done our due diligence we came back down. >> directors don't police log have any clarifying questions before we go to public comment no can we please have public comment. >> two members of the public that submitted speaker cards. (calling names). >> hello members of the public board members i'm with the law firm representing verizon wireless we appreciate the new things with the staff i've been rep verizon and this is a long journey and my client and staff has spent hundreds of hours and tens of thousands of dollars negotiating that i wish i could stabbed before this board and say any client supports the

agreement they've spent tons of money and the rates are not comparable if you look at the last chart you'll notice that the comparables are all the government entities we deal with private leasors those rates are astronomical i've recommended this for 25 years and negotiated literally thousands of documents in northern california and obviously including san francisco and never seen rates like this from the board want to achieve the revenue and wants to encourage the carriers i recommend the board continue this matter and let us continue the negotiation i do presenter with the staff we met to negotiate we had our xhashts and have a civil discussion, however, no progress

i do recognize the staff has reduced the rates but simply not significant enough i ask the board to consider a continuance so we can continue negotiations. >> >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> >> eric. >> hello thank you for having us. i'm eric i'm a real estate manager for verizon wireless i'll start by that's why this was nice on the pricing structure than we started two years ago we ask you to t you continue this one of the rates you're going to propose i can only speak on behalf of the verizon what you'll be paying your structure puts us over the thresholds not only that but puts in the position every time i modify a verizon site i come to you it is over the thresholds

that allows matt to work so in order for you guys to maximize the revenue i suggestion suggest you come into a market-rate as opposed to this high rate your detour business i have two properties with mta but the rate structures you're looking at which i what i get in the private sector i can get a justification of packing up and rebuilding somewhere else within this 7 or 8 years for a 15 year term didn't make economically sense for verizon to stay not only that but the modification terms and agreement to maximize revenue but maximize the efficiency on the team not

requiring an amendment every time i understand due diligence necessary and proceed to you structures and studies that shows we're within the lease premises but a simplification of the process and simplification of the terms will be much better. >> thank you. next speaker. >> it's the last person that turned in a speaker card. >> wait one more. >> anything else that wishes to turn in a speaker card. >> thank you. >> teddy. >> thank you good afternoon director nolan and members of the commission i'm teddy the regional vice president for at&t i'm here along with our outside council tom newsom to ask you to continue this item and instruct staff to work with the carriers

to come up with lease terms that we can all work with it is not unprecedented two years ago we entered into a contract lease with the garage and came to terms on all the items we're asking for mta to consider working with us on and we value our relationship with mta we want to continue to put our facilities on mta properties unfortunately with the lease term that have been presented to us we're not going to be able to do that it maintained only a couple of hundreds thousands of of dollars a year for mta our ability to service our customers without the restrictions that are in this lease are paramount to our success so we're asking for a little bit more time and a

little bit more diagnose diagonal to create a leases that works for the carriers. >> thank you. >> last speaker that turned in a speaker card john newman. >> honorable chairman chairman and commissioners i'm john newman one of the at&t outside council i've had the privilege of documenting agreements with over 20 years now with various departments of the city and county we've pioneered many of the agreements and found the solutions with the mta you've seen corporations we went through the issues we're concerned about in our record here today with the sfmta staff and this board a copy of that lease which i'd like to put in the public record is lombard street garage that

agreement provide a a great deal of control for your staff to content to the changes to equipment provided a reasonable pricing model at&t does have discrepancies about the pricing model and it if were adopted our directions from the radio frequency team to immediately consider relocation of our facilities once the existing portfolio expires a direction for the tenure that no new sites will be considered open sfmta property that's a current direction of our client we don't want that we prielgd the recipients with the city and want that to continue but needs it have equitable terms we can work with the main concern is the modification provisions and i believe there are lawyers on the

commission the use of word sole discretion which means the staff can be arbitrary and capricious in way the changes are allowed to our facilities those changes are invisible and unfortunately, if it we don't have reasonable certain we'd like to not have that. >> thank you. we'll scan the documents and provide them to the board was that our last speaker and protect. >> madam chair. >> ms. booze i have one question i am going to depend on our research about the fair market-rate what was the issue the access. >> certainly so right now the way the language is written in the contract if one of the providers wants to make a change to the infrastructure they must

ask our staff for approval one of the concerns that the parking team has they going you know the filed we wouldn't know about it so that is one change they go up there and make changes to the lease they'll have to inform us and let us know as to our authority. >> but not your intent to be arbitrary and capricious. >> not you usually. >> not me the parking father and mother that makes that determination. >> okay. thank you. >> yes. director borden and then. >> so there was an issue about the fair market-rate of the private sector did we look at all what people are paid on private property. >> we could as much as we could couldn't get the data but talked to the real estate director of the city he feels

comfortable the rests are compatible to the private segmented we looked at verizon providers their rates conversationally and say they're close to what we're recommending so mr. graph was not here from the parking department and he's feeling comfortable we're within the market. >> the other question in terms of how you choose to go by antenna one of the things the city works there is a preference one through 7 in terms of what the preference one site and another site and preference one site is a site that has wireless mntsdz that are appreciable to location with the antennas proposing less of that so i was wondering why you choose to direction it divulges people. >> our model was complicated in terms of pricing we have a

variety of equipment and long table of pricing structure trying to simplify and not the calculations so our team came up with looking at the market 3 leases were the average of the leases in our property that and that's where we established our market we double checked that with the city department i mean, i'm a little bit concerned to make that negotiate expensive to the co-go location it a a detrimental and the issues that happens the neighborhood if they can't find a public place for a mountain. >> you know other right arm so it becomes more problematic the other issue is where he because of topography of the city makes it difficult you have to cite the antennas i mean they're much closer and they are different

all companies and another issue that is not for us to debate but the pricing structure will decrease the use of multi citing and not pricing ourselves of this review revenue. >> i understand director borden but we feel comfortable that you know we don't believe this is discouraging for example, sprint has not concerns they've been establishing leases so given the other verizon wireless there are other concerns but - >> i don't know with what else to say on that issue. >> director nolan. >> anything to gain by a slight delay this this from your prospect. >> we've been working on that for two years and can't go to

the city we've run the race and not sure if they'll have a different okay. by delaying it from our side. >> thank you. >> can i ask. >> director rubke. >> so with respect to the companies that are here and the changed language and the discussion of over staff i'm wondering i totally understand what your significantly not planning on withholding capricious arbitraryly so with that in mind why not will tougher language in the clause i hear you've been working o on to but wondering is there a reason it - specific proposals they've brought forward that are problematic in terms of the prargz. >> i'll defer to tom if you want to speak to the parking garage we're following the

template in the port language our city attorney what. >> good afternoon director nolan and members of the board one distinction. >> state your name for the record. >> deputy city attorney stephanie stewart there is a carve out that allows for challenges of equipment from like to like equipment it is similar not as though a change requires an approval of mta staff the intention was that if there was going to be additions of equipment antennas or different types of equipment that requires input from staff there is a concern of whether or not the structural considerations need to be made for the additional equipment but at least that does allow for again like for like

challenges a right arm of similar equipment. >> thank you. >> i'd like to say it didn't sound - i'd like to add a look back and see what happens if we are moving forward to look at whether or not those were renewed i don't want us to lose out. >> that's a good idea. >> we'll come back in six months timeframe. >> we'll have to move the item. >> second. >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? we've got 4 ids and one in the the i's have it. thank you so the motion is approved director there's no further business. >> thank you we're adjourned thank you for spending the

afternoon with us. >> - >> well, thank you for coming this morning ladies and gentlemen, our city over the past few months had not been grammatic grappling with a crisis in far too any city's between the trust of color and law enforcement in the breakdown of this trustee can most awe kufl the shooting

death of mario woods this past december and since that sdooub incident i've ordered a number of reforms to the use of force policies to prevent police officer involved shootings whenever possible i've proposed comprehensive farmz removes the department of justice own recommendation and the president obama to rebuild the community trust i'm joined by many in our community more calling for an independent review of the police departments policies and of the death of mr. mario woods i've asked and tasked achieving chief suhr and others to submit a detailed plan for further reforms after a series of

community meetings around the city and with stakeholders input this is not been an easy task by any means i want to say first hand a deep gratitude i have to the volunteers of our police commission of who spent count countedless hours working with volunteers from the communities, to make sure that this reflected deserv desires coming from the community as well as professional ideas and today, i accept their comprehensive reform packages it you'll hear in detail in a moment a reformed package that is developed in partnering with the community and already directed any budget direction to incorporate those into the budget planning i believe because of the input

that has been given by countless hours by you are african-american reform and review form and also by a number of conversations i've had not only with this forum but engages engagements throughout the community substantial and meaningful changes to policy to training, and to equipment and they do sdmafkt have agree change in craigslist as to how and when offers use force already, we've seen the benefits of those new tactics earlier this month for example, the police department encountered a man with a knife and the man didn't drop the knife avenue verbal very clear verbal instructions or after getting hesitate that beanbags and pepper stray our police officers

retreated in this incident to create time and distances and eventually were able to apprehend the superintendant without firing the guns our policewoman's protecting did public without using life or death force we are fundamentally reengineering the ways police officers use force awhile at the same time increasing transparent and other within our san francisco police department we already have one of the most transparent process he's and open processing for governing the police the country and this comprehensive reform will build on the foundation and help our sworn officers to strengthen their ties with the community while keeping e keeping the city save this is a time to rebuild and

build and go forward it is a time we recognize we must he'll the wounds and at the same time bridge the challenge between our communities and those scorn to protect them and again, i acknowledge this is no single task it requires the continuous efforts on police reform and job training and violence protection but has to do with education, housing and violence reduction the communities i and many of the other standing behind me representing our communities and our departments h are committed to the work i know everyone here as well is committed i know that more is needed to be done and more needs to be said we'll continue this dialogue and this action

and also wanted to make sure you know that with us today are march and deanthony jones a couple of the youth leader that are part of that process we engaged our youth as ma many along with our faith-based leaders and the community advisory form we've been working hard at with that, i want to let you know this document that is presented to me does reflect what i asked for mayor ed lee and it reflected an approach that i'm proud has been reflected of our community input and, in fact, stat through a couple of the sessions including the one last week to march or make sure they're on track and d to go into detail will be the police commission and police

chief let me introduce exclusively greg suhr. >> thank you, mr. mayor and good morning years we've been working as a police department with the community members many standing behind me and many more that will end up finishing this story to foster trust and good relationships with the community realm in policing without the trust the community we can't best do our jobs that trust was shaken for many recipient especially in communities of color on december 2nd with the use of mario woods and we've been working hard under the leadership of the compamayor an commissioner president loftus to try to get to a place where we can minimize that force with regard to weapons and other

situations we need to figure out a way to reengineer force we've collaborated with experts from around the country around the world and met with people from the united kingdom and members and 3450i67 have been back eatist tries the main goal the sanctity of life for everyone that everybody walks away whenever possible as the mayor stated on the story 90 on february 8 fourth street officers enoccurred a superintendant of 6 foot that mr. plus with a knife in one hand and a key the other and wouldn't surrendered the weapons we tried the tools and were unsuccessful used the language we're talking about the deesclation practices where we wanted to create time and distance to formulate a plan and

tried to deescalate those are makes sen things we've been training for the last few weeks and the day ended they realized what was not going to work and plan b getting an arsenal of the superintendant and wrestled him again sanctity of life, deesclation, proportionality and the time for distance are the basis for everybo everything tweezer talking about with with any weapon short of a firearm the vast majors of shootings that have happened in san francisco by a recent study inside 5 minutes and 19 months create time 15 and distances 15 yarld we can avoid the officer-involved shooting short of a firearm we've made the planning of a

firearm with the use of force it might not seem significant to a regular person but meeting with the community they want an explanation every time an officer points a firearm and will get it supervisors are not required to respond to an incident to take over and hopefully get inside of the 5 minutes that is the firearm qualification to a - from a one or two basically just confidence for the firearm to a 8 firearm training with the first half of the day everybothing on but ucll force the officers will carry the helmet and explosive and batons anything that creates the time and distances and double did capacity the way of beanbags and climate devices over the

same amount of time we've put-down for the under surveillance nufl cis an activiy and declapgs within the policy an officer against a danger to themselves this is a policy driven but not institutionalize as a policy as from 2011 it laid the deesclation and bans the use of restraint or choke holes and prevents the officers from shooting other vehicles the vehicle itself is the only means of assault and we're asking for additional tools including that training with shields i know much is - on for the the swat teams and phenomenal o only for use when someone is a danger to others and staexpanded the cris

intervention i wish for members from the community withat were helpful 5 hundred officers tracing e training in intervention and every recruit graduates from the academy and the trainers we want to come up with advanced crisis intervention short of hostage norts for an aptitude for preservation there is as call for independent review and the department department of justice the cops office formed an initiative is coming to san francisco they've been here we'll have one meeting in las vegas and other plaza places and asked for a command level that person was appoint and stands behind me deputy director tony can capita r chaplain for the mr. nolan and will speak in a minute on those subjects

and transparency asia accurate data and technology is something else that the community is calling for we'll collect the data in realtime using the web-based whatever and smart phones the officers ahave been issued to process the tickets detentions and field intervienss over time he we believe will come in ahead of the supervisor cohen's bills hoping to improve the transparency, of course, body cameras and hopefully the first body worn camercameras in maybe sooner with everyone the san francisco mr. police department barbecue being a body worn camera by the end of 2016 and opted into the capitol hill initiative we're additionally posting public information on that website with regards to

arrests, demographics within the department and on and on so regardless of there is a disparity the numbers in their transparently posted and working to address any disparities we've tried to identify and improve the culture committee we have the officers sworn and services taken an oath to each sought bias and speak to it but inside the department and outside the department all officers will receive preschool judged training by the end of the year and partnering with the community leaders some will be instructors the training and the indict level captains with the we respected community to identify hot spots and senior officers to resolve conflict where people

might have neighbors in their community that might need special attention doing everything we can to create a devised workforce it is critical that the splpd look like san francisco for the first time pretty much ever we have a 24/7 application process whereas it was not that long ago that was a two week window to apply to be a san francisco police department now pretty much anyone can apply around the clock were we having an 8 human resources credited course to help people fought u figure out what they need to do to become an mrofrd and african-american restrictions have a workshop we have barriers to entry to get to people to a place to become san francisco

police officers i'm going to turn it over to commissioner president loftus to speak about yards in regards to policy and introduce chief capita listen. >> thank you chief suhr and mayor ed lee and sheryl brown community parts on december 9th of last year a week after the use of mario woods the police commission challenged and heard speak a speaker express anchorage, frustration, grief and sadness what they saw the video of the use of mario woods i'll say this again 3 separate investigations that are ongoing into the actual shooting and thorough and complete the commission, however, would not wait for the conclusion before opening a discussion of policies and procedures used regarding use of force on the

police department we commit to joining the naturional forest t ve reengineer the ways that police officers use ellis we've been meeting no small and large groups at the police commission to work with the community members subject matters and commissioners to chart a path forward a lot of what the chief mind is true ear boring context from the achieve from the wants 21st century on task force on 126 policing but it has to fit san francisco in order to rebuild trust it is a relationship and it requires all parties at the table. and the thing i'm proud of in this effort the words on that paper and the path 10 headings and thirty sub blues with the result of communities across san francisco what that takes to

rebuild this relationship of trust in particular i want to thank the young people from the community safety initiative that facilitated those discussions if you were there those were tough and lead by young people prominently the public housing in san francisco who lead the conversation with grace and a real commitment i want to thanks the community members the consortiform the ch african-american forum and those who spoeak out everor come up t myself or fellow commissioners we've heard you all of you loud and clear as a result of the conversations suggests and discussion temple areas of focus as was move forward and it comes down to this regardless of the zip codes everyone deserves to have a relationship of trust with the police this plan recognized that

while there are countless neighborhood cross san francisco the communities they enjoy that relationship many have that relationship disabled and the mayor has directed us to work on rebuilding that relationship that it it will require everyone as the chief mind 10 areas i invite police officers and advocates join us first, as a chief indicated reengineering the use of force the commission has asked the department to redo the policies around use of force in this process what we've learned if we can train the officers with the skills, equipment and tools needed to create time and distance with suspended armed with a knife we can see a reduction of up to percent fewer officer-involved shooting s as the chief indicated month officer-involved shootings happen within minutes of patrol

recording to the scene if we put that poorer at the frcenter tha person might be under thirty years of age the question does that officer have all the training skills and equipment to have the time and distances khacan they create a safe perimeter can decree bye time to allow a senior officer to arrive someone that is crisis interferenventio trained to further preserve life at the heart it is considered now sanctity of life everyone decision is around preserving the sanctity of life and the commission has a group of stakeholders to review the policies and the united states department of justice acholic beverage reform has reviewed the policy and the focus a

accountability you'll hear from con in any chaplain and asked for the staff to support our initiative data and transparency is the next focus on our path forward the commission has directed the department to have a study to disagree gait the studies specifically we need to better understand the gpa disparities in particular the african-american community with the less rates to do better to close the gap the chief said body worn cameras have been a proprietor of the department and the commission we believe in 2016 all officers had been armed with body cameras and the next focus is eliminating bias referred has said it is sometimes a motivatatter of com sense but it is understanding the community your sworn to serve and train on the justifies

will be infected a community partnership to have the confidence that reverend brown discussed in community forum to those hospital to identify the officers that are struggling before they've gone too far and want to make sure it works and the next phone call focus sheryl davis will talk about the process with the young people prominently in this community that came in and talked about the relationship with trust our relationship of trust it can work for one of the ears of focus is the sustained effort to recruit the young people to identify ways to do better the chief talked about recruiting a exists wvng and represents for obama 21st century policing and the last 3 things i'll mention when we had those meetings the community we vaufld them a survey how effective you think that was we heard loud and

a clear we loved you asked our opinion by excuse me. criticisms the ideas will be action and as a result of that we've commit to establishing an academic constitution it actually evaluates plenty of time but the commitment to evaluate it live or die with the results we're left to hold ourselves account and allow the commission to hold the police officers accountability and beyond the scope beyond the scope one is community member after community member addresses if we don't say where a community that addresses the realty that violence destroys communities and in certain communities in san francisco without intervention we opening statement awill havea

6-year-old that witnessed hom homicides we do want to work with the police department and improve the procedures and public health response in community effected by violence we can enter keyed the cycle of violence and create save communities for everyone and finally we have asked the mayor to identify the additional resources to help us to comfoer additional police officer in foreign languages that is another way to build trust that's the final recommendation and as we moved in the prelims of those paroles that we have one of the most open and transparent processes for governing police the industcry invitation let's use it to make sure our city lives up to its values thank you >> my job to introduce deputy

to turn it over to reverend brown. >> thank you, very much. dpw chief capita listen mr. mayor, i should like to first commend you for responding to the appeal that came from the wom womb or african-american community that appeal was that we should in times of crisis and tragedy not turn on each other but turn to each other

and because we turn to each other in this city of strans we have really created a dream team team that has been referenced in terms of persons and personalities who came together, secondly, as a history buff i want to make sure there will be no redacting on this matter we will san francisco transportation authority set the record straight chief suhr 20 months ago assembled the assembly hall of

historical third baptist church with his command staff and at that time, the wake of the fallout staten island, ferguson, and many other communities were there have been unfortunate expressions loss of life and violence chief suhr responded to the call of the naacp that we will get involved in a difb active focus intentional endeavor to make sure that san francisco would not be a republic indication of what happened in other areas of the country, however, i unfortunately missed

the process we lost life one mario woods we again were confronted with a apparent grieving, a community disturbed and some folks are getting on the defensive rather than coming togeth together. >> and before i end my remarks i want to say that i am issuing now a respectful, loving appeal to the san francisco police officers association to come to the table, come to the room and

let's sit down and talk we are not your enemy we are your friends. >> we with you, when you're right, we're still with you when our wrong to make sure you get right. >> i did not feel it is disrespectful to make this comment at this time the naacp has unsuccessfully reached out to the police officer organization that put up a firewall rather than to see all humankind as members of the team of our maker and that people tend to hate

each they don't know each other they don't know each other because of a lack of conversati communication it is time i repeat that the police officers association join this dream team and agree to disagree about being disagreeable. >> i pledge to you our dream te team. >> the naacp will be looking, we'll be watching to make sure that these plans, these words will not ring hallow but we are going to in the words of nike just do the right thing

we must move beyond truth telling, meetings, and engage in counters of scene of this accident we are on our way and hold out hope and not let go of justice rose down like waters and rightness in this police department and this community will offer flow as a great moving mighty stream and now i present to you ms. sheryl district attorney's office as she comes let me acknowledge that the moral campus of this dream team is expanded, strengthened and shines brightly we have here the

room rabbis anthony and beth singer of temple manual representing the interfaith community who are standing with the mayor, with the chief, with all people of goodwill and justice. >> thank you reverend brown. >> as reverend brown made his appeal to the piaoa i worked an the appeal to make sure that the voices of community were included i wanted to thank the chief and commissioner president loftus and the mayor for providing that space also that first time want to thank the people that host those xhfgdz to take the reflex to challenge in a space they invited people to come in and

share the magic shawn helped to rally people and boys and girls club in the tenderloin, reverend brown and third baptist that hosted the first workshop and i see others here those were some hard conversations to have and begin i want to acknowledge i know that d anthony jones grew up born and raised in the western edition in a couple of housing developments and morgan ran deep in the hunters point those people leads those working groups and managed the break out groups and the hard conversations they were hard because they were critical this was not a come and sit thouhow t san francisco and the police department let's talk about what that needs to change and what we do to change it i want to acknowledge some of the other folks folks that are here km

african-american young men germany that led the working group working group i love the story of germajeramy a man was accept and the voice was louder and louder and germany went over to talk with him i don't know what 83 he said the man sat down and laughed germany what happens how were you able to calm the moment he had did pins on his shirt and asked him one of the pins frhe skmd asked him what d you know may i angela would do she wouldn't be happy and calmed himself and reengaged those who attended the working groups and sessions appreciate the space to

talk e talk to be heard and respected the youth that facilitated the conversation it provided an opportunity for young african-american youth who are most likely to be impacted a lot of time we talk about be those conversations we're doing the work and forget the voice of folks and it allowed them to have voice to lead the conversation to be part of there were 4 sessions led by the youth kichr, i want to recognize that whasn' reactive those were since this summer and 3 forums that interviewed hundreds of people across the city and two documentary movie how people feel about the police and change the place was an honest critique as commissioner president loftus mentioned people are concerned those will be more conversations that go no where we're hoping

that today is really not symbolic of moving forward but some movement to happen and some may disrepair i'but i'll agree that is a national model to engage with young people and giving voice to communities can shift the dynamics so take the recommendations from community and implement them we can see the change we want to acknowledge many of the young people are criminal justice involved they have been on probation or over probation for them to come in and lead the conversations to be in the room with the police officer is huge and to also feel like those police officers are hearing what they said reverend brown talked about the idea of coming together with visitation e reconciliation that was humanizing on both sides the young folks got to see the police officers as human and police officers got to see

everyone as human we are hoping this is the giving up of more conversations and not the end especially with lead by as you kn young people a comprehensive approach that xfrz the most impacted by the failing system i think we can't stress the idea and notion we engaged the community in the process to define how things can improve will help us to improvement i wanted to hangith the mayor, the chief, president and the police commission for leading the effort and time will tell but based on what has transpired we're looking at a pro tem and hopeful future. >> thank you sheryl and thank you reverend brown and deputy chief chaplain and commissioner president loftus they'll be here

along with others to go into dependent on the package of reforms we've committed to and against with the budget you i assure you that short-term rental and everyone we'll follow-up on every single one of those as the commission has done a lot of work with the community folks we have to honor that and our youth abowill know whether t of the matter we dwekeep our wo by implementing those changes those are not going to be easy this is what i'm getting everyone ready a change that will effect the officers and the training will effect the way we hire and community and certainly the incidents we're seeing are trauma we know of others you're welcome to talk with the chief about other incidents that have already shown the results of those changes take place with the officers and the criticized

response team with that, i'll open up to a couple of questions and i invite you to follow up with the individuals yes, ma'am. >> (inaudible). >> we don't have a total amount we've already i've gone this document is being reviewed now with the police chief and the commissioner president loftus with kate howard and we're the beginning of the budget we have cost factors for all of those hthat will be implemented we are adding this to what i've already been committed to i have a robust it program the interrupt policing and the community organizing that has been successful over the past few years in reducing

the number of homicides but areas of our city we've yet to reduce that dramatically this is where i challenge the reduction program leaders to take this opportunity to come in with us and see what can work more we're in a good trend but have to do more in education there is more than ideas they're implementing ideas we want to have reflected in the budget the community based violence reduction are key but the rec and park in making sure we have a spring and summer so the kids can be active because i doness will not help and in education we're always trying to find alternatives to additional education that didn't reach all our kids i belive that we have a very good conversation in both public and private resources

that hopefully can be aimed at the health crisis in our african-american community as was stated earlier the trau traumation of kids who see this over and over again, we can't dismiss that as being simply a scientific later xrerpt that effects kids going to school people we sadon't want to drop t we can reduce that and make sure we have healthy environment that takes a lot of coordination and cooperation no objectithat's wa this takes everybody and the youthism about being a village it is true everyone has to work at higher levels in order to get a better result. >> (inaudible). >> well again and here's where i will accept the criticism i'll

be deliberately slow in talking about tasers because i didn't want othut of respect for all t communities input we don't believe that tasers is the panacea the answer to reducing violence we don't believe that that is a truth here it is one tool it can be valuable in certain situatio circumstances but time and distance, retraining, backing off and having other alternatives are more than being studied they're actually being implement that is why i want you to talk to the chief about other things that show really good life-changi league of wom life-changing results. >> (inaudible).

>> well you know, i think reverend brown respond to it let me add we respect the poa and the officers need to be represented but like we said on those crisis situations we have to come together and figure out we have to go forward not accusing each other of having different views but having a commitment to a overall goal of reducing crime in the city the poa has a very important role in rebuilding trust this is what we're trying to do with the collaboration we have retirement boaverend brown >> thank you, mr. mayor >> the cleric said no men and women is an island into

themselves as the bell told us is tolls for thee now it is unfortunate that the poa took issue a life was lost that should be the busy business of all we're all part of human family i hope they'll rethink that position the board members were expressing sympathy and support for the mother it was not to condone the actions of this young man at all and i think what we are doing as a team would indeed less even

and stop this unnecessary force that destroys human life i hope we'll not phone cafocus on tase it is about trust, it is about police officers getting into the community and the community getting to know the police officers and working together as a team and i wiant to acknowledge the presence of shawn richard that put his life in hormonarm's way the midst of this great tragedy and that is we're saying to the police officers association don't relate to us through the past come and sit down and talk with us as weave sat down and talked with each other over those two months 20 most. >> one last question and i'll

over offer you the opportunity to talk with everybody. >> first of all, let me say this ever life it is lost is a very big tragedy and while that is under investigation i want to appeal and join our commissioners and our police department and community members we have to reduce violence the circumstances here call for our community to come forth with any information they might have in order to assist us in making sure the individual or responsible wiare held accountability it is break in in a neighborhood we are embraced with trying to change for the better and have a lot of challenges the fillmore and this

is obviously a tragedy and this represents the reason why we have to keep and have strong group of people to prevent those tragedies and getting the guns out of the hands of folks that will misuse them and making sure that people have a way to resolve their differences without shooting each other and making sure we hold those individuals accountabilile and is a young person a 20-year-old was a victim and how much time have we eaten even that and have to work more conservatively with that, i invite everybody to follow-up with the members of the community thank you, everyone for being.
