>> in essence item. >> item 12 amending the transportation cod for the transit only from chestnut to one and 50 street the northbound direction and north bound to chestnut in a southbound directs for approving the traffic modifications along the thirty and stockton transit corridor. >> thank you like we have mr. kennedy to present this one. >> game-changer directors my name is shaun kennedy moving forward program manager at the sfmta here today to talk about chestnut street role quickly as a muni forward for the promotions we're working on the george cords corridor to achieve the safety and on 7, 8, 9 performances so here's a map of where we are

with those corridors this is the muni forward color coded by the implementation process i'll note the red lines are the corridors that are in construction and one i want to point out is mission street it was adopted protected in december and we're working on the implementation monthly paint it is going to be a transitions but paint that work is already ongoing and have that finished by the middle of april and report back to you the blue lines are corridors that have already been late by the board and the green are enactive we're cumber talking about with the community members and the dash lines no outreach process i want to say one anything or thing both the map

the corridors that have red and blue those been legislated at the board level include over 60 permit bulbs and pedestrian bulbs and 12 miles of transit only lanes and thirty miles of pedestrian safety in transit improvement so very exciting those projects start to move forward and get constructed so chestnut street why chestnut street included in muni forward the stockton thirty state and local has over 20 thousand riders a day it goes congest nut van ness columbus and down stockton street the entire length of the thirty stockton will be having proposals brought forward and chestnut is the first segment coming forward and

the segment is one $.5.12 city blocks with 4 steepest and 11 transit stops and two traffic signals along that stretch and consecutively is take 10 to 11 anybody's for stockton many of the existing conditions are things you've seen the corridors we've talked about this is the second densest city the united states so the most corridors this is to not much different the corridor stopping crowded buses especially during the peak periods in the thirty x line over express service, bus moving in and out of traffic and

essential at every block buses are moving to the curve and trying to get back the flow of 2r56 to make its way down the street and then delays due to turning vehicles really this is really an interesting corridor on one half from fillmore west it is objective commercial a lot of pedestrian activity a lot things going on along that corridor and then on the eastern portion residential there is a school and some a lot of parkland and really residential in feel and lee because of that we really- we're focused on trying to help the bus get through the corridor with crowded pedestrian activity one of the problems see say is or is people are waiting for a clear path it to make a

left or right and a lot of turning vehicles waiting for the three pedestrians to wait it backs up traffic leading up chestnut the original proposal was fairly aggressive and included american people a.m. peak transit from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. the southern part of corridor and increasing the stops average 5 hundred feet between stops along congest nut our stop standards are 8 hundred to 1300 feet between stops we are proposing to increase the stops but the bold intersection for the reduction of traffic from the curve makes it safer for the people riding and pocket of intersections to allow cars to move out of the way so buses and cars can move and location

with the traffic - on van ness itself we were proposing are proposing to continue the van ness brt line so van ness brt is running and going to be stopping at lombard there is 3 blocks left on van ness the first block continue lombard and chest newly nut we're proposing other buses move over to the side running lane and the last two blocks from the north point has a transit only lane that supports the 49 and 47 and, of course, the hocking no parking removal but the delay is next to the parking lane and a if you bulbs a number of outreach for the proposals held our own open houses as well as a number of community oriented and developed

meetings including the presentations to the community and the citizens were called total with several meetings to hear about the proposals and listen to what we're coming up with i have another publicly meeting the middle of december a thousand postcards the corridor and over 6 hundred people take the survey asking for feedback along the proposal to get input and what did we hear a couple of message lourtd one the community someone said the transit riders if so a need for the a.m. peak transit only lane they also were strong option to the traffic signals along the corridor what they supported was at spaez and the thirty x note a line

that was severely over crowded taking that feedback and working with the specifies office we've revised the proposals parking neutral the final parking proposal neutral the average stop is the proposal bafrg if a 5 hundred space now to about 9 to nine hundred and 50 to the spacing proposed bulbs that are raining the transit stops we're proposing to add bulbs and our turn pockets including steiner and of him and scott those all three of those have 25 percent of traffic entering the intersection making a turn that's why we selected those for turn pockets on van ness roughly the same

proposal that we started with transit only lanes on van ness goes to two intersections one at the far side of bay the northbound direction and the second one on polk between north point and polk on the north side and we're proposing to make that into a transit boarding island the benefits 20 percent travel time savings with those proposals and, of course, the time savings is not as important as the reliability we think that will add to the service to the whole line not only 0 congest nut and also 60 foot that you see on april if the next service increase soliciting the issues and then, of course, there's

pedestrian safety through the transit bulbs and reducing that distance and slowing traffic with that, i'll be glad to take questions drshgsz any clarifying questions before we go to public comment. >> i think those are clarifying if i may what is - so the chestnut portion of the line what is the estimated increase in speed of the stop spreading. >> so increase for the thirty. >> going on. >> it is faster it stops less what is the estimated factor. >> we're going like i said an average every 10 to 1120 percent we'll reduce that travel time by so we'll do more like 7 and a half to 10 minutes from about 6.9 miles per hour to about 8

and a half. >> if i caught that a 2 minute delta that's on the chestnut portion. >> the second question van ness brt is the thirty not running the center. >> no right the brt is ended at lombard. >> the thirty still will be running up van ness next to the center lane is that the idea. >> so the thirty - comes in at chestnut it stays an 0 thirty and hits van ness are the brt ends that ends at lombard chestnut is a block love benioff that and left to two blocks netting out to stockton. >> very helpful clarifying

indeed. >> thank you director heinecke thank you. we'll go to public comment. >> yes. (calling names). >> eliminating bus stops i don't see how possibly it can save time it didn't make an lemon be sense when transit riders have to walk further and cross more streets to get the bus so it doesn't increase safety and it certainly doesn't decrease the time from where you are going and taking away the lane from lombard to now bay for the brt i gather from that measure is only going to make traffic even worse and slowing the traffic causes more emissions from cars and

nobody seems to think about that as a safety issue and it is people that are breathing problems and seniors for children but none addresses that and that is a safety issue also by pedestrian walk out sweet spots street in addition to the safety transit time pedestrians - transit riders will have to wait longer at the bus stops to wait for the unloading and loading of more passengers that will have to board a bus because the bus stops are eliminated so it didn't save any time at all and just increases the traffic and increases everything we have to put up with those days in san francisco the over development and the traffic that you all are causing. >> >> thank you. next

speaker, please. >> i just wanted to suggest that efficiency has been mentioned many times and seems other cross purposes are rider convenient so the term of efficiency is a red flag and experiences with brt including santa fe and cleveland where the public was really enthusiasm about roll out initially have been followed by much less success than claimed budget & finance more than two buses staking up with longer than integrals than gone buses they have and transit takes longer it

initially claims and riders are asking why couldn't we run for express buses i think it was stayed that things have to change i appreciate that and i understand there is a lot of money riding on this this is really what drives the progress before federal, state, and local but simpler ways of accommodating more traffic or decreasing traffic and getting more ridership brt may not be one that hadn't demonstrated that yet and parallel arteries are one block there is congestion problem there. >> this may not be a great solution for san francisco i don't you'll not here this is it is way far link but i think you should pay attention and

also commercial businesses that have suffered in other cities have been paid on the order of $50,000 - >> thank you, ms. thank you. next speaker, please. >> (calling names) and the then followed by patricia. >> good afternoon again mar, i. going to finish with regards to other commercial easier that have been impacted heavily by those situations i'm actually going to make a suggestion i experienced on mission street added 16th street is those red tow away zones none will park if people double parking and instead of having the double parking situation maybe what we should do is go back to 10 minute load zones and green

zones with or without passport so people will not be afraid to go to the curve if they're going to be there anyway veto to deliver a long time the delivery problems pickup and delivery particularly on mission i've got photographs there were buses behind buses no cars really in the way it is a bus waiting to pull over or a bus waiting to load or unload nothing but buses right away right now with this particular intersections into distributors on mission street the cars are not the problem there is a lot of buses getting in each other's ways i'll go out on a limb an area under dispute at 16th street and mission right now that makes a good parking garage lubbing for the busses to actually get in thereof the

streets off that corner and load and you think load and especially parking meters could be a parking garage could be there there's instead of the luxury condos that some people want to put to that's my suggestion for the parking garage. >> next speaker, please. >> (calling names). >> he peter straus our members have before supportive as you may know of the muni forward and urge to adopt it this measure we like the stop rationalization of putting 60 foot buses on the thirty with the minor manufacture along this corridor i mentioned on terryville we're frustrated you know the at the compromises that have been made of the important measure that

was deleted we are frustrated of the aggressive components of that project has been deleted probably i miss the meetings but i see all the chart on the list i i don't think this is more chart than the removal of the transit lanes in particular on congest nut street that is frustrating that happens an hate street that people those days approach the street lights as hazards to pedestrian safety and you know that is just so backward that was on hatred street two unfortunately, the stop signs here on behalf of the appellant street lights were not dleeltdz it is unfortunate the street lights were deleted and frustrated not as a proposal on

scott street it is danger to cross and important that the staff develop and present better statistics on how installation of traffic lights support the pedestrian safety not a hazy hope that some of the other measures had been returned but hope you will accept and implement that proposal given that is before you thank you. >> thank you, mr. straus. (calling names) >> frankly shawn has been easier to work with on congest nut street i wanted to give him some compliments our opposition we don't a lot of this once again support our big objection is the loss of scott stops the reason why as several of

them left they couldn't stay that long we have a lot of world war ii korean vietnam's veterans in our neighborhood and stations where go walking is extremely, extremely difficult to have to walk if marina middle school to peer street is 8 to nine hundred feet he said nine hundred i'll take it for the seniors to walk that far for two buses is justice criminal because it hurt and that's at the stop the scott stop is a stop for social allergies if they get off the busses they go to the coffee have their little meetings a

1 o'clock group and ask if they did it there's an everyday occurrence through the marina for the mail for the night and jump on the bus to go back particularly to the eastern portion and they will have to walk 4 hundred feet with a grocery bag to get to the near itself business that's criminal and it takes away the social life as well any of the people that are locked in neither homes we have to consider them thank you. >> >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> and (calling names). >> howard true again look i wanted to first, we support this project i want to see this happen as peter said more to be done and explain how

less stops really work best for the muni shows a savings let's think about that instead of one or two people to stop for and fight its way into the traffic cars don't give the busses a fair shake 10 people get on especially now we're using both doors and the less frequently they have to fight to get back into traffic, of course, if you build bus boarding zones no fight but i'll talk about the stops for bus i'm old i live in a neighborhood where it was seven hundred feet average and the rest of the 28 buses for the driveways 14 hundred appealing feet i'll looking forward in 2018 we'll have the 28 buses 14

hundred foot between stops when you look at that people really have to walk the seven hundred feet most of them live in a way they'll walk one way or another to say one hundred feet less big deal people canned walk probable when they were thirty they'll still be walking thanks a lot this is a nice step and we hope to make the thirty better those covets projects set the stage for this to happy good afternoon each line has to be improved we save on think average one minute on all - >> thank you, thank you. >> herbert wiener was the last person to submit a speaker card. >> herbert wiener you

you have been leaving the bus stops for 20 years and no change the speed of the buses and no guarantee that the bus speed will change with that project whereas it is clearly needs for business and what you're doing your miss funding the resources with expensive bulb outs with $300,000 a each and put that into the busses that is clearly wasteful and as pointed out you are to have a balance in public transportations and the logic behind was the trade offs unfortunately, the trade offs translate the sacrifice of the vulnerable the seniors and disabled you through them the wheels of the bus and at least able to get here to

testify on their on behalf of i think they deserve equal attendance if not more attention the bicyclist you should do that so really i don't want you know this approval to be the mta express in one area and out the other you have to give this careful thought and address the social realties and your derelict in our responsibility. >> thank you, mr. wiener public comment is closed. directors do you have any concerns or questions. >> i'll say obviously this of the discussed that was my bus stop i have to say on the 14 line and having the choice within the 14 and 14 r i've done it i take the bus everyday and i'll wait 5 minutes to take on r

over the 49 and get there faster, in fact, it get me faster when i got off the 24th and i got there the same time as the r i spend my money there (laughter) there is a truth to the a person that takes the bus evidence by roving the bus stops you speed up up the travel time i know that is truth because people are relegated to take the bus didn't mean they have more time to wait this thought that people on the bus can take their time and their time is not valuable i assume they that get that way we were never going to make the system more efficient if more sacrificed out bus stops they're near and far sights on the block

is maelgd and so this is a step we have to take that you guys did a great job with working with the community were more concerns but you got to the a place with the input from the community and balanced out needs with the transit reliability and speeds the pedestrian safety and retaining you know parking and all traffic flow i think that is a really balanced approach i'm happy to move to support that. >> thank you bordering. >> director ramos oh, first of all, congratulations mr. kennedy from the proposals on the citizens we know your easy to work with and your presentation which is good as folks who pay attention to this and hopefully not too many of you there are other hobbies

in life i have stopped the spaed of the p u t is i say that, however, and note i think we need to be sensitive to the needs of people that find is harder to walk i'm not presume people find is difficult to go in stops and request why question why they don't walk and as i said in the the course of this trial e p those that know the folks if that becomes an issue please contact us elsewhere maybe help you to design or consider paratransit but i do think the process needs to speed up and stop spreading is a minor way to do it i'm interested in the fact that the transit lanes was rejected i'm a

proponent of transit lines lanes i think that chestnut street is a different corridor for striping or red carpeting i know that bus line is different than the bused lines we're looking for red carpeting so i'm okay with that but i want to make sure that lombard the business people are addressed i wanted to keep an eye on we have significant we've discussed lombard street and hopefully van ness and maybe the geary brt will effect transit by passing this proposal today i'll support i don't think that means that there can never be a red carpet or transit lane on that corridor we should keep that as an option if this proves not to

solve the problem as the city is more populated we need to relook at this. >> thank you director heinecke director ramos. >> thank you for the meeting he just want to respond to a couple of things first of all, the comment been blood splatters where did the lady go she left brt is so successful doubling the riverside want sfmta has created funding pots how successful brt is in winning the riderships this is the corridor is determined so successful as new state funding their expressly being applied but the state recognized to get pout e people out of cars benefits us all with the viral goals and obviously with respect to what

is most important to me reducing the cost of operations as mr. straus said when you speed up the service it is million dollars over the long haul that translates both service not only on the corridors but corridors throughout the city my own dear mother over 75 years is struggling with a hip problem that prevents her from walk wishes she could walk one feet the transit service can't afford to run service to where she lives that's the big picture i'll say it over and over our resources are dried-up and won't be long i fear that if we're not more efficient with our resources the limited resources we have we start talking about

reduces resources and reducing assess for more people because of all of us can't walk a little bit further or accommodate a little bit of the trade offs so the whole city can include the people that don't have access to the public service or sufficient transit service with that said, i'm going to communicate my support for that. >> thank you director ramos. >> sounds like we have a there is a motion and a second mr. kennedy can i ask you a couple of questions the big theme we're seeing we recognize that sometimes, we can't put those projects in as originally brought to the public we get feedback and changes i want to clarify this one is not a pedestrians high injury situation along this corridors; correct? >> correct. so you so again,

the responses to the proposal is not the responded we were having in 5 or 10 years with the lombard corridor we'll keep in mind we'll continue to make changes from the riding public or the neighborhood public in 5 or 10 years wants to see those changes. >> correct we're we don't had had monitor. >> and not walk away the idea the traffic lights i think that peter central subway brought i know that on residential streets the traffic lights there are is a feeling they'll change the character the streets it is not so much will it be safer it changes the nature of the streets we had that concerns with the 5 route i believe we're profiling with the traffic kirnz for one or two locates. >> one or two locates.

>> those will be built the next year maybe we can look at how those are received and maybe an option for the areas where we were proposing traffic signals did neighbors said it didn't fit the characters of that street do you think we'll be able to do that as we get the traffic lights on the 5. >> we'll learn a lot of as their aligned on mcallister and one location specifically on chestnut that makes a lot of sense is octavia which has proposed for traffic signals over the years they'll stop at that location that's one to keep an eye on. >> it will be interesting to tool in the toolbox again, the public speaking a lot about you those projects can be difficult

there is a motion and a second. >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? hearing none, that motion carries as well. >> thank you. >> 13 presentation and possible action for the 2017-2018 practical budgets for rates and charges and possible revenue charges and revenue and reductions discussion of the fy 2017-2018 and population based general fund allocations the 2017-2018 operating budget and prevailing changes to the discounts for low income owners and adrc a new fee and amending the transportation code to reflect those changes and rectify other substantive motions. >> thank you director reiskin. >> madam chair excuse me. one second we have some live inform happening at the moment

this item is largely an informational item in its information go through it quickly one aspect that is an action item i recommend you that take right now as we speak that the board of supervisors is delaying consideration of the towing contract you approved. >> few months ago pending this board considerations and approval of the changes to the transportation code to adjust towing and storage the admin and storage fees for people that get their cars toad two year the first time and the low income program i have a whole budget presentation i'll hit the highlights and maybe x punishing got to that one item to vote on and take the rest of the - if

sfgov can go to the presentation quickly through with your framed by the distribution and you've established those the calendars is the same this is the last time before you as a informational item and meantime we'll be reaching to the public we're driven by our goals to make the plans better and the streets safe within the financial picture i've heard from the controller in january or early february to remind you that the outcome from a baseline prevention is shortfalls in both years we need to close we do that by looking at trade offs and priorities that really are the meat of the budget process to we're looking for your feedback the coming weeks and the public's feedback what we

recommend considering and others we don't for the index for the most part so in terms of the operating revenues within one thing to meet we've recently learned of a change the way that the states controller's office is calculating a formula to which our state transit funds and the low carbon upcoming the cap & trade that has a significant impact adverse an impact on the order of digits inverse impacts this is not rescued we need to reflect that on the budget we bring forward and that's the operating baseline amend significantly one and $50 million item that could see it significant we're working with the california transit association to try to get a different outcome and the

expenditures you've seen so to kind of jump on the revenue does the indexing you've seen the fee first on the fairs on the fees those revenue sources on the first page i've put forth i've narrowed did list based on the feedback from the previous meetings the first page on muni fairs on the second page i'll note at the bottom the adjustment it is up for your consideration or would have an impact on the order of 3, 3 and a half million dollars supervisor avalos spoke to the sentiment behind this and one we do support and that i recommend you approve the rest of the information is really for your background this is responsive for things you've asked us to provide in terms of information on the expenditure side i

expanded the list to include all the things that the divisions of the agency has suggested as well as on slide 25 a list of - i'm sorry on slide 26 a list of potential uses of one time part of funds balance to, of course, stay above the minimum but this is based the priorities when we met in january so things there are there for your consideration on the capital does the only thing to make reprehensive on slide 29 we were previously showing somewhat of a decrease within the encourage proposals it is flat was we're now as shown on slide thirty we're incorporating a assumption we'll

have the revenues recommended by the mayors task force specifically the state of california increase and a restoration of the vehicle licenses up to 2 percent that brings in 44 to $65 million additionally every year and dedicated towards transit and streets things particularly we don't have other fund for feet and expansion and facilities as well as additional funds for street safety the rest of the presentation that is what you've seen before just highlights from the capital program and see the complete picture with that, i'll pause and maybe respectfully suggest i don't know from the board of supervisors is still active. >> they're still more items. >> maybe suggest public comment so one the one recommendation for action in vandals of discussion of the

balance. >> actually madam chair you may want to call for public comment on the towing related fees and ask the members of the public that want to speak on the budget to hold off. >> so let's break up public comment on the towing related fees. >> herbert wiener one question on the budget is there any money allocated to paratransit. >> mr. wiener actually that is she's only asked for public comment on the towing fee. >> she'll be back on the budget thank you, mr. wiener. >> good afternoon again and again and yesterday he had the pleasure of sitting through the discussion of the towing related fees it seems to me maybe i

don't know what the supervisors are doing if you have a more racketed fee for the first time offenders and the second and third time higher but the total fees should come from this all necessary monies and hopefully not rounding up too much when you figure out the expenses should come from the folks that have their cars towed transit riders shouldn't pay for this people that don't know how to park their cars carefully or have to get it towed to keep traffic moving if they shouldn't pay we have an example where we passed a couple years ago we said that muni needs more money and based on population increased we have another 27 odd million dollars a year maybe the wisdom of the city that people should be able to park anywhere

anytime but they show come up with that this is it is a transit function not making the city better a safety deal so from the city believes that then the supervisors should find the money someplace but ultimately it might be easier to do lower the fee for the first time offenders and if you lose our car because you know you didn't want to pay the third time offense what we can or we say to you this is one approach thanks a lot of. >> thank you, mr. straus next item, please. >> thank you peter straus for the transit riders and spoke last night we spoke been the budget and discussion amongst users ever yourselves of the problem of the revenues increases were on the backs of

transit riders on the expenditure side were prepared. >> amongst all the users and transit riders and in the current proposal there is still nothing on the revenue suicides from the fee increases that are strikingly tied to the cost of increases i have no problem the reduced towing fees but from zero to now we're 0 minus 3.5 it is important there not be an increase there is a problem if you accept the reduction of tow fees without commentary fees and supervisor avalos mentioned the parking this is an obviously one to put on the table thank you leave to you and the staff but just talk about a 3.5 reduction

the cost from the motorcyclist side that's a problem thank you >> thank you. any more public comment on the tow fee hearing none, decorations input on this have you had a chance to look at this i presume. >> you'll move it do i have a second. >> second. >> great let's go ahead and vote >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. so then thank you. (laughter) i think the board was stalling down there so what way guess i suggest and sorry if there is a little bit rushed you've seen all this before that would be helpful your help on expenditures >> mr. reiskin why not go and tell you your suggestion is on

the revenues where you see us having some feedback to you going i don't want to go through the whole thing again. >> sure thank you i think the proposed revenue sources we have we've with the we recall things like express premium for express buses and a few other things i've taken those out so singularly who is before you on the revenue side is what i suggest notwithstanding the state issue that we have more recent revenue information on some of the other lines so we may be able to anticipate some additional revenues elsewhere based on the existing fees but i think on the revenue side this essential

represents what i recommend i realize one is significant go in the wrong direction but do the right thing we've heard the free muni for youth making muni free for youth up to 18 even though the new age is 17 that brings us into harmony with the rest of the region i feel comfortable making that recommendation any public comment on the revenue side frankly it depends on how much we have to work with we have a lot of good ideas and heard directly from se of the key staff the key division directors on those as we discussed somewhat at the board retreat i'll not recommend the service increase we'll do

another service increase that completes the 10 percent of 12 the t e p recommended that's a lot and given the urban certainties of forecast it is pursuant to hold as much as i'd like to increase the service forever i think of the balance there are some you know some of these are small and some significant there are things within the transit ear for example, that are directly related to safety or that will have a direct offset in terms of oftentimes and fill the classes where we have not yielded enough people therefore people working extremely high numbers of overtime hours every week that calls if in question how productive can you be if you're working 20 or thirty hours a

week over but john haley has prioritized those on the have the does the sustainable streets folks are prioritized for the revenues what they would fund a few in a very specific positions sprinklers throughout the agency but basically one thing we have a rice revenue picture we see which we plug the revenue changes we'll have a fair small amount to work with and i would essential recommend allocating them 24/7 the most incredible safety and overcame of the critical sustainable streets and maintenance needs and as i said a few can he positions to the

extent that the revenues support that and in terms of the fund balance i did try to take to heart the guidance that you provided this with us was burn we'll recommend not by much but probable have to fight with the cfo our fund balance is up above $2 million that is not counting what will accrues at the end of this fiscal year so whether we bring it down back to a 10 percent reserve or some numbers there are critical needs you've safety and efficiency and that was how i arrived at it you see a bunch of single priorities we've talked about that is one

of the best and most efficient things for muni and the city and other things safety oriented, other things that are smaller but critical, so again, using the guidance you gave i'll perhaps recommend i bring you a list that will bring us to 10 percent maybe down to 12 and a half or 15 percent you'll have choices but this is a good use of funds and a number of things we can't fund within the proposed capital budget. >> and where if you funded the full list what is the balance the percentage. >> 9. >> no we have $200 million that so, so if you reduce by one hundred million dollars. >> publicly dispute my cfo

i'll propose showing you option to 15 and bring it down to 10 and maybe something in between a prioritized list i know there is different feels on the board whether we should go down to 10 or 10 is the current guideline. >> yeah. >> okay so going back to may i. >> yes. please. going back to the earlier discussion and some of the proposals you stated prioritize from mr. haley that reduces overtime - today budget from the savings that is a net cost not an initial cost. >> that's correct. >> so i guess one i know this

is important to understand right now we are exceeding the overtime by a lot per year so it is not necessarily budgeted savings but actual savings i believe that the transit finance staff has estimate basically for every dollar we investment in overtime we reduce by $1.15 we'll absolutely see the net savings but other than just budget mask that is actually savings i mean see this is the issue i have with that, if you're showing it to us that is budgeted but the real world we're saving money you're saying and i believe there will be some modest maybe 15 percent savings in terms of overall budget we shifted from people who are

basically over burdening the overtime that will be the regular salaries line. >> i'm not looking to make money but it is one thing to say there is a cost associated of several million dollars but a net effect - >> they ask for different things. >> they projected a 15 percent savings from making this change so i think that is investment that has immediate positive returns on investments but also i think that is a safety issue we have folks working and prosperity folks working an extremely long number of hours. >> thank you. >> i guess the other thing to say not to restart the fight but for me to know what number we're

getting to on the fund balance with accuracy i'm sure will surprises none not favor down to the 10 percent we can add back as we have better projections of where the economy is going as much as that disappoints i'm not going to say i'll oppose any fund balance but conservative and i like the idea of expenditures that are truly one time so we're not building in something we have to do i mean even with signal priorities some small costs of maintenance i want to know that but with that said, the signal priorities and transit those are really an one time expense that could be a justified use that's the way i view that otherwise i will want to go slowly with the fund

balance while some of the things about very good i'm not sure many of them reach the critical crisis stage i think we're using the fund balance above the 10 percent we shouldn't below that that economic presentation we received from the controller's office at argue board retreat suggested that could very well happen again as we make the city more and more reciprocate on transit i think we may have an obligation to increase the fund guidelines and realize as we push hard you two have been talking to make people take

transit it buildings a greater obligation for a rainy day fund that's why i'm more defensive about reserve. >> thank you directors any other one time uses of funds balance i think that director heinecke summoned it up quite well and i do want to go back to the revenue sources and i do want to note as we've noted the towing fees we've approved and the contracts with the board of supervisors approved has put us in another 3.5 hole i think that supervisor avalos had a good point that educated what i talked about the budget is if we do recognize that people having their cars towed it is a huge hit i don't want to balance that on the backs of the transit

riders i really would love to see us - i don't know if it is appropriate in here since that had been a discussion we'll need to happen i'm not suggesting we go back to the sunday meeting situation we had i think we need to target any extension of meter hours incredibly thoughtful employee and target commercial corridors are meters can be at 6:00 p.m. whether thriving restaurant and night life is unheard of in any city having no sunday meters when the intashz and buses are stuck behind cars i think i remember the metering brought in was $8 million that was some was ticket there is money there definitely to be had

i i don't want to see us subsidies the towing contract a worthy worthy goal to help people not to have their cars that is maybe their livelihoods take taken away but manager the resources of the parking we talked about last time about the per hour price cap that we've node changed in four or five years it maximized out we've had on parking meters. >> to raise that cap. >> good i'm glad and the other things the number of passports the fact we're makinged out i want to see targeted meter extensions show up the budget especially we're in another 3 housing unit $5 million behind anyone else feelings.

>> so what - let me rather than asking you questions that is i mpertinent - we've made a deal this was coming back and one of the things we had the state of play for this bonds i'm sensitive to the political bonds sensitive to at some point the future the agency want to issue a new bond i'll be open to other ideas for meter enforcement are other things but want to be sensitive to that context if i may what are some of the ideas besides sunday is night life enforcement or increased

business zones some of the alternative to create revenue. >> so just to remind when we propose sunday the improvement of meters on sunday was not driven by desire to increase revenue that was a desire to increase park availability and it works it relieved congestion that worked the main opportunities are the ones that the vice chair were not right now importing parking regulations at a time some neighborhood like a peak activity like evenings that is a logical place to look for honestly trying to manage parking that needs to be managed like stopping at of p.m. and a vibrant commercial evening night life district didn't makes a lot

of sense so i can't say we kind of reviewed the parking program but generate more revenues but looking at the parts of city and the times of the day we're not managing parking would be an opportunity to advance our transportation policy that may have some revenue benefits. >> and remind me did we ever start that or start the sunday parking but not the night time enforcement. >> we have a evening with the special event area and the port meters go later but the rest of the mta meters outside of the special zones stop at 6:00 p.m. and i would would be open to exploring that with the outreach to the business exultance effected i'll tell you relying my only personal externals from

sunday meters and talked to every business owner the west portal we hate it we hate it we did it and they love it love it we don't have the same outreach but i for one will be open with that outreach to the business community especially because i think there are business corridors that welcomed the enforcement thought that will help the out-of-towner the business i said it better and agree with sheryl. >> thank you if i may. >> thank you and i want to second that comment that director heinecke made if we were to go forward with any augmentation of any meters e.r. spending housing or what have you, we have best to work with the businesses and the faith community it is one of the things ami i've going come to

understand eloquently from folks that were advocating from the community was the process of displacement and gentrification and pushing people who grew up in san francisco out of the community and having sunday be the one time they can felt like they could come back into the community and reconnect with their networks and what have you given the rates of displacement particularly with the african-american community i think we will owe to working with the pastors and direction bridges flagged that if we did that it would be a good way to go about it working with the faith community as well as the businesses because i do believe what we'll find that there will be support for not just

extending the time of the meters but maybe augmenting the costs of the parking so we can get nor turn around but enforcing the sunday meters the way thai do in commercial districts and what have you i'll be looking forward to that to look through any options maybe to continue to explore. >> if i can add one more thing as a board we're often you know quick to tell director reiskin what we can't do what is unpopularity and what is popular i'll say i agree as much as i would love to extend the service but the your recommendation is the responsible one to make sure we have the long term funding before, before we augment those up and down reduction is really

detrimental so you know just to give cover i agree so we'll see a more sustained funding path i'll not be in favor of the additional service increase. >> uh-huh. >> good. >> thank you. >> bless you. >> i had to watch this go by the couldn't get on it was so bystanders bad i was late to an earlier meeting to get on the train the train cars is coming. thank you, thank you. >> director reiskin can we talk about under proposed revenue sources on page 15 the discount for cooperate users on a robust discussion about the availability of the clipper cards and pg&e the folks that use cash the fairs are going to

go up we are going to allow clipper users those fairs so not go up the $0.25 is that the structure. >> no (laughter) i know that was. >> cash penalty. >> i know that was the discuss but we will not be realizing revenue benefit that - i believe crock me. >> that's good. >> i'm glad you clarified it i know this will do that will add an extra quarter to what the fair table on the previous two pages back right. >> just for those who are paying in physical cash not clipper cash but. >> if you're a clipper holder your subject to the index but if you pay cash above the i guess

by a quarter. >> and there's two our point about availability this is absolutely work that we'll need to do and do another round of free clipper cards for the vendor network we don't penalize them if they're on clippers. >> we want to recognize for us handling of the cash comes with added costs and security issues and all of those additions as well. >> and slower buses. >> slower buses thank you. >> all right. thank you i'm glad we clarified that that was something i'm supportive decorations imagine director reiskin you feel we've not touched on. >> i think there was a beginning of a public comment paratransit someone that is expressed interest the

paratransit program is opportunity the operating budget particle from the sales tax from the operating budget and the capital budget it contemplates the replacement of the existing fleet and expansion so i know there was a paratransit presentation a number of months ago so there recent a pretty good funding on the capital side to finger that and the paratransit new contract is currently being negotiated and the costs are going on and paratransit we essentially authorized our contractor and actually went to the board of supervisors to get legislation approved that will protect the wages of the workers that prairie at that time was the right thing to do it is inching up our costs somewhat, but i think that you know, i think that is important i think that is the only other

kind of open issue and like i said the change the state grant we maternity know more by april 5th if not we may need to take some of these expansion items to the extent we can afford them and maybe propose putting them on a reserve with the resolution of issues if we have to take an 8 digit hit on revenues anticipated we don't want to start spending the money. >> i read the letter that we got via e-mail the mtc wrote regarding that has there been any response from the state yet in terms of taking another look at that. >> the best understanding we have now they believe they that the change they made is actually

consist with the state law to change that back to go the way it was would be state law that's the california transit association is pursuing you know ideally to get the vehicle ♪ legislative session ♪ calendar year to get that fixed the state controller's office i understand their position is technically the way it right creating the outcomes that make sense no sense the transit agency are recommend we revert to the old interpretation by macro the state law clear >> thank you directors if i have no other questions comments public comment. >> (calling names). >> molly is she here. >> no. (calling names) the 20/20 speaker cards i have.

>> if you could turn in a speaker card. >> peter straus again just one idea on meters i wanted to mention i've never understood why staff has resisted not putting meters in rpp zones and allow the parking permitting proprieties to allow to feed the meters especially on the commercial zones that makes a lot of sense but the staff relieved resisted i ask you not retreat if the service increase if so not frivolous it is not enough i can list a number of areas that have grown one the muni forward proposals and that was originally identified as requiring the 2 percent and second is the equity that show not be taken out of services that was suggested in

the materials before are and third just a growth needs before the city fifth and - fourth is the additional service needs not being addressed in terms of night time specifies we're aware not adequately addressed and we're inquiring the light rail vehicles within this budget year there is nothing in this budget year to pay for expanded serves those are expanded vehicles and no funds to pay for it what will we do with them and also i don't see that as contrary to the maintenance support that john high on a hill it calls to me i didn't expressions and continues to be problematic whenever a measure to increase the operating budget support

this commission either is silent or actually states between the board where the additional - thank you >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> howard he's gone herbert wiener followed by tom. >> herbert wiener to return to my delayed questions about better transit i think that is really are to note if you're dwp fees and the disabled to take paratransit there should be adequate resources to accommodate them i don't see any indication of that you have to take into consideration are they using paratransit is absent argument you have to stand by that so those are my concerns thank you. >> p thank you, mr. wiener.

>> tom the last person to turn in a speaker card. >> thank you, tom paratransit my little sister said i'm a muni man the day may come i'll be using it more butize enjoy the lifts and the ramps the new ram extension there are harder to push-up especially a list up and another list up include one single straight ram up as soon as you take you're hands off the wheels to push them backwards the lift is

making our wheelchair go backward and when you get a double lift a first and second rise that second rise i can't do that we want to push if you able to it moves it exercise helps on other public school commenters it is hard to get here he go down on the second story the number of new buses are they the same or more or less than the buses their replacing or increasing like the giants land use and transportation stadium 15 hundred homes, 11 thousand jobs and i understand that you mentioned you can only get on the in lines are we creating more standing room

is that part of this goal here the next part has anyone seen the bus factory it is huge or big or superfluous you know, i just wanted to know if anyone has seen them thank you yes, thank you. >> just to speak to some of that if you like on paratransit not only are we exuding a new contract but an mandate we don't have the option san francisco harassed over the years been a leader in paratransit so we will absolutely provide the level of paratransit service there is demand for in terms of the lifts on the vehicles vetting through the

services from the mayor's office on disability we definitely heard the february and tongue taking notes so we'll see anything we can sided to make the lifts work better for people coming on manually the bus fleet weren't only expanding but replacing some of the informative feet with 60 feet buses nor buses and bigger buses that will bring us and give us more capacity and i have least ones or once been to a bus factory argue transit director was there next week. >> about number of staff that are at the factories making sure overseeing buses are built right so for the most part.

>> that was for discussion equipment for the towing contraction that concludes. >> item 14 for whether or not to go into closed session while they're doing that okay item 15 in the meantime the drorngz met to discuss the stench and the reevaluation of the tip line with the city attorney the board voted to smelt that decided the labor negotiation and no anticipation whether to dloeshgs information move not to disclose argue nevada's the i's have it. not inform disclosure

rent-controlled unit. >> supervisor campos is the author and joined us supervisor avalos well, thank you. >> thank you very much madam chair and colleagues thank you for hearing this item today the legislation before you is about helping families and school workers in san francisco remain in their homes during the academic year i want to begin by thanking the co-sponsoring supervisor kim and supervisor avalos and supervisor mar that builds on prevention that supervisor mar spearheaded in 2009 that legislation allows landlords to evacuate families owner move-in the families have children under the age of 18 the scald system and prohibits the eviction during the school year the current legislation expands

the existing legislation to include all no fault evictions so that families with children in our system can not be evicted during the school year for evictions related to condominium conversion and substantial rehabilitation the second thing it includes educator and we define educators as people that work in san francisco continentals directing with students and home daycare's both public and private this not only includes the teacher a classroom a paraprofessional an administrator a psychologist or security guard or liaison a cafe worker janitor or school nurse we know that san francisco is facing an affordability crisis

if this affordability crisis that impacts our education in terms of the crisis in housing the san francisco retirement board provided the data that shows that there were 2000 notices of eviction filed between be marking 2014 and 2015 this is a significance 55 increase compared to the 5 year period before that wrpts with regards to no fault 4 hundred and 38 vibrations were on record if you ask the advocates the number will probable be do you believe that number the impact on families with children raises concerns many families who are veektsdz can't afford to stay in san francisco and therefore are forced to leave san francisco

but not just the families themselves from the family is evicted the impact can be felt if an educator is evicted not only of that educator and his or her family by the students that are educated by his or her that's why this legislation make sense and to put it into context of what it means to a school worker let's look at the salary for a full kre7b89d teacher is less than 3 thousand 4 hundred conflict of interests a month that teacher has to if they want to stay in san francisco facing an eviction they have to deal with the market where a one bedroom apartment the medium rental prices for the one bedroom apartment is 3 thousand 6 hundred and 20 more than the entire money they make within a month the issue is worse foyer a

paraprofessional here in san francisco a paraprofessional their average salary is $2,083 a month imagine living on that when you have to pay 3 thousand plus for a one bedroom a december 2015 professional survey by the educators of san francisco that represents payrolls and teachers found that 70 percent of all responded to that survey and 59 percent were concerned with the high cost of living in san francisco this is impacting the educators of our city x baiting the issue san francisco, california ray and nationally a school teacher and staff shortage problem pursue the number of people enrolled the program has dropped if a 45 thus to fewer 20 thus and that is between 2008 and

2013 and at the end of the school year last year we have nine hundred openings the school district alone and an insufficient number of substitute teachers we had a hearing pointing out that because of the high cost of living that we have the school district unable to hire all the substitutes it needs this ordinance about help mitigate the impact of displacement of educators and families 2 will be something simply needs jeer we can know that city has taken steps to help the educators those findings steps require that we actually it takes time to do some of the things we've talked about we have programs to create housing for teachers that it takes time for those findings projects to have an impact unless we act now and today by

the time we do something we will have los lost so much of the educators i take the opportunity to thank you the staff hillary and my legislative aid that has worked on that for quite a few of the i want to acknowledge the critical role that the midnight educators lee the audience and others if usf and particular i 2079 acknowledge the work of dean preston the decker the tenants together this is actually something that came out of the work that dean has been doing in his neighborhood it's been dean's brainchild working with the tenants throughout the neighborhoods and communities that issue came up and that solution that dean came up with and brought to our office important i also want to thank

the youth commission for unanimously supporting the legislation and acknowledge the board of education sandra fewer and matt haney who is here today i know they have drafted a resolution that will be kcmo about the board of education at their meeting tomorrow colleagues, i believe we need to act now to address this crisis because that housing crisis unfortunately has created another crisis i respectfully ask for your; is that right and unless questions or comments i'll turn to public comment. >> thank you supervisor campos for your opening remarks especially ladies and gentlemen, we allow public comment to happen right here come and share your thoughts with us. >> thank you.

>> good afternoon. i'm the director of the pacific primary which is a school for early child center and schools that has two sites at barker and grove the school is over 40-year-old and serves parents a few day around the school serving one and 55 children i've been the director for 20 years and have been an educator in the city for 40 years and this is teacher crisis is the worse i've seen the city norman if we put an ad out for a teacher 10 to 20 applications zero resumes this legislation is essential and i want to thank preston that has done an offered amazing support for the teachers at 1.4

educators to everything urge my choerld support and thank you for supervisor avalos to bring this pardon first of all, as educators we support this legislation is expands the rights of families of the students that are faced with the affordable crisis, and, secondly, i'm important to us a concrete step that the city can take we hope takes to provide a degree more security for the educators in the city i'll give you two example really the last week not a week has gone by since i've taken the job in august getting e-mail address from the educators that are facing an out right eviction or translates into an eviction important one teacher and veteran teacher serving 25 years facing an eviction now part of progress and the other from a

teacher her living in a critically important field and trying - a computer tech teacher said i'll not know what i'm doing april tloth that legislation will present lots of a degree of security it will serve as a center for our educators and thank you very much. >> hi, i'm josh i cook for the kids in the preschool and a the chapter for tenderloin one we represent custodians and school secretaries and cafeteria workers and people that do safety inspections it is our mix about $1,700 a month so the

crisis is not a secret especially for the members and important we have a little bit of security because we're the folks after school in the morning we keep the kids fed i'm pleased to see the cost workers were included in terms of the ongoing operations with the district it is crucial we be able to support the educators that are serving the classrooms and make sure that the school itself is running so people can focus on the class thank you very much. >> hi jennifer with the san francisco tenants union and little mapping promotions we wholeheartedly support this legislation and while i wish there was a ban on no eviction by providing community establishment we have similar legislation to protect the

families this think an intelligent decision to capitalized it keeps the classrooms stable i support the government interventions to help our vital educators. >> >> next speaker. >> >> afternoon mediating president of the board of education want to express my strong supports for the legislation and thank you to supervisor avalos for breaking and entering it forward at the at least we can insure our educators work hard with the youth i don't have to face the threat of eviction or losing their home the middle of the school year as president of the brown act board i get to see the schools and this is to be routine by the planning commission, and may be acted upon by a single roll call vote issue that is coming up more and more this morning i was at jean parker long-term supervisor peskin district and the principal told me when we can do to better support the school he

didn't say more books or resources do something about the housing crisis we're facing a way that our teachers what live in san francisco and stay without a threat of eviction if we're being asked asked to build the community that are stable that are necessary for all the children to be successful it takes creative building solving that allows us to have quarters that can create homes here and have establishment and build school communities that you are successful so i'm strongly supportive personally our school board is considering a bill tomorrow evening hope to report back from the entire school district and thank you for the hard work of the folks behind us this is the least we can do and i'll be supportive thank you.

>> next speaker >> supervisors thank you, madam chair and supervisors especially supervisor campos and especially for including family chaffering seven hundred and thirty licensed childcare happening half own and half rent the renters are afraid the process of being evicted and we're provider can and educate the youngest children almost all are working families i don't know how the city will work with the stable quality of the childcare for agriculture division those findings kids you mentioned time we don't have that much time and this is moving if one country's to another and have to have providers and families stay in san francisco thank you, very

much i hope we can do that quickly thank you very much. >> next speaker, please. >> my name is michelle sorry. >> and i'm a retired family childcare provider from glen park a program for 33 years this is one of the reasons i can be here when other childcare providers can't you know i'm fortunate to have bought any house when it was $35,000 in glen park and that allowed me to have lower fees for the kids but so i'm fortunate but just very you know alarmed at how many childcare providers are losing their homes you know the 50 period of time that rent we care for the youngest and often the most vulnerable and so, anyway i want to thank you, very much and especially you supervisor campos for including us thank you.

>> thank you supervisors and especially supervisor campos for introducing that i'm depa and in any years of being an eviction defense lawyer i've seen first hand benefits the children bend from the existing law and transitions or calmed the panic and were able to enter the school system without a crisis in that - i've seen first hand time after time the panic here that people experience when they get an eviction notice and to be able to keep for the entire school community the costs to mitigate that a little bit makes a big difference not all we want to see in terms of of tenant protection but you can do it now

to make things a little bit better thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors dean preston district 5 a parent of school-aged children and tenant advocate and thank you supervisor campos for offering this legislation and to the co-sponsoring to supervisor mar for planting the seeds in 2010 hopefully, the board will expand upon i hope we can come together on that i think everyone recognized the crisis in teacher housing as well as single-family homes sf in san francisco we need to ask ourselves wharf of a city if we can't house our families and can't house our educators while we'll built plans for the affordable housing for educators in the future we need to protect

those findings who are affordablely housed doing everything we can as supervisor campos legislation does to protect educators from evictions i want to echo something depa said the enormous amount of stress eviction folks are under and the amount of centers the families and educators are already under even without an eviction so far educators would low salaries to struggle to afford the city and hard work of taking care of and educating our youth a adding an eviction on top of that makes that stress unbearable and the least we can do make sure that didn't occur and disrupt the school community >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi, i'm 101 restraining order less represent the senior

action there's an excellent book by the late frank called teacher men an excellent book gives us appreciation for that profession i grew up here and went to various schools to enlivening peabody and george washington we had teachers that had a stake like by the time my teacher as george washington high school that lives in the community my writing any career as a writer i owe to the entertain the fact teachers are consulting out of town and walking up at 3:30 in the morning they need consideration for the priority why else will they take a job that pays so little unless they

see a need for fulfilling a need like that i appreciate supervisor campos for bringing up to legislation and again, please read the book teacher man by frank la court about the thirty years in taken care of in new york city and give you a very poignant graceful sniebt into teaching in that job. >> good afternoon, supervisors my name is kevin bogus work a nonprofit and san francisco native born and raised i'm here to ask you to support support is it teachers play a vital component in presenting the students and in fear of eviction is something they don't need to suffer an as negative impact and

as someone that attended san francisco schools we had a lot of teacher turnover your favorite teacher about varnish has an negative impact on the kids i want to ask you to support this and continue to take steps to prevent the working-class families from being evicted in san francisco thank you. >> afternoon supervisors supervisor avalos thank you for this legislation my name is a connie ford the vice president of the council no way i'm here to represent the council fully behind this legislation a beautiful and wonderful piece of legislation we're trying to entrap emil with the economic disparities in san francisco i thought i'll tell

you both of my children were born and raised and went through public schools i remember the day any girls kindergarten teacher had to leave it broke her heart she didn't want to go to school i have a granddaughter going to betsey carmichael is in love with her teacher if he left it would be hard to pick up the pieces so children who need the support and love not only of their families but of their institutions so we're grateful for this legislation to keep over families together and to keep our schools supporting our children so thank you very much for this. >> thank you thank you connie my colleagues reminded me how heartbroken i

would be yes, ma'am ma is one year ahead of me (laughter) sorry fred go ahead. >> i love the small towns i'm sarah from human rights committee we were a kid we had to move around and most years my parents were able to wait for the summers i remember the awful year i was behind on everything. >> and how much i was bullied in school a new place that was totally different and hundreds of families with kids it come into our office with the human rights committee and it is really scary to help them fight evictions and the choices to take care of their

children and the status show that moving the middle of the year and pulling u pulled out in general sets kids back months in schooling increases the risk of smoking before their 18 and increases the risk of teen suicide i don't think that is too much to ask the lrpdz left hand to wait for a no fault eviction i wish the kids could stay no matter what when it was about money but we don't seem to be able to do that so let's help the children. >> thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors and chair malia cohen my former student with katie tang we could have a reunion one of the

beautiful things of being in a big town smaller city to retain the communities between classrooms and teachers and other school staff when people can afford to stay in town so back in ancient 1985 i taught with a nice studio apartment with 15 and gerrero housing was not an object of solicitation today, we know a change in housing in san francisco and that there is indeed a crisis and this crisis is exacerbated by the fact that has been noted a national state and local crisis in the teacher shortage how is sfusd going to be able to recruit the best and bright i

did have university students to teach in san francisco if they can't see a way to dig down with roots in the city and maybe have the audacity to raise a family almost a growth the number of omgz is seven hundred in 1906 perhaps the worst housing crisis in history this city historians note radical around the disposed and the homeless in tents and the tripod communities and we rebuilt this city burn ever brerg into a historic gentrification and disruption of school community that is a great piece of legislation it is one -

>> thank you to my left is. >> san francisco free market affordable housing for our teachers why not build the the police force own their housing village no four story high poor village and can't provide housing with the teachers low income or free housing just for teachers see as a teacher they will work like a nonprofit organization career see with our children of the energy the activities someth
