here sir, any the unfinished business and director's report. >> ed reiskin thank you. i want to take the time for a special recognition award. >> good afternoon mr. chair and members of the public and staff i wanted to take the opportunity the third meeting in a row want to acknowledge somewhat an extraordinary effort by the folks to address some important issues and folks being honored want to step forward the give you a little bit of background soon after you hired me to do this job with the

representatives of the transported workers and unions i learned of something that many of us take for granted is a very issue of great importance to transit operators that's the ability to find bathrooms to used during the course the course of day we use the booms and pause to use the bathroom, when you're a transit prartsd there are on terminals in your route you can do that that's one constraint the second this is arguably part of job that going in that you're sitting if that asset for a duration over the course of your shift but what was most concerning at the terminals not restrooms for them to use and thinking what we take

for granted a basic need to use a restroom that is alarming in 2012 basis of at this point a lot of the restroom issues were dealt with there the real estate division using the commercial locations near our terminals that enter with the access to them turn to our real estate chief person and strengthened her as the chief officer of the sfmta and asked her to put together information to help that is con intended with our employees she put together and team that is recommended by the some of the folks not just from her own division from the department of technology but the construction division and from the transit division but you in

concluding the union reps and they identified in necessarily 2012 there were one hundred and 2 terminals 57 had a gap of no or limit restrooms that's an enormous number so there is different ways to close the gaps anything from a porta potty other options but limited or no restroom facilities so over the course since 2012 when this group was established they have 200 meetings i think that were established they've closed those gaps from 57 down to 14 and we are working to close the rest of those that includes the $6 million capital program that

is part of effort and they've done a lot of work i don't to go into the details it is an extraordinary effort for something that is anyone menu detain when we don't provide that option that has the service as you can't imagine so i am pleased to recognize this group and working with the agencies with the union that represents our employees for the - they're working and achieving a lot in a relatively horticulture amount of time so for some of the folks i'll recognize that are here gary our real estate manager and william part of real estate team, robert the current project manager for the capital part

preceded by mr. cal in a and howard in terms of getting the physical facilities built adrian from communications ron from transport workers and jesse and others from the planning and mary and jeff from transit services lee martinis from the group within transit there are have been a number of other folks that participated from the union and they brought up the issue as well as others within our capital team and jocelyn and christine and jason and jordan and joseph and gwen to make in happy the work is not done but looking at i ask personally what made this effort successful was working on

difficult issues we don't entirely control what we might be able to find it's been successful and so we're looking at not only the successful effort this effort for this purpose but using a process to tackle other challenges i was a little bit long-winded by honor as this group for the great work they've done and many of the others if they want to say a few colleagues, any questions or comments? >> thank you ed reiskin and a pleasure to serve as the operator those are the team operators and others in the past and we've you'll pulled together with consumption so it is really those 3 words and our support within directors and all the employees that helped us with the property agency so others want to say

something and ron and hi, i'm mary and i'm the senior operations manager i want to mention our director john haley that gave us ongoing support in the endeavor i don't think there was ever one of the staff meetings we didn't talk about in terms of the on time performances and providing the basic necessities of our employees going goes without saying so definitely with john's support and the rest of the teams support and the operator and the people that ride our services thank you. >> anyone else. >> good afternoon, sir. >> good afternoon, board ron mitchel transport operators

that is my pleasure as a thirty year veteran to see us go collaborative working together i must say that the group i've worked with and stuck together is with 200 meetings not as often but over the city dealing with the public i want to thank them and the went to workers union for entrust me to bring the facts in for what we need and work together with such a work as we come quite close quite close not always agree but find a way when we say okay. we'll try this that's what is more important so thirty years a long time and i'm thrilling that was not easy we didn't have this as an operator in 787 we - e -

that was few restrooms when your other in the bus and the rail is down but the rail is going up our stress level is going down and especially for the lady operators it is good for them to take care of themselves and be here and we as a group i thing everyone and most importantly thank the public our insistence for allowing us to have this restroom thank you to the public that is really important thank everyone. >> on behalf of the board of directors thank you to the operator and thank you very much for owning work appreciate it. >> (clapping.) >> director reiskin. >> thank you, mr. chair a number of things to cover today first, the disclosure felt labor

agreement a number of different labor unions that represent our employees and about 7 of them many of those are under citywide collective bargaining agreement 7 that are under mta labor agreement and one that was expired and expiring in the fiscal year and the other expiring at the next of the fiscal year with many city contracts that one i was at the transport local 200 with the operators local 200 that represents classes such as transit supervisors, transit trainers, dispatchers and scheduleders and manages and folks working in the control center this is kind of the supervision part of transit operations that represents local

250 and 200 we entered into negotiations with them on march first of this year came to as negotiations went well and we had a tentative architecture with the 248 and local 200 negotiating team they brought that tentative agreement to the membership for vote and the membership voted it down so for the chapter we continued with the arresting tradition two sides went forward into arbitration and got a ruling from the arbitrator within the last week essentially awarded the tentative agreement that we previously negotiated with the team so the significant changes from the current collective bargaining agreement to the one be asked on this is a one year

term starting july one through june 30th of next year that is syncing it up with the other contract and provide for a 3. 2 percent increase wage on july one that is in line with the rest of the city employees and provides two fleeting holidays when they currently only get 3 and most of city's get four or five is it is up as well the taxi investor was recently came under that collective bargaining agreement so we agreed to do an analysis of that job class to insure that it was set at the right level of wage for the right type of work and a new job with the union and finally tightened up the

grievance this is really good for both sides. >> the funding impact is about $1.8 million that was into our budget so what we're doing today former dloefrs to the board and available on the website and chapter requires it be any agreement submitted and desolated to the public 15 days before approval before the end of year for your consideration to approve it happy that the what is before you we negotiated with the norwalk team local 200 on the website and we'll be for your consideration so the progress is good and moving on to some other things

that ma sonic avenue is something we've spent a lot of time and i don't know 2012 or so it was around 2012 it operationally is about to move into construction this month we'll be brown and black for public works that did it before and public works is delivering it in conjunction with us you may recall this project was community initiated in 2008, with the ma sonic project and that will build a safer month sonic up to geary is it so ma sonic is one of the high injury corridors near the top if 2009 to 2014 and were one hundred and 13 traffic

collisions on ma sonic so and geary including 14 pedestrians, 4 bike collisions 2 people died on ma sonic so this is a very significant project for a lot of reasons and change the character the street that will change it i think from a kind of muni freeway that divides neighborhood into a neighborhood street that works well and primarily addresses the safeties issues with the one hundred plus 13 collisions some were fatality and the landscaper with the trees and shrubs and pedestrian scale sidewalks and raised bicycle lanes and the street will be repaved after the sewer system and water system is

underground and loofsz sidewalk obnoxiously crossing distances and enhanced bus stops may recall the bicycle lanes were with the bus stops and there was a conflict san francisco public works has accident pipeline and certainly this month is a 2 month duration project that our staff working with public works just completed an underground outreach this was a lot of outreach in the planning phase and construction was another significant round of outreach 82 thousand postcards mailed to residents and door to door to ma sonic residents and two on the corridors lots of information delivered to local institutions and cafes

and combablz set up in the panhandle and talking about the project that information we held a precircus public open house end of may with public works and the puc to further help us understand what is coming and get their feedback more than one hundred and thirty folks that attended we have updates that mta.org slash ma sonic people can sign up for updates with a huge project and make it safer and great to be there and a little bit of construction during the construction and working with public works to make sure we can minimize that but really looking forward okay moving on just want to update you think smart city challenge something i've

mentioned a fooments close to cities that applied through the department of transportation western identified as one of the 7 finalists and the concept for the challenge from the u.s. dot for us to define what it means it be a smart city to be initiative technology and driving cars and connective vehicles and other in any technologies related to transportation to advance safety, and particularly ladders of opportunities to deal with inquickest in our city and it comes with $40 million to winner from the u.s. department of transportation and $10 million from the community that is heated by paul allen and focused

an electrical vehicles and match with the 10 we were one of the 7 that were announced on march 12 we undertook the development from that financial lifted to develop an application that was submitted on may 24th in partnership with the mayor's office and university of california berkley a lot of excitement and numerous partners who have pledged kind contributions of tech support with $150 million you put that together with the 50 from the feds the potential of a lot of money and leveraging and bringing in to the city to help invest in a system for the city's future one key aspect we in turn take the challenge that didn't come into the city here's what you do what will work in our city we'll

bring that down to the neighborhood level what will work and in your neighborhood to use the challenge process template in order to issue that challenge to our neighborhood and asking be tdr in seeing chapter at some level of automated vehicles through technology to book and pay for the transportation those are some of the ideas that are out there that we're seeking to pilot should be successful and been a lot of out of this process so- but understanding to that end we hosted in california transportation secretary on may 18th and submitted our

application on thursday the mayor travels to washington, d.c. to make the final pitch for other cities and we expect a decision on that late this summary been angle extraordinary effort and city agencies particularly uc berkley and other nonprofit and segment are partners putting together this san francisco proposal that is pretty exciting and groundbreaking stuff and finally i thought i'll mention has about been out in the public realm that there are a couple of chapter amendments we're introduced at the board of supervisors but have relevance to our agency just wanted to let you know about those two in particular one of of them is something we worked on together with the county of transportation authority and the mayor's office and a number of

supervisors office that sets aside general fund revenues for transportation and for homeless services about $100 million for transportation and $50 million to homeless services over 25 year period that the transit transportation funds would be dedicated to street resurfacing and affordability and infrastructure needs and also programs like muni forward and regional transit needs and vision zero safer streets and investments so very much in the core of things we're trying to do that with agency i mentioned our budget was assuming i guess we'll come forward and over accommodate it for the level should this chapter be agreement pass

but i'm hoping it gets to the ballot it will kind of plug that gap that we assumed in our capital budget you've approved and now before the board of supervisors the other chart amendment we didn't permeate in but makes changes captor changes to the governance and the board currently as you know all 7 members of the board are in the mind by the mayor and conformed by the board of supervisors this chart amendment gives the mayor 4 nominees to this board to be subject to the board of supervisors confirmation from the board of supervisors - so we'll splitter the appointment for other divisions and also change the threshold of which the board of supervisors can reject the mta budget roadway it

takes more than the majority of supervisors it takes 7 of the 11 and this proposal makes it set for the majority of board of supervisors to reject our proposal want to let you know the who chapters the board of supervisors has until the end of july to the ballot just wanted you to have those and we've worked closely with the mayor's office and also the board of supervisors on the chart amendment so we're happy to see that and excludes myself presentation. >> members of the public would you like to speak. >> can i talk about the masonic project i heard about the open house and i'm about 5

blocks or 6 blocks from that this was a pretty wide region and looking forward to this project i think that is going to give people an idea what we can do to make our streets better for everybody looking forward to that. >> members of the public none here from the agency. >> any general public comment the members of the public can present. >> (calling names). >> game-changer ms. chin and i'm from i wanted to talk about the terryville project sorry i'm kind nervous that was every each other block - so

people working like one block or get on the bus for the new proposal that will be three or four blocks to get a start in this case if a person it is already taking two or three blocks walk 5 or 6 blocks to get on the bus is that possible you see the person gets on the u.s. bus pass by you because your stopped and - this the inconvenience the neighborhood especially for the senior people they have difficulty walking 1, 2, 3 or blocks that's my point for me this is the key to the public transportation is a service to me it is clear downgraded

service so one or two years to trade off consider safety or - so by moving 9 stops for the out of bound total only save two or three not worse for the safety purpose by building an island i don't see that is very effective if we're standing on the island maybe okay. but people cross the sidewalk can get hit by the ongoing bus we want to commend talk about the new plan it is a stop without consolidating. >> thank you very much. >> thank you very much ms. chin. >> thank you very much. >> next speaker is going daniel (calling names). >> good afternoon good afternoon. i'm a resident of treasure island for the last

two years first of all, thank you to the board for increasing the travel it is not easy to get a ride at night i want to talk about an important problem a lot of bus drivers are not showing up for their scheduled stops i'm talking about their scheduled stops for the bus didn't show up at all a frequent problem for the last year and in fact, from march 28 there was 4 buses that didn't come at all and fifth bus it came so many people were waiting for the but bus i couldn't get know the business plus a frequent problem and happens various times of the day and inviting night i almost miss my flight to washington at one point and want to mention that treasure island is a bigger

problem one reason a protecting neighborhood people can't afford cars and taxi and ryder and unique the fact i believe the only neighborhood in san francisco that you need a motoristized vehicle and everywhere else you need to cross the bay bridge in treasure island so times i'm late for work and made numerous complaint and get a form letter in my e-mail we've looked at this and nothing done and mention a - people on treasure island that are suggest to government code if they make those revenues they shouldn't get in trouble i don't know what the solution to call the directives in - or something that might involve the public i'll be willing to meet you halfway and do what i can

i'm sure the public will two too. >> next speaker, please. >> (calling names) good afternoon. >> i'll be using the overhead okay my name is eileen i'm here to read a resolution into the public record before i do i'd like to put this resolution into context for fiscal year 2016-2017 the mta budget has 200 and $83 billion for taxpayer money the public's money i will begin the resolution now whereas the sfmta muni forward is responsible for statewide project and it is responsible for lives in on mission street like merchant getting deliveries

and patrons not able to park and shop locally and decline people decide to avoid shopping at mission and whereas moving on for lombard and geary and california geneva and ocean and stockton will create negative impacts solar to mission street the proposed muni forward will potentially create lives in to mission district whereas the sfmta budget is supplemented by jd money and whereas the board of supervisors has control over appropriately general fund monies to the sfmta, whereas the board of supervisors has the ability to place general funds money on refers that are allotted to the sfmta appropriation cycle therefore, be it resolved the coalition for san francisco neighbors urges the board of supervisors to place $25 million of general

fund allocated to the sfmta for fiscal year on reserve until the negative impacts and geary and california and ocean and masonic and other streets are revolved to 9 satisfaction of the community i have two copies. >> thank you thank you >> next speaker, please. >> the next speaker herbert wiener followed by tom and paifsh. >> herbert wiener mta representing 3 departments of transportation may very well have the roots in this methodology the service was the 3 headed hand that gautdz the gazing gates of hell it consists of 3 departments with the taxi division all 3 departments are alcoholic and hell has broken loss in the sections

muni is so unreliable and breakdown in accident and parking and traffic is more difficult than before and taxis are running the risks not protected of likes of uber and lyft and ryder their medallion fees shouldn't be instituted truly mta is guarding the gates of hell and what is the remedy it would seem appropriate to break up the mta in order to help the problems where each division can be addressed mta is too large and it catches up the things that return to hiding we have to terminate mta and relegating to the administration both sides history i modest add that last night i walked home from chris i didn't field $2 million to the bus stop i

hope that is not the mta version of walk san francisco thank you thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> next is (calling names) the last person to submit a card. >> good afternoon. >> how many minutes. >> two. >> our clock is still not working tom our first impression two januarys ago did uber drivers said are you charged $5 and day and they said no director reiskin kind of end that policy we don't know from the mayor know knows about first impression i'm on your side okay rattles the rattles are getting - the labor union should be talking about this to you, you

guys the rattles are all around the front cage of the directives on the 67 and 72 and include the seats for the cheers and they rattle bang, bang bang and it even if it is 15 miles per hour this needs to be addressed we need to talk to the crew the only roads their going to pave need to be the bus lanes those rattles our astronomers is at the factory their rattling in not worse than the old 5 buses counts of buses nuance before you find a quiet one and count the busses in between the next quiet bus van ness is working the elevators are working i wish i all take a stroll on the elevator up and down a new door

i'm half the size of you people we looked at the floor when was it last cleaned a lot of once a month and take it up the surprise is a surprise when you go back up if you do it please you'll know what i'm talking about is that me? okay. >> thank you >> next speaker, please. >> patricia (calling names) >> good afternoon yes hi, i'm here to discuss the community bus shuttle on golf and bush this is not been before you folks, however, it is in operation as of yesterday we went to the engineering

hearing and were told that would be heard before the broadwell small business somebody indicted to make it a temporary event he went out to this high injury corridor and a lot of seniors the busses are coming three or four at that time, and stopping in the traffic lanes and letting people on and off and stopping and blocking the traffic behind them they won't go through the light they sit there i saw a reason from a person going from bush the bus didn't look and we almost had a crash this is a very dangerous area and i am personally insulted they went ahead and set this up before people indicating came to you folks so the neighborhood

can talk to you we had to get them to stop before pine 72 hours a huge danger we had to talk to them this is such a high pedestrian injury area and got all the seniors and the noise it is just awful i have numbers of buses i'm happy to share them with everyone and called them into carlie pain and never can get information on the enforcement we need enforcement before somebody gets >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> (calling names). >> good afternoon. >> good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, first of all, i want to thank director reiskin for the terryville it is running and a pleasure to ride and getting us

ridiculous parking notices to stop anyway, i'm a resident of the terryville corridor i represent myself and others residents we're not happy with the present plan for the eld terryville restriction i've reviewed the previous didn't make sense the new one is not maipg but we want fallout review and restriction on this if you really want to reduce pedestrian automobile the first one get the sfpd off their butts and get the officers to enforce the laws on the books as a citizen taxpayer i don't want to see money spent for the automobile collisions down from

zero to zero and not a lot of decoration on the streets and a common places plan we hope you'll continue to review this issue and presented to the taxpayers and merchant along the terryville corridor otherwise we know what options with open to the citizens you don't want to go dooerdz we don't either. >> next speaker, please. >> (calling names). >> good afternoon. >> good afternoon. >> mary speaking for the people that can't be here today i just have a quick question on the regular calendar item 11 is that still on the calendar. >> then i can speak about that. >> yes. >> well, your pretty well aware a lot of issues with that particular one and i'll just mention be one

standing after they've walked several blocks on those buses not working for people who have disabilities elderly people and people are tired after working eight or ten hour days this is like a chapter amendment coming up in november people are really twisted over the top i've gotten ever be mad at you at this point there are a few not this is good much in you really want to work with other things - >> thank you very much thank you very much. >> okay. anyone else care to address the board seeing none, now with the concept calendars we removed 10.5 and director reiskin the points will treasure island an interesting one with

the board of supervisors and the mayor to adopt on amendment to establish a - establishing the transportation demand management. >> hello ms. payne good afternoon. >> good afternoon electronically carli with the sfmta land use development and transportation integration manager and i'm here today with some colleagues corey teague the zoning administrator from the planning department and michael schwartz principal planner with the san francisco transportation authority for the transportation sustainability program i know you've heard newcomers presentations about the sustainability program over the last several years the transportation sustainability

program is a multi year effort to focus on the improvement of the transportation as the city grows with a multi agency project and been with the delightful partnership the transportation sustainability asks new development to do it's part as the city grows and we're excited to report - i have a presentation i didn't even check it out i'm sorry. i'm so excited to bring it to thank you (laughter) please excuse me - >> that's the cover slide here we are so two of our 3 components of the tps have already been implemented the first one is the

invest component this past november the city adopted the transportation sustainability fee that collects money from new development to invest in transit we're collecting that money from development and in march the planning commission adopted a resolution checking off the aligned box to stop using a level of service as a measure of environmental review and adopting the vehicle miles traveled consistent with the state guidelines and looking at environmental impacts so instead of counting cars and not doing much will them we're looking how projects generate they generate isn't it true driving trips and trying to mist and looking at the third component the shift that integrates transportation amenities onsite to reduce the

amount of time and the shifts lifts the components by supporting people in using transit and walking and bike and other sustainable modes and reducing the miles traveled from projects so a little bit about the context we're growing in san francisco and we just can't add compatibility for cars into the network eve we could that's not 2, 3, 4 alignment with the city for the transit first and our green house gas emissions and health and safety goals we need to expand in a sustainable transportation and use the exit system for effective and support people in making the choices to get with the option of getting into a vehicle. >> the good news and that is the trentsdz shows san

franciscans want two too preference is on the rise between 2006 and 2014 the city added 80 thousand commutes and those are in single non-occupancy vehicles and contrary to the historical growths in car free households is in growth in other covets households the past about a first day of households were car free and thirds of the growth in san francisco in household between 2014 were counted for household that don't own a car. >> the shift effort looks at take into consideration the trips and looks at the city goals and what role can people keep on moving the answer we're

putting forward is transportation demand management over tndc i'll be acronym free the involvement focuses on the management is a physical measures and incentive and information and tools that sustain the trips and those are controlled by developer or property owner that focus on the residents workers and other i want to take a pause to clarify there are a lot of much broader world of transportation management and mta plays a role this effort is really focused on new development and lulled we're not talking about the large universe of tndc we're proposing an amendment to create a transportation to management ordinance for development and before we get into the details of what that ordinance requires and includes i want to

give you a sense of where we are right now in san francisco with relationship to transportation to management and development we have a pretty okay basis to start off with some projects are subject to tndc and the planning code is based their use and size or location like required bike parking or car share parking things like that from the projects includes the transport to management beyond what was required generally tacked on environmental mitigations or improvement measures men and women they don't fundamentally change the transportation program of the project we do have some requirements addressing how much parking is provided and how parking is provide for ununbelievably the

residential projects and parking maximum memorandums in san francisco but generally the requirement on the books are if you it applies to you one-size-fits-all in that way and we do not have a compliances program to make sure that they're the 34urs are implemented and for sfmta this is a really important part of the agency responsible for transportation and making sure that people get where they go insuring that what is required developments actually happen is critical to us so in crafting this policy approach we looked best practices across the country and found lessons first having a comprehensive approach to transportation to demand management for development and

having that linked to a goal knowing what we're trying to achieve and thinking about that identifying and integrating the tndc measurements at the beginning of the development process they shape the travel behavior and the analysis of that project listening how much parking is provide at a site with the transportation to demand management my colleagues will talk about that but we know that and literature has shown us that parking management and parking mulch is the most influential factor in how much people drive and so that it make sense to link that and providing flexibility and how to meet the targets is the best practice allowing projects to both

recognition and respond to the neighborhood to consent and the market they're trying to take the and the plan with staff and funding to support those staff is the best practice we're definitely learning from i'll pass on to making from the transportation authority that will talk about this ordinance. >> good afternoon mr. schwartz. >> thank you carli and board members we're happy to walk you through what that entails and other projects the ordinance is come prietdz of 3 parts the take the on the miles traveled and have each development to achieve the stoirt goals to the development network. >> i want to come up h catch up and make sure your

understanding this this is a function of our choice how to travel and how far that car is traveling and how many people are in the car and so the lower your vehicle miles travels the lower your air pollution and emissions and again why it is a good measure and carli explained it earlier so the goal on the onsite development to reduce those emissions and as carli alluded to the biggest indicator of whether or not people are drive in cars and private vehicles are related to parking and this is based on national best practice reach and littered and local studies and basically shows the more parking an area

has the more people will drive and having dedicated services you, your more likely to drive it is fairly intuitive active but supporting this idea and in addition research has turned the corner on causation if you build for parking your endoug more trips and k3450789 the trips by car what we did a number of land use types of plans reviewed and we've 2350u7b8d them into 4 categories with the residential and other which is a small amount of development projects that comes the spiritual pdr and based on those we set target based on the number of parking spaces so category a it is 13 points continue zero and 4

parking spaces for each additional two parking spaces an additional point added to our target the other the base number is 20 and zero parking spaces the targeted is an additional point for parking spaces so this is saying if you build more parking you'll require to do more tdm measures to offset the incentive to drive provide by that parking the way we're having people reduce the vehicle miles traveled and choose from the best projects as well as in order to meet those targets. >> we've identified the 26 measures that are bundled into 8 categories and there's a range of effectiveness bans literature and our research on the lower

ended realtime transportation and muni in a lobby people catch their buses figure out ways to park and public transit subsidies for effective and as mentioned a few times reducing the park parking will be better if you're well blow the average in the neighborhood and as we move the program forward we'll be evaluating the effectiveness and the research is saying we need to fine-tune we'll do that has we get more information over time i'll i'm going to turn it over to to korea who will critical lists how that works. >> hi, i'm corey teague the zoning administrator with the planning department and before this commission last year we were presenting the

transportation fee we grateful that was anonymously supported a key point we tried to design this as a straightforward as possible for the development community and staff the first interaction that the community has with the program is an interact active tool online and we've developed a preliminary version online so for the public can go ahead and start to toy and understand how is it works before the program is formerly adopt the idea is to allow developers to think about this issue critically and plan for this far in advance of when their first application. >> so let's look at on project how it works at the project

level we saw the dog patch is an actual area and this is the residential of 44 dwnltz and 12 parking spaces the target score is 14 points and this is important to note this some of the measures to select from the requirement is in the planning code you don't get to see your - meeting the code for bike parking and unbundling from the parking unit will get you two points ranting the code is requiring 3 of the 14 points so the next question how many points can a parking point this thoughts to look at the surrounded neighborhood to get

points it must be at the or blow the neighborhood parking rate i get one point and the more below the neighborhood parking for 11 total points in this particular area the parking rate is .6 parking spaces per dwelling unit. >> so in this example the development has proposed to park at want 3 spaces per unit it gets into the of the 14 points more to be done so we randomly selected ♪ scenario for the sign point number one required car share

parking two points and tdm for the refrigerates 14 points if we change this project instead of 12 parking spaces parking at 33 spaces as you can see the take the changes from 14 to 16 poinin this scenario they no points for parking sunlight they have to make up for that for other measures in this example beyond what it is required to achieve points again, the parking they do additional car share beyond this version felt sample project for tdm and despite of their housing units onsite for additional points and allows this to

achieve the 16 points so how will the review process work again, the project sponsor for any individual project works for the tdm plan and shifts and changes during the review of the project in the planning department once that is finalized the tdm plan will be finalized if so principally permitted we'll approve they staff level, however, if needs to go to the planning commission they've trigger that will be required to do then the tdm plan itself will be constituent as a condition of approval and that's important because the condition of approvals are reported on the deed of the property that is memorialized for future property owners >> so michael went over the

first two components of project the target and memo but that's all paper unless we implement it question started to implement the strategy that will do this is unlike more requirements we created an active robust monitor reporting component and helps us achieve the adaptation. >> so how will this work together the monitoring and reporting is different two phase a preoccupancy the inspection of the physical measures before the projects are issued so if you said you'll on do 12 parishes and do way understanding signage and bicycle parking the staff makes sure those are physically provided before their occupy the

building and the second it ongoing the phase two of the program and includes the riders reporting by the property owner as well as site inspectors by city staff studio sure that all the tdm measures are in place and any proton project out of compliance of the tdm that falls into the planning code another important part of our ongoing compliance phase to the program i'll touch on that michael referenced not only are you aware of outside research to tweak the memo and our measures but also be collecting information data from all the individual projects over time to get an idea how well the individual projects are working within san francisco and give us more information how we may want to you know tweak the project in

the future to make sure we're achieving that so with that, i'm going to turn it over to to carli. >> thank you thank you just to wrap up giving us a sense of the outreach we've done to date and the next steps there's been extensive outreach on the transportation sustainability program at large including referencing looking at this shift component the transportation amendment and then over the last 6 months we've established outreach specifically on the proposed transportation to management ordinance to different community and neighborhood groups and the development community other stakeholders, and various board commissions on april 28th the planning commission initiated the legislation for the very well

initiated so the planning department is and planning commission is the sponsor we will be doing additional outreach and engagement in advance of going back to the planning commission for their documentation hearing on july 14th and then after that that will move into the board of supervisors for the legislation process corey noted i want to make sure you have that on the record the draft tool online on the site hosted by the planning department staff and our memo is online and the next several weeks additional documents will be uploaded for review and well in advance of the planning commission action and with that, we would like to ask for this board to support and endorsement and i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you members of the

board questions or comments. >> thank you tom nolan. >> thank you and congratulations this is exciting i know you've been working on for a long time and seen this a couple of times in a couple of different ways and excited is got this far i know those are the kinds of things to have in place to help the communities understand and accept the project when we're urging them to create a project that has lower parking in the past and people complained about they don't have the measurements in place in older projects with parking that would be great i think all of this will be easier moving forward and accommodating more growth the question that i had two questions one on i'm not trying to said a little bit more what happens when a project is trying to ask for more parking than

points available for, you know, for accommodating all the impacts they have and talk about more. >> if i understand your question what if a project by code can't have more parking than a large project and can more parking than the points that that accommodates we thought about that and our approach is that in order to - there's one way to comply reduce the park that's on the memo eve their coming forward with lots of parking the other they can not move forward if they're parking is above the neighborhood rate so at minimum they would have to be at or

below they're parking and even if that means nurm they're off of the chart of the number of parking spaces i'll turn to my colleagues 3 might be able to explain that more clearly did i do that and it's built spot code they have to effectively not exceed the neighborhood rate. >> yeah. >> that's great okay. and the second question i have thank you for that the second question i have is the results will be one more is that in a situation you've got lots of that concludes my remarks that i think you know despite all of the solutions you've been able to cook up all the measures in place i suspect that parking will be generating revenues in

no way, shape, or form and wondering if you thought about how to capture that value to enhance to the rest of the community in some other way in addition to mitigating the impacts i suspect the value of parking will expand in this city to increase and it seems to me that there could be value in that we capture then and mitigate the impacts of this parking is generating increasing more congested city. >> am i clear what i'm trying to say. >> what i think you said can we consider a memo about paying a fee did that - >> exactly. >> we did consider a fee type of option like a fee out or in

lui fee and ultimately we really wanted to insure that projects are effecting the trips on from their residents and tenants and visitors and not saying well, my folks can have cars but you over there can't drive we've considered and wanted to make sure that new development is included in the measure. >> the other part in addition to that accommodating maybe good premature for that the context right now, i'm thinking in the long run the parking spaces will be i'm thinking about the unit of parking spaces in any building for example there was three or four hundred dollars a month now i'm words it operationally is there a way to capture that in the future when we are inspecting thing i deeply

appreciate. >> it looks like any colleague has the materials. >> i'll not go that far but this board is well aware in the case of non-residential there is a parking tax that is paid on valuable space 100 percent of the values in the way they're sold on a daily basis and raised an interesting point with respect to residential per space basis and the cost that that but you know could be brought back a yeah. >> i'm not asking for it i trust your great work but make sure we're not overlooking the opportunities to mitigate more traffic particularly with respect to the value of the parking spaces that is as things get more and more expensive and it gets more and more important to make sure we have the only

people that are driving have to captures the revenue the managing of the transportation. >> sarah jones from the planning department behind me and sarah jones i'm the director of vital planning at the planning department staff all of the measures that are in the memo are specific that reduce the vehicle miles traveled and actually, the number of points you'll get as michael mentioned the relative assignment has to do with with the relative effectiveness with the miles traveled we tried to keep that demonstrateable length and that measure. >> i'd like to comment. >> yeah. exactly and you know further, of course, a huge part of the program over the tps is the sustainability fee so you

know we have project sponsor both putting in measures to reduce car use and paying a fee for overall fees for the transportation system they want. >> that's great, thank you. >> i want to touch on that it sounds like just to be clear we understand and work on this it sounds like our expecting the value of the parking to go up and capture that value. >> of future packing. >> right we can't from collect an impact fee and a mitigation fee and can't kind go back in time and capture that impact it is more about increasing the value over 7, 8, 9 rather than recapturing the property and doing on up zoning and something

like that that will be something like a tax we could reconvene the value it changes every time and mentioned we have the tsf that has the idea that never pertained to residential the residential development has a significant size we'll, getting impact fees for that. >> as someone that walking around and recognizing and realizing how critical space is in the city from the lens of hours hoping we're looking for ways to maximize the space for housing and creating a robust transportation system we can assess instead of be compelled to operate a car in places -

thank you, again thank you for this work. >> good presentation i'm excited to see it it move to the next process and a couple of questions on the neighborhood parking rate it is like 16 is that based on actual units in the existing housing or based on car overflow room rate of the neighborhood. >> and where i'm getting to the question i know many in my neighborhood we have a low neighborhoods parking rate i think of the number of parking garages. >> that's a good question part of ongoing research we know that sf parking has an effort to have the spaces and their pubically available on-street parking we're trying to figure out how many of the spaces are available

and surveying and looking at the department of building inspection files and looking whether you use or park a car but have the spaced available whether you park your car there maybe from point owe we can't necessarily control at the development and approval stage tell the jury you can control and use it as a national parking space the neighborhood is really parked as a lower rate effectively as future iteration. >> that's my second question the adopt active use as they have 20 parking spaces and maybe only 5 of them are used and to your point the residents can use them maybe for other things will

be regulations about storing things in parking spaces are they built into the future for storage or parking spaces. >> sure the short answer is yes. because they, use it a small amount they can rent to residents within a short business radius of the project itself under the planning code but request for permanently to storage for the units and more bicycle parking and other uses of this space if they determine it is not procreate as a parking space and they need is this definitely is on option. >> that's all all any questions thank you. >> yes. i have a couple of questions thank you for the great work and general question about the good parking space our feasibility topic are blue

handicap are they assessable and treated differently than regular spaces. >> these are in the excluded he we circulate and then i was wondering in terms of the presentation and this materials that staff will have a free occupancy space is that the planning department and i'm - yeah. i was curious who will be doing that enforcement. >> we have had the team that is worked on this is the planning and mta and the transportation authority on the other hand, and we've having had convections about that and planning this was in the planning codes and their responsibility they have in their budget to have new ftes to

new positions and part of ordinance a fee an administrative fee that funds the position thinking about the best practices i referenced and making sure their staff but dedicated to the program and there is funding to supportive them is the model we're going for . >> and so we're phil confident that from the staffer ideas takes to the program with a big commitment this will actually get done and our interagency effort to continue to review best practices, and find the model and all that that will be function to oversee the work and make sure that it is being conducted in a way that fulfills the share and mta's is definitely at the table for

that. >> sorry. >> i'm sorry, i wanted to add from the planning department yes. that we do to reiterate what carli said we have the positions in our budget those positions will be funded through the administrative fees and so the money to fund those positions is coming in into the program and can't be used for anything else that's what the planning department is committed to doing. >> i have - one - that's awesome i'm glad to hear that it is comforting i'm excited in terms of being able to treat the menu and hoping this is more essential to people with disabilities to do more assessable transportation options so something to considered as we move forward as

is options are more available. >> that's exciting i totally agree. >> i am not i got to work on this in planning and sometimes project by project basis we were asking people will car share spaces and turning garages into the other things so - in a single-family home or duplexes r or it might have been a storefront i guess the question about the recording is did we look at the tdm impact this is one we don't see over the last thirty years the percentage of overall riser people are owning less cars but not in cars i think that that is something i don't how we're looking at that

in this model and when we are doing the recording and looking at the trips understanding how people take the trips i do think there is more evaluate miles traveled abused of some of the tdms the number and vacuums on the street people might not be owning cars and not getting less congestion and pollution talk about >> absolutely there's not any clear relationship right now documented between tmc we're awaiting the research right now and you know we've heard about if it both sides of the tdm rider. >> shouldn't we be included in our menu and how to deal with

someone that is parking at the site i'll say when we are doing the opposing research to see how those measures work in san francisco and with work each by the following up with projects and doing the way we would be analyzing it we'll be doing trip counts and surveys of residents and workers and visitors to the site that includes asking how you make our trip and some of that local information but i anticipate hopefully that there will be some new research coit in the next couple of years with the months that tells us a little bit more about how these new models of mobility are functioning in our city would do have that right now. >> it's not part of menu you

and correct. >> thank you. >> public comment. >> two members kathy and herbert wiener. >> kathy. >> good afternoon tom nolan and chairs i'm kathy with walk sf and on behalf of the members i'm here to express our support for the transportation demand management ordinance i'll try not to use that acronym as you've heard a lot about the tdm has a goal of reducing the travel trips we're expectative about this this is important because the research shows as vehicle miles traveled increase there are crashes we think this ordinance is important toll tool in the tool box as well as we need all the tools we can get to get to zero deaths by 2024 we

are working to tweak the options and want to see the option for walking more specific and a little bit more robust and sort of having higher points as the first option on the menu is includes the walking conditions and things you can do to increase walking both lighting around the project really encourages walking and trees and greenery we want more things called outside specifically and focused on high injury cords corridors we know this is vital to - we're working with staff we have been working with staff and continue to work with staff to treat overseeing items we're happy about the ordinance and today here to ask you to support

and other dooiksing bodies to adopt it. >> next speaker, please. >> herbert wiener. >> there's a wonderful news snapshot at sea in the film oh, online letter works in a factory and every time he hears horns he overturns tackles and goes b.a. detector those applies to my applies to senate seethes of public it rugs parking spaces and increasing traffic congestion and making driving and automobile market to the tune of increasing parking spaces now traffic congestion has gotten 0 worse over the last two years and parking traffic as not

helped and policies like this to decrease parking spaces and make them more expensive you're creating a massive problem more congestion than ever before this will backfire on everyone and i think you really have to think this through more carefully drivers have a right in moving vehicles and bicyclists. >> and you have to give them equal consideration i don't see a representative from people on this board at all instead it is aimed as motorists and you're going to have less shopping in the city and your going to have more traffic congestion than before trying 92 noon times on 19th

avenue it is ghastly and increase the problem with phobi phobias. >> >> next speaker, please. >> anyone else. >> yes. (calling names). >> tom i'm curious about the template on south beach all a whole new neighborhoods that is built up are we keeping the ratios of the condo and parking spaces are we reducing that or increasing riverside and people that work in the neighborhood have the parking garages those spots will be used to extend the warriors so how many hundreds of parking

spaces for the warriors and parking spaces and garages that work for the hospital and will now say bring our warriors in and like the baseball seen the parking lots around the baseball stadium are high technicality parking spaces and people that can afford it they drive in hair luxury contractors cars and go to warriors games and giants games is quite expensive and it is you have to have money to drive in so i'm speaking is the garage fee when you build a new development are their garage fees because the fees for rich folk from the outside are driving in and use the passing and we need to reduce the - i

love to drive i have a 46 discretionary review i love to drive i've had the the luxury not a liberation to have an automobile we do think - >> thank you, sir. >> next speaker, please. >> >> alice rogers that's the last person. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm alice rogers in the south part of the summit area i'd like to encourage you to support the program but i have some concerns to have which were brought by director brinkman i'm concerned about the

measures offered every two weeks to offset to really make a difference i think that some are - well, first, i appreciate that the program is looking at different manufacture through neighborhoods i think neighborhoods are different my neighborhood is - well, it's different than the observations from other neighborhood in my neighborhoods none need to have monitorers everyone has a smart phone when - i'm concerned about the measures are not broadly discussed to address the impact on the street far for what i think will be surrogate driving you mentioned the tdm fee and

the measures talk about truck deliveries and all of all the ways that cars are getting stuck but not talking about loading zones and tdm leaving people off we know that interrupting transit on our streets so i really think those measures need marry broadly form and can't be done an individual large buildings faces you need to look at it in go big blocks and share. >> thank you anyone else seeing none, what's the pleasure of the board. >> i'm happy to make a motion to approve. >> second i'd like to add it is wonderful to see different agencies work well together appreciative is a motion and a

>> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> the i's have it. north america. >> 13 for the administrative code as to conduct a closed session. we're back in session and ion item 14 announcement of closed session the sfmta board of directors met to discuss the m dell with the case with the city attorney and the board continues the items for the next meeting and item 15 disclose or not disclose in closed session. >> not to disclose and second >> all in favor, say i. >> i. >> the i's have it. we're adjourned .
