11:04 am
success of that hard work just justin that did a job ab 2374 approved by the allergic and the governor will grant construction manage procurement authority to the transportation authority specifically for work on the yerba buena island retrofit and what made it a exclamation is the addition on behalf of placinger for federal aid bridge replacement in the american river called the james yankee bridge they're okay with moving forward with transportation authority and have full support of transportation that's the full success.
11:05 am
>> your delivery team it excited we're suggesting that ab x one 26 by essential committee chair francisco's is added as a watch a $7 billion annual program for transportation funding focusing mainly on fix it first and state of good repair for state and local roads it has should relatively high levels of new gas taxes and so forth the reason we recommend watch a converted effort to collaborate with the fellow members of the legislature to bring down the costs and put this system together that might attract the 2/3rd's vote and a special session bill if this year changes we'll be able to come back and alert you to those changes and you'll take a formal
11:06 am
position at a point that's the recommendation of staff and a number of bills you took support or opposition during the year and in your packet a kind of summary of those bills and how they fair i'll point out a couple of key ones you had elected to support mtc ab 516 by mr. mullins that deal with the temporary license plates for new vehicles to be sort of the use of those temporary plates accelerate putting those vehicles in the system so on toll facilities they don't get free passage and ab 1574 you support this bill with regulation of tour buses this one didn't move forward
11:07 am
a different measure moves forward and i'll cover that in a second was left on the in active fill and supported ab 1591 the chairman frazier the regular session has adjourned that bill is not viable but ab x-126 the bigger robust passage the second of mr. allen's bills first ab 2 supporting one and later ab 1645 the subject of opposition that deal with shuttle loading and unloading failed passage in time before the session adjourned, however, i would appoint did introduce a bill special session so if we get to a point the special session is reengaged a possibility i'll try to move
11:08 am
that legislation a lot lee through the focus is not on the thirty or 40 bills beyond the scope of the transportation bill we'll be monitoring that closely the ab 1677 which is mr. ting's bill is the measure relayed to the tour buses that passed the legislature and that provides the portfolios protocol to make sure the safety inspections are done in time it is similar at the end of the day to mr. chiu's bill i did mention mr. chiu's ab 7 the supported bill and in addition another relayed c gmc that related with the reject projects that the state can undertake on the states from 6
11:09 am
to 12 that passed and one you supported. >> and i think those are the highlights i wanted to brurngs and an overall bring you up to speed in june the governor issued a proclamation s x special session one and fall there were two or three major hearings around the state to understand the nature of the problem confronting the local government in terms of funding for state of good repair for the systems subsequent to that legislation was introduced in regular session and some in special session this at this time under fraziers legislation is the one we recommend putting a watch on development in concert with the
11:10 am
chairman of the transportations they're no like mind but to work together to bring some of the taxes that will garden more legislative support. >> what is mr. fraziers district. >> it is basically from saloma to east contra costa county it is unusual for a special session to continue even through in the rule continue technically until the end of the technical legislation end that journeyed for the recess at the end of august it would run the course to the ends of november and focused discussions between the speaker and the pro tem and other speakers in the legislature and waiting until a day or to undertake an attempt
11:11 am
to ask the legislation i've referenced and other legislative that emerge in the period i know a lot of interest in cap & trade in may and august auction was dashed a lot of hopes they failed to identify now revenues they've retained one billion dollars for unexpended cap & trade revenues and then this summer spent $9 million of that that left $900 million of funds in cap & trade waiting pending my future thought he next auction how they those auction revenues fair in the meantime the couple of key programs that were funded with part of 9 four-hundred million dollars that was adopted included one and $35 million to
11:12 am
continue for the transit rail capital program the had issued a list of projects this it summer they intend to fund this money will insure with the funding is available for the next couple of years until we see where cap & trade goes and an automation augmentation and on the agenda this month in the process of including that additional $10 million as intended and finally there was a new program called transformative community that was ushered in by a los angeles legislature with one and $40 million but on the heels of governor approving the funding and the new program bill
11:13 am
an issue by the growth council in their rule making they intend to provide 50 percent of one and $40 million to the projects in fresno no and 25 to la was the third site yet to be selected so it will pay to be watching and monitoring that regulatory process they had their first open hearing yesterday and several more steps to go through i'll be collaboratively with our staff and making sure they have update information. >> can you explain what they mean by transformative community autopsy they're looking for planning and pofshl implementation projects of host of projects in a particular small portion of community they hope that 2 transforms the quality of life and produce the c s g that integrated has a mix
11:14 am
of projects that come together to i'm not sure the right word but to - >> it is more each one builds on each other not only on integrating but expands the g h reductions. >> knowing how huge la county is that is a drop in the bucket one and $40.40 percent in fresno and . >> i'm not sure how fresno came to the forefront but discussions between the mayor's office and the administration because all through the spring and summer we watched this budget develop and not sure a cap & trade program the mayor the current fresno
11:15 am
mayor was at the all the hearings in the and when this strategic rule making came out was earmarked for fresno i'm surprised but surprised they've been so forth coming. >> there are. >> couple of other issues i was going to talk about the trade bail that is only for backdrop 0 i'll focus on that by way of background legislation to earmark some of the federal money for the programs around the state and the chairman of the assembly transportation committee supported legislation to mirror the process we use for proposition 1-b that essentially gave each region a target so the mtc had a target for trade funding i only mention that has that
11:16 am
bill was nearing the end of last night session pretty late and another issue potentially more for the delegation of night club by a to the california to process rod and documentations and records of decision that has more of a pilot program with a sunset date at the end of this year and when the regular session was winding down none of the 3 bills that had been moving through the legislation were in the position to move forward and a issue to put 2 into the bill that moves along that fell apart on senate floor is night club by
11:17 am
a documendocumenta documents th can't push the sate to the felt level so a focus in the special section if it fires up and comes to fruition to try to extend this and it is a no 9 a k345ik9 complicated matter but that brings my presentation to a close and looking forward to next year i'm informed by staff they believe that san francisco mta will be pursuing the acknowledged recording legislation of the year
11:18 am
potentially we'll be asked to collaborative with them and in addition the other major thing that will probably emerge mtc measure 3 i assume the staff is working at tweaking that to shape it to the full board for the authority at the mta to move on that i know that they intend to collaborate with the san francisco chairman that chairs the issues i think that might be the venue that a lot of the issues will be sorted out that's a little bit of what to expect. >> commissioner yee. >> thank you, mr. watson i guess you're talking about all ' '. >> i may have gotten i thought that was mta but i may be wrong.
11:19 am
>> and if they're working on it to carry anything at this point. >> we've not been asked to assist i've been given the heads up something to work on in the next couple of months as we get ready for the new year. >> i wanted to thank mtc commissioner campos and i know that as you mention there's xiblth built into the funding and thank commissioner yee for the it is your both safety on the local level and good to see some of 3 at the state level let's open up for public comment anyone wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. thank you so much oh, we have a recommendation on the watch on
11:20 am
the frazier ab x-126 is there a motion on the recommendation there is a motion that has been seconded can we take that without objection? >> i don't know. i know no action needed. >> no action needed. >> okay mr. stamos in essence item. >> item 5 executing a memorandum of understanding with the treasure island development authority for the yerba buena not to exceed nine hundred thousands through 2018 and authorizing the executive director negotiate payment terms for or agreement terms and agreements an action item. >> and a report. >> eric deputy director happy to report i want to start with an update on the y b i ramps the
11:21 am
item before you is a construction contract change order related to that item. >> the picture tells the story the good news we are nearly complete with the new westbound on and off ramps of yerba buena island we're explicit reaching 95 percent and within the budget of 63 allocation and also happy to report we're meeting the disadvantage goal the ramps with planned to be open that last week in october we were finalizing the dates depending on the rain in the forecast but targeting the weekend of october 22nd to open up the on and off ramps westbound. >> just a little bit of final detail the construction is
11:22 am
complete we have some final local roadwork to tie-in and also some sdlaip we have a ribbon cutting that is schedule for friday, october 21st you got an invitation and indicated the final improvements should be finalized including the landscaping the item before you is what we're describing as a visa point to construct and have been working with caltrans and the treasure island authority for a new visas point on the u.s. coast guard when you look at the sketch caltrain it complete with things in reform very conducted and ready to open
11:23 am
their bike landing that is in orange there and could be the improvements that are extended at visas point are temporary but include a crosswalk to the u.s. coast guard quarters 9 properties which is a strategic location and provides very dramatic visas photographer moms and didn't includes bike beneficiaries and we are working with the bay area toll authority to have a shutter service so folks with messaged and park on treasure island and take the shuttle up to that area that area is a live active construction out there and funding is $2 million for all the improvements which is split 50/50 between the toll authority and the transportation authority

11:25 am
>> commissioner yee. >> thanks for the presentation looking at this. >> yes. >> seems like this is an on and off ramp ongoing west yes. >> off-ramp going west and east is there a off-ramp east. >> actually, let's talk about that that's a good question there was on eastbound off-ramp on the east side of the i'd like has been closed for 10 plus years that will be re-established as part of the overall improvements in the interexchange they'll open later this month on the left side of the photo the eastbound is open and caltrain updated that ramp recently and reopened it but the eastbound off-ramp is yet to be
11:26 am
opened in the latter part of mid to 2018. >> so you will open up on the right-hand lane and the one - >> yeah. till when you come from inform to on time and on budget your heading eastbound a left exit as your approaching treasure island that will be open as an off-ramp a better route to treasure island and the eastbound exit opens the east side of the tunnel will be a better exit if you go up to f b i mountain i forgot what you call it. >> all right. thanks. >> let's open up for public comment anyone wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. and is there a motion to recommend executing in mou with
11:27 am
tida for the visas point and there is a motion that has been seconded and colleagues without objection. >> mr. stamos thank you next item. >> >> the alameda update an informational item. >> good afternoon rachel an informational update on the district 9 neighborhood transportation improvement planning project that is a planning effort that is in response to the portal neighborhood association of 9 district community groups to look at improving public safety and at the combarj of alameda and bay boulevard and others boulevard underneath the ramps where 280 and 101 have an interchange we're at the point in the study we analyze the
11:28 am
feasibility of community preferred concept so the bicycle assess and safety improvements across the intersection and understand the faeblth an understanding of the costs we have a number of rounds of outreach and in the process of doing the final round of outreach this month i mentioned a district 9 planning project and let me talk through and give you ape overview verbally of the component of the improvement and have a bunch of pictures after this slide commissioner campos. >> thank you. can you can you talk a little bit about you've been this is something we've been working on for that quite some time if you can you talk a little bit about the involvement of the community in this process. >> definitely so the idea to do this study is is from the portal neighborhood association we have a started off with a
11:29 am
letter from portal neighbors describing some of the problems were at the supergreen change particularly the pedestrian safety to the farmer's market on the north side of alamany and there's a lot of folks that seek assess to the market west from alamany and south of alamany and south along san bruno in the neighborhoods in the portal and surrounding so there's a lot of gap in the pedestrian and bike network in this area getting from north to south across a.d. man and the farmer's market is a popular designation and we have - a lot of folks assessing the market created an informal path along underneath the ramps there so assess the market there is the only way to get there a
11:30 am
indirect path so those are some of the safety issues that the community so you get are us to address that's where the project that we looked came from is in response to the gaps in the bike network for people trying to assess the market and get though the area on bicycles and folks trying to assess the market and get into the area with the bicyclists and people of all ages especially getting to the farmer's market looking at 8 to safety improvements is volume part of what we need to look at so i mentioned the first set of improvements that could be delivered will include closing the gap in the bike network and the completion of bike lanes of class 2 bike parking spaces and
11:31 am
class 1 bike parking spaces that exist exist to the east and west and connecting to an existing bike lane on bayshore in the location between alamany and putnam the vehicular and right now the main formal assess to the farmer's market on alamany and bayshore a lot of freeway assess and egress travel and on the north side of alamany crossing alamany and finally at bayshore and alamany and then the second phase delivered the path we look at the desire line of both trying to crow alamany from san bruno or on the south on foot and okay. if we wanted to introduce a new assess point by foot to create a safe way to get across with a signal and
11:32 am
pasted path a fixed signal on both sides 0 pedestrian signal ramp where will this need to be and what will 2 look like and what will it cost so i'll show graphic los angeles counties this is a large scale an mulch of the study of the existing condition and the proposed it is a road died throughout - the left-hand side of the - i'm
11:33 am
going to show those areas in for comblal this the intersection of alamany going east with san bruno avenue and this is graphic illustrates first illustrates the bike lane gap being filed on alamany eastbound and it lawless some of the very near term pedestrians improvements that will gone along with that the curve extension pained curb extension with san bruno will be designed with other infrastructure with mta benign paint with the white strips and posts delineating that pedestrian says that a quick way to get this in soon and, of course, those curves could be converted to concrete curve extensions at some point we would also restripe the whole
11:34 am
area there is a lot of conversation for anyone going through there bicyclists and drivers how to position user in our trying to get to bay so shore the 101 on ramp and if you're trying to turn around and restriping that area and rationaleing the laborious will be something that will increase safety for vehicle drivers as well this is the cross section that would end up on alamany the cross section of 2 traffic lanes plus a protected buffered bike lane in each direction is what it looks like to the west and east we are extending that bike lane to a bike lane and a buffer and matching up on either the other side of alamany
11:35 am
in the detail on that looks like if you got alamany westbound and eastbound in the inspection with san bruno at the bottom part of diagram and that depicts the path right now folks are crossing san bruno alamany on the other hand, at san bruno without a signal or cross running cross there walking among side through the roadway on the unmaintained portion of right away and then crossing alamany at the north part of alamany without a signal we can install a form multi used by pedestrians and bicyclists a more direct connection to interrupting and little farmer's market it will put in opening a
11:36 am
crook including having a signal with a pedestrian walk signal at san bruno and alamany and as a matter of law one at the alamany westbound and the timing actually is pretty simple from a traffic flow perspective there is a san francisco general existing just a few yard to the east of this diagram as to these connecter intersects with alamany not a delay for people trying to drive through the area. >> we've completed the traffic analysis with caltrain support and fortunately, we find several enough roadway capacity to accommodate this without increasing traffic sybil and
11:37 am
working with mta to adjust the signal timing and to coordinate the signal timing that will be needed for 240 project with ongoing traffic signal work planned in the area and caltrain review and approval of the changes the striping changes and the signal timing changes to implement these improvements we recommend pursuing sort of two delivery phase-in parallel the first part could be done quickly with mta the striping project the road diets on alamany and then the more medicine term delivery would be of the pedestrian and bicycle multi use path that is because a project that requires more
11:38 am
engineering by dpw dpw as looked at that and we need to design for drainage interest there, there is flooding to the east of the area and make sure that path avoids of flooding and doesn't exacerbate any flooding and install the signals it is a little bit longer than of a project to deliver than the striping project but there are a lot of opportunities for grant fund these improvements first of all, this is an - project and look at it tip and commendation funding and prop k and capital funding to help to support the project a current general fund set aside to continue the next phases of implementation engineering of the project and will be very expensive for a number of grants this is on the vision zero net
11:39 am
high injury network that gives it a leg up against other competing projects the costs are relatively modest for the bike lane and the path together not more than $5 million and in fact, we think that is together certainly significantly less than $5 million altogether we've gotten great compute and involvement from matt and dpw and caltrain honestly and also support and doing outreach from the portal neighborhood association been great in giving us feedback and directing us to outlet groups in the community that has given us a lot of input so family connections particular a couple of different focus group sessions with defy groups within family connections coming up that's where we do a lot of cantonese outreach and going out
11:40 am
to the farmer's market again in month liquor earlier in the spring to get feedback from the folks assessing the market at the market we look forward to any other input or guidance you have for us the next time is after we've completed our outreach and made refinement to the disdain design have a clear implementation path to present thank you. >> commissioner cohen then commissioner campos. >> thank you very much i wanted to pay any compliments periphery that is its been a long time coming how the population is growing in the eastern part of san francisco and particularly in the portland neighborhood a dangerous intersection i'm surprised we haven't have more kaultsdz than we've had to date i want to pass on this compliment to the entire team that worked on the project
11:41 am
i don't have anything to critical or major changes i'll suggest that we implement i just i kind of feel this project can't get done fast enough the faefrmentz is growing and popular and the other element i appreciate you take into consideration is the flooding that happens on an annual basis. >> yeah. >> right at the freeway over on ramp so taking into account is really critical. >> thank you commissioner campos. >> commissioner cohen for those remarks you represented the portland and there know this is a critical issue that goes back many, many years so it is exciting to be here and i do want to thank the staff for all the amazing work in making this happen
11:42 am
in terms of the funding i wanted to make sure we're - we have a birth sense of the timing when do you think you'll come back to us and in terms of the funding options when will we know if these are available so for this project and what's the timeline for that. >> right in the next quarter. >> yeah. in the next quarter that's exactly what we are working on we're doing outreach this month to make sure the design is right. >> okay. >> for everybody and cost estimates reflecting the designs and looking at the grant cycle so we know okay. the next cycle of tsa is coming up in march can we agree mta that's the level of detail on the funding now. >> and then i'm actually -
11:43 am
>> to the executive director. >> i'll add tilly chang to bring forward the capital that you have in district 9 to help advance the design even as we work or solidifying those and take the recommendations and move them straight into design. >> i think a couple of us will turn both pumpkins on january 8th so if there's anything that can be done prior to that whether here at the county transportation authority the board of supervisors but also the regional bodies like mtc if there is something specific source of funding we're tavsht if you can let us know so we're advocating for that. >> commissioner campos through the chair if an
