substation to power that part of our fleet. while it was eni haved. and it was amazing being in what is like a bat row for our trail rail system out there i learned how we get our power at 12,000 volts and moved to 480 volts and from ac to dc and how what process takes place. and it was cool to see the nuts and bolt of our system. i went to the green maintenance yard. the riyard. and i went to all the different stations this is huge maintenance yard. and the south part of the city a lot of maintenance work happens i met the women and 19 do this maintenance work on our rail cars and in our system and ask questions and participate in in

of the work itself. it was e illuminating when made mow proud of overhaul agency. a lot of people don't realize because we have the historic ricars the part in our system can't be purchased we have to physically make piece of our system by machinists custom by command can do so. people who do thissure specialized so much so it is difficult to find them. we have our internal aprentice program we people went mts and inspire them. i wanted to acknowledge the folks i met on my tour and while i do that i was given as a very large copper is what this is

that powerhouse the motors >> the cars. i don't know how. it does and it broke and so it was redone and the workers decided to give it to mow as a gift. i wanted my board members and the public to pass it around and touch and feel some of the things this make our system work. feel free to pass it and director tumlinfulbive it to the public. i want to acknowledge charles or cho maintenance officer and in my tour of the king substation i met with the traction power group. jim the supervisoring technician. david the power plant supervisor. capitol program and construction senior inspector philipe' lopez. and christopher the department chief maintenance officer. and michael hen row drove me to

and finally a woman who is called the queen of the storeroom. queen of green of evelyn cotton a part store keeper you need a part she knows where they are. she was wonderful. most with the agency for a decade and 20-30 years never met a board and we are excited speak to me about what it is like and had they are working on. i say in closing. a lot of the people that work for us they are proud of the w they do. i'm proud of them. a wonderful visit and glad i did it. did we give that to people? give it to the people. don't steel i want it back. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. so much. director yekutiel. other colleagues unfinished

business. >> thank you. good afternoon. she and her. very good presentation how can we take these and make them more public? i hear you. i can't say i ever been to a substation i'm reminded of my all electric home and see how many kilowatt hours running heat. buff electricity is foundational. i continuing is important to be enlightened about temperature i need to be because i have an all electric sxhoem had some mall electric vehicle from time to time i charge and up get warningy about it. and i'm not from here. but i have been to the cable car museum a few times in new york

city. don't know if you know. there is a transit museum in brooklyn in i decommissioned subway station. andment to know more about the details. direct current this so called not secret learningest railroad station preserved some of these. testimony is provides the electricity. to power scent tracks of the mag 95 cent ledge endary historic station. how can we capture that for muni. because what i am hearing not just about making things work in this tour of our facilities

butti deals that are state low. thank you. why thank you. >> any other commentsers? >> we can go to remote. >> we will move to remote comment not to exceed 10 minutes members wishing to comment dial star 3. no speakers. close public comment. >> item 7 the director's report. >> director tumlin >> good afternoon. today i will cover the valencia, delores state legislation, autonomous vehicle and muni. first valencia we have images we made progress on construction of the pilot valencia bikeway a week ago we activated the new dedicated bike signals a

critical step allowed you to remove the construction do not enter signs and welcomed people in the bikeway. >> we are complete on the striping changes. and the side curves. and we will be fitting those in and every place you see a gap in the side curve. every 20 feet when we are done as well as the median which witting to fill until after our trucks no longer need ghet and out to complete construction. >>y are working on rearranging all of the curb management in the corridor. you know there has been a dramatic up tick in curb side pick up during the pandemic.

prepandemic had uber and lyft and amazon. since then an up tick in door dash and continuing to see an increase in uber lyft and autonomous vehicles the curb space converted to verse types of pick and up drop off's. the business district can function without amortization the median for delivery space. we are getting red to launch 2 critical studies in the month of august. as all you have know we are hoping that 3 years from now this will not be the design for valencia what we are trying to do is buy time while we rethink our original plans. and raise funding for this. a traffic impact study for variety of long-term concepts include one way configurations. options for time day or

permanent pedestrianization of the street and a variety of other ideas that we want said to study. we will start on the public space and life study to understand visions for how the public wants to use valencia from one black to the next. how do we design the street for valence why to fleurish rather than functional. we gotten a tremendous amount feedback and making adjustments as we go long and as we bench the way users are using the street upon even though it is in the complete. we are cordinating with parking control officers for frequent enforcement of the rules mostly taking care of the parking and loading violations there is work needing to be done. we come become in the winters. to present our initial evaluation. another item in the news a good

deal has been the delores hill bombing incident this occurred on saturday. july 8. as most of you then and there has been an annual event in san francisco and starting in the late teens and with the totality in 2020. we were asked to support the district supervisor's office and the san francisco police department to help prevent event from happening or the unsafe behavior that had been occurring to minimize it the question of the district supervisor we have been and the captain installing rumble strips and ceramic markers on delores street to minimize the event. and, of course, the saturday a -- significant events

occurred. that resulted in damage to 6 vehicles. that were vandalized result nothing 70 thousand dollars worth of damage and our rail vehicles out of service for about a week. >> we are continuing to learn from the police department and the supervisor's office about what happened and how to make things smooth next year. a bunch updates on the legislative front i hope you know, the state legislator is in recess until august 14th before that, the governoror signed state budget and trailer bills that allocated about over a billion dollars to transit operating relief across the state that money will cover about a third of what muni needs to avoid service cuts next year. but important low bias time so

we don't need to be contemplaying service cut in this calendar year. which is important. and in the meantime of senator wiener has introduced fb5 tlot save, clean public transportation emergency act raise bridge tells on the state owned bridgeses a dollar 50 terror 5 year and get us through the get on the 26 ballot with a measure that would then bring in real ref now in 27 and is the permanent solution to our growing budget gam the bridge tell requires 2 third support in order to pass. in excellent news. bill 645 member freedmachine's bilt use of the safety camera in

california passed the senates committee 10-1 last week. clearing the last policy committee of the second house. this is good news. we are not home free yet. but the legislator will take this up with had they return next month. we are so grateful to the broad coalition of advocates and cities across the state and other who is raised voice in support of this bill. i realliment to thank our government affair's team as well as the mayor on several of you for advocating for this important legislation. we will tell you more about that part of the vision zero update in the agenda today. next up is autonomous vehicle there is is a lot going on here in san francisco. last week the puc the primary

regulator of autonomous vehicles that provide passengers service, they delayed the vote on whether to approve unlimited deployment of crews and waymo for passengers service 24 hours a day 7 days a week covering all of san francisco unlimited numbers. that vote is scheduled for thursday august 10. there was a major autonomous vehicle dmfrns san francisco convened by the research board last week that drew experts from all overnight world including all of theus regulators. i gave opening remarks that expressed a great deal appreciation and a deal hopefulness arnold promise of safety and pointed out the significant negative consequences they are having on our streets. around what industry calls

disengagement when the vehicles get confused and they brick on our streets causing unexpected consequence on the street. on friday, the d. motor vehicles held a work shop for ad a regulations around truck testing. we and the cta provided comments and again ask the dmv to make improvements for ad a passengers around the data that is necessary to demonstrate that av is our contributing to a safe system. on our streets. lastly, the cta is appropriate to start an automated shuttle on treasure island the loop. would freight 9 a.m. to sick p.m. on 20 minute frequency over 9 month pilot. starting next month. i believe.

i don't vice president that here. >> but stay tuned for more or go to ti-loop..com. >> and finally on june 21st we have hosted our first muni safe day out. the goal of muni safe to raise awareness safety and security on municipal and he new efforts that the agency is make to enhance security for custody sxhers staff. we had about 100 staff members, volunteer time to participate. they went out on the highest ridership routes and visited all of our equity spriert neighborhoods. post and wallet cards and talked to customers about how to report what aresment on municipal and he importance of passengers safety. we talked to businesses and a lot of mead why outlets andan degreea pull up the video.

this is the end of my report >> are there questions over comments on the director's report? >> director heminger. jeff, i had a question and it falled under the av category. in addition to do all they are

doing on our streets they ever garthing data about speed of the human. it struck meet findings they reached indicated first that a third of sanch san franciscans speed that is not surprising. what they found a mall percentage speeded significantly above the speed limit one-2% 5-10 miles an hour over the limit. that does not strike the right tone. do you have sense and have you review third degree data rato determine whether it is legit. >> i have not reviewed in part because they don't publicly share their source data.

we have no way of verifying. i don't disbelieve it. what you will hear in the av presentation later there is a small be of motorists causing the vast majorities of the safety problem in san francisco the reasons why we have made speed safety cameras the highest priority for so many years. it is also why we talk to organizations like nitsa learning from the europe ain't effort to use speed technology in new motor vehicles to prevent speeding something we can do if we were to use what is now 100 year old technology in order to solve our safety problems. good news what we heard about the almost completed state

legislation on speed. i wonder whether or not you can use whether it is the data or somebody els to figure out where this small number of people are coming from. they are driving around in patterns and is this a way to position the cameras to figure out how to catch the fish. >> we can use cell phone data for any point in time to identify the whole array of speeding tat pattern and make estimates about what are the travel will patterns getting people to speed where they are speeding. as far as speed safety cameras the legislation very narrowly defines where we are allowed to use the cameras. has to be on the high injury

network and needs to be a social equity plan that distributes them in a way one is no more or less likely to be caught in a camera regard will of race are gender or anything else. what if the information suggests that most speeders fall in that category we can't position them in sponse? there needs to be distribute in the a way where nay are not overly concentrated and okay and -- look. i don't count chickens before they are hatched we have time. and about strike me if we get happenstance, then -- that is where we are. this is a new tool and we need

new tools on the vision vero debate i will have more later. director cajina, please. >> thank you, madam chair. thank you for the report director tumlin and the update on the valencia bikeway project. that corridor has wonderful to seat ride everiship on that corridor there. and seems like it is safe for folks and seems like there is an energy that is contagious and beautiful to see there have been tweaks made on the project and imented give a shout out to jamie partials and darcy for the responsiveness when i think asking them like flagging things

coming my way. it has been an adjustment and we are making adjustments in role time i appreciate how hand's on the team has been. i had questions about the delores street hill bombing. and it is more of a clarifying question. teams like the current tactic now is to employ the stick -- intervention i on the other hand if there is if wo had any situation or conversation with folks to figure out if we can formalize that. a way to go through processes. that was successful.

something the community supportd and engaged family and youth in a positive way. i want to see if you could give us that perspective to understand that more. >> yes. good question. back in 2020 when we had also significant problems the first thing i did was it go talk to the folk from thes maggen zeb to get advice what would be a way. addressing this problem. including thinking through, could we move television to a location where there were fewer know opportunity for negative public impact on people who are not participating the event. that did not bear fruit for reasons. part of it having to do with -- culture not like to be told what to do.

it different today then and there in my history this . is manage i think that -- given the poor experience the event this year i'm hopeful that we can play a role in facilitating once again. irthink how i remember growing up and seeing the streets if you feel bikers coming down and blocking and i -- so admire that -- advocacy around bike culture. and i remember we had a representative from the skate board communities say, hey we want a way to ensure day culture

is part offer options. manage we are promoting and building for. i see this as an opportunity to do that. engage the skate culture and community and work with them. i do think that you know san francisco has a rich skate culture and create space for this transportation mode in the use of streets and cell brit them as well and the ins debt this is happened this past hill bombing do little to cell brit that do little to inspire trust with our youth community. when we create where we target youth and folks make its hard to engage them to greater policy conversations. so -- anything we can do to

break that cycle is 83. >> i agree. >> thank you. director yekutiel. thank you. one on the hill bomb i guess when are learnings in terms of preventative measures we installed the bombs that did not work is there like a way we are thinking about future efforts to may be allow them to skate but not skate at the same length it is in the as dangerous or creating enclosure. is it too early to think about a plan for next year >> director cajina hits the nail starting with engaging with community. a lesson for us is unlike our efforts we tried to do 2 and 3 years ago this time we were

reactive, to other agencies. and did not try to lead on thinking about location, management and spmth a strong contract upon around skate culture. keep patrol of your board at all times. choose the risk prosecute file with yourself don't put others at risk. those are foundational skate culture rules that we as the transportation department could help to 5 place. where events like this should be useful and celebration of civic culture in san francisco they happen and be filmed but not putting bystanders at risk. >> obviously -- people -- are

wound today is amazing garthing -- mess said up. in a deep way. and happen not participating. there is not like an organization that started planning the hill bomb and i subcommittee on engagement. it may be the case it is not like a group of folks we knowledged go to an open call to end one that participates. from the skaters i spoke to there is no organization. no group that put its on. and so while i think we might be

it is right to engage the mount not a typical engagement procedure. and mobility case we can't engage the municipality in any direct way other than getting the word out. i wants to be prepared for that. >> yes. the history of that is interesting parallel so completely descent rollized there was engage am min miegz some of the worse unintends negative once subsequences. the thing bring nothing other organizations like the youth commission. who -- have more skill in --

organizing a more fit event. an ini havation and space for reinvention and changing things. i think lessons learned. we don't want to repeat of this year next year. >> second question on av. my question you hit on if a bit in comments why did the cpu c was it the cpu c why did they move their vote. >> i can't speculate why they moved their vote. but you know i will bench that there has been a significant up tick in ins debt in san francisco. and greater awareness of the unintends negative consequence of, v testing. there has been a great deal public comment of more than there are on most topics. my main concern as i move around

san francisco is -- less the existence of autonomous vehicles but unrestricted amount. is there in the advocacy and the conversations you are having with sacramento, is there room for negotiation with the companies on creating like we did with the scooters and with the bike share program a kinds of upper limit of the amount autonomous vehicles on streets. comments about vehicles we are -- optimistic about av's we are enthusiastic and want them to succeed. we are asking for 2 simple things. if companies believe the devices are safe we want there to be data and data taking a safe

system's approach. then establish stage gates. so if you are av can meet performance metrics move from one stage to the next. that may be expansion of geography or time of day or. av's can't figure out how to understand human traffic control officers. may be av's should not be in the financial district in the pmp until they can pass. once they pass, great. if you are av's look nothing traffic then there should be a limit to them and not necessarily a limit in the middle of the night.

these other conversations we are trying to have both with the department of motor vehicle and it is california puc. and whether they meet thresholds. just as occurs for taxis or scooters or our muni trains. thank you. is am hearing attention the fact our agency the street division and transit division we want our responsibility to prevent fatalities and have safe streets it is very possible that replacing drunk drivers, tired drivers and anxiety row drivers unemotional drivers could had been us in our fight to make

streets safer am might affect the way we move around san francisco i'm glad we are thinking how to do this safely and work in i productive way >> yes. that's our goal and we see the promise they see in our enthusiastic about achieving that goal. we want to make sure well is public verification. of the claim and that we are thoughtful about location based on meeting thresholds rooted in data. i have questions on 645 and valencia. on sick 45 i admit disbelief when we move through the process. this is further than this legislation ever got before.

this is a reminder what is possible is not static. it changes over time and we can keep improve and keep finding solutions. thank you to jeff personally. worn yourself out. your staff and the audience work nothingure. and i will remind everyone deep the respect for sfmta is in sacramento i saw on my trip. bht member who is went to sacramento for the hearings the family who is lost machine and tell this story over and over again and how painful that is and how the folks are now in the city it is moving to see how many people near this fight for safer streets i hope we get to the finish line and please reach out to the board if we help you

making sure this progress gets across the finish lineful second is thank you for diligence on autonomous vehicles. on valence why i want to understands. it is heated so many cares. and making sure that we deliver what we did approve in the thoughtful way possible. i admit to be discourage when i took out my bike and the signage on that facility was confusing and on bike tour, let's get around my bike day the sign in valencia were confusing. don't bike here. and it was a diagnot signful go there. it was like mixed with the

traffic:to the share thought and how to do better and providing facilities. >> do you want to peek to this? i can -- give my impression. tom, street's director can give a professional response. i >> the 2 response first of all, definitely the i agree we could

have done a better job of signing the bikeway during the early days when not when the street is not configured with signals and with now legal to use the bike lane sending the message the bike lane was under construction. construction in the city with i bike lane we have clear rules what contractors do when well is a bike lane on streets paving or dick up. maintaining them and working around it or a temporary cone or another separated bike lane.

that -- we need to finds ways to keep facilities open for cyclists except for the intense period it is not safe to use it. and i think the lesson is we need to close that window and get to the point, sooner. it is a safe connection it feels like that has to be if that street is closed other space or have a detour sign. because unrealist tick is not caring about people detour signs

would have made sense. the design takes road space away and assign its to cyclists. not thinking a bike lane on a 2-3 lane street we had to paint the green carp and he made the street the cycling facility truly not safe for cyclists to use.

it was of safer to be in the bike lane than the cars where there is no space to be. i want us to pretends they other one who ride the kid on valencia and relies every day and we have to make solutions. this is just standards. yea. and it did cause the blue book and reminds ourselves we have a standard and protect bike lanes during construction and alie to bike prshths. the last thing there was talk around that row the yet of a pilots. funding a temp refer pilot. can you update this piece?

we have been working with stake holders interesting in part of the activation and partners from the rescue rigz and park and public ws to think about the what would the willing structure and the -- how would we spin a pilot up and protect the community groups. doing a lot of back grounds home work to build a foundation on which we have more public conversations this fall about that pilot. we will open up for public comment for anyone in the room on the director's report.

hi. i live in district 2 on franklin and grown the commentsos construction on valencia caught my attention the protocol is broken. and one example on franklin had the quick build in january and april devices were reproved for 2 months. they were left the street was unprotected for 2 months. construction happen during the day and all night and weekend. there was nothing. nought priority city the leaves car traffic open during construction. every other mode of

transportation, bikes, pedestrians is the bottom of the list reality given how much city is dedicated to faithful am the opposite. you should be a through pass for bicyclists on streets under construction and close to car traffic. thank you. anyone else in the room? >> thanks again. she and her. i believability a froms. hold promise for ecwrity, priority communities. than i provide the promise of digs crimination free transportation. they don't care i wear a skirt.

don't care anybody wears a skirt this . is a way we can serve all neighborhoods and places. be people who may not have access to personal automobiles. i understand why companies are correspond sharing data because i'm not going to give you my bank account number. i like y'all you are not getting that. i can see it. i would not want member to see -- i went here and here and here and may be put on the news. on i seat concern.

i can't cross the bay bridge. i have a driver's license. i'm different frui have one. if you want to see it i can he it to you. it let's me drive in all 50 of the united states and washington, d.c. i think av's need to go across the state freely. thank you. why other commentsers in the room? i'm jordan smith a store besomething that happened to me walking my dog. and golden gate park there is a trail on lincoln. on attach spits out on 25th avenue. not in a crosswalk. and there is no walk well or no

way to get over to the crosswalk. and so i was will going across the street with my dog and automated vehicle coming toward me and did not stopful it got within inches of me and scared me. you have more on the streets and more of the close calls or not close calls will happen. and -- i think that somebody need to bes addressed before willy-nilly going, okay opening statement flood gates. thank you. other speakers in the room with us. open remote. secretary silva. >> we will move to remote meant not to exceed 10 minutes.

[inaudible]. this say lengthy rim will be brief valencia street an idea for a study. close cars for 3 years and study. if there are issues, address those. delores street. you were requested to minimize the event. you took thission with a mandate to reach vision zero and have 166 days to get there. what have you done to make this help? kids caused 70 thousand dollars how much damage when human vehicles crash in your vehicles. the person killed participated in the events not a bystander.

speed cameras 3 people killed. in the past year by motor vehicles. norn would have been prevented by cameras. spring on the cam ares than i can't hurt but ignore the funds raiser in keeping us safe. if you thought interest you have for autonomous. >> snks snks.

hello directors and staff i'm parker day i want to comment on the valencia design. one thing that i don't understand is the bike box for turning out and into the bikeway. they are mall when 2 are riding bike andment to turn. the bike box are too small to sit both bikes. 2 bikes. if not 2 bikes fit i think that is a problem. that is not to mention when you are sitting in the small bike

box you are next to moving lane of traffic, car traffic. at 15th the bike box are so small the bike does not fit in the box. it is a green box with an arrow. i encourage not to bike up and down ra11sia. try to bike and exit it. it is a nightmare to visit businesses which is not a good thing and unfortunately i think this it is inhorn to the design of the bikeway. i appreciate it. >> thank you. we have no additional callers.

with the direction we are trying to go. >> great question. so this is the terminal loop east end of the 48 line. it is a 22nd street the bus is eastbound on 22nd the planners fund they do test in thes field is the bus pulls to the curve on 22 nldz cannot make the tight right turn to illinois which is narrow and the bus has to stop in the travel lane to be able to make the safe turn on illinois. the bus is travelling in the pattern since april of 23 a pilot. so this is about standardizing that that operation. there is a daylighting. the way we have been approaching the bikes on the city is move the flag stops to the far side of the intersection and daylight

20 foot red curb. the pedestrian safety benefits. there is no way for the bus to go on illinois. the dimensions of illinois we have the 20 foot daylighting zone on 22nd street. we are unable to get the bus to the curb it it is called a flag stop the bus can't get to the curb. machine in a wheel chair would not navigate. correct there are no parked car. >> thank you. it appears we are leasing the technology that is allowing you to use the red light cameras and it is 27 approaches the cost 1.5

cameras we purchased. >> okay. purchase the cameras instead of leasing. >> upon monica? who owns what sn >> our contractor owns the cameras and leases them to the sfmta. is that your question? always thinking about you know how are we getting to scale with our vision wherevero challenges and trying top understand you are asking to approve this worn contract extension for dollars for years. looking to scale ability is this how we look at scaling? red light cameras or say, no leasing them is not the solution we need to purchase the technology if we're serious about goals. >> are you asking about expanding the program to more locations. we are in the process now of upon xrabding to 8 new loeksz alcohol bring us to 27. once the 8 new locations are

thank you margo. i mention exclude we are inspireed continue her great work. i want to turn it over to are shipped workforce development to talk about the work out of that team in human resources division. i will do my best to keep up. i'm look at my power point am one thing i want to start with is managero reid had worked for the city for 30 years. she joined my team 3 years ago

prepublish demmic. a thing this we talked about when we think about youth and pipeline and path way what is authenticity look like. how do we display real municipality partnership. work we do around them not only from the office of racial equity competence w force development is how we bring humanity become to the work. i come from a nonprofit background for 20 years. so i see gentleman as a key ingreetien to changing society and we have to occupy partnership in a different way. we are not a service provide that are has bus we have to be able to say to youth and people that use our services. that we are viable employer to you as well. i think about those exit look at

the picture and say this is the story of the sfmta we need to always tell a universal nature of the classifications that work here regularly. career fairs and opportunity to driveway that narrative. and actually uplift the culture we want with change. so when i think about our diversity goal and the thing this is we need to do, i have about 15 of those goals myself. right. when i been when we need to do think about how we fill our rakanceys and think about diversity different low not just about race. it is gender. what is your zip code. all of those things and we invite people through internships and fellowships and things of the like. we think about our work we think about understanding that employment influences out come. health.

employment. housing. all of those things you congress of we have check marks of changing society. it is and our people. how are we going to do this internal low is community with staff different low. our staff many of them in from the neighborhoods we serve. so we don't dpo right by staff we will in the do right by communities we serve as well. right. social responsibility and that leads to social impact we are not talking about intention we are talking about our goal and the impact. we have to have a big are idea around how we gauge our communities and how we open up upon opportunity. we have a broader vision for those opportunity and our prospects must aline with the racial equity value many of us who work in the field we called it the work. and i never knew the term where

i was raised and grand mother talked this was the work. that is when we do. we have tong about this approach. develop and diverse pipe lines identifying barriers to. am we know that that can happen through the application process and can happen the way we design qualifications and the way that we the define what the other qualifications desired qualifications, right. the way we write those impactless the way that people see themselves in the process. mystery things we do to change that does how we focus on immroering applicants to apply to the minimum qualifications not the job title. when we go out and have a team member that is a reyewer. we near schools. >> doing the different things.

another barrier and a process not fruitful for them.

race work and where. are we using the interview process similar to like we say voting or on a you're. inviting all employees to participate. guess what you know just like the political system. lastly. the programs to give more training and exposure we are doing this in collaboration and up scaling and also employment diversity and internal racial equity benefits and how we are getting to employees. as an example. we will go to path way and pipeline programs. so we have i number of programs on our list of things we do and these are -- just sort of the first step in the idea how we invite people to. am. we have human services against.

they have 99 tens i name classifications they may mean something. clerk and we are accomplice ams for those people who go through the programs to give them opportunity to get experience workoth job at sfmta as well. and invite them in show when we do. booeden the 11os what sfmta represent and we have muni transit system program you miembassador program. which is a workforce development program. the 9910 public service trainee and go in the transit ambassador program there are opportunity forrent row pointses at our agency. and of course if we train people and give then opportunity they don't stop at muni transit ambassador. we have to go out of our way and make sure we make it our business to engage our member in

a different way. we have the 99 dpourt automechanic program. a large percentage of workforce are retirement age or could quit tomorrow. grow and build team internally. we did a preapresentisship program and had operators that applyd and completed. part of tht program goal is prepare people for aprenticeship. the people when may not be sure if it is for them whether successful. is for the grunldz for them to have belief in themselves it is not bus. we do our programs well. it is how much we give become to the employee not how much we get out of the this has to do the psychology the culture of the organization.

small pools and aparensises have come through. we had a class of 12. and push for preash parensis and next is aprenticeship. thank you. out of that we have ash parensisship program. mechanics, machinist. if you know about the field we struggle with finding machinists. in our agency. we need autobody painters. this year we had sfusd interns. ienis work and fellowship it is how we treat youth and how we

treat our team members is the first step. i look at off the opportunity as ways to build the culture we wanted. i heard team members talk about had they want. it begins with us in many ways. we have youth promise. such as youth to infrastructure and school presentations. if we don't do business

>> vehicle start point. i believe that we changed the way people say the way we do business and wlr we are true partners. as i say those different things i will close with the loss of margo with aprenticeship was a big loss from my vantage point i was on the phone with her i look what the charge is moving forward for us as an agency. before i was coming here today i came from doing work place training. when we do our work well we are visible and consistent and employees understands we mean limp we have to do this internal low and do that external low

through partnerships and how we engage or youth and talk about when we will do and how we live when we will do. i will close with that and say, thank you and as a final statement i'm letting you know as i told the civil service commission we will be putting forth a request to name the city's program after margo reid. thank you very much. and thank you for how thoughtful and thorough you are being in all this work. i'm happy to hear you talk about humanity become to the work and true. partners in the way mta shows up can help to build trust. the same way the board said is a goal. i have questions i will defer

and see if you have question says first. on the action plan update. >> director cajina. >> not so much question i will have questions. this is i dynamic duo headquarter for this presentation. not only was it thoughtful and in many ways i think it reflected, lot of the value this is we speak about a lot. it was wonderful to see that woven in your presentation. and as a nonprofit person. i rescue noise that feeling of the transition with nonprofit work and into government. how challenging can be to not only create environments from the recruitment upon standpoint. get in the room and submitting the application you have the application and in the room.

the intimidation that happens. and how that might either way at your -- perspective like i got a chance at this. and so trying to figure out how every step of the process you are trying to meet folks at and make sure it is a space that still does not fitture out the qualities that we mead to be serving our city and need in the roles. i think it is great you are creating that language. and processes this only further the recruitment and those interviewing and part of the panels. so that is wonderful and ensure as you train that is identified and broadcasted as this you are doing and your responsibility in this room.

woo have this meeting and hr and trying to discuss great we have the priorities and hitting the field and recruit folks and different. >> and so i want to give you an opportunity to talk about that piece of the work. we have had a lot of career faris that stuff and had is great. i want to give you an

opportunity to talk more about the tactical focused recruitment effort for those positions that have such major touch points with the community. i think the history of when we are done and grown rashipped can peek to a lot. one thing this margo and marci and i talked about neighborhood strategy and thinking about how do we prioritize the community and sustain connection. southeast is the bay rue and hunter's point and also viz valley trying to make sure we sustain a presence. coming out once for sunday

streets or one event may not do it we have to be pier evertiered [inaudible] [speaking fast]. every middle school and public schools hearing from us from our youth track. i would say for building trust a lot of it is being honest about why there is mistrust. being in tune with what is our role as a gentleman sxaejs authority where we counter that. where can we resources and benefit and trying to bring a series of decisions or resources and support to communities. for yous, that was like trying to apply a lens with existing planning w or infrastructure work whether how we engage folks who or what questions we have to decide. i think the challenge is there are many types of priority and lots of different some are long-term repair things that

have to happen. some mode shifts not consensus about when we are trying to element making points and conversation and bringing decisions to mass this is is not every decision. so it is trying to find a balance. with hiring giving people access and went workforce employees are parent and grand parents have friends.

one of the charges rito name 2 people now. brett, who joined the team a couple months ago. has been tasked recruit internal employees to participate in events. one thing that has been our struggle we send h r professionals to do this but don't look like people they are recruiting. this has to do with authenticity of participation and frequency. michael johnson i want to make sure i say that when we talk about respect you gotta name people. okay? i have been fortunate people like hanesly and bill mileos the -- town acquisition team

when it miss to providing that hr context and applicants require. one thing we tried to do is layer at recruitment or any community events we did the success enters. brett goes to veteran participation. anything that free i tell him i need you to go. why? if we are doing it in the city and serve as many as possible. we are not a transit provider we are employer and other things. how we do recruit and want how her team participate in that has to do with how we are using the business term brandsful a lot is about the way we reestablish our brand and reset people identity around our brand and what we do our thing. i say our thing i don't have [inaudible]. when i think about this i look

at it internal low which is one of my desires and goals is i would like just about every high school come middle school we can get to we bring a subject matter expert to not just lobby for youth to be operators. respect the prirts or car cleaners. our narrative who we invite in. and want where it says manage about the psychology it is we do. expanding perspectives on number of skills and classifications available as employment base. and an element that mark and prosecute motes when we do and how. there is a number of different things this get served huguout to recruitment and service the message on had you do with business.

thank you. for this. well is outside the box tactic says. so i don't know and manage like well is a partner help with the communication team or different folk in streets who engage folks often in community process and create the po hors within different neighborhoods let's get a pulse check.

i have stheen done in planning. i have seen -- folks in planning recruit from community vetting folks through those -- throughout processes because there are community process and it is an opportunity to see who is interested in the subject and trusted in the community already to represent that community intentionally. i had a question on the 30% completion rate for directors in training. i want to congratulate you for getting that across operationalizing that piece. it is challenging to do that. in government, period. to do that and start training

folks is amazing. so i want to give you a chance to peek more about that process. and what is the 30% electric like what is that number represent. >> i will be happy to take that. i will say that is training from the office of [inaudible] there is more training from rashid. there are other team usa workforce and the [inaudible] have trainings in the this people are only 430 trained the 30%,il say the gap we have -- many it um gap -- well it is not an easy way to see the supervisors we have classifications i'm a transit supervisor. in the title and consistent low there are other jobs where the same classification a manager or project lead or -- not have been direct reports.

that was one area -- like it is easier and management is easier well is not uniformity across 9 divisions or 8 or 109 or 10 how we use that is doing the research. there are new hires. supervisors other biggest group and get less training like the executive teams engaged more same with senior management team. and as far as what it looks like going forward we have to be mindsful with our system. we are trying to deliver many of the different service to the public including transits one way we train our big groups we have 2500 operators they have their standing trainings. and they already exist there is a model and we issue look to build on that. [speaking very fast] a burden on that team. we are working to provide trainings similar to hr and other divigszs starting to offer early morning sxhrp late night.

i don't know we need them for midnight may be 10 p.m. or 4 a.m. the big thing operationally is having a schedule with leadership, first. staff can engage staff are open it is a matter of the proper arrangements not made it puts a burden on others to deliver. >> 30% is how many people. i think 4, 30 with the modules there was another 175 [inaudible]:the number i will say -- um -- that is a best guess there is no data base unless i miss today -- we like -- 1 thousand supervisors. even our -- managers we guess but others who have you know positions not like a management classified role. around 500, i say -- for racial equity trin and more offereda

everas well. >> racial equity helpd that is employees we have not engaging after. am. you can look at racial equity rain nothing a number of ways one specific to language. how you move through life upon jend and i think so this that go with that and anning element who is getting training. so part of the training i want to make sure i holdup is this part of it through contract and also other ways that we pleasure various ways of accessing the conversation on racial equity the respect training touch on these topics. deal with frgsz can urined de~esque ligz and customer service those were large pop layings and person of color and public team members talking

about and engaging topics involve i large population of person of color people being served. how we discuss them has a racial equity component with service. some of the things may not show up on paper black and white. but i do believe that the way we are approaching has to do with equal approach how we talk about race and equity and he culture through how we deliver service or communities internally. i want to gnaw in front of you as well, because when she says how we train our team members perfect example is training happened between 8 o'clock and 5 p.m. at upon 1 south van ness i done 10 at night training and in the morning trainings.

last thing but -- a suggestion. as member who work in nonprofit and impact reports are key to tell the story of the work you do. and so that is a combination of qualitative pointses you med now about like -- having meetings at 10 p.m. [inaudible]. whether it looks like i encourage the next presentation we will have another one. that we have metrics and updates to see high level what the progress looks like. and. -- leave in the pieces that were

mentioned now. and i know i said this left time. my christmas gift to me will be we start having met rescue for the board to consider had equity looks like as we make decision in our process. ir so appreciate you operationalized that the training for the team. and that is for the board. putting planting a seed to how to been that. we all are beholdant to those values, too. vice chair cajina's point. i think our plan a mechanism we worked in the process to ensure well is a training initiative there. and we can circle back to the board work we have training for you part of that for sure start

internal and have various development to consider [inaudible] decisions and looking at pilot thanksgiving internal low to make sure it works. i think director cajina's point getting more updates. thank you. >> director yekutiel. thank you very much. are they in person or like online module? >> i can start with the belong most times online we shifted more in person. i joined bonjouring the height of the pandemic. we started virtual we continuing is more it was not a full day staff can payment of the nextit rigz for staffing we will have more in person. we started training probably march whatever day in shelter in

place we sat for 90 days and began this personal all trainings were packed in person. 8 person training rooms. staff and w force this reports in person. especially from a public facing team usa i want to do this virtwhere you will i'm afraid of getting sick you have to come to work so i do, too. >> the plan is for getting to 100% andet going the trainings 100% in person? or. >> learning management systems globalally there is trin nothing hr and offering other divisions as limp down the line we look at building a comprehensive approach. for [inaudible] online being be

self paced similar to with the cents roll hr in person and virtual. we give fleck at in how people can participate to reach everyone. i heard there are different 18 bias and racial equity trainings from h r. the office of racial equity and he inclusion. a different office as well. like how many different racial equity trainings are folks

participating in and do you believe it should be one office. one training everyone does or you think it is too disorganized. i'm getting subtext there should be one training. all the training is [inaudible]ing and specialized begin different needs of different team usa. as far as centralized trainings the goal was management system has to be resourced. and that's another story. we want to i think he can peek to the idea of central space the safety division does trin and transit and more informal training.

we communityd that out to have advancedical ders staff has more dates. if you will get your racial equity training to the office of racial belonging not an operate office. >> required train and might be more the team say they want leadership with equity they may have more. >> operate trainings the city requires. >> yes. >> that are city mandated not our own stuff? >> not the same subject matter we have basic what aresment franing in hire thering is fairness in hiring that talked about bias. we have our umbrake light come few under that. is it duplicative? lots of training, good. but in the perspective of efficiency. should we could we include our

racial equity training in the training they get for being an employee. >> i see the logic. i say that now we don't have when i was a racial equity lead in health department we worked on a one on one racial equity that he has not been created. a lot of titles on the expanded respect in the work accomplice policy. focus on work conduct and standards. for us, we ensure everything and [inaudible] [fast cannot understand] an issue our training for leadership has been pregnancy to listening sessions we need leaders to do or intervocabulary and customize the train for example our culture change needs.

smut sit and watch a vo from 1982 and you are to. yes, we have to do it and click a box and say you watched the 2 hour sunshine training video. if we are trying to make change in agency i hope it sounds like that is the not the box we are checking. i don't know how that is. thank you. the employee does not care where the training come from we make it where they don't feel is coming from a thousand place. i will say that when it come to a training perspect you have culture if you have a city of policy to do these things often

times no disrespect to the stele they don't speak our language. team members look us in the face and say thank you for sending no this training won't don't talk like that out here. combh i walk through the door and i talk like them or similar or whatever it is they feel they understand. you asked about how. hybrid or online. many don't learn well online. we have to be intentional that for staff number this is don't use it as a regular operation and key tools of skills are hand and mind and pace you will not throw them online and say it is stuck. you have to be intentional about receive who is asking you for what. whether speak the language and a level of cultural competency.

yea. i don't know how many other departments hired full time folk in their office of racial belonging we have. this is about interaction and connection and so -- to the extent we have the capacity you ramp up trin to prioritize in person they would be more efcashes than a radio. yea. in don't learn well on line and look nothing your eyes and hearing you peek and able to ask you request when is is rit and wrong what causes an issue. will have being more useful in the medium term.

i have 2 questions related to training. i think you can relate to this. you seat wheels turning. how are you measure and making surety trainings are excellent and what we make sure they are applied daily. upon one thing is fortunately, i'm unbridaled in response. when you go out when you are dole with racial equity through a mandatory racial equity or we would like you to. you are walking an error

uncomfortable johny becausure beens out people being forced buzz we heard members say i'm being forced. the elephant in the room and how you sit in the world you importance this room different low. right? the 5 piece i'm not going to venture too far you can do measurements on the surray post training. what we are probably going to most likely see is things like and i will bring up tony battle. whether or not complaints are up or down. what complaints are we seeing. what are the cultural things we are responsibling. a number of things that will show the result. meaning what is our employee engagement survey. the compliance. the types of complaints how are we having occurrence or issues

with supervisors we have to begin i will not go deeply in the employee base often times tell start wlo we see the results from our supervisors and managers. many ways one thing we teamed do was change the narrative on what expectations electric like. as an organization or any business we often times have communication with our team about when we need from them. our conversations is different at this point what you need from your supervisor and management group?

there are a number of things i believe will reveal where we are moving and then lastly. how often do we have employees coming in the body complaining in there are i number of ways you will see them. important low, i will say, kudos toiest buzz we gone out of our way to invite complaint exist in the organizations so we know what it is. part of creating the space. so it is about partial low the prop. whether we are competent about it. are we authentic again. and a lot of that will be a

result of whether or not to be honest they believe in the people that are leading that and do we walk the walk and talk the talk? i hope that other thansace. >> that is helpful. >> i will toss out my second question and address both. really happy to see the information on slide 8 about how we are thoughtful about who we are unintentionally alien 8ing. and how we make it more accessible. elaborate on this i want to learn more on that. >> labor of love and frustrations. we use the city >> well. there are a number of things we give feed become on what applicants are saying with experience throughout process of application. part of how to write an

application and when we talk about mq's you have for in sick00 applications. and someone reviewing them and there are questions 3 iaries this and and that sf all hose things you hope member findses that how do you bring this information forward to review that. the other per i think it is whether or not we are prosecute meeting the jobs available. my wife is living. 13 plus years what you finds is people didn't know theion was happening. so how are we prothough the and

where. per of that thought about and i did not have an answer good until now. which was real are using handle shake and link in the and a number of software tools. one thing we used to say in i used the term post and pray. and that's okay. but there is also an element who did we go attempt to get to in had it dmos as an example our college internship program. 2,000 or 3,000 mrakzp application and did it the first year po margo's credit our team has been asking when are we doing it.

ef invitations and touch 2-3,000 colleges and universities across the country. how we access in journal colleges and accessing organizations. how we accessing union bodies as a per in. to be frank there are unions reported the titail may exist in east bay if they do aprenticeship program i will post it on linked in why this category of people may be an employee of ours tomorrow when do we lose. thinking about a lot of the stuff differently. not selfish in the way we share information i think changes the way accessibility happen it is. thank you both. i hope to look in future reports

bringing our leads you can see the bulk of the work and happens in other divisions. thank you. >> thank you. i saw fiona's hand. quick question. my question is somewhat -- building off director yekutiel's point we all know there are mull pull racial equity trainings throughout the city. i have 10 a few myself. and think of more training for our staff is good. um00 eye was curious, are there sort of working for the sfmta specific -- classes of racial equity that you feel are included in the trainings. for example, like a group of

transit operators and specific to our trainings that are racial equity as an operator. example. so. >> great question i can start. so the answer is yes we have specialized trainings by areas the first thing we did this year the focus on commune engagement, out reach. hyper focussed on xhunz. plan and project delivery the last several months focus leadership. a supervisor manager, director track. most low sfmta staff, safe environments the hor answer over time weep want to have director yekutiel's point part of when we invest in the the work we had the people power to deliver more. the goal to didn't quality training take time and quality assurance and tart start to grow

and expand. learning about structuralism and racial equity racism and how they innersect withk sesz and age and gender identity they will be core as the foundation we understand how they prit and the custom wragz in how we apply that work. of the last thing going back to chair eakeno point structure the new raining applicable so they are all training for action and great to learn mule term and that's a part of the work and want to whether an activity or follow up make sure people are challengeed apply t. but that over time evaluate our people learning when they will learn. director hinze, yes we want more and start with foundation of racial equity competence go from there for our different system public service areas. >> i think that is great and i

also think that you know folks who will be more willing to take additional training, if we find them directly applicable to their upon jobs, i think more we can do on had the better. and then i'm also interested in following up on chair eaken's pointses to the extent we can about measurements and quantifying our the affects of this training to i'm assuming we do surveys and then you know in the job performance or -- manage, et cetera. i think this would be a good measure for the board to look at. and you see like what are the

affects and compossiblies of training, et cetera . >> thank you. director hinze. >> quickly i think this will close us out we are trying to have measurement adding we have racial equity training. this is only as good as people use and completing it. there is basic infrastructure. and he can peek to where we would like to dwroi as a system with the things you talk about good quality training,ellesting and delivering them to our workforce. >> i will lift up this several years ago we contractsed with mir an and diversity training university international. and so one things this we attempted do was codevelop the things we have in front of us to make surety language is proper. when you talk about it left-hand side and applicable to the work, you are having a conversation

about are we talking bh racial equity saying in the world there are elements we have to talk about how does that lub with the application of my j.w. or experience in the work i'm doing. that often times will not show up on the slide. what are the questions we ask in the room how we payment, how i do notice your body language is i need to engage you in the room. often times through the robust conversations we bring life to the room. that's the way i respond. next, again. and workforce development manager we are fortunate to have you lead thanksgiving work. thank you. clothes and member of the public i want to go to public comment and a break before item 12 vision wherevero. anyonementing to speak please

approach the podium. >> thanks again chair eaken, interesting presentation. i speak on these because i highlight that diversity should in the be predicateod strict definitions. you only see me here for a few minutes a month. most muni people don't know who i am. hucan this be religional? there is another transit ages i will not name. where people often don't don't know had to do when i appear on the scene. you should i pay my fare i ride. how can we not be scylloed in this? i am invoking dem crediteck

process speak about in item. i have been saudi arabia and iraq in a war zone gets me out. you are look at equity now i'm different. how can we have the most skirt commend low muni we can. so that people who are different can fully participate? can a person like moiz in my realm who is different be able to get a job at muni like anyone else? i hope so! mounty had be for everybody.

thank you. >> thank you. anyone else in the room. remote. we will move to remote comment not to exceed 10 minutes dial star 3. we have no speakers >> we will close item 11 and take a brief recess. it is 4. . 11 come become at 4:20. thank you. item 12 vision zero presentation >> >> i think think we are the a mobile home preparing for this new way of talking about vision

zero quarter low deep diveos policy not just individual fatality and deaths but a look at work. it caused us to realize we have things we need to share about if talitity in thes city. when we can do and when realizing and partners are all over are realizeings how daunth the goal is. it is hard for me to accept. i came to san francisco top help san francisco reach vision wherevero. hard to feel accept we not reach it boy 2024. i believe and my team believes and you wherevero is the right goal the only acceptable number of fatalities. the number of systems needed save lives i think that the biggest learning the last 8 years how for reaching the

systems and are how deep problems are. but it is our job to come up with solutions we will go deep on data. so. we will start ricardo the traffic engineer done a look at every collision and if talitity in the city since 20 sdpaen talk about the trends and will share when we are learning from peer cities in the u.s. and international. i think it mrins when is help and yet goal of wherevero is doyle get to. >> we will talk about what we accel rit our work as a board and staff to address the problems this we know we can address through design and traffic engineer and tools we have now. all acknowledge where we need to work with agencies and other social systems around the deeper issues this lead to if talityities. update on legislation, katie

will elaborate. and we will talk about where we are head exclude how we are framing the issue going forward. upon one head's up. we have 5. around 4. . 45 or 4:50 i have to allow her to ask a few questions. i will hand the mike to ricardo. >> good afternoon board members. ricardo with mornings ta city traffic engineer. i worked on traffic safety all my career at the mta. a worked as an intern i looked

at files the high being intersection report for 1995. so. this is something that has been a concern for a language time. a lot of things evolved. the report that i will talk about is the 2017-2022 crash report. and the reason this is interesting it deals with 3 years before the pan dem and he can after the pandemic. and will the data is revealing trendses that also are being mirrored nationally. i will go very fast because of the time constraints. you know innerattorney low we had a similar one that took an hour. i want to acknowledge i'm getting the surface but important to am skim the surface.

fatality crashes for the most part held stead in years. the main disappointment. we had improvements in the 90's. we have been bouncing 20 and 40 a year with 20 too you heard being one of the highest numbers since 202007. injury you see on this chart. which we don't talk about often are positive. during the pandemic a significant can drop in injury crashes and this is something this was a consequence of the pandemic itself. one hand fatality crashes have not improved your crashes people in less severe and considered your by the police department declined in the past 3 years.

pedestrian crashes, injury crashes declined. you see the trends going back to 2000. homeful low they will keep the injury totals low. this is another hopeful time of progress. electric at preand post pandemic changes by mode. we see fatalities increase said. injuries decreases. looking at pedestrian and injuries both are down fatalities not by a significant amount. bicycle injuries have declined. not facing one incidents.

this is comparing 3 years before. what we see as an increase in and motorcycle fatalities a tripling. and an increase in fatalities revolving scotter or boards. before the pandemic we had zero. during the years of 2020 to 22 we had 7. that probably most low because of adoption. but the same time won't don't want a new mode adopted with fatalities and injuries. that is a concern there. had we look at the did thea we see the question how can patalityities go up and injuries down. one expect both together. i said had is help nothing other cities i looked at the twitter system reporting crashes in other counties and locked at 2

years. 2018 and 19 and 2020 and 21. if you electric at every single county urban count in california and look at the national data. they all report more fatalities relative to the same injuries. . that ratio went upon across the board. when you look at data here for san francisco and santa laurela. we were the 2 counties that had the least increase in fatalities. santa clira had a decrease. but because a decrease in injuries the ratio went up. so had is manage this noted by academic professionals and people studying the issue. what is it this lead to this increase in severity of crashes the opposite of when we want with vision zero. looking at collision types the

one thing i want to emphasize from this chart that is making a difference what percentage are injury or fatal for various types of crashes. woo rear ends is that about half of the fatalities are period of time related this . is trough in san francisco for as language as i have been working here. sometimes more are pedestrians and not true of your data. that is a low are number. the other thing noted in san francisco data and the national literature a lot are what is solo crashes. crashes where one person or party crashes with an object. or falls. or crashes with a pole or wall. look be at data geography by

supervisor districts cross all the districts crashes gone down injury level. pedestrian decrease in d 3 and 6 the downtown pedestrian crashes down by 50% if you look at the 3 years of the pandemic compared to the prepandemic period. what's going on. this is a chart of the injury crashes by month starting asking myself are injury crashes related to the pandemic. of course i think they are. you had shelter in place drop in march and april of 2020. people were, farewayed to go out and told not to go out. people not coming in the city. tourism disappeared.

commuter traffic disappeard that lead to fewer injury crashes. went up in october and pandemic was receding and down again when covid in verse forms came back. well is a rep with the pandemic to 2022 and the amount of crashes. it shows reductions in major routes going in downtown and around downtown. and we all know that data out of the transit system shows less for part and muni not recovered starts from the june 23 economic analysis by the controller's office is showing a lot of few are trips made in the city. fewer trips boy i rate analysis

would mean fewer crashes. so. there are nower people and more fatalities look at the data again related 2 modes motorcycle and electric scooters and boards. other modes did not increase there is another percentage that was other factors. again this is an increase post pandemic now vision zero trying to get i decrease and going in the other direction. i want to make it clear when you look at the data it is not spread across all modes. unlike other city its is not pedestrians are not paying the brunts of this. it is motorcycle and scooters that are now making for that delta and plus side.

we issue a different city than most american cities but per of the united states and looking at the data we are not doing well in terms. traffic safety. >> um -- we when compared to other oecd countries we were the few to see an increase in 2020. and we are not keeping up with other countries in terms of long-term trensd per capita basis. i think you have been seeing in the press stories how pedestrian fatalities are sky rocketing the governoror highway safety

association came out with a study showing that fatalities up to 1980 levels. and on a per capita basis we are near record highs again. not catching up with other countries, everything in the wrong direction. lot of soul searching and studies why this is help nothing the u.s. had other countries have shown how to make progress on this issue. upon bide own administration adopted the safer systems approach similar to vision zero policy and a comprehensive prop toward traffic safety and this is a chart that they put out that is useful and has the policies around the circle. and has the 5 major focus areas which have been mirror in the past strategies for san

francisco. safe vehicles and speeds and roads. post crash and safe road users. i will talk about these and previously touch on points of interest. the first is safe speeds. is there is a consensus that in order to deal with the issue you need to deal with speeds. they are what cause your and the faster the vehicles got less time they have to react to the efforts that are happen nothing urban areas. so -- safe speeds are critical aspect of vision zero during the pandemic most show that speeds on roadways went up these are tech logically prudent person through cell phone and studies and censors on highway and look at local data and confirming again the gentleman confirming

the people are crashing due to speed related crashes. the local level had the police department uses is unsafe speed for conscience. not all the crashes mean people are speeding at 40 miles per hour or over the sfliment the speed that the police officer determines to be unsafe they increased from 12 to 23% of fatales in post pandemic period. a significant can portion of crashes put in the box and prepandemic within up from 16 to 20%. nontryst yell increases classified unsafe for conscience. safe roadsil not talk about itteen though this is the meat whf we do. you are most familiar with this and we will follow me a presentation on the things we are doing for safe roads. i will say we are not alone the

vision wherevero industries are struggling to implement safe road and seeing results. so you look at vision zero cities they are having record number high fatality this is lead to speculation what is going on. one thing we admit the american built environment involves roadway systems that are high speed. are -- the main cause of the fatalities the 60% of fatalities help in the large streets that cities depend to move cities and suburb areas. there are in had don't like d.

transportation focus on uses of the riand foal we had look at the system and meching streets safer and not blaming humans for crashes. but the safe system's prop humans make mistakes our system has to acthink the makes the way europe eens acknowledge humans make makes and the governments can reduce likelihood people will make makes. lack of skills, training. licensing. these are things gentlemans can do torous human area. over confidence in skills and risks. this educational. wear a seat get helmet. impairments alcoholing.

prescription drugs. these are all things that prohibit to the problem. aaa locked at crash data and mated based on prior trends to the pandemic there were things happening over represented in the pandemic data they look the at the report on line and concluded the most over represented types of crashes prepandemic people not license said. expired or never licensed and very young. this is contribute to less safe roads other things more drunk

driving. less seat belt usage. faster peds. so -- education is often criticize in the the u.s. being why are you spending money on that psa? this is in the effective. studies shown this public service announcements don't change people's mines when we talk about education in the european context they are talking about k-12. classroom. social sxejz upbringing to make people aware of risks and to the things you do to minimize the risks. there is have you to having government psa's during the pandemic we learned about mask and other ands on social distancing and things the government told us to improve safety. can we have a similar type of push to have people understand the drunk driving is bad and wearing seat belts is good? the pandemic absorbed anxiety

and attention and the messages fell. may be we need to bring them back. the government is trying to do that containing. so. the question there is when if the rep with policing and safety? less policing is this leading to more fatalities? now. there is a point of vow that is valid we had not throw the police to every design problem in the u.s. you need to redesign roadways and having a ticket is in the a solution. and not all the things we do are

self enforcing and not all the things we do implemented have safer roadways. in rowels for enforcement is always discussed this . is a chart from the report showing in red. 2016100% theier zer open. before the pandemic you see each year well is less enforcement. start at 100% and end up 5%. this is focus on the 5. in vision zero agreed we would focus on. if you electric at your and if talityities they are not going in the other direction. as you have less is in the the case you have more crashes you have more crashes in 2022 but there is not necessary low a

correlation that say that just because ru5% of enforce am double the amount of crashes. had silent rep. how do we use limited police resources those are questions we are struggling watch at a national level trans union had i study. it is imploying there motorbike a relationship with enforce am levels at a national level exclusively fatalities. they say the national citation decrease then %. so this report is available on line perform again. question is it is causation and correlation the same have you fewer crashes not lack of enforcement is this one factor and if so what is the best way to bring it back. >> reckless behavior. theory saying during the pandemic we were isolate exclude less social regard to fellow

humans. we became willing to will yell at the airline staff on plevins. there is evidence the crashes we are having leading to more antisocial acts. hit and run crashes initial low in san francisco hit and runs gone up. hit and run crashes up significant low from 13% to 23% of fatal and 17 of injuries to 22% of injuries. those are high percentages a police officer shows up and the other party left the scene. violation of state luthe other person felt it was better to least scene than to stick around. sdraksz and attentions. what does this have to do with anything we deal with this is a factor about 3 then and there lives claims how distracted are people in san francisco. we don't know when new york looks at data distraction is

number one not unsafe speed this is goes back how is data collected. their officers have a system that teaches the go in the distraction and attention column more than our officers. distraction and attention again combination we are aware. people on phones, multitasking thinking they do multiple tasks and make a make always have distractions. homelessness. we talked about this at vision zero presentation with public health reminding us a large percentage of pedestrians vulnerable don't have an address at time of death. 30 to 50% of pedestrian fatalities during the pandemic had no address. we don't know how many injuries of homeless there is in the a becomes that people mark on the police form to say the person is

without a home. you would have to look at the form if it has no person. a data reporting issue a problem we know about. vehicle sites and wait this is changing now safe vehicles. a lot of it may be enactualtive. vehicles are getting larger. front is getting heavier. battery are are 'veing weight and this creates vulnerability for users such as pedestrians these are charts this show how suv sales are going up. they are getting larger yearly and the 41 end is getting birth the gentleman stared be concerned and men looking at vehicle ratings that take, counts not the safety of the occupants but of people around the vehicle blind pots and theft

and lotings of other vehicle factors by the federal gentleman. pedestrian braking system. and will be commenting on this. vehicle safety for pedestrians. truck underside. safety. alcohol defection devices speed assistance systems lots of things from the technology and vehicle side to prevent from making mistakes or correcting for makes than i make. and post crash care. we often don't talk about thissismented tok knowledge this is one of the box in the safe system's approach the last thing gentlemans do when everything fail exclude there is a crash is it get that person to a trauma center. san francisco is fortunate our quality trauma center is in the city. we save a lot of lives from traffic collisions because of this imagine if you are in i

rural area and helicoptered to a trauma center. this is i factor. the matrix in the 70's looks at the factors and the swiss cheese model this said, safety requires various interventions. roadway design. education. but when all fails have you to have that medical it was system visible. had you take into consideration this is a chart that came out of vision zero. which you used to work in san francisco. she had this chart estimating when each one of the different interventions could do to deal with the initial crash problem and i pointed out not the reality but framing things everything has a role and intervention this is help each other speeding. is worse when you are drunk.

and it is worse in a large vehicle. they are add taoism not just individual. there are the loss of factors interacting on crashes and my staff looks at that that happen in san francisco to piece out what is happening on the crashes. i will turn it over to. >> let's pause there the timing is perfect for vice chair cajina to ask questions before she leaves at 5. >> thank you very much. this it is an amazing presentation and i will say that it credits baseline knowledge of this is the state of the situation. this is how it is in the united states and in context how it is like in san francisco the issues we are seeing. i appreciate the thoroughness of going through the historical language of how we talked about this and how the u.s. government is talking about this . from

the local and national scale. i think this is phenomenonal to understand that context for us and members of the public. thank you for put thanksgiving back together and the research. i want to fast forward i bit to slide 50 i know we have not got this there with the public. looking along to make sure i tackle questions. i appreciate this slide. i want to this is a spoiler alert anybody. why don't say that. >> it is great. had is interesting about that first part there. when we talk about -- our goals provision zero and how perhaps not this they were point of view in the sky in some ways this is when we hope we can achieve in

10 years. and -- focussing on the high injury network. and so when i like to know from you. where am are we if you say 20% there or five % there in terms of high injury network. how where are we in the what's the data set to tell us where -- how we are doing on that. if it would take decades.

i will follow up. program manager. in terms of high injury network we have 50 miles remaining. it is i think within 80 miles. needs safety treatment and a mr. president we will talk about. spot treatments and be able to touch the entire high injury network. >> in queue. and the network tool kit we

talked about earlier in previous presentations intent to make sure where are the gap and how we reach it before 2024. >> not a lot of time. 2024 wins. i hope. thank you. i guess that seems achievable. the other piece i touch upon was pedestrian signals and understanding you know that's all trying to ensure the folks a cultural change pedestrians have the intersection before vehicles, right? if we look at that tool.

how many have pedestrian significant untils now. and where are we on that. i don't have the number i will comment the prop we take is to add it to any location. every time we do a system improve am we vetted lti. to add lpi's to add more time we justify it is the opposite. do it unless there is a reason not to. that is for tupps highway light the amount of work we have already done to help ensure our

intersections are signals are actually propedestrian. and that's manage had is worth highlighting in the next presentation great to mention it and give us a hard number. i don't want to speck lit how many we have. x amount signals 50 or 80% have lpi a. >> yes we can and more details. and the left piece i think is so key i know my clothes will have amazing questions after i leave. the education piece was fund ammal as you were talking about the european approach versus u.s. i have 2 more questions. with the european approach. and having those early upper interventions with you around social iegz the idea of drive safely. do this what a responsible

driver is and had be aware as a pedestrian. you have been let's all be aware of our surroundings and be -- aware of everyonel. if we have a strategy for this? i know we have safe routes to 62ing. can do just this. have we theireyoly focussed on this is when we need. yes. i was going to kickoff with that that does load shifts and safety education.

school bus and trying to -- education that -- dm very close level we can roach youth getting licenses. we are working with the dmv. we have been able to put speed psa's the dmv offices and out reach in front of the office here in san francisco. we hope to then and there we had conversations that start and stopped about can we add or update the drivers's license test in look at slide 22. over the school forecast 77% drivers under 16 we need to

start education sooner at middle school level if we are teaming up with the school district to introduce curriculum try to see if there is something there. the dmv would -- consider not the easiest department to work with. i imagine that with our schoolics districts we make more of a like -- great strides with them. so would encourage folks to look in that relationship. and the last thing that surprised me the motorcycle data and so -- it is wonder figure you can speak about that. not wearing helmets that is about that modes we are seeingo many fatalities there. >> ping can the factors for a

motorcycle fatalities. we had people returning to motorcycle riding after a language time away a new form of getting around. part of the goals focus on new riders. or like returning ride torse get a refresh or basic -- these are urban safety skills to work with the motorcycle officers on. i was -- wanted to explore when

are they doing around motorcycle sxejz if it is ps aware your helmet and drive slower. whatever it is. or the designs of the cities not concise you have to high speeds the next presentation figure out policies this we may have to make around that. that is i think that is if we are seeing an up tick there we need to figure out solution there is as well. the number of injuries for high schools within down. >> the total number of crashes down am the theatrey newer drivers for people pick up motorcycling is different it would reflect in more people

getting injured. there are fewer getting youred but more i doing when than i use the motorcycle this is trough nationally. in terms of helmet usage that is a tactor there is a small subset more for freedom and joy and the thrill of riding a motorcycle fast on roadways that is leading people to do things that have bad results. the education and intervention have to be relevant the problem the problem we see few are motorcycle riders are dying but not the over all population of riders that are ending up in the

hospital there are few are crashes for motorcycle rider. >> thank you. >> this is difficult to explore with transportation. seems we know are connected to the data in san francisco. are the destruction of the social contract by the forces that elected and sustained trump a factor that is not unique in american society but xroem in the u.s. where we see better safety data at other factor we are seeing arise in all different way in san francisco the trauma we are experiencing as a fall out of covid.

we are aware of behavior on street in many ways. a mall percentage of motorists and motorcyclists and people using -- micromobility. going ridiculous speeds and seeing that turn up in theup tick in hit and run violence on streets. work every dito restore the trust in each other. >> i just thought that came up. is like00 eye think as we explore the data we have to

start identifying who are partners in the work that are not just enforcement. i think that is an element. we identified that per inship a time ago. we need additional partnerships. whether a sub. and so as much as collecting the data and diving and trying to see the cause is and i think it is important for us to consider partners outside the box. i know and see whop we have to bring to the table to have a true discussion on [inaudible]. we can't do it alone. and it seems like we need engage more partners in the mix. >> thank you. director heminger. >> madam chair they have more of i presentation. >> that's right. you will wait. perfect. i thought you wanted jump in.

let's finish. thank you. i will speed through my portion of the presentation. of and and sum raise the key pointses from ricardo's presentation during the pandemic more crashes result in the deaths. rates of period of time and motorcycle deaths going up in addition wide. we know that vehicles are getting learning and sf people on scoot and riding motorcycles remember significant part of our pandemic fatality and people in carers going at speeds and other reckless behavior contribute to severe crashes and people homeless make up a large part of fatalities.

>> condensing up the that information and trends to 4 key areas to address. we know had the first throw of trying to slow cars down and protecting pedestrians. and crediting more active mobile network are things that sfmta can do. through street design and previous traffic management. the folk susa problem stated a category related human behavior and under lying social and believe healing, that can't be solved through street designful sfmta can mitigate like director cajina mentioned with other government agencies and organizations. >> the strategies where -- using to slow should be familiar to the board.

trafficcum and commitments to install annually. ped management work and the slim setting w on districts. we have our post crash and significant until retimeingly work i amed highlight our the speed safety legislation we are excite body and discussed previously. but can't over state it how excited we are to get this far and i'm going to invite katie our state and federal government affairs manager to share a bit more about some of the other visions related to the bills we are tracking. good afternoon. as just and a number of folks have mentioned -- ab645 passed

last week. if passed 4 policy committee the appropriation and the aaccept plea floor further a bill like this ever advanced we are thrilled and thankful for san francisco and all the w they have done to advocate including walk sf. families for safe streets the san francisco bike coalition and nct trans form. safety add roindicates working l.a. and so cal. they are doing a great job. our city per ins and the long, long list of supporters named in the bill ajs temperature has taken this the work of the broad coalition state ouied that we have not seen before to get us where we are and chair eaken mentioned we capitolized on the shifting conditions.

conditions have shifts and circumstances changed and we have been able to figure out where we can inch our way in and we did. so you know the bill authorizes a 5 year pilot to test cameras. worked over 6 years to amend the bill to include robust privacy and commune engage am prosecute visions especially pertaining to citation type and find and where the cameras will be locate exclude how the ref now will be used when we go to sacramento and talk to policy makers we hear thank you for coming with a fully baked bill. ful i have seen a lot of non[inaudible] bills before introduced. but it is noise to get that feedback and it has been the work over the 6 years setting the grounds work and learn and

hearing from the different groupos how to make the bill better and including the comment when is than i decide to not support the bill. the bill the move next to the senate appropriation after august recess and passed for considering. during the recess we meet with the committee numbers you know ascertain wiener sits on that committee and senate leadership and also several media pieces covering the importance of the bill. in addition to that combil i'm happy to get as deep in the weeds you would like to on that fwil it is a fully baked bill it is 21 page and i'm help to answer questions now or another time. and then just mystery other bills that are related to vision

zero that i don't think got a lot of attention but deserve it are -- ab251 by member ward from san diego implements a recommendation from the 20 too annual report to the legislatedor and this is something this this board knows research shlomos drawn a connection with trends and the average size of vehicles and increases in pedestrian fatalities manage ricardo was talking about. larger vehicles correlate with increase in collisions. the ctc mitt a report on the study's findings to theed legislator by 2026. this bill made its way to the second house and on the suspense file because of the impact the state convenes a task force and that costs money and develop a report that bill receive a report a vote in after the

august recess and the final bill i wanted bring to your satisfaction a b 361 by member ward. and this bill authorizes i local agency like the mta to pilot an automated forward facing parking cameras on parking control vehicles. our gophers on -- that would they would thursdayed take still photos vehicles p in the bicycle listen and sends those in the mail this bill gone under the radar well is in opposition. san francisco took a support position the 2 cities i have taken the support position and will are heard by the september when the legislator convenes. another tool in the tool box to

potentially -- discourage double park and bike lanes. so happy to answer questions. or -- go on with the presentation. >> we will get through the presentation and come to questions. thank you very much. >> thanks, katie. moving on to protect road users pedestrians. we talked about our [inaudible] and the quick build tool kit coming online and our school safety programs and what the work we do to reduce left and right turn conflicts. the highlight here is the quick build tool kit working with consultants the last sick months to evaluate the remaining high injury network and identify spot treatments that are proven quick build treatments to install on the remaining 50 mys of the

network. and here on the slide i pictured when the tool kit will look like. cross the board able to install kruck upgrades. head starts. daylighting and the long are walk times. and then for locations with behaviors we want to target will install safety zones and turn waum calming and no turn on right signs. to complete the work the recommendations will be spread across to deliver treatment and de feoed to existing funding sources we have been, ward like safety for all grant or -- through our implementation promise day lighting. significant until programs and the transit quick build program. all this w for the tool kit 5 to 6 million dollars we will submit a funding allocation to the ta

this fall n. meantime staff are working to assign staff and working with existing quick build funds to get the work off the ground. in terms of strategies to address shared safer streets 2 wheeled are expanding our protective bike network. and street scape projects. we have access community plan and the slow street's network work to make per minute mantle and 19 new streets you have approved. and to highlight our active duty plans a community centered plan that is in deep in out roach mode. and will help make recommendations to expand and build out near comprehensive transportation network. heff low prioritizing engagement. 6 months into.

out roach and hope to cocreate long-term vision for safer riding and rolling on streets. and the commune discussion will influence recommendations for the investment and learning are progress of it will come to the board next month on august first from the acp team and in october for initial board direction. and final low, the left key area the noninfrastructure component beyond street design and traffic management there are large are on public health and behavioral issue contribute to traffic deaths.

with that i will hand it over to tom with the left set of slides. i will be quick i know we are gettinglet and have lots of questions and comments. i thought it would be useful to wrap up with a bit of how much we learned since 2014 the second city to adopt vision zero after mccormick and followed by other cities many are going throughout conversation we are having now. we were in den verat a mote nothing network vision zero cities talking about how difficult and how it is person for uss leaders to partner with policy makers. to be mindful of the data

ricardo walked usllow and reality that is happening in streets. 2047. we launchd and had the idea we would do the van ness brt reconstructions of the network over 100 miles that is a project would have taken decades. we thought come ares were around the corner. we get a bill through and talked about 3e's. like the key 4 issue and scylloed our work. and police enforcement i cornerstone of efforts and roach zero in 2024. we learned, lot since then and i think i will say when we know b now about the issues we know that scale of project delivery would take decades. this approach would take detectives we know how hard it

would have been get through camera says through sacramento.

we are planning for cameras. i'm nervous say together out loud. we are doing the work to appropriate to have speed cameras in san francisco. we have the active communities plan we are work to design a long-term community network and finds early win its get 5 or sick streets that show san franciscans what that would look like. and reaffirming our commitment. there is so much we learned owner time and there is a very strong commitment this we are focused on wherevero and keep working until we get there and we are happy to be in partnership and happy to take

your questions about our prop >> last slide? that is our last slide. >> great. >> thank you. director heminger. i think it was worth the wait. ricardo can you come become up. you are like the man behind the screen in the wizard of o wrshgs but we want to listen. and i wanted focus on a couple of slides that you presented and it would beys if you could bring them up the first is slide 4. >> yea. i wanted thank you for the stroll down memory lane. john was the executive director of park and traffic commission

when i was a member of the commission. so for those of when you don't know this is my seck hitch. i don't know why i kim become for more. i wanted ask you about the either end of this chart. first of all, it locked like we were successful in the 90's and early 2 where are 00's why? first, thank you for the wizard of oz reference i just watched that with my daughter i know he was not when he thought he was. the thing about the is that -- we can always take credit but perhaps may be other factors at issue. i say start nothing then 90 we had the creation of p and traffic and the sale it is tax through the voters prosecute voided an instead ofy funding

source to do a lot of low hanging fruit improvements. when i started south of market was litered with high crash locations where every year dozens of people were being youred and killed in south of market intersections because i consider poor street design i will not say that now the city attorney's office would be. i think that -- the there is one. i will admit that poor street design a long time ago now they are not poorly designed. the progress i think we made was due to having the ability to make new investments on street this is need today then. and doing traffic calming. red light camera program in the 9's after i crash of 19th and

hallowway. proactive school area safety. a lot of bicycle planning started at this time. and prior, there was one person working on bicycle infrastructure that was it. a ton of work start in the the 9's that stalled out when we did the thing this is needed to issue done and became more of a linear band. there might have been other factors nationwide. >> recession. vehicle design and demographics. the bottom line in recent years we have been stuck in this >> you think we are working our way up and that -- mou it is hard to pick the fruit. and --mented ask about the other

end of the chart. last year we had 40 traffic fatalities. yes. 39. and this year we have how many so for? we have about 15. so if you were to double this about 30 for this year. >> a slight decline. i'm hoping tell be. >> within your band. stalled out. we predict we will be over 20 theory this year >> the next is slide 14 and like my colleague director cagin a wanted get become to the motorcycles and the scooters. and i -- voted against rolls out the scooters. and this is why. i don't think we have a safe place to put them.

and a lot of them had don't want to roadway in the street because is unsafe there. are riding on the sidewalks. iish there was an answer about a safe accomplice to put the guys i don't think we got one. i think a legitimate response to the data is this we should get them all off the streets entirely until we have a safe accomplice to put them. i know we are building out a bike network and eventually serve scooters and other types of devices as well. that will take awhile. and in the meantime we have gone from zero to 7 in a couple years. tom, when do you think? i think person difference is of the search, only one of them was

i person participate negligent shared skeert program shared are revving litted. pentses with companies and riders roadway on walks and pressuring on the walk. there are many patriot low owned >> do we know where they occurred like were than i in a bike lane in the regular lanes? on the walk? all types of upon stands up device one from your device on polk and octavia republican a red lit and hit another republican a stop sign they tends to be different type of crashes vehicles crashing to the device. is typically that is happening. or the device crash nothing a vehicle.

that makes sense, too. were you interrupted. in my vow we oughta return to. i don't know whether today is the purposes of putting together an if new report or policy statement from this board. i hope the latter is something we consider. we got unfinished business. you said i think zero is the right number. we don't have the right date. next slide number 25.

... >> enforcement? >> yea. this is welcome to our lives here temperature seems to me that the mta is the only city agency this cares about this subject. the cops have just mia. and i'm i think at the point of throwing in the towel. and an idea machine suggested if the pd does not want to dot work what about the history? have we considered turning to somebody else had has county wide law enforcement jurisdiction? >> we thought about that. we never got tonight point where we were ready to watch a program it got how the monflowed. 2047 had the budget was strategy and the police fell than i had

enough staff hour to commit the focus on the 5 they used their own resources to enforce traffic now the police department or the sheriff's department they are asking for money to fund. why and look i would expect that and i think we oughta consider it. and i guess it is sort of per of a larger strategic question for you and that is -- let's say we get the bill through sacramento. will we rely on this pilot to enforce the traffic lus? we are not enforcing them now. or are we going to supplement when we can do with the pilot with some kinds of old fashioned physical enforcement. it is manage we should give more thought to which the pilot will launch the authorization affect in 2024 there are other steps in the legislation. i don't think we will have

camera us up until 2024 to 25. we need to think as a long-term play but fest. this suggests we need something going on the old enforcement beat if this is something the sheriff's department and cost us money we can look at trade offs of the other things we spend money on in the ages, and i think that is a policy question we oughta consider from both ends. the next one is number 29. on homelessness which i guess i had not locked at it this way if this is what is going on it is an instance we don't have impaired drivers we have impaired pedestrians? is that that is going on with these numbers. >> we have a tracker that sum

riszs the crashes at a detailed level i don't want to comment about that is driving few number of crashes. i think there is in of the crashes that are related to the pedestrian i have ritting i traffic signal or in the roadway and the behaviors. we have all seen people like that in the street and unsafe and you know you try to walk them become and get them out of the intersection. one thing we have been discussing is this a lot of the issues the city is dealing with social issue bleeding in the transportation system. such as mental health treatment issues, drug addiction. drug sales, crime. all the things are malt reflect in the crash statistics this happened left year related people flowing the police, conducting crime. and there were ins stances people joyriding the motorcycles

and losing krell and crashing. so there are certain things this are happening i think if the city continues to do what it is trying to address the social issues we will have vision zero benefits. they may not be vision wherevero projects but there is an innerupon play there the police department being on the streets and fizzable and noticing behavior by itself and have beneficial affects. prosecute voiding searchses to the home exactlies dole with maling issues that is not hat mta deals with but affects we are seeing from the data. >> if we need reason 575 why we oughta address homelessness, here it it is. >> and we had remind all the pandemic destroyed the shelter system told you are better in the streets than i did not feel safe in the shelters.

this affect of pandemic is affect in the portland in up with similar conclusions the number of homeless than i dealt watch i have not seen literature about other cities a lot of freeway crashes people living near off respects are unhouse said. those crashes are unfortunate. keep are trying to look at the data. >> you are trying to understand the problem. and the fact -- the last slide is 50 am tom this is your what i know now slide. this statute things you know now this we have a large percentage of fatalities people out in the street and coping with other problem and demons and it is showing up on our system like it

shows up in the bus. >> i want to echo something abouteen those crashes we can't solve the entire problem but minimize the harm. people hor experiencing homelessness and south of market and the tenderloin and live and sloping on the walk if we pull the traffic there are things we can do does not solve the under lying problem but minimize the harm that is i framework we need to get deeper on that. >> ficould, du put the slide up. men it was there and left again. why 50. is up. there it is. i appreciate the way you are liing out the issue. had concerns me with this format. is this you know -- what we thought we knew we didn't. know. and now we got to dial it back.

right? we were young and naive and idealistic. i think the people until this agency who are doing this work have a tough job. and than i are coming to work to save people's lives every day. and it does not seem to be moving the needle as much as we would like. we want to move needle to zero. which is a hard place to get to. and -- it just instructor:s mow there is just i'm getting i sense of defeatism. you know. and -- it reminds me of the gun debate where massacre, occurs. thoughts and prayers. you know the price of freedom and off we go. and -- i do feel for your staff and your mission here but we

gotta find a way and you know we are all grasping at the fwhil sacramento. we got on give ourselves hope, number one. and number two, that if we got stuff this is in the working which is your middle column acknowledge it and move on. i think we need new strategies weather in the physical enforce am game or homeless services or whatever it might be. and again, my hope is this we can put together a new policy statement. that would replace the one that we created with the vision zero challenge. -- and that -- that statement in my view should include the

outcome we want to achieve. butt specific mile stone out puts that we need to get there. i think we need to be on an annual regimen if you do it quarter low that is fine. we need a regular procedure that makes sure we stay on track. we will try things this won't work and should be quick about it to quote a phrase. and we will find things that do work and we should put it on.

we need a way to make more progress. and it is in the for lack of effort. in some case its is. not in this ages with per ins let us down. so. i appreciate the time. madam chair you are begin mow today and i pledge. secretary silva note there is a follow up with the and terrible policies statement or piece of legislation. not sure what you are imagine magging i want to come back after comments. direct yekutiel. >> i will i have a company questions. the first is if you go become to

the slide that talk the greatest positive change in the insubstances since the pandemic the top focus out license or expired license. i don't know all the numbers. it seems instructor:ing that a high change with folks license expired to me that is i glaring indication that the police are not dog their job pulling people over and seeing if than i have license. that is not something the sfmta has for you vow or smurnd 16. we can do all the curb cut outs and daylighting we want. spends the entire will not

address the top 4 reasons why people are again this was an analysis which recall over represented prior not telling you. >> not telling you which is the most significant and highlighting different factors that -- we were at play. as far as licensing was concerned the department of motor vehicles spendsed required people to go to the office and they did not want to do that possible people were unlicensed because they could not agree with license the dmv other than being present. so there were issues with licensing during the pandemic. but -- getting to a fatal crash is something explored.

with this data there is correlation. not guilty manage we tax look at the electronicer not in an fran a significant can factor being a large number of unlicensed drivers last year there was a case being part of the fatal. it is not a predominant case complicated the issue of enforce am over licensing. how is this being done. people killing people over represented in not having license. there has been concerns the way

the laws are enforcing i manner that certain people are more likely to be asked for the licensing than other this is is i concern with police enforce am over licensing and license plate i have lagsz. sounds like we have the opposite issue. we have like nonexistent police enforcement. from what we have been. in san francisco that will be the case. it is curtailed. how much are we spending on the street treatments for vision zero related things. ballpark. we have a street capitol improve am program. 200 million dollars over 5 years. i think talking about high impact short term investments high your network tool kit.

you know. something like 50 to 60 million dollars. the short term high impact stuff. do we know how many traffic cops. there is soyation data provides online. so you can look at the number of citations in and out they do other things give people warnings. citations are fluctuating on the level of a couple a day. >> at that level. so dependsos who is doing enforcement and who is available to focus on traffic. >> what i'm getting at i'm wondering how much the police department spendos their work to

prevent fatalities less than 10 receives active low on the stloets with the purpose of trying to catch folks who are violating traffic. i think when we you there has been a 90% reduction in folks to my knowledged for traffic riligzs. i wander like if way are spending 50 million dollars a year on the issue. and when you go at this time vision zero website make its clear it is departmental. and citied with issue the mayor and board and everyone wants to give a speech. we spending 50 million dollars i year and may be our brother and sisters are spending one? 2? it seems unfair because we will spends the money on all of our treatments but what i to being

away from your presentation is we are spending more money dog a lot of thing and traffic fatalities remained in the. the only factor i think of this is changing any negative way is enforcement the only thing this changed in a thing this less is done then and there done before. am i missing manage. we also had fatalities tickets issued was in the addressing the issue. the chart was an indication now san francisco has know experiment you are like low to get in a crash then and there a traffic citation. that is an experiment could be negative. it is manage we decided to do as

a city how that impacts the roadways, we don't know. i right a motorcycle and never seen a police car pullover like a speeding vehicle or run a red light in 7 years of riding. as a motorcycle rider when i spent 7 or 8ieros streets and never see that okay taken. i imagine mag it does create mentality of reckless driving. never seen a police officer pull machine over who republican a relate. you are much less likely to think damn i should in the run a red light i may get pulled over. how do you quantify the behavior of drivers? this is know area of sociology. what we looked at the public a

sdoir to act safe they are self met i haved and rule following don't want to get this crashes. most people are i think rule following when than i notoriety roadways they are obeying things than i are not enforced the question is when is the percentage of the drivers or people on the roadway that are sensitive to enforcement and will do thing catharsis reckless and that are unsafe if well is in enforcement. and so that is manage where the lit are tour and people debate about what is the impact on enforcement now we are an agency that enforces ping. if you don't pay the meter you get a ticket. this is your lesson. there is a tler tow traffic if we don't give negative reenforce am people may do things in

selfish interests and in the in the interests of society. to go become give out more ticket this is is in the the solution. like i said there has been plenty of evidence and studies this right-handom increases in traffic enforce am may not being the solution. what we need to focus we have limited resource system focused attention on the locations and behaviors result manage deaths. >> 2 more questions. america is a country more are i doing on streets and others moving in the other direction, why? when are they doing? this was per of the hour presentation. um. the top line. sorry. why had are than i dog this we ksdz do. y would recommend the work of david sip are written for slate manage zeb article busy what canada doing.

that is jeopardy an and iceland doing different low. when you look at them than i ever structuring it not on having fast vehicle movement. there are alternatives. people can take transit when than i are tired and people have to take transit young people have alternatives. and there are better social service better education. and -- better regulation of vehicles. and again. a society that has. and we start out making fun of sudden front being different. can you be car fro in san francisco we have a decent transit system. if you step out and go to cities the way to move is to own a ridiculous and the way to move toions and education is it drive fast on streets of that you know issue instead designed for pedestrians you will have more

fatalities then and there tokyo or paris or barcelona. when you go to cities making progress they are transit department cities where there is a lot of bicycling and the roadways have been designed to encourage slow spoed that is in the in the u.s. a built environment issue and i know when we talk like this we go like. this is such a huge problem to address. it seems overwhelming. and i don't want the message to be we are being defeatist. but i think doomth the safe system approach at a federal level makes us have to confront the big problems in a serious way and hopefully solutions coming from the federal government and state government that address the other issues that are more systemic. regulatory issues, lu, resources and and the way that funds are

spent. there is plenty of studies this indicate how other cities are and countries rows are doing better. circling not an area the lead or the example or the thing to follow we need to learn from other places. >> thank you. on motorcycles obviously the largest growth in the worse category we have here. why do you think there has been a growth in motorcycle deaths in the last few year. i believe in the previous presentation we talk period having the dmv require motorcycle drivers to go back for some regular safety course work or some refresher. do you know if this had legs and why do you think there has been so many motorcycle deaths in the last few years >> like i said it is important to keep in mind not all

motorcycles getting in more crashes. not this there are more riding motorcycles or a problem with the mode as a whole. there are few are injured in motorcycles in the pandemic initial low and san francisco and more people being killed per miles driven and total. if you electric at motorcycles they combine the worse aspects of driving you go fast. but they don't are protections of vehicles you don't have the seat belts and the cushion and so the vulnerable go really fast. so if people choose and can go fast for whatever reason the consequences are deafening. why more are dying buzz they are going faster. that is one of the min causes of of the crashes is people going fast and losing control or hit boy others or not seen. we are not saying all are the

fault of the motorcyclist when the motorcycle goes fast and does not have air bags and seat belts and metal the end result is death. you understand why the threat of a motorcycle why there it is an increase versus other times. again. we can get in speculations people are travelling fast nert pandemic and both motor vehicles and motorcyclists if you travel faster you mihit a pedestrian and injury your. in the case of a motorcycle does not take much to be severe low injured if hit boy a vehicle. this is manage my jewish mother reminds me you have often when i put my helmet on.

my last question following up on director hemmier's questions had we find a new date for vision zero? i mean when are we supposed to hit this goal. next year? so is it time for us to say -- like -- i agree we need some yard stick it say we will hit if we are saying we will try to get to the mile stone you think we need to of >> i do. theent of 20 torthat is 16 months away. i don't know if that is now. director heminger talked about i pol for the board. i think there is death to do to figure out when a trackable date is the goal is not get all the way to zero by a date in the

future. that will allow you to have more informed decisions about how aggressive we want to be street design we know will be hard decisions for you as a board will affect traffic safety. we will have director hinze and then public comment. go ahead director hinze. >> i'm also happy to wait if you want to go to public we have to be here. we have to be here until the end anyway. i would love to do that. it is getting late.

i want to put people back in the equation i live on hyde street you are aware this a lot of drivers think hyde and larken are freeway extensions. this got to stopful i seen someone get hit and a dramatic experience.

we need it talk about and address injuries. life changing injuries the brain injuries. being paralyzed long hospital stays fear of dying were the youred in all of this and they are people, too much we have to address them as when are fatal crashes then the close calls we all had them. driver who whips through the red light the driver who floor its to turn left after the light

changed. s we walk across. drivers ignore the speed limit and terrorize neighborhoods with ping. it is traumatic, scare and credits i lasting fear. there is much to be done and needs to help now not later. there is no more important work than saving lives. >> thank you. hi. i spoke earlier about an incident i got hit and the intersection of broadway and car turning left a full stop and floor today when he got to green. i know there is, loment of great work going on. the around the quick builds. i want to plug for turn calming again.

turn calm nothing new york city the stream insfauled 509 locations and according to the titail website there is 7 intersections that have this in our city. i urge the sfmta to look at the high injury network and see where this can be installed.

this of a goal they did not want to propose a design that would introduce more bans on vehicle behavior. we saw argument with flank everfrank listen street the street had level of service a. no congestion. increase congestion reduced vehicle speed regard will and driveways yours and deaths down. now that there is no rush hour remember traffic is dispursed throughout the day. we are ref vert to seeing what

our streets do. next speaker, please. i'm fran tailor and the pandemic provides with us a model. because remember those days in march and prospect when the signs were in every pole and every store front.

as far as the police got drum boat in the media about drug and homeless people has created this what i call a police state for certain people and i quote from the chronicle rests are used for loitering why narcotics are sold or used. where december it stop have the police and the wild west for drivers of so -- i would say team up with the d. public health they did temperature they did it and we owe them a debt of

gratitude forget the police skate boarders will tell you how well trained they are. in the 90's that reduced death it is don't forget critical mass. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon i'm jodi i'm the executive director of walk san francisco. we should be, laterald that pedestrians are still dying the rates and dangerous driving is the cause. cities in america like san francisco committed to vision wherevero and seeing the same numbers go up. and we are seeing cities double down on the things that are working. we are asking san francisco to be doubling down on when works, too. i want to be clear rigz zero is possible.

i see the city is in the doing enough to keep you go safer the gaej lan to implement the basic tool kit on 50 miles of the network must help boy december 24 and i'm asking to you ask them for clear mile stones for this plan. there is no reason for delay or reasons this goal cannot be met. we are asking walk san francisco they add to this quick build program for several wide multilane fast moving death traps. goth. franklinful bryant. harrison. ninth and 10th all to be addressed by december of 2024 than i need redesign. sfmta leadership needed now more than every. must keep the priority and keep the agency accountable and ask for game plans for getting the

quick builds done boy 2024. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> other speakers in the room? >> thanks, again. alita du prix. she and her i'm not an expert on vision zero i'm not a native of san francisco i'm a native of new york city i will ask to you grant me to spoke on this item. may be i have, let of strikes against people i have a driver's license from another state. i'm a proud and rider of scooters and bike share bicycles and damn daebel the in some car share driving i'm not going to do this tonight i'm tired when i leave i will go get on municipal

competence probably get a bus or bart across the bay and let member else driveway me around. i do know that i roadway responsible low. where i do ride scooters in in the street. that's where than i belanguage in the street. i'm not going to ride them on the sidewalk because i'm at risk of hitting people and i don't want this liability in my life. you misee me if you see me riding scooters that when i get red to park a scotter you will see me on the sidewalk i used one yesterday at the trans bay center i walked 500 feet purke the scooter as a pedestrian it is in the poseed be ridden on the plaza at the transit center. i'm saddened there are bad actor and people who are driving cars and motorcycles and pedestrians when are -- we can do better

there is a let of pers to the mix. all i can say is is that i know what it is like to be in the mix i will roadway scooters, thank you. why other speakers. >> hi luke i did not plan to come down today or give comment i felt obligated because of the talk about police enforcement. you know as one of the 2 people who crist create analyze police data at data is not correlated with street safety. as we have seen from 20 then to now sfpd traffic enforce am dropped. and we have seen stead ed roadway deaths. i think i want to dismiss this thought if we increase enforce

am on streets with harm enforcement that traffic fatalities will disappear and more will disappear. i think it is's darrox precedent to set where we point if anything near another department for a problem that is within the agency's authority and ability. focusing on that. we know it works from around the world it is redesigning streets for safety what we don't do well in the city now is redesign streets quickly using best practice designs. we spends a lot of time doing quick builds that do almost nothing i will take the south vaness as an example. when this was proposed the [inaudible] the roadway width the same. i suggested protected bike lanes or widening the sidewalks.

the reason begin it would reduce parkoth street. i respect staff a lot but they are not doing enough and need to you enable them and mandate them to do better. we can enforce no turn on reds across the city and daylighting. there is so much motor agency can do without the- pd or enforce am body. thank you. remote comment. first speaker. good evening board of directors i'm clairea modly i'm the director of advocacy at san francisco coalition thank you

for the detailed report and a thoughtful discussion. we echo urgency of partners at walk san francisco last year deadliest for traffic fatalities poeding is the number one cause for traffic in serious injuries. we know seniors and people with disabilities and folks in equity priority community more at risk i wish the report stated mile stones and deliverables for the when we are doing about it, section. show than i make streets big exert time lineers pushed become or not completed by the dead line putting safety at risk we will cannot delay on the remaining 50 plus miles of the high injury network. there is so much work and aspoiration policed on the active community. the time lines don't add up and not clear low articulated have a

plan in spring of 2024 will construct project by december of 2024. vice chair cajina and others said redesign is in the enough. roaching our goals requires a layered prop involved clankingeration with all diameters not reflect in the this presentation. >> >> good evening this is borrowy electrono. it is great to see ricardo doing

the presentation he is great. thing is i will disagree with him using the parking meter citation. changing behavior. no, i got a ticket while going to poe in a cup and because the only location and took longer so -- it was manage i could not help i did not know it was going to take an hour half everenvelope for mow to bait and provide the drug testing. so it was horrible anal gee about and behavior i want to say i disagree that steppingum park enforcement longer muni routeds might help a bit toward a dangerous driving behavior provided by cars that are using -- passengers zones and taxi stands illegal low and bus stops. go to 24th and mission.

check out 24th and mission you will see that there is little ping enforcement there. the double ping on the street is horrible especially in the evening. if you don't want to provide more parking in the evening hours with it is needed then you are going to continue to put people in danger. it adds up. that's what you can do. >> thank you very much. so i know it is a problem. director heminger is correct. that the scooters are out of control. and good to hear permitted ones are causing less damage. others are going around. you can rung light and stop signs and the wrong way down one way streets. hard to predict had they drive crazy. thank you >> next speaker, please.

>> hi. [inaudible] i get african-american the city on municipal and he my bike this board's stimulate and today's presentation make is dhoer the mta maintains commitment to vision wherevero missing, counting what stands in our way. i want to talk about the factors include the fire department. no vision zero plan. and obyekts to hard protections for street users, electric of the citywide leadership role demanding cross department collaborations. lack of leadership in the city. create space and lastly includes sfmta internal organization reflects lack of approach to planning. examples include active communities plan on the street and messes pedestrians.

rather than creating come least streets complete partial low complete streets and lost opportunitiful lincoln quick build miss bikes. these realities are missing. large low pointses to external problems i urge the board to dig in the problems that are elementing the agency ability to move quickly and belled low. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. sdoenl believe [inaudible] roaching rigz zero. . [inaudible] go to sacramento advocate for enforcement. complain about sfpd lack of enforce and ignore the one thing this is within your control today. that is our street scape. the amount of surface available

the dimensions of it, which vehicles this space is for. people walk, beak and riding scooter cannot kill motorists the danger from the large are ridiculouses operated by humans drivers other problem the way to educate prioritize every mode over motor vehicles. don't talk to schoolchildren about when they should do build them all school streets protecting them 24/7. take every merchant customer dover and turn it over to people. forget the drunk drivewaying psa don't worry about trans lagz make this city difficult to navigate by car. stop the grid of wide streets. build garden and housing so people can live instead of vehicles or having to drive miles.

k rail. stop asking people when they think and how they feel. take face from xars give it to transit and people. peculiar transit and increase bikeers. make our city healing and and appeal happy refer. get people outside of cars. together in the public realm. thank you. next speaker, please. good evening. i'm julie nicholson from district 8. as you know many of you i'm a crash survivor from 2020 in the panhandle on masonic and oak and a member of families for safe streets and walk sf.

i want to say thanks to the board for focussing on vision zero as a survivor i appreciate your commitment i know chair eastbounding sxen you care and others care. i feel i care about it matters. and we than pedestrians are dying at, lateraling rate and have to do more. so things like your commitment to address more than 50 miles of dangerous streets that have not had safety improve ams i hear about this this . is finish taft and i canmented to say thank you and i will keep showing and up keep coming and waiting for hours on the calls and coming in front to say we have to keep pushing and doing more. fix our deadly streets and move to seeing the metrics out come i want to ask you if staffing and resources do have a plan i heard

jodi say from walk sf. to make the 10 learningest fastest streets safer. what about the 900 directions on the high injury network is there a plan with accountability that you will be tracking? and are you going to use all the sfeed management tools that were presented in the 2022 speed management plan in i want to leave you with 2 thoughts thank you for your agency commitment it means a lot to mean as a crash survivor and keep holding yourself to the highest bar possible. that we can get to vision zero. thank you. >> next speaker, please. hemo~ board members and staff i'm michael a residents in d8. i live on stanion notoriety park where sick lanes for you sdprfl 2 parking lanes.

i live the bottom of a hill drivers notice up and down my block trying to beat a light. a 25 miles per hour street but they average closer to 40. we know well is a mounts ain't of evidence they've will live streets cause speeding. and when drivers go fast they don't yield and likely to kill machine.

thank you. second silva director hinze thank you. no problem. i'm glad we got to the public. late hour but malt decent hour.

i think it is i have a couple of questions and then to the advantage going [inaudible] all of my wonderful colleagues mostly [inaudible] i did have a couple questions for -- [inaudible] still there. i don't know? i will ask to you tell me where is your first camera might go. if you are we covered and poke if you have anymore details or want to poke to a criteria for what they would be -- this is [inaudible] i have not

[inaudible]. so. the criptoryia for where the cameras might g. i know high injury network. if you want on to speak to that i wanted give the town to do that. >> am thank you for the question. there are controls around where we can put the come ares in the bill but don't have locations yet. those being san francisco will be limited to 33 cameras part of the pilot. . the -- limitations are -- that they have to be with high injury network in school zones and a history of speed racing that is manage this los angeles and other cities have big problems with and want to make sure that were in the bill in addition there is a public process this

has to be carried out before we can locate any of the come ras required before weeen turn come ares on that is anm pact report and identify the exact addresses where the cameras would go. and those00 althoughed need to be in the report we need to justify the locations based on crash data. and -- that impact report would noticed to be heard and approve in the a public hearing. after the bill passes ore our teaman likewise and prosecute pose a number of the best candidates that we would then look to the community and receive other input where we would eventual low locate them inform terms of today where we put them the intersections and

addresses are i don't know. i know when the guidelines are in terms the bill says and also director tumlin mentioned than i do need to be diversified and across locations with varying incomes we can't cluster them in locations. hard to cluster 33. yoo we don't have many to cluster. i can tell this be a process. ir. to thank you for your work. i think i first met am [inaudible] sick years ago when we for a long time. my other question for --

director goir and i wanted to thank that yet of the quick build tool kits is fan taft being and i department to ask about and i wanted to staffing capacity relating to the quick builds and other -- neighborhood work. and i'm glad you highlights dedicated to tenderloin work. i have great respect for the team that works in the tenderloin and the work they do.

i think this work is making a difference. better critical to the work. >> thank you for the question. director. we talked about the 17 quick build and thes if i have to 6 million dollars worth of tool box. as we had this money we need to do that work. for the mta shops i think when we are doing now.

i hope you see a shift from mix of things to more focus on road users. a policy echo -- i know i don't have questions for anyone you can sit down. i did want to echo the thoughts of my colleagues that i think we need to push other [inaudible] to all we can in vision zero i think it is a plus collective -- effort among all city departments.

i side with my clothes i think that the 2024 dead line was a

good dead comploin good goal have. exit think this just because in of when we are hearing today this does not mean the agency is stopping the work that they are doing. i think that we need to renew or commitment. after -- we had this. [inaudible]. that might work and might not now that we are 10 years. under our belts. thank you. >> thank you director hinze. all right. i wanted to thank you for director tumlin for the idea of the quarter low deep dive and e involving the way we treat this is rit and thank staff for the thoughtful w this went in this. this is exact low had i was hope

to see in these quarter low deep dives thank you. my to which level question is i know it hen a long meeting we ask the questions you have to answer them iax knowledge that. top level most important question is, in terms of what we make sense of the data and when we are learning, want that always to be informing our straj and us be sharpning our strategic and more effective. i'm not sure i saw that precise adjustment to our strategy. billsod what we are learning. i saw in what we are doing the same things we have been doing. don't seem to be working. may be being up arounds that for us based on everything we did the deep dive are we modifying the strategy in light what we learned. most important thing is electric

at places where there has been success. there has been a reduction in collisions. reduction in cyclist and deaths and collisions the left 3iers we want to 11 in the tools that make that happen. the tool kit is am if we started with the idea of rebuild every street we are now down to the very peculiar piece of if you recollect that affect that change that is lone to what is working. i think it is in the way the quick build team to accelerate the ideas how to deliver change this is fast exert not waiting for a planning process but doing temperature i think the acp is something i like to talk more about. there was a comment i forget the details. the fundamental tension with long-term plan and the urgency.

i of course those are areas we mead to work with d. public health and others to see how we make a dent in the issues. i want to you see us pushing on that is working. >> okay. >> great. >> so the number that stuck out

50% are helping on the nonfreeway multilane streets we know and they go faster driving. are we focussed on leveraging that information? we heard machine talk about goth and franklin and one way streets that are so fast are we doing everything we can on those streets throughout high injury lane treatments. the high injury network is guiding decision making that is the too many we used to phoning us the attention on the streets

that are the 12% costing 60% of injuries. i don't have the exact numbers. that includes our artear yol streets. we have made progress the problems you see initial low the streets that have no accommendation per pedestrians uninterrupted length this is have no controls or stop signs or traffic signals the streets in san francisco we have a lot of multilisten but more controls so people cross in a safer manner. we have street is thats need further action and we have load many of our streets during the

past decades that had multiple lanes have one lane in each direction.

you and i went out and did a rapid sponse an intersection with a camera and a protect the bike lane and machine running from i cop. i understand exactly what you are trying to say and what i'm trying to get out given that statistic you have about the 60% on multilanes when we talk bh spot improve ams to high injury network are the most effective we could be picking to the very dangerous and fast streets? most crashes at the intersection. turning vehicles versus pedestrians is the classic. speed makes the crashes worse.

when we talk about hardning the turn and head start signals banning terms. this is about draegsz the simple top. we should be effective. i think there is a lot to think about here from the board about whether there are a few places as i talked about the fastest street in thes city. tuck burglar had a road diet would look like. we got work to do. i want to make sure we understand that yes people get hit and car versus car crashes the intersections the majority of pedestrian fatalities take place. things that change the intersection they may not look peck tax lar but doing the work. loss of prop a with 65.1% of the

vote that cut 40 million dollars a year. we lost 40% of fund and asked to deliver more quickly than we have done before. the trick we learned is that one, while our quick build approach is far from perfect more effective than we thought. the quick build is in the allowing us to move quickly and attract, state and federal grand fund to build out the streets and hard extent folsom is an patch. the challenges we face is than i trigger redoing the traffic signals and this come at what price per inspection? that's whale are standing up

against. well is no universe we have the resource to proper low redesign our streets we are working on getingly become to the ballot getting back requires wing 2 third's support. one thing i want to addiels earlier what has been working san francisco over time pent opinion tow provide more crossings this are safer when i worked for the city geary used to have i number of uncontrolled crossings you crossed 3 lanes and over time we significant napized every crosswalk on streets like that. so that pedestrians have i safe controlled environment. look at our major streets.

we installed signals over time. other things allow cross traffic to cross and connect. there are less of those crashes that used to happen now the crashes are happen nothing i different way. i don't want to minimize the fact we had successes in the past with certain crashes the distance with safe crossings. i hear you say willing is in worlgd we have enough moncompetence want to flip that i want a decision for the steets. and i want you all to tell under the circumstances had it will cost. this board deserves to then and there we can make the trade offs

when this will cost verses other investments. upon one manage the director asked for. the quarter low dives going forward i life to are specific metrics and targets we are after and measure ourselves. use the quarter lose accountsability moments. go how are we doing. 50 miles today. what does this mean if bien of 24 when do we need by our next one top have done. i want that data aspect of the work. nancy in the audience had is about injuries, too. not just fatalities. i had a moment to speak and the

hull way. should not have to be scared they are here today with us today and it is not our vision of the city people have to be scared we can reach vision zero and not be the city we want to be i think we want to be a place people can feel safe and comfortable, thriving walking around. and so has to be vision zero injuries, too. i think. not just vision zero if talitities that is bringing mow to i worry we are still not thinking big enough. and to director hemmier's point what would a policy look like that being help us achieve

vision wherevero one supervisor tossed an idea. may be a mack number of lanes that any street in san francisco is allowed to be. we are trying to save in streets

cross gave us a list of agencies in the city to reach out to and i signed up for the below-market rate program. i got my certificate and started applying and won the housing lottery. [♪♪♪] >> the current lottery program began in 2016. but there have been lot rows that have happened for affordable housing in the city for much longer than that. it was -- there was no standard practice. for non-profit organizations that were providing affordable housing with low in the city, they all did their lotteries on their own. private developers that include in their buildings affordable units, those are the city we've been monitoring for some time

since 1992. we did it with something like this. where people were given circus tickets. we game into 291st century in 2016 and started doing electronic lotteries. at the same time, we started electronic applications systems. called dalia. the lottery is completely free. you can apply two ways. you can submit a paper application, which you can download from the listing itself. if you apply online, it will take five minutes. you can make it easier creating an account. to get to dalia, you log on to housing.sfgov.org. >> i have lived in san francisco for almost 42 years. i was born here in the hayes valley.

>> i applied for the san francisco affordable housing lottery three times. >> since 2016, we've had about 265 electronic lotteries and almost 2,000 people have got their home through the lottery system. if you go into the listing, you can actually just press lottery results and you put in your lottery number and it will tell you exactly how you ranked. >> for some people, signing up for it was going to be a challenge. there is a digital divide here and especially when you are trying to help low and very low income people. so we began providing digital assistance for folks to go in and get help. >> along with the income and the residency requirements, we also required someone who is trying to buy the home to be a first

time home buyer and there's also an educational component that consists of an orientation that they need to attend, a first-time home buyer workshop and a one-on-one counseling session with the housing councilor. >> sometimes we have to go through 10 applicants before they shouldn't be discouraged if they have a low lottery number. they still might get a value for an available, affordable housing unit. >> we have a variety of lottery programs. the four that you will most often see are what we call c.o.p., the certificate of preference program, the dthp which is the displaced penance housing preference program. the neighborhood resident housing program and the live worth preference. >> i moved in my new home

february 25th and 2019. the neighborhood preference program really helped me achieve that goal and that dream was with eventually wind up staying in san francisco. >> the next steps, after finding out how well you did in the lottery and especially if you ranked really well you will be contacted by the leasing agent. you have to submit those document and income and asset qualify and you have to pass the credit and rental screening and the background and when you qualify for the unit, you can chose the unit and hopefully sign that lease. all city sponsored affordable housing comes through the system and has an electronic lottery. every week there's a listing on dalia. something that people can apply for. >> it's a bit hard to predict how long it will take for someone to be able to move into a unit. let's say the lottery has happened.

several factors go into that and mainly how many units are in the project, right. and how well you ranked and what preference bucket you were in. >> this particular building was brand new and really this is the one that i wanted out of everything i applied for. in my mind, i was like how am i going to win this? i did and when you get that notice that you won, it's like at first, it's surreal and you don't believe it and it sinks in, yeah, it happened. >> some of our buildings are pretty spectacular. they have key less entry now. they have a court yard where they play movies during the weekends, they have another master kitchen and space where people can throw parties. >> mayor breed has a plan for over 10,000 new units between now and 2025.

we will start construction on about 2,000 new units just in 2020. >> we also have a very big portfolio like over 25,000 units across the city. and life happens to people. people move. so we have a very large number of rerentals and resales of units every year. >> best thing about working for the affordable housing program is that we know that we're making a difference and we actually see that difference on a day-to-day basis. >> being back in the neighborhood i grew up in, it's a wonderful experience. >> it's a long process to get through. well worth it when you get to the other side. i could not be happier.
