supervisor weiner: next speaker. >> my name is dan weaver. i was a member and chair and author of the utilities undergrounding task force report, which i hope the supervisors will look at and consider. of a trip to push you in that direction in these brief comments. i agree that permiting at dpw is often done in a one-off kind of way. this is so different from when the directors order was developed and issued, when i was serving on the committee. all the alternatives to the way it was done 10 years ago are not being looked at. none of them are being looked at in a serious way. we have bus shelters. still no co-location. no testing street furniture that could serve as a col-location. no undergrounding attempted. dpw should be taking the lead, along with city agencies as well as private companies trying to locate more boxes and facilities. the second major issue -- the general plan, the urban design part of it, calls for a san francisco street lighting plan. it has never been done. it needs to be done. any decent street lighting plan in san fra
