at the bottom is geary. at the middle, bottom left, you can see the hospital's debt, and on the bottom right is the office building site, and the upper left, the office building, so this is focused on this new building. i am going to zoom into each of these graphics and a second, so do not kill your eyes too hard on that, but one thing i'd like to point out is that there are no -- on van ness avenue, ok? so here is a zoom in to the hospital side. the blue eras indicate vehicular access in and out, and the purple arrows are pedestrian access, so you will notice that cars in bound to the hospital parking garage are going to enter geary, the area on the south, or they can enter on the top. those are the two access points into the parking garage, and from there, you can see the passenger loading zone. all of that passenger pick-up and drop-off will be inside the hospital and not on the street. cars exiting the hospital are only going to exit on to post street on the north. there is a secondary egress point on to

there will be no exit onto geary, and there is no emergency exit onto geary either. it is tw increases inthere is ag area accessed off of cedar street as well, to the left of the garage parking area. there is a passenger drop off zone on a street on a cedar. that is on the left or right next to van ness avenue. there will be additional loading inside the garage. there will be an intended to direct people into the garage for additional drop off. that is the medical office building, and that concludes the traffic circulation overview. i am going to talk about construction and how it relates to transportation. same orientation. van ness again is in the middle. geary on the bottom. this is showing the truck route. trucks will be coming to and from, heading to the south primarily. they will be coming up van ness avenue. trucks that are servicing the hospital site will make a left onto geary. they will circle around in a clockwise fashion. you can see the door symbols. those are the construction dates. trucks will be stopping all along the perimeter, all four blocks around

access out will be only on to geary street. there is no emergency egress at all on to geary street. cedar street will be converted from one-way operation to two-way operation. the cars that are exitting will have the ability to go right towards polk or have a new opportunity to go left and make a right turn. it gives them two exit points. there is a passenger pick up and drop off area right at the front door. there is also, in case that area fills up, additional loading within the garage. if that gets filled up it will be attendant for further cars to go into the garage. that is the medical office building. this diagram shows the truck routes. the majority of trucks serve pentagon the construction will be coming from the south, heading north if they are servicing the hospital site they will make a left on to gear and he travel clock wise around the hospital site and proceed south once they are finished. trucks would head north, make a right on to cedar and proceed in a clock wise direction and come back on geary and make a left when they are exitting. that is the temporary truck con

>> i do not exactly how long the closure of the geary transit lane would be. i do not know it the construction has developed that level of detail yet. i would imagine a leak during the excavation phase, the first year or two years. not the entire sequencing period. muni would have to operate in a mixed lane, so it will cause some delay for muni and traffic on geary. but it is a temporary situation. the point would be during the detailed construction planning to minimize the transit lane closure. commissioner borden: you're saying it will be like a year? >> i do not know of the top of my head. commissioner borden: i am just curious. do we have a signal prioritization for muni already along the geary corridor? >> mta is looking for a signal prioritization and priority city-wide. i am guessing that would be coordinated as part of the van ness avenue brt indeed geary project. i cannot speak to the details of how lakari and van ness -- how that would work, especially during construction. but i think the priority will mostly be for van ness, because it will have the

geary also has been making good progress. we will be conducting a cac meeting with the geary brt cac in the next few weeks in may. then we will be posting the actual upcoming outreach event update to that website. we're still finalizing locations. i apologize to do not have details are confirmed the locations yet. but we're trying to ensure that there is an opportunity to learn about the project in each of the four major segments. so we will have meetings in the downtown area, east of the van ness. and another set of meetings in the fillmore area. richmond as well. there will be a focus on the major nodes in each of these four segments. a potential option to fill the underpass. the masonic intersection which is very complex. in the western terminus will be engaging with washington high school and the school community on that part of the corridor. we are available, and we will be making the rounds to the various community groups and ensuring multi-lingual access and materials. the draft eis/eir would continue falling this roun

and geary. i think the block that was next

that is a tremendous benefit to the geary corridor. while it is definitely a little bit behind the van ness corridor, it becomes our next priority and probably a major regional priority for brt. i believe we're discussing this not just with mta but with the transportation commission as the next generation of priorities for the federal small start funding, because we think that, similar to van ness but perhaps even to a larger scale, the geary corridor has the ridership already in place, the largest ridership of in the corridor in san francisco, to really compete very effectively at the federal level. there are a few places in the country that could boast that kind of ridership, and those places would probably be applying for rail money already appeared we

it is a major disappointment for geary.has been named as a cart -- party for small start funds. what did not make the cut for us were geary brt, santa clara projects, under development, expecting to see money before the next rtp period. we are not technically precluded from seeking a small start fund but we would potentially be doing so without the benefit of the mtc's benefit -- silver approval. i still think we need to think about how we will approach this. we have the lack of a federal bill appeared when the bill passes, we need to see the revenue level, eligibility requirements. mtc staff included in their language, even though it gave prairies to the next project to the north bay and east bay, the carefully inserted warning that they have to go through a performance analysis and comply with all the requirements. it may be that some of those other projects to the magic of for funding. it is something that we will continue to work on with all of you to make sure that our products keep on moving forward. commissioner mar:

. >> and yuri -- kiri -- geary has a charge said it needs to be real ready. dealing with in this things will not actually be rail ready, and add to would be a more significant conversion. >> four looked pretty good. i guess the only problems there were that you were not able to run some of the non-electrified buses because of the doors they had. the door loading was difficult? >> yes, basically, there are not a lot of 5-store vehicles in existence, particularly for the electric buses. -- 5-door vehicles, particularly for the electric buses. we saw that as a key procurement risk. in particular, the diesel hybrid buses, there are five-door vehicles. if it was just that, it might have been a different conversation, but for this stage in time, it was just too big of a challenge. >> ideally, that is probably your best solution. it is something to think about because of a lot of your light rail boarding is usually one platform in the middle. you know, although there are some in subway situations, that probably would be the -- as far as the concern about having medi

>> i have always been supportive of putting all of the post geary into six and moving the boundary from market to mission. but at this point it's getting into beyond minor tweak. that i hoped we would be addressing today. i'm satisfied where where we are with putting the bristol hotel back in the d-6 today. i would probably even be supportive of the maria manor block, but not in favor of reopening the discussion of market to mission and all of the post end geary. >> thank you. mr. leigh? >> it's sort of along the same lines that member schreiber just discussed. i agree with that. i also would be open to moving this block. it is a much smaller population move than any of the blocks that we have yet to move or that we didn't quite get to between post and geary. i think the block that was next between leavenworth and jones is 940 people and i agree with what member schreiber said, that's too much population at this point for us to consider moving and if that would require moving the boundary on the other side from market to mission, i would be reluctant to do that as well. the motivation b

and i know you are coordinating this with the plans for the geary brt. while i think this bus rapid transit might work on van ness because it is such a broad street, but the idea that it is going to work on geary, i think it is such a small street in not see how that will work. i think that is where you will have to figure out a weighted funding. but because that brings us to the question of what is going to happen at geary and van ness, if it is all above grade, the whole system might come to a grinding halt if he tried to have these lines fighting with each other. i encourage the work with other agencies to try to see if you can figure out a way to find funding to run at least a partial subway past then tested franklin or to laguna, and then you would have a broad street beyond that, and you have plenty of room for me in transportation -- median transportation. commissioner moore: i am concerned, picking up on it, and which resonates with me from commissioner gordon, that i think -- commissioner borden, that i think a multi modal transportation system

. >> it is at geary, then pine up octavia, over the california, down the canon, to pine again, to scott, back to bush, down to presidio, down to coast, broderick, and then it goes to church, masonic -- to turk, masonic -- >> so and that's geary, up to california to sixth avenue to lake street to 25th avenue, back to california, and then west of 32. >> just an observe. know we have been struggling with the deviation between one and two for many weeks now. i know we had many discussions around the cathedral hill border but the numbers are district five is over deviation by 2%. i'm not necessarily proposing anything. it's just an observation there may be population within 55.2 border if the task force members are continuing to think or struggle with the 1-2 deviations. >> the pros poll as, we will take them one at a time but the is to reverse the 64 population decision. the second would be to go to the 25th avenue block. everyone clear on the questions? >> yes. apologize. >> can i ask the implication of creating an assembly district for the purposes of 64 people on the median? >> it's just

i noticed there was something different about the northern side of geary boulevard between 22n and 23rd. it looked better, felt better, and felt like a nicer part of the neighborhood. there was a person who came out, "there is a woman who spends an hour or two every day, sometimes twice a day, and cleans the neighborhood. she trims the bushes and keeps everything clean puzzle it not only creates a visual difference. there is a different feel when you walk down that street. i am delighted she is getting that recognition. i hope she will set an example for other people. anyone can do this. it takes a little bit of time and of little bit of thought. the whole city will look and feel that much better. thank you for this recommendation -- thank you for this commendation, and congratulations. it is well earned. >> i want to add my kudos also. individual time spent picking something up make such a big difference. you can bet children will follow the same thing. we, as adults, set the example. you have done such a beautiful job. you make our neighborhoods clean, plus i feel so good. she does it

subway on 5650 geary boulevard. >> you are probably familiar with subway. with locations between 20 and 21st avenues. the restaurant is open until 2:00 a.m. and this is an application for extended hours permit which would allow it to remain open between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. the staff has received one letter protesting approval of the permit from a neighbor and business to doors down at 5638 concerned about noise, the garbage, drunkenness, and disorderly conduct. sfpd is proposing the application be approved with the condition of a security guard work between 10:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m. thursday through sunday. i'm not sure -- it might be asking for a motion for continuance to allow the applicant to get additional information. the staff recommends approval of this permit. >> are you asking for continuance? -- a continuance? you do not have to. you can go forward. >> we will go for it. >> you want to tell us more and why you want to open between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.? >> the cost of living in san francisco and the cost of doing business and capitalize on th

and bring back -- i believe we have it at sutter, and bring it back down to geary. >> correct. it's at sutter right now. population? >> that is a population of 756 people. it would bring the deviation for district 2 to a negative 3.16% and the deviation for district 5 to negative 1.40%. >> and that is about 1,49 people if we make those two moves, the one in russian hill and the one in cathedral hill. chairman mcdonnell: thank you. mr. leigh? >> could i just ask a clarifying question? could we see the overlay of the current district boundaries? yeah. just to get the information, could we see the population of those two additional blocks if we included those? >> do you want the total population for the entire area? >> yes. >> the total population of the selected area is 1,033 people. it would bring the deviation for district to to negative 2.78% and for district five to a negative 1.42%. >> all right. chairman mcdonnell: mr. leigh? >> sorry. am i supposed to vote on something now? [laughter] i was just asking for background information. chairman mcdonnell: you were just curious.
