we live in upper haight and i compute to king street for work. my wife's job is in foster city and she commutes using her bicycle and caltrain. i've seen a variety of improvements that have made my commute let terrifying. the conditions on townsend remain horrifying, particularly around the train station where you have taxis and delivery vehicles competing for access to the curb. i'm here to tell you firsthand that these conditions, a paint-on-the-ground bike lane is not effective. the inevitable result is injury to people on bikes. each time i ride through, i wonder, is this the day i get hit by an inattentive driver and fail it pick up our daughter from school or get a phone call telling me that my wife is in the hospital or worse because she was hit by a driver. or learn that a co-worker, who also commutes from the haight, was injured here and will require rehab before he can return to work. i was pleased to learn that the sfmta had been looking at this subject. i'm pleased to learn today that the temporary measures are in place and i look for

it runs from geary to fell and there will be some paving that will good from fell down to haight. and this is a project that is nearly complete and it's addressing one of the city's high-injury corridors. you will recall when we brought this to you for approval that at the time it was seeing a significant number of injuries and fatalities of all modes. people walking, people driving, people biking. so it really was a divider of neighborhoods almost like a mini freeway running through the neighborhoods in san francisco now includes a landscaped median. a public plaza will be one of the last pieces to get completed. upgraded utilities like water and sewer. of course, it's been repaved. there are bike lanes to go behind the bus stops, trees, sidewalk planters and pedestrian-scale lighting. by the time we next meet, the construction should be just about complete. this was largely funded by our own revenue bond to the tune of $26 million. really a transformational project and one that took a lot of community work up front and then design and construction work and now are nearing the en

being on the corner of haight and masonic, i've had eight years of road construction, every year, including five gas leaks during my busiest time. and again, all the road construction happens in the three months that i normally make all my money in because i lose money in all the other months. why it is not -- why d.p.a. or m.t.w. doesn't work more with the merchants in the area is beyond me. and if m.t.a. or d.p.w. was a small business, i don't think they would survive with how they act. it's like they do one project, and then, they tear the whole street up again, and they do another project. it should be more concentrated. and since we do have the highest minimum wage but also the highest cost of living, i implore the small business commission to encourage when we're building this affordable housing that a percentage of it goes to people who work in the neighborhood to encourage small businesses to have employees, to keep our costs down, do business better, and ensure that our businesses keep ongoing. thanks very much. >> thanks very much. >> hi there. i'm bob quinones. i'm the executive

and for that matter, proposed traffic signal at haight and buchanan. so i will consider weather to file a ceqa appeal on these matters. it would be great in the future when people show up at the friday engineering hearings exhibit with the poem's strategy discussed a month ago that we follow up with them, however they sign in and communicate with the agencies and whether they're going to the board on a date certain or being reviewed by staff and reconsidered to close the loop. if we made a commitment to public outreach, we need to be consistent on that. >> chairman brinkman: thank you. can i have a motion? all in favor? aye. lets have 10.2. >> clerk: environment review findings, travel and approve parking and traffic modifications with fillmore, someoney transit corridor. this was severed. >> on this item, there's a reference to the transit effectiveness project, d.i.r. and environmental note file. that note file is not available. i've been searching up and down for it. it's not on the -- anywhere that i found on the m.t.a. website. we need it make the

i forget if it was june 1 or june 8, there was both the haight street neighbor way proposal and a proposal on broadway, both of which staff insisted it would be brought to this board on july 17. that may well have changed because of subsequent planning and events, but i think it's important to keep people informed and to notify them, however they sign in at the hearings, that -- i'm being distracted, that what the status of these changes are. so if there is a date promised, if that date slips, we need to touch back with those people. it's -- the previous speaker just said, it's common sense. it's pretty easy to do. there weren't hundreds of people there, there were a small number of people. i mentioned earlier about the notes to file, the environmental exemptions, i think, should also be included with your calendar items, but these notes to file and one page staff determinations, if something isn't a project for purpose of ceqa, it's very easy to include. other policy bodies do, and this agency doesn't, and i think we should fix that. and i've also said before that on the 10.1 consent cale
