>> vice chair heinicke: sure. >> chairman brinkman: all right. >> vice chair heinicke: so thank you for the residence -- presentations. very well done. that's certainsally --s that's personally grat fieing for your. our friend was here, i wish you would have went to him first. take that as a compliment that it is. this is a residential program in part. maybe i missed it. do we have feedback from the dog patch neighborhood association or whatever the name of that group is? i ashould it is sporlt i have. -- i assume they have support. >> the suggestion about free parking for people who aren't working and shopping there, the suggestion is people are using this basically as a long-term parking lot leaving their car there is and then coming back and getting them. >> that's the insenduation. >> vice chair heinicke: so you talked about double parking and obstru obstructing vehicles. is this program going to address that. do you think that regulating parking will lead to fewer people double parking and object -- obstructs -- obstructing roads? >> if no one is moving you'll have more double park

. >> vice chair heinicke: following on the scooter regulation, you are proposed something in a meeting or two. >> two weeks from today. >> vice chair heinicke: that's an ambitious time frame for something new and unprecedented. looking forward to hearing about it then. i will align myself with many of the comments of director torres. i sort of was surprised to see this pop up over night and some of the issues that concerned me are the safety issues and folks just dropping the scooters there. before we rush to judgement maybe the thing to do is to hear from them and -- so that prompts another question. did you orlando staff know this was going to happen? did these companies reach out to us and say we are going to begin operating in san francisco and sort of make an effort like we've seen other -- scoot coming to mind. was this a surprise to the mta? >> more the latter. there was at least one of the companies that came in and talked to us. they did not indicate that they would be starting operations but they did talk and explain their model as i understand it. by and large i think the an

first to director heinicke, i think you sounded pretty confident, perhaps overly presumptuous that directors franklin and borden will be reappointed, supervisor peskin specifically called them out yesterday for not checking in with his office and just assuming that members appointed by the mayor would be confirmed by the board of supervisors, so we'll see what happens at the board today. with respect to the new logo, there was a marketing piece or some handout that went to employees yesterday that i saw. i think that this is a terrible idea. i would note in terms of history, muni, which is 105.5 years old has had three logos in that 105 year history. now mta at only 18 years has also had three logos. historically, the best logo, i think was the original o'shaugnessy logo, the logo still seen on tokens. this is the first time i've heard about it. i don't know if board members have heard about it before. it wasn't in the budget. if there was stakeholder outreach. it was another example of stakeholder outreach. it's just a bad choice, a bad priority, a bad distraction for an agency that has rea

. >> good afternoon, commissioner vice chair heinicke, and fellow commissioners. i want to give a shout out to your commissioner rubke, and it's going to precede what i'm going to say here. for the last 20 months, her and i actually working with the port of san francisco on the master land use plan. i chaired the transportation committee, and this is very significant because we're talking about the southern waterfront, which is the india basin, which is where the hunters point shipyard project is located. and i also wanted to see here it's taken us 18.5 years. i was the chair of the land use and transportation plan. we yielded the candlestick point project to the shipyard. we anticipate that this is going to be a great, a great development. guess what? sf mta was in there with us. you provided your staff. we also have counseling from sf cta, the mtc, and all the major agencies in the city. we had actually put together a master plan and conducted a larger feasibility study. what i need from you and i'm going to implore that you give us your blessing today. i'm goin

director heinicke had a fantastic job. i was on a student rush hour bust yesterday and it was fascinating. it's not a line i usually ride during the week. it's usually a weekend line for me. the number of students using that bus going to san francisco state and various public and private high schools along the way was truly impressive. there were kids doing their homework on the bus. i know not a recommended study habit practice, but parents getting kids to day care, students getting themselves to school. it was a good reminder of how important the service that we provide s i wanted to take the opportunity to tell everybody we're doing a good job. the bus certainly could probably shorten its time with some muni forward help, but it was hea heartening to see. any other new or unfinished business? >> i did want to -- i would love it get an update with the cybersecurity threats happening more and more and last year we had that issue where someone asked for bit coin for us, i would like to get a procedure on what we're doing t

part of the program, chariot is sharing the type of data that director heinicke is referring to. chariot is paying for the cost of running the program. chariot suggested over 100 stops to comply with permit requirements and to address public concerns. chariot will only design routes that complement public transit and not compete with it. in addition to working with sf mta, chariot invests in the community. chariot employs the entire workforce half of them who live in the bayview. they pay for each driver to complete a commercial driver's licensing program. they pay for the cost of the program and the drivers to sit through the program at $16.50 an hour. we are proud of our partnership with the teamsters local 665 who negotiated good wages and benefits for the members, setting the bar for micro transit in the bay area. they reduce congestion by removing ten single occupancy vehicles per chariot on the road. we're committed to safety as he ca -- accessibility with a fleet of wheelchair accessible vehicles we have and we have an in-app function that you can request a wheelchair acce

>> just to piggyback on what chair heinicke said, the current amount on the road right now does not impact how you would allocate. so in other words the concern was expressed that because somebody didn't put out the scooters already, that does not put that company at a disadvantage in the allocation, is that correct? >> that's correct. >> any other questions on these amendments? okay. seeing none, i would entertain a motion on the amendment. i thought we -- i'm sorry. a voice vote to all those in favor -- all those in favor please say aye. all those opposed. okay. those are adopted. director rubke, you had some more questions to ask. >> thanks. we had a lot of important concerns, and i know you are thinking about these concerns for people with disabilities and just convenient i donsenio sidewalks with people riding scooters on the sidewalks. that's a huge problem, and so i'm just wondering, are we -- are we giving -- well, also, not just riding fast on the sidewalks, but when scooters are blocking the sidewalk, if somebody else knocks them down or whatever, and also if they're tied up to a
