director hinze can go before me. i need a second. >> chair borden: director hinze. >> sorry. my mute button is a little -- my computer takes a bit. so i did just want to bring up that we -- since we've spoken about it, the twin peaks project, staff did say that they would bring back some kind of a report to the board, once that project has gone in. and there's some time for folks to experience it. i just wanted to raise that and say that whenever staff feels is appropriate, i think maybe -- whether that be in any way staff wants, an update on how that's sort of going to the board, would be appreciated. >> chair borden: thank you. we'll let staff follow up with you at a later time when they have some information. unless you have something to add at this point, director? >> no. >> chair borden: okay. great. director yekutiel. >> i'll make it quick. we can all agree that the music scene in san francisco is one of the things that makes us the greatest city in the union. and that our venues are our precious commodities and a dying breed. it's been a very, very difficult year for o

hinze. >> director hinze: thank you, director eaken and chair. a good presentation as always. i have a few questions and they should be quick. i know that there's more on restoration that we have outlined, the hours of 11:00 to 7:00 seemed sort of limited. and i was wondering if there was a specific reason for the kind of limited hours? >> hi. we currently have a limited number of f line trained operators in part because of pre-covid vacancies and in part because we haven't been able to train over the next year. but we're continuing to train and to hope to improve that over time. >> director hinze: okay. thank you. can you explain briefly this hotspot program. there's a little more than the name. but i have heard that before and it seems sort of relatively new and because of covid. >> thank you, director, good question. so pre-covid, this is probably going back nine to 10 months ago, we had -- we had started a hotspot program that was really based on the quick build process that little streets was going through to implement vision zero projects.

. >> chair borden: director hinze? >> director hinze: all right.e one question on muni and couple of on central subway may be for director mcguire. for fare free muni, i believe we had requested the same analysis that you're preparing to the board of supervisors. on that pilot, you shared with us. i'm not sure if this is the time to do that. just as a reminder for staff on that. on the pilot, i would urge staff to convey to the supervisors that we need -- similar to what director heminger said, if we are going to doal pilot, steady goals and specifically what the outcomes are going to be. on central subway, director mcguire, we don't have to wait until the punch list is completed? we can begin train testing before that happens? >> that's correct. we need to finish the key systems including the overhead wire and the power systems. the systems that are needed to minimally guarantee the train will be safe in there. >> director hinze: you'll come back to us pretty regularly with updates? >> absolutely. >> director hinze: my last question is also on the

. >> chair borden: director hinze?mmissioner hinze: i have two things, now that we have the item about the speed limit in the tenderloin about a month ago now and last week -- i believe partially the size went up and i'm wondering if potentially in a few months or so, in the context of the work and plans for moving forward, i'm wondering if follow up hearing might be on the impacts of the speed limit reduction as well as some follow up on enforcement. the other thing i know there's been some publicity around the connect sf and i'm wondering if the board might be interested in a later date. i know they have been doing a lot of virtual town halls as of late. in fact there's one tomorrow. those are my two things. >> chair borden: staff, we think it's fairly easy to -- i think what the tenderloin speed limit will probably take some time to see how it is affecting before we have a report. in terms of connect sf, the board got a presentation on this before. i'm sure we can -- director, let us know when you think it is a good

spoken. >> chair borden: do you want to speak first director hinze. >> director hinze: you can present your ideas and then i'll weigh in. >> director yekutiel: okay. they're very short and we are just responding to what the other board members have said. i would like to have a commitment from the sfmta to establish a process, a clear process, for us to determine whose car is -- whose car are we attempting to tow because that do not have the ability to pay for it. and is not presenting a safety concern for the neighborhood and the community. and whose car is presenting that concern and needs to be towed. so creates a process for us to be able to establish that and to make that determination and then being able to evaluate it at the point of tow. the second is to provide alternatives to towing non-abandoned vehicles for the board to discuss in the next three months what we are hearing is ways to make the towing less burdensome but i'd like to see what other things that we can do other than towing the vehicle. maybe we should work to come up with lots around the city to move the vehicles
