that hearing was call because of the male that died at the west portal station. that should have been called when the female died, which is seven months beforehand. so i want a hearing on those three departments that took place this past week to ask them why didn't you catch the history of this contractor which caused those two people to lose their lives? is that clear? all right. >> that concludes our business for today. >> one more statement. we are the one. that is our first single that we made. that is our opinion. >> i can't argue with you. >> you are responsible please do not know his exact. [♪] [♪] [♪] >> i had a break when i was on a major label for my musical career. i took a seven year break. and then i came back. i worked in the library for a long time. when i started working the san francisco history centre, i noticed they had the hippie collection. i thought, if they have a hippie collection, they really need to have a punk collection as well. so i talked to the city archivist who is my boss. she was very interested. one of the things that i wanted t

the second demonstration pertains to a male that was hit at west portal station. he too was killed by the negligence of a contractor. the contractor was checked and prequalified and passed all the tests, which is a boldfaced lie. he lost his life too on the job site. >> thank you. any other public comment on this item? seeing none, the public comment is -- public comment? >> sorry. public comment is now closed. do you have -- i might have to skip item a and go to item nine for now. because we have two drop our time -- we have dropped dropdead time at 4:00 pm. can you call item number 9? >> item nine is update on plan for pedestrian signal retiming. this is an information item. >> good afternoon commissioners. i'm here with the sfmta. i am the city traffic engineer. you had asked us to provide you an update on what it would take or how long it would take for us to the time the entire traffic signal system based on our previous discussion that we had developed a new crossing time for pedestrians. a slower walking speed of 3 feet per section -- per second. and your i

he died at the west portal station. the california occupational safety and health administration has a history of violations including a november 2016 accident which a worker operating a forklift died after losing control and going into a trench. ok. the san francisco transit officials who oversee the beds and the contracts for the work said that the construction met all the requirements of prequalifying for the bid. i want to refresh you on the hearing that you called because of that accident how several departments came and testified about all these procedures that they go through in order to prevent accidents like this from happening. and it proved how they are not doing their job. if they were, accidents would never have took place. as you can see right here on the section where they make their demonstrations, they talk about prequalifying packed by different departments in the city. it is a bald-faced lie. if they did, the accident would not happen. on one of the questions they were asked have you had any history o

account for the employee that dies on the job site because of poor performance working at the west portal station. you got all these prequalifications examples and routines that you're supposed to go through. if you did all these procedures, how did the death of an employee take place on the premises of the city and county of san francisco with this contract. both of your demonstrations claim that you have all those checks and balances to make sure a situation like that doesn't take place, and it turns out this contractor had a history of numerous violations and serious accidents on the job and shouldn't have been awarded that contract on the first place. talking about your liability, first of all, the city is liable because you can't screen that contract, okay? you didn't screen that history of that contractor. that's all negligence. a good attorney could come up and blame the city when the truth of the matter it's called contributory negligence because the city contributes to the problem by letting that contractor get that job when they shouldn't have had it with the type of history that they h
