the sfmta will consider a five-year c.i.p. where between 2.6 billion and 3 billion for the next five years, and one year of our funding is typically around the 300 to 400 million level. this is one of 60 sources, so any one of those g.o. bonds, we use strategically. so on the street side of things, for example, opposition d, which was the last initiative for transportation funding, 50% of that is going to street safety. like, that was a priority then, and we really advanced that, and we were kind of in front on advancing the critical elements that went into that. examine through the state and federal governments, there will be other sources that we can tap into to fund projects of that type. the projects where we can't use our federal formula fund, there are no grants available from state or federal government. we are more likely to recommend have higher levels of general fund advancement because we have nobody else to ask for those projects. so there are many more opportunities for street related projects, and we'll be very a

the writer surveyed 2,964 sfmta bus stops across san francisco. through his research, he found that 32% of bus stops were obstructed by on street parking, forcing riders to step into the street to board and often navigate through parked cars. allowing parking in bus stops and failing to provide unobstructed access to public transit undermines san francisco's transit first policy and poses specific hardship for seniors and persons with disabilities. through the resolution today, i'm urging sfmta to promptly develop and implement a plan to promote unobstructed muni access and to consult with minority communities, including communities of color and underserved communities to promote unobstructed muni access. it directs the sfmta to report back to the board of supervisors within 90 days with a plan. and finally, colleagues, i'd like to offer an in memoriam for brian edwards, a tenacious advocate for san francisco's homeless, he passed away on november 4, 2021, at the age of 46. he spent the first year of his life in germany until his family relocated

so we've got sfmta, sfpuc, municipal transportation authority. i'm probably leaving others out, but we're working to ensure we not only improve the road condition but the utilities under neath, the transit and sidewalk both where we're letting pedestrians and passengers have a safe place to wait for the bus and to shorten the crossing distance from one side of the street to the other. it's a multisector approach, and we are doing this, as well, on the great highway, particularly the lower extension that has a whole system impact that yourself and supervisors melgar and chan have pointed out that it's really a whole network, so that whole area has to be coordinated with sloat, lincoln, and to brotherhood and ultimately 280. all of these efforts touch each other, and that's the kind of medium term planning that gets updated every few years, and we appreciate the input of yourself and the community to make sure that we're doing this efficiently and effectively, and that none of this is working in a vacuum. >> yeah, i agree -- this is julie kirchbaum

the lack of transparency on sfmta's part leaves me conflicted. we have a meeting scheduled with them, but that isn't until december 9, and furthermore, we don't want the new york deal to be held up as a positive model for a deal here that might exclude the medallion purchasers. these are the ones with the most at take and the most to lose. i'm sure you heard what happened in new york. they never -- when all else failed, they embarked on a hunger strike, but they never imagined it would take 15 days. these weren't young people, these were mostly older men in their 50s and 60s. please acknowledge that those most respected, the taxi drivers, should not be excluded. our model may not be the exact one in new york, but it must provide meaningful relief to those who bought medallions in san francisco. thank you. >> clerk: thank you. >> hello, supervisors. my name is jonathan mead. i'm not speaking on 31, 32, and 33, i'm speaking on something that is relevant to your business. it is #30rightnow, which as you know, is a program that would cap rent for ten

or i mean is the fire department going to give the same amount of time as the sfmta? or are they going to say you have to move in 30 days or your going to get a ticket, you know? it takes time to dismantle or move these things. they're not like, you know, you can just unscrew it with a screw gun. so i just want to make sure that the public knows -- or for small business, it's a shock that they have to move these things. they have ample time to do so before any real hard core enforcement comes down. >> absolutely. and to answer the question about process and procedure, yes, the departments, especially those who have enforcement jurisdiction and enforcement mandate, we meet regularly. so that the fire department, the sfmta, dpw, the mayor's office on disability, we're all aware of what the issues are. that every jurisdiction has with a particular site. our strategy moving forward is to communicate with sites that need to undertake some modifications in a coordinated fashion. so, you know, in the old days what might happen to a parklet sponsor, the fire department comes
