and any longer-term solution will need for reviewed by the planning department if this is upheld the sfmta will concrete our pilot in july will continue to operate without permits they would not be permitting a number of locations and stops we'll continue to address the solutions and not being able to address the pcos through this and >> thank you very much. supervisor campos. supervisor kim >> i have that on quick question question from the city attorney i only have the city code what are you relying on with a local jurisdiction that they will have discretion who to ticket and not. >> john gibner, deputy city attorney frankly supervisor i cannot by the code section i didn't ask the attorneys from the mta to attend this because the questions that we've voiced the mta open does not voices the board. >> i agree that will be great to get an understanding of what state code our relying on. >> any further questions we can come back to them after the. why don't we here from the patient members of the public that are waiting to speak in support of the program and the sfmta program i'd like to ask

not on our agenda but i thought i'd ask the question on the slide on enforcement committee sfmta has taken on their focus on the top 5 enforcement issues that we know cause pedestrian safety and their goals in terms of ticketing, etc. we've been seeing the results of the data i'm curious i'm not sure if the best person to answer this is but i'm curious what the sfmta role is around improvement and their goals. >> i'm happy to speak - with respect to the co- leadership of this combe subcommittee we've talked about marty the commander ali overseeing the implementation and the enter agency cooperation with respect to making sure that the commander lee is out in the field and overseeing the efforts to coordinate the efforts. >> i think it's important to sfmta to use its own resources to enforce the pedestrian safety. whether walking the bike lanes that impact the safety of our cyclists or to help to support really the limited resources that sfmta has >> yes. that's another avenue we're exploring we're working with our improvement group within the sfmta to look at how our pcos can aid the

the sfmta is your transportation agency. we have a number of assets we're responsible for, for owning and maintaining and stewarding to get the most value for the people of san francisco to make sure that the transportation system works well for them. one of our main assets is our vehicles as well as our facilities and we have an obligation as part of that stewardship of those assets to capture value that we can from them in order to help fund the transportation system. the contract before you today is an advertising contract that was competitively procured, approved by the mta board and is before you for approval. it's more or less very similar to the contract that we have currently in place that's expiring at the end of this fiscal year. it's our responsibility to make sure that we are capturing that value so that we can fund the services that were chartered, mandated to deliver. that's what this contract is here before. we're very grateful, as always, thorough analysis by the budget and legislative analyst and their recomm

again to the sfmta for making this possible and i look forward to having more improvements as we seek new transportation revenues in the fall this concludes my remarks. if there are no comments from colleagues we'll open this up for. and seeing none, we'll close public comment and move onto >> item 4 director's report an informational item. >> good morning kelly executive director my report is on your desk this month we begin are the recreational defeat the cap and interest trade at that heating up in the distribution of trade and cap resources that is different from the investigators proposal the investment in high speed rail where senator steven burger talks about other transportation. we'll be working hard with the counterpart to figure out how to best work with the santa fe san francisco needs across the state. transportation thirty discussions are continuing this month we've been doing outreach with sfmta to get the input from organizations the capital committee will look at the proposals at the may fifth meeting after which the board will continue the measures for the fall ballo

the sfmta board of directors approved the 18 month pilot plan an january 21st an appeal was filed on february 14th accounting. the planning department has prepared a written response. p on that day the appellants filed a written brief that passes the code submittal so a second request was insinuated. my presentation is going to summarize our responses primarily the second request. the issue for a categorical not to deny the appeal or to over turn the departments decision and return the project to the planning department. p the issue is not about the merits of pilot program itself. a little bit about existing conditions and the proposed project today, there 3 hundred shuttle buses and mta estimates 25 thousand muni ridership. and intercity riders are 80 percent of the total and regional are 20 percent they're using white zones and currently they're not permitted to us the bus zones. the pilot program is to explore the shared use of muni stops not faxing others stops. the pilot program will operate as follows: sfmta will solicit accident applications and establish operational requireme

i am going to ask about the by an implicit it's come up so the sfmta is moving forward with the pilot to gather information that understands the scope of the project so the 18 most allowing us to collect date it's not going to impact our by an because we don't believe it will impact the current environmental companies how do we know what those are what's united states baseline how do we know that >> we obviously have a lot of, you know, a lot of statements of the problem as i understand it and then knows basic oiktsz those shelters are, in fact, existing as well as the background work insinuated by sfmta but the key thing nothing about the project that you can it would demonstrately increase the number of shuttles open the street or the locations at which the shilts are picking up there's nothing about the prong that would change at the physical nature of what is happening around shuttles because of what mta is trying to do is say, you know, let's define what those are identify the new shared minnesota stops. now, of course, the shuttles could keep using the stop locations that are no

[speaker not understood] if it fails, muni will have to cut service, not decrease it. cuts are coming this fall if this passes. why should voters vote to be taxed even more when sfmta wastes revenue that helps nobody and takes us back to forgotten days. you are essentially going to have goose free parking instead of muni for kids. you could have used this money to support people with disabilities who clearly need it. second, it violates all competition [speaker not understood] reduce congestion and increase pedestrian safety. sunday meters will pass in collaboration with many stakeholders including the chamber of commerce. it is a betrayal revoked but the same process is applied when passed. the citation rate institutes starting price of zero. improved signage, and please make it conditional on these new funding sources. lastly, you are nobo
