that report was submitted this morning to the traffic co.. under the current conditions, that report would be forwarded to sacramento and we would get the report and data transmitted to us in approximately one year. what we are working on his to get real-time reporting. we have been meeting with the mta the last few weeks. our statistician -- trying to move our statistician over to the mta so that reports can go right into the crossroads system immediately so that we can be able to collect the data. we will also be able to share the data. if there were any questions about any environmental issues, like, somebody asked if there was a senior center nearby. the could go back and get that data right now. our investigators are actively working that case. but if it comes to us in one year later and that question is asked, it is very difficult with everything that has changed. we are looking to have that real time data collection, and every time we make a report, that it be entered immediately that everybody can look at it within 28 hours to 48 hours

and during the year, the traffic co. of the police department started coming out a regular basis. it was my goal to see the pedestrian safety advisory committee be the clearing house for pedestrian issues in the city, and to bring up the level of pedestrian issues. this has happened in the last year when the hearing in district 6. i think they need to be raised and need to have the same funding and concern as any other mode of transportation. and asking for your support that i continue on the pedestrian safety advisory committee. if there are any questions, i would be happy to answer them. supervisor kim: i have a question. first of all, thank you for your service on the committee. this is one of my priority issues for district 6. as a representative for a senior disabled organizations, any talk a little bit about how you plan to earn a broader community? >> i have not gone to as many meetings because i have had other commitments. i could go back to the visibility council, go to senior action, i am a member of all of those organizations. i will make time to go to those organizatio

in that timeframe, different corridors throughout the city, the traffic co. wrote over 1700 citations. supervisor kim: how do you decide where to do these stings, target enforcement? >> we look at hot spots, we get complaints from the neighborhoods. like the people today, they say this area is very dangerous for us crossing. whether it is chinatown, the richmond, sunset, we choose based on a lot of complaints. supervisor kim: so you base and off of the complaints that are called in. >> absolutely. supervisor kim: what about freeway ramps? do we do sting's there? >> to date, no. supervisor kim: is that something you would pursue? >> i am sure we could open ourselves up to that. supervisor kim: how many patrol cars are dedicated to enforcing traffic laws at the southern station every day? >> i could not answer that. supervisor kim: with the captain know? >> southern station has two motorcycle officers dedicated to it. i cannot speak to any traffic cars. supervisor kim: what is the average number of speeding tickets sfpd gives every month? >> we would have to get

the executive park. thank you. hot >> thank you. supervisor cohen: all right, fran martin. >> as co-chair of the visitation project, i am deeply concerned about the impact these developments will have on trafficthe adjacent to existing communities and the lack of adequate on site open space. i am also a member in the redevelopment area and a board member o f -- of sf parks. i am not speaking for those, but i wanted you to know that i know about them. these are read several intersections, including -- there are several intersections, including highway 101. the schlage lock and lenar development. consequently, there is a disparate amount of styles. the open space company is sadly lacking for 1600 units of housing. these facilities are not that easily accessible, and there needs to be more adequate on site open space. i strongly urge that there be a robust planning department review process informed by community participation as we go forward. given the highly significant situation, there needs to be particular attention paid to design issues. not at the expense of the surrounding neighborhood and future residents who will live there. this could make a healthy and beautiful community. supervisor
