one of the findings of the report, the regulatory fees, tnc like uber and lyft pay to the commissions was a subject of an action proposing the rate on the state agenda a week later. uber and lyft wanted fees reduced even though there was no data to justify the decrease. the san francisco tna and i wrote opposition letters why we believe it is another give-away to companies unwilling to work with local governments. despite the ta, los angeles's department of transportation, all giving strong testimony at the february puc meeting, the state puc acted to lower them from 0.33 to 0.25%. while we managed to prevent them from reducing them lower to the original staff recommendation 0.2%, we remain disappointed and determined to pursue the right sizing of fees and enforcement given the congestion and public safety conflicts we see on the streets. if the cupc is unable to perform the regulatory sector, we urge them to give it to locals like san francisco who will. the message is clear, let us manage our public streets for the public good. in a related development, i was pleased to see the city

you can't speak to this because there's legislation potentially being introduced today related to tnc's. do you know if the intent was to earmark the funds to go to this program? >> so i didn't hear supervisor peskin's spoke to this, i believe, last week at the ta commission, and i didn't hear his remarks. my understanding is that when he spoke about it, that he was speaking to it as a general tax, so not a special tax that would be dedicated to transportation. my understanding is that the introduction is going to be happening today. might be have already happened or happening as we speak, so we should be more soon. >> great. well maybe it would be dedicated to this. >> i would support that. >> thank you, director borden. director ramos? >> thank you. thank you so much, director reiskin for this hard work, and miss bode, i deeply appreciate all of the heavy lifting that you all are doing to make this all shake out, and it's -- it's something i'm very grateful for. i'll be eager to keep talking about it and figuring out what direction we should go in. i'm going to agree with everything t

just last month, one of my interns was hid by a tnc driver while crossing a street nearby. fortunately, she wasn't injured too badly, and she's okay now. however, already this year, three people have been killed, and those families will continue to live with their grief. every one of these fatalities and injuries are preventible. although we have made progress in many things, the enforcement as we continue to work to pass hopefully soon automated speed enforcement at the state level. and also, education, we've made some headways, we must do more. we have the opportunity to work in collaboration with the vision zero task force to further strengthen our committee. i support the extension of the committee, and i look forward to working with my colleagues on some of these policies and recommendations to move us closer to our vision zero goals. >> thank you, commissioner yee. is that a motion? >> supervisor yee: it is a motion. >> supervisor peskin: is there a second for that motion? seconded by commissioner ronen. colleagues, is there any public comment on this item? seeing non

congestion is the fact that we make most of our non-commute trips, even in san francisco, by automobile or tnc, so that's a myth. that this will somehow improve transportation. san francisco is in danger of becoming a [bell ringing]. >> i have a letter signed by seven other organizations, affordable housing, tenant rights organizations opposing sb 827 and urging passing of the resolution. i want to address two issues. there has been testimony about how problematic this legislation is. two things i want to add. one to be clear, this legislation undermines the city's affordable housing programs. as planning department has indicated. because of the density bonus provision which is mandated in here, we're going to have 13% inclusionary. it undermines home sf which requires 30% affordable housing, and we want our san francisco affordable housing programs protected. this legislation undermines it. thank you. >> hi, i'm jeff hodges, i live over in the mission. i'm one of the action numbers. i support sb 827 and oppose the resolution. i've lost count of the friends who have fled the housing cost. 827

it's bad policy, if we want to see the state take over transportation network companies, the tncs, how. we know best how to govern our own planning process. 827 will severely limit our ability for planning processes. and frankly, there are other ways we can expand housing. we're in a crisis, but this is bad policy, this is bad civics and this is bad democracy. and frankly, i'm a little bit disappointed in scott wiener pushing this through. it does have the appearance of some balances, but when you look, you can see that this is not going solve [bell ringing] good afternoon, i'm peter, speaking as individual. i am a long time resident of san francisco and strongly oppose senate bill 827 and 828. i want to thank the supervisors and supervisor peskin in particular for bringing this opposition forward. basically, i can say that i agree with pretty much everything that has been said by the supervisor and by the public. it cuts self-determination. please go ahead and stop scott wiener's war on san francisco. thank you. >> thank you, i'm going to call up more names. renee, lori, dennis, nancy

four our public transit system to compete with automobiles and tncs and also appropriately serve our growing population we need to be increasing service not just holding the line so we strongly encourage the use of funds to not only support the operating budget but to further expand neighborhood service, evening service and in particular late night service which is unacceptably sparse. >> we are supportive of the long overdo day pass but we would like to see it as a function. and we would like to see the differential decrease thousand we prefer it not exist at all. and lastly its really encouraging to see that they are considering fare increases that don't follow the indexing policy in an effort to encourage transit use but if you do move forward with increasing the cash differential up to $3 we request that you extend the 90 minute transfer to two hours which is common among other major transit agencies including new york, washington, dc, portland and boston. thank you for your time. >> the chair: thank you. mr. fonseca. please. >> the clerk: followed by carlo mcmerdo. >> good after

can't put more money in the system we want to get control of the sheets from the shuttles and the tncs we have to figure out how we do those projects. there's not one community. you will do red lanes that's going to like it. that being said, i think to move forward with equity, we're going to have to all figure out and i know director ruskin will figure how how we do it in the beginning so we don't have a push back going forward. >> thank you, mr. allen. >> robert winier followed by ace and peter strauss. >> welcome back. good afternoon. >> herbert winier. i have two concerns. one is on theel terville line. i appreciate it will be increased during the rush hour. that's all to the good. but i really haven't seen any improvement on the line. i have to walk a long distance to the bus stop to get buses that haven't been added to the system. and it's a very long system. that extends from downtown to the zoo. that is a very long route and it's deserves a lot of coaches for that. now, the people have paid dearly for the project. it's really hasn't -- it's made life miserable for a lot of peop

. >> right and obviously -- we certainly think that tnc has something to do with it. >> it's had a hit on the parking garages. absolutely. those were my only comments and questions. any more questions, feedback? again, we will have this to us, the budget time line, this will come back to us again. >> director torres: can you share if you can, what the response was from the board of supervisors that you visited with? >> i've only gotten to two or three of them so far. the folks that i've talked to have generally liked it. again, what they're focussing on is the fare recommendations because those are the tangible recommendations and so far, it's a positive response to those. >> chairman brinkman: thank you very much. if i have no other questions or comments, this was a discussion item only, so we'll go to public comment. >> chair, we don't have anybody who has turned in a speaker card and i don't see anybody. >> chairman brinkman: if no one has any public comment, i will close public comment and we'll move on. >> item 12, presentation and discussion regarding private transit vehicle rout

. >> a lot of discussion about the data that you want to get into private companies like tncs and the other types of capacity. there's a tremendous amount of data that you have in all your cities, states, governments, the round about, as we connect vehicles in the round abouts. i drove home from ashville last weekend not great smokies, and the reality is that that local climate area is something you'll have to inform these avs about. they cannot see what they cannot see. when they move into a fog environment or an environment like that, you need to be able to share that data with them. we have to start talking about what data cities and states can provide to the av community so that that's a proactive approach. then maybe you'll get some data from the avs. >> those little roundy things are called roundabouts. >> i'll say i think -- eliminating every signalized intersection in the city. finally got d.o.t. to show up and make this a priority. so i will say to help, his college roommate was the former governor of the state -- there's 100% eligibility for roundabouts. i think the thing th
