we're honored to be joined by her grandson, tomlin. where are you, tomlin? [applause] thank you.aturday, march 25, 1911. frances sat down for afternoon tea at her home with a close friend from new york city. slid they hear the sound of a distant screams and sirens, a building was in flames. her instinct was to run to the scene. as she approached the fire and smoke, she recognized the triangle shirt factory. a company that employed hundreds of workers, mostly immigrants and women who worked long hours, crammed into tight quarters. where managers locked them inside to make clothing. in an instant, those workers were trapped in a brutal blaze, no safe exit. some workers forced to climb out the windows holding on for dear life until their fingers gave out. others just jumped. prayed and jumped. total of 150 lives were lost that day. it was the deadliest industrial disaster in american history. frances was devastated. that fire ignited a passion in her. strengthened her resolve to fight even harder for working americans and working families. after decades of service she became a fierc

good afternoon, director tomlin. i'm ashley hong, a planner and livable streets and the project manager for the beach street quick build project. i'm happy to be here today to seek your approval of this project that is in the heart of the fisherman's wharf district and is home to so many iconic pieces of san francisco. over the past year and a half, we have worked closely with the community to design a project that aligns with community priorities. we want to promote fisherman's wharf vitality, address key pedestrian and bicycle safety concerns, connect major landmarks by filling in gaps in the bicycle and pedestrian network, and provide opportunities for placemaking and activation. there are a few different reasons we are proposing this project. the first is to close a critical gap in the very popular and scenic active transportation route along the bay in san francisco. currently, people can walk or roll all the way from the golden gate bridge to the ferry building, hitting major destinations all along the way and

thank you, director tomlin. directors, are there any clarifying questions about the report? director heminger. sorry. thank you madam chair. jeff, in your report on the muni funding working group, you mentioned bart as well and what they're doing. and i think that's appropriate because if we end up saving muni and losing bart that's not a good outcome. so one thing that i'm thinking about in relation to your report is whether or not it would make sense to have a joint board meeting between mta and bart. our fates are tied together. the infrastructure, a lot of the physical infrastructure is one thing as far as the public is concerned, and again, i think we need to be joining forces instead of meeting on our own separately. now, i know we've got 27 transit agencies, so that that would you would need to get a bigger room for that. but it seems to me that limiting it to an mta and to bart, given how close they are together, as i indicated previously, madam chair, i would like you to consider that with jeff. whether that could make sense and whether we could make the schedules w
