i have two questions for director tumlin related to vaccinations. you said they will be fully vaccinated, i just want to see what that means. it's thrown out quite a bit. i recall waiting three weeks for that second shot and it was two weeks after the second shot. is that possible? >> we are running out of time on pfizer but the johnson and johnson vaccine which is the one shot will still be available for a while longer but yes, one of the reasons why we are doing detailed contingency planning is because employees are in fact running out of time to be fully vaccinated by november 1 which isa requirement . >> so two weeks afterjohnson and johnson . that would be the most. >> thank you for that and obviously director hinze's help around retention. a second question i had was regarding the slow streets and thanks for the all interest and success they had. one area of concern i recall earlier in the process i recall one of the slow streets was removed from board consideration possibly due to concerns around fire department access. you mentioned response

so, just to backtrack a little bit, director tumlin. can you clarify for us, given the possibility of us facing it seems like by my count maybe a little over 100 operators. are we actually still on track to increase 10% service? >> so it's -- depending upon what the numbers end up being in november, it will potentially delay our 85% service until later in the winter. what that delay will be will depend upon how many operators we, in fact, lose. and that how quickly we can accelerate hiring and training. >> ok. so, fine. i guess november 1 that we already know now that there are people who have not yet responded or obtained a vaccine. so, at a minimum, it sounds like we have 48 operators that have not responded so maybe they have gotten a vaccine on their own and just responded. but there's at least 707 that we're losing it sounds like? >> no. those folks can still, if they -- if they gets vaccinated at any time, we can bring them back. >> reinstate them. got it. ok. great. and then if you could just remind us, i believe at our last serv

my name is jeffery tumlin and i'm the executive director to have the san francisco municipal transportation agency. before we begin, it's also important to acknowledge where we've come from. the geary corridor was muni's first transit line. the b. geary electric streetcar ran down here in 1912 and has long been one of the highest ridership service transit lines in north america. this neighborhood has also long been one of the most and interesting neighborhoods anywhere in the world and home to very strong populations of japanese and african americans. this is also a place where japanese americans were expelled from, were sent forcibly to internment camps during world war ii. also the area where post war era the redevelopment agency demolished of blocks displacing thousands of residents and businesses in the name of urban renewal. geary street used to be one lane in each direction lined with businesses owned by japanese and african americans and all of that was destroyed to make way for the eight-lane geary expressway. and so though we're so proud of this project, we also must acknowledge th

there seems to be a lot of confusion and director tumlin spoke to it directly. want to make sure everybody is clear. when we say winter, when will the service changes go into effect and how long is this sort of service regime going to be in place before future potential changes to the 100% and beyond until that might come online? so we all know. three months? five months, six months? what are we talking about here? >> julie? >> yeah, so we are aiming to have these changes implemented in february. i am cautiously optimistic that if we hit all of our other time lines we'll make that. and these changes would, i think, be in place through the budget dialogue that you all are going to have, you know, beginning soon and really wrapping up in april. and that i think will give us final guidance on where we go next. we will, you know, continue to focus on the hiring process that will enable us to look at that question. >> okay. so if i'm hearing correctly, this is a phased, stage occurrence of recovery and reopening. it sound like this is a very dynamic period. we're tal

again, on the question of conflict of direct, does director tumlin have an conflict of interest? this is the firm he used to work for and i don't know if he retains shares or ownership interest in the firm and i don't know how long he has to not be involved in contracting with the firm and if he does have connection, did he not not participate and does this need to get delegated to the director or the designee and also wondering, where is hayden mill sner maybe he is back in school. anyway. those are my comments on item 13. >> i would wager mr. miller is riding transit around the bay area. that would be my guess. any other public comment on item 13? >> it is really just about the money and the folly of all this that we have a process that precedes to get ready for an e.i.r. and all i know is that it just sounds like a lot of oh my god, what are we doing here? on this agenda, there are very few items and a quarter billion dollars. how much has been spent on bike lanes? i don't know. but it's not any sizable fraction of that and i think if we're trying to change how we move everyth
