planning and mayor's office have seen strong interest in the public workshops. i appreciate the folks who came out on a sunny saturday a few weeks ago in the mission a few days after that to participate in these workshops to discuss what we want our transportation system to look like in the next 30 to 40 years. the events were offered in english ago well as translation available and prior november workshops conducted these types of events in spanish, chinese and filipino aimed at southeast neighborhoods. staff engaged in a host of q&a and group activities to generate project concepts on the transit side and streets and freeway side. that work is moving along. we anticipate bringing that back in the next month or two. the input that we gathered, of course, will feed into our county wide plan update which will continue in the fall and into next year as part of connect sf. our policy and programming staff have been busy conducting outreach on the prop d, last year's prop d. of course, the streets and safe streets portion of that funding will come to this body for p

, "give us three things you learned at this workshop.ed, right me too at the bottom of the page if you're a survivor and if you want help." and so we collected those papers and went back to the hotel room, and when i dumped them out and began to read one after another after another after another, it was shocking how many, really, the majority of the room had an experience with sexual violence. and it's something that i had seen over and over again. but, you know, seeing it in writing, in paper wasjust... ..it was definitely shocking. do you think it would be pretty much the same experience today? absolutely. so, in that sense, we're going to talk a lot what me too has achieved, but it hasn't changed that much on that sort of systemic structural level. no, but you also — we're dealing with something that is centuries old. we're dealing with an epidemic that has been affecting people around the world since the beginning... i mean, is biblical, right. and so there's no way that a hashtag going viral two years ago is going to dismantle struc

i want to thank you for the workshop, and particularly for the market street opening. i was limited how much time i had at the microphone, so i didn't thank staff adequately, but i want to reiterate thanks to director reskin, to director mcguire, and director tomlin for all they did to make it happen. victoria weiss, and all of the people on the staff. there were so many people who briefed me throughout the entire process, and who worked hard to make it happen, and they had appropriately big grins on that beautiful wednesday afternoon. i have certainly heard, anecdotally, from our operators, how much better things are going on the street. i think it would be useful if we were able to quantify that or get some sort of survey response simply so we can address that and let the public know that the effect that we promised is real. and the second thing, i don't see director toran. cabs are allowed on market street. i have seen them moving efficiently up and down market street. so with that, we will move on to item number seven. >> item seven is the directors' report. >> dir
