This month, i want to start by congratulating director of our Capital Projects. His project and partners at the Treasure Island development authority. Cal trans, the Bay Area Toll Authority and the United States coast guard for the south gate road realignment project held earlier this month. This project will provide a stable connection for bicyclists and motorists connecting on and off on it i80 on the san open bay bridge. This is open to visitors and neighbors on the island which is growing with several housing projects under way. Next id like to convey our Transportation Authority support to the operator who was viciously attacked by a passenger after asking three passengers to wear face coverings. This may have been a hate crime as evidenced by the passenger accusing the driver of asian descent of having corona virus. Ive already made inquiries to the sfpd and District Attorneys Office and will work with them to ensure a thorough investigation and followup. No arrests have been made yet. The board stands with all of our drivers and all of our front line workers during this pandemic. We will absolutely not tolerate hate or abuse as a sacrifice to serve our city. I hope we find those who perpetrated these horrible events and bring them to justice. Finally id like to elaborate on an item that weve been discussing here since october of 2019. This obviously is going to be the subject of discussion today, later today the board of sawp supervisors, thats the decision we made last tuesday to place a sales tax on this moves ballot together with santa clara coun county. I dont want to put words in commissioners mouth but i think we both remain hopeful that representatives will support us in advancing the voter consideration and if passed sets up an immediate and long term set of funds with a near term discussion of cal tran governance support. These are key to support that San Francisco and santa clara which together provide 80 of anticipated tax proceeds have an equal say at the table which is critical given the progressive nature of the tax and the many important decisions before us particularly as they relate to equity. I want it reiterate that we believe cal tran is a fe phenomenally criticalits never a good time to deal with governance but we cant keep kicking the can down the tracks. Now is a time for all of the partner counties and create an equity, accountable, organization. Thank you. That kn colludes m concludes my. Any Public Comments on the chairs report . checking Public Comments. I see nobody on line. Public Comment is closed and well go to executive directors report. great. Thank you, chair. Good morning commissioners. This morning ill note quickly that we want to provide a more full update on the events in washington d c on the senate and administration taking up the next phase of covid 19 relief. Were still trying to track down information, this may include funds for transit in the house heros act which does provide for transit relief funds. Thats an important update well be bringing to you in the next month. The state level, Assembly Members obtain together a joint proposal stimulus plan to help support those most imfacte impay covid 19. A hundred thousand dollars through a new tax program and existing Revenue Streams and not rearaise taxes. Accelerate sb1, the gas tax, and state cap and trade funds. Both of which funds transportation, capital, and maintenance, and some programs. Clean vehicle programs sm we wilprograms. We will continue toe about the proposal and work with our agencies at San Francisco. San franciscos projects received one hundred thirty Million Dollars for Affordable Housing and ri infrastructure grants. The eighty million from the california strategic growth sowncouncils and sustainable grt program. 20 million was provided to the Fourth Street program. Affordable housing and Community Projects are comment to relieve Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions and support Affordable Housing. On the infill infrastructure grant side received three grants. Three and a half million. Hope sf received seven point seven million. Honey vil six and a half mill. A fourth project our own Treasure Island Development Project for the pedestrian and bike path improvement. Congratulation to all the recipients. Together across all of these projects San Francisco received 17 percent of the state wise available funds. I start of a new program that is a Regional News based program initiated in mid july. Marked the start of an 18 month project that is a pilot to demonstrate the news based fare program for low income residents. Households with incomes no more than two times the Poverty Level a discount on the fare. Plan pa bay area has an update t the federal level. Inclusion of the draft blue print of that plan. The commission which commissioner ronan sits, thank you for your representation there. Approved draft projects. All of our priorities did make it in to be recommended for the plan. It has not yet been adopted, that will happen next year. This is a significant mile stone to ensure certain projects are in at this point and will be worked on over the coming year for valuation and environmental review. Downtown extension project was placed in the first half of the plan period which positions it well for the endeavor to meet the six party mou project party team. This will help the project be scet active for the coming years. Next ill turn to it the regional measure three bridge toll update. As you know, its been in litigation but it has cleared a legal hurdle on june 29th the state appeal confirmed findings for the bridge toll increase. This is the progrm tha program s approved in 2018 2018. The plaintive is stillwell be sure to be ready to go should that be resolved soon. Youll recall that board approved case funds for the sf environment ride home environment. I wanted to pre vie provide a qk update here. Following the initial period which prioritized trips home in the late evening hours. Capacity for the program, sf environment staff decided they are able to expand eligibility to workers commuting home as well. The eligibility here will also be accompanied by a multi lingual Marketing Campaign to communities with concern for essential workers who commute into San Francisco. Many of these applications were received in an initial spike of interest. Theres hope that we canlast summer, the board allocated prep k funds that is lower cost reversible traffic controls such as signage to implement safety improvements faster than traditional improvements. The california Street Project between 18th. Additional segments such as the third street bridge with protected bike lanes. A two way protected bike way. Thank you sfta for your hard work. We look forward to tipping to support you there. Turning now to bart. Theres a lot of updates this month. Im going to keep going. The construction project is also under way. The street station including the Construction Public station rest rooms. A Million Dollars in prop k funds was contributed to this comprehensive station safety project. Improve circulation on the station. In addition to the rest rooms the ticket vending machines. Bart anticipates the project will be completed in 2021. The elevator attendant initiative is taking a bit of a new configuration. Bart and sfmta update the attendant services at the service stations. Two poinlt six million in lifeline funds for civic center funs back in april. Due to the impacts of covid 19 were work withing stafing witho maintain the program across the four stations by showing a financial contributions a across all four stations. Providing necessary match for lifeline. Given that cost is shietl slighy lower than anticipated first year cost and evening hours due to Covid Service changes, this is working out well. Bart is veryturpinturning to te local issues on my report. The Community District Transportation Plan is stake holder and community review. Were partnering here. Theres a plan in addition to the one just approved and we discussed, this is the next phase plansome of the solutions for the square itself will compliment the rebuild of the park thats funded as well from the recovery bond. Circulation as well as some changes to parking and other facilities. We anticipate bringing that to the community and out reach meeting here in august. A final report to you all in the board in september. District four, the study there is moving along. The survey is coming out for members of the public to tell us more been b their experience in choosing transit, walking, and biking. What vehicle trips they think could be approved with vehicle options. At the request of commissioner mar, weve been exploring ways of walking and biking with the highest ride share rates in the city. Out reach began at the end of may with a presentation by staff. Followup to that, we are launching Online Survey to get feedback from more residents in district four. Please visit our website for more information or to take the survey. Finally, on the administration side, im pleased to report that the may sales tax res ar receips higher year on here. This is surprising given the close of march. Rementing a significant increafe freely in may. Well continue to monitor the situation and ki and incorporate information. With that i conclude my report. Thank you ssment. thank you i did want to followup on one thing and thank you director chang for really comprehensive updates. You referenced some of theyour update on the federal action and were watching closely to see what kind of federal money comes in in addition to what already came in. I wanted to ask you about those funds and other federal funds and how were deciding what is alkayed foallocated for capitald what is for operating. Mta is using the funds to back fill the operating budget, entirely understandable especially with all the immediate losses with covid 19. I hope i have this correct and am looking to you to see if my understanding is correct, i believe that beyond just the cares act money or any further funds that are authorized that we are freer right now to use Federal Capital funds to cover operating expenses during a state of emergency. Obviously my consti constituentd many around the city are concerned around the loss of bus lines around the city. Were eager for solution it bring these lines back as soon as possible. We hear regularly and understandable about the lack of revenue to do this. Im curious if there are other federal funds other than the cares act money to come in. That are for Capital Projects that some portion of those funds can be used on operating expenses or not. If so, how are we making decisions around whether to allocate for Capital Projects or expanded operations. yes. Thank you so much for the question. Its a very good question. Indeed the sta provides each transit operator on an annual basis funds for capital. This has been going on forever. Each operator gets that funding based on mileage sm thos. Those funds are only to be used for capital. However in march due to the stress and strain due to the pandemic. There was permission for operators and permission it use the capital monies for operations. Million now not many of them had done so because of this covid 19 cares act funds and many are doing so now. Going forward many of them do see after this calendar year and perhaps into early next, if there are no further federal relief funs say from the heros act, they really would be faced with very desire situations to either use those capital formula funds or perhaps face further service reductions. Now youre starting to see the bart board this past week approved a budget that maintained some Service Levels but did take some of their expansion Vehicle Projects that had been funded from these formula grant money it close their budget. Youre starting to see agencies look to that source which is under their control. These decisions are happening at each individual transit agencies management and board and their discussions about the budget and priorities. Its a tougher decision to make with trade off because they may not have as much expansion money to trade off. Whether that trade off is with capital maintenance. Certainly they wouldnt want to dip into safety projects. Cal train for example, can do that. Bart has already i believe begun to do that in a limited way in using their expansion capital vehicle funds. how that decision is made, i think when it gets to the maybe hood level this impack whrz we caimpactswhether we canr bus line or not. There are trade offs here and there are opportunities to use some of the capital formula funs in this way. I look forward to continuing that conversation with you and the mta. commissioner also raised this concern. We can invite him back anytime when appropriate to talk about how they will be approaching these decisions. thank you. Seeing no other questions for direct ydirector chang. there is Public Comment. welcome caller. Your two minutes begins now. thank you chair, and members. My pronouns are she and her. Regarding this report very informative and helpful. Ill have to replay it. Briefly the big elephant in the room in a big way is clipper start. We have to get behind this program. The chance to say 50 per ride is going to be very helpful for people who dont travel as frequently. is there a motion to move the consent april jen agenda. motion. second. roll call, please. good morning, commissioners. Can everyone hear me . yes. Bank Accounts total to one hundred twenty five million. The investments are in compliance with the california government code and investment adoption policy. In terms of our debt expenditures, you may recall we have a sales tax revenue bond. Its been on our books for the last two years. We spent one hundred eighty eight poi poin point two millio. Central sub way and new and upgraded signals among projects. Bond proceedings are to be spent over the next three months. With that im happy to take any questions on this information item. thank you for that report. Are there any questions from members. Seeing none. Is there any Public Comment . yes, chair. There is Public Comment. first speaker, please. welcome caller, injure twoo minutes begin now. okay. I wanted to speak on item six. The intersection study. sorry that wasthat as on our last agenda for Public Comment on july 14th. That was on todays Consent Agenda and was not available for Public Comment. My apologies. i did do a written submission. I hope you all take a look at it. Thank you. thank you. Is that alvin. yes, it is. yes. I saw your written comment. thank you. this tax is one and a half percent on shared rides provided by tm c shared rides. Initially revenues were estimated at thirty million annually. Thats looking different this year and ill provide an update on that in a moment. The first is quick build. This provides support for the Rapid Response we know is needed. Safety zone, bike lanes, and so on. We have a safe streets category. This is intenned fo intended fog term requirements. This is an open call for projects. Were also recommending a signals category and maintenance. Were also developing prioritization criteria as part of the Program Guidelines sm just tguidelines. Just to highli, communities of concern have Proven Community engagement and support. Limited other funding option optionsprioritizing what funding we have for quick build projects for fiscal year 2021 and 2022 and we only allocate what revenues we have in hand at that time. For this fall were expecting to have revenues from january through june in hand and so that would allow us to allocate just under 2 million for quick build projects. Its porp important to provide a steady stream of funding. Tax revenues with programs, prop k funning in order to meet that need. If we see a significant increase in revenue we may come back to the board to Fund Additional projects. What youll see this fall for quick build youll i see what mt is is considering in their list. Some include bike lanes and lighting and other changes. Were seeing feedback on parts of the Program Guidelines and quick builds. Well be back in the fall seeking adoption of the guidelines an allocating the first set of funding. With that im happy to answer any questions. thank you miss lion ses ane community out reach that you did. Are there any questions from members . I dont see any. I do want to not only thank staff but my staff for their work in getting the tm c tax on the ballot. Most importantly i want to thank my colleagues any other calls from public . Public comment is closed. This was an information item. thank you commissioners. Let me share my screen. Hopefully you all can see my screen. not yet. not yet. Do we want to go to plan b . Here we go. Try this. Better . Okay. Thank you all. Thank you for the opportunity. Im here to tell you today about the 15 third bus study which was part of our Planning Project series. Its meant to be a short Technical Evaluation of returning the 15 third street bus to service. The reasons for this project really emerge from Prior Community feedback that has noted challenges with the t third service, including delays, train switching, the slow implementation tied to the subway and other factors. The purpose of this was really to look at how can we improve access from bay viewpoints in particular but where the third operates now to the 15 service. We focused this survey entirely on the analysis of which before the pandemic began, reflecting what the service was prior to the pandemic, well talk a little about what mpa is doing with this information at the end. Theres quite a bit of scheduled delays not to mention actual performances and lower head ways on the t third or there were prepandemic. Theres also been a lot of changes within the corridor and tremendous number of changes anticipated to come in the future with major developments along the eastern water front. We do want to take a quick look as we start out the study at when people travel. We know thats an issue thats been raised. There is in fact reasonably typical travel patterns. Mid day travel to and from downtown. When we took a look at this, there were four key elements of the corridor that we wanted to look at. Part of it is the downtown element. We looked at this primarily as an express service, compliment the t as a service traveling on the new 15 and bay view and connection to visitation of the valley. Two options were evaluated for this study. Both of them circulate on third and Fourth Street potentially downtown. Both provide the express service on mission bay and the dog patch. The first of which is directly paralleling what the t provides today. The second of which provides a loop through hunters point. These are two items that had emerged from prior planning studies we wanted to evaluate. We used head ways that are approximately equivalent to the type of express services that were provided by muni, the ax and bx which ran more frequently. We looked at the bulk of folks who traveled during that time of day just to cover our bye bases. Travel to downtown, we were looking at transit access type metrics. Who the total ridership is and net ripership and were in the midst of looking at the Cost Effectiveness of the service. Just quickly we did look at speeds. We looked at total travel time which is consistent with what we saw on prior 15 services. This is resolute route for up hunters point. From a modeling perspective stnl ridership on these lines. Seven thousand riders on each andwhich is a fairly substantial number of riders. We did compare that as i say to net riders and note that there is a big chunk at the bottom of the chart. About two thousand riders on the route that would travel along third street. When you combine both of the two routes together theres 4800. Theres the bay view. The alignment that aligned significantly with that. This is a more detailed look at the specific numbers that we can return to if there are questions. We do see ridership throughout the day as well. Thats some useful information for mta as they think about what to do with this in terms of implementation. We also did a comparison to the details of the other express bus services that operated today. These types of services you can see the dark green bars show the two services. Thewhat were calling the 15ax which is the third street express. And 15bx have similar ridership. This is peak riders. Just those traveling during the peak period and peak direction which is typically how the express bus system operates. Where do we go from here. We have to complete our Cost Effective analysis and writeup a final report which well be bringing back to the board for final adoption. I also want to report and wre do have support from mta if you have questions about this about potential short term implementation as part of the return of the metro rail system in august. This is planned for august. Given all the changes being made with that return theres an interest in implementing a 15 express service to compliment that work. Mta is working with stake holders to define potential route options for what that express service would look like going out to the public as a set of options and review and modify that as needed. This is something that mta has been looking at for a while. Were aligning well in being able to present to them findings that look promising. They can take that and do a more robust process and take it for further evaluation. With that ill take any questions. commissioner walton. thank you so much. I just wanted to state, colleagues you know at the bus stop service to make room for a supposedly more rapid and more efficient t third rail line, we have endured issues of delay. Our office called for this Feasibility Study on bringing back the 15 third bus to enhance service in the third street corridor and eliminate some of the delays and inwwe inequitiest exist with the t. Thank mta for listening to feedback and proposing opportunities to get the 15 back down to third street very soon. Thank you for the presentation. I just wanted to followup with some brief comments. thank you. Any other comments from commissioners . Seeing none, why dont we open this up to Public Comment. okay. Chair. Two questions remaining. welcome caller. Your two minutes begins now. Go ahead, caller. Hello, caller . Go ahead. okay. Well move to the next caller. Good morning caller, your two minutes begins now. hi. Steven miller calling in. I have some concerns about this project. Im in support for the express bus. I would encourage you guys to look into improving the t line whether that means getting it out of mixed traffic along some portions of third street, timing the signals better, running the trains more frequently, whatever that looks like, i think that is the better alternative here rather than bringing back the bus that is going to be stuck in the same traffic and signals. The bus is very dangerous because they are close to side wiping people or taking up both lanes. I have a lot of concerns with this. thank you. Are this any other members of the public that would like to testify on this item . there are no more callers. Public Comment is closed. This too was an information item. item 13, this is an information item. good morning, commissioners. San francisco public works. Im the better market Street Project manager. Im joined b by bret. As you know as part of our one bay area Grant Funding we were asked to provide quarterly updates. This quarters update although the last time we presented was in december. We have several updates that we wanted to share with you today. Weve made the most progress in our environmental clearance at the federal level, were getting clearance. It closed on july 14th. We held a public hearing in june to collect comment from the public. We received comments around ten to twelve comments from the public which were now addressing and responding to. Our schedule is to have final approval by august 24th. This is a quick diagram of the nepa process. The draft document with the environmental assessment. We have section 106 for historic preservation. Park land and historic site. Were currently in this middle level where were working with comments, a memorandum of agreement. Were drafting our final 4s evaluation. Our target for final signature from cal trans is august 24th. This is low allows us to allocae our federal funds build fund dollars by the end of august. Our schedule has changed a little bit as a result of covid 19. Primarily advertising the first phase of construction between fifth to eighth street to 2021. Our design is continue to go that time. We implemented quick build back in january. We have a Pilot Project as a sidewalk level bike way. We plan to begin construction in 2021. Were assuming a two year construction duration. Followed by construction of the f loop. Im sure you all remember that Market Street went car free january 29th. We saw significant increase in bicycling. In the eastbound direction market to main. Turn restrictions from the side street prevented any vehicles from getting onto market other than delivery vehicle and para transit and taxis. I also wanted to update you on our funding plan. Were excited to share that we were selected as part of a accessible housing an sustainable communities grant in the amount of two point seven Million Dollars. Its added to the middle of this chart which youve seen before. That selection was made in june. It will be added to the construction of the first phase between fifth and eighth street. The rest of the funding plan looks very sam similar. Weve been working to fill the first phase of the gap of construction. Weve also looked at other calls for projects and Funding Sources to help fill the gap for the full corridor. I wanted to give you an ow updae on the other changes and steps were taking during the pandemic. Our schedule is delayed about six months for fifth to eighth street. Were taking this time to reevaluate implementation of the project to reduce impacts to businesses. We met with commissioners in march and spoke in detail about reteusing impacts to businesses. How we phase in the project. Minimizing or limiting the am of sidewalk replacement which would directly impact businesses since its in front of their entrances. Looking at way to accommodate the i increase bike volume. Were looking at ways we can provide more space for bicycles. The last thing is were also looking at designing parts of the project, getting it shovel ready for stimulus funds that may become available in the near future. With that ill conclude my presentation and im available to answer any questions. thank you. Are there any questions from commissioners and thank you for the meeting with myself and supervisor haney and taking seriously our concerns that will become all the more true due to covid 19. Seeing no comment from commissioners lets take comment from the public. chair, there is no Public Comment. puck lick comment is now closed. Thank you. Good luck. And good luck getting money. Any new items . Seeing none. Any general comment . Seeing none. there is one Public Comment. Just snuck if there. got it. Excellent. First speaker, please. welcome caller.

We will close general Public Comment and this part of our meeting is adjourned and i think everybody is supposed to stay on and wait a couple of minutes and we will reconvene as the Treasure Island mobility agency. I do not see the chair of that body as one of our participants but i believe the vice chair is available. Okay. Hi, im chris manners and youre watching can the coping with covid19. Today im going to talk about some of the steps that you can take to stay safe as we slowly lift our restrictions. Keep wearing your mask when youre outside your home. Theres a board consensus among medical professionals that wearing a mask will help to contain the virus. And in california youre now required to wear a mask in public or in highrisk settings such as when youre shopping or taking Public Transit or seeking medical care. Not being able to see your friends or family is hard, even if you are Video Conferencing with them. Limited socializing is now okay, but keep the number of people to a minimum to be safe. And try to only spend time with the same folks. Getting together with people indoors is much riskier. So meet up outside, instead of in your home. If you dont have a backyard, choose a park thats nearby. Many of the parks in San Francisco now have social distancing areas on the grass so you can maintain a safe space. And take disinfecting wipes to sanitize anything that others may have touched. Unfortunately, shaking hands and hugging are still out with the virus. And these days a thumbs up are much safer ways of acknowledging somebody else. Some restaurants are now allowed to serve food outside. If you do choose to dine outdoors its safest to only sit with people from your own household. Make reservations at the restaurant and arrive on time so you dont have to wait too long. Many restaurants cant serve food outside because they dont have the space. So dont stop ordering food for pickup or delivery you if you can afford it. Purchase multiple items each time that you go to the supermarket.
