I will go to the chairs report. To my colleagues and members of this past weekend was the fifth annual world day of remembrance for traffic victims in San Francisco. While i was not able to attend i want to think president yee, supervisor mandelman for honoring the victims and families of those killed and injured by these avoidable crashes and for shining a light on the need to reduce speeding. So far, this year, in 201926 people have died in traffic collisions in contrast to the 23 fatalities in all of 2018. Of this years total, 15 People Killed were pedestrians and one was a cyclist. Almost 600 people have been injured in 2019. Our work to deliver vision zero quick work projects more expensively and quickly throughout the city continues and thankfully we will be aided by our collective efforts to get crop d passed earlier this month. The very first surcharge in the state of health when he will bring in an estimated 32 35 million annually to fund Critical Infrastructure investments like mars scramble signals, crosswalks and protected bicycle facilities. It will also help to hire more parking control officers to enforce our city safety laws and start cracking down on bad driving behavior as well as hiring more drivers to staff Public Transit and get people out of their cars and onto our bus and road network. I really want to thank our sacramento delegation for carrying the authorizing legislation for the fee, as well as mayor breed, all of you, our incredible vision zero advocates as well as the t and c companies themselves for supporting this throughout the legislative and electoral approval process. I want to thank my chief of staff for her tireless work on this effort, including the original initiatives which, as you may recall, was a tax that ultimately morphed into this tax as well as our staff at the Transportation Authority. I am looking forward to get these funds out the door as quickly as possible and indeed we just passed trailing implementation legislation to begin that process at the board of supervisors last week. Prop d is a perfect example of what the city and county of San Francisco can do when we were together collectively for the greater good. We took the time to do it right, and now we will be the first in the state to reap the benefits. The promise of these funds, the sfmta is already stepping up to the plate to expand a vision zero quick build a list. I want to thank sfmta for committing to add the embarcadero to that list in the wake of the success. While we work to find these operational improvements. We must continue to push on every possible means of enforcement. At the last ta meeting we heard some of the enforcement numbers and know that we can do a lot better. Focus on the five must be a priority for everyone including the sf ed and Partner Agencies like the port and the mta to save lives. I have been meeting with president yee, and david chew on a path forward on an automated Speed Enforcement here in San Francisco. Cautiously optimistic that we might get some legislation in sacramento in San Francisco. I want to say to the sfmtas incoming director of transportation, jeffrey tomlin, who i have known for some 20 years. Congratulations to the mayor, and the mta board for your recruitment of what i hope will be a strong leader for our citys Transportation Agency. I hope in addition to prioritizing meetings with all of you colleagues, that mr. Tomlin will begin the task of getting to know the neighborhood and grassroots organizations that help fuel the city transit equity and Street Safety adequate advocacy. I know he has hit the ground running visiting maintenance facilities and hopefully meeting with writers and communities of concern directly will be his next step. Jeff will also soon have the benefit of the Muni Reliability Working Group that commissioner mandelman and i have been serving on. I wish you well, and welcome you to our diverse communities. With that, i conclude my remarks. Is there any Public Comment on the chairs remarks . Seeing none. Public comment is closed. The next item. Executive directors report, this is an information item. Thank you so much. I really do want to also thank you for your leadership, tremendous leadership, on the top d passage. This body was very keen from the beginning to get a handle on the situation in San Francisco. We appreciated your leadership and your request for data, to be data driven on this policy issue. We are really excited to get going on that with our partners at the sfmta. We look forward to bringing back some thoughts and we appreciate your guidance on how we might administer these funds right away. I want to begin also about a report back on our annual selfhelp counties conference. I just returned from san diego where we met with the other that have voted to task ourselves to Fund Transportation improvements. There have been 30 years now of promises made and promises kept. We have been celebrating that anniversary with them together because they were one of the inaugural counties in 1989 that has sent sales taxes for transportation. Seeing our first dollar flow the following year, our agency was really set up in 1990. We will be salivating more and telling you more about the work we have been doing collectively next january. I look forward to sharing all of that good experience with the public and continuing to gather input on what it is folks want to see what we should be planning on through our collective Long Range Planning program. And what funds we can generate locally as well as regionally to fund the tremendous needs that we have. Speaking of that. The plaster Bay Area Coalition has convened a Technical Advisory Group comprised of county transportation agencies and Regional Transit operators. We are actively participating in this group and coordinating with sfmta and our sister agencies, Regional Transit operators as well as with the Mayors Office. The proponents are working on legislative language to be introduced in january under senate bill 278. Do you hear from watson about that. We anticipate bringing an update to you and the potential action to our board later in later in december or early next year. Some good news on the funding side. The priority Conservation AreaGrant Application that the direct Park Department submitted wasnt funded 194,000 to develop a neighborhood connections plan to envision a safer and clearer pathway system for walkers, bikers and other park users to navigate to and through mclaren park. We are really pleased to share the good news. We actually submitted letters of interest with our partners, the Planning Department for seven of these priority Conservation Areas. This would include areas such as ocean beach, the northern waterfront, Treasure Island, Golden Gate Park and some other areas of the city. Turning to Treasure Island we were happy to join the director bob back and commissioner Linda Richardson to remember a new to honor a new member. He was recently appointed by Governor Newsom to lead caltrans. We are honored to be his first stop in the bay area last week. Talk a little bit more about that in the Treasure IslandMobility Management Agency board overview. As far as our connectsf we had a great kickoff workshop and the southeast neighborhoods. Three dozen neighborhood do organizations merchants, and folks came out to the Southeast Community facility last week. We had a workshop about what their current needs are and their priorities reflecting on some of the work that has recently been done through our studies. Trying to ensure that we are not missing anything. We are Holding Similar workshops again focused on youth on november 21 from 48 00 p. M. At mission high school. And then in early 2020 we will hold two more of these citywide workshops for everyone else throughout the general public. We will definitely keep you all posted on that work. This is all really important because these ideas are going to go into our countywide Transportation Plan and become the input to the regional plan bay area as well as potential future funding measures. Turning to project delivery, the San Francisco lifeline, it is like one project that bart runs and it has been expanded. It is great to hear that the bart Elevator Program has expanded to the embarcadero stations. We had been one of the early funders. Our board had programmed 2. 6 million of the lifeline funds back in april for these attendants to provide a clean and functioning elevators. It has been very popular. Were happy to see that program expanding. And then finally turning to the admin divisions work we just want to recognize phong and her team for receiving another certificate of achievement for Financial Reporting. This is an award that is awarded to those who have gone over and above and beyond in terms of comprehensive annual Financial Reporting and transparency. The highest form of recognition in the high area of governmental accounting. Congratulations and thank you for your hard work. Business outreach, when less thing. We did participate in some really great events. There was a Business Outreach committee that we are part of. It is local and regional. It is an event called meet the prime. Larger firms to meet with the smaller ones on november 5. It was held in oakland at the metro center. That was very well attended.

My name is kevin ortiz. As a child of San Francisco, some of my earliest memories on the 14 of 22 fillmore. I have seen firsthand how transit is vital to a healthy and vibrant society. Having never owned a car in my lifetime, not because i didnt want to but rather because there is no need to. For communities that are disenfranchised, transit is a critical component, not only for success but also for survival. Ive had the honor to live in various parts of San Francisco. Whether it was waiting for the 44 in the dark over in mission, are not knowing if the 108, now the 25 would even show up at all i have lived many different transit experiences. Transit equity is at the core of these experiences and drives me. Overall, these extremes have shown me consistencies in our transit particularly in communities of color. There is no reason we should have transit deserts. Especially in one of the wealthiest cities in the nation. Ive been fortunate to have become active in the Mission Community with the San Francisco latino democratic and united save the mission coalition. Mitigating the effects of gentrification. I believe my on the ground work as a Community Advocate mixed in with my experience of growing up on transit give me a unique perspective to build partnerships for transit equity to come up with bold and Creative Solutions to the opportunities our transit faces. Including supporting free muni for all. Thank you for your time. Any other applicants that would like to testify . Please come on up. I am sarah rogers, a resident of district nine. Given that supervisor haney,. [inaudible] i have become very interested in transit during my time in San Francisco. It is essential to achieving equity and mitigating the effects of Climate Change. In terms of my own background i have served on the Ingleside PoliceAdvisory Board for seven years and worked with many of your offices on gun buybacks and other projects during that time. Im also the cofounder of district nine neighbors for housing which seeks to make this a city that is livable for all of the populations here. Thank you. I will see you again someday, i hope. Thank you so much. Next speaker, please. Commissioner brown, we are in the middle of yee for appointment. I am philip, i think i have a few somewhat interesting perspectives that would be a strong addition to the committee. First i dont drive, i dont own a car, and i dont use uber or lift earn after learning about their disastrous impacts. When it comes to my daytoday experience im using what everyone else in the district uses. Im a cole valley resident but ive also lived in different parts of the district. I really have a good perspective on riding every single line. I am also pretty young, despite the beard, and only 20. Ive had a lot of good experiences. Ive been a d5 intern. Ive been a walk San Francisco intern at a sfmta intern. Also i am a low income person right now. I really have a good perspective on the sfmta programs when it comes to bike share and scooter share. If i was on the committee, i would, of course, be driven by our transfers to policy and vision zero. Every fund that is disbursed would be used to the very best of its abilities. I also want to have a really good outreach within the district be a true representative of the district and make myself very available to residents to meats, may be set up some kind of outreach like farmers markets and that kind of thing. Thank you for your consideration. Thank you sir. Next speaker, please. My name is stephanie lou, im hoping you will consider me for the vacant position for d5. Im currently serving on the Climate Change steering group. Where i share the subcommittee. Ive and analyzing state transportation bills for the past year. Have a personal background in ive spent many years at google leading programs for developer communities. The last four years working on early stage change projects for google x. I left last summer because i want to make a more in Immediate Impact to Community Organizing and policy work. Transportation is important and interesting to me because i am sure as Everybody Knows it is the largest source of of emissions in california a whopping 41 . Its also so integral to our daily lives, safety. I mean, working Climate Change for the last five years has been depressin
