It is interesting again. It just pointed out how we tend to give the private cars a pass and focus on commuter shuttles. Thank you. Item 7, directors report. Good afternoon director reiskin. Good afternoon, member of the board and public and staff. Want to recognize a number of employees from the agency and first i want to ask the transit director john hailey to come forward to recognize a couple of folks, only one of whom is here for extraordinary heroism. Good afternoon, mr. Hailey. Good afternoon mr. Chairman and board members. 41 days ago right about this time of the afternoon two of our colleagues paul desozea to my left and frank [inaudible] who could not be here today in the course of normal duties came upon a individual being assaulted with a knife in downtown San Francisco. I think most of us would like to think when confronted with that type of a situation our instickts and reactions are to intervene and call for help but most know all too often that isnt what happens. But it is my great honor today and very proud to introduce you to a true hero. Somebody whos selfless actions saved a life and it is my honor to let paul desozea tell you his story for that day and again, honored to introduce a true hero. [applause] thank you. Really this is a big surprise for me for being honored for something that by beliefs and i think my colleagues beliefs frank [inaudible] is something we would do on a daily basis if that would occur. My beliefs you know, i am a christian and peter [inaudible] love all andee overcome all we have. We have to love all. I see all together. It is not only me. Then when we saw this person that was in distress and really needed help, we stopped to do what we thought would be the best to do. A person calling for help, many people around just watching that i call upon my colleague frank [inaudible]. We call him that just because i call him i was on the passenger side and couldnt have control of the truck and said stop recollect stop the truck, somebody is going to get killed if we dont do anything and frank stepped on the break and jumped out of the truck right away and we intervened and we saved this mans life. Not only that man, but the [inaudible] as well. The corrode troyed tried to kick the guy and probably lynch him in the middle of the street and had to contain the people around and try to help out the other gentlemen that had a very bad wound on his neck. Unfortunate to be here but the most important to say we are heroes to be here. I as i see all you hear and feel like you are my heroes because we are all Public Serviceant servants who serve the community and when you serve the community the biggest thing i have i think it is not to serve only myself but to serve the others and i think thats the best part of not being a hero, but be ing a pubhook servant. Thank you so much. The entire agency for your outstanding heroism that day. Proud to hear and happy to honor you. [applause]. Thank you. Mr. Hailey will present the one to mr. Shrive at a later date. Director reiskin. Thank you, next i want to ask tom mcguire director of sustainable street come up and talk about how kids get to squofrom school safely. I like to call sustainable street crossing Guard Program up. So, today as they walk up we will recognize some of the best crossing guards, the ones who take the lead in the field and train all the other crossing guards we have out in the streets at all our schools around San Francisco. Our lead guards are at their every day they train and observe the guards, they jurchl in and assist at the corners when they are needed. These are the folks known for even more than the typical crossing gourd who is pretty terrific if you ask our school parents. Those are the folks who are professional, patient, friendly and honest and accommodating of all the kids they need to keep say. Willing and able to communicate with parents in diverse neighborhoods, the folks with speak, english, spanish, [inaudible] willing to step in to tackle a issue in the field and any project whether participating in office and field training, they make the training videos to demonstrate the safe proper crossing technique, supporting and train thg guard and building good working relationships and working to have safety around the school. I want to introduce them to you and then will ask one to come up and say a few words. We havei will go from your lerft left to right. Luniece thomas. Ophilia gonzalez, yan linn. Phillip nguyen. Phillip [inaudible] and fredric porse. I think rod will say a word or two on behalf oof the group.

It has been our privilege. Thank you so much. [applause] nobody else wants to give a speech . Thank you all again very much. [applause] drether reiskin. Next i like to ask can deuce sue the communication director to come forward and recognize one of her long standing employees. Good afternoon mrs. Sue. Good afternoon chairman nolan and trecters.

There is a lot of work that occurs belined the scenes that allows us to function evectively and nothing could bow more true than with our public website so i will ask chad and christian to come forward. Today we are recognizing charles belloff who we know as chaz for long term efforts in leadership to update and maintain our public website, sfmta. Com. This is a massive under taking and is and always been our sole web mast er at the agency. Chaz has been sfmta and the predecessor agencies since 1996 and he had 20 years in october. He just passed his twnt year anniversary. He came on board as a Public Service aid as part of a Multimedia Services division and at the time tasked to work on a interactive cd rom Driver Training praumgect back in the day when we had cd ram rom. That project received a number of awar including one from mtc. His contribution to his project jz continues to demonstrate this today are invaluable and his work is always just truly top notch. Our public website is one of our moers most important resource frz the public. It is very visible and showcase for his deep dedication to the aemsh agency is why we acknowledge him today mpt i want to mention a number of communication teams members are here to also support chaz and if you want to stand to be acknowledged as well. [applause] thank you. On behalf of the board of director jz agency on the fine work you have done for all these 20 years, thank you. Thank you very much. I thank tooz yoi and the entire board for this honor. I would like taacknowledge the entire sfmta staff who provide conitant for the website without which the website would not be worth visiting. I like to acknowledge the trust, support and space that candice and kristin give me to do my best job. It is a honor to work for this city. Thank you very much. Thank you, sir. [applause] director reiskin. Goes without saying the content thats makes the site most worth visiting is photos of inmember of the board of directors. So, a few updates, one we had a as you all heard a pretty interesting weekend over thanksgiving weekend. Friday morning we learned that we had been infected by some sort of computer issue. This was the day after thanksgiving. From what we know at this pointthe reason i want to intention it has got a lot of attention in the media a lot thf things urmy on were not accurate so want to give more accurate information. One is that from what we know we were hit randomly. We were not targeted as a city agency or transit agency. Just some random result of phising these people put out trying to click on a link you shouldnt click on. We dont believe there is Sensitive Data or non Sensitive Data compromised. No customer or Financial Data or employee data. None of that compromised or hit by this. The day that we learned that there was a issue with our systems before we had not full understanding of what it was we made the decision to open the fair gates in the subway stations. Purely a precautionary measure and fair system wasnt impacted but wanted to make sure as we learned about what was happening we wouldnt put anything at risk. By sunday morning we had the fair gates normally operationm but note the rest the fair system during the weekend including the readers on the buses and trains is all functional. It wasnt free muni all weekend, it was just the fair gates were a period of less 48 hours. We estimate a loss of something under 50 thousand of revenue but thought it was a reasonable approach to take. I also heard folks here shopping downtown thought tfs a gift muni was giving to shoppers so maybe we got good will from that as well. What the malware effected work station squz computers throughout the agencies and meant that we couldnt access things like email i other systems. Fortunately our Information Technology group had through Good Practice had everything backed up so we are able to remake those workstations and bring back all the data and not lose any of it. Of course, we did not pay a ransom or consider paying a ransom and never will pay any ransom. Just fortunately because of the good work of our it folks, we were not preparing for this, we are prepared and able to get our systems back up and running. Both the u. S. Department of home land security and fbi are investigating the matter so cant say anything more at this time. Hopefully they will find the person who is doing this. Thats the real story on thanksgiving day weekend. I want to commend our it staff, many who lost the Holiday Weekend trying to address this. Many of the mta fields and supervisor and management staff who came into work or already working but had to do numerous work arounds to make sure the customers still get around thmpt Transit Service was uneffected. A couple other things, there were a couple of legal rulings i wanted to make you aware of relate today mission bay, one you probably heard about and one you havent. The one you heard about it is essentially the Golden State Warriors the arena and surrounding space was finally cleared. It was a caurt of appeals unanimously afirmed the city approval for the center, so that was a important for the city. Related to that in a way and i say related because obviously mta and muni service and the Street Management were a big part of what made the whole event Center Program possible and i think it was all of the analysis that was done in the environmental documents that the courts found was thorough and adequate. So, as part of that we have our loop, which is a loop designed as part of phase one of the t third lightrail and allows trains to come down from downtown and turngo east on 18th, south on ind iana and back west on 19th to come back on to third street. The good news is we prevailed around all most the same day i think as we got the other rulingprevailed in a lawsuit that challenged the loop. The court of appeals upheld the trial Court Determination that the city complied with ceqa and undertake thg project so after we won at the lower court we did commence work but very happy to have the court of appeal ruling to hopefully put this matter to bed. The construction there is underway and should be done before the end of 2017. Couple ofgue good news item and that loop will enable us to provide more service on the northern end of the t 3 line so relates in a way to the warriors so good news all around there. One minor construction related note, last meeting during Public Comment someone had made a comment about inadequate signage at bal bowo park particularly for people with disabilities and others trying to get to the accessible platform on san jose avenue so grateful for the feedback and able to get the signage up and will be maintained throughout the projethconstruction so wanted to close the loop for you on that. And then finally, vision zero update. First, this spring will be launching a three year city wide Education Campaign in partnership with the Police Department and department of Public Health on motorcycle safety. According to the dmv there were nearly 23 thousand registered motorcycles in 2014 and have a 10 prert increase in fiver years. The state office of transportation ranks having the highest collision rate of motorcycles in california in terms of city we are the 5th highest as a county so it is a incident which is particular concern. 20 percent of all traffic fatalities in 2015 focus the education erfts against the data driven analysis that motorcycles are disproportionately represented in the serious and fatal collisions. The campaign will be fundsed through 190 thousand dld grant and will roll out in the spring. Another vision zero update is relates to folsom and howard streets in the south of market area. South of market area is projected by 2040 to see more than 200 percent increase in resident and 1 40 percent increase in workers rchlt Everybody Knows this is one of the Fastest Growing areas of the city so need to prepare to make sure the Transportation System can accommodate that growth and do so safely. I think you also know if you look that high injury corridor map, a lot of the south of market area contains high injury intersections and corridors. Coming out of the eastern neighborhoods plan as well as the central soma plan, we are kicking off the Folsom HowardStreetscape Project to look how to make the streets safer and provide Better Options for people to get around the south of market neighborhood. To kick that off we will have a couple open houses at the soma recsenter at 276 street. There will be one this thursday december 8 at 6 p. M. And another saturday at noon so we encourage folks to come and we are really going look for input on all the elements that you see with we bring these projects forward, park and loading, byway, pedestrian safety, landscaping and sidewalk amenities, open space all within the context how to keep traffic mubing. That is soma rec Center Thursday at 6 p. M. And saturday at noon and that concludes my report. Thank you director reiskin. Questions or comments. Mb members of the public . Directors report. A question about the report. My name is herbert weiner. One thing about vision zero, you educate the motorcycle, what about the bicyclist as well . Too many ride on the sidewalk y. Had to tell 2 of them they were violating the law. They also go through the traffic lights. Shouldnt that be included with the motorcyclist as well . I thij think that will provide good Public Service. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. Patricia void. Last friday at deviz dareo a man ran a red light or something happened with his car. He hit a priu s which spun around and 45 year old man is dead. For 10 year jz i told mrs. Nolan and talked to mr. Reiskin about this, the time lights on lombard are wrong. There needed to be a delay when the change happened. If we had that delay this union man would be a alive. Number 2, the way the accident happened, the area where the vision zero anybody standing in that place would have been dead. I question some of what is happening with vision zero. Another thing that happened, you talked about new buses. The new buses that i have ridden this is only on items thats what i am talking he mentioned all this. He medicationed the buses . Yes, he did. They are rattling more than the old ones. Im very very very disappointed in what happened. Im disappointed that a person dide because we are ignoreed. He talked about putting outreach to soma. I hope it is better outreach than in the marina [inaudible] i hope that people actually listen at these meetings and listen to what we have to say. Thank you very much. Thank you. Anyone else care to address the directors report . Seeing none, thank you director reiskin. Item 8, Citizens Advisory Council report. I dont see the chairman here today. He isnt here so well move on. Item 9, Public Comment. This is a opportunity for members to address the board on matters within the jurisdiction of sfmta but not on todays agenda. I do have a few speaker cards for you starting with john geordano. Good afternoon. Good afternoon. I like to comment on the shuttle hub study. It is very thorough there is a negative bias towards hubs which based on questionable logic and d
