Commissioner antonini. Yeah. Thank you. I think there was an excellent series in the chronicle on homelessness and culminating with an editorial on the first page that was well written and District Attorney make criticism but put forth some possible solutions some of the keys in the i do not like joyously that that is a problem that is present in good times and bad times not related fully to increasing housing pricing and things like that and it is kind of a National Disgrace because it is much more visible in the cities like San Francisco that is geographyly small and population is relatively small maybe homelessness problems in other cities not as dense as ours is and they noted we spend 200 and 41 million per year on the homelessness problem it was 76 different agencies and 4 hundred contracts they pointed out the fact a lot of offer o overlap and no performances they think this needs to be made for efficient and they have to demand comprehensive care and points to examples of houston and Salt Lake City and new york city excellent tracking systems particularly new york that puts an emphasis on Services Enhancement it is all the way down hues and deal with the chronicling homelessness more directly and targeted than we do we kind of seem to handle all situations dental well need to big bond issue of 2 million and work with other jurisdictions because it is not just a problem in San Francisco it is a problem that is a national one and we have to work with other counties in the area in fact, you know at least 4 hundred and 50 new homeless poem that will soon become homeless come to San Francisco every year and dispense any idea this is as sanctiony for people probation officer want to come here and not participate in programs or follow the laws that was some really well written editorial and particularly the part will providing car comprehensive care and having rules ill urge to you read if it you get it is the sunsetted july 3rd San Francisco chronicle. Couple of comments i have piggybacking off of commissioner antoninis youll see items that that written on homelessness a operated effort between news occults not pick up a publication on line without saying something about the subject matter is it so precedence is ive accident go here for 25 years it is coordinated a lot of the ideas have validity to them i hope we and the supervisors and mayor and everyone involved can look at it and determine how we can get stuff implemented i was reading the New York Times on friday july 1st came across an item of capacity talking to to the sidewalk negative impact new york here we are in San Francisco talking about not enough parks or transportation all this population coming but no infrastructure to support it and here 2, 3, 4 new york city the population increased so much the sidewalks were not big enough to hold the people especially in key areas and talking about people walker in the street not walking on the sidewalk that is something that really, really resonated with me there are limitations physical limitations to growth this is one of them and interesting enough tim 7 vision zero one of the items that we have in that general plan amendment talks about the width of the sidewalk need took wide enough to handle the people and the infrastructure not just transportation and he in yesterdays chronicle the city will buy a new park that will be coming at 11 a half acre in the park which is i believe part of eastern neighborhoods vision and plan to create for parks that city is incredibly underserved that wont be online for another 10 years and no parks coming 15 years later this is some of the frustration were seeing in the city to have all the population but the infrastructure is far behind it thanks.

General Public Comment seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Commissioners that places us under our regular calendar on item 7 item 6 is continued for case vision zero general plan amendments. Good afternoon, commissioners lilia Planning Department staff im here with a proposal to make changes to the general plan to reflect the citys vision zero maria with the sfmta is the cochair of the task force is here with me as well id like to provide a quick overall of go vision zero and provide a highlevel overall of the changes ill note the department is working on a large update a multi year effort until the amendment before you is with vision zero and Public Safety. So just as a reminder vision zero was a citywide goal to create a culture for Traffic Safety to make sure that they dont result in serious Bodily Injury and adopted as a policy in 2014 the city a working to achieve vision zero through a number of the designs of the street and campaigns and targeted improvement and changes to city policy in june of 2014 i was before you with a resolution which of the adopted and the commission passed this resolution in support of vision zero and outlined a number of things the department can help to achieve that goal since the resolution the department implemented congressmans to how we review the straights to look at streetscape and flagged it so those streets and map is available to the public and project sponsors and city staff our street Advisory Team or f stat is looking at Street Safety and updated the better check list to make it clear that the straight plan it reviewed and held changes to various departments various divisions within the department. So in mind with all those actions were proposing to make amendments to reflect those policies as as you may know the general plan it the city guiding document to shape the decisions how the decisions effect the aspects in our everyday life from where we live and work to the design of our parks, to Affordable Housing implementation in the general plan direct the allocation as well as shape the development the Department Look at the Capital Improvements and make finding with the general plan and other agencies requisite our Capital Improvement in the street changes currently the adjoin plan in reference vision zero norway reflect the work the city is doing around Public Safety that update is really an implementation action that was before you two years ago. This proposal will amend the both the transportation element and the urban design with the specific policies and minor tech amendment to reflect the vision zero policy specific changes include a new obviously specific to vision zero including for the Street Safety and a multi disciplinary approach for Public Safety engineering measures and education campaigns and updated obviously specifically to designing the walking and updated obviously related to the Pedestrian Network and the key walking streets and finally minor techs amendment to make sure it is consistent throughout the element. The Department Recommends approval of the intent to initiate the amendment and schedule an adoption meeting on october 6, 7, 8 inhibitions be happy to answer any questions you may have. Opening up for Public Comment general Public Comment on item 7 vision zero. Good afternoon sue hester he would like to thank the department for struggling with this issue i have been con fronting parts of vision zero since the 340 bryant street what was first time i heard vision zero that was Office Building erected surrounded by traffic to get into the bay bridge i was asked that he people that deal with handicapped issues to remind Planning Department im doing it here when you i absolutely some of the things that should, factored into the work that is not already is we are a city of hills and hills occasionally are obstructions and in the case of getting into the bridge it was an area none thought about how to get to it is so you werent by freeway sees ridiculous constraint specific for people in wheelchairs, people have 1r0ish9 problems people that are struggling to get across streets those should be part of can vision zero deals with coming from my house to here he went over 3 blind hills really it was because my route was interrupted by tree trimming in the street and i realized how Vulnerable People waking over those hills in Bernal Heights are because a car literally cannot see them even if the car is going 10 Miles Per Hour the Planning Department often forgets that the city is not flat we have mountains in the middle of the city and people and this is a plea from a person from senior disability action that have mobility problems in a wheelchair and they have constraints in walking the city does pay sufficient attention that level of mobility and it is one of the enormous challenges for vision zero so because he wasnt able to come here today, i told him id bring up those issues i walk with a cane but
