attorney and then became general council of the school district here in san francisco, and through that became involved in politics and at some point decided to run for office. [speaking spanish] >> i think that san francisco really represents the best that this country has to offer. it's a place that welcomes people from all over the world, from all over the country, and it's a place that not only tolerates, but actually embraces diversity, a place that is very forward thinking in terms of how it looks at issues. it always felt like home, and i felt that as a gala tino man that this -- gay la taken no man, that this is a place where i could be happy. now doing the job of a supervisor has been the most rewarding experience. it is really remarkable how amazing our neighborhoods are, how amazing its people are. i have a progressive outlook in terms of how i see things, and by progressive i mean we have to make government and make the city work for everyone, and that means that it's not just those who are doing well, it's also those who are not doing so well, those who have the least. but

>> good afternoon everybody and welcome to the san francisco board of supervisors' meeting of march 22nd, 2016. madam clerk, please call the roll. >> thank you, madam president. supervisor avalos. >> supervisor avalos? avalos present. president breed? >> here. >> breed present. >> campos present. supervisor cohen. >> present. >> cohen present. >> supervisor farrell not present. supervisor kim? kim present. supervisor mar. >> here. >> mar present, supervisor peskin present. >> tang present. supervisor wiener? wiener present. supervisor yee? yee present, madam president you have a quorum. >> thank you, ladies and gentlemen, please join us for the pledge of allegiance. i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of america, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under god, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> thank you. madam clerk, are there any communications? >> yes, madam president. from supervisor farrell, dated march 8th, requesting that he be excused from today's meet colleagues, is there a motion to excuse supervisor faler? motion by supervisor avalos, seconded by supervisor cohen, colleagues can we take this without objection? without objection, supervisor farrell is excused. [ gavel ] >> all right. madam clerk, please call the first item? >> item no. 1 is the consideration of the mayor's veto pursuant to charter section 2.106. of an ordinance amending the planning code to increase the transportation sustainability fee for non-residential projects. this ordinance was approved by the board on march 1st, and vetoed on march 11, 2016. the question before the board is shall the mayor's veto be overridden and the ordinance finally passed? the yes-vote overrides mayor's vote and no-vote sustains the mayor's vote. this action requires two-thirds vote, eight affirmative votes despite the absence of a member. >> supervisor avalos. >> i will start with a quote from franklyn roosevelt, test of our progress is rather we add more to the abudance of those who have enough, but to provide enough for had those who are little? before us today is the choice to support those who have much, big developers, or those who have little, the working people of san francisco. as we come to the conclusion of the effort on the transportation sustainability fee, i want to thank all of the many people who worked to create this measure, that is before us today. the planning department, and the planning commission, the sfmta, the train providers union and equity coalition and i would like to thank by ladies and gentlemen ive aid jeremy pollack for his tireless work on this version of the transportation sustainability fee. this veto underscores the economic bias of mayor ed lee, a bias that favors the wealthy at the expense of work people. mayor lee has you to thed his reputation to bring people together, however this veto calls into question the mayor's consensus approach. i would dual at the end of the concessions approach, get a bunch of people in the room and stack it with the rich and powerful and force the less powerful to make concessions. in the end the working people get less and end up paying more out their own personal pocketbooks for basic city services. the concessions approach, brought us a lower inclusionary-level in the housing trust fund, a lower-level that we're now trying to fix and gave us tepid gross receipts tax that left millions on the table for tech companies to pick up and you now the tsf. when muni has an enorthrop grumman backlog of deferred maintenance, $10 billion deferred backlog as identified by the process, it makes no sense that the city concedes and leaves money on the table for big developers to pick up. the tsf that passed in december was not a consensus measure. , it was a measure that in december 7 members of this body voted as inadequate and it make stronger. the 7 voted to bank the revenue from the inadequate tsf and send a stronger measure to committee for approval in accordance with our board rules. the media especially the chronicle has completely blocked out the content of this stronger measure and reported the veto as some sort of political game rather than an effort to give developers a break or to increase revenue for the shortfall in our transportation system. one of our members called the inadequate tsf fair. i asked again fair to whom? notice to the riders of muni who face inadequate funding and knot to the workers of muni, who have to contend with less and certainly not to the taxpayers that foot the bill that sub disses of rich and powerful developers are getting. there has been a long public process of the measure before us today and most noteworthy is the planning commission meeting where commissioners unanimously supported all of the amendments i recommended before them, and approved and even stronger measure than the one that is before us today. i also brought all of these amendments up at multiple board of supervisors' land use and transportation committee and here at the board of supervisors. despite the mayor's claim of consensus, with the extension of one letter from the chamber of commerce, i have not heard from a single person who is opposed to this measure before us today. so why the blockout and why the veto? this measure charges $2 per square foot for commercial developments over 100,000 square feet. $2 more. up to $21 a square foot. for commercial property that is in the pipeline, but not yet received entitlement from the planning commission and also grandfathers in a new fee set at half the difference between the old tidf and tsf. this before us today raises $2 million annually and $30 million in one-time funds with our enormous transportation needs and huge demands on transit, san francisco cannot afford to turn this money down. adding to the wealth of the wealthy is no why to promote development, nor fulfill our transportation needs. i urge you colleagues to support this measure and be fair to the people of san francisco, the taxpayers, the muni riders and workers and not just to the rich and powerful developers. >> thank you, supervisor avalos. supervisor wiener. >> thank you very much, madam president >> i'll be voting to sustain the veto based on merchant years' of work that went into crafting an excellent transportation sustainability fee and did it in a broad-based collaborative way that will significantly benefit our transportation system over time. i want to commend supervisor avalos for that. i thought it was just a really barn-burner speech that if you didn't know anything about what has land happened to-date, you might say wow how could i make a different position? the problem with the comments that we just heard frankly completely ignores everything that went before. the transportation sustainability fee is not a new thing that just materialized out of thin air. for years and years five years for me, and i know there was work even before i got involved, we had been working to take our transportation impact development fee that has been on the books for 35 years, and to bring it into 21st century to have developers pay significantly more and that is exactly what we did. when you look at what the tif d the item that was passed by this board last yeah, takes the annual contribution of developers to our transportation system from $26 million, a year. to $45 million a year. it almost doubled what developers will pay per year into our transportation system, nearly a $20 million increase. that tsf, that $20 million increasing, the near doubling the transportation sustainability fee was achieved because what we did for the first time ever in 35 years we extended transportation impact fees to be residential development. residential development for 35 years did not pay a penny under our transportation impact development fees and we fixed that by including residential development for the first time. in addition under what we passed late last year, we significantly increased what commercial development had to pay compared to what they had previously paid and not only did we increase it, we increased it in what was initially introduced and supervisor cohen and i in committee increased it onn commercial development yet again. so for years we worked on this. we came out with an excellent product that will produce almost $20 million a year more than what they were paying otherwise. so to suggest that anyone, the mayor or members of this board of supervisors are trying to cut developers a break, frankly is ridiculous. developers are going to pay almost $20 million a year more than they would have otherwise for a total of approximately $45 million a year in transportation impact development fees, paid for by developers. to say that if you are not in favor of increasing it from $45 million to $47 a year, you are somehow not supporting working people and you are siding with the 1% is absolutely specious and political game and that is what this is really about. we took a gigantic step forward putting legislation together in the way that you should put it together and we passed it and it's done. at some point the legislative process ends and you move forward with implementation. anyone can always take the position it's not enough and that developers should pay more, but what we did was a gigantic step forward. what is being proposed today, frankly, is very, very small. it's not going to accomplish anything, but i do understand it makes for good political theater. i will be supporting the veto today. >> thank you, supervisor wiener. supervisor mar. >> thank you. i wanted to respond to a few of the points that supervisor wiener made ands will thank supervisor avalos and vision zero and pro-transportation coalition for standing up to override the mayor's veto. it's $2.4 million a year that would go into a better transit system and $30 million in one-time revenue. i don't think that is a little amount. though we need much more. but i think this is about equity and it's about requiring the largest developers to pay their fair share as supervisor avalos mentioned. so i urge my colleagues to join supervisor avalos and myself and others to override mayor lee's unfortunate vetov this task force measure. thank you. >> thank you, supervisor mar. supervisor campos. >> thank you, madam president and with all due respect to my colleagues, who will be voting to sustain this veto, the argument that is being made by these developers is sort of what happened with airbnb. it took airbnb so many years to pay its back taxes, and it was so used to not playing by the rules for so long that when it finally followed the rules, it was actually boosting about that. in this case, these developers are not used to paying nothing for so long that when they are paying an amount, even if it's a small amount relative to what they should be paying they somehow think they are giving their -- they doing us a favor. let's be clear here, it is a giveaway to big developers and it so happens in this case , people say, at one point legislative process those end. why is it that the legislative process has to end when it actually benefits developers? how about stopping the legislative process when it gets to the point of actually helping real people, regular people? that is what we are saying. you know, they may argue all they want, but at the end of the day, they are giving a big giveaway to development community. >> thank you, supervisor campos. supervisor kim. >> just want to speak in support of supervisor avalos' amendments to the transportation sustainability fee. this has been a long-term discussion and, in fact all of these amendments were before the planning commission and, in fact they supported more tiered fee structure for how we do transportation fees for particularly our commercial buildings and our residential, depending on size. we know that those who build larger projects not only have a larger impact on our transit system, they can also usually afford to pay more. this is modest change, but more fair change not just for the every day residents of san francisco, but developers as well. each project is not equal and it makes sense that we tier our fee as the projects get larger he you pay a little bit more. as you create more jobs and put more workers in the downtown area, you pay a little bit more to help support our transit system. over the last couple of weeks we have been having conversations about what is the most appropriate revenue source for funding public transit? and this board agreed that one of the ways to do that was not a flat fee on tow away charges that can change anywhere from $600-$800 that really impoverished low-income and working-class households and residents in the city. we worked with sfmta to reduce the fees and acknowledging there would be a hole in the budget when we took that revenue source away. now the more appropriate revenue source for funding our public transit system is a progressive tiered fee. this is one of those options and alternates. we can ask for developers who can give more to our public transit system and certainly a lot more than our working-class residents that get slapped with a $600-800 tow away charge for one singular mistake and yet this board is now going to stay they can't support a slight increase in the transportation sustainability fee. i think that this is an important policy question for this board to continue to tackle? there there are ways that are not as regressive to continue to invest in our transit system and members have said they would introduce a set aside or supplemental appropriation if of which i think we all agree is right thing to do. i think this is one of those appropriate revenue sources to help continue to support our rich and well-developed public transit system. so i will be voting to support supervisor avalos' amendments today. >> thank you, supervisor kim. supervisor avalos. >> thank you. just to continue my political theater, i actually agree with supervisor wiener. there has been a great deal of work on creating a new tsf and i would say that supervisor wiener has done a lot of work only that. and i do appreciate his movement to build a new framework for the tsf. we needed that new framework because we left a lot of money on the table compared -- compared to what we have in place now. by not approving the tsf and that was something that was really important to me. we developed a framework for the tsf, but how we settled on a fee that is anemic compared to what it could be with this measure is something beyond me? i don't know how we got to settle on the fee that we have today? we had discussion in committee to raise the fee. there were votes in committee to do that and the votes kept it in committee to be the lower fee until we actually made this new improved version before us today. we had six members of the board of supervisors who supported -- that is the majority -- who supported this higher fee, which will raise $2 million a year and $30 million in one-time funds. that to me says there are many ways that we could have crafted the fee beyond the framework that we put together over the years. so this framework, this fee that we have before us today, means that we approve it, and override this veto, we're saying to the taxpayers you will not have to subsidize the transportation impacts of big development. that is the final vote we have today. by sustaining the veto, you are saying to the taxpayers, it's you who have to pay for the impacts of big development and not the developers themselves. that is the clear choice that is before us today. >> thank you, supervisor avalos. supervisor wiener. >> thank you. you know, i just -- and supervisor avalos, we actually work well together on a lot of transportation issues and i know we will, we just have a real disagreement on this one. to suggest that the tsf is telling developers that they don't have to pay is just not consistent with the facts. developers are going to pay $45 million a year under the tsf, $19 million a more year than they would have paid. we almost doubled what developers have to pay. we extended it the first time to residential and increased it repeatedly on commercial. so if someone wants to argue that we need to -- that there is some sort of meaningful difference between $45 million a year and $47 million a year, let's be real clear. that is what the argument is here, should they pay $45 a year or should they pay $47 million a year? that is what this big argument is about and to suggest that is the difference between developer s paying their fair share and not paying their fair share, that -- there is no basis for doing that and that is why i referred to this as a " political theater." because it's not about the actual money. i have fought very hard for funding for transit. authored proposition b, that is generating almost $30 million a year for transportation in the city. now every member of this board of supervisors supported proposition b. it made it barely out of this body to the voters. so i get it; that we need more funding for our transportation system. but to have a fight between $45 million and $47 million it is not about the money. that is about scoring political points vis-a-vis the mayor or whoever else. >> thank you, supervisor wiener. supervisor avalos. >> thank you. i have just wanted to have the last word. [laughter ] thank you supervisor. and with that, colleagues, madam clerk, can you please call the roll? >> on item 1, supervisor breed? >> no. >> breed no. supervisor campos? >> aye. >> campos aye. >> supervisor cohen? >> no. >> cohen no. >> supervisor kim? >> aye. >> kim, aye. >> supervisor mar? >> aye. >> supervisor peskin. >> a. >> supervisor tang? >> no. >> supervisor wiener? >> no. >> supervisor yee. >> yee aye. >> supervisors avalos. >> avalos aye. >> six ayes and four twos supervisors breed, cohen, tang and wiener in the dissent. >> the veto is sustained and the ordinance fails. [ gavel ] >> madam clerk, please call the next item. >> item 2 is an ordinance to suspend administrative code section 21.1. the competitive solicitation process for electronic health record system for the department of public health san francisco health network to approve the selection of the regents of university of california as the preferred contractor. >> roll-call vote on item 2. >> supervisor breed? >> aye. >> breed aye. >> supervisor campos? >> aye. >> campos aye. >> supervisor cohen. >> no, cohen no. >> supervisor kim? >> no. >> kim, no. >> supervisor mar? >> aye. >> mar aye? >> supervisor peskin? >> peskin aye. >> supervisor tang? >> tang aye. >> supervisor wiener? >> wiener aye. >> supervisor yee? >> yee aye. >> supervisor avalos? >> aye. >> avalos aye. >> there are eight ayes and two nots with supervisors cohen and kim in the dissent. >> the ordinance finally passes. [ gavel ] . >> next item, please. >> item 3-5 were referred without recommendation from the budget and finance committee. item 3, is an ordinance to appropriate $2.5 million from the general fund reserve to the recreation and park department for facilities improvements in the geneva car barn in 2015-16. >> supervisor avalos? >> thank you, president breed. colleagues, i first want to thank the budget committee for forwarding -- for hearing this item and moving it forward. this supplemental, was something that i had introduced in early december before the mayor's budget instructions had come out. this is a project, geneva office building powerhouse has been a project decades in the making. it sit on the corner of san josÉ and geneva avenue. and it's an industry area that is passed through by thousands and thousands of people going to muni and bart every morning and evening. this is an industrial area right in the middle of district 11, between mission terrace neighborhood, cuyahoga neighborhood and it would be a vital place to put together a place to go through, that is just not a place to pass through on your way to bart or muni. we are already making a neighborhood here in this neighborhood by building affordable housing across the street from geneva office building. the powerhouse that is before us today, that this supplemental would fund would fund phase 1 of the building that would create an arts space, performance space, and practice space, that would be used by arts organizations in the southern part of san francisco. heretofore in the city's history we have never had such a facility in the southern part of san francisco and it's vitally needed especially when we see in district 11, there are hundreds of artists who make their art in the city, but practice it elsewhere. we also have a really great organization called the youth art exchange, that does some incredible work and does a lot of community development work through art, and this would provide a great venue for them to showcase their work in the district. right now they do it soma, rather than district 11 where they are based. there are a lot of things i could say about this neighborhood and how its been passed over by decades' of neglect from the city, and during our economic boom, we have seen much of san francisco transform itself before you are as and not just new buildings maze made for the private sector, but development fees and neighborhood impact fees around those developments as well. but we see no development in district is he and general fund dollars that go from our city budget to support the developments around big developments in other part of the san francisco, south of market, along our waterfront and along market street, but we don't have that kind of development in the district 11. it makes so much sense that we help to build the equity that we don't have in our development and general fund dollars that go to neighborhoods based on that development. that is what this supplemental really does. while we see this great economic boom, and we're not saying that revenue come and trickle down to our neighborhoods. most of all, we don't have the plumbing for that to trickle down. this supplemental is a form of plumbing to be able to get some of our wealth that is generated to a neighborhood that greatly needs it; that will help to jump-start the development in an area that has seen such neglect and really bring it up to the 21st century. so i have beth reuben stein from my office, who will show you the images of geneva office building and powerhouse. if we can get that lined up? this is the neighborhood. could you point to where the -- i guess you have to do it there, no? that is the building in question, 280 and muni yards and we're building a neighborhood in the middle. one of the key public facilities will be the geneva office development and across the street from there will be the upper yard, 100% affordable housing 85 units will be built and it's just one way to complement the effort. our next view and we probably don't have to go so to the screen. this is how the building looked in the '70s when it was in use and how it currently looks right now. it is a really great facade and great beauty and great potential, but still, more or less an eyesore in the neighborhood. the next slide is the current powerhouse, which is actually the site of phase 1 that the supplemental will help close the gap in funding to make happen. and this is the final version of the entire building when it's fully developed, still looking for the entire amount of money for that. the next slide will be what is actual phase 1 of the powerhouse site will be the performance space and practice space that this supplemental will help fund. there is currently money from the last park bond $3 million, that is there. we have actually contribute edsome funds from our budget over the years for design documents and this $2.5 million that is before us today will finally close the gap so we can move forward on this project. colleagues, there is no better time to support district 11. we have had multiple opportunities to show that and each time the board of supervisors has risen to the occasion to support this neighborhood. our district, district 11 is completely united behind this, from every walk of life from every economic sector, from all of our neighborhood associations and social justice organizations are all behind this measure, and really hoping that you can help move this forward and support it. thank you, colleagues. >> thank you. supervisor tang. >> thank you. first i will start by saying that i think this is an incredible project that i really look forward to seeing happen. i think that there has been a lot of uniformity around it with constituents and supervisor avalos has certainly been a really good champion for this partnership for many, many years. as i said in budget committee, i think that for me, i'm just not comfortable with supporting a supplemental for this at this moment. i think this really belongs in the budget process and deliberations and year and year after i have seen even before i became a supervisor there has been a commitment to fund this project. we have all supported it in our various forms and various budget processes. i think that is something, again, a conversation that belongs in the budget process. so i do not have anything against this project. i think that it's going to serve the community very well it's complete and i think there have been funds set aside as well in previous parks bonds that have passed by voters. i think $2 million, for example, for construction. so i know there is a funding gap. i think if it came before the board of supervisors and budget committee, it's something that againly continue to support. but just not in this form. >> president breed. >> thank you. i would like to associate myself with the comments of supervisor tang. i, too, think this is a great project and i do think it belongs in the budget process. we have a process for this particular matter for a reason. i remember over the past three years, before we were able to fund keizer track to get that done it was turned down year over year by the capital budget committee and finally funded after being rejected aat least three times by recreation and park and keizer drive is basically the responsibility of rec and parks, but a major thoroughfare for people who drive through the park and has been in a state of disrepair and recreation and park didn't fund repairing that particular keizer drive. it was funded by dpw. i just think that although there is a lot of great intentions i have an amazing project in my district, the muni substation, which is a bright on the filmore. i would like $2.5 million to rehabilitate the station and make what has been promised to the community for so many years, but i realize there are so many projects in in the city and so much to do and challenges to getting everything that we want done in a timely manner. it's not to say that i wouldn't support this project through the process in the process. i have supported funding for this project in the past, but with our budget process coming up i do think it's more appropriate to include a project of this nature in the budget process and not as a supplemental at this time. so unfortunately, i can't support the supplemental. thank you. >> supervisor yee. >> thank you. when we had this discussion at the budget committee, we actually continued this item for a week, in the hope that supervisor avalos would be able to have a discussion with the mayor's office to see a clear pathway in funding this project. yes, this project is in district 11 and borders about two blocks from my district. so in many ways this project really impacts both our districts, both 11 and 7 directly. i have been supportive of this project, really exciting project that has been sitting there for a while. i'm going to be supporting this supplemental, and hope -- my hope is that even if we get the supplemental today, that this discussion at the budget -- during the budget process will happen any way. we'll be still be far short of the funding required to complete the whole project. so colleagues, i really hope that i'm hearing the right thing, which is that people will continue to support this project in one form or another. i'm hoping today that many of you can actually vote-yes on this item. >> thank you, supervisor yee. supervisor campos. >> thank you, madam president. my understanding from what has been said about this project is that this project is ready to go. and while i understand and respect the fact that people as a general rule don't want to do supplementals, i think that in terms of moving this project forward it might actually be more expensive to wait to actually begin the work. and i certainly was very impressed with the feedback from this community and to me, if we're going to end up approving this funding a few months down the road, i think that we should not let form dictate over substance. i think we should just move this forward. i know from being on this board that supervisor avalos has been very responsible in how he brings any supplemental before this board. it's not something that he does, and so i'm going to defer to his judgment, and he believes this is something that is needed for his district. >> >> thank you, supervisor campos. supervisor peskin. >> thank you. some 15 years ago when the mta owned this property, it was actually going to be demolished. the city rallied and then my then college supervisor sandoval rallied and district 11 rallied and we were able to make, i think, a courageous decision under the leadership of then rec and parks general manager elizabeth gold stein to transfer that facility to rec and parks. it's been a decade-and-a-half. supervisor sandoval endeavored for eight years. supervisor avalos has endeavored now for an additional eight years. i think the time has come. this is not about district 11. this is part of the city's patrimony. this is a great historic resource. we can breathe new life into this resource. it will create jobs. it will create housing >> it will create a much-needed facility and save one of the greatest early-century buildings of this city. i urge all of you to consider this and to vote for it. it is time to get it done. >> thank you,supervisor peskin. with, that seeing no other names on the roster, madam clerk please call the roll. >> on item 3 supervisor breed? >> no. >> breed no. supervisor campos? >> aye. >> campos aye. >> supervisor cohen? >> aye. >> cohen aye. >>

[ applause ] colleagues i have one more commendation that i'm doing with supervisor avalos. and if i may ask this incredible individual to please come on up to the podium? john rodney. [ applause ] >> you know, how do i put this? if you live in gotham city, you have batman and you call on batman whenever the city is in danger, and if you are an immigrant in the bay area, and you are under attack, you have to put out the signal for john rodney to come to the rescue. i want to ask everyone who is in the audience to honor john rodney to please stand. take that bruce wayne. thank you. [laughter ]john rodney is loved by so many people. my office and myself have been talking about honoring john for so many years, probably the first year we came into office and yet, life gets in the way, because at every turn, there is? issue, some attack against immigrants. so john is the communications mastermind for the bay area immigrants right movement and information guru in every case that the san francisco bay area has had in years. he has been on the frontlines of this effort to gain comprehensive immigration at the national level and led the first major piece of legislationion we passed for. te was the communications guru behind cy id card and local efforts to pass the dream act and daka and fight against car impoundment and fight for trust act, fight for due process for all, the effort to guarantee legal representation for every child placed in the fast-track, the so-called rocket dockett in immigration court and the list goes on and on and what else can i say except for being you are in great hands. he is truly an unsung hero. he is smart and has an amazing memory and speaks spanish with an accent that sounds native. anyway, i will turn it over to supervisor avalos but john, thank you for everything, and like i said, you really are our super hero in the bay area. [ applause ] >> gosh, a long time ago i actually had some training in media and have some kind of fascination with it and media advocacy. and i learned so much from you, after all of that. and it's really great to see that you are among us in the bay area to help us do all of the really challenging work of creating a world that supports immigrants, and i just want to say, i love you, man. and all of these people who actually share their love and respect for you. i just wanted to say it on the mic and just thank you for your work, and what is your dog's name again? >> tony. >> thank you for bringing tony with you as. we would not be as strong a coalition fighting for immigration right without our work and all of us have benefited from your wisdom. thank you. >> [ applause ] >> john, if you and tony would like to say a few words. >> yes. this is a lot -- thank you. i brought tony with me, because i do have a confession. tony actually writes the press releases. [laughter ] >> i just edit them -- sometimes i don't. i was not expecting this. i'm very humbled. it's wonderful to work with both you, david and you john, all of you and our offices as this board has challenged the cruel and unjust deportation machinery this country has. i think what communications work is really about is standing with people who are standing up against injustice. and challenging this hateful idea of the "other" that has really been plaguing the discourse and embracing folks who come out and support their stores. supporting people like many in this room who have faced deportation and stood up and supporting people like the families of mario and alex, who are still fighting for justice, and i think it's about supporting people who are fighting displacement, and exploitation in an economy that every day is more unequal. and this is a pretty scary time that we're all living in, but i think that what communications work should really do is really lift up our best ideals rather than retreat from them and i think this board has done this, last october with the votes for due process and rejection of the jails and many other great examples and we're all looking forward to working with you for more exciting stuff like that. so thank you. [ applause ] thank you. [ applause ] >> thank you for your work, john and congratulations. now i would like to recognize supervisor eric mar for other commendsation. >> thank you, since we're referring to super heroes i will just say it there is a wonderful woman for economic justice in the room for us today. would donna levitt, the director, and i see labor and community activists from grassroots organizations to labor council here in the house with us as well. we're going to be commending donna levitt on her retirement from olse. she has led the office of labor enforcement for years and her work has helped thousands and thousands of families who have been victims of wage-theft and other abuses. when donnaaz hired to lead the olse in 2002, she brought over 20 years of construction and labor experience. she was a pioneering tradeswoman who began her apprentice as a carpenter in 1980 where she progressed to superintendent, estimator and union representative. donna was the first woman to head a major construction local at the united brotherhood of carpenters and joiners of america and her distinguished career -- her amazing career, i think has included service on the california building standards commission, the san francisco landmarks preservation advisory board and executive board of the san francisco labor council and thank you to tim and connie for being here with us too. donna's experience in prevailing wage enabled her to develop effective enforcement strategies. during her tenure, san francisco has led the nation in passing landmark labor laws, which the olse was assigned to enforce. because of young workers united and progressive workers alliance we have the first in the nation raising the minimum wage paid sick-leave and a number of other laws, wage-theft laws as well and donna's leader, the osle enforces fair chance ordinance, family-friendly workplace and the most recent addition, which i'm very proud of, the retail workers bill of rights, which i helped to author, along with jobs for justice and assemblyman david chiu, the challenges of rule-making show donna's experience and her understanding of the regulatory frameworks of local, state and federal laws. because of olse's successful model, donnas a commitment to work welcome the grassroots communication organizers has helped the most disenfranchised workers to fighttor their works and build empowerment efforts and combat wage-theft. san francisco has been so fortunate to have donna's dedication to workers' rights. donnella, you have left a remarkable legacy behind and hopefully one that will remain with us for years to come. we have big shoes to fill that you are leaving. donna, as we move forward, i and my colleagues hope that the mayor and the city will fill this position with a strong champion like you, for workers' rights. as you have been and that we find the same steady and skilled leadership that you have provided, especially someone with the understanding of the legislative framework. >> supervisor campos is on the roster. >> thank you very much. madam president. i will be very brief. what a day today. monsignor romero and john rodney and now donna levitt and it's hard to imagine our city government without donna and her presence at olse. when you look at the prosperity that we have had as a city, there are things still not right and we have the office of labor standards enforcement and that office has become the great equalizer, when it comes to so many low-paid workers; for whatever reason, you know, are the victims of the system. whether it's wage-theft or employers not following the rules, i have seen donna and her office do justice for so many of these workers time and time again. i can only imagine the thousands and thousands of people whose lives are better because of the work that you have done, done donna and that is quite a legacy you take with you. i want to say as the supervisor for district 9 and as a resident of san francisco, i'm eternally grateful to you, for being there, for workers, for making sure that we do right by every worker. and for the integrity and commitment that you bring to the job. it will always be remembered, and it's a legacy that you should be very proud of; and i hope that you get to take some time and enjoy with family, but i just want to say a job well-done. thank you very much. >> thank you, supervisor campos >> supervisor avalos. you have a lot of fans, donna. >> donna, just wanted to say thank you for running this office for so many years. it seem like every year we added a new mandate for your office to take up and you never said no. you were always understanding just how you were going to do that, but i just wanted to say thank you. you ran a really great ship and you have tremendous stapp staff working under you that have done a very fine job. your office does a lot of work with immigrants, the ones who seem to bear the brunt of wage-theft and employers not following the rules. my district is 50-foreign-born and i just want to say thank you for taking on that responsibility for training really great staff do that work and we want to make sure that the person who comes after you understands the regulatoriv framework and knows how to work with different systems that you have to work with the plumbing and regulatory system. i wanted to add that a lot of groups -- a lot of cities in the country doing work increasing worker's rights and minimum wage and health care type of ordinances, but a lot of them don't think about having a labors standards enforcement office to do that work and your office has been a great example for the entire country how do this work. i know a lot of people have come and visited and talked to you and your staff of how you get this work done? so thank you for leading the way across the country as well. >> thank you, supervisor avalos. supervisor peskin. >> thank you, madam president. it has been pleasure over the last decade-and-a-half to watch the olse go from weekend being a one-ordinance shop to 15-ordinance shop. when i first became a supervisor, this was the ask from the house of labor. i don't think any of us realized it would become a national model, and to donna, i want to say, that you have been tough, and fair, and most importantly, impervious to political interference. supervisor avaloss is that you ran a good ship. i want to say that you navigated the political waters very, very well. you didn't let any of us or the chief executive tell you what do or when to do it. you applied it fairly and it's a tough job. because when you are enforcing against folks, it's never easy and it's never fun, but you always did it calmly and i look forward to having someone who fill yours shoes that is going to navigate those waters without being politically enphered interfered and to envision what olse was. thank you for your service. >> thank you, supervisor peskin [ applause ] . >> supervisor kim. >> i wanted to acknowledge donna on your leadership at osle and it requires using a scalpel and not a knife and i want to acknowledge your work. we had an opportunity to work with your department where [speaker not understood] and we would not have been able to do our work as effectively in achieving our goals if not for your input during the legislative process and certainly afterwards you and your staff ensuring that our laws actually get implemented. it's one thing to write great laws, but without enforcement, and i know this takes an incredible amount of work and leadership. thank you. i'm very sad to see you go. i hope we can find someone that can certainly physical your big shoes. thank you for your service tour city. our city. >> thank you. supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much. donna, here we are -- sharing wonderful thoughts and experiences that we have over the years and i have come to know you only in last six years, but we're recognizing you and your wonderful attributes and talents that you have brought to the city and makes me wonder who you have coached to fill the big shoes that you now leave vacant? i'm particularly reminded on ban the box work and helping particularly communities of color and those reentering from the justice system back into the community to get jobs and to get housing. and much of what supervisor kim was saying, these laws mean nothing if there is no one watching, if there is no one enforcing and this role you have filled for many years is absolutely incredible. i'm happy and excited for you, but i do lament as to what we are left with? not to say that next person beyond you won't be as great, but there is something special that you brought, a product of your personality, a very delicate, but firm touch. you are very thoughtful and very insightful and personable and easy to work with and you led a tremendous team, tremendous team and you have helped to make san francisco that much better and more aggressive in protecting the working environment for communities of color, as well as just working-class people. i just wanted to lend my voice to say thank you to you and let you know how grateful am. thank you. >> thank you, supervisor cohen. supervisor wiener. >> thank you, madam president. i want to also join the chorous saying what a pleasure it has been to work with you. i think sometimes much to the chagrin of my staff, we have done a lot of prevailing wage legislation, even though it's incredibly important legislation, it's unbelievable hard and complicated and you are always on the verge of jurisdictional dispute between unions it's just really hard pieces of legislation to navigate, even if they seem simple i going in. you have helped to make it a lot easier. we have always been able to rely on to you give us information and guidance and the history to make sure that we have that context. this legislative work around prevailing wage is so incredibly important to support our middle-class and that people have living wage jobs and are able to succeed. so i just want to thank you for helping us and our office through difficult pieces of legislation, but also for your support for working people and we're going to miss you. >> thank you. with that, donna, you have the microphone. >> thank you so much, supervisors. i feel humbled and honored. i would like to ask, if i may, if the staff people former and past, who are here there olse please stand with me. [ applause ] i want to express my heartfelt thanks to three mayors, mayor willie brown, mr. gavin newsom and mayor ed lee for having the confidence in me and giving me this opportunity to serve. i want to thank city administrator naomi kelly and her team for their support and guidance. city attorney dennis herrera and deputis for their sound advice and our community collaborators and friends and the dedicated and talented staff at olse. amany of you know and has been mentioned today olse was create by ordinance in 2001. with the vision of stan smith, who is here with us today. >> hey stan ! [ applause ] we were created to enforce one law, which was prevailing wage on the city's public works construction contracts. and i have kind of seen it since then, coming from construction, like building a high-rise. in 2003, the voters approved one of the first in the nation's minimum wage ordinances. the living wage ordinances were moved into our shop. the sweat-free ordinance was passed by the board in 2006. the voters passed the first in the country paid sick-leave ordinance. you passed the health care security ordinance. followed by the family-friendly workplace ordinance, fair chance ordinance and retailer workers bill of rights and not to mention those that are in committee just this week. i think we have got a couple more. with each new law, we have done our best to turn your progressive vision of workplace justice into reality. and to make these laws meaningful in the everyday lives of workers in san francisco. we have uncovered $10 million plus another $5 million where we collaborated with the labor commission's and these cases involved san francisco's most vulnerable workers, oven non-english [spa-erbz/] and work in the nurd ground economy paid in cash at less than the minimum wage often work long hours without overtime pay, often under the threat of deportation if they complain. i think back on our hard-fought victories when we got proof it was the employer who called i.c.e. only the husband of a claimant and do stop them from selling off or hiding their assets. the great organizings done by the filipino community center that led to recovery of over $1 million for workers in residential care home cases and uplifting work of the chinese progressive association, with restaurant workers, including the case where workers were awared back wages. as you know, san francisco was the first city in the country to require employers to provide paid sick-leave and you know what? the sky didn't fall. and now over 22 cities and five states have their own paid sick-leave ordinances modeled on ours. it's been an honor for me to testify before other jurisdictions about our experiences implementing san francisco's law and our conclusion that paid sick-leave can be easily enforced, is good for workers, good for employer and good public policy. one of the boldest pieces of legislation, which with stood [speaker not understood] it coefficient part time employees and businesss than the aca. to-date; concluding over 250 compliance reviews initiated by worker complaints that have resulted in health care benefits for over 8 300 workers. i'm also happy to report that nearly 20% of covered employers who submitted and forms to the olse -- said that they changed their hiring practices to complain -- i'm sorry, to comply with the fair chance ordinance. and to provide a fair shot at job opportunities for people with arrest and conviction records. i would be remiss if i didn't also highlight our successes enforcing prevailing wages on the city's public works contracts. we have recovered over $6 million in back wages for construction workers, and over $2 million in penalties to the city's general fund. four contractors have been debared from bidding city contractors and two referred for criminal prosecution n. two of our most memorable cases olse subpoenaed copies of checks from the contractor's bank to prove that they had two sets of books. actual checks used to pay workers and checks shown to the city. and these were contractors who have been done doing public works contracts in san francisco for many years. the record is near and dear to my hart and we have not only recovered some serious monies, but leveled the playing field for law-abiding contractors to successfully bid on city contracts. i'm proud that olse has billion a state and national model for enforcement. we work with the community collaborative to ensure that we're reaching those workers most acted by wage theft. we protect the identity of workers who filed compliants and conduct company-wide audits going back three years. we work hard to educate employers about their obligations, to provide clear guidance and make ourselves available to field questions about san francisco's laws and hold violators auto a cannotable. supervisors, i'm truly honored by your kind words, but please know this commendation is real will the not for me, but for the entire staff of the olse. they are the ones on the front oflines, they show up at restaurants to interview workers at 10 -p.m. when the time sheets show that nobody works after 9:00 p.m. they do home visits it find workers who may have been underpaid in order to hear their stories. they speak to workers in their native languages to make them feel comfortable and earn their trust. they perform audits on their computers until their necks and shoulders ache and spend week on thes phones answering employer's questions each year when the annual reporting forms become due. they hound employers when their payments are late. they are respectful with employees and maintain a positive attitude when they hear excuses about what happened to the missing pay records, et cetera. i am indebted to all of them for any successes i have achieve in my time here. thank you. [ applause ] >> secretary-treasurer -- -- they [speaker not understood] i want to thank her publicly for all the work she has done at the building trades. [ applause ] again congratulations donna and thank you for all your hard work for the city and county of san francisco. [ applause ] all right, colleagues, we have one more commendation. just one more. later today, we will vote on my legislation to establish the san francisco homicide reward fund for unsolved murders in our city. this reward fund encourages witnesss to come forward. it puts those responsible behind bars, and it gives solace for those who lost loved ones. right now i want to recognize the importance of preventing these unfortunate and untimely deaths in the first place. and as a result of a lot of hard work, i want to basically bring forward a woman who i have known as long as i have remember, ms. maddie scott. please come forward. a fierce leader to prevent gun violence here in our city. ms. scott. [ applause ] maddie scott is the president of the brady campaign to prevent gun violence, the san francisco chapter. she is also executive director of healing for her families and our nation, and she is chapter leader of the san francisco mothers in charge. and she is the founder of the healing circle, which has done so much to uplift so many members of our community, who have lost loved ones. but more importantly, maddie is a mother, a mother who lost her son to gun violence, a mother who turned her grief and her pain into meaningful action, a mother who is giving a voice to the victims of this sad epidemic in our community. she has organized gun buybacks in city hall with united players, to take hundreds of guns off the streets. she has also worked with the board of education to passes a resolution calleding for the school district to support gun control policies and communicate information about gun buyback events and gun safety practices with families. and expand upon lessons in the classroom, around violence-prevention. every year on the anniversary of the sandy hook elementary school oshooting in connecticut, she works with other organizations in the city to raise awareness by gun violence and to remember the lives that we have lost over the years to gun violence. she also organizes during mother's day, when she bring those mothers together for healing, for prayer, for support, for love, for comfort. this is hard work. this is emotional work. and maddie is doing this work with grace and zeal. she is a tireless self-less leader, and i am proud to honor her today for always being on the frontlines, every time there is, sadly, a loss of life in our community. maddie is the first person who i call and often times the first person there with the mother and the family, praying, supporting, and encouraging, lifting them up. as i had said before, unfortunately in this chamber about the fact that in our community, we have experienced far too much loss to gun violence. and sometimes we get so caught up in our grief, that we forget as sean richard would say, brothers against guns, we forget to honor the living. we forget to honor those who continue to support us, those who continue to lift us up. and today, for your love, for your courage, for your inspiration, for all that you continue to do, and have done for over 20 years in our community, ms. maddie scott on behalf of the city and county of san francisco, we commend you. [ applause ] with that, i would like to recognize my colleagues, who would like to say a few words as well. supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much. good afternoon, maddie scott. >> good afternoon. >> i think this commendation is long overdue. you have been a tremendous leader of helping mothers who have lost their children and who are grieving, helping them heal. i admire you, and i have a tremendous amount of respect for you and the work that you have done and will continue to do. we haven't seen eye-to-eye all the time, but i think that is normal. i think there is certainly room in the community to embrace you and to uplift you and to celebrate you. the work that you do, i find that most people don't want to do, because that is the hard work. it's hard to console a grieving mother after the funeral has come and gone. six months, a year after, and to help build not only the community, but families and help them put their lives back together. there is a saying that sometimes, even the healers need to be healed, and we recognize you as a healer in our community and hopefully you will find some solace and some healing aspect into this commendation that we're presenting to you today. it's a beautiful honor. you are of a beautiful person, a beautiful human being with a heart of gold and i'm so grateful to know you, and to support your work. and i also want to recognize the legions of other women who may not stand in this chamber today, but they stand with you. and you are often the strength and the spine, the backbone when many people don't have the courage to stand up for themselves. so for you and your team of volunteers, i just want to say thank you. it mean as great deal to have you be a part of this work. and i know it's not easy. i know it's not easy. i know you wear the pain on your sleeve every day, but we wanted to recognize you and uplift you and give voice to the work that you are doing and the work that will you will do continue to do and we thank you. [ applause ] . >> supervisor campos >> thank you, i want to thank you for the recognition of ms. scott and i'm simply going to say that the think the city and county of san francisco has a great deal of gratitude and owes you a great deal of debt, not only to you, but to the mothers of victims of violence, who remind us everyday to do something about this crisis. i'm a better person, a better legislator because of the fact that i have gotten to know you and so many of the other mothers. i just want to thank you for the dignity, the grace and the class with which you approach this very difficult subject. greatly, greatly deserved. god bless. >> thank you, supervisor campos. supervisor kim. >> ms. scott, it was really great that we as a board can honor you today for over decades' of work for those families who have experienced violence in their lives. i first met you in 2005, when we worked on proportion a. >> yes. >> a set a-side to invest in violence preventing in our city, after we had experienced a high of 96 homicides in the previous years. this was the community response saying enough is enough. we actually need to put our money where our mouths are, and actually invest in programs that will systematically counter the violence we're experiencing in our communities. even when that violence is isolated in certain neighborhoodss, it impacts everyone in san francisco. but not everyone is able to give it voice, because it's actually one of the most difficult areas to work in the arena of public service. it's emotionally exhausting, and drawing, and for those who continue to do that everyday and to reexperience the trauma and emotional loss with all of the mothers and families, when it's not necessarily your own family is a tremendous service, and also sacrifice on behalf of our community. so thank you for doing this work as long as you have. it is not easy to do, but it is so needed >> thank you for continuing to be a voice around this issue. thank you. >> thank you. supervisor avalos. >> thank you. ms. scott it's been ten years since i have known you and worked with you. you were part of helping to draft violence prevention set aside that we passed at the board of supervisors 2006, before i was on the board. actually i think it was the only set aside that supervisor peskin supported was that one. so that wasn't easy to get his moment no. >> but i think the exampleful of the bleeding that has been going on in our communitis and in yours in particular. in '95 we had scores of homicides in the western edition and '96 again and really showed that we needed to do something. the answer wasn't -- we wanted to have effective law enforcement, but the answer wasn't more police officers, but really trying to get at the root causes. part of it, as well as the mental health services and mutual support that helps familis to bear the heavy burden of losing loved ones to violence. and that is what you brought together and i just want to thank you for giving your heart the way you have. because you have given your heart after your heart was torn by loss and that is giving above and beyond what anyone can give. i know it's taken a toll on you, but you are standing here before us with a packed room that has a lot of love for your, and for your service. so i just want to say thank you and i really appreciate that president breed has brought this commendation before us today to honor you here in this room. >> thank you. ms. scott, again for everything that you continue to do to support others and lift others up we are here to say we lift you up today. we are thankful. we thank god for you for the love and for the inspiration that you continue to provide to so many people. i am just so honored to know you and just grateful for all you have done for the city and county of san francisco.

[ applause ] >> thank you. madam clerk, if could you call items 4 and 5 together. >> item 4s and 5 will two ordinances that pertain to the san francisco super bowl 50, item 4 is an ordinance to amend the administrative code to be establish a san francisco super bowl 50 impact fund to be used to provide financial support to small businesses specifically impacted by the super bowl-related events. and item 5, ordinance appropriating $100,000 from the general fund reserve to fund the super bowl 50 impact fund in 2015-16. >> supervisor peskin. >> thank you, madam president and colleagues. last week we held a hearing in budget and finance committee with regard to the two ordinances and first ordinance creates super bowl 50 impact fund and second ordinance puts $100,000 into the fund specifically for those individuals that i believe the city has a direct moral responsibility for namely the 116 street artists and the other dpw valid licensees and permitees, be they food cart vendors, shoeshine vendors displaced for a period of up to 24 days where they make their living day in and day out. this offers them really a very small modicum of support of $600 per valid claimant, not to exceed $100,000. item no. 4 also allows for other sources of revenue to the fund, be it contributions from the host committee, should it so willing and national football league should it desire or revenues from the super bowl 50-related events exceed expense as determined by the controller, this board could choose to appropriate additional funds to the fund. but at this point, it's really about showing that san francisco is the city that knows how to take care of our own tenants, those 116th street artists who already lost over eight days to rain, some of whom we heard from in committee, who had very compelling and moving testimony. this $600 is the difference for many of them to be able to pay their rent. some of them in sros and some have come out of homeless and i recommend these ordinances to you and hope you support them. >> thank you supervisor peskin. supervisor cohen. >> thank you, president breed. through the chair, with all due respect, i would like to direct my comments, my questions to supervisor peskin. i wasn't able to listen to the entire testimony last week in the budget committee. but i wanted to ask, how did you come to $100,000? >> supervisor peskin. >> thank you. through the president to supervisor cohen, so we met with tom decainey, who is here from arts commission and met with representatives from the department of public works and we thought it was the lowest amount to give some immediate relief to the universe of people who were directly impacted by the city assists city's action. as far as the castro and fisherman's wharf, who were not our permitees, who did speak to negative financial impacts. if there are sufficient funds we can address those other companies and individuals, but we came to that after discussions with the art commission after the universe of street artists who have been our permitees and worked there for decades and that is how we came to that figure. >> thank you. you talked about looking at the universe of permitees. how did you identify this universe? and how do we honor those that were adversely affected and not and weed out those who are not really in the area? >> right. >> there are 116 street artist stalls under the arts commission street artist program in that location. and we can hear from tom decainey, but in meeting with the arts commission, they know who those individuals are under the program. any application that is submitted would be reviewed by the arts commission and the controller's office. i want to thank ben rosenfield for being willing to administer this program. as to the dpw licensees and permitees, those were numbers that were finished to us by the department of public works. >> supervisor peskin, i think it's a really good idea and i will be supporting items 4 and 56789 thank you for answering my questions. >> thank you supervisor. >> supervisor wiener. >> thank you madam president. so we had a long discussion about this in committee and supervisor peskin made some amendments that narrowed the scope in terms of who would be eligible for these funds? and it is -- i think it's a challenging issue in a lot of ways in terms of -- in terms of how to approve this kind of issue. of course this could have been negotiated as part of the host committee agreement n terms of compensation for specific merchants being displaced. my concern and why i will not be able to support this legislation and appropriation today is that it does really narrow down to one class of merchants. and supervisor peskin was very transparent in terms of his amendments. -- -- merchants in the castro were negatively impacted during the f market and original legislation would have allowed broader access. amendments in committee really narrow it down and give full priority to the vendors at justice herman plaza and if they all submit for the $600 and presumably that accounts for more than $100,000 and there would be no access for other merchants. while i completely understand and respect the thinking behind that, i'm not in any way critical of the motives or the tactics of the author, i do -- it does leave me feeling uneasy about the legislation. particularly given that i have a particular set of merchants in my district, who weren't theoretically impacted, who literally had a major tourist muni line, f market cutoff and all saw a noticacle drop in business over the course of the super bowl period. so i will not be supporting this legislation today. >> thank you, supervisor wiener. supervisor tang. >> thank you. so as i said in budget committee, i fully understand the difficulties that the street artists faced and highly respect them and since i was younger did my best to support them as well. i had asked the arts commission at budget committee, what was done before the event occurred and what sort of outreach happened? and i'm wondering for the purposes of full boards meeting and i see the director here if you could shed light on the outreach down prior to the event to ensure as many people as possible were not displaced. >> as i reported at last week's budget and finance committee, the arts commission first discussed the potential impacts of super bowl 50 on the street artists' stalls in justin herman plaza november 20, 2014 and the commissions discussed the potential impact of the super bowl dates in january that would potentially displace the artists' stalls. we were still at that time negotiating alternative spaces with the super bowl host committee. in the end we were able to allocate ten now additional spaces near super bowl city, not directly within the confines of city. but between super bowl city and the nfl experience along market street. on january 4th, the arts commission sent a preliminario it all community street artist licensing-holders that during that period license holders not be able to sell between stuart and drum streets and notified that they could apply for the ten additional faces. by legislation the programrior requires a daily lottery. so no artist is guaranteed a daily location and they show up to three different lotteris in the city run by volunteers to draw their spaces for the day. that ensures diversity of opportunities for artists, on any given day, to access those prime locations throughout the city, as well as those located in justin herman plaza. it would enable artists to participate in super bowl week in the additional foot traffic and those spaces between 3th and 4th street in marked and addition to the approxiate to the 100 spaces between 1st and 5th street on market. >> in terms of this fund, i don't know if this question would be directed to the author, or to you, but administering the funds, what if someone for example was given the option of going to the alternative spaces, but on their only decided not to. would they qualify for the funding? >> we currently surveyed our street artists for those who could, approximately 150 respondent and doing other data collection to determine which street artists would occupy a space in justin herman plaza and still working to finalize the most appropriate, fair and transparent way to administer the fund, but imagine we would consider applications from street artist and our advisory panel or street arts committee of the commission would review those claims to award an allocation as deemed appropriate based on the board's designation. >> okay. thank you. there are a couple of outstanding issues for me. one is that perhaps another underlying issue we could tackle another time, but just the fact there is no kind of grapes of wrathed guaranteed space for the street artists and they have to go through a lottery. so it's difficult to say it was solely because of the super bowl event or the lottery system. secondly, we haven't had the report from the controller's office about the economic generation this event -- i think some of us anticipate there was economic generation from the super bowl festivities and what it means to the city's bottom-line. lastly, my preference is that we work to address these issues before the event had occurred, and so i know there may be some disagreement about that, but that is just how i feel, that we should make sure to take care of the street artists, make it as part of the negotiations, when the events were coming to san francisco. so at this time, i don't feel comfortable supporting those two items. but i hope that in the future, we can sort out things before hand to prevent the displacement of the street artist s. >> thank you, supervisor tang >> supervisor yee. >> thank you, president breed. i agree with supervisor tang we should have taken care of this beforehand, like a lot of things we're supposed to be doing and the fact is that we didn't take care of it. i don't think we should walk away from it, personally. i just want to say for the audience that is listening that didn't listen to the budget committee, that we really only talking $600 per person. we're not talking, like, somebody is going to get rich over this. so this $600 something means a lot of these street artists. it could be half their rent. and we need to just support them for all of san francisco. >> supervisor peskin. >> thank you, i would like to address the statements of supervisor tang. that the board should have anticipated and the mayor's office should have anticipated and department should have anticipated the impacts to our own tenant, as well as impacts to businesss in the area. the fact that they were not anticipated, the fact that this body did not require some payments to individuals who have been displaced and historically when displaced by films have been. the reality is when there is an oversight or if i can be more frank, a mistake, it's not too late for us to fix it now. in an environment where the arts and artists and small businesses are finding it so difficult to survive, much less thrive in san francisco. this $600 is a symbolic payment. many of them lost many, many more. have you seen the emails that we have all gotten in last several days, much more than $600 and one individual sent us an email $600 was an insult for what she had lost in those days. i think it shows that this city cares, at least symbolically, it shows that we care. and if for no other reason, please vote for items 4 and 5 for those reasons. >> thank you, supervisor peskin. [ applause ] >> roll-call vote. >> on item 4s and 5, supervisor breed? >> aye. >> breed aye. supervisor campos? >> aye. >> campos aye. >> supervisor cohen? >> aye. >> cohen aye. >> supervisor kim? >> aye. >> kim aye. >> supervisor mar? >> aye. >> mar aye. >> supervisor peskin? >> aye. >> peskin aye. >> supervisor tang. >> no tang no. >> supervisor wiener. >> wiener no. >> supervisor yee. >> yee. >> supervisor avalos >> aye. >> avalos aye. >> [a-euts/] ayes and two nos with supervisors tang and wiener in the dissent. >> ordinances passs on the first reading.

[ gavel ] >> next item, please. >> item 14, ordinance to amend the administrative code to establish the san francisco homicide reward fund. x president breed. >> thank you, colleagues, i'll be brief, but i know we have a number of members of audience who have been waiting for this item to pass. this legislation creates a permanent city reward fund to compensate those who provide information leading to an arrest and conviction in an unsolved murder case in san francisco. there past six years, san francisco has averaged about 50 homicides per year, each one is tragic, each one is a loss of a son, a sister, a father, or a friend. and each one should have never happened and each one deserves our ever effort to bring justice. the city has at times offered rewards in specific cases, but it's done so on an ad hoc basis and there is no specific way or process determining how this should be done? my legislation creates a perm permanent rewards up to $250,000 to help solve and prosecute these unsolved murder cases. and this legislation was brought about from the persistence of mothers who continue to ask for support for their children. it is limited to cases that have gone unsolved -- excuse me, in which the police have exhausted all levels of their investigation, and which the chief of police has determined that public assistance and a reward is necessary. the recipient of the reward cannot have been involved in the crime. and the fund can also accept donations, all in all it requires a small a. taxpayer money, because thankfully we're talking about a small number of cases, but in those cases this reward can make a world of difference and in those cases we should be doing everything we can. i want to thank the police department for their assistance, our deputy city attorney, and i want to thank the mothers who continue to hold us accountable. thank you to paulette and thank you to sala and thank to ms. maddie scott and carolota and sean richards on the frontlines with brothers against guns and thank my co-sponsors supervisor cohen and supervisor peskin and supervisor yee and with that, colleagues, i ask for your support. >> colleagues any other comments? supervisor cohen? >> thank you.thank you, president breed, for bringing this piece of legislation. i think it's abeen a long time and we have had paulest brown in the chambers for the six years that i have been on the board and the five you have been here, asking for and pleaing for this type of reward to happen. i am glad that we have the courage to do that and colleagues i'm anticipating unanimous support in this vote. i want to commend and recognize prose breed for her leadership in bringing an important measure to our attention, and giving it voice to those folks that, again, don't have a voice and that are not in the chamber advocating on their own behalf. >> thank you, supervisor cohen. thank you again, colleagues. can we take this item same house, same call? without objection the ordinance passes unanimously on first reading [ applause ] managemented clerk, can you please call the next item. >> item 15 is an ordinance to amend the public works code to clarify that prohibited graffiti extends to all public property including all city assets, and to establish expedited notice and hearing procedures, create administrative penalties for an offending party and renumber code sections and affirming the planning department's ceqa determination. >> supervisor peskin. >> thank you, madam president and colleagues. this is legislation that would help abate the problem of gorilla corporate graffiti marketing apparently folks have not gotten the message out there whether it's nbc, universal, last night it -- i was out with puc enforcement crew and there is more of this stuff on the sidewalks of district 3. so we really need this kind of legislation. i want to thank the city attorney for his collaboration, the deputy city attorney for drafting it. also i was approached by the public utilities commission last week with respect to a public education campaign that they want to implement that uses sidewalk logos to dissuade the public from dumping oil and chemicals into our sewer. the intent is to identify a range of city-sanctioned exemptions from provide more clarity with respect to defining for the general public what street marking is acceptable and what is not? so in light of this, i offer the following non-substantive amendment on page 4, line 20: which would add a subsection 3 to read "or any painting or marking that a city department makes in the course of its official duties or as part of a public education campaign, or subsection 4, any painting or marking required for compliance with any local, state, or federal law." so i would like to make that motion to amend the subject ordinance. >> supervisor peskin has made a motion to amend, seconded by supervisor cohen. colleagues can we take that without objection?

around the immediate bay, and then summer warmth kicks in on wednesday. a land breeze means the coast equally as warm and i do think a lot of spots may get very close to 90. here's the accuweather

>> reporter: yeah. you know, they are talking about if a tenant has to get moved out for a higher paying tenant, that tenant that's getting displaced might get a couple of months of free rent, security deposit, possibly even a cash stipend for the elderly and disabled. >> thank you. >>> time for traffic and weather. >> we have been so excited about our warriors so we had another big game in town last night. it was the san jose sharks hosting the kings. they lost. this is the shark tank in san jose. that will be the scene of tomorrow night's action when the puck drops at 7:35. who wants to go? >> me! >> i want tickets! >> let's all go. high clouds over san jose right now 58 degrees. dropped to 47 in santa rosa. san francisco slow to cool at 60 after a record tying event of 83 degrees. today we are bringing the numbers down. you will feel the difference but not bad. sunnyvale at 82. 83 in willow glen. east bay numbers a bit of a breeze allergies a concern. up to 84 in p-town. 83 in pittsburg. north bay numbers stacking up from 67 in stinson beach a little blustery late day otherwise low 80s in novato. and upstream we go to cloverdale and clearlake. allergy report at 18 minutes after the hour. >>> in san francisco for traffic, here's a look at conditions expect delays as you work your way through there at least work around it this morning it will be there until 6:00. golden gate bridge not bad. it's been a nice ride out of marin so far on this tuesday morning. we haven't seen any troubles or delays south 101/580 toward san francisco. that's been about 14 minutes for your drive time. still easy conditions on the bay bridge out of oakland into san francisco. that early-morning roadwork they had near yerba buena island and fremont has been wrapped up. traffic should be okay into san francisco. more traffic coming up. >>> happening today gun safety takes center stage in sacramento. a new bill that would prohibit high capacity magazines is part of the discussion. jackie ward is in our newsroom with the details about the gun laws on the table. >> reporter: >>> reporter: this is one of several gun measures on today's agenda. one of the rifles used in the san bernardino shoot had gone a 30-round magazine and the gun that killed kate steinle had previously been reported stolen. senate bill 1446 would prohibit possession of any ammo-holding device for an assault style weapon that holds more than 10 rounds. another bill would require firearm owners to report their gun lost or stolen within five days of realizing it. those against the proposal like the firearms policy coalition say this would, quote, devastate the gun owning community. they are saying these suggested restrictions are gun maggette done and they are tried of being treated like second class citizens. jackie ward, kpix 5. >>> new this morning, police this is san jose spent the night the scene of a homicide, reported about 11 p.m. on sandpoint drive. one victim was found at the scene when police arrived he was dead before an ambulance could arrive. san jose police are looking for leads about the suspect. >>> a suspect is in custody in connection with the disappearance of a 2-year-old boy in monterey county. soledad police say officers arrested carmen maldonado yesterday at a remote farmhouse south of salinas valley. police say maldonado stole a car left running in a driveway last week with 2-year-old jacob jesus vargas in the back seat. hours later the car was found abandoned near a barn. the boy was safe. maldonado is expected to face charges of attempted murder, kidnapping and auto theft. >>> the chancellor of uc-davis has issued an apology for what she calls highly publicized missteps in the school's efforts to improve its image. linda katehi says she hired online image consultants to deal with a 2011 incident in which campus police pepper sprayed student protestors. she said it was to ensure online searches showed the university in a good light. >>> the polls are open in new york. we turn to washington insider marc sandalow for more. what should we be looking for? >> reporter: only democrats vote on the democrat side and republicans for republicans. that's good news for hillary clinton. the main thing to watch for are delegate totals. just like california, this is one of those states not winner- take-all. it's winner-take-all per congressional district which means it will be complex to figure out who ends up with the most delegates. hillary clinton if the polls are right should end up somewhere about 400 delegates short of the nomination after the voting today. that would put her on the glide path to perhaps cinch the nomination. california votes june 7. donald trump is very, very -- it's delegate by delegate for him. he needs to win new york and needs to win big in future states and the word this morning is that there's been a shake-up in the trump campaign that this is inside baseball but essentially trump has put in power some old party insiders who can help steer him to that delegate total perhaps having his eyes not so much on capturing the imagination of political outsiders right now but winning the hearts of political insiders who might push him over the top. >> we have seen the momentum shift a bit on both side recently. what would a sanders or cruz upset mean? >> reporter: if bernie sanders beats hillary clinton, it would certainly change momentum in the sense that he would be finally winning a big state with a number of minority voters, something he hasn't been able to do in the past. but bernie sanders is so far down in the delegate count he would need to win in new york, next week in pennsylvania and maryland and then have a huge win in california to even catch up to hillary clinton in delegates. on the other side, if ted cruz were to win the new york primary today, it would be the biggest upset in modern political history. he is down by 30 points in the polls. he doesn't have to win to be victorious. if he captures a third of the delegates in new york he may do enough to keep trump from clinching the nomination. >> okay. that's the primary. turning to the supreme court now, what's the read in washington on monday's case regarding the president's immigration plan? >> so this immigration plan is of great importance in california particularly in the bay area. there's almost 200,000 immigrants in the bay area who will be fearful of the deportation if the court rules against the obama administration. the thinking here in washington, he needs five justices to vote for the obama plan. four justices is about all the obama plan likely got in court yesterday. but there's thought that on the process, does the state of texas, which is the one that brought the lawsuit, have the standing to bring the suit? did they file the proper procedures? a couple of justices maybe even the chief justice roberts might side with obama. this is one of those cliffhangers and whether you realize it or not, everyone in the bay area knows somebody or at least knows somebody who knows somebody who will be directly affected by this decision. thank you, marc sandalow in washington, dc. >>> time now 5:10. deadly flooding in texas shuts down schools and forces thousands of rescues. 240 gallons of water have a great day. fallen [ sic ] and we'll take you there next. >> hear next from the bay area student who says he wants an apology from southwest airlines. >> good morning from our kpix 5 weather center. do you find yourself sneezing and wheezing?

on something fun or fleeting. but there's a better way. cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger reports. why don't you like tax refunds so much? >> reporter: maybe you think of it as found money. i like to think of it as the return of a year-long interest- free loan that you just made to uncle sam. how about adjusting your withholdings so you don't get a refund next year? i know that refund is burning a hole in your pocket but your first priority is to replenish your emergency reserve fund. we are trying to keep 6 to 12 months of living expenses in a safe place like checking, savings or cd.

thank you director. seeing none we will proceed to the next item please. >> yes item 4 is general public comment and there is a request. >> yes. we have one general public comment, ronnie robinson please. >> i believe he's outside speaking to mr. pictins. yes. >> mr. robinson. >> i will put three minutes on the timer and when it beeps -- >> thank you very much. my name is ronnie robinson and i just spoke with rolan regarding my letter they know you're all aware of and he made -- he responds and he's going to reply to it immediately. thank you. >> thank you. >> that is the only request i received. >> okay. thank you very much. >> so we move on to item 5 which is the report back from the finance and planning committee. >> okay. commissioner. >> good afternoon commissioners. the finance and planning committee met earlier today to approve quite a few contracts and also the contract reports that's been added to the consent calendar. out of that i want to point the commissioners' attention to one of the contracts that was awarded to dr. kennedy for -- >> ken harding. >> yeah. ken harding for the cultural humility training and the actual amount of the two year contract should be $500,000 but because we had just listed that as $250,000 we decided that we would still go ahead and add that to the consent calendar, and later on staff will actually adjust the amount to $500,000 for two years, so you know at least we know this way we won't be stalling, you know, the contract from being executed and implemented, and we also have a great presentations about our structures and process of accessing -- like community based organizations' performance including how contracts were being written, planned and how our rfps and rfqs are going out so this is the beginning of a multi-sessions presentation to help us understand how, you know, like contract monitoring, and quality improvement are being made to these organizations, so there's also the discussions because today's presentations will focus on the non-profit agencies and because we also do business with for profit agencies we want to be able to -- like if there's any difference in terms of how we -- how we develop contracts and also you know how we manage those contracts, so if people are interested in that subject i think we will have another presentation in the finance and planning committee meeting. any questions commissioners? >> no. i just want to add that i think it's impressive how the team at the department has begun to attack the contract -- inefficiencies in contracts in a rigorous careful step wise function and i think you never get results quickly on things like this, but over time i think we're going to see a lot of it, so i appreciate your leadership on that. >> thank you. any further comments on the finance committee report? if not then we will move on to our next item please. >> yes, item 6 is the consent calendar. if i can summarize what commissioner chung just said. the last item is a contract with ken harding. if you approve the consent calendar you're approving a contract for $250,000 and dph staff will come back with a contract revision later this year to change the term and the amount but today you're approving if you do so the contract for $250,000. >> okay. thank you. so it's before us as a consent calendar if any member wishes to take any item off of the consent calendar otherwise we're prepared for the vote. all those in favor of the consent calendar please say aye. >> aye. >> all those opposed? the consent calendar has been adopted unanimously. >> thank you commissioners. item 7 is a resolution recommending that the board of supervisors accept the shares of common shock of vizient inc. corporated distributed by university health consortium with uhc mergerace with vha incorporated. . >> good afternoon commissioners. greg whiter chief financial officer. so the resolution before you is a step that we're are requesting to enter into related to our use of a group purchasing organization. as you know the department has under the administrative code and has historically used the university health consortium as its group purchasing organization that allows us to join with other providers to leverage purchasing power for medical equipment and supplies. we use that heavily at both of our hospitals. we're notified about a year ago that uhc had merged with another organization and that the merged entity will be named vizient and that will continue to operate as the group purchasing organization for the former uhc members. under that merger the corporate structure that will be in place has changed. in the past under uhc we were members of the organization and we received rebates based on the volume of purchases that we made through the uhc contracts. under the new corporate structure that will be changed, and it will actually go to on owned organization where shares in vizient, the new organization, will be distributed to former uhc members based on the volume of purchasing that they had made through the former organization. so these are not shares that are tradeable on the market. it's a closely held corporation. that could change at some point in the future. if the board were to -- take an action to change the corporate structure but it's essentially a way to accept the shares in vizient. they would be held in trust by the treasurer's office. the benefit of it it would give as a shareholder the ability to weigh in on certain actions or changes to the operating policies of the vizient organization. there really is no down side to doing it. it's a relatively unusual structure for the city to participate in, but we vetted it, the process with the treasurer-tax-collector and the city attorney's office so we think it's just something that we have to do without down side. it's coming on a little bit of a rush because vizient gave uhc members a deadline to accept these shares so we're trying to move it forward through the board of supervisors. we learned late that we needed commission approval to do this so we made it a last minute addition to the agenda today planning take it to the board of supervisors tomorrow. i am happy to answer questions to the extent i can if you have them and the city attorney's office is here as well. >> any sense of how much value there is here? >> i can ask arnoldo if he has a sense of the value in terms of achievable value. there really is none because they're not tradeable. there is no way to cash in on that value. it's simply an ownership stake unless the board of vizient makes a change in how they want to redeem the value of the shares. it's just something that we hold that gives us an ownership stake and doesn't have a liquid value to it. >> so how do you write the letter that says for tax purposes, what is the value of this? do you know the answer? i will ask the city attorney to try that one. >> i am from the city attorney's office. commssioner singer so the par value is basically a dollar per share. there is no actual cash value to the city unless the board of vizient decides to -- votes to redeem. the current estimated value per share is about $320 per share. because there is no actual cash value there's really -- >> how many shares do we have? >> so san francisco general is receiving around 1700 shares. laguna honda is receiving around 1100 shares. the final number hasn't been determined but it will be added to the joinder and agreement. >> could be a lot of money. i mean we will have to wait. >> right. the current estimated value -- at whatever point and time vizient -- the board of vizient decides to redeem any of these shares for the reasons that are available the value could be more, could be less, depending on -- since this is a private corporation this is just an estimated value based on their assets and all. >> while you're here you know you have a recitation of us accepting all of these including all these attachments and exhibits and everything which i am assuming that the city attorney has actually looked at are just part of the doing business and doesn't put any of us into a liability position. >> correct. actually it's recommending that the board of supervisors accept, so the resolution in front of you today is recommending -- >> i understand that. but it's recommending all of these things here are being approved by the board, and we need to be assured by you that it really is okay because -- >> correct. >> -- all of these things are in legal language. >> exactly. >> doesn't exactly tell us what it does. >> right, yes. that is correct. >> traditionally as common stockholders you have no liability so i think we're probably -- >> right. as a common stock -- we're not getting any preferred stock. it's all common stock and it's a private corporation, so it's a corporation. there isn't a liability to the shareholders and the part of the structure. >> so maybe you could explain that the shares don't really reflect -- we're currently using them as a discount process; right? we purchase our things through there so the shares don't really matter. the same discounts apply. it all works the way it did before. >> actually it's going to change and that's another issue that we're need to discuss with the appropriate individuals. right now there is no membership fee paid up front. the structure allows for whatever rebates the department or the hospitals were eligible for. the amount, the fee amounts were basically deducted from the rebates received on the back end of the new corporate structure which we would have to get into a new agreement once the process changes with vizient. my understanding that vizient will require a payment up front as a membership fee, and the rebates in the back end would be slightly higher, so because you're not deducting those fees from those rebates. >> [inaudible] >> go ahead. >> and just on that point what that would -- excuse me. what that would require is that we would simply in the budget we would just need appropriation authority to actually pay the membership fee so we would have a neutral swat in the budget that is a modification to appropriation. that's our expectation so that the net would be the same for us, but it would be just a difference in how the payments flow from us to vizient versus them getting applied as a rebate to the purchase price of the equipment that we're -- or the materials that we're buying from vizient. >> water is on the way. >> thank you. [laughter] >> thank you. sorry. any further questions? >> i move we accept this. >> okay. >> (inaudible). >> staff recommendation to recommend it to the board of supervisors. >> right. second please. any further discussion or questions at this point? >> i will note there has been no request for public comment. >> okay. thank you. then we're prepared for the vote. all those in favor of the resolution to recommend to the board to approve this please say aye. >> aye. >> all those opposed? and it has been passed unanimously. thank you. >> thank you commissioners. >> item 8 is a vision zero update and you have a resolution that will be introduced today in support of vision zero and automated speed enforement that you will vote on at the next meeting. >> thank you. >> good afternoon commissioners. i am anna vislick with the population health division, and i am in the community health equity branch and copresent with my colleague in environmental health leanna schwartz and the municipal transportation agency katie van gody and here to give you an update -- sorry. thank you. thank you. give you an update on vision zero in san francisco just as a refresher the goal is to reduce -- to eliminate traffic, fatalities in san francisco by 2024. vision started in february 2014 and gave yourself a ten year timeline because it's an ambitious goal with a lot of city agencies and community based organizations at the table. we wanted to highlight where vision zero lives in the health department. it is in the population health division both the lead is out of environmental health, and community health equity and promotion plays a large role. vision zero is the way we manage vision zero is through what we call the five e's and the p. i'm not going to read the entire slide but want to highlight some of the efforts that dph contributes so we co-chair the task task force. megan wier is on maternity leave and we have staff from the municipal transportation agency and can answer any questions that you have but we address vision zero through the 5e's but the one we want to highlight today is the policy initiative because we have a specific request for your support and a resolution to ask for some supporting state change in legislation for automated speed enforement which you will hear about later today. just a summary of progress and just year in 2015 mta completed 30 projects to improve our streets and sidewalks in two years. that is no small feat and we have staff in the audience to answer questions that you have, and also we worked closely with mta on a campaign called "it stops here." you can see a picture here on the side of the bus, and it was a campaign specifically focusing on having drivers yield the right-of-way to pedestrians while crossing the street, and our team in environmental health did an evaluation of that campaign, which you may remember was in the chronicle. there was a 3% increase in driver's behavior yielding to pedestrians and that's a positive change in vision zero that we want to see and our team played a significant role in that but on the policy front the city unified around the idea making automated speed enforement the top policy goal for 2015 and adopted by the mta board and it was adopted by the mayor's office as one of the top policy initiatives and we're here before you today to bring that also forward. lastly our team in environmental health developed this tool called the vision zero zero injury network. this may look familiar. we presented this before, and this is a our road map if you will on how we address vision zero. this is 12% of the street miles in san francisco but well over 70% of all of the fatals and severs and this is the prioritization tool that we use here in this city to address vision zero, so the majority of the streets and sidewalk improvements and enforcement and education would be on these corridors and key intersections where we have a documented problem and i will bring up ms. schwartz and will talk about the data pieces and vision zero. >> thank you anna. another dph lead project for vision zero that we wanted to highlight is the development of a transportation or comprehensive transportation related injury surveillance system so currently san francisco relies solely on police reported injury collision data to make all of our traffic safety decisions, all of the vision zero efforts, but we know that police reported injury collision data is incomplete. not all injury collision data is reported to the police, and so what we have prioritized is linking with police data hospital level data, so as represented in this visual police data would represent this pink circle and hospital record level data would represent the green circle so really the power and strength of merging these two data sources together, which would include trauma registry data from san francisco general hospital, emergency service data and ems data that we increase our capacity to detect traffic injury and it means better decision making from the data and take the data and update our injury network which was shown in the previous slide and make sure we're targeting and allocating our resources to the most dangerous intersections and corridors in the city. as you all know traffic fatalities are the primary metric for measuring progress with vision zero. this chart shows annual fatalities dating back to 2005. you see in san francisco on average we have 30 traffic fatalities every year. as oona mentioned we launched vision zero as a city policy in 2014. we had 31 traffic fatalities. in 2015 we also had 31 traffic fatalities and so far in 2016 we've had seven traffic fatalities. this is through february which is our most current data. while engineering infrastructure changes, streetscape, redesigns and transformations are a key input vision we need to utilize other tools and we haven't seen a reduction in traffic fatalities and why we're seeking your support for automated speed enforement. speed is a huge factor whether victims survive a collision with a motor vehicle. also to note represented by the blue bar is the proportion of pedestrian fatalities and in san francisco about 2/3 of traffic fatalities are suffered by pedestrians, and half of those pedestrians are senior citizens especially vulnerable population and growing population in san francisco. so another key metric for evaluating progress of vision zero is severe traffic injuries and i quickly want to acknowledge our partners the san francisco general hospital the level one trauma center. we have a long standing relationship with the hospital and the trauma team there. we work closely with two trauma surgeons dr. michelle [inaudible] and dr. julian and their team to get the data and prioritize the surveillance system and in an analysis we looked at one year trauma data we found that 515 patients had severe traffic injuries so that means an injury that landed the victim into the hospital for admission 24 hours stay or longer, so that's more than one or two incidents everyday. that is one person suffering a severe injury every 17 hours. among the 515 patients one in five were senior citizens, 28 were children and the average length of hospital stay was six days. this is the number one reason people are visiting our trauma center in san francisco. continuing on among these 515 patients there were 16 that died. half of the patients were pedestrians. as you can see in the pie chart to the right the transportation mode of the patients is shown. over half of these patients were either pedestrians or cyclists who are most vulnerable road users and not only is there a high human cost to the traffic fatalities and injuries there's also an economic cost. over half of these severe traffic injuries or these medical charges were billed to public funds. another important issue that is addressed to vision zero is the issue of equity. among the 515 severely injured patients 70% were male and the chart to the right shows some racial disparities found in the data so as represented with the red bar which is the racial distribution of san francisco using census data you can contrast that with the blue bar which is the racial distribution of the severely injured patients and you see that blacks and historics are disproportionately impacted by traffic injuries in our city. while we accomplished a lot in 2015 we have a lot of work to do. i want to highlight some of these activities that we have coming in 2016. one of these programs is safe streets for seniors which just kicked off two weeks ago. anna is leading that program but why we're here today is seek your endorsement for automated speed enforement. this is a tool that we need to advance vision zero. as you saw with our traffic fatalities slide we haven't had a reduction in traffic fatalities and we need to be utilizing all of the tools available, and that have been proven to be effective, so with that i would like to pass the presentation on to our partner katie from the san francisco municipal transportation agency who will speak more about automated speed enforement. >> thank you. thank you commissioners for having me. my name is katie and with the government affairs division at sfmta. as you noticed from some of our commitments for 2016 there's a common thread which is reducing excessive speeding so we're using the three e's, education and enforcement and engineering to reduce and manage excessive speeding but we're pursuing the tools that we currently don't have, and the tools that i am here to talk about today is automated speed enforement. it's currently not legal in the state of california and we're pursuing legislative changes to state law to authorize its use which is why we're here today. so why are we focusing on speed? speed is the strongest predictor whether a pedestrian or bicyclists hit by a vehicle will walk away from the collision alive. from the graphic the faster the vehicle is going the more likely that collision will result in a severe injury or a fatality, so a pedestrian struck by a vehicle traveling 20 miles an hour has a 90% of surviving while a pedestrian only has a 20% of surviving if that vehicle is going 40 miles per hour and the chances of survival are even worse if you're a senior citizen over the age of 60. the chances of surviving goes down to 8% so fro tekting our vulnerable users such as seniors or small children or you know construction workers is one of our top priorities with this initiative, and so the legislation that we are proposing which restrict automated speed enforement units to areas to senior centers, to school zones, construction zones and then areas along the high injury network. and so speed is an issue in san francisco. looking at fatal traffic collisions in san francisco over five years you can see the leading cause of fatal collisions account for about 25%, and about 20% of all severe injury collisions, so it's more than any other collision factor and we also know it's not captured in this chart, but through some research conducted by our partners at dph that speed is also largely a secondary collision factor in many fatal and severe injury collisions but officers can only check one box in a collision report which is a primary collision factor so it may say you know "violation of a pedestrian right-of-way" but a loolt of spiem times speed is a factor as well so prior to pursuing this policy we looked to see what other cities were doing to manage their speeding problems, and we found that over 140 communities in 14 states across the nation had automated speed enforement programs and these communities realized reductions in speeding including reductions in excessive speeds so vehicles traveling over 10 miles per hour over the speed limit, reductions in average speed, reduction in injury collisions and faitdal collisions, and also interestingly reductions in the amount of violations that were being given over time showing that these drivers were responding to this mechanism and changing their behavior. so just a lot bit about the technology. automated speed enforement can be fixed so on a traffic signal similar to the red light cameras or they can be mobile in a van, and the technology uses two radar beams to measure the speed of the vehicle and if the vehicle is traveling above a predetermined threshold then that unit is triggered and a image of the license plate is taken so we're proposing that threshold be 10 miles an hour over the speed limit so again we're trying to target excessive speeding so if you're going 26 in a 25-mile an hour -- and the speed limit is 25 miles an hour we're not targeting you. we want to reduce excessive speeding because that is what is most dangerous. and we understand that with any new technology or program that there's going to be concerns which is why we're here today to talk about this. we worked with the controller's office last year and they conducted best practice survey at six cities across the united states to learn more about their implementation practices and you know what obstacles they faced when implementing their programs so just learn more about it and make sure that we have all information that we can get to make sure that our program is successful, and so these were just some of the top concerns that we found through our partner cities was you know there's public concern that that automated speed enforement wouldn't have much of an impact but we found from studies, study after study and many studies are required by other authorizing state legislatures to report back on the effectiveness of automated speed enforement and so time after time proven to reduce speeds and severe collisions. also issues related to privacy. you know we're proposing that our system set up to only photograph the license plate so the picture of the face is not seen. also that these photos would only -- or images would be only used for automated speed enforement and for no other reason and then they would be destroyed after a certain amount of time. also revenue -- so this is not about -- it's not about money and so we are proposing that any revenue that we receive from this program would be used to cover the cost of the program and then any additional would be used for traffic safety projects, and you know it would be great if we get this passed through the legislature and then we set up the program and we don't have to issue a single ticket. that would be great because it would show that people aren't speeding on our streets which is our ultimate goal. people have also raised concerns about the technology, and we have proposed certain controls in place including routine calibrations as well as as fairness. you know why people -- why are you targeting me? these cameras aren't targeting anybody. they're targeting vehicles going over a predetermined speed threshold and more objective way to enforce current speed laws, and also i just wanted to touch on some of the warning signs so there would be signs posted before entering a corridor that's enforced by radar and also at main entry points around the jurisdiction so if you're a tourist or visiting from outside city you will be made aware that we use automated speed enforement in the city and not to speed here, and so as i mentioned before it is currently not legal and prohibited in the california vehicle code so we're asking for your support today for a pilot program in san francisco, and it's just really important to show our support to our state delegation. they expressed to us they would like to hear from the local community for support of this program, and we have received about two dozens letters of support and resolutions from local community groups, from the general hospital trauma center as well as government bodies including the board of supervisors and so it's really important for us to have the public health community behind this because it truly is a public health issue as you've seen from the presentation, and we thank you for considering this, and i invite my colleagues up if you have any other questions? >> and again just a reminder commissioners the vote is on the may 3rd meeting not today for the resolution. >> we actually have one public speaker first before we take questions. cathy deluka from walk san francisco. >> i will put three minutes on the timer and then your time is up. >> okay. thank you. i am the policy manager with walk san francisco and first and foremost i am here here today to thank the department of public health and the commissioners for the strong support of vision zero and your work. san francisco department of public health is really leading the nation in terms of getting data that helps push vision zero. i was recently at the vision cities conference in new york city talking to advocates from lots of different cities and they kept talking about how hard it was to get good data on what is happening in the city in terms of traffic crashes and injurieses and i would look at them and i am new to walk san francisco. well, just ask your department of public health. they have all the data that's what they do. "no they don't do that here" so they're scrounging to get the data but we're leading the nation because of your efforts and staff's efforts over the last ten years to find out where collisions are happening and maps of the high injury corridors. the work that lay lanny is doing with this and finding out big the epidemic is of traffic injuries in the city and i want to thank you for leading the way and growing your efforts. i know the staff expanded on the work on vision zero. we urge you continue the expansion into the vision zero work and finally -- i don't know how much time i have left but i urge you to support this res for automated speed enforement and it's a logical idea to go with this and the data and seed is the number one collision factor and we could use the data to precedent injuries and traffic injuries and i urge you to support that and thanks again for your leadership. >> thank you. commissioners questions at this point now to the presenters? commissioner chung. >> first i want to really thank your presentations and also the effort of like looking at how we can tackle this issue. my sister actually almost got hit by a car years ago, and you know -- you know, on the alemany boulevard so that's actually my question and those high injury corridors, a lot of time it's also in residential area, so what would it be like to set up all these automated -- like speed enforcing? >> so the legislation would you know create certain or restrict the use of the technology to certain areas. as i mentioned school zones and senior centers and construction zones and areas that have a high propensity of sever and fatal injury collisions so using the great data from the department of public health and probably based on the high injury network it would be data driven so we would see what corridors had high instances of severe injury and fatal collisions and that alemany -- is alemany on the high injury? >> [inaudible] >> commissioner chung are you asking what the cameras look like in residential areas? >> you knowbecause the area -- >> exactly -- >> input whether they want these cameras. like that's another process. >> [inaudible] >> yeah. i think yeah -- they look pretty similar to the red like camera, running cameras. it's kind of a box on top of the connected to the traffic signals. i don't -- >> instead of a traffic signals because -- >> oh, oh. >> you're going to have these in different -- like different points. >> yeah. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> do you want to use the microphone so that the audience can hear you? >> i imagine the cameras are attached to a pole and the residents would be supportive of that in their community if they do have a high frequency of speeders the. it's in a residential area where children or family members are using the street. i would imagine they would be able to work with the community. i just have seen models of what they look like and i am sure that if esthetics are an issue we would be able to work with the community. >> yeah, i think that's the point because a lot of times it's really not the functionalities of these -- like you know like resources. it's more about how they look in the neighborhood these days, and so i am curious about that. also what is the process? so we have to go to the state legislature for them to pass legislation and do we have to come back to our own legislators to pass something here also? >> yeah. so we would secure an authorror which could be one of the members of our delegation so member chiu, ting, the next senator or it could be someone from a different delegation so we were working closely with the city of san jose who is also interested in doing a pilot program so it could be any one of those member and they would propose it to the state to their state -- to the assembly or the senate depending who introduces it and has to be approved by the governor and we already got the go ahead from the board of supervisors to pass a resolution and this is one of the mayor's top legislative priorities as well, so we're all approved. >> okay. >> it's a state issue at this point. >> i just want that cleared up and know what the process looks like. yeah, thanks. >> yeah. >> i was just going to follow up to ask where has been the opposition? why is it that california and new york have not actually gone into this in terms of legislation already at the state level if it seems so obvious that this is a way to stop pedestrian -- well, just stop any injurys? >> well new york does have automated speed enforement. it took them about ten years to get it, so our opposition is at the state level. the state level unions. one of our biggest opposing organizations right now is the teamsters and the triple a and then there's also large organizations that are concerned about privacy, so it's mostly the state organizations. on the local level everyone has been very supportive. it's more you know getting a bill introduced and then getting it squashed in the first hearing because the teamsters make a phone call, so we're working with the teamsters right now actually. it's been really productive and so we have been hearing what their concerns are and trying to incorporate those. >> my question was similar to yours. what is the substantive reason the unions are against this? >> so with the teamsters they -- so they're concerned about their drivers getting more tickets. >> so the teamsters going 10 miles an hour after the speed limit they're concerned they would get then get more tickets? >> it doesn't make sense to me. >> i'm not saying it makes sense but i am curious. >> yeah. >> if there's something to do with the data where someone was involved with the teamsters got injured that would be useful too. >> yeah. we asked sfpd for information to see if the commercial drivers get speeding tickets and they weren't allowed -- they weren't able to provide that information. >> right. >> yeah. >> well, keep up the good work. >> did you say that the automobile -- the triple a was against it also whereas they're out there trying to promote safety? i mean do they have logic -- what i am looking also within our resolution we could help address some of the issues if we have the data to back up what it is, so unless you can give us something substantial. i mean why would the triple a then say in appropriate places we should be able to slow down the speed when they seem to have a campaign to have safe driving? >> [inaudible] >> and insurance companies , right. >> yeah, yeah. you would think they want their drivers to not get in collisions so we have -- it boggled my mind as well why they're opposed to it. it doesn't make sense intuitively but i think they're trying to represent the driver. the same thing with the teamsters and represent the members of the unions and not get more tickets for the drivers, and so i can think about some other language that we might be able to put in the resolution. >> that's what i am thinking because at least address that as a -- you know, more strongly as a safety issue. >> we can certainly work with you on language to incorporate that at the next reading. one point we would like to make that we didn't say in the presentation these tickets would be decriminalized. if it's issued by the cameras so it's not a point on the license. this is the equivalent of a parking ticket and that -- >> that helps with the teamsters because they're commercial and professional drivers so if they get a point on the record it's not one point and it's 1.5 and puts them at a higher risk of losing their commercial license so that's another reason and we addressed that with no points on the record and also one of the requests was not allowing these cameras on freeways and so we're fine with that because it doesn't really impact us and also they wanted to ensure that employees were running the system, and not vendors, and so that's what our plan was anyways, so just kind of working with them on those issues. >> they only should be on holidays and evening too. >> uh-huh. >> perhaps one of the things you have been saying and whereas we may be should have it within the whereases and think of it and one of the first questions in my mind too is there another way to get another point on our tickets and just like sometimes the stop light cameras are not functioning correctly and so forth. i could understand some of that. maybe we could put something to help in indicate what the camera is used for is to discourage speeding for that reason that we're not -- that it is not -- you know, it's not a criminal offense or anything. you're decriminalizing it, something like that, so those arguments fair people would look like and okay that takes away my problem. i think there is the issue and a ttputting up these big things on the sidewalks and picturing in front of my house and sidewalk and even though it's the intersection and i don't want it blocking my sidewalk. i think that was part of -- the summary action in the neighborhoods about that, but i do think looking at how we could strength know our whereas's to help argue the point. i mean it's clear from at least the four of us -- well, i haven't heard from the other commissioner yet. >> one thing that is incumbent upon us at the health department like in the fourth whereas i think that data is not significant and if it is we need to say that and if not we need to say that and we assert certain things that are data driven but the end are small in the data that you presented to us. >> and the fourth whereas and the department of public health of public injuries -- that one or the fifth? >> that one, the fourth. i think whenever you assert data our case gets stronger and significant and i know everything thomas does when he shows us studies relies on that kind of rigor. >> but that would be some of the specifics that would help i think as people are reading this and reading it as a support document that we would like to insert as much as possible what is actually going to help answer in the public's mind what they may questioning about this. commissioner. >> yeah, what was relevant for me is san francisco general and the number of cases and motor vehicle related. i think it's a significant number and from our county or not i don't think it matters. in regards to the specific resolution i feel this is very supportable from a health perspective. as a driver you have different thoughts but from a health perspective anything that improves lives and reducing trauma i think this is supportable. i actually have another question i would like to ask if you can give me a larger framework and based on my observation and some of the drivers that i know to come and love. it's gotten harder to drive in san francisco. some people feel it's more dangerous to drive in san francisco because of different notations on the streets and the signage and things. it's also probably not at the threshold yet that i feel necessarily feel safe about riding a bike as well and we're still trying to get the bike safety and we know that walk safety is difficult so getting places is hard so where does this fit into the larger picture moving towards safety? i see this as one effort. i don't know if this will reduce us to zero and i don't know if you expect that as well but a significant move forward. what would be the next step after that that we need to be thinking about? i am going to support this but thinking in terms of the larger picture to have real solutions in making our cities feel safe both for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. what's the collective impact strategy that you think we will need next? >> [inaudible] (off mic) as we talked about earlier we have the five es and the p and we focus on the "p" today, the policy. we have a large scale education campaign that we're working very closely with mta to achieve a sort of a culture change around traffic safety and vision zero. this isn't about teaching people how to look left, right and left again. this is talking about this is the problem in san francisco. we all play a part in this solution, and these are all the different things that need to happen together to do that. there are some really large scale construction projects coming up and i will let mary talk about in a second but we have a real exciting police department. they are working on a -- you will see the new technology and instead of hand written tickets they're doing a pilot how to issue citations electronically to reduce error and be more efficient and that is going to be launched this year as well, and then we have all of our wonderful work with our team in environmental health who is doing all of the evaluations, so there's a lot of pieces to the pie that we're working on in vision zero and i will let maury talk. >> just quickly as anna described it is a multi-pronged approach to a very significant issue here in san francisco, so among engineering and evaluation and education and enforcement we know we can't engineer our way out of something and educate ourselves out of something and looking at these efforts and in the engineering efforts they too if necessary have the enforcement component, have the education component and then we can evaluate, so we're in the second year of a two year action strategy which includes tests for all of these items, and we already know that some things have to change. as you've heard the numbers haven't gone down. it's an iterative process. we set a goal of ten years and we will continue to work towards that, and ase is one of the tools to reach that but with respect to engineering coming from the sfmta using the high injury network map we are developing our capital improvement program, all of the capital projects to prioritize those corridors, but in addition we want to of course make the streets safer city-wide and regardless if someone is from the city or coming to visit or from a nearby you know east bay, north bay, south bay we want everyone to have a safe experience traveling through whether walking, biking or driving and it's about bringing all of the things together. it's relatively new here in the states so we have great examples internationally and we're borrowing best practices from both them and partner agencies across the nation, so -- >> i am feeling i am missing from this or some of the efforts i am interested in branding our city in a way that transportation makes sense, so for example los angeles is a driving town. regardless how you look at you have to drive to get somewhere in l.a. portland and seattle are those kinds of town and new york -- i'm not sure it's a vision zero town or a safe town. how am i supposed to get across town and how does it translate into the policy that we just had a resolution? again the resolution from a health perspective makes sense, but a coherent transportation strategy and a vision of that really translates into everybody feeling this is the way to get around. i think it's around having a green vision, a healthy vision. i think that certainly is very much in line with san francisco's ethos, but it would be nice for me to begin seeing some of that as part of the branding of this because i think that's what is going to keep me as a citizen thinking how i drive and how i should be moving about, so otherwise i am looking at a lot of stop signs and flashing things and lights telling me what not to do but i am looking for things what to do well and be a safe transporter. >> sure, sure. and that has come with new safety treatments. you know the green bike line -- some people have never seen them before and yay another half lane for me to drive in. they don't understand how to use those necessarily and that is part of the education process and teaching them what they are and with respect to what you should be doing and how to get across town. another vision zero is the priority for the sfmta but mode shift. we provide transit and biking infrastructure and other infrastructure and we want people moving towards those so those priorities go hand and hand and we want to make sure we're building the safest network for people to choose those modes of transportation. >> have we thought about a healthy transportation campaign, be healthy when you're moving around, as part of the healthy -- part of the obesity campaign. >> [inaudible] commissioner pating. that is in the pre-planning stages right now. mta is leading that. there is a large scale campaign. i'm on the committee for that effort and you should begin seeing some branding and communication collateral and materials coming out by the summer or the end of the year and i am happy to come back with the team and give an update on vision zero and include that messaging particularly, but that is on the docket for this year. mta got a significant add back from the mayor's office and the supervisors to develop the exact materials you're talking about. >> good. because i bought a new pedal scooter and looking to try it out downtown and i need a place to be safe. >> [inaudible] >> my only reflection on this is in discussion kind of the pragmatic politics of this that you face in the state legislature is that -- i can't believe i'm doing this. but my dad gave me advice "don't be so open minded that your brain falls out" and by that we shouldn't be embarrassed that we give tickets and be shy and points for speeding because of the injuries it causes. i mean the data are compelling. the thought that you guys have put into this in the other cities has been detailed and care, and you know we got a good point so let's not water it down so much so it doesn't matter. you know these kinds of injuries change peoples' lives. forget how expensive they are. they really change peoples' lives for the worse so i think we ought to go for it. like we shouldn't be embarrassed about it. >> yeah, i appreciate your comments. i think the only -- the reason we're watering it down because we were trying to find something that would pass-through the legislature, and -- >> i don't have to worry about that sitting up here. >> yeah. >> you continue to do this the next thing they're going to say "well, we don't want electricity in the cameras because then they will work." i just think we're trying to do good things for our city, and we awtd not to let forces talk us from the logic. >> and correct me -- >> [inaudible] (off mic) be more acceptable to some of the delegation and the opposition. >> right. commissioner chung. >> i appreciate you mentioning that this is a multi-prong approach, and you know like so far we have heard about the pedestrian safety and how we are trying to make it safer for pedestrians. we've changed like cyclists like safety by implementing it is green bike lanes and this seems like a harm reduction model for trying to reduce. the fatalities but the data shows that 30% of the fatalities was a result of like speeding so what are the other 70%? what are we going to do with the other 70%? >> is this the slide you're talking about? >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> so commissioners i think it's quite clear from the discussion that we are looking at accepting this resolution resolves but looking at strengthening it, and i think as commssioner singer says you can also use real data here. i mean you've got data showing 38% including the pedestrian right of way right there is a cause of these traffic accidents, you know. there's just a number of things that i think can strengthen it so we can have a stronger resolution for you in terms of moving our endorsement of the agenda. >> absolutely and we will work on that in the next couple of weeks and get that to you in time for the may 3 meeting, absolutely. thank you. >> are there any further comments at this point? >> thank you. >> i have not -- we haven't done public comment on this. >> you have another meeting but let's look at a new resolution to be more specific and help you move this at the legislative level. >> thank you. i appreciate it. >> thank you very much. >> next item please. >> so we move on to item 9 which is the 2016 community health assessment and this is a resolution in support of the community health assessment that will be introduced today and voted on the may 3, 2016 meeting. >> good afternoon commissioners. my name is michelle currian and i am happy to be presenting today on the 2016 community health assessment. i am with the community health assessment impact unit of the department of public health population health division. first off what is a community health assessment? so the community health assessment provides a foundation for improving and protecting health by systematically identifying and describing health status of the community as well facts that impact health. the 2016 community health assessment collected information on healthy san franciscans via three methods, population health data -- sorry, population health data analysis, assessment of prior assessments, and community engagement. at the conclusion of these three elements health needs were then identified by committee. while the 2016 community health assessment is the city second it's the first that the health department completed in collaboration with our partners entirely internally. as you're aware in 2011 the health department embarked on a journey to obtain public health accreditation. community health -- sorry, completion of a community health assessment is a requirement of accreditation at least once every five years. accreditation however is not the only driver of the community health assessment. many city agencies, institutions and organizations are required to assess the health status of their groups. with a shared vision to promote and improve the health of our san franciscans we partnered with the non-profit hospitals via the san francisco health improvement partnership to create a unified health assessment and therefore reducing redundancy of efforts and better alignments of efforts to improve health. the community health assessment provides a foundation for each of the non-profit hospitals, required community health needs assessments as well as inform the san francisco health care services master plan. the department of public health will work with the hospitals and the community partners to develop a community improvement community plan which addresses some of the needs identified in this assessment. alignment to the this requirements necessitates that we complete a health assessment every three years instead of five. the first element of the 2016 community health assessment was examination of secondary quantitative population health data recognizing the essential role that social determinants of health play we examined data describing the conditions which san franciscans are born, grow, live, work and age, and individual risk and protective factors as well as disease and death rates. the modified bar high framework shown here was used to guide the breath of variables to be included. specific variables were then identified by cross referencing data with national and state and indicator projects such as healthy people 2020, the cdc's community status indicators and community health rankings. potential variables were ranked on results based management criteria of data power, proxy power and communication power as well as the ability to examine health inequities and current use by our stakeholders. in all 177 variables were analyzed. the results of those are included in 28 data sheets. where appropriate analysis include information on race, age, sex and place and ethnicity. the second element of the community health assessment was an assessment of existing assessments. as we designed the community engagement process we heard from community representatives that many residents felt over assessed and under served. we were afraid to offend and disrespect these residents as well as we recognize this being an excellent data source so we did this assessment of a prior community health assessments. the goals were to see which communities were prior assessed what analysis were done and the findings from the assessments. in total we collected 46 assessments and screened them. of the 21 are inclusion criteria and included in the analysis. this criteria included having data collection after 2010. the third collection method was community engagement had three principle goals. the first was to identify san franciscans health priorities especially those with vulnerable populations. a second was to obtain information on those populations for which we're lacking information, and the third was to build relations with the community. using information garnered from the assessment of prior assessments and the population health analysis we identified target populations which we knew had health disparities or had little data and not included in the recent assessment and which we could actually reach through existing community organizations. overall community engagement was small. it included a total of 127 participants in 11 meetings. however, our approach did allow us to meet with residents from varying backgrounds who might not have been likely civically engaged. the data collected through the 2016 community health assessments and the health priorities identified in the 2012 community health improvement plan were reviewed by the san francisco health improvement partnership members who determined the health needs. the san francisco health improvement partnership includes representatives from the health department, the non-profit hospitals, the clinical and translational science institutes community engagement and policy program at ucsf, the san francisco unified school district, the office of the mayor, the community clinic consortium, face base and philanthropic partners as well as community representatives from the asian and pacific islander parity coalition, human services network, the chicana [inaudible] and the african-american community health council. participants identified health needs through a multi-step process. the first was review of data via presentation, data sheets and a data summary. if it is that we had small group discussions and had a workshop. for the entire process it was defined as a health outcome of morbidity or mortality or behavioral health services, clinical care and factors that impact well being. to be a healthy outcome or contributing factor needs to be -- [inaudible] (low audio) and for the defined benchmarks were pulled from national or city estimates or healthy 2020 targets where available. the assessments itself served as benchmarks for examining population data. overall the 2016 community health assessment found that health is improved in many ways in san francisco. for example, more than 97,000 residents gained health insurance under the affordable care act in 2014 and had steady declines in hiv diagnosis and the rates of death due to complete speaker cards and documents to be part of the file should be submitted to the clerk disease, cerebral diseases and decreased in cancer has decreased want however, the assessment did identify two foundational issues, economic barriers to health and racial health inequities as well as seven health needs. the seven health needs are psycho-social health, healthy eating violence prevention, access to coordinated and lings qiftally services across the continuum, housing stability homelessness and substance abuse and physical activity. the foundational issues which can be viewed as cross cutting health needs were highlighted by the committee as these broad topics affect health at every level. the committee noted that improved health for all in san francisco requires planning which integrates consideration of these issues. data described in each of the foundational issues and health needs are provided in the assessment as well as the data sheets in the appendixes. the 2016 county health rankings released last month corobbate our findings and the overall ranking increased from 2015 to 2016. san francisco performed poorly relative to other california counties on a number of issues including excessive drinking, income inequality, high school education and violent crime and injury deaths. our final steps for the 2016 community health assessment are to address any remaining typos and errors and incorporate any changes you suggest. over the next weeks we will make edits but i do not expect major changes. as an example one that was brought to my attention in table 11 in the demographics appendix. here a word omission and a title lead us to say we projected population of 294,000 instead of population change of that amount. we don't expect any catastrophic changes in population. the next major step for the department of public health is to update the community health improvement plan, identify the assessment will be prioritized and objectives and strategies to adopt the health needs and this work is ongoing and expected to be complete mid-2016. again i want to thank you for having me present today and i want to ask if you have any questions. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> thank you. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> thank you very much. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> i have not received mic but i would like to note that commssioner singer has to leave by six and you have a half-hour to ask questions. >> [inaudible] (off mic) one of the things -- [inaudible] i think also important for us to acknowledge as part of the work that we need to do -- [inaudible] there are a number of parameters we're not at that we should be in terms of our own level of say -- level of activity and that goes all the way from the question of continued rising rates in the syphilis rates for -- tuberculosis [inaudible] but it's in the data base but the process doesn't seem to allow that we would look at those as also being as important as some of the things impacting health. i mean just sort of absent all the way down psycho-social -- [inaudible] anything that talks about trying to address the known disparities [inaudible] (off mic) high syphilis rates -- [inaudible] and maybe it's a process that doesn't actually able to acknowledge those are also very key factors that are important as we look at the health of the community -- [inaudible] (off mic). >> okay. yeah. so identified health needs don't show absolutely every small data point in which we may not perform well. they're broad categories, and in the into graphics we point out some of the data points that support those and i know that as the health department we're not going to stop working on the communicable diseases and we have robust programs on them at the same time when looking at death data the top killers are all chronic diseases, and so we definitely can look at the process to make sure that it is open to all of the health needs. >> [inaudible] (off mic) report card and in fact in those days determined that certain things would be objectives -- [inaudible] i am just saying -- [inaudible] medical health doesn't show up in the context -- [inaudible] (off mic) community health is very important down here -- [inaudible] so i'm not sure how to capture that. i'm not saying this an inappropriate document for planning but is there some recognition there are other factors that are really important that are also going to be priorities for us? >> right , right. >> [inaudible] even health assessment programs -- [inaudible] >> so this is a city-wide community health assessment, and then it identified some specific needs at a city level. the next thing that is going to happen is bringing together the diverse stakeholders to come up with a community health improvement plan that will have more specificity on as a city what areas we want to address. now, the other thing that's going to happen additionally is as the population health division also develops a strategic plan that's even broader that addresses those things in the community health improvement plan or chip or broader priorities so if you go back -- you probably don't remember but remember we have a strategic plan and we have a cross cutting initiative, so there is a bigger plan and the other thing to realize is that our strategic plan has to have some focus and specificity in terms of addressing the things that have the highest burden of disease, and so we need that for public health accreditation but our foundational activities never go away, so our core communicable disease for all of those diseases, tuberculosis, std et cetera as well as all of the environmental health activities so what you will be seeing is really a subset of all the things that we do but there are other documents when you put them all together paint the complete picture, but -- >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> yes. this is just the assessment, community health improvement plan and you will see a new plan and strategic and again they're high level and there are hundreds of things that the division does and you get updates through other means of std and tuberculosis et cetera. >> [inaudible] >> well, first of all the appendix is just wonderful. i went to sleep reading it and quizzed my wife saying guess how many of this in each district? it was a fun exercise and how well we can know our city and felt like a manual to san francisco living and i want to thank you for that. no. i actually liked what dr.argone said at this point and the chip is a subsection of the health plan and the question is how we would be hearing that data? and we can hear that at the community health sub-committee how the larger ph.d plan is brought up. i like the health needs. i was hoping the violence and prevention would be on the target and given we're 49th -- or 57th, 58th county in california of violence in some neighborhoods so really glad of that and i hope the issues around homelessness are not just around housing and i see mental health and substance abuse are in there and i think thereby a lot of integration services when we get to the actual plan. i realize this is just the health assessment so the question is -- sorry for the prolong. how long is the plan and how long will it last? we do it every few years i understand. >> it's due out mid-2016 and the group is currently working on it, and whether it's going to be updated probably to reflect the timeline that the health assessment is on which is about every three years due to the alignment with the irs. >> so as you present the plan to us it would be nice to see things that were in previous plans that maybe we now decided we met goals or are less important so it might be success. and the new plan and going to see how things change. >> [inaudible] (off mic) part of the total programs of the department and -- [inaudible] as stated here and then becomes the only document -- [inaudible] >> i wanted to acknowledge commissioner chung had a question and i will go after. >> [inaudible] >> so this is like deja vu and i think when i was first appointed to the commission i had the privilege to attend a lot of the community meetings -- chip, right, the other meetings they went to were hip and i get confused with that and the chip and the hip and i want to say it's really amazing. we just had the vision zero presentations. i remember these conversations vividly it came from the community as well, you know, about pedestrian safety, about you know like having more organic food in grocery stores, so like to me i definitely feel and think that you know like those process has translate to actual policy work here that the community was prioritizing, so kudos to you, so what i am seeing now is that we're trying to build on the last plan and you know add some new policies and you know new priorities to it. is that correct? >> yeah. they did take into consideration that the previous 2012 chip that was definitely -- it may be reorganized a bit but some of those priorities are -- [inaudible] >> yeah. i would hate to see that we start a conversations from the beginning again, you know, when there's so much work being put into it. the question i have is you've identified language needs, you know, like spanish and chinese and since chinese only accounts for 18% of the asian populations. what are some other languages? do you have any thought into what like languages that we need to prioritize for our communities? >> i'm not prepared to answer that in detail right now. we do have a list of more than the highest ranking languages that are spoken in san francisco in the appendix so if there was -- yeah, i don't know which table to refer you but it says the more common languages and we can certainly -- >> yeah, one other thing i want to point out with the graph of like ethnic composition i think you counted asian twice because you said api and asians. i assume that is pacific islanders and asians. >> i will be sure to check on that. >> [inaudible] >> yes, one of the things that we're really excited about is because all these stakeholder come together like the hospitals, us and if you go across the country it's not like this and it's fragmentd and not all of this collaboration and because we're able to come together with a collective vision allows the hospitals as they invest in the community benefits to align with this common vision and it's also helping philanthropy, the grant makers funding health priorities that they have a framework in priorities. we're all going to be working for the same play book from my perspective is exciting and powerful and i wanted to share that with you. >> i just wanted to add to that and acknowledge our deputy directive colleen chela who helped frame this as well because you could have four different plans coming in front of you, and so we've did -- dr. argone and michelle great work and it was awkward for the groups to sit together and they got through that and it's been a great process for them and this also solves so many of the requirements for so many of the groups and as the doctor said it's collective in that whole role collective path starts with the data and also the understanding of what the health status and that's the foundation of the department of public health is to assess the health of the community and i want to thank them all for a great job. >> yeah. i want to thank you as well and i think it's super helpful in many ways, scmi think our challenge from the plan and then to implementing it is making sure that the resources of the department are deployed in a way that reflects the conclusions of the department what are our biggest challengings, and i think it's hard to do for a couple of reasons. one, we tend to make decisions serially and we get in terms of spending on programs, and we frequently have an ability to actually put it in the context of the wider spend, and this really gives us the opportunity to do that, so that we can actually go after things rationalely, and that's very hard to do in the context of so many stakeholders, the power of inertia in an organization like ours, not because anyone is equal but the reality of life and i am looking forward to the net set of discusses to see the connection of what is laid out here and how we actually deploy our resources. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> yeah. >> and so i think -- [inaudible] (off mic). >> right. then the next key document that is coming is the chip, the community health improvement plan and will link -- >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> right, right, right. exactly. >> may i ask in regards to the hearing, the presentation maybe presenting to the commission we could be within that cqi cycle so what were the lessonsern laed in the last plan and the last assessment and tying this presentation in and saying where we ended up and lessons learned and what we learned and new changes and add to the continuity and this isn't a new assessment. you have been working on these issue issues for a long time and in the historical sense and refresher and given the complexity of your capacity to solve these problems. >> [inaudible] >> that's my pet peeve almost in every report is i understand that sometimes because transgender community is not large enough to make a significant, you know, like data point in these datas, but it would be helpful you know at least as an explanations why when we look at you know different mental health and all these other -- physical health, it's only being categorized by male, female and not without articulating the reason why some are being left out, yeah. >> yeah. we can better know definitely in the sexual health section and other relevant areas where we have omitted data due to data stability issues. >> but i assume this problem will self correct later on in time with aca implementation and within other data collections we're doing. >> yeah. i hope so and i want to note in the community engagement transgender was one we reached out to and they participated. >> [inaudible] (off mic). >> oh in any instance where we had zip code data we didn't place it in the neighborhoods as you they're not mutually exclusive but we presented that as zip code data and neighborhood data would be at the census track and rolled up evenly into neighborhoods. if we created neighborhood profiles we would definitely -- if we translate the zip code data into a neighborhood we will provide you that. >> [inaudible] (off mic) and depending where they live and what it was i mean we weren't sure what categories we were in, and i am in east valley or castro or market? maybe it's just the map we need to find out how you draw these. >> in addition a key to the map and cross referenced easier. >> [inaudible] >> got it. sure. >> sorry to make this go longer here but commenting on that particular draft it is such a useful tool. i can imagine from a research perspective and citizens perspective and won't remain static and some of the state data systems it's open and you can do public queries of that data base and by zip code, hypertension rates and stress rates and alcohol rate and if you're doing research on an issue a wonderful public service tool. getting this on real time server whatever quarterly intervals you could update it. it's such a wonderful tool that i hope you continue to make this data available and if we could make it real time it would be so much better. i am very, very pleased. for me that was worth the price of the report was the appendix you produced. >> yeah. it's definitely in our interest to go from the report format and something more interactive and as we involve yourself. >> [inaudible] >> commissioners and because we have a lack of time i am suggesting that you all take the rest of the categories and report out. there is no reporting except for item 11 and postpone that until the next meeting. >> that is fine. is there any objection? so motion for adjournment is in order. >> motion to adjourn. >> second. >> second. >> okay. all in favor of adjournment please say aye. >> aye. >> all opposed? the meeting is now adjourned. [gavel] called the meeting to order the meeting has come to order ladies and gentlemen, please silence all electronic devices. and can we please rise for the pledge of allegiance and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under god, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> for all who. >> commissioner president loftus airline pr commissioner suzy loftus commissionere

more space dedicated for things we care about and that is basically our vision that we are moving forward on with this grant. the second piece of this is to create a community challenge to ask the neighborhoods how we can start piloting in the area. one neighborhood is selected, we may select more neighborhoods but it will start one first and figure ways to we can provide technical services to the applicants and improve the [inaudible] services and new ideas into that neighborhood. the city team that is moving forward with the grant is a core policy team between my team and the mayors office, uc berkeley and the consultant we are starting with and the technical support team consists of many different groups inside the mta and city partners with department of technology, the sfcta, metropolitan transportation commission, [inaudible] and california strategic growth council and have a externt support team with different technology providers and we'll work with community engagement organization to help with the community challenge. our key steps in closing is that we are initiating the project team to get this final phase of the grant delivered. we develop the community challenge with community partner tooz create the engagement, website portal, [inaudible] and review panel and developing the qualified technology partners because we are ininidated and want to be able to screen them to help they add value [inaudible] as part of a requirement we have to do a 3 minute video slaining the vision and concept. i want to mention the smart city grant should we receive it will accelerate the program where most of the stuff is already under way so this will give a big boost. that is my conclusion, happy to answer any questions. >> thank you papandreou. colleagues any question or comments? seeing none we'll move to public comment then. thank you. any public comment on item number 10? >> this time should start when i arrive at the podium so could you reset the button please to 2 minutes? thank you. so, one supervisor asked a question of the grants-there is no guarantee they'll get a grant, but then we ask a couple of questions. number 1, the southeast sector, 30,000 units are [inaudible] right now if you evaluate the transportation system in the southeast sector it gets a f minus. now, if you travel from the southeast sector to the north, every day you supervisors should go and check the freeways. the congestion is so umbearable people are fighting on the freeways and soon we'll have shooting on the freeways. it is very nice to hear plans as if we are living on another planet. as far as i know we are living on the planet earth and we need to be realistic. the first thing is san franciscans need to be respected so the public transportation system should cater to san franciscan's. we recently had a report on the newer buses that maybe the performance isn't so good even though some talk that they would be good so we need to reevaluate the new buses and find out if you spend millions and millions of dollars if you are doing san franciscan's right by spending taxpayers money. i appreciate it very much just giving us 2 minutes on the very very convoluted topic. thank you very much. >> thank you. any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. okay, this is a information item. item number 11. >> item 11, introduction of new items, >> colleagues any introductions? any public comment on item 11? seeing none public comment is closed. this is also a information item. item 12, any general public comment? >> good morning commissioners. when the truth of one is in charge [inaudible] and destiny of origin [inaudible] travel a thousand miles in [inaudible] knowing of true destiny then [inaudible] human way of life in circumstances should make up proportions to have a way of [inaudible] holy destiny [inaudible] loyalty, parental love, dignity [inaudible] having the wisdom and courage [inaudible] ones existence of true self [inaudible] is ones true heart [inaudible] thank you so much. >> next speaker. >> supervisors, so i like to address quality of life issues. and i know the supervisors-some of the supervisors who work in our districts trying to do the right thing. we need to address transportation in a different way. often we put the emphasis on consultants and as i look to the right here, i see a lot of change of faces. a lot of change of faces. i do not see a diversity. we need a diversity and we don't see it here. we are going to visit you all at your office and not a couple people but maybe 2, 300 people just like we did the other day. when we went to two supervisors they were missing in action and than were [inaudible] relevant pertinent questions they couldn't answer, so you know, i'm here to put the san francisco county transportation authority on notice and i can do that because i represent the first people of the area to mark malone and you all haven't been paying to that. a lot of your eir ceqa and so forth you came here 2 or 300 years ago and took things over you can do as you please. we really don't need to be building so much. we don't need congestion. thank you very much. >> any additional general public comment? seeing none public comment is closed. item number 13. >> item 13, adjournment. >> colleagues we are adjourned. [meeting adjourned] >> pilaties. it's a creation, an old regimen of exercise. really based on core engagement and core structure and core development. we do a lot of exercise in developing that and think about lengthening of the spine and our muscles. if you're a runner, if you're into kayaking, martial arts, cycling pilates are for you. >> programs are variety year around at various locations and to learn more come to the >> this is regular meeting of vision zero committee for thursday march 31, 2016. i am supervisor norman yee and i will be chairing today's meeting. i am joined by supervisor campos and i'm sure supervisor kim is on her way. the committee will also -- i can like to ad acknowledge the staff at -- the committee clerk is steve stamos, and the committee would also like to acknowledge the staff at sfgtv, jez see larson and leo diesis would record all of the meetings and make the transcripts available to the public online. mr. clerk, do you have any announcements? >> there are no announcements. >> okay. can you please call item number 1. >> item one, roll call, commissioner campos, campos present, commissioner kim, commissioner kim, not present, commissioner yee? >> here. >> we have a quorum. >> item number 1 would be -- is that number 2 for you? >> item 2, approve the minutes of the december 10, 2016 meeting, this is an action item. >> okay. is there any public comment for this item? seeing none, public comment is now closed. can i have a motion? >> so moved. >> okay. >> we'll take a roll call. >> role ka*ul, please. er >> on the approval of the minutes, commissioner campos? >> aye. er >> campos, aye. commissioner kim, kim, absent. commissioner yee? >> aye. >> yee, aye, the minutes are approved. >> could i have item number 3. >> item 3, vision zero at if state and national level, this is an information item. >> okay, i think tom maguire, the director of the sustainable streets of the san francisco mta will update the committee on vision zero related centiliters at the state and national level. mr. maguire ?frjts thank you, commission necessaries, thanks for the chance to be here to talk about this topic today. i think we all know that san francisco has been a national lead ner the vision zero movement, that was apparent to my colleagues and i this spring as we attended a couple of meetings around the country, we talked to other city nas are on the path to the zero vision commitment. earlier this mo*nlt, sftv, dph and the mayor's staff attended the vision zero mayor's conference, it brought together leaders from industry, government, ak dmaoem ya and advocacy to talk about effective strategies for implementing and achieving vision zeros in american city, we saw sessions on speed cameras, improve thing ways in which government works with advocates and ways to hit and run nesz data and technology to improve the date to of the street, we attended the first meeting to have vision zero network, leah shan put this together, we brought together 10 cities from around the country, austin, boston, chicago, portland, san francisco, washington dc, and we are beginning to work together in a collaborative way to share best practices, address roadblocks to vision zero and find ways to make vision zero more a national movement, so san francisco continues to lead and we also continue to learn from other cities around the country that have set this ambitious goal, so that's the vision vao*er row city's conference. i also had the opportunity in february to attend a meeting put on by the national highway traffic administration, the administrator was in san francisco asking leaders from government and public h*eflt to share sfrat jis for improving what he calls behavior change, everything from antismoking campaigns to seat belt campaigns to figure out how the federal government can get engaged in sending strong national message to drivers about how to drive safely and achieve the goal that is we in san francisco call vision vao*er row, that's my report on vision zero at the state and national level. >> i'm just curious, when you get together with these different cities that are implementing vision vao*er row, do you have a sense of how much they spend to get to vision zero? >> you know, i don't have a spefng apples to apples number that i can compare to what we spent in san francisco, we spent about 9ed .5 million dollars on the first 24 and 24 project that we completed earlier this year. i do know that many cities are at different place ins the vision vao*er row journey, some have made the commitment, some have put together a multiagency group like we have, some have leveraged really strong advocates as well, so i don't have a direct answer, it's something we could be able to research and come back to you. >> especially if yu break it down into not only the engineering enforcement that are hard to break down i guess, but the education piece, public education on the [inaudible] it would be interesting to see how much each place spends probably to be fair, how much did they spend per person, you know, obviously new york's going to possibly be spending a lot more money. >> okay. >> any other questions? okay. do we take public comment on these things? no questions, so thank you very much, mr. maguire, any public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is now closed. mr. clerk, can you call item number 4. >> item 4, next generation of vision zero projects, this is an information item. >> it's you again. >> sorry. okay, so we talked about what's happening at the national level, we also know that right now as we look at the projects we want to do in 2016, we're certainly looking back on a year in 2015 when we did not see a drop in the number of fa fatalities from 14 to 15, so we lost the same number that we did in 2014 like we did in 2015, we're not fast enough with our project delivery, we see the driver behavior is the leading cause, fail tog yield, speeding, red light, nothing's changed there, we know we did get a lot of work done in 2015. we have increased the number of citations, we're focused on the five, we put out engineering treatments, something like 1500 small and large treatments as well as completing more than the 24 and 24 that we made the commitment to back in 2014, so looking ahead at 2016, the last time we met, you asked us to come back with a list of projects across all the vision vao*er row disciplines and have that be something we continue to track through this committee in the years ahead, our focus in 2016 is trying to get a handle on excessive speeding, you'll see throughout the presentation that we want to focus engineering, education, policy and enforcement efforts on controlling those excessive speeds, those drivers going 10, 15, 20 miles over the speed limit, we're so disproportionately at faults nr the fatalities we see on the street. so, i want to go through the next few slides, these are highlights of the longer list that we distributed as part of the meeting packet. we want to give you a flavor of the engineering enforcement, education and evaluation project that is we have under way in 2016 and 2017. one thing we talked about last time is some of these are projects that are quick turn around time, projects we'll get done in the year 2016-17, other are streetscape improvements, for instance, the ma sonic street gate project that we will break ground on this june, that's not going to get done in 2016, that's a multiyear project, there are throughout this presentation the key milestones we think we can deliver over the next two years and these projects span every supervisorial district fwh the city and they span everything from bike ped improvements, road diets on streets like turk, things like the radar speed feedback sign, something that's been specifically requested through the participatory budgeting process in district 7, so again, wide range of projects and wide range of neighborhoods and we'll be reaching major milestones and/or completing these projects in 2016, 2017. on the unfortunate side, we are really excited that san francisco police department is going to begin a pilot of east citations with the traffic company, this will streamline the reporting of crash data from the field and really help improve standardize the date da and help us get a handle on crashes and collisions in a much more robust way. we also have an aniseed campaign, we'll have a presentation on that later in the agenda today. >> excuse me, just a quick question. you explained the key citation, what does that mean. >> key citation iss the ability of the officer to write a citation from hand-held smart phones as opposed to writing the citation, the quality of the data is much better. on the education front, we have a number of targeted campaigns happening this year, we have a specific issue with motorcycle speeding causing crashes, so we secured some funding for -- to launch a motorcycle safety education campaign, funding community based organizations to do some neighborhood based culturally appropriate safety education to seniors, of course the safety town project will be complete, the department of public works is working on it, so a wide range of approaches to education as well. on the evaluation front, we've always said that vision zero in san francisco is a data driven eft so we're going to continue to invest in the tools that prioritize our investments based on data, we'll be updating the high entry data, that's where 72% of our collisions take place, the health department did that groundbreaking work in 2014 and we're going to update that network to make sure we are always working with the most recent collision data as we engineer vision zero projects, also updating transbase and that helps us link records from places like san francisco general hospital with what we learn from police crash reports and on the policy front, it is our goal to secure sponsorship for the ase enforcement bill, in 2015, we did make some progress on this, we did not get a sponsor, we drafted legislation, we had 22 letters of support from organizations around the city and around the state, and our goal in 2016 is to move towards introduction of the bill in december, 2016 so we continue to did outreach with a number of interested groups, teamsters, triple a, law enforcement, public health, group that is are specifically interested in privacy issues to really get all the feedback that we need to find sponsors and get that legislation moving in december, 2016 t, so that's an overview of what we are proposing as our vision vao*er row priority project list for 2015-17. thank you. >> supervisor kim? >> thank you, chair yee. thank you, mr. maguire for the presentation. i had two questions. one, you know, i wanted to know your thoughts on what the strategy was to get an author for the state legislation in 2016 because i know we've now tried for two legislative cycles so we've done the letter writing, we reached out to potential sponsors, wats the thinking of how we'll get it on the docket next year. >> i would like to let my colleague to come up and answer that question. she's spearheading that campaign. >> that is a 60 million dollar question, so we have been working very consistently in moving forward, i think in educating a larger community outside of san francisco on the benefits and the proven practice of automated speed enforcement, that is not simple or a linear path as we've come to learn. i think it's been critical in continuing to educate both our delegation as well as interested other members of the legislature that advocates have been at our side. i don't think that us alone really would have been successful and so we -- i think the progress that i can really point to is that we have sat down with the opposition and heard exactly what concerns they have -- >> who are they? >> i'm speaking specifically about the teamsters who have had a traditional -- i wouldn't call it an out right opposed position on this specific proposal but really the issues that relate to the use of cameras in general for enforcement, and so we've been sitting down with them, i think a lot of the work that has happened here with unions in general has really helped open that dialogue to one where there's an openness of mind to have a conversation, to listen to why we continue to believe that this is a tool that san francisco needs to have. in addition to that, again, with the advocates at our side, i think a good deal of influence and pressure has been brought to our own delegation and i think we feel confident that members of our own delegation, i don't want to speak for them at this point, but feel pretty positive about a willingness to introduce a bill and when tom says december of this year, that is the earliest that we could see -- >> [inaudible]. >> i understand that, so who -- >> could you mention who has expressed interest in introducing in december of 2016? >> we've been talking to assemblymember chiu chu and this year to get into the process, we were working closely with the city of san jose and we were really taking their lead at this time and working with members of their delegation and the end of the process by which we needed to have an author, they decided they weren't ready, and so there was not much time left and i think that our delegation has seen what it means to westbound on camera legislation in sacramento. >> has there been -- do we have coalition members and advocates and other city members to help us do a multiprong approach, so san jose is working on their representative, we're working on assemblyman chu, l.a. is the other major city i assume that might be interested. >> l.a. is not there yet on the camera proposal, they are looking at rebooting on how speed limits are set in los angeles, they're focused on speed, it came to our attention last week that the city of coranato had a unanimous council decision to enforce speed enforcement, the city of sacramento in the last month has adopted vision zero commitment, so for all of us, it's not happening fast enough, but i think, you know, each path that we take at this, i think as i'm talking here, we had a positive conversation with the california association of police chiefs whose members are also eager to have this tool, so that's a sort of short version of the play by play, and that's where it's at. >> is there kind of a calendar of different things that we plan on doing between now and december? >> yes. >> and then the one thing i remember from attend thing vision zero conference in new york city was how they were able to lower the speed limits in new york city was through intensive outreach by families who have lost someone due to a vehicular collision and they spent a lot of time going up arranging office visits, i mean, this is the time to do it, so between march and november, having families set up appointment, even if the office isn't free until may, june or october, at least you get those dates in and families are able to share their actual stories and i'm not if there's hearings on these issues where people can come up and speak on public comment. >> so, those are all things that should be part of any work plan that has tactics that are going to be successful, i totally agree with you and we've talked extensively with nicole and her team at walk sf in mobilizing those units, if we had an author in november, we would have started that in november, a lot of behind the scenes stuff that we couldn't do, here we are and we have a commitment with the city's lobbyist to start engaging in those kinds of pelting. they don't have to be hearings, they can be individual meetings with legislators and with members of the administration, so -- >> but i think they still do have hearings that -- with open public comment. i think you need to start that campaign now because it seems like it's not just enough to get the votes for the bill, you need to do that to get some authors on board. have you sat down with aclu? >> they're next, we know we have entrees into that realm, we are trying to be strategic in how we start taking amendment tos the bill so we don't have five different versions of it out there, but they are very much at the top of the list as well. >> great. my next question is back to mr. maguire, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> and that is -- i'm sorry if i might have missed this in the beginning, but i know last year, you know, with we announced that we were able to successfully finish 24 projects -- pie lots, that we had requested the next set of list for the next 24 months, and i know that you have the priority projects like the arguella bike lane and the turk street diet, i'm curious where the next 24 projects are and what that looks like. n the board packet today, we have a list of i believe it's about 40 projects that we're proposing would be that list that you asked for in december. >> okay. then i guess my question is what is the safe routes to school project exactly? on page 8. >> yes. >> hello, my name is mike, [inaudible] i'm with the engineer with the group. that project is to complete a project that's currently under way if you go out to tenderloin, you'll see some curbs being worked on, we're adding bulbs out and adding work. >> just on turk street? >> i believe it's foe curds on turk, there may be a project on another intersection too, i believe there's at least two intersections on turk street and i would have to confirm the other location. >> that's great, i hear about a lot of conflict on that corridor or that block as well. and [inaudible] i notice that some of them are to complete conceptual design, some of them is to complete construction, complete construction, and i absolutely want to expedite completing design, i think obviously that's a key piece of it, but i do want to clarify that i think when we talk about what are these expedited projects that we really mean complete construction, so i think it's still good to have that comprehensive list of 40, but it would be great to know that there was 24 projects where we expect to complete construction in the next 24 months. >> okay. >> thank you. >> supervisor campos? >> if we can go back to -- thank you, mr. maguire, for the presentation, great work. on the automated speed enforcement, maybe if we can go back to that issue. is that like a red light camera type thing, is that sort of how it works? how does it work. er >> we're trying to make a distinction between those because red light cameras have different couldn't verse ris, but the way that the proposal that we have would be to take images of license plates only, this proposal that san francisco has been advancing is one that would be decriminalized in essence, it's not a moving violation so, the images that are recorded are first triggered when the speed violation occurs and the photograph is taken of the license plate. >> i think we have to be careful about these things. i mean, i dent necessarily think there is -- or maybe i'm just -- it's just me, but i think that we have to look at the privacy concerns and the desperate impact that some of these strategies have on certain communities. so, i don't know, you know, sort of where this falls in the efficacy of enforcement and sort of spectrum of what tactics makes sense, but i think that we need to be careful about this and i don't think it should be a given that everyone on this board will simply say yes, it does make sense bah i don't think we even have that discussion in terms of collectively as a board have, have we voted on automated speed enforcement? >> it's a policy in the adopted vision sao*er rho action strategy. >> we're going to go down this path of pushing for this, i think we need to have more discussion on that because i think there are privacy concerns. >> there are, and i will say this to you, that is absolutely one of the top three issues that comes up whether the debate happens on automated speed enforcement in general, and the approach that -- and privacy in general, whether it's clipper car data or other forms of personal data, the language that have taken is lang -- language that is specifically prescribe hated the images could only be used for the purposes for which they are gathered if i can call it in shorthand, i hear what you're saying. >> the problem is you have a thee roy and you have a practice, if i'm an undocumented person drive ining the mission, what is that mean in terms of the chances that without me knowing, a camera could take a picture of my license plate and given to law enforcement and ending up in the wrong hands and even though certain things are not supposed to happen, we've had examples as recently as a few weeks ago of someone who was reporting a stolen car who ended up in detention, so i think we need to be careful about this stuff. >> noted, thank you. >> so, in looking at the list of projects, i received a letter from i think one of my -- maybe my constituents, either that or he's in district 11. he pointed out that -- we've talked about this before, that there are other corridors that are probably just as dangerous but maybe the stats don't necessarily highlight those things, ocean avenue, general nao*ef va, alameni and mission, and i know for a fact ocean avenue is pretty dangerous with you're trying to cross there, so i'm just curious, even though maybe there weren't any projects listed in the high priority, if we have projects at all that maybe don't make the 24 or whatever but we're actually working on them, we should probably have sort of an appendix for that so people understand that these are not the only 24 projects that we have if possible. >> that is possible, so we have -- we made a commitment which we met last year in 2015 and which we'll meet again in 2016 to improve 13 miles of [inaudible] network every year for 10 years, if we continue at that pace, we will abate safety improvement, every single block on the [inaudible] network before 24/24, we'd certainly be able to follow up with those locations, it's also important that when we talk in the evaluation section about updating the high injury network, we certainly want to take advantage of that exercise the find out these streets that maybe just missed the cut or were perhaps crash sites waiting to happen so we're not missing important streets like the ones you mentioned so i'll definitely keep an eye on that. >> thanks, and i like that you have sort of at the last page slide about talking about legislation and maybe that should be a permanent slide because we are trying to do different things locally, and at the state level, i think assemblyman chu and [inaudible], they're jointly putting something together to address the tour bus issues. i'm putting things locally together to maybe improve the situation by regulating tour buses a little bit more, so i think it's a good wantoning to let the committee know and let others know, these are other actions we're taking that really place well into us trying to get into vision zero. thank you, any other questions? did i ask for public comments on this yet? no? public hens on this item? >> yes. >> on item number 4. >> good afternoon, commissioners, [inaudible] projects should enforce driver's education of good concentration on driving by eliminating distractions of cell phone, eating and talking to passengers while drives. on one way condition of accidents, hot spots should enforce reduction of speed law to secure pedestrian safety. warning signs for precautions must be posted on street corners on speeding traffic area to have pedestrian and is drivers apart of dangerous traffic accidents, preventive measures should be taken to prevent drinking and drivers, elders should pay extra attention in walking out to street traffic and to [inaudible] with open eyes, thank you. >> okay, any other public comment? >> hello commissioners, i'm the advocacy of the bicycle coalition, i wanted to note, thank you for your questions, commissioner kim, around on speed enforcement, the san francisco bus location is supportive of, but supervisor campos, we recognize there's a lot of details to be worked out that we use this tool effectively and not regressively to hurt any particular community, this is all about making our streets safer in the end. as it relates to the vision zero priority projects, we're really happy to see that engineering continues to be a top priority and it's a crucial piece as part of the three e's of vision sao*er rho, what we would impress upon to do as much as possible, i think one thing that's a little bit different than the original 24 vision zero projects is a lot of thing that is are on this list is things we already knew about, the original 24 vao*er row project list was able to create urgency locations where we knew people were getting hit and killed while picking, walking, driving, so being able to look at those locations and get a quick fix in the ground within a certain time period, in mta time, it's pretty fast, so we would encourage the city to be look at these quick fix locations, 13th street eastbound was -- sorry, westbound that was something that was graelt to be put in and get a protected bike lane on where we knew people were getting hit and being killed during biking, so try to continue to do more and use this vision zero priority project list as a way to increase urgency on delivering on these critical safety projects. thanks. >> okay. come on up. >> good afternoon, commissioners, my name is john alex lull, i'm the senior member of the pedestrian safety advisory committee and i emphasize to you the need to have open dialogue with the state of california caltrans as it particularly relates to lum bard, van ness, segments of south van ness and mission street and slo*ep boulevard which a segment of it is also a state road, to have dialogue with caltrans relating release of funds and approval particularly for these high injury corridors. that's a strong component for why i come up to you and my second one to you, norman yee, is to mention the city engaged at the particular request of supervisor mark farrell that the city carry out what was agreed upon two years ago, to redesign several blocks of bay street because the collision of two youths at the intersection of bay and buchanan, the city responded very quickly to do that, it unfortunately took a collision at that intersection for the city sfmta to raoelz realize what had been agreed up, there were nuances that remained in that plan with other city agencies on how to coordinate that. the last point is i recall mayor ga*fn's executive directive on pedestrian safety 1003 released in september, 2010 where he specifically asked for city agencies to work together to reduce pedestrian collisions in this city, thank you. >> thank you so much. >> good afternoon, commissioners, i'm kathy delucca, the policy and program manager with walk san francisco. first, commissioner kim, i wanted to say that walk san francisco has been working to form a family for safe street group ins the city and we did get some family members to call state legislators about automated speed enforcement so so we try today start that process and we'll continue working on that so i wanted you to know that, and -- but what i really want to comment is how upset we are at all of the pedestrians that have been killed so fixer some of the commissioners here attended the memorial that we held for tu phan in february, a memorial for mr. sun chow law, he was killed at broadway and powell in 2011, too many people are dying on our streets with we need your leadership, you've been vision zero leaders and i'm going call for you to keep leading the charge. we need your leadership, we know you don't approve projects but you have a lot of influence on projects, you fund safety projects, you influence staff and mta board member and is right now we need your leadership more than ever. we have projects that are getting weakened and we have supervisors that aren't standing up for safety in these projects that aren't putting safety first, so i urge you the keep being the vision zero leaders you are and make sure that safety never gets compromised out of a project the city's doing. thank you. >> supervisor yee, may i ask a question? >> sure. >> can i ask a question? >> of me? >> yeah. >> first of all, thank you, i know that walk sf is working to get the families, and i know the cause is so important for them to see the causes face to face, what has motivated me even though i support these effort iss meeting the family and friends because it is heart breaking, but second, i did want to ask, you mentioned there were projects that you felt were getting watered down, i'm curious what some of the priority project that is walk sf that you would like us to focus our attention and support on. i know the one from the district i represent but i'm not as familiar with the citywide potashes. i don't want to call people out, but this is the priority projects. >> there are several but one that feels urgent is the el tereval, it is a a high injury corridor, between 2009 and 14, 36 people were hit on the corridor and half of those who were hit were getting on and off the train and that's because the train doesn't have many boarding island to get off, they step off and get on to traffic, they were hit at stops that didn't have boarding islands, it's clear they're keeping people safe, city staff did a great job in creating a project that would keep people safe getting off the train, original project had boarding islands at every stop, great, great safety feature, just a basic safety feature that a transit system should provide. unfortunately, the plan has been revised based on push-back from the community, so there won't be boarding islands right now as proposed at every single stop, five of the stops will have a pilot project instead, they have paint in a travel lane that says watch out, and i don't think paint is going to keep people safe. we heard from a young man who was almost hit getting off the train last week, a blind gentleman in his 20's, he stepped off the train into moving traffic and he got off the train and there was a car there stopped at the train but the car then started and his cane literally was broken off in the wheel of this car, so we need these islands to keep people safe. we're lucky no one's been killed yet on this corridor, it's just a matter of time. we've been pushing hardworking with staff and working with our members and working with everyone we can to make sure this project has robust safety features because the boarding islands shouldn't be up for xomz compromise, it's a basic safety feature, to say we shouldn't have a place for people to step into safety doesn't seem like we're putting people first. so, that's the big one that's on my mind right now. >> i read about that, so i think this was in conflict with many of the small businesses were worried about losing parking spots. sxfrjts the great thing about the plan the city came up with is unlike a lot of times, parking does just go away in the compromise for safety and that's i think appropriate, but in this case, the city has been able to find parking spots for everyone that's moved off of teraval, they're replacing them with other locations so there's no loss of parking, it's just a relocation, it's a good situation for everybody involved because everybody's getting to keep something, but it's not being seen that way unfortunately. >> thank you. >> thanks. >> good afternoon, commissioners, my name is [inaudible] i'm an organizer at the san francisco bicycle coalition, i wanted to echo our advocacy director's helots and expand on our member's desire to see these vision vao*er row priority projects implemented on schedule and wherever possible expedited, to highlight a few of these projects and also to piggy back a little bit on the previous comments, we really want these projects to address the needs of the communities where they're being implemented. i bring the example of the polk street skaip project, a project we felt did not go far enough in addressing the needs of the community despite strong community support for a lot of these issues, similarly we also see projects delayed time and time again such as the pa trer row streetscape project which was approved in 2013 and is not scheduled to be completed until nearly 2018, that is a project that is desperately needed by the community in front of san francisco's public hospital, we need to reflect people in san francisco. >> any other public comments? seeing none, public comment is now closed. i have a question, two of them when you started mentioning about the el teraval, i'm wondering if we're in the same situation where some of the situations along the [inaudible] juda line, does anybody know. because there's quite a few places where they don't have islands there too. >> so i can give you what -- and it will be an incomplete answer, many of the stops have the boarding islands, particularly those close to the inner sun set, on the old teraval, the traffic move tos the right of the train, that one's different and there's an opportunity where we can bulb out the sidewalk close enough to the track to form kind of a boarding island configuration, so some of the safety issues of passengers boarding the trains on the street are present there, but the street's designed a little differently, so it's not as acute and there's not certainly the crash history we have on teraval. >> i'm more familiar with where does it start. in the lower number avenues along irving, there aren't any, i'm curious, can we find out some data, whether anybody's getting hit or anything? >> yes, we can definitely follow up on that. >> okay, thank you very much. supervisor kim, are you -- seeing no other further question, can we have a motion -- >> it's an information item. >> no motion needed, thank you very much. mr. clerk, can i have the next item. >> we're going the call item 6, update on the sfmta's safe driver training programs, this is an information item. >> so, we're going to call item 6 first before item 5 because there was a request to do that and there's some people in the audience that needs to leave, so come on up. >> thank you very much, don nox wuf with the sfmta, a team of us are here to provide an overview of our agency's efforts to ensure that are employee and is the people who do work for our agency are provided with ongoing training updated every year for driving safely around vulnerable road users. today i'm joined by three other colleagues who can discuss a number of the initiatives and policies related to non-revenue vehicles, those vehicles that are city vehicles, the vehicles that are not bringing revenue to the agency, taxis and our muni buses and trains. so, let's see. there we go. alright. so, initially, as i'm sure you are aware, funded by prop k, we have developed a non-revenue passenger vehicle training video, this is something that we put together as we were developing the large vehicle safety video. we realized that while we were doing the filming, a lot of the messaging we were providing to people who drive truck and is large vehicles in san francisco is the same for folks who drive taxis, who drive cars, we hear from drivers a lot that the changing environment in san francisco streets, the green paint, the new protected like lanes are confusing to people, and so the team that worked on developing those videos went out and they filmed every scene three times, once with a truck, once with a taxi and once with a passenger vehicle and in january, we finalized that vehicle, we have put it up on you tube and we will be integrating that into sfmta's biannual defensive driving training that is required for anybody who uses an agency car, department car, and we are also working at the same time as a part of that same prop k funneled program with the department of environment who does a lot of employee outreach throughout the city to put together in the next three months an encouragement program to get employees throughout the city whether or not they use city cars and city vehicles to watch the video. we really are trying to act on one of the communication goal that is we have identified before to use the tens of thousands of city employees that we have as best practice citizens, etc., so this video joins the large vehicle video which is available in english and translated online in chinese and spanish and the taxi vehicle, we are currently working on a version of this video that is specific to paratransit drivers who are large vehicle drivers that have many of the same passenger loading and unloading issues that taxis are and it's been requested by our paratransit programs, so we're working with them to develop that program we hope sometime this sum tore have that available and the paratransit operators are excite and had have already agreed to provide that. we are working in discussions with the mayor's office on disability looking at opportunities for developing some specific training materials about driving safely around seniors and people with disabilities. at this time, i would like to invite jerrold williams who is the manager of safety and talk about our defensive driving program. >> good afternoon, commissioners, a little about the driver safety program, it's a computer based program, 45 minutes, we currently had about 1500 employees has completed it. it's for all sfmta non-revenue drivers, and it covers basic city driving skills. the goal is for employees to take this training, as john said, every two years, which will incorporate the urban driving safety video. we also have a remedial training program which is a classroom program which is for those drivers that supervises the necessary training which from exhibiting unsafe acts or practices, or points, each of the police or in the pool program and the pool program allows an agency to have an overview of those employees that may have had traffic points taken or added to their license so we give them remedial training before they could get behind the wheel of a muni non-revenue vehicle, and they also have the program, the telematics program that will give the agency the overview to see if employees are speeding, it's hard breaking those bad habits which we can also identify those employees and get them in there for remedial training. thank you. >> john, i'm sorry, maybe i was somehow dozing off or something, so these are for the non-buses? >> yes, correct. er >> these are for employees like myself who may need to use an sfmta car to a place that's not easily reached. >> thank you. we have two more speakers, i was going to ask chair yee if you would like to take questions about the video and the non-revenue while mr. williams and i are up here or if you would like to hear from the taxis and muni and ask questions for the entire presentation? >> i had a quick question about this one because there are so many other city vehicles that are in this category. >> yes. >> and i'm just curious, you may not know the answer, but i'm just curious for the other fleets or other departments that have sudan, i guess, do they have similar training, do you know, or do they use your training? >> my understanding is the city administrator's office oversees that aspect of training, my understanding is that they are looking to copy, you know, respectfully, they use a of the training we are provide, they are putting defensive driver training for all the other city users currently, but i believe it's not -- i can get a better answer, i believe it's not currently offered but they are hoping to put in place. the airport has developed theirs, they're using the same click safety program we are using and i did receive an e-mail from the city administrator's office for copies of what we're using so they can use that to help develop their programs, they are working hard to do that, they are still in the development stage. >> good to know that, thank you. >> so, our next presenter, kate toran who's the director of taxis and [inaudible] services, to ensure our taxi drivers are driving safely intel. >> ( watching video ). >> what's the take away, slow down, even at 25 miles per hour, it takes a vehicle 85 feet to stop, that's almost 7 car lengths, slowing down makes collisions less severe. when a person is hit by a passenger vehicle going 20 miles per hour, the chance of death is 5%. if the same vehicle is going 40 miles per hour, that chance of death increases to 85%. slowing down doesn't cost much time, driving belined a person on a bike for a block takes about 9 extra second, stepping at a yellow light takes 30 extra seconds but hitting someone can cost you hours, days, weeks or your job, not to mention a life, so when you feel rushed, take a deep breath and take your time. ( video completed ). >> thank you. >> okay, thank you for taking your time. supervisor campos? >> thank you, so what is the name of the department again, it's taxis and what else, other services? >> accessible services. >> what does that mean? >> so, that includes our paratransit program, our muni discount i.d. program and the muni accessibility, so anything related to accessibility of the fixed route system. >> so, quick question, maybe there's somebody else o will address this but you, but where is the sort of uber, lift, where do they fit into this? >> well, they don't fit into the mta at this point, they are regulated by the public utilities commission, the california public utilities commission, so their regulations are set by the state and enforced by the cpuc. >> that's just a question i have, can we really achieve the goals of vision zero if we're doing everything we can on the taxicab side and yet nothing is being done with uber and lift, or at least not to the level that we would expect. >> yes, good point and i would agree and say we'd love to embrace the tnc drivers as part of this vision zero effort and provide the same or similar type of training and requirements for licensing and permitting. >> just as a quick follow-up, director tran is correct, there's nothing we can force them to do but we are in conversation with both uber and lift about creating some form of safety programming that they will guarantee will reach all of their drivers in return for them being able to kind of talk a little bit more about being a part of san francisco's vision zero program. it will be a voluntary program and the conversations are very initial, but one of our ultimate goals is to ensure that some short videos but also the passenger video and the taxi video are shown to all their drivers so they're receiving the same level of training. and now if there are no further questions about taxis, i would like to invite ken anderson who's the manager of training and instruction to give you an overbacker overview on how we train all of our muni drivers. >> good afternoon, my name's ken anderson,backer i'm the operate torx trainer manager, i want to talk about new operator training and some of the elements of that training initially. it's about a 9 week program and sometimes that stretches a little longer depending on how we overlay the template of the training program over the actual calendar days, but what we do is we align ourselves with the way the california dmv requires folks to be trained in order to get a driver's license, we're part of the employee testing program which is pursuant to a federal guideline for third party testing so here at muni, we are the ones that do the testing, the training and we sign off so that they can get their commercial driver's license so ne don't have to test once they go down to the dmv. with respect to that, the first thing they require is that they learn how to inspect the vehicle to see where [inaudible] make sure the brakes are working properly, headlights, all of the safety related apparatus, we spend about a week on that because there are a number of items on these vehicles that have to be inspected from the very front all the way to the engine as well as the lubricants and things of that nature to make sure it's running properly. once they learn that and tested on that and successful on that, they go on to skills training, that is consistent with what is required by the dmv and also the fair of mode regulations for commercial motor vehicle operators, they have to learn to back in it, shift lanes to it, maneuver around various items to ensure the back end of the vehicle clears, and then beyond that, they come in and they do classroom training and then we start our road training so there's a number of classroom days where they're learning all about our system in terms of fares, in terms of americans with disability act issues, all of these things they're learning in classroom and they're learning our routing system so they're out on the road, essentially three people on a bus with an instructor on a daily basis learning the system and so forth. and that's essentially what happens with our brand new operators, that's folks that are coming off the street who have never worked here before who's learning for the first time how to operate here. we do have new rail operators but they're not the same as a brand new bus operate torx those operators are folks who have been working for muni for a period of time, perhaps four years or know the, are already a transit operator but they're switching over to a new mode of transportation, they gain an additional 55 days of training to operate rail vehicle, they're learning basic information about how the rail system works, the overhead cabin area and the specifics for the particular vehicle they're going to be operate, whether it's our historic vehicles or lrv's and also our cable car system. so, that's the new operator aspect of it but we also have the in-service aspect of it, meaning that they're going to be getting a certain amount of training each and every year, so that depends also on state requirements as well, so the state mandates at a minimum 8 hours of training and most of the time classroom training and some behind theel whetraining for all operators regardless of whether it is a rubber carp vehicle or bus or a rail vehicle, and so that information or that training is specified in the california education code, and that would be 40085 of that which tells us exactly what they have to be trained on. then we also go over incident and collision prevention and we base that on national safety counsel standards whereas we teach a class to be operators with respect to what's preventable, how they can avoid certain incident and is those things cover not just the maneuvering of the vehicle but also backing incidents that occur on board the vehicles with passengers and so forth. we offer refresher training for rail operators, so in addition to the vtt or the in-service training i spoke of earlier, rail operators have a specific refresher requirement pursuant to the cpuc general orders, and that refresher training is based on that they learned initially which is the way the general order is written, so they are done -- they do this every two years and they also get a compliance check each year to ensure that they are indeed following those rules and regulations in the things they've learned to do. we offer what we call infrastructure and equipment training, so with us having so many operators, they also have a choice to be able to move from division to division, or across modes, so from motor coach to trolley coach and then to any of our rail vehicles including cable cars, with that comes new training, so a person is once operating a bus now oncebacker want tos operate a trolley coach, they go through about 17, 18 additional days of training so they now can attend with the overhead system, some of those folks go on from rubber tire vehicles to the rear wheel training, then they move to historical vehicle and is they're different in nature in terms of how they operate. they have to learn all associated apparatus of that, there's tremendous information that goes along with that, our cable car system is different than anything we have, than any other agency has so there's quite a bit to learn about the gripping mechanism of the cable car, the rope itself, so quite a bit and it's a rail vehicle so switches and things and signals are also a part of that. and we do what we call return to work, that's a person who's been off work for over a period of time who has essentially not practiced things or perhaps has forgotten, so in order to return them back o to* what we term the platform, we bring them back, go through this training all over again, depending on how long they've been out, they go back through the entire training program all over again, and then finally we have what's called special services and obviously a cable car would be one of those things, but we also institute a program called the negligent operator training program or essentially what this program is, is we take operators who have been driving for quite some time or operating quite some time, their skill set has diminished, their decision making has diminished, we try to catch that in the form of near missing, we bring them in and customize a program that's specific to whatever ails them at that time to try to correct those behaviors as well. we also do other training, it depends on the circumstance, sometimes there are events that happen in the city that require specific maneuvering or to keep the service going, so we will go out, take a look at that in order to help an operator maneuver around those things, in a nutshell, that's the program that our operators go through. >> for the cable car training, how many hours do they get trained on ringing that bell? >> [laughter]. >> some of those guys, they must get 100 hour training or something, they're really good. >> i think they do that on their own, but it is fair with respect to signaling, that is communicating from the conductor to the -- >> i know, is it one, two or three dings, right. >> yes. >> but i'm just curious, do you have different training for a bus driver and then you have the muni rail drivers, what -- do -- once one is trained in one thing, can they go on the other or vice vice-versa, do they stick to one thing or what? >> no, they tend to come and they spend their time, it's a seniority based program, so rail is kind of the sexy side of the house so to speak and everyone want tos go there, there's lots of folks who want to go there but they have to build that seniority before they can go to that division. >> i don't know if that happens or not, but this thing when one movers over to the rail side, does it for five years and then all of a sudden, you know, he or she wants to do actual work on overtime and overtime is on the bus side, do they get retrained at all, or can they just go over to bus side while being retrained? >> well, that's a special circumstance, we do have -- i mean, all the operators obviously on rail would be considered dual mode because they were bus operators first, but there are some that do like to move back and forth, they do get refresher training when it's necessary, most of the time when they land over there, they stay over there and force them back because what we don't have is the training breaks down, we can't call another train to pick them up, we have to get a bus and that's the person that's going to operate that bus, when we have special projects going on where they can't run the rail and they have to do bus substitution, normally those people will be brought in training for a refresher on motor coach all over again. >> my last question is, there are other vehicles that muni has, maybe this is a general question, i'm thinking for instance cable cars, there's always those trucks that come by and help them change the griper thing, that's what i remember, i remember those trucks and i assume there's tow trucks and so forth. >> yes. >> are there specific training for those particular drivers? >> they do receive training. i don't particularly provide that training other than for their licensing, so many of them come on and they don't have a commercial license, they'll come through our training program, go through that in order to get their commercial license and they'll return to their department where they get training specifically on that vehicle. >> so, does that belong to muni, those -- >> it does, but that's housed under maintenance. >> okay, so maybe the question is what kind of specific -- and, again, this might not be one for you to answer, but if anybody can answer this, for the maintenance truck drivers, what kind of training do they get? >> well, they would get the same as what i've described, it's without all of the stuff that operators have to learn in terms of the routes, the fares and things like that, they'll go through the initial training of pretrip inspection, the skills course setting, the road training and things like that in order to be able to qualify for the license, and then anything that they would get beyond that which is specifics to the job that would be handled in-house by that group, i hope i'm answering your question. e this ear qualified to operate a commercial motor vehicle once we finish with them, and once they get to their particular division, they'll get additional training on a specific piece of equipment and they handle that. >> i guess there was legislation that i believe supervisor kim introduced a while ago that asked specifically for the big vehicle training, is that true, supervisor kim, or commissioner kim, and is it relevant to these type of vehicles? >> sorry, john [inaudible], mta is committed to making sure that everybody drive as large vehicle, whether it's a bus or a maintenance vehicle or whatever else views the large vehicle training video. we've worked with ken, you saw the list of regulatory training requirements, so we're working to get that into the muni training but as these drivers go through the training that we do and [inaudible] as well. >> thank you, any other questions? >> just a quick question. do you know how much the city -- i don't know if you have numbers for the last five years or so, pays in terms of claims involving drivers? >> i don't know that off the top of my head, that's a number we could look for and get back to you on. >> thank you, and if you could give us not only any court case where we've had to pay but also any torte claim, you know, i mean, before it gets to court, and then if there's any other settlement. thank you. >> i'll get you everything we can. >> thank you very much. seeing no other questions, are there any -- are we finished? >> no, i was remiss in my talking about the video, i just did want to thank both the board and staff for their -- i mentioned prop k, i didn't thank you for your support on that because you guys are key partners i think in putting together this presentation, you know, there was a comment earlier about agencies working together but i think it also shows the many different departments, we're a large agency, sfmta and we work together in many ways and you've been models for the city. >> that's refreshing to hear. and it's okay, folks, if you want to remind me that i should be calling my colleagues commissioners, not supervisors here. let's see, public comment? come on up. >> hi again, commissioners, i'm cat thy delucca with walk san francisco, and i'm here today to urge you to consider adopting a policy that would require all city drivers to get training, required safety training on a regular basis, on an annual basis every single year. the tragedy that happened to tu phan, she was hit by a city employee driving a city vehicle, that driver -- i think another part of the training should also include letting city drivers know what they're exempt from or not exempt from because the driver who hit and killed tu phan was making a left turn where the left turns are restricted but there are exempting to these turn and is he may thought he was exempt as a city driver, so it's imperative that the city lets its employees know what they are exempt from and not exempt from. the employees deserve that. this gentleman is going the spend the rest of his life knowing what his actions resulted in, so we think the best way to go about this is to have a citywide policy that says all citywide drivers would get this training, a robust safety training on a regular basis and i applaud all of the effort that is the different departments are doing now, but it seems like we need one consistent program. thank you. >> thank you for mentioning that because prior to the meeting just talking about the agenda, i was asking pretty similar questions about who's presenting and who's not and i'm wondering if there's any universal sort of policy that we have in the city that would make it mandatory for everybody to -- pretty similar if not the same training so i am a person moving in that direction, you i want to give people an opportunity, there's going to be -- i want to ask for a ko*n wans of this item later because i realize not everyone's here to present, so i want to give them a chance and then move on to policy if necessary, so thank you for bringing that up. >> yeah, thank you for your leadership. >> hello, commissioners, i i want to mention there was a fatality two months in san francisco of somebody who was hit over a year ago, he was a member of the cable car crew, at his funeral service at grace cathedral was tom maguire and ed ris k*in, myself and his family members because ray died and what came of this and it's unfortunate, it takes a fatality, i have heard and maybe he can confirm this, it is mandatory for all cable car crew to wear fluorescent vests on with vertical white stripes on them, that's a great decision, it's unfortunate it took a fatality, two were hit but ray passed away this year. thank you. >> any other public comments? seeing none, public comment is now closed. any other comments from my colleagues? if none, could i have a motion to continue this item to the call of the chair? >> motion to continue to the call of the chair? >> okay, with no objection, motion passes, thank you. let's go back to item number 5 i think. >> item 5, update on speeding education -- >> hold on, why are you waging up here? >> to give item number 5. >> oh, sorry. okay. >> item 5, an update on speeding education campaign, this is an information item. >> good afternoon, so my name is ar y*el and i'm a planning analyst with the sfmta, i'm going the present on item 5, the speeding education campaign, this is a campaign we're working on with the sf police department and the department of public health. we're focusing on speed, as we know, excessive speeding is really especial to fatalities, you have seen this image in front of you, we know the imperative of people getting to drive the speed limb, people need to slow down and it will eliminate the deaths, so we have three goals for this effort, the first is to reduce speeding on san francisco streets, the second is for there to be a reduction in injuries and fatalities of people who walk and bike caused by vehicles who drive too fast, this is funded by an active transportation grant, a key focus is on speeding and people who bike and walk, and to increase bicycling and walking in san francisco is the third goal, the idea that they will create this safer environment that we should see people more willing to bike and walk on our streets, we're ants paying there will be other outcomes as a result of this effort, we're seeing [inaudible] and an increase commitment for speed compliance. sorry. and also social norms that are more supportive of slow speeds. so, how are we going to do this, how are we going to really reduce speeds, we're going to do this by changing the culture that's around speeding websinger have a cull xhur that says speed ising acceptable, it's okay, it's an appropriate way to get to point a to point b, that's not acceptable and it's not the culture we want to have in san francisco, that's what we're trying to do is change the culture, so today i'm going to briefly go through the four components of the campaign and these are enhanced enforcement, education and media, grass roots organize sagging and evaluation, the core of this campaign is enforcement and media and this is because we know that enforcement education work best when paired, they strengthen each other, enforcement provides the general deterrence that there's consequence, education gets at those behaviors and norms that get people to speed in the first place, so much of that decision to speed is based on those attitudes and how they think about expedia which is why media and education is so important to this effort. is first aspect of the campaign that i'll talk about is the enhanced enforcement and a piece of the enhanced enforcement is high visibility enforcement, that's essentially enforcement that is visible, frequent and proactive and it is achieved by having lots of police officers at the same time on a predictable basis and also through publicity elements, whether that's a press conference, billboards or radio ads and the visibility things like a sobriety check point, so the visibility sign, so for this campaign, we're going to have 132 extra hours of week of enforcement, 60 of these hours are going to be this high advise nlt enforcement, we're going to have 12 police officers doing enforcement encore doors, i'll go over those corridors in just a minute. we'll be iteming this enforcement with edge kaix, with media, with press conferences to get that strong message out that speeding is not acceptable in san francisco. in addition, we're also going to have 72 hours of week of enhanced enforcement citywide and using this additional enforcement to really further spread the message and get out that message that speeding is not acceptable, that we do not approve that in san francisco. these are the corridors we collect selected for the high visibility enforcement effort, we used data to select these corridors and worked with our steering committee, the walk sf, [inaudible] to determine which corridors are prioritized, these are corridor that is tha* are on the vision zero high injury radar, corridors where we've seen high rates of speeding, we want to get the message out, we selected corridors with high traffic volumes so people can see what is happening and see and see and hear these message and is finally we selected corridors which lidar enforcement, i want to emphasize that the enforcement that's happening on these corridors, it's really about making that big impact, the education corridors are going to go out strong and say speeding can't happen if san francisco, you need to slow down and save lives, that's the focus, it's not revenue raising, it's to get out that message that we can't have speeding and those extra 72 hours will have the additional enforcement that will be citywide will amplify and spread those messages to all different part of the city, through this campaign sh we're having this heightened message and spreading that every wherever. we'll be combining the enforcement component with education and media and we're going to be having billboards and radio ads and the like throughout the city, we've hired mig as our campaign consultant, we need to do research and understand the behaviors that residents have towards speeding, what motivates people to speed, is it about a pleasure people associate with speed, is it lifestyle, is it getting somewhere fast, is it because people don't think speed ising a big deal, we need to understand what motivates people to speed, so we can change that turn around speeding, we're going to be focus groups and survey, best practices research on speed related campaigns and just in generating we're going to be looking at what makes a positive -- productive, successful road safety campaign, we're going to use the learning from this effort to devise a content of our aniseed messages, so from may through august, we're going to be developing our media and outreach strategies, in august, we're be launching back to school enforcement, you can think of it sz a mini version of this larger campaign, we'll be following this up in september where we're going to be launching our major media component, we'll start working through the department of public health with community groups to be doing targeted on the ground culturally appropriate background around speeding and in october, we'll be doing the citywide component, we'll be doing education first, it's about sustaining our culture and we want that to be strong about that. er >> i have a question, you're -- and -- you're giving so much information in this short time that i'm trying to absorb this. in regards to people's behavior and why they do it and part of it, i can speculate maybe and there's more traffic in people's behavior and it becomes worse. there's times of the year i think where there might be -- the traffic is a little bit lighter than others, like spring break. >> sure. >> and winter break or whatever, i'm wondering if one would look at evaluating people's reasons for speeding or not speeding, are they speeding more -- maybe it's not me evaluating why they're doing it, but extrapolating -- during those periods where you have fewer cars on the road, are we seeing fewer tickets for speeding? >> yeah. >> i'm just curious. >> i don't know whether it's something we can figure out, that's something we can look at in our research, again, what motivates people to speed, is the traffic slow, are you trying to keep up with the cars that are around you, trying to get at those behaviors that cause people to speed. in our evaluation, we can look at stuff like that, traffic volume and is the impact on traffic values on speeding behavior, that's something we can consider. >> okay. so, for more information about this, where were we? so, we'll be laufrnling again in october with our citywide enforcement and we'll have 52 weeks of the education and the enforcement. so, again, this evaluation component, we're going to be doing a really comprehensive rigorous evaluation of the campaign, we know if we're successful in reaching our goals, if we reached a large population of san francisco residents with our message, if those residents change their perception, started thinking differently about speeding and if that change in perception led to a change in behavior, are we seeing slower speeds on our street sos this is what dph will be leading through their evaluation effort. and finally although this campaign doesn't have any specific edgebacker engineering or policy aspects to it, vision vao*er row is about being systematic, thinking comprehensively and in a coordinated fashion, and how does this education effort lay were the enforcement, how the different efforts we're doing are all complementing and supporting each other through this effort. i'm really in the end kind of building up support for safer streets, this is a spectrum of prevention a tool that you might have seen here and the change on the complex safety issue, we really have to make changes on the micro and macro level to sustain change, we're going to be using this campaign to get public support for safe streets, this is an enforcement education campaign with 132 hours of week of extra speed safety enforcement with an enhanced media component. >> are you done? >> yeah. >> any questions? seeing none, thank you for your presentation, hopefully we'll get some good results out of this. let's see, any public comments on this item? >> we can't finish without me coming up one more time, i'm kathy delauding ka from walk san francisco, good afternoon again, commissioners. i'm really excited the city is addressing speed, it's the top collision factor in the city and walk sf is on the steering committee, so we thank ar y*el and mta staff they're doing on 2 campaign, i wanted to mention here, i thought it would be a good opportunity to mention some concerns we have about vision zero enforcement and equity, it's something that sort of we're thinking about more and more as we continue our vision vao*er row work is are we being equitable in our enforcement efforts as part of vision sao*er rho and specifically we're a bit concerned about sending police into communities of color and low-income communities in the name of vision vao*er row, so in this program, one of the corridors that is legated is in the bayview, and you know, that community is still dealing with the after math of the shooting of mario woods, so the question is, is it a good idea to send police into that community, is it going to aggravate a situation this's already tense, is it going to benefit the community members there, so i just wanted to raise this issue as something we're thinking about and we're bringing it to the steering committee to talk about but i think it's really important to think about that with equity. are the fines for speeding as part of this campaign going to disproportionately negatively impact low-income communities, so we don't have this in our vision zero policy, we don't say explicitly that we're going the make sure that our enforcement is equitable, but i think we can still take actions that do that, so maybe instead of having enforcement in some of these community, we do education, maybe we have speed feedback signs instead of officers on the ground, soit's just something we're thinking about and talking about and i just wanted to raise it here as an issue that should be addressed. thank you. >> thank you, any other public comments? seeing none, public comment is now closed. okay, where are we? item number 7? >> item 7, introduction of new items, this is an information item. >> okay. there's no new items, let's move on, item number 8. >> item 8, general public comment. >> heaven and earth, man kind and material things gather as methodology for [inaudible] and part race of beneficial usages, one

acknowledgement of the special places around san francisco bay. well, there is something sort of innate in human beings, i think, that tend to recognize a good spot when you see it, a spot that takes your breath away. this is one of them. >> an icon of the new deal. >> we stood here a week ago and we heard all of these dignitaries talk about the symbol that coit tower is for san francisco. it's interesting for those of us in the pioneer park project is trying to make the point that not only the tower, not only this man-built edifice here is a symbol of the city but also the green space on which it sits and the hill to which is rests. to understand them, you have to understand the topography of san francisco. early days of the city, the city grows up in what is the financial district on the edge of chinatown. everything they rely on for existence is the golden gate. it's of massive importance to the people what comes in and out of san francisco bay. they can't see it where they are. they get the idea to build a giant wooden structure. the years that it was up here, it gave the name telegraph hill. it survived although the structure is long gone. come to the 1870's and the city has growed up remarkably. it's fueled with money from the nevada silver mines and the gold rush. it's trying to be the paris of the west. now the beach is the suburbs, the we will their people lived on the bottom and the poorest people lived on the top because it was very hard getting to the top of telegraph hill. it was mostly lean-to sharks and bits of pieces of houses up here in the beginning. and a group of 20 businessmen decided that it would be better if the top of the hill remained for the public. so they put their money down and they bought four lots at the top of the hill and they gave them to the city. lily hitchcock coit died without leaving a specific use for her bequest. she left a third of her estate for the beautify indication of the city. arthur brown, noted architect in the city, wanted for a while to build a tower. he had become very interested in persian towers. it was the 1930's. it was all about machinery and sort of this amazing architecture, very powerful architecture. he convinced the rec park commission that building a tower in her memory would be the thing to do with her money. >> it was going to be a wonderful observation place because it was one of the highest hills in the city anywhere and that that was the whole reason why it was built that high and had the elevator access immediately from the beginning as part of its features. >> my fear's studio was just down the street steps. we were in a very small apartment and that was our backyard. when they were preparing the site for the coit tower, there was always a lot of harping and griping about how awful progress was and why they would choose this beautiful pristine area to do them in was a big question. as soon as the coit tower was getting finished and someone put in the idea that it should be used for art, then, all of a sudden, he was excited about the coit tower. it became almost like a daily destination for him to enjoy the atmosphere no matter what the politics, that wasn't the point. as long as they fit in and did their work and did their own creative expression, that was all that was required. they turned in their drawings. the drawings were accepted. if they snuck something in, well, there weren't going to be any stoolies around. they made such careful little diagrams of every possible little thing about it as though that was just so important and that they were just the big frog. and, actually, no one ever felt that way about them and they weren't considered something like that. in later life when people would approach me and say, well, what did you know about it? we were with him almost every day and his children, we grew up together and we didn't think of him as a commie and also the same with the other. he was just a family man doing normal things. no one thought anything of what he was doing. some of them were much more highly trained. it shows, in my estimation, in the murals. this was one of the masterpieces. families at home was a lot more close to the life that i can remember that we lived. murals on the upper floors like the children playing on the swings and i think the little deer in the forest where you could come and see them in the woods and the sports that were always available, i think it did express the best part of our lives. things that weren't costing money to do, you would go to a picnic on the beach or you would do something in the woods. my favorite of all is in the staircase. it's almost a miracle masterpiece how he could manage to not only fit everyone, of course, a lot of them i recognized from my childhood -- it's how he juxtaposed and managed to kind of climb up that stairway on either side very much like you are walking down a street. it was incredible to do that and to me, that is what depicted the life of the times in san francisco. i even like the ones that show the industrial areas, the once with the workers showing them in the cannery and i can remember going in there and seeing these women with the caps, with the nets shuffling these cans through. my parents had a ranch in santa rosa and we went there all summer. i could see these people leaning over and checking. it looked exactly like the beautiful things about the ranch. i think he was pretty much in the never look back philosophy about the coit. i don't think he ever went to visit again after we moved from telegraph hill, which was only five or six years later. i don't think he ever had to see it when the initials are scratched into everything and people had literally destroyed the lower half of everything. >> well, in my view, the tower had been pretty much neglected from the 1930's up until the 1980's. it wasn't until then that really enough people began to be alarmed about the condition of the murals, the tower was leaking. some of the murals suffered wear damage. we really began to organize getting funding through the arts commission and various other sources to restore the murals. they don't have that connection or thread or maintain that connection to your history and your past, what do you have? that's one of the major elements of what makes quality of life in san francisco so incredible. when people ask me, and they ask me all the time, how do you get to coit tower, i say you walk. that's the best way to experience the gradual elevation coming up above the hustle and bustle of the city and finding this sort of oasis, if you will, at the top of the hill. when i walk through this park, i look at these brick walls and this lawn, i look at the railings around the murals. i look at the restoration and i think, yeah, i had something to do with that. learning the lessons, thank you, landmarks meet landmarks. the current situation at pioneer park and coit tower is really based in public and private partnership. it was the citizens who came together to buy the land to keep it from being developed. it was lily hitchcock coit to give money to the city to beautify the city she loved of the park project worked to develop this south side and still that's the basis of our future project to address the north side. >> thank you. >> i'd like to welcome everyone to the small

slowing just after you get onto the span but it clears up by the time you reach the middle of that flat part. it looks good over to the peninsula. on the maps i can show you the dunbarton bridge is also a little bit slow and 880 is better than normal from hayward to fremont so it's a mixed bag out there, some commutes are lighter than usual, others look more normal but on this friday i think you will probably, if you work monday through friday, you're probably thinking i don't care, let's just get through this. >>> 7:45. let's go to rosemary. >> you're right. we have made it to the final business day of the week and it's a good looking day. it will be a little breezy for some, could irritate for our allergy sufferers, could have a bit of a bad day if the breeze is in your neighborhood. it is going to be a little bit strong over our hills tonight. a wind advisory a possibility. national weather service has already decided they will issue that for the hills. it will go until the overnight and then into the morning hours. take a look 59 what's happening right now, you can see all of the cloud cover that continues to spill into california. we have that northwesterly breeze and a westerly breeze expected for your afternoon, have to pull back to show you the ridge that is building over the pacific and that high pressure, 1300 miles off the coastline. it will be -- as we get into the bay area weekend, that in addition to a system that is riding over -- or right on over the top of it and then dropping into areas of nevada and right down the border of california and nevada. that will actually spark the possibility of showers for tahoe at times, even thunderstorms in the forecast on sunday for lake tahoe if you're going in that direction. but for us, it's going to warm us up. going to bring the north- northeast breeze and we are looking at again very gusty conditions over the hills at some point later tonight and into tomorrow morning. here's your

a look at what's going on. we have, again, partly cloudy skies in store for today and here's a look at the setup we are expecting. so the ridge of high pressure remains over the pacific, strengthening our way a little bit. you can see the wind bars here, we do have that north and northwesterly breeze in store for today, but on the backside of california, we have a system that will be shifting and moving down into the weekend and that is going to switch that west northwesterly flow into a north northeasterly flow and we know when that happens, it drives the temperatures, so by tomorrow a notable warmup in store. for today, a lot like yesterday, a lot of 70s in the forecast and windy in some areas. by tonight and into tomorrow, a wind advisory for our northeast bay hills as well as the

okay. there are some slowdowns there, rosemary, thank you very much. let's go outside and take a look at what we have at the bay bridge toll plaza. been a little bit of improvement. i can tell by looking at the 880 ramp, that has emptied out rather nicely and when that happens, that means we are on the way to improvement so if you're trying to get into san francisco and you have a little bit of the luxury of waiting around, it's probably going to get better as the morning wears on here. taking a look at 880, slow traffic has appeared on 880 from san leandro up to oakland as it normally does. what's gotten better is contra costa county, highway 4 is a little bit slow still but 680 looks good from the benicia bridge. >>> we are beginning our 8:00 hour developing news from milpitas where early this morning there was an officer- involved shooting. it's under investigation. investigators say a suspect was shot and wounded. ktvu's janine de la vega, you have been there all morning. you have new developments. >> reporter: well, in the last 30 minutes, dave, they opened up both directions of calaveras boulevard. they were previously closed here. the one thing that is still shut down there where you see all the police cars is the northbound on-ramp to 680 here. that's still closed. it looks like they have also brought in heavy equipment to clear away some brush. we are not sure if that's because there is still some evidence over there that they need to look for but they have been very meticulous in their investigation. it was a very large crime scene that stretched all the way across calaveras boulevard here to this motel where they just took down some crime tape. now, this shooting happened just before 1:00 this morning, an officer made a traffic stop on a cadillac and pulled into the parking lot of the executive inn. police say the officer and the suspect both exited their cars shortly after the shooting occurred. we don't know if the suspect had a weapon or what made the officer shoot. we are told the suspect ran across calaveras to the northbound 680 on-ramp, police caught up with him in the bushes there. motel guests say they heard two to three gunshots, some ran to the balcony and saw the suspect bleeding. >> he had a white shirt on and in that area, it's kind of wooded so the white stands out. you can see the area in red, you know and a few people that were standing there was like, oh, look, he's slumped over. they shot him. >> reporter: that suspect was taken to the hospital where he is now being treated. his condition is unknown. police tell us he is a 27-year- old latino man from san jose, he has three outstanding no bail warrants out for his arrest. the officer involved was not injured. police are questioning him to figure out how this all unraveled. police say they may release some more details later today. as far as that entrance to northbound 680 from calaveras, we are being told that it may open by 9:00 a.m. again, that could change because we have been getting all sorts of time estimates from police throughout the morning. but right now they are saying possibly by 9:00. back to you. >> janine de la vega, thank you. >>> time now 8:05. the chp investigating a deadly overnight crash in san ramon. it happened shortly before midnight on interstate 680 near bollinger canyon road. the chp says the driver of a

also new this morning, san francisco police chief greg suhr will hold a news conference at 11:00. he is going to announce new plan to fight bias within the police department. we are told the plan includes having all police officers attend antiharassment training effective immediately. this comes after the release of more racist and homophobe text -- homophobic text messages. the associated press says these transcripts include san francisco police officers ridiculing african americans in ferguson, missouri where police shot and killed an unarmed african-american man. >>> turning now to the race for the white house. violence broke out last night outside a donald trump campaign stop in costa mesa in orange county. take a look at the pictures you see here someone jumping up and down over and over again on the top of a police car. he slips down, dents the hood of the vehicle and shatters the back window. about 20 people were arrested for disturbing the peace and blocking traffic. here you see someone doing doughnuts in a car in the middle of the street. police tried to disperse this crowd. inside donald trump's rally republican frontrunner revved up supporters by lashing out against democratic frontrunner hillary clinton over issues such as benghazi and the investigation into her e-mails as secretary of state. >> you know, hillary, the crooked hillary, right, crooked, she

ktvu's christien kafton live there outside the hyatt regency where the convention is being held. you talked to the police chief in burlingame. after the pictures we saw last night, he took an extra step today, didn't he? yes. in the last hour we have seen marked increase in the police presence here at the hyatt regency in burlingame. you might see some of the officers over there and some of the protesters who have already shown up here. the chief tells me he wants to ensure this is a safe event for the convention attendees and the protesters alike. >> when we determined what we were facing today we put together an ops plan and so we have an incident action plan to address our needs. these plans, obviously, would address any -- the same type of behavior that happened in costa mesa. >> reporter: in a matter of hours the convention will launch with a breakfast kicked off with trump. john kasich scheduled to speak at a banquet dinner tonight. ted cruz scheduled to headline tomorrow's luncheon and carly fiorina set to deliver the keynote speech tomorrow night. protesters have pledged to come out in force. surrounding agencies are making sure this event safe for convention goers and protesters. police tell me they are expecting anywhere from 500 to 3000 protesters. they say currently their plan is flexible, they are even considering closing down old bayshore highway where the hyatt is located if they need to. convention goers, though, they are focused on the political battlefield and say the state's 172 delegates would be pivotal in deciding the eventual republican nominee. >> depending on what happens in indiana and the other states that are remaining, this election could be decided in california. >> reporter: burlingame police say they do have a plan in place to handle the expected protesters. they say that that plan includes a plane flying overhead to give them perspective on the crowd. they also say they are prepared to shut down old bayshore highway if necessary to accommodate the protesters and ensure the safety of everyone. the chief stressing to me that he wants this to be a safe event for convention goers and for protesters alike. again, we are expecting trump to start the luncheon at about noon today. we are hearing the first protesters again really set to show up at 9:00 but we are already starting to see a handful of protesters out here already. the chief of police again telling me that he wants to see this safe for everyone. >> christien, we will bring you back for the nines to see how that situation changes, thank you. >>> hillary

at one of the busiest commutes in the bay and 28 minutes not bad for this commute this time of the morning. as you drive through to the mccarthy maze and to the bay bridge toll plaza. when you get to the toll plaza you will see things are definitely improving as you drive into san francisco, that 880 ramp has become very nice, no major problems there. we are looking at the peninsula via our map system. little bit of slow traffic in san mateo and a little bit on the peninsula but for the most part things are doing well into an uncrowded silicon valley. >>> 8:16 filling in for steve, it's

board of supervisors approved the realignment in the communities supervision implementation plan part of the plan to develop a one-stop shop or center for individuals with criminal histories and the collaborative practice two r between probation and community services you know that are models ballistic the mental health and we have the department to provide details details on that contract one of the reasons we want to go ahead and sponsor those two items was for the most part make sure there is a reliance on the cast services we believe the authorization of those two items will do that i want to share i'm sure our budget analyst will address this that since the budget legislative report coming out came out since that time to now real estate and the provisions have been working with the analyst to make sure that the maementd the analyst proposed are incorporated we come to respectfully request that body entertain the amendments and hopefully their acceptable those amendments speak have to me in regards to good governance giving the city the opportunity to leave the lease should they find consolidating the properties the city is getting an out if necessary the second component better loin this to the capital improvement plan that we have that is substantially being going through the process of figuring out the next steps in looking at added real estate and how we use to sufficiently. >> just to be clear a request to amend item 7. >> yes. file 1602 and should hopefully have a copy of the draft with underlying the changes before you. >> okay great mr. rose, can we go to your report. for items six and seven and. >> yes. mr. chairman, and members of the committee on page 12 of our report we note as shown in table 2 the city's rent payments under the proposed lease are 8.7 percent less than the city's reimbursement to the administration fees under the current lease in table 28.7 percent reflects a reduction of $80,000 plus the first year on page 13 of our report the report that the proposed amendment that is under file 1608 not to exceed $802 million plus from the million dollars plus to $11 million plus and that's for the one year extension as shown in table 3 on page 14 of our report on the bottom of page 14 we note to the rent to be paid by the city to pb b for 6th street over the 10 year lease is $9 million plus that is shown no table 4 on page 15 and in addition the city's real estate division estimates one million dollars plus in operating costs including the securities for others costs over the 10 years the total cost is $10 million plus on page 15 of our report we report to you that previously we submitted a report to the budget and finance committee this was on april 30th, 2014, that the adult probation department provides programs at the 6th street that or similar to the programs provided by i did sheriff's department on oak grove street so for that reason we have made recommendations proposed amendments for our consideration on page 16 of our report first, we recommend you approve the figure it out amendment between the probation department and lc a and that's file 160782, and, secondly, we recommend you amend the file approving the lease between the city and d b d for 464, 6th street in that represents to amend we request that the capital improvement plan committee evaluate the alternatives to the probation long term lease for the facility as part of evaluation of the sheriff's department and adult probation department and incorporate those with the city capital improvement plan open capital plan and the second part of the amendment to states the real estate division and pb b the landlord have arlgd to add a cost providing the city with the right to terminate the lease with one week's in inspiring on june 30th, 2018, finally we recommend you approve that resolution that is file as amended i'll be happy to respond to questions. >> just to be clear the sponsor is everyone accepting of those recommendations okay supervisor yee. >> yes. thank you thank you, mr. rose for your report. >> i'm glad that you rent will be reduced i just have a question in regards to the existing structure before the new lease there's on page 12 of our report i don't know who is going to be able to answer that but i'm looking at the chart of table 2 and dollars the rent page of the landlord and then the city administrative - administration freeing fee which looks like a close to 15 percent he guessed guess somewhere around there i'm curious is that a typical structure where the city the fee and what's the fee do i mean who - what does it pay for. >> i will or i want to clarify for the committee the real estate low respond supervisors this is a the lease between the landlord and the nonprofit so this never came before the board of supervisors the budget analyst never analyzed that previously i want to clarify that and let the department of real estate. >> so as state the administrative fees although a city lease is the service provider and the landlords master lease between themselves we did reimburse that our leases don't have administrative fees sometimes they do it is rare when we 2340r7 one it is usually because tenant improvements for the capital plan and lead certification they have to help the department or the firm get to that point it is based on the ti cost or the improvement costs 19 it can, an onsite manager that is required by the department to be there to either for the service provided or manage the building in those cases it is rare in my short temple you are or my assistant to real estate i've only seen one administrative fee a 5 percent fee for ti and recertification that the department will have handed. >> in this particular contract i guess what does it pay for - >> the prior, the prior again there is no administrative fee in the current the prior i can only guess i don't know what their negotiations were about back then but assume since tis that pertains to them. >> and can you - >> oh, we have someone from the department. >> so i can understand the ti. >> i thought it was treasure island. >> my name is learning the director of reindustry for the adult probation i want to clarify as part of professional services contract an indirect rate the indirect rate for the rents 24/7 l cac and the landlord was 15 percent you're seeing under $21,000 is the indirect rate for the tlc. >> okay. >> interesting. >> i'm sort of so glad we're not seeing this anymore it is seems odd the indirect rates we just pay basically a monthly rent or whatever how you pay 2 i can't see charging 15 percent. >> sure it was part - do you want to speak it was part of original negotiation we're looking forward to the next phase that a much more favorable lease and taught department of real estate. >> thank you and again, i would question is more if this were an ongoing cost i hope that real estate will look at more the clerk will take the roll with other structured leases unless people can explain why their charging in this case one and $20,000 a year to receive point of privilege e - pay rent. >> i'm diane the director of finance currently the lease resides in the service contract and -- excuse-me. the services contract pays for administration of lease and so it was a past due and we're currently trying to separate the lease which will at this point not have an administrative fee and a service of $80,000 as a result of the change moving forward we'll no problem not have an administrative fee for the rent. >> so - i'm uncomfortable why would we're moving forward and not charging the one and $20,000 fee also you don't need it i really not understanding i ran nonprofits and got money from grants and we pay our lease i'm not sure we ever did that i understand so basically l t d was charging to administer the costs of services so, now we're moving forward with removing it from the service contract it will not be an administrative fee. >> okay. i mean again, this is sort of past history at the point we need to go look at that piece more closely with other types of structures and not discover is after the fact thank you very much and again, people i want to make sure that has nothing to do with with me not wanting to support this. >> thank you. >> okay. colleagues any questions or comments okay kansas public safety & emergency services anyone wish to comment on item 6 or 7 okay seeing none, public comment is closed so colleagues, we have amendment in front of us and amendment by mr. rose like to entertain a motion. >> through the chair i believe the amendments are for item 7; correct? and i want to make a motion to send forward item 6 i move we send it to the full board with a positive recommendation thank you very much colleagues item number 8 is sponsored by supervisor mar who is a few minutes away so we'll go into recess for possiblyarri >> all right. everyone welcome back we're out of recess i want to announce

seniors and senior disabilities it is a need for better home care for thousands tens of thousands of what we call upper poor seniors and disabled people i want to acknowledge this is out of 5 years of analysis organizing and advocate for senior and domestic workers organizing a number of us gathered with thousands of seniors and health care workers in million dollar in 2011 and we kicked off a campaign and the best frame from a gentleman the authors of dignity preparing for the elderly boom in changing america last year 33 she visited san francisco and many cities around the country i think she advocates for a holistic that is transformational she talks about the aging boom and the senior boom not only in san francisco but cities throughout the country and advocates for helping the sick and people with disabilities in a way that transformers policies not just locally but nationally so we improve the quality of life as people age and people get sicker at different time and people with

controller's office report and association of area government our senior population and disabilities will increase from thirty to 40 percent over the next decades our challenge is creating an aging friendly center and 80 a strategic to keep up and transformational policies that addresses the needs of growing seniors in our population in our city we need institutions that nonprofits and grassroots to help to create more amp in process to call ourselves a friendly city this is a growing issue not only here but nationally hawaii has subsidize home care for thousands in that state and relieve the burden on many families and we'll hear public testimony if seniors and people with disabilities and families how they grapple with the demographic change and the stresses on many of the community so similar i directed the budget analyst to conduct an analysis for helping seniors and people with disabilities keep pace with the private home care and as our friends across jaushgsz coalition and jobs for judges and many others are fighting for living wage protection for home care provider and make sure that everyone that needs care has access to home care many don't have the funds but to acknowledge that our challenge in san francisco amidst the rapidly growing senior and disabilities popping to create programs that keep with the boom and especially with people with disabilities that are poor and unable to afford home care and others needs we'll hear from dos the budget analyst office as well as the controller's office who will present findings from their report and reports if our amazing long term care coordinating council dos will present on the services for seniors and people wit
