8. Citizens’ Advisory Council Report

Daniel Murphy, chairman, Citizen’s Advisory Council, presented the report. 

Director Beach asked staff to discuss the Clipper Card transfer policy with the Board.

9. Public Comment

Jim Gillespie, Yellow Cab stated that later this year there will be a Public Convenience and Necessity Hearing.  He provided the Board with a report that was put together by the manager of their radio room dispatch office that shows that there is a need for more taxis in San Francisco.

Roxanne Stachon stated that children were being left unattended because of the SFMTA’s policy of not issuing a residential parking permit to childcare providers.  She called the policy ridiculous and unsafe.   Caretakers have to leave children alone for ten minutes every two hours.  This is criminal, wrong and unsafe.  The policy is unbalanced for working families.  There are many exceptions to the Residential Parking Permit policy. Childcare is essential service. 

Chairman Nolan referred the matter raised by Ms. Stachon to the Policy and Governance Committee.

Herbert Weiner welcomed Ms. Brinkman to the Board.  He also welcomed the partial restoration of service that was stolen.  He stated that the SFMTA should go beyond that and restore the 26 Valencia and the 2 Clement lines.  The change to the 2 Clement line wreaked havoc on 15th Ave.  The SFMTA thinks primarily in terms of dollars and cents rather than on impact. 

Sean Keighan, Residential Builders Association, stated that permits for new construction are down and unemployment is up in the building trades. Both the Mayor and the Board of Supervisors have discussed how to stimulate the industry during this difficult time.  Bagged meter rates are a new fee.  While some downtown projects can absorb the fee, smaller projects can’t.  

Daniel Phillips stated that he endorsed relocation of the Muni stop at 19th and Holloway.  There are plans to take a trolley line into Parkmerced and terminate it two stops further.  All of this is contingent on the approval of development plans.   Builders made a generous offer to fund the construction of the new stations and trackways.

John O’Connor, Residential Builders Association discussed lost meter revenue.  The industry can’t withstand the proposed fees.  Transportation and infrastructure fees are already included.  The construction industry has been really impaired.  There was no notification about the increase.  There should have been stakeholders meetings.  He asked the SFMTA to meet with the industry. 

Angus McCarthy, Residential Builders Association, expressed appreciation that the item had been continued.  Construction workers don’t have the luxury of monitoring code amendments through an ad placed in the paper so they had short notice.   He urged the SFMTA to bring the stakeholders to the table to discuss the rates. Everyone is trying to find incentives to get projects off the ground.  These rates will hurt us. 

Dave Dippel expressed appreciation to the SFMTA for helping to mitigate the problem on 15th Ave between Geary and Clement.  The intersection of Park Presidio and Geary is difficult and problems are spilling into the neighborhood.  The SFMTA has to address how to allow left-hand turns to and from Park Presidio and Geary.  It could be accomplished by a left-hand turn from Geary onto Park Presidio with a turn similar to the one on Stanyan at Fell. 

THE FOLLOWING MATTERS BEFORE THE SAN FRANCISCO MUNICIPAL TRANSPORTATION AGENCY BOARD OF DIRECTORS ARE RECOMMENDED FOR ACTION AS STATED BY THE SFMTA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR/CEO OR CITY ATTORNEY WHERE APPLICABLE.  EXPLANATORY DOCUMENTS FOR ALL CALENDAR ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR REVIEW AT 1 SOUTH VAN NESS AVE. 7th FLOOR.
