DIVISION: Sustainable Streets Division
BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
Amending Division II of the Transportation Code by amending Section 101 to add the definition of "alley" formerly contained in the Traffic Code; Section 201 to authorize the City Traffic Engineer to: (1) remove unauthorized color curb markings or other markings that regulate vehicle parking, (2) indicate by signs or markings where vehicle parking is prohibited within fifteen feet of a fire hydrant, and (3) designate on-street bicycle and all motorcycle parking spaces following a public hearing; Section 302 to update two changes to the Transportation Code Penalty Schedule table; and Section 702 to add and delete locations that are subject to certain speed limits.
SUMMARY:
· Proposition A replaced the former San Francisco Traffic Code with the Transportation Code in 2008. Three sections were Traffic Code text was not carried over to the Transportation Code are proposed to be changed: adding the definition of Alley, clarifying the marking of fire hydrant red zones, and clarifying the authority to remove illegal markings. These changes reflect past and current practices.
· The establishment of on-street bicycle parking is proposed to be implemented following a public hearing. On-street bicycle parking is a new regulation that was previously not described in the Transportation Code. All motorcycle parking, metered and unmetered, is also now proposed to be implemented following public hearing.
· Section 302, Penalty Schedule, is updated to reflect only one fine for a violation of Division I Section 7.2.20 and to eliminate the penalty for Section 7.2.52 which is not listed in Division I.
· Section 702 on Speed Limits is being revised to reflect previously approved changes on 3rd Street between Channel and Evans Avenue (SFMTA Board Resolution 10-071) and on portions of King Street and The Embarcadero (SFMTA Board Resolution 11-014).

PURPOSE
Resolution amending Division II of the Transportation Code by amending Section 101 to add the definition of "alley" formerly contained in the Traffic Code; Section 201 to authorize the City Traffic Engineer to: (1) remove unauthorized color curb markings or other markings that regulate vehicle parking, (2) indicate by signs or markings where vehicle parking is prohibited within fifteen feet of a fire hydrant, and (3) designate on-street bicycle and all motorcycle parking spaces following a public hearing; Section 302 to update two changes to the Transportation Code Penalty Schedule table; and Section 702 to add and delete locations that are subject to certain speed limits.
GOAL
This action is consistent with the SFMTA 2008-2012 Strategic Plan.
Goal 2: System Performance – To get customers where they want to go, when they want to be there.
DESCRIPTION
· Modification I. Proposal to add Section 101(a)(1) to include the definition of “Alley” in San Francisco as any street with a roadway width not exceeding 25 feet. This definition was formerly contained in the Traffic Code as Section 3.17 but was not carried over to the Transportation Code. This ordinance clarifies that this definition still applies in San Francisco. California Vehicle Code Section 110 allows San Francisco to define an alley through a resolution or ordinance. Certain sections of the California Vehicle Code, such as the authority to restrict traffic contained in Section 21102.1, only apply in streets formally designated as alleys. Under California Vehicle Code Section 22352 alleys have a prima facie speed limit of 15 miles per hour.
· Modification II. Proposal to add Section 201(a)(13) to clarify that in San Francisco fire hydrant no parking zones can be painted shorter than 15 feet. This authority was formerly contained in Traffic Code section 38.M but was not carried over to the Transportation Code. This ordinance clarifies that the SFMTA has authority to mark fire hydrant zones that are shorter than 15 feet, which reflects current and past practices. California Vehicle Code section 22514 requires a resolution or ordinance to reduce the distance of 15 feet which otherwise vehicles are required to keep away from fire hydrants.
· Modification III. Proposal to amend Section 201(a)(12) to clarify that the SFMTA has the authority to remove illegal curb markings and other pavement markings that attempt to regulate the parking of vehicles. This clarification was requested by staff. The proposed language reflects existing practice that gives the SFMTA the authority to remove unauthorized traffic control devices on the public right-of-way.
· Modification IV. Proposal to add Section 201(b)(6) to clarify that on-street bicycle parking can be implemented following a public hearing. This new type of parking regulation, where
bicycle parking racks or station are placed on the street, was not originally included in the Transportation Code. These changes typically involve short distances that can affect two or fewer parking spaces. This change would clarify that these types of changes do not need a SFMTA Board of Directors' Resolution for implementation. In addition, staff recommends that all motorcycle parking also be implemented following a public hearing. Currently
PAGE 3.
motorcycle parking proposed in unmetered areas requires a SFMTA Board of Directors' Resolution for implementation. Both of these changes will streamline approval of more minor parking changes.
· Modification V. Proposal to amend Section 302, Transportation Code Penalty Schedule. Two changes are included: (1) there are currently two fine amounts for violation of Division I Section 7.2.20. Only one fine amount should be listed per violation category. Violation of a Residential and Carpool permit area where listed as separate items in Section 302 though they are part of the same violation category in Division I. This proposal consolidates both under the fine amount of $65, the one for Resident Parking Permit violation. Carpool permit violations are not common, with no fines issued between July 1, 2009 and January 15, 2011; and (2) the fine for violation of Division I Section 7.2.52, Parking in Bicycle Lane (formerly Traffic Code Section 38N) is deleted. There is no Section 7.2.52 in Division I of the Transportation Code. This Section was added in error in a previous revision to the Penalty Schedule. Other state law is used to cite for parking in bicycle lanes, and no fines were issued between July 1, 2009 and January 15, 2011 for Section 7.2.52.
· Modification VI. Proposal to amend Sections 702(a) and 702(b) on 30 and 35 MPH speed limit streets. The proposal would reorder some of the previously listed streets so they are in correct alphabetical order. In addition, it would incorporate a lowering of the speed limit on 3rd Street between Channel Street and Evans Avenue as already approved in SFMTA Board Resolution 10-071. Finally, it would establish lower speed limit on King Street and The Embarcadero from 35 MPH to 30 MPH as already approved in SFMTA Board Resolution 11-014.
Environmental Clearance
Increases to fares, fees, rates, fines, and charges are subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). It is anticipated that City Planning will determine that the increase to the carpool parking permit fine is statutorily exempt from environmental review under California Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(8) and CEQA implementing guidelines, Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15273. Said determination is on file with the Secretary for the SFMTA Board of Directors.
Public Notice
Charter Section 16.112 requires published notice and a public hearing before the SFMTA may institute or change any fee, schedule of rates, charge or fare which affects the public. Section 10
of the SFMTA Board’s Rules of Order requires that the advertisement run for at least five days and not less than fifteen days prior to the public hearing regarding any increase to any rate,
charge, fare, fee, or fine. In compliance with this requirement, an advertisement ran regarding the proposed increase to the carpool parking permit fine in the San Francisco Chronicle for a five-day period beginning on February 9, 2011.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
On-street bicycle and motorcycle parking could require an SFMTA Board Resolution for implementation rather than just a public hearing.
