PURPOSE
This calendar item consists of a number of amendments plus one addition to Division II of the Transportation Code Many of these changes are to update the Transportation Code as a result of the FY 2009-2010 budget. The main price changes are the vehicle boot removal fee, parking meter rates (including motorcycles), color curb fees, and an increase in parking fines to capture a $3 state courthouse construction fee increase mandated by the state this year.
Altogether, these amendments correct and/or update references to Division I, clarify parking restriction exemptions, remove the requirement that decisions by the City Traffic Engineer be posted on the SFMTA website, revise the Transportation Code and Vehicle Code penalty schedules, increase the green zone meter processing fee, establish administrative penalties and appeal procedures for violations of the Safe Paths of Travel (SPOT) program, adjust parking meter rates, modify list of streets with weight restrictions, change the speed limit on a section of Lake Merced Boulevard and allow SFMTA to designate a Residential Permit Parking Area on its own initiative.
The two most important changes are Sections 406-409, which raise parking meter rates by $0.50 per hour, and Sections 306 and 307, which give the SFMTA the authority to enforce regulations regarding obstructions of traffic with SFMTA non-police personnel. The changes to Sections 306 and 307 are important to ensure that contractors provide safe paths of travel through their construction sites for the public.
SFMTA is also submitting an ordinance to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors that amends Division I of the Transportation Code in conjunction with these Division II changes.

DESCRIPTION
Many of the changes in this overall amendment to Division II of the Transportation Code are to update the Transportation Code as a result of the FY 2009-2010 budget. Details of all the changes are provided below:
· Sections 106, 502, 601, 801, 906, 907 & 1002—Correct references to the proper section of Division I of the Transportation Code. There was a typographical error that led to references to an “Article 10” of Division I; this has been corrected to refer to “Article 7” Clarify exemptions to various parking restrictions by garbage trucks, consular vehicles, Department of Public Health vehicles and Municipal Railway employees.
· Section 201—Removes language that could imply that Board action is required for installation of shared pavement arrows, parking stall delineation, or other pavement markings. Amends the list of SFMTA Board approval items to include transit only lanes.
· Section 203--Remove the requirement that all decisions by the City Traffic Engineer be posted on the SFMTA website (letters of explanation of the decision to requestors are still required). This is a requirement that was put in the Code in November, 2008. It is not helpful to the public to give lists of decisions without providing full context including documentation, analysis, and explanation. Such detailed explanations are appropriate for the person or group who requested a traffic control device, but would be cumbersome and time consuming to provide for the website.
· Section 301 – The vehicle boot removal fee is updated to reflect the current $245 fee.
The additional $3 fee was approved by the SFMTA Board as part of the FY 2009-2010 budget. In addition to the $3 fee, Section 302 also reflects approved increased fines for
PAGE 4.
fare evasion and passenger misconduct, and it modifies the fine for obstructing traffic to be $500 rather than $700 on the second offense within one year and $975 on the third offense within one year.
· Section 304—Revises color curb painting and processing fees per the SFMTA’s FY 2009-2010 budget amendment. Increases the green zone meter processing fee.
· Sections 406-409—Increases parking meter rates by $0.50 per hour. This will ensure appropriate turnover at meters, and will generate needed revenue. These are being changed to be consistent with the FY 2009-2010 budget.
· Section 410—Changes the hourly rate for motorcycle meters to be 1/5 the rate of automobile meters. This will bring motorcycle meter pricing more in line with automobile meter pricing. This change is consistent with the FY 2009-2010 budget.
· Section 501— Removes Market Street between Van Ness Avenue and Fremont Street from the list of streets with weight restrictions, and renumbers the list.
· Sections 502 & 907—Corrects references to the proper section of Division I of the Transportation Code.
· Section 702—Adds Lake Merced Boulevard between the County Line and Winston Drive to the list of 40 miles per hour streets; this reduces the speed limit from the existing 45 miles per hour.
· Section 905—Allows the SFMTA to establish a Residential Parking Permit Area on its own initiative. There may be cases where a petition is not necessary—e.g. non-residential frontage.
· New Section 1008—Establishes posting requirements for removal of vehicles parked in excess of 72 consecutive hours.
Further Explanation of Sections 306 and 307
The City regulates construction work and maintenance activities that occur on City streets to ensure that all users of the public right of way have a safe path of travel. Parking and Traffic is responsible for establishing and maintaining rules for work done in the public Right-of-Way. These rules are codified in a document titled “Regulations for Working in San Francisco Streets” (also known as the “the Bluebook”).
In 2004, SFMTA established the Safe Paths of Travel (SPOT) program in order to provide enforcement of these regulations. The SPOT program has been a collaborative effort between
SFMTA and the SFPD to provide education, enforcement and engineering solutions for construction and maintenance activities on City streets. SFPD and SFMTA staff have provided
PAGE 5.
education via seminars, on-site presentations, and individual meetings. SFPD provides enforcement in the form of uniformed officers who admonish and/or cite violations under
existing provisions of the Transportation Code. SFMTA provides engineering solutions for work zones through the issuance of Special Traffic Permits (STPs) and the “Regulations for Working in San Francisco Streets.” Cited individuals either pay their citation directly to SFMTA or request a hearing if they wish to challenge the citation. Appeals and adjudication of citations is conducted by either California Community Dispute Services or the Superior Court. Citation penalties are set by the Superior Court.
In late 2008, SFPD informed SFMTA of their intent to remove SFPD from the SPOT program in summer 2009 in light of their workload and other deployment needs. SFMTA has since been working with SFPD, San Francisco community organizations, the building industry and others to transition SPOT enforcement duties from SFPD to SFMTA. The enforcement and training aspects of the SPOT program will be changed as follows:
Public Notice
Charter Section 16.112 requires published notice and hearing before the SFMTA may institute or change any fee, schedule of rates, charges or fares that affects the public. The SFMTA's Board's Rules of Order require that the advertisement run for at least five days and not less than fifteen days prior to the public hearing. These requirements apply to both the administrative penalties for violation of Transportation Code, Division I, Section 7.2.71, and the increase in the green zone meter processing fee. In compliance with this requirement, an advertisement ran in the San Francisco Examiner for a five-day period beginning on August 14, 2009.
Environmental Review
City Planning previously determined that the rates, penalties and fees that were as part of the
PAGE 6.
2009-2010 budget and the $3.00 increase to parking citation penalties are statutorily exempt from environmental review under California Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(8); CEQA implementing guidelines, Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15273; California Public Resources Code section 21080.32 and CEQA implementing guidelines, Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15285.
With respect to administrative penalties for violation of Transportation Code, Division I, Section 7.2.71 and the increase in the green zone meter processing fee, City Planning has determined that these penalties are 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.
The SFMTA is concurrently proposing amendments to Transportation Code Division I (sections 7.2.71 and 7.3.3) and Division II (sections 306 and 307) to enact the SPOT program changes.
The City Attorney has reviewed this report.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED
If these amendments are not approved, procedural changes, speed limits, weight limits, enforcement of the Safe Path of Travel Program, and other improvements to the Transportation
Code described above would not be enacted. This would be counterproductive in terms of achieving the agency goals also described above. Regarding Sections 307-307—Safe Path of Travel Program--failure to amend the Transportation Code would impede the agency’s ability to enforce the "Regulations for Working in San Francisco Streets." This could result in walkways, transit stops, and other paths of travel being obstructed by construction projects and could result in unsafe paths of travel for pedestrians.
FUNDING IMPACT
Most of these measures are funding neutral with the exception of the fees, penalties, meter rates, and Safe Paths of Travel Program. In these cases, enacting these measures should ensure that revenues projected in the budget are collected. Revenue from the meters and fees is projected to be approximately $8.4 million. In the case of the Safe Paths of Travel Program, the goal is to make the program revenue neutral.
OTHER APPROVALS RECEIVED OR STILL REQUIRED
Amendments to Division I of the Transportation Code will be submitted to the Board of Supervisors consistent with these Division II changes.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the SFMTA Board adopt the Transportation Code revisions proposed for Division II as described above.

[begin insertion] (b) The SFMTA Board of Directors finds: [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (1) That it is in the best interest of the City, its residents, visitors and those who work in and on City streets and sidewalks to provide an alternative, administrative penalty mechanism for enforcement of the obstructing traffic violations covered by this section in addition to the existing enforcement mechanisms authorized under the California Penal Code; and [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (2) That the administrative penalty scheme established by this section is intended to compensate the public for the injury and damage caused by the prohibited conduct and gain compliance with the SFMTA's "Regulations for Working in San Francisco Streets" (also known as "the Bluebook"). The administrative penalties authorized under this section are intended to be reasonable and not disproportionate to the damage or injury to the City and the public caused by the prohibited conduct. [end insertion]

Failure to request a hearing in a timely manner or to attend a scheduled hearing shall satisfy the hearing requirement. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (2) Whenever administrative review is requested pursuant to this Section, the SFMTA Hearing Section shall, within fifteen business days of receipt of the request, notify the requestor of the date, time, and place of the administrative hearing by certified mail. Such hearing shall be held no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the SFMTA Hearing Section receives the request, unless time is extended by mutual agreement of the affected parties. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (3) The administrative hearing shall be conducted by a neutral hearing of officer assigned by the SFMTA Hearing Section. The SFMTA Hearing Section may issue rules as needed to implement this requirement. The parties may present evidence and testimony to the hearing officer. All testimony shall be under oath. The hearing officer shall ensure that a record of the proceedings is maintained. The burden of proof to uphold the violation shall be on the City, but the administrative citation shall be prima facie evidence of the violation. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (4) The hearing officer shall issue a decision including a summary of the issues and the evidence presented, and findings and conclusions, within fifteen (15) calendar days of the conclusion of the hearing. The hearing officer may uphold the penalty imposed by the citation or dismiss the citation. A copy of the decision may be personally delivered to the person or entity contesting the violation or sent by first class mail. The decision shall be a final administrative determination. An aggrieved party may seek judicial review of the decision pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 1094.5 and 1094.6. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (e) Payment and Collection of Penalty. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (1) Where a person or entity has not made a timely request for administrative hearing, the penalty shall be due and payable to the SFMTA on or before 15 business days from the date of issuance. [end insertion]

[end insertion]
[begin insertion] (3) If a penalty due and payable under paragraphs (1) or (2) remains unpaid after the specified due date, the SFMTA shall send the violator written notice that the penalty is overdue. Penalties that remain unpaid 30 days after the due date shall be subject to a late payment penalty of fifty ($50) dollars. Persons and entities against whom administrative penalties are imposed shall also be liable for the costs and attorney's fees incurred by the SFMTA in bringing any civil action to enforce the provisions of this section, including obtaining a judgment for the amount of the administrative penalty and other costs and charges. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (4) Where there is a nexus between the violation and property in the City owned by the violator, the SFMTA shall further inform the violator that if the amount due is not paid within 30 days from the date of the notice, the SFMTA shall initiate proceedings to make the amount due and all additional authorized costs and charges, including attorneys fees, a lien on the property. Such liens shall be imposed in accordance with Chapter 10, Article XX of the Administrative Code. [end insertion]
[begin insertion] (f) Administrative penalties shall be deposited in the Municipal Transportation Fund and may be expended only by the SFMTA. [end insertion]
