Left, is the entrance to the wholesale flower market, which is over on the left side of the market alley. You can see the market alley opening up onto fifth street, so as you walk along, you will be able to see into it and be drawn into the activity going on there as you walk along brannon, you will walk along the market hall, seeing all the different activities going on there. Further down brannan you see, through to the market alley from the street, through the oculus, and from the freeway, the building is broken up into several different masses that are all a related design, would give the building a sense of scale. The Gateway Building on the west end creates this connection through the midblock of the green and really creates an identity at the western end of the site. Landscape is used throughout the project, and it will all be native and low water using, street trees have been selected, as well as trees to protect the on sight. You have ten minutes, im sorry. Two quick things. Wrap it up quickly. Sure. The building is designed to be built in phases, so the first phase is the block building were the market hall would be in the bottom. The market hall would be the second, and Gateway Building would be the third. This is the variance if the flower market chooses not to come back. It includes the childcare, the Community Centre opening up more popo through the market alley, and having more activity space. Otherwise, you wont know the difference of the project from the outside and from a community perspective, it will really look the same. Thank you so much for that presentation. Do you want to Say Something . Okay. With that, we will open this item up for Public Comment. I do have three speaker cards. [calling names]. [indiscernible] i would like to start off by expressing our appreciation to Kilroy Realty and to the city, especially oewd and the citys Attorney Office in helping us work on sculpting a Development Agreement which will give the market tenants the option to move into a new permanent sight and not returning to its current location. When the original agreement was made for building the new market at its current site five years ago, we did not know that just around the corner of fifth street and brannan street, they would be around 4 million square feet of new office space, with the increased density and traffic, vehicles and pedestrians and bicycles or vendors, customers, his of pliers and Delivery Companies would have a very difficult time operating the flower marked at its current location. The Development Agreement gives us the option of moving to a no location in which our vendors can sustain their owner operated businesses. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. My name is fleming. I am part owner of one of the tenants of the flower market, and we appreciate people working with us trying to keep the flower market together. There are very flew few flower markets in this country. We have seen others going through the same situation like us, like in boston and other places where they had to move outside of the city to the suburbs, and the market itself felt a little bit apart. When somebody does move, we just did not have the funds to put into it. This enables us to keep the flower market together and in the city and gives us a place to function. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Next speaker, please. Bran nan. A lot of our needs for housing space and sustainability and Economic Development have historically been pushed around about because ever this Cultural District Partnership theres a huge opportunity here for the city to coordinate with us and prioritizing a gateway on sixth street. The cultural district has already been in discussion with kill roy and they have expressed interest including a gateway as part of their interest in the community. As commissioners who have an obligation to built a sustainable environment theres a chance to be champions of the soma. To have Community Facilities and a gateway included in this Development Agreement is super doable and the absolutely can be done to increase the visibility of a community that has been fighting to stay here. It can pave the way how Developers Work with the city and with soma filipinos moving forward. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Charlie lafferty asked me to give the commission his regards. He was unable to make it tonight. While the operating engineers and our fellow brothers and sisters in the building are excited about this project and the number of jobs going to bring to the area, we also have some concerns regarding the amount of office space being used in this project. We feel that this, along with the other south of Market Office development is going to put a large choke on the amount of Office Space Available for Development Due to the prop m requirements. We would like there to be a gradual phase in that considers the amount of available labor for these projects. Certainly skilled and trained workforce that is going to make these projects successful and make them come in on time and on budget. Theres not a million of us out there and so we want our workforce available for all. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Sue. The flower acceptedder vendors g to stay in the city. Theyre fighting to stay south of market although the vendors are fighting to stay in the city. And the Planning Commission has big decisions. The reality of the Office Development in the next month including the one that was disapproved is all for the tekin does tree. Conveniently, the cal train station is down the street and the housing you are being asked to improve next week is a thousand units of market rate housing with no on side affordability and and it will be upper income rental housing to serve the tekin does tree. Notekin does tree. Not the filip. It is being approved week by week, month by month. One of the messages you got to give to the developer is the alternative without housing is not acceptable. If the flower vendors move to east of Bernal Heights and i would welcome them there. Its the section the Produce Market has moved out of Golden Gateway but its not acceptable to say you are going to build four or five million square feet of Office Development for the tech sector to get on their train and go down to Silicon Valley conveniently without taking the pressure out of the housing market. Theres a crying need for housing to be built to serve the existing people that are being moved on. The people that work in the city and in your restaurants, in the hotels in this city and the stores in this city that people still pat toront patronize. Who are going to be the vendors in this marketplace. Theyre not going to be able to live in the city. What is the message that you are going to give them to have tech offices that use space efficiency and so next week a thousand units of housing in kill roy, you are in the crosshairs. Thank you. Thank you. Any other Public Comment on this item . Public comment is now closed. Ok. Go ahead. Please. Come on. Thank you. Good afternoon. My name is Christine Hanson and im a San Francisco native. I have had the lucky opportunity to personally know Flower Growers who relied daily on the flower mart. These folks grow locally and they give modest income. My concern is when the developer said that some day a replacement property may need to be found for the flower mart in our land locked city land is precious as is our flower mart. Please protect them and make sure that possibly in four years time, theres no way that they will be told oh, well, theres just no land. Please dont allow that to happen. I am concerned. Thank you. Thank you. Any other Public Comments on this item . With that, Public Comment is now closed. Commissioner richards. Walk us through the spread sheet again and just one of the things we heard was that granting all the 1. 4 million square feet to killroy would hurt other projects when they were able to put their shovels in the ground. Could you help us on that . Sure. It would be great for the public to understand. The only allocation that i know the numbers on are the three that are in front of you in this current summer phase. Which are the 590 brand and allocation you approved last week and then the project which is coming in for the first phase some time this summer as well. And so, i dont want to turn that off again. What we know for certain right now is that right now, we have the actual allocation in the bank of 2,892,466 square feet and in non port projects in front of you this summer, the total allocation is 2,564,765 feet. We expect the port to come in the next several months with a allocation request for 60,000 feet. Which totals 2,624,765. It leaves a little bit in the bank. A small amount in the bank. In the fall and on october 17th you will get your 875,000 replenishment giving you a total of 1,142,000 square feet. At that point, we expect another chunk of projects will come forward. Theres a number of projects in the cue. I dont know what order they will come in and i dont know exactly which onc ones theyre coming in. Theyre being asked to phase. You feel comfortable . Its safe to assume you feel comfortable that the phasing plus the timing is going to allow a lot of projects to move forward . I think it does. Particularly because we know that the port will come in after probably in Second Quarter next year and then theyll pull the bank negative and the following year after that there wont be any allocation available because it will be replen issued i reple fall and the port will have taken everything left in the bank. In the fall of 2021 you get another allocation and you end up with 810,000 in the bank and the next round of projects will come in front of you and some of the second phases and other projects and so basically by looking at the way the port comes through taking the bank negative but ronenish particular allows you to allocate the remaining can you talk about the rational for that and why were taking it in that much in this first allocation. Theres a couple of key points. One is that we are requiring that the killroy keep the option open for the flower vendors to return to sixth and brandon. Until we can find a permanent home for the flower vendors, we want to make sure they can always return to sixth and brandon if it has their election. Thats one of the key points. The other key point is that on the timing of it, as soon as kill roy gets his final approval, they will begin construction on the temporary site at 2,000 marin. So the developers will be responsible for clearing that site and preparing an interim market and as soon as that market so whether or not they come back, we still have the timeframe in which they need to bneed tobe at an interim locati. And the d. A. , which will come to us and thank you for the detail on that. Its between the city and kill roy. Is the flower market a party to that . The flower mart is not a party to the Development Agreement. Thats the city and kill roy. The flower vendors have what is called a tryparty agreement with kill roy and the Development Agreement will reference the triparty agreement. Were working closely with the flower market to make sure that we understand exactly what they need in a Permanent Location so we can come up with the formula that will allow them to pay for the Permanent Location if its located elsewhere. So the city has seen it between two . The triparty agreement is between who . Its not the city is not a part of the triparty agreement. Its the kill roy and the Market Association and the vendors. So theres two entities that represent the flower mart. Ok. Thank you. And then, a question came up in our last hearings on these program allocations, i imagine that the d. A. Will address this but the timing of the Public Benefits. How is that addressed in the d. A. If theres an initial allocation and an allocation how are the Public Benefits being timed . All the benefits in this project come with the first allocation in the first phase and so to give you a sense of what it looks like, the first throw projects in front of you, are all getting about the same percentage of their total allocation in their first phase. Actually, 598 brandon got 77 and kill roy 67 and theyre all getting roughly the same percentage of their total allocation the first phase. In this project, we have the Development Agreement that allows us to bring all of the Public Benefits forward first. So theyll all come in the first phase. How is that being addressed with other projects . I know we heard some will lag because of the approvals but how is that controlled . The Public Benefits . In this project . No, in others. Its about what the Public Benefit is. For example, in the land will come online earlier because we have to go through the board and other processes and so the commissions approval lends itself towards getting that. On 598, we were able to get the land early and then the park will come when they get the second construction and maintenance to the park come in the second phase basically. Thank you. I just wanted to clarify that the popos will be phased with the three construction. All the benefits from the d. A. Are with the first phase but the popos get built. When the building gets built. To the projects sponsor, can you just talk about if the flower mart does go to a different site, can you just walk through what happens to that portion of the project. I know theres a childcare and i guess additional retail but perhaps perhaps i can answer that. Can you show that again because i know you were running out of time. Theres a plan at the end of the presentation there. So essentially what happens is were able to shrink the footprint that otherwise would go to the flower mart a little bit so that frees up for additional popos widening the market alley and it also allows us to then insert the 23,000 square foot Childcare Center along the north and fifth street side. And thats up too. Its a purple back on the backright corner. Were able to get a meeting center, a Community Room for Community Meetings and such of almost a thousand square feet over off morris street. In the blue areas . The blue areas are most of that is still what would be counted as office space or the lobbies to the office space. Ok. All right. In just the youve got theres a significant amount of retail in this project which i think is great. Weve had discussions about row tales and theres some who arent as bullish in the future of retail. Maybe can you talk about the types of tenants that you anticipate in those spaces and in kind of your thoughts on of retail. I like it. We get a little nervous about that amount of retail space seeing some of the trends were seeing in retail. Thats a good question. Were seeing some parts of Retail Sector struggling. In kill roys other projects, were having a lot of success with retail tenants. Certain types of retail do well. Food and beverage retail and that would be the focus of this project. The market hall especially would be a lot of really small vendors that are neighborhoodserving. Evoking the europeantile market hall feeling and were pretty bullish about that part of the Retail Sector. Other parts of the Retail Sector, clothing, for example, not doing as well and wouldnt see as much of that in this project but theres plenty to go around and especially in this location with all the new development happening, the neighborhood will need this retail. Our project has probably more retail than all the other projects combined and its needed to serve the new residents and office workers. Thank you. Thank you. Commissioner fung. Not sure who would answer this but for years the lease with p. U. C. , are there options to extend that . Yes. Weve asked for options. For how long . Weve asked for one twoyear options. Its still a negotiation that is on going. The 170 million, can you provide us with a breakdown for how that is spread out. I will include that and theres a exhibit that breaks down all the fees. I didnt bring the breakdown. Its a great deal that is the jobs housing fee which 160 million many of theres an eastern neighborhoods fee that is 20 million. The transit impact fees are closer to 60 so theres a number of fees and i will definitely include the breakdown they come with the formal submission. Yes. Ok. That seems to be it. Very good, commissioners. That will place us on item 6 for case 2019006418pca many of this is a north of market Affordable Housing vn city wide Affordable Housing Fund Planning code and administrative code amendments. Good evening, commissioners. Veronica flores Planning Department staff. The item before you is proposed legislation regarding the north of market Affordable Housing fund. This ordinance is proposed by mayor breed and amy chan from the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development is in attendance today and also available to answer any questions. The ordinance seeks to abolish the north of market Affordable Housing fund and have these fees deposited to and administered by the city wide Affordable Housing fund which is consistent where all the other Affordable Housing fees are listed. The north of market housing fund was established circa 1985 to stabilize, rehabilitate and retain Affordable Housing in the north of market residential special use districts. The s. U. D. Allows special height exceptions for the 80. 18t districts in these areas the height can go up to 120 or 130 feet if the exception is granted. And the increase height serves as a transition from the higher downtown heights to the generally lower heights of the surrounding residential buildings. Conditions of approval are imposed on these to mitigate the impacts to the increased height which is likely to have impact on Affordable Housing in the area. The code lists an impact fee of 5 per square foot above 80 feet. The ordinance will move the exiting north of market fee into the city wide Affordable Housing fund making that consistent with other Affordable Housing fees such as the jobs Housing Linkage Program and inclusionary Affordable Housing program. The ordinance also seeks to list the eastern neighborhoods area plan alternate Affordable Housing feet. This is already established in the planning code and must be deposited into the city wide fund. The original north of market housing fee again which was established in 1985 is 5 per square foot, however, this does not factor in todays economy or factor in any inflation since the original fee inception. The Department Recommends indexing such fee to reflect todays dollars. The Mayors Office of Housing Community development would have a fee based on the office of resilience and capital plannings annual Infrastructure Construction cost inflation estimate and we have the figures available from 2011 moving forward and that is available in the packets you received. For the years prior beginning in 1986 until 2010, the feet will be indexed by percentage a year and this figure is orcps average historical cost inflation estimate. This approach results in a new fee of 25. 41 per square foot. Lastly, the park et cetera weree published and they received a letter of support from the district 6 Community Planners group and i have a copy available for review. The Department Recommends approval with modifications as discussed. And again this is to move an existing fee into the city wide Affordable Housing fund. All the fees collected will still be earmarked for Affordable Housing in the north of market residential respect use district. This concludes the staff presentation and amy chen and are both available for questions. Thank you very much. Is there any Public Comment on this item . Sue hester, i was listening for the piece where an explanation was given of the outreach in the input on this fee. Last friday, the day after the Planning Commission meeting, the board of Supervisors Committee heard about the twitter tax break. Which was passed by the city and didnt have the results that everyone thought they would have because there was no real outreach set up in that legislation. I watched the hearing and was leveled by listening to people from the tenderloin that are still there. And they complained that no one really talked to them about how that whole twitter tax break was set up. And what implications it had moving people from the tenderloin which was pretty severe. The tenderloin is losing housing right and left and its converted to tekin does does treehousdoes tree. I would ask ye input that should be done. I apologize in 1985 setting it at 5. We were dumb people who didnt know any better. We got the first fees as a threat to get the downtown plan passed. The irony, i would just tell you what is here. Page 2 of the resolution, thats prop 5 and 6. It was a twin of the fee for housing. They were all passed in the 80s by Planning Department does prop m findings all the time without understanding what they are. The general plan is a result of prop m. Thats page 2 and the prop m priority policy findings are on the following pages. They were put on the ballot by the people in the city. Those were enacted as part of prop m. Not only the Office Allocation but this part right here. So weve had the full range of prop m in the past two items. The Office Allocations and the priority policies and the priority of housing. Housing was always a priority for people that lived in the city and struggling to stay in the city and the tenderloin especially. The de tenderloin and south of market and china town were basic to the struggle for housing and the city. You didnt bother having any input because the Planning Department and the Mayors Office knows better than the people in the tenderloin. Im calling you on it. Get your act together, Planning Department. Thank you ms. Hester. Any other Public Comment on this item . Public comment is now closed. Commissioner fung. Two questions for staff. The change in the Fee Structure is applied to new projects . Planning department staff. Yes, this is to confirm that if the recommendation to index a fee is accepted, then the existing projects, including the 450 project will be well collect the fee at the intext street so no projects to date have actually triggered this fee so any projects moving forward will be collected at the rate. Thank yo thank you explain to me the oversight mechanism for expenditures of the north of market fund versus the city wide fund . So for this specific fund, all of the collected fees will be dedicated and solely used in the boundaries of the north of market residential special use district and thats located the boundaries are highlighted on page 2 of the packet. If i can invite amy chan to speak a little bit more about the way of the other city wide housing funds are allocated. The question really relates to who controls it . Pro ve ides the oversight to it . Amy chan. So, this north of market fund doesnt theres no fees in this market fund. Were recommending through this legislation that any future fees be deposited into the city wide Affordable Housing fund. We oversee the fees for Affordable Housing and preservation and specifically north of market fees. Our office is directed to apply the use of these fees for the preservation of Affordable Housing which our office would be doing and in terms of the oversight of how we use our fees for this particular fee and other fees, we have a city wide Affordable Housing committee which our office, the office of Community Infrastructure investment and the office of homelessness sit on that Loan Committee and they approve loans and grants we basically provide to Nonprofit Developers and under the citys charter loans and grants up to a certain that reach a threshold are required to go to the board of supervisors for additional approval and so those are the two layers of primary oversight for the use of our fees for our bond funds its different. We have to go to a Citizens Oversight Committee for the oversight of those funds. So there are various entities that oversee the application of our fees and our funds. Thank you. Thank you ms. Chan. Commissioner johnson. Thank you fellow commission fung for asking that question. Thank you to staff for that presentation. I did have correspondents for folks in the community that were concerned about this shift and transparency around making sure these funds were earmarked and confusion whether these funds were earmarked so i feel like just if we can do a better job of letting Key Community members know and getting the words out about that i think it would be beneficial. The other thing i was excited to see and our case packet was a racial analysis and implementation analysis which was exciting. Yet on the social and Racial Equity analysis, i was a little confused by it. I think specifically in thinking about social and Racial Equity around this topic, first just kind of understanding why this fund was created and what were trying to do in the communities that were trying to center would be the beginning of that analysis and the second piece of that analysis for me would be about transparency and about making sure that folks know that these funds will be earmarked for their intended purpose. And so just an invitation as we kind of move into creating this analysis and recognizing who its for, the folks that are affected and really stating our citys commitment and making sure that we are stabilizing these communities as something that would be great to see. Thank you. I will just add to that, commissioner johnson. Thank you so much. You are always on point. Periodically reviewing our policies and procedures to make sure that they are yielding the intended results that you just spoke of in terms of the racial inequity analysis that would be really great. Did you have something to say . I just wanted to thank you for the feedback on that. Its the first case report that has it so were trying to figure out what will go in it. We are going through training on how to do that so it will hopefully improve in the future. Great. Thank you. Commissioner hillis. I move to approve with modifications. Second. Thank you. Theres a motion that has been seconded to approve this matter with staff modifications on that motion. Fung. Aye. Hillis. Aye. Johnson. Aye. Moore. Aye. Richard. Aye. And melgar. Aye. So moved. That motion passes 60. We are on item 7. This is an informational presentation. Id like to introduce you to a staff member who you have not met before. This is selena chan. Selena is a planner in the city wide division working on connect sf which is our Transportation Planning. She comes to us with a range of experience in nonprofit public and private sectors. Before joining San Francisco planning she wok worked in econc health. She holds a bachelor of arts from Boston University and a master of publichealth and master of city planning degrees from berkeley and we welcome her to the commission. Good afternoon, commissioners. Selena chan staff with the city wide planning division. Im here to give you an update on connect sf. This is the Transportation Planning process for the citys future. I will be co presenting today with camille from one of our partner agencies, the San Francisco county Transportation Authority. And wire also joined by other members of the connect sf team. The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency or sfmta and doug johnson from the Planning Department. So, we know that this commission and the public are concerned about the citys Transportation System and the citys future mobility. We can get ahead and make the effective and equitable Transportation Vision a reality. To plan for a future of great mobility, we need a detailed understanding of what is happening now, what were forecasting for the future, and some of the gaps we needs to address in order to achieve the vision we set for the city. Thats what im here to share with you today. The Technical Work weve done to understand our future. Im going to give you a brief overview about connect sf and the statement of needs. What it is and what its for. And then next ill discuss the findings from the state of needs and after that well discuss next steps. Were not alone in planning for the future of transportation. As i mentioned, im joined today by our partners at sfmta and sfcta and were bringing our specific expertise in land use, transportation funding, deliveries, Capital Projects and transit plan to go a full fourth collaboration. This powerful Partnership Creates unprecedented opportunities. The thinking of the citys major agencies involved in Transportation Planning will position the ideas for implementation like never before. And through our partnership, we will identify major transportation investments and policies that are needed for the next 50 years. We already completed the first phase of work for connect sf and this involved developing a vision for what the city will look and feel like in 50 years. This work was informed by more than 5,000 individuals and 60 organizations who contribute their thoughts on what the future of San Francisco should be. Briefly the vision for San Francisco is a growing diverse equitable city, a multitude of Transportation Options that are available reliable and affordable to everyone. And strong civic and government engagement resulting in swift action. I also wanted to briefly note that the vision was adopted and endorsed by you the Planning Commission as well as the sfeta board and the sfmta board. These are the five goals of connect sf. Equity, environmental sustainability, economic vitality, safety and liveability and accountability and engagement. The vision will guide our studies and all projects and policies that emerge from our collective efforts. As we just discussed, phase 1 of connection sf involved developing our collective vision for the city. Today were at the beginning of phase 2. Increasing our understanding. This is our step to understand needs and challenges for the future given our current Transportation System and the projects we already have planned. Were calling this the statement of needs. And then next to meet the challenges we spell out today, we will develop project concepts for transit streets and freeway networks. Priorities for the transit streets and freeways will be formalized as policies in the new transportation element of the general plan and were also working on the San Francisco Transportation Plan which is the city wide long range investments and policy blueprint for the Transportation System. The purpose of the statement of needs is to establish a baseline understanding of how San Franciscos Transportation System is performing today and in the future. We know we need to do more. We have to see what is in store for the future first. Does this Transportation System performance meet the goals and aspirations we set out in our vision. If it doesnt, what are the gaps or areas we need to do better to reach a vision. So we use the travel model that was developed by the Transportation Authority and this is a tool we use to understood two things. What is happening today and so for that we use 2015 as our baseline year. Second, we used it to forecast how the Transportation System will perform in the future year of 2050. The major inputs into the model were land use and the Transportation System. Then to help us assess how were doing, we identified metrics corresponding to the visions, goals and objectives. To model the future, we had to input our current Transportation System and what we assume the Transportation System to be in 2050, if we did no further planning today. And to build the model, we used both physical infrastructure and program attic considerations. We started with what we know about the network during our baseline year of 2015 so streets, regional, Bike Networks and for the year 2050 we used the assumptions from plan bay area 2040. Large Infrastructure Projects and transit capacity improvements and some examples we included 2050 are gary bus Rapid Transit and central subway and cal train downtown extension. San francisco will continue to grow. We estimate 24 growth in the number of jobs. There will be nearly 30 growth in residents. I also want to note the bay area region will grow more than San Francisco. So how do we calculate this expected growth . Starting with the growth that was projected in plan bay area 2040, we added other inputs for Development Capacity based on adopted plans and policies. This includes programs such as accessory dwelling units, the state density program, home sf, City Wide Development sites, large developments and plan areas such as candlestick point. It will they are com pot able with housing and the connect sf vision goals and with these two inputs, we can run the travel model. Where do we expect this projected growth to go in the future . This map shows the change in tense tee of people and jobs in San Francisco between 2015 and 2050 and the largest increases in growth will occur in the eastern parts of the city and this includes major developments and area plans that have already been improved which are called out in the map that you see here. And to review what we just talked about, the model run will form the basis of our strategies. And it shows what would happen in 2050 if we did no further planning. It gives us a baseline to test our ideas. Some good news first, more jobs will be accessible to San Francisco residents in 2050. In 2050, drivers will continue to have access to more jobs and absolute numbers than transit riders. With that said, there will be a greater percentage improvement in job accessibility by transit than by auto. Despite the Large Population in job growth, it wont change much and average commute times in 20 other where people live. This is for all modes of transportation. The darker the shade of red in the map the longer the average commute time. Commutes are also longer for residents in the western and southeastern parts of San Francisco. In addition to city wide analysis, we want to look at results with an equity lens and we looked at how the Transportation Network is working for communities of concern in the future and communities of concern or c. O. C. S is used by the metropolitan Transportation Commission ex to find communities with high levels of low income households and minority populations. They have shorter commute times and better access to highquality transit. In the future access to transit flattens and they lose this advantage. In general, jobs access will incheese for everyone, however, cocs wont see as large of an increase compared to residents and non cocs. By 2050, they will see less of an increase in jobs accessible by transit and auto and the non cocs and residents and non cocs can access jobs by transit and by car. Now lets look at how people get around the city. As you know, an fran is one of the most sustainable cities in the country when it comes to transportation. The city is pushing itself to go further. It has set an aggressive goal of having 80 of trips by sustainable modes by 2030. According to the travel model, over all mode share will hold steady in 2050. Absent any new policies and infrastructure investments. The model forecast that the number of trips on all modes will increase. Unfortunately, trips using unsustainable modes which is showing here in the red, increases more than sustainable modes which is shown in the green. The greatest increase is transit and the greatest relative percentage increase in trips is by Companies Like uber and lyft. We wont reach our goal of 80 sustainable trips. Personal miles driven is to and from and within San Francisco. Personal miles driven percapita is still lower than the region as a whole. We see this number in San Francisco increasing a fraction while it drops in the bay area over all. And since that numbers are low and its more challenging for San Francisco to do better in the future. Our already low miles driven helps the bay area achieve goals in 2050. This slide show total miles driven and grown house gas emissions for all cars driving in San Francisco. Amount will increase at the same time emissions are anticipated to fall. This assumes that Greenhouse Gas emissions from transportation will decline with Technological Advancements and continued fully efficiencies. The city has an ambitious goal by the year 2050. It will help us how to get to zero and given the state of the planet, its not enough to just decrease emissions. As you know, traffic is bad today. We expect that congestion will get worse in the future. Speeds drop by 2050 especially during the midday periods down 15 over 30 years. This tells us well need policies and make better use of our limited roadway space. They will explore policies and strategies to improve conditions on major roads through the streets and freeway study. Transit will be more crowded in 2050. The share of passenger hours on money increases from 18 to 23 and the share of passenger hours on bart that are crowded hold steady at about 11 . This is likely due to Service Capacity increases between now and 2050 which is the number of trains that go through the transbay tube. It is expected to be more pronounced on the Market Mission central subway and trance bay corridor. This is despite projects in the pipeline like market street, and more bart and muni vehicles on our roads. We know more can be done to address transit crowding. Connect sf will explore major concepts through the transit corridor study. Im going to pass it over to camille from the Transportation Authority to summarize our key findings and tell you what is next for connect sf. Good evening commissioners. To summarize the slides that selena presented, the city will continue to grow and we will see more jobs and people in San Francisco in 2050. San francisco residents can access more jobs and were closing the gap between the number of jobs accessible by transit and by car. While its good that the average commute times are not changing city wide, considering our expected growth, performance is uneven across the different parts of the city. We have challenges for San Franciscos future. Our plan, transportation investments, will not get us to where we need to be in 2050. In the future, we will have inequitable outcomes for residents of communities of concern. We will meet our city wide sustainability goals and total vehicle miles driven and well continue to have congestion on our streets. And transit crowded. What weve shared today is just a snippet of what is in the full statement of needs report that we are preparing to release later this summer. Not everything can be modeled and so we are learning about those issues we cant model and compile the collection of available present day data including our progress receipt towards vision zero, and maintenance and repairing needs. These results will be included in our statement of needs report. Now you have heard the statement of needs and you know our challenges lets look at how well start to identify solutions to get to that vision. The transit corridor studies and the streets and freeway study will identify a major project concept for new investments and policies that will seek to address the challenges we described today. Work on these two studies will start this summer. All of the work will feed into the new transportation element of the citys general plan and this work is also started this summer. At the same time, connect sf will work on the San Francisco Transportation Plan that will identify San Franciscos local Transportation Priorities and they must be included and be consistent with the regional plan plan bay area 2050. If the project i project is seeg numberinfunding. Please check our our connect sf website. We have created six members where you have members of the public and members of the public can explore the data further and there are maps on jobs growth and housing growth and jobs accessibility by auto and transit and travel time for commute trips and transit crowding, vehicle miles driven and well do outreach on the statement of needs and you can find a list of events object our connect sf website and members of the public can email us to credit the presentation to their group. We hope to provide you the mission with periodic updates of connect sf progresses. Because integrated land use and Transportation Planning will help us get to that better future. Thank you. Thank you, very much. Great presentation. We will now open this item up for Public Comment. I dont have any speaker cards. Steve. Theres a gridlock crisis in San Francisco as most the residents are aware. Its more and more difficult to get around in San Francisco combined and deregulated transportation businesses that we have in San Francisco. But you the commission and the executive director have actually approved projects without any transit lie viability agreements. Thats what youve done. So the Planning Commission and the director of planning in San Francisco are responsible for the gridlock. Well discuss later the next point on the agenda about city college. You know theres going to be gridlock by the massive amount of construction you are improving and you have no plan for it
