Is so clear and i have known about you since my under graduate days of stanford when we were fighting for your 10year at stanford. I appreciate all you have done. Given all your accomplishments and the demand for your service, i guess my next question is do you have time for this . I sure do. Ive been told by a couple of former members of the commission how much work it is and ive been told the version where you can do the minimalist version but you can do the meaningful version and thats what i choose to do. I pledge to you that i will devote a massive amount of time on this because i want what i believe you want. I want there to be change so that the types of incidents that weve seen are minimized or eliminated for heavens sake if we can, and thats what im pledge to go do and i know how much work its going to take and im ready to work at that time and roll up my sleeve and get under the hood and do the work. My final question. If there was a concrete or specific issue area you could

When former mayor implemented his executive order reducing the use of single use plastic water bottles, i know our office eliminated the water, the big water container in our office. In our city, our best source tap water come from our hedge reservoir, not from imported plastic jugs. With the city, we spend somewhat some where around 98,000 a year on this type of water in our offices.

This policy was strongly urged by our department of the environment and i would strongly urge support for it. And i guess the question this is considered a single use container then . Thats why im confused. I thought they keep on using it. So it would be the type of plastic container
Time for the inbound seven bus at 3 30 a. M. , takes 40 minutes to get to beale. The 942 bus, 40 minutes later. Those are peak travel commute times. Those minutes are real and they are in the sf mta 30day rapid schedule available online. More to that point of the 20 minutes being saved to the average commuter. That bus arrived in 30 minutes for those buses. I dont think you are going to take 30 off of that travel time. Eric mar mentioned that if this project gets implemented that the buses will be running every 4 minutes. They are already running every 4 minutes, during peak commute times.

Im cheryl, from the sf mta board but im speaking for myself. I am a transit rider. I used geary on a regular basis. Riders want Better Service. Quite simply brt is the plan to deliver the service we riders deserve. We cant lose sight how important this is for riders daily. This is expected to save 20 minutes per round trip as we heard. That is over 80 hours a year and 2 weeks back in your life. That is more time to shop, live with your family and work in this beautiful city. Well be able to get off the bus,
Collectively really pushed my own personal boundaries and challenged me to think really deeply about what it is that i believe in and how it is that, you know given whether its finite resources or what have you how it is that we make things happen. So, i do want to thank you for that because without people like you to push me, i dont think that i could also grow in this role. And so, to supervisor avalos, i will say we used to Work Together as legislative aides and you had a seamless transition becoming a supervisor.
