Is no way that were going to be able to accommodate the growth in our city, and accommodating more folks on transit. Living out in supervisor elsbernds district, riding the n, we still see buses that are annex, for example, is at capacity. Supervisor chiu chu, i know you get regular switchbacks, missed runs, overcrowded buses, all these things happen when we underfund our system. We certainly hope that you recognize the great work that has happened here thats before you, that we can take advantage of the opportunity and recognize that we have to do way more with a whole lot less, streams from the federal government and the State Government have dried up or are drying up. Opportunities like this, creative, innovative ways to find funding and support our system that so desperately needs it are going to be few and far between. So that much being said, i thank you for your time and your energy. I look forward to working with all of you in this, and in other transportation decisions to come
Nothing more than a refresher. To have a complete policy change in this legislation would be a mistake. So with that as my intro, for my justification as to why i think we need to do this, i do not ask the City Attorney to prepare the written language because frankly untangling it would have led toe a manner and the intent here is to offer an amendment that would replace the proposed language back with our current language so that all nonprofits will remain exempt from this tidf fee.

Supervisor campos thank you very much. I want to begin by thanking supervisor wiener and the mta for taking on this issue. I agree that this is something that has to be looked at, and i dont know that i have any disagreement with the general principles and concept that has been laid out. You know, we wantqqjyv everyoneo have take some responsi
That is why i will be voting against the amendment. Thank you. President chiu i will be supporting supervisor elsbernds amendment today. I think that it doesnt make sense for a simple renewal at this time for us not to continue existing policies. That being said, i absolutely agree with the transit community, that we need to have a real dialogue around longterm Funding Solutions for our transportation system, and i want to reiterate, my appreciation for the good faith commitment made by leaders in the Nonprofit Community, that we near future, and having a dialogue about nonprofit involvement with the potential Transportation Sustainability program, which is currently undergoing environmental review. I think we need to do that. We have to figure out how all of us, that have impacts on the transportation system, are helping to ensure that were paying for that. And we also have to make sure that all of our residents can access, through transit, the Nonprofit Community provides. So i very
That all of our residents can access, through transit, the Nonprofit Community provides. So i very much look forward to that conversation, and im taking on good faith that we are going to have a real conversation about that in the coming months.
