Impacts and of him implications that gives us a very public process and give us the feeling of oversight and control i say feeling that oversight and control is real so the benefit, however, it is public you get a see a lot of the bidding process and one of the aspects of this kind contracts less we didnt know who the contractors are and i think that makes the process and the integrity of the process subject to both reporting and auditing this is something the staff had conversations with the Controllers Office as well but i cant emphasis the importance of making sure this precedes in a way that that is every bit as transplant as other forms of contract and that if parties or rate payers or contractors feel the process is making that known and if there are any concerns that we have about some of the product of contracting process in terms of fairness or financial efficiency that we have a chance to address those so the staff develops is reporting processes i will be looking at those closely to make sure that process is met there was a memo back in march that explained why this contracting was appropriate this particular bit of work i think that was a convincing memo i think that should be needs to be part of Public Record i dont remember a couple of the concerns but it should be and that ever point were making decisions that effect the public value of contract and the Public Interest in the contract those decisions are made clear and justified as well so between auditing and reporting i think we have a High Standard to meet we have a great history in our Audit Program with the capital plan it is open and executive we have a good record and that kind of contract presents challenged so i have no problem with that but want to take the opportunity to say that about transparency. We hear our message and agree every bid package will be pubically bid and make sure we have at least 3 bids and also be cpmc will work with us to establish the goals for those. Good. The other thing because you know dpw in the dpw but public works mta is doing a lot so we are working with the other departments to kind of see those so wed like to go probably bring those as other projects are you know using the same delivery method. I was pleased to see that the controllers all of questions they want to look at are identified all the agencies as far as im concerned, so this is something i think we have our eyes open. And then the last thing i want to point out for your information my maybe eileen, speak to is one of tt admin cod more complex and you know cpmc. Lets not talk about that now laughter .

Yes, if you can line up over there by the wall . Im nooel johnson and i have been a resident of the bay area since i was 7. And i have been in San Francisco since 92. And i am a daily rider of muni and i also drive a car in San Francisco and i walked halfway here and i am also a pedestrian. And i was encouraged to apply for this to put my input in to the planning of the corridor. And what i have to offer is that i am smart and i can read the eir and documentation and understand what they are talking about and i have a lot of different insights into different roles that the people play along geary. And i would like to get involved in this because i want to stop complaining about muni and i want to do something constructive thank you. Thank you very much. Next applicant. All right. My name is nelson. If all of the applicants could speak into the microphone. Thank you. My name is nelson bunia and i have lived in the Richmond District for the last five years and i am a daily muni commuter and i took it to get here to 38. And i work downtown. In the past i have worked in morin and so i have driven a car and i drive and take the bus and so that gives me input into the Different Things that are trying to be managed my family is from la and there is a successful line there called the orange line which i have ridden men times and so i have the experience with the brt form of transportation and i want to give my input and bring a perspective of a commuter and a driver to try to make this be best project possible, and make the transit times as fast as possible for you know the thousands of people that take the 38 every day. Okay. Thank you. Next applicant . Hi. My name is osher, and i have lived in the Richmond District the entire time that i have been in San Francisco and i dont own a car and so i am dependant on muni. And i really think that it is important to make this line work well. And i have been working with a number of different transit advocates in district one over the past couple of months. To really try and make that people get excited about this line and i think that it is really important to make sure that everyones voices are heard in the process. And i think that i could do a job representing the riders of the line. Hello. My name is renee, and i believe that i am number ten on the list and i am here for a few reasons. Number one, i have been living in the richmond and raising a family for about eight years now. My son is in school so of course, i am interested in providing the quickest and safest Transportation System for him. In the Richmond District. Secondly, i have lived overseas in a lot of countries and cities where they have fantastic Transportation Systems. I think that is an area where i can add some value to the brt program. And thirdly, i do have some experience with the Public Transportation and the city traffic engineering. When i was at grad school i worked for the city traffic engineer and provided a lot of help to the staff there and coordinating meetings and working with the community and it is something that i enjoyed and i would enjoy getting back into. And i believe those are all of the reasons. I understand that there are two positions. One for the richmond and one for at large. I would prefer the richmond if i do get appointed because that is where i live. But the at large position would be fine as well. That is all that i have to add here, i hope that you will consider me for this position, thank you. Thank you very much good morning, my name is stanford kingly and i am a native san franciscan and a life long resident of the city and 32 years in the Richmond District and life long on the muni many years on the 38 including yesterday, this is an important project, 50,000 people a day ride this bus, the Richmond District is one of the few neighborhoods that does not have access to a high speed form of transit like bart or street car. But it is also very complicated project. It the median strip issues, the underpasses, the rest of and most of the businesses that are on geary boulevard are owner operated and they are mom and pop businesses. We have a few banks and some chains. But most of them, 80 percent of them are owneroperated. And it is important to this be a sustainable project that is something that they do in the ride off during the construction phase. And have that still becomes an attractive place for people to go for to take care of their needs for the dry cleaners and go to the restaurants that line the boulevard. I am a lawyer by training i now have a full time medation practice. One of the things that i do as an immediate aa mediator is that all of the par papts have the voices heard. I think that it will add to the process in that manner. Make sure that we can get the fair process, where a lot of constituents want to speak and be heard and come up with a solution, idealy that meets the needs of all of the parties concerned. So, i urge, you know, urge your support for my candidacy and like the previous speaker i would be happy with either position. At large or richmond. Thank you very much. My name is thomas, and i moved in San Francisco . 1962 with my parents and sibings and i went to elementary and junior high and the high school in the district and the city college and uc berkeley. I got an engineering degree. A botachelor and a masters degr. I have been working for a corporation in the downtown San Francisco continuously for 37 years. So, right now, i commute every day in the 38 blocks to work. And on the weekends, i drive through the geary street and so i need to have the driving and the bus because it goes smoothly. And in the company i have been working on the regular projects both design build projects and i also have some experience in construction support. So in summary, i grew up and educated in and near San Francisco and i work in San Francisco, and i have experience in and related to Construction Projects and i guess time is up. So but, i have the vested interest to improve the daily street traffic now and into the future and based on my education and Work Experience i hope that you will be able to understand and analyze different proposals thank you. Thank you very much. Good morning, my name is alexander post and i am from the heights and i appeared before this Committee Last month at the april 17th hearing. So i will try not to repeat myself too much here. But you got my application materials. But in summary, i am very passionate about Public Transportation and i have particularly interests in the geary street corridor because i am a regular user of the 38, and the bx, and i am excited about the prospect of Rapid Transit along the corridor and so i think that that passion along with my legal and policy experience will make me an effective ambassador, both for the project and to the project to bring the city wide concerns to the Advisory Committee. And i just want to pass one down, i attended the Advisory Committee meeting on april, 28th. Where they were actually one number short of the quorum, which forced the significant delay and they actually then lost the quorum before they were and because one of the agenda items was neighborhood out reach, and you had many concerned citizens who take in the time out to come to the meeting and including representatives from two japan town neighborhood groups as well as representatives from the planning and association for the richmond. And who all understandable are frustrated at the process. So i think what this committee may need most of all is someone who is willing to take the committee and the projects seriously. And if you appoint me, i will be that person. And just a final note. I know the previous at large Position Holder was a richmond resident and so i think that it would be good to diversify the at large position to other neighborhoods. Thank you for considering my ka dancy. Thank you very much. Last call for any applicants who are here for item four . Okay. Seeing number we know colleagues, i know that it is in our hands now, commissioner breed . She wanted to Say Something before we go to Public Comment.
