APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES
Approval of the March 17, 2015, Board Meeting Minutes.
SPECIAL ORDER 2:00 P.M. - Mayor's Appearance Before The Board
Pursuant to Charter Section 3.100(7), the Mayor shall appear, in person, at one regularly scheduled
meeting of the Board of Supervisors each month to engage in formal policy discussions with members
of the Board. This item will be read at the Board Meeting on the second Tuesday of each month,
unless rescheduled by the Mayor and the Board President. The Mayor and the Board may not discuss
matters that have already been considered in Committee and that are on the Board's Agenda as an
action item.
By supermajority vote of the Board of Supervisors (8 votes), the Board may, by oral motion, allow an
eligible District Supervisor to ask a question that was not previously posed if the question relates to a
sudden or unexpected incident or occurrence raising formal, time-sensitive policy questions that were
not anticipated prior to the posting of this agenda. Public comment for this item will take place during
general public comment.

Board of Supervisors Meeting Agenda Tuesday, April 21, 2015
1. 150361 [Formal Policy Discussions - April 21, 2015]
Pursuant to Charter, Sections 2.103 and 3.100(7), and Administrative Code, Section
2.11, the Mayor shall answer the following eligible questions submitted from Supervisors
representing Districts 1 and 3. The Mayor may address the Board initially for up to five
minutes. Discussion shall not exceed five minutes per Supervisor.
1. Mr. Mayor, last year San Francisco passed groundbreaking legislation that will raise
our minimum wage as well as provide predictable scheduling and job retention
protections for part-time and on-call chain store workers. In order for these new rights to
have any impact we need to ensure that our ability to enforce these laws is sufficient.
This means that staffing levels at the Office of Labor Standards Enforcement have to be
increased but it also means that we need to fund community based organizations that
can supplement our ability to reach out to workers who may be reticent to claim their
rights.
Can we count on your office to fund for these critical needs through our upcoming
budget process? (Supervisor Mar, District 1)
2. Mr. Mayor, Current plans for the Central Subway will end the T Line at Chinatown.
That will leave Fisherman’s Wharf, North Beach, Russian and Telegraph Hills and north
Chinatown with only the current surface transit service and without transfer opportunities
for bus lines serving neighborhoods to the West.
Last fall’s report by the San Francisco County Transit Authority, the San Francisco
Municipal Transit Authority, and the San Francisco Planning Department provide
compelling evidence of the need to continue the Central Subway to Fisherman’s Wharf.
By extending the subway just two more stops, ridership is projected to increase on the T
Line from 74,000 folks per day, to 115,000 per day. This is a significant increase in
ridership, providing added pedestrian safety to the surface streets by reducing
pedestrian and vehicle traffic through some of our heaviest thoroughfares in some of our
most dense neighborhoods in the City.
Extending the Central Subway will cut the commute time between Moscone Center and
Fisherman’s Wharf in half. 8,400 people work in Fisherman’s Wharf on any given day,
and nearly 200 jobs in Fisherman’s Wharf went unfilled at the end of last year because
of the current commute to the northeast neighborhood. These numbers don’t include the
millions of visitors per year reported by our visitor’s centers, and convention and travel
organizations.
Considering the compelling data, and enthusiastic support from residents, what can the
City do to signal its seriousness in moving forward with extending our Central Subway
and T-Line? (Supervisor Christensen, District 3)
Discussion: The Mayor shall DISCUSS eligible questions with the Board of Supervisors.
