it is the recent the department of transportation exists. we thought we knew all there was to know about the shape of the problems and concerns concerning safety on every dimension that comes under the purview of the department, from highway safety to aviation safety to pipelines, hazardous material and more. all of that has taken on a new level of meaning and urgency beginning just about a year ago with the covid-19 pandemic. we have already seen president biden issue, swiftly and decisively, executive orders designed to make sure the american public is safe from the pandemic, including a lot of things with implications for the transportation sector. we will do everything we can to make sure we are using federal authority on interstate travel and everything regulated at the federal level, recognizing that when it comes to mandates, that does not always extend to some of the things that are under the purview of local or regional authorities. the imperative will be to make sure we are supporting those authorities and doing whatever else is ne

a lot of the transportation levels. on the other hand, we also know this is not just about getting back to what we had before. because this really is an opportunity not to build back to where we were, but as the present office often says, to build back better. with the broader recovery package that is coming, i think it represents an opportunity not seen since the era of stimulus package 2009, and in many ways perhaps more potential than we sell there. this will do new things, to a generations worth of work and assortment of time. deploying those resources is being very smart aboutd the machinery and antic severity half. and looking beyond them to find new ways to directly support committees, to directly engage mayors, and to make sure that that formula and discretionary funds are getting out there, efficiently quickly and in accordance with those product priorities i just laid out. we can't do that with partnership of american mayors. and i'm going to be looking forward to bring in that mayors eye view into the departm

secretary of transportation under president trump. i think particularly after her president had been abused, to incite his people, to go to the capitol, overturn the election, she couldn't take it any longer. and for the people who are leaving the white house as well, matt pottinger and others who have resigned, this is a statement of how they reacted to what the president did and what he's been doing in recent weeks. >> harris: she says that her resignation as u.s. secretary of transportation will take effect on monday january 11th, and she will help her successor, mayor pete buttigieg, with taking on the responsibilities of this department. karl rove, please come back on

the president talked about it today, and that is masks in public transportation, intrastate transportation, every airport, every airplane. how are you going to enforce that? what's the mechanism in place ready to go for that? >> the d.o.t. has always been about safety whether we're talking about the faa and air travel in this country or any of the other kind of dimensions of the department. usually when we think about safety and transportation of course we're thinking about preventing crashes, and that continues to be the core mission of the department. but now we've been reminded of a whole other element of traveller and worker safety and transportation. that's preventing the spread of the virus. it's why the president acted right away with an executive order that's laying out the need for mask mandates, to use those federal authorities, whether we're talking about airports, airplanes, intercity buses, trains. essentially wherever there's a federal responsibility to keep passengers and workers safe. that extends to doing something about keeping them safe from covid. we're going to be -- i

right now, public transportation, what is filtered down to the average person like myself is that transportation should be taken for essential trips and if you are not taking for essential trips, you shouldn't take it and so, we have not officially end the shelter in place order and we're telling the san francisco public it's ok to use public transportation again first. i think vaccinations will help. getting people back to school will help and reopening our downtown, our convention centers, our events, all those things are going to meet to first happen in order to feel comfortable again taking public transportation. so i think the next three to six months will be very critical and there's been a cooling effect on not just people taking public transport but everything and of course we know this in our commercial corridors. you can get take out delivery and you can shop at retail but because of the news, not just in our city but around the country, folks are trying to do their and many cases mean staying home. the way the sfmta handled which lines to cut, to me, seemed like the right framework to

department of transportation guidance for transportation infrastructure procurements of this type. next slide, please, eusenia. one element i also want to highlight from anna's comments is the reimbursement of local business enterprise design firms. that was a requirement of the r.f.q. and will be a continuing requirement in future phases of the project which would be a requirement in san francisco. these large firms, they have the ability to invest funds at risk in many of these processes, however, many of the contractors and subs that support them don't have that capability, and especially the l.b.e., the local business enterprise firms, so part of the reimbursement benefit agreement is to prioritize the -- the payment for those firms. the next slide, eusenia. i also want to highlight precedents that we were asked to put forward. this is just an example of a larger number in california, some bigger and some somewhat smaller than this one, although you can see there's precedents around the country, as well. you can see the reimbursement payments in these, from 500,000 to $2 millio

via pipelines or ships to germany to transport you. ok so the message is renewable energy would have to be expanded massively to produce enough hydrogen but not only is there still a lack of my children but also with the necessary infrastructure such as filling stations in the capital berlin there are currently just 5 hydrogen filling stations and a total of 90 throughout germany. filling up takes just 3 minutes and then the car can travel 500 kilometers. just remotely driving 100. costs just as much as with a diesel engine so it's not more expensive for the customer the industry has agreed to build a significant number of filling stations up to $400.00 of them without looking at exactly how many cars there actually are. and there's support from policymakers not just to expand renewable energies but also hydrogen production in december the german government launched a new pilot project in chile siemens plans to produce synthetic fuels using hydrogen experts think that h 2 technology in the form of fuel cells is also being taken more se

is this what the future of transportation looks like probably not at least not in time soon but when today's inventors and visionaries look at the streets sidewalks highways and even agricultural land of the present they see vehicles that could soon be dusty exhibits in museums in the midst of change and that's our theme today are made from a to b. the mobility of the future it's good to have you with us well they're among the most popular passenger vehicles of the present s.u.v.s what began as a bare bones military vehicle the sport utility vehicle or s.u.v. is now one of the most popular set of wheels on the road today's versions may be better engineer than their predecessors they are still expensive large and not very economical critics say they clog up traffic and pollute the air they are a huge earner for the automobile industry just why are s.u.v. so popular what is it that fascinates so many drivers my colleague walter wrote a column on when to take a look. big . bigger. all of the world's people are crazy about as you've. always been used as a status signifiers. just the grea

we have concerns about transportation, air quality, housing availability in the community. this isn't about blocking ucsf they need to renovate it's pushing back against over development and giving real considerations to the jobs and housing balances that have been troubling the city before they moved forward. i support the resolution to delay the vote. >> thank you, next speaker, please. you have two minutes. >> caller: hello, supervisors, i'm a policy manager at the barrie council and i'll calling in support of ucsf parnassus plan and m.o.u. with the city and i am proud to support this -- and having continue to take the community back. it will have serious consequences from the public's health. as we would covid-19 pandemic in the medical needs. this project is limit today campus has not expanded further into neighborhoods and they are sim making improvement that's will benefit the community including $20 million of public transit improvements. i suppose sort building 1,000 housing units and ensuring that 30% of affordable to the workforce which so important. it's just im

at the same time, in terms of transportation, we're looking at transportation not just to that, but also the regional as the workers will come from different places. the fact that the $20 million [indiscernible] as well, in terms of of the e.i.r., is that equitable enough. when i'm looking into this m.o.u., how equitable is this? as i'm looking at the housing requirements, the fact that it's up to 90% a.m.i. and 1% a.m.i. and there is a first down limited assistance program for the ucsf employees which i would like to see better spread. i would like to see an m.o.u. that is specific and having vague language in terms of up to 90% doesn't sit well on me. >>> another thing is in terms of partnership in behavioral science is i think we have to have measurable and equitable terms of what that means. i would like to see more numbers. i think that's how i would like to see the city looking into the m.o.u.s so we are accountable and the ucsf is accountable in this m.o.u. benefit. if my comments start, i would like to have more time on this m.o.u. and [indiscernible] to consider the impact direc
