MTA defends budget tie to November measures; Sunday parking enforcement set to end July 1 if approved
Summary
SFMTA Director Ed Reiskin told the supervisors the agency's operating and capital plans rely on November ballot measures — a $500 million bond and restoration of the vehicle license fee — that would, if approved, fund service increases, Muni Forward projects, WalkFirst and Vision Zero work; the MTA board unanimously approved removing Sunday parking meter enforcement, slated to end July 1 if enacted.
Ed Reiskin, director of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, presented the MTA's two-year operating and capital outlook, emphasizing equity, service improvements and the agency's dependence on proposed November ballot measures to fund major investments.
Reiskin said Muni averages more than 700,000 weekday boardings and serves many low-income and transit-dependent riders. He described a newly formalized equity framework adopted by the MTA board that compares neighborhood-level performance (on-time reliability, crowding, travel times, and customer satisfaction) to the system average and uses those comparisons to prioritize corrective actions and capital investments.
