neighborhood meeting

Dear Mr. Carnes

I am in receipt of your March 20th letter regarding your invitation to
the SFMTA to attend a meeting on March 26. I have followed up with
staff regarding your concerns and I understand that staff has already
provided a response to many of the questions raised in your letter.

I am also informed that the SFMTA is in the process of scheduling a
community meeting on April 17 to discuss the SFMTA's construction
plan. This meeting will be attended by President David Chiu, Director
Ed Reiskin and the entire North Beach community will be welcome. You
are more than welcome to join us at the April 17th meeting.
Invitations will be forthcoming next week. In the meantime, staff has
continued to meet one on one with neighborhood businesses to address
their concerns regarding the upcoming construction.

We are particularly pleased that we were able to find such a quick
solution for the concerns expressed by North Beach neighbors for the
extraction site for the tunnel boring machines, through the work of
multiple city agencies working with the community to get the project
approved. The completion of the Central Subway Project is important
to the future of San Francisco's great public transportation system
and many are looking forward to this much-needed service.

At this point in time, given the extensive outreach and changes made
in response to the concerns of all of the communities along the
corridor, it's time to move forward and that's what we plan to do.

Sincerely,

Tom Nolan
Chairman, SFMTA Board of Directors
