The #SFMTA Board of Directors is having its two-day board workshop. Today and tomorrow. It's started already. You can watch it at SFGovTV. Usually the workshops are done every year to discuss the transit agency's future goals, transit and budget. #SFMuni
Last year's workshop was held at SFCTA. Obviously this year, it's done virtually. My favorite location of the workshop meeting in years past was at The Green Room (War Memorial).
SFMTA Director of Transportation Jeff Tumlin will ask directors to weight the following values against each other.
#SFMTA will need "substantial outside funding" in order to even begin recovery from the pandemic, Tumlin says. #SFMuni
Chief Economist Ted Egan now giving a financial update on The City. That's important because of how much funding comes out of the general fund to the #SFMTA.

SF Controller Ben Rosenfield's observations.
Director of Transit Julie Kirschbaum now up on the #SFMTA's achievements over the last yearing during the Covid-19 pandemic. Equity was an important factor in putting back service as demographics changed on who was relying on #SFMuni.
Kirschbaum says given the current fiscal environment, there's still the ability to add back some #SFMuni service later this year once capacity restrictions are lifted and as The City moves toward herd immunity.
Bringing back service on the hilly streets of The City is a top priority, Kirschbaum says. #sfbos introduced a resolution last week, voting today, urging the #SFMTA to expedite bringing back #SFMuni service. https://sfbayca.com/2021/01/29/supervisors-push-for-speedy-return-of-muni-lines/
