Hello!
UPDATE 3/10/1
We won another Public Hearing. SFMTA has placed the approval of the Yellow Zone on hold until we have a chance to make statements at the Public Hearing.
Date/ Time: Friday March 24th, 2017 10:00am
Location: Room 416, Hearing Room 4
San Francisco City Hall (On Van Ness Avenue between McCallister & Grove Streets)
A copy of this hearing notice can be obtained at www.sfmta.com/cms/ccurb/curbindx.htm Opinions on these proposed changes may be filed in writing prior to the hearing with the City Traffic Engineer at the Traffic Engineering Division, 1 South Van Ness Avenue, 7th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94103, via fax at 701-4737 or email at [email protected]. Submitted opinions will become part of the official public record and will be brought to the attention of the person(s) conducting the hearing. Information on the proposed changes may be obtained from the Traffic Engineering Division at the above-referenced address or by telephone at 701-4639
The business, Rinse, at 425/428 Treat Avenue, applied for a 200 foot Yellow Zone (100 feet to the left of their building, 100 feet to the right of their building) along the EAST side of Treat Avenue every day of the week from 6-8pm. (That is a removal of 10 parking spaces)
Notifications were posted by SFMTA just before the Public Hearing that took place on Friday January 27, 2017 10am. However, the notifications were barely able to be seen and went unnoticed by innumerable business owners in ActivSpace, the onsite Building Manager and VP of ActivSpace. The notifications posted are truly not in the spirit of the laws, bordering on unethical. The intention is to make sure the public can see the signs, therefore can read and respond with either showing up to the Public Hearing or writing viewing their voices. The Petitions face the sidewalk which are inhabited by a homeless encampment and makes it difficult to walk down the street to see the posted signs.
At the Public Hearing held on Friday January 27, 2017THE PETITION PASSED due to it being NON OPPOSED by the public.
Please take the time to sign this petition if you oppose the Yellow Zone and appeal the approval of the Yellow Zone. There is a space to write a note why you oppose the passing of the Yellow Zone.
Thank you very much!

The process is dragging on and the bureaucracy remains difficult to navigate. I have been spending my nights reviewing the technical regulations to ensure we are ready for the next round of meetings. This is exhausting work but we have to keep pushing because the neighborhood needs this to remain accessible.

One business can not dictate the parking needs and availability for a whole community. This negatively effects the other businesses along Treat as well as negatively effecting residents of the neighborhood that utilize of of the few remaining non permitted parking areas in the Mission.
I am a therapist who uses office space at the ActiveSpace building whose front door is on Treat Street. It is already challenging, if not almost impossible for clients to find parking around the area. Reserving 10 spaces for Rinse... will only exacerbate the problem and is not fair to the customers or tenants in the area.
It is aelteafy very difficult to park on Treat Street and multiple businesses are on it. It is not fair for one business to have monopoly of the street parking. Activspace has many more businesses and is more populated than Rinse is to begin with.
I depending on parking on treat street for services at activespace. as I come all the way from the Richmond, parking is generally virtually impossible as it is without the loss of these parking spaces. The notices seemed to be posted so people COULDN'T actually see them.
I strongly oppose the approval of the 200 foot Yellow Zone, removing 10+ parking spaces only Treat Avenue. My busiest client hours are between the hours of 6-8pm and I need all of the parking spaces available to my clients or it will negatively effect my business.
People double park all of the time in SF, and on this street for the audio company and other quick drops. Why does Rinse need to remove parking spaces at a crucial time for the businesses in active space ? And Rinse customers should be in and out in a minute. There is plenty of room to pass.
Parking will be even more compromised

The fact that they posted their hearing signs facing away from where anyone would see them, especially knowing that no one walks on that side because of the encampment, is soooooo shady.
