♦Items denoted with a diamond ( ♦ ) can be given approval by
the City Traffic Engineer after the public hearing. Otherwise,
the SFMTA Board will make the final approval at a later date
based on the outcome at the public hearing.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Appeal Rights
under Chapter 31 of the San Francisco Administrative Code:
For Approval Actions, the Planning Department has issued
a CEQA exemption determination or negative declaration,
which may be viewed online at
http://www.sf-planning.org/index.aspx?page=3447. Following
approval of the item by the SFMTA City Traffic Engineer,
the CEQA determination is subject to appeal within the time
frame specified in S.F. Administrative Code Section 31.16,
typically within 30 calendar days of the Approval Action.
For information on filing a CEQA appeal, contact the Clerk
of the Board of Supervisors at City Hall, 1 Dr. Carlton B.
Goodlett Place, Room 244, San Francisco, CA 94102, or call
(415) 554-5184. Under CEQA, in a later court challenge, a
litigant may be limited to raising only those issues previously
raised at a hearing on the project or in written correspondence
delivered to the Board of Supervisors or other City board,
commission or department at, or prior to, such hearing, or as part
of the appeal hearing process on the CEQA decision.
Whether the City Traffic Engineer’s decision is considered a Final
SFMTA Decision is determined by Division II, Section 203 of the
Transportation Code. If the City Traffic Engineer approves a parking
or traffic modification, this decision is considered a Final SFMTA
Decision. If a City Traffic Engineer disapproves a parking or traffic
modification and a member of the public requests SFMTA review of that
decision, the additional review shall be conducted pursuant to Division II,
Section 203 of the Transportation Code. City Traffic Engineer decisions
will be posted on https://www.sfmta.com/committees/engineering-public-hearings
by 5 p.m. on the Friday following the public hearing. Final SFMTA Decisions
involving certain parking or traffic modifications, whether made by the City
Traffic Engineer or the SFMTA Board, can be reviewed by the Board of Supervisors
pursuant to Ordinance 127-18. Information about the review process can be found
at: https://sfbos.org/sites/default/files/SFMTA_Action_Review_Info_Sheet.pdf.
