AB 413 is a one-size-fits-all law that does not consider its major consequences in SF and other urban areas. A cost-benefit analysis should be performed that considers the incremental increase public safety with daylighting low-, medium-, and high-risk intersections compared to its negative impacts on residents, businesses, and tourists from the proportional loss of parking spaces. Other options, such as daylighting high-risk or high/medium-risk intersections only, should be considered. This will allow the State to achieve similar pedestrian safety objectives without widespread loss of parking, especially in cities where parking is already a challenge.
Closest to our house, we will lose 4 parking spaces, which may slightly increase visibility around a quiet intersection. However, noticeably fewer parking spots to share will impact the daily lives of our family and our neighbors.
We choose to raise our family in SF, which means that we are often corralling kids and schlepping groceries, backpacks, etc., to and from our car. We do not have the luxury of a garage, so street parking is our only option. Losing 4 parking spots on our corner will routinely result in more time looking for parking and parking much farther from our house. We have elderly neighbors for whom the increased distance is more than just frustration and inconvenience.
We don’t need anything else to drive people out of San Francisco. Daylighted targeted intersections would be a much better compromise to both improve pedestrian safety in highest risk intersections and reduce negative impacts to people and businesses.
Hedy supported: Repeal AB-413 Twenty Foot Parking Loss at every IntersectionWe need our parking space. I am handicap and need to go to the doctors and to get medicine. Taking public transportation is extremely difficult for mobility. Plus, do r feel safe anymore. Sf is a mess. Thanks
Ana supported: Repeal AB-413 Twenty Foot Parking Loss at every IntersectionThe struggle to find parking steals hours out of my week as things stand now. Removing more spots will only do more harm. Leading to more and more people leaving the city. Please repeal
Casey supported: Repeal AB-413 Twenty Foot Parking Loss at every Intersection20’ seems excessive for every SF intersection. In SF, it may make more sense to have 20’ for major intersections and 2 - 4’ for other intersections. It was difficult to find parking in residential neighborhoods before this law passed. This law will make parking worse, while applying a one size fits all approach that doesn’t make sense in a densely populated city.
Tessa supported: Repeal AB-413 Twenty Foot Parking Loss at every IntersectionI agree that pedestrian safety is important but this puts an undue burden on those with disabilities and mobility issues who already have VERY limited of options to park near their residence.
