Petition
We the undersigned, petition the SF Major’s office, Board of Supervisors, Municipal Transportation Authority, Planning Department and Commission, Health Department, Department of Public Works and The SF Small Business Commission to NOT ALLOW BUSES on Union Street for the following reasons: Articulated buses are TOO LARGE for the narrow streets of Cow Hollow causing RISK to pedestrians and ADA SAFETY and ACCESSIBILITY; LOSS of ECONOMIC VITALITY to business due to PARKING LOSSES and RESTRICTIONS: negative impact on business deliveries as well as BLOCKING ACCESS AND VISIBILITY to businesses. Placing the END OF THE LINE TURNAROUND AT Steiner and the “RESTING” of buses in front of stories, offices, bed and breakfast inns on Union DENIES the merchants the RIGHT to FREE ENTERPRISE. Adjacent residences on Union and side streets, especially GREEN, will have access to their driveways SEVER LY IMPACTED. Articulated Buses were designed for major thoroughfares NOT FOR SMALL neighborhoods, business and residential districts with NARROW STREETS like Cow Hollow.
