Next, we'll vote on a package of legislation that stems from my 2024 State of the City.
0:23:20
The first five year streets master plan was due in December 2021.
0:23:25
Since then, the city has consistently fallen short on its milestones, including the miles of protected bus lanes and bike lanes required to be built each year.
0:23:35
The council has consistently pressed DOT to provide updates to their progress, but they have been unwilling to do so.
0:23:42
Today's legislation will advance greater transparency on the status of projects that contribute to the street's master plan to promote accountability.
0:23:51
Next introduction, one one one four a, sponsored by council member Julie One, would require DOT to maintain a capital tracker for its projects, updated three times a year with more granular data about each of its projects.
0:24:05
This tracker will provide greater transparency into DOT's capital planning process than is currently provided by the citywide capital projects dashboard.

We thank our staff members Jessica Foon and Mark Chen.

And introduction 11 o five, sponsored by majority whip, Selvina Brooks Powers, would require DOT to provide a road map of all projects planned for that year that will contribute to the requirements of the streets master plan.
0:24:29
The department would be required to provide updates three times a year.
0:24:33
Additionally, DOT would be required to provide monthly updates on the progress of projects during their construction phase.

We thank our staff member Mark Chen.
