TLC, together with our sustainable transportation allies San  
Francisco Bicycle Coalition, Walk San Francisco, and Rescue Muni, are  
hosting an evening reception for Bill Lieberman, head of the new  
Planning Department at the Municipal Transportation Agency's (MTA).  
Mr. Lieberman was chosen as the first head of this new department,  
which TLC took a leading role in creating. He is tasked with  
integrating the formerly scattered planning functions within MTA, and  
with helping MTA plan for all transportation modes, including  
walking, bicycling, and transit.

This event is FREE to current TLC members. If you are not currently  
TLC member, please join at the event, or make a sliding scale  
donation of $5-20.

Getting the Parking Right and Creating Complete Streets
Thursday, July 28th
12:30-1:30 PM
SPUR offices, 312 Sutter Street (at Grant), Fifth Floor.

Transportation for a Livable City (TLC) recently worked with San  
Francisco State University's Senior Seminar to undertake two  
transportation studies. What’s Parking Got To Do With It? examines  
how providing too much parking in new housing results in higher car  
ownership rates and increased vehicle congestion. Why Can’t San  
Francisco Complete Its Streets? examines best practices from other  
cities that have successfully implemented “complete streets”  
policies. TLC Executive Director Tom Radulovich and the research  
teams will present their findings and recommend policy reforms San  
Francisco needs to make now to get our parking policies right.

SPUR Forums are open to the public, free for SPUR members and $5 for  
non-members. Feel free to bring a lunch.
