SFMTA: Stop Extension of 38 Geary Bus Stop at 48th Ave & Geary Blvd!The proposed 20-foot extension of the 38 Geary bus stop into the intersection at the northwest corner of 48th Ave and Geary Blvd in front of Sutro Heights Park is bad for the neighborhood for many reasons, including but not limited to the following: 1. Makes safely crossing the street (48th Ave) on the north side of the intersection (where there is no stop sign or crosswalk) impossible and much more dangerous for pedestrians 2. Impedes access to Sutro Heights Park for neighborhood residents, children, dog walkers, and recreationalists 3. Will reduce parking spaces in the neighborhood for residents and visitors 4. Increases the potential for accidents at the intersection (where there is no stop sign and a history of accidents with MUNI) as buses will be pulling out from a parked position into a 90-degree direct left turn onto 48th Ave 5. Passengers will now catch the bus in the middle of the intersection where there is no stop sign or crosswalk and be dropped off in the same place, which is very dangerous (what about wheelchair or handicapped passengers?) 6. Increased congestion, noise, and litter at the intersection The proposed bus stop extension does not improve our neighborhood. It will endanger pedestrians, motorists, and bus passengers at the intersection, and impede public access to Sutro Heights Park. Please sign this petition if you are in agreement to oppose the extension of the 38 Geary bus stop prior to the Engineering Public Hearing at City Hall on February 2nd, 2018 at 10 am when the issue will be heard. Thank you for your support.66 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Chris Sheldon

Michigan Gas Sales Tax to Only Be Used For InfrastructureThe roads of this state are extremely dangerous and often times cause significant damage to cars, cause accidents and in some cases people almost losing their lives to falling debris. There's no time left on the ticking time bomb of michigan infrastructure. Paving Blacktop over crumbling roads is simply no longer a viable plan of action.33 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Markus J Schneider

Save Mission St.! We need affordable housing!The Mission District is over the amount of market-rate housing that was calculated in the 2008 Eastern Neighborhoods Plan. We are in dire need of affordable housing. This project provides 75 Luxury units, only 8 affordable and is 8 stories high. This project also has negative health impacts on the SFUSD public school children next door. Please uphold our appeal and protect our children! This will be heard at the Full Board of Supervisors, February 13, 2018. This project is at 2918 Mission St. @ 25th. Calle 24 Latino Cultural District263 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Erick arguello

Move against methadone clinic in our neighborhoodI've lived my life here 15 years and Dennis Township and Eldora haven't had nearly as many drug-related issues going on as other cities in Cape May County. Why would it be a good idea to bring a methadone clinic into our peaceful, quiet neighborhood full of children? Bringing this methadone clinic into our neighborhood will only cause issues. There's an illegal New Jersey Transit stop at the location where this new clinic wants to open doors. This is a recipe for disaster.202 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Rene Jones

Traffic Stop Light NeededWe, residential citizens and homeowners residing in the city of Des Moines, WA, call on the Washington State Department of Transportation to install a traffic stop light at the corner of South 263rd Street and Pacific Highway South/State Highway 99. In 2005, a section of Pacific Highway South in Des Moines, WA was approved for rezoning by the city of Des Moines officials. The zoning conformed a section along Pacific Highway South from commercial to residential. This area today has 68 single family homes, and a small, undeveloped commercially zoned lot. These single-family homes were constructed between 2011-2016. The homeowners of this community only have ONE outlet to enter and exit this community, this being State Highway 99/Pacific Highway South. The 68 homeowners and the patrons and staff of Health Point clinic face daily congestion entering and exiting on South 263rd Street to and from State Highway 99. There is a high volume of traffic daily using South 263rd Street by the 68 homeowners and the patrons and staff of the Health Point Clinic. Parking is permitted on both the north and south side of the street on South 263rd Street, which is another contributing factor to the congestion entering and exiting on South 263rd Street. The merging conditions are unsafe onto Pacific Highway South/State Highway 99, from South 263rd Street, both merging north and south during rush hour. There are times other than rush hour when Pacific Highway South is busier than normal due to various circumstance pertaining to Interstate 5- accidents, construction, exit closures, etc. More often than not, the drivers on Pacific Highway South are exceeding the speed limit which makes entering traffic difficult. There are no stop lights or crosswalks between 260th-272nd Pacific Highway South, which contributes to the drivers exceeding the posted speed limit. It is illegal to cross more than one lane of traffic, this illegal lane crossing frequently happens when drivers exiting South 263rd Street need to go in the northbound direction on Highway 99. This is very unsafe. Technically the stop sign in place now on the SW corner of South 263rd Street should indicate that only a right turn is permitted. The U-Turn lane located directly across from South 263rd Street, that everyone exiting from South 263rd Street uses to go northbound on State Highway 99 is unusable from South 263rd Street, as reaching this turnaround/U-turn requires crossing more than one lane of traffic. This is not only illegal but unsafe. Considering that Pacific Highway South is the only outlet in and out of the Landmarque community of 68 single family homes, and also for the Health Point Clinic patrons and staff, we deem a traffic stop light necessary and should be installed at the intersection of South 263rd Street and State Highway 99/Pacific Highway South. The installation of a traffic stop light will provide SAFE and timely ingress and egress to and from our community to go North and South on Pacific Highway South/State Highway 99. This traffic stop light would also be beneficial for the patrons and staff of the Health Point Clinic located on the SW corner of South 263rd Street and Pacific Highway South. This clinic has at least 75 cars in and out daily entering and exiting on South 263rd Street, Monday-Friday. There is also a concern that we would NOT be able to expeditiously exit our community in the event of an emergency onto a busy State Highway with a 45 MPH speed limit. For the reasons stated above, we are of the opinion that a traffic stop light installation is necessary and warranted at Pacific Highway South and South 263rd Street.13 of 100 SignaturesCreated by stephanie slaughter

Tiny Houses for Homeless VeteransHomeless Veterans I am employed as a Veteran's advocate through my State. In the 11+ years I've been there, I've sought programs for many veterans in need.

Additional funding for Para Transit service in CaliforniaI have been personally affected by this issue because I am a disabled woman who relies on my local paratransit service SunDial for my job, medical appointments, and social activities. Due to low ridership and limited funding, Sunline Transit Agency, the company that operates SunDial, has had to do away with and reroute lines to emulate the regular Sunline lines for fixed routes. This greatly affects the local disabled population in the Coachella Valley. There is a 90-day grace period from January 7th, 2018 to April 7th, 2018 for my local disabled community to find alternative modes of transportation when SunDial is not in operation, A rainy day fund would prevent this from happening in the future.

Respect Transit Workers! Lower the Transit Fares!This petition was started in December 2017 at a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) bus garage after many of our coworkers were unjustly fired. Some of our allies helped to create this video of two transit workers who were assaulted at work – then fired by the transit agency! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCRQHbQjvJM&feature=share We started with about 100 hand-written signatures from transit workers at this one garage and are using this online petition to ask workers from other workplaces and allies to sign with us. If you support the hard work transit workers do for society, please join us by signing this petition and forwarding the link to others to sign too.235 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Erek Slater

Unidos por Puerto Rico money for the people in need, not the parksUse money donated to Unidos por Puerto Rico to help people who lost their homes to Hurricane Maria, and not to fix parks. The proposal from Beatriz Roselló and her “Office of the First Lady”, does not represent the intentions of the millions of people who donated money. Money should be used to build/rebuild homes of those in need.16 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Vera Rosado
