NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE INITIATIVE PETITION Notice is hereby given by the persons whose names appear hereon of their intention to circulate a petition within the Public Transit Revenue Measure District for the purpose of placing on the November 3, 2026, general election ballot a measure to prevent catastrophic service cuts to Bay Area public transit systems and to provide for road repairs, thereby preserving critical transportation systems that residents depend on every day to get to and from work, school, doctor's appointments, grocery shopping, and social activities. A statement of the reasons for the proposed action as contemplated in the petition is as follows: The Bay Area's public transit network is the backbone of the region's economy and communities, connecting residents and visitors to job sites, businesses, schools and universities, health care, recreation, and various other services and life activities. However, public transit systems are experiencing severe financial pressures as federal and state funding is expiring. Without new sources of funding, transit agencies will be required to significantly reduce services including elimination of entire lines, closure of stations, reductions in service frequency, contraction of service hours and elimination of service on weekends. In order to prevent such devastating cuts, this measure will impose a temporary sales and use tax of 0.5% in the Counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, and Santa Clara, and 1% in the City and County of San Francisco, which is expected to generate approximately $980 million annually that will support BART, San Francisco Muni, Caltrain, AC Transit, VTA, Golden Gate Transit, San Francisco Bay Ferry, road repair and repaving, Clipper START and other reduced-fare programs, and improved disability access programs, all in the five Bay Area counties. Funds generated by this measure will be subject to strict oversight and accountability requirements, including financial efficiency reviews and oversight by an independent committee to ensure all revenues are spent on their intended purposes. Funds may be withheld from specified transit agencies that do not meet certain standards of safety, cleanliness, service, and other standards. /s/ /s/ Emily Loper Lian Chang Proponents of the Initiative
