as speaking many had a private citizen nike think it behoves you to get the inspectaculars out that. you're not enforcing this and the cabdrivers were having to line up behind them. i wanted to say that it doesn't look good that or i would ask you to support chris when she goes before those people. their bought and sold. you see they shut her off and i want you to pass a resolution to pass what she has to go through >> (calling names).

9:48 pm
couple of you hours it's true i'm empty for half an hour. they scream not enough cabs because they won't wait two or three minutes for a taxi. you know, adding those short term madalinas was tried before and it didn't work. you gave those guys a top number on their whatever it's called the card we got the taxi cab card and what happened - i'm talking. anyway, the number on the card we have and now they have got full-time taxis because the cab
9:49 pm
companies won't put out the shiners costs so they've become full-time taxis. and so far as the taxis i'm high on the madalinas list and i'm getting one and i'm grateful to the board for bringing the price down. i'm very, very happy to be paying less money and thank you. >> (calling names). >> san francisco taxi driver. two public safety things i want to get into and one thing out of left field. the public safety is first caltrans should be on the other side of the street 90 of the
9:50 pm
riding fairs are on the other side of the street. you have giant street you should go down there it's 0 total chaos. so if we move the cab signs on the other side of the street and stop the cabs from poovp from the other side of the street. and all you drivers inside to go to this website car stash.com. c ar s ta c h should go for if you're a list driver or whatever you can buy a pink mustache
9:51 pm
manufactureer. i'm going to buy one today, i'm going to write like scabs or go away and on my cab just bear in mind that maybe there is a time for the mta irrespective to step in and do what the airport did this is a public safety. and lastly hoover got this money the $70 million i think that's probably more than that. and the c p u has to hear this testimony and many of that money is put in there and - >> next speaker please and.
9:52 pm
>> thank the author of the - i want to thank the security guard who runs off the limousine and they're very effective. one of my colleagues and his passenger managed to steal a pink minus tush and he got in trouble with the company. but as ben pointed out two people are just flagging those cars and hoping in so anybody can get one of those pink mustaches a murderer or. there was one car paint as a gray primer. the cars are getting older and
9:53 pm
older. you think it's little kids but i take it young women who are hoping in those cars. and sidecars and lifts the attorneys say there was nothing by spin and side talk and they haven't protruded any documents. so if somebody is claiming i'm lying they need to come forward with their documents. and this lady came to the meeting with any questions and she left with so many more questions. and ride sharing you thought you were going to certain locations
9:54 pm
but really who goes to work at 2:00 a.m. in the modernizing in hookers >> (calling names). >> if you could have the overhead i want to show you may have seen that but this is the last issue of the united tax news letter with the picture of the mayor on the cover. i think he needs to be called out on this. because the mayor of this city as turned his back on - the city's own taxi industry and this regulatory agency by endorsing the operations of companies that are operating in the city unlawfully,
9:55 pm
unregulated, unlicensed. and for the mayor to do that i mean it seems disgrace full to me. those companies are providing uncontrolled competition. their numbers are growing day by day and the direction that is solution is taking of putting out more taxis to meet more of their vehicles to take back taxi share from us. i don't think that's going to work. there's a very influential article that goes back a few decades called the tragedy of the common sense where, you know, the farmers use a common area to grace their cattle and, you know, farmers this farmer puts another cow an and another
9:56 pm
9:57 pm
>> at the april 6th accounting vote of this task force the vote was to find a violation of the speaking times 5 to 4, however, one member of the task force does not show so it failed for the affirm active vote of the members of the sunshine task force. i'm moving for reconsideration and we'll keep you posted. the second raison i rise to he'd i is to get a formal answer on behavior of good government why didn't you go to get the report inside the agency.
9:58 pm
you had to spend how much money did you spend on the doctors report? and a thank you. >> (calling one more name). >> i'm 25 years of driving a cab. doesn't mean anything. i brought to our attention the charging of 5 percent even though our rule says they can only charge 3 percent. this is the law of the land of the united states of america you can't charge minimum in dollars and i can go to the credit card.com and you can fill that
9:59 pm
out for yourself. i suggest to the drivers to put a sign of credit card accepted which dollar minimum and you'll be all right. and the other things i want to talk about we talk about in the town meeting if you're going to allow the cab companies to so-called dispatch to the center app the problem is still going to be there. what you need to do is when people called red or yellow or other other companies they can see the four block radius you can see them. you can see in if the yellow cabs are available for them fine
10:00 pm
they can get the cab right now right away. then they can make their choices. and the second thing or the third thing there is no u turn for the taxi. there's a difficult situation over there on sutter street >> moniker to address that? >> i'd like to a take into account the credit cards charging 5 percent. also the california trains thing is right i've been down there are i don't know what kind of authority you'd have but the members can take a look at 0 those things. okay. the director is not going
10:01 pm
to be giving a report >> last item on the agenda seeing none. >> very quickly. i'm going to a higher authority. >> director reiskin i would appreciate a report on the muni delays. i know that some of them were caused by the wind and interesting circumstances but it certainly seems to me that the delays before the van system where the trains are coming in there's been significant details p delays.
10:02 pm
i don't know if it's something to be with the switch or something else. i asked a year and a half agree as far as i, tell the sander hose is for more a problem but i'd like to know and i know that supervisor weaning would like to know >> anyone else on new or unfinished business? >> we're going to talk about the california train corner that's my neighborhood. that would be a awesome to switch that over. in terms of the the office of california train station 3 lanes have a green turn and the

10:08 pm

10:09 pm
and so our goal was really just to enhance the store and enhance the experience, our wine bar is going to be very small, it will be totally inside, and it won't be outside, there is a patio but we are not going to use it. we are going to keep the minimal hours and probably no later than 9:00 p.m. so it is not going to be a big, loud, rucus venue. i think that i passed out some of the information we started a petition a few months ago and we had tremendous support from the neighborhood people were kind of at the snotty end, a16 and two doors down and the meat market and the coffee roasty. and it is going to be a nice neighborhood event basically, we... i have a letter that
10:10 pm
broadly explains our goal and intent and then the petition, and the diagram of the floor plan, that is what we are hoping to do. >> for those of you in the audience, there are a lot of things that effect, and why don't we hear from the policement, i understand that expecter fong and darcey keller are here. >> okay. >> thank you very much, sir. >> good morning, inspector, (inaudible) with the san francisco police department, avc, the liaison unit. >> on behalf of ferdon olive oil has filed an application with the department of beverage control speaking a type 42 on
