and we'll pay for the fee equal to 5 percent of the trips we collect the proposed agreement allows this stage service to other airport throughout the country and they'll pay a 5 percent fee in a separate transaction ar d f pays for the development of this which will think 25 percent of the 5 percent they're paying us and administrator service fee that compensates the airport in the city for use of this proprietary system we've created over the initial 2 greats term the airport spent to collect $11.6 million in trip fees we anticipate paying administrator fees $290,000 to administrator

oppose table one of page 28 the estimated amount over the two year is $1100 million plus if the other airports licenses the airport transportation will collect an estimated 3525 hundred in the initial fees we do recommend you approve this legislation. >> thank you, mr. rose colleagues if not other questions any public comment on this item? please step forward. >> thank you, supervisors mark uber with the san francisco taxi alliance i say first of all the airport decides to allow the p ncs to operate at the airport and here's a particularly

despite two years of illegal operations in which at least a million violations of the criminal law took place despite the fact that massive insurance fraud is still governor and will continue to go on with the serviced despite the fact that the approval of those services has and will have an numerously nothing else effect on the taxi drivers now it turned out through this contract 9 airport has a profit motivate in the system which it is going to market and license through the ar p f through other airport why will the airport do this and we have to say maybe because they see there is money in it et al of the problems continue to exist.

>> i also by the way the $5.8 million a year they expect to collect i can't go through the numbers it breakdown to a loss of a third of the taxi business at the airport of the t nc this is devastating we saw a 15 percent decline in december the first full most of their illegal operations taxi are being driementd they're not given the same cease the taxi have to go through the taxi consumerism process and instead of going to the terminals you know one other thing undoublg the drivers of the company are not paying the

business registration foe that's being collected of other businesses in the city thank you. >> thank you very much anyone else wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. colleagues can i have a motion. >> i'd like to make a motion through the chair to forward to the full board with a positive recommendation. >> we'll take that without objection. madam clerk item 9. >> ordinance extending the reduction off fees for the 7 percent for the effected date of the schedule and firmly the planning department determination under the environmental quality act. >> we have dbi. >> i'm with the deniable originally the legislation the first 11 percent in sexual of

2014 became effective in september and the the goal was to allow the department to have a chance to do the complete fee study and update the fee schedule for a new fee schedule the fee study has taken longer we want to extend it to have the study to update the fee schedules so we can move into the new feeds this will provide ways that will extend the ruktsz until we're able to go to a new fee schedule we'll not have to changed the forms to collect the fees and we have questioned requested it be retroactive it ended on march first and to keep it going i'm happy to answer any questions you may have. >> supervisor mar. >> that's correct supervisor

farrell why it the study taking longer expected. >> the controller's office managing the fee study we've been work closely with the consulted a couple of questions about the methodology we noticed that a couple fees were left out so i think we're close but the controller's office is going to be submitting things but it took longer than than anticipated. >> thank you supervisor tang >> thank you two questions if you agree with the budget analysts recommendations to have this end on other 31st 2015. >> we were initially requesting our staffing didn't include an end date we assume that will be gone in time but we're hoping toe levy leave it open-ended not

come back to see if we need more time we'll prefer to have it whatever the original legislation but we're on to what the committee approvals. >> i understand one of my concerns not a strange gap between the studies this is requiring through on the other hand i understand that setting a date we'll hopefully get it down if not approve another piece of legislation it with about chaotic i'll prefer defer to my colleagues and in general is there a requirement from our city when a fee studies need to be done on a yearly basis or any sort of requirement maybe to our staff over there. >> i'm not aware of any requirement i'll defer to the

controller's office. >> controller's office mitchell no requirement this is i don't expect you think that the state law tells us we can't over recover our fees we have to have a reasonable way of some regular schedule or understanding our recovering cost and it would be different for different fees 3 to 5 years is very reasonable. >> no rigid kind of schedule and when a when he thinks the last time. >> 2008 or 9 a the only reason i'm asking you understand we're in an up cycle in terms of the economy hence we need to adjust
