rd to doing that. >> thank you very much. are there any other speakers on this item? >> public speaker: my name is wendy and i'm a member of the public. i just wanted to say that i came up with some suggestions that if you could possibly implement quickly. for example, the sf mpa has a muni accessibility advisory committee. meets monthly. it would be nice if this was a stipend position. d also like the city to consider that any commission that is held should have some of us on
3:31 pm
their commission also again with a stipend. some outside contractors, the para transit coordinating council, they meet every other month or six weeks. 6 weeks. people are disabled and use the para transit and again, a stipend position. some of us have to cobble together various pieces in order to try to survive in san francisco. it gets harder and harder for us to survive. thank you.

3:34 pm
others from the great recommendations from wendy on the stipends and commission and internship programs that i know we talked about in previous hearings that are a pathway to hiring to the entry level position expanding that to other ways that we are looking at rule 115 as only one role of the range of opportunities for people. i think it's an example of how much value the resources from the community there is in our city and what great department staff and departments that we have. so with everyone working together with a more permanent task force, i think we can accomplish a great deal more for this city. it was wonderful that for mr. rog an from the state council that we don't operate in a vacuole and we
