this meeting at all. i really feel that this is very unfair to drivers. i also feel that this board is trying to get money wherever they can find it. basically, what we have is a pattern here. this board tries to extort as much money as possible and also give less service. there has been a dramatic reduction in service since mr. ford came on board. there has also been a raising of parking fees. this resembles basically pg&e in a public body, and we have to remember, pg&e stands for predatory, greedy, and evil, so i'm categorically against the raising of these parking fees. i think lower income people will find it very inconvenient, and it is forcing people onto a public transportation system that is highly unworkable. get a good public transportation system in place first before you start jacking up the parking fees and penalizing motorists whose only crime is driving a car. director nolan: 11 and 12, can we take them together? director heinicke: i just wanted to address those, and i wanted to go through
