and i think as commissioner kim has recommended, to have very clear implementation plans presented here, and keeping us as commissioners in the loop and the ta as well, is something that the mta is committed to, and i think that sean kennedy's work is a great example and the 5 h limited but there are other examples of the vulnerable populations that were committed to do and increasing it and the better system of functioning of the transit system in the city. and i did want to also say that i think that my expectation as a chair of the committee is that we would have regular if possible, monthly written updates and a occasional presentations that really keep us, the transportation authority, commissioners in the loop on the key projects of the tep and as i mentioned earlier, the implementation plans that are clearer and possible to delivered to be our office and to maintain that level of out reach that has been talked about in this meeting and, some have suggested in the previous meetings, continuing the effort that the mta and the others have done with the bilingual out reach to the immigrant speaking

us. as commissioner vietor said those projects were not concluded in the we're accept. and funding is not secured. well, you adapt our two year budget you don't have the fund for the c i p going out 10 years so water and power rates have not been raised to cover the projected costs. we are looking at the c i p proposal so we're going to continue our review we'll have more questions as we continue that. and how those questions are resolved some of the funding and who paid. might not effect the sub total of the overall cost of the total and how it impacts the rates for us. so i intend to work with our staff and have been talking with mr. rick i didn't and b will get you further comments >> thank you for being here north america coal. >> doctor jackson. good afternoon >> sorry that i'm late i was at another meeting and when i heard you talking about solar my case you wasn't talking about solar i want to say i've been chosen as your representative which they've taken pictures of me to put on hangers to talk about and to call about solar because, you know, that's my baby. so

try to carry the legislation or do something about it and i think that it is important for us as commissioners to do some homework on this with the pros and cons of late night transit with regard to the industry that we regulate. >> thank you. >> i am done. >> great, any other future agenda items? >> you know, ways thinking about the plastic water bottle and no more water bottles and i was just wondering if there was some way that we could get, an idea of how to be a more green industry. i just recently, you know, took an environmental geology course. it has me freaked out. you know, there is just so much plastic in the world and there is so little water left for us to drink and if we could be a more responsible and we could help that i would appreciate that. >> so the big, some of the big festivals are working on that. and since, the plastic water bottle ban is probably not workable. >> for some of the really larger ones? and they are working on seeking combustible items like water bottle and so on and so forth and it is a work in progress. >> when they are finished, do you think that we coul

commissioner engagement through it. that's the trick. as our city attorney would tell us, we can't get in the serial meetings, but there is a certain art and we start learning how they set it up with juvenile probation. i think one of the quick easy ideas was search team can just have individual conversations in a silo with each commissioner and incorporate that into the conversation because they're not sharing, hey, your colleague said this and your colleague said that, so, we're good, right? deputy city attorney owen? >> that is part you have to be very careful about is not accidentally indicating what a colleague had suggested. >> got it. >> there is also the logistical part about how many interviews you want to do at a march 25th meeting even if they were a half hour apiece. you would soon end up with multiple-hour meeting. >> we're going to lose commissioner wald. >> i had the same questions for everyone. i just want to say as someone who participated in the last search that i really appreciate the attention that you have given -- all of you have given so far to enga

received an inquiry from the search firm who indicated they made the time to talk to us individually as commissioners, as well as to review this conversation here to take anything and everything that we put out there that we want to see in the process. the application period is expected to be open from the first week of february through the end of february about a four-month period -- >> sorry, four week. i was on a roll, too. >> four week period, and then the goal would be during that subsequent period afterward to go through the process of culling down the process as an iterative process with the search committee and the commission. the idea of the search committee in the past has now been around the idea of two commissioners and the deputy director, the search committee has come together to this point, also has two advisory members in this. and this is a result of these conversations not only commissioner wan and myself and deputy director osman, but two really, i think, individuals that have a lot of insight into the department, into this type of process. and i think they are folks that we really

commissioner moore. >> i like to say i would have hoped that the rules as their september to us today and if they indeed annoyance the different commissioners comments for the sake of this discussion would have been identified. it's unclear what the basis is for the rules. i've not received any comments from my fellow commissioners that recycle 0 r talk about the procedural issues with the underlying submissions. i've not gotten a single comment or if their rejected by whom. since i've start to talking about the lack of clarity not specific targeted issues for anyone or the department or anyone in the department almost seven years ago i didn't know the drawings were submitted. i've said it over and over again when are we going to get more cliefrt because drawings submittals that are unclear and circle and often result in having to send cases basing back because we do understand them made me think we need to intensity some clear applications to submit those in a consistent way. as the 7 year sitting here do we have for the first time from the secretary see that that we indeed have a say open appendix a.

i have used my role as a commissioner here to look at and look out for the entire city in terms of transportation, that is the charge. and the same time being mindful of neighborhoods and groups and individuals, and circumstances that are around the city, i can assure you that it is an extremely difficult job and for us it is going to be getting much more difficult in the coming year because the transit effectiveness project will be coming out and that does involve some or one of the speakers mentioned removing some bus stops and changes. and so there is going to be a lot of opposition to it and it is going to be tough, but ours again and we have it look out for the whole city and the case is made well for the involvement of the small business community and the work of mt a and i would like to make a suggestion that your commission, came up with 12 different suggestions and we have several as well. and i think that it would be very unwhiledy to try to deal with tonight and i would suggest that we consider asking our staffs to work together on some of the most sale ent recommendations and to come
