the same argument we made two weeks ago, your committee against amazon prime for the same type of abc licenseent them to make unrestricted liquor deliveries throughout the city. in affect, taking the business away from our brick and mortar stores, which make up the fabric of our neighborhoods. thankful on that occasion, the committee unanimously voted to deny that application. this license would permit cloud kitchens to deliver alcohol to every corner in san francisco from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. every day. they are backed by $150 million in venture capital funding, and supports uber clinic as a major owner and driver of this business. please deny this application. thank you. >> chairman: thank you. are there any other members of the public who would like to speak on this item? come on up. >> we had this problem before, this type of controversy, pertaining to a liquor license. and i demonstrated that i got 50% of me favors it, and the other 50% doesn't favor it. the part that doesn't favor it is if you're the contributing to out of control alcoholics, and don't know how to control the alcoholi

abc is a state body, not local. we have the alu. definitely connect with the alcohol licensing unit. you have state representatives. i am not sure who your assembly person is. they do often have relationships with the abc. it would be foolish not to reach out and ask for their assistance. you are a small business in their district trying to do the right thing. the abc toneds to turn things down -- tend to turn things down. you can find they are more reasonable and talk to decision makers on the phone. they have office numbers that humans answer. if i were you, i would reach out to them immediately. >> sandra fewer. >> she is local. this is in sacramento. scott weiner is in your district. i would call one, don't call them both. they don't like it when you confuse them. that is what they are there for and they can be helpful in these situations. we just went through an abc permit that was going to be denied after midnight in the outer sunset and be i helped the owner of the business get in touch with abc and granted them to him. it wasn't the same situation but it works and it is helpfu

license application. notices of application were mailed pursuant to abc to over 900 are departments within 500 feet of the market and no objections were received. they contacted the chair of the mission bay citizens advisory committee and there were no concerns from that application. the police organization is supportive. we hope the committee makes a positive recommendation. i would be happy to answer any questions. the applicant would like to address you briefly. >> bring the applicant on up. thank you. >> good morning. i am the co-owner and general manager of gus' market. we operated here for almost 7 months. it is a great experience. it is always nice going into a neighborhood that really appreciates the service that we are trying to provide, and having this small component to our store adds that full-service feel, and it being a community market we want to over what the community wants. it is something that is requested we want to offer it to our customers. we offer it at the harrison location in a small designated section. it is focusing on justtic items our customers request. building off that it i

more highly paid, licensed professionals who clearly control their work and control the price of that work. and then it, importantly -- looking at the points just made, it expands the abc test to cover the labor code, so that is a broader set of protections, and it expands it to the unemployment insurance code. again, making it a more stream-lined way of determination around worker classification. so under that test, i think it is clear, i would argue it is also clear previously, gig workers and labor platform workers would qualify as employees. so what do we know about the gig work force. first i think it is important to note that the share of workers engage in non-employee relationships, engaged in labor platforms is small but growing. the share of workers in non-employee worker arrangements grew about 2% from 2000 to 2016. the vast majority of those are in labor platforms, and the vast majority of those are in transportation network companies. j.p. morgan chase, a sample of their customer data from 2017, estimated a little less than 2% of families in san francisco receive income from a labor platform, and 93% of those are in transportation. that's of people who live

licenses to these gangsters, you know? mary took the story and went up to the liquor commissioner. i named the commissioner abc. i'll call him beverage control in the story. i said this is the guy that's doing it. she put it on his desk on a monday and said this runs on wednesday unless you give the ballroom a liquor license. >> wow. >> and if you give them a liquor license, we won't run it. so my story didn't run and the ballroom got a liquor license. and that was it. >> power. >> that broke the logjam. the next thing you knew reno sweeney on 13th street got one. and i didn't pay for drinks for quite a while. [ laughter ] >> at no point were you afraid when you were taking down license plates and doing this? >> they didn't see me taking down license plates. >> you are hoping. >> you realize this is being videotaped. they are watching and i'm sitting next to you. >> what i'm saying though is that once gay people started owning gay bars, then the mob wasn't involved. then the gay people weren't paying off the cops and then they didn't have reason to bust them because they weren't getting the payoffs. a snowball
