in a way where the income that a medallion holder gets will be priced into the medallion. fire, federal, police, they have all come together and look at taxi drivers to qualify to purchase a medallion. the current system where medallions were given away for free to the waiting list will continue. those who are high up will still be able to get a medallion to have been there a long time. the people for their down on the waiting list will have the option to purchase. that will build equity in something where the biggest problem i have seen in the history of the board of appeals are people who have got medallions, waiting 20 years, 15 years, age 70, 80 years old, cannot meet the driving requirements and are doing whatever they can to hold on to that valuable asset. with this pilot program, it gives the ability to have an exit strategy to those who have an medallion, people who purchase and the deleon canal built equity. they're not able to drive, it becomes disabled, they can transfer it to another qualified taxi driver. that is a sea change from what we have had up to this p

primarily, simultaneous usage of the taxicab medallion. back in 2005, there were numerous complaints from various cab drivers that executive driver -- executive taxi was operating two or more vehicles simultaneously. under the transportation code, spare vehicles can only be operated when the primary vehicle is temporarily disabled or out of service. the medallion of the primary disabled vehicle is then placed in despair vehicle and the spare vehicle is allowed to operate accordingly. upon discovering this, the officers saw mr. hollis' vehicle at the airport, determined there was a problem, checked the cashier records for actual 1022. upon seeing mr. hollis' spare taxicab vehicle, discovered that mr. hollis was carrying a fake medallion. mr. hollis was admonish and cited for the conduct. however, the conduct continued and that is part of the problem. in 2005, it was determined 44 days out of the year there was simultaneous usage. 2006, 13 days, to dozens 733 days, two dozen a, 44 days of simultaneous usage. -- 2008, 44 days of simultaneous

that is one reason i do not oppose the deleon sales -- medallion sales. it seems the only one year ago the taxi regulations consisted of 255 x 8 -- 25 5 by 8 pages, but it is now 28 pages long. most for the first violation, but the third is $250. anyways, they go on. already these fines are being closed on companies for not taking cars in for recall fast enough. the problem is that these are being posed without warning. a $75 fine of a taxi driver, a beginning texas driver, that is all 10 hours of work. the question i have, will you give us a warning before you start imposing penalties for violations and extensive regulations? there are many regulations that deal with filling out bills, if they are there. having the right address for the fair and where we are going, especially paratransit, we get that wrong, finding a transit -- finding an address in san francisco is not always easy. there are innumerable ways. the problem that i have is the concept of -- sorry, fines as a way to balance the budget. fundamentally wrong. it is expecting people to violate t
