the hearing on the merits in the matter of paul allen taylor is important and it is important that this hearing and the arguments of the parties be given enough time for consideration in order to allow the ethics commission ample time to consider the arguments of mr. taylor in advance of the hearing and to ensure ample time for the pressing business of the closed session without limiting the length of the hearing in the taylor matter. i would like to continue this item number three to a future hearing date. i understand this may also allow a witness who the enforcement staff will be presenting to have the opportunity to present to appear in person rather than remotely with a potentially poor connection. but before i take action on continuing agenda item number three, i want to open up to public comment. any public comment in the room. as part of public comment? good morning again. my name is ellen. l. l. e. n. l e. z. who i am that candidate. ellen lee zhao for mayor in 2019. the item you just mentioned and i spoke earlier today, today i am here to ask you to end your investigation. end
