and by the end of the 2013 second quarter, there were 236 pending cases from 2013, 61 from 2012 and two in 2011. and by the end of the second quarter, case filedings had declined by 12 percent from the 2012 second quarter. so complaints against the police officers, were down 12 percent. compared to the previous years in the end of second quarter and the occ staff had some vacantcy and we are now in the process of working so that they can see and so there was a 14 percent decrease in the available investigators at the end of the second quarter, 2013 compared to the second quarter 2012, it did result in a higher caseload for the investigators and 21 verses 19 last year. and the average number of days to close the cases did increase, 6 percent from 161 days to 172 days, but, our goal is to conclude our investigations within 270 days, and so we were well within that goal for a very large percentage of our cases. and during the second quarter of 2013, the investigators close 176 cases with 79 percent of them closing within 270 days. and only 3 took more than a year to close. but, they were n

there is a bill pending now regarding distilled factories having limit tasting at their premises. it's approving but -- moving but not so fast from manufacturing interest. if you have questions, we would like to hear it. we would like to hear what kind of scenario you might have here and specifically something that wouldn't involve legislation, per say. >> the first part of my question is to thank you to abc. last year the california music association brought forward the issue of the abc putting 50 percent food, 50 percent liquor conditions on type 47 licenses. that has stopped and we all thank you for that. the problem we are now facing is a democracy of one. under the a bc rules and regulation and law, one person can effectively shut down an entire business. we are seeing that occur in san francisco especially as new people move in with a new set of expectations, different values and different backgrounds and suddenly they are confronted with a city experience and that one person can shut down a business. how do we address that so that we have more of a democratic process when i

there is a bill pending right now that would put the abc correctly in the crossroads if you will of the effort calling on us to become the regulators of medicinal marijuana dispensaries. i can't and won't answer any opinions about that because we haven't been told how we feel about it yet. we are working very closely with the legislative leaders on it and the governor's office and the bill's sponsors and some of the stake holders to have ourselves prepared in case -- we maybe as soon as january 2014 have that task within our mission as a regulatory agency that's been doing something somewhat similar for over 60 years. we do feel confident that we will be able to get the job done as it's given to us, but it in a very early state of that and we are still working through to be prepared. one thing we will for sure and definitely want to make sure we get communicated to you folks today is that it will not impact our ability to serve you in the abc licensing or oversight role that we have. we are the alcohol and beverage control and we are funding through the abc special fund through your app
