one thing i'm wondering about with this contractor with the west portal project. this was a no-bid contract. where there any competing bids for this project? that's a question i have. also, the contractor was not thoroughly vetted and this board and executive director bear responsibility for that. and the consequence was a tragic fatality. also when i'm wondering about the bus service, it's been horrid. people have had to wait a long period of time for the busses. now, in your planning, could you have allocated more busses? to compensate for the project at the west portal station and keep them because these are needed. we lack the resources. the taraval is an example, same rotten service as before. now also, what i don't like is the insensitivity of the community and its concerns. there have been so many protests, so many concerns and this board does not listen. it simply goes ahead with business as usual. with dog and pony shows and rubber stamping of the board. and i assume the decisions have even been made before this meeting. you have got to be more sensitive
