this is richard rossman again. i wish you'd have a hearing on why muni staff has a veto power over safety improvements that the neighborhood would like to have. i think that $225 fee to appeal a decision of traffic engineers are a little too high. maybe instead of appealing to the board, decisions should go to the m.t.a. board before it comes to the supervisors and not let one person have a say over safety improvements that the neighborhood wants. thank you. >> president yee: okay. any other public comments? >> clerk: that is it for public comments. >> president yee: okay. public comment is now closed. in terms of what jodi mentioned in the letter that she sent, i'd like to have a discussion between sfmta and maybe the police department on that issue of who should be -- how can we do things differently, in terms of enforcement, should be on our agenda also. okay. so is there anything further? madam clerk? >> clerk: next item is item 8, public comment. >> supervisor peskin: no, we had that. >> president yee: just ha

. >> hello, my name is richard rossman and i live in the outer richmond off full ton street and i saw on our next neighbor a lady with her baby almost got hit by a car. it's the international speed way and with more cars driving there needs to be immediate plans to slow cars down. i know sarah jones' group is coming up with a plan but that is taken so long. we need to maybe under the declare emergency we can reduce the traffic to 25 miles per hour or put something or speed bumps. you need to slow the traffic down. a couple of years ago, i asked the staff to put up those orange construction signs that says slow down or construction ahead or lane closed. and they wouldn't do it and the reason why they said, oh, we don't have the money. if i was that person's boss he would be looking for another job. there's been other accidents on fulton street. it took 10 years to fix one accident and it needs to be done right away while cars are coming on the street. the police won't give tickets anymore. >> my name is herbert winier and i want to raise concerns about the nine san bruno. about a week

my name is richard rossman, retiree, and i'm calling about the smile program, and i want to thank delta dental for the check they sent me for the confusion, and the letter. and also, i read in the director's report that the smile program is part of the $1250, although the smile program is supposed to be for prechbs tiff cleaning, so i'm not sure why it's outside. but i'll accept that, and on page -- my page numbers 28, where it says delta dental of california retirees p.p.o. elements, and it says annual maximum, $1250 per person, excluding annual cleaning and exams, i think to make it more clear, delta dental should put a statement saying or a line saying that this -- the smile program is not part of the preventative cleaning and exams and it's part of the 1250. i think that would go a long ways to ending the confusion. and then, the other thing is, on the flier they exhibsent ou where it says boost your benefits, they mentioned standard coverage, but most employees are on the p.p.o., so they should put out another flier comparing the p.p.o. benefits to the smile coverage, and i think t

my name is richard rossman, and about the transportation, when i had a family members discharged from a kaiser facility, we got the exact opposite information, saying that the gurney and wheelchair would be free, but if they can walk, kaiser wouldn't pay for it, so i don't -- this was in february. second, since kaiser's saving money on not building a new building in oakland, and they give money to the warriors and the san jose sharks, maybe they should use that money to build another post acute -- a post care facility so kaiser can be in charge of the patients post recovery, which i think they should be from the time of the surgery until the time they go home and not pass the buck to third parties. and lastly -- oh, the other thing is that i found out kaiser has an ombudsman. i never knew about that. i found out about that almost accidentally, and this notice should be placed in the hospital rooms and sent to our members, and this ombudsman has been helping me in my ongoing saga with kaiser. and i find the person very neutral, and i don't know why kaiser doesn't advertise this service
