Tenderloin has foot patrol north of market. So this is a big commitment thats met and i think it will have an impact. Its actually something asked for, i think, before this Navigation Center was there or will be there. Great. Any other questions from any of the supervisors . Seeing none, i think its now giving an opportunity for those that are in opposition to please come forward. You have two minutes. So this is an opposition to the appeal or support of the project. Come on up. Im going to ask the appellants if any have. Homeless for a considerable amount of time to raise your hand. You have to consider passing this bill. Its very important to the 200 people out there. I commend supervisor pe secondsr standing up and i want to ask each of you to stand up to get buildings in your district. So what im hearing tonight in the previous testimony has met a lot of antimayor. Is this an antimayor campaign or what it is about, Property Values . So i would have a suspect of motives here tonight. They talked about traffic. There was no opposition to the chase center down the street. There was to opposition to at t down the street and no opposition to ucsf down street. Homeless, we dont drive cars, so were not going to be an impact. And earlier someone said, i heard a joke, steelhead fish . Really . Homeless are being blamed for the fish in the oh ocean . Thats a new one. We talked about alcohol and drugs, where theres 26 alcohol licenses within walking distance of this center. I dont think thats an issue. Im a citizen board member at the local homes coordination and we oversee the department of hsh. We unanimously supported this issue for the center and the last thing i want to say hear, people were talking about citizens and homelessness, those are the same thing. Once you are on our streets for 24 hours, you are a citizen of sanfrancisco. Thank you, next speaker, please. Good evening, board of supervisors. Im john ortanny, the director of interim housing shelters at the centers of San Francisco. The Community Services partnered with the city to open up the first Navigation Center located at 1950 Mission Street in march of 2015. Ecs manager manages central andy opened up 125 bayshore. Ecs manages the next door and sanctuary shelters for a total of 534 single adult shelter beds. 13 Supportive Housing sites, ecs is the lead agency for the single adult coordinated entry system and we manage a Senior Center and healthy agent planning across all of our programming and Workforce Development and programming. Benefits of Navigation Centers, they are an important component of San Franciscos homeless response system. These centers take people off the street giving them needed respite. Many street homeless will not enter additional city shelters for many reasons. Navigation shelters offer 24hour staf staffing with no curfews, and minimum rules and high operations staff to client ratio and room for pets and partners to stay together. Its space to accept all belongs, outdoor space. Since they are a much smaller Living Environment than the legacy single adult shel shelte, people find this easy to adapt. Next speaker, please. Im the associate director of bryant and Central Waterfront center. Im the both the services at these sites. The Navigation CenterServices Include onCase Management for all guest,e, on site medical clinic, access to treatment, Housing Navigation for those that have the highest needs as assessed by the coordinated entry team and Supportive Housing, problemsolving for those not prioritized for housing, legacy shelters. Some of the Navigation Center benefits include decrease in incantments. Theres close communication and relationship between the city and providers such as ecs with surrounding neighborhoods, protocols and procedures regarding how navigation leadership deals with complaint, addressing the impact that the center has is having on the surrounding community. They have a higher staff ratios. Case management will work wit person to get them ready for housing or if not prioritized for housing, work with the problemsolvers to end that persons homelessness. Navigation centers provide the left of Case Management required to get people off the streets. Thank you. Next speaker. My name is kathy and im the director of programmes for episcopal Community Services. Ecs is a Strong Partner in support of housing as we Work Together to plan and implement innovative programmes to address homelessness. As recently as july of 2018, we were chosen as the lead Service Provider for the citys single adult coordinated entry system. Our teams of problem solvers, navigators assessed nearly 5,000 single adults across access points, navigation centres on the streets, in the emergency room, at the centers. The importance of the use of assessments in the one system is that we now have a deeper understanding of the people were serving. Navigation centers are one piece to ending homelessness in San Francisco and nav centers are Triage Centers where we determine individual roadmaps out of homelessness which is different, be it housing or problemsolving. We provide services, treatment for Substance Abuse and benefits enrollment. Ill end with a tor story as ret as yesterday. My director of coordinated entry left me a message. He said, kathy, its working. I share with you, within a fourhour period, there was a man on streets, on Mission Street, that was wrapped in a blanket, that had limited engagement, that we mobilized our mobile team to go out and they went out with their lap tops and assessed him and right then and there realize edhe reae scored for housing thank you for your comments. Next speaker, please. My name is cal con conroy. Im here to speak about building more centers in San Francisco. Ive had the privilege of being able to visit the Navigation Center and taken on a tour. I feel a lot of people have never been inside one. They are at least the one in the dog patch is amazingly clean. All residents there were very happy. They seemed to be extatic they were not on the trees an street. We should be building more massivNavigation Centers in San Francisco. Next speaker. My name is danny drysdale, the Community Liaison at music city cf, where a hostile and ongoing construction project to provide resources for working musicians. As City Resident and landlords, we fully support the proposed Navigation Center at the lot discussed today and urge the board to move forward in establishing a Navigation Center at that location. Puover 1600 different people coe through the door and many of whom are low income or currently Homeless Individuals due to purposefully low prices and, in fact, our hostile has been the first step in achieving a place to live for many formerly Homeless Individuals. So we would like the city to do much more in supporting them and helping them to get off the streets. It would be disheartening to see the city above towards abandoning this site with potential as the one now. Iwe welcome the nav center in or own neighborhood soon as theres a house of fans location discussed. So were fully supportive and happy to have one to our location soon. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon, evening, supervisors. Im corey smith and certainly as the deputy terro director as. Both organizations are in firm support of the proposal to reject the appeal here today on the simple facts this is not a single issue, that this is not a quality issue and that in and of itself should be enough to reject the appeal. The rest of my comments ill be making as an individual. Ive been to enough of the meetings, thank you to everybody that is over there, work on this and spending the time, as well as supervisor hainey and trying to do what you can to have all of the conversations with everybody. I know thats not easy. I know you take the full brunt of all of the crap thrown at you and its difficult but i appreciate it and its difficult to do. I was at the Commission Hearing and there were 88 people that spoke in support and 39 people that spoke against it, almost 21 support for this proposal because we fo know that people d places to live. We need option and solutions around the city. Ive spoken with my supervisor, supervisor brown. We need one. We have people sleeping on the street every single night. And anything we can do to save one life at a time is worth it and its why all of you do public service. Its why youre on the side of it. So its not forgotten and all of those people dont show up and give you the thanks and kudos that you deserve, but it is absolutely deserved. Lastly, i have to believe we have better ways of doing this and figuring out how to provide homes, especially for the most vulnerable neighbors than having people come out on a tuesday afternoon, at this point quarter to 6. Theres a lot of issue that are facing the city and just want to be speaking about that. Next speaker. My name is Brian Edwards if district five. One of the things i learn today is that this isnt a sequa issue. But what this is is a San Francisco issue. Another thing i learned today is that the San Francisco version of, im not racist, but is the claim that you care about Homeless People right before you make some bullshit augments to o keep a Navigation Center being built. The gentleman before me talking about a 21 support ratio. I was at the first one where there were five that spoke in favour of this Navigation Center and everyone else was against it and not a Single Person could tell a story about a neighborhood homeless person who they knew, who they related to, who they spoke to on a regular basis and that is not San Francisco. I dont know how you do it out there. I know in district 5, we know our homeless neighbors, we talk to them and feed them and Call Emergency Services if they need help. Thats San Francisco. This is not a sequ issue and we need to build this. Next speaker. Good afternoon, supervisor. My name is robert fucman. Homelessness is a crisis in that neighborhood as its is in mine and in a Navigation Center will address that issue. It i shoulthere are many expenso buildings with double paned windows around that proposed Navigation Center so i do not share concerns. Much more noise and pollution comes from the multiple i80 ramps nearby. Ive seen and heard them and i eagerly have a concerted effort to oakland and east bay. All of the data about Navigation Centers shows they are good for the city but ive been to several meetings at the delancey about this project. So many neighbors refuse to believe this. A resident at the dog patch Navigation Center is a success and a few months ago, a Neighborhood Association even voted to support an extensionful their Navigation Center nearby. If anything, the fact that its taken months to approve this is a sign that the current process is not working. Why should we have months of meetings to approve something that we know is both necessary and morally correct . Should we repeat this arduos process . Is this good for people to leave work and say, it must be painfully obvious . Because it is painful to watch here o and on the sidewalks. Good afternoon. I used to live off of second and king street. Im a support of the navigation safe center. What about ballgames . They all cause traffic. Im in support of the Navigation Center. Its funny how peoples values change when it comes to your property value. I thought the pil bible says toe your neighbor. We need to support people in need. Everybody is working about parking, 911 calls and crimes but nobody sounds concerned about all of the People Living in unsafe on the streets. It is a center to help people in need, a Navigation Center and we need people. Its Homeless People, people need help. So i sport. Thank you. I support it. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker. I live in district 6. I live more or less around the corner from the Episcopal Center and i have lived there since 1996 and i come home late and guess what . Im female and im not terrified of poor people. Im not terrified of my neighbors. Were talking that this happens to be George Orwells 600t 600th birthday. I think some of you read books and it might help to think about treating people decently in shelters as well as providing shelters rather than sticking people outside. Not to be scared neighbors, but to be scared for neighbors is a pretty good thing, who are, incidentally, hardworking taxpaying citizens. Ive always been worried going by episcopal sanctuary that there were ambulances. The answer is oh, not get this thing out of my neighborhood but help people to be in better shape. Dont take their property, dont take tents, dont deny them sleep, dont deny them peace of mind or a right to own property or dont deny them hope. And, basically, i am uncomfortable supporting a Navigation Center where people are going to be mistreated if the citys record holds true, but this is a minimum. Anyone who genuinely believes that they want folks to be treated decently doesnt say get if center out of my neighborhood but say make this center in my neighborhood and make it well explained, provide people with due process and also im just astonished the director of Homeless Services says safe and clean free without seeing a contradiction. We need to meet people where they are and not hurt them. Thank you. Next speaker. Im kelly with the coalition on homelessness. I dont know about you, but im so tired of this going to endless meetings. Its just ridiculous. Because you know what, we need to be providing shelter and housing for people that are often forced to sleep on our streets. Im offended by the bad data and trolling on social media and wasting everyones time and so many people that are working so hard to be helping folks who are living on our streets. And who are dying on our streets. And im glad that were not having port meetings any more because net were horrible and all of thawful and i walked oute it was grow gross and things tht were being said were gross. But so often, the humanity of people has been lost in the discussions. And thats what we have to get back to. We needed to be doing we all need to be doing what we can to be helping our fellow San Francisco neighbors and not demonizing folks like that. Thats it. Hello. As many times have been brought up tonight, there is issue with a Navigation Center on final and bryant. Fifth and bryant. I live across the street and it is a fabulouslyrun establishment. And they are quiet neighbor, and most of my friends that come by think its a storage facility. That is how quiet it is and wellmaintained it is. My issue here isnt the fact that we should im not trying to argue for this explicit Navigation Center. Im frustrated because weve made this discussio decision may times. The mayor has made this decision. The Port Commission has made this decision and how many times are we going to come up here and argue with shelter . How many times are we going to deliberate . Will we have to do this for the next 2,000 shelter beds across the city . Look at all of th all of thee spending on the issue. I know you guys are debating expediting bills right now and they dont address the specific issue, but we need to approach those issues. We need to take hold of the issue that we give voice to a dozen people to splock a whole project. We have people sleeping on the street and were more concerned about people walking dogs. Three, please support this Navigation Center. I live in the tenderloin of constituent 6. Everyday, when i walk home in the evening, i see my own neighbors and i want to remind you that is the terminology we should be using. These people are our neighbors and they are your constituents and many are supervisor haineys constituents. They deserve to be taken care of and as long we have a shortage, no neighborhood should get to say no to building more of them, especially one that is a mile away from any existing shelter, particularly one in the same district. Like a lot of the previous speakers, im tired of having this discussion, of the endless meetings. If you are tired of this continuing to come back, i urge you to support changes that would streamline this process and take it away all together. You pass resolutions in supporter opposition and theres one on your agenda right now, in fact. I urge to pass senate bill 48 which stalled for this year and take navigation centres out entirely and we would not be here and i would be at home cooking dinner right now. Thank you. Go ahead. Good evening, soup stores su. Im a resident in district 6 and i live about a block away from the projects. Im firmly in support of the Navigation Center and oppose this. The process doesnt have to be this way. This project is fortunate enough to have a categorical exemption under se albuquerququa. It could have a sta statutory exemption. This would enable projects to be proposed with more confidence and avoid watering down, such as what occurd with this project. Supervisor hainey, i appreciate your engagement on twitter. But its unchair why you believe projects like this should be subject to a process to preclude the exemption from applying. You state that as a policy decision, but you have not clearly stated what policy you are pursuing. I remind the supervisor that people cannot live in percentage or policy. You are in a position to change the process right now. And thus far, have refewed t reo so. You can change the process and you can reduce or eliminate meetings like this and put projects like this on a firmer Legal Foundation and get more people housed without compromising like i have here and all it takes is to support the charter amendment. Thank you. Hi, im laura foot and obviously in strong support of the homeless Navigation Center but i want to take a minute to think about what is nimbyism. The people who wome came out toy have repeatedly have said, theyre not nimby but nimbyism is a thing triggered. They call come up over and over again and say i support Homeless Housing in general, just not here. I have an elaborate reason why it shouldnt be here. No matter where you propose something, you will hear that same answer. Our neighborhood is special. I dont know a person who has come across a neighborhood that is not special. Our neighborhood has families, as do many neighborhoods. Our neighborhood has old people. I hope every neighbor has old people. This is what integration looks like, is bringing different kinds of people to live together. please stand by . President yee you may start. Thank you. Numb number one, i have three points. Miss gibson mentioned this project may be a nuisance. Being a nuisance is not a definition of being a Good Neighbor, its being a bad neighbor. If the city is not being a Good Neighbor in this instance, the project should be rejected. Number two, the port director, in response to a question from supervisor haney, said that there were hundreds of interim leases that had not gone to the state Lands Commission, if i heard correctly. My strong suspicion is that those were public trust leases rather than nonpublic trust leases which is what were talking about here. In any event, i would request those leases be put in the record in this matter. But let me just read the statute that the port drafted, ab 2797, section 7e. A nontrust lease, a lease is by definition a nontrust use, shall be subject to approval by the commission its the state Lands Commission as provided in paragraph sounds like theres some objections. I did not hear any remaining valid argument that had to do with ceqa, so in terms of that, i dont think there is a ceqa argument here. I do want to respond to some of the things that were said and talk about how we move forward. You know, i spent, you know, i think a lot of my first couple months in office talking to people about this issue. Dozens of meetings down at the waterfront, talking to hundreds of neighbors, including people who were housed and unhoused, people who were in navigation. I visited all the Navigation Centers that currently exist in our city, and i think i came out of that process believing very strongly that we need Navigation Centers. They are not the entire solutientire entire solution, they are not going to solve the crisis by themselves, but without Navigation Centers, people are forced to create their own we have seen a positive impact on the broader community, so i hope we can move forward and see this work. I understand there are people that may have been concerned about the process, and i respect that. But i hope that moving forward, we can come together and make this work for this community. I will do all that i can to make sure that we fulfill our commitments, that the departments fulfill their commitments, that we Work Together, that we listen, that we hold ourselves accountable. This may not have been a perfect process, but we should learn as we move forward because this will not be the last Navigation Center that we build. In fact im hoping that we have one in every supervisor district. But this Navigation Center will move forward. It will have the continued support of my office and the city. I hope that even folked who were opposed will work with us and make this a success because nobody wants to see what we have on our streets right now, nobody wants to see people without housing, without shelter, dieing, and the Navigation Center is an important tool to get us there. So with, that i want to move president yee excuse me. Supervisor haney, before you make a motion, i want to excuse supervisor peskin because he had to leave. Supervisor mandelman so moved. President yee its moved by supervisor mandelman, seconded by supervisor fewer, and i excuse supervisor peskin. Supervisor haney i move to affirm the categorical exemption determination. President yee so you move to approve 46 and to table items 47 and 48. Second. President yee and its been seconded. Roll call, please. Clerk on the motion to approve 46 and table items 47 and 48 [roll call] clerk there are nine ayes. President yee okay. Colleagues, the determination of the exemption is finally affirmed. [gavel]. President yee madam clerk, i dont know if the department of election is back yet. Clerk they have returned, mr. President. President yee where are you . Clerk yes, yes. President yee okay. Then lets go back to items 49 no, to 50, actually. Colleagues, i believe we have the ballot Election Summary Report form from the department of elections for the north of Market Tenderloin Community benefits district. Madam clerk, please announce the results. Clerk the returned weighted ballots voting for the north of Tenderloin Community benefit district was 83. 44 , and the returned weighted ballots voting against the north of Tenderloin Community benefit district was 16. 66 , further indicating there was no majority protest. President yee okay. So theres no majority protest. Colleagues, without objection, can we take a vote on item 50, the resolution to establish, renew, and expand the north of Tenderloin Community benefit district . Madam clerk, please call the roll. Clerk on item 50 [roll call] president yee okay. I might have to rescind the vote when supervisor haney comes back in. Clerk okay. Well just proceed. [roll call] clerk there are eight ayes. President yee okay. So with that, then, it passes. [gavel]. President yee i guess the next item is just to go straight into general Public Comments. Madam clerk . Clerk all right. At this time, the public can address the entire board of supervisors for up to two minutes, including the may 21, board of supervisors minutes, and on item 62, the adoption without Reference Committee calendar. Public item will not be allowed if an item has already had its Public Comment. Please direct your comments to the board as a whole and not to individual supervisors, and not to the audience. If using interpretation assistance, youll be allocated twice the amount of time to testify, and if youd like to display a document on law is followed, that when people come here to make Public Comment, that theyre not given difficulties in making those Public Comments. The second thing, which is what the hearing is today is since this is constitutionally protected politically free peac speech, protected by the brown act and sunshine ordinance, violation by putting summaries in the minutes which are not accurate is a violation of not just a violation of the brown act, but the sunshine ordinance and First Amendment rights. The clerk does not follow the law as the ordinance relates. The law says the clerk of the minutes will include the name of the person speaking, what they spoke about, and what their position was. The only thing the clerk of the board does is put in the persons name and the subject. So she does not follow it in regard to any citizen of San Francisco. And as ive said to you before, im the only citizen in San Francisco who actually gets his Public Comment president yee thank you. Next speaker, please. Im going to further finetune my already demonstrated well over several times demonstration on how to take care of this homeless problem. As i said before, im quick to react to contradictions. I find it odd that you could say its not going to solve the homeless problem. Thats why this controversy is taking place. If its not going to solve the homeless problem, what the hell are you doing it for . My proposition of putting up the two towers that would solve the homeless problem is a demonstration of your total incompetency and how you should be dealing with the problem. Sfgov viewer. Year after year after year, you keep doing the same stupidity, unprofessionalism, administration after administration after administration. You claim you want to help the people that have mental disabilities, but you dont even have a place to put them. But your departments come asking for millions to treat the people, but yet you dont know where the people you want to treat are located. Make no mistake, you had an 88. 2 million negative cash flow deficit in the last several months of ed lees life. You got that . And you had that same deficit that you took over after you died. You got that . People got nowhere to go on the street. You got that . You got 80 youve got 12. 2 billion because of donald j. Trump. You got that . You got that because of the tax cuts and the tax cuts of his regulations pertaining to taxes. And for you to have that much money and not have permanent housing to benefit everybody is an insult on everybodys intelligence. President yee thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. My name is matthew sutter, and im a taxi driver in San Francisco. I want to bring to your attention that San Francisco credit union are now denying our loans. We ask who do we have to pay . Theyre not interested. They are forcing our hands, and we ask you guys to hear us, to listen to us because you guys are our voice. I signed a contract stating that if the Medallion Program fails, the city shall issue me an untransferrable medallion. Ive driven these streets for 27 years. Ive picked up your kids. Ive probably picked you up once or twice, and ive picked people up off the ground, too. This is a disgrace. The sfmta and credit union are now driving owners into a state of depression. Its happening in new york, its going to happen here, and its going to be on your hands. We need you to step in and put a stop to it right now. We paid the back on time every time, and now, they dont want to renew our loans. What are we to do with that . This is the same thing that the bank has done in the past, issuing loans to people to buy homes that they did not qualify, and then, they foreclosed, lost everything, and what happened . The government bailed them out. When is it going to stop, you guys . When are you going to standup for people . When did San Francisco start losing compassion for people and families . You are the ones that need to step up. Thank you. President yee thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. Thank you for all honorable supervisors. The other day, we had seen a little light thrown in our dark rooms for years and years. Thank you for that. I appreciate you for working hard and getting us out of that rut. Got bless you for that, and we have that feeling that you guys are really working hard for us, and just thanks for you, and i hope well get out of that soon because you really are working hard, so thank you so much and god bless you for that. President yee thank you. Next speaker. Hello, everybody. My name is ali tunney. 30 years driver. Just coming here to remind you again as my coworker, he said everything i had to say. I hope you guys have open ear. Sometimes i wonder how many times we come in here and tell you situation of whats going on for us. This is the people, after 30 years, and another guys, more than 30 years, we purchase the medallion. I dont call them purchase, i call them forcing us. And please, you guys have to have attention. This is not just continue as long as i know, eight years, seven years from the beginning, ive been here, and im trying to tell you guys whats going on. This is this is not to continue anymore. You guys have to force the m. T. A. To do something. They have patience, they have patience, they not worried about them. They said to me, we dont want to be cab company, but this means who you are . What is your job . What you are doing . They are failing. They are not doing their right job. If you want to helping us, you know that, there has been so much money for other reason, reform the taxi industry. Tell them to reform some people professional, being from outside. They cannot do it. Thank you very much. Please, we need your help. It is a time for action. President yee next speaker. Good afternoon. Im speaking on behalf of several taxi medallion holders. We vigorously oppose ride share actions. Sfmta are keeping us as slaves to benefiting themselves and increasing their pays. We are fed up with this system. Although we had been coming here more than a year but did not get rid of medallions. Medallions are worthless. Medallions owners are miserable. Someone needs to refund money to us. Sfmta never listened to us. Sfmta made uber, lyft very rich. Our airport business is unsustainable as long as ride share exists at airport. We cannot we lie on this business. We cannot deal with this catastrophic business. It has been destroyed. It is devastating to our taxi business. We know all city supervisors are good peoples. Respective supervisors, please buy back our medallions, and payoff our outstanding loans to the banks. Thank you. President yee thank you. Next speaker. Hi. My name is harjit corcorea. I am he driving taxi drivers almost i am driving taxi, drive almost for 26 years. San francisco is beautiful city and very nice people here, and everybody in the world, they love San Francisco, they love california. Everybody love u. S. A. , and when we know if somebody like now, the meaning of u. S. A. , go other countries and look them. Everybody like to come here in the united states, and im not able to drive taxi anymore. And also, sfmta, they make a promise to us. If we are not able to work anymore, we can bring the medallions back to them. They can give our money back, and we can get a regular life. I dont think so. Sfmta is forcing us to be homeless. My guess is well be homeless one day in San Francisco. I love the homeless, i love San Francisco, and i was here when i came here new. And i said thank you for San Franciscos supervisor, and all this, and thank you very much. Thats it. President yee thank you very much. Next speaker. And jesus said that if i with the finger of got cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of god is come upon you. Something happened in the kingdom of god, 8,497 days ago, i am certain of that. I am certain the time of the end of the last days began then. Now in the old testament, when you got a revelation once in a while, youd get a promotion. Joseph interpreted pharaohs dream, and he got a promotion. Paul got caught up into the third heaven and heard words unspeakable, it was unlawful, and he got beatened with rods, stones, almost killed, and then beheaded. But things are different in the new testament. Im telling you something, okay . We are now in year 2,544 from when the temple was destroyed. It was destroyed in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, and it was destroyed the second time, it was destroyed on the same exact day unless you dont count that sabbath day in the 70th year. Which i dont think you do. That means there were 84 sevenyear cycles between the destruction of jerusalem, and theres 84 84month cycles w. T what im thinking is august 11th will be the day that the jews mourn for the 5,844th day to be precise. Thats judgment day. Ive made predictions in the past, but i know when jesus answered the questions of the disciples president yee thank you. Next speaker. Hi. Good afternoon. Thank you very much. My name is ajaz. I am a cab driver for almost 29 years. First of all, i thank you, supervisor fewer, and sandra fewer. Forgive me if i pronounce wrongfully the name, and safai, and aaron peskin. This issue is we should just go away and solve the problem, and the sfmta should buy back the medallions, and we should be in peace, and the city should be in the peace, and hope sfmta has gone inspect hibernation. This is the only place we have to come for help from you peoples. And help and buy back the medallions, and push them as far as you can. Also, request, like, if we have 2300 of baggage on our back. If you could takeoff the 1250 that we pay every month to the cab companies, what for . 1,000 . Thats fine. We are thinking we got the loan from the federal credit union, but why are we paying 1250 or so to the cab companies. We should be exempted from this affiliation of the companies. If you could consider this point also, then it will alleviate at least half of our burden from our back until they are buying back, al least it will alleviate our pain a little bit, and i hope you will consider that. Thank you very much. President yee thank you. Next speaker. I have a translator here. Hello, all the members of supervisor and the president , my name [speaking native language]
