Does anyone want to propose any new business and i want to mention on item 7 not necessarily the infrastructure of getting us all the stuff weve exhausted i need assistance with the rapid plan just a catastrophic on a fragile Economic Society we have it is literally effecting the latino coordinator from thirty to 16 and then in addition with the extension of the possibly the parking meters it is very scary especially a Community Think a month to month lease and is there a group or groups that we should invite or whats the next what can we do here. I will get with the nonprofit chair meta and see if we cant get the business constituents and try to organize unfortunately there are so many there are not as strong and traditional neighborhoods but getting them one voice and coalesce was it here. I have a question what is is guidelines the milestones. It is all right there so. What are the next well, first before the extension of the parking meters so that is another diagram and 24 to 16 not removed the parking meters it is done even though it is not in effect no going back but it will somehow to find solutions in a retroactive. What can we do. What can we do and when can we do the timing is important what you propose so we can you know since were talking about new business. Like i said by the next meeting well cooperate with gabriel at meta and get sfmta the dialogue. I have the feedback but Getting Solutions as in terms of parking the segment for the people the demographics people dont drive the restaurants had to move out for gentrification and the cities policy of transit first is. Theyve paint the red line down the middle of mission. That is were not surprised i want to back him up that surprised a lot of people what two weeks notice that happened. Talking about the taxi turn and bus on. I get it 24 guess my business burden from a City Residents i have family in lovett so part of northern part of city i get it as a resident but the impact on businesses the funeral business it was urban intended consequences. In burr necessarily theyve painted. But unfortunately sort of a postmortem to understand the effect this thing proposed elsewhere the city as well i think; right . Those brt lanes; right . And i remember the commission proposing paint the sidewalks and the streets as paint it pave it and paint it you cant undo concrete. There recent a consequence were trifsz and bringing the folks out and wait for some of the others. And from this this is a good way to develop a check list and do sort of you know an assessment in terms of of what the list to be working on and the concern and the deficit to the agency to the board of supervisors to the of its done its done but monitoring in terms of what are the result of that so it informs future projects. Best practices involve from the consequences of the actions good and bad we should understand the consequences so we can promote folding that into the best practices. It is quite a beginner typical case case study you have such a negative impact so in the sense of bringing these issues before the commission it is crucial that that happen i mean in that project. Yeah. Unfortunately in my community it is over behind because the leases are month to month. Right. It is i dont get a loan or sell my lease boom gone gone forever. Perhaps commissioner you can send me the list of concerns for the full commission what has been discussed i will send a link to the from the sfmta that website so that for those that are not familiar with the projects you can do reading and background but then figure out you know ask sfmta to address some of the things thats on your list.
