Going to simply just really water down the work of those two staff members. We need to have a minimum of two people funded fulltime for this to be successful. It costs approximately a quarter of a Million Dollars to be able to provide that service. But i think it has been successful and worth looking at. Also just as a suggestion, maybe a little bit outside of my lane, is i know in l. A. , usc for example, they have funded they are ambassadors. I think they wear yellow shirts.

I was just on the way over here, i saw something that i seldom see, i saw two San Francisco Police Officers in the bart station. So there is joint patrols that are going on. So there is just a whole lift of initiatives that were trying to get our arms around this very difficult problem. And again, i have to say you know, were not immune from the commissions conditions that exist outside of the system. At the end of the day, it presents a real challenge for what is a Transportation Agency to deal with what are very, very deep rooted social problems.
