Estate, the Grocery Stores have, you know, a larger area to unload and load and i think that we are not going to need to start looking at these, i guess, you call them drug stores, but you know, they carry so many things and i think that we need to start looking at them a little bit differently in terms of what, what is going to be required for them to you know, do what they need. Commissioner dwight . Maybe just a couple of other variations to put on your radar screen not to discuss here, but you might want to consider pop up retail which is done by sometimes by large corporations just to test the concept in the market. And then the other is to consider shopinshops a corporate entity coming in and taking over a portion of the existing establishment and could totally be done by having an agreement with a retailer and i want to have my own physical display and that can take on pretty significant dimension inside of the store.

Fewer than 100. In the coming year, our program is focused on enhancing our business collateral and improving the material to provide more robust information to employers about options for a complete Transportation Program including commuter benefits but also the other Transportation Programs that we offer. We are also focusing more on enforcement of the ordinance, to insure that all businesses that are required to offer benefits to their employees, understand the requirements and are working in these programs with us. And during a partnership of the office of economic and workforce development, smart will be conducting the out reach specifically targeted to businesses with neighborhood commercial corridor and this out reach will focus on commuter programs and also electric vehicle programs. And finally, the regional ordinance will be taking effect later this year, and that will effect the businesses with 50 or more employees in the 9 county bay area. And the San Francisco commuter ben
Finalize the scope in working with the consultants so the number one point is to choose neighborhoods that reflect the different conditions on the ground, the different economic levels different rates of activity and the different areas served so is this a regional hub . Is it a local hub, or a city wide district, and we want to make sure that we have a good balance and then, we want to make sure that the districts that are chosen in terms of comparison have it a balance of formula retail that we will study. So will there be Big Box Stores in addition to Smaller Stores . And we want to make sure that we have all of our possibilities covered in there including, perhaps, entities that are not currently considered formula retail but may be in the future. And for example, gas stations, or gyms or other personal service.

So, i think that in terms of, and so when you are asking to have them sort of do and taking a look at a form law retail and what is sort of the arrogate in terms of what it brings verses nonformula retail. Are you going to ask the entity that is doing the rfp to sort of make sure that there is some sort of weight and balance of doing that, because, if you take, you know, lets just say a larger Clothing Store verses a smaller Clothing Store, how are you going to equate so that the scale is not tipped just by volume . I think that the short answer to that is that we dont want to finalize after the consultant is selected, we will finalize the scope in working with the consultants so the number one point is to choose neighborhoods that reflect the different conditions on the ground, the different economic levels different ratesof activity and the different areas served so is this a regional hub .

And finally, the regional ordinance will be taking effect later this year, and that will effect the businesses with 50 or more employees in the 9 county bay area. And the San Francisco commuter benefits ordinance will work hand in hand with the regional ordinance to expand the availability of commuter benefits. To more employees in the bay area.
