Great, i do have some other folks that have identified this is the item they want to speak on. If any of those folks want to speak on this item, come on forward. They may want to speak on the next item, which they can. All right. So, seeing no further speakers, oh. Mr. Kelly.

I encourage you to relook at some of these policies and take a look at where some of these policies belong, a trash can. Clerk thank you, next speaker, please. Good afternoon, supervisors. My name is jaime, and im with the association of retail outlets. We strongly oppose this proposed ordinance. We oppose this proposal for the following reasons. It would effectively ban almost all vape Harm Reduction products in San Francisco county, exacerbate the Financial Impact of local retailers, likely harm rather than benefit Public Health and do little or nothing to affect youth. It would only promote illicit sales to those under 21 in the city of San Francisco.

I would have to doublecheck. I am making a note myself. I usually check in with them. It is not the internal bookkeeping but i can check on that. One last thing. Can you give me more clarity on whether this full move to pos is going to be party to this and necessitate businesses to do that, and in that case how is that going to work with customers that dont have the email.
