means 3 persons are mantling simply banished instead of being killed you have to ask the injured if this is a good deal trauma is forever board members when are you going to lift our eyes and realize that 21st century has 21st century opportunity to eliminate themanual and the scraping the barbara and the killing that technology give us the capacity if you choose to use it to watch every vehicle

>> hi and doug i've been a driver guide since 1992 in san francisco and i'm here fighting for my job i agree the traffic safety is paramount and i think that people in my profession actually are some of the safety drivers out there i feel also when we talk about human impact we need to talk about the human impact on the variety of people in the tourism industry what it means to be a tougher guide in san francisco. >> sir, i'm sorry you're speaking about an item on the agenda and unfortunately you can't comment that on that. >> it is interesting the gentleman before that he spoke to the same issue why. >> this is public comment not public comment comment and answer you need to focus on a subject matter not on the agenda. >> can i make one more sentence what you need to do is consider the policies and procedures opinions and experiences of san francisco guides many would be willing to testify before you make a decision i implore you to do that we'll be back. >> thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good evening members of the board and the general public comment i'm born and raised in san francisco i'm here to say that the taking over of san francisco by silicon valley is ridiculous there is global buses everywhere there is anywhere from 10 to 16 to 20 thousand tmcs it is a race to the bottom for those people to make a living the cab industry paid san francisco $30 million every year the tmcs give nothing to san francisco it is amazing to me that i and the city farthest the city fathers are allowing this to happen i'll say that the amount of people when the tmcs the first part when they're number one when their this is the most dangerous part of driving their uninsured many cases like you don't pay the insurance you can call any insurance company they don't insure the tmcs and it is incredible the mayor knew that was no insurance the mayor said they allowed this we're going to be people killed and injured in san francisco on the overflow of the drivers trying to make aing i believe the blood is on the hands of the mayor and the city father you have to control the amount of tmcs and cabs in the city this is insage i is an what's golden in san francisco. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. my name is is marseille i've lived in san francisco for 31 years and i've been drying a taxi with yellow can be for years i'm here to remind san francisco that the cabs are a major asset it's not okay for the mayor to support and facilitate and petition at the same time, they charge a quarter of a million dollars for medallion supervisor president breed shortly after lucy was killed you want on an interview and called the taxi industry bloke and made sure that - i don't like competition they're not fair competition they're eating my lunch and your lunch and taking the muni rides they have pricing how can you for the record as a taxicab to drive someone across the city for $7 uber is doing that that's not fair we carry a million dollar liability they over low rides the streets of san francisco are not safe if you're not driving you do so that supervisor president breed i wrote you a letter to governor jerry brown and willie brown for the jurisdiction over and over and over the tmcs i want to hand it to you in case you having don't have a. >> thank you the clerk will retrieve the letter. >> good afternoon. i'm robert i am too a cab driver unfortunately this city has decided it didn't want taxis on the road you have to release the day there are not taxis and this is coming very soon don't think you are going to have a few years to think about it i predict in the next 18 months the entire taxi industry will collapse there is no price control an uber at present with their billions of their subsidizing drivers who take rides unfortunately, this is completely legal by all the puc registration that is our mayor enforced he didn't want restriction of tmcs for the city this is a tragic mistake the day there are no taxicabs do you think that the tmcs are even going to consider taxis rates they're going to be sky-high and taxis will never come back. >> thank you very much. >>

thank you very much we are (music) >> herb theatreopen rehearsal. listen to the rehearsal. i think it is fun for them they see our work process, our discussions, the decisions we make. it is good for us. we kind of behavior little bit when we have people in the audience. msk (music) >> we are rehearsing for our most expensive tour; plus two concerts here. we are proud that the growth of the orchestra, and how it is expanded and it is being accepted. my ambition when i came on as music director here -- it was evident we needed absolutely excellent work. also evident to me that i thought everyone should know that. this was my purpose. and after we opened which was a spectacular opening concert about five weeks after that the economy completely crashed. my plan -- and i'm absolutely dogmatic about my plans --were delayed slightly. i would say that in this very difficult timefor the arts and everyone especially the arts, it's phenomenal how new century has grown where many unfortunate organizations have stopped. during this period we got ourselves on national radio presence; we started touring releasing cds, a dvd. we continue to tour. reputation grows and grows and grows and it has never stopped going forward. msk(music) >> the bay area knows the orchestra. you maybe take things for granted a little bit. that is simply not the case will go on the road. the audiences go crazy. they don't see vitality like this on stage. we are capable of conveying joy when we play. msk(music) >> any performance that we do, that a program that will be something on the program that you haven't heard before. string orchestra repertoire is pretty small. i used to be boxed into small repertoire. i kept constantly looking for new repertoire and commissioning new arrangements. if you look at the first of the program you have very early, young vibrant mendelson; fabulous opener and then you have this fabulous concerto written for us in the orchestra. is our gift. msk(music) >> and then you have strauss, extraordinary piece. the most challenging of all. string orchestra work. 23 solo instrument no violin section, now viola section; everybody is responsible for their part in this piece. the challenge is something that i felt not only that we could do , absolutely could do but i wanted to show off. i can't tell you how aware i am of the audience. not only what i hear but their vibes, so strong. i have been doing this for a long time. i kind of make them feel what i want them to feel. there is nobody in that audience or anywhere that is not going to know that particular song by the fourth note. and that is our encore on tour. by the way. i am proud to play it we are from san francisco. we are going to play that piece no matter where we are.
