That would just buy into the biases and weaknesses that all Whistleblower Programs have. It would be important to get to an whistleblower advocacy organization, such as the Government Accountability project in washington d. C. One of the consultants could advise to the standards that a Whistleblower Program should have to meet the needs of the whistleblowers in the public. It needs to be an independent audit and not by the same folks. We heard a lot about the rising quantity of complaints, but i want to talk about the quality or value of those complaints.

Public comment. We do have a commentator. This should be one of the chowder judges. Good evening commissioners. I just want to also give kudos to randal and rachel from the Community Benefit district at fishermans wharf. The business there is like a roller coaster ride. Today was completely dead. So events like this help merchants it keeps the vie vibrance. The fact that we are having this discussion, i mean, is great. Theres a Michael Jackson performer. Theres a sinatra performer. They are not permitted performers. They just come up randomly whenever they want so to speak. But having this discussion today, we are ready and we know what we are getting. I commend this gentleman here. Wharf fest is going to be very successful. I think it will be sold out. This is not a first time event. They have a history behind this event. So i just think that this one in particular, the music is going to be really cool this year. So im all for it. Thank you. Anymore Public Comment . Seeing none, Publi
