Their Commission Also again with a stipend. Some outside contractors, the para transit coordinating council, they meet every other month or six weeks. 6 weeks. People are disabled and use the para transit and again, a stipend position. Some of us have to cobble together various pieces in order to try to survive in San Francisco. It gets harder and harder for us to survive. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Public speaker hi, i really appreciate your efforts supervisor mar in pushing this forward. I think last time you had a hearing we had folks that were partnering with ucsf with and relate that to the need for a point person.
