CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2017-02-08 | 14 | COMMISSION ON DISABILITY ISSUES MEETING MINUTES OF Wednesday, February 8th, 2017 6:30 p.m. Commissioner Lewis: And will the - I'm assuming it will be the West End - will that be expanded to the ferry? Gail Payne: It will not be expanded to the ferry, however, I do have good news in that Line 31, AC transit Line 31, is extending to the ferry in March. Commissioner Lewis: Will it go actually to the ferry, though? Gail Payne: Yes, it will have a layover at the Main Street Ferry Terminal. Yeah. Chair Kenny: Well, Gail I would like to thank you for presenting this and all the effort that has gone in, it's clear that it's been thoroughly thought through and a lot of work has been put into this. At this time I would like to make a motion that we approve the application for Measure B and BB Paratransit funding for the fiscal year '17-'18. Commissioner Deutsch: I second. Chair Kenny: All in favor? All: Aye. Chair Kenny: Any opposed? No. Great. Gail Payne: Thank you. Thank you for your great comments I appreciate it. Chair Kenny: Thank you. Now we go onto old business. 5. OLD BUSINESS Kerry: And this is really annual business. I'm going to take over from you, Chair Kenny. Chair Kenny: Yep. 5-A. Election of new Commission Chair and Vice Chair (City Staff) Kerry: So in the bylaws it says that we annually elect a new chair and new vice-chair. And basically that being chair or vice-chair entails helping to set up the agenda and discussing things that you'd like to see on the agenda. It's definitely more communication with your staff. And both the current chair and vice-chair have let me know that while they'd be willing to do this again, they're also willing to let someone else give it a go if they're really interested. I'd like to start by accepting nominations for commission chair. Commissioner Aghapekian: I nominate Beth. Commissioner Lewis: Second. Commissioner Deutsch: I second.
