book donations.
Councilmember Olivier commented on the need to level the playing field for
the taxi industry in light of the threat posed by ride sharing apps like Uber

companies in order to make them competitive. Councilmember Olivier
called the following Taxi industry representatives to speak on the issue: Al
Makki of Bulldog Cab, Mario Soto of Fresno Cab and Juan Bejar of Taxi
Azteca. The speakers stated they could not compete with ride sharing apps
under the current regulations placed on taxis. The speakers noted they
were required to wait at least two months to hire drivers when Uber and Lyft
could hire people the same day.

Councilmember Baines and would donate $500 to the Reading Heart
