Chair Feinberg Opens the Meeting II. Chair Feinberg’s Remarks Chair Feinberg opened the meeting by welcoming the two new Committee Members, Robert Lin and Linda Lacewell. She stated that changes to the public speaker period during the Committee Meeting are under consideration in order to accommodate public speakers in a more efficient and respectful manner. Chair Feinberg recommended to Chairman Foye setting a specific time for speakers during the Committee Meeting which would allow members of the public to plan in advance. Chair Feinberg then raised the issue of serial criminal recidivists entering and using the NYCT system to prey upon the riding public. She noted that this has been in the news for the past few years and that she has had recent discussions with President Byford and Chairman Foye on potential MTA actions in response. Chair Feinberg expressed concern that the New York State Legislature had not taken action during the prior legislative session and noted that she would be proposing a resolution during today’s Committee Meeting to strongly convey the importance of this issue to District Attorneys and the Legislature. Chair Feinberg praised the comprehensive measures announced the prior week to address fare evasion and suggested also utilizing existing station cameras to post videos of fare evaders. III. Public Speakers There were nine public speakers. A video recording of the meeting produced by the MTA and maintained in MTA records contains the content of speakers’ statements. IV.
