On April 9, Tainan underground railway held a second Eastern District public meeting. However, an announcement to adjourn the meeting after only 15 minutes by Urban Renewal Bureau Chief, Wu Xin-xiu (吳欣修), was met with strong disapproval from the participating self-help group. Students jumped on top of Wu Xin-xiu’s car to stop him from leaving. Meanwhile, Tainan City Government Secretary-General Xiao Bo-ren (蕭博仁) was forced to flee the scene and take shelter in a local police station.
Families facing the prospect of having homes demolished and being forcibly relocated sent a clear message that the public hearing had been an unproductive failure – they demand that the process is immediately stopped. Following the abrupt ending of the public hearing, the representative for eviction of residents along the rail line also disappeared, leaving no more opportunities for dialogue. A representative of the self-help group said the unfairness of the briefing procedures brought its legality into question, and re-emphasized the importance of the city raising a legislative hearing to quell any controversy.

南鐵都更程序暴力 東移迫遷戶不平
4月9日台南市鐵路地下化第二場東區說明會召開，都發局長吳欣修宣布完會議程序後，會議進行十分鐘即宣布會議完成散會，此舉引發自救會強烈不滿，有學生跳上吳欣修座車阻擋吳欣修離去，而市府主任秘書蕭博仁走進第一分局東門派出所躲避，拆遷戶表達這次說明會無效的訴求，要求停止一切程序。草草結束的都更說明會，意味著代表鐵路沿線迫遷戶居民的發言權就此消失，不再有發言的機會，自救會指出：今天的說明會程序不公，並質疑其適法性，也再度強調市府辦聽證會解除爭議的訴求。
