changes? i think the department thinks the concept of the legislation is great. the reason we said not to make a recommendation because the legislation had not been finalized yet and introduced and we felt uncomfortable telling you to endorse something that wasn t actually there. my understanding is it hasn t been actually introduced, although they do have the language ready. i think dominica can speak more to that, so. so, the actual amendments that will be made to the legislation that was sent to you will be introduced at the land use committee on october 1st. so, they have not been introduced at the board level, but they ve just now been finally drafted. and i think for the most part, all parties i can speak for supervisor olague s office. she has accepted i think all but one of the changes. so, she s certainly happy to make these amendments on monday, but then also if there are additional points to negotiate, then we re willing to discuss that at the land use hearin
think it was, not to make not to make a recommendation, but dominica today talked about the changes that had been made to the legislation. so, i don t mean to put you on the spot, but does staff feel like we can make a recommendation today? is that what you were waiting for for those particular changes? i think the department thinks the concept of the legislation is great. the reason we said not to make a recommendation because the legislation had not been finalized yet and introduced and we felt uncomfortable telling you to endorse something that wasn t actually there. my understanding is it hasn t been actually introduced, although they do have the language ready. i think dominica can speak more to that, so. so, the actual amendments that will be made to the legislation that was sent to you will be introduced at the land use committee on october 1st. so, they have not been introduced at the board level, but they ve just now been finally drafted. and i think for the mo

on this. thank you. good afternoon. residential builders association. i got my first call about this project three or four years ago, from peter cohen, representing eureka valley neighborhood association. there were perhaps two or three others. there was a long list of issues and concerns. through a lot of dialogue, through a good open process, these groups have managed to work through a lot. it is not often that you can satisfy all these groups. when you can, it is noteworthy. you can never satisfy everyone. it is difficult. i can assure you there was years of outreach done on this particular project. as you can see by the letters of support, it is noteworthy. president fong: additional public comment? i am afraid we allow each person to come up for 3 minutes. i am sorry. is there additional public comment from those who have not spoken yet? that closes the public comment portion. commissioner antonini: i have a few questions. i guess the first is in regards to the height.
