There are two callers. First speaker, please. So, again, commissioners, this pandemic, as you can see, very few people want to participate in any of these major projects. So we leave it to you, our representatives, to do Due Diligence based on third street, which is a mess, the central subway, we are waiting for the opening, the van ness bus rapid transit, the businesses that needed to be helped have gone. And we havent learned anything what happened on Market Street before. We always dont seem to learn something from the past projects and we dont seem to have a checklist.

And then we love to have our fire chats, the Public Comment period, where we allow them a couple of minutes and you dont seem to be paying attention to us.

And what happened was and this has not happened a lot but it does come up, what happens when you take an Affordable Housing model and allow for protections and plot that on a place where people either were rent controlled or thought they were rent controlled tenant and that raised issues and complications and we worked through that and did legislation and supervisor peskin made clear tenants werent losing the protections even if you overlaid Affordable Housing. Honestly, colleagues, if midtown had been build in 2014 and everyone had come in we wouldnt have that problem and thats a shift in people with rent control protection to another program.
