As you know yelp has lived within the same radius. Weve moved a short distance away and to keep our headquarters in San Francisco was a conscious one.

Is there anyone else that would like to speak in Public Comment . All right. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. President chiu. Supervisor chiu thank you, first of all i want to thank the members of the public who have come to express their perspective on this on all sides and from many historical perspectives. Typically for a project like this i would tend to defer to the District Supervisor, given that our District Supervisors nanders the neighborhood issues and tha that is my inlineation today.
