Commissioner riley . Yes, i want to mention that [inaudible] the petition on this establishment. [inaudible] can i put up a diagram to show you the process . I just want to clarify that before sb 731 went in place and before people went through the dph process they all went through this process.

Thats something they have been looking at. They hired additional planners, like a dozen of them and they have programs for small types of businesses that maybe dont have to go through commissions. So im very interested in looking forward to that bigger conversation where again, massage would be included as part of that. The second issue is that you spoke about in terms of outreach in making sure people are aware of this proposal for conditional use process. This has been the process for many many years until 731 came into place. The other thing i want to highlight about it is that our Office Actu
