Like many San Francisco neighborhoods to get a parking spot in this area you need to drive around. I have that situation. I had a car until three years ago when i said it is a pain in the butt. Finding parking is hard. I was fortunate to be in a situation to get rid of the car. A lot of folks dont have that. We are also looking at a situation that goes what do we want to prioritize . Parking spots are homes for people. At the end of the day it does frankly suck that is a tradeoff we have to figure out because parking does take up space.

General manager for water gave a presentation of the bay area think tank. The title of the presentation was bay delta and the future of Regional Water supplies, a copy of the powerpoint has been presented or submitted to the commission. On the overhead is the slide of that presentation. The presentation began with the statement that the Regional Water issues are not a supply issue but a, quote, unquote, plumbing issue. And the plumbing issue could be resolved through a number of agreements between Regional Water districts and with infrastructure projects. On the overhead is a summary of the Capital Projects which would revolve the plumbing issue. However, it was stated the sfpuc, 20 percent of these projects came to fruition would be fortunate. It was stated the projects that came to fruition will take ten to 30 years to complete. The first the overhead, the first seven projects listed would cost 2 billion.
