Hi. Welcome to San Francisco. Stay safe and exploring how you can stay in your home safely after an earthquake. Lets look at common earthquake myths. We are here at the urban center on Mission Street in San Francisco. We have 3 guest today. We have david constructional engineer and bill harvey. I want to talk about urban myths. What do you think about earthquakes, can you tell if they are coming in advance . Hes sleeping during those earthquakes . Have you noticed him take any special . No. He sleeps right through them. There is no truth that im aware of with harvey that dogs are aware of an impending earthquake. You hear the myth all the time. Suppose the dog helps you get up, is it going to help you do something i hear they are aware of small vibrations. But yes, i read extensively that dogs cannot realize earthquakes. Today is a spectacular day in San Francisco and sometimes people would say this is earthquake weather. Is this earthquake weather . No. Not that i have heard of. No su

And in closing withhold to introduce a final speaker we want to thank the speaker that support the annual lunar stamp event and we also lets move to a House Keeping note approximately 15 minutes over after the ceremony the gentleman will be available for signing the stamp and you can purchase the stamp outside the demeanor. We want to introduce the past president of the which they think so American Organization as i look around the room a lot of you live in San Francisco and unvalidated the first statesman of the first or first series in 1993 the post office at that time, it was historical and it was history to us to be able to advocate for the release of come tat its stamp.

To say. Is there any additional Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Mr. Woois, we have rebuttal time. Three minutes. 3 minutes. Things have changed. The first thing i would like to mention is i have been as Everybody Knows more or less the driving force. Im not shamed of that. In fact it is important to note that no place at any time have i made an issue of the view. My issue has entirely been from the very first both at the hearing on august 28th in my statement of opposition that i submitted to mr. Sanchez before the hearing and in our brief if you read it you will see i make no reference to the view at all. My concern as you can tell from my initial presentation is about the place. The place you are while you are seeing the view. Another claim you raised a very good question in asking the applicant what in fact this provides to you . As far as i can see it doesnt really provide very much. Not to mention that its totally unnecessary. The one thing that i wanted to

For me, personally, especially coming from my background outside of city government, i knew my role on all the Economic Activity in San Francisco, focusing on jobs, but also, a lot of quality of life issues. Young families, what is like to live here as a San Francisco, and what we can do in city hall to make life better for San Francisco residents. To me, that is a huge deal.
