People on the gulf coast are making last minute preparations ahead of Hurricane Sally arrival filling sandbags as the look happening. Storm prepares to make landfall you are right. Near the alabamamississippi that orange sky came to us last border. The storm is expected to move wednesday and then the smoke slowly and dropping up to 30 came the day after and been inches of rain in isolated areas from the central gulf coast to the florida pan with us ever since.

On the whole, i am supportive of this project, and i will turn it over to the director. Thank you, commissioner. I will emphasize this is 25 affordable. It is a pretty su substantial number of affordable. To commissioner johnsons point, it is common in much of the city to have taller buildings at the corners especially in the commercial districts. It is common in the richmond and Pacific Heights with the multiple story buildings with lower rise Single Family or two family between, and because this is on a major transit line, as many of you pointed out, this felt like the right place for this amount of density. With respect to the transition. This is a very narrow lot. It would be extremely difficult, i think, to carve out some parts of this building without losing more units and getting into that whole discussion about the loss of units with respect to other aspects of city law and policy. I think on the whole weared on the side of saying this was the right project in the right place a

I want to second your motion. Thank you. Commissioner fong. It is interesting that the flow in terms of or waves, if you will, of Housing Development in our city. If you look at this area, you know, the first great wave was after the war when sun stream and those People Developers built quite a few of the homes here. They built it on a relatively small scale for the returning g is. As i indicated at a previous time, perhaps the norm of what we are seeing in San Francisco changed. We are now getting these 5, 6, 7 story pop ups, walk ups similar to the larger cities that we have had.
