Week with the cooldown on the way. Mike, you have an unexpected delay through the south bay. I should have specified an unpleasant surprise for soean je 101 jamming up from 280 680 up to shy of the nimitz, about oakland road.

Limiting the height and modifications to the reuse Center Buildings and a reduction of the new building near laurel and euclid to preserve more open space and further limits on the types of nonresidential uses proposed. Related to the height of the Center Buildings, the Planning Commission supported the overall scale including the height because their placement in the center of the site set back from the public rights of way was a project objective.
