i cannot speak to that particular person. supervisor campos: ok. supervisor mar. supervisor mar: i just wanted to also say i would like more of a clear explanation of why the current president, who is the resident on the tida board is not remaining, but i do hear from you that there is a commitment to as soon as possible after the november 15 deadline appoint a resident to the seven-member tida board, but it worries me a little bit that doug shoemaker, the one who has tremendous experience with various projects, housing projects for affordable housing, and also maintaining that residents have benefits and that in the development, that their concerns are being met. it is kind of like you are bumping up someone with tremendous experience in order to fill that seat, but you are going to appoint him as soon as possible right after november 15. is that correct? correct. and doug will certainly remain involved, and i think we have great expertise with mr. del carlo and mr. elbe
