Dealing with perhaps we can help our delivery vehicles know when the spaces are available and use them. The other element i think that it would be good to bring together our delivery groups and the sfmta to work on those issues. Especially going into design plans where we have deliverable street plans developed. So i think im going to leave it there. I think our the commission and our office we want to be part of the solution. I think businesses want to be part of the solution but he need to make sure were designing the streets based on the priorities of what their initialing developed for and thats for business to happen thank you, president chiu. Thank you i dont except we were going to talk about the Street Project today. First of all, this is you probably know the polk street Improvement Project has involved a significant set of confidence with many, Many Industries around polk street theres been dozens of meetings really trying to balance the needs of all the stakeholders.
