Highway early this afternoon. The sunset solidarity march began at sloat and protesters marched to lincoln. Demonstrators have gathered again in vallejo to protest the death of george floyd. The city, however, reeling and really on edge after reports of looting over the weekend. Last night city hall was broken into. A fire was set on the first floor. That caused the sprinklers to go off. The citys mayor says it is now uninhabitable in the building, and the police chief is really appalled at what he saw happening. This was a coordinated attack by organized individuals seeking to cause destruction and harm to our community. And no such acts will be tolerated. Vallejo did issue a curfew last night that started at 8 00 p. M. , lasting until 5 00 a. M. It is in place until further notice. In danville, almost every single business on harts avenue is boarded up. You see messages supporting george floyd sprayed on some of the plywood. There has not been any looting in danville.

Within two men crossed paths one of them was eric reason, father of six and construction worker. The other that was offduty Richmond Police Sergeant Virgil thomas, 23 department veteran and husband of the rich and placement. Reason was armed with a gun and brandished it at the sergeant who opened fire. Rezas mother says she doesnt know her sun had a gun. If thats the case i think it still wasnt necessary. Being armed does not warrant an execution. Reporter Family Friends held a prayer circle at the gas station. Among them was melissa no, civil rights attorney. She says the Police Sergeant was a main aggressor. When you have a license Police Officer who is escalating into a parking dispute in a crowded area we are concerned how that can happen. The placement said unfortunately when the Police Officers confronted with a felon armed with a firearm deadly force may be necessary. Please reserve judgment until the investigation is finished. Richmond police are conducting an internal review.
That are charging great rents but the experiences are not that great. I see a lot of opportunity to provide otherwise improvement to that corner, you guys all know the corner, we have a month to month rent with the bike shop that says basically free bikes on the outside of the building. Commissioner johnson. Thank you. You can have a seat. Thank you though. Ill be pretty short here. This project hasnt changed other than the agreement with the childcare facility from last time. I can still consider this a land use issue. The changes to the project makes it more of a residential project with transient occupancy and with the online projects, i try to side on the side of the project sponsor and sort of see the bright side of what is being proposed for us. On this particular one, i think there are issues with the lot and i dont think of it just as the dividing line, spoken about by various people in Public Comment but generally speaking with that corner lot with the elements of things makin

For Fishermans Wharf to succeed, to go from north beach to Fishermans Wharf, we had an area that was dicey to say it mildly the the people who took on an amazing transformation is one of a kind and i think its pride of that success, including giving large numbers of people the ability to be live in decent housing and par take in how good housing lifts you up from nowhere to somewhere.

And its for that very reason that i have to stand by not supporting the hotel but looking for a Housing Development on this portion. Commissio
