Could do to advance to us policy proposals. I also think it is an issue that members of this committee could well take up and ask the basic questions, what role do we want them to play is it strictly housing, is it liquidity. Are there other ways it can be constituted given the way that the whole world but thats not really my question. I do have a question. My question relates to the approved merger which i dont believe will be the last. I have communicated to you in correspondence deep concerns held by people in the region about the continued commitment of the merged bank to invest in housing. Also communicated to you concerns about govern nans. After all, this is a fivetime zone Federal Home Loan Bank region now. And weve repeatedly asked for the letter setting forth the terms and conditions. Weve been repeatedly told we cannot have it. I want you to know that as that relates to sensitive financial matters, i completely understand. But i do not know what the compelling public good wh
Adolf hitler once said demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage and assassination. This is the war of the future. He was right, for no one will ever forget those tactics he used more than half a century later on that fateful day in september, 2001. But what you may not know is that america was actually invaded on a foggy night in the summer of 1942. A group of nazi saboteurs landed here, right here on this beach, in eastern long island. Their mission, to strike at the heart of america with acts of sabotage. And just like the terrorists from 9 11, they had all lived in america and they all knew our country well. This is the story of the men who invaded our country and those who stopped them. The germans had threatened the United States long before 1942. In 1916 while world war i was raging in europe, americans felt safe. Imperial germany was waging an allout war against britain and france but the fighting was taking place more than 3,000 miles away across the atlan

So i wanted to address a couple of things the connectivity plan and what we talked about yesterday, is not absent of a Municipal Network vision. What its focussed on right now most prominent ly is the fiber backbone that we want to create to connect primarily our municipal facilities right . Thats the obvious urgent need that w
Costly to provide free hardware or refush refurbished hardware. Supervisor christiansen. Listening to the connection noises that supervisor mar played for us, are there things that we that we should be doing to pave the the way literally for this to happen in the future talk about retro theres lots of neighborhood in the in the city that still have overhead wires and i know that there are plans that the city has to put conduits in streets that are torn up that sort of thing and are some of those programs potentially helpful down the line if we ever get to a point of becoming better wired .
