Trying to coordinate this effort, and get ourselves in line to something that we can agree with. All right. So weve spent a fair amount of time after having submitted our variance opposition in june to discuss with john the issues that we have and the concerns that we have. Those concerns focused on obstruction, loss of natural light, shoring and improvement of the property, permit and liability responsibilities and disruption to the tenants during the construction process. After about three months of pretty intense working of this and enhancing our concerns, and iterating over solutions, we came up with and did reach an agreement of cooperation. Were very comfortable with this agreement and feel it does address our concerns. Specifically and my own opinion it protects our property. It respects and considers our tenants rights and actually it benefits as john has mentioned both parties and we worked hard during these months to make sure thats what it was doing. Okay. So since have with

Understand the situation. Again i am just reiterating quickly. We worked as hard as we could through all of the processes, meeting all of the neighbors, the neighborhood groups. We have gone through a couple of major revisions of this project to satisfy planning staff and a lot of the udat input. We feel its a great project. In fact theres some neighbors here also to support the project. We feel very strongly that to have two buildings, one fronting on perine place will make a nicer neighborhood on the alley rather than just rear ends of a building and more of a service fear to it. There are people that live on the alley that have the same feeling so im here for any questions or any further comments you want to direct to me. Thanks. Thank you.
