Know anyone of these applicants would do a tremendous job on this body. The way this process works, even if you are not appointed right away its important to be in the cue because there are vacancies for a lot of reasons and its important that people remain engaged and i want to say thank you to all the people who have expressed an interest. I think that the caliber that you see is the kind of caliber that we need to really move the Agency Forward and sort of outside of the box thinking. Even if you dont get appointed right away, i would ask you to be patient because this process will eventually allow you to be involved. So thank you very much. I did want to just thank Erin Goldsmith and other past ca members for their work. I think eric is going to bring not only a sunset perspective but regional perspective to this work with Development Without displacement. I think there is really good knowledge and especially from sat San Mateo County that he will bring our neighbor to the south. I

The truth of matter is tep is based on reducing service. If we are doing everything to do with transit first, we have a lot of work to do. Now, recent with john hailey, he knows what hes up against in terms of providing Economic Service that these citizens of San Francisco defer. Deserve. We know what we are up against. Tep, its not going to work. Of course you have to put aside a project because we know its too many holes within the tep goal going on right now. We have to complete the project.
