Before you is discussion and possible action to approve the memorandum of understanding between Recreational Park department and Public Commission for implementation for alamo park Water Conservation project. The p. U. C. Extends grant assistance for retrofits and encouraging large water uses to implement necessary retrofits to maximize our ability to realize real water savings through conservation measures and innovative practices. In 2011 the department partnered with the p. U. C. To develop a plan for 12 parks where the most water can be conserved. Alamo square was ranked within the top five of the consumer parks but had high potential for Water Conservation. As a result i will use the overhead here. Alamo square will be the fourth park we have been able to implement this in. Previous projects include alta plaza, a 900,000 reward, replacing t
Were successful in restoring our coit tower, we have another building, the mothers building at the zoo. I dont know if the commissioners are aware but the official title systematical the dalia memorial building. I think it is in honor of the former commissioner this building needs to be restored. I did research. There was an effort in 88 and 89 to restore the building. The Art Commission is responsible for the murals or art work in the building and reck and park owns the building, i guess it is managed by the zoo. This is another building that has multiple jurisdictions. I would hope that we could rehabilitate the building.

Preparing the mitigation program. Speaking for myself i think it would have been difficult to support it without that program in place. Because i know how difficult it is for the community to deal with these types of projects. Even with this with the program you have proposed, i know it is not going to be easy. I know it is going to cause great inconveniences and hardships for the community residing around the project. Thank you. Its been moved and second. All in favor, opposed . It is unanimous, thank you.

The one thing i would like to put a question mark to is that light green area astroturf for
