Parking, all of those things. And so i welcome this. And i hope we do it. Thank you. Commissioner richards. So just to be clear its nothing that you just said that i would say i violently disagree with. I did meet with supervisor moore a couple weeks ago and he asked to meet with me because when i first met him i said you should take the reigns and show sacramento that we are doing something. But i said to him two weeks ago we need to be careful that if you do things that there is some type of protection that we dont do something and then all of a sudden something rolls over us and everything that we did actually was more not because now theres some new mandate out of sacramento. We spent weeks years, on the market octavia plan. We designed it, 45 feet in the middle of the block, 55 feet at the end of the block. Got 85 feet in the middle of the block now. These are the kinds of things im talking about. We got to be careful. Thats all im saying. Thank you. Let me just add one more thing
Member in minneapolis minnesota as they began their conversation about eliminating Single Family homes that said something that resonated with me that there are a ton of places that it makes sense not to add density. There are rural communities. We have farmland we need to protect. But to expect San Francisco california, to be that place it just doesnt make any sense. And so while conversations will continue to happen at the state, i think the reallocation process going on now is fascinating. Its fascinating what happened in Southern California when you have bedroom communities having allocations going from 15 to 1500 over the next cycle. What that means for people who havent done their fair share, because this is not a San Francisco problem. This is a bay area problem, a california problem, frankly its a problem we have in our country. I know some of you are excited to see the housing was asked during the debate last time for the first time something we need to talk about. We are exci

And that is what was beautiful about the victory we just had at the polls of proposition e with proposition a is that we were able to convince the voters that there was this relationship between density and funding. And i think that thats key to the conversation we had about racial equity, because it wasnt just zoning that created our inequalities and Racial Disparities in america. It was the combination of zoning and money and availability of capital. So the way i see it, what has happened in the mission and soma and increasing

Existing height of the building. The height restriction is intended to prevent projects like this one. Thank you. Thank you. Welcome. I am a 41yearold tenant, and all of these years they have been an asset to the neighborhood. The building has been vacant, pretty much vacant, and the paint has been peeling for the last four years. It is time to get going on this renovation. I think from my standpoint, i dont have all of the facts and figures. I think theyre going to do a good job, as they have done in the neighborhood. As i said, i have been there 41 years, i know the buildings that they own, and manage, and they are all beautifully kept. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Welcome. Good evening.
