Office to present. Our ballot measure today is intended to provide some guidance around i think what is an issue for San Francisco as a city.

There is concern about the loss of nonprofit space and there is also a concern about the loss of art spaces and these are the types of uses in San Francisco that makes San Francisco so great and so unique.
