renoun but in terms of harding park a shout out to former supervisor tony hall who renovated the course and one of the things he did when he assumed office in 2001 to get the funding and do a renovation and allowed significant golf tournament the pga to come to that course he was able to divert some of the rainwater into the entertainment plants and into the lake merced the level has been consistently pretty high even in the year we supposedly have not had a lot of

rain we had 16 inches those were things farsighted and in terms of the drought i'm supportive of the effort to xhoefr i think this is sort of the first step we need to have the vision our for bearings had to lock for storage i mean if we taken the altitude we took today when we settled san francisco we can't live here inwarrant and trees they created enough water for san francisco but enough to support another one and a half million customers outside of san francisco so we need that kind of vision there's lots of water in many places throughout the united states if we can build

pipelines to alaska or cross the united states we can build some for water sources and also let's build our dams to store for years we don't have water for the going population it is a short concept he knows you're never going to have enough if you don't store it that's any opinion on the whole situation. >> commissioner richards a couple of things you'll see me always do this in the in your opinion, about the tree company losing the lease on wednesday john king had a great couple of prarpz paragraphs he writes and i think this speaks to the anxiety that folks feel in the city you put a red bow on the 49 square miles and call san francisco evicted these are
