said it was a sued side. san francisco was outsmarted and responded to a suicide. they left the abuser and his family in her apartment, to sanitize the scene. he was left there, and it was a parole violation that he was even here. so the city responded how it responds to suicides, but we have to look past this because to allow an abuser to be in the apartment with a dead woman who clearly has injuries all over her body do not appear to be self-inflicted, and his would was taken that day and every day since over the word of this community and family who knows that jessica did not kill herself. certainly not in front of her

children. so we stand with this family and this community, and we ask you, help us get a full investigation. we don't want to see anybody who's innocent go to jail, but because to know the truth. san francisco deserves the truth, this family deserves the truth, the community deserves the truth. thank you. >> president yee: thank you, beverly. next speaker. >>arian hernandez. i'm here standing also in solidarity with the sisters and family of jessica alba. i also am going against my ways by asking you officials who are in office to do your job. we ask for a full investigation on behalf of the san francisco police department and we also have a question as to why our people are getting i.d.ed for

the most smallest things, but on this day, these individuals weren't i.d.ed. had they been i.d.ed in this proper situation, they wouldn't have been would have been held accountable for the situation. >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> supervisors, my month of april was set aside for domestic violence, and most of you all have no clue or had no clue that this woman who i knew, an advocate very generous who went to u.s.f., a mother of six children, was killed. all of you supervisors sent a letter to the district

attorney, george gascon. all of you supervisors have to send a letter to the mayor, who is a woman, and all of you supervisors have to sent a letter to chief william scott. we need justice. on saturday, i went to 850 bryant to witness the women speak and express their sentiments in song and a drum beat. i represent the ohlone, and i'm watching you all like a hawk. do not mess with me. i got very high clearance, do not mess with me. this is not the first time that a person of color, that an investigation hasn't been done in the proper manner. and so you supervisors, all of

you organizations that you have in the city have to support the family, a mother of six. i wrote an article, but it was very difficult for me to write the article, but i did write it. [applause] >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon. my name's michelle anton. i'm a member of the tohono o'odham nation and i'm here to

advocate for jessica for justice. shame on the sfpd for not doing a proper investigation. if they would have dug a little deeper, done a little more investigation, found out who he was, he had a warrant. they would have did more -- i would have hoped they would have done more. i'm here to advocate to fight for justice for jessica, and we're asking for your support to help us get this investigation. this should not have happened. there's six kids without their mom which didn't need to happen. it's heart breaking, it's just heartbreaking all-around. this woman came to san francisco to start all over, and she became an active community member, she was a loving mom. she spoke on many different issues in this city that affected our communities. she is the kind of person that you would want as your

neighbor, a loving, caring person, and she's gone. and nothing was being done about it, and his word is being taken over what we knee is not true. she would never leave her kids like that, and we need justice for jessica. [applause] >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon. my name is bruce jolly. i'm here today as an elder to speak for jessica alba. 69 years old, but that's not the significance here. the day that i've been on this earth are over 25,000. for her is a little bit more than 12,000. for her, she had six children. she was a grandmother not only

to her children, but to other children because she had a family. she was an auntie, she was a mother, she was a sister, she was a child to her mom sitting her. we ask for justice. this lies on you, not so much for the san francisco police department because we're here speaking on behalf of her to you today. we -- we're not going to go away. we've been here. we're indigenous people, aboriginal people of this land, so we are not going to go away. she was a community worker, leader. attended many events.

when people were mad, she'd say i love you, i love you. they kept saying that. i love you. we're here today, we're honored and blessed to hear this, and we want to see justice for jessica abla. thank you. [applause] >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> hello. i'm here to support jessica. i did not know jessica, but i am an enrolled here of the cheyenne lakota tribe. i know all about police brutality on black and brown people, and their negligence when it comes to homicide, and from personal experience when deal from domestic violence, and then turning around and questioning me so much that i

don't want to make a report, all of these situations turning around and making it worse. there needs to be a change, a lot of more sensitivities with cultural relevance -- a lot of men that were in prison, they learned how to manipulate the system and make, like, calls for -- like, how he made the call, i dealt with that with my ex. they'll have the call just so it looks like it happened to them, and people will take their side. there needs to be reform, and there needs to be justice for jessica. thank you. knee knee new.

ne -- >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> hello. my name is desiree, and i'm here to support the family. i just want to say the reason why this impacts me so much, i see so much of myself in jessica. i see how she did everything she could to be there for hur her family, to her -- her family, for her community. she did everything right by getting a restraining order against this person, and you know, i think that rather than looking at what she did in the past, you need to look at what she is today. she's a resilient woman. our native women, we're murdered at a rate that's ten times higher than the national average. this is an emotional matter for me because we're constantly

told i'm a survivor of domestic violence, and as native women, we're constantly told it's our fault when we get abused, and we don't get believed. you know, right now, the family is saying one thing, and the abuser is saying another. why wouldn't we believe the family and why aren't their stories being taken into account in this investigation? it was clear that this was not her fault, and the family should not have to be hearing over and over again it was not her fault because it's not -- it's retraumatizing for not only the family, but the entire community. i stand with jessica, and i pray that each and every one of

you can. [applause] >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> good evening, esteemed members of the san francisco board of supervisors. my name is jor galviz. i'm here to stand in solidarity with the family to demand justice for jessica alba. as it's already been mentioned, san francisco has a legacy that was build on greed, gold, and genoc genocide, that's built on the murders of indigenous people you have an opportunity to make amends beginning with justice for jessica. it didn't take a rocket scientist to know that this was

not a suicide. this was a young woman who was thriving in this community. she had a network, she was a leader. she has photos with mayor london breed. she was active in her community, she was active in transmitting that culture and teaching that culture to her children. there was absolutely no reason why this woman would take her life. i speak from my experience. when i was three years old, i witnessed my father trying to kill my mother. i violence i experienced i ended up reproducing on the streets of the mission district, so i was incarcerated when i was 17 years old. we have to think about the ram a fications for her children. she's an ancestor now, so we're

going to pray for each one of you to make the right decision so that you don't have blood on your hands. >> president yee: thank you. next speaker. >> the overhead, please. tom gilberti. the city just lost a great person. i hope the full board steps behind president yee as he introduces this back into our police department, our district attorney. let's get some justice here.

i also hope that what happens on 4/20, that we have a lax, julax, -- lab, just in case some s sat -- sadist decides to spike the weed. 11% labor, 11% legal, 5% administrative, 4% commercial residential users, we can have a better pg&e instead of people that are just trying to make money. navigation center, i heard about it, my district, 2.5 weeks after it was announced; and the first thing i thought of was lowell, lowell high

school. let's make this so great so that people want to get here, that people in other navigation centers, we can move here. it's a step up. the monkey in the room, the elephant in the room, drugs, you can be a drug addict and be allowed to live there, but you can't shoot there, you can't use there. i ask that officers around the beat and other beats face it. we know where they are within ten days, but it's a sanctuary city, and there are immigrants that are doing the selling, and that's the d.a. >> president yee: okay. thank you. next speaker. >> good evening honorable norman yee, president of the board of supervisors, ladies and gentlemen of the board of supervisors.

my name is marlon johnson herrera sanchez, and i was here several times about a year ago, asking you, begging you, beseeching you to please ask the mayor and -- mark farrell, who was the mayor at the time, to help me apply for one of the housing units under the housing authority, one of those units that are now boarded up and sit empty so that we could move into one of our units and live there because all five of us are currently living on the streets. all five of us have been long

time residents of the city of san francisco. i came here when i was 13 or 14, 1980-81. dianne feinstein was the mayor. there were very few homeless. and then, along came frank jordan, and then art agnos, and jerry brown, and now newsom, and then mayor lee and now mayor london breed. i want to talk to the mayor about a plan. i have --

[inaudible] >> president yee: thank you. thank you, sir. next speaker, please. [inaudible] >> president yee: thank you. >> hi. my name's norm sands, yaqui and apache out of tempe, arizona. some people like to speak. i don't. my knees are shaking, but i'm here to stand in justice for

jessica. in my culture, we believe that everyone is related and we honor the sacred and protect it. i ask that cindy go to bed tonight, thinking about her sons. i ask you, that you go to bed thinking of jessica tonight. [applause] >> president yee: are there any other speakers in public comment? i have a question for my fellow supervisor, supervisor brown. when you spoke earlier ask the d.a. to investigate, is that a formal request or just a statement? >> supervisor brown: no. i would like to ask d.a. gascon to investigate because the police have just pushed it

aside. i think cintilla's the top cop, and he should be investigating. >> president yee: and i said i would join you in this, and if others later want to join, let her know. okay? thank you. where are we? supervisor walton? >> supervisor walton: thank you, president yee. aside from reaching out to the d.a. for investigation, we do need to follow up with the chief of police and the police department because we cannot let them off the hook in terms of investigation. you have a commitment from me to do that, as well as reaching out to the d.a.'s office, so i just want that notes, as well. >> president yee: okay.

supervisor ronen? >> supervisor ronen: yes. i just wanted to thank jessica's friends and family for coming out today. last year, i created an office in san francisco that takes cases like this, whether the police don't believe a crime of sexual harassment. i want you to know that we are this close to getting this office up and running. there's about three unbelievable candidates to run this office be and the strong advocates that we need in the city. every time i hear a case like this, it just pains me that this office is not up and running. i just want you to know that we're close, your coming here and speaking to us is so effective and so moving and we're going to be here with you

and fight with you. >> president yee: so i've just been informed that we're -- this is not on the agenda and it's my fault. i started it. so i need to end this discussion on this, and if we have a hearing on this, we could have a more polished discussion around this issue. >> supervisor peskin: mr. president, if i could just rise to a point of information which is that we could reopen roll call insofar as -- we can't respond to public comment, but there is something that supervisor brown spoke to, and i think the proper way to do this is is that by noon tomorrow, under an introduction form if the clerk of the board is willing, from the board of

supervisors to the district attorney, so i think supervisor brown, you have until noon tomorrow -- and actually, we don't even have to reopen roll call. i just wanted to rise to a point of information, and i would be happy to join you in that. [applause] >> president yee: okay. thank you very much, so i'm going to end the discussion for this. and we're -- i'm sorry, where am i? okay. i think we're -- madam clerk, can you call the items for adoption without committee reference? >> clerk: items 37 through 40 compromise the items for adoption from committee. any supervisor my require a resolution to go to committee. >> president yee: would any of my colleagues like to sever any items? supervisor fewer? >> supervisor fewer: yes, please, president yee, i'd like to sever item number 37. >> president yee: 37.

okay. madam clerk, i guess we could just go ahead and take the other items, 38, 39, 40, same house, same call? >> clerk: that's correct, mr. president. >> president yee: okay. without resolution, these items are adopted unanimously. madam clerk, could you call item 37. >> clerk: item 37 is a resolution to adopt state bill 857 to allow local government to apply for a state banking charter to establish a public bank. >> president yee: okay. supervisor fewer. >> supervisor fewer: thank you, president yee. colleagues, the san francisco oakland legislative bodies are all voting on resolutions today supporting assembly bill 857, the public banking act. bypassing these the cities of

oakland, san francisco, and los angeles will provide a pathway for a municipal charter for public banks. it would allow municipalities to redirect public funds from large corporate banks that invest in fossil fuels, private prisons towards publicly -- [inaudible] >> supervisor fewer: for a public banking model provides incredible opportunity for local governments and their residents. we should maximize our tax dollars by investing in priorities that reflect our values like affordable housing and neighborhood based small businesses. there is no question about it, public banking is an idea whose time has come. thank you to cosponsors supervisor shamon wallet ton, hillary ronen, and vallie brown for your support. i hope i have your support.

>> president yee: okay. thank you very much. i think supervisor mar left the room, so we need to have a roll call -- oh, i came back in? colleagues, can we have this same house, same call, without objection -- >> supervisor haney: i just wanted to be added as a cosponsor. >> clerk: okay. >> president yee: okay. without objection, this motion passes. madam clerk, please read the in memo memoryams. >> clerk: on behalf of supervisor manndelman on behal of the late ernie m. mastman,

and on a motion made by supervisor brown and ronen, on behalf of the entire board of supervisors for the late miss jessica nicolle alva. >> president yee: colleagues, that brings us to the end of our agenda. is there any other business before us today? >> clerk: that concludes our business for today. >> president yee: we are adjourned. the

april 16th, 2019 treasure island develop metal 30 and infrastructure community meeting item number 1 is called to order [roll call]. >> we do have a quorum. >> okay. it is another meeting of the treasure island infrastructure and infrastructure committee. again we would like to thank all of you that are in the audience, and those that are watching remotely, so we are glad to have you here today. thank you, by.

tonight. they complete the neighborhood that we are calling for. we have an amenity building which will be a beautiful clubhouse for all of the residents of the homeowners association, and then a courtyard town have a

northwesterly view towards the golden gate bridge. let me just see what is going on here.

oh, boy. one moment, i have another copy with me, let me try plugging that in. >> it maybe asked. hold on just one minute. let us try and sort this out, thank you. >> i'm in room 416 of treasure island and we are having media issues. i try to tried to log out and switch seats, and it has logged everything out, and the presentation is no longer working, but the live feed seems to be on.

yes.

>> okay. , okay, thank you. >> so these images we saw last night, so i will move ahead to the townhomes. just to orient ourselves, mccullough road is to the north here, it connects the offramp of the bay bridge to treasure island road, and treasure island then would be off to our upper left here. this is the intersection of the

road and mccullough road, and off europe wayne a we will have a private drive with three-story townhomes on the north side of north side of the street and south side at this location, and then we have two buildings that will be stacked flat, so these are four-story buildings. each floor has two units per floor with a penthouse on top, and then we have more three-story townhomes toward the podium entry, and a beautiful turnaround plaza that kind of terminates the road at the podium. this is a view looking from hilltop park down on before why neighborhood. as you can see, all of these townhomes will have beautiful views of treasure island, the bay bridge, and east bay. we will go through a couple of

their prototypical building types. this is our traditional four unit three-story townhome building. we are trying to maximize the views and really provide an indoor-outdoor living experience for all of the residents. grand terraces, beautiful balconies with french doors that open up onto the view and connect to you with nature. the materials of the buildings will be stucco, a painted thin brick, and some accents of metal panel and stone. we are varying all of the garage doors along the street to provide more of a single-family home feel and make each unit feel very individual. these are a bit hard to read, but the units are approximately

3,000 square feet. they're mostly three-bedroom, three and a half bath. typically, depending on the topography, you enter from your garage, to living, kitchen, dining, primarily, there are a few cases where you will enter to a master suite and go up one level to the living, kitchen, and dining, and then we have a floor with, you know, usually two bedroom suites to provide the three bedrooms total. and then these units all have rooftop terraces as well. most of the units on this parcel also have individual elevators, so we are really looking to provide aging in place and allowing people to stay in these homes forever. the stacked flats building, as i mentioned, are four-story.

this provides a very unique experience where you take an elevator from the parking garage to your floor, and the elevator opens right into your unit so there is no corridor, nothing, it really feels very much like a single-family home even though you are in a building with seven other neighbours. again, huge terraces with gorgeous views and a lot of fenestration and doors opening up to nature. similar material pallet with stucco, metal panel and a little bit of stone at the base. the two buildings are connected, and will be permitted as one, so you enter the garage, the first story garage off the private road four, and enter your

elevator to go up to your unit. all of the living and kitchen and dining are in the corners, again, with the sliding doors that just open out, so it is very much indoor outdoor living experience. the three why townhomes are also a unique product type. we are building them around a central courtyard, so we called these the courtyard units. very modest front door along signal road. this is looking down on the parcel -- actually, this is looking down on one why from the hilltop park. this is looking at three from hilltop park. single-story along single road where you pull into a garage, and then have sort of a portal entry that takes you down a set of stairs to a lower courtyard

level. all of these units have just spectacular views of the city skyline and the bay bridge. and elevation looking from -- looking back at the hillside, and looking east at the backs of the homes, so again, these have cascading terraces, grand terraces on each level to capture the views. we have a community stair that runs between the two buildings, and disconnects hilltop park all the way down to the water tank access trail and provides ferocity to the neighborhood and allows a beautiful trail network to intersect with the residential neighborhoods for everyone to enjoy. same material pallet. the stucco, metal panel, painted brick and stone, and again, on

these units, on the lowest level , you have your master suite with a grand terrace and sitting room, and then above that, you have your living, kitchen, and dining that is on this lower courtyard level, and an in law suite underneath the garage on the street level, so wonderful for a larger family or to be used as a guesthouse. master suite, this is the lowest level. the clubhouse, i should have mentioned too, the other night, but our design architect for all of the residential is hard howard ten, and we are working with bde architects is our executive architect. on the amenity building, we are working with darling as our design architect to provide a

little bit of variety to the island, and we've gone a little more, you know, classic modern, if you will, on the townhomes, and we have gone, you know, for more, a real modern look with darling for the clubhouse. the design idea behind the clubhouse is sort of these floating volumes, and to provide strata from the lowest level, which has a small and locker room and steam rooms and sauna, to a fitness level, and entry at grade, and then above that is the social space with a lounge, library, private dining. so the lowest level -- the materials are very solid and

representative of the earth, and then we move to a really activated ground plane at grade, to a more airy and social space with lots of spacing above. so this is the corner view, showing the back of the fitness centre. we have been working quite a bit with planning on this to provide both activation at the street and allowing people at the park to be able to see activity within the building, and also provide some screening and some privacy for those using the space, and especially at the yoga and pilates studios at the corner here. to be able to provide a serene environment from the interior, but also activate the street from the exterior. this is a view looking back east at the building. we have an expensive pool deck with a lap pool, a hot tub, and

the whole social fireplace gathering area. looking at the plans, actually, i will start at the reception, you come in at the street level into a reception area, you head into a vestibule that has an all glass façades are you immediately get a few out across the pool deck to the city. the fitness centre, as i was describing, and yoga studio. all of this has a lower garden area. both the sauna and the studio look out into this so that we are anticipating this will be more of a zen -like garden. again, a full regulation length lap pool, deck, we have added a hot tub, and fireplace seating area. on the top level, again, you come up the stairs, we have a game room with large screen t.v.

, pool tables, et cetera for parties, a lounge and bar area for social gatherings and a library for a bit more of a contemplative space. private dining to the east with a full catering kitchen and then some phone booths in the back so if anyone makes -- needs to take a call while at the party their quiet spaces as well. and then going back down to the lowest level, we have a his and hers locker room and steam so they have separate steam rooms and sauna rooms. there's also a stair that connects you to the outside say don't have to go in through the front door to get to the locker rooms or to access the fitness. you can come in the side entry as well. here we have a very significant grade change from the road at the top down to the tank access

road. to give you a sense of scale, the drop from the road to the private road three is about 70 feet, so the buildings are in filling the old water tank, and so these buildings are only one story at grade on the road and they drop down seven stories to meet grade at private road three it off possess a unique experience where we have the stacked flats on the top level that are very similar to the other flats, and then we've lined the lower level at the street with two story townhomes. we are really able to provide multiple product types. buildings eight and nine a are very similar to the stacked flats on four, and all of the other buildings are the three story townhomes. the front buildings, one, two,

three, of double height living spaces, so you come in to the mezzanine level, and you look out to the sweeping views down into your living space. we then are also providing a few single-family home lots as well on the site to allow full diversity of housing types. this is looking down mccullough road and up into one of the private drives on one. looking back up the hill. the grades are quite significant , and this was a whole discussion, actually, with the fire department. we could into loop the roads to provide the right turning truck because the grades in the turns were so steep, so we have truck turnarounds for fire, so we have used those areas to celebrate

views and create plazas so that they are making more of a public space rather than having it read as a utilitarian truck turnaround. here are some views looking at the stacked flats, and this gives you a sense of the terrace of the hillside. very similar to the south of france or to italy where you just have buildings cascading down the hillside. same material pallets. these units especially will have quite a bit of glazing on the west façade, so we are also exploring different sustainable techniques with glass, whether we do photo chromatic, or we do shades or something, to kind of help with solar heat gain and

with glare, but i think it will offer a really exciting opportunity to design the glass to be able to allow for views and also keep the solar heat gain down. all of these buildings are elevator -- have elevators as well. a similar layout where you have living, kitchen, dining on one floor, a master suite level, and then a floor of bedrooms and bathrooms. this is exemplary of what the view would be from your terrace looking out, and again, you have sweeping views of the city skyline and frontal views of the golden gate bridge. the three and four townhome parcels, we are anticipating starting construction on those in november of this year, so we will start all the grading work then, and stan january and february start the building

construction. those buildings are anywhere from 11 months to 14 months of construction, so a bit shorter of a time period on the podium by about a year, and our goal is to really be able to sell a complete neighborhood when we begin. so the townhomes adjacent to the podium will be constructed first , and then it will open at the same time and be ready for sale at the same time as the podium so that we have a complete neighborhood, and we are bringing the amenity building on within a few months of those first homes, so we will have basically all of the community spaces available to residents from day one. >> thank you. >> yes. >> okay. thank you so much. that was an extensive, comprehensive presentation, it

really shows we are moving forward here. i am going to go to my commissioners to ask questions, but basically, we can come back to that. i would like to have a presentation on the types of materials we are using for the buildings, and i know you mentioned quite a few during your presentation. i was looking at the roofing, and maybe another discussion, we would like to -- i could not tell what types of roofing there is. they seem to be generally flat, and how we are treating that. so with that in mind, we will come back to that, let's see here. >> i have a few questions and then i have some comments, but are you going to be designing these standards? tell me about the sustainability

issues with the building. >> yes. the podium project is being billed to greenpoint rated standards, and all of the homes are gold standard at least. we maybe able to exceed that. we are providing solar pv everywhere. we are -- we will be charging ready all of the townhomes, and i can go ahead and answer the roof questions, too, because it also applies, but all of our roofs are the cool roofs. it is a light coloured material, where people are looking down on the roofs below, we putting a light coloured ballast. so we are really -- we are treating the roof as a fifth façade so that it is both aesthetically beautiful and also is -- doesn't provide a lot of heat gain, and then all of the

rooftop terraces are clad with pavers, so it is a very intentionally designed space, but, yes, a lead for gold on the homes and green foot rated on the podium. >> thank you for that. and then can you tell us a little bit about any issues that you have encountered at the planning department? i understand with the fire department. >> the planning department has actually been a fabulous partner with us. i would say our biggest design challenges have been to maintain the view, to keep everything underneath the view cone, we have had some challenges with how we interpret height measurement, because of the significant grade change, it is impossible to have 25 feet on one side and 35 feet on another because the grades are too steep , which i don't think were realized when the design for

development was written, so we worked with the planning department to interpret the height measurement the same as you would anywhere in the city from back of curb up, so we've gone from back of curb up 35 feet, and stepped back 1-1, so it allows the envelope to be more flexible if we take it from the street and not from the building edge. so all of our buildings comply with the height with that interpretation, so we worked with john ram to develop that, or to confirm, really how we were doing it, and they've really been wonderful. they are, of course, most concerned about how we are activating the street friends and how we are designing for the public realm with a lot of street trees and gracious planting.

there's been an active conversation about the retaining walls on one because we do have to have retaining walls, but we are, you know, collectively working on the most elegant, you know, execution possible for those and heavily planted so that it really feels like a beautiful space, you know, and use it as a good design opportunity. >> i would just say that i appreciate your update on the design of the buildings on yerba buena island. i would say, from my viewpoint, you, as the private developer, are most motivated to build what you can best market for the highest amount, and from our end , what i'm interested in is really the public realm, and in fact we hope you are enormously successful because certainly the income that will come, the fees that will be paid, are the

revenue source, which we will have to depend on for doing the public realm development. >> absolutely. >> the things that are important to us, of course, the open space in the parks. i understand we are going to have a report today on that. it is also about the public access, the public infrastructure, which is important far -- for the safety of the residents who will be there, including the utilities, the water, the stormwater systems. we want them to be absolutely the cutting edge in technology now, and so i'm very glad to see that you've incorporated those sustainable elements into your design for the private homes, because that is in keeping with our goals for the islands, but we really are about between yerba buena and treasure island to, about building a whole community, a diverse community.

this developments on yerba buena island represents the market rate, represents the high end, but in fact, we are building a whole range at treasure island as well. >> absolutely. >> to the extent that you're successful, we will then be able to really do what is the public charge of motivation here, which is to build affordable housing. all the more power to you. i certainly am not going to get involved in your decisions about colours and, you know, cladding, i think that is your decision as the private developer to make, and you will be motivated to build these as beautifully as you can given the type of markets that you are trying to persuade to buy, and it is a new community at treasure island, so it is a tremendous challenge, i

understand that because we are building a whole new neighborhood, not all of the amenities are yet going to be there when the yerba buena island side is finished, but hopefully, together with treasure island development authority and u.s. the private developer, we will be able to build out the whole community. thank you for your update today. >> so -- >> thank you. first of all, i really appreciate the sensitivity and trying to preserve the hilltop views, that is definitely a long-term public goods that we would be very interested in preserving, and also in the design sensitivity around stepping retaining walls and minimizing them, and making sure it is a pleasant environment, sort of a related question about the street design, i recall that
