. >> good afternoon commissioners, kather howard sf ocean edge. sfoceanedge.org and i have comments, unlike dennis, i don't think you will like them, but what the heck. we understand that funding is a continuing problem for the department and the department is now invashon island in two legal actions the appeal to the california coastal commission and the ceqa lawsuit in superior court over the beach chalet fields. if the department would consider the hybrid alternative for the fields it would save a great deal of money for the department. i don't know how much you paying the city attorney, but i think we can all agree this would be money better spent on trees, not on paper for legal briefs. that having been said, i do support increased general funding for the rec and park department and have i signed a letter to the mayor to that regard and i hope we can all work together for this. thank you. x thank you. >> anyone else wishing to make public comment? being none, public comment is closed of the commissioners. >> we need a mosto approve the budget
