any other public comment? >> okay, seeing none, we will open rebuttal and you have three minutes. >> thank you, members of the board. the primary point that i want to make is that my clients don't oppose the mexican mu museum and it is an interesting strategy for the developer to align with a worthy cause with the museum because the developer can stay in the background while the eloquent and worthy allies of the development make the case for the developer. but let's not forget that the developer stands to make at least $120,000 million by his own economic analysis estimate. as far as shadow is concerned, this is not really a legal argument and more of a public relations issues that have been raised the transbay project and the transit center project had seven buildings with 0.19 percent to allocate between them which is less than 0.03 each and this is one building, 0.06 and so in terms of one building, occupying or causing shadow, on this park, it dwarfs any of the other buildings in the transit center project

so, if you look at any legislative analysis, any stand or support or oppose [speaker not understood], you can guarantee that item has gone through the state legislation committee process. the second part of your question, commissioner, was, then, how does the city's lobbyist in sacramento then follow through on those recommendations. the mayor's office retains the services of a lobbyist in san francisco to advocate for those items that have been considered and acted on by the state legislation committee. so, that is a very clear direction that the city now has an official position of support or oppose and it gives all lobbyists then clear direction as to what we'd like to see happen in sacramento whenever they might be asked. how does the city feel about x or y. it's very clear and transparent. currently our lobbyist in sacramento is the firm shaw yoder antwee. communication with lead advocate paul yoder and provide input from other city department, city staff. while we do have single [speaker not understood] designated to be our key point of contact, we have multiple advocates from t

is there any other public comment? commissioners? any questions, comments? >> i want to thank the staff and appreciate the effort that's gone into this as we probably heard this over and over again where we're doing great things and trying to figure out how to pay for them often sometimes after the fact. but -- and i'll say this. in this situation i think one thing echoed and i'm sure my colleagues all agree, this is not something we want to undermine any of the incredible hard work that's gone into creating a spectacular new facility in our new cruise ship terminal. essential my sense has been that was never anything intended and it's actually not naming rights nor is it a place taking. but i think we concur with those concerns, but i don't think that that is something that we have contemplated or anyone has contemplated, but this is really an opportunity to acknowledge the work that people have done to make so much happen in our city, to thank people that have made things happen and to really acknowledge what allows us to move forward with creative and bea

any of the staff? i had one question. i mean, i guess when you're saying a dramatic increase in activity, is it that -- what does that mean, is that there's more street life, the venues are more full, i'm not seeing as many incidents on this list as we have in the past, so to me, that's great, if a lot more is happening and fewer instances are being reported. >> without giving any bias or any direction, i'm saying there are more people attending the nightclubs and in general, any time that you do a resurgence of anybody, you're going to have some growing pains so we're experiencing that in the city right now. i kept this list short intentionally, i didn't want to sum up the whole month because there was a lot of stuff and it would make it look like things were just a little bit out of control and i don't think that that would be appropriate. >> okay. any other thoughts, comments? no? alright. thank you very much, staff. we're going to move on to -- oh, public comment on -- >> and then the police depart

a world where employment doesn't mean there's any work or any money. you have a job but you don't know when you'll if you'll be paid that's the reality for a million brits employed on zero hours contracts donald says admitted that it employs ninety percent of its u.k. workforce in this way stuff are expected to be ready for work in the mornings in case best summoned by their bosses they also have the right to refuse shifts crucially though there's no guaranteed minimum set of working hours per week hence the zero and that's why this man in his twenty's is almost zero hours contract with a well known restaurant chain every morning he waits for the call telling him whether or not he'll have work. as it were you working there to be able to. make that much profit this week so actually we're trying to stuff as we can you guys can all be cut and we'll just do it on three stuff this week is complete and for the government has promised to investigate the controversial employment amidst concerns that leaving an increasing number of brits in financial limbo with
