i live in district 2 and i urge you to vote yes to extend lake street as a slow street. i've lived on lake almost 10 years. i do drive a car and i have suffered no inconvenience. i use california street or geary boulevard instead of lake street. i feel that the people who are opposing keeping lake as a slow street are really just -- i don't feel their concerns are all that valid. they seem to be around parking or misstating that the street is permanently closed, when the only change is it's not considered a thoroughfare. crossing lake street, i've almost been hit several times by speeding drivers prior to it being a slow street. looking out my window, i see kids playing in the street. i see people walking their dogs. i see lots of people getting their exercise in. i feel that a lot of people really do support lake street being a slow street and really enjoy it. you know, people on my block get deliveries all the time. there is no problem with the deliver vehicles accessing buildings. it seems to me that arguments against it are not really strong. >> 30 seconds. >> one th
