any public comment? part of this is about this is a permitting question and whether they should be given access to the appeal's process to point made earlier about how invasive this project is going to be, whether tenants will be temporarily displaced, for example, whether it meets the criteria outlined by the dbi, this project is scheduled to take eight to nine months. now if that's daily, eight to nine months and goes with the loss of services, even if temporary that have been outlined, water turn-offs, electricity turn-offs, i think the tenants of our billion ought tbuildingought to have the abilo make an appeal. these adu projects seem to fit in an odd space considering how long and invasive they can be. just to answer a question that was brought up previously, i originally sent the email to kelly dixon, who was a regional manager in charge of our building for green tree property management. it was dated 2/14/2019. to start a conversation about the soft story retrofit, because that's the first thing

this is not everything we did not want to have any confusion or any kind of conflict for the employees fresh food tends to be open at 6:00, but they can sell alcohol until seven. even if we open at seven, two hours is a little bit of a gap in between for the local community. for some people, they do buy alcohol in the morning. some stores, most of the stores open at 6:00, but we don't. we open at seven and that is a reason why there would be no problems with this or confusions >> great. all right. i don't see any comments or questions from my colleagues. thank you. it appears that we have some public comment. i am seeing john mccormick and shelley dyer and anyone else who would like to speak can line up over here on the right side. i am going to say a few things about public comment before he let you start. speakers have two minutes. we as he state your first and last name and speak directly into the microphone. if you have prepared a written statement, you encourage -- you are encouraged to leave it with the committee clerk. no applause or booing is permitted. in the interest of time,

and that is reflected any better spell. do not know what we are going to see any couple of days. —— that is reflected in the birth as well. it is certainly not the big announcement that we saw with prince william and catherine. when they appeared on the steps of the wing, the private maternity hospital in london after the birth of prince george and prince charlotte. i was there reporting on both of those parts and again with prince louis as well. —— reporting on both of those births. prince harry has made no secret of the fact that he wanted to become a father and he wanted to find that special someone festival and then become a father and now, but any space of a couple of years, the things that he wanted have clearly co m e the things that he wanted have clearly come to pass. he has made meghan markle, now the duchess of sussex, very quickly, if you months after the wedding, then i said that he baby was on the way and everyone could see plain as day his absolute delight, his sheer delight at sharing that news with the publ

if you have any, we can make them now or of course at any time. >> i have some comments. we meet once every two months. why aren't we meeting once a month? >> so i wouldn't recommend doing that because i don't think that the bonds change that much. >> the bonds don't, but the performance audits do, and the other general audits do. there's enough that we have to kind of rush through a lot of stuff on a once-every-two-months schedule, so i think it would make more sense if it was once a month. that's my view. >> i know. mine is the opposite. >> yeah. >> i'm with you. >> we were trying to simplify the content and meet some of the scheduling challenges that you all have experienced. and i think standardized templates will help with this some, as well. it'll be a little less confusing to try to figure out what's being shown in the presentations, so this was some of our thinking and discussion about it. >> and just -- i know there's nothing in the administrative code or anything else. i know of no other body with oversight in the city that meets only once every two months, and

that is for any public.here is a grey area from doing the right thing or being, like you say, the extortion part. we all get it. as long as you have your policy, as long as you are doing your part, i don't think we always stay on the side we should stay on the side of a more neutral fact we are trying to run a small business. payment i it is very -- payments evident you don't want to meet with these people and there is only so much we can do as an operator, too. i know you are stressed out about it. there was a slip in management. there was a time when you were doing something else. now that you are back on board, i don't think we will have as much issues, i'm hoping as what we had before. good job, just have your policies and talk to the new management at gaylord. i mean as long as you are doing that, i don't think anybody can hold you in contempt. >> thank you. i appreciate that. >> i think we are almost done here. i think that the reason that at least i wanted -- and i didn't request it. i wanted to talk

so it's not a any consensus but that is exactly the problem a couple of countries in our region. plus israel did not like the nuclear deal from the very beginning the rest of the international community believe that it is a unique historic achievement for diplomacy of course if you had other intentions if you wanted to securitize iran if you wanted to portray iran as a threat which it wasn't then that would have been different and you did not like the nuclear deal and some in our region where of that nature but just look at history who supported saddam hussein who when it invaded iraq who supported the taliban when they took over on the stuff. who supported al kut who supported isis who supported nasir who is now interfering in libya who is now interfering in the sudan just look at the realities on the ground is it iran it was iran who killed who tried to suffocate qatar who tried to wage a coup in turkey who dismembered a journalist who beheaded thirty seven individuals and crucified one of them in the street just look at the realities on the ground you don't need to look at the
