that could be placed on the agenda of the next meeting and other future meetings of the building inspection commission. our next regular meeting is on june 19th. >> unless -- sorry, mr. walker, please. >> i realize that this is ongoing to reschedule the joint commission, but it is a priority that we find out as soon as possible and have the meeting as soon as possible so that we can effectively communicate with each other about, especially that issue of demolition and all of those things related that we will have on the agenda. i really just want to support you being aggressive with that. >> yeah, and i know commissioner watson, did you want to leave any comments? >> yeah, my concern on this is we have, as a department, been responding to the information we've gotten from the supervisors and expressing what our concerns are with the proposals that have been presented, and that is wonderful , and i understand the department and the responses have been very well received by supervisors who have been working on this, however, one of my biggest concerns is, you know , just how proactive we are in coordina

[roll call] >> very good. commissioners, we have one item, item one for case 218-02728 for the controlled demolition merger conversion and alterations. this is an informational meeting. >> before you start, i wanted to go through for a couple of things of how this is going to go this morning. good morning and welcome to our commissioners. i missed many of you. so what we are going to try to do is have -- this is a very complicated piece of legislation, and folks have a lot of opinion about the different aspects of it. we, the president mccarthy and i, want to give as much time to the public to opine. so with that being said, we only have a limited time. so what i'm going to ask first is that there is going to be times after each section that staff can pause and allow for commissioner questions. i beg my fellow commissioners to ask questions of clarification only. let's leave the comments to the end. so please keep your questions short and succinct, so we can allow everyone to ask questions for clarification, a

we have angus mccarthy, the president of the building inspection commission. we have mary ellen carroll, the director of the department of emergency management, and joel coppel, with the planning commission. ok. so, i'm going to ask a very important question and we are just going to go straight down the line, and let's just get straight to it. what do you think is the most important task we can do to strengthen building performance? >> now i'm on. two areas we could do. i can't do just one. the first one is we could improve the repair time numbers that he showed on the screen earlier, changing how we design tall building, affect that by reducing drips and things like that, one piece. but i think the larger effort could be on those impeding factors to reduce that time, where the majority of the down time comes from. improving the program and things of that nature will facilitate quicker recovery times and getting back in the building. >> so for me, i think because we at d.m. are responsible for the safety assessment program and the coordination and resourcing f
