deputy city attorney cheryl atoms? -- adams? the question is the amendment i offered here, how that differs from the amendments that were adopted this morning in committee. those amendments adopted this morning did not have a mutual agreement from the different parties that were involved in the agreement. >> i will ask charles sullivan to address that. >> the amendments were actually discussed and agreed upon by the developers. the point of what sherrill said earlier -- cheryl said earlier is that this was a contract. the board can condition approval of that contract. they cannot force the developer to address those -- to accept the changes. it would require that the developer consent to change the contract, ultimately. the question is are the changes being proposed something the developer would accept. if not, the board could pass a resolution approving an agreement that never enters into. supervisor avalos: since the developer has already accepted that agreement -- >> the developer discussed the changes introduced by president

our city attorney is cheryl adams. i've been advised we will get through public comment quickly and then we will come back to discussion of those amendments. let's open it up for public comment. >> if i could just make two final comments. first of all, thank you for the work. i know that not everyone in this room is going to agree that this agreement is where it needs to be. frankly, i do not think there's anyone on either side that wish is that all the provisions that are in here were in here. i know that the developer would probably have not referred to have considered putting these amendments into the development agreement. i know there are advocates for tenants who may not think this is enough. that said, again, i am a tenant in san francisco. this is a set of issues i've really struggled with, how to ensure that all of the folks that are currently living at park merced get to continue to live at park merced and continue to live the kind of life that we all want to live in san francisco. it's my absolute intent wit
