. >> i am erin morse. thank you for hearing us today. i live on steiner and gross street. i have lived in the alamo square historic district for 24 years. i have lived there for 12 years. for the first six years, this was lovely. the park is a quiet place to live. we talk a lot about the croupier systems. we are dealing with the other noises, the brakes and the exhaust, going up and down hills. this sounds like a garbage truck going by. it does not have to do with the p a system. we find that this has been the commercial exploitation of the iconic view. our neighborhood has been turned into a fast-food stop for visitors to come take a picture and leave. we have the competing tour bus companies from outside of the state, and all the local buses. i noted that seven buses passed my home in a senior -- single hour. on a street where there is no bus line, seven buses will pass my street and this is not the high season. we have been a quiet neighborhood until the last couple of years. and just to reiterate how beautiful this is -- this would be one block of any part of the park,
