hok scheme and we were able to incorporate a number of new ideas into the design of the transit center. of course, the signature park that is central to the pelly proposal and also a number of energy conservation measures that allowed us to move from the initial target of lead silver to lead gold and the vision that pelly had brought to the competition to the design of the transit center. at that time, we were maintaining the cost estimated cost of construction within the original $1.89 budget through a number of valuing engineering measures both with pelly clark pelly as well as osha working as the cmgc. and we moved into natural ventilation and eliminated a glass enclosure that was to go around the perimeter of the bus boarding island. we reduced the number of skylights at the park level from five to three which opened up more program space in the park for landscape space but, through the use of tubes that the architect had proposed still bringing significant natural lighting to the bus deck level. we had refined the design of the structural system as well as the park landscaping and

activities was to go through what we called a concept validation phase where we would contrast the hok scheme with the work being developed by the architect pelly clark pelly to identify any discreptcies in scope and cost and to reconcile those before we moved into the scheme matic design. >> and so as we moved into the budget and to revise it there were a number of miles stones that we went through. may of 2008, we awarded the contract pelly clark pelly to be the architect and set forth the design schedule at that point which included the concept validation phase that i discussed which was going to be our first four months of work with the architects. moving into the schemeatic design and completing the construction documents in 2011. in september of 2008, we completed the concept validation phase. reconciling the pelly proposal, and the design proposal with the base line budget and. hok scheme and we were able to incorporate a number of new ideas into the design of the transit center. of course, the signature park that is central to the pelly proposal and also a number of energy cons

ad-hok was in the beastie boys, right? here is the thing. think this whole argument is going to be irrelevant. it is like talking about computers before the internet came along. what is a drone, bill? when it gets small and you can get a drone license, we are all going have our own drone. is a drone a gun or a tank? we haven't decided this. >> i think if you look at yourself in the mirror you will find a drone is a part of you. the drone is in all of you. they already have tiny ones the size of a bug. soon those will be lethal killing things anyways. it had nothing to do with the drones. they don't care about the drones. they love beak on cspan and getting their time to shine and constituents seeing them ask tough questions. >> and they don't care about oversight. five weeks ago these same people could have voted on an amendment to ask the administration in order to authorize the amendment act of 2008 and asked them, can you please show me your legal rational for this? >> they voted against the legal rational. they don't care about oversight

line budget and the cost estimates that under layed it were based on the design scheme developed by hok. which is very consistent wi
