it's livable. the photographs show that. it's relatively affordable. it's not decrepit or disheveled. an adu in a an existing dwelling unit will also be relatively affordable. affordability is a rational for the adu in an rh 1. it is difficult to understand how an affordable adu can be added to a building that does not exist. and since i have a little time, i' i'll show you the other handout. it's in the ordinance. it's also existing. the handouts say existing. it's very clear. that's the current handout, and i'd like to add one more thing since i have a little time. i did a public records request for the accessory dwelling units that either had permits or had permits that have been issued or permits that have been issued and have csc's. i got 159 total so far in the department. and there were -- of those 159, five are in the rh 1, but all of them, all 159 and the five in the rh 1 are existing structures. so this just does not seem in keeping were the intent of the adu law. i think the commission did a little too much, and we can talk about it some mor

when you make a livable city, you think about is it easy to get to work. can you walk to work or ride the bus or your bike? can you engage with your neighbors in your neighborhood, and this bay crest neighborhood allows that. the courtyard allows it for the residents itself, so i would ask you to please support the two tower design so we can maintain the sun coming through that courtyard. it's really important. where else can you hear birds chirping just outside of your window in our neighborhood? i don't think very many places, and it makes a big difference in our neighborhood. thank you. >> president hillis: thank you. >> jim osolino, voter at bay crest. i think of our courtyard as an open space where light and a nice breeze enters and makes our location as fresh as it can be, considering our location. i ask you to vote no on this project as it stands and request the developer mirror his changes to mimic our buildings and open it in the center which would create a good atmosphere and keep our building the same as it is now. thank you for considering. >>

having been to hong kong and singapore, which are much more dense cities they still feel livable and walkable and they have a combination of a lot of, from the time you land in the airport you see nothing but highrises but at the same time you still see trees and greenery and in singapore there's a sense of calm. we have to be realistic about the future and we always complain about traffic congestion but if people can live here, right, if we can actually build enough housing where people to live here you would take cars off the road like in those cities. surprisingly traffic isn't as bad as you think it would be. it's actually rush hour in singapore, it didn't bad. which was surprising considering how dense it is. we have to be creative and we have to think about a vision and we often think that we're only san francisco is in the situation that we're in and you could be other areas in the world where they've done it effectively. we know it can be done we have to believe it can be done and not let old thinking limit us from reaching the potential of our future. >> thank you. >> do i h
