mr. willis. it demonstrates that i've made every attempt to reach compromise with mr. willis but he chose to fight me. commissioners, i do feel it is necessary to set the public record for the commission on one important matter. i never agreed to support this project. you can imagine my anger when i come across the document that mr. willis submitted to you stating that i did. you don't need to ask or take my word for it. one of two occasions, he admitted that this was false. once at a meeting at his own architect's office on may 10, attended by five people in this very hearing room. please note that that meeting was left out on the north neighborhood time line. actions like this have made it quite difficult to reach an accord. on a positive note, mr. willis and i do agree on one thing, and probably one thing only -- this whole matter is best left in the able hands of this commission. if left to me i would eliminate the six-foot overhang and cut back much of the penthouse footage that's adjacent to the light well that's so important to my renters. i leave this to you and
