we have parks and recreation and additionally opened one of the new parks is the presidio. we only county open space and all of the developed land. we wanted to make certain that we get away from the standard and think about how we make certain that this is really usable. this example is one corner of the city and this is a great open space resources getting the numbers very high, but this is not necessarily a space that a lot of people use, so what we have developed is, falling on the existing road analysis -- where do we prioritize the acquisitions and renovation dollars? you have worked extensively on this so i think that this will be very familiar to you. the first is population density. what are the most dense neighborhoods? you see those with these colors here. where is the lowest income level throughout the city? and then concentration of youth, one second, this is not working. >> sometimes it takes a mantle of the graphics can you do the overhead? >> there you go. i don't know if you can see this too well. this is the concentration of the seniors and next, we looked

removing all those bus rounds and residents required to make good sense allows us to create 20 new parking spaces. we are removing 14 parking spaces from the south side on the yen a block and two additional spaces, but there is a net gain of four parking spaces in the neighborhood, and we are adding an area of eligibility for residents of the south side to make sure they can take advantage of the new spaces we are creating. the reason why we are here is because we need your approval of these traffic regulations so we can move forward with the grant. we need to start our design phase and know that we have a project so that we can continue forward. at the benefits 20,000 riders by improving the travel time reliability. right now, our travel times can vary anywhere from one to eight minutes. that is a seven-minute variation, and you can understand that that would lead us to have a hard time. we do think it will say travel times -- reduce travel times by about 1 to 3 minutes. multiple surveys have indicated that the liability and travel time are the no. 1 concerns of many customers, but it is
