they determine the quantitative vaulqualities exposure, although this board can take and make a de novo determination on this issue. there is the exact same scenario up four more floors above this, so it is an exceptional and extraordinary circumstance. it is a matter to create more housing. i would ask this board not to continue something for something that's going to be housing stock in one way or the other. i think it's the best move for this board to approve it as a separate dwelling unit and allow rosina and her son to occupy it as quickly as possible. >> commissioner honda: so i just told you i'm willing to continue. i think if i vote this evening, i would be in support of the department. >> let's continue it. >> commissioner honda: that's what i was thinking. >> clerk: thank you. okay. we'll now hear from mr. sanchez. >> thank you. scott sanchez, planning department. it's good to know the board was still tough on variances. >> commissioner honda: it's commissioner fung. come on up, we have an empty seat up here. >> so to correct something that the appellant stated. it's incorrect

for those just joining us, we're live from the novo in los angeles. we're partnering with the human rights campaign to give lesbian, gay, by sexual, transgender and queer americans and their allies the chance to ask questions of the democratic presidential candidates. until recently, i mean, just think about it, an event like this, it would have been unthinkable. generations of people just like me, gay, lesbian, transgendered americans have been forced to live in silence for decades, unable to speak out, afraid to hold hands in public with the person we love, afraid to be ourselves at work because we don't have the same protections from discrimination. there have been so many brave members of our community who for decades and generations have risked their careers, have risked their lives and lost their lives in the fight for equality, not for special rights, but for equal rights. and here tonight we all stand on their shoulders and we benefit from their sacrifices. please join me welcoming south bend, indiana mayor pete buttigieg.
