if the project would cause overcrowding at a public facility and the overcrowding causes an adverse affect on people, the overcrowding would be regarded as a significant effect. hear, the planning department fails to consider whether an adverse affect on the neighbors caused by overcrowding due to the physical changes to the building is a significant effect. the department bases its analysis on the assumption that there will be 24 presidents. however, there is no such limitation bound in the application in the analysis under ceqa. my next point is that the mandatory findings of significant cumulative impact analysis, growth inducing impact analysis, were flawed and glossed over. in both the initial study and the final mitigated neg dec failed to take into account the impact in a special use district and increased density as well as performance of open space requirements. next, i would like to address a piece milling -- pieacemealing nature of the process, in that through this pre approval long process, you have a new way of approving projects in the city. you have grown so much money behin

ultimately, we think the issue of overcrowding is overstated. we go back to the legislative analyst's report, which essentially indicates that, right now, if we're going to increase service, all of that $6 million cannot be allocated to the young people who are riding the buses. we do not agree with the reports that indicate it will cost $13 million, instead of $6 million. secretary boomer: gloria estevas. >> [speaking spanish] >> thank you for having me. it is an important point to say that you have spent money harassing used for the police. this program would cost less than what you are currently planning -- currently paying the police department. >> [speaking spanish] >> i think it is more important for you to provide funding so that youth can get to school with freedom and get their education rather than be criminalize or punished by police. >> [speaking spanish] >> if you think with love and a sense of humanity, then you know that it is important for youth. they are our future. all of the mothers are here organized wanting this to happen. f
