paina has gotten one. so paina has operated for 1 hour and sundance for hundreds. i was there last night. if you can look down here, this is what was going on last night. this phone call that has been installed throughout the entire sealing and the wall behind the audience. the event last night had 50 easels set up with blank canvasses. paina happily gave the space for free and the artist instructor took home 100 percent of what each student paid to learn that evening. it was a great venue. this you for your time. >> thank you. >> hi. my name is beth crumb a. i'm a college student. paina is a great place for everyone whether they are black, white, gay. college students or kids and working professionals can enjoy. everyone that comes to paina feels safe and relaxed. it's a great place for diversity and acceptance. thank you. >> good afternoon, my name is ruby, i'm a parent and special need local worker. i meet there regularly and i do notice many students, all special needs come because they are ada accessible. it's a great place. i wholeheartedly support them, than

i'm just learning that paina provides all of the above. i would encourage the opening of paina and as a small business they would be able to contribute, their willingness, their big heartiness towards all of that. the other thing, my mother is in the audience, she can not speak for all with people with disabilities. i'm a classical musician and i wanted to bring the opera and symphony people. they are from my community and they are more than welcome to have us perform them as well. i'm there is mother of children in their 30s. they love the wholesome place. i'm also attracting people as a member of the community for people to hang out. i have a wonderful time there to eat before i go to the movies. it's a wonderful place and i think sundance is attracting a lot of business from that too. i'm a great supporter of paina and want to see them viable and a contribution to japan town. >> thank you. >> thank you. honorable commission ers, i'm martin simon and here on behalf of sundance cinema which you know is a neighbor to this project. this com
