public comment. please step to the podium. >> david elliot louis, commenting strictly for myself as a resident of the tenderloin. i technically live in the northern precinct but i suffer the problem of the precinct. i live in the corner of larkin and valero and there is a honduran rock cocaine that are there. when gang members had a stay away order from the tenderloin they stayed on the larkin street. i don't know if that worked for them. somehow the dealers persisted. this is dealing right across from a community playground. it's a huge public safety issue. i was hoping that by maybe moving the western boundary of tenderloin out to van mess, that could help solve the problem certainly enforcing both sides of the streets of the tenderloin precinct is a huge help but i'm still going to advocate and hope that commissioners move the boundary to van ness. that will be helpful to giving the tenderloin the precinct power to deal with persistent drug dealing along with the western border. again, speaking as
