my my name is raquel fox and i'm one of the attorneys at the tenderloin housing clinic and i'm here to oppose the project on a number of levels. first i'm a native san franciscan and have seen the changes in the city and open space is critical. sunshine is critical. the kids that are going to be there playing, the seniors that utilize that park to stretch to do yoga, need the sunlight. sunlight is critical. i think not only to physical well-being, but your spirit and mental well-being. i wanted to respond to mr. patterson, the attorney -- first of all, the protest that took place at the shoe store had to do with the ellis evictions and had nothing to do with this project at all. it had to do with the eviction of senior and disabled and people critically ill on palliative chemotherapy. so there is not a message here that the people that live in this area are involved in protesting the shoe store. the shoe store protest had to do with the ellis act evictions. just to summarize, i support the opposition to this project. thank you. >> thank you >> next speaker, please. >> good afternoon co
