chris jackson followed by john kaufmann, regina davis, james mccray jr. . i'll keep calling names. if you're in the other room, just keep coming in. gail gilman, elaine lugo. huroshi fakuda. >> my name is john kaufmann. thank you, commissioners, for listening to us this afternoon. there's no question about the need for housing for emancipated youth and there's no question about the important mission that booker t. washington center is embarking on. we support that. but there is a question about the compatibility of this project as it now stands with the neighbors. remember, the neighbors we've been talking about are on the block. they are the houses on the block. they are below, down the hill from the projects, so the impact of the project on them is greater than the 55 feet that the project currently stands. i also want to salute supervisor farrell for taking the initiative to try and put together a compromise that respects the need for emancipated youth housing, respects the mission of the agency, plus also respects the values of the neighborhood, the people that live on the bloc
