. >> my name is robert katz. i'm a neighbor living in excelsior. i would say when the neighborhood heard about the massage parlor opening, we were very disturbed because we've had some problems with existing existing massage establishments. so i attempted to convene a public meeting, which i did at the location described e.a.g., and i asked a proponent to come and meet with us and describe what was going to transpire and he did that and basically almost everyone with one or two exceptions that attended the meeting changed their attitude. almost everyone was either skeptical or strongly opposed to the idea of a massage thing. and we have a neighborhood safe group that's right adjacent to the location. they were starting a petition in opposition. the head of that safe group is now a supporter of this thing. and he's a very credible person. i'm here partly because he has limited english. there's a mutant opposition, which i think is based not on any facts because we haven't really -- we checked his references. we've gone back to the landlords in idaho
