. >> good afternoon, president fong, members of the commission, i'm jim rubin, rubin junius and rose, representing the owners of the stanford court. historically the stanford court was converted from apartments in 1968 by a fellow named cal rossi who is a very colorful developer back then. the attitudes about parking were pretty much precisely the opposite as they are today. and as a condition, i wasn't there, i didn't see it, but i assume there was some concern about parking. and they conditioned -- your predecessor commission conditioned the approval of the conversion of the apartment building into what became the stanford court hotel on tying two parcels together. can i get the overhead? there we are. this is the garage. as you can see, it's across the street and removed one parcel, and this is the hotel. so, for the last 45 years or so, these two have been tied together. the only thing that surprised me when the stanford court asked me about this was that they didn't do it 20 years ago. but we're asking today is to sever the two, allow the garage to continue as a community garage
