the 1% transfer fee associated with each unit is a brilliant idea. the board gets to participate in it, the upside of the sale, and the revenue stream goes to the port. there are tremendous benefits to the city, and we need to retain jobs, have people move here. we have been reading over and over again that there is a huge shortage in the housing rate. the fee that will be paid equates to about 25%, as well as significant taxes. this is a great deal that to be accepted. it has been almost seven years and i encourage you to go for it. thank you. chairperson chu: thank you. next speaker. >> my name is o faughz eriksson and -- my name inspect oz eriksson and i am the chairman of the emerald find. we provided development of the hotel. before we developed the vitale it was a parking lot, a new bus parking lot. and it was pro-family ugly. when munich -- it was profoundly ugly. when muni came to us, and we responded with four or five other people and we won the competition to get it, we were very, very strongly opposed by well-meaning people. ralph moral sa

power of bringing people together, of uniting behind a cause about an issue that was important to the community, and as a result, the national farm workers associationorn in 1962, but soon afterwards became the united farm workers. there's a tremendous amount of work to be done, but there's been so much that's been accomplished because of all the support, all the help that we've gotten from people throughout the united states over the years, and the boycotts and the marches and the protests in front of the supermarkets. all that has really begun to change things for farm workers and give them minimum wage coverage under state and federal laws, give them working compensations and unemployment insurance when they are not employed and a host of other good legislative changes that have been made, and in addition to that, because of contracts farm workers sign with employers, we have the first medical plan for farm workers and the first pension plan for farm workers and much better working conditions out there in the fields during the heat, during the winter days, whatever there were. cesar chavez was one of the -- the main, the primary civil rights lead

more than any other nation, the united states possesses a traditional moral identity and that identity is clearly associated with religious tolerance. democratic governance, freedom of the individual, promotion of economic opportunity andry si y resistance to oppression. this set of ideals was reaffirmed through the sacrifice of our civil war. it was amplified during two world wars in which the united states opposed the forces of aggression and conquest. it was reinvigorated through the struggle of our own civil rights movement. our moral identity glows from thomas jefferson and abraham lincoln through wilson and ronald reagan to the present day. and rarely do we take a major foreign policy initiative without some attempt to justify it on moral grounds. rarely are failed foreign policies spared morally based criticism. in making this observation, i'm not claiming the united states is the undisputed moral compass of the world. rather i say no nation is more closely associated with a set of historic moral precipes and no nation is judged more meticulously according to its own articulated values. as an observe
