Its an exciting time for target. As you know 2012 50 marks our 50th year and we have a new concept and designs for the urban shopper and to complement the citys character and the small store offers the product but more suited to these lifestyles.

Of them, the Hetch Hetchy Valley. Have other studies said this is feasible . Sure, just like tearing down city hall or knocking down the golden gate bridge, thats possible but not feasible. Were not going to spend 3 billion dollars to tear down the hetch hetchy dam. Lets not forget, we are also stewards for two dozen cities in the peninsula.

Questions. I dont know how this would fit in with sea wall lot 337 or pier 70 if you need a acre of land. I really want this to happen as soon as we can get it because obviously using recycled water for irrigation and other non portable uses is a critical part of reducing using hetch hetchy water for non portable uses but i think there is still a lot of questions. Please ask them. Thank you. Thank you. Other Public Comment . Commissioners questions . Comments . I am in favor of the project moving forward.
