Activities. Good evening, commissioners and public and my report is going to be relatively brief tonight. And we have had unfortunately, two homicides since our last meeting. We had one on nicoles way out in the bay view, at 20 of 10 and last week, homicides actually were working that case. And very sadly, we had a second homicide just last night, at 24th and cap street. And that brings the total for the year, to 26 again, you know, we actively worked this case, our clearances are up and we are ...

And that is, a lot of us who are aging now, the boomer generation, and we really wanted to stay in our own homes. And as long as possible. And out of the home, that our parents might be in now, and it is a generational thing, i think. And so, a lot of our recommendations actually attempted to begin to instead of look at how you do that, how do you allow people...

And to be waiting on a list and be eliminated is just seems in congress with the whole idea with the Housing Authority is supposed to do. And i would like to see more moneys spent rather than someone leaving a legacy of...

For support but the families of choice are not friends similar in age who may have relocated passed away or in need of services themselves. This difficult as it is, there are chronic illnesses that a person can manage at home on their own such as asthma.
