Putting an office cap on those things so they dont turn completely into tech spaces, a 50 cap seems quite in agreement with it elsewhere in pdr. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hel...

Have another 50,000, 75,000 cars in San Francisco or another million cars in the bay area. It doesnt work on our roads, in terms of parking, in terms of pollution, and so forth. Were going to be in a world of hurt if we dont have a transit system, not just muni supplying to all of our systems, but si system capable of providing Reliable Service to the city and this region so people can either want own a car or if they own a car can drive it less and that will only happen if Public Transportation...

The timeline for procuring them. Its going to be done through a consortium through the state of minnesota and thats the intent for the additional procurements coming up where mta participates in a larger contract and tailors the specks for San Francisco needs but doesnt have to go through a longer process of coming up with the contract guidelines so this saves about a year for the procurement process. The impact of pushing out when the funds are needed but bringing when the funds are needed, if ...
