Its the only program that ive learned so much compared to the hearing program. That they use sign language, they show body language, and i really recommend those who are out there that really need help to come here. And its hard at the beginning, but once you go through it, it becomes easier. And i think that now it becomes really easy for me, and im still learning every day. Recovery is an ongoing process; its a continuous process through your whole lifespan, so its important to continue working on recovery. What i do to help people that are still in the program i support the newcomers and show how ive become sober, then explain what ive gone through. Im always inspired and proud to see when that happens. You know, comparing them to when they first came in, ill, they come in thin, and now, you know, they leave strong and full of hope. And their life is full of color. It works. It really works, but its not because just the staff or the place, it works because the person comes here and
Really three parties a year. You have the government, president kiirs supporters. You have machars supporters. And you have this group of detainees who are not either. That is, they are looking for a broader party role, a broader use of the Party Mechanisms and authorities. And to make them part of the negotiati negotiations, you have to enlarge those negotiations to allow for views other than just the two contending parties. But you need to do that to give them a role, because there are two things that have to happen. After a cease fire, you have to have an understanding as to what the governments going to look like for the next two years. And that means that those people now detained, and president kiir, and people from machars side, have to agree on the structure of a government over the next two years. Meanwhile, you have this what i think a broad constitutional process that delves into the longer term issues of democracy, human rights, and governance. So this is a complicated nego
He found exculpations, its a needle in a hay stake. The land slide we did find was apart of the redesign and the redesign is we move 3 million cubic feet of soil. It takes time and effort to move 3 million cubic yards of soil. That was the two year nine month delay that came to this commission in april. We are delayed but its because of one project. We havent seen creeping delays due to lack of attention, and on alameda creek, it could not go into implementation until we finished apart of the program anyway, so a relook at that has benefited us. And so in that case, the delays have been both positive on quality project and on cost of product. So yes, we are committing to immediating were committed to this project. Thank you for input. Every meeting, we have a different calendar goal in terms of completion. I just want you to be aware of the fact that were aware of the fact that it changes all the time. We dont seem to have any fixed goal. We have a fixed goal now, and thats 2019. And i
For being here. Any other Public Comment on this item . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Madam secretary, next item. City clerk item 9 is the response on the proposed march 14 revised [inaudible]. Good afternoon, commissioners. Dan wade, and im pleased to report today on a response to the comments and recommendations, that basca gave us in the letter dated 2014 regarding the march 2014 revised water system improvement program. Now just very quickly refresher on the revised march 2014 water system improvement program, compared to the march 2013 revised program is that the program was approved on april 22nd of this year, it includes a cost increase of 120 million and one month scheduled delay to may 2019. Both of these overall changes are largely driven by the different conditions for the replacement project. As you know, as the end of so in review of the changes made in the march 2014 revised, basca presented mindings and recommendations regarding the budget, and schedule of the p
Sent ner the discussion right now. So the concern is well taken and i want to assure you that were going to bring these projects to successful completion. I would like to add with those projects, we knew about those hazards quite some time ago, and so the progression of time is getting a bit unmanageable in my point of view. Can i just respond to her. Keep in mind, there were 80 so projects that weve been marching and completing and, you know, making some major progress. The ones that weve been having issues with, weve been reporting on. Weve been reporting on and the main one is calvarise. That is something that, you know, weve been working with bsawsca and our stakeholders, and we want to built it in a way that it can withstand a seismic event as it was intended on. While been fine ago lot of trace faults which weve been addressing, so do you want to talk more about that. If i may, certainly on certainly on large programs, theres a concern of creeping delays.
