Thank you for your service. Thank you commissioner Vice President richards. I wanted to say one more thing and not mess up the congratulations to commissioner antonini being the communication dependent on items with the land use there was an article as a sector on channel 7 abc challenge 7. Org the faster disappearing gas stations and a cough of quotes bryan spears on Market Street developed it everyone is concerned about the quote in the article hes acknowledged a growing problem now it the time to have a conversation how people will get gas in the future gas stations i love to see more housing user housing where the gas stations stand but there is a point we still have cars that run on gas and he said the time to have a conversation about people getting gas is now tom the livable city wee said we need to look at the planning code and Building Code to consider to allow gas stations in places where people can get them updating the changing needs of drivers since ive been on the Commission One gas station that being on california that wanted to stay in business and 79 we had or 83 this article says 40 percent less 2017 doing the math one wants to stay in business and the other ones want to go out of business so this a problem the share of electrical vehicles purchased in no way, shape, or form offsets the downward trends in gas station and the mobility. Commissioner moore. Id like to ask the commission to actually schedule an informal meeting on the the subject property matter to be in context with the cars mostly travel that is also occasional driver that finds themselves on lombard street without gas and look at it month corridors where which corridor supports the use of gas stations, etc. A big discussion you, you but very much want a discussion with the staff to discuss that.
