I appreciate this, and again, this is such a challenging time, i would say the risks the downsides to the shelter in place and the slow reopening are very real and very concerning from a health standpoint and an economic standpoint.

Simply based on the long delays that the public has been observing with the work with public works. But we should have an update soon i would imagine. But, yeah, the timeframe i think that theyre reevaluating right now. Theres been many of our smaller projects, however, that were not allowed to proceed during shelterinplace and like neighborhood and traffic on main and the required work by actual work crews working together, they were deemed nonessential. Okay, thank you. Okay. Commissioner safai. Commissioner safai thank you, chair peskin and thank you mr. Tumlin. So i understand the fiscal outlook.

Other times of day what were looking to do is now that we have fulltime parking on the other side of the street, were going to look at relocating loading spaces to the other side of the street or as close as possible. Part of the process will be working with merchants to identify loading needs. We have done our best job to identify relocated spaces for now, but we are going to be looking at merchant by merchant by merchant is this meeting your needs, and we rapidly get out there and find an alternative solution if we need it, including potentially even this might open the opportunity for Outdoor Dining and other things that wouldnt have been possible before because of the tow away restrictions.
