Been with the agency for 13 years. And were really recognizing them for two specific projects, one of which director heinicke is well familiar with, the eureka curve track replacement project which was replacing the track that you heard updates on often at the directors request over the course of the project. Very significant in terms of the basic service of the muni Metro Service through the tunnels and that the track had gotten worn to the point where we couldnt run. It was not safe for us to run the trains at full speed. And the diminished speed diminished the level of service we were able ...

Mayor about that and we confirmed that in writing to him and to christine [speaker not understood], that we are not trying to stop the subway at all, but only were concerned about preserving the community in north beach.

Im in favor of it coming to north beach. And i want to see it happen in the right way with public input and with proper financing.

What are we going to do in the future when we cant get around the city with Public Transit and that train system is just a big boondoggle . I also fear what the 1906 earthquake could not do to destroy chinatown, this project will. And my favorite place to go is north beach. And im just horrified to think that i will not be able to access some of those wonderful restaurants and bakeries that are there because of the disruption of this construction. Thank you very much.
