there are supermarkets you can bring your recycling to and more important, there's curbside recycling all over the neighborhood. and all this industrial concern in a residential neighborhood does is act as a magnet to bring people into the neighborhood and raid our recycling every week. it's not just the noise, it's throwing our trash on the street every week to get our bottles and cans. every week have i to go out in the morning and pick up my trash, pick up the trash of my neighbors, put it back in. the site is obsolete. it's a magnet for a nuisance in the neighborhood and it shoul...

>> good evening, commissioners. i am in inner sunset resident. i am here in support of the proposal for a community garden. this is not for an industrial use. any other business could move a business to another space. the garden space can still be utilized with the native plants and as a community gathering space. i am not much of a public speaker. it could be better utilized for the inner sunset residents and neighboring residents as a community garden, rather than an industrial use. thank you very much. >> [reading names] if your name has been called, could you come forward, please...
