Report . Yes i did. It came on after that. I have only been involved in the past month or so. And i found the pal letty report to be objective and pointed out some of the inherent weaknesses in the mark theatre and some suggestions as to what could be done to improve it. Thank you. Okay. Well i would like to follow that up and what has done to protect this project from the marsh theatre. So in the past, prior to the latest ceqa appeal, the sponsor did higher and acoustic cult consultant and they also took other efforts. They eliminated the roof depth feature out of response of noise. They limited construction hours and you may have seen in the approval to address the theatres schedule and incorporated in the design to design between the adjacent buildings.

I appreciate your focus on this. We had so many transit related projects from Market Street to the subway and various other projects where initial deadlines and bu
An abomination down mission street. Nothing moved. Mission street doesnt have decent service. Additionally the one thing missing from every transportation seen that i have ever seen is a map of the hills of San Francisco. Until you grasp the fact theyre limited ways to get around the city because the mountains are in the way and the east is bay fill you have a Transit System and mind set that everything is flat and everything is walkable and bikable and its not true and the Transit System needs to be adjusted for that.
