Code writing and adoption and two of the big issues in the plan were protecting the allies that a lot of the residential to a lot of the residential units in the western soma are on the alleys and another big issue was kind of protecting and enhancing the folsom as the main street of soma over all and west, and another big Sticking Point was entertainment, over all as an issue, and essentially what the western soma plan did, before it was adopted not having to the entertainment was not permitted anywhere in soma and in other words, in this portion of soma and harrison street here, kind of following on the freeway was the dividing line and you can see the colors shift and north you have the yellows and the browns, and south, you have the blues, and for the most part and what that represents, is north of harrison is primarily intended to be mixed use, with mostly residential.

And this is just up for discussion tonight and just it is good to discuss it first a
