The mayors offices of the neighborhoods, program which is under oewdn. I think they will have a lot of advice to add. Obviously, they are usually dealing with existing neighborhoods and communities in how they can help those neighborhoods. This is a unique situation where we build up a new neighborhood. There are a lot of important lessons there. From my experience on the private side and also as planner, i think there is a important distinction between destination retail and neighborhoods serving retail.

They need to be stated. We coming up next putting the numbers and this is essential and this is essential because even for the board of supervisors i know, i will not vote anything until we have that and because, these people here reading all the the documents and theyre technical and out there when you live in front of city
Residing in the units under management of those providers will be transferred to replacement units in the New Buildings as they are developed, just a reminder for everyone, our first building is in partnership with source to plow shares and China Town Community development and so those 36 source of plow shares units residents will move into that first building and our second building is in partnership with Catholic Charities and thats 135 unit buildings so 66 units will be occupied by Catholic Charities residents and then the remaining units well be trying to transition as many pre dda building as we planned including 23 units that we will be constructing without the benefit of Affordable Housing tax credits and other funding and where we transition households that dont meet income eligible requirements for formal housing.
