listen to the concerns and when we go back to the Design Commission well go through that again and see what other concerns they may have. GALDONES:Mr. Getman can you address the noise concerns? GETMAN:Well, the building, well were not, it wouldnt be even in our own interest as a project to have a noisy tenant as part of our project. So, youre not going to, were not going to have any sort of cabaret or something in here or a bar of any kind. We have the same; we would have the same concerns and interest as other residences up the street, the same kind of issues. We wouldnt want our owners having that same kind of thing. But as far as mitigating it our building is U-shaped and the noise is coming down from here. And the people that were worried about it most are going to be actually the noise area will be blocked from our new construction so it will actually help isolate them more than they are right now. GALDONES:Commissionersanyquestions?CommissionerSalavea? SALAVEA:Canyoutalkabouttheviewplane,theimpactoftheviewplaneofthe Billfish residence? GETMAN:Well, theyre 140 feet up this way is the start of their project. This is our site and then they, the hotels the existing large hotels are in here. So, whatever views they have right now were back away from them at least 140 feet so. But frankly in the future we dont know what this, cause you got a 140-foot lot here under separate ownership. We dont have any control of what can be built there either so its the best we can do. NEE:In addition you know the previously proposed building has the same mass as what were proposing so it wont make any difference as far as you know what we proposed. GALDONES:Thank you Mr. Getman. Thank you Mr. Nee. Commissioners are there any further questions of the applicant? If none on the sign up sheet I do not see anybody from the public signing up for testimony. Is there anyone here from the- who wish to testify who has not signed up? If not, Ms. Song are there any closing statements? SONG:Well all were asking is that the Commission consider this favorably. My clients committed to do a project that is a good quality project and also start construction as soon as he can get the permits not delaying in this matter. Thank you. GALDONES:Thank you.
