>> [inaudible].
>> what's your question, mr. Reeferseed?

>> I would like to make a comment.
>> now is a good time.
>> I support this variance.
but I would like to just say for the record that I continue to be extremely frustrated by our inability to limit the road cuts into major highways where it is significant safety problems. This project is a good one.
there's no legal reason why we should deny this, but it's a problem with these kinds of projects.
but I do support this.
>> okay.
