What members said, in order
City wrote a letter. One of the items we highlighted was we really questioned their underlying demographic projections because their population projections drive everything. And I just wanted to highlight again, they didn't change those in this current version. MTC is assuming a 23%, 24% increase between population in the Bay Area between 2020 and 2050.Jim Cervantes · Council Member4:18:24
