The 00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.899 plan aims to introduce more housing, green space, 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.860 and safety enhancements, reflecting community 00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:32.759 feedback and citywide goals. According to San 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.089 Diego Planning Director Heidi Vomblum, This update 00:04:36.089 --> 00:04:39.689 is essential for the area's development. Residents 00:04:39.689 --> 00:04:42.769 have mixed feelings. While some support increased 00:04:42.769 --> 00:04:45.949 housing and amenities, others expressed frustration 00:04:45.949 --> 00:04:48.750 over potential changes to the area's character. 00:04:49.910 --> 00:04:52.730 The public has until September 7th to share their 00:04:52.730 --> 00:04:55.029 thoughts on the plan through the city's website. 00:05:00.290 --> 00:05:04.750 Now on to sports. In Indianapolis, the future 00:05:04.750 --> 00:05:08.689 of Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. is 00:05:08.689 --> 00:05:11.550 uncertain after the team named Daniel Jones the 00:05:11.550 --> 00:05:15.250 starting quarterback. Richardson's agent, Derek 00:05:15.250 --> 00:05:18.269 Jackson, expressed disappointment, questioning 00:05:18.269 --> 00:05:20.709 whether the decision was predetermined by the 00:05:20.709 --> 00:05:23.370 signing of Jones to a one -year contract worth 00:05:23.370 --> 00:05:28.870 $14 million. Jackson stated, trust is a big factor, 00:05:28.970 --> 00:05:32.129 and that is, at best, questionable right now. 00:05:32.250 --> 00:05:35.649 referring to Richardson's previous benching. 00:05:36.009 --> 00:05:38.870 Despite this, Richardson emphasized that he holds 00:05:38.870 --> 00:05:42.310 no hard feelings about the decision and is focused 00:05:42.310 --> 00:05:46.389 on personal growth. Jackson believes Richardson's 00:05:46.389 --> 00:05:49.389 playmaking ability remains a valuable asset for 00:05:49.389 --> 00:05:54.889 the team in local sports. Last night at Fenway 00:05:54.889 --> 00:05:58.949 Park, the Red Sox lost to the Orioles 4 -3 in 00:05:58.949 --> 00:06:02.790 11 innings.
