6:09 pm
people. are dying in the city. too many people are sprawled out all over our streets. and now we have a plan to address it. the emergency declaration allowed for the fast tracking of the linkage center, putting people in contact with treatment and services and also cleared the way for urban alchemy to expand patrols in the area. but as that 90 day declaration drew to a close in march, critics said, the added pressure in the tenderloin shifted problems into other neighborhoods. critics also say that the short term declaration didn't create long term solutions to long standing problems. looking back. the mayor says her plan had mixed results. i had hoped it would make a real difference around the number of people who were using drugs out in the open and publicly, um i had hoped it would make a huge difference in
6:10 pm
the number of people we were able to move towards treatment. the mayor said a major hurdle to addressing the issues facing the tenderloin has been a lack of consequences for drug dealers something she says recently appointed district attorney brooke jenkins can begin to address the jails were like a revolving door for people, um, who should be held accountable for what's happening on our streets and that's exactly what our district attorney is doing. the district attorney has made it clear her priority in the tenderloin is making sure those who need help with addiction get help, while those who peddle drugs are prosecuted. i think that we are going to have to do something bold in order to really get control of the situation, particularly in the tenderloin, but also south of market and other, uh, neighborhoods that are begging for change. the mayor says the challenges facing the tenderloin won't be met with policy decisions alone, but with where the city spends its money. for example, she says the city's police department is currently
6:11 pm
at least 500 officers short for the police. it was a big deal to get the budget, um through the board of supervisors without significant cuts. so that we can move forward as aggressively as we can, with not only recruitment of new officers, but retention and making sure that our police force is trained. the mayor says she hopes the problems in the tenderloin, which were decades in the making , don't take decades to resolve in san francisco. christien kafton ktvu, fox two news people at a rally in san francisco today called attention to a criminal trial backlog in the city's superior court system . san francisco public defender manu raju led the rally on bryant street, along with supervisors hillary ronen and dean preston, the city's public defenders, saying when a client is denied their right to a speedy trial, the negative impacts have a ripple effect. when the courts are not enforcing trial deadlines. our clients are trapped pretrial in
6:12 pm
jail. by a system that violates their rights. jeopardizes their health and separates them from their families. and communities who went on to say that today there are more than 550 people who are beyond their speedy trial deadlines. more than 150 of them are currently being detained in jail. it's disgraceful. is a disgrace. government governors are doing disgraceful. governor newsom has some harsh words for the governors of florida and texas after they sent migrants to other parts of the country. also ahead more concerns that inflation is taking its toll on the economy. leaders in washington mall taking more action to avoid an official recession. and as we head into your bay area weekend changes underway. we'll start out with partly cloudy skies for tomorrow , followed by mostly cloudy, followed by rain. better details coming up, but first, thousands

the state of california in a statement, the governor's office says this climate package will create four million new jobs. the biden administration today announced a bold effort to develop floating wind turbines off california's coast. ktvu tom vacar looked the potential to supply clean energy to millions of homes. the button offshore wind energy plan is bold and broad energy plan presented in options. the president's proposing massive floating wind energy farms tethered to the ocean floor conducted by underwater transmission lines, feeding massive power into electrical grids. energy department says floating row bynes produce up to 2.8 carol watts of clean energy that's more than twice america's current electricity demand huge potential energy here but the other thing to remember about offshore wind is that it's 3 to 4 times more expensive than
6:17 pm
onshore wind. the wind industry supports california wins, see a .org, a big proponent of wind energy, one of the specific commitments the administration did is they goal to reduce the cost? 70% by 2035. which is roughly in the frame went offshore wind would be needed here. california as to clutter, coastal scenery, even giant generators, 800 ft tall can be put out of sight and out of mind . offshore wind farms would be 20 miles offshore, so basically beyond the view that people would have on most days, there are huge environmental issues to still be resolved. what about tethers wounding sea life? what about damage? they might do the underwater habitat. or fishing grounds. still our environmental concerns that need to be addressed as much more manageable by me at far offshore ocean with our steadier, stronger winds. even after sunset, they work very well.
6:18 pm
offshore wind farms and such farms already offer off the coast of maine. that's been driven by the fact that they really don't have any places put onshore wind in much of the northeast. the western states have lots of onshore, wind rich sites that could be used. but there are costs to build the power lines and other infrastructures need power to california offshore wind. my understanding is does receive a larger tax credit than a lot of other forms of renewable energy, which will help push it towards competitiveness but offshore wind facilities as opposed to those in the interior west would require a lot of california workers build and maintain the off for wind farms. tom baker, ktvu just two news windy weather this weekend could be a problem for crews battling the mosquito fire, fire and plaster and eldorado county's and granting speakers and it is 20% contained cooler weather is on the way strong are also expected.
