welcome to city hall, your city hall. i wanted to make sure -- i know supervisor mirkarimi is here. supervisor jane kim is also here. they are both here because i know both have a strong commitment to our youth in san francisco. i want to welcome all of you here tonight for two reasons. one, i know we are going to give some awards out for our youth leaders, but the other reason i wanted to make sure you had a good invitation to come to city hall tonight was because we have been waiting for one of you to register, wondering if you are going to run for mayor or not. there is a vacant seat for youth to lead the city. i think you can take this job and run with it. this city needs to be more kid- friendly, more youth-oriented. i think you could have a big input to make sure that what we are doing will be there for you to raise families as well. i want to congratulate all the nominees tonight. all of you who have been participating in this competition for the fellowship have been doing great work. i have been reading through some of the accomplishments that you are a part of. i got to mee

the city budget reflects so many values of our great city. whether it is departments or community-based agencies or whether it is neighborhood groups, we all had to put our focus on and make sure that this budget would be balanced in the right way. so i want to especially thank all of our labor unions in the city for coming together this year. they were fantastic, and they were obviously very forthright in the things that they represented. particularly, i want to think, especially, the police officers and the police officer association and the head of that. as well as tom o'connor and the local 798 and the firefighters. the public safety contributions from we have some $31 million of savings over the next two years. [applause] and that represents a huge sacrifice. [applause] the public safety officers were part of a larger group of all of the labor unions that we have worked well with in the city. i want to thank all the labor unions for coming together, not only on the budget, but also on our pension reform package as well. to the community-

this is the inner city of amsterdam, and the rest of the city are the suburbs. the whole city, there are 2.2 million people, but the real city of amsterdam, there are less than 800,000, which i think is about the same as san francisco. i will also pass around a few sheets. the important thing is that amsterdam is one of the five major economic central's -- economic centers in europe, and we want to stay that way, and we are an attractive city for international business, like the american and asian companies that like to have business in amsterdam. it is a real nice place to stay. experts like to live in amsterdam, and is accessible from all parts of the world. it is also very important case of cycling. what irony said, 2.2 million and happens, but the last line may be the most important, about 120 kilometers per day traffic jams. that is qu7?) a lot. this distance is not more than 25k. we have a real problem. that is not good for business. for us, it is active transport, really important as a solution for being accessible. ok, does it work? yes. this is the city

>> you have got city budget style that is what the city says i know you will bring it back today and i want it reached now there is something else i want to say you will fix it up with an geomatrix all over the city you will fix it up with geometrics all over, all over the city now supervisor chu: thank you. any other members of the public that wish to speak on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. i have a motion to send the item forward with recommendations, we can do that without objection. next item please. >> item 7. ordinance amending the san francisco administrative code by amending section 10.82 to authorize the controller to establish cash difference and overage funds for the use of any county officer or department head or judicial district handling judicial funds; to increase, reduce, or discontinue the funds; require any county officer or department head using such funds to report to the controller; and require the controller to annually report to the board of supervisors regarding the cash difference and overage funds. supervisor chu: thank you. for this item,

we want them out in the city adding to the economy the investment we are making in the city, this is one store. we have another store down the street. we are doing the same thing on market street. that is a lot of our business customers. they have been in a spot -- small store that have not met our standards. there will be another flagship store similar to the spirit our investment in the city, $200 million in networking. the executive director will talk about that in a little bit. a lot going on in the city. we are proud of it. and people. walt disney said it best. you can dream, create, and build the most wonderful place in the world, but it takes people to make that dream come true. we are hiring people and adding jobs into the city, and we have about 40 employees in the store. we are about to add others. there is a lot going on. we are thrilled about the investment we are making in the city. we are thrilled about the activity of our customers are enjoying with all of these great innovative devices. great, innovative devices. so, a lot going on. thank you for coming today. i want

the city. and finally, i was thrust upon with the obligation to make sure that i selected a police chief, not a temporary police chief. a chief that will carry forth what i consider to be one of the most important things in this city, to secure the public safety of the great city of san francisco. i think i have done that, with the selection and now the appointment of the chief. so many people have come up to me and clearly you expected a chief who had spent 30 years in his life, but i did not realize how many people he has really known in every part of this community. they come up and they thank us for making that wonderful decision. you will see right off the that, if he will be a great partner to make sure our police force and all the public agency facilities work together and we produce a higher level of public safety in the new year. i set out for a number of these objectives to perform those things in the most non-political way and to give it my full, 150% attention. that means to not be

where could the city save some money? >> my very first job was the whistle-blower investigator under the mayor. some people believe there is some truth to why i have accelerated in of my jobs needed because i know where all the skeletons are. i think the secret to our budget -- we are scraping to the bone. it will be a combination of evening things out. our public safety division's have to get smarter about what they're doing. this move that the chief made the of the day -- the other day with assistant chiefs. he determined he did not need four assistant chiefs. one of the first moves he made before asking the work force to contribute was to make them deputy chiefs. that save $75,000 right there in salaries. i think there are more efficiencies to be had. this is where we get ideas even from city employees that tell me what we can do to save on workers' comp, expenses we should not be spending. some areas need to shrink in terms of the work force. we're contemplating those as well. we're still keeping our promise of having

[applause] without his work, no question, from navigating the city bureaucracy, working with the city planner, public, this would not have happened without his efforts. from my department, his counterpart, nick ellser. from the mayor's office of workforce development, the mother of our communities in our town, lisa pegan. and the guy from the mta who gets all the difficult job of figuring out how all this all works, jerry robbins. those are the folks on the city side. there are a lot of other folks to thank, a lot of other work that went into this. but now, it is my pleasure -- this man was progressive before it was cool to be progressive, and he was innovating in the public rights of way before it was cool. as a public works director, he started addressing alleyways in chinatown, in the tenderloin, making them more attractive and welcoming, improving the public realm all over the city. he has since moved on to bigger and better things but has carried that affect on with him, forcing collaboration between city departments, the private sector, and this is the epitome of the kind of par

a rarity here in the city. the national weather service has also issued a tornado watch. >> fema in the past has taken heavy criticism for its handling of natural disasters. you remember katrina, for example. but how well is the agency dealing with this deadly hurricane? we go live to washington, d.c. for more on that. >> reporter: hi. good to see you. so far, so good. president obama is being kept up to date on irene throughout the night from fema and during a meeting with fema earlier in the day, the president said it's going to be a tough slog for the cities and states in irene's path. the president visited the fema command center saturday to get a regional update on the plans for a federal emergency response to hurricane irene. he was having a conference call with everyone throughout the region, including states and municipalities. the president told the staff then he's very pleased with what fema's doosmg he does have concerns but says they are doing a great job. >> what we heard, the biggest concern right

that is what being a neighbor of the great city is all about. that is what i love about the city. my neighborhood is doing the same thing with our street. we want to pay attention to it. we want to get a little help. they get it. we bring the bureaucrats out to the neighborhoods. we make everybody that much more appreciative of what kind of city they are a part of. i want to emphasize the strength of our city relies on the strength of people likfrom the community. you build it here, in glen park, the mission, chinatown. it builds up the strength of the city. it comes back to our department's opening up their resources, not protecting it like other bureaucratic agencies have historically done. we've said we can do it and be challenged with a grant program completely open to everybody. these things are worth the $1 million it looks like today. it is worth 10 times more in building camaraderie and companionship with our neighbors. i want to emphasize that. i want to represent that by giving what i can do to reflect our appreciation for the leadership. it is a certificate of honor to

i have always loved this city. i think that san francisco is -- it represents the best of what this country has to offer. it is a place that welcomes people from all over the world, from all over the country, and is a place that not only tolerates, but actually increases diversity. it is a place that is forward thinking in terms of how it looks at issues, and it has always felt like home. as a gay latino man, i felt this was a place where i could be happy. >> why did you get involved? supervisor campos: i think a lot of the past to do with my being an immigrant. i am very grateful for all the opportunities this country has given me. only in this country could someone like me have an opportunity to go from having nothing to go to stanford, harvard law school, and to be an attorney. it really is a way of giving back. i really believe that when you are blessed with the opportunities that this country gives you, that you have an obligation to give back. i really believe in public service. i could be in the private sect

doing any oversight on your city departments, city agencies, and cbo's. you should read all of your civil grand jury reports and follow their recommendations. these are average citizens, some lawyers, some school teachers. they have no agendas, they have no political constituency, and they're giving you sound advice. thank you. supervisor campos: two minutes that we had given everyone? >> yes, two minutes. >> ok, i am here to speak about this development agreement. it seemed that you are focusing only on the tenant issues. that should not be the only issue discussed here today, since we have a plan department here. the civil grandeur report, we think the members who submitted the documents. my concerns are on the architecture would issues. one is that there was no sound this report. there has not been a carbon footprint analysis on the project after renovations of the garden units. there is no analysis of the direct transit options. they have eliminated any preservation alternative in this project under item four. they said for a variety of policy reasons

and just a wonderful history that we have made us a standout city where i think other cities, which they had some of that aspect we doff. we're also a cost prohibitive city. it's expensive to be here. i think it's extremely important we remain sensitive to strategy and implementation of making sure the city retains its class diversity. there's always a lot of discussion about diversity in terms of culture and race. class diversity is something that shouldn't be subordinate to that discussion. i want to make sure that san francisco has a working class population. i want to make sure we do not take for granted because we are seen as more cosmopolitan, that that excuses us from not tackling issues of poverty, which there are still substantial pockets of it in san francisco. just by what others may argue. that to me obligates our requirement to make sure this city, being in its reputation of being forward thinking and progressive, learn to -- learn to make sure that that translates into economics so that this isn't a city just for those who could afford it. >> what do you feel like are some

at the worst streets in the city. it will also make sure every supervisory district gets a fair share of those dollars so that you do not have people in carmen chu's district saying, how about my streets? it will be equally distributed. there is a geographical equity clause in the bond that says everybody gets a fair share. we just will pick the worst streets in their district to work on. the benefits of working on those streets, or threfor three years it is at a total capacity for what dpw can do. after three years, we do not want to come back with another big bond. what we would like to try to do is get the street repaving back to the general fund. build up the general fund so that it can cover the streets. it may at the 100%, so we are looking at taking back the vehicle license fee that the state now has. they use it for everything but our streets. we need to take that local decision and get our vehicle license fee back to our streets. the combination of those two will colon -- continue to allow us to have a good p

the city needs to recommit ourselves to the values that our city was named after. st. francis believed in compassion for those who have less -- had less than others. those of us with opportunities have to give back. part of that entails taking care of the most important among us, the folks who have need, including our homeless. >> let's talk about the transportation situation in your district. you mentioned that transit could be better. how is parking and traffic? is there enough muni service now? >> you are talking to the one member of the board that does not only car. i get around my district by muni, bicycle, or hailing a cab. our transit system is truly challenge. our bosses are late one out of four times. -- our buses are late one out of a quarter times. they're still not as clean and safe as we'd like. we can do better and investing in our muni system. we need more taxicabs on the streets. is difficult to obtain a cab. i support the concept of centralized taxi dispatch systems so you know who you can call to get a cab. i am a big believer in pedestrian bicycling

for in the city hall. nonetheless, the two men didn't see eye to eye ideologically. they often voted against each other's most important pieces of legislation. dan white found himself being defeated again and again and again. he was a very ineffective supervisor. at the same time, he had lost his job as a fireman because the city attorney ruled he couldn't hold the job and the supervisor, so his salary had fallen to $9,600 a year which is what supervisors were paid. he had a sweetheart lease because he was a politician at pier 39. he started a hot potato stand, but his wife, marianne, was down there working and their little son charlie was often being carted down to the potatoes stand. they involve a very, very pressured by all of this. and then come out in the face of all that pressure, he resigned abruptly without having spoken to many people about his plans on november 10th. he simply tendered his resignation. he thought he was under pressure before. now he really came under pressure. all the people who

same story from brooksbury back up into parts of the southeastern parts of new york city and new city and all the way back up toward scehenectady. manage what those areas would do with ten inches of rainfall. the threat for new york city if you take all that water and pile it up in the harbor and take it and push it around into the north part of long island. long island sound there. that all is going to have to go to one place and that's all going to be the east river. the east river goes up and all of the eastern parts of manhattan flood. you get to williamsburg, get water there. that's right where laguardia is. water coming up as water's trying to rush from two separate directions. it can't do it very long without that water rising. where anderson cooper is standing on battery park i suspect will be wet not with rain but salt water because of the water getting pushed in from the ocean by tomorrow. isha? >> different areas to be worried about. chad, thank you. we'll continue to check in with you. now let's go to brian todd in wilmington, north carolina. brian, what are conditions lik

everybody in city hall. they are very excited and behind the whole change going into affect. >> i just got an email. i work for the san francisco public library. they needed volunteers. it was something i wanted to do. i have friends who have been married. i wanted to help out. >> i am a summer intern. i am working on gender equality in the private sector. the theme is equality for the summer. it's pretty exciting. people are really nervous. we have to ask them for id. >> we and have an appointment and allow them to proceed >> once you are ready, you and your husband to be need to check in with me here. that's process you one by one. get your license here and re-enter. >> city hall is going to take care of you today. >> don't worry about the time line. >> we are greeting people here and directing them to the services they need, which is licensing or getting the ceremony performed. we are making sure nobody else jumps the line. >> the marriage license process is defined by the court space. >> okay. are we goo

, our city that does invite millions of people to our city every year, but then, we are also a city of neighborhoods. neighborhood schools like peabody here, where we have to do even extra things to make sure that our kids are getting to school safely. just this morning, what i wanted to do to come out here immediately was to join bryan, who was out here this morning. he is a buy and hear from our fire department, happens to be a parent of kids who go to this school. spending the morning guiding the kids from the cars to the playground. and it is necessary for that because there's so much traffic going on here, but i got a firsthand from him that it is verified that the speed of the streets and routes around our schools are dangerous. that they need to be slowed down. it has been shown in study after study, and the last one we looked at was the study in london as well where if you slowed down even a fraction of the speed, you can get a high increase in the amount of safety and reduction in the fatal -- fatalities that result from car collisions. for us in san francisco, today, we'd pic

this city has huge short-term problems ahead and a economic blow to the city. when new york suffers, the nation suffers. monday is difficult enough with a lack much transportation and getting two and is a nightmare. this is one of the slowest times of the year for new york city residents. there is almost no one here in august. european tourist and southern schools have gone to school. and people are at summer houses and doing whatever they do. we are not full of new yorkers here anyway. if it was weak, this is one. we'll be in a world of hurt. wehave a new's conference. virginia governor bob americadonald. virginia is in the path . a lot of concern there. >> elizabeth river. it is a bad timing with the winds at their peak at the same time as high tide. so storm surge is dangerous and we urge no body to go out or anywhere near the water right now. it is extremely, extremely hazardous. aware that we have dramatic power outages in the state currently. and the last report 796,959 customers without power. that means hook ups and that means on average two and half pe

what is the city going to do with that? when the state cuts, how much impact is that to the city? >> on the zoning issue, we have calculated, in their process, they say if you want to restore your pre development agency, you have to pay a certain amount of money. we believe the amount of that money is about $20 million. we do not have that kind of money. we are trying to figure out ways in which we can finance that, but that they need to come through redevelopment. we do not have the money in the city at all. that is the challenge. the other challenge is, it is the opinion of the redevelopment agency that it is illegal for the state to do this. the redevelopment agency for san francisco will most likely join in a state-wide a lawsuit against the state from doing this. as a city, we are reviewing our options, but because it is a separate agency, the redevelopment agency can make its own decisions. we have not included on our decision. we are working with the city attorney to get some aspects on the legality of this. we are fairly certain the redevelopment agency will be joining the

to what is going to be the lead city in the country. >> city working on all sorts of things. we are trying to be new and innovative and go beyond the ada says and make life more successful for people. >> disability rights movement, the city has the overall legal obligation to manage and maintain the accessibility and right of way. with regards to the curb ramps, bounded by a groove border, 12-inch wide border. for people with low vision to get the same information. the shape of the domes, flush transition between the bolt bottom of the ramp and gutter. >> we have a beveled transition on the change in level, tape on the surfaces, temporary asphalt to fill in level changes, flush transition to temporary wood platform and ramp down into the street under the scaffoldinging. detectable ramps. they are all detectable. nothing down below or protruding that people are going to get snagged up on. smooth clean that nobody is going get caught up on. >> our no. 1 issue is what we see here, the uplifting and shreufting to concrete due too street tree roots. here is another problem we have

city. welcome, supervisor. thank you for joining us. tell us a little bit about your background, where you grew up, where you went to school, and the jobs you have work. >> i grew up in the porthole and neighborhood. most of my childhood, i went to lakeshore elementary school. i love to talk a bell will -- about lowell high school. i studied political science with a concentration in public administration. i worked eight years, largely in the public sector. then, earned a master's degree from carnegie-mellon in pittsburgh pennsylvaniamy work . i spent time as an executive director for nonprofit on the hill. i was assistant to a wonderful person named julie middleton. the park that worked at was formally known as the hunters point community foundation. we did several programming for kids in the neighborhood. i also have a background in politics on both sides of the day here in san francisco and oakland. i have done fund-raising for different candidates. i have work experience with the federal

, our great city of san francisco. as you know, we have been courting the chinese tourists and chinese business people for quite some many years and working very closely with our heads of travel, we have just finished what of the greatest international powwows -- one of the greatest international powwows that we have ever hosted in our city. we thank the hotel leaders in our city. we had such a wonderful successful international powwow. i want to welcome the deputy counsel general who joins us here today. he knows very much that people are coming to the council general to try to think of ways in which whole groups of people can come here and experience the bay area of san francisco and make the connections, but i am here mainly because i wanted to see what the breakfast is all about. [laughter] if you have never traveled to the far east, particularly to china, breakfast is, as the hilton has described, one of those important meals. people get up at six or six -- 6:00 or 7:00 in the morning, even though they may have a

the city. s.p.a. is just now rolling out a program for r -- will be the case by the summer. let me get one last point and on the question about relationships to lenders. the question was, do have to have an account with a bank in order to get a loan? may answer is no, but the real answer to it is certainly want to do that. one of the things we see as an important thing for you, as a small-business person to establish a relationship with a lender on a variety of levels before you look for funding. part of that is opening an account with them, letting a lender know about your business, understand your business, talk to them as you are growing your business. when the economy is strong, all lenders are shopping for transactions. in times are tough on credit, you want to rely on those deeper liberation ships with your lender. you want to develop a relationship with a lender. it is the case where you want to open up an account, while to have another bank services that you want to have a relationship

two local city guys. >> there you go. supervisor chiu: i fully appreciate the concerns raised by some tenant leaders. i would never supported the project if i did not feel comfortable that tenant rights have been protected here with parker said -- part merced. i say this as one of the few tenants on the board of supervisors, who has been a staunch advocate of tenants before i was elected and with my votes on this board. my parents immigrated to the united states in the 1960's, and i was the first kid born in the u.s. my parents sacrificed everything so that their kids could have the opportunities that they wanted when they came here. i grew up in the boston area, live in different parts of boston, went to a catholic high school in dorchester, which is a section of boston. because of my parents work and the opportunities they gave me, my brothers and i were all blessed to go to harvard university. it was intense. i stayed there for college, for law school, and i also have a master's in public policy there. those are subjec

do you think the city should spend money to keep the 49ers? supervisor chu: america's cup has the potential to serve as an economic engine for us. we knew that going in, and that is why it was such an important effort on the city's part, to bring that activity to san francisco. not only would it result in improvements on the pier that we were not able to afford any other way, but it helps to bring about jobs, people coming to visit, helping with our tourism industry, everything else associated with having a major event in the city. that is something that helps bring up the economic opportunities of a community, and that is very important. if you think about the role of sports in san francisco, we have to think about the giants and how amazing that whole experience was for us in terms of the world series. we had people in my district as we were coming in for the parade on muni. everybody was dressed in giants colors. everybody was in such an elated mood. everybody was brought together, no matter what ethnicity, what community, what neighborhood

the city is virtually shut down, yes, the city that never sleeps is virtually shut down, waiting on this storm. it's getting closer with at least the outer bands are starting to arrive in the metro area. our affiliate, wabc reporting that 40,000 homes and businesses are already without power. last night, the new york city mayor, michael bloomberg came out again and said, new yorkers, i know you're a tough bunch, but this is not the time to be complacent. >> the bottom line is the storm is finally hitting new york city. the winds will increase. the rain will increase and the tidal surge will increase, particularly in the morning. tomorrow morning when you wake up, whatever the conditions are, please stay inside. too many things blow around, whether it's tree limbs coming down or porch furniture being blown away. it's just not safe to be outside. it's cute to say i was outside during the storm but you're much better off staying inside and looking out. >> interesting how he put that. it's cute to say you're outside and to be there and you made it through a storm but this is not funny stuff

we are a world-class city. we have at our own people to be considerate of and those coming in from around the world for this affair. de gria -- the gria and up dissipating as they should be in sanitation and hygiene. we have people urinating and defecating on our beach. if you are going to have this event and the quality event, may i encourage you through the city and county government to address this to the national maritime museum to get those two restrooms working? they are now dysfunctional. they are now working. people do not know at times where to do their thing. in some cases, it is unhygienic to be on our beaches. user it also the coordinator for the presidio, and i think this is an issue of public safety for all those. get those restaurants open and this will contribute to the success of this event and it will also keep the water quality control up for the thousands of swimmers to participate in the dolphin club and the south end running clubs. i thank you out for addressing this important issue for al

the city responded. you want to thank and lee, now mayor ed lee, and our supervisors for their big ship and support. many hours were spent collaborating. not only amongst advocates and service providers, but the residents themselves. every day we hear from residents the openly -- they openly expressed their struggles being limited in this profession and how difficult language is to services and knowing their rights. language access is critical, and we will continue to work to make the city as accessible to all residents. now it is time for our communities to heal. we know that when communities come together to work toward positive change, the more understanding results. as a city, we can not become complacent. it is through programs like the community ambassadors that neighbors get to know when each other, where children and families do not live in fear when they step outside their homes. all residents deserve to be safe, respected, live with dignity, no matter what they but they are from. we call on the

wanted someone who san francisco understood, the dynamics of city government, and so we knew the city and was passionate about being a san francisco and. the many challenges he faces -- implementing the new labor contract, reaching out to all labour organizations at all levels. he is concerned with the basic reliability and key functions of. -- and key functions. is said that while improving -- he said that while improving functions was a basic key measure, we will look into what that entails. it is a thoughtful look from someone who cares about the system, but is coming from outside. the most important thing to him is the most important to our customers, transit and parking and traffic. pedestrians, the whole thing. is a comprehensive view. we are confident we have chosen exactly the right person at this time. the next part of the agenda was to invite mayor lee to say a few words. that actually, he is on jury duty. i would think it would be a benefit of mayor that you do not have to do that, but evidently not. he is a real citizen, the mayor. instead, we have from the board of superv

but it ends with the whole city's world-class status. and we could not do this without everybody feeling the same y. they are part of the work force, some 26,000 people that served in the city, and they are part of a world-class standard. so, i want international tourists to be visiting this restaurant and to know that it was part of sf shines, part of a program at the neighborhood level, but they have world class people to serve them better part of our revelation of businesses along the first street corridor, and i am so proud to be down here to kick this program off with supervisor cohen, knowing that it has the world-class touch to let. we have been feeling isolated, disconnected. we do not want that to happen. we want to make sure that those on third street feel a part of the. we did this with the renovation of the t-line. it is an old promise, being led by new leaders like malia cohen. thank you for all the departments of come together on this. we have been talking about this for many months. especially last year when the budget had

>> we are working with them as part of the vehicles for the city contract for the city vehicle -- a city employee use and the location, we're trying to identify locations where there are gaps in their coverage in those areas that were identified with the collaboration of that office. supervisor cohen: there is a series of criteria you used to evaluate which neighborhoods would get one of the five initial car spots, right? and curious to know because i don't think you contacted my office and i don't understand the criteria that she used, but once again it appears we're left out the map. -- left off the map. i do is see anything south of the mission district. how -- i don't see anything south of the mission district. how do you expect to meet adequate demand if you don't even set up with an adequate benchmark? >> the idea is to find gaps in the current support system whereby vehicles are not currently available in those neighborhoods. working with the car share companies and other partners to try to find locations where we can put these locations and those locations ratified as well as in
