unit. so a lot of units, a lot of unit types but i wanted to throw them all on one side so you can see them in context. there is six categories of inclusionary units. the middle 10 1/2 bmr to 22 percent of median income and catch up unit that are 80 percent income. you can see how they fall out on the project. the catch up units first appear in phase 2a and one of the density bonus units in median income appears as well. i won't go line byline but you can see how they are laid out from the 10 1/2 percent units to the right which are the density bonus units. >> phase 1a will meet the compliance of dda to 22 percent. i want the turn it over to mr. zubra to say a few words about the project. >> thank you. good afternoon, chair rows -- it's a unique site with 75 -foot from the bottom. we have tried to take advantage of the incredible views and where there are some imposing retaining walls where it would face those walls. we developed a skip type where every single unit will have a view out to t

we call these units density bonus units. this is the redevelopment plan and the developer is proposing that six of the density units be affordable at 120 percent of medium income. you have seen 20 percent of medium income and this will be at 120 percent because that's what the d for d and redevelopment plan allow for. the remaining two 2 units will be at 80 percent bmi. let me get into what affordable unit is and allowing for density to increase for that if they increase the number of bmr units for projects. those additional bmr units do not account for so they have to be in addition to what was already required. so under the government code, the state density law, it captivates at 35 percent and provides a very specific formulae required number for additional units required. our shipyard redevelopment plan and d for d allow for density bonuses as well but lowers to 25 percent. you can't go under 35 percent for our framework. but the state density bonus law does allow for specificity for number of variations that are applied

their costs of seismic retrofitting those are second in-law units those are units that are subordinate to the compared to other units in the building because of their location in the building and on the ground floor it is usually lower ceiling heights that may have side entrances and maybe less the exposure and this ordinance restricts the size of the units to be limited by the existing footprint in the building in the existing building therefore this creates a subordinate nature and therefore those units are known to be affordable by design because of the new units being built as supervisor scott wiener mentioned this is supported by many research academy research and looking at the rental prices on the rental listing on the websites and the specification of this ordinance is similar to the castro legislation before you a year ago that allowed for similar units it will require the units to be rent controlled in the existing building and provide administration waiver for certain planning code requirements for open space and rear yard and parking the planning department and planning com

there is a 2 bedroom unit on the backside on the page we've showed on the gore you wouldn't get 7 unit on a floor you'll lose 3 unit because of that and i also said to the client i looked this and said those are a little bit dis20r9d by makes a dent in the density that's a marketing question i think other question that was brought up here and shows in that plastic bag as well as another one we said all right. take it a little bit further and get it down to see if it works we tried to put a 2 bedroom on market street and, yes, we're successful we have a 2 bedroom 8 hundred and 42 square feet with a bedroom in the book and one adjacent to it is a very poor plan that is an architect plan it is a 2 bedroom do we want to do this make the sacrifice because it's a small unique we can technically do it as you can see the core of the building and the core of the building there's no place to put it on site and it takes up 70 to 17 of the floor plan is circulation it is a difficult one we looked at it didn't brush it off we didn't say we wanted all one bedrooms we looked at it with the planning d

housing crisis but in-law units and a more flexible approach to in-law units are 1 piece of the puzzle and this legislation allows owners of properties to add additional accessory dwelling units within the existing building envelope if they are participating in the city's established and well-defined mandatory or voluntary program and we're continuing to work with the department of building inspection to establish policies and guidelines to make it easy and as smooth as possible for people for people to be able to add these units within the confines of the building code and other codes. so colleagues i want to thank everyone who helped with this legislation and colleagues i ask for your support. >> okay. supervisor supervisor kim supervisor kim. >> thank you and i want to acknowledge supervisor wiener for his work on this legislation and i'm not going to bring up in this legislation today but just want to note for the future i do think it's important for us to create ways r ways for us to increase density and create new units in san francisco that being said as we provide this valuable

is threatening not to do that. >> that is a great point, the united states at the united nations may say these resolutions could go forward. other than bad publicity how does that hurt, there are people in the united states, certainly in israel and other countries that don't pay much attention to the united nations. >> there is some element of truth to that but publicity certainly is important. the reputation that israel has in the world is important. it cannot become a pariah nation which its enemies see, that's what united states can block at the united nations, passing resolution that unilateral ly pass resolutions, to refer to international criminal court or all sorts of things could be done. >> isn't israel already a pariah state? half of the resolutions in the united nations seem to conindex israel according to some reports. it's not like the relationship is getting any better with the rest of the world right? >> well, there's no question that other states in the united states don't recognize israel's right to exist. actually the reality is that states like saudi arabia and egy

in the united states -- between the united states and britain. on the whole, it was germany that managed to enrage american public opinion much more than britain did. there were a number of reasons for this. the germans, increasingly as the war went on, allow their policy -- allowed their policy to be made by the military. the german military tended to see very much in terms of winning the war, and they tended to ignore or downplay political factors. you can see right at the beginning of the war, the germans for military reasons invaded the neutral country of belgium. whose neutrality had been guaranteed by a number of european states, including germany itself. so what germany is doing is breaking its own guarantee to belgium, invading a small country. the german invasion of belgium was going to help very significantly to tilt american opinion against germany. it outweighed the irritants of the british blockade, irritating though those were. increasingly, the american public began to see germany is something that had been dominated by militarists

and one hundred and 5 two bedroom unit unit and 99 studio units all of the unit were approved by the planning commission on may 1st, 2015 planning code section within the zoning district that the developer enters into an agreement to restrict the recommend for thirty years reduction of thirty percent in the amount of one dollar square feet only one other took advantage of those that concludes my presentation. >> colleagues i have representatives from rain tree and a i g with that are the property owners supervisor wiener. >> that was from green before. >> supervisor jane kim i want to appreciate you talking to me before this item i want to clarify for the public when i read this agreement over the weekend i was a little bit surprised to learn during the process a piece of the plan that loud the developers to reduce their inclusionary program for the insensitivetion of the neighborhood i wasn't around then but in today's market we don't have to provide any incentives for the building directors to build i hope you explain for the sake of the public a little bit of the backyard u backgr

the catch up units, do we know what type of units this would be? >> that's a question we have been in discussion a lot with the developer. we don't quite know. they have provided a very rough sense. your son -- conceptual design has information about the building with the square footage. those catch up units as stated will be on average 700 square feet per unit whether it's one or two bedrooms that remains to be determined. i would like them to come up and talk about their design process and what some of their early thinking is on the catch up units. >> brian lanar, urban. what we are, we didn't want to go ahead and start planning out the rest of the site. it's pretty important to the rest of the site to know that we are going to have the height and open space development modification before we start moving forward. we felt comfortable with the first phase moving but it's almost right after this, we'll start moving forward with the design on that and hopefully be here in the next few months. until then it's such a tricky site, it's hard to come up

at the conferences, the united states was there. the united states was often involved. i think if they had been more formally involved, it would have made the league stronger and served to educate american public opinion. it by the 1930's, the united states was in the league, i wonder if you would have had the same isolationist sentiment. there was a lot of sentiment in europe for peace. there was a huge peace ballot in britain in the 1930's were happy adult population -- half of the adult population voted in favor of peace. that does not necessarily translate into being isolationist. the united states welded it into isolationism in a way that did not happen in europe, that you can want peace but still recognize you have to be engaged in the world. i don't know. it is very difficult. i think historians are now arguing that even in the 1930's, the united states was not as isolationist as we might think. there was a lot of talk, but the united states is still involved, particularly on its own doorstep. the good neighbor policy is a 1930's policy. the united states was sti

a lot of negative peers on the unit i'm on now. so i know that if i come here, i have an opportunity to go home. >> we get up at 4:50 in the morning. is that going to be a problem? >> no, sir. >> it's a very structured environment. go to bed at the same time. there's no horseplay, absolutely no horseplay. is that going to be a problem? >> no, sir. >> 2100 is lights out, taps. there is no talking. if you was to be caught talking, the whole room gets up and does p.t. >> p.t.? >> physical training. >> would you have any problems with that? >> no, sir. >> how are you going to be able to handle taking direction and orders from other guys in your position? >> well, sir, i would think to myself if i listen to them then maybe one day i'll be able to get up there and be able to be the one. >> great answer. >> even though this offender has all the right answers, the decision to accept him into the unit is complicated. >> these juveniles come from horrible backgrounds. i tend not judge them but we want to ask ourselves, do we think they're go

united states. that's like five huge power plants. this ear 7500 megawatts at least of solar are going to be installed in the united states in next year 10000 megawatts at least but that tax break is expiring at the end of 2016. you would think that they would be in urgency here on the floor of the senate to debate the wind tax break, the solar tax break which will create upwards of 250,000 jobs in the united states. we are to have 175,000 people working in the solar industry. there is no urgency to take up wind and solar but a pipeline from canada, taking the dirtiest oil in the world, tar sands tar, think about that. the tar has to be actually melted down so it can be put into a pipeline. it is tar. the dirtiest oil in the world and a pipeline like a straw through the united states of america built right down to port arthur texas and what is so unique about port arthur texas? i will tell you right now. it's a tax-free exports on. so there is a plan for the canadians. build a pipeline like a straw

the supreme court case held that the child born in the united states of ianees immigrants from the united states. they could confer sit senship. that is not true of unauthorised children with a child. there are advantages of the role as it is understand. it's an easy role to administer. and facilitates facilitation by or into society and reduces the prospect of having an underclass which has been, for a long period of time, deprived of the rights for citizenship. is there a distinction to be made. someone that has a child in the united states, or gets a visa, declares themselves, versus someone who comes into the country across the sudden border and gives birth in a hospital in the south-west somewhere? >> there's a distinction about the 14th amendment and the context of the facilities. the operating word was discouraged. in the last immigration area this was a scixish. we have 40 million people, that abuse this privilege. obviously, if you have all numbers on this, it suggests that the numbers of foreigners that come here - it's a small number of people. it could remain steady. you could

back at the united nations. we are living in an era when anti-semitism is searching. we should -- is surging. we should all be discerned to -- we should all be discouraged. we saw rallies in paris where protesters marched on a synagogue saying " jews to the oven." we see congregants forced to walk through metal detectors to enter their synagogue. we have seen murders. the attack on the jewish school in to lose -- jewish school in toulouse. then there are the signs that we cannot see, but are no less chilling. jews thinking twice before shopping in a kosher supermarket. in 2004, all 55 countries in the organization for security and cooperation in europe convened in berlin to make an historic pledge to combat all forms of anti-semitism. when the countries reassembled last year, president obama asked me to lead the presidential delegation to the meeting. what i told the leaders gathered there is what you are you know. anti-somatic attacks are not only an attack to the jewish community, but the european liberalism a

this puts him on equal footing with the president of the united states. i wasn't going to be part of it. i didn't attend. the political theater was worthy of an oscar. it was a great speech for prime minister netanyahu's reelection in israel a good speech for speaker boehner. but it was not a good speech for the future of having a denuclearized iran. that conversation should be taking place in geneva not here in washington before the cameras. i'm afraid it created a greater schism between the president and the prime minister. and that's not good for israel and not good for world peace. >> i'm sure that the relationship which was bad to begin with is a whole lot worse right now. that personal relationship between the president of the united states and the prime minister of israel. on the substance when he said this current deal is really bad, will undermine potentially israel's very existence, what do you say? >> well, he doesn't know what the deal is. and he wouldn't be in favor of any deal. he talked about persian bazaar and you walk away and they go bac

and for our form of government in the united states the united states government does not own industries. now, some of the industries that are represented within the aec from other countries are at least partially or wholly opened by the state. there's state interest in having those countries in there to be able to develop things within the arctic. we took a different approach. first of all, because of our culture. our government does not own industries. secondly if we start getting too close with industry you start running into federal advisory committee rules that have to be complied with. so our choice whether you like it or don't like it, our choice early on was to turn this over to the chamber of commerce in alaska and the chamber overcomer selected three alaskan companies to be our representatives to the aec and the aec has. just had its first meeting. so i think there are going to be some disputes on how the aec should be used. there will be questions about how we employ it. questions about how much influence it should have on arctic council activities. >> guest: should if have di

in the united states if a carrier is flying from or two the united states and one pilot has to use the bathroom someone from the air crew is supposed to go in the cockpit so there is never just one person in there. >> guest: right. and the only exception is when one pilot comes out and they leave the cockpit doorope open but there is a food cart in front. so there is only one pilot in the cockpit but the door is open. for the public to know when the doors were designed they were designed with a logic tree so there is a mechanism for the pilot to lock out whoever is trying to get in. you don't want the bad guys protected from the people on the outside trying to get in. by having a second person in the cockpit, if the pilot was sick they could open the door. >> the pilot who was locked out should have had available a code he could punch in that would allow him to get back in but -- >> guest: the co-pilot inside all he has to do when he hears the buzzer someone is getting in he has 30 seconds to lock them out. the bolt comes in place and no one is getting in. >> what about the training pr

it could be that the man has dropped his gps unit. it's now 30 minutes after the woman reported her lost husband. a member thinks he may have spotted the missing man. he checks his photo. it seems to be him. but the man has wandered off again. the team is finally able to positively identify the missing man. the man has no idea where he was or how long he'd been missing. on this day the missing man was found. but some aren't as fortunate. as inquiries to ram union rescue continue to increase, the group plans to expand nationally and hopes to eventually become a sustainable volunteer group. it's estimated that more than 1 in 20 chinese will suffer from senile dementia by 2020. both the public and private sectors continue their efforts to deal with the situation and find the missing elderly. ♪ -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com blossoms. japan is full of fascinating nature and culture. we hope you will come see for yourself. >>> hello there. welcome to "newsline." it's thursday march 12th. i'm catherine kobayashi in tokyo. first an

instead of four units. specifically this legislation would do the following: any project that is proposing a final product of 300 square feet or less -- 3,000 square feet or less would be entitled like it is today and no change and this would ensure that people adding a bedroomoir expanding the kitchen or adding in in law unit would continue the way it is now and products with greater than 3,000 square feet the controls would apply for a single family home if it's increased more than 75% or additional unit adding by more than 100% and in those situations conditional use is required so there is significant latitude in terms of the size that it can be increased without triggering a conditional use. these controls only apply with truly dramatic expansions. on a vacant lot the controls would require conditional use only when the final project would be greater than 3,000 square feet. the legislation would generally require a rear yard open space of at least 45% of the lot area and the current requirement under t

there may be some from the united states back to canada but mostly it is from canada back to the united states. it is not going to be easy because it is not automatic for some of these. what is renewable, what is not. the power plants, there is an opportunity there. i want to talk about having that conversation which is really about expanding that clean energy portfolio. we're going to have difficult conversations of a fossil fuel but they do not have to be wrapped up together. >> so they consider hydro power renewable? >> it is generally considered renewable. >> i know, but sometimes we have some saying that hydro is not renewable, that only wind and solar is renewable.
