getting out and living a little bit. >> we've got a nice view, breed some fresh air. >> everything is slowly opening back up so that makes me happy. >> no more physical distancing requirements, no more caps on occupancy . >> the governor says the reopening of california means it's time to travel again . >> our gate is open in san francisco. >> local tourism leaders are rolling out the red carpet . >> people can feel it safe to travel, is probably the most safe place in the united states. >> . >> after travel spending plummeted almost 55% overnight, this new ad campaign is calling all californians to plan a trip within state lines to help boost the economy . >> it's like a modern-day act

of patriotism if we can spend those dollars here, the failure california bucket list. >> but wait new york city want some love, too. the big apple running these ads, here in the bay area. the governor says don't believe it . >> with all due respect, eat your heart out, united states, there's no state in america that has more in terms of experiences . >> after 10 years of record travel spending the state as a long way to come back. it estimates it will take four years to bounce back completely to those pre-pandemic levels. we are hearing that california may be battling a perception problem when it comes to travel, can you explain that? >> yeah, for sure, the visit california ceo says they recently did a survey in california is perceived to be less travel ready in fact the least travel ready destination of anywhere in the united states

. florida is perceived to be more travel ready than california. that is perhaps because of all the restrictions that we have seen, covid wise, we hope that will change after june 15 more people start to think about travel and more people start to think about coming to the bay area. >> cornell, thank you . many cities throughout the bay area are considering the reversal of street closures that were made of course to accommodate outdoor dining but in one south bay city, one proposal has drawn mixed reaction. more from palo alto. >> throughout the covid-19 pandemic, visitors have enjoyed car free stretches of outdoor dining . >> i think it offers a nice unique stanford field to be able to walk around in the street, it has that feel almost . >> as california prepares to

fully reopen, bay area cities that chose to close some of its streets to traffic are faced with a looming decision as many debate what should stay or go in the return to normalcy . >> this is an easily accessible place. you get out of your car and walk through an alley and you are near 30 restaurants. >> it would be a great boulevard for pedestrians. so i think by accident, we are seeing that happen now. and really packed and vibrant . >> but on university avenue, a different story, as a number of businesses have struggled to attract visitors to the downtown core. while many restaurants the outdoor dining has been a lifeline, other retailers believe the street closures have done more harm than good. and report to city staff, a consumer electronics store said sales have dropped a palo alto location by 92% since the start

of the pandemic. >> i think there's a lot of opportunity to optimize this . >> the city councilmember says next week the council will consider a plan to reopen university avenue by july in california avenue by september. he said it's important to steer clear of a one-size-fits-all approach. >> we have to really understand the dynamics of each of the businesses, and it's not a blanket, keep it exactly the way it is, a hybrid is probably the best solution. oakland mayor schaff showed her thoughts about today on midday live. >> i'm looking forward to us getting our small businesses backup and running, they've had such a hard year and while we've seen some great accomplishments with things like online retail, i've become a huge fan of keep

alive, it's online shopping for your local stores in oakland. i want to see those owners smiles, i want to be in person again. >> the mayor also talked about what she hopes we have learned from the pandemic. >> i think there are some valuable lessons, as well as really doubling down on the inequitable disparities that were just so exacerbated during covid. these are all things that we must commit ourselves to never seeing again. >> people need to remember the life lessons of slowing down, spending time with family and attending to our mental and physical needs. you better keep your masks handy if you plan on mass transit, there still required on buses and trains including bart, uni and as at the airports. ac transit will require passengers to stay at least three feet apart instead of six, muni will no longer require social distancing. and you'll be able to take off the masks at disneyland starting tomorrow. that's if you are vaccinated. children 2 and up who are not

vaccinated will still be required to continue wearing face coverings indoors. disneyland will continue using its preservation system, disney is the parent company of abc 7 . the 49ers announced that the mass vaccination site at levi stadium will days. cases in santa clara county have slowed to less than 2 per day, for every 100,000 people. the county will focus on smaller vaccination sites in the community. a fourth covid-19 vaccine could be coming soon. novavax is planning to file for emergency use authorization in the next few months. the company said its vaccine is 100% effective, 100%, and preventing moderate or severe disease . >> dr. patel is a key member of our abc 7 vaccine team. let's start with this new vaccine. how important is it to have yet another version? >> not only do i think it's important, because that's just more options for people but i

think it's important to make sure people understand why it's important to still go out and get the vaccine. even the we are celebrating reopening we are talking about cases going down, i want to remind people that there are variants still out there and you can't just watch and wait and look to see if there's an outbreak, it's at least 4 to 6 weeks after your first shot before you are fully protected. so that is the message we need to keep reminding people about. am hoping this improves global equity. i've said that 1000 times. as i see more manufacturers pushing a vaccine to market, i hope that means more for the world and not just the united states. >> you mentioned the new variant, this is really emerging in a significant way in europe and uk. how are you how concerned are you about this new variant? >> everyone who has read about the variant including myself, is concerned, both because of what the variant is capable of doing but also in which the scenario in which the variant would spread. i read this from nature magazine. if you imagine a key going into

a door and turning the deadbolt, that is essentially an analogy for how the virus can infect ourselves, the delta variant is a more efficient key to get into ourselves and cause infection. if we create a scenario where they are not vaccinated, have a more transmissible variant, that's better at infecting people and spreading, that is a cause for concern. i hope people are paying attention but also hope that public health entities are watching the variant and we are tracking and doing the best we can to inform people . >> that's a great analogy and puts it into perspective . >> i stole it, i stole the analogy. >> let's talk about the reopening, do you think the state is going about this the right way? >> you know, i think we are

80%, i'm throwing that out there, doing this the right way, in terms of following the signs and showing that there is a benefit to numbers are high in california, case rates are down, but all over the state, but i think the one little area that is lacking is the infrastructure, the lack of infrastructure i should say, for businesses out there to kind of mandate how they will check for vaccination status. and i think that's one big piece , we need to look to see what businesses are going to be facing in the near future in san francisco, people are very responsible, in terms of getting vaccinated but wearing a mask, i don't think it's much of an issue here but i think it could be throughout the state. that is just one small asterix . >> 15 seconds, should we be concerned about a relapse of some kind? >> we should be absolutely concerned about the potential for relapse. i don't want people to freak out but the setting is therefore a relapse. is it especially in fall and winter . >> thanks so much. great to see you . >> we are going to disneyland,

right? >> i can't wait to find out more about the reopening all of this started when we discovered the benefits of local, raw honey for our family. and then we said "hey, you know what? this is a business right here." we went out and started to sell it. to help us get going, we got the chase business complete banking ℠ account. it's more than a bank account. which lets us take card payments anytime, anywhere, and get same-day deposits at no extra cost. it's more than honey. it's about building something for our family that will endure.

a group of city councilmembers is advocating for some very big changes to the mayor's budget. there proposing amendments that would change the city's approach to public safety. oakland city council president has said that 75% of police calls are for noncriminal issues. >> these are police officers who are responding to blocked driveways, false alarms, disturbances. week, with this budget will focus our police on what they do best which is responding to and solving serious and violent crime. >> one of the proposals would reduce or defer police academies , new money would go toward affordable housing, providing sanitation at the city's 100 homeless encampments, reopening parks and expanding library hours. we've reached out to the mayor's office for comment but we haven't heard back yet. charge in looking at possible discrimination in the home

appraisal process. families of color in the bay area upset after having their homes value for less than they believe the color of their skin is a big factor. another homeowner is sharing his story, race and culture reporter julian glover is live and after the owner staged his home differently a second time, lo and behold the appraised value shot up $150,000. >> that's right dan, $150,000 difference, the owner believes it's because of different color of skin, he reached out to me after seeing several of my previous stories of suspected discrimination the process, he took cues from a marin city family who we covered several months ago and had a friend who look different from him stand in for him after he felt his home was undervalued . >> once my children saw it, they were like okay, that's the one . >> for single father celine, the moment he saw this house he

knew was home. >> my children made the decision for me. >> he purchased the property in 2019 for 413 front of $30,000, he was aware the property would need work. >> we redid the children's bedrooms, read investors, new roof, but this new gate in front . >> as he made improvements to the home, real estate values climbed steadily and interest rates fell. he decided to refinance to beat his current mortgage rate. the first appraisal in november 2020 came in at $575,000 after filing a rebuttal. but he was convinced he could find a better rate with a different lender. then, he got hit with a $480,000 appraisal this january while looking into an fha loan. he was stunned . >> it's hard to prove what was in the other gentlemen's intentions but even if it was just negligence or incompetence, it was to a level that it had to be something more .

>> despite him requesting a reevaluation of value, the appraiser declined to adjust the value. the appraiser said there were no updates to the home in the past 15 years, even though he said he informed the appraiser beforehand, the roof was replaced months earlier . >> this is julian glover from abc 7 news. i reached out to the appraiser and did not hear back, the email listed also bounced back. he stuck with a lender and was able to get a new appraisal by applying for a conventional loan. this time, he had a plan. he remembered the austin family from marin city staged their home to appear that the residents were white. >> i had a conversation with one of her white friends and

she was like okay, i will bring over pictures of my family. the home appraised for $493,000 more. >> that's part of the reason i wanted to do this. because watching those stories kind of helped me through the process . >> a realtor helped him stage the home. >> you might want to take down photos, you may want someone else to step in and be there during the actual appraisal. >> then he asked his coworkers ethnically ambiguous daughter as he put it if she would stand in for him on the day of the puzzle appraisal . >> i have a lot of privilege, a fair skinned white individual if i can use my privilege to help other people in the community, then why not? >> the appraised value $630,000, two appraisals, two months apart, $150,000 difference. he thinks was largely because of race. >> it doesn't feel good. so to have somebody's comment stand in and we get to all of a sudden a higher value . >> the big difference we noted

where the comparable homes selected. the average adjusted home value of the six comps listed for the january appraisal is $420,000, versus an average adjusted home value of $625,000 in the most recent appraisal meaning the comps selected by the january appraiser or worth $197,000 less, the comparable homes selected in the appraisal focuses on areas north and west of the appraisal >> it's like insult to injury . >> after 10 months he's hopeful that he will finally be able to refinance the property to lower his mortgage and help pay for additional improvements. he's also hopeful to join the list of families who have share their story with me to help lead to a solution . >> becoming a collective, everybody together. so that is probably the only way that any real change is going to happen.

>> after 10 months of back-and- forth, he tells me he is now finally clear to mortgage saving him a lot of money every month on that mortgage payment, also allowing them to take money out so we can make some more improvements to his home. and pay down debt as well. >> julian, thank you so much. you can contact julian through social media, he does so many great stories. and he's always looking for more, so reach out on twitter and facebook. >> he will love to hear from you. fire season already going strong and the words of warning about climate change as we head into the hot summer months, stay with us. we ar

crews from cal fire and the san jose fire department made quick work of a grass fire on the southern edge of the city. it was near silicon valley road, not far from the residential area. it burned about 30 acres before it was brought under control. 30s believe it was started by metallic balloons that came in contact with transmission lines and that does happen from time to time. they end up sparking.

but if course, thank goodness the wind wasn't too bad . >> speaking of possible fires in the days ahead, it's going to get warm. select check in with drew about the conditions . >> temperatures were average, the wind was light and you can see how high are fire danger is under normal conditions with the hotter temperatures moving in later this weekend a heat wave is on its way. a little bit of fog earlier this morning, we had aggressive drizzle along the coast. we had a couple hundred 7 inch of drizzle along the coast and parts of the east bay but are marine layer as well with the temperatures moving in, fog is going to be hard to come by over the next several days. it's a really pleasant afternoon when we talk about june, 80 in concord, 75 in san jose, 78 in santa rosa, 70 the temperature in san mateo. let's talk about that marine layer that is getting compressed, it's shrinking, so not nearly as foggy of a start

to our day tomorrow as we have this morning, looks like the fog is really just confined to the immediate coastline and that is it. throughout the later morning and early afternoon, talking about tons of sunshine on the way. lowering humidity levels, tonight, you probably feel the drier air moving in, and tonight will find cooler temperatures compared to last night. upper 40s to mid-50s under mainly clear skies. that so we will dropped to first thing tomorrow morning. tomorrow we will notice warmer weather moves in, it's not excessively hot but we will see some 90s pop up, antioch and fairfield, northbay, 80s and 70s, 71 in the city tomorrow, 80 in san jose, the coast, it's breezy tomorrow, and cooler, 64, the high for half moon bay but by wednesday, this is when we see the beginning of a heat wave, so a heat advisory will go into effect wednesday for

much of the northbay, the inland east bay and much of the southbay. that means after temperatures getting into the mid to upper 90s but even hotter temperatures move in on thursday and friday. so for the inland east bay and the northbay mountains to end the week we have an excessive heat warning and what that means for areas shaded in pink that means concord, walnut creek, temperatures likely exceeding 100 degrees by thursday afternoon. future track temperatures, we jump into thursday, there you can see the intense heat away from the coast, triple digit temperatures in many cities. notice though around the immediate bay shoreline we are warm, mainly in the 80s, but we are not excessively hot, thanks to an onshore flow away from the coast, it's going to be hot by thursday afternoon. here's the 7-day forecast, warming begins tomorrow, there's the moderate heat risk , thursday is really the hottest day we have, friday is no treat before we cool down for the upcoming weekend by the way summer begins at 8:31 on sunday. >> oh wow .

all week we are celebrating juneteenth, and looking at the origin of that historic day and the struggles endured by black people in this country. >> juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the ending of slavery in the united states. president lincoln signed >>'s emancipation proclamation freeing enslaved africans united states in 1852 in the 13th amendment passed congress officially ending slavery in 1863 but it would take years

for word to spread. on june 19, 1865, union soldiers led by gordon granger landed at galveston texas with the news that the civil war was over and the roughly 250 thousand enslaved people there were now free. the orders read, the people of texas are informed that in accordance with the proclamation from the executive of the united states, all slaves are free. this involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves and the connection hereto for existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. the freedmen are advised to remain quietly at the present homes and work for wages. they are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere. you might be wondering why it took so long to spread the word.

general robert e lee surrendered in april 1865 but union troops didn't arrive until june. the emancipation proclamation only freed enslaved africans in the confederate states liberated by troops. and that didn't include texas. those slaves were lawfully free they were far from free. many were even punished for trying to take advantage of their new rights. one former slave recalled seeing people shot and hanged after trying to escape to freedom. and another shared an account of being asked to work in another six years and being whipped, just like she was before. >> even though the newly freed in texas didn't receive the full benefits or freedom, they turned the day into a celebration. june 19 was coined, juneteenth, blending of the word

19. every year juneteenth became a chance for people to get together with family members, measure progress against freedom and teach rising generations the importance of self-improvement. they would read the emancipation proclamation, hear sermons, share meals and play games. and many of those same traditions carry-on today and juneteenth celebrations across the country. texas became the first state to make juneteenth an official holiday in 1980. since then, 46 other states and the district of columbia have recognized state holiday or holiday observance. although not a federal holiday, many global companies like twitter, square, nike and lyft have made the day a company holiday in the wake of protests to end systemic racism, sparked by the death of george floyd in minneapolis, minnesota. today, more than 150 years after celebrations began, june 19 is about remembering the past, and moving toward a future that involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property, between former masters and slaves. juneteenth, a celebration of freedom and the fight for its

fulfillment. >> and our coverage of juneteenth continues all week long as i said, tomorrow, how to talk to your children about juneteenth, wednesday, the push to get reparations in california, thursday, juneteenth art, friday, the opportunities for all program and on saturday, what does black freedom look like, and on friday 9:00, don't miss juneteenth, and evening of celebration and resilience, a soul of a nation special . the city is calling on young people to take action declaring today, youth civic engagement day . >> we are proclaiming that everyone, encourage young people to raise their voices, to be heard, to anticipate in the future of your city and your nation. >> the mayor's office of engagement

that is, is partnering with several community groups and nonprofits to highlight the importance of youth civic participation. and on of the

advanced non-small cell lung cancer can change everything. but your first treatment could be a chemo-free combination of two immunotherapies that works differently. it could mean a chance to live longer. opdivo plus yervoy is for adults newly diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, tests positive for pd-l1, and does not have an abnormal egfr or alk gene. it's the only fda-approved combination of two immunotherapies. opdivo plus yervoy equals... a chance for more time together. more family time.

more quiet time. opdivo and yervoy can cause your immune system to harm healthy parts of your body during and after treatment. these problems can be severe and lead to death. see your doctor right away if you have a cough; chest pain; shortness of breath; irregular heartbeat; diarrhea; constipation; severe stomach pain, nausea or vomiting; dizziness; fainting; eye problems; extreme tiredness; changes in appetite, thirst or urine; rash; itching; confusion; memory problems; muscle pain or weakness; joint pain; flushing; or fever. these are not all the possible side effects. problems can occur together and more often when opdivo is used with yervoy. tell your doctor about all medical conditions including immune or nervous system problems, if you've had or plan to have an organ or stem cell transplant, or received chest radiation. here's to a chance to live longer. ask your doctor about chemo-free opdivo plus yervoy. thank you to all those in our clinical trials.

day for california, the state will fully reopen the economy, most of the restrictions we've all been living with since march of last year will be lifted and today governor newsom said the reopening is made possible by californians who did their part. it's important to note, you will still need to keep your masks and they will still be required on public transport, airports and hospitals among other locations but starting tomorrow, we, in earnest, begin to get what are you thinking about tonight? >> this 15 month journey is coming to an end at midnight, the symbolism there, it's encouraging, i'm excited, i'm ready, i think the biggest thing i'm looking forward to, i would say, just getting back to the gym, i haven't done that but getting back into the gym and getting back into a routine that i haven't done in the past few months, getting back to what we knew back in early 2020 . >> it seems like a fading memory, chris you will be

excited to get back to regular sporting events . >> are you reading my mind? i asked both managers of the giants and the a's about their excitement, and of both teams have it 85% vaccination level, so they are able to move around without restrictions but at the end of the month on the first friday, the last friday of the month, the bay bridge series, oracle p■ark ill e pen, no restrictions, that's going to be a huge series here maybe 41,000, that'll be a lot to see . >> i'm looking forward to being one of the 10 winners tomorrow of the $1 million vaccination jackpot. >> i'm so nervous, i won't answer the phone. >> well the coronavirus shutdown has created a problem for the girl scouts, lots of unsold cookies. nationally, the girl scouts typically sell around 200 million boxes per year but this

year, with the uncertainty around restrictions, the they're left with around 15 million unsold cookies so, some scouts are trying to get rid of the extras but they don't last forever. the cookies only have a shelf life of 12 months, so if your girl scout is still selling, just by some, they are amazing and you know the girls work so hard. >> ago thin mints! >> is that your favorite? samoa's. i love thin mints in the freezer, the girl scouts in my neighborhood are so smart, they would set out muni and that was the smartest thing, and we missed it this year and i missed getting my cookies so i've got to find a way somehow to get me a box . >> and chris, my little niece, she went online, she built a website or her mom helps but it's a whole website, so she actually pushed a lot of sales

that way, during the pandemic. >> ab just put them outside oracle park when the big game, 41,000 customers. you are not going to believe what someone just paid for house plant. it may be a little hard to see here. this plant, but you can't miss that price, 27,100 new zealand dollars, that's more than $19,000 american. the plant is very rare, it was put up for bid on trade me a new zealand oxen site, they said it's the most anyone has plate paid for house plant on their site. i don't know but any of you but i would be terrified that . >> you would kill it, do you think? >> i would forget to water it for two days and it dies on me . >> i don't have a green thumb at all. i can barely take care of a succulent

kitchen counter. it's not for me, plans are not my thing but you know, i get that someone is excited about something so rare. i don't think i'd be excited about something that could die and i would lose my mind. >> how about you, chris? >> drew took the words out of my mouth. i would need to win the vaccine lottery to think about spending money on a plant like that . >> i walk right on by and go, that's a two dollar plant. >> i'm impressed . a do you want to take a guess at what america's favorite vegetable is? george it shall be bush hated it. there it is. rockaway. the main reason given by those surveyed i green giant was the taste, what? carrots came in second and corn was third, what? two favorites from previous listed not make the cut, cucumbers and tomatoes. broccoli has held the top spot for a few years, corn or carrots could be the new number 1, yeah, i mean, what do you think, it's not that i dislike broccoli but i don't know, -- >> i know i sound trendy

i've always loved brussels sprouts and kale. >> i think a tie would be corn, especially in the summer. i eat so much corn, so i have a tie, i would never want a tomato though. i don't crave to motivate tomatoes at all. >> i actually love broccoli but not cooked. i love it in a salad, corn and carrots are my favorite vegetable. >> i think green beans are missing, too. fine, thin mint vegetables! let's go back to the cookies . >> i didn't realize samoa's were a vegetable. i don't even know how it snuck
