6:02 pm
violence to look at preventative measures. >> the next step is to to to to money where your mouth is. that is to and sure we put resources here. we can't do this with just verbal declarations. the county has reserves for a rainy day. >> the county sheriff told me the resolution certainly raises public awareness. if that leads to prevention and enforcement, it could make difference. tonight the san jose city council will consider a new proposal to help reduce gun violence. the measure would require all gunowners in the city to carry liability insurance and pay an annual fee that would go
6:03 pm
towards supporting critical emergency medical and police response. if approved, san jose would be the first city in the state to implement such a law. >> we have to do more to ensure rules are properly followed by those who choose to exercise their right to own a gun. >> san jose became one of the few cities in the nation to require gunshots to require off firearm transactions. the illegal purchase of a firearm by one person for another. gun violence caused san jose taxpayers $442 million annuallyy >> a survey released by the san francisco chamber of commerce found 70% of people said their quality of life has gotten worse in the past few years. public safety is one of many factors. the end melendez is in the newsroom with more on what people are sayingare >> the survey found homelessness and street behavior, along with crime in the open air drug market are by far the top concerns much more than housing affordability where the or the cost of living. >> this video of a series of car break-ins was taken in october 2019.
6:04 pm
this continues to happen in every neighborhood in san francisco. as many san franciscans will tell you, this is my garage door. we have been broken into twice. let me show you. first in june 2020, someone broke the glass panel to reach the emergency cord in order to open it and get in. does that sound familiar? it happens a lot. in the meantime, we have placed this wood panel to cover the whole. six months later, someone did it again. this time they removed the wood panel and used a stepstool to get an. >> at this point we are not replacing the wood panel. by the way, every time this has happened, i reported it to police because i want to be a statistic. >> we have caught people on camera stealing and scooping out the front of our home. >> everyone everyone everyone e
6:05 pm
asian hate crimes and car break- ins and shoplifting see in stores. that is scary for residents and tourists. >> according to a survey, 44% of voters say they are likely to move out of san francisco in the next few years.few years.fe. >> supervisor matt haney says the city is expanding the community safety patrols and street ambassadors to include not only the tenderloin and midmarket areas but also in downtown san francisco and fisherman's wharf. >> it is not only on the from. you have to get people into treatment. you have to get people into housing. you have to get mental health care. >> the vast majority of those surveyed say were homeless services opening homeless shelters and puttinggg caseworkers on the streets should be a high priority. >> from that survey, 60% say
6:06 pm
maintaining funding funding for police academy classes with a high priority you. this afternoon abc7 news was told in the budget they have agreed to fund two classes the first year and then reduce it to one the following year. they have agreed to reduce the police departments overtime ove budget. stay with us for a moment. we will have a conversation about this. we are bringing in film it's here. feel, what do you see as the number one issue when it comes to these quality-of-life issues? >> it was interesting. it was pre-pandemic the biggest issue in san francisco was not the quality of life necessarily but the cost of living here. housing on the high cost of living were repeatedly cited as the toughest problems facing people of all ages,all ages,all, all divides. now, it is a question of safety, how people feel. they want answers to that. that is what we are doing when we are talking about building a better bay area. you are trying to present all sides. leanna, when you talk to people
6:07 pm
what do they see as the balance going forward? how do they they they they they more police but more services? what is it they want? >> they want both teams. in that survey they were very adamant. we need to put more money toward helping those people who are homeless. we need to take care of people with mental illness and we have to do something about those with drug addictions. at the same time they are very clear. the vast majority say we have to increase patrols. we want to see more police in our neighborhoods and also in those high crime areas. it is about timing right now. people realize we have more guns out in the streets. we also have drug addictions happening. the exchange of drugs. we need police out there to do their job
6:08 pm
it is all about timing. now is not the time, they believe, to take money away from police department. >> we were talking about this earlier. you said you lived in new york city from the 90s and you are seeing parallels. >> that is right. in the late 80s early 90s, something very similar to what is happening here in san francisco was occurring in new york city where you would see car break-ins. remember the signs that a said no radio inside on nothing inside? every car had a that. there were so many break-ins. that was due in large part to the crack epidemic. also, new york cityrk cityrk ciy lot of people to prisons. that was of course very controversial. here in san francisco we have fenton all and heroine. you know, during covid, it was very hard to reach these people, the people who do the outreach. >> also, as you pointed out, what new york city did is it send people to jail.
6:09 pm
had a broken window policy. we did that here in the 90s as well in oakland oakland oaklandk controversial and it was stopped. it was seen as being as much of a deterrent sometimes or a hindrance. it was just unfair. nf people come to the bay area to do sideshows and things like that because they know they can. people decriminalize drugs and a side of that youthat youthat u supply on the streets because it is easier to sell it. what we do is we make car break- ins, possibly misdemeanors rather than felonies. that encourages people to do it if they don't feel like they are going to get caught. you are doing things for good intention to try to give somebody a second break to get better but there is a possibility that would lead to a different reaction. we are facing that right now because when it comes to funding, if you say we are putting the money there, does that mean we come back on police? the unintended consequence conse
6:10 pm
it be more crime in the short order? >> there are no simple answers. thank you for being here to discuss this. we will talk about this in the coming days i am sure. in san francisco's office of the comptroller they conduct a survey every two years to assess how people feel about living here. since 2005 the survey has asked how likely you are to move out. 36% of people say they are very or somewhat likely to move out of the next three years. that percentage has been creeping up. 31% in 2017, 29% in 2015, 20% in 2013. 10 years ago in 2011, 25% say they were likely to again, this is a survey about how people feel not what they actually do but this gives you some perspective. overall, san francisco's population in the past decade has increased. coronavirus cases stemming from the delta variant have doubled in the past month. coming up, just how far the

fire season is well underway in california. in the northern part of the statements if you county, the heat and high winds have caused the lava 8000 people have been forced to evacuate because of the flames. firefighters are dealing with
6:14 pm
rugged terrain there. the fire is near mount shasta and jumped highway 97 north. president biden is going to talk with governor newsome and other western leaders tomorrow about this fire season. our health is a part of building a better bay area especially during the coronavirus pandemic. after enjoying a long steady decline in activity, we are seeing some troubling signs. the number of hospitalized patients climbed over 1000 today pico dropped below the threshold for the first time two weeks ago. the seven day test positivity rate is up to 1.2%. to take a look at this graph. it is showing new cases diagnosed in the bay area. we are much lower than the winter peak but in the last few weeks, the rolling average has . concerns over the delta variant have prompted the world health organization to release new masking guidance. the w.h.o announced vaccinated people should wear masks indoors contradicting the cdc. health officials in l.a. county are following suit. is the bay area next? stephanie sierra spoke with public health officials about what we can expect. ex
6:15 pm
stephanie? >> reporter: opinions certainly are mixed. it is understandably becoming confusing for people with all of these mixed messaging. public health officials in the bay area say even the vaccination rates are better than before, if we are not careful, the delta variant could become a major setback. california is bracing for the latest covid battlecovid baa delta variant. it has spread to more than 80 countries and the world health organization predicts it will be the most dominant infectious strain in the u.s. >> the delta variant is news. 77% were transmissible and the earliest rains we are dealing with. dr. george rutherford said the number of california cases stemming from the delta variant will most likely double within the next month. >> concern here is we can see small clusters of the delta variant among people who are unvaccinated are not fully vaccinated congregate together. we are particularly concerned about younger adults who have
6:16 pm
been slower to take up vaccination. >> state data shows in may,in mm delta variant made up 4.7% of california's covid cases. this month, the number has more than tripled. >> the best way to prevent the delta variance is to get vaccinated. >> the w.h.o says you should still stay masked indoors. solano county health officer dr. christine wu doesn't expect the bay area to follow suit. >> they made the recommendation because they have to provide guidance globally. many of the countries do not have the level of vaccination we have in the u.s. as well as in california. >> california is close to reaching 20 million people fully vaccinated. it is a rate that has slowed recently. especially in northern counties surrounding mendocino. they are covered in gray and white indicating only 20%-40% of the county's population is vaccinated. >> as a stated is
6:17 pm
possible. a backtrack for the bay area is it likely. >> dr. rutherford said as we near the end of growing season the people are coming in to help with harvest there may be some migration patterns i could trigger additional outbreaks. of course the best way to prevent that is to get those vaccination numbers up. thank you so much stephanie. on abc7 is at 4:00 i spoke with dr. patel, a part of our vaccine team about this and i asked him about mask wearing. >> if you have any doubt or concern or you live with people that are vaccinated or at risk it is reasonable to wear a mask. i don't think we should be judging one another for doing that. we are approaching 60%-70% of people with at least one shot or more than that.
6:18 pm
it is reasonable for people to say in this situation we are okay, take the mask up. >> you can send your questions about coronavirus abc7news.com. voters in alameda county are going to the polls to elect a new assembly member. nine candidates on the ballot looking to replace democrat rob bonta. if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote, a runoff between the top two finishers will be held - i'm norm. - i'm szasz.

or to our unborn child. >> that is former stockton mayor michael tubbs. spoke exclusively with julian glover who now joins us live. >> julian, even a former mayor feels he has been discriminated against. >> that is exactly right. it goes to show the potential discrimination is an issue in all walks of life are dealing with. we have been reporting on this for months now. homes valued for lesson the owners believe the color of their skin is a big fat. in the tubbs case the appraisal the former mayor and his wife thought was to the was to delay the sale of their home. >> you can be a victim of racism. is not about how much you make or where you live. it is not about where you went to school. it is about your race. >> former stockton mayor michael tubbs and his wife learned that lesson the hard way when putting the home on the market in february. the have since relocated to los
6:31 pm
angeles. i spoke exclusively to the couple via zoom. >> up at the home on the market for $599,000, $1000 less than a home on the same block sold four weeks earlier. >> in a week we had two bids. >> they were even higher than what we were asking for. >> $610,000. when the buyers lender ordered an appraisal, it was appraised for $540,000. that is $70,000 less than the offer place on the home and $87,000 less than say lowe's estimated value listed at $627,000 in february. >> our time was wasted and so much stress was put on our shoulders but it was the same for them. their plans were completely thrown off. >> given the difference the prospective buyers were unable to close the deal after their lender backed out. they planned on using the equity in that property for a down payment on a new los
6:32 pm
angeles home. >> at first i thought it was a joke. i said there is no way the appraiser looked at our house, looked at the neighborhood and said the house was only worth $540,000. >> i recently spoke on the phone with the appraiser and asked why a home that sold for $630,000 a month earlier wasn't included on the report but a home sold a year ago was included as well as other items . the appraiser says they never saw that rebuttal and if the tubbs have any questions about the appraisal report they should file a formal complaint with the state of california. when i asked the appraiser what they thought about the allegations of discrimination, the said they were shocked they were playing the race card. >> we need to equip our

6:35 pm
gambled it away, not because we spent it on drugs and alcohol. we lost because we were appraised at a lower value that is consistent with thewith thewe we see across this country. >> they now intend to file a formal complaint with the state and also heard. as we continue to report on the stories it is so important that you know your rights which includes asking for appraisal report and requesting a reconsideration of value if you get hit with an appraisal lower-than-expected. you do not have a right to the buyers appraisal when you are selling your home so the tubbs, they were lucky the buyers were kind enough to share the appraisal with them in this case. i can't get over the fact that he was accused of playing the race card. >> we will stay on top of this. >> great reporting, julian. thank you. let's go to a heartwarming update. generous viewers are helping build a better bay area. it is a story about renters eviction protection yesterday. in it we introduced you to
