about this. it hasn't happened yet in san francisco, and for that to happen, a lot has to change. the way it would work is if someone sees a car blocking the bike line, they would take a photo to the car, send the photo to smt a, and they could intentionally give the person a ticket for blocking the bike laid and the person would get paid for reporting it. it is a common site, cars blocking bike lanes, leaving cyclists with one option. >> you got to go around them and get -- and worry about getting hit with a car. i've never seen a car get a ticket for double parking. i've never seen it. >> what is the solution? during the latest san francisco board of supervisors neighborhood services and safety committee meeting, the idea of offering cash to those who report bike lane violations by sending a photo to sfmta came up. a proposal inspired by a bill in new york city. but how would a bounty of bike

lane violations work? >> if there is a car blocking this area, you would want them to take a photo of that? >> i don't know that's what i want. i want a consequence. i want some expectation by the driver that they may get a ticket. reporter: according to data, there has been a dramatic 92% decrease in traffic violations in the last seven years. this supervisor says that is because fewer officers are giving out tickets. there has also been a decline in officers overall. nearly 30 traffic-related deaths are still happening every year. >> i think we need to do something about the enforcement perspective for people parked in the bike lanes and i think there are different options. a bounty is one, automatic enforcement with cameras is another. reporter: what do you think about the potential of somebody taking a photo of a car blocking the bike lane? >> i think it could be beneficial, for the pedicabbers

especially, and to avoid the danger of some one in the bike lane. reporter: in a statement, sf mta said in part, we want to make sure equity is at the center of any enforcement effort and we want to work more closely with the cycling community to identify areas for enforcement and deterrence of bike lane blocking. but not everyone agrees. this san francisco resident use a bounty for traffic violations as a complicatedole driven lyfte parking is how the city functions. reporter: in order for a bounty on bike violations to become reality, a state law would have to change. but again, it is a possibility, but it could take years for this to become reality. in san francisco, luz pena. kristen: new developments in the cereal harasser cases steering up social media and san francisco. san francisco police have

obtained an arrest warrant for bill hobbs, linked to a series of incidents across the city. women say he has followed them, grabbed them, touch them or tried to kiss him and at least six have filed police reports. the arrest warrant contains various charges. he served a few months in jail for attacking a teenager but the -- but that was dismissed. larry: kaiser health care workers have been on the picket line for two months, and both sides are hoping a third-party mediator can broker a deal. what do we want? >> patient care! reporter: a chance on picket lines across the bay area for 61 days. >> at that it was going to go two or three weeks. i never thought we would still be out two months later. reporter: these kaiser permanente mental health care

workers are still walking the picket line outside of kaiser santa rosa medical center. 2000 therapists and counselors statewide went on strike in august, manning increased staffing and improved access to care for patients, some who must wait months for appointments. >> the primary reason we are striking is we as clinicians don't feel we are offering a reasonable standard of care to our patients. reporter: in oakland, members of the national union of health care workers walks this picket line. despite ongoing negotiations, no deal has been reached. kaiser says about 72% of striking workers have returned to the job. the union says it can't verify that number but agrees many have bills to pay. >> it is not feasible for everybody, and especially two months without pay. we have to stand up and do what is right. reporter: in a statement to abc 7, kaiser permanente said after much back and forth, we are at a point where to move this forward

and find a solution, we need an independent third-party mediator. we are committed to work with the mediator to resolve issues, meet therapist needs and meet patient needs. we learned that mediator will be sacramento mayor darrell steinberg, who has brokered deals between unions and management before. >> in 2015, on the eve of an open ended strike, darrell steinberg mediated a settlement for our contract back then. reporter: hre a aee can be reacd tolpg tien aillio t go distanceowev lon we are continus fight until kaiser is willing to work with us to create a better mental health system. this is not working for anyone. reporter: in santa rosa, cornell barnard. kristen: that was cornell barnard reporting. a dramatic scene outside a senior living facility in oakland.

emergency system went off and told everybody there was an emergency, but shelter-in-place reporter: this woman lives on the second floor and said that water started to flooded her apartment and she decided not to wait. >> when i was finding an inch or so of water coming in, i said never mind sheltering in place, and i put on my good walking shoes and found my way out. reporter: officials say more than 80 people were evacuated and the battalion chief says there were challenges early on as well. a standpipe system is used in multistory buildings to allow firefighters to connect hoses. similar to a fire hydrant. because these are two buildings connected together, that created confusion. >> because of the age of this building, it still had the old one set of pipes for one building and another for another building. it took a minute to get that

into place and identify where the water was coming from. reporter: he says there was heavy smoke and fire damage on the fifth floor and water damage to lower levels, which means residents likely won't be able to return anytime soon. abc7news prude kristen: -- abc7news. kristen: to that horrible smell in crockett coming from the wastewater treatment plant. as of today, contra costa health communities and 10 used to detect elevated levels of hydrogen sulfide from the plan. in a meeting today, officials reassured residents that no one was at risk. >> there are times when you may smell hydrogen sulfide, or community members may smell hydrogen sulfide, the rotten egg odor, that doesn't necessarily mean they are being exposed or it is a public concern. kristen: the odor could last for another week. larry: new details and the effort to recall a member of the

so might as well cut them up and put them into chips. i remember the very first bag. reporter: in the 1960's, the packaging and mass production of tortilla chips did not exist here. >> their was 20 has and chips made out of potato from frito-lay, but there were no tortilla chips. reporter: this is the first time tessa sanchez allowed a news crew inside their facility to see the process. >> old-fashioned style, we get the corn, boil it for three hours, grind it, soften it, warm it into a tortilla, fry it, salt it. reporter: their size is impressive, and almost 100 years since his grandfather sold the forced -- the first tortilla from home, now two-tier chips can be found across the country.

i'm karen. i'm living with hiv and i'm on cabenuva. for adults who are undetectable, cabenuva is the only complete, long-acting hiv treatment you can get every other month. it's two injections from a healthcare provider. i really like the flexibility. and for me, it's one less thing to think about while traveling. don't receive cabenuva if you're allergic to its ingredients or if you taking certain medicines, which may interact with cabenuva. serious side effects include allergic reactions post-injection reactions, liver problems, and depression.

if you have a rash and other allergic reaction symptoms, stop cabenuva and get medical help right away. tell your doctor if you have liver problems or mental health concerns, and if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. some of the most common side effects include injection-site reactions, fever, and tiredness. if you switch to cabenuva, attend all treatment appointments. ready to treat your hiv in a different way? ask your doctor about every-other-month cabenuva. with every-other-month cabenuva, i'm good to go.
