[inaudible] district. the 1st is on page 3. church of supervisor came i haven't [inaudible] what i like to do if there's any public comment on this any discussion of a common commitment to the consideration of the arms >> that started all way to make a motion on these technical amendments until after the comment that >> thank you. supervisor you >> thank you. i'm pretty disappointed. this is what the developer asked us to do he can do is to say stop the process and see what we could come up with a compromise that we want to. i thought most of the things that they were working towards were settled. so i'm like everybody else you're probably very disappointed that it didn't work and yet we propose bonus for 2 weeks. my
3:31 pm
question i'm glad supervisor wiener spoke line of questioning is clarified that there's consequences in this. i'm just curious, and i don't know how much we can divulge on this, but what happened but it fell apart? can you clarify? >> i guess rather than mean any specific names, i think that the issue is that the compromise were the new payment plan as a preferred to call it requires from the beginning that all 6 developers were agreeable. otherwise if we don't get promises not to sue from all 6 it's pointless because of one sues it's the same as as if they all sued. so, we weren't able to get that. there were 2 or 3 that were on
3:32 pm
board from the beginning and a couple that we couldn't get in the end. we thought we had assurances. we do have assurances in the beginning but minds change or something changed. so that's pretty much what happened. by late last week and began became clear we were not going to get the agreement from all the. again, avoiding any names, there were several that were on board immediately and were never a problem and there were few hours that we could not get. so that's what happened. >> thank you. i also want to thank the mayor's office for the work to put into this and trying to reach a compromise. >> supervisor wiener >> thank you. i just want to wish that last comment by mister rick is important i want to be very clear on my comments. the big believer [inaudible] were trying to demonize all these developers. i know there were some willing to agree to this and i think [inaudible] legally and everything to do in a good
3:33 pm
civic actors. i'm appreciative developers were willing to enter this very good resolution but fourthly not all of them were. it actually brings up a larger point that i think sometimes when things like this happen are working very hard to try to address the future needs of the city around housing, around all sorts of creating new neighborhoods, all sorts of different positive votes for the student develop it is not easy in this town. we know it takes a long time there's a lot of opinion. we have a lot of sites. it's very difficult process. we try to really make the case to residents in the city that good smart well-planned fivefold element is a positive thing. the city and that is sometimes very hard argument to make for people that a lot of our residents, they get that. even though they may not always -- except that when you have a situation like this, with the public sees that you have again not always
3:34 pm
developers are not backing out of a clear commitment that were going to do an absorbing that she's free helping to fund these transit infrastructures. when the public sees developers reneging from that commitment, that gives a black eye to all developments. it makes it harder for other developers who are trying to do the right thing by doing really good development and participating in the needs of the community. so i think it's unfortunate that this is happened but again it's the reality of where we are and we will just wither. thanks >> thank you colleagues any further discussion? me after visiting members of the public was to speak on this public hearing? >> that tax hit the road jack and all that tax. if the road jack [inaudible] tax and tax
3:35 pm
hit the road jack [inaudible] that's what you say good luck with this item today. >> any of the members of the public was to speak on this topic please. >> tom gilbert p [sp?]. what did we have here? i think everybody knew that it was 8 a transport center. diehl and it was very nice and generous and now there's somebody that wants to put a lawsuit together to stop it. kind of like a almost a hostage situation. so, what
3:36 pm
they are after is the city and the people san francisco losing a little bit of money. or a lot of bit of money. the developer plans to keep a little bit more money. so i'm thinking why don't we put a little bit of our lawsuit together and lean, put a lien on all their properties and all of the officers, chairman of the board of directors, and put a lien on the personal properties that they own and just leave it like that for a while and see -- because they're going to make money from our losing money. it's kind of an interesting idea. thank you >> any of the members of the public was to speak on this topic? okay see that at this time his hearing has been heard
3:37 pm
and is now filed. colleagues items 22-24 enhancer board. supervisor can >> thank you. i will be the technical amendment rainout make a motion to adopt them. again, they're merely technical in nature. the one is on the 1st item the resolution to form this community facilities district on page 3. lines 7-9 really just reflect that we had a continuance of this public hearing and whereas the board of supervisors opened a public hearing on september 2, 2014 and continued set public hearings to contact the night and whereas the board of supervisors continued a public hearing on september 9, 2014 and further continued the public hearing to september 23 4014 2014 and am finally on page 6 further resolved board of supervisors hereby acknowledges receipt and accept the terms of a statement from

3:54 pm

3:55 pm
of the cabal my name is chris cabal [inaudible] 40 meters from single i race to continue my comments on government in the 21st century. in previous comment i described the purpose of government as maximizing the capacity of its constituents to adapt a circumstance. how does one adapt to circumstance, you need accurate perception of the symptoms as and the skills to design adaptive resources and [inaudible] solutions. as a matter government accurate perception of person by official standards and measures design skills are encouraged to education and resources distributed to a smooth venue of exchange. in markets. today's new tools of social intermediation serving each of those things perception of new circumstances, new events and [inaudible] exchange is
3:56 pm
efficient and prompt. how so, perception that his twitter and google and read it. u2 covers the tools and techniques in ebay does the exchange. perception is where you can start influencing governance on the 21st century. you know you can know where every speeding automobile is right now. you can know where every gram of methamphetamine is right now. and you can know where every dribbling fountain is right now. you must at least and your ignorance because in the face of youtube and mit online, ignorance is not only obsolete. ignorance is stupid. thank you mister president. >> next speaker >> hello supervisors. my name is richard [inaudible] have lived in the city since 1969. i'm very proud of what the city
3:57 pm
has done. in the past more than in the recent. i fear that san francisco is going to make a big mistake here pretty soon. because the public is entitled to know why candlestick park is going to be destroyed, and many people do not even know it. it's a shocking waste. this is the way our society waste fossil fuel energy. by destroying his. just like candlestick rather than creating green jobs to make them better and make them live longer. there's no reason why candlestick can't be a soccer stadium for 100 years. it's not a big deal for a developer to rearrange the pieces on his [inaudible] to relocate things in a way that is graceful and well done that's practical, and there is no excuse for developer to be allowed to create a phony alternative. one that absolutely lies about the
3:58 pm
potential of this game and that's what we've been sold. here i have to mention that i present 80 people that are behind me at this point. we've got a petition online because we know that is not correct what's going on is based on improper state and federal law. if you have any questions go to my moveon.org [inaudible] candlestick were torn. i think it's a wonderful opportunity for san francisco. just as mister oid of developments. the government as we have seen it as based on an impractical and stupid model of ms consumption. we've got to stop that. if san francisco is progressive and will stand up and say, look developers we know who have all these plans look at the bases of the. the law is improper. i want you to know that this is just a shame. >> next speaker.
3:59 pm
>> hello good afternoon. my name is bradley william clouse. i may service veteran social ingénue or an football player. i am here to request a motion to stop the distraction of the development of candlestick park and to seek new alternatives to sustain and develop candlestick park stadium up to and including 2 seek an active participatory involvement to obtain a major league soccer franchise. i further request the board of supervisors to seek a new historical assessment. one that which does recognize the now deceased architect john savage polls as the master architect architecture that he is. that candlestick park is for many great and greatly overlooked facts a national landmark. [inaudible] says the positive sustainable alternatives to [inaudible] meld the developers proposed rents with current
4:00 pm
interest. furthermore, i've been talking and working with other communities here involved in the bay area. we have the oldest football association still within our city limits. the san francisco soccer football league. this fall season we are recognizing the one or 14 year of our existence. that is both longer and more serving than fisa, us soccer association, and any other soccer involvement throughout america. it is why today we seek a positive resolution moving forward that seeks can see candlestick park sustained for the future for our community family and for everybody else involved. thank you very much. >> hi. you ever consider this meeting is measured by his birth that jesus is the only one in all of history said when he was going to come up
