russia and china are in favor of the application. with brazil, india, and south africa -- let us say the measure gets a majority and no veto. it would go on to the general assembly where it would need 82 /3 majority. -- where it would need a 2/3 majority. however, the americans have said they would veto, so it is dead on arrival. the security council commission will review the application. that could take weeks or months. we do not know when a vote would be set up. at least that gives the parties involved more time to find a negotiated deal will find -- behind the scenes. >> mass demonstrations across yemen, calling for the president to resign. thousands of women march in sanaa. the opposition wants saleh to step down immediately. he offered to negotiate if the protests stopped. the opposition believes this is another attempt to hold onto power. the case has been closed on the lockerbie bombing. that is the libyan response to the british government. one libyan was convicted of bringing down a pan am airliner in scotland in 1998. inve

abu mazen told him i will submit the application. >> rose: take me through this. you submit the application. when is your expectation that there will be a vote and a.s. veto? >> i don't know. rose: is it weeks? is it months? >> i think it's weeks. >> rose: it's weeks? >> there are legal procedures and due process. we submit application to secretary general, the secretary general hands it to the head of the security council-- which is lebanon, by the way. and then they have to form a committee and in some cases, like in the case of south sudan i think took less than nine hours for the committee to finish. in the case of israel it took nine months. in the case of macedonia (inaudible). so in the applications there's something due process, legal process that weill understand. two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, whatever. but there will be some political maneuvering, someone trying to shelve our application because the pressure being... >> rose: right, right. >> on the member stat is unbelievable. is unbelievable. >> rose: what kind of pressure? >> well we hear that s

i am sure the applicant can speak more accurately to that. i want to speak to the outcome of the allegations. but regard to the first one, the posting of the business. they concurred the posting was done adequately. from abc's did you, that is not off the table. it has to be posted with a sign similar to the planning department sign come in has to be in place for 80 days. they are satisfied that has been at. the next one that is more difficult to nail down is the 500 ft mailer. abc requires for this type of license that people do a 500 ft mailer. the required that they provide abc a list of all the people mailed, and then it is up to the applicant to do the mailer and send it out in signed affidavits that they follow through on that. in this case, there were community people that believe it was not done adequately, and based on their audit, and i am sure they will speak to it today, that it was not done adequately. in my opinion they came up with a reasonable solution, and the remedy where it stands today is abc has said they will accept our

the application and also the way to deal with the application there is a possibility that there isn't a there would be an agreement in the security council today or tomorrow or. the application would be special committee. which usually is a process by the closer. and closer to the application for my legal and technical and procedural. approach and to. their considerations or their results to the security council in a later date this may take days and may take. a few weeks and then we should suppose that the council itself will have to meet and to start the vote on the application so it's one subject that ok that's that's the way it's all going to work but how do you think it's going to go the end of the day. the end of the day we have nine members of the security council that recognize the state of palestine and we realize that the united states doing all they called. using threats and temptations and pressure was in order to influence the decision was of. all members of the security council and that they have had some success with two or three of these. kids going on. on diplomatic w

it limited local discretion jurisdiction over these applications. prior to that time, planning department would occasionally review solar permit applications, and to correct the requestor's argument that all exterior changes require notice, that is clearly not the case. there are numerous exceptions to that requirement. previously, we would not to notice under section 3114 solar panels. even had this state law not been passed, there would have been no planning code section 311 notification because solar panels are exempt from section 311 notice. there was definitely no notification required in this case. >> we have seen solar panel cases before us. how do they get here? >> as an appeal of the electrical permit, typically. >> ok. >> is there any public comment on this item? seeing them, commissioners, matter submitted. >> comments, commissioners?

we were working with them on the application. they were not making good-faith efforts and they decided to go ahead with the board of appeals hearing. we were working on the conditional use authorization. that matter was scheduled for hearing. in a briefing to the board of appeals, they threw away their conditional use application and said that they were pointing at plans that labeled this as a roof deck under previous authorizations. it is true that it is labeled as a roof deck, but it was a roof deck for the residential and other hotel uses. we went to the board of appeals, and they made it clear to the project sponsor that they were not inclined to accept the argument that it was an existing legal use especially since they could not point to a conditional use authorization. it was denied about a decade ago. that is the history on that. the board of appeals continued at the matter to try to motivate the project sponsor to work with the department. we went back for a hearing on february 10 when we reported back that they had made
