phase two, today's topic on, includes changes to auto uses, limited corner commercial uses, or lccu's, accessory uses, nonconforming uses, the washington, broadway and waterfront s.u.d.'s and the van ness s.u.d. phase three, which includes the remainder of the legislation, will be considered on may 3. it was originally going to be considered on april 19. however, that will be continued next week. for my presentation on phase two, i'll cover each of the topics and provide a brief discussion on what is being proposed and where appropriate, staff's recommendation. the first topic in your executive summary is automotive uses. the first item under the category would prohibit surface parking lots in the c2, cm, c-3 and mcs districts. the department is recommending this provision be modified so surface parking is allowed as conditional use in existing districts, allowing conditional parking lots to continue to operate but require new surface parking lots to be reviewed by the commission on a case-by-case basis and we came to this recommendation based on the port's input. item two would require conditional u

i did not like to see items coming before us or us acting on it without a budget analyst report. i would prefer for us to send it out without recommendation. we should be getting a budget analyst report to the entire board today or tomorrow, so that will give us time to review it in advance of our tuesday broke -- tuesday vote. we do have an amendment as a whole we have to take ahead of time. we will do that without objection. in terms of the amended version, we will send that forward to the full board without recommendation -- or do that without objection. thank you. do we have any other items before us? >> that completes the agenda. supervisor chu: thank you. we are adjourned. supervisor chu: the, welcome to the regular meeting of the full budget and finance committee. i am joined by supervisor avalos, supervisor kim, supervisor cohen:n, and supervisor wiener will be joining us later. >> completed speaker cards as part of the file should be submitted to the clerk. items like a dog to they will appear on the april 3 board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise stated. supervisor chu: can you call ite

[ music continues ] man: i think people tend to call us performance because performance is the term that encompasses everything that can't be defined as theater or dance or sculpture. anything that people have a question about, they say, "that must be performance." and so that's what we are. we don't think a lot about what we are. we just do it. i have to be extremely involved. otherwise, i can't do it. it's like i have to be inside the movement. we're a group that works collaboratively. that, even though we do have a director, we all have input, and we're all making the work as it goes along. we all have a hand in the process and in shaping a piece, so that's really important to me.

again and again, we have asked for the board of supervisors or another entity within the city to help us with tools, with legislation to use clustering or oversaturation or another indicator as a reason to make decisions. without that tool, it is very hard to use it. when i compare this to the mission situation, i do feel like there is a two on one block, but the third was 1 mile away. i see that there are four located around. common sense wise, there is some sense of oversaturation. as far as findings, i do not think that i could support denying the project sponsor. >> commissioners, the motion on the floor is to not take discretionary review and approve the project as prose. with the caveat that there are safety programs -- their safety program is to do it -- to go through the approval process of the centers as a police department. on that motion -- commissioner antonini: no. commissioner borden: no. commissioner miguel: aye. commissioner moore: aye. commissioner sugaya: aye. vice president wu: aye. >> this motion 4 this-2, with commissioner antonini and commissioner borden voting against. it has been approved. commissio

repeatedly buy taking positions forces us to confront the cases in which it's not that easy in which our precommitments to a set of principles force us or require us to take positions to support people we couldn't possibly dislike more or challenge us to really test what it was we thought we believed in in the first place. that's and you believely uncomfortable position to put people in, right? but to draw something from our ancient constitutionalism panel, yesterday, there was a concept in roman society of citizenship requiring people to take a position. right? it is not good citizenship to just stand back as society confronts major questions and confronts crises and its dilemmas. citizenship demands engagement at this level. and i think that's part of what makes the aclu great. it's also part of what makes it so challenging to many of us. >> heather macdonald is a fellow at the manhattan institute here in new york and -- >> that's correct. >> i got that part right? >> easy. >> i also see that you went to the law school at that other school on the california coast. >> the former one. >> right. >> on the peninsula, stanford. >> what is your take o

another one that might be useful is using large or mixed use properties to be able to, as a product of that, put more money in towards affordable housing. again, it is not the production, which is really what we're talking about. one difficulty we have -- we are a city and county. we're also a very build-out environment. to compare this to other counties with in the bay area, we're at a disadvantage because we only have so much land. many of these counties, although they may be reticent to do so, have land available to build new housing and we have to sort of build vertically in most instances. i think all these reports are county reports, not city reports. >> no, they are all the jurisdictions, so cities and counties. commissioner antonini: so you can get us both. that will be interesting to see. in terms of counties, we are in a little bit of a different situation. also, it is always good to know that, of course, even as we exceed the guidelines for market rate housing, we have to remember that this housing also contributes to funds towards the building of housing at different income

weapons they have not smuggled weapons or use terrorism or kidnapping or use extreme forms of violence they have not asked for the removal of the king and their initial protests they only wanted to have a democratic reforms where one human being one person in a country could have one fault and ok so it happens that the majority of the families are shiites however you can see from the pictures most of the people are only carrying the framing flag they are not carrying any slogans that are religious or that belong to a certain party or group this train is they want to belong to a democratic country where everyone is equal where no group takes takes precedence over other groups these are these are the basic basic common principles of the universal declaration of human rights where people are equal before the law in but when there is a situation that's different i think there is an elite group or it happens that this group is from a sunni faction is superior it's taking over all the older positions in the government and it's taking over the main resources of the c

that asks people to donate used or lightly used running shoes. >> i want to bring these stories about someone who is afraid to talk about their story or what they've been through in life. i want to be that life. >> the shoes will be given to those in need for exchange of their story. >> you lost your home, you can't afford a pair of running shoes, i can give them to you. i provide you with a pair of shoes, and i believe shoes are a steppingstone in our life. every step you take gets us to a new place. >> reporter: at the age of 37, he is now older than his father was when he was killed. he hopes his foundation will eventually inspire his own son 18-month-old gabriel to use his voice and inspire others to use theirs. >> losing my father at the age of 11. it was one of the toughest things in my life. and now that i have my son, i can live the life that i could not live with my father. and what i hope him to gain from my experience is that no matter who you are, we all have a story to share. >> kimberly terry, "today in the bay." >> always such a reminder too. one person, one guy can mak

. >> unfortunately for both of us or all of us, i am trying out some new hearing aids, and they are not as advertised, let's say. i think the first coin from my point of view is hardly radical change and that was made from the june of 2010 policy decisions to the draft that was presented to the taskforce the june 14, 2010 minutes, i think adequately describe the long discussion haunt the policy issues that were faced by the commission at that time. and the level of input that was given by members of the public and have the task force members, ahead and the work that went in the including my own meetings with susan. so the change of course which was a dramatic and shocking, without having the same policy body that made those decisions here in a public meeting, these are what the policy decisions are being reversed by staff. i think it is the hot problems. those of us that have a chance for the last few years. reach a the ethics commission. as mentioned, the staff is not authorized an empowered to enforce those decisions. only the ethics commission can do that. it is the policy body that

but, you know, it is so encouraging to us when people will call in or write us a note, give us a suggestion, correct us, because, you know, what we think that we are doing is that you know the excitement of the classroom and how seldom you see it in the outside world. those of you who are republican historians know the excitement of talking to someone at a museum and seeing it connect with them. and so what we think that we are doing is trying to share with the world that history is exciting in all its dimensions, and that i thought that was a great introduction to say that we are trying to speak in sort of an intimate voice. the lesson we have to give each other is that we are talking across the table, even if i'm 100 miles away, the idea is that we know, if you're in this room, you have seen the difference that history can make in somebody's life. you have seen when it clicks to a kid. you have seen when somebody who is labored under a misconception, they are 80 years old and go, i never knew that. now that makes sense. we think ironically radio might be the oldest mass media, might be a
