i get a little city to earth from. she 1st leads me to the square in front of freiburg historic town hall here as everywhere across the city you can find the narrow brook . before you have noticed this little tripping hazard in the city. what's it all about dance reached it was. really important the main reason these got his were built back in the 12th century was to have water in the city to put out fires to other cities have them to its capital that's about the cities had them but most places have filled them in because of course there hasn't. i walked but probably wanted to preserve it's baseless system and i really fought for that and the $970.00 s. . yeah you do this this lovely building from the 16th century it's called the whale house it became so famous because eros most of rotterdam lived here for 2 years but the rest miss the great philosopher and freethinkers constantly complained about it but that house i follow you said it was so full of vermin it was unbearable and with the bells of st martin's church cha

and the village lake in the middle of the city. and here comes my lift it runs on solar power once an hour this boat crossed the lake to take passengers to places like the zoo i'm going on around trip. unless you're a captain but not a typical captain skipper a solar powered boat is that something you're proud of. and josh mongst when i say i'm proud. mars are among the 1st solar boats in operation. to keep guns and up there you can see the number the shipyard gave us bono my hero one. when what happens if the sun fails to shine for a longer period does the boat still operate. yeah as he does when we have are chargeable batteries down the hall. and we have enough power to travel for 3 days with so far that he move may i take a turn at the wheel. so here on the lake sure. i won't have an accident and i'll be right here but. not much can go wrong at this speed. he's about sebastian you want to take over and if you want to i don't know. surrounding the lake is in 1000 hectare park new stays green in more ways than one . wolf they are

there's a city program and a state program, and the city program focuses on deep vulnerability. the state program focusing on retroactive rent, so we're going to make sure we communicate so people know the correct program to apply to. >> chair haney: got it. is the type of landlord or housing situation a factor at all in this or are we really just looking at the tenant and who they are and what the needs are? >> so it is deeply tenant. we just want to make sure in the end that the tenant needs the support and they are -- and are aligned with our vulnerable indices, that the resources go to them. so the -- so yes. so in that instance, the landlord is not part of the consideration of the resource being given. it is to -- for the tenant. >> chair haney: got it. and last thing that i wanted to say about this is to have an understanding of the data tracking in the administration of these programs. you know, it's really important that we not only have information on the tenants, age, size of household, income report received, it would be important to see the data demographics on tenan

, as if it belongs in a city and enriches a city. because a ballpark, among other things, is an important part of public space. that's part of the thesis of the book is tors along with parks that we were beginning to develop in the mid-19th century and even cemetaries, the ballpark was one of the ways in which working class immigrants or just working class people in general could experience some bit of the countryside. if you worked in a factory, you probably worked six days a week, had nothing but sundays off. you had no way to go to the country, you had no way -- you know, and going to the ballpark was one of the experiences you could have. that's another reason the national leagues ban on sunday games had a whole other agenda. it was about keeping immigrants out in part because it was the only day they could go, for many of them. but there's also, of course, the field itself and the seating and how close you felt to the action, how well you saw it, and the way in which the whole thing worked together as a kind of communal space. >

the city was it downtrodden city and he was a champion of the city.e would go on the don imus show and sing the praises of the city and people loved him for that. they figured we always had corruption, and it predates buddy and it will postdate him, but at least he made us feel good about ourselves. at least, he helped put providence back on the map. >> well voters elect them to office, some of history's biggest names had to go through powerful and colorful party bosses to get on the ballot. tom pendergast was the boss of kansas city's democratic political machine in the 1920's and 1930's. his influence helped launch the political career of president harry truman. >> tom pendergast was the political machine boss of kansas city from 1925 to 1939 in control. the political machine got its start from tom's older mother, jim pendergast -- older brother, jim pendergast two came to kansas city in the 1880's and got started, establishing this machine in the first word of kansas city, in the industrial left bottoms by the river. there were many, and irish comm

this city can do better. there is a huge amount of federal and state funding coming to san francisco, not to mention prop "c" funds. the city needs to invest time and money into actual housing and not waste it on warehousing human beings in asphalt parking lots. those of you who say safe sleeping sites is a humane alternative to sleeping on the streets, have you been to them? it is the street. they're asphalt parking lots. this city can do better. i urge you, san francisco, to be bold, compassionate and innovative. this piece of legislation is an inhumane copout. do better. i know you can. thank you. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> caller: hi, my name is matt rezina, resident of district eight, about a block away from the safe sleeping site. i see this as an extension of the navigation centers which have been successful, but we need more of them more quickly. this is a really fast way to do that. there has been a lot of talk about the costs. i'm glad we're paying attention two

this model city is overseen and run by a giant computer system it's the brains of the city all public buildings and homes are equipped with digital sensors and controls that can be operated remotely and are monitored centrally. sensors relay rooms temperature and energy it's all being tracked and can be adjusted individual that residents can monitor and reduce their consumption municipal staff can optimize the use of resources. they see power consumption at every note and can match production to demand. the garbage disposal system is also extremely clever trash from apartment buildings and offices travels via chutes and pipes straight to processing plants. the system regulates who may discard what kind of garbage at what time. this market city only functions thanks to the digital network and because it's monitoring isn't there also a risk of unwanted surveillance. of personal data could prove to be the most valuable product generated in a smart city because they are the basis for targeted information or advertising. in kyoto japan u.s. technology group cisco is working on smart city s

to our cities are failing us. such affects us all to piece this all future generations can look forward to i like to have a city where i don't need to worry about the machines and my head what can we do to improve the way we move in our cities but it's very smart join us on a journey where architects engineers and activists face up to the challenges of our future urban mobility. traffic chaos. on the top. worldwide every day. there are some 47000000 cars on germany's roads enough for 2 of the 3 adults to be driving at the same time. that's the highest level ever in berlin alone 87000 new cars were registered in 2019 despite growing traffic problems. like lots of public transport with ok bicycle. and we see all those cars next to the universe the building where people like the students have free public transport and they still come by car and i think that's not. all over the world. traffic pollution is choking us of the air we need to breathe. people around the world are demanding change. after more than 100 years

time away, improper usage of city resources, like city e-mail or city vehicles. the third type of matter that we typically investigate are those involving deficiencies and the quality and delivery of government services, an example of which are the non-performance of contractually services. and then the last is those related to inefficient and government practices. some examples are allegations of purchasing unnecessary supplies or equipment for city functions. on the slide five, it's really just highlighting that although the whistle-blower program is a primary entity that intakes and investigates administrative complaints, there are those we receive that we have to refer to other departments in the city, given that it is within their own jurisdiction and outside of the adjudication of our whistle-blower program. some of those says examples are reports in which another city department >> established by bargaining unit or contract. so per the charter, if a reporter has remedies available to them that are addressed in any union contract or bargaining agreement, th

across the city. the controller's office allocated a total of 5.6 million. upon completing the survey and application process, the city distributed $2.76 million for direct wage increases and $3.8 million to address compaction across 515 contracts and 116 -- 169 contractors. ultimately the city focused its funds for workers on city contracts and did not use any of the funding to address wage equity concerns as funds were limited and the qualitative and quantitative items in this funding were hard to validate. a breakdown of the distribution of these funds by department is shown in exhibit 2 on page 9 of our report. the controller's office reported that there were data validation issues as part of their survey and allocation process, which is discussed on page 9 of our report. while this process ran into many challenges from sur vying nonprofits to validating and correcting data, it surveyed m.c.o. issues across the city and worked to address wage compaction concerns. however, this was a one-time proce

professionals and their families back into the campus cities.so five or ten years later the notion of the institution comes on board so you have federal agencies like cisneros the director of head at the time in the nineties, he sponsored aker societies grandson money given to universities because the argument is if you want to bring back people to the city what will be the come back? it will be revitalizing in the idea was university. so universities latched onto the idea to be the anchor answer to. we are not going anywhere. so people like henry saylor junior and others were old-school justice oriented civic engagement figures originally. actually he was a student at the moment when they were demolishing black neighborhoods in west philadelphia the - - philadelphia taking way for the science center he was an activist to stop that he stayed at you pan and became a professional and then he began to cultivate the idea in latin self-interest that it was a crisis surrounding you pan and chicago and usc and south central l.a. the only way we are goi

and tourists like me can't even rent a bike to explore the city's. rooms though was founded 1200 years ago this is where great european history once took place but environmental protection also has a great reputation and is considered a green city sounds like an exciting day to me. we'll also spend time in the surrounding area known as we'll see lots of lovely castles and visit a diving park where you can explore and on the water were. also see the spectacular scenery of newfoundland sent in by a viewer. i thought the best place to start my tour was the problem enough it's sort of the. just bicycle highway and circles the outskirts of the old town. moonstone may be old but its population is young off the city's 300000 inhabitants 60000 our students nearly everyone here writes of cycling paths crisscrossed the city and the direction of signage is excellent. the principal i mocked in the heart of the old town is considered one of the most beautiful squares in germany the gabled houses date back to the days of the hands at a clique. a splendid example o

we leverage the city's collective power for achieving higher count to protect the city. second, it would increase the efficiency, instead of letting every department go through 10 to 20 administrative or legal staff for similar purchases. now departments collaborate as one city, completing all of the necessary legal procurements and eliminate the doubling effort. last, but not least, it would improve visibility and expand performance. all oricle products would be purchased through one master agreement so we can better monitor and manage the specs, to reduce the costs and then the performance. in addition, by entering this agreement, oracle helps the city reduce the cost for maintaining the existing oracle hardware. they have waived it for (indiscernable) for five years. without including any oracle termination fees. we will save the city at least $3.75 million in the next five years, either in savings or in cost avoidance. this goes to the question (indiscernable).

let me clearly state to you that our city this city and county of san francisco is a racist city. one way to look at it is to check on our police department for all the decades. our district attorneys, city attorneys, chief of police, many of whom i know, supervisors, many who are not educated on issues. they don't know what is happening at ground zero. do you think that san francisco should have had a gang task force that created the information about some gangs and we don't have gangs in san francisco? there are sets that moved away from san francisco and are creating a lot of pandemonium now. this happened because of rogue police officers. i served in the department of defense, department of interior and united states so i know what i am talking about. it is time for our board of supervisors and addvo cats to work with the federal government, to work with this u.s. attorney general to bring up reform. >> that you for sharing your comments. i believe we have one more caller in the queue. please connect us. >> i am a worker. last year i was -- i am in support of sb299 or this bil

new york city is the i single most densely city. we are not far behind that. new york is requiring the same thing. it makes sense for the type of city we have and the populations we have in our neighborhoods. appreciate people's doing that and we know there's concerns. it's required for travel. there's a lot of reasons why you would show testing over the vaccine. that's going to be a reality for our lives when we're doing larger events or coming together with a lot of others outside of our household. >> i want to get to the travel in a second. first, will giants fans use city testing resources, for example, i know the city pays $75 per test to get tested for example. where are fans supposed to go? should they use city resources? >> we know giants fans travel in from multiple areas. we want people to use the testing resource that's available to them and convenient for them where they live. some people we know will use resources in san francisco and that is what they're here for. we want people to use resources available to them and that includes resources we ha

i think a city that considers ourselves the kind of city that welcomes folks are discriminating against folks. black people, my folks, we need to be treated right for once in our lives by the city and by the government because we have been handled miserably by the city in all of our history. i just want to encourage you to do something better, please, than what you're doing. you don't need to be doing anything other than only helping the developers. >> clerk: thank you, sir. that's your time. >> hi, members of the planning commission. my name is bob [inaudible] and i'm a member of grow the richmond, member of advocating group in the richmond, supporting more homes in the richmond and more transit. i'm here to tell you that much like what another caller said earlier, if we believe that we are going to undo the racist housing policies that this city has adopted for years and decades and decades, it means that we need to make it easy to build multifamily housing on the west side of san francisco, and that means, much like that other caller said, why just 50%? why not 60 or 75%? why are we

and for the city. the conditions of the complex have successfully declined over the years and some of the conditions before they've reported sewage that tenants face. even as conditions at plaza east have deteriorate and despite the pleas of residents, city government and the property manager have failed to step up and intervene on behalf of the residents. from the moment we took office, we've been working to change this and listen to go the tenants for a change and taking their complaints seriously. it's my understanding that san francisco housing authority has been aware of the need for plaza east for years and in november, of 2020, the agency took the first step in the demolition in the process signing up on the plan to tear down and rebuild the site. among other concerns. the application to hud does not discuss how the developer or the city can address conditions at the complex in the immediate future. the housing authority has since sent a demolition application to the u.s. department of housing a

your city? >> thank you to my brother mayor and of course my sister mayor. it's always good to see you, london, and we've been communicating quite often as we move through this pandemic. and, you know, we've been going back and forth our cities as it relates to getting our people vaccinated. and so every day, we're like neck and neck. so i just appreciate the work and that of the conference. so, oh, man, this package is vitally important to the city of new orleans and the city, you know, we were disproportionately impacted by this virus as you heard from london as well. we lost over 172000 residents. and coming and dealing with the state of louisiana, the city of new orleans had over $200 million in expenses incurred fighting back this pandemic. with all of that being approved by the state of louisiana only for the city to get $50 million. so fighting for direct allocation was something that was so important for this city so that we can really not only deal with the deficits that have incurred,

incorporations and the city. for over 58 years, the scope and responsibility for lafco has grown consider bey to include the original mission of promoting orderly growth we now preserve agriculture and open space and ensure efficient, sustainable public services as the authority of lafco and the responsibility has grown over the years so have the statutes of lafco. the local reorganization act. it's the c.k.h. is the body of government code that governs lafco so we call it the lafco's bible. they adopt local policy and commissions make the final decision. just as your commission has done by statue they appointed an executive officer, a clerk and legal contract. each lafco has authority within its home county and no authority outside its home county. they're independent of all other lafcos and independent of all other lafcos. just as c-sack has no authority over its county members or the league. we serve as a resource and a support to our members like all other local governments, lafcos are subject to legal frame

let me clearly state to you that our city this city and county of san francisco is a racist city. one way to look at it is to check on our police department for all the decades. our district attorneys, city attorneys, chief of police, many of whom i know, supervisors, many who are not educated on issues. they don't know what is happening at ground zero. do you think that san francisco should have had a gang task force that created the information about some gangs and we don't have gangs in san francisco? there are sets that moved away from san francisco and are creating a lot of pandemonium now. this happened because of rogue police officers. i served in the department of defense, department of interior and united states so i know what i am talking about. it is time for our board of supervisors and addvo cats to work with the federal government, to work with this u.s. attorney general to bring up reform. >> that you for sharing your comments. i believe we have one more caller in the queue. please connect us. >> i am a worker. last year i was -- i am in support of sb299 or this bil

mac city officials?vely note from the guy who runs the county sign shop, who, i read a history article, he kind of was on the history part of it, but that is, you know, i think people who are familiar enough with the city history, it's resonated with them as a thing they've kind of been aware of and backgrounds, and to have it, to have the history brought forward, i love sharing history. >> all right, it is new and it's a classic at once. ben's auto, thank you so much for sharing fog city font. perhaps when it's time for new city street signs, someone from the department out to you. we will see. we will see, you'll keep us posted, right? >> it yep. all right. marilyn, you're looking forward to the oscars, me too. >>> the oscars are this sunday here on abc7, we know just who to turn to when it comes to breaking it all down. bay area film critic for killer movie reviews.com and behind the scenes on public radio exchange, andrea chase joins us now. really great to see you again. boy, it has been too long. >

city and state did this. city and state has not helped and supported us. i have seen and counted the grant amounts that the sfowd is claiming for the past several months. it is well under what they claim. i have been waiting for the loan amount still waiting after a month and still haven't veep be the numbers. the claims of financial assistance are grossly inflated and false. as of september 2020 half of the small businesses in san francisco closed permanently. if we do not receive rental assistance there will be hundreds of hows more businesses closing if we don't get help. maybe legislation assisted. focus should be hiring creating jobs not paying represent when we were forced to close. without any public data justifying closures we need legal protection. i know dean preston mentioned it is tricky and challenging. we know that and understand and respect that. it doesn't mean this shouldn't be the number one focus of the city right now. all of these people, small businesses we use this word it is families, employees and employees families. please, please

'said it before and i'll say it again. if i thought a reverse mortgage was just some kind of trick to take your home, i wouldn't even be here. it's just a loan, like any other, with one big difference- and that difference is how you choose to pay it

police in the city of brooklyn center. that's just outside minneapolis say. >> they were trying to arrest 20 year old dante wright yesterday related to an outstanding warrant. you can hear the officer in the video whose body camera footage we're looking at right now. she shouts taser several times before eventually shooting her gun at the end of the video you hear her say i shot him. drove off after being shot once his car crashed a few blocks away. he was pronounced dead at the scene. >> as i watched the video and listen to the officer's commands is my belief that the officer had the intention to deploy their taser. but instead shot mister right with a single bullet. this appears to me from what i view in the officer's reaction in distress immediately after. but this was an accidental discharge. that resulted in the tragic death. mister right. >> and the female officer sound stunned when she says i shot him that officer has been placed on administrative leave court records show right was being sought after he failed to ap

so the typical payroll costs that the city would recover, that the city is recovering and using coronavirus relief funds for. so do we have to take those -- if we're going to apply to use these funds for our personnel costs, do we have to take out and have pension contribution amounts which are substantial? and then there are many, many streams of funding for grant programs that will not flow through the city and they'll flow through state agencies or through other federal agencies like the c.d.c. and n.i.h. and other federal organizations. and we don't yet know kind of the funds from those and how they'll be distributed. so many open questions. we are working with our lobbyists and our office is working with the mayor's office and the departments to comb through the legislation and to understand what it means for us and to put a number on that. and some of this is easier to identify some portions than others. so for erpa, it's $30 million approximately to the m.t.a. and $192 million to the airport and those entities also received in cares and the budget reconciliation act. so it's kind of
