i think one of the most important categories here essentially is we had a very all verbal category, a physical material that if an event of the earthquake and any other disaster that looms, which i do not know how to define, but the category of it is only one place and lost, we would have archived materials that are basically going to be gone. i think it is imperative that we push this to the forefront, along with some of the parallel technology categories that we are pursuing from the pds and all the other categories that will literally put against san francisco the category of better service to the public. i urge the director and those that are involved in the categories of one of the technical projects to really push the pedal to the metal and heavily. think you. -- thank you. >> item #7, directors report. se7a, dbi finances. >> pamela. we have to items -- two items under number seven. the first is the monthly financial report, and then there will be a short discussion about the budget instructions for the 2012-13 budget. in first i wanted to mention, in terms of revenue, we have s

other categories are mainly different categories. the authority can elect to defer authority infrastructure work. they can be -- they can elect to do that for up to 10 years. that is, i believe, a new addition since the staff report, and we will correct it. they can also differ -- elect to defer additional work. they can opt for up to 10 years to defer major improvement. and then they can opt to do other work. essentially, just to be clear, all these other categories, authority infrastructure work, or the deferred flavors are work that are eligible for rent credits or reimbursement. we will look at the cordele for performing $55 million, and brad will talk about the scopes of work and their cost estimates later. for that cordele, there will be two primary things that happen, long-term rights that will cruise the development authority. they will have up to 10 years to do the analysis and perform seismic upgrades as part of deferred additional worked additionalwork. -- deferred additional work. as part of the process, getting this done

you will see the category of 4000 per month. it is something you cannot sit nine or diminish. -- cannot deny or diminish. >> we have 6000 members in san francisco and 30,000 in the bay area. i represent those members on the environmental council. we have been working for the last 10 months. we share some of the concerns about the pollution to the aquatic park area, also concerns about the golden gate park conservancy, the concerns of the national park service. it is important for our park lands to be protected. we have supported the america's cup since the beginning, and we continue to do so. we wanted to be as clean and sustainable as possible and for the city to be able to enjoy the your own while it is going on. -- to enjoy their own city while it is going on. thank you very much. >> i represent the south beach yacht club. we support the certification of the environmental impact report and an immediate vote this weekend. we have concerns about traffic, increased cost, difficulty parking, and those sorts of things. we believe

so actors nominated in this category. still talking about comedy or musical category? believe it or not. some relatively serious people in here. the musical and comedy category, it's kind of a weird one. they divide it up from the foreign press the way we see it. different than we get in the oskars. you've got dujardin there, brendan gleason, joseph gordon-levitt, ryan gosling. i think the award is probably going to jean dujardin. >> so it's considered more of a musical than comedy sh. >> i think it's more of a comedy. i think they consider it a musical, kind of a comedy. it's got a lot of dance numbers. they play a lot more laughs. although it does have a serious story going on, it's kind of that old-school silent film where it never gets too heavy. it's still played pretty light. i think that's why it ended up in that category. >> and those facial expressions more important than anything because it is a silent movie. so if you pull that off, it takes you to a whole new level of respect. >>> coming up, what does a math lesson have to do with slavery? a homework assign

so now actors nominated in this category. the comedy or musical category? believe it or not. believe it or not. some relatively serious people in here. you know the musical and comedy category, it's kind of a weird one. they divide it up from the foreign press the way we see it different than we get in the oscars, but you've got heroic i mentioned paul dujardin playing the lead in the artist, brendan gleeson, joseph gordon-levitt, ryan gosling and owen wilson. i think it's going to jean dujardin. >> more musical than comedy? >> i think so. i think they kind of considered it kind of a musical, kind of a comedy. it's got a lot of dance numbers, they play a lot for laughs, and it does have a serious story going on. it's kind of that old school silent film where it never gets too heavy. it's still played pretty light. so i think that's kind of why it ended up in that category. >> yeah, and those facial expressions. you know, more important than anything because it is a silent movie. i guess if you pull that out, that takes you to a whole other level of respect.

the america's cup, the impact of the services the department will provide for it, and or similar categories? >> no, we are ready to provide the report when needed for america's cup. it will mostly be in plan check for the projects. we have planned check of the terminal, and they will be coming in as soon as the court gives them to us. we are ready for them. -- as soon as the port gives them to us. in >>> the future grand central station of the west coast is going well? speaker yes, it is. -- >> yes, it is. >> i would also like to extend their appreciation for the tour of the site preparation and work and that was happening with the joint collaboration of construction management companies that are involved, and quite impressive from the standpoint of technical capabilities that are being performed and conducted. quite impressive. >> item 7e, update on q-matic. >> pamela levin, department of building inspection. on the friday before we were going to implement, we were notified by the unions that they wanted an opportunity to sit down with us and to essentially a meet and confer on the impact

you do have different types of categories.tions, they do not have the same problems. right now, it states that it shall be four feet from the property line.

this will be limited to people in the work force income category. employees cannot buy homes that and subject to an alice act in the last 10 years, -- subject to an ellis act in the last 10 years. there is also a share in appreciation, based on the split formula used by the mayor's office on housing and the current downpayment assistance loan program. these recaptured funds will then be diverted back to the mayor's office affordable housing funds and will help complete destruction of the 190 units i mentioned previously. finally, while cpmc will make payments, they will be subject to a payment escalation factor. thank you. >> so we are in the home stretch now. we are almost done. president chiu: supervisor wiener, i know you have a question for him. >> in terms of the breakdown in terms of the housing fund, the work force housing, what does that mean as you define it? >> the income category that we would be referring to is a moderate income housing, which is roughly 80 to 120%, and just to be very clear about that, that is a category broadly. becaus

this is a tough category. george clooney, they love him.ther movies like ""moneyball"," "war horse," "hugo" and "ides of march," another clooney film, i don't think they're going to take the award. >> let's talk about hch hugo," it's gotten quite a bit of buzz. what did you like about it? >> absolutely. it's an amazing movie in the respect that finally someone who is an incredible legendary filmmaker like martin scorsese has figured out how to use 3d. when you combine that that he's getting to express through this story his love of film, the second half of the movie i thought was spectacular. the first, maybe not so much. a little long for a children's movie. generally the reception to the movie was kind of luke warm. that's why i think this one doesn't necessarily have as good a shot. >> it's very mysterious as well. about an orphan living in the walls of a train station. maybe it's tough for i don't think people to grasp, maybe a little too grown up. >> a little bit. visually stunning. >> it was nominated. so something is right here. a lo

as of now it only aplays to two categories.one, terrorism, and two, controlled substance terrificers. so to expand that category is a real alienation, and i do intend the play on words. and then the very real threat of the foreclosure of appeal. what i mean when i say that, right now, especially in the ninth circuit, we have a favorable circuit court of appeals. and what congress has chosen to do in 2007 and 2008 is propose a structure by which the ninth would be split into the ninth and a new circuit court of appeals. >> i have to ask you to finish. thank you. you can finish your statement if you can and then your time is up. >> very good. the last issue you may wish to consider is appeals would otherwise be considered under another proposal, all to go to the d.c. circuit court of appeals, which has no specialization in immigration. thank you for your time. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please? >> geeping, commissioners. my name is bar tholmue murphy. i am the chairman for the year national immigration reform.

let me quickly summarize the five categories including some of the indicators of the categories as well as why they are important. the first category of indicators include the quantity, number of quantities and number of sites with weapons usable nuclear materials including the quantity themselves. number of sites and whether or not the quantities increase or decrease in a particular country. this is important because it affects the overall potential in a particular country. the second category are the security and control measures. this includes specific physical protection measures, accounting practices and whether or not security personnel are screened. these actions directly affect security of materials of a given subject. the third category is what we called global norms and includes the relevant international legal agreements, voluntary commitments and the level of transparency shown by a country on material quantity and material security practices. all of these measures affect the international confidence in the way that a country takes security obligations. the fourth category i

the academy says the category could have held anywhere from five to ten nominees.lack and white film "the artist" is one of the favorites to win. it picked up nine other nominations including acting nods for its two stars. it's expected to be in a close race with "the descendants" which earned five nominations. martin scorsese's "hugo" earned the most nominations, eleven. it's up for best picture. some surprises in the best picture category included "extremely loud and incredibly close," and "the tree of life." "bridesmaids" had been generating best picture buzz but was left out of the category. it did pick up two nominations for original screenplay and best supporting actress. michelle williams and meryl streep are expected to face off for best actress a category that also includes viola davis and glenn close. george clooney is considered to be a next a close race against brad pitt for best actor. the oscars will be handed out february 26. >> you can go to ktvu.com to view the oscar nominations announcement. >>> san francisco film society executive director bigham

. >> on the prop f category, the category of where our income stream might have a better trajectory thanrtment that's not an enterprise department, is there leeway for our department to be given priorities relative to the prop f? >> i do not think funding sources is what matters. i will continue talking to the mayor's office about it. they're the2ñef ones who have to approve prop f. when you look around at the departments that have brought people back, it is all over the gamut. i do not think the source is what matters. >> i have several issues i want to talk about. i would love if the president could set a meeting with the director and they could talk about that at a different time. is that possible? president hechanova: on which area? >> on the budget. president hechanova: i think we are going to have a special session. >> we're scheduled to have a special meeting at the end of this month. president hechanova: before the end of month. >> i will get the exact date. president hechanova: great. additional questions? commissioner lee: i haven't looked at the budget totally in the tel. you

>> this will be -- this will be a major overview in the category of continuous this.e commissioners can hold your questions or discussions until you have completed your presentation. that will be about 10 minutes or so? >> does this work? >> yes. >> thank you. >> this does not work. >> the microphone? >> it is ok. it is all right. >> ok. >> i wanted to first go through the> you know, if you want to use that one, i have to switch it. which one do you want? >> reconstruction activities. we need to continue to meet the demands for permanent inspection services that we are facing. we need to increase housing and code enforcement in house, with our partners and nonprofit, community-based partner is, increasing the fiscal health of the department. last month he requested a list were looking at. couple of these with titles, not descriptions. we all know the transit bay terminal, the central subway, which also includes union square and chin

let me quickly summarize the five categories, including some of the indicators in the categories as well as why they are important. the first category of indicators includes the quantity, the number of quantities in that number of sites with weapons usable material. includes a quantities themselves, the number of sites and whether not the quantities are increasing or decreasing in a particular country. this is important because it affects the overall potential in a particular country. the second category are the security and control measures. this includes the specific physical protection measures, accounting practices and whether not security personnel are screened. these actions directly affect the security of materials on any given site. the third category is what we call global norms and includes the relevant international legal agreements, voluntary commitments in the level of transparency shown by a country on both materials quantities and security practices. all of these measures affect the international confidence in a countries, and the way the country takes the security obligat

you are now at the general public comment category.bers of the public may address you on items of interest to the public, that fall within the subject matter jurisdiction of the commission. the agenda items may not be addressed through this -- with respect to this category, each member of the public may address you for up to 3 minutes. the entire category has a 15- minute time limit. bob iverson, followed by brad paul? >> i would like to use -- >> if you could identify yourself, this will come up automatically. >> i am bob iverson. i have masters degrees in urban planning and architecture, and i cannot believe i have been practicing for 18 years already in architecture. my concern is with the presentation that has been brought forth on 8 washington. this is an attractive project but there are some issues that i feel are slipping by, and have not been noticed by many people. first off, i would like to compare the proposed plan against the existing plan. some of the imagery, and the square footage areas are very disconcerting. if you loo

there are a couple of other categories. our next biggest category is lifeline passes, which are think is on the order of 20,000 per month. we have been talking about the ability to transition lifeline pass holders over, but the passes are really kind of the low hanging fruit. and we have gotten our big categories already, so the next is really moving to, aside from lifeline, moving to cash bears, which is going to be much slower. >> right, and we have discussed that before, and i know you know my views. my view would be to move to a cashless system or as close to it as we can. i think the efficiency and the safety and the revenue, there are all sorts of reasons to do that, so our would just give you my reaction. i was surprised of the number after all of the average, it was still this low. i guess it is not an indication of the success of clipper. it is an indication the i misunderstood how many cache bears where having on a daily basis, which is apparently a lot, so i would just reiterate i would as a policy matter favor d

. >> is there some category that can be safely projected for next year? no/ ? >> i can work and look at it. they are projecting revenue in this department is difficult because you do not know the projects that will come in or the size of the projects that come in. we do talk to the various expediters about what they're bringing in and what size and where they are bringing in. if they're coming in directly to dbi or directly into planning, but there is no real -- there is no simple way of saying what it is going to look like this time next year in terms of the number of projects. we do our projections based on revenue trend. we do not use any type of seasonality, because there really is not here yet we know when it is raining, people do not work on projects, but terms of bringing them in it is difficult to do that. to go in terms of the base line of putting project on hold, we possibly have a better base of potential projects that will come in? >> commissioners? >> the budget for the coming year the projections include the work we're doing for, and what we're ta

agenda items may not be addressed in this category. with respect to this category, each member of the public might address the commission for up to 3 minutes, skimming in mind the entire category has a 15 minute time limit. i do have speaker cards. >> i am to him. -- tim. good afternoon. i am here on behalf of the housing action coalition, speaking about the washington project which is going to be before you soon enough. we have supported it for years and believe it brings enormous benefits to the entire city. but i wanted to point out that in spite of the rhetoric and controversy, what is being discussed is a simple land use question period should see wall lot 351 main a surface parking lot or not? if not, what should it become? the opposition comes from good people. as even they might concede, they are upper-middle-class and live in one of the most pleasant neighborhoods of san francisco. these poor souls are aggrieved and oppressed because new housing is being proposed for their neighborhood. the housing they are living in displaced

the fourth category is commitment and capacity. this is about the national level of implementation, whether it has an independent regulatory agency that oversees the security practices in this area. the national level implementation is required for an effective security program. the fifth and final category of what we call -- are what we call societal factors. it includes the level of corruption in the country as well as its political stability among other things. these measures provide an important backdrop to specific security practices that may be in place. taken together, these five categories comprise what we call a country's nuclear material security conditions. a brief court about the scope of this project. the scope of this inaugural index is weapons usable nuclear materials, specifically highly enriched uranium stripper -- highly enriched uranium, separated plutonium. it does not include low and risk uranium as is used in a nuclear power industry. finally, countries with less than 1 kilogram of these weapons usable materia

we have 16 programs now in our capital plan that our asset- based categories. all of our tracking and management will be done at the project will and program and portfolio level. commissioner campos: one of the things that stood out for me -- and i understand the difficulty of serving on the city commission where people have full-time jobs, other responsibilities. one of the things that really stood out was the question of why the mta board of directors was not more aware of some of these issues, it if you will. quite frankly, one question that was raised to me was, these types of performance audits are helpful, but why is it that the board of directors is not the one doing this? that is a larger question. in terms of what it means, going forward, what change, specifically, will this entail, in terms of what percentage of the board, -- is there going to be a change in the level of engagement of oversight? what does that mean in terms of what the board will do, going forward? >> this slide speaks to the improved project reporting, which goes to the mta quarterly
