in europe hamburg successfully address this challenge in the inner city district of hafen city. exposed as it is to the north sea this german city has experienced impressive floods in recent decades. this is one of the areas of hamburg which are regularly flooded in case of a heavy stop so. for instance not a sixty two when we had a very heavy storm surge the water was standing up here and at the heaviest storm surge we ever heard we were standing up here and to deal with this type of hazards that people have here in the house to seize take a steel doors which are closed in case that that water is coming. situated in a flood zone and the new district of half the city has been entirely elevated to protect it from violent storms on the north sea. to have an city is an island is a river elbe s two are and it is supposed to bear forty five thousand jobs and tremendous development in terms of residential and commercial development . so how can you protect this area it gets their high flooding risk coming from the north sea we decided to raise alert in order to need the link it's. bet

city for instance. over the last fifteen years that had nine eleven terrorist attacks a big blackout as well as the crash. and the housing crisis that affected its primary industry the financial services sector and yet the city has been able to weather the events. along with superstorm sandy and really continue to thrive in the face of them so that that looks like a little bit of what resilience in the. reconstruction of new york depends on its capacity for resilience and on taking into account the climatic threat beginning his second term of office a few days after the passage of hurricane sandy u.s. president barack obama wanted to rethink the city from a more global perspective under the title of rebuild by design obama's project has been intrusted to a global expert in water management dutchman. this specialist believes in the need for a holistic approach. i remember my first interview when i moved to new york in d.c. and the interview was on. and the first question was asked so mr overing are you g

to catch up with other cities, like new york city. while the language for that reform is ready, we want to wait until the budget legislative analyst report to provide details on what the costs of this to the city would be. we are also continuing to examine as the ethics commission has raised, limiting the fundraising window for office holders to run for office, both prior to election day and after election day. and also, adding to the pamphlet that is sent to san francisco registered voters, current campaign activities for all of the candidates and ballot measures to a certain date of that election day. i look forward to this ongoing conversation, both with the stakeholders, the board of supervisors, and the ethics commission and colleagues, hope to get your support as we move this ordinance through the process. the rest i submit. >> president breed: supervisor peskin. >> supervisor peskin: thank you, to supervisor kim through the president, i have not read the legislation, but it sounds very good and upon reading it, hope to afix my

when bowman surveys the city he sees a number of construction cranes the city wants to expand and ambitious aim in times as uncertain as these but the mayor is confident twelve percent of g.d.p. preeminence within within that within the clay with the stringent on and we will continue that. diana chan doesn't share this optimism she's the director of the london branch of a dutch clearing house london is an important location for her as half of her customers are from britain bricks it looms large in the back of her mind she doesn't want to discuss it but uncertainty is growing. chance as people in the financial sector are busy making contingency plans for a hard breck said one with no new trade deal with the e.u. business is need a lot of clarity and what i concerned about is that between november and march there will be sufficient clarity and then people will need to embark on implementing their worst case scenario once those plans have started to be implemented they will be finished there is no turning back so if somebody decided to go they go yes yes. the city could lose as many as seventy

the flood plunged the city into chaos. from the planet's perspective floods are routine events we regard them as the most destructive natural disaster. or coastal floods very widely and they cause tremendous damage and actually mortality i mean two hundred thousand people have been killed in the last thirty years for. coastal floods alone. there's been a lot of major coastal flood disasters over the last few years and in one thousand nine hundred one in bangladesh about one hundred thirty eight thousand people are estimated to have died in the thousand nine hundred like them the grizz about a hundred and thirty eight thousand people again were estimated to be killed and more recently in the philippines typhoon hyaena six thousand people were killed and those are just a few examples even in the developed world people have died in hurricane katrina about two thousand people were killed in about eight hundred of those were in new orleans and in cycling sandy about two hundred people were killed more and more people are moving

next we're going to hear from city administrator, city administrator actually chairs our planning committee. when these projects get delivered or they get conceived, they actually go through a serious vetting process. it is a process to approve them. it is through her leadership that these projects are actually able to happen. when we work on these projects. when we have challenges or we have concerns, we always have to make sure the city administrator knows what happened h. we're very thankful to the voters. there's only so much money. we have to finish these projects on time and on budget. under her leadership, we developed another one. welcome as city administrator. >> thank you, mohammed. i don't know if anyone said it yet, but welcome to the new medical examiner facility. >> and you heard the mayor and supervisor breed talk about the hall of justice. we are trying to decant the hall of justice so we can demolish that building. i was watching the historic movie, "bullet" with steve mcqueen in the late 60s. they filmed a lot of the scenes in the medical examiner facility. i thought to my

what would happen to our city? i ask you keep that in mind and it's not the end all, be all but with other laws like vacancy control you can create a san francisco for the people, by the people. thank you. >> supervisor: thank you very much and happy birthday. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. my name is guillaume bradley and i'm a tenant. i live in the sro. one of the better ones but i'm on ssi. okay. we haven't had a raise in four years for cost of or nothing. if we don't have rent control and our rent keeps going up but we keep the same money. i've been thinking about that and thinking about that. my landlord said there's nothing i can do about that. you're a good tenant but every time you look around i'm giving out more and more money. we need that rent control. i hope and pray i'm speakering speaking for a lot of good people in there and i hope i speak for them when i say repealing that costa-hawkins act, that's a no-brainer. do what's right. okay. thank you. >> supervisor: thank you very much. next spe

the city attorney. they weren't here. there is always city attorneys there. but they feel this issue wasn't important. >> president buell: i heard from them shortly after, trust me. >> ace, what do you want? i made a big boo-boo. well then, i only got two minutes, ridiculous, but i'm hoping and praying that we're going to put together a committee. know this process is just to remove the name, but there is another process on selecting the name to go on there. that is a process that i don't want no flaws, no mistakes. we want a fair chance to rename the thing. everybody is up here trying to put this name, that name. i've got a bombshell. let's name it barack obama, because there will be no challenge, no denial. we get the federal building, state government and you can put everything else. that is my proposal. my name is ace, i'm on the case. barack obama and his first lady, because that's history there. blacks come from all over the world just to be in that place there and then learn about the problems we have in the city. then they'll learn about people that w

cities want this prize. to be part of that but not part of the european union? isn't it cherry picking the fun bits? dagg the fact is the european capital of culture sets out, it's an enormousjuggernaut capital of culture sets out, it's an enormous juggernaut that goes around europe every year, its lands upon one or two cities. sometimes many. i mean in the millennium year, 2000, there were about eight capitals of culture. the host cities, host countries, are chosen years and yea rs before. we countries, are chosen years and years before. we always knew we were going to have 1990, 2008 and 2023, it comes every 15 years. they decided in 2014 we could be part of it. exactly. it's one of the many things, as we near the time to exit, this is one of the many things which is suddenly going to, you know, fall apart in our hands as we are looking at them. a lot of work will have gone into putting these bits together, how much money spent? millions. i was lucky enough to be chosen to be on the panel because i'm chair

no one in this city is complacent. we saw the strength of that resolve last night with a large crowds that attended the annual halloween parade in the village and we'll see it again on sunday when 50,000 people compete in the marathon and another 2.5 million people cheer them along the route. nypd, f.b.i. and all of our law enforcement and partners remember our past and we work very, very hard together each and every day to prevent the type of thing that occurred here yesterday. what happened yesterday was not okay and will never be something any of us will accept as inevitable. since 9/11 we again along with our partners at the local, state and federal level, have disrupted or prevented two dozen plots against new york city. countless lives have been saved but none of that matters when eight innocent lives are taken by a criminal committing a cowardly act driving a rental truck. we're working hard to get to the bottom of exactly what happened yesterday and why. and we're working tirelessly to prevent anything like thi

i really want to re-emphasize the vision of this city and the residents of this city.e truly are a world-class city. if that is not a testament to it, i don't know what is. so, thank you all for the vision of implementing this service and let's get this train on the road. thank you. [applause] >> thank you, ed . i didn't see the former chair here. now he is the former chair. i don't have to acknowledge him because he is not my boss anymore. [laughter] but i do want to give a special shout-out to tom nolan. under his leadership of the board that we brought forward the central subway and brought forward this procurement and we would not be here but for not his leadership. thank you for that. [applause] and so with all of the fire power that you've heard from represented here that put together the money, that put together the leadership, that authorized and approved all of this to happen, someone actually had to do the work. and that is where some might say the part really begins. somebody had to execute on this promise that we made to our funders, to our policymakers, mo

so i had a couple of questions for the city attorney and city staff. i want to have a little bit of clarity on what happens january 1. so existing m.c.d.s would be able to operate. yes? >> supervisor, the state is looking for authorization from a local jurisdiction for that activity because we have controls on our books right now for medical cannabis retail. absent the controls for any sort of activity beyond that. the state would, if an applicant were to go to the state and seek a state license, the state would turn to us and say what do you authorize? the state knows that we're having these conversations right now. they have our legislation in their hands. so they would know that we are working through authorizinging some sort of activity and would not issue that lnls. -- that license. >> well, will we have licenses for cultivation, testing? >> our existing cultivators would not have the authorization locally. cultivators, manufacturers, dispensary and some nonstore front delivery would not have that authorization testing facilities as well to go see

our city overall is a very safe city. but there are things that we can do to be resilient and individual lends and some of these things may sound like common sense. when you are caught in the moment of the day sometimes you lose track of what you are doing and you get distracted. the main thing is to pay attention. pay attention to what you are doing. if you do that your resiliency goes up and your vigilance goes up. the last thing is look out for your neighbors. if you see something, say something. the cell phones that i just mentioned, be safe in doing so. but if you have a situation where you need to call 3-1-1 or 9-1-1, do that. 9-1-1 is an emergency situation. somebody is getting a, thated f you see a crime in progress, that's a 9-1-1 call. if your car gets broken into and there is no danger, that is a 3-1-1 call. we'll get there and take a report. or you can do that report online. i want to end this on a positive note. i started this with this season is all about giving, sharing and taking care of each other. i thin

are we gonna be the nanotech city or the biotech city? and i very quickly realized that clusters of economic growth don't happen because a local government official decided that they would. they happen because you create the right kind of conditions. when people ask me, you know, are you gonna be a high tech advanced city or are you gonna be focusing on manufacturing, to me that's a false premise and a false choice. - how's that? - for example, we just finished up a contract at am general, one of our manufacturers, they make hmmwvs. they're also making, or they were making mercedes vehicles, an r class, an suv that sold to the chinese market. so you got american union autoworkers making a german car going to chinese customers, they're sending their goods to asia, not their jobs. that contract wrapped up and now we're gonna retool that same facility, it's gonna be making electric vehicles for a silicon valley based firm that's backed by chinese investment. point is, there are absolutely ways that workers can play a role in a globalized aut

what is clear in the city of san francisco is our city is suffering. the do no harm correlation are fighting oppression and it's impossible to predict how many more cases we will have to have of seniors being evict and dying in our hospitals before the city takes the health crisis seriously. we need an increase in affordable housing and market-rate housing will not solve the problem and we need to repeal cost of hawkins. thank you. >> supervisor: next speaker. and please come to the mic after the last speaker speak. >> thank you for letting me speak. i'm judy stocker. i appreciate you're giving eight of time to the report and to the issue. and i can't stress enough the importance of not just losing affordable housing but losing the richness and strength of community. i've lived in my home in the upper haight for 29 years and we were served with an ellis act eviction in december and we were devastated and we need your help. this is not just attorney generalic -- tragic because we're losing our homes but being forced from our community. we have a diverse

here you find a city style that's modern. but also elegant and it always has a touch of that certain something yeah. it was it. just what do you do as an image consultant what are the possible first and foremost image consultants accompany you and take care of various things and they make sure you go into the right shops then they help you find the right style and fit of garments and protect you as a customer from hard sell shop assistants bent on making a profit. on the plot i really make sure my clients find clothes to suit their needs if you tell me you have to attend an event and make a certain impression i look specifically for items that are suitable to you walk out in diamonds in and finish me that i am in very good yeah let's see what we can find out how with the hard work yes let's accept the good. i usually get all my clothes on line but i think that a shopping spree with expert advice is a lot more fun. as it was my first let's look at your figure so you can also develop an eye for what to look for an article that

this is a city of innovation. this is a city figuring out next year's, the next decade of issues and challenges. i'm super excited about your leadership. i like spending time in san francisco. and you have the cream of the crop in san francisco. you have innovative leaders who are figuring out ways to figure out these challenges and mayor lee and mr. weiner are champions of parks and open space. they know that being champions for parks and open space are being champions for climate resolution and champions for all of that. and we have a organization that creates access to communities for access to nature for all. we do that with mayor lee on parks around the city including vodecker park a couple of miles away. and what this bill is starting to figure out is how we solve the issue of population growth, of the scarcaty of land for parks and open space, and the increase of costs for parks and open space. and this bill is solving -- it is beginning to be a piece of the puzzle to solve all of that an as we do work arou

it made me very proud of new york city. and all the people of this country, to see that strength in the face of adversity. this morning, people went to work. kids went to school. no one thought there was any choice, but to stand up to this act of terror. so as we now move forward, we start with giving our prayers to the families of the eight who were killed. they, as you heard, six of them came from other nations here. because they saw new york as a special place to be and we now, and forever, will consider them new yorkers. they shared this tragedy with us. we will wremember them as new yorkers. they were here because this city is a beacon to people all over the world, a place that every kind of person comes to and is respected. and that won't change. 8.5 million people here, we understand this was an attack on our values. it was an effort to break our spirit. but as an effort to break our spirit, it failed. new york city is a very strong and resilient place. we have great faith in the men and women who protect us. we have

we have chosen jurisdictions, a couple of them here in the city of san francisco, a couple other cities have similar functionality. we have basic information and doing interviews, we expect to issue a report before the end of the calendar year and have this available for presentation to you in your january peting. so that's where we are with the benchmarking. the standardized template, comparing it to the material that was in our annual geo bond report presented on in september and the table that i included in your packet has differences between them. i guess my suggestion here are that the same information is largely in both. there isn't a substantial schedule or report that you're not getting in your quarterlies that was in our annual. i do think there are some visual and layout improvements that the quarterly would benefit from just looking at it and looking at some of the ways the information is presented. the changes in format and that sort of thing. there are consistency improvements across the program that could be made. could be added to the quarterly and improve it, visual grap

we prompt a change at city hall. also: lynn smart: and i paid it and paid it and paid it. announcer: a woman's mortgage payment is repeatedly wrong, and it cost her thousands. we challenge the math. and later-- david lin: i wait for a week, nothing happened, and that's when i contacted nbc bay area. announcer: a $9 conundrum at a car wash, why one man stood his ground, and why we took his case. here's consumer investigator chris chmura. chris chmura: good evening, and thank you for joining us. over the next half an hour, we hope to prove our tagline. we respond to every call and every email we receive. since we started "nbc bay area responds" at the end of may last year, our consumer investigative center there has received more than 7,000 calls for help from people in the san francisco bay area, and we have taken action. we've recovered a total of $1.1 million for the people who've called in. we begin tonight with a call about a morbid mix-up involving a family's cemetery plot. a 74-year-old north bay viewer was simp

city hall was lit up pink, and we received both mayoral and city proclamations. acting over the years clearly demonstrates the unity between the city's leaders and planned parenthood. and because of this powerful partnership, our organization is able to dream big into the future with the creation of a new flagship site here in san francisco. we have reached our capacity as our valencia site, and our new site at bush and vanness will allow us to double the number of patients that we serve. and this site will become a reality because of the support of city hall, department of public health, and many generous supporters. so lastly, i say -- thank you. lastly, i thank the national institute for reproductive health for this work. this indicator and index will continue to not only hold ourselves accountable, but others, to maintain the highest levels and scores throughout the country. thank you, and it's an honor to be here. >> thank you so much, gilda. that's our speakers for the day, and i just wanted to thank everyone for being here, and to encourage us all to take

creating a better city that's the job of architects and city planners. so how can they create affordable living space that's more than a mere roof over people's heads. housing that suits different income levels. lifestyles and culture of. the day outset collected suggestions. this talk how many submissions focused intensely on the social aspects how people live together and at the same time privately. those who share more that's the inspirational message from tokyo one of the world's most expensive cities private space there is minimal but there's plenty of public space. sharing works well within a building too of course like at this housing community. cluster apartments enable new kinds of living arrangements because the way people want to live changing. their growth the big changes are bound to happen since only a fraction of people live in the classical family unit like they used to in cities and half the apartments are now occupied by singles and other people live in patchwork families or in big shared flats there are all kinds of living arrangements

and the city attorney with d.t. managers and that's helpful to understand procurements and to work to make process improvements in that area. in the area of work orders, we are implementing our new interdepartmental service agreements and templates that prompts for line item budget, delivery timeline, scope of work and the basis for cost, that those will be documented for the work orders. we have procedures and policies drafted that are compatible with the controllers new people-soft system so we need to leverage that technology and the capability of that system to improve our business process and we will do that, and are doing that. in the areas of project manager that was discussed, we are evaluating our resource and staffing priorities and we must support our core functions and projects. we have implemented formal protocols on planning project management and scope definition, which is very important to making sure that you deliver a particular widget on time and don't end up with a never-ending project. we have t

city and county employees afraid of being retaliated by city and county staff. as you learned, audrey today, her situation is many that we face today within different departments. audioly leong and both exercised our seiu shop store responsibilities and duties. we stood up and testified against harassment, discrimination, bullying and corruption. audrey, myself, and many other city employees from different departments spoke and testified in front of the civic services commission in december 2015, and many times in 2016, we report some of the people pay to get their jobs, while other people who passed the exam and more qualified and make it to the hiring list were never had a chance to be hired? the civic services commission was created to stop corruptions. the mission of ethics commission is to practice and promote the highest standards of ethic behavior in government and promote a work environment that is value health, well-beings, and diversity. the merit system, it's for fair employment and fair hiring practices. director of human services director mickey cal

san francisco is a dense compact city. it has large patches of residential districts throughout the west side of the city. it's important to have options. it's taken me personally five years to fine a new location after getting shutdown by the federal government crackdown in 2012. i can attest to the difficulties in finding willing landlords for spaces that are ada accessible. i want to support on-site consumption for vaporization along with hvac. this is an important aspect of medical and therapeutic cannabis use and sidewalks and other places for use. cannabis helps relieve many symptoms. thank you for your time. >> thank you sir. >> hello, i'm valeri schmaltz, i live in district 4. i'm not chinese i'm white. i want to point that out. i grew up in district 5 5 and this cultural thing is racist and xenophobic. i'm so o shamed shamed that these people that we elected are able to talk like thd can it's lacist. i'm appalled by it. so i want to get that out kidd grew up on 15th avenue and the freedom hong kong started coming
