we work, we live, we city hall. i have a point about city hall. i've been to some of your city halls, and they are beautiful, but that doesn't mean the energy inside them is buzzing. to attract young talent to work for mayors that is then going to reshape policy in the way we need for the future, create an environment they thrive in. they only work at amazon and google because it feels good. they want to work at city hall, and the reason they do, mill len y cherish meaning over material goods. show them you're mission driven. they will join. i think even though some city halls look nice and some don't, until we have that buzzing environment that the smartest, youngest, most talented individuals of this country want to go work for, you have not fully succeeded. >> an exclamation point on this with mayors across america. i do think that probably now is the time to think about redesigning the spaces that we work in and how citizens interact with us, and i think that possibilities are just really infinite in how we reconnect physically and in realtime

we found practically no one at all in the center of the city. the city was a dead city.was the second time we took seoul back from the communists, we were paired for what we were to find. you never get used to it though. no in all, the city had water, no transportation, no electricity or power. the chinese occupation forces took most of the overhead wire. kids are the ones who always suffer most. they never know what is going on or why. how do you explain to them after they have just the normal family get killed? ♪ was in very bad shape as far as food was concerned. there just was not any. the communist who profess to be representative of the working people, seem to take it vantage of them. they lived off the land taking their food, not giving them medical treatment. ♪ everyone came back as soon as they could. ofot of them, right out caves. our first job was to get water for civilians and our troops. >> during the occupation by the chinese, there were many fires in the city. this caused a great deal of damage to the city. in order to get water into the islands, we had to

it is not the only european city .you take a look at paris in france, they have already bans most diesel -- banned most diesel cars maybe four 2000. in 2020, all diesel cars will be banned from the streets in paris. the mayor of london also said he will ban diesel cars in 2020 and is been joined by other cities like madrid, athens, or even mexico city. they also want to ban diesel motors in mexico city, and they will do it in five years later to curb nitrogen oxides and other toxins in their cities. as you can imagine, sing all of this, it is not the best time to buy a diesel car right now. germany. while some celebrate -- right now here in germany. while some celebrate this ban, others worry about that consequences to their cities. here are two sides of the discussion. >> the idea of smog conjures up notions of bustling capitals. berlin is one of 17 german cities notorious for breaking legal air pollution limits. could city centers soon be no-go areas for millions of cars? over in frankfurt, the used car dealer marcel

our budget looks like the city budget. we get a work order from all the different city departments with an allocation and do work with and for them under the work order and whatever we don't spend is typically returned to the fund at the end of the fiscal year. there are a couple of departments where the last dollar is general fund dollars, so those are particularly returned to the general fund. in general, we spend something on the order of now 85% of the allocation, sometimes we go over on individual line items and then we have a balancing issue with those departments but we have never overspent our aggregate budget. that's how we develop the work plan. this is a list of our issued reports during the first six months of the fiscal year in reverse chronological order. we have all of our standard reports that we have to issue for the performance side of the house have been issued. those are, expecept for one, th performance report and scorecards and nonprofit monitoring report, the park standards report, the nonprofit moni

because this is around center city.et, because of the very happy partiers after the game's win, we have to knocked down polls, some lights, because the stop lights are completely knocked down, and now a lot of them have been remove off the road completely coming to up some empty spaces cents not sure what to do, they're saying there are some cones in the roadway where there used to be a light. just have to look at the for way stop what your neighbor is doing, that's going to slow you down. again in center city. give yourselves extra time. then an accident here 59 north past the pa delaware state line. heads up on that. pulled off blocking little bit of the left lane looks like flashing lights, and you might actually get a little bit of gaper delay there, as well. accident in delaware, 59 north at 49a speed restrictions down 495, down to 45 miles per hour , jim and rahel, back to you. >> thank you shall meisha. believe it or not football isn't the only reason people watch the super bowl every yearment some people tune in

you want people to come through your city, to see your city, to stop at your city. i always complained about a place like san antonio. you don't go around san antonio, you go into san antonio. they have a ditch that you can spit over that they are so proud of they call it the riverwalk. we have one of the oldest rivers in the country, one of the most historic, that we still have as yet not developed to the extent that people can enjoy. tried to stopn, i the circumventing, but i wasn't able to do it. i was introduced as a mayor. once i finished my tenure as governor, i had thought i was finished with politics forever. i did want to be finished with it. unfortunately, i started seeing things take place in the city that i described what was taking place and saw richmond was a city of corruption and inefficiency. a cesspool, i called it. boy, did they come after me for saying that, the leadership. they did. several council members had gone to jail in disgrace. in 2003, i started a petition to have the mayor elected, not selected by the majority of the council members in

but are they achievable for the smaller employers in the city?i think small businesses rightfully have some concerns about providing lactation accommodations for employees, however we left a lot of leeway in the legislation to account for small businesses that may have small footprints. for example, we don't mandate that you have a lactation room, but rather lactation space. in city hall we have a lactation pod here open to the public. ♪ ♪ >> so the more we can change, especially in government offices, the more we can support women. >> i think for the work place to really offer support and encouragement for pumping and breast feeding mothers is necessary. >> what is most important about the legislation is that number one, we require that an employer have a lactation policy in place and then have a conversation with a new hire as well as an employee who requests parental leave. otherwise a lot of times moms don't feel comfortable asking their boss for lactation accommodations. really it's hard to go back to the office after you have become a mom,

of these city of dusseldorf has some of germany's most polluted air it was one of the cities sued by environmental action germany for repeatedly violating pollution limits of nitrogen oxide well the mayor of dusseldorf is thomas guys or he joins me tonight from dusseldorf good evening to you mr mayor so what does today's ruling mean for you would you now ban diesel vehicles from your city. well good evening well first of all it does not necessarily mean that we have to ban diesel cars i mean what the court has decided is that a ban on diesel cars is legally possible but it has to be implemented by maintaining what they call the proportionality principle that means only if a ban on diesel cars is the only efficient means to reach the threshold values for what is that nitrogen oxides and as it is in english and nitrogen oxide only then it needs to be implemented what it really are other means there are other channels what are more are what are they i mean you were there the dirtiest air in germany so why not ban diesel engines that would seem to be the easiest the best solution for you

i can't stay away from the excitement of the edge of a city -- of a great city or working to find the best role for that edge in the city or reaping the benefits of the investments we and private people -- city and the private people make in those areas, and taking leadership because it's so visible. it tells the story about a city. in that experience, i think mission rock stands out for me. i've been engaged since day one, jack, on the project, and i think it's really stayed true to its values, open arms and focus on the public first. i'd like to emphasize the way in which the community has played a significant rollover ten years, and in ten years i have to stay engaged, nimble, and inventive. we have made partners, partners from the local community, partners around key issues, environment and energy, and focusing then, inviting them to be our partners and making decisions are what this committee looks at, land use and transportation. we invited them to be our partners in order to get down to specifics. the neighborhoods and particularly the local neighborhoods where people have grow

can city college, for instance -- i'm not going to speak for city college. but my observation is they have also other land around city college that can be developed as a parking lot. so, that's my comment. i'm going to go ahead and ask my colleagues to support this sort of framework piece so we can move on and have both the developers and city college come up with concrete solutions. >> chair peskin: commissioner safai, do i see your name? >> supervisor safai: yes. i think these are all good points brought up today. i have been listening as supervisor yee, our districts are bound by this project in this area and it is a traffic nightmare. there's a lot of concern. i know the balboa cac and city college cac and others have reservations about this. but i think some of the reservations aren't necessarily about this particular plan, but they're more about the long term plan. and i think both supervisor yee and i've heard very strongly that there's desires for certain things that because this is going to be a development agreement, ultimately, those things can be

we're all here because we understand that our city like our cities across the state of california, ishomelessness crisis. our streets and sidewalks are filled with people who are struggling with mental health challenge, drug addiction and poverty. this cannot be the status quo. it cannot be the new normal and it is not something we're going to accept here in san francisco. homelessness is a complex issue that requires a full gamut of solutions. we have to prevent people from losing their homes and we're doing such great work as a city, when you think about the move assistance programs, the eviction prevention programs and the grants we have that remove barriers to housing. we're doing that work here in san francisco. in the unfortunate circumstances where people do lose their homes, we have to pursue measures that are successful and proven here in the city of san francisco. such as our homeward bound and navigation centers, truly working to save the lives of people on the streets every day. these centers are a crucial part of the program in san francisco, compassion. but commonsense i

the city is fedoten up. i know you don't want to discuss the shuttle program, but it's ironic you're suggesting environmental impact, because you've clearly not applied those same standards to the shuttle program. we have these 61 buses belching into our windows in the morning. i'm vehemently against anything that doesn't serve the people and that's all the public has been seeing. so people are on edge and you have to understand the congestion. and there is no recourse. which is why again, you're getting a lot of e-mails and photos because they're not writing citations, no one is policing this and no one gives a hoot about the people, what it's doing to our health and peace of mind in our communities and that's what needs to be addressed and some other situation put into place. thank you very much. >> thank you. any more public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. this also was a presentation and discussion item only. >> if i may just address these last comments. i want to make sure i

initial funding from the city to make sure the city is the owner. private investors could be invited to participate. other public agencies could be invited to participate. there's many options to look at. the city would need to at least own half of the shares so it's a public bank and the business strategy and goals and objectives remain true to what the city has established in the first place. method for obtaining profitability would need to be part of the plan. there's a lot of worthy causes, it would have to be a business minded organization that could take more risk than your average large commercial national bank wants to but would have to earn a return and keep going as a viable business. there's certainly room there between the highest risk kind of loans and investments and things that the big banks won't touch and we know there's a lot of underserved communities with the current system. finally, you know, there's got to be staffing and facilities that will have to be a computer system and lawyers, all the things that banks need to have to op

this is a crisis in our city. just to be clear -- i will read these into the record, so when we do talk about the rent we are excluding production, distribution repair. we are excluding retail sales and services. entertainment. arts and recreation uses. nonprofit uses and small business. so to a large degree a lot of the income that this is going to generate is coming from large commercial entities that frankly are getting great tax breaks on their federal tax bill court sieve developer and chief in washington, d.c. so the urgency of this can't be understated. and i feel -- as a member of the board, that we are shirking our duty if we don't take some steps to address this crisis. just going to the middle income -- i know one of the speakers talked about the problem with teachers. we're not going to have an education system. we are already pe perlously close. and what are you going to do is not have classrooms with teachers. but if we can keep raising salaries for teachers but in a lot of ways. our housing -- the w

in 2016, our city grappled with crisis seen in a lot of american cities, the dissolution of trust amonghe community and law enforcement. responding to cries from our community for improvement, mayor lee reached out to attorney general lynch and the department of justice and san francisco entered into an agreement to evaluate the police department and get independent analysis of how we could serve our city. the department of justice presented recommendations and our city embraced all recommendations and to work closely with the justice department. to date we have started more than half of those reforms and huge credit to the police chief bill scott and the men and women of our police department that have embraced the reforms. we have some of the best officers in our country. and we are seeing promising improvements with use of force incidents down 18% just last year. unfortunately, attorney general jeff sessions announced that the department of justice would no longer provide assistance or guidance to departments seeking to improve the trust between the police and the public. but under m

it's onerous for taxpayers and for the city, frankly. i think that there is many good reasons to try and do that again to finally retire the payroll tax in the future. >> thank you. >> supervisor fewer? >> yes. thank you very much. i just have one question. you mentioned that there is the pass-through for the proposed commercial tax is limited. limited at what are the limits sort of? can you just -- just a layperson here. >> sure. essentially what happens when anybody is faced with a tax is -- or any business, for example, is faced with a tax is they try to say, well, can we get our customers to pay for it? can we get our suppliers to pay for it? and you have to do a lot of statistical moulding of economic data to get a reasonable estimate about how much someone who is charged the tax can get away with passing it on in the case of the commercial real estate their customers. what we know from economics is that your ability to do that really depents about how sensitive you are to rents. if you are as a customer highly sensitive to rents, s

and european cities on climate. mayors across the world continue to make progress on climate, both in mitigating emissions, improving resiliency. i might mention it's important to remember, i think we forget to consider this many times that those of us living in the united states, i won't say america because our canadian friends are here and they're way down and are better off on the scale than we are, but we produce as citizens of the united states more carbon per person than any other country on earth. so we can learn from what people in other countries are doing. i encourage all of us to do that. in fact there's been a number of mayors that have been working with european cities for some time including our past president, elizabeth kouts of burnsville. i've had the opportunity to make several trips to europe working through the german-american marshall fund. i had recently had the mayor of bonn -- in bonn last year for the follow-up to the paris talks. so let me ask mayor cownie to offer some initial remarks and

how do integrate these smart city concepts into cities that are highly urbanised and populated ?irst generation smart city for instance or even other cities like shenzhen, what we see is that there is a great wealth of knowledge and a shared intelligence where people want to actually create start—up companies that will actually help bring people from the slums and give them jobs then give them aid at a place to live, what we are seeing is that in these first—generation smart cities, there has been that kind of opportunity for people to grow within the cities. so that is smart 1.0. what about 2.0? 2.0 city is one we start to see, well, if the first generation was all about big companies, big infrastructure, technology and the economy, very top—down government riven, the second generation is all about people power, all about what is in it for me? what is it for my culture, what is in it for me on the street? what about the third generation? they start to the environmental aspects. we are all aware of the climate change agenda, keeping a lid on temperature rising. what we see isa on
