he treated the city of columbia in between these two cities.was afraid the current housing represented where people were living, they would eventually swallow columbia, but everything between baltimore and washington would be ugly, sprawling, unplanned mess. he took this opportunity to buy 14,000 acres of land, which was then pretty rural from farmers and small tracks, milking cows and picnic lunches. he decided to section off this place to create a new kind of suburb. one that explicitly deals with the limitations and problems of existing in the suburbs. he secretly buys all this land and eventually creates this new city. a lot of people were happy to hear that because there were rumors being spread that someone was buying up all the land to create a garbage dump for baltimore and washington's trash. people thought this was perhaps a better idea. his idea was to create a new city from scratch. and the symbol of this new city was this tree, the people tree. he had a corny phrase that he wanted to create a garden to grow people. what are the ing

the city. the last thing a mayor like the mayor rahm emanuel wants to do is to be taken as targeting or profiling an immigration community for their immigration status. it is much more than an important infusion of dollars. it is also the contribution of immigrants to the cities. >> i know that you are opposed to the sanctuary city concept. can you quantify how much, the financial burden of the funds they may be losing if the federal government decides to withdraw those funds. what about on the local level? what kind of budget impact might that have? >> that depends on which funds are withheld. they are making a political choice here. they are determining that they would rather protect people who are in the country illegally, including people who are here and committing other crimes, than they would getting this money from the federal government to meet local needs. so these are choices that these governments are making. by the way, sanctuary cities were outlawed by congress in 1996. the law is

and changes to our city policy. since this policy was adopted city departments adopted resolutions in support of vision zero and outline specific actions that they can take. in june of 2014 the planning commission passed a resolution in support of vision zero and outline specific actions the planning arvind could take to help meet the city's goal. one of these and limitation actions was updating the policies and objectives of the general plan. currently the general plan does not reference vision zero nor does it reflect the city's recent efforts to address pedestrian safety. this is important because the department refused moment applications and makes consistent findings with the general plan. in addition other city agencies reference the general plan while proposing streetscape changes. the ordinance before you would amend the transportation element and the urban design element to reflect the city's vision zero policy. changes incorporated into this amendment include a new objective specific to vision zero includi

what is a sanctuary city?orcement, he will not be asked about his legal status and the local jail won't hold undocumented immigrants for deportation proceedings unless they regard them as violent criminals. despite threats of funding cuts by donald trump, major us cities have already come out in favour of remaining sanctuaries. they represent a quarter of all undocumented residents in the us. and if they don't cooperate, it will be hard for the president—elect to enforce his deportation plan. i want you to know your city will stand by you and protect you every step of the way. at the root of this debate are the values of santa fe, they are values that have been in place since the earliest days more than 400 years ago. with14% of our population being made up of immigrants, we can't afford to lose them back into the shadows all to see them leave our community, because we rely on them showing up day in, day out, to provide critical services to our community. my childrens are american citizens, andl my childrens a

because the mayors of those cities tell them, instruct them. we don't want you doing it. >> no, no, the police departments-- >> the mayor doesn't have the police force's back, what are they going to do? >> let me answer the question, the police departments have said that if we go in there and try to detain people who are here legally, we're not going to have people who will cooperate with us with the communities when it comes to real crime and things we have to worry about and not to overstate the visa and people who look out for the rest of us and cooperate with the police in a variety of issues. that's why they don't want to do it. >> could i jump in quickly? >> i want to jump in quickly, that in the previous administration, we had liberals that were cheering on president obama to coerce private organization, like the little sisters of the poor, or the christian-based bakeries to coerce them to go along with federal directive and now are screaming bloody murder when the federal government is asking cities and counties to go along with dually

city? >> i'm glad you're asking. i think the phrase has been misused in many ways and i think there's probably better ways to explain it. for us it's about protecting people in our city and it's about public safety in jeb because what it says is we have half a million people who are undocumented in new york city. half a million people. and we need them to be protected and be protecting our communities, that means relationships between the police and community are paramount so the police do not, for example, if they learn someone is undocumented they don't turn that information over to the federal government. that's been the case for decades, including during rudy giuliani's mayoralty. that's one example of a city that respects all its residents including the undocumented. >> the logic being if i'm undocumented and i see a horrible crime being committed we want that person to call 911 and not fear that they would then have their status turned over to the federal government. >> we want everyo
