and this is comparable cities and contrary green standards. the legislation scales the requirement to run for buildings over 4 units. for large buildings over 1 hundred units it will be per scale. for example, a 2 hundred unit building will require about one-hundred and 25 class one parking space and then there will believe class 2 for 20 units are more. the remittance are will be different for other residential use higher for students housing or lower for people with disabilities. the parole also will that tolerate the bike parking by existing types. their categorized for retail and professional services. the youth categories will be aligned in other categories like car parking. different uses generate different parking needs. overall we sought to get the parking. again, this is equal to the lead minimum standards and it's just a little bit over the crowd city rate of bicycle use which percent. this is the city has a as josh mentioned the city has an ambition role to adding 20 percent by 20/20. our proposal would not meet the requirements the

now, when he go to compare city's on a per capital basis san francisco is the red one there. you can see cities with fewer and more taxis including new york which is served by black cars in new york not taxis. we need to place e ourselves here to see how many taxis we need. one place that san francisco stands out is the low levels of vehicle ownership. a lot of homeowners can't food the vehicles. so a few points of interest on a scale diagram we're gop up and to the right have the highest level of non-car ownership. so san francisco is the red dot you see it's below that average line. as the line rises the higher the average number of taxis. if san francisco would move up to the average line the pink bar that would be a 90 percent increase in your number of taxis. but that's overstating your need because that's also cutting into the profitability. in washington, d.c. there's no value and new orleans it's very low. and that is not just this service it's affecting the driver. if we look at the color peers like boston and chicago have strong values equal but they have a lot of ta

through our litter audits that we have done, we have a higher rate of cigarette litter in our cities compared to other cities in canada. expanded again in 2010 to include needle disposal and i said in the other session, this is what i am escaping from in edmonton right now. yay, san francisco. so we have a snow angel program where we ask citizens to voluntarily shovel the snow off their neighbor's lawns. so these are all the programs offered by the capital city clean up program. we started in 2005 as part of the waste management branch and this past year in 2012 we were moved to the community standards branch which is where we are housed now. so we have a very strong link with our programs between the programs that we offer and the community standards or community bylaw ordinances that we're operating under. the lation that we focus in on is 14614, that is the bylaw that governs litter pick up in the city. community standards 146400 is the graffiti standards bylaw. our bylaw is unique to other cities in that we don't focus on the definition of graffiti, we focus on whether or not graffiti is

to go back to the earlier point i made, average one-way prices there, as they compare city by city, and where people just have to travel a lot of times for work and, you know, obviously so much government business done, and the top of the list there, 429 dollars, but the point you are making is important because it hurts people who want to go to small cities, takes forever if flights are not going there. >> well, yeah, it does because the economics of flying an airplane today are different than they were. you can't fly eight flights a day anymorement can't support it. people pay per mile. the ticket prices, in narks, average passenger travels 2,000, just a thousand miles from tulsa. the average price is less, but pay more per mile in tulsa than they are no newark. connell: as always, thanks a lot. appreciate it. >> thank you, sir. connell: lauren with another edition of stocks now from the new york stock exchange standing by with teddy. >> i am talking to teddy, connell, and we have the market on file today, rebounding and strong, but we still have the market climbing this wall of worry

probably higher than any other city. " we have spent on pedestrian safety over the last four years is close to $13 million. >> how to balance the needs of the district compared to the city? supervisor kim: it is interesting representing a district and a collection of neighborhoods. for me, it is interesting because i represent the city of san francisco. i mean you represent those who live in the district. i care very deeply about what is going on in terms of racial tension between asian and african american communities in the bayview or whether we're talking about muni were talking about public safety issues in other neighborhoods -- i think it is important for me to support the issue's going around the neighborhood. i think most san francisco residents do not identify themselves by their district. >> once again, the city is faced with tough budget decisions, including whether to raise taxes and fees or whether to make cuts. how will your approach these choices? supervisor kim: the budget is tough this year. even though our deficit is not as large as it has been, it is tough because we have made these cuts already, and did this point, we are cutting things w

that's the highest robbery rate of any major american city since 2000. when comparedto other bay area cities, oakland leads by far with 851 robberies per 100,000 residents in 2011. san francisco had just 289 while in san jose there were just 115. >> being number one on that list not exactly something to celebrate for oakland but here is something they can get excited about in the east bay city. oakland breaking number one for top real estate nation's list of most exciting cities beating out seattle, washington, d.c., new york, and san francisco. san francisco, the city by the bay, strong, ranking third on the list, checking in just behind boston. real estate in the nation says it looks at a number of criteria when coming up with the list including park acreage per person, percent of population between 20 and 34 years old. also bars, movie theaters, museums, theater companies and music venues per square mile. if you're curious, fast-food restaurants and big box stores per square mile, the few of those, the better you do. population diversity plays in. >>> google glass

the city and county of san francisco has a 7.4 billion dollar budget. that might seem like a lot compared to other cities, for example, the city of philadelphia's budget is about half that of san francisco. for approximately double the population. but, there is a reason for that. we run an international airport, a court, two hospitals, and produce some of our electricity and provide water to every home in san francisco. so our budget is not only for the city functions, but for also, county functions. >> it is also important to note that during the year, the years, voters have approved many ballot initiatives and measures. and mandates. and for us to spend part of our revenues on things that the people san francisco think that are important. we have set aside for services that work for the children. we have approved initiatives that insure that we have an appropriate number of firefighters, to respond to any emergency, prioritized funding for repaving streets and keeping our libraries open. all that means that out of the $7.4 billion annual budget, only roughly 1 billion is discretionary,

building twenty one billion rubles which i believe is around seven hundred million and it's been compared to the city opera house because basically they say it was over budget it was it was full of stress and controversy regarding it opened and it was seen by the australian people is this monstrosity this ugly building at the end of the piece and what have they done to create such a cultural catastrophe but of course through through the years and through the decades as they. the love of the city opera house by this random scandinavian architect was growing to be loved and adored by the people and not as a sense of culture but also as an emblem and indeed an icon for for the city and the country and we hoping that the new marines will do exactly that and much more time for those who love the arts and culture closer margin and this is going to stay with us throughout our coverage. and state changes so that will have one. coming up where you will be talking to some of the most influential people in the arts and culture world here in some people and later on president vladimir putin will be making an app

say that one has to be wary of looking at the information presented in the study as brussels city is compared with other countries for example iceland that level is at a four point seven a portugal a four point eight a cyprus a four point two experts do also say that the infant mortality situation in brussels is a cause for concern it's an indicator of an increased poverty in some parts of the city on the poor neighborhoods in the migrant neighborhoods it's more than fifty percent unemployment. in those neighborhoods of course the living conditions on the very not very healthy and that shows also indeed the figures now this is in addition to a recent o.e.c.d. report which looks at countries with increasing the child poverty and belgium is among them and we also spoke to doctors who says that the problem here of infant mortality has to do with a lot of access to medical services people without papers. are fused into medical services because they have not the right papers it takes a lot of time to have these papers to have access and so on was part of a lot of pressure on the doctors and on the

city's attorneys policies. we came through with 2 hundred and some plus we have no billboard and no wraps of our buses so we really are limited attorneys opportunities for the airports. compare that to other arrangements 2 others have over 6 hundred attorneys locations. we have honored the city's policies. as i said i personally made this decision because i revenge we're going to have a low passenger growth. and we will see a drop in passenger traffic. and the opportunity to lock in a minimal opportunity make sense to me. he received a very competitive bid. one of the birds said their bid was commercially unreasonable. i don't agree but it was a very aggressive bid. i'm pleased with that bid and we've locked in bids to secure our financial future >> sorry you said someone's bid was unreasonable? >> this was the code team to question whether the clear channel bid - said the bid was commercially unreasonable and. >> mr. martin can you talk about one letter you handed back to us i talked about the passenger we can talk about the macro picture here. obviously there's a discussion about the magazine per passenger. i know i have some data here compared to other airports i want to

angela, i'd like to play, again, a clip we heard earlier, glenn beck comparing new york city mayor, mrerg, to hitler. take a listen. >> i've come up for a new advertisement for new york. we all know "i heart new york." i'd like to show you my new advertisement for it, new slogan. there it is. "you will love new york." >> angela, why is so much of their language about the need to fear the government, to be in trepidation and anxiety of government? >> well, martin, what's even more frightening about this politics of fear that they continue to utilize is the very fact that hatred is the foundation for it. to compare mayor bloomberg to hitler, when there's an overwhelming population of jewish people in new york city and, of course, throughout the country, it's so offensive and it brings back unnecessary memories of a genocide that happened under hitler's watch. to restrict gun violence, to ensure people are safe in their homes and their communities, actually flies in the face of everything hitler stood for. this is a mayor who's fighting to ensure communities throughout the country, whethe

robbery for every 91 residents last year, the highest robbery rate of any major american city since back in 2000. compared to other bay area cities, oakland leads this one by far with 851 robberies per 100,000 residents in 2011. san francisco a mere 298 while in san jose, just 115. >>> follow-up this morning. san francisco has given initial approval to create a 25-foot buffer zone around planned parenthood entrances in the city. legislation extends the current eight-foot bubble. there will be a vote next week for final approval. >>> mountainview city council has voted to buy a densely wooded piece of land. the city will pay $3 million for the more than one-acre property. no decision on what will be done with that land but most likely be turned into a park or open space with a community garden. the city will hold public meetings at a later date to discuss potential uses. >>> it's not too often an l.a. dodger gets cheered for doing something at at&t park. matt kemp after this video goes viral, showing him handing over the shirt and hat off his body and shoes off his feet to a dodgers fan this sunday at at&t

city. there are 12 charters counties in california and compared to the state level to how to government runs. charter companies, you have no mayor, in the cities you have mayor's and counsel but not a board of supervisors. we are check to see where it's going on and we don't have an exact city. for board of supervisors and sacramento counties fill vacancy depending on how far the vacancy and how far it is from the election itself. the information is there. when we do a full report we'll break it out. we also want to look at how one of the things we did is for mayor's office that immediately steps in san francisco, that's now how they permanently set to replace the mayor's position. we won't be looking at that aspect of it. we are looking at how to mayor's seat gets filled. the one thing that we had initially intended on doing and with the permission of the commission we are looking at the 10 top cities nationally like new york and one of the things we realize that three of california's nationally top cities. if we wanted to we can go there but since they are outside of california they are di

in 2011 which was the last city survey, 70% of all city respondents rated the park grounds as excellent or good. this compares with 66% in 2009, 57% in 2007. so, you can see we are trending in the right direction. and it is worth noting that only 34% of respondents in those city surveys in 2011 rated overall government performance as excellent or good so, we are tracking above average there. the last thing i would like to touch on and i think it's a good segue to having our human resources director mickey callahan close it out, because she's been very involved in the development of the apprenticeship program and has a lot of experience with the apprenticeship programs statewide, take a stab at your very good question, supervisor avalos. so, how many have you hired -- how many 34 17 or gardeners have you hired that haven't come from the apprenticeship program? and unanswered, there's a reason. the apprenticeship program just started in 2010. we have yet -- we are going to have our first graduation in a few short months. we have been able to hire apprentices in the program that have otherwise net the 34 17 -- t

quotes to your mta agency and you would be amazed at how few local quotes we got as compared to those quotes outside of the city. in other words what i was trying to say is, in order to incorporate local businesses they have to come, to have to talk, and have to quote to us. those quotes are all a matter of record we turned them all in. >> i would be interested to see. >> first of all thank you for standing up. you do not have to. i can think of 840 million reasons. >> i am here to be culpable. >> i'm not looking for culpability. one of the concerns is not so much that when you put the work into a few categories; but by putting work into some of the categories you preclude some of the local businesses from bidding and i want to get a better understanding, your response to what is called the rebundling of the contract; maybe the rebundling is necessary. but i think that what we are hearing is that >> hi. i am cory with san francisco and we're doing stay safe and we're going to talk about what shelter in place or safe enough to stay in your home means. we're here at the urban center on mission street in san franc

now for people coming from the outer edges of the city, 15 or 20 minutes' travel time to get downtown when things are going well at least. if you compare that to our system even optimized, it's considerably more anywhere from 35 to 50 minutes. so, what we're looking at is as more people come to the city, if we're going to choose not just the [speaker not understood] goals you set for the next six years, we're going to need to shift the dial in order to accommodate all of that growth. we're going to need a lot more people on transit in order to do that, we're going to make transit a much more preferable alternative to an automobile. maybe more akin to the kind of travel times that are currently available on bart and caltrain. so, we're focusing on these kind of core corridors and looking specifically at where some of the pinch points are. these are the struggles that john haley and his staff deal with every day when there is a problem at west portal, when there is a problem at church and duboce at fourth and k, it really cripples a much larger part of the system and you get all of market street into that category. and it's a very unforg
