is there any additional comment in support of the dr requesters? seeing none, project sponsor. >> good afternoon. what i seek to do is carefully and thoughtfully convert and actively deteriorated, obsolete, underutilized parking garage into homes for seven families. the building will undergo a complete seismic retrofit, the restored in compliance with secretary of interior standards, and we will generate 30 good- paying construction jobs for a year and generate hundreds of thousands of dollars for affordable housing in schools. the project will also result in substantial city revenues from transfer and increase property taxes. we're here today because of concerns about parking, but that concern is the exaggerated and does not constitute the exceptional and extraordinary circumstances that warranty dr. nobody wants to lose a parking space, but the actual number of spaces in use this year has averaged about 20 out of defeat. currently, 15 neighbors and five businesses read in the garage, and the majority of these bases have been vacant for years. som

especially on an issue that would have come up in the 3/11 process and potentially could have been a dr request to the planning commission. i am not sure -- at this point, i am not sure whether i would find that there is sufficient cause for jurisdiction.

we have two dr requesters. you each get five minutes. >> i have 168 signed petitions against the currently proposed project, and the affirmation i will be presenting to you today. thank you for hearing this. we are currently opposed to current proposed projects that 1945 hyde street. the largest complaint is because this is a neighborhood commercial district in which only 1000 square feet are being used for commercial space. this project feels more in line with a residential development than a neighborhood commercial development in the fact that less than 10% of the space is being used for commercial space and the rest is being used for essential space. the analogy that came to my mind is that had houses are not considered part of an existing building, and yet, they are allowed to take up 10% of a rough area. here you have a neighborhood commercial development, in which commercial space is less than 10%. the highest and best use for this project we feel would be that the total ground-floor be used for commercia

especially on an issue that would have come up in the 3/11 process and potentially could have been a dr request to the planning commission. i am not sure -- at this point, i am not sure whether i would find that there is sufficient cause for jurisdiction. >> i should put on the record that i, too, previewed this hearing on the sfgtv. this is really just a jurisdiction request. what i have heard today, it does not persuade me to grant jurisdiction again. i have some sympathy for the requestor, but -- >> it is ticklish because it seems as though come in a sense, the privacy issue, though it did not come up in the jurisdiction request, the original reason for that request was a that3/11 had not been received -- was that 3/11 had not been received. the appellant, or the requestor, did not go through the process. i'm inclined not to grant jurisdiction. i wish there was some way we could codify what seems to be an arrangement that would prevent someone from standing on that deck and looking toward the window. all that is left to us to do is to hope that we are dealing with someone who is honorable, a

i request that you do take the staff recommendation to take dr to approve this plan with the setback. of also note. there is no requirement for front setbacks in this district, and we are" compliant. with that, we would request that you take the staff recommendation as modified, with no further modifications. president olague: are there any speakers in support of the project sponsor backspin dr requestor, you have two minutes -- the project sponsor? seeing none, dr requestor, you have two minutes. >> the previous plan had living space in this area. i was requesting it be set back further from this property line, our shared property line. i see there is a door here, so it does not make sense to set back this way. also, it being a deck, it does not show my windows. i am requesting this deck be set back instead of being a 20-foot deck. it could become a 15-foot deck and come back from the very edge of the property line. president olague: are you done? because you have two minutes. >> yes. president olague: protect sponsor, you have two minutes. >> i just want to point out and do not unde

requests. dr. mitch were misplaced during that time as well. supervisor campos: was it more of a record-keeping -- >> exactly. most of their records were kept in paper form in boxes in storage. they were unable to find them. supervisor campos: is there a record keeping policy that the hospital has? >> they do have a record keeping policy, correct. >> so of the 212 expenditures reviewed for the six fiscal years under audit, we found we had varying instances of not having the proper approvals, not having the proper supporting documentation, some instances where vendor to not provide invoices for payment. instances that a staffed signature of the laguna honda administrator was used. while this may not be an efficient way of demonstrating the approval of documents that have been previously reviewed, laguna honda has not consistently used the staff signature. also, when using a stamped signature, it is very important how the custody of that stamp is maintained, so that it is not used in an improper manner. laguna honda has no policies and procedures

dr. gill declined numerous requests for an interview, he sent us a letter saying that, since he returnedlifornia, there have been no questions about the quality of his work. in northern california, f.m.g. works for elected coroners, who are also the sheriffs. in yolo county, it's ed prieto. do you do background checks on the forensic pathologists who come to work here? >> we a background investigation to make sure for criminal activity... if they've been involved in any criminal activity. we make sure that their... their... their qualifitate... qualifications or certifications are valid, that they come with some reference. so, yes, we do... we do that. >> bergman: because we got the name of dr. gill, and he's had serious problems all over the united states. >> oh, really? >> bergman: and in 2006, out of a case that he was involved in in sonoma county, the state bar concluded... well, they have a whole chapter here. i can give it to you. it says "incompetent pathologist." >> huh. news to me. i did not know that. and i think you've alerted me to something that i... again, i always depend o

requested an i.d. vice president garcia: so it is a very recent picture? dr. ojo: yes. president goh: dr. ojo, in cases where how the person appears as likely to come up, it might make sense to have the photo and a low as the closed session in order to see it. -- and allow us a closed session. >> i think it is an issue. he has admitted to the sale of cigarettes to a minor. however, to some degree, the factual elements of the cases what did the person actually look like, and that potion -- person in the photograph looks like a baby. it looks like a very young person. if we were in court, it would not be admissible in its current condition. i understand that that is not the objective here. but in fairness and the understand the facts and understand someone who had been traveling and had been suffering from jet lag, that is what i am asking to have considered. commissioner fung: when she turns 18. if we were to reduce this to 15 days, then we would be perpetuated in a performance --

professional psychologist dr john was always ready to help people he knew he always did his best to help but i don't think he ever asked for help at least i never heard such requests from any of i always paused at this traffic light he would get out of the car and walk away i never even saw the house where he lived. the turns out which is unusual style made him stand out in the crowds. but people who saw that man never suspected that he had a five million dollar bounty on his head. individual news for you i lived on the ground floor reason i recall that when my father died he met me at the entrance to the house and gave me his a visiting card with g g w h written on it and he said he was a psycho therapist and offered help if that i interrupted him to come to my foot for a cup of coffee and i felt relieved after talking to him. rather than carrot it's never dyed his hair nor did he ever have plastic surgery. his only disguise was that of old age gray hair and a long beard. both of them because i always thought that the man you often. came here was doctored out which you know rather than i care a ditch the his appearance and behavior betrayed his great intellect as

dr. porter. this is at the request of our chair who is losing her voice, and maybe her patientce. >> should we continue, governor? >> this is much more like my harvard business school class than such an august meeting. let's move quietly, and we will continue the discussion in the time we have. governor herbert, your question about partisanship. i think there are many macroeconomic issues like the stimulus or not that there is a lot of debate on. i think when you get down to the level of competitiveness, there is quite a wide consensus on many of these issues. the big partisan issue that i encounter over and over again is if people think that competitiveness means lower wages, that it's very partisan. but of course, competitiveness is not about lower wages. if you have lower wages, that means you are not competitive. competitiveness is about higher wages. if we can get everybody to understand it is about creating productivity so we can support higher wages, then a lot of the partisan concerns tend to get less vigorous. i think you can communicate to your citizens that my job is to create conditions her

dr. bruce parks who does the autopsies and i was able to obtain through a public records requests all the information in her autopsy file, and to read those autopsy files is heartbreaking. it details every garment that little girl had on. she had on a little bracelet. she had on a black jacket with a silky pink lining. she had on a pair of sweatpants that said hollywood. they are called but pants and that was one of the way she was identified, because the people who knew that she was out there who were looking for her new that. so, gathering together and i have to tell you that was very heartwrenching for me just emotionally, reading about her effects. this is a child that died right here in our state. so to put that story together, i try to imagine and really it is the only story my book in which i kind of had to imagine and didn't just rely on people telling me. i found the weather data for the days that she was out there, and i knew that she had gotten sick and so i knew it was cold. it was a january day so it was when she was abandoned, that whole week in january had been chilly and h

dr. larry gerston, thank you for the insight. jessica. >> thank you very much, gentlemen. former white house press secretary robert gibbs isn't responding to requests from reporters asking whether heel is going to go work for facebook now. apparently he hasn't changed his status as well. gibbs stepped down from his white house job in january. if he does sign on with mark zuckerberg he will have company. last year facebook fired a former white house economic adviser as well. vip response bum for the first-ever tweet on twitter is going back to the company. twitter's original c.e.o. jack dorsey will become executive chairman and oversee the company line of products. dorsey will remain head of a mobile payment service called square located in the bay area. seems californians are a step closer to paying more for the online purchases. an assembly committee voted in support of a measure that would require online retailers to collect a sales tax from buyers right here in the golden state. ouch. they claim it will increase revenue in the state by $250 million to $500 million ape year. opponents say it will put thousand of people out of work. case in point,

dr. hamberg, i appreciate you being here today and answering the questions and presenting your budget request, and i am very focused on in my own way on the drug abuse problem that is afflicting the country and killing young people even as we speak. today in kentucky, three people will die from dug overdoses that could have been prevented, and i think the fda needs to join the fight. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you. dr. hamberg? >> well, thank you very much, congressman rogers for your very powerful statement about the serious problem our nation faces with respect to the abuse of prescription drugs and as you point out, it's one that takes a devastating toll on individuals, families, on communities, on our nation, and it's impact is very, very severe and far reaches, and successful, meaningful, and enduring solutions to it as you point out require two partnerships because there are many players that need to play a role. fda has a critical role, and we care deeply about it, and i'm personally very committed to helping lead the agency to engage more deeply on these issues with our counter
