. >> yeah, i just wanted to add i'd like the studies that eric brooks and bruce wolf referenced, if you could make sure that we have access to them. and i'm supportive of moving forward with the scope as you have outlined as a first step and i really appreciate commissioners lindo and crews participation in this. >> thank you. so is there a motion to move this item forward with positive recommendation? okay, by miss crews. commissioner crews. >> madam chair, there's no action on this item. >> it says for clarity of discussion and possible action so i want to, i think that it's appropriate for us to take action to agree to allow mr. fried to work on developing this and implementing the existing timeline proposed. so that's the motion on the floor. okay, that motion is moved by commissioner crews without objection. the motion passes and we move forward with the development of the plan. thank you. okay, madam -- do i need a second without objection? >> no, you needed a second for that motion. >> okay, thank you. i didn't realize that, sorry. >> second. >> okay, seconded by commissioner mar

. >> hi, eric brooks again with san francisco green party and local grass roots organization our city. bruce and i are both also members of the public net coalition which helped avoid the earth link google did he debacle with the help of lafco avoiding that potential monopoly problem that wouldn't have been good for service. i just want to expand on the last point bruce made, which is that we don't want to low ball this because it could impact electricity service and community choice segregation. a lot of this could be (inaudible) so this could affect the ability to lay conduit for those type of things and then what i would ask the commissioners to do is look not at kansas city , which was privatized and clearly nonsense, look at chattanooga, look at the gig, look that up. chattanooga is getting a gigabyte or higher speeds to customers in their city for very low prices because they created a city-wide public owned, city owned broad band network over the entire city. so what mr. wolf was talking about was that we need what we need people like jason to do and studies like this to do is

. >> good afternoon, one more time, commissioners, eric brooks, just wanted to touch on two things. i think you have another item i could say this at, too, which is future agenda items. once the internex report does come forward in december or january, i think it's really crucial, kind of dovetailing with what mr. holtzman said earlier that one of the important things i saw in the internex report is that it recommends, it says now we should do a plan for how to build out reknewables and efficiency in the city. i don't think that we can wait for the sf puc even if they become more helpful to do that plan. so i would hope that right away that the lafco would have lafco staff have executive officer fried put out a very soon so that right after the internex report is done we are then next year getting the plan ready for the local build out and for clean power sf so that when we finally get the sf puc on board we are ready to move forward with the program immediately. we want to see this program go forward next year or 2016 at the latest. so that's one aspect, that's what we want on that

. >> good afternoon, supervisors eric brooks brooks i take it the sustainability chair for the green parties it is important with we move forward pieces of legislation like this we're not telling me rec and park and the planning department they've got cart blank to cut down trees with the climate crisis we need to stop that policy we can't just keep cutting down large trees like the eucalyptus 80 that gaths gather carbon monoxide 0 more than any tree i'm not saying which wyoming way to vote but not to allow the clear cutting of the trees if our parks system. >> thanks. >> is there any additional public comment on item one seeing none, public comment is closed and supervisor kim would i have a motion to forward to the full board we'll take that without objection. without observation that will be the order. >> item 2 is a approving of an easement with the surface project on 923 fulsome street. >> we have the department of real estate. >> this authorizes the grant of a sub surface tieback and surface access to fulsome which is where fire station number one is located the just a minute p

. >> good afternoon again supervisors eric brooks san francisco green local grassroots and representing the san francisco clean energy aligns with hanging and 350 sf first of all, to thank the authenticities for this legislation it the crucial that the san francisco rules committee sells this power at recites i respectfully strongly disagree with others who came forward claiming that is a mandate we've heard from the staff this is not a mandate this is just gives the sfpuc the stools to eye it's good judgment to make a deal for logical purposeers when it's good for them and if the sfpuc decides that pg&e is the better service provider so be it this self-mandate anything to get to clean power sf it is we've been working with you all and the city attorney trying to make sure we have the language for the clean power sf two sunday's ago the huge power with the international peaceable on global warming we have to make sure this board gives the strongest possible voices when it speaks to sfpuc we feel since the city attorney was clear that makes the sfpuc has the discretion we i think it's ok

. >> good afternoon, commissioners, eric brooks representing san francisco green party and the local grass roots organization, our city. so just i'll keep it to the internex report for the most part. i did read the executive summary last night and it looks like, just based on reading that summary, there are some really exciting thing about reading the report, there are some things that raise questions. what's really exciting is that the report really nails down what the previous report started to say, which was that this program can be handled in house by the san francisco public utilities commission with regard to purchasing energy and running the program and even conceivably doing customer service. makes clear that the sf puc cannot only serve that role but can make its own income from this so it can be beneficial to the sf public utilities commission 's budget. another thing that's nailed down really well in the report it shows a lot of actual projects can be built and it shows what advocates and consultants have been saying for almost a decade now, which is we can get a thousand

when he testified in the grand jury, and when you give testimony at trial, brooke, you have attorneys, very good attorneys like eric guster, and they will go in there to cross-examine you, and you say you have injuries, sir, and show you the injuries, and that is the significant injury that you had that caused this to occur, and so that is what i am talking about and the grand jury has the information out, but the extent to which you are not pressed. >> and that is the point yesterday of challenging the credibility, and on that point, quick break and stay with me, gentlemen, because i want to play more sound and we heard the comparison from the grand jury testimony from the officer comparing michael brown to specifically hulk hogan, and let's talk about that on the other side of this break. stay with me.

eric: well, president obama choosing loretta lynch for the eastern district here in new york, brook liphis next choice for attorney general as the lame duck session in congress returns. republicans, though, not happy about that, and some of them wonder could this with -- could this be all politics? richard fowler and scotty hughes. she served under two presidents, president clinton and obama. harvard, she's a veteran prosecutor, some say she's a safe choice. >> definitely a safe choice, very well qualified. in fact, i think she's probably more qualified than eric holder. [laughter] but the question is, is that president obama did her no help by appointing her literally four days after he got shellacked by the gop. that first raises a lot of concerns, and then people start looking into her which is there's not much to look into except for a very good, even record when it comes to who she prosecuted, but we don't know much else about her, like where she stands politically outside of a couple sound bites she might have given in the past. eric: well, richard, won't that come out in potentia

eric, thank you for coming on. you know, you are a survival instructor but it wasn't quite the situation so many people assumed that he was surviving in the woods. >> no, certainly not, brookei know during the hunt and after he was arrested, he's been referred to as an expert survivalist and frankly i cringe at the term. it was nonsense all along. >> what about the fact that he had wi-fi. that's one way he could have been clued in as to where police were when they were looking for him. >> i can understand it in his particular situation. there are seven survival priorities and any kind of wilderness setting or emergency urban disaster signal is what you would refer to that in terms of being able to reach out and make contact. certainly in his case he didn't want to make contact but it was a way to keep tabs on the police and help his escape. in that sense, i can understand it. >> sure. and then when you look at this list, we pointed out some of it. compass, think pad. firm grip gloves. tarp. et cetera. how long given all of this that was found with him in that hangar, how long do you think he could have lasted? >> i don't really think he could have lasted much longer. when h
