, they‘ re prepared and whatever it maybe, more baggage, etcetera, they're prepared to pay it with anoes with it. if it becomes all about price, be that the price transparency on flight website and the number, do you lose that thing that you have had for so long? we must deliver what we have done in the past, create the aspirations through the brand marketing programme and deliver the aspirations and better and somehow we have got to be able to do that cheaper and i believe we can and

many of us do use the public transit, walk, bike, etcetera. nevertheless, the amount of parking in this project are not considerate for needs of neighbors who have parking on the street, so we would ask if this is approved, to have additional parking. in summary, i guess neighbor and concerned citizen, i feel like some of the neighbors at least needs were not addressed. i would have like to have been kept more involved in this project. i was very interested and went to the original meeting and gave my name and e-mail. the last thing i heard was something recent about a dinner that they hosted last week which i could not attend because it was very last minute, and today's planning, and i had submitted earlier letters to the commission voicing my concerns. the last thing i would say is one of my real concerns, especially with the sherman school one block away was the -- what i understand to be leaks at this gas station. i don't know whether they're remediated. we had submitted environmental concerns, and i have not heard one way or the other. th

the military approach, the zero tolerance approach, which they did in places like south central, etcetera, but not on skid row with the safer cities initiative. zero , they went to a tolerance, broken windows approach, and were citing people and putting them in handcuffs and having them appear to take care of that citation by simply going to one of the megashelters and entering a 12-step program that would repair you as an individual because of course the reason you're on the street is because you are broken inside. you have an internal deficiency, part of the culture of poverty thesis that started back with moynihan and before really with michael harrington and his book "the other america" and has carried forward with our thinking that what poor people have is a pathology that needs to be cured in some way. and so what you wound up with there was a punitive approach to poverty governance using the police force to step in and issue the -- the citations are there. the numbers don't lie. the number of citations and arrests for all kinds of minor infractions, the courts had to step in and sa

cambodian were bussed out to bayview point, etcetera, etcetera. i can vouch for marlene tran's qualifications as a kindergarten teacher at cec. i think we are ten years behind the curve. if i'm not mistaken, new york and los angeles did this a decade ago, so if you look at the nature of the population in sfusd, trace it back to the history of chinese children being excluded from the public schools and the case of mamie tape versus hurley. trace it back before that to the 1 882 exclusion act. there are many reasons that immigrants have been discriminated against. i thank aaron for mentioning the central american wars in the 80's. these kids and their parents deserve full empowerment, so we have three meetings a month in chinese, spanish, and english, and we had the first parent grant from the san francisco education fund when gladdie thatcher was alive. and those parents and their kids i think have come through the system and are in the higher education system now. so of all places, why would san francisco not allow voting rights for the parents of

i think the past recommendations are unbelievable, fiscal models, etcetera, limitations -- it's an excellent comprehensive document and asks us to continue to work out these critical areas that will affect the quality of services that we could provide as a model not only for san francisco but other parts of the nation. i agree with my colleagues we're fortunate to have exceptional task force members, our director, to follow through on the request. i look forward next week is fine. i'm sure it will be unanimous. there were so many doubts that a number of people have had prior but the presentations tonight really i think blew everybody away. everybody was here at the table and we all listened. we thank you very much for sharing that story with us and continue on with fine work. >> thank you, commissioner, sanchez. so you are not opposed to my summary. i apologize. it is up contrast to commissioner loyce the hearing to when we were speaking about injection drug use and in contrast, today's filling of the auditorium here was in opposition to that. the ability to bring together so many factions a

what kind of conditions, etcetera, do we have? trying to help the situation? >> just to kind of clarify, i think as a commission, you would have to take action to lift the board of appeals condition which set them at, you know, ambient at the property plan, which is not what our code says. our code says they can be eight above ambient at the property plan, so if we went out and did a test, i would want your guidance on whether or not we're having sean, you know, keep it at ambient at the property plane, and based on, you know, whatever work they did inside, their reading could go up. it could go up significantly though, if you were to condition it back to code at eight above ambient at the property plan, so that's why i would really want your guidance. am i answering your question? >> that's good. it seems like the sound issues to me, it seems like they may be within code, but it's still causing serious, serious issues for certain neighbors of yours. that seems to be unarguable. >> which we've seen in other places, though, as well. >> yeah, and it may be that

etcetera. any way, welcome aboard. i hope i didn't bore you or your time with your comments. i think all of us agree, anything we can do to help you. sounds like you're on the right direct. i -- congratulations. we appreciate you're on board -- oh, on your time. i see retired firefighter michael leary out there. lieutenant, is that where you're retired at, mike? you're up in santa rosa. any damage to your family's property from the fires? [ inaudible ] >> great. great. thank you. we won the city championship basketball 8th grade. mike was his side, and i was shorter than him in the 8th grade. all right. thank you. sorry to take your time. thank you very much. >> thank you, commissioner hardeman. always entertaining. commissioner veronese, i had a follow up. >> i did. commissioner hardeman, you always have a way of putting things in perspective. >> well, you know what the audience always says? they like the entertainment i bring. i said, isn't it boring? they say no, you bring things up. >> you definitely bring it to a level of detail we need to appreciate. like, where we've c

yes, busyin smashing windscreens etcetera.rms of breakdowns and some of the conditions on the roads for driving are hazardous at the moment. what is the advice to drivers in these conditions? very windy, you know, gales, a lot of hail, we saw as well actually? yes, i mean, the wind can be quite deceptive because if you're driving along a road and then there is an opening between buildings or indeed, hillsides, and you get a gust of wind that can affect you. so keep both hands on the steering wheel, slow down and also be careful passing higher vehicles, high sided vehicles because they can be hit by the wind. and if you see twigs on the road, on rural roads, do expect when you go around the corner that there could be branches on the road. so it's really slow down, take care, and check on the bridges before you travel because a lot of the bridges today, the severn crossing has been closed and various bridges in scotla nd closed and various bridges in scotland have been closed. so check the travel news before you set out and real

some cases show that banks etcetera i have been attacked the attack of the fifty had a windows smashed. other pretty m much too heay you will talk to you. including those who work for many of these businesses that is in some casases you managege these businesses wl will telll you. that i willl not happypy obvioiously with these. scenes of violence and not time but w we doo understand that way at the anger is coming from. has to be said is become a kind of cyclical in the wake of evolution that all of f these underlyg economic problems. of still a cause for concern is often trinkets of the start of the year by things like a price like some basic goods. of that many tapaps into he's . cycle in the pasta governments have given. a certain concessions on thos. economic issues to try and. make the at the pale lighght as this this o one night. as it was we as a city kind of depends odds as to how things are kind of on the streets in the coming days. t to what the government will be able to once again as it is out what they w wil hahave to offer concessions. all night twenty eighteen budget wh

democrats believe they have to repeal and replace the american el electorate and nancy and schumer etcetera, have to keep their grievance society going and otherwise what are they going to say? the economy's thriving. they're out of ideas. they're out of the ideas business. all they believe in is division, identity politics, the blame game and calling trump a dictator. that's all they have. and if the immigration view they have -- if it means lowering the standard of living for the average working person, citizen, by adding in low-skilled workers, so about it. if for the democrats fit means resisting -- if it means resisting trump when it benefits voters, so be it. i'm telling you, these people are dangerous fanatics and it is they, not president trump, who end up destabilizing destructive forces in the body of politics. he's exposed them like no one has before. and that's "the angle." >>> well, we'll talk to congressman steve king in a moment and he's well known for his, well, hard-line stances on immigration. he believes in what trump campaigned on which is got to build a wall. you have t

writers are being paid by some grant, so that kind of information and how many of them are pull time, etcetera, there's no immediate hurry on that, but i think if we're going to talk about it, we should know what we're talking about. and just throwing out that we'd like to have a grant writer, i think we had know if they're apples to apples with the rest of the city, how that's working, and then, we can have some basis of -- i hear a few meetings ago that there's three grant writers for the police department. i don't know if that's accurate or not, but if that's a fact, then, that's quite interesting, being we don't have any. and i don't want to put you through a whole bunch of work or whoever the chief assigns to do this, but i think we can't really discuss it unless we know as much as possible -- i mean, we can discuss it, but we don't know what we're talking about. so i think if we could know what we're talking about by having the details -- and i think we've been lucky since i've been on the discussion by getting some grants through you and chief guzman, by hitting it just right and very f

my second question is about the permit holder install the bathroom and shower, etcetera after they boughtthe building in 1993? the whole structure at 259 avila was rented in 1992-93 era. there by, the san francisco rent stablization statutes govern, merging the current illegal inlaw unit under the current permit eliminates an affordable unit, a rental stock of san francisco. the basement garage and residency aspects are all considered under rent control. likely, the in-law was established in 1993 when tenant k moved out and before the permit holder moved in. the property owner, terry cook, leased the rental to miss kay and sold the property to current owner. miss cook's son has had his own construction company at that time for 25 -- for 27 years before he became a winery owner. it makes sense that any property owner would enhance their property in every way, especially as it likely suffered some damage from loma prieta in 1989 before putting it up for sale in '93. it doesn't matter when the unit was established, either before the rental or after, because it exists today as an affordable u

you know, what the president wanted as it pertains to trying to craft some legislation on budget, etcetera. now the emphasis will be on immigration. do you believe that the president has been a little bit more clear on what it is he's looking for, giving, members of congress some direction? >> yeah. i think -- i believe the president, by presenting this plan or this outline, that was actually helpful. i would say that the four points that the president outlined on border security, daca, family migration, and the diversity visa lottery, those four points are consistent with what senators graham and durbin outline. now, there are differences in the proposals, but i think at least we have a marker laid down by the president. so now a real negotiation can commence. i believe we need to take care of this d.r.e.a.m.ers/daca issue, tie it did on to border security. there is a path forward on this and we can do it in a bipartisan way. i think what the the president presented was helpful in at least framing the negotiations. >> do you believe there's a path toward citizenship for these d.r.e.a.m.er

facing other barriers, whether child care, transportation, unstable housing, substance abuse or etcetera. when we talk about entitlement hard to divorce that from what is going on in the overall economy for people hard for particularly low-income people, people of and ethnic l disparity as well as hispanic african american community. when we talk about we need to reform isorm welfare, often code for cuts. and what i'd like to note, if to raise the minimum wage just $12 an hour, you would food stamps.ion in you know, three quarters of people turning to programs are working families and so maybe we ead of focusing on how reform programs such that we are taking away benefits from should be talking about policys that create jobs and fair,ake the economy more less of need to turn to programs in the first place. fresno, california, independent. caller: hello. host: good morning, jim, you are on the air. caller: yeah, okay, i'm on the air now? host: you are, we're listening. is the okay, here problem. i think what you are doing is it, you know, way i see c-span is a pacifier, people that, they

my staff who, on you know, works on that, works that program is working well, etcetera. staten island, new york, doug is next for nina olson, hi. c-span, i ank you, wasn't aware of the national taxpayer advocate, so it is a this.ure to actually see we just don't get this from other stations, thank god for you guys. you, mrs. olson, i want to ask three quick questions. number one, i'm disabled and i don't have a computer, will i get be able to call and tax forms from the government? it was very hard the last two of phone calls until i finally got through, number one. two, has anything really changed from last year or will i use d deductions, 1040-a, i'm retired, and have just social bit of and little pension. yeah. these two things, i was get ring, how does one through this if they're not going to be able to get the forms through the mail anymore, have of us don't computers. host: thanks, caller. guest: you raise a critically question. my office did research study this year and we identified are 41 million u.s. taxpayers, based on nationwide sample ofpresentative taxpayer

without modification to code requirement, such as open space, dwelling unit exposure, rear yard, etcetera. for this project, at 793 south vanness avenue, there is no density limit. the base project included 55 dwelling units of approximately 55,138 gross square feet of residential use. therefore, the bonus project is permitted a maximum residential gross square footage of 74,436 square feet. this project proposed consists of 75 dwelling units and approximately 73,683 square feet of residential use. in order to provide the permitted 35% density bonus amount, the project proposes the following concessions for development standards to rear yard where planning code section 134 required off street parking, section 151, and a waiver in height of planning code section 250 and 252. the project provides a dwelling unit mix of 45 one-bedroom and 30 two-bedroom units. they will meet their incollusionary housing affordablity requirement by designating their on-site as affordable. the project would require 14.5% be designated as the base project, which for the base project of 55 dwelling units, would

citations, so as chris went over briefly, this includes sit-lie, this includes sleeping, resting, etcetera. yeah, all -- all of those, yeah. so here, you see that 70% of our respondents were forced to move by police or by city officials. because there was nowhere else to go, the majority remained in public space. most of them simply moved down the block. 22% moved to a different neighborhood. we found that even -- >> president turman: just to clarify. >> yes. >> president turman: is this the police department making the move or is dph making them move and having them enforce this? that might be a better question for you -- >> yeah. the majority here are -- >> president turman: hold on one second. [ inaudible ] >> president turman: yeah, i'm talking to him. hold on one second. >> okay. >> i think what we're just explaining is dph is we're enforcing -- >> president turman: the dph order. >> yes. >> president turman: okay. i'm sorry. so you're saying, sir, in the back. [ inaudible ] >> president turman: so the police officers are carrying out the order, but you don't know who initiated it, bu

any kind of facility requires a different kind of back up and on-site provision of food services, etcetera. could you get into that a little bit? ? yeah. our licensing is for a 23 hour stay, so we can, by license, keep people up to 23 hours and 59 minutes. we do, right now, probably two or three nights a week, have patients that stay over for extended recovery. that might grow a little bit, and what we do, we have a food handling service, and we bring in all the food for those patients, so there's not food kept on-site or bringing rats or anything like that. we go on lockdown at 9:00, and there's a security guard, which was actually a plus for the neighborhood, and obviously, if we do have people that are sleeping over, they are recovering from surgery, so we want it quiet, we want it peaceful for them, certainly not any noise or... >> commissioner moore: have you undertaken any measures for facade maneuvering because we all know those sizes do not do have a very street friendly experience. >> the grocery store had frosted glass. right now, it looks like painted windows. if you have questi

the community may want a little more offering than sausage hot dogs, bratwurst, etcetera. invite a chef to come in and do an in depth menu, while still keeping costs as low as possible. i think that would be a good programming addition to the restaurant. and the last two is taking you up on your offer about sunday through thursday, 10:00 p.m. closures, with friday and saturday at midnight. >> second. >> president hillis: commissioner johnson? >> commissioner johnson: sorry. i actually -- i like a lot of the changes that commissioner fong has made. it looks like there's support for it, but i'll just still say i'm not going to vote yes on this, because if i was willing to vote no on a business that had been here 45 years on bay street, i think i sort of have to be consistent with that here. hopefully, they will have those changes, but a bona fide eating establishment primarily gets its revenue from food, and if you have hog dogs that are $5 and beer that's $8, that's not the case. again, i fall on the side that's not within that carve out that was envisioned for this distric

a very giving person when the hat is passed, but disposing of my corneas, my kidneys, and heart, etceteraly generous, even for me. i simply checked "yes" next to the give box. "yes, indeed," i said, and quickly turned the page. i was then to divide my small holdings, giving everything upon my death or incapacitation to my son, a son who never returns my calls. he'll return this one when it happens-- at least he'll know it's not me. some of my more psychically- inclined friends think we'll always be in touch. i think i won't tell my boy that there's even a doubter's chance that such communication might occur. then came the question of my remains. my ashes, to be exact. i requested cremation. i don't cook and never have, but fortunately there are other people who do. was i to be sprinkled, boxed, buried, or dusted off? i decided to leave this decision to my heirs. i simply couldn't make this judgment call, and was somewhat relieved that i would never have to witness this familial event. most decisions "en famille" have historically broken down into serious squabbles. i won't be there. i smi

codes in our city, and i think we would all make whatever effort we can to make sure that teachers, etcetera, and nonprofits can afford to keep living and working in our neighborhood. i do want to go on the record as supporting the permit parking as the best based attempt in an imperfect world that we're living in. i just want to speak to the traffic testifying in our neighborhood. the red carpet made things worse. it's also the ride sharing in other things. we did write there reiskin about this in august of 2016, and we have been collaborating with his team members and staff since then to see that our calming efforts are addressed. just to say despite that dialogue, we have seen very few concrete things happen in the last 18 months. there is no speed limit sign, which we've asked for as people speed up the hill, and we are committed to vision zero, and we would like to work, we encourage you, with vision zero to work on -- >> thank you. thank you very much miss landry. >>-for our community. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi. my name is lynn. i don't live in bernal heights, but i hav

disasters or security issues or 9/11 where the market was impacted this noise, the twitter noise and etcetera back and forth between consultants, it is irrelevant to the market one thing that i should say that's insight full of this book is that it does give you a sense of the mind set of trump and the style. that style has not hurt the united states on the international landscape in a major way yet. yes, it could. if he maetdde a rash decision, e had advisers that allowed him to do something tragic with north korea and china, that was quick or short sited we could see the market reacting differently in that situation. >> thank you, ben. by the way, not to brag. i have one do you have one yet? >> i don't i the white house is going to come confiscate that and sue you for holding it up. >> have you check the index for your name yet? >> oh my god, i did not think about that >> melissa >> look, look, let me know mark zuckerberg is going above and beyond of his new year's resolution we'll tell you what it is. how thrifty diner is kicking off in the value diner stoecr. we'll tell you who's doing it

he sub contracts a lot quite a lot within the area to help with cables and etcetera, it is a capital intensive business more than one that's got a lot of employees. >> all right, michelle, we'll check in with you a little later on fascinating stuff. >> first responders swarming santa barbara county after a series of devastating mudslides. ot the death toll, destruction when we return "power lunch" will be right back >>> following a series of deadly mudslides, rescue crews are coming santa barbara for the hunt of survivors. live in montecito california for the latest scotty >> reporter: we understand ther are still people outstanding this is a 101 freeway, as difficult it is, this is one of the main highway for california. there are two people in rescue gear they're in the back in if actual scoop and they're going through. we watched them probing the waters they have not been able to drain the water just yet we know there are still eight people that are missing. those rescue crews are going through this area and trying to see if they can find anybody here we do know there was a boy th
