the safety act is by federal partners grant to us because they are the agency granting to you the opportunity to have reduced liability. so, although in fact we think that in many cases these federal standards are important for protective design measures with certification and designation, we are working with their bible. can i guarantee you a vital part of my anatomy that they can grant this? no one in this room or from the federal level can. the investments that you are making are extraordinarily what other clients have made. we are comfortable at this particular time should you grant the application for the implementation of these is that you have an extraordinarily good opportunity to receive those designations. more than that, i can't tell you. okay? >> so, with regard to the action that we are taking today, which i'm ready to support, i noticed that the, i don't believe the staff report or resolution had any mention of the cost of the additional design services that we are directing the design team to undertake. so does that mean that whatever additional cost that within existing author

"the voice" had their blind auditions tonight. this is where they sit with their backs to the singers and turn around if they like what they hear. it's a back handed complement. i like your voice even though you are hideous. >>> for the past five seasons the winner of "american idol" has been an instantly forgettable white male. but paul jol request the last remaining caucasian man has been eliminated. between this and mitt romney it has been a rough six months for white guys. but we still have the bachelorette. >>> one of my writers brought this in today. this flier was posted all over his neighborhood. one of his neighb

historical that money has been used to match the safe to school grants. now we're going to still work on the grants we're going to match the grants on another sources so that freeze up the sources to use it on traffic combing around schools but the kinds of things we're interested in are should we take that 1 hundred and 50 thousand every year and spread it out over the city. should we hold it on two years and have a larger pot or are we going to might be do half the city one year and try to have that money go further to invest in more significant projects around the schools particularly the ones near or materials there's a bicycle category, there's a maintenance category and 0 o all those places are needed to be funded around schools. i think we very specific information we could share about the historic improvements at the tenderloin school if you're interested in that by the way, illustration. it's something that maybe the committee is interested in? >> just looking at some experience in my district. we have many schools, of course, just like balboa hi

do you use grants, tax assessments, et cetera? anybody? >> i think i can take that. >> okay, ready. >> for anyone who didn't attend my session, i do a juvenile program where i take kids who have been convicted of graffiti crimes to do community service on saturdays. the way i do this is get a public grant from department of public works where we take kids out to graffiti hot spots, we paint over graffiti and they get a reduced fine and credit for probation officers. this is done through a public grant. it's a very effective program. we have been able to turn a lot of kids around, restore justice. we get a lot of positive feedback from the community, a lot of other officers are happy to get the overtime. and as an officer, you're really able to facilitate the program well because you are able to put on a lot of different hats, communicate with probation, you communicate with traffic court judges, with community referral center, and with station personnel. so, you really act as a good communicator and facilitator in the program from a law en

summer months and also you are pointing out that the subject property does have no variances granted for us and so they do have a complying rear yard and the appellant also has one and so separating the two properties would be the rear yards, and the co-complying rear yards of the properties and so it is as fairly good distance between the building walls of the two buildings. and there is i believe, two complying rear yards. >> okay. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> mr. duffy? nothing. >> is there any public comment? please step forward. >> president hwang how many minutes? >> good evening, my name is mark and i am a neighbor at 15 san lorenzo. i am here to comment on the project and basically say that i am against what they are proposing to do here and this roof line seems to be out of hand with the rest of the roof lines in the road. as far as the code compliant as far as i am concerned there is not much of a rear yard it is somewhere in the neighborhood of ten feet and i know that it is an unconforming lot. but we have lived there for many, many years and i used to run in that lot as a kid
