hayes valley neighborhood association. -- involved with the hayes valley neighborhood association. i am strongly supporting eric mar's amendment and the clarification that it provides. we thank him tremendously for making this clarification. our history from statements by supervisors gonzales and -- and others that were instrumental. this should never have come up. at this point, it is not to go backwards. we have that clarification in front of you and we strongly support it. for the same reason i reject removing sales and services under retail, that should remain in it at this point. it needs considerably more vetting before anything is taken out. the wiener alternative is not acceptable. i think supervisors mar and olague infor bringing this. thank you. -- thank supervisors mar and olague for bringing this. >> i am here to speak in favor of the legislation. financial institutions can be an amended t -- an amenity but when they began to dominate it causes problems. one is the loss of character. a lot of the formula retail uses in banks is one of them. they bring with them some of

of san francisco is indeed what the hayes valley merchants described and what is evident in anybody who lives with open eyes in san francisco neighborhoods. vice president wu: thank you. commissioner miguel? commissioner miguel: yes. there was a comment regarding the starbucks on the waterfront and i was totally dismayed. i think it's at pier three, when i saw it appear there. i think it's an absolute disaster for the city in such a prominent place. it would be like putting one at the airport, which we don't do, either. along with commissioner moore and others, i've been pushing the concept that financial institutions are formula retail for at least the last couple of years. i disagree totally with the department's interpretation and that's one of the reasons i would not go along with the elimination of other sales and services because they have given me, anyway, given the commission, no justification for that at this point. you may be willing to do so at this time but the public doesn't know it and they haven't had a chance to discuss it and i would not consider it at this point. what'

that's hayes who's a big man. sharp's coming in from one side and hayes is the one that gets him. actually went in to hayes. >> right between the numbers. >> moments before this down at the other end, shane doan had a chance at a similar hit on i believe johnny oduya and you could tell doan changed his path or changed how hard -- see rod value is injured and could be bleeding. this could be five minutes here. >> could be for boarding. rozsival who was in a very susceptible position, vulnerable position. >> he knows it. >> he's done for the night. >> the referee just motioned to jimmy hayes. >> i'm not surprised about this either. >> once they see the replay of it. the impact of it, too. >> joel quinnville's going to be angry about it naturally. a tense situation facing elimination. rozsival with a towel to his face. >> we can see it on the one handle there. they're coming out to clean you want the blood off the ice wifb talking about this where players hit in to the end boards when they're facing the glass. trying to make a play. you just have to let up or pay the price with the p

so and while hayes valley has done a beautiful job with no formula retail, there are many other streets like chestnut and fillmore and 24th street and union that have a blend of banks, formula retail and neighborhood services and they seem to be doing just well so i'm not sure that the entire success in hayes valley is -- can be attributed to the fact that there isn't any formula retail and it's also a very small area, too. i think each neighborhood has to decide for themselves. and the other thing that's a little disturbing is if we have a medical marijuana dispensary, the level of approval is a d.r., which is a lower level of approval than would be the case for a bank or financial institution, which somehow the priorities are wrong there as far as i'm concerned. i mean, i would suggest that we make this a d.r. you still get process. it's -- neighborhood is noticed that there is a financial institution going in and it's brought to the planning commission and what happens is, you know, then they would have to get four votes of this commission to block them rather than four votes because

i moved into the neighborhood in 1990 when hayes valley was lumped under the western addition and was at that time pretty much one of the worst neighborhoods in the whole entire city. we in the small business community have taken hayes valley from the worst to the best ever heard in the city and we have done that because the neighborhood is unique, small businesses, sold proprietorships for the most part. -- sole proprietorships for the most part. that is what the city should be about. the area shoppers come to our neighborhood because they're not confronted with starbucks and banks on every corner. it is not necessary. global travelers come to our neighborhood because they are shopping in a very unique and undeniably vibrant neighborhood, only small business and it is important maintain that. thank you so much. commissioner wu: thank you. laurence? and tess wellborn and catherine petrin. >> i am the manager of the mattress co. and i am on the board of the hayes valley labour association. -- never association -- neighborhood association. we do urge you to approve this, we echo what ru

you are on tie -- item 14, 2011.1151d at 640 hayes street. i heard that there's a request for a continuance of this item to a different date. >> first or second meeting in may. >> i'm looking at the letter now, this is the first i'm looking at it. they're asking for a hearing in may instead of today's hearing. this is from the requester, i'm sure you all are aware generally, on a deform r. case, because there are two sides, generally we ask that the project sponsor be allowed to weigh in. i have not, to the best of my knowledge, heard from the project sponsor on whether or not they agree with the -- with the continuance. it's my understanding the staff is prepared to go forward with this case if you -- >> can we hear the project sponsor on the issue of the continuance. >> yes, you can hear both parties or anyone else on the issue of the continuance. >> hi, good evening, commissioners. my name is valley lee, one of the project sponsors. we would like to dispute the continuance. this project's gone on too long, we've expended so much time and e

i think the gentleman from hayes valley, the true sake store nailed it which is we simply don't want san francisco to become like every other place. i think this planning commission does its best to do that. i think this is an obvious step moving forward. if you have seen a national billboard campaign, i would call it, for j.p. morganchase throughout the city after buying washington mutual after the financial meltdown. there are chase banks throughout the city. how many people actually go into the chase banks? we don't know. but what they do have is cookie cutter looks, cookie cutter signage that is loud, it's proud and it says corporate america and that's something we don't need in san francisco and i think the conditional use is a very reasonable and rational approach to formula retail. thank you. vice president wu: thank you. >> good afternoon, commissioners, gus hernandez, alamo square neighborhood association. i just wanted to add my support for adding financial services to formula retail regulations. i also wanted you to be very careful about removing sales and service retail f

at 5:30 in the morning, officer hayes was still actively looking for the car. at the intersection she saw the car that matched the broadcast description. it to occur several blocks to catch up to the car. she was able to confirm the license plate and suspect's description. she advised our communications center of her findings and initiated the traffic stop using her license siren. the suspect driver failed to yield. a pursuit and sid. the officer was joined by another unit. she pursued the suspect vehicle as it began driving through red lights at a high rate of speed. the suspect vehicle driver continued through four police districts with a blatant disregard for the law. the suspect driver lost control of the car in the parking lot of the recreation center. the other suspect in the car climbed into the rear seat of a suspect vehicle. officer hayes noticed this as the car was coming to an abrupt stop after the collision. she noticed a muzzle flash. she was slowing per vehicle and broadcasting the movements. she managed to transition her gun to her weaker hand an

legislation, and if they do move financial institutions into the definition of formula retail and hayes valley, north beach and i believe china town do not allow formula retail, would that mean that new branches could not be built in those neighborhoods? >> you're correct although i think north beach has a -- half of it you can and half of it you can't. i'm sorry, they do prohibit formula retail outright but currently only half of the district doesn't allow banks and the other half does so this would effectively make new formula retail banks completely prohibited in north beach and hayes valley but financial services are already prohibited in the china town district that would be impacted by this so it doesn't really change anything there. commissioner antonini: right. it would change it for hayes valley and half of north beach and any other neighborhoods that might have bans, i don't believe there are -- west portal, as we mentioned, with additional financial services although i believe the charles schwab which incidental does have branches throughout the city a few years ago was able

i also think -- the decision to keep hayes valley together corrects the mistake made ten years ago by splitting that in half. thank you. vice-chair lam: thank you, next speaker. >> i live on gamber street. we ware in that bit of district 9 going up toward mclaren park but district 9 does not include mcclaren. to have a voice, a supervisor to go to with concerns about the park, i feel it is important we be in a district that includes the park. and right now, that is district 10. i think it is a primary -- of prairie importance the portal be together as one neighborhood. and then secondly, i really want to be in a district that includes mcclaren park. a lot of us in the neighborhood and the neighborhood surrounding the park are working on try to take care of the park an advocate for the park and protect the park. thank you. >> i live on gambier street. this is the third time i have appeared before you. i was at the two previous meetings. i really have a couple of simple messages. one is the portola is a unified neighborhood. we want it kept together. for me i consider myself part of the

police say hayes and a 15-year- old boy approached a 19-year- old white man from behind on april 17th. they pushed him up against a tree and hit him in the head and shoulders befores hayes reached inside the man's pockets. police caught the two were a few few blocks away. hayes told police he was angry about the martin shooting and attacked the victim because of his race. the 15-year-old was also charged. if you're having trouble getting ravinia tickets today; you're not alone. tickets went on sale at five ths morning; but many customers are having problems getting through on the website. wgn's randi belisomo is live at ravinia- in highland park with details randi? ravinia officials say that if you don't already have tickets to see santana buy the album tickets to see james taylor are sold out as well the music demand hair has never been higher. more than 100 shows are offered this morning on line the wait time on line is about 15 minutes earlier today was much longer if you are trying for tickets please stick with it provided you see an orange box on the screen do not leave the page

jack hayes seemed to be completely forgotten. just south of austin there is a county named hays county named after john and inside hays county there is a high school, hays high school in a state that absolutely treasures rangers. when you suppose in this state the mascot of the haze high school team would be the rangers. they are the rebels. and as i said, i have no problem with rebels because jack hayes left texas in 1849 to become the first sheriff of san francisco and never went south against anybody. he is not a rebel. he is a ranger. no one in hays county knows what this is. people in san antonio where he invented the six shooter know who the guy is. this was going on. here was the great opportunity i saw as a writer with this book because i am a relatively smart guy. i was even living in texas and that didn't know who these guys were. you ever heard of a geronimo? everyone has heard of geronimo? ever heard of custer? mackenzie, the greatest indian fighter of the frontier? ever heard of john coffee haze? should be a househol

chris hayes, up with chris hayes you can watch every saturday and sunday.e to have knew always a pleasure. >> is this a situation we have two worlds that don't overlap, having the iraq war spokesman speaking on your behalf doesn't seem like a bad thing to republicans? >> i have pondered this for a long time. i genuinely don't understand this. you watch the republican primary debates and turn to foreign policy. there has to be some space between ron paul and dick cheney and no one is occupying it. either an incredibly isolationist agenda of ron paul not majority position of american politics or the most bellicose dick cheney neoconservative line that seems to have learned nothing from the lessons of iraq. the space between those are occupied by the president of the united states. they have a strategy problem they need to distinguish themselves from the sitting president. part of the way they've done this is gotten the old band back together. those are the people running foreign policy. if i want to know what foreign policy will look like, don't listen to mit

other commercial districts are also relatively close, like the lower hayes valley and lower fill more. we want to promote the use of major arterials that can support the frequency and size of the tour buses, while drawing visitors to our commercial districts. we are a transit-first city and we should also be supporting the muni bus system which surrounds our park. we should be encouraging visitors to use our public transit to reach destinations like alamo square. the real economic benefit from tourism comes from interaction between visitors and local businesses and neighborhoods. the tour bus companies are instead usurping our residential streets to meet the ends of our business model. thank you. >> thank you. i'd like to open it up for public comment at this time. dean, followed by mali, jesus perez. >> and we'd like to -- let's limit the testimony to two minutes per person. there's a buzzer that goes off with 30 seconds to go. please try to keep comments brief, if you can, folks. >> mr. chairman, this is for all three items, both on the two pieces of legislation i'm sponsoring as we

if you -- as the hayes valley association has said, as the lower haight has said, this makes sense. it unifies the neighborhood. it can put the upper block in the haight. that would leave this half out. thank you. >> evening. i am the president of the diamond heights community association. i want to thank you for your process and let you know that our association has been following your work since the beginning. we were very happy that david who came to our association meeting in october and explain the process. in december we submitted a letter asking to be a community of interest. and that is to reinstate today why i am here. we really hope he will keep diamond heights -- you will keep diamond heights in district 8. someone thinks that diamond heights blvd. would be a great western boundary. if that would happen, that would cut our diamond heights community down the middle and we would have to have two supervisors and it would disrupt the diamond heights community association efforts that we have held together since the early 1960's. diamond heights was planned by the redevelopmen

joining me now is chris hayes host of "up with chris hayes" and melissa harris perry.ç the bishop's opinion doesn't matter now? >> you know, their politics do not track along the ideological politics as the rest of us. >> right. >> so the right loves to celebrate all social issues, opposition of gay marriage, opposition of women's right to choose. but the previous pope was hosting a spokesperson for suddam hussein on the eve of the iraq war urging there not to be a war. the catholic institution has been very progressive on issues of war and peace and poverty. the republicans just looked the other way for that. in some ways that cuts both ways, too. democrats like to champion the catholic bishops when they are agreeing with them on something like food stamps but not on social issues. >> yeah, but melissa, the moral criteria, the fact about food stamps, let's take that. nearly 75% of the participants are families with children. there is a clear dimension to this legislative and policy talk and i think that's what the bishops are in this case right fully pointing out. >>

"up with chris hayes." the phrase of the day is "game on." they haven't gone face to face exactly, but they went back to back. the president and romney giving speeches from the same microphone two days in a row. let's start with a clip from how the president got this started. he gave the first speech. let's listen to him on medicare. >> but here's the solution proposed by the republicans in washington. and embraced by most of their candidates for president. instead of being enrolled in medicare when they turn 65, seniors who retire a decade from now would get a voucher. if health care costs rise faster than the amount of the voucher as, by the way, they've been doing for decades, that's too bad. seniors, bear the risk. if the voucher isn't enough to buy a private plan with the specific doctors and care that you need, that's too bad. it's a bad idea, and it will ultimately end medicare as we know it. >> all right. hold it. let's give mitt romney a chance to respond. 24 hours later, he steps up to the microph

commissioner dwight: in hayes valley are there banks existing? >> there are -- my belief is there are bank branches that are existing. this legislation is forward-looking, it wouldn't require anybody to go through another conditional use process. commissioner dwight: they would have to go through a conditional use and wouldn't preclude them? >> correct. vice president o'brien: for those areas that don't have an outright ban. >> right. vice president o'brien: in other commissioners' questions, comments before i go to public comment? all right. we'll open it up to the floor. go ahead. >> at this time the commission is taking public comment on this item. members of the public may speak for up to three minutes. if you could please state your name clearly and speakers are encouraged but not required to fill out a speaker card. >> hello, commissioners. good evening. my name is chris wright, i'm the executive director on the committee on jobs, for full disclosure, we do have members that are banks, some of the banks have been here for many years and som

hayes and tilton marking the end of reconstruction. when henry and clover adams returned to washington, to live in 1877, they took up a several month residency at the establishment of their friend james. even after they moved in to their home across 16th street from here, they continued to patronize the hotel along with their friends john and clarence where their social group had become known as five of hearts. haye, having known james, called upon james to assist in personal needs he had throughout his time in the city. the hotel had become so prominent in the social circle of the elite in d.c. that in the early part of 1878, the spanish minister hosted the spanish ball at the hotel, which was declared one of the most elegant events ever held in washington. in a newspaper account, the scene was described in the following manner -- while approaching wormley's evening, an awning was arranged forming a cover from the street to the front door. within the hotel brilliant lights and the sound of delicious music greeted the guests. spacious
