then we got the slow—moving weather front bring in some intense bursts of rain and some of the hillyes, perhaps across cumbria, some of these areas could see localised flooding issues. eastern areas not seen much in the way of rain, we could see some sunny spells breaking free. if that happens, we could see temperatures up to 21 celsius. very mild indeed, that mild weather stays with us for the first half of the week before temperatures gradually get closer to normal towards the end of the week. this is bbc news. i'm rich preston. our top stories: a man suspected of killing the british member of parliament, david amess, has been named as ali harbi ali. it's understood he'd previously been referred to a counter—extremism programme. all the prime minister and leader of the opposition paid their respects at the scene of the attack — as a review begins into the threats faced by politicians. we live in an open society, democracy. we live in an open society, democracy-— we live in an open society, democra .~ ., , democracy. we cannot be cowered b an democracy. we cannot be cowered by any i

susan hillis is the lead author of the study. she spoke with a 16-year-old girl who lost her father. >> she has given me permission to share this for her with anyone. this is what she said. people with covid in our country , most of them recover. however, i will never recover. i will not have my daddy with me. he will not walk me down the aisle. he will never be with me. kumasi: to get a better -- jovina: she says an average of o one kid in every public school has lost a parent or caretaker. while it did not cover why the racialist to the lack of access to health care among many other factors. reggie: a federal judge has ruled in favor of the biden ministration blocking more enforcement. in the 113 page ruling, the judge wrote this court will not sanction one more day of this offensive deprivation of an important rite. texas has already appeared the rule -- appealed the ruling. the lock could end up before the supreme court again. the conservative just c refused to rule on the constitutionality. judge pittman appeared to take a s

it's the hilly location. certainly. the winds are dying down there. before without the wind without that. wind advisory. the red flag warning has lost some of its teeth, which is good still worth being extremely cautious. as you look at the forecast model you'll see by tomorrow. the winds right. the reds are what you're worried about, and the orange around back until tomorrow morning. kind of just goes away, so it's a very different forecast. for tomorrow, and then it was today. very different. and so when i showed that marley yesterday we had lots of red all over the parts of the bay area. not not the case tomorrow there's no fog along the coast. it's pretty clear. temperatures tonight are going to get cold. it's gonna get down into the mid thirties and santa rosa, which is very, we haven't seen temperatures that cool in a while. so up in the north bay forest bill gern ville. i think frost is a real possibility of you. imagine that santa rosa 43. that's the coolest spot on the map. 43 in livermore, though. that's pretty cold, too. right so, uh, 44. m

so uh, in the burn zones, mudslides possible, especially up in the hilly or locations, so think abouty for the rest of us. we've got scattered showers out there right now they're going to continue. it's going to be a day tomorrow. a lot like today we start off with a few sprinkles. a few scattered showers, so that morning commute is just a little bit damp. and then by, you know, 10 11 o'clock, it's probably partly cloudy. partly sunny. so really, the bulk of tomorrow is going to look like it looked this afternoon. you know it was today. most of the day they just clouds sprinkle here sprinkle there and not not cold at all temperatures in the sixties. and even some of those seventies because a lot of this moisture is sub tropical in origin, and that's the reason when you get warm air. warm air holds a lot of water. so when you're doing whether systems with rain and you're in the upper sixties as a warm air mass, and it's holding a lot of water. so right now we've got a few scattered showers in the bay area just widely scattered at this point on the peninsula, but we've seen an inch and

out about two tons, seven inch for us around here, the hillier locations you're graphically favored hilly locations will do best with perhaps an inch and a quarter again. so a couple of nice little weather systems with a nice little break, and then you get a little break until you get into sunday and this one has nothing but game. this is the real deal, 1.5. inches in a place like san francisco five inches in the santa cruz mountains, marin county watershed or further south down the big sure they could see six or seven inches in just a 24 hour period from one storm, and that's the big one with winds gusting to 50 miles an hour. so three storms. they're all we got nice little breaks between them, so we're in good shape. they're not expecting flooding issues, the burn scars or something you want to think about always just because it can be an issue, but we're going to get a little breaks in between. but sunday's the main event here's tonight you can see it right here coming onshore, little more game than what we had the other night, right? we just got 807 inch of 10th of an inch at most in

think we can hopefully continue to watch the legislation and look forward to hearing from director hillis in the future if this process is creating significant burdens and bringing housing to the market, we may need to look at how can the process whether it's on the implementation side be sped up or how can these be prioritized to come to the commission more quickly so that housing especially if it is at a point to get shovels in the ground or leasing or selling or what have you, that we're not the bottleneck on that housing gets to the market. and the last question i have, i think just to be clear is something that's come up a bit in public comment but i don't think this legislation addresses which is the cost of being a member of an h.o.a. in the ownership buildings that the costs of the dues or a special assessment, those are part of bet bg an own ore and all owners in a below market rate or market rate unit are obligated to pay those assessments, correct, or those dues, whatever they may be. >> i am going to turn it over to mocd for this question. awe thank you. >> but yes, we did not

it seems like director hillis has been hesitant to this session when it worked so beautifully.r how the rules work. you understood it and unanimously approved the legislation. there was no confusion. it got cleared up. things that have been festering for years and years with tenants not being able to have their housing services. i think you should reconsider having more staff training on rent board issues and that kate conner is not a substitute. she could use the training too. thank you. >> good afternoon. san francisco land use coalition. i would like to continue on the appeal of texas street at the board of supervisors. the board revoked your a approval placing two rent controlled units with one unit which is less desirable. clearly, local and state laws applicable to this project. commissioners are supposed to do their own research and review the packet before making their own decisions. this time texas street didn't even make their own own requires or rent control requirements or the deed restriction requirement. the default shall be to restricting the deed to low income t

i believe that director hillis is correct. this is not a different motion than what was noticed. it is a motion to approve as refined in the discussion. >> i wanted to add, too, about the group housing issue as you know, 450 ofarrah was at the board and this was a topic of discussion. we anticipate working with and i already started talking and to discuss potential legislation to discuss you already had in group housing. >> commissioner diamond, would you be interested as having the plans come back as informational item? we see the sketch as beautiful as it is, it is limited. >> yes, the superior is not going to change much, and having the between yors come because and with a memo to the commission to previously clarify that. >> thank. commission president koppel is that okay with you. >> on that motion to approve and with 19 units with further refinement made to the plans between the architect and the staff. and the condition that a memo be provided to the planning commission with the further refined plan. on that motion, [roll call vote] >> that pass 4-2. >> does that mean is t

director hillis had a slight advantage as hewrote an electric bike while i have my normal but .ch our destination by using the 44th avenue slope street. the mayor intends to introduce the ordinance next tuesday the purpose of cars to cause is to encourage housing and development on personal that are currently being used for auto with the goal of using the city's housing shortage while addressing the impacts of automobiles on climate change, pedestrian safety and the ability. the first would be to remove the ce requirement to convert an automobile service station to existing use and the second would be to decontrol or density on lots with uses. another introduces the signs of automotive use for the planning code as well as accessory parking lot or garage. properties with existing housing would not be as eligible for the program. as always this itemwill be coming to you for your review and recommendation and i'm available for questions . >>thank you. if there are no questions , to mister starr the voting administrator will move. >> the court of appeals did not meet this week. >> t

office spaces to residential, i believe that would -- and perhaps it is more a question to director hillisbelieve that would take a legislation in order to convert office spaces to residential, will it not? or -- >> if -- [indiscernible] i wanted to answer the question. there is nothing currently that would require any new legislation for conversion of office or retail in the c-3-r. the difficulty is because of the density and the way the buildings are built out, many of them, they should have -- walls, so you're largely dealing with glazing on one or two frontages, so when we saw -- this is the also the planner at the i. magnum building. >> i see. so in terms of those kind of, let's say, proposal for conversion to residential, i mean, personally, i would like to see a more thorough plan for that, how it's going to look like. but it looks like for this building it's viable to convert this to an office space. again, we're also facing this dilemma of the office use and the vacancy of office spaces at the same time. so, i know it's going to be a topic that is going to be discussed at later pa

hopeful attitude that we can do better that the whole department shows in this commission and director hillis and jonas, you all continue to be optimists that we can do better and in san francisco mostly we do. we are really at the forefront of so many issues that we in turn affect other places and that you concern and care for not only the city but the world has beena really wonderful thing to be a part of . and for 32 years i have loved working with the departmentand commission and you kept it interesting and challenging an never dull . thank you for caring so much , for including me in what you do and solving your plans, your problems and all of the problems that we face as a commission on a weekly basis and at the planning department on a weekly basis. it's been an incredible two years and it has been so satisfying to be able to work with all of you and ijust send up and in august appreciation for having been part of it . so thank you. >> president: commissioner mar. i think you aremuted . >> city attorney stacy, she shows who she really is. it is the smile on her face but also sometimes

hillis in may, giving an analysis of why the units that were previously approved were not feasible. supervisor haney, you should have it in your packet, and i go through a details analysis of the financing. each unit would cost roughly $1.2 million to build. richard went into this to some extent, and in order to secure the financing, the market rate would have to be almost $8,000 a month and only be affordable to those earning 314,000. a lot depends on the size, richard, and my math was a little bit different, but you can see how we arrived in the letter. it's important to note that the previous developer, really, one of the best wealth luxury developers, failed to obtain the financing. our new plan will dramatically reduce the average income that will be required to access the market rate units. it's extremely unfortunate to me that the local community groups are fighting for the gentrification of the tenderloin. thank you. >> clerk: thank you for your comments. all right. operations, let's hear from our next caller, please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. corey smith on behalf of
