this would be the second attempt to set up an ifd. first one was the rincon hill one set up a few years ago. we have to go forward with the process through the board of supervisors. we have to go forward on the ifd process. it is still being put together for this project. our term sheet was the best guess on what might result from the process based on rincon hill and state law. we will see how the process comes through the board and what percentages are available to the port to spend on park projects. >> that is my understanding. under the best of circumstances, the highest percentage that could possibly go back into the area of the project would be 65%. development has a higher percentage. that is all it could possibly be. my second question is in regards to the map. there were some questions brought up. the map we are looking at points out the zoning for 275 feet. that surrounds the park and includes the condominium. is this correct or incorrect? what is bill could be less in height? is that the situation? >> the golden gateway rede

when you request the ifd, is there some projection that you have to show of what you think the incremental tax will do to support the bond issue? >> that is correct. >> you have to show their real sufficient revenue coming in to repay? >> for each product area that will at -- for each project area, that will identify at minimum the tax increment expected and the bonding capacity therein, and the sources of the project. at any particular ratio required? >> particular ratio? >> for debt repayment. and i think it changes depending on the likely projections of the market. we have to put together a credible plan. >> in other words there is no minimal requirement is what i am asking? >> it depends on the debt vehicle that we use what to read it -- what the minimum requirements will be, and we're still exploring that. >> you intend to come back with an action item fairly soon, 2012? >> we will come back. this is just a notice. we will come back for the enabling master device, and likely product areas associated with projects that are currently heading towards approvals, but the america's cup that

it is unclear if they were or ifd to do so w there were trapped inside. in august 2000, a nuclear- powered subs assigned to the bottom of the sea after a tornado fuel leak triggered another massive explosion. luckily, it appears this fire was extinguished without loss of life. russian officials are saying that the nuclear missiles were not on board. >> still to come, more reliable measures in this afternoon's " medical alert." and approved prostate test for men. at a fallen soldier's personal mementos in an unlikely place. >> today and other weather disturbances on the way. the insta-weather-plus forecast, as we go into the new year's weekend, coming up. partly >> in this afternoon's "medical alert," miner lifestyle changes can significantly reduce your risk of early death. researchers examined 78 years in more than 17,000 adults, including exercise -- 78 years in more than 17,000 adults, including exercise, smoking, plus in tainted the risk of death drop 14% for those who made it an improvement in at least one category. experts are blaming the obesity ep

we know that redevelopment is phasing out, and i suppose a model called the ifd is going to be used. i would like to know how moneys are going to come to treasure island to address whatever projects are going to happen over there? i also stated that i think that the san francisco county transportation authority has a lot to do within the projects were linked to the projects that it already has. i know this is a small amount of money compared to the millions that san francisco county transportation authority doles out, some $100,000, but i would like to know why some other independent entity could not do it. why does it have to be the san francisco county transportation authority? thank you very much. supervisor mirkarimi: thank you, sir. any other public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. i believe we have same house. take this without objection. >> item 7, increase the amount of the legal services contract with nossaman llp by $330,000 to a total amount not to exceed $960,000 to provide general legal counsel services and authorize the executive director to modify contra

the opportunities that the even authority has in terms of long-term development rights in terms of ifd proceeds that accrue, and this represents what they can access to repay themselves. so they are taking a significant amount of risk, and that this will both mean that they will limit their costs on the front end and do what is necessary and appropriate, and that they will right size that project, and that they will be specifically incentivized to create wonderful projects on the waterfront, which is what we are looking for. seawall lot 330 is also part of this. i guess i'm mainly covered this already. this is a graphic representation of how this process would work. specifically, one thing i want to emphasize -- this is in order of priority. the port has a good deal of certainty toon the cost -- to know based on the cost what will happen to access and what have you. i would like to specifically mention that the last one i described in detail, some sort of residual per dissipation, happens at the end of that after other remedies are exhausted. specifically, pierre -- pier 29 happens onl

in an addition, we will have tax increment financing through the establishment of an ifd district for the port, which we believe will generate $40 million in additional funds for port projects. contrary to some of the claims, not one penny of that is going to us. it is all going to the port, for the city to do with it with the jews. the port will have ongoing participation in the sales of those transfer fees that i mentioned. we're talking about $100 million. will money for the port. probably a precedent that can be used for future port projects which will help it out of its financial mess. public space, we showed you there. we will rent that back from the port for $120,000 a year. you are currently getting $60,000 a year. the homeowners association will rins that back. the homeowners association will maintain it. the port will be a member of the homeowners association, so they can control their part. in the port will get participation from the cafe and pacific park, which goes back to state lands. 29,000 feet of public open spaces versus a 27,000 foot parking lot. a new community res

you know, in television, we have these things called ifds. it's a wire connected to our ear.e have our producers that give me time cues. i always want my producer to know that i'm listening to them so i had to say her name, t.j. >> of course. he does that all the time, very good at it. they know you're listening and you still go over time. i love it. i love it, reynolds. >> i'm going to go cry for a little while. >> don't cry yet. i want you to see this. a christmas parade. check this one out. >> okay. >> does it look normal to you on first glance and to everybody looking? christmas parade, these are the folks in oregon. one particular neighborhood postponed what they do, though, they have their own oount unique parade. if you can't tell, these are golf carts and lawn mowers all decked out. creative or -- >> i would say it's creatively crazy. i say it's disturbingly beautiful. it is beautiful to see, but then when you realize they're on lawn mowers -- you know, i think the best way to look at it is they're celebrating the season and doing it the best way they know how. it's n

as alec baldwin tells us he's on his ifd pad playing this addictive game called words with friends. >dictive. >> it's a lot like scrabble. you play with other people online. he's playing on the ipad, the plane is not moving, still at the gate about to leave. and he says the flight attendant walked over and over and over again and said please shut off your device. he said i will when the plane leaves. they got into a bit of an argument about it. alec baldwin claims the flight attendant was making a scene trying to embarrass him. there are some reports he kind of kicked the bathroom door and the pilot came out it was so loud and that's when he was kicked off the plane. his pr people deny some of those accounts. they say he was trying to complain about the flight attendant. meanwhile, this entire time, just to show you the power of social media, alec baldwin is on the plane tweet being it. we have a few of those tweets to show you. >> these are great. >> flight attendant on american reamed me out for playing words with friends while we sat at the gate not moving. this is the best part. #
