exudes all impacts on the private facilities only shadow impacts on public parks. so what that mean even though there's severe impacts on the skilled nursing facility which according to medical raven will have a 1ku7b8 adverse effect those are included from consideration. another example is the line impacts at the skilled nursing facility there's a private third floor open space terrace he that's those the only open space valued to the skilled nursing facilities that has balance problems this is the only open space the definition of wind impacts is used in the eir excludes ail private only public situations so this is another impact that i think really is a significant in the case of the skilled nursing facility but it is included from the draft of the eir. there are a number of other examples similar to this like the air quality and construction noise and pedestrian safety i'm not permitted by the time to go into the details i want to thank you for a considering all our comments >> thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, commissioners. my name is kathy i'm a r

there's no consideration for issues and impacts on vulnerable populations and those impacts were difficult to verbalize before and impossible to verbalize now their unintended consequences which can't be analyzed anywhere that's maintaining the access to light and the heightened impact of wind including the pedestrian safety and run of the most addressed and repeated considerations here today. so the rules have changes and provisions under the sb have been revised and i will not repeat and support the concerns that were made by expand a little bit on the oh, my gosh overarching social as well as aesthetic we're looking to our leaders to make decisions and consider how to reis shape this project >> the defendant eir follows a new line of thinking and didn't look at the aesthetics on the environment s-4 and s-42 but the eir and the d eir alongside this is in conflict with the general plan and points to the fact that the decision makers can consider the effects when deciding to approve the project. i believe that the comments i'll be making should be added and forwarded to the board of superv

and two public plazas will be impacted. i recall sitting at the hearing in which i believe it was a building obeying being discussed it may impact two or three percent and then the same hearing chinatown a 52 very low percentage but we have 4 public parks and two different plazas this is totally inadequate the high-rise belongs in a commercial district or south of market not on the cathedral hill this is inaccurate and inadequate >> thank you. >> am i able to show some pictures. okay my name is patricia i live? vicinity and cr=certainly walk through p - there a lot. is this how i do this >> face up. >> this is the neighborhood this is the project site where my pen is the cross-examinations i've pit down is the current gridlock when you take all the projects that are going on in our neighborhood and actually look at them as a neighborhood rather than projects we project by project. and i had brought this up before the response was it was vague i brought it with cross-examination and very soon i'll have more 3450er8 from all

the first one on page 24 impacts pp 1 looks at is there an impact to historical resource and the determination and what they are saying about how you commemorate an event and this is something that is very important to us and looks at ways to do that and the impact is less significant with the mitigation. that's a different determination. i'm not sure if again that rises to a level of accepting the appeal. it's something that i noted in my reading. the second is again on talking about the mitigation and i'm focused on the p.m.d is what stands. so one of the things and the number of mitigation that were proposed by the common wealth club to memo rate the events that happened m 1934. but when i think about a building, i think about it's a structure that will potentially out live the common wealth club being the owner tenant. i look at which the mitigation at the time as they decide to move to a larger space or somewhere else. to me what stood out. i'm not sure this is something that is reflected in the p.m.d and not sure that it rises to the level of the appeal or p.m.d but i would put out there

but also impacting not just 2014 but also 2015 growth is the new hepatitis c treatments that have impacted 2014 and 2015 growth in drug spending. so the final time period that i will discuss is the eight years of projection period 2016 to 20e 23. for medicare we are expecting afrnl growth of 27.3%. so the first factor here is continued -- about 3%. but we're expecting faster growth of 4.3%, which is which would be higher than what has been experienced in the recent past. and this is as a result of modest increases in use and in payment rates. not getting as high as it has been in the recent past, but coming off the low of the past few years. for medicare, we're expecting 6.8% average annual growth during this period and here enrollment is projected to stabilize. however, the growth is projected to be driven by high enrollment of the subpopulation of aging and disabled medicare beneficiaries, which are the most expensive to cover in that population. finally in this slide, private health insurance growth is projected to be lower than medicare and medicaid at 5.4% but also this growth would b

the conclusions regarding shadow impacts and the final eir were not effected. for all other projects as analyzed in the draft eir the changes don't effect the draft eir. those changes reflected in the document you have before you and those are the in final eir we request you adapt the eir and the procedures for which the eir was prepared comply with sequa the sequa guidelines that concludes my presentation. unless the commission members have any questions >> thank you. >> good afternoon commissioner president wu and members of the commission i'm assistant director of planning together those constitute the project for the muscone on howard between 3 and fourth street. since the commission heard the physical aspects of the will project i'll focus on the key attributes once i've concluded my presentation the mucus folks will have a presentation. san francisco's primary meeting facility the proposed project will increase the mucus center through 3 areas of expansion first, it will maximize the space on mucus north and south the primary goal this will be achieved by

>> the economic impacts are clearly negative.he most important thing in hong kong is for there to these some stability, predictability in terms of the economic affairs all of the associated issues. if these protests last, if you see days and weeks of new stability in trouble, this hurts hong kong and in the long wrong run that will hurt the people protesting. >> you mentioned stability. to foreign investors, the view is not about democracy or the calls for democracy? >> i think there are two issues. part of the people protesting are quite frankly high school do not have enough experience to really understand the long-term implications of the economic system and political system that is in place. and they are a significant portion of this. then there is another body who are real pro-democracy demonstrators and fighters who are unhappy with this system and the way it now works that they do not really have the suffrage they thought they were going to have. so it is both of those issues are at play. impactis the economic that is most

this paper confirms that and talks about the plus loan impact and it shows the disproportionate impact on the hbcu's. title documents of the crisis and after an advocacy campaign, the department of education formally proposed new parent plus loan rules that will open colleges to thousands of more students. research by practitioners is necessary for future cases like this, thank you. >> that you very much. we have the time that you can ask questions. there is microphones here at the end of each aisle. come forward quickly. forward, ie coming will pitch one at the authors. with thethe problem abuse of loans has taken place in the for-profit sector. are we firing the cannon and hitting the wrong target as we try to restrict plus loans for other kinds of institutions? sarah? >> i think there is no question about where the challenges lie. i do think the story and the for-profits is a bit more complicated than the one that has been told thus far. i think there are probably some that are engaged in behaviors we should be concerned about and others that may not be. arefact of the matter is we

impact because long-term , there will be an impact. people are wondering when it is going to stop.are going to lose faith on either side. they are calling for him to step down. the likelihood of that? >> the political outcome is unclear. there needs to be some sort of compromise. was that it would be something to reinvigorate the markets here in hong kong and in china, getting more foreign money into china through hong kong. this is disruptive. >> i am wondering how that is going to affect china as a whole. we are seeing immediate stocks -- shocks coming to hong kong. what does it have to do with china as a whole? >> we commented earlier on the impact on china on an economic level. it is fairly limited. this is an issue for hong kong. >> on top of the data we are seeing out of china. >> the biggest issue is the structure in china. this is not going to be on the same scale as some of the issues they are facing economically. >> would you buy into these stocks? look at the hang seng. >> we have been holding a little more cash, not because of the issue here, but more an issue around wh

of sea level rise how have they evaluate the impacts required under sequa. recommendation 3 also talking about the building code and the ports building code this had address the impacts with sea level rise especially with strm rise and will insure the protection from sea level rise and also amendments to protect the most vulnerable system and be reviewed and reassessed every 5 years will require further analysis. the statement and the rational being any further implementation of the building codes will require prirmgs changes and further analysis between of the scientific community must be performed to perform effectively policies and to address our sea level rise. finding 5 just states we engaged in a process to conduct the ocean beach master plan we agree number 5 we look at the master plan this is recommendation has been implement i'll note it is ongoing. the city is currently working with all agencies and finding 11 states the city has not set aside funds we agree with that statement i suggest we agree with that statement but also note open the side whil

but could it have a longer and more serious impact than previously thought? edge of eighteen tackles different subjects with students. >> my parents basically hated each other and my mother was having an affair. >> i can't get over something, scarred you so much. >> divorce on the rise since 2009 after a 40-year low is it time to confront these impacts on kids in a more serious manner? joining us in studio is randy kessler. he's been a divorce attorney for more than 20 years and a former chair of the family law section of the american bar association. author of divorce, protect yourself your kids and your future. mariana sam, is the student you just saw on edge of eighteen. and julia is a psychologist and the co-author, of the book the unexpected legacy of divorce. thanks to all of you for being here. julia you did a groundbreaking 25 year study on the children of divorce. we all reflectively say divorce is tough on kids. but are we paying attention to how tough it is and the long term impacts? >> probably not. even though there have been several studies that

higher emissions mean more warming and impacts. the new white house report released this morning explains how to bloody the cost against the nation not only will we suffer increased damages associated with the impact of the impact of climate change, we will also have extensive mitigation costs as the needed amount of reduction speakers speed and with each year of delete action. this morning i want to make several key points about the epa proposal. first although some are urging bpa to allow industrial facilities to salute impunity is the agency must stay committed to its nation protecting our children from carbon pollution is your legal duty and its everyone's obligation. second, the epa will have the opportunity to strengthen the proposal before it is finalized last year. we urge them to do so. some of the lowest cost emissions available are in our electricity system and we should do all we can to take advantage of them. for example the powerplant should recognize the huge potential of energy efficiency and the remarkable demonstr

when these things happen, how does that impact your business. is there an immediate impact?t think things happen like a phone call. clearly, the message is change. awareness. you see what happened with target. the cio and coo understand that you have to go up the chain. ask more questions, make more awareness. i think security is more of an administrative task. people want to know what they need to do in order to be more secure. >> have you shifted your business in any way to take advantage of these breaches so that you are ready to deal with those problems that these companies are facing? >> it is more about being the right architecture. saleis case, the point of which is mostly retail around the world, and we have significant retail customers. go out there and discuss not just the specific breach, but the architecture that will help them perform those kind of problems. there are things they can do. once we analyze specific problems, we come up with something much broader than that. we discuss with those customers about those specific environment and protect them. >> there

mistake that we are impacted by it.our biggest concerns mirror those were your from other industries. natural-gas and the uncertainty of exactly what the outside defense mandate it means my plan. the manufacture claybrook requires energy to transform raw materials into a durable, sustainable, long-lasting quality building material. claybrook manufacturers and distributors nationwide operate in a sustainable manner while committing to doing our share to minimize the environmental impact to protect our employee health and safety. the clay brick industry understands the importance of reducing greenhouse gases and is committed to measure is : including minimizing energy consumption, pursuing alternative energy sources and improving manufacturing processes and technology. we share a lot of the same views as the people who are on the other side of the aisle. we just have some concerns over the vastness of this rule. the clay brick industry also encourages balanced policies that protect the environment well allow reasonable ec

law impact will be. except it could have an impact in this current election because a number of states have just instituted it. some had it in 2012, others just instituted it. there could be a number of people who show up at the polls who forgot their driver's license and simply decide to go back home. in laces like kansas that now have this phot photoi.d. law. the most interesting place in terms of control of the senate will be in georgia and north carolina, which have cut down on some of their early voting which i think is going to have a bigger impact than it did there in 2012. and also the i.d. law in wisconsin a place that's going to have an extremely tight gubernatorial race, the jury what i'm became of saying is actually still out on the actual impact of these laws. and the historical low impact -- >> speaking of this, what's the evidence that there is an impact, this gets me to think, in 2012 president obama won in two key states, florida and new hampshire, both of those stats s had already enact

sf 71234 >> environmental impact report. joining me is historic preservation specialist and environmental planner and supervise for this project and i would like to add there are members of the project sponsor and consultant team here as well. the item before you now is review and comment on the draft environmental impact report for the 800 indiana street project. the project site is located at indiana street between 20 and 22nd street. within the dog patch neighborhood in the southeast quadrant of the city. the sites adjacent to the freeway is currently developed with the 78,000 square foot industrial warehouse which was built around 1926. the wears -- the warehouse is being used. the warehouse and construction of a five 5 story approximately 58-foot tall multifamily residential development separate buildings each designed by different architectural firm for 237-gross square feet of residential uses. the proposed project would include 138 residential units. ground floor residential amenities and parking garage with up to 23

meetings that were had with neighborhoods reneighbors up to four years ago as well as the parking impact that are 48 parking places on stackers and lift and i have reason to building that the number of cars coming and going is going to be small i don't think it's going to have a significant impact on traffic, however, in response to the parents who brought up the cap street i drove down there yesterday two twice one in the early afternoon and later and i think you have a problem even without a project the parents are picking up the kids after school where the playground is on cap street. i think you need a light zone or possibly need if the city can do that an area that was carved out of the nearest he planning latent print to the school that allowed parents to wait for their children and that's the key thing the children shouldn't be wandering especially a 5-year-old wandering around trying to go to school i have grandchildren of that age we don't let them cross the street i don't think a child of that age should be out of there and the other thing you need on this street is to think ab

we released a study looking at the impact of ebola. we found almost independent of the number of cases is the aversion behaviour, the closing of the ports. it's that behaviour that had the biggest economic impact before s.a.r.s., h1 n 1, that it wasn't the lives lost, but the behaviour that accompanied it that led to the economic shock. we need to, as a doctor, think about the people suffering. it's powerful if we can say, and not only is it the right thing to do. but if you care about the stability of the global economy, prepare better and we'll jump on this so it doesn't spread further. the recent data is if we do nothing, and don't speed up the response, 550 cases is responsible. we pulled in all the stots. what the u.s. d was fnts. they'll be focussed on building -- what the u.s. did was they'll be focus on building hospital beds. >> we worry that our response is not right. are we getting better? we seem to have a similar conversation. you understand the nuances of pan dem ics. are we better with s.a.r.s. and similar threats. >> a

i understand the impact of the project. there are a lot of old event -- vend -- i think practically the mitigation sponsor will help. i know it's frequent 33 owner of these types of homes that have funded the libraries and parks and projects that i have promoted in the neighborhood. i'm looking forward to new patrons. thank you. >> is there additional public comment? okay, public comment is close. >> good afternoon, i'm harry hunt. i was once a tenant at bill bail ey's cottage back in the 60st. the lot has been a problem to me ever since buildings were des demolished. and people were against any forward movement or development and want everything to remain the same. this project has been very well discussed, the developers have met with the community and have really tried to mitigate the problems that they see, the west has been opened up. i think the project is an excellent project and i hope it goes through. >> thank you. is there additional public comment? okay. public comment is closed. commissioner antony? >> thank you

it's demolition would be considered a significant impact. the project site is located in enclose proximity to but not within both the dog patch landmark district and the central water front third street industrial historic district. however, the historic resource evaluation in response for the project also found that even though the proposed project would result in an significant unvoidable impact to historic resources to the on-site warehouse; the proposed project would not affect the integrity of the district and assigned to address the massing of the skills and the contract and the street scape and dog parks variance would not impact any nearby historic resources. the following historic resource measures were included in the draft ir. the first complete building is survey or documentation prior to demolition, a salvage program and installation of a permanent on-site interpretive exhibit. these mitigation measures would not reduce the impact of historic resources to a less significant level. that's the i am mpact on historic resources woul

project all of the comments it's a vacant lot quite a ways away from the neighbors as far as the impact of light and air it's not having an effect and was appointment out the views are not protected on someone's property you don't own those arguments are not valid and also staff seems the height is in keeping with the rest of the neighborhood there a number of building in the area that are 3 floors it becomes larger as a drops down the hill but not open the street level i generally think a that's a good project according to those plans approximately 28 feet to the par fit 279 and so this is thirty there it is over 2 feet higher than that plan the massaging it similar i like the art deco on the 91 ensue unfortunately that's not brurs before us today, i think it is going to be a good project. >> commissioner moore. >> mr. sanchez i have a technical question for you could you explain the granting of that agreements dynamic quite sure what happened. >> in terms of how we refer it for the rear yard calculation we go by the property lines for the agreement by another prove or disprove by the

the impacts, $15 billion plus annually. what does that mean, this economic impact? >> most economic analysis, that impact in terms of what it duds to the economy throughout the state, it has an impact of what we purchase and how other higher and how that money play into the economy. to that's more or less a direct and indirect impact of those expenses on the economy in the region. >> and we want to hear from wisconsin residents this morning. we have a fourth line set aside for them. we have divided lines by students, parents, educators and wisconsin residents. want to hear from you about the university of wisconsin and impact on your state. we're talking with ray cross, who's the president of the university of wisconsin system. how big is the university of wisconsin madison? >> madison has about 43,000 to 4 44,000 students. it's probably in the middle of the big ten, sixth or seventh, in that category of big ten. it's the third largest recipient of u.s. dollars, it's a major institution, it's been ranked in the top five ever since i can remember. it puts a tremendou

it will still have some impact on the tropics, though. we have a new storm down here towards the south. this is a tropical depression expected to become a tropical storm in the next 24 hours. this could have an interaction with this and pull it off to the north. impacting japan, possibly. still time to watch and see what happens there. behind the storm, though, high pressure's going to be dominating much of china, bringing in drier weather. the indochina peninsula seeing heavy rainfall, and same thing goes here for northeastern india. you remember a few weeks ago, we were talking about the severe flooding back to the west, in cashmere, and also through pakistan. this is a separate event. still associated with the monsoon. but you can see some areas here, 500 to 600 millimeters of precipitation in the last several days. let's show the video coming out of here. it's pretty rough images. people having a rough time driving through here. about 40 people have actually died in the flooding and landslides triggered by the heavy rains in northeast

it should not impact you too much unless people slow down to look at the people on strike. that could cause a backup. negotiations have been breaking down define the management and union impacting ferry captains, bus mechanics and bridge workers. they have had no contract since july 1. the strike will not back the commuters, consider this a warning. >> by striking we are calling on the public to tell the board to secretaries the issues before another strike happens that does impact the working lives of commuters. >> we encourage our workers to come to work and the union to come back to the table to get this settled. >> this is a one day strike. ferry and bus service is not impacted but it could strike next week if a deal is not reached and they would stop the ifries and buses. the sticking point is the cot of health health care with no new talks currently scheduled. >> thank you. at sun yet firefighters will resume the battle with three out-of-control wildfires in northern california. highway wind fewed the fire bumping through a small town at mount shasta with 100 damaged

the center for disease controls has stated that prep could have a significant impact on the u.s. hiv epidemic. yet not withstanding that fact, fewer than a thousand city of city of san francisco #9 has had access to prep and in response to hiv for more than 30 years, we need to once again play a leadership role to make sure that we roll out prep to the fullest extent possible. it is simply time for san francisco to play that leadership role once again. approvals by the fda, centers for disease control and others who helped create access for insurance reimbursement for prep, has made this available to some people but obstacles remain. to prevent hiv infection many physicians hesitate to prescribe it due to lack of familiarity of treatment. and some require prior authorization and depending on an individual's insurance coverage, individual cost can vary significantly. this thursday i will be holding a hearing for the neighborhood services committee meeting to discuss how to take a roll in providing prep to city of san francisco regardless of income. i want to thank you for their co

but we can minimize its worst impacts, keep the catastrophes from happening. and that's incredibly important, and the irony is it wouldn't even be that expensive. we can replace all of our energy infrastructure rebuild all of our power plants for a small fraction of our total economic well-being. holdren: we keep hearing, "well, we're not gonna change this" or "we're not gonna change that because it'll hurt the economy." what everybody needs to understand is that not addressing the risks of climate change is likely to have far higher cost to the economy than addressing it. it's much cheaper to take preventive action than to try cope with disaster after it has occurred. and indeed there are many options for addressing climate change that we often call win-win options because we can reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and reduce human influences on climate while getting other benefits while preserving biodiversity, while expanding opportunities for sustainable employment by promoting innovation that develops new products that can deliver the goods and services that

are you looking to mitigate. >> there's impacts on clayton street in terms of light and privacy and ashbury street in terms of the fact it didn't follow the roofline it clearly is way above the ashton roofline it is not period of time inept to the ash burger roofline it hooves over is west side it completely pops out on the west side so those are the elements, of course, their - >> the jumps. >> you've seen the presentation. >> the elevation in the back. >> not only in the backyard by above the joining buildings in the backyard and in the front on the west side of ashbury. >> thank you. appreciate that so generally for meality it would be good to hear your comments it revolves around the variance and a dr that follows the variance but we're trying to get a lot of height i can't build that so. >> yeah. yeah, but i want to make a point this is not a in the middle type of developer this is a guy that absolutely. >> yeah. yeah, i don't think the height own the ashbury it is the massing on is ashbury it's taller than the building if you want to garage i think i'm more concerned with the
