despite the technology we can't also precinct what it will be but cities can take action to mitigate the disruption when crises are unavailable. this this requires an investment of the resources about money and human capital. the thing about investing in resistance it doesn't just benefit a city when a disaster strikes but when done properly it produces jobs and better social services and other examples of what we call the realigns diversified something that benefits residents everyday per we at the rockefeller foundation have been working over a decade in past katrina new orleans and asia cities across 8 countries black and white super storm sandy and so there the reinvestment go programs we have public-private partnerships that invest in an segregated way on infrastructure. we've been working with the state of california and the 3 other west coast states oregon and washington and british columbia columbia to develop the interest infrastructure challenge that works to strengthen finance important public-private partnerships across the jurisdictions. we bring the steps of expertise to

last year was the highest number of faltsdz in our city and traffic collisions we need to do more about it. so we're unveiling that and reminding everyone that traffic enforcement will be there throughout the city and we have evidence to back it up. the pedestrian strategic group that's he represented behind me buts by everyone and advocacy groups have taken a look at at the data that's improved more and more and built upon straevenlz of other cities and we've come up with a provided list of areas in of the city that represents the 6 percent of the street grids they end up being the sites where the fatalities happen and we need to focus on those right now and right away. even though we have $50 million embedded in the bond that we plan to present to the voters in november the transportation infrastructure bond we have come up with an immediate $17 million to promote the walk first program in san francisco. it's literally taking the highest percentage of intersections and streets and kindergartners and putting some designs of safety idea in plays play. for example, i'll give you a few examp

and when you look at what it takes to get housing in the city it is not it's not adequate it's barely enough the moving alone. we're at great risk in the city to losing long term tenants or tenants in general's i know i moved into the castro in 2007 i don't think i could move into the castro today so the people who are evicted that's a problem. ear moving forward to stabilize people in the housing that is very important and never lose sight of what supervisor campos said we must address the structural problems in our housing problems eave shot ourselves in the foot by not producing housing and pit ourselves in the situation where average month is over $3,000 a month. i support this legislation and look forward to the amendments one of my questions was that the legislation didn't deny how you did the calculation i can think of a number of different ways to do that and i don't think the board should be delegating to the controls office the responsibility of determining how to do the calculation that's a policy decision for the board i understand there are will other things that can aris

whether it was harder than other cities is hard to say. philadelphia was a heavily manufacturing town. when those jobs disappeared it tack a hard hit and maybe a little longer than other cities figure out what the next step is. now it's dependent on education and the medical sector and that is working better for the city. >> is the geography of philadelphia - does it work against it? a lot of wealthy people say they are from philadelph philadelphia, but they live in the collar counties, the wealthy counties where the property tax doesn't go to the city of philadelphia. >> that's part of the issue. one of the things that was fascinating to us is when we did the analysis and compared to other cities, a snapshot in 2010, we found the size of the middle class in philadelphia, was not different to a lot of other cities. what was different was the size of the upper income group. in philadelphia, it was 9-10% in places like washington, boston, new york, it's 15, 16, 17%. that's a big difference. as you say in those cities, some of those people, a
