2nd january 19th. well, i'm going to move it to january 19th. we can continue a second time >> commissioner more and more. >> i look the zoning administrator to help kind of frame the issues properly and the issues are the recommendation for live ability to bedroom windows and the absolute need for compromise cinnamons of the court yard and it does and does not meet the court yard it's 70 feet short of the thirty feats it needs to be i think it needs to be 23 feet and the issue that the 6 by 6 balcony is so minimal you can't see people. i'd like to have somebody meet with the applicant and how quickly this plan could be resolved and i do disagree that the explores of cars is really want we want above. nobody who going goes by will distinguish that this all space will be visible to the street and that's unacceptable. >> commissioner wu. i want to make a comment about outreach. this project came to us and the neighbors said they didn't have the chance to speak with the sponsor. it's hard to know but it's

workshop on the recognized obligation payment schedule for january 1, 2014 to june 30, 2014, rops, 13-14 b, discussion. >> i want to announce that i will to leave soon and if you don't think that it is rude i will turnover to rosales, when i step out. okay. sorry go ahead. >> thank you. commissioners, members of the public, as you are aware, although, you approved the budget, the board of supervisors and the mayor approved our annual budget, in july, of this year, and there are other layers of authority, and per state disillusion laws that provoids for a 6-month look at proposed expenditures for what is called a recognized payment schedule or the ropses. a number of these have been approved by the over site board over the fiduciary obligations and ultimately the state department of finance has the final say and this is an informational presentation and no action today, but we will come back to you prior to final action, by the over site board and with that, the deputy director, will present this item. >> good afternoon commissioners, my pleasure to be before you once again, with the r

be back up to where we were in january of this year we'll again, that process of having folks got out and professionalism saturation on problem areas. i don't want you to think we're selectively picking certain areas or areas that we're enforcing we want to be fair we want to be impartial. although if you look at those numbers it's hard to not draw that conclusion. and i think in the end the mta is very good at the doing parking enforcement with they enforce a certain impact of the law. but i personally think a lot of folks agree that parking is one of the areas it's harder to enforce could use more attention >> and i agree with you. >> thank you. >> continue with my presentation with a few more slides. this is the breakdown of the citations vs. downtown and this is parking meters one and 2 which include south of market and the financial district and broadway. in terms of streets mission street is our number one street by sheer nature it would be the heaviest transit routes so it's a priority that our agency anyway's there are no double parking. and streets like hate and chet north nu

it'll be two years in january. at the same time, it is hard to believe that this is really starting tomorrow. what they're going to do is roll the ship up from being on its

our final fieldwork is scheduled for september through january 2014. and our expected date of issuance of the financial statements is october 25th. that also includes any significant deficiency reports. and the issuance of the single audit report is expected to occur before january 31st, 2014. on slide 19, i just wanted to highlight as auditors we do have a responsibility to identify fraud risks and respond to those fraud risks. we will be performing risk assessments of those risks through increase with management and discussions with the engagement team. and we will also design audit procedures to respond to those respective fraud risks and report to you any findings we may have. and then lastly, i just wanted to indicate on slide 22 that we are in our professional judgment independent with respect to the city as that term is defined by professional standards. and at this time if there are any questions that i can help address. >> thank you very much. are there any questions, colleagues? supervisor campos. >> thank you. so, in terms of the process, ho

residents will be subject to the mandate which becomes effective on january 1. those that are not subject to the mandate include undocumented individuals, that will be the largest proportion of individuals not subject to the mandate. those experiencing hardships such as homelessness, people with incomes below the threshold for filing federal tax returns which is about 9750 dollars per year, the incarcerated, those are the religious exemptions. >> my apologies, do you have copies of the slides for the committee. >> i'm sorry, i do not, i apologize. >> continue, please. >> anyone who is subject to the individual mandate and fails to show klein which will be done through their tax return, financial penalties will apply, the penalty in the first year is $95 which is low in acknowledgment of this new requirement but it creases to 695 dollars in 2016, it expands public insurance for low-income citizens through the medicate program, it creates the amazon.com of health insurance, it incentive employers to offer coverage, it makes health insurance more accessible and for

the second thing is before january 1st we are seeing some insurance companies trying to lock in someiness under the old rules. so i would say be ware don't buy something that goes into effect before january 1st because that new market as debra was saying will be a lot more friendly to consumers. >> who benefits most? >> i think the millions of americans who are going to be able to buy affordable coverage. and it's a great expansion of the market for the private insurers. but for americans who have been out in the cold uninsured, this is critical. we know delaying health care is bad medicine. conditions get worse, and that's why we need to all make this work. >> so what is covered now for basic services? >> under the health care law, ten essential health care benefits have to be in every policy. it may include mental health care maternity care. many people buy health insurance now in the individual market have been buying relatively bare bones coverage because that's all they can afford. and now they will get relatively comprehensive policies. when you go to the exchange you will have

how many people will sign up in january or will they go uninsured? i don't know, the other thing people have not looked at, they lo looked a lot at the coverage subsidies for the premiums, but not the subsidies for the cost-sharing. and what that does is turn these plans really into something that have very low cost sharing, but the only way to control costs, it becomes to limit the network. so that is what you're seeing, plans offering limited networks and doctors and hospitals. >> mr. gruber, why don't you respond and just lay out the deal. as i understand it, the individual mandate is aimed at doing principally one thing and that is at compelling healthy young individuals, maybe the young to buy insurance, a group that typically says, i don't get sick so i'm not buying. >> the individual mandate is designed to do one thing, but i would design it differently. it is designed to allow america to move to insurance that doesn't allow the sick not to get insured. we passed a law to get rid of it. it messed up our insurance markets, you can't have your c

naturally unit into a smaller and less affordable unit by setting a the building envelope as it was on january 1st, 2013, we first say that the non conforming units could be expanded. as proposed the units will be limited in size and scope. that concludes any presentation i'm available for questions. >> thank you. opening it up for public comment? any public comment on this item >> seeing none, public comment is closed. >> commissioner. >> i know on its face i'm not sure i, be supportive where we - we don't have the language yet. while i think it's really important we try to improve our housing stock by making units more liveable and save for proper plumbing and others things i think this may have been better when it first start because it is not allowing the property owners to expand too large or making it difficult to expand unit to make larger units that would be more familiar friendly and my question is: has to do with the idea those are you guess they say something like 52 thousand units in the city that are not in conformity but it's kind of a board stroke i'm not sure what's trying to b

under this proposal you would be able to do that but not expand the envelope of the building after january 1st, 2014. >> could i have a followup. >> yes. >> sophie or scott. how does in the 3 unit building how is it determined which one is a non-xhoufrm unit >> typically we allow the property own to - it's a proposal that two of the units we would ask them to file a notice of special restrictions so in the future there's permitting an extension of that. >> okay. thanks. >> commissioner. i oppose that. i know it's widespread but typically the neighborhood likes the density most people are there because of the density and maybe it maybe harmless enough but something that may have long been permitted illegal but it's still adds for cars to the streets probably and adds for density and couple that although this is straightaway separate from the in law problem we've got problems with illegal in-laws and over density we have two. small units in san francisco and by putting other bedroom in but you're going to cutup smaller rooms didn't make it that much more liveable. it is over density where th

in the news of january 19th 1848, judith was ejected off a small farm by the landlords james and johnarker. she wandered in want without shelter and entered her former abode on the 18th of august last. for this forceable possession shes tried and sentenced to 6 months confinement which punishment of and died of natural causes. eventually i find mention of the easterly of conwell evicting tenants in the near by town land. september 13, 1848 the newspaper says on monday last the agent of lord kwanwell attended by sheriff, police and bailiff evicted 9 families in 50 souls from the town lands near by. nothing could be more disstressing than to hear the clanking of the embarrass of the cabins mingled with the shrieks of women and children. i switch from reading the newspapers to the books i find james lacy of the books of lectural district of the poor law union. the library has most of the electoral district books for the 1840's. they are beautiful leather bound books with copper writing and calligraphy. the spelling of each name is not consistent from year to year. i find lacy spelled as

we are hoping to have that completed by january 2014. in regards to recommendation 3.1, sfpd should update the citation form to include a categories of bicycle infractions. i'm happy to say that too has been implemented as of january 2014. the electronic process citation as well as the handwritten citation. regarding recommendation 4.2 which is a request for the police department to collaborate with the bicycle va c in the sfmta in the city should build an enforcement safety campaign around the goals in 4.1 and alert the public in the plans that will follow. in many instances this is also implemented. the sfpd has already implemented numerous traffic safety campaigns. for example, recent efforts were aimed at reducing traffic driving and dui infractions and back to school enforcement with the 15 miles an hour speed limit around the school. it was an incredible success for kids going back to school. through discussions with the bicycle safety steering committee, sfpd would determine if additional enforcement campaigns are important. as th

nobody is getting coverage before january 1st, i think.sign up in january or february, your coverage will start the following month. the early stages of obamacare are heavily focused on getting coverage for those without health care coverage. david joins me now with a look at wellness programs under obamacare. i feel like i use recuse myself from this conversation, given i don't participate in a lot of wellness programs, but -- [ technical difficulties ] -- costs would be much lower. >> that's true. it's often reallies really the holy grail of health care. your employer has an interesting of keeping its employees healthy. and obamacare, companies may have incentive to keep people coming to work. >> reporter: staying healthy could gave you money under obamacare. under the affordable care act, there are new incentives for employer to make their employees healthier. those costs include reimbursements for gym memberships attendance at wellness seminars or regularly going for checkups. that leasts up to as much as 50% for employees who enroll i

he died in january. bobby cunningham. he died in january, 1994. c-span: why did you do this book? >> guest: i was interested in what's happening with the underclass - the american underclass. i had read studies by the urban institute that said that the underclass in size has tripled in the united states since 1970 and i was interested in the reasons why, and why it was perpetuating itself ... why this poverty a very deep and distressful poverty as well as criminal deviancy was going on from one generation to the next so i went into the dc jail literally in the summer of 1987 and interviewed, over an 18 month period, 20 men and 20 women inmates who fit the profile the urban institute had established of what constitutes an underclass family. and in that process i also met rosa lee cunningham. i selected four families to follow. three of the families were dropped for it just became impossible to follow four families at one time. and i concentrated solely on rosa lee's family from september of 1990 until the series was published by the washington post in september of '94. then i took

starting january 1, a court order will be needed to interrupt wireless communication services. in august of 2011, bart pulled the plug on cell phone service at some of san francisco's stations because of protests. the state senator who authored the bill said arbitrarily, shutting off cell phone service could put a lot of people in dodge since they would be unable to call 911. >>> the governor also signed a bill today ensuring more rights for domestic workers. including nannies and housekeepers are required to get overtime pay. that is if they work more than 9 hours a day or more than 4500 hours a week. law goes into effect in january, but will end in 2017 unless it is renewed by state lawmakers. >> a leader in the east bay says he has what it takes to be the next mayor of oakland. the election is still a year away and he raised thousands of dollars. kpix5 caught up with the man and asked what sets him apart? >> at 44 years old with no political background, brian parker is the only reel relative known for running for mayor. he is quick to say he is already making history. >> we

a furious the board adopted an ordinance that eliminated the tax repeals board as of january 1st of this year and we're proposing this ordinance to clean up some code ordinances to that >> okay colleagues any questions. okay. we don't have a report on this and we'll open it up for public comment >> seeing none, public comment is closed. send item 11 to the full board. mr. clerk >> item 12 providing revenue and levying property takes at 180 to the city and county of san francisco, san francisco you've had school districts and bay rapid transit districts at the rate of .088 zero pursuant to administrative code chapter 3637 for the fiscal year ending 2013. >> okay. mr. whitaker thanks for being here. >> i'll be brief i have a slide for the last 4 years the ordinance is about the tax levy to establish .118 percent and it's per $100. proposition 13 passed by california voter no 1993 is property is assessed at the base rate. the bay area and bay area air quality districts for the fund for the bond account for the additional 1.84 levy above the taxation rate. it's based on an inflation rate. fo

it ran aground and tipped other january, 2012. 32 people died, including two americans.rews called today's unprecedented engineering feat perfect, and there is no damage to the environment, but crews will have to wait until spring to tow the ship to nearby port where it will be dismantled. >>> the miss america pageant made history. >> miss new york. >> miss new york nina is the first-ever indian american to win, but it was her heritage that evoked a bit of a racist backlash on social media. some people tweeted she was a terrorist. she tweeted back saying she was proud to be the new girl next door. >> all the negative comments, it's more about probably the cliche of expecting, like, a blond blue-eyed bomb shell. >> i think it's one more sign the indian community as americans is really part of the american fabric now. >> miss california crystal lee was the runner up. she's from san francisco and has two degrees from stanford. >>> hey, the oakland ooshgs es, they're not invincible, but they're okay. 49ers, how hurt are they without their main defensive? we'll update. ,,,,,,

also in january, americans must have insurance, or face fines. >>> the following year in 2015 the focus turns to large companies. they'll face fines of $2,000 per employee if they don't offer insurance. >>> so michael weinberg, take us through this. people must have insurance next year. but businesses don't kick in until the year after. square those two. >> well, the individual mandate is a fundamental tenet of the law. people have to have health insurance if you're going to tell health insurers that they have to provide it. the employer mandate just acts as a fee to raise money for the law rather than as a fundamental structure of it. >> how will businesses be affected, what size businesses and what happens in 2015? >> sure, this part is pretty duplicated. businesses over 50 full time equivalent employees will have to offer some kind of health insurance to all their employees or pay as you mentioned the $2,000 fine. if that coverage doesn't cover a certain part of people's million expenses or isn't affordable or if a person gets a subsidy for these new marketplaces they have to pay $3,

they'll begin before bernanke leaves at the middle of january. so not only are bond proxys having trouble but the stock market was sick today. the s&p all day today upper level to the lower right. wrong direction. lower lows all day i. was ugly and they didn't rally that much but people are lining up to buy protection. they want to buy puts because the tarp has to start. it has to. >> it should do that because the evaluation, how expensive puts are isn't that bad. volatility on things like etfs is low and on single stocks it hasn't fallen that low. if you're thinking about overriding your single name positions or buying etf protection that makes sense here. >> if i'm sitting at home and i i believe that the markets are setting up for some kind of decline or consolidation then the stock i want to be in are the ones that are dividend paying stocks? >> possibly. there's a couple of ways to think about it. first half of this year when rates were low, we had a 10 year yield at 1.6% at one point in the spring, we had seen this flock of investors lookin

just a few days earlier, egypt's supreme court, packed with mubarak-era judges, had declared january's parliamentary elections invalid and ordered the parliament shut down. islamist parties, led by the muslim brotherhood, had won nearly 70% of the seats. >> they destroyed parliament two days before the presidential election, and they knew that if a president comes with a parliament that's been electorally voted in, these two institutions can literally start dismantling the old dictatorship bit by bit. and they had to dysfunction one element of that. >> the dilemma is that the muslim brotherhood come to power through elections. they're supposedly at the helm of the state. so they are in power, but they're actually not in power. >> sennott: egyptians often talk of something they call the deep state: an expression that refers to elements of the mubarak regime embedded deep inside egypt's government. the deep state includes the supreme court, all state-run media, the police, and at the very top, the army. >> the term "deep state" i think originally comes from turkey: the sense that the mil

framed story, a lot of insurers making customers aware of if you sign up for insurance afternoon january 1st your rates go up a lot. but if before january 1st, you can avoid a lot of those rate increases for next 12 months, they are trying to do their customers a favor, there may be a small mi minority who l benefit from the exchanges. gerri: speaking of rising prices report "forbes" average cost for a family will go ups there are $74 no74,000 bucks each year in the wake of obamacare. what do you tell them? >>well, i think that biggest thing is that people are very scared about the uncertainty, and part of issue is no one knows what is going to happen, administration has done a poor job of educating the public at link, a lot of patients come in asking how much does this cost? in last 3 years, patients are focused on costs, and they are very cost sensitive. and to be honest, some patients opting on having surgeries now, than waiting till later because they do not know what is happening later on. gerri: to you, the doctor said that, people are saying, we don't know what to expect. we're co

in door that was opened january 2011 you cannot close. in the same way that after january 2000 11, everyone who got a salary thought that they were entitled to more and therefore everybody want to in egypt you know what happens when you strike hurt either you will get fired or arrested or worse. people are not going to stop. when this dies down at the moment, and it will die down, i think it is possible actually that the current government is aware of that. the interim government is currently desperately spending about 22 billion egyptian pounds, which is just over $3 billion which is a quarter of gave us gulf arabs just on infrastructure. that is really where it is at the moment. people don't have water or gas. to their hospitals because they don't have roads. we just really need infrastructure. even though this new government doesn't have much of a mandate, that is where the money is going. so if the state thinks that people are going to sit down and go away, they are mistaken. >> i just looked at my watch. it is going so fast. so inter

they are proposing to put the prices in effect starting january. the reason they are saying is financial. they expect a record loss of about $6 billion. with the price increase, that would help generate about 2 billion $ in are of new. they raised the price in january by one cent. this is not a done deal. the commission has to review these proposed changes before they can go into effect january 26th of next year. that's the latest from the live desk. >> more on the marathon session taking place on the senate floor. do min coe joins us. we have the marathon session with senator cruz. what's that about? >> this is about ted cruz. >> he is trying to stop -- >> this is not an actual filibuster. under the rules, there is going to be a vote. on who this house bill will advance in the senate. he has to leave the stage. he can't keep going. they don't wait for him. they can have the sergeant at arms escort him out. >> then what is he trying to do. you say it's all about him. he's not getting ready to run for office again. >> giving him the best of exceptio
