the legislation before us today relates to the extremely important 55 laguna project in district 8. this project in addition to providing close to 500 units of much-needed housing, in the upper market and haight valley/lower haight area will almost provide 40% of the units as affordable units, including the open house project. which provides over 100 affordable housing units for lgbt seniors and as we know the needs of our lgbt senior population are significant. right now waller street, the imaginery waller street because it's not really a street anymore, but it's technically a street bisects the project. the resolution before us today will authorize a are purchase and sale agreement between the city and the university of california for waller street right-of-way between laguna and buchanan. it's currently unimproved and not accessible to the public and is useds a private parking lot for ucsf. this agreement the university of california will record a restricted easement and sharing that the street is maintained in perpetuity as a public park. community has been working with the deve

for the laguna honda hospital replacement program, you have modification before you to increase the contract from 16.196 million to 16.805 million dollars to provide construction management service to the remodel of the h wing, which is the existing facility at laguna honda hospital, work has been underway for several years, construction has extended beyond what was originally sants -- anticipated, this is to provide the funds for staffing for construction cost estimating and construction scheduling as well as administrative support to the program team for the remainder of the work on the h wing which we anticipate will be completed by the spring of next year. one other thing i would like to mention, the budget analyst has pointed out that modification 15 which was approved administratively brought the contract value to 16.6 million, so we are actually looking to modify the resolution here to reflect that, so the increase that we're asking for is just what is included in modification 16 in the -- sorry, from 16694421 to 168051633. >> so, in that sense, you are in agreement that -- w

the planning commission initially approved the 55 laguna projects a mixed-use project. with retail and community space in 200. after extensive community involvement and debate -- the board of supervisors substancely approved legislation to create the special use district and the san francisco superior court upheld that. since then we have had discussions with both members from the carpeters union, as well as wood partners -- and we understand that they are going to be discussing this issue in more detail on thursday, but i wanted to just state for the record the supervisor' experience with this project and how she saw this was integrated and had you she really felt that the union jobs should be offered for both sides of it. it was never her understanding it would only be union on one side of it and not the whole project itself. >> thank you and please thank supervisor olague. supervisor wiener or supervisor cohen. >> chris i have a couple of questions as a matter of clarification. so today your role is just to read into the record the supervisor's comments. are there an

honda for them to have been taken away and thinking of the age group of the patients at laguna honda and i think that this is something that many people may not be aware of that has adversely impacted the patients because it means a lot to seniors to really have a good doctor because they know that they have someone that listens to them. i am equally disturbed because they were dismissed for doing the right thing and it is just unbelievable at this day and age, that we are going through this, but we have to go through this. i think that if this is a conflict of interest, and i think that it is. i think that this case really should be referred out. i think that for your own intelty and for your own self-respect and you are an important body, granted we may not always agree with you, but you are all educated and i can understand that there are unseen forces that may be behind you, but for your own integrity and your own self-respect, i would ask that you do the right thing and that you refer this case out and not try to make a decision that involves the executive director, because that

i was assaulted two years ago at the corner of laguna and page and sent to the hospital with a concussion. by a road rage driver there. the point is there are many transportation issues that have still not been addressed in this area * . and yet we're talking about funneling money from the sale of these parcels back for affordable housing. now, i'm a big supporter of affordable housing, but this notion of true up is something new to me. i was on the central freeway cac when [speaker not understood] was handling these sales and there was never any mention about a true up. and if you look at the sale of those parcels, the cost of those parcels that the redevelopment agency paid versus the market rate parcels, you'll see they paid much, much less than the market rate parcels. so, i just want to point this out. until we have completed the octavia boulevard project and dealt with these transportation issues, we shouldn't be talking about using money for affordable housing. it wasn't intended to be used for that purpose. thank you very much. >>> good afternoon and thank you for your time. i've

so you have formerly homeless seniors, people who have been in laguna honda living with other folks who may still qualify for affordable housing so have more means, but also have aging issues and other service needs that the building addresses. so when we do services in these buildings it's not just exclusively to direct access to housing tenants. the access points, just to give you an idea who gets in and where we are looking for people, access into direct access to housing is through acute and psychiatric hospital, long-term care, so laguna honda and other places, intensive case management programs that work in the community, our primary care clinics, our sobering and respite center and our fabulous street outreach program. one of our biggest clients and trusted partners. and, you know, the reason we do this and the health department is doing this is, one, because we think it's the right thing to do and we have spent so many dollars and so many years spinning our wheels with trying to help people recover, only to realize the obvious, that it's ludicrous to do it without housing. how d

this started around 2:00 at eddy and laguna as officers tried to stop a cadillac with a burned-out bulb over its license plate. that ended blocks away at eddy and franklin. that's where the driver blew through a red light and was hit by a taxicab. the cab was going so fast it hit a parking meter and kept going halfway down the block. the officers didn't follow right away but caught up and they were certainly rattled. >> it's a lot to go through. it takes a while to process this through your brain and realize what happened. even as time goes on throughout the day, they'll probably still think of what happened. it takes a lot. >> reporter: now, the two people that were inside that cadillac jumped out and ran, so officers not only shot at but had to chase these two suspects on foot. they caught one of them. they think that person is the passenger. they say the driver is still out there somewhere. still not sure why these two reacted the way they did, but they tell me that cadillac was not stolen. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "today in the bay." >>> also new this morning

transaction, the affordable housing components are really all part of a package deal of making the 55 laguna project move forward. as supervisor olague and chris orazo speaking on behalf of supervisor olague, this is a package deal and there is no way this deal would have been approved if it was just 330 private units at the uc site. i think everybody knows that and it's important to recognize that the city's financial contribution is integral to making this project happen and that is what we're asking the supervisors to recognize. it's really reiterating something that i think everybody already knows and moving toward in a way to make sure that the workers who build this at the end, that we don't have a situation where the men and women building 110 units on believe of mercy housing are paid a fair and reasonable wages while the workers build 330 units for private market development are basically paid at whatever the market can bear and usually in the development community, that ends up being as little as possible. so to the extent that you guys -- that this committee can make an amendment

francisco police say this all began at around 2:00 this morning just a few blocks from here at ellis and laguna. that's when officers say they were trying to pull over a car for a broken license plate light. and that is when the suspect's car tried to get away. not only that, they believe that the suspect or suspects fired shots on officers. as they tried to catch up to this car at eddy and franklin there was a crash with a cab. after that the suspects tried to run away. police arrested the passenger of the car but one man is still on the loose. they believe it is the driver of the car. it's still an active scene, officers gathering evidence from the taxi and the car. right now they have the passenger in custody. they want to gather more information as time progresses at this time. they set up a perimeter to look for the suspect but said it's such a wide area. they did take that down. these suspects are not from san francisco but other than that we only know that they are two males and we are still waiting for more information. live in san francisco, cate caugiran, cb 5. >>> police are conducti

a few blocks from where we are at ellis and laguna. that's where officers flashed their lights at the suspects and police say the car appeared to pull over and then took off then quickly stopped and officers heard shots fired and stopped their car. the suspects' car then sped away. by the time police caught up to them the suspect car crashed into a cab and after that crash, they say that the suspects took off. >> don't know why they ran, maybe because they had a gun in a car? they could be wanted. we don't know who the driver is. we believe we have the passenger at the station. some of the stuff around the car showed they are not from san francisco. but other than that i don't know why they ran. >> reporter: now, officers were able to arrest the passenger of that car. and they said there were no injuries to any officers. the taxicab driver did have a minor hand injury. obviously, this is an ongoing investigation. when we last heard from san francisco police department, they hoped to have more information later today. live in san franci
