commissioner lee: yes. i have one. chairman murphy: commissioner lee? commissioner lee: i was just wondering, when can we get that announcement -- >> we can't hear you. commissioner lee: we need to nominate people to the three subcommittees on the website. >> i have submitted it to the website. i will check again today when i go back. i looked this morning myself to see if it was on. i'll let you know later today. commissioner lee: thank you. chairman murphy: commissioner hechanova? commissioner hechanova: do we have an update on where the del mar issue is? chairman murphy: do you have an update on that, ann? >> i spoke with -- that's an a.a.b. item. i spoke with francesca gessner because we were going to give a brief update. she said since it's been over a year that it would be good for the abatement appeals to have a hearing and to notice the building again and to have the people involved in 135 come forward for a full hearing so we'll do that on the november meeting. commissioner hechanova: and so they're notified? >> they will be notified. the buildi

commissioner lee: i'm sorry. i have to take off. i have to leave because i have another appointment. chairman murphy: if you would, five minutes? commissioner lee: ok. chairman murphy: that's the end of public comments on that. is that correct, ann? >> is there anyone else who wishes to speak? chairman murphy: ok. so i want to, after some discussion and read something notes here, i want to take another look at the item eight, discussion and possible action regarding request for extension of capps. i think the implications that i think the implications that i have in front of me here that we might have gone a little too far. as far as not

you will have another two weeks, but those are the things i wanted to say. president buell: thank you very much. commissioner lee: i have a suggestion for the next meeting when we do take it up to have the existing -- the policy that we had, what you are proposing, and feedback, all three of them in the packet so that we can have it the week before the commission meeting, have a chance to review it, see the changes that are being proposed, and clearly see the feedback that community members have had so we can then engage, and also to give the public an opportunity to look at the policy, to look at the changes. this is too important a topic. it warrants attention, i believe. >> to clarify, are you expecting at the next commission meeting it would be an action item, or that it would be for discussion in two weeks and adopted in november? president buell: if it does not need to be modified. the important issue you are hearing is that all of the contentious items that come to us in this period of change where we are trying to provide outreach for changes taking place in the park, mainly on revenue-producing ideas, h

lee: i know we extended it once before. >> right. commissioner lee: i think we're all very anxious to have this project completed. >> right. commissioner lee: i don't know how the others feel about it, but i'd like to see this finished. >> i would, too. believe me. it's been many years. chairman murphy: commissioner hechanova? commissioner hechanova: i have a question for counsel. at the point of where this determination is to occur this month, is there the possibility of voting on it or tabling it to the next meeting? >> i'm not sure exactly when the contract expires on its own terms. [tone] there is a possibility -- chairman murphy: mr. cornfield will answer that question. >> yeah. the contract was for a 24-month period from the date of the notice to proceed. and then adding to that the previous extension would have required it to determinate, i believe, on september 30. but that only terminates upon our action. it doesn't automatically terminate. and we have not taken action to terminate the contract. obviously we're trying to finish the work. >> the technicality of the date certain was end of september? >> end of septem

i cannot sing. [laughter] but i'm here to support mr. stephen lee for his appointment to become the commissioner -- mr. steven lee. i havewn him for the last 15 years. i know him to be a fair minded and gentle person. he has served in many civic duties, and he is also very active in the chinatown community. i know that he would be a good choice for this post. supervisor campos: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, a supervisor. i am a retired engineer that chose to come back to san francisco to live, and i want to make this a better city. i am uniquely qualified to talk about steven lee because in high school, he was my best friend, even though as adults, we kind of separated. now, as an adult with children, i do want to make this the best city for all of us to enjoy, and i think steven lee will be very active in pursuing that goal, so thank you very much. supervisor campos: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisors. supervisor alioto-pier, thank you when you appoint me for the graffiti advisory board. thank you. thank you when you appoint me -- i never met you before, and you of whitney two terms on

going to split the million quid you hey going to get it yet is that it's well it's million dollars lee i. have so busy at the moment i didn't know or thought it's. thought about this and really come hard year ok you're either a teacher and now your colleague andrew again said i quote that graphene has all the potential to change our life the same way plastics did in the twentieth century so do you think that the twenty first century will be there the the age of graffiti the age of game and know myself. oh yeah absolutely your feeling changed our lives can completely dramatically so we've had fantastic time over the last years and we arrive to this small one which is which is quite good as well but seriously i think it's. it does have a great world potential we still don't realize. how large is this potential i don't want to speculate about a place in silicon or who is with griffin there are folks who more can complicated questions than. the as a said already there are quite a few properties of this material which are unique the mechanical teco electronic and it will find its applications. beca

they have cliff lee, great hitting by josh hamilton. >> well, i think they have to be considered favorites, but i also think the giants have been underdogs so much in the playoffs that it doesn't matter. cliff lee is a great pitcher. he's undefeated in the post season. he may pitch as many as three games in the series if the texas rangers need him. i'm concerned about elvis andrews, he gets on base, he runs around. tim lincecum, a great pitcher, but he doesn't hold runners very well. 24 guy, elvis andrews gets on base and run around. >> so many story angles with regards to the series. one of them is the youngsters playing such a big role. elvis andrews, how about buster posey? he'll be responsible for keeping those guys running wild on the bases. there's a lot of stories to be told. it's time for theory to end and taking part in the actual game. give me your prediction. >> i'm going to go with the giants in 6 games. >> reporter: wow, he stole my thunder. i was going to say giants in 6 games. that's why we work so well together. >> we're on the same page. what do they say, more than 65% of

i have not stopped. if you count the documentary films, we've done, like, 24 and you just have to keep going. >> sheldon jackson-leehat's so funny? >> you all didn't really think it was spike, did you? 1957, atlanta, and then you moved to new york city. >> brooklyn, new york. brooklyn. in the house. how much of what we know is a southern young man or are you through and through brooklyn? >> like most -- not like most, but like a lot of people, african-americans lived in chicago, detroit, new york, summertime your parents sent you down south. so many summers it was split up. it was spent half with my father's mother which is in snow, alabama and the other was spent in atlanta, georgia with my mother's mother, and she's the one that put me through morehouse and the nyu graduate film school. she lived to be 100 years old and she's an art teacher. she taught art for 50 years and the south and for 58 she never had one white student because of segregation, and a lot of white students missed out on a great teacher. anyway, she saved her social security checks for 50 years and used that money to send her grandchildren to c

>> reporter: if you would have told me the giants would score 11 runs tonight with cliff lee starting, i would have taken that all night long. down in the lone star state, the texas rangers get their man, not tonight. the giants get their man. it was a tough start, however for tim lincecum. first inning, just a bullet. back off his lower leg, that knocks in the first run for the rangers. lincecum was able to continue. he had a shaky outing. don't know if that particular hit hurt him, but it didn't matter. the giants explode against cliff lee who has never lost a post season game prior. freddy sanchez with a key double that breaks a 2-2 tie. it continuings from there. aubrey huff in the middle, he, by the way had 3 hits of the that particular rbi single kos lee, but that wasn't the big hit against the ranger's bull pen. uribe deep from the second. that was gone. 3 run blast, the giants take an 8-2 lead and hang on to win it. they had to bring in brian wilson to nail it down. the ranger's loaded lineup did make it semiinteresting in the 9th inning, but san francisco winning. freddy sanchez

commissioner lee: i want to make sure we have full control over the permitting process, there's not another layer. >> no. commissioner lee: if our permitee wants to erect a tent, for instance, the ice skating rink if they want to put up a tent, would that have to go through a separate -- >> no, absolutely not. as a matter of fact, any of the events that originate with the -- if the c.b.d. is aproved and there is an organization that runs it, if they come up with events, they have to go through us for permits. we remain the permitting agency. commissioner lee: and they would get in the same queue as any group wanting to permit they wouldn't have any special relationship or special -- >> it's still our park and we still permit it. president buell: commissioner levitan. commissioner levitan: i think this looks great and is well presented. i know the presentation you gave us doesn't show opposition. is there anybody we can think of who is opposed to this? >> at this pint, it's too early to tell. i haven't heard of any, but that doesn't mean there won't be. we have many public hearings to go thr

i know how hard it is to do all the legwork because you have so many people involved, so i commend mr. hess for his work and the office of work force development. commissioner lee. commissioner lee: regarding commissioner harrison's question, that raised a second question in my mind, with regard to staff who are going to be working for the community benefit district. how are they going to interact with our staff? we have gardening staff, custodial staff and so forth. what is the chain of command, per se, with respect to their duties and the overlap between the two functions? >> with your permission, plcht, i'll try to answer that. the model i think we can look at practically speaking is union square. this arrangement is already in place there as has been previously mentioned. we work with the bid employees that are down there, whether it's m.j.m. or otherwise, that do the ambassador, the custodial and share the -- it's a coordination effort, basically. and it is working in union square currently so i think we can look at that as the model and see it replicated here in civic center. president buell: commissioner harrison. commissioner harrison: do we still have

have the policy available for public review before the next meeting. president buell: so this is a report on the outreach response. >> it is not an action item. it is discussion only. commissioner lee: i am just wondering what the purpose of having the feedback for the policy -- how does that help us as the commission? i would like to see the policy first and then the feedback. right now, we have nothing to compare the back to. >> i presented in july about the type of coverage currently do, which is somewhat ad hoc. the intent was to solicit information and feedback prior to something coming down on high from the department and take that in and incorporate it. >> so you took the existing policy and got the back and what we are going to hear is the result of the process. commissioner lee: but we do not have that. we have the existing policy. >> i am concerned that without reference the feedback, for me as a commissioner, does not have -- has less meaning. president buell: what i am going to recommend is that we repackage this so the commission has a chance to see something before the presentation with your staff report about various comments from the group's and give them a chance to d

have a drug or alcohol problem and they said, no. when i saw that, it reminded me of a great line from david lee roth. i don't have a drug problem.oney. i'm not sure what's going on there. it appears they don't have money and they're kind of rambling around both countries. if they need help psychologically, that they will get it because they may be a danger to themselves or others if they continue to squat. >> make a great point. tony potts, great to see you. thank you. >> thank you. >>> what's topping the news now? that's after a quick break. stay with us.
