are there still time limits? >> there are. four our time limits or sometimes in no time limits. in other parts of the city it is one or two hours. we have been giving all of the meter configurations. one of the cool things is when you pay, if you add an hour of time, 10 minutes before, it will text you and ask would you like to add time? you can do that remotely. that is convenient for people in meetings or running errands. it is exciting. other cities have done that. it makes for a better experience. commissioner riley: is all the information on the web site? >> sf park.org. we have done the best to share all that we can. policies, and details about the project, there is also a book we put together for a conference. we hosted a conference of -- most of the big cities wanted to review the lessons learned. so we put a book together and a pds is available on our site -- pdf is available on our site. president o'brien: anything else? thank you. that was a wonderful presentation. thank you for bringing that before us. next item. >> item 10, a discussion of action to make recommendat

>> i think the most significant problem that has to be corrected is term limits. people are elected for narrow periods of time and they are lawmakers. and they make a lot of silly laws. but the problem is there is no time in grade. we don't have staff now in sacramento that's worthy of the responsibilities we expect them to have. as long as we have people who do not understand the mr. equal process and are not moved by a broader understanding of government, it's over. you can't do it. and you know in 2006 we passed $40 billion in bonds in legislature all required republican votes. they weren't tax increases but republicans were voting to spend money. we got them because we got a coalition of interests from home builders to business people to the labor movement to work on the problem. it's not impossible but everybody has to be pulling the same direction. you're going to see a continuing demise of strong legislative leaders in the future. because the only way a legislator can lead is if people want to be led and right no they don't. >> i have to agree for what don

seawall lot 21 has a 60-foot height limit, so remaining parcels have a 40-foot limit, those along the embarcadero. what 322-1 is set back several blocks closer to the residential neighborhood. it has the greatest density potential for affordable housing. it is about a little less than an acre. it is in the ne waterfront historic district. the waterfront land use plan contemplates a residential use as one of its potential for array of uses at the site. it was previously contemplated as a hotel development site, and that project did not go forward. we currently earn about $50,000 a month from the site. almost $600,000 a year. so we wanted to present to you the following policy options for your consideration. and seek your permission to go and have this policy conversation with our advisory groups so we can talk to our neighbors about this and also the mayor's office of housing. one idea is to amend the city's jobs-housing linkage ordinance to allow the port to not just pay a fee but to provide land for affordable housing. that would be a different option and would potentially make avail

instead of a permanent limitation. the committee agreed to that change. the next quote from the s.a.p., "section 1035 conflicts with the consensus-based interagency approach to detainee reviews required under executive order number 13-567, which establishes procedures to ensure that periodic review decisions are informed by the most comprehensive information and considered views of all relevant agencies" -- close quote. mr. president, section 1035 does not conflict with the executive order of the interagency review process established in the executive order. rather, it requires the issuance of procedures to implement the review process required by the executive order. the executive order states that a gitmo detainee will not be released if the interagency process results in a unanimous recommendation against release. executive order states that a gitmo detainee will be released if the interagency process results in a unanimous recommendation for release. but it is silent as to what happens if the process does not resul

members of the public, public comment will be limited to three minutes. if you could please >> hi, my name is crystle mason. i have been a dog walker for about five years. i guess one of the main points i would like to make is that i think there definitely needs to be more time taken in getting this legislation together, because while i agree with the objective to sort of weed out the bad dog walkers, as this legislation stands, and because of the vagueness and because of some of the things that are not some vague, i think it stands a chance of weeding out a lot of good dog walkers and will no longer be able to afford to do this job. i think the legislation needs to be clear. i will also say that i think the eight dog limit is more feasible than seven or six, because i know for myself, if i could only do seven dogs, it would cost me maybe $700 a month, and i think that there needs to be an impact study on the cost of this legislation to dog walkers but also to owners, because, you know, we are going to have to pass some of these costs on to owners, so i t

>> there was limited physical resources, limited food, so it's difficult to say that death was selected for but i think we can say that long life was not an advantage. so evolutions did not select us to live a long time. >> does death make sense from a darwinian perspective? >> there have been arguments that people dying, you know, after child-rearing would free up resources for the young. we don't have proof of that. i think what we can say is that long life was not selected for because there was no evolutionary advantage to reproduction for long life. >> can you say that death is an aid to evolution if it allows new gene expressions better adapted to the environment to come into being? >> well -- >> but that doesn't happen, does it? >> let me put it this way -- there's no one aging and death process. there's many different processes going on and they all evolve at different rates. and we're beginning to learn them, one very important one is the process that leeth toater sclerosis leading to premature death for millions. we're learning the information processes underlying that and lear

does that affect the statute of limitations? >> there is a federal statute of limitations but it hasn't run yet. if the allegations happened in 2002, 2003. >> i think there's a chance they haven't run yet. >> that's right. >> that's the thing. we don't know exactly when these alleged actions took place. if they were in the '80s, even the federal statute has run. but if they were 2002, 2003 there's a chance for federal prosecution. >> that's right, that's right. >> and it does seem, jeff, one of the tragedies here is that a number of people seem to have known about these allegations for year, the university, the police, espn, the local newspaper, but no one could or did put it together because they seem to have different pieces of the puzzle? >> that's what's so maddening about this story. is if the cops had the espn tape or if -- there were individual pieces of very apparently incriminating evidence, but no one entity had enough information. >> i also don't understand why the first accuser, if he had this tape which he apparentl

the essence is the statute of limitations bars my client from pursuing the appeal. that is under government could -- code 65009, which has a strict 90-day limitation, which we agree does not apply in the case where there is a constitutional violation, or the original use is illegal. that is set forth in a case, a 1987 case, and we have since reviewed that case. also, and is not a bar. the leading case with the statute of limitations dealing with santa cruz, cited in both breeds, and in the travis case, they did allow an exception under 65009, where the homeowner it did file within 90 days after the decision had been made, the final decision had been made. it is our position here that the final decision for which my client is appealing, the decision under the penalty. which was issued by the zoning administrator. we have complied with that 90- day requirement, and we suggest that the endeavor to see a case tried on its merit, and in this case, we saw a request that the matter be considered on its merits. vice president garcia: sir? >> yes. vice president garcia: how

simple me to rates but a very short time limits of 60 minutes. those time limits can be inconvenient and do not result in the kind of outcome we're looking for. we are zeroing in on the goal of turnover which is the availability of open spaces. that is what customers want for small businesses. by moving in on that availability target, we have lange and time limits moving away from turnover and using smarter rates and prices at the meter to zero in on that availability target. to use the lowest price possible so that we make it so the drivers have at least one space available. better information for drivers about where to find parking. we want to match drivers up with a parking spot quickly. part of that is real time information. there is an iphone application now available. this is a foot of -- federally funded demonstration. my apologies for the size but the marina, fisherman's wharf, downtown. this is an overview of the status and its accomplishments so far. in 2010, when installed all of the new meters as well as parking centers. in april, we
