. >> i think that's correct but let me talk about the memoranda of understanding. so what at&t agreed to do in the memoranda was to do additional community outreach. and we did that in part because at&t understood that by agreeing to do additional box walk and do mailings that are not required that the city and department would work with us to quote as it's required to do in california law those permit applications and that's not been happened at&t is here redundantly this evening in if those plaques were done in 60 days but those plagues are going on for up to 12 months then denied on a basis that's unlawful neither the hearing officer or director can do and at&t is told to go back and start over that's not what is - excuse me. >> i have a question i see some language in the dpw language that sees the director can denial the hearing officers recommendations. >> i'm not saying the director doesn't have the right to reject the hearing officers recommendation he certainly does but i want to put up with the director is allowed to do so we can look at this together. yo

i think it's important for you the board to understand as part the memoranda of the understanding at&t pays for the entire process we pay important the hearing officer and reimburse the city for the cost to do the review and if the issue is staffing the resources at&t is simply willing to provide the available resources to consultation the hearings. it's not a simple question oh, we have so many permits to overwhelm the department we are reimbursing the staff >> you're paying on a percentage after it goes online or after pled. >> we're in the mou to pay for the officers time. my understanding this isn't simply at&t but common for publics to reimburse the city for all the costs with evaluating the permits but this is a whole schedule of fees that at&t is required to pay i'm sure the department can speak to >> mr. quan. >> evening john quan for the department of public works i've heard from the appellant that they do pay for the direct cost force the department i'll agree it didn't pay for the staff time the issue is trying to schedule a room at city hall in many cases that's been the c

madam chair the vote memoranda in our packets. this is to extend the agreement to allow the successor disposition plan to the drawn. you you'll recall the agency proposed selling the garage it was submittal to the state vice president for approval in november 2013 pursuant to the ignition law they can't sell the garage until it's approved. the property management plan it's still being reviewed. the staff expects six months either to sell the garage or transfer the garage to the city so the city staff can sell the garage. the staff didn't building its appropriate to have another procurement process therefore the staff wants to extend the management agreement for six months with one 12 most extension to june 12, 2014. all others terms of the management agreement remain the same including the fee of one thousand dollars a month and an incentive fee of the 50 percent of the operating income up to a maximum of $10,000 a year today we've not received any fees. the staff recommendation the approval of the first amendment that that conclu

has held more than one hundred meetings around the city for the build out and agreed part of the memoranda to reach out to the neighborhoods. again for at&t the technical requirements those utility exhibits a can't go anywhere but within 3 hundred feet of an existing utility cabinet and >> we're quite aware of the 3 hundred feet from the cabinet but in regards to the notification and giving the public the availability to have proper notification in regards for the cabinet being placed at a location. >> one other thing i want to stress is that not one of those 21 dnldz was made on the basis that proper notification was not given. and len fong appeared at every one of the hearings and told the hearing officer that at&t's application was in corners with the san francisco works act. so if there's no basis on the administrative record to deny those appeals because proper notice wasn't right >> okay. >> okay. no other questions we'll hear from the department mr. fong. >> good evening john fong from the department of public works. the argument from at&t resolves around the water and the second on

let's start with all of these hundreds of pages of the interview memoranda. most i think interesting to people out there who have been following the serial drama that we call it is the interview with the -- or the summary of the governor with himself. a couple things stick out to me. christie says in his recollection with lawyers, after their testimony, and with the increased press attention, the governor recalled someone, though he does not recollect who, relaying that david wildstein had said something along the lines of, i'm not stupid, i got this cleared by the front office." mary, the "this" in that sentence seems to be bridgegate, although the who, in terms of who cleared it, is very much unknown. >> yes. like many of these -- much of the information that came out of this report, it's very incomplete. and it's tantalizing, but we don't know -- we don't have the full interview transcripts, and again, we just have little hints at what might have happened, but this being cleared by the front office would indicate that there was direct political involvement

also in our packets i want to let you know an informational memoranda about senate bill 1404 senator leno has asked for bonding for affordable housing this is bans our sb 2014 for our replacement housing that bill was treed and in our packet is a copy of the bill with a fact seat from senator mark leno that he expect it will be heard by a committee at the end of this month either april 24th or maybe may 7 we'll keep you apprised. and finally, i wanted to you heard in the budget presentation that filling staff positions we've got two new staff ray mom and dad lee and jeff white who commissioner singh remembers is a houser commission is returning to us after working with bank of america he'll be returning as as project manager on monday. we'll make sure to introduce them to you but we're excited to be staffing up that concludes my report >> thank you very much. lots of >> can i ask a question. >> sure, yes senator bill 1404 will pep help to build the housing obligation were we smiled a request with the department of finance that's pending they've asked a number of questions and certain

homes trying to clear the land for mining companies to whom the government has signed hundreds of memorandaf understanding. outside the forest, this is also happening. there is a kind of war which, of course, always existed in india. >> since when? >> since independence, since 1947. and now the plan is to deploy them, now it is the paramilitary but this new election is going to be who is the person the corporate shoes who is not going -- corporates choose who's not going to blink about to play in the indian army against the poorest people in this country and pushing them out to give over those lands, those rivers, mountains to the major mining corporations. this is what we are being prepared for now. the air force, army, going in to the heart of india now. >> one of the operations you spoke about his operation green hunt. could you explain what that is, when it started, and who it targets? inoperation green hunt -- 2004, the current government signed a series of memorandums of understanding with a number of mining corporations and infrastructure development companies to build dams and do mi

josh, let's start with the memoranda, the impressions, the mental watercolors that have been painted the viewing public. according to randy mastro's report, christie had no specific recollections of conversations with baroni and wildstein, especially on the 11th when he said he talked to chris christie about bridgegate. but he remembers other things, including this, which defies explanation. before the 9/11 memorial event began, the governor recalled that mrs. christie asked to use a bathroom and david wildstein directed her to a large white port authority trailer. she went into the van and then exited saying that there was no bathroom in the trailer. a female port authority police department officer who was possibly baroni's driver, then took mrs. christie to the bathroom. otherwise, mrs. christie was with him for the entire event. how is it that you do remember about your wife being guided to the wrong ladies' room? >> i think the details on where mrs. christie went to the restroom is really an important thing. there were probably a thousand dollars of legal fees. >> just for that

but there are notes, memoranda notes of those interviews. committee, looking for those. and we are also examining the various alternatives that we have -- based upon the judge's ruling that came out yesterday. >> so, could i just stop you. the transcripts issue. that was what interested me right from the start of the, that emergency of the investigation. i said on day one. show me the transcripts of your taped interviews. assuming that if these are real interviews, you tape them, and you have transcripts. you have both. no transcripts does that mean there are no tapes. and we have nothing but handwritten notes. by people who are in the room? >> as far as i know, through our lawyers talking to the -- the randy mastro lawyers that is the fact. there are no tapes. no transcripts. and i said after my original reading of this so-called report, that it sounded like a defense attorney summing up before a jury. it is so filled with gaps, with information missing, that i hardly -- as i said, there are some people who describe it as an investigation.

from the master law firm there's a statement that, quote, it's customary to summarize interviews in memorandaather than transcribe or tape them. is that accurate? >> yes, that's the standard course. that's how the fbi does it. you know, lawyers are control freaks. we like to control the flow of information. this way there's no record, even what the people who are interviewed is told is this is our recollection. this is the way we lawyers are going to cast what you say. this isn't a verbatim transcript. >> so in terms of the public's standpoint, the credibility of the report, when the public can't examine the transcribing and make its own judgments and is left to reading the memos the master firm produced, what is the value then of this report? does that -- does that reduce the value from the public's standpoint? >> it does reduce the value to the public, but it increases the value to governor christie. remember, the people who did this are wearing two hats. on the one hand they're supposed to be doing this supposedly objective investigation because the taxpayers of new jersey are spending a m

they looked at more than 6 million classified memoranda and records from within the agency, and that accounted for 99-plus percent of the material that they examined for this inquiry. >> woodruff: but do these kinds of concerns expressed by unnamed c.i.a. officials undermine in some way the credibility of the report? >> well, i mean, i think that's -- i think we're going to see a lot of that going forward because none of this has been released publicly so far. at best, we're probably going to see an executive summary that's several hundred pages long released to the public several weeks or months away, and they're already sort of jockeying over how this report is going to be received, so there will be efforts to discredit it and to point out, you know, maybe there's an f.b.i. bias here, there's criticism of the committee because they didn't interview or speak with any c.i.a. officials, it's based exclusively on documentary evidence, so you will see that line of attack. >> woodruff: what is going to determine how much of this is released to the public? >> well, i think that comes to t

the interview memoranda are out. >>> and the troubles for camp christie could go well beyond traffic"now." >> i have no estimate on when this will be behind me because i don't get to decide. >> breaking news. district attorney cyrus vance jr. has issued a subpoena last month for records from the port authority of new york of new jersey. >> we have the new york federal prosecutor and the new jersey federal prosecutor all working a piece of the case. it sounds like there's something here. >> on the part of mr. wildstein and ms. kelly, some type of nefarious, inappropriate motivation. >> david wildstein who was tossed under the bus by the governor and by his staff, has become an enemy now of governor christie. >> why don't you just get to the question, cut the commentary back a little. >> if anybody is going to do damage, it's going to be david wildstein. >> the political context in this is that chris christie is very much hoping to resume his political career. >> i have no estimate on when this will be behind me because i don't get to decide. >> it sounds like this c

claim more of his personal writings which did not include the vast collection of incoming mail and memoranda that went to lincoln went to work enormously valuable. no one got to see those until 1947. because they carry the collected works and because they decided which pieces of his riding or in part by including them in that book they effectively became the curators of what other historians would consult. so in the decades after their wrote this people who look to lankan tended to look at his early life because that's where you could scour up additional resources. ida tarbell in the early 1900's working with the magazine went on a hunt for early lincoln memorial. they thought this was hilarious. there editor said, look at this. a female editors got to try and research lincoln as if she could possibly do this. she turned up all kinds of written materials to marley speeches, letters, things that had been long lost to history. this is where scholars up until the 1940's were able to break new ground. the documents for all shut off other than what they had written and copy in their book or their

who stole over $1 million of taxpayer money, this and other failings are detailed in a series of memoranda issued by my committee staff which i would like to enter into the record at this time. this memorandum exposes an indisputeable time line that raises questions not just about john beal but about e.p.a. in january 2011, ms. mccarthy was informed that beal had been receiving erroneous bonus payments but actually elevated his salary above a statutory cap. and was advised by her human resources staff and legal counsel to cancel the bonus. instead, she deferred to an e.p.a. official equal to her in rank at the time allegedly because of uncertainty over beal's c.i.a. status. however, a senior e.p.a. official directly informed ms. mccarthy that there were no c.i.a. employees at e.p.a. while it appears ms. mccarthy believed the matter was closed when beal announced his retirement, in may 2011, she learned in march 2012 that beal had not retired and in fact collected full pay plus the legal retention bonus of $42,768. ms. mccarthy took no action against beal for nearly a year after this. final

and as i understand it, the memoranda of understanding has not been finalized. what is the status of the memorandum between irs, hhs? when would you expect it to be finalized? why hasn't there been an annual report as required by law? and when can congress expect the 2013 report? >> we have been working cooperatively with hhs. we expect not a memorandum of understanding but written final confirmation from them about the process we're going to use going forward. the problem with timing is it takes two to three years for all of the data to be filed. so the 2011 data has now been made public by hhs. we expect to provide jointly as we, because our data is going to measure with theirs. the hospitals all ask for us to use apples to apples data. so we will earlier this summer, this summer we will be issuing to the congress a report for 2011 because that is the timing which we actually get the final data and then every year thereafter we will provide that report on an annual basis jointly with hhs. so the data for 2011 is already public from hhs's side. we're collecting
