. >> thank you commissioner moore. >> mr. sanchez isn't it stronger being part of the administrative cody hear it more as a board policy statement when someone reads accident admin code it ripples through all kinds of things. >> we believe it's stronger in the admin code it fits better there than in the planning code for a number of reasons. >> commissioners there's a we have a motion and a second to adapt the recommendation for approval with all of the elements and commissioner antonini. >> commissioner borden. >> commissioner moore. commissioner sugaya. commissioner president wu. so moved, commissioners, that motion passes that is proved unanimously 5 to zero >> commissioners that will place us on item 11 the 2013 downtown mortgaging report an informational presentation. >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm here to present a highlight from the 2013 monitoring report. so i mentioned this is the annual update which garters data from a variety of different resources from the downtown c-3 h that is the red area in some sections

> good afternoon, supervisors, rich haas, resident and business commission and support kathrin moore and mr. richards. the planning commission is by far the most time consuming commission in the city. it's not just the thursday hearing. it could have 10 items, 14. any amount of items. on friday you get your brief for each item. that's a lot of reading, a lot of research, site visits, locations, visiting with neighbors. catherine has done this for eight years and shhh e wants to do this for another term. kudos to kathrin moore. it's a lot of work here. kathrin moore as an architect brings a fairness to this commission. we've worked with her for many years. whether it's neighborhood issues, citywide planning, she's excellent in these neighborhoods and understanding the planning codes with all the new amendments, that takes a huge amount of time and understanding. her urban planning. as talked about earlier she was in treasure island, all of this stuff. it's easy to be a paid person to get a salary, but when you volunteer and spend the time, to any commissioner, i say well done. her knowledge

mr. abdullah moore, although dr. rah san jane has talked about it the issue of fraud with regard to the election. how to deal with this issue and how it has been dealt with, what are the potential risks of not dealing with it appropriately? what are some possible ways that the challenges associated with this problem could be overcome? in my judgment there are two processes that are going on simultaneously. one is the formal process. he electoral process that -- there is obviously as you all know, two institutions that are responsible for managing the electoral process. one is the independent election commission. created by law. and the other one is the complaint commission that they both are responsible in the formal process. the dr. ion is, that abdullah has judged that he does not -- have confidence in their work. and as disengaged from that process and there is a need for steps and there are issues under consideration and discussions going on. there was some progress made with the help of the united ations that i

mr. butler i'm trying to pick up where commissioner moore left off i'm going to see if we can't graft something. first of all, in regards to the separation i'm looking at the picture there is a separation between the upper most unit and the second unit the walkway down to the cottage and what's the wealthy of this separation >> i believe it's 3 and a half feet. >> okay. i also have a separation on the extreme west side between our lowest unit and that is referred to as the cottage but the next house how big is that you 3 feet. >> i'm suggesting do you is that the very at least combining moving both of those as opposed to the extreme lowest end as ms. christianson said that will create a corridor you'll have the stairs to access the cottage from the west side and then walk across the gasped to get into the cottage that would be something that could be done and my second question is what is the current wealthy of each of your units now commissioner moore was talking about 23 feet what's our width now. >> 25. >> 25, thirty and 34 are what it is now. >> they vary a little bit depending on the numbe

mr. moore explained why conservation easements are important. quote, open space is really about the next generation. we preserve this land because we love it and want to share it and the tax benefits from easement donations make it more feasible for us to do that, end quote. this language encludes some from a bill i have been working to get passed, we have over 200 co-sponsors in the house this session. for anybody to see that kind of consensus here in washington, d.c. is note worthy indeed. i believe the conservation easement incentive enjoys broad bipartisan support in washington because it works in our communities. therefore, that's why i'm urging our colleagues to support this legislation today to provide property owners with the freedom, the opportunity and the certainty they deserve when making critical choices about the future of their land. i thank the chairman for yielding and i wreeled back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. the gentleman from michigan reserves. the gentleman from michigan is re

moore: mr. davis, that was very confusing to me and i will take my seat but i wanted clarification on that. the earned income tax credit, which is a benefit provided to ordinary americans through the tax code, we are required to eviscerate programs like meals on wheels for elders, through the social services block grant, to get rid of maybe some of the low income heating programs that heat homes and places -- in places like chicago that are cold, in order to pay for an expansion of the earned income ax credit but the $618 billion in tax cuts which were deseened to be just temporary, and you guyed -- guys made permanent the other day, the only way -- i guess -- not giving unemployment compensation to people. mr. davis: let's say the majority on the committee made it permanent because we voted, that is, those of us who are democrats, we all voted against it and that's why i think it's so important that we are here this evening. i just simply want to again commend mr. pocan for taking the leadershi

moore. >> i have two questions. one for mr. lindsey. we have a permitted non compliance project, the signage and the agreements about the signage still would have to meet today's, do i understand that's correct? >> yeah, the signage would have to be consistent with article 6 of the planning code. >> so assuming that's a signage would be too large or too much light. it would be modified to today's -- >> any new signage, yes. the signage just to be clear, the signage is not apart of this conditional use. >> i know that. i want to make sure there's not an agreement that can be challenged by your authority to review the signage when it comes forward. the second question is for mr. steinberg. i'm delighted to see the neighborhood is actively involved. can you talk about the suggestion of the change in material and that being beneficial and supportive of the basic idea of your design? >> you're talking about the whole facade. >> i'm talking about the request for wood verses metal and what that means to you relative to what would you recommend

mr. alan schwartz, who was joining us by phone. text michael moore, you have covered financials. you have covered wall street. talk to us about his history, his legend. he built the sperm from a very small firm into a huge force on wall street. was a significantly smaller firm when he took over, and became one of the giants in investment banking. one thing that is somewhat unique is, after he gave up the ceo title, he stuck around for another 20 years. that is something we rarely see, that someone sticks with the firm. he was there not just for his specific tenure, but over a much longer time. where wallink about street currently is, i think he would fit in as an executive now, because so much of the focus is on cost-cutting, and that was one of his big things, was keeping costs low. he used to tell employees to turn off the lights when they left, you know? i think that attention to detail would be very welcome right now. >> he was ceo for a long time. it was a very changing world when he was there. >> and he got into new businesses. investment banking had not been historically m

moore: thank you so much, mr. chair. i tell you, mr. chair, if obamacare, affordable care act, so the called obamacare, is the ultimate tempest for the tea party pot, then i guess the consumer financial protection bureau, the cfpb, is a very, very close second. since assuming the majority in 2010, house republicans have passed the bill -- has passed bill after bill to gut and undermine the consumer financial protection bureau. frankly, i have just lost track of all the bills and attempts of the majority to undermine our nation's top financial consumer watchdog. it's well documented that congress wanted its funding to be free of political influence when it created the bureau. in order to protect the consumers it needed to be free of political influence. so, mr. chairman, my amendment strikes the provision in the financial services appropriations bill, section 501, that the house is considering today, as it is nothing more than yet another effort by the majority to derail the consumer financial protection bureau from its mission to protec

mr. speaker. i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back. the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from wisconsin, for ive minutes. ms. moore: thank you so much he, mr. speaker. i rise today in support of the export-import bank. the official being export credit agency of the united states of america. mr. speaker, it is so frustrating to see this normally bipartisan effort to support the american economy get hijacked. i would bet, mr. speaker, that this bill could pass on suspension, that 2/3 of this house will be willing to re-authorize the ex-im bank if we were to put it on a vote on this floor. no, instead we are forced once again to yield to a minority of the majority, the tea party, anch demands decapitation of economic development and jobs creator giant. the united states of america's export-import bank. why is this? is it because the bank doesn't work? no. it is an example of house government effectively can partner with the private sector. the bank puts u.s. exporters on equal footings with foreign competitors as foreign export aid and bridges the gap in the private market. the reality is is that in the global market

moore, is recognized. >> thank you, mr. chair. let me make an opening statement given the last exchange between one of our colleagues and mrs. gaines-turner with regard to dependency. just recently -- and friday we are going to be working on yet another tax extender where apparently we are going to tax $614 billion in extenders on a permanent -- make them permanent and put usinesses on a permanent welfare. these bills -- the latest, the bonus depreciation, was temporary in nature to stimulate the economy. as you remember, targeted, temporary and timely was what we tried to do to stimulate the economy. but yet they want to add $287 billion to the deficit. i want to put this in the record with your permission, mr. chairman, just to clear that up. >> without objection. >> i also want to clear some other things up, without objection. clear some other things up about the -- because i feel like we've had great testimony from all three of you, but the conversation was sort of trying to steer some of our witnesses into saying that they're

>> commissioner moore kate stacey from the city attorney's office i don't know the provocation this is not my understanding based on what happened but i could look at the documents. >> mr. ruben would know 33 he was obviously representing this project are you familiar with what i'm asking. and i mean, if i can help clarify >> this is a question that the representative of the project will be better able to address. >> as i understand one of the representatives of the telegraph hill dwellers approached scott sanchez at the planning department we were advised by liz we communicated amongst ourselves and communicated with liz approach which is to effectively abandon any benefit of the variance and return the cottage before the variance was issued and scott agreed that would not require any action so we thought we were done we had a condition of approve it only reduce the use of the cottage so be it. >> mr. rubbing benefit i'm not trying to trap you but we're sitting in a crossfire of this happened and perhaps it happened we're here to make a decision just look at the facts and say what happened so we can understand it. >> the zoning motivate has returned to the room and pe

mr. deas. before i give you a question i want to thank glenn moore for her leadership. she and i have worked together to try to get that issue fixed. can you tell me what will happen if we don't actually get that bill fix today. [inaudible question] no there are no action letters. there have been some regulatory relief but what happens if we don't actually get that past for end-users like you? >> it will increase, so it increases the uncertainty of the end-user margin exemption to the extent that those transactions would be ineligible for the exemption. the post cash margin would subtract from money we would otherwise invest in our business. >> would you continue to manage your risk in a centralized way that smarter and allows you to offset the risks or would you move to a less active form of risk management? >> we would have to do that in a different way with uncertain cost or retain the risk ourselves. either way would likely cause an increase in costs. >> and the risk for your business. the next question i have for mr. kubiak. i think it's really important to hit it

moore: thank you so much for that clarification, mr. jeffries. so this doesn't pass a constitutional test, it doesn't pass the legal test. and it doesn't even pass the laugh test. because i can tell you, for folk who have sued -- who have pursued repeal of the affordable care act for over 50 times, not wanting to implement the employer mandate, to turn around and say, we've been injured because the president delayed it does not pass the laugh test. i tell you, i have been elected to and served as a public servant since 1988. and i can tell you that republicans have continuously chastised democrats for their frivolous lawsuits. republicans have continuously claimed that people who have been injured by products, consumer products, should have a cap on their claims. d yet this frivolous lawsuit will cost hundreds of millions of dollars. so, while it may not have any standing, mr. jeffries, it certainly will -- it certainly will cost hundreds of millions of dollars before that ruling will be made. as a matter of fact, in this do-nothing congress, we
