first of all, thank you, mr. moran, a president. it was nice of you to spend some time with me giving me some ideas about how to work with you. congratulations to the new president, the new vp. commissioner moran asked if we can move our chc meeting to the third tuesday of the month which we did last month to try to better accommodate giving feedback to the commission. so, last month we actually moved it, had to cancel it due to the debate, but november 20th we're having our next meeting. commissioner courtney and commissioner vietor asked if we give input on the community choice aggregation about how best to reach out to some of the non-english speaking community. and we've had -- we had a presentation in the power subcommittee. todd vestrom is going to talk about that and talk about the powers the community have under item 13. we also in our next meeting are going to have further discussions with the puc et presenting as well as the department of the environment about possible ways that we can better reach out about the program. a

mr. moran and i talked about moving the meeting. i don't think there will be a big objection. we don't want to be seen as a stop light. but a way to gain input from the community. we have one vacancy that has been vacant for 18 months, the mayor's large water appointment and it's been difficult. we put a few people forward. i think there are a lot of conflicts in anyone who has any business before the cpuc or the sfpuc is oftentimes conflicted out. we have a couple people that might fill that vacancy. i made a couple changes. we formed a new subcommittee, which is going to be headed by alex landsburg. he's going to not meet every month, but have a quarterly meeting and kind of look at those issues that are very important to the community. replacing, he was the wastewater subcommittee chair and he's being replaced by javier pruit hill, who is a recent appointee and the water commit, david pillpel will be heading the water committee. i'm sure you will have lots of procedural comments that will come out of that committee. it will be good to have new blood come out of that committ

mr. bryant. >> president moran and board members, first of all, this is a great building. i want to, you know, i didn't come here to speak on the building. over time, i have always asked why it wasn't being used. as somewhat younger employee in the city and county of san francisco. i was taken out to that location by none other than leeroy king and met alex pitcher, whose office it was at one time. i said this to many folks, this is a, he gives me a chance to get it and i'm buying it. i'm glad the p.u.c. is now reconsidering it. and i just wanted to say that if you do reclaim it, let's not just consider that alex pitcher has a room over an 1800 oak dale, but let's consider alex pitcher being an institution there and at one time it was water department. i guess. d.p.w. >> yeah. so, i ask that you pass this measure and please, do not hesitate to pass this measure. this is a great buy. thank you. >> my lip reading was failing me on that. okay. any other public comment? seeing none. we have a motion and second. all in favor. aye. >> oppose? >> the item carries unanimously. >>

>> mr. moran. >> the changes are relatively minor, addresses one of them, the order of business that was in the rules of order were changed sometime ago, but we didn't bother changing the rules of order to reflect that. that has been changed. there was a change in law about noticing for rate changes. so, that's been conformed. we don't actually operate by roberts rules of order. we operate by our own rules of order, which are much simpler. it gives the chair a great deal of authority to do whatever seems best at the time. and we do everything by resolution. >>> and the other question would be whether or not you would be moving your meeting time to 5 25, you know, not meeting here. >> meetings will still be here. >> i think ms. jackson is addressing -- dr. jackson is expressing rule 7 where we had in your rules basically, we had special meetings at 1155 market. we are now moving to 5 25 market or another place -- >>> 5 25 golden gate. >> golden gate, sorry, thank you. 5 25 golden gate or in other p

. >> i'm not even thinking of this young mr. moran. y having a privately recorded conversation. mr. mourdock is making a statement in a debate, public forum, the candidate for senate. >> and as well when you talk about, for example, veterans' issues, the president openly, directly in the last dealt with the need to provide more jobs, counseling, health care as well as training for our veterans coming back from iraq and afghanistan. but all veterans, no matter which war or when. i think that kind of real issue really matters to people in the swing states but also across the country. and i think that the economic issues will be dominant. >> let me ask a question of john berman. he did a funny -- people talk about distractions, which is the thing you don't want to talk about, the looming discussion. do you think he's correct that this is, john, a distraction, this tape from james o'keefe, known to do these hit jobs and run around and do that kind of stuff? >> i don't think it's a distraction in virginia. >> how about nationally? >> i don't

mr. obama picked up a big endorsement today from colin powell, but powell insists he's still a republican. >>> arlington county opened a criminal investigation into voter fraud after an indent involving congressman jim moran's son. >> 23-year-old patrick moran resigned as a campaign field director after he was seen on an undercover video discussing illegal voting. peggy fox joins us live with the latest. >> that's right. in that video posted by a conservative activist patrick moran tried several times to discourage the undercover activist from following through with his so-called voter fraud plan, but then moran offers the man specific ways to skirt virginia's new voter identification law. patrick moran is seen in this video first trying to dissuade the man from committing voter fraud. >> try like make sure that it went through without a hitch. >> then after a while moran offers suggestions how to skirt the voter id law. >> 100 people don't vote. he's looking for two guys to help him. >> utility bills or something like that. he'll need bills. he'll need something with a name and their address on it. >> fairfax county republican chair jay mcconville says those concerned about voter fraud should find the vide
