>> i was not with the city at that time. >> the relationship between the city and the redevelopment agency, those were transactions that ad market value. direct sales, not a competitive sale to an agency that is not the city and then the redevelopment agency engages in their process to secure the housing developer. some that have been completed, some underway. >> how were those nonprofits selected? i assume that the previous process went through this. >> the initial transfer of those parcels that were sold to the redevelopment agency were not done through the public solicitation process. i believe that the redevelopment agency goes through the solicitation process an order to partner with developers on a case by case this basis. >> i know that this is not a frequent occurrence, the city has parcels of land. i believe that we don't have enough parcels. i'm wondering if we have a process by which we go through planning for land and how we go through deciding who we sell the land too. >> as i mentioned earlier, this is a departure from our normal process. this is not by code that our process

many of our nonprofits are not getting enough support from the city. even though they're getting grants. many people do not know what the left hand and the right-hander doing. many do not know if their clients are being served by their agency and five other agencies. there is no database that tracks. as far as what i would like to see, i am involved with the lgbt community partnership and we focus on serving people with disabilities as well as aging and what i would like to see is a congregant meal program at the center. because i would feel welcome there. i will not feel welcome going to a religious oriented facility that is providing meals. as a lesbian, and raised catholic, i was never welcomed in that community. i wish you would address that for our community. supervisor elsbernd: thank you. i have been a queer activists for 40 years and counting. i was part of the liberation front in philadelphia. i am proud to say that we stopped aversion therapy on gay men in philadelphia. i have been on the front lines of many battles in the clear community over

we have a meeting with the representative from the city of portland. even they did not have the study. where money is being transferred for food, and these specific cases. there are more facilities operating in front of city hall. the business appears to be doing well. these eateries, they did not appear to be losing any business at this point. at least not from a cursory review. president goh: the observations seems to me to beg the question. we don't have very many options right across the street, but in the financial district, there are many options on any given block. >> the department to recognize that. and we review when applicants apply for areas that are congested. we would make certain recommendations as to the possibility and whether the department will support the application. in many cases, it cannot reject or deny an application. >> and it has like food, we have seen the pictures in the menus. would that change the outcome? >> my understanding was that it was not present during the directors hearing. given that information, it could be -- at the hearing off

unemployment rate in our cities will only come down as not only the national unemployment rate comes down but also targeted strategic investment in cities to get things done. the real question is what is congress doing or what do they think they're doing when millions of americans are out of work, bridges, roads, highways, schools, waterfront, airports, job creators. we know this. a nonpartisan issue for 50 years. >> what specifically in your city would you like to see done that congress could approve sooner rather than later? >> huge project for us is seven miles of waterfront on the delaware that extends from below center city up through the northeast. that would revitalize not only that part of the city but a major attraction all across the region. it will put thousands and thousands of people to work. we used federal dollars to do any number of projects whether it's computing centers to freedom rings partnership, we used our funding for that. the program that is being cut represents jobs and economic opportunity in cities all across america. the most direct flexible funding that t

the port does not share a budget with the city. they cannot collect any tax revenue. they do not have any taxing authority. the port lives and dies by the revenue it generates on the port property. >> how is the ferry building doing in terms of creating revenue? >> it has been phenomenally successful. we are fully leased. the active merchants are incredibly happy to be part of the vibrant community. >> this is one of the most see places in san francisco. anybody who comes here from out of town, you have to walk through the ferry building. >> there are a lot of visitors here. definitely a lot of locals, too, who feel strongly about the connection to the marketplace. >> you were mentioning that this is pierre -- pier 14. >> first, it was a brick water for the downtown ferry terminal, constructed in 2001. after that, we added public access on top of it and connected it to the land side. now is eight 637-foot-long public access pier to enjoy the day, watched the very activity. there is a little bit of art on top of it. there are swivel chairs on a it and there are little s

city of the 100%. we are partnering closely with code for america. we would not be a tech organization without a website. our url is sfciti.com. with the headquarters city of twitter, it would be heresy not to have a twitter handle. #sfciti. with that, i want to introduce our great mayor, mayor ed lee. [applause] >> thank you for that very detailed explanation. first of all, i want to thank the board of supervisors. they are my partners here. president david chiu, you and i, jane kim, have spoken, mark farrell, christine olague, have spoken in depth about what our future holds for us. i want you to know that i am sharing this excitement with them. we have a constituent that is in great need. i am going to take a page from what willie brown has always represented to me. he said as good advice, if you feel passionate about something, don't did there. move on it fast. i cannot think of an initiative -- it has not even been one week since i took the oath of this elected office, and here we are on the first friday, moving this and what the technology really like, an a

not used to. it has been in the city before. the police department had it. it is not completely new for them to implement it. they have failed to implement it and consider the factors that they have heard. have you all heard what the officers told you tonight and as you have noted, we do not have a record of the hearing officer, what she did, and how she weighed things. another interesting thing that was mentioned is that we should allow this conditionally approved a permit to go for because we can always revoke it. it is not the purpose of issuing permits and going through a process where you involve the public and have a protest hearings to say, we are going to let this happen. and then we will decide to revoke it. the purpose of this program and the oversight exercise is to identify the impact of front and come up with conditions to address them or decide that the permit was not proper to be issued at this location. they have other locations and that is what this portrait modify the permit to take away v.k.'s right to be at 50 cal. it is not my understandi

[applause] >> any other members of the public that would like to comment? anyone else who would like to comment, please come forward. >> hi. well, let me start here, i definitely believe that let me give you some of the things i recommend your do. first of all, -- >> could you please identify yourself? >> i am charles. i would recommend you have the team masterly several apartment buildings. the mou process is not currently working. some of the housing have ability programs. the other thing is we need to definitely think about how the stability of these housings. hopefully that is a piece of legislation you will create to make laws more stricter when people move into housing. i am also thinking about -- i think the case managers at these places need specialized training so they will be able to help people get into housing and where the housing is, and how to navigate the process. i think i was given a housing application that was pretty much as big as this b

they are not meeting their housing requirement, which is going to fall in the city budget. they're not meeting the traffic issues which is going to fall on the responsibility of the city. they're not meeting the healthcare needs of the community or jobs. president chiu: thank you. if there are any other members of the public that wish to speak in public comment, please line up now. >> mr. president, members of the board, my name is brad paul, as somebody who spent 40 years working in the tenderloin and south of market, i have seen, as you have, and see every day, the need for psyche beds in this city. cpmc is systematically reduced and eliminated psyche beds at st. luke's and i have not heard unless i am mistaken that there are any psyche beds in the current proposal. i hope you will not take this proposal seriously until you start hearing about larger numbers of psyche beds in their facilities because if they don't do it, that burden is going to fall more and more on san francisco general and the other hospitals and you see the need for these beds every day as you walk arou

now it's a fun city but it's not nice anymore do you agree. russia is not russia moscow is not a nice this but it is a fun thank you thank you very much very much for me with a just to remind that that my guest on the show today was left the director kevin institute for advanced russian studies and that's it for now from all of us here if you want to have your sound spotlight or have someone in mind so you think i spent the next time to drop me a line that probably don't add to deduct for you and let's keep the share interactive spotlight will be back with more comments on what's going on in an abstract russia until then they are to take it thank you ed. it's not about spilling blood. just a war of the barricades from one side and fears blockade from the other. invisible border has cut people from the land for twelve year. the conflict that divided serbia into two hostile parts is still not over. the ripples of tensions on the partisan gulf and now being felt worldwide as all that france's have jumped in response to

there are a lot of lots that have city car share in them. >> i do not think that we have talked to the city car share. there might be ways where the parking lots, if they are secure, they don't have to be attended. they can have the car shares of its unsecured, that might be away. commissioner adams: two more questions. my other question, instead of hiring a security guard, what a>> we had a meeting in supervisor chiu's office, and there are a number of entertainment venue holders, and at that meeting they expressed more than interested - -of an i -- more of an interest in staffing. commissioner adams: my final question, ouare city lots subject to this? >> no. commissioner adams: the reason i am saying that, a l halfot -- bwe have a lot behind the castro theater. we have gates and everything, it keeps getting smashed down and i would like to know from your office, they are 24 hours for the most part. we try to limit the hours and we have had problems. the city is going to make private owners do this, why doesn't the city require it for their own lot? the marina is 24 hours. a lot of th

so the comparative dom particular policy program works primarily in the 25 cities that doug mentioned, but not exclusively in those cities. we really are looking for some of the best practices in education and workforce development, in integration of diverse populations and affordability and quality of life issues in cities and regions and also -- and sustainability, in which encompasses a broad range of things. it's primarily environmental sustainability. the overarching theme which i think is particularly pertinent here in the bay area is regional governance and cooperation where we try to emphasize move each of our cities that they really need to figure out in their broader economic region, not just within their city limits. so how do you coordinate with the communities around you to advance some of these policy issues, whether it's transportation, environmental improvements, economic development, education systems, workforce training, etc. these are some of the issues that we really want to publicize the best practices so that practitioners such as ourselves can bring these ideas back home

not often the case. i think the fact that this is the first time in who knows how long that the rest of the city family actually said, ok, we will do this. that is a big deal. even though it is not enough money, the fact that we have gotten that far is a big deal and we need to go with that. with that said, however, i think that it is really key to focus on especially energy efficiency and municipal rooftops for solar and small wind, demand response and et cetera. you know, right now basically we have a boat that is filling up with water very quickly. we have been bailing with a ladle. what staff negotiated is giving us a bucket instead of a ladle. but we are still not plugging the hole that. is what things like energy efficiency do. if we are letting the hole sit there by cutting the energy efficiency budget we are shooting off our nose to spite our face. i think what the commissioner said about bonds is absolutely crucial. when a few days ago the cca were talking with g.m. harrington about this and we knew that there was a half cent for four years proposal, the main question that we asked is will that give us

>> the project labor agreement is not between the city. and that gen -- i imagine cpmc and the unions could make that public. it was not negotiated with the city, per se. it was their agreement. supervisor avalos: lastly, we mentioned looking at the work force by trade and we expected to have on the project -- >> the numbers by trade? i can give you that. >> passed a follow-up question? -- may i ask a follow-up question? president chiu: yes. >> why did you choose a number as opposed to a proportion? it seems like a tough number because we are calculating or forecasting. >> in doing this a lot, it could go either way. you could have done 40 or a percentage and came out a little less. we just looked at the numbers and it seemed like doing for the end of being able to roll it over was the better way to go. you could've put a percentage and, i don't know, came out with the data differently. we feel a lot with percentages, sometimes it doesn't give you a bigger number. it just kind of depends. for the purposes of how we got here, looking at the

the country that your bridge is a beautiful medieval landmark not city this is a focal point city it represents many to florence and all its glory and whether you are chinese english american russian the historic landmarks and fantastic cultural world of florence with a longstanding russian italian connections or something everyone should cherish what an amazing city well unfortunately that's not how we have left on this week's program i see you can ask the same time next week and tell them for me and the rest of the things that i am. our. there are losing desperately needed to survive. misspoken is a ton of money to run the cultures on the official and suppresses the pros the rights of the people sers neocolonialism. those in jail and there's the church. good bye good guy looking guy who called up morning plays old boss but look the one that said he committed to nobody but enough to look at you edited from the company will be. those who suck you back to prosper. and simon says stand. up enough come up. with something. planks lysozyme but. no one can live without it's in one of the l

but i am not going to say much to you all. because ♪ at cityets so silly, y'all right here at city hall, it gets so silly ♪ i am telling you, because i have been up in it. we will have a community meeting with our supervisors at the northern police station friday. thank you. president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> thank you, president tchiu ad members of the board. my name is david carey. there have been discussions about the san francisco elections about the final round. but the success and legitimacy of an election is not just based on how it handles the final two candidates, but on how it handles the entire contest. having some kind of majority in the final round is a questionable value if the best candidate does not make it to the final round, or you cannot demonstrate that happens. a plurality creates a wasted vote, which were not allowed to help determine the winner. it prevents keep voters from fully participating in the election of representatives. plurality primaries have and will again regularly created more wasted votes, or past
