supervisors christina olagi, david campose and jane kim voted no. saying while what he did was wrong, the charges were too narrow to support removing him from office. he has been suspended from his job since last march. they spoke after hearing the decision. >> it's been more than grueling to say the least. and our debt is mounted like you wouldn't believe. >> i always feel optimistic and i feel that the best things happen for good reasons. >> ileana lopez cried as she listened to members of the board announce they would vote no. following the vote, the mayor released a statement saying, in part, the board's decision returns a convicted domestic batterer to lead the sheriff's office. i will do everything in my power to ensure that abusers continue to be held accountable. there are still a lot of unanswered questions. many are wondering whether he can bridge the gap with the mayor. we'll have more on that coming up in a live report at 5:00. >>> now to our continuing coverage of the major league baseball playoffs. the a's and the giants staying alive

we have commissioner olagi, item five mostly represents her district. >> recommended approval of final report of central freeway in octavia study. this san action item. >> good afternoon, commissioners, jeff keller, senior planner in planning division. i will preserve time for your discussion and questions. this item is to present finding and recommendations of the central freeway in octavia circulation study with which the authority has been engaged for some time in partnership with our partner agencies and the community. it was funded by a planning grant from metropolitan transportation commission a number of years ago. the purpose of the study was really to take a look back since the former central freeway was replaced with new touch stone ramps at market and the boulevard facility, which runs through the heart of hayes valley. recommend near-term improvements and high level look of circulation and what those mean from policy and planning perspective in this key core area of this city which serves so many travel demands, whether they are local or cross-town or regional threats that

but supervisors christina olagi, john avalos and jane kim said while what murkarimi did was wrong, therter is too narrow to support removing him from office. >> while the emotion satisfaction and political expedience of removing an official for a crime that most of us find unacceptable is very tempting to me, that is precisely the danger of removing an elected official for official misconduct for actions before that person are officially in office. it is a dangerous precedent to set. >> reporter: ross murkarimi supporters turned out by the hundreds for this hearing. the suspended sheriff and his wife sat attentively for hours tonight. murkarimi's wife eliana lopez cried as she listened to members of the board announce that they would vote no when she realized murkarimi can keep his job. mayor ed lee needed nine votes to remove the sheriff from office, and tonight it became clear before a final vote count even took place he did not visit. by a vote of 7-4, the board of supervisors does not sustain official misconduct charges, and sheriff ross murkarimi can be reinstated. reporting live
