we would like to go forward with say rebid to capture the hiring ordnance those projects could present to us. there are relatively small from the work hours perspective. the total projected hours are about 2485. the projected total cost for that labor is about 133,000. for those two projects, we had said not to exceed a bid price of $4 million. the one bid we did receive but did not act on was in the $2.7 million range. that gives a sense of how much labor is associated with that total contract. but we do think it is a good opportunity to try to capture some of the higher ordnance requirements on a solar project. as i mentioned, we talked with some stakeholders' about what the meaning of this new finding from the state agencies is. we have talked with the state agencies itself -- themselves. it would also be constructive to talk to the labor folks involved. we have not had that opportunity yet. but it is time for us to issue the new bid. it won't present an opportunity to bring photovoltaic on to the job site, but that will take some time, perhaps up to one and a half years. with that,

the very -- the various ordnances were introduced. the mayor and board president david chiu introduced legislation relating to the north beach plant -- branch library. and supervisor mirkarimi introduced a revised proposal for your recommendation for fillmore street. that concludes the board report for this week, unless there are questions. commissioner olague: commissioner antonini? commissioner antonini: anne- marie -- thank you for your report. i think the one thing that some members of the public have asked me about, and i think it is a little confusing. when they say "fast food," it is not what we equate colloquially with fast food. maybe short order would be a good way to change the language in the future. it could be a sandwich shop. someplace that has fewer items. maybe not sit down. that type of thing. i think that is what we were passing here. >> yes, i think the public is rightly confused when they hear the words "lunch fast food." even upscale restaurants where you might order at the counter is "fast food." now we have the

item 36 >> item 36 is an ordnance amending the administrative code to add this city administrator as a member of the justice tracking information system governance council and designate the city administrator as the chair of the council. president chiu: any discussion on this item? without objection, this ordinance is passed on the first reading. if we could now go back to item 25. >> item 25 appropriates 529,000 certificate proceeds for disability access improvement projects and relocation costs in the mayor's office on disability for fiscal year 2010-2011. supervisor avalos: colleagues, last week, i spoke about waffling on this issue. i was not sure how i was going to vote. since last week, i am more certain that i am voting know. it was a difficult vote for me. i felt there was needs to fix things in the board chambers, but i saw the same sites i see on a daily basis, wheelchair ramps that are not completed, a ramp where groundwork has been started on the corner of san jose and geneva. there are too large plastic barriers so it is very difficult to get through. i thought the depar

city council approved an ordnance changing leash restrictions from 20 feet to just six feet in length. repeat violators will reportedly be slapped with a $100 fine. members proposed the ordnance after the 2009 death of beverly head, who became tangled in a leash before falling and bumping her head. >>> the world's biggest retailer was in court today. walmart is asking the supreme court to desert fi a class action lawsuit who say the company des criminated against them in pay and promotions. one of the women is from here in the bay area. garvin thomas has more. >> reporter: at the supreme court today, a small group of women with hopes they'll soon speak for more than a million women. >> i brought this case -- >> reporter: betty dukes first sued walmart in 2001 after working at a store in pittsburgh. her sex discrimination case is now a class action for female employees past and perez ept. >> if you do wrong, you should be held accountable. >> reporter: but the retail giant says the lawsuit is too big and shouldn't be a class action because it is too big. >> what's wrong with this case

next, i am introducing a substantive new -- substitute ordnance insuring -- ordnance ensuring there are safe, attractive street from judges. this means several recommendations, as well as the opportunity to reform from other recent changes. my thanks to the planning department staff, the city attorney, marlena burke to help me navigate the impenetrable leavenworth of building center code. yet next, the unprecedented human rights commission of september 23, which was attended by over 150 people concerning surveillance and the race and religious profiling of members of the arab, a middle eastern, south asian communities. members of the clergy, attorneys, and scholars testified at the hearing. it was approved by the human- rights commission last thursday. today, i passed a resolution endorsing those findings of the human rights commission. next, we had an impressive hearing in the police commission on creating de missile health crisis team and ensuring training was not only retained, but modernized. this resolution affirms the decision to create a crisis prevention team and urges the sente

what is the difference between first source and the public works construction ordnance? they are different creatures. there may be some overlap. i do not think a lot of people understand how these different strategies are supposed to approach different audiences and populations. >> first source is looking at all private employment and contracts for the city. construction is not the only opportunity where the system can be developed to increase the number of sentences the residents. first source is a voluntary program, good faith. the requirement is 50% of new hires were new jobs created because of the project, the city has the right of first refusal. we get to give an employer a list of qualified residents for those jobs before they advertise those in the larger public market. if i am an employer coming to san francisco, first source is a would come to the city and say i have 200 jobs. the city has the right to help the staff those. if you give me qualified san francisco residents, if not, i will go through normal channels and recruit individuals to perform the work. fir

by ordnance, we're mandated to oversee them. we know lot about the project. in terms of staffing, we do sometimes have to prioritize what we are working on. there are times when we strategizing to go where we will get the most bang for auerbac--r buck, so to speak. once we do roll out local hire, we will need to figure out a way to roll out our report card to a number of stakeholders. the least of which is the board of supervisors, to give you an update that is fairly comprehensive on where we're at. i think we're better suited to do that on the construction side than on the end use. i feel comfortable we can give you some amount of data on how we are performing on these projects, our goals, where we feel we're having challenges. i do not feel as confident that we could do that on the end use side. it is a lot harder to get your arms around. there's a lot more diversity in the mix of opportunities. it will take us a lot more time to figure that out. supervisor avalos: we have a representative from the port and others here to speak. several years ago when we u

this is a smaller ordnance requiring active uses on the ground floor only. you heard this on march 3rd and recommend approval with a couple of conditions. he recommended the definition of "active usage" expanded to include an outdoor seating areas and a new restaurant -- the self service specialty food. since your planning commission hearing, the supervisor included both of your recommendations in to the ordinance. the land use committee recommended approval to the full board. the other ordinance is a larger, older piece of legislation seeking to revise parking, use controls, street frontage regulation and selected -- in selected areas to conform with policies from our recently adopted planning areas. all told, this proposed ordinance would amend or repeal 28 separate portions of the planning code. at the highest levels, this ordinance can be summarized by the following -- it would help to regulate building block by counting parking limits in neighboring commercial districts and the special use district. it would limit the dominance of brush -- the dominance

within our ordnance and by laws, we have assigned seats for the school district. head start, two resource and referrals. and children services and for dcyf, the first five san francisco. >> that group comes together on "moly basis. it informs the school district and board of education around what's going on in the field. >> can i ask the representative for us is going to be mr. lazard. >> commissioner yi? jo i'll add to the history. why did the department of education fund this piece they actually funded child care. we have money coming. jo for cal works. historically because education funded child care. the other thing we wanted to point out was the traditional sort of definition of child care was not what the state used for their services nor baz it what we use in san francisco. we meanerly childhood education. people would assume it is just babysitting and not he had kiss. >> to that point, we work closely with a lot of members of the unified school district. we have really strong ties. i can voug for the a mount ys. >> thank you. there are no public speakers o

in fact, that is the only item in your ordnance today under this item. those specific ones were changed. this is the market octavia plan with the board of supervisors, what they thought they did in 2008. supervisor mar: so this is just clearing that up? >> that is correct. supervisor mar: questions, colleagues? supervisor wiener? supervisor wiener: the property owners that have been impacted, have they been contacted? >> yes, thee mark -- the market octavia plan had extensive outreach, so that occurred, as well as the required mailed ordinance. for the ordinance in front of you today, we did another notice to the property owners of the area shown in black. supervisor wiener: have there been any responses? >> not to the planning department. supervisor wiener: thank you. supervisor mar: let's open this up to public comment. is there any member of the public who would like to speak? seeing none, public comment is closed. colleagues? so moved and seconded without objection, with a positive recommendation. that means just double-check. do we need to do the co

the committee heard the ordnance and recommended approval of the full board. at the board of supervisors, we had an appeal as a discretionary review case. at the full board, the neighborhood association made primary charges against the issuance of the candidates. the first concern was that they failed to conduct a district review of the property and the department conducted evaluation of the project in 2008. they concluded the existing druggarage was not a historic resource. he changed the scope of work from altering an existing cottage to constructing a new development. they already made conclusions that there were no resources or the conduct an evaluation. -- the need to conduct an evaluation. it must be significant under the california register. they are willing to meet any of the criteria set forth, and they determined that it was not a historic resources and there had been no significant impact to offsites resources. the appellant claimed it would have a negative and the cumulative impact for resources. there was no substantial or credible evidence to sup

i worked very closely with them on the local hiring ordnance. peter cohen i worked with for new strategies in san francisco. there is work that she has already done. i think it is important to recognize the work that she has done. i was also alarmed that charlie shamas was not put forward on the rules committee. it has been a strong voice for economic development and environmental justice. with community members, building the leadership, it is so necessary in the city with the economic downturn that has been working hand-in-hand with community members and has made the citizen's committee on community development a very meaningful experience for the community to take part in. in the past when there would be community meetings with cccd, they would have about two minutes for public comment with the work of restructuring the committee and having a stronger approach on community development. they opened it up for the community to actually take part and there to be dialogue on how the city will be responding with its community development work. it is

unlike the other ordnances, this does not amend the planning cut. we would like guidance on whether or not you like a hearing on this item so you can make recommendations to the board. because it is a change to the administrative code, we are under a 30-day time limit. it would have to be heard pretty soon. and a supervisor elsbernd requested a hearing on park merced. i believe scott will be doing the board of appeals. if i could get some direction on that, we can bring it back to you if you choose. commissioner antonini: this apparently is an extension or new ban on formal retail specific to certain types of stores. regardless of the entity, is this something that would first come before the planning commission? what is going on here? >> has a 90-day time limit. commissioner antonini: we would have jurisdiction before they did? >> correct. >> the mayor did introduce an amendment to the advent of -- admin code today. to extend approval of large tourist hotels and condominiums. there is only a 30-day window. we are trying to get a sense of whether yo

the actual ordnance comes from various countries from russia, america, china, and a large number of mortar bombs made in britain. the british stuff, like the rest, is all very old. but if a bomb landed on it, there will be a major disaster. land mines would be planted here, but nobody knew where. everyone we spoke to was hoping for a no-fly zone by the western powers. >> wheat persuade you to let the people of europe and america listen to our requests. >> for now, there is no protection against the air force. just a few nervous volunteers. gos>> one with the libyans have been venting their feelings is through art. our correspondent has been home to a makeshift gallery to see some of the pictures on display. we are unable to bring you that at the moment, but we will give you the package a little bit later. the situation has been unfolding in terms of the international reaction. much has been said about whether the international community w z. >> of the threat of an attack from the above could be stopped if our air force jets were patrolling the libya opposed the skies. -- libya's skies. hil
