it's two parts one is called richie's neighborhood and richie's neighborhood is a simulated street stage and it simulates a small city and it demonstrates children how to learn how to walk on streets, there's traffic lights, there's cars backing out of the garage, it's really wonderful. it's all tiny it's like a little city and they can learn how to walk safely to school, and then the other one aces adventure this one's a great video game that's afforded to students and children at an elementary level it's specifically designed to teach children safety on streets while they're walking to school and walking from school, for instance, if they're approached by a stranger or something hazardous like that, so i would like to play a video if it's alright with you folks and i got the video clip here. (watching video clip. >> they're turn k to extreme measures, gaib slate shows us new technology they're testing out on kids. >> the police chief the fire chief, politician, media were all o on hand for a special press conference of street safety in san francisco, it was held at a elementary school

richie's reports and i'll certainly forward this to your staff we hope there is an official plan that could be approved in june mr. richie's presentation represented the completion of tunnel by july 1st, 2018 essentially 3 years from now the bypass tunnel will be complemented completed 12 years from now this roaches the treat from the agencies one point 6 million 0 residents i'm aware of the short time period that's been identified as the shut down of the tunnel and for inspections by given the threat i ask the possibilities of extending those when the tunnel will be raped and report to the commission and at such time extensions are not possible that will be documented the percentage to bosco and the commission we'll be pleased to particle and the risk of the cat tropic collapse in the tomb requires a specific plan for the water supply that might be lost to our customers for example on step up to the plate first, the tunnel fails where would satisfactory water be found and delivered to the customers until the tunnel is fixed i understand from mr. richie the plan exists but not in writ

that results ultimately in richie's arrest and involvement in stores. he will be arrested and he managed to escape and found his way back to franklin indiana leaving a wife. when richie comes back to topeka in the spring of 1857, the people have gained control. they begin to legislate now for governing the territory. they enact antislavery legislation. that well seals the deal for kansas to become a free state rather than a proslavery state. the result is pretty clear that the people have become dominant. when that happens, it turns into a different scenario. that scenario is the people involved now began to operate the underground railroad. beginning in 1857, what happens is this house becomes one of the sitters were escaping slaves can find refuge and gain assistance to be transported to nebraska and into iowa, where they will be able to go to canada, where they will ultimately find themselves free. so the underground railroad becomes a less violent manifestation, though the same people were involved trying to weaken the fabric of slavery in missouri.

seeing none, moving on to the next door the drought update >> steve richie. >> steve richie the general manager for water if i can have the slides i'll dive into the presentation on the drought here's a table i routinely show it modifies each period as time progresses with the utilized water and the two red arrows is hetch hetchy is up to 70 percent right now an in flow is good because of the precipitation but the water bank is down to 27 percent it is doing its job making sure we are feeding the irrigation district and have the ability to retain water for hetch hetchy we're storing more water up hail because of the way we release water downhill by the crystal strings in san antonio and this is 87 and santa ana debris down those are not by accident we made sure if there's available storage capacitate in the bay area we actually bring excess water under hetch hetchy and store it in our reservoirs one because the capacitate capacity is available and secondly it an operational need the more water scored locally in case of a disruption of hetch hetchy we have to offer a water with the local

richie and based on the limit amount of precipitation how is the drought ground of san francisco i know a lot of run off on concrete and the in oceanow is the drought we're monitoring the underground. >> actually in two ways one we're telegraph hill monitoring the ground water wells this is a pretty productive aqua a strong radiant flowing out to the ocean so san francisco is we're lingus freshwater to the ocean we're hoping to attach catching in the ground program also here in the civic scienter we do sub surface dewatering because of the high ground water it is decreased a little bit not much f we're working with the dpw on the underneath the plazas to use it for truck filling and sweep sweeping because of two of ground water that ground water is staying stable so for. >> thank you. >> the other point and maybe i want to talk about it is that we've sort of changed the way we operate our system because of the shut downs we want to make sure we have water in the local reservoir when we should you we have to take care of everyone and whatever we have a shut down on the hetch hetchy side

atta boy, richie. way to take him out.ove you, man. >> many competitors follow the philosophy if it's got an engine and the ability to go fast, they are going to try to race it. that philosophy apparently includes a.t.v.'s. but some racers also struggle with that, as in too many a.t.v.'s on a track increasing the probability of a collision, which equals pain. and racers flying through the air when they should be riding their bikes. maybe they should try something safer, like chainsaw juggling. >> it seems we are addicted to watching people flying through the air because you never know what is going to happen when they come down. the goal here is to guide towards the earth and make a soft flashy landing. that is pretty good. but it is not quite as easy as it looks. in fact, just a slight miscalculation or a shift in mind at this height and speed can help you learn the true meaning of hard water. towel, please? and an ice pack. >> then again, amateur thrill seekers are always looking to make a big slash. and sometimes they g

the richie's neighborhood, i'm still very committed to find the funding to get it built for san francisco. i think the things that children can learn from it is just tremendous. i mean, when i saw them doing -- it's one thing to look at a news clip or for someone to talk about it but when you're in there, when the kids are there and see the excitement and how they're sort of absorbing everything, it's amazing and once you build it, there's going to be ongoing cost for staffing but it's built and it could be used year after year after year, and it would take several years just to get to every elementary school, and then by the tyke you recycle again you're back to new kids, so i'm hoping that -- what i would like to do is continue this item because i would like to bring it back in the future to look at -- make sure we have some solutions to the budget issues. i also realize that maybe as we continue this item, that we maybe want to expand the item itself because i'm hearing a lot of questions around it in which we didn't invite sfmta to be here and other department and is they could have g
