to correspond on signage. >> with those amendments modified to the maker. if there is nothing further, commissioners, there is a motion and second to approve this matter with conditions as amended and read into record by the city attorney. on that motion, commissioner >commissioner michael j. antonini: >commissioner rich hillis: -- >president cindy wu: commissioner hillis wasn't here. city clerk: i apologize. commissioner johnson, commissioner >commissioner dennis richards: >president cindy wu:. that places us in the next item. you have two items in the discretionary review calendar they are all related and part of the same project. so i recommend that you hear them altogether as one super large item. so in that case. commissioners, you will hear items 15a and 16a for case number 2013.1521dd v and the zoning administrator will consider case no. 2013.1521ddv and 22v and 24 ord court. there is a single requester on 3 separate building applications and zoning requester will receive 15 minutes and because they are three separate building applications they will

guidelines do address signage and it's a large part of that. the updated formula retail controls are not yet effective until some time next month at the earliest so those controls are not yet in place. >> so if the controls are not yet in place, does that mean that if we do the approval today that this location would not be subject to those guidelines even if it hasn't been constructed yet? >> kate stacy city attorney's office it would depend whether the project has all it's permits and achieved rights and whether or not the code would apply at that time. we would have to look at the status of the project. >> okay. >> and what we are attempting to impose. >> the question is that's one thing we can do. i'm trying to get to whether we can make a motion today so we know what we are getting. is it possible to say on a condition of approval that this project would adhere to our signage guidelines separate and part from the formula retail legislation rather than saying it's up to -- >> it needs to comply with the signage requirements. so i think perh

first is the signage and under the constitution there is limitation as far as what the government can do in relation to signs. government can say what kind of signs, government trying to dictate the internal of the sign, the trademark of the company. i would recommend against that first condition unless the intent is to talk about the place and manner of the sign and where it is. those types of conditions the government can apply, but this seems more general that that sign is different from other hamburger mary's signs that it's different and unique from others in the change. it sounds like it gets more to the content and trademark design of hamburger mary's which i recommend the planning commission not address as part of this motion. >president cindy wu: commissioner richards? >> >commissioner dennis richards: i think from my point of view, i'm not worried about the trademark. we are not looking for a fluorescent sign but a time place and manner to be in the castro market, the plastic in front that is ugly as hell and that's the kind of sign we are not looking for. >president cindy w

>> yes, i have two thoughts as you were talking about the cafe signage. when i first started looking over the report, my first question was cafe part of the original structure and i was really pleased to see it was very early along if not with the original design. >> it appears to be the first thing that opened in the building. >> so while we can't maybe dictator require that names remain, it might be a way to encourage and provide some incentive for doing that because i think the name is very important. >> that could be a part of the plaque, right? >> >> it would be a shame to lose cafe den oerd for that. >> it's perfectly within your jurisdiction if you decided to rename the designation swedish american hall cafe building as a way to memorialize the cafe's original location. >> commissioner pearlman in with that relative to twin peaks tavern and the bar, we are doing specifically that. so it seem to me that's a really nice way that no matter what happens in the future. i mean how often is there a name that has lasted as long as this name so far. i think

park and prohibition on alcohol and tobacco. >> commissioner richards. >> a couple of questions the signage is the fenway that was received from one of the e-mails we had. >> the project sponsor posted some communicated outreach that included the jordan park improvements association and they misdemeanor the plans based on recommendations from the neighborhood. >> okay. >> and there's agreement. >> okay. great where's the closet alcohol sales around the site? i actually do not know maybe commissioner fong can answer (laughter) >> they moved across the street. >> commissioners there's a motion and second to approve this matter with conditions as amended by staff and print the sale of. >> commissioner antonini. >> commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner johnck's commissioner fong. >> commissioner president wu so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 7 to zero and places you under our discretionary calendar item 17 for the next case at 29 lay street this is an abbreviated discretionary review. >> good evening commissioners i'm defied license plate

improvements whether their signal consortiums traffic improvements pedestrian safety bulb outs or signageing people more aware and big thrust in education because everybody has to be more aware so i will want to say this we have to move together on this and noted pointing out the fingers it's not just infrastructure or education it's not just one or the other all i have those things have to work in concert with each other and we have to talk what the bicyclists and the car drivers and talk with people that are moving supplies in and out for all of those crosswalks projects and talk with people that walk our streets in multiple different languages we have a lot of visitors from all over the world they're not use to the intense use of our streets as we grow as a city we have to center the conversation with all our partners and kids and look out for each other in addition to louth four users so vision zero is our goal and fraying will help get us there we're not going to wait we're beginning the projects we'll be you announcing them as time goes on as and a we get the projects done and need

now we have signage on there not to be opened. there the house manager for all of our events and before the event summary rents out for private event, we very sternly told him not to open that door >> i just want to ask about the history of the complaints. has been going on for your four years there were the more recent? >> i would say recently it's more aspirated >> love you change anything you're doing? >> based on the most recent complaint, now we've rented on mac's speakers to lessen the sound and we bought the speakers -- we don't use this because of milwaukee and we read speakers and use stands so it's right on the dance floor. we put on some sound absorbing equipment rack foam i guess you would say. then we checked the sound levels. >> soundproofing like the phone without you meant >> yes, guess the cheap stuff. >> are you checking [inaudible] with an iphone >> yes that's our unscientific >> how long has the metronome been there, >> i thought was a little over 20. >> i know i took dance lessons there in 92. ever since i liv

procurement we looked at with 2 hundred and 60 cars long term contract and great communications from the signage to the announcement standpoint by most importantly from a performance level you see the current l l r v what the proposed siemens they're a whole new generations and whole new way of doing business and great maintenance practice and great savings for the maintenance and reduced the time of details and maintenance because of the location of the components and the modules vs. the old ones we're excited we feel that we'll really help us meet the needs of the future and really begin the process to make us what we believe will be the premier of the light rail system in the u.s. with that, i thank yourself time and happy to answer questions. >> great. thank you very much so you know we clearly have a path in terms of the new vehicles that are arriving i know that the agency is doing more and more to try to keep those vehicles in shape and keep a higher percentage of them in operation to increase our reliability and again, we have seen results sometimes the result are up and down i know earl

we've we'll have ambassadors out there to make sure to explain to people and direct to people and signage and banners to direct people and have flyers and use other outreach such the lab and social media novelist other stakeholders such as the board of supervisors as well. it's small and a but significant change for people who we were frustratingly looking at the platform we don't let them disembark and finally to the director brinkmans earlier request we'll be bringing a competitive report update open vision zero to the board in february but just to i guess wet our appetite a little bit there's been so much work by our staff and folks from across the city agencies just to a reminder that vision zero was a policy and goal to eliminate traffic deaths in san francisco by 2024 so adapting vision zero you were the first city body to do so and before the police commission and board of supervisors and environment commission you were i you were the first to adapt vision zero to have a better and satisfactory street to increase the enforcement of the laws and the elective initiatives to save live

the neighbors and including the security plan for the hours of operation sidewalk maintenance and signage and on site management that concludes my presentation. i'd like to introduce mr. duffey. >> commissioners, thank you for having me here i want to note at 5 o'clock we'll be vice chair our homeless folks that died on the streets program we're talking a life or death situation there are $6,000 plus homeless individuals if san francisco 34 hundred living on the street 18 in street programs and jail have no 0 home to be real estate department 20 to 10 years ago when mayor newsom had an effort this followed up open the adaptation by the voters when commissioner antonini and myself are here to support to bring about fundamental change in homelessness in 2005 we had 15 hundred shelter beds now 1145 part of that for the recommendation was a commitment to build 3 thousand new units of housing we realize that shelters plays an important role it is about individuals not getting $400 a month but $579 a month it is difficult in the housing market we're not moving people as quicken it is taking 6 t

. >>> a restaurant is taking some heat for a controversial message on its digital signage board. the owner of rivoli's in town center posted a message that says, i can breathe. he said he posted the message to show his support for police. some people blasted the sign as a negative reference to eric garner's final words, i can't breathe. eric garner died in july after a new york city police officer placed him in a chokehold. it sparked at least 2,000 comments on the police blog copblock. >> that officer was in an unfortunate situation and was just doing his job. evidently he did it by the book. >> fratelli tells us he removed the message after a friend of his, who is a police officer, suggested he take it down for his own safety. >>> another incident involving the police, this one in massachusetts. this woman is now receiving psychiatric help after she allegedly threw raw meat at a police dispatcher. authorities say the woman walked into a police station yesterday and told the officer she was there, quote, to feed the pigs. officials say she then tossed raw bacon and sausage at th

appropriations of $300 million will be focused on making sure our streets are designed and signal listed and signage to get to zero death our vision zero is a serious goal we're united about preventing the death and fatalities along our streets so thank you (clapping) so i can talk on and on all morning you have wonderful panelists this morning i hear that the form staff are heading up agencies in los angeles and you've got people from all over the country here to share a talk to i'm excited i want to know what your talking about and what i think is the best approaches i'm a mayor that want to make sure our cities are successful we can't do that without successful transportation to me transportation is the great equal legislators the mayor and i have talked about the income and equality and all the challenges we have about economics when you get to transportation and certainly for our city you'll ride a muni bus or trolley or the bart and standing right next to a ceo of a billion dollar corporation because people need to get things done and we have transportation that units them all throughout the c

the only problem is there has to be proper signage to make sure that happen that happens and the officers out there know it's exempt and 3 that the uber and tnc's know they they can't be interfering with the taxis picking up and dropping off because they have been given a pass by certain law enforcement officials and i think it has to be clear it's for taxis only and there's a cab stand already over there and it's so far down the block and it's a great spot it hasn't been painted yet so the problem is they are putting up signs but not painting curbs where there's official cab zones and it's a problem making enforcement difficult and making recognition by the public and unfortunately when you have it so far from the corner, then it is a problem because the people are flagging at corners they are not going down down to actual cab stands too far away to walk because they see a cab so this issue has got to be dealt with regarding where you are putting cab stands at the north beach corridor. if they are too far away from intersections people aren't going to know they are there. >> motion to ap

are there signages? those are the types of things we look for. we don't duplicate what the daas staff is doing in terms of their site visit. >> so for example, if you have some suggestion to the site, do you go back and check these or what? >> that is something that we haven't done. that would be something that we would give to the daas analyst and they would follow-up on that. again, we're not trying to duplicate services that daas staff is doing. what we're wanting to do is just really take a look from the consumer standpoint how the site visits are. >> so you give it to the analyst, but you follow-up on them? >> the analyst would do that, ma'am. >> so you check with the analyst later? >> yes. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> next we'll have the joint advisory council joint legislative report. >> i'm writing myself a note. >> okay. diane lawrence. >> yes, i'm diane lawrence and represent district 4 on the advisory council and this is my first meeting, so please bear with me. i will look to mr. sims for help as well. on the november 19th meeting o

. >> signage at the store gives several variations of the actual name of the business. we have reach out to the bristol borough police and we've asked the bucks county consumer advocate to investigate. if you are a customer with a complaint go to myfoxphilly.com and we will link you to the contact number. >> two places to party will be twice the fun for the new year. philadelphia mayor michael nutter and camden mayor dana re did. d a unnod plans for the big evening at the sugar house casino. they are joining forces to make the waterfront the best place to celebrate the new year. the firework on the waterfront in both cities will light the skies at 6:00 p.m. and again at midnight. >> they'll will be great viewing opportunities for the fireworks both shows at wiggins park in camden, at penn's landing and at sugar house casino. >> don't forget the 2015 mummers parade has a new route broad street from city hall to washington avenue. the parade starts at 10am and the mummers have another celebration on main street in manayunk. >>> so, christmas comes early for a local high s

that's the one thing, i used to always get lost in the parking lot at candlestick because there's no signage around. >> would you have something like that in the parking lot where you really do need to get to your car quickly and get out? >> sounds like a wonderful use case. i would love to see these all over the city to tell me about parking, what's an open parking spot. >> and guide you to it. >> macy's says these are now in every single macy's store all over the united states. and there are a number of other ones. >> i'm wondering about some of the department stores. because this is very convenient and seems like it's safe and there's not a privacy concern. we're having breaches in every conceivable brand. we have sony, we have target. when you're in target and you have one of these devices, you feel like you're a target at target, right? so i'm wondering, who are some of the stores and have any of them experienced any type of breaches and is this just comparing apples to oranges? >> i think it's fair to characterize these and say this is early. a lot of people are talking about this. the

because anthony makes the signage in house, he's able to retain all of the margin. seeing numbers like this makes investing in this industry a lot more attractive to me. and so, how does the chain of command here work? anthony: we all try to work very well together. -lemonis: who's the boss? -anthony: i'm the boss. i like to be -- and i hate to say it, i like to say, "hey, i'm the boss, let's just do it the way i want to do it." 'cause at the end of the day, if i make the mistake, i can't yell at them. lemonis: you're laughing 'cause you want to say something. -anthony: it's true. -josh: oh, me? oh, yeah, he's just very stubborn. he'll get upset or frustrated when we say, "can't do it that way, man." anthony: i do listen to all parties. josh: he does. but there is a finite line. "okay, i'm sick of talking about it." lemonis: should be interesting. i still don't quite understand asl's process -- how they generate business and how those orders are executed. so i walked the floor to talk to some of the employees. -man: sir, how are you? -lemonis: nice to meet you. -j.r
