teague doesn't like being in this position. it's extremely unfair especially when somebody has done everything right. this is their life on the line, but that's why we wanted to bring this to the board as quickly as possible. we've waived our brief, and the board can make a decision regarding this notice tonight. thank you. >> president swig: mr. sanchez, please, sir, just -- >> commissioner honda: hola. >> president swig: you know i always look to you for your guidance and your help. so two guys in the planning department are sitting next to each other, two separate desks, and they're looking at this, and one person makes the evaluation, because of the ambiguity, this is fine, of course. this type of business is included. and then, the other person looks at the ambiguity and goes of course, no, it's not included. and my biggest issue on this is the clarity of the law. you know that i've sat up here many, many times and says the law sucks, but we've got to go by the law even though somebody is clearly getting hurt by this. am i

ryan teague beckwith, we'll leave it there.hank you very much for wrapping up a very busy week in washington. well, from d.c., to london, a story in the magazine on how brexit's chaos, it's opening cracks in the u.k.'s 300-year plus union. carol: this was also going on. this week a televised debate and an election campaign also picking up momentum. let's head to london and check in with tim ross. so much going on. busy here in the states. busy over in the u.k. let's talk about the election trail. news from there, there was a lot of momentum, tim, what's the momentum that we need to know about as investors? tim: at the moment, the conservative party is still ahead comfortably in the opinion polls of jeremy corbyn's labour party but in the first of the televised debates between boris johnson, the prime minister and tory leader, and jeremy corbyn who is challenging him from a really quite hard left leaning socialist angle, they ended in a bit of a draw. it was a stalemate. everyone was really expecting johnson or most people were

teague misinformed and erred in abuse because he didn't properly pay attention to the legislation that was passed or i'll cut him some slack, interpreted the -- the legislation based on some ambiguity that may be in the legislation, that there is no ambiguity, l.c.u.s are included in this legislation. so what are you talking about? >> so the zoning administrator is looking at the plain language. the restrictions only apply in n.c. districts, and this is not a n.c. district. speaking to our staff who went through the process, they stated that was not clearly part of the intent. that was their memory, that this should not be included. also looking at it itself, and the zoning administrator came to this conclusion. now i don't believe that the supervisors' comments were known to the zoning administrator at the time, but the zoning administrator kind of went with what's officially in the record and our conversations with staff. and you know this board, through its field process has the benefit of the public notice and hearing everyone's thoughts. that's not something that the zoning admini

is falling flat with a lot of the audience with the us media picking up on growing impeachment for teague no less saskia taylor reports. talk to what a year it's been and has not felt like it's just been dragging on and everyone i speak to says the same thing that that confused and anxious for the democrats to stress because they've been struggling to find a single candidate who can take on trump and 2020 and the best they've come up with is a man whose payday was when he posed in a short sleeved button down more than 40 years ago then you've got the republicans that just riddled with anxiety they keep texting alerts on the phone just praying that lead to hasn't gone on a twitter wrong page or put his economy in a choke hold and then of course that there fending off attacks from the democrats blocked right and center you always told me doc it's bad to keep things bottled up inside and really politicians that just like us they need that stress relief to. so the people on the hell have signed up to a group therapy session and it's a classic safe space where everyone supports one another end

teague, but really, the error i think is the interpretation and also the error is the reversal on previous advice given to the applicant. so i -- i'm not going to add anything or ask you to change. i'm going to be in support. >> commissioner santacana: given the blend -- >> commissioner honda: is this his first motion? >> clerk: it's his first night here. >> commissioner santacana: i try to stay out of it. >> commissioner honda: yeah. >> commissioner santacana: i think i would amend the motion to add a second independent ground that the zoning administrator erred in his interpretation of the law based on the evidence given. >> president swig: i'm more comfortable with that. thank you very much. >> commissioner honda: and we are going to have a second bite at this. >> commissioner honda: you've got to call the motion. >> clerk: okay. please make sure i'm accurate. we have a motion from commissioner santacana to grant the appeal and overturn the suspension request on the basis that the z.a.erred in interpreting the planning code based on the interpretation by the planning code this evening.

we spoke with zoning administrator corey teague after the suspension and he confirmed that our restaurant is principally permitted in the location on 4550 irving street. knowing there and after having gone through the steps at the planning department, working with the a.b.c. to sign off on restrictions and finding and putting a restriction down for a good contractor, it just feels like the city is trying to make us start over from scratch and sit around and wait just for the sake of it. our business will not be able to sustain this. as mentioned, not only have we spent our entire life savings on this, dennis left his job, and i quit one full-time job and work only part-time at a wine bar to help this. this isn't about avoiding public notice. the steps we have taken point to the fact that we are law abiding citizens. everything that the plans department has advised us to do, we have done. were we to have known that we needed to have give public notice, we would have done so when we gave our notice and would be done so or close to. we aren't a large organization

let's get to ryan teague beckwith. an important vote in the house this week. let's get up to speed. ryan: it is appropriate it took place on halloween because republicans thought it was a trick, but not really a treat for democrats either. two of them did not vote for the resolution and no republicans voted for it. only one former republican, justin amash, voted for it. jason: what does this mean? it feels like we are entering a new phase, a more public phase, right? ryan: democrats think they have enough evidence so far that they have gathered behind the scenes, most of which we heard bits and pieces of in leaks and interviews from lawmakers after the fact. they are now moving towards the more formal open process of impeachment. this also addresses the republican concerns levied earlier that this was a secret process being done behind closed doors. carol: set the stage for the next week or weeks in terms of what happens. ryan: partisan vote is the key thing to look at. republicans so far remaining in lockstep on this, in an effort to portray this as partisan effort by democrats to

association between average sugar consumption per cap a to and country and then the average number of the teague per person. there's good news and bad news about the results of the survey. the bad news and good news is that 63% of people in the survey could read this graphic well at the gramatticcal level. what do i mean? they could interpret that each one of those is a country. could interpret the meant the position in the herossal axis means something and the position on the vertical axis meant something else. that's gramatticcal level. this is great news because as a journalist i can tell you if we had conduct third survey 20 years ago the permanent would be mump lower. why? because nowhere to be seep in newspapers 20 or 25 years ago. the first cat to plots're purchased do in the united states, 10 or 15 years ago. therefore, this is just a guess, that percentage is ooh higher today because more reader have been exposes the these charts throughout the years the bad news is we still have a third of people who cannot read this graphic even at the gram matical level. some people interpret the cha
