had to stay in the marina. they were not allocated for some other source? >> correct. >> the last time i heard this was a while ago. there are a few issues that still resonate with me. i appreciate getting the letter from the department of boating and water works, stating that they approve the amendment as revised. that is great. that was a concern we had. but the one thing that just sticks for me, and i do not know that anybody can give us the assurance, is that if there are shortfalls, despite all these new sources of revenue, how can we guarantee that does not fall on the backs of the tenants? i really struggled with the possibility that these costs could somehow be passed through. >> in putting together the cash flow analysis for the project, which, of course, we have shared with boating and waterways and then with you and the board, i have tried to make as conservative projections as i possibly can, both for revenue and for expenditures and after completion in the project. i have done what i can to be as r

i recently had a chance to visit the marina district for the first time. it was very beautiful and very clean. i did not understand why there was some much debate about the shelter and the first place. aside from money and building regulations, i understand there is a certain level of fear that comes with homeless activity in such a beautiful district like the marina. no one wants to see the marina look like the tenderloin. i want to reassure anyone with of the concern that you've shelters are nothing like other homeless shelters. all the youth that i have encountered have all been very motivated individuals whose ultimate goal was to have jobs and go to school. it is my belief that living in an area like the marina would only benefit the homeless youth to continue their pursuit. san francisco is a very iconic city. i believe that what happens here influences what happens elsewhere in this country. i believe that we can really show the rest of the world that caring about youth who don't have a lot of choices in life generally encourage others to do the sam

have a, and i'll forward to welcoming them to the marina. >> my name is bill campbell. i have lived in different locations within seven blocks of edward the second for 35 years. i was looking through an alumni magazine when i saw one of those articles on faculty research projects. this one began with this sentence. one third half of the girl living in high crime areas are victims of sexual violence. young women that live in poor neighborhoods face violence is way above what women in other neighborhoods face. we need a citywide solution and all neighborhoods need to step up. i know the track record. one of the reasons why it is so successful is that it has high expectations and it provides a world-class mentoring and support. years ago, there was a mansion and in pacific heights. i never heard of a single incident to the entire time it was there. i think it will be the same way here. i have listened to the opponent's comments. i have heard one person say three times that he was against this project because it is a gold-plated project. i have heard other people say that th

we did want to welcome john to the san francisco marina. >> think you. -- thank you. started with a national search, and ended up being an international search to find john. i wanted to mention from the career history and his experienced and professional trajectory is bringing together operations management, personnel management of interest in this neris that, expertise and arena and in our mental regulatory procedures and rules, waterfront capital renovation, management experience, a maritime legal and risk management expertise from the at in-depth knowledge of sailing, racing and boat owners are practices. -- boat ownership practices. we hit the trifecta and getting john here as a very accomplished and professional marine adopt harbor master for us. with that, i would like to turn the microphone over to john and his second week of work here. >> good morning, president, and commissioners. thank you for the very nice introduction. you summed up my history very well. i do not have too much more to add. as bill said, i have been a 100- ton coast guard captain with toe e

the marina is in this area here. you can correlate the advancement of the shoreline of san francisco with the potential for liquefaction. >> it is a perfect example. it is all sold and liquefaction. >> treasure island is unique. it was originally developed to be the location of the world fair with the understanding that once it was finished, that would become the location of san francisco international airport. it is 11,000 feet long. in those days, the thought that was more than enough to land any conceivable airplane. they thought it was ideal. they said that we have all kinds of sand out in the bay from the sacramento river. we will take the stand out of the bay and create this island. the sand is loose and below the water. it liquefied in 1957. it liquefied in 1989 during the loma prieta. it was similar to what happened in the marina. >> as they move along and developed treasure island, the developer also has to provide stabilization programs. >> the sand has to be strengthened so that it will not liquefy. the bui

pick up your radio, tell the marina residents shelter in place. don't go to your staging area out in the marina green. shelter in place. that may be one of your options. choose a room with no windows, as few as possible. pick a room with toilet, water, phone, have it large enough for family members. precut plastic with duct tape. there should be a law. have your disaster kit in that room, have snacks available for kids. turn off the hvac, heating, ventilation air conditioning units because you don't want to be blowing in or sucking in the vapor cloud outside. fireplace, close the dampers and seal off your shelter in place room by using duct tape and terms of the emergency alert system. listen to the radio. that's it. do not try to call the school, try to pick up your children because do you want to leave the area? no, you want to shelter in place. people own pets. do not risk your safety for pets. in summary, it is likely you are at an incident that may be involved with bnice, your safety is the most important. limit your time, get your distance a

in the other direction, the marina bay and skyline. it is really dropping. >> i read somewhere it was a $7 billion investment. >> we are probably about 5.7 billion u.s. dollars. it makes it the most expensive pier tourism development in the world. >> modern business needs cutting edge technology and an infrastructure that is always ahead of its time. singapore is clearly built for progress. >> we have got a very pragmatic, efficient, and if i might say, clean government, which has tremendous foresight, the long term in its planning, excellent vision. perhaps able to see things in the future that other countries in asia were not able to see. one example is in financial services. they said place infrastructure for singapore to do very well. we are the fourth largest exchange traded location in the world. $250 million of trading going on every day in singapore. we are one of the largest fund manager centers in asia. more than $1 trillion being managed. we have the busiest port in the world. remember, singapore was a country with nothing. w

the mainline, stockton and the marina. the one california is a major bust the comes through the district, and a few other lines, of course, on the borders of our district. it is a huge deal for us, and we need to make sure we continue to provide a great service. we are transit first here, and people embrace that, but we need to make sure we have a reliable, robust public transportation system, so it is a big deal. we do have a lot of people in the district that drive cars, a lot of people that have families. i'm one of those as well. i take it was once in awhile, but frankly, the way we have arranged in our family is i spend my morning with my children, and time allowing, i take them to school in the morning, so i drive them with my car. i do not believe the way to achieve our goals is to make parking so inconvenient, so expensive, such a bad experience that people, so to speak, capitulate and take public transportation. that is not the way we are going to make it happen. we need to innovate, in my opinion, our public trans

over in the marina in addition to this woman is running for mayor. has her sons and two different locations. both the directly across from the marina, they're trained law up to this poll. if it were just a chair and table it might be ok, however there are political signed the pact, and that is if the below. >>stanley: the this man is running for sheriff to of his funds are stapled to the detour signs. has traffic zooms by they may be reading the political side instead of the warning sign. at the carroll sheet muni station in this woman is holding and italy from their son. for the record here is an absolute the nothing new grown with his until the fund holder ' the cup down on the crime. if you are running for office--my advice would be to brush up on bill laos, and especially the financial loss.--signage laws. >> vicki: coming up will get a look at steve jobs, the the bar of free about his life in some stunning revelations. and bills that costs tons. maybe i'll keep it... it adds character... right?

francis yacht club are parties to a release dated june 1, 2006, for property at the marina. the lease requires that the club paid the city of the lump-sum funds, to be used for improvements to the premises and/or marina. the least sets forth a process for identifying the improvements to be funded. the lease also provides that the city has approval rights over the lump-sum funds for improvements or repairs to the marina as determined by the general manager of the department. the club transmitted the final lump-sum installment to the city on september 14, 2007. also in 2007, the club and staff reach an agreement by certain improvement projects to be funded from the lump sum fun. a list of improvements prioritize the sea wall repair as the most important item. while it has always been the intent of the department to perform the sea wall repair, the project has not yet been initiated, as it has made the most sense to perform it in conjunction with the west harbor renovation. the west harbor is currently undergoing a $24.8 million improvement project, funded by a loan from the cal

i grew up in the marina district close to the palace of fine arts. my parents still live in the same set of plants that i live in. i went to grammar school here. i went to st. ignatius here. i am a proud wild cat. i went to college at loyola- marymount university in los angeles. i had a scholarship to play baseball. i remember coming down here to christie field, when my dad was in the military, seeing how the beaches have transformed into but we have today. you cannot beat the views, of course. it just holds summoning memories and i can come here with our kids, our family. i ended up going to ireland to get a master's degree at the university college of dublin. i went back to the states and went to law school at university of pennsylvania. then i came back, and choosing to live in san francisco was natural to me. when you are a child, you do not realize what you had until you leave home. i had the opportunity to live in los angeles, abroad in ireland, and there is no place like home, when you are from san francisco. i have been a corporate attorney a

you look in one direction and uc the marina bay and the skyline. the sky park is something that is jaw dropping. >> i heard that it was a $5 billion investment. >> we were probably about $5.70 usd. it makes it to the most -- $5.7 billion usd. it makes it the most expensive. >> singapore is clearly built for progress. >> we have a very pragmatic, efficient, and clean government that has tremendous foresight, long term in its planning, excellent vision, able to see things that perhaps many other countries in asia have not been able to see. one of the things they saw was financial services. they set in place the infrastructure to do extremely well. we have the fourth largest in trading exchange in the world. we're one of the largest fund management centers in asia. we have more than $1 trillionicn assets being managed at of singapore. we have the biggest spot in the world. the government has done a lot this was a country with nothing. we had no resources. everything was built and built through sound government policies with the effort that everything

. >> i am from the marina community association. the implication both of this and what they have during is to imply that organizations to not support use housing. we do. we think it is york responsibility to get the most that you can. the other problem with this project as you are deliberately done nine this to a good number of people that need it because you're going with a gold-plated cadillac project. it is your responsibility to guard the public money whether it comes from a federal fund or a state fund or a city fund. get the most for these people that need it the housing, don't give them some gold-plated projects that is not really accommodate 25 people. this is being billed for but $280 million a square foot. that is a ridiculous use of public money and it is your responsibility to make sure that the money that the city has is used to get the maximum benefit for these young people out here in need housing. i don't think the rest don't care if that is near my house or someone else. >> i am here today to ask you to give us answe

in the marina people said it felt like a minute. if you are covering yourself under the table and it's shaking what will happen in 30 seconds? you look up, where's the table. hold on to the table. if you are inside, stay in don't go from the known to the unknown. if you are downtown in an office building or shopping at macy's, do you run in the middle of the street? no. you stay where you are. how much time do you have? seconds. you have to make a decision within seconds. if you run to the street what will happen? >> get hit by a car. you have windows, glass to fall on you. high rise. if you know where you are, stay there than to go somewhere you don't know what's there. once it's shaking between 30 seconds to a minute and once it's over, things will fall and tip over. give it time to move around. of course, if there is danger coming to you, you want to move. so, picture these buildings. against the wall. will i go behind this wall? lean against it, cover my head? no. the pictures frames. if they come off and hit me on the top of the

i grew up in the marina district. i went through the 1989 earthquake in a personal way. my family home was severely damaged in the earthquake. we were forced out of our home for over a yeawhile it was repaired. we spent the first three weeks volunteering for the red cross shelter, seeing my neighbors getting tagged and told whether they could go back in or would never be able to go back into their homes. i witnessed firsthand what our public safety departments did. for that, we are forever grateful. it is a testament that we have mayor lee and the heads of all our public safety departments with us today. as a kid whose parents were founding members of nert, for me it is such a personal thing. it is something i am happy and proud to be part of. it is about preparing for the future. i am proud to serve on the disaster council with mayor lee. we are doing so much with the department of emergency management and city hall to make sure we are prepared for the next big one. it is also really important to remember the past. it is really important to honor those who serve us, kep

out put the fires out in the marina. you want to stop, look, listen and think. you size up the situation this is what we do in the fire department. you look at it. is it a little fire. a candle burning. do i get the fire extinguisher. is it a big fire can i put it out. >> it would cover the area the size of a table. anything bigger or high are than your head it's too big for you to put out with an extinguisher. wait until everybody is out. it's best to work in pairs. make sure you are the last one out of the room. do not lock it. avoid smoke and gases. cover your mouth and nose with a towel or sheet or dry cloth. if you have a jacket, if there is a flame on the way out put clothes o or wrap yourself in a blanket the layer of clothing will give you protection. have an emergency plan for earthquakes and fires. elevators, a safe place to be? always take it is stairs. when you go down the stairs hang on to the hand rails you will have people bump into you. pay attention to the floors, you have fourth floor, third floor, in ca

when there was the fire we had in the san francisco marina or the freeway collapses around the bay area but i wonder what the best way is to reach the average citizen -- hear i am, and to warn us about potential disasters, because we talk about it, we have meetings. people get together, and pretty soon you have forgotten that the marina was burning or that the freeway is down. and at the citizens of various counties and countries to be aware of the fact that these things do happen and that then a -- that they should have some way of preparing just in case on an individual basis. >> that is a lead-in to the october 20 -- it will be the 20th anniversary of the firestorm in oakland, and we're going to be doing three evans. we're going to be having a major safety preparedness fair. i think all of our cities have done a pretty good job. i like the 72-hour website san francisco has. it is very simply, easy to use. oakland is known for our neighborhood based training. we do it in 5 dedrick languages, our basic fre we do it in five t languages. we are organizing our neighbors block-by-block, pa

want to say on a very personal level, 816 has been a great staple mauer of chestnut street and the marina. you can never get a seat there, and i think it is a testament to the great service and food they have. every single person in my family, it is their favorite restaurant in the city. thank you for your continued service in the community, and continued success. we're honored to recognize you today, and congratulations. [applause] >> i know you are incredibly busy today, but it is such an honor for us to be here. i have worked in restaurants locally for about 24 years, and my husband has a few bars in town and helped us design and understand how to open a restaurant, and so many people ask to sit and meet with me with coffee, and we sponsor one education. we have two people taking their exam next week. it is the same for learning trades in hospitality, and we really feel the more that we can do for our own staff, the better the whole community will be and will continue to be, and it is just great to feel a part of this community through all of the charity event. we have about 75 -- we a
