we have gone to the state legislature to say that we've elected capture the ifb's districts. specifically, this is based on the misalignment of local investment and state-projected tax gains, based on the america's cup event in 2013. the report is expected to invest $55 million minimum of improvement for port properties. this will have the effect of having the port authority make those investments that offer long-term development rent credit to that effect. essentially it will be local investment. the city is also signed up to cover $32 million of the cost raised by the america's cup organizing committee or local taxes. what has been rejected is the $61 million of state revenue from the state from income taxes, sales taxes, etcetera, from the economic activity in 2013. based on those conditions, we have asked through the mechanism similar to what we did at pier 70 last year, that the city and port would be able to capture more of the revenue, the tax increment revenue through this mechanism. currently, we only have the ability to capture sixty-five cents of every tax increment

the federal government could be very small and federal and state governments could play a limited role to regulate the economy progress the country became a less agrarian those ideas changed of the state legislatures and congress started to play a more active role to regulate the economy. at first the supreme court did not like that has struck down as unconstitutional but came to see the laws were necessary and changed its view gradual lead to the constitutional law that we have now that allows for an extensive role with the state's regulating the economy. >> host: what is original ism one way or another the answer too any issues that we have today can be found by going back to the time when it was drafted where the amendments former ratified to see what they thought back then to take their ideas to apply them. >> host: does it work? >> guest: i don't think so. it is not a workable scheme for a couple of reasons but it is hard to figure out what they were thinking back then. that is what historians do and they disagree among themselves and sometimes they say they were confused and they were a clear but the deeper problems is even if we could figure out what they brought back then when united state

also, the state legislature removed all funding responsibility statewide of trial courts from local counties. it place them within the state legislature and the state itself. because of that, the court no longer receives any dollars from the city for a court-fund operations. the basics of the court are not funded by the city, but there are two functions the court has historically managed for the city which are still funded by you. that is why we are here today. that is staffing the civil grand jury and managing the indigent defense budget. the indigent defense budget is the majority of these funds that surround my $0.3 million. indigent -- $9.3 million. indigent defense fund is outlined in the united states constitution and is the legal obligation which is why it has not transfer to state funding and it's under a legal obligation for the city to provide under the california penal code. it is a fundamental principle of our justice system where all the queues are innocent until proven guilty and are afforded the right to legal representation. the court's role in all this at the initial branch

the state legislature is voting on a new proposal. brown announced the plan just yesterday with democratic leaders and they say that it will close a $9.6 billion deficit with a combination of more cuts and some newly projected revenues. the governor is abandoning his push for a special election this fall. he was trying to extend tax increases. some republicans are now angry. they say that the budget was passed without gop input. >> so we get in here around 3:45 a.m., give or take, and there was a little bit of excitement in the weather department. lawrence was just, you know, really excited about getting on the air today. >> a huge hunk of weather is coming our way. >> was it that obvious? you know what, we are probably just not going to see another cold front like this until we get into fall. and indeed we are seeing that cold front moving in right now. cloudy skies in the bay area and the rain has started to fall to our north. you can see it up towards santa rosa some moderate amounts of rainfall in this direction but it's sagging f

governor has proposed they pass taxes at the state level to extend, but there seems to be a viewpoint that perhaps he may not have the votes in the state legislature to pass those taxes. in that case we're prepared to consider passing a tax here locally that would bridge the gap that the state would not be able to do. that would be coming toward our general fund, if we're able and permitted to do that. we're looking at the condo conversion fee with a renewed effort because of the number of years that people have been waiting in a line for a conversion at the same time in those negotiations with members of the community, including affordable housing advocates. they have conditions upon which the city is seriously considering adopting as a way forward to potentially have some additional revenues based upon conversions that have been in line for a number of years. those are the ideas. we have others that we have considered, but they're going to be more difficult to deal with because of the required two-thirds vote that are conditions that the state impossesses on us -- imposes on us. >> thank you. the reason seniors come to every town hall meeting is
