if you look at seattle suddenly it has its own unique features but i would say their unique features for every city what is not unique and what is all encompassing nationally is the rapid decline in living standards for the majority of the people for the ninety nine percent you see a never ending race to the bottom you'd especially are looking into an abyss of low wage jobs student debt and just a really bleak future so everywhere there's a seeking of alternatives and in seattle socialist alternative has won the election for city council we also ran a campaign in minneapolis where time more ran as a candidate he's been a long time division and occupy homes campaign and he came very close to winning so i think the conditions for the left for alternatives to democrats and republicans to build their forces exist the question is are we going to take advantage of that and i would say that we don't even need to speculate look at the evidence already oh you know go nobody was talking about fifteen dollars an hour people were making fun of us political pundits you know with the number of articles on how ou

san francisco is a unique city and our paratransit program reflects this. we have a network of services, including sf access van service, paratransit taxi, including wheelchair accessible ramp taxi and group van which serves groups of individuals going to a single location like a senior center.

[music] >> hi, my name is fred lein. i'm most proud of driving a ramp taxi since the beginning of the program in 1994.

city? >> i think this is a unique time in city government. i've worked in city government for 20 years now, and i don't find the polarization within the decision-makers, the elected officials that lead our city. i know that there are differences, but they just -- i don't think that people walk into this building trying to figure out how to blunt somebody else's agenda, and i did feel that way for better on for worse on some issues. so, i'm open to any criticism and i'm open to anyone saying we're not succeeding because that person is saying they care and they want to see things done differently. and, so, i never mind -- i do ask people to think about homelessness like a fourth grader would. all of you are parents and i think when you see children look at the issue of homelessness, and i see it through my seven-year old all the time. i see how she looks at people, when we interact, which stop to talk to people, when i give them a card

chattanooga was one of the things that -- what is unique is our city has been able to keep the civic, business, and cultural center downtown. so many cities across our country have not. we have a lot of dntrepreneurialism there an some great manufacturing especially recently rate -- brought in a great company. it is filled with people who are so unique. people who give of themselves to make other people's lives better. it is a very unique place in that regard. if you look at the outdoor amenities, i just yesterday rode my bike with my wife elizabeth along the riverfront which again, as a community, we is an outstanding place to live. i do not know about community that has a better quality of life in america than chattanooga. it interesting thing is, keeps getting better. we have been able to build on the successes of people who have come before us and i could not be more proud of the people of my community and i could not love living there more than i do. >> so based on that, what advice as you look at other communities, larger cities like detroit certainly suffering a series of probl

we're at a really unique restaurant today. it's half-city, half-country, and all the idea of one even more unique couple. part chefs, part greeters, even part busboys, ron and his wife terri gilliland do a little bit of everything at their wildly popular roxy restaurant in sacramento. >> uh, it's nice to be able to wear different hats and not be tied down to the same thing every day. uh, both in the restaurant and in the agricultural industry, things change daily, uh, and no day is the same. there's always something different that goes on, whether good or bad. >> but their jobs don't just end at the restaurant. when the last customers have folded up their napkins and put their forks down, this couple is on to their next job. that's right. in addition to being full-time restaurateurs, they're also full-time ranchers. at their lucky dog ranch in nearby dixon, the couple often begins and ends each day with their aptly named dog lucky and tend to a herd of 3,500 strong. you see, ron and terri consider being at the ranch more cathartic than chaot

mandatory that you use life safety for a particular hazard and it depended on on the unique characteristics of the city. this is my greatest crimp it's not restricted to facilities that have 5 thousand people the code says a classification can be used in moving other structures represent a stubble hazard i'm sorry. i'll repeat it 3 class buildings can include those were they represent a substantial hazard to human life in the case of human failure in other words, the 5 thousand people the 4 hundred people it's not mandatory those are examples. what do we have here we have a 42 floor structure with a culture heritage element it is a miniature delay on the ground floor and a room is invited in to look at things that's like a museum and important importantly there are outdoor facilities that can handle more people it's right next to the pg&e facility and it's inviting the public to come in. my opinion that is the wisdom of maximum standards we want to make sure a appropriate standard is cello. you can see in the earlier slide there's another profile forbid the facilities that are essential. those performa

and unique and in the mission we have micro neighborhood that are blocks apart very unique that way. i think the city plan is too cookie cutter. one plan does not fit all. i think the eastern neighborhood plans talks about not just density, but it also talks about the sensitivity, nature of the neighborhood. we have to remember to look at all the other chapters and not just transit quarter piece. so i feel that 4 stories and truly afford able units is what best fits this neighborhood. what i mean by truly affordable units is that immigrant families can purchase or rent or any other low income folks in the neighborhood. we have seen a lot of affordable inclusionary units that are not affordable to people in the neighborhood. there is restaurants that have come into the mission are not here anymore. they are investors and not traditional mom and pops. most of the neighborhood can't afford to eat there. i hope you can uphold your decision made in december. thank you. >> first i want to confirm some e-mail that i maybe able to speak although it's not evidence. >> that's correct. ms. gamez is in the matte

city. this project is a unique opportunity to take underdeveloped lot and provide this kind of housing in a neighborhood that is established as well as being transit friendly and this project makes it a typical and what's offered in the city. this meets the family needs. in general information what we feel this project is a sensitive balance between providing more housing in san francisco with an approach to the development. thank you very much and we are available for questions. >vice-president cindy wu: thank you. let's open up for public comment. i have one speaker card, william lowe. >> thank you, ladies and gentlemen and gentlemen of the commission. my name is bill lowe, property owner adjacent to the east. this has been a 20 something year odyssey. they bought this property quite a while ago. at that time i was told that within six 6 six 6 months they would be rebuilding and developing. i have gone to community meetings and talked to doug vu, rick crawford who came down and representing the city before doug vu. i have had primarily two issues with the developers and they have never be
