unit. further more, i would like to talk about fairness. we about the our home in 2013 because we wanted to live in a single-family home. it was marketed and sold to us as a single-family home. in 2014, based on a false accusation, the building department asked us to stop work and let them research whether or not it was a single-family home. after six months, they did a lot of research and confirmed that it was, indeed, a single-family home. we admit that mistakes were made by our prior contractors and architects, who signed and stamped our drawings as accurate. as owners, we've diligently all means available to correct the mistakes and move forward. our proposal is to keep the building as we bought it, a single-family home. right-sized, for one family. we're actually reducing the footprint of our building by approximately 100 square feet. and we're adding about 700 square feet of habitable space by adding dormers to get a little third bedroom and through excavation. the original building o

quite a diverse unit. but to really get to the heart of the matter, we have to go back to just after world war ii. as you all know we fought world war ii with our allies, france, britain of course the commonwealth countries a number of others with the soviet union. we started to realize it soviet union was perhaps not the partner we wanted to continue going to the ball with so to speak. stalin's rhetoric will not -- the czechoslovakia. and the berlin air lift in 1949/1950. were all signs that our relationships with the russians was going badly. a gentleman by it name of george kennen who wrote a very long telegram out of moscow outlined his had worries and fears and that really outlined american policy for the next 30 years. tilted the united states towards containment of the soviet union and became even more offensive in the 1950s when korea was -- when south korea was ifvaded by north korea. of course it domino theory was beginning to be explained for one of the reasons of the containment theory. the it

it's going from four units to two units for the building, although upon site visit, only three unitswere found to exist today, but this is going from four under city records from four units to two. >>vice president richards: so looking to entertain a motion -- i mean, maybe the project architect has more about the legal status of the building under the 3r report, and we can address that. >>commissioner moore: the second point i'd like to make, and i agree with my other fellow commissioners, if the mayor's housing would step into the fray, somebody would be here and giving us a clear direction or would have something in writing in this particular package to substantiate the conversation. i do believe that's typically done that way, and for those reasons, at this moment, i cannot really entertain participate in any activity on this project. >>vice president richards: and maybe if you could also address the garages and whether or not they are in use. i had understood the garages to be vacant. >> regarding the three units versus the four units, we went through the site. we can't find any

first unit did. but this time with a cover that made sense. these guys were doing physical security vulnerability surveys for the ucom commander all across europe, africa, and the middle east. along with that mission, that's actually one of the security surveys in uganda. along with that mission, they're still doing the war time and ct mission. quite busy. and you can see that from the earlier pictures, the equipment has changed radically. one of the guys i interviewed for this book served in the unit in 1960. he saw the pictures in the book and said, it looked to him like the difference between u.s. army in world war i and going to star wars. which, yeah. along with the assault teams, which was the previous ones, we had sniper teams. and special weapons for opening doors. door opening devices, so to speak. that's not that door, but that's the kind of techniques you practiced to get into a room. that's a steel door, so there's an exceptionally difficult target. if anybody was directly on the other si

states ambassador to the united nations. nikki haley that specimen for the state a hostile place for the state of israel both the current and the previous secretary generals have objected to the un's disproportionate focus on israel it's a wrong that undermines the credibility of this institution and that in turn is harmful for the entire world i've often wondered why in the face of such hostility israel has chosen to remain a member of this body and then i remember that israel has chosen to remain in this institution because it's important to stand up for yourself israel must stand up for its own survival as a nation but it also stands up for the ideals of freedom and human dignity that the united nations is supposed to be about standing here today being forced to defend sovereignty and the integrity of my country the united states of america many of the same thoughts have come to mind the united states is by far the single largest contributor to the united nations and its agencies we do this in part in order to advance our

housing units. over a 10-year housing balance reporting, i will be reporting on the third report which was submitted to you in late may and covers the period from the first quarter of 2007. to quarter 4 2016. this will be the third presentation under housing balance before the board of supervisors mandated. so why a housing balance? one stated goal of the ordinance is to ensure the data is meeting affordable housing targets city-wide and within neighborhoods informs the approval process for new housing development. just to remind the commissioners, here separate housing affordable production targets cited on the man da*itsz and each have its own monitoring and reporting requirements. the housing balance report gives context to these different passing production goals. the housing elements mandated by the state to be updated periodically sets a production goal of about 8,000 net new units built between 2015 and 2022. this is commonly called rena or regional housing needs allocation goals. 57% will be

keep four units in the existing building and build two new units. so, because the lot split would result in a density that is not permitted by code basically. they would be having -- you're basically intensifying a nonconforming condition and the planning code and zoning doesn't allow you to do that. there is no way for them to split the lot and keep the number of units within the four existing units or even the three existing units and still build a new unit adjacent to it. >> ok. that sounds to me -- that clarifies. that sounds to me like a bureaucratic loophole that we should maybe talk more about it. i don't think we've had as many questions about the two new units maybe we did. i don't remember us focus a conversation on that in our previous hearing. >> can i ask to clarify -- on that, what code is dictating that? >> the zoning. it's rh-2 -- >> i know but if you split the lot, you have a vacant lot. >> it goes down to the creation of the lots and you can't have -- you can't do lot splits that basically force noncon frommer -- nonconforming lots

in the rad units. many were at the end of their useful lives. we have preserved many units that were otherwise lost and not habitable because there was no funding to operate them and operate them as habit there was a political compromise but we brought units that were sitting vacant, unused because of lack of funding back into circulation and housing for our most vulnerable population. thank you. >> on that point, i agree the rehab of public housing is of outmost important. i thought it would be a deduction had we lost it rather than the maintenance. i agree it would have beos

of the united states sowing discord among the people of the united states by associating the imagine industry dignity of the presidency with causes rooted in white supremacy, bigotry, racism, anti-semitism, white nationalism or neonewt seism on one or more of the following occasions. on august 15, 2017, donald john trump made a widely published statement criticizing a group of -- characterizing a group of anti-semites, bigots, racists, white nationalists and cue clubblings chancemen who rallied -- and ku klux klansmen who rallied in charlottesville, virginia, as fine people. the group returned to virginia at the statue of robert e. lee chanting, you will not replace us. since this event on october 7, the president has made many widely published statements about many things, including the national football league, but has not made one widely published statement condemning the hate groups for returning to the place where an innocent person lost her life at the hands of hate. on november 29, 2017, donald john trump shared three videos posted by a leader of a british political party cons

united states no longer stands by when israel is unfairly attacked in the united nations and the united states will not be lectured to by countries that lack any credibility when it comes to treating both israelis and palestinians fairly. it is no coincidence that the historic peace agreement between egypt and israel and between jordan and israel were both signed on the white house lawn. if and when there is a historic peace agreement between israelis and palestinians, there is a good likelihood that it too will be signed on the white house lawn. why is that? it is because the united states has credibility with both sides. israel will never be and should never be bullied into an agreement by the united nations or any collection of countries that have proven their disregard for israel's security. to my palestinian brothers and sisters, i can tell you with complete confidence that the united states is deeply committed to achieving a peace agreement between the israelis and the palestinians. we have demonstrated that commitment over many years and with the investment of large quantities of

is cutting the united nations budget by more than a quarter of a billion dollars but why is washington squeezing the u.n. and what are the long term implications of this scott this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program how about two hundred eighty five million dollars that's the amount expected to be slashed from the u.n. operating budget next year the united states says it's negotiates have a cut to eliminate what it calls inefficiency and overspending by the organization the u.s. ambassador to the united nations nikki haley said we will no longer let the generosity of the american people be taken advantage of or remain unchecked we'll continue to look at ways to increase the u.n. ziff efficiency while protecting our interests the move comes off to a tense week for the u.n. the general assembly voted to condemn the u.s. decision to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and move its embassy of hailey responded by threatening to cut funding to the u.n. america will put our embassy in jerusalem that is what the american people want us to do and it is the right thing to do.

i've been a proud representative of the united states at the united nations for nearly a year now. this first time i've exercised the american right to veto resolution in the security council. the exercise of the toe isn't something the united states has often. we haven't done it in more than six years. we do it with no joy about with no reluctance. the fact that this veto is being done in defense of american sovereignty and independence of america's role in the middle east peace process is not a source of embarrassment for us. it should be an embarrassment for the remainder of the security council. as i pointed out when we discussed the topic ten days ago, i will once again note the features of the president's announcement on jerusalem that are the most relevant. the president took great care not to prejudge final status negotiations in any way including the specific boundaries of the sovereignty in jerusalem. that remains the subject to be negotiated only by the party. the position is fully in line with the previous security council resolution. the president was also careful to s

favorable ratings in the united states if he once again becomes the champion of the united states and show how so many of those muslims around the world hate the united states for taking a position like he did in terms of jerusalem becoming the capital of israel i think he will live on the idea that we need to fight terror we need to find extremism and we need to find those who hate america around the world who did such a decision unites muslim leaders around the world could it unite countries like turkey and saudi arabia that have had somewhat tense relations in recent years i'm still waiting for you to ask me about the about the about the cons right right and that's exactly what the council is because look you might gain certain leverage you might gain a certain popularity it might be politically savvy in washington for president trump but in the long. on the long term if not on the short term this will have bizarre strips consequences for the united states around the world for a good number of reasons but i will summarize them in three one the united states cannot be trusted. why b

the project will maintain three units and introduce an accessory dwelling unit and existing two unit on the property under a separate building permit. the subject property is located on the northeast corner of castro and 21st street, in a neighborhood that consists of residential single-family, dwrelgs. [ inaudible ] -- the department received one letter in support and five letters opposing the project. copies are available for the commission. the department recommends not taking dr and approving the conditional use authorization for the following reasons: the project will provide a three bedroom family sized unit that is of compatible mass and scale with the neighborhood and consistent with the residential design guidelines. the project will result in a net gain of one unit through the proposed accessory dwelling unit in the building adjacent on-site. this edu would add to the housing demand throughout the city. no additional tenants will be displaced as a result of this project. given the scale of the project, there will be no significant impact on existing capacitor local street s

the united states is by far the single largest contributor to the united nations and its agencies. we do this in part to advance her values and interests. when that happens our participation in the un produces great good for the world. together we see, close, and educate desperate people. we hold out machines accountable. we do this because it represents who we are, it is our american way. but, we will be honest with you, when we make generous contributions to the un, we also have a legitimate expectation that are good willis recognized and respected. when a nation is singled out for attacking this organization, that nation is disrespected. what's more, that nation is asked to pay for the privilege of being disrespected. in the case of the united states, we are asked to pay more than anybody else for that privilege. unlike in some un member countries, the united states government answers to its people. as such, we have an obligation to acknowledge when our capitals being poorly spent. we have an obligation to demand more for investment. if our investment fails we have an obligation

ambassador to the united nations. what we witnessed here today in the security council is an insult it won't be forgotten it's one more example of the united nations doing more harm than good in addressing the israeli palestinian conflict. now under rule thirty seven of the united nations any country that is affected by a resolution has the right to address the meeting of the security council so we heard from both israel and palestine and the palestinian representative basically accused the united states of joking with the international community or teasing the international community member now at this point we saw what is a rare occurrence in the un security council chamber there was a vote among the security council that was fourteen to one with the entire international community essentially united against the united states the usa voted against the resolution and the international community disagreed and almost unanimously there was a unanimous opposition to the united states in the security council however it is

to focus on a united s.p.d.given the fact that so many delegates here seem to be against that idea of another grand coalition i think. proposal tables yesterday by the bureau of the party unanimously adopted in the bureau of the party for the opening of negotiations first of all about content to improving the internal situation the best execution in germany improving the situation of the european union and got an overwhelming majority of the around i think ninety percent of the delegates voted in craver that open. a way for negotiations with an open learn yes for sure between early elections and grand coalition of the american is possible but it depends from how we are able to agree on quantum that's the most important point for us and how confident are you mr shows that the conservatives will actually also be interested in that idea of yours of a united states of europe i think this is a proposal of the israelis since nineteen twenty five. to discuss how to improve especially of the brakes of the remaining twen

one-bedroom, 2 24- two-bedroom units and 7 three-bedroom units. the project is in a 65a height and bulk district. zoning district is rc3, which requires authorization for height over 50 feet. street frontage over 50 feet. it requires variances related to rear yard and dwelling unit exposure. it proposes to meet the inclusionary housing program by paying a fee or participate in the mayor's office of housing and community development small sites program. [please stand by]cati . >> that will elegantly integrate into the neighborhood environment. it will add 41 units of housing with a good mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units, with over 75% multibedroom units suitable for families. it will add residents to the neighborhoods to boost the local businesses and stimulate the economy. it will add over 25 -- 2700 square feet of dramatic neighborhood serving retail space to a prominent city thoroughfare. it will provide.75 parking spaces perunit, which is lower than the original 1:1 parking spaces perthe city. since # 5% of the units are sizeable two and

united nations because the united nations spends so much money in the united states in new york so in so many ways the united nations among other global institutions serve american interests even if sometimes in the case of israel they continue to criticize or to condemn israel simply because the united states continues to defend israel and reject and veto any criticism or condemnation of israeli occupation and violation of international law so really this more than blackmail there's a certain. type approach when the american president goes like this and says you will pay and we will make a lot of money off you that's not that's not the global system that america built i don't know how my naive thinking oh start rethinking that this goes ahead happens behind the scenes anyway it's just an extraordinary thing for the president to say it publicly but there are just tuning in for in this diplomatic channels where people say make sure you vote the right way surely that's been happening for other yeah but i mean there's also something to be said about. going public with intimidating leader

that i proposed at the board of supervisors delivers a 95-unit project with 18% of the units being on site affordable which is now 17 units instead of two that was originally proposed. again, something i'm very proud that we're here in front of you today with. when the bonus program failed last year, i discussed trying it out as a pilot with this s.u.d. to be clear, the numbers really didn't pencil for the project. the land deal was signed with the old inclusionary threshholds so that is why we went with the s.u.d. and again, i very much want to thank my staff who's worked with your staff and i know it was a prior member of the planning department for working very hard on this. and draft this legislation with the support of the staff all before it passed. however, when home s.f. passed, they no longer wanted to support the s.u.d. and insisted on a home s.f. project. i want to be clear about a few points. first of all, home s.f. project doesn't pencil for the site. if it were home s.f., it would have a lower chance of getting financed as well which would result in potentially no agreem

domestic audience the concern is not what happens in the united nations but how to use the united nations and antagonism to the united nations to whip up support from these right wing constituencies that they are trying to build here in the united states it's a very dangerous game that they're. laying the opposition was not simply opposition to the u.s. move around jerusalem it was a much broader expression of outrage towards united states bullying of the un and un member states the trumpet ministration is not the first in u.s. history to do this kind of bullying some of the language was very reminiscent to similar threats and bribes and punishments that were issued by the bush administrations both both president bushes when they could not get the support they wanted for wars against iraq in one nine hundred ninety and then again in two thousand and three but the difference here was the blatant nature of it the when president trump was willing to say we don't care specifically those were his words we don't care about the impact of cutting aid on these impoverished nations if they dared to

was the united states toward this war effort?good question, a difficult question to answer in absence of the polling data that we had today. there was no question that the divisions which we were discussing earlier persisted. war, and thatto for several months since 1917 when you have all the acceleration of these events happening which i agree is the key military affect, this one thing, it sets up the work, it is the community of effect and harry puts those who are opposing war or intervention on the defensive. it is very difficult to sustain that argument over time and it gets more difficult in early 1917. that being said, there are still divisions, you bet. if you look at the vote in congress on the war message, they are fairly decisive, there are a few dissenting votes in it is a decisive vote. the opponents of intervention had drawn a line in the sand a little bit earlier and the local example is senator stone from missouri was it wasn't like, he was for wilson in 1912, it opposes those will -- war message in the run up to 1

of the past said that they see the united nations is taking over the role of the united from the united states they say the united states are totally discredited by this move by trying to recognize and in many ways i think that what we're seeing is a release of a pent up frustration over many years of what many palestinians and many arab super leaders in the region see that washington isn't an honest broker and whether the united nations can play that role is very difficult to say given the fact that israel has been very reluctant had any dealings with the united nations and it does take two countries to make a peace but going forward the message from mahmoud abbas and many other leaders including the turkish president is the united states has no role in resolving the conflict in the middle east so muslim nations get together they get they convene this extraordinary meeting they make this declaration then watt's do we expect action. well in fact you're right to many people for this this summer we just be tough rhetoric and little else but what it seems is the message from this meeting g

so, what, would you say -- 5 units, 10 units, 15? pat: what's the price point on this unit today? the price on this one is $79,000. it does have a couple upgrades. pat: you're ordering multiple units, then what does that do to the discount? steve: when you're buying half a million dollars, you've got your discount. when we get over $750,000, if we get an order past that, we will increase the discount. and then, if we get past $1.5 million, we'll increase the discount even a little bit more. lemonis: retroactive. steve: retroactive, right. lemonis: and so, does that seem like an arrangement that we can move forward on? pat: absolutely. lemonis: awesome. pat: yeah. the relationship has evolved. lemonis: thank you very much. jeff: thank you very much. lemonis: impressing an industry leader like els is no small task, and the fact that there's a real potential for big orders is a big accomplishment. what's changed with steve, guys? tracy: i feel like he's actually reaching out to a lot of our employees, and they're recognizing it and they're seeing it. austin: i've heard from the floor

and 2008 we009 started our negotiations with the united dates. -- united states. you had an excellent team, a professional team, a smart team led by your former undersecretary. it was very difficult for her because they was a gap of negotiations between the united states and russia. it was necessary to create something special for such negotiations, and for the russian federation it was difficult to do the same. but we managed and we agreed. say 17t about -- you hours per day together trying to understand what kind of concerns we had at the time. of course we can be criticized today by our opponents regarding the documents, but at the time it was the best solution in the interest of the american and russian people. you are right. we have bilateral conversations on various issues of arms control, nonproliferation, and sometimes we have some differences. but we are great nations. we have our own interests, national interests. it's important to respect national interest of each other. if we can see such from our partners, under any circumstances we can find a solutio

well the united states should not. act by oppression and coercion on other states i think is it's there's not a fan's this is not compatible this he sovereign equality of stays states must be able to all pronounce themselves freely in the general assembly of the united nations and take said decisions freely without i outside hindrance i think and if president trump takes it personally is this an altar parameter because it's not a personal matter between him and the palestinians he's a president of the united states and he should take care of the interests of the united states and also of israel i think we also have to take care of see long term interests of the jewish people who have an interest in peace and stability in the middle east how unprecedented is this move by haley sending a memo to one hundred eighty countries basically instructing them how to vote does this happen knowledge time in today's united nations well you know you can always has a head of state you can always suggest stars or countries that they sh

states or rely on the united states either for their own security and survival or rely on the united states in terms of conflicts that they themselves are waging either amongst themselves or against other states and in that context i don't think they're going to privilege anything concerning the palestinians over the their bilateral relations with with the united states and i think you know nevertheless it's it's not meaningless that at a time when arab states and governments are so divided over the various conflicts in the region syria yemen libya and so on that they could at least. not be divided by the palestine question as well that's not meaningless but under the circumstances it's certainly not particularly significant either you now have what might be called an incipient rebellion in the occupied territories that needs concrete support and assistance and none of that has been forthcoming either from the arab league or from the organization of the islamic conference similarly these states could for example have put in provisions to make their own relations with third parties wh

that's analogous to what's happening the united states and this best case scenario here in the united states has fifty odd sites with communities schools that i looked at that are a mile from burnside it's also similarly being exposed to these clouds of toxins and you know there's a long fight to bring attention to the issues of the burn pits overseas there's been no fight to do this similar so you know take any sort of action here in the united states no measurement of what is in the pollution that's you know dead. that's touching the school grounds or the residential areas around these bases no statement from the department defense or my reporting that that was worthwhile or something that they should do and really i mean and that's with laws that are supposed to limit this and promise that it's not and say so i'm glad that you mentioned the really lack of some might say accountability others might say recognition i do want to share this because as we mentioned the department of veterans affairs declined to join our show today but this is what it says on their website at this time r

units, family units on market street, and amongst those ten units, one of those units is going to be an affordable unit. we have worked with the neighbor throughout the whole process from the very beginning. original design, we honored their light wells. we've always known they've been there, and that they'd be an issue. we have incorporated larger light wells that are required. the only way to get family units is to do the building that we have designed. i think that our design might have a few problems, building code, whatnot, but they do not supply family housing. they're small units, and we feel that this project, as said, we realize there is an impact to them. no question. any new building in that slot will cause impacts, but on balance, we feel that providing an affordable unit and five family units in this situation is well worth that balance, and as i said, we have designed this project with their light wells very strongly in mind, and we have gone through huge amount of revisions all along the way, including some requested by planning and, you know, this is kind of 11th hour

on to the news the united states the united nations has vetoed a draft resolution with donald trump's decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel all fourteen of the members voted for the resolution joining me live on the line now is. correspondent so kelly as i understand the security council meeting devoted everything's been brought to take you through what happened . yes the resolution proposed by egypt which didn't specifically name the united states but simply referred to what it called an unfortunate decisions regarding jerusalem well that resolution was voted down but the vote was fourteen to one the united states was the one country opposing the resolution and under the united nations rules because the united states is a permanent member of the security council that no vote that veto nullified and defeated the resolution the usa stood alone in the security council chamber voting against this resolution and now we've heard from u.s. ambassador nikki haley she's called this resolution an insults and she's gone on to say some other interesting things about it this is

security council so really great humiliation for the united states at the united nations foundation i thank you very much for something that's up stay with us here on al-jazeera next up it's inside so it will be about the full news hour in about twenty five minutes away. a new leader and hopes of a new era in south africa is expected to clean up the image of the ruling a.n.c. and revive the fortunes of off because biggest economy but consider all the posts i live up to those challenges.

i would like to point out, as president of the united states, we have to remember that the united states itself has such an important relationship with this country in terms of keeping us safe as well. before we rush to make those urge alli would honorable members to keep that in mind. i hope he has heard this morning tout how seriously we take make sure all is illegal and extreme content is taken down from twitter and other online platforms and that they take more of an active role themselves in making sure this material does not stay up there. attempt, the -- sought to organize a march. nine people showed up, but that is nine to many. there is still work to do to make sure that the views of bdl and britain first do not represent this country and disabuse those who hold those views and do more. >> absolutely right. they in no way represent the views of the british people as he and i and the rest of the honorable members know them to be. as has been pointed out in the house today, the real danger of encouraging activity and extremism is increasingly online and that is where we are focusi

as a result, 75% of the units at 10a will be two, three, four and five bedroom units. as mentioned in prior presentations to the commission, under community redevelopment law, the four and five bedroom units on this site fulfill the exact unit replacement requirements. 10a will feature two on site family childcare units, ground floor retail space and on site parking for residents as well as the standard components of affordable housing development for families including common area and a place for young children a community room and property offices and the use of green building techniques. an 84 space plus one car share space as well as bike storage for 52 bikes is planned for residents which will serve more than half of the resident households. now provide information on the cost providing parking the cost of the parking places the burden on of $30,000 on each of the project units if parking were to increase to serve 100% of households at least 12 affordable house units would be lost and over all cost increase to a level which tax credit and tax he element 'em would

i don't mind the unit in the two-unit building. i just think it's -- it's too intense if intensefication of that one lot, and it could be solved relatively easily. i also -- like commissioner richards, i don't mind kind of the more modern architecture. i think it could fit in a little more, but to me, it should be kind of a smaller, you kn you know, building on that lot. there certainly are large buildings on castro as you go up and down, but not also with kind of the larger building on the back of the lot. so i just think it's too big for -- for that site to add all this to. so i mean i don't think we're going to design this thing tonight and figure out what to do, but as i look at the floor plan, there's a family room on the ground floor, and the top floor is used for kind of a large master suite. could you kind of put the master suite on the ground floor and not have a top floor? certainly, i think the deck is a little too much on the top of this building. so that's my general take. i think it's got to kind of go back and figure
