our capacity, when they have a major project or controversy, or an issue, they make a referral to us to look at the environmental report. they will ask us to look early in the process to see if the analysis is adequate and correct, and they will take our opinions and analysis in consideration. we don't have -- they and their commission make the final judgment. finally, on the proactive information, like the healthy development tool, there are no regulations. we typically will, when we do one of these evaluations, we will bring to the planning department and project proponent our analysis and a set of recommendations. we will have a dialogue with them. "ok, we can do these things. we cannot do these things." those have to do with improving the neighborhood, like improving parks and transportation conditions. supervisor campos: final question before we open it for public comment. i know that there have been concerns about a specific project that has been raised. this is not the purpose of this in terms of our discussion. it is about the general guidelines to follow. what do you presently have

it is the same technology we use to virtualize servers. it is looking at an opportunity to leverage technology we have already invested in. we are trying to look at smaller, underserved departments that have come to us begging for use computers, whenever they could get to improve their usage, and see if perhaps this supervisor kim: i do not want to discourage looking into that. those are just some of the concerns i had about moving in that direction. i am happy looking at that direction. the last question i have is not an area i am super familiar with, but looking at open source software. i know for a lot of the software we by there is often a free alternatives. worrying about security and all of that, -- >> we actually passed a policy encouraging departments that any time they do and rfp for a solution, that they consider open source software for their solution and hope we can save the city money. we have had some limited success and there is concern about the sustainability of that model, there is a concern it will adopt a big critical to the operatio

i think it's important for us to look at our rebuilding transportation in this country. that would put people back to work right now. construction back to work right now. and it would get done work that america needs to get done. we used to have the best roads and bridges and airports. we don't anymore. and that's not good for our long-term competitiveness. so we could put people to work right now and make sure that we're in a good position to win in the future as well. i think -- i'm going to get to it. i think that it's important for us to look at the tax code and figure out if there are ways we can simplify it and work on small businesses or startup businesses and say you don't have to pay capital gains, because we want you to get out this and start up a business. that's important. making sure s.b.a. is helping to finance small businesses. so there's a whole range of things we can do. right now scrb has a better deal -- south korea has a better deal in trading than we do. you see a whole bunch of cri kwan cars here in the united states but you don't see any american ca

to get people downtown? is there an opportunity, or should we be looking at some kind of supplemental services as well? and we will continue to use the ted program data and other things to look at that. this concept is not developed to the extent that the n-express was developed. it was talked about during the service restoration task force last fall, but in light of the success -- initial success, the six-month trial that was scheduled for the n-express, i to get would be worthwhile for us to look at supplementing service with this kind of thing. finally, our parking patrol officers do an excellent job in a real difficult environment, especially off the 280 freeway, opening the streets. between what we can do is take a look at the whole corridor from the bridge. the only thing i would add is that we have been delayed twice in the last six months in the to get lee. we have lost not just rush-hour but a major time span for the drawbridge that is going up that the port authority owns. we're going to talk with them about making sure that we -- to see if we can work with them to limit the hours that that bridge opens. i meant to add

i am going to challenge us to look beyond what our experience says is possible. they do not confine themselves to what they think can be done. they focus on what must be done. and we must find a way to work together. not for ourselves. not for our organizations. but because there are children out there that need us to. there are children out there who need us to dream and take risks and do more than we ever thought was possible. thank you very much. >> give it up for john osaki. >> this is at community award for serving san francisco youth. and now we have a special award. this is a surprise. i am not going to ruin it. >> good afternoon everybody. i am mernella woods. i am a social worker from the juvenile admission. today, well, as we all know, those of us who have anything to do with the juvenile justice system. there is a lot of bad news that we hear a lot of time. there's a lot of heart ache and a lot of tragedy. before we get to the good news part, which we're going to do today. i would like us to take a moment of silence to honor and remember the youth who w

"men's health" magazine says the most active city in the country is seattle, followed by san francisco and oakland. two big bay area cities. and then washington, d.c. followed by salt lake city. they looked at a number of things. how much do you exercise. how often do you exercise. how many families are watching 15 hours or more of tv a week. that was considered negative. or buying 11 or more video games in a year. that was considered negat

to your question on the tower, which actually is an interesting discussion. commissioner more -- moore, her look at the project, had great confidence and comfort with what we were doing. she said she wanted us to look at one thing, which was -- was there the ability to relocate a tower that was on one of the more westerly parcells, the more easily parcel. we said we would do the analysis, and that there was no problem, and the commissioner said she did not want to make a problem out of this. we were happy about the ability to do it, so that is what you see before you. as mike said, the height here, dealers talking about buildings of 250 feet in height, and we were able to look at what a model profile was, and we worked closely with the department on what the modeling look like, and in the end, i think they are happy with what the neighborhood will become. it is a real opportunity. you have heard it from people in the community. they see an opportunity, after 30 years of being vigilant about what the opportunity was, that they will be able to do that. i guess the last thing i would say is you had this up before the commission. you rely upon them as supervisors and their guidance, and i think

to figure it out for us. that's what i'm really looking for. i feel hesitant about this. it just feels odd to me that they would come onboard as someone we have been working with and that is really again great. they have been available but i'm not all that pleased with what they presented for myself as a board member. it is not -- looking at the things that i want us to look at and with the lens that i think our board philosophy reflects. that's what i'm -- i mentioned at the last meeting that i was at when they were all present, the principles and so i want to be clear. we have a vision and a philosophy. i would love to see them start mirroring some of that because i don't see it whern it comes to the board. you may have that opportunity in conversations with them. it is just not evident to me as a board member but i appreciate there is a long-term discussion going on because i think there is a need. thank you very, very much. >> any further congressmens? role call, please. >> thank you. [role call vote] >> thank you. item q is the superintendent's proposal first reading.

finally you asked us to look at some of the benefits and consequences of barging, and there are many, particularly related to -- the benefits relating to getting truck traffic offer of your streets. reducing greenhouse gasses emissions. but on the other side, when you put barge traffic on the waterways, there is potential damage there. according to studies we have been able to read in discussions with port people here and in new york, it is sometimes more costly to actually use the barging depending on how much transfer time and transfer distance is involved to get the material to the barges and then from the barge to the final destination. that is a brief overview of what's in the report. we would be happy to answer any specific questions at this time. supervisor campos: thank you. one of the things that i began noting when we emembarcaderoed on this study is that one of the roles that lafco's play in jurisdictions throughout the state of california is to provide information. the whole point of this endeavor here with the lafco is simply to give the commission and in turn give the re

there are some regulatory things that are not pro-business that are perhaps forcing some of us to look offshore and do things elsewhere. how do you balance those? >> can you give an example? >> the whistle-blower laws and rules, some of the regulatory rules related to energy, those kinds of things. >> let me tell you what the president's view is and it is mine as well. ultimately it is about balance. their parts of the economy where a regulations substantially relaxed behind the basic obligations of protection. the financial sector is the classic example. you have all lived with the consequences of foreign countries get that wrong. there are incredibly damaging consequences to growth and basic business help when you get that regulation wrong. there's a whole other range of public safety things with the risks will expose our citizens to. we have to get the balance better. we have to be careful not to overdo it, that we do not add to much too quickly, and too much of the burden on an economy that is still trying to dig out of the deep hole. we're trying to get the balance better. part of

>> the charter amendment asks us to look specifically at a couple of items, so i can refer to those. i am looking for the language in the charter amendment so i can be specific on that front. this section is 88909 and as specifies taking into cost of payroll, expenditures for training police officers and cost of recruits and trainees and field officer training costs, contributions made by members participating in drop in the city's share on drop funds and and the cost related to the implementations of the program. >> i understand that through that prism, but does the city itself have a definition of costa neutrality? do we on our own operating plane -- definition of cost of neutrality? does that give us a margin of error say 1% above or below whenever the baseline determination is once we enter into these kind of contracts. that is what i am trying to understand. >> in this summary front section to the charter amendment, it refers to a simpler view of it -- shall not impose new costs as a result of the participation of police officers in the drop. supervisor mirkarimi: it is a little

it's not visible enough for us to look at the structure and make sure it's sound. >> reporter: he is mmunicating with the scouts through his cell phone that is able to connect to a hand radio. we were able to talk to ranger mike hanna. >> we've gained access to the other side of the river. >> reporter: but it won't be safe enough to cross until thursday. >> you're up in the mountains. it's beautiful. we have people that come in from nevada to get out of the heat. it's part of the adventure. >> reporter: it is part of the adventure. those scout also be crossing over that foot bridge sometime tomorrow and will be home saturday with a lot of stories to tell. reporting live, i'm cheryl hurd, nbc bay area news. >>> governor brown signed several pieces of california's budget package, but the devil is in the details and the details will impact every californian. sales tax will fall by 1%. vehicle license fees will drop and the price of something will increase all your online shopping. the bill known as the amazon bill, will raise more than $300 million for the state. george kiriyama is live

if you would like us to look at the systems you are installing, they can come down and get a permit, have thus look at it, or if they would like to come in and show us the plans they are planning to do before they do it and get our input of what it is a great system or whether it will work in the location, more than welcome. commissioner murphy: does it require an additional permit? >> if they are coming into the office and speaking to the plan checker, i am assuming -- i not know if there would be a fee associated with that. that is not there yet, so i cannot tell you, but if they wanted to have someone go out and inspect the installation of a contractor somebody hired, then, yes, they would have to get a permit. commissioner murphy: what is really driving this or bringing this on is the leaking of water into a neighbor's property or the downhill side? >> you are getting more of a concern from next-door neighbors that are seeing gray water systems being installed to a neighbor's house that might be on a hillside, or even on flat ground, and they are getting watered intruding into the

if something were to be presented to us that they says tated us looking at a particular issue related to the allegations themselves, then clearly we would take it under that context to assess. but as has been said, occasionally in a investigation with you're cognizant of, you can't always reconcile the testimonies between people. there was no anecdotal, documentary evidence to line up what the chairman recalls or did not recall in relationship to the e.d. orment's testimony it was in fact told to him. so that just was a point we could not resolve regarding that communication. >> it appears chairman yasco has let politics trump science here. he's man up plated the process and misled some of the fellow commissioners about the consequences of the actions that were taken and i think the credibility of the n.r.c. has been damaged, its reputation has been damaged and there's some real serious questions about the agency's independence and scientific integrity, and i thank you for your testimony. >> the gentleman's time is required. the chair recognizes mr. bass. >> i want to follow up very q

you can see some of the tools they still use to deal with the iron of the bridge. looks like this san old rivet. i don't know what you call an old rivet oven. you used to heat the rivets and then toss them to each other when they were building the bridge. and someone here who has been with the bridge for her 20th year. mary curry. congratulations. >> thank you. >> let's go tfor 20 more. >> this shows how bridges were made before. >> before slide rules, before computers. it's amazing what these guys did. this is just one example of how they built the golden gate bridge and made the final design. it was built in 1933 to test the stress on the towers. they were worried that the towers could handle the length of the bridge because it was the longest suspension sfan ever built at the time. >> i don't know if you can see in there. there's a black and white photo. this was at princeton university. and this model was lost for some time? >> it was lost. it was supposed to have gone back to princeton and stayed there after the testing and one of our engineers found it in los angel
