i think it's actually supposed to be a tinkering workshop. do you have an -- >> if you have an answer, ma'am, why don't you come forward. >> it's a workshop. >> okay. and then -- >> that's what my father had. that's the way i want to set it up. >> okay. and then, the last question would be that building has indicated they'd like some clarification regarding the drawings regarding common sense to that the label would reflect something better with their building language. >> often, we see in these buildings, we see these common areas labelled as library, we see them labelled as media rooms that service the entire building. we would be happy to clarify with a more concise use than common space if the building department requests it. >> thank you, mr. jacobs. >> okay. >> thank you. mr. sanchez, anything further? >> thank you. scott sanchez, planning department. you know, we would need to review any ground floor changes to the property to ensure our down rooms compliance and to ensure that there's not illegal units that are created, so it limits t

the trainees that make it into vite known as workshop know that two. good motivated apprentices are in high demand as the population ages the number of teens in germany finishing secondary schools is falling plus many more young people prefer going to university over working at a company like mike nars. there's unquestionably a great deal that's working well in germany's dual system in spite of the current problems people from abroad have noticed that giving young people a future perspective early on with a model that includes theory and practice seems to work. more and more countries are expressing an interest in the german system but introducing it is easier said than done. as most of the first similar companies have to sit down together and set uniform training standards that is what do they want what do they all have in common then they've got to give people time off to go to class and they have to pay for the program. or don't see mrs finance yet the lights in germany's dual vocational training system is supported by a high level of acceptance and

during the fourteen years of its existence the bauhaus was a college a workshop and an experimental aborad for it but increasingly it sought to increase cooperation with industry and the students designed industrial products from light bulbs to advertising brochures. one of the most influential bio house teachers hungering and national moholi know the initiator of creative experiments with new technologies he made photography one of the central themes in the bauhaus program. the five storey studio building provided thirty selected school lose with somewhere to live and where. but first the bubble hoy's level welcome in the industrial city of death so until the bitter end they enjoyed to support of a liberal mayor who defended the institution against attacks by local nazi politicians. designed so-called monster hoses for himself and the teachers within reach of the college and sheltered in a pine wood in one thousand nine hundred five lionel finding this house was restored. for a brief period the bone house idea was everyday reality and desa a living and working community gropius was the co

over the last five years, we've held over 150 meetings with stake holders, held workshops and working groups, and personally addressed over 1,000 neighbors and stake holders. we've had great support from the mayor's office and the supervisor and creep eight add project that will hold and produce 1,575 homes, 25% of which would be subsidized, affordable homes, and 200,000 square feet of neighborhood and commercial and community space. the project would contribute the land, construction cost and 100 years of maintenance for an iconic, 11-acre shoreline park. this e.i.r. encompasses the adjoining park and rec 22-acre park. once complete, india basin would be the model for the 21st century aesthetically pleasing dynamic and diverse mixed use urban infill community. india basin would deliver over $250 million in community benefits, increase the property tax base and add critically needed housing and a broad mix of income levels to our city and bring life and people to an empty piece of san francisco shoreline. all of this will be achieved without public subsidy. also, it was stated at the

[laughter] so at least she noticed what problem was. [laughter] >> that gives me a chance to say the one thing that i was about to say before we got into a real conversation -- >> oh, what? i'm sorry. >> which is that the first time that i became aware of alan as a person was when he stepped up to go out and campaign for the equal rights amendment. [applause] and this was at a time when there was so much hosti

i think that after this workshop the student will bring the values to their world. parents. brothers and sisters. parents too about this and it will inspire them to do something that's so hot and. the city authorities are under pressure to improve public transport work on an extensive metro system is behind schedule there are a few express bus routes with modern vehicles but their impact has not been great so far. the pallet he has issued a ban on all motorcycles that takes effect in twenty thirty but that does not interest anybody here right now. at hanoi university of science and technology they're testing a mobile device that measures emissions at the source at the exhaust pipe of a motorbike. as for environmental police to use it to get the worst offenders off the road that could mean a major change for many in hanoi. where i had don't actually know how they really react to. the. action to stop them back i'm not sure because we need to i think we need to prepare the campaign take out the communication the german advisors and the city environment department are working to

over 3,000 screaming rpm's of workshop muscle to make any do-it-yourself project so fast and easy, you'll actually enjoy doing it yourself. can your saw do that? imagine using the same saw to cut hardwood, plywood, laminated flooring, drywall, sheet metal, ceramic tile, grout, masonry, marble, travertine, pegboard, pvc and plastic, even metal and steel! or, how 'bout a saw that cuts carpet without a snag like sharp scissors on paper! rotorazer cuts horizontally or vertically.

just wanted to be mentioning that we will be hosting two public workshops in september. later this week, september 27 and september 31 at the ship shape community center, and we'll have staff as well as workshops and are also happy to do meeting with other community groups who can't make that event. another meeting will happen, as well, of this body acting as the treasure island mobility management committee in october, on the 4 at 10:30 a.m. in room 1063, and that's where we'll have a hearing on the proposed mobility plan and toll schedule. a second mobility meeting is happening in district ten mobility study and that is following up on some community led workshops for how we can improve access to the southeast sector. on september 29, we're hosting an interactive community event to gather feedback on what came out of that workshop. we invite folks to come and learn more on our website, sfcta.org/designlabs. our long range planning program is also kicking off. we wanted to give an update that the transit and freeway master planning to address the climate and congestion,

we've had over 70 participants in our community workshops and over 300 new ideas. here was our quick pictures of our coffee talks. some of the feedback was our goals need to be smart. smart means specific, measurable, achievable, result oriented. what is going to get us fastest to zero and time based. when can this be accomplished. we all know we're working towards the 2024 timeframe but some things we have a reasonable expectation of doing in two years and others we're going to need the five years to get there. so, i'm only going to give two slides on this. our real hope is we will sit down with your office to go into depth about this information. because frankly, as someone described it it's a little bit of a laundry list. we certainly heard the feedback and have actions that reflect the feedback we got. so, none of this should be a surprise. lower speed limits, culturally competent outreach, those are huge themes we have on our street side, including some of the clear infrastructure changes that neighborhoods wanted to see. on our people side, the safe routes pr
