Director lai thank you. Just curious if any outside agencies or consultants are helping you with the reviewing of the various codes, because thats a pretty big undertaking to take to review . Yeah, what were working with the City Attorneys Office and one of the attorneys that is currently part of the Land Use Team was formerly general counsel for the port. So we have overlap there. That is very helpful. Director lai as you go through this code review process, id be curious to learn more about whether or not Something Like proposition k for the shadow studies would be triggered if we basically adopt the rec park rules. Whether or not who may be setting limits on net new shadow cast on open space, because as im thinking about this, were rolling out and opening new park space before a lot of the structures, the vertical development is going in, so under projectspecific review, that may be triggered. And im just not sure from our document whether that was all considered . Yeah, yeah. I hap
Than San Francisco in 1919 and they did build working class housing. They built 200,000 units in vienna by taxing the wealth i. But that seems to be off the table. 20 is more gentrification. Thats what that is. Only 20 and those affordable units, im sure, that poor working class students at city college and other places are not going to be able to have get into those affordable units. Affordability by your standards excludes poor, working class people. There are a lot of signs up in San Francisco for workers. Workers are needed. But theyre not able to get them. Why is that . They cant afford to live here. Were not talking about highpaid workers, were talking about regular, working people. Service workers, hotel workers, they cant afford to live here so theyre forced to commute. You are forcing people to commute to live in San Francisco because they cant afford to live here. This had been rejected. We should demand 100 affordability and say the billions should pay for it and it should b
Theyre being driven out. There is a way of having public working class housing. Very mysterous ways. Guess whats you make the billionaires pay for it. San francisco has more billionaires than any other city. The mayor of San Francisco and the politicians are not interested in going after the billionaires. Now there is a city that solved the problem, vienna. If people want to google how vienna solved its housing crisis they had a housing crisis worse than San Francisco in 1919 and they did build working class housing. They built 200,000 units in vienna by taxing the wealth i. But that seems to be off the table. 20 is more gentrification. Thats what that is. Only 20 and those affordable units, im sure, that poor working class students at city college and other places are not going to be able to have get into those affordable units. Affordability by your standards excludes poor, working class people. There are a lot of signs up in San Francisco for workers. Workers are needed. But theyre
Philadelphia. But there is that chance of at least some rain out there and occasionally you see some darker shades of green which is a little bit of a steadier rain. As we take a look at satellite and radar, though, once that rain gets past us we are looking at some clearing down south and during the afternoon well not only dry out we may see return of some sunshine. 51 degrees is the current temperature in philadelphia. So not as cold as yesterday morning. But still jacket weather. 45 in allentown, 42 in reading, 45 in wilmington and 50 in cape may. Winds have turned out of the north so it wont be quite as mild as it was yesterday but not too bad and winds staying on the light side today. Heres how were going to roll. 47 degrees under the clouds with some of us looking at rain by 7 oclock. More of the same by 10 oclock with a temperature of 53. And then by noon cloudy but most of us drying out, 57 and by 3 oclock, your high of 59 degrees rides in and we could see some sunshine breakin
Telling to fight the sunni insurgents. President obama has not ruled putting troops on the ground. Andrew david is with us now. Andrew, can this violence be stopped . It is very unclear. They have swept in. This has been going on for a week. We saw a good chunk of the iraqi army collapse and evaporate. They are within 60 miles of baghdad. Clearly they have more support in the north than they would in the south and as you mentioned we are seeing calls for civilians to take up arms. But calling for that to stop an insurgency shows how desperate the situation is. There are reports that a quarter million iraqi soldiers may have defected. Al qaeda thinks they are too violent. That is pretty frightening. They have a lot of experience earned in syria fighting the civil war. They took much of the north in less than a week. They captured a lot of equipment. The iraqis have air support. You know the army evaporated in the north. Yes. Obviously we look at Market Reaction to all of this. We have s
