A fight is underway to save apricot trees, and one of the last remaining orchards in Silicon Valley, a proposal was recommended at city hall yesterday to extend anthat some to be cut down. Many people in the community saying, those trees should be protected. This is an icon of sunnyvale, this is what represents sunnyvale and so many different ways. Tear down a few today, and a few tomorrow, what is going to happen, this farm is not going to be operational anymore. It is a very minute number of trees, there is plenty of space in the orchard to remove some items, and the trees can be replanted. The parks and Rec Commission recommended extending, and the vote will go in front of the city council. The City Council Approved two pieces of legislation, one bill would streamline a permit process for a new ballpark. The other one allows creating a new tax district to pay for millions of dollars of infrastructure costs. Edits of the proposed stadium rallied outside of city hall before that meeting.

Reporter good morning come you can see behind us, a steady stream of people going into the station, on the agenda at the Board Meeting today, a discussion about what to do about the fares and how much people will pay to go through these gates in the future. Starting in january, fares were supposed to go up by 5 , that was approved back in 2013 at least one board member has expressed reservations about that already scheduled increase. I just got off the phone with board member, deborah allen, she says she plans to introduce a motion today at the Board Meeting to postpone that for now and reconsider it next year. Last year, it was down by 8 million trips with 120 million passengers, it was the Third Straight year of decline, and we talked to some passengers this morning and some of them said they think it is a good idea to put any future rate hikes on pause.

We are back after the break. Welcome back, it is 7 40, tonight, game six of the nba finals and it is also the ending of an era, this is the last warriors came in oakland before the warriors moved to San Francisco. Oakland mayor, libby schaaf has donated both of her tickets for tonights game to the Alameda County Community Food bank. The money raised will help feed hungry families in oakland. That we know that hunger is a real issue, homelessness, families are really struggling, and it was part of our charity challenge, the mayor and i, not only placed some local product vets, but we also encouraged our fans to bet on a designated charity, and mine was Alameda County food bank come about, we are only at one third of our goal, we wanted to raise 25,000 , that is 60,000 meals. We are only about a third of the way there. So, i thought, giving away these historic tickets could maybe help us reach our goal. And for good reason, i love the food bank. And i love that jersey you are wearing, you are ready for the game, but also some mixed emotions. As an oakland native, and even during the times when i could never afford a ticket to one of those games, just driving by the 880 and knowing that our Golden State Warriors played in oakland, it gave me a sense of pride, and it is sad that they are leaving oakland, i feel like this team in particular has that oakland ethos, that grit, that grind, that hustle, and that humility, that teamwork. I just hope, when the team moves to San Francisco, they keep a little bit of that oakland in are you going to be watching the game tonight . I have my lovely inlaws visiting me from scranton, pennsylvania, we are going to be watching the game from home. I blew out my daughters eardrums the other night during that game, so im going to be with my family, which i dont always get every evening with my family in this job, but this is one that i really want to be with them to watch this game. The last game in oakland, it is huge. I have to say, i got the webpage up, the two tickets are at 5000, that is a bargain, we were talking about tens of thousands of dollars for tonights game. There are so many stars going, my guest last time, she got to meet the original hamilton cast. When you sit in that sweet, you have your own private bathroom. Come on, people, weve got to do better than 5400, youve got two tickets to the last game. Explain how people can bid, is it really easy . It is easy, follow me on social media, i have links all over the place, im sure you will put it up onthe highest bidder is, gets the ticket. It closes at noon, just google Alameda County Community Food bank. That is where you can bid. Okay . Libby schaaf, sporting the warriors, thank you again. Sal, are you going to tell us what is happening on the roads right now . How does it look . It is slow, i do want to let you know it is slow, but it is not too bad, i want to start off with the south bay and look at the commute, you certainly see a lot of red in the west valley, from places like campbell, and cupertino and sunnyvale and mountain view, but it is not a bad commute when it comes to unexpected slowdowns or major accidents. Just a lot of routine slowing. Dunbarton bridge is routinely slow from just after 880 and it continues to slow all the way out to east palo alto, the san mateo bridge has had a couple of incidents. Again, this is not surprising, that is what commuters hate, the surprise backup that is not Getting Better anytime soon. 880 over to fremont is monitored and moderately heavy. The traffic is moving along okay, if you are driving on the bridge, the bay bridge, 20 minute delay as you drive through the area. So, it is almost 7 . Is that what you hear complaints about, the surprise backup . If it takes you 30 minutes to get to work, you can deal with it, but if it takes you longer, that is upsetting. Thank you. Temperatures are down, double digits for many compared to yesterday at this time, santa rosa is only 6, but concord, 14, sfo, 12, mountain view, 13, 50s and 60s and temperatures at this time yesterday were in the mid70s, that is not the case now, a lot of 50s. Temperatures are on their way down. Im looking at travis, 30 sustained, went up to 37 miles per hour. West when in oakland, and even that delta wind has made it out to the delta. A lower pressure is ushering in some cooler air aloft, and the fog doesnt have any resistance now, so it is pouring in. The highs are kicked out, the low pressure is here, it looks like it is going to continue to work its way in over the next few days, which means temperatures are on their way down. 60s, 70s, 80s, even on the coast, but tomorrow we will see temperatures continuing it looks like into saturday, that is when we will see the coolest temperatures, still nice on sunday, and warmer next week. Thank you. The infection of a young girl is making hospital trips a little easier for young patients, we will tell you where the 12year old got this idea.
