Force are seeing a big push near the conference, this is the exact opposite effect for businesses down there. Jose martinez has that story. Reporter i am here at the intersection of union and fillmore street. You still see the impact of that emergency. Of course some of these streets are still close, impacting businesses behind me who have been struggling for the last two days. Most tables are empty this afternoon at union street Coffee Roaster he. People cannot come through. It is very hard to walk. It is very hard for us. Reporter Rolando Moreno works at this coffee shop at union and fillmore streets, one of several businesses affected by the water main break that created this sinkhole sunday and closed several roads. We came in a couple days ago and it was really hard because of water coming inside the store. Reporter rolando says three days after the water main break caused massive flooding, they are still left to clean up all the damage left behind. He took us down to the basement. This part is very damaged, especially on this corner right here. You can see they already sucked the water. So all of this i guess you can see the water go through there. Fixing this will cost money, so even though there is no parking outside, because of these trucks, rolando was just happy to see regular customers like joseph show up. After the shutdown and gradually, since 2020, everything has been slowly picking up. Now this is another stop to this area, this section. Reporter he comes here every day and says he will continue to do so. We both support each other. We will still come. I will climb over the mountains. Reporter the San FranciscoPublic UtilitiesCommission Crews will continue to work here, but so far there has been no estimated timeframe for the work to be completed, so for now rolando will keep growing coffee here, waiting for things to return to normal. And rolando tells me he is grateful to those customers but he hopes that more people can come here and support them as soon as possible. And a revival for a historic space in San Francisco. It is now set to reopen next year, most likely with a new name. The city announced a new 20 year lease at the property. The operators say they will discuss with the public and the chairman the look and feel of the restaurant. The cliff house was built in 1909 but has set vacant since late 2020. Crews are still cleaning up a hazmat situation. Take a look at this. This is after a big rig carrying some type of corrosive liquid flipped over. It happened in this remote part of Alameda County on the edge of the regional wilderness. Alameda county fire Officials Say the big rig was carrying ammonium sulfate for the Water Treatment plant, but none of that leaked out. They say the only liquid that leaked was coolant from the truck. Crews are expected to be out there for another five hours or so while they drain the ammonium sulfate from the truck. The driver was injured but only slightly and refused to go to the hospital. So tuition is going up next year for tens of thousands of california state students and the year after that and even three years after that. Anne makovec joins us now to break down the controversial decision this afternoon from the csu trustees. Anne . Yeah, bad news for students but all Nine Trustees voted in favor of the hike. They say there is no other option because the csu system is facing a deficit of 1. 5 billion. The increase is 6 every year for five years in a row. What does that mean to students . By the 202829 school year, tuition will be nearly 2000 more. That applies to less than half of all students, those who either qualify for grants or waivers or those with higher family incomes, but still, that is nearly 180,000 students. We caught up with some in san jose and San Francisco who were not happy about the news. It is very expensive. I hope the money is going to the right people compared to what we were paying. On it is completely unfair. I am bartending and making it barely making it, you know what i mean . Its hard. Its really hard. Reporter the students arent kidding when they say they are struggling financially. The 2019 report found that 41 of students reported low or very low food security. Nearly 11 say they have been homeless at least once over the previous year. Even trustees who have been against tuition increases in the past voted for it this time. That includes jose vargas who graduated from s. F. State years ago as an undocumented son of filipino immigrants. He called the situation a nightmare. This is kind of a nightmare scenario. I have to vote on what the facts are in front of me. I cannot not look at the facts. The facts are if we dont do this, if we dont do this, there is no alternative path that we can pursue. We also heard today from disgruntled faculty members from two different unions now at a bargaining impasse. That will be the next controversy they have to address. Ryan . Hanging over all this, federal student loan repayments resume october 1st. They have been on hold since the pandemic started in march 2020. Loan debt interest has already begun accruing this month and the Biden Administration says more than 4 million borrowers have already signed up for a new incomedriven repayment program. All 27 teachers in the Sausalito MarinCity School District have voted to authorize a strike. The union says they have been working without a contract for the past two years. They want a 16 raise over two years, including this school year. The district superintendent has said they are offering an 8 increase over the same timeframe. The district continues to not really change their position with regard to salary. We entered into an impasse in june of 2023, and during the impasse process we went to mediation, mediation failed and now we are at the factfinding process. During that factfinding process, a panel of three people will look at the proposals. No word on when a possible strike would happen. Now turning to san jose where the city Council Voted to ratify all city labor contracts. The mayor says the city cannot afford them. The council supported a 14. 5 raise for thousands of workers, but mayor matt mahan says that is creating a 2. 8 million budget shortfall. He was the lone dissenting vote, saying the deal is not worth the potential cuts to other city positions and programs. Still ahead, calling out caltrans. A south bay father demanding change after a crash that could have killed his family.

A san jose father calling for change after a deadly collision caught on a dash cam. His family survived the crash and as steve large reports, he wants caltrans to make changes along highway 4 so that it doesnt happen again. We want to warn you, this video might be disturbing. Reporter dash cam video shows a scenic drive that turns deadly. An oncoming vehicle trying to pass traffic using opposing lanes suddenly emerges and crashes headon into this familys car. The airbag deploys in the camera spins around, showing the driver miraculously surviving. One second before the crash i accepted death. I knew there was no way to avoid it. I can still remember the smell of the gas. It was not very pleasant but it saves my life. Reporter tran survived along with his mother, father and wife, who suffered injuries, and his two and fouryearold children who also survived. Everybody in the other car died on impact. I cant imagine what was going through your mind. Were you able to process what was happening in the moment . Yeah, thinking back i remember my thoughts. From the time i saw was in danger it was two seconds later until the crash happened. So it was just like that. Tran is sharing this video of the crash as part of his call for caltrans to change the rules of the road. The oncoming driver was entering opposing traffic with a dotted line, legally allowing a driver to safely pass and oncoming lanes. In this case the results were deadly. This is the location of the crash east of stockton. A spokesperson for caltrans confirmed the crash led to a safety investigation. Tran and his family were on their way home from a trip to yosemite that is routine for many family vacations. I hope that caltrans is able to at least do an audit of how they do the errors on the safer side. Now this Video Evidence and calls for safer rules on the road to prevent this kind of collision here again. Tran said he is grateful to have had a dash cam that recorded everything and of course the seatbelts that saved him and his familys lives. So far it has been a quiet fire season. State agencies are spending their time trying to prevent fires and protect homes, and that includes a new tool. The task force created the interagency treatment dashboard. It could be various agencies like cal fire and the Forest Service performing cleanups, controlled burns and tree planting, getting everyone on the same page to help protect neighborhoods. It is put in the hands of First Responders and firefighters , uptodate information on wetlands around an existing fire have just been treated or not. That is very, very valuable information for firefighters to know, to predict where firefighters can go. Reporter users can log onto the dashboard now but it is still in the testing phase, expected to launch by spring 2024. And paul, at least the mild temperatures in this part of the country are helping us avoid wildfires and other dangers, but the other side of the country, not so much. As calm as our weather has been this summer, other parts of the country have been just facing all sorts of threats. Now another one heading our way with hurricane lee. This storm is starting to become less organized. It is now down to category two but it was a strong category five late last week. It has not dissipated yet but it will hold onto hurricane strength as it makes a close pass with the new england coastline. As it moves up the coast, the counterclockwise circulation will result in a significant surge hitting the coast of new england from maine down to the little part of New Hampshire that borders the coast and also massachusetts. Even though the center of circulation stays off shore, they will still have a small storm surge. Then it makes its way into this body of water which is called the bay of fundy and has some of the wildest title swings in the world. It may coincide with high tide which would be a bad combination, even though it will be weakening down to less than Tropical Storm strength, becoming posttropical, as we call it, at that point as it gets swept up in weather across the northern hemisphere, but a close call for the east coast and they will have coastal erosion issues as they head into the weekend. Around here, near normal high temperatures on thursday and that will shift a little bit. We will see this little ripple that is way off shore getting close enough to kick in a cooling trend that will be most noticeable for inland parts of the bay area as we head into the weekend. It should help to improve our air quality as well. You could really notice a little bit of haze on the horizon. It is yellow dots interspersed with green, indicating good air quality. While there is some smoke making its way towards the surface level, that will remain the case as we head towards thursday and by the time friday rolls around we should see good air quality across the board. One more day in the medium to high category for the pollen count before we drop to the median category friday, saturday and sunday with the wind shift helping to reduce the concentration of allergens, specifically ragweed, always a troublemaker as we get into september. Here is a look outside towards the fog but is rolling back in. Temperatures are in their 60s in San Francisco in oakland, still 80s further inland. The fog will spread further inland as we get towards tomorrow morning. Temperatures start off in the midtoupper 50s with a couple spots above 60 degrees. Once the fog retreats to the coast you will have a hard time shaking it, but maybe an hour or two to push things towards the mid60s. A mix of 70s and low 80s down the peninsula with most ladies inland. Just the warmest spots getting up to 90 degrees tomorrow afternoon. Those of the warmest temperatures we will see for a while. The cooldown will not be all that noticeable around the bay just because tomorrows temperatures are not that warm. So only a two degree drop from tomorrow to monday for San Francisco and a three degree drop for oakland, but it is more of a departure from 82 tomorrow to 75 on monday and a similar drop for inland parts of the east bay, even putting the warmest spots of the bay area in the upper 70s to start off next week, the last week of summer, officially.

Bmo in oakland, violence prevention groups could get some desperatelyneeded help to continue their work. The Public SafetyCommittee Just approved 20 million in funding for Community Groups over the next year and a half. Now the city council will make the final decision and lezla gooden spoke to one of those groups about what the extra money could mean. It is called the young womans Freedom Center and they provide special resources, lifechanging resources for youth, women and all trans people of all genders. I have had the opportunity to meet a special team who tells me that the center changed her life. It is called freedom circle. Okay, and what is that . Pretty much it is a safe space for girls to, but their voices be heard. We teach them things like how to budget, how to start a bank account, things like that. Reporter 18yearold tae thomas is an intern for the young womans Freedom Center, but a year ago she was an attendee in need of resources. It was a big help. I have been in and out of Juvenile Hall a lot of my teenage life, so i learned a lot about this from one of my friends. I really just came for the money because you get a 50 visa card. But as i came to the center i kept coming every week. Reporter now the 4. 0 graduate says that hearing that her second home could lose funding has her worried for other teens. It is like people taking away from your family. That is how it feels to me. The center is my family. The center has helped me through rough times where i didnt have a place to go or i was struggling just with my mental health. The center has been like a grounding point. Reporter the center also partners with the urban peace movement, who hosted a rally on tuesday. Due to public demand, the committee voted to approve 28 million and funding towards the violence prevention programs. Jasmine fry, the site director at the Oakland Young womens Freedom Center, says she feels like the city was listening. The city councilmember was expressing that this actually is a need, and like, we dont want to cut. Like i said, i believe that is because i know that is because we are mobilizing. Reporter now whether these nonprofits will receive this funding will be determined later this month by the city council. A San Francisco man is marking 30 years of celebrating Filipino Community arts and culture. Sharon chen introduces us to this weeks jefferson award winner. It is a special one. Reporter thats right, it sure is. He started the longestrunning festival of its kind outside of the philippines. When he immigrated to the u.

Today i decided to visit your grave. Reporter adrian a really of seattle has introduced several of his own films, including a reflection on the filipinoamerican author. Adrian finds it empowering to have a space to share his work on the immigrant experience. It sorta validates me as well. You know, like these stories do matter to people. My story matters to people. Reporter adrian has even started the filipino Film Festival in seattle 10 years ago. He credits mauro as his inspiration. He is very unassuming, very humble, but so welcoming.
