Leavenworth, directly opposite this pole. I lived on the 2nd floor above the main door. So i had a perfect view of this particular pole. I also lived down the street at 1703 for several years as well. So i know this neighborhood inside and out. I dont live there anymore, as i think most of you know, but personally, i feel very close to that neighborhood and its worth protecting. What i want to suggest to you is that you should find out from the Planning Department what exactly were the standards that they used . In 17073, you were able to get the Zoning Administrator to explain to you that the reason that he was willing to deny a permit, recommend denying a permit, while he would grant a permit on an excellent street but deny a permit on a good street, namely lombard, is because he thought that the distant views were not as worth protecting as the upclose views of lombard street. I looked at the brief that the City Attorney has filed with the California Supreme Court. The City Attorney

I looked at the brief that the City Attorney has filed with the California Supreme Court. The City Attorney uses two types of views throughout that brave. One, the painted ladies, and, two, the murin headlands. I would encourage you to find out whether using the same standard that was used in 17073 that distant views dont show here. I
A lot of good quality here. Obviously it is close. That is a shame. Reporter the early closing was due to an Armed Robbery that happened the night before. Police say they got a call who said a man robbed them at gunpoint just after they close. It appeared he had concealed himself inside at the time of closing. He presented a firearm and demanded money from the two employees in the back office counting the money. Which they turned over to him. Reporter the robber ran out the back door. It is very disturbing. Our employees were startled. Reporter the president said the robbery is a setback for a business that tries to build goodwill and help the community. Every dollar we make at a Goodwill Store helped us put people to work through our job training and placement programs. Reporter customers are glad the employees were not hurt. It is a place for donations. Always getting a goodbye and a sweet goodbye. And letting you know what the discounts are when you come in every time. Reporter the
Warning until 7 00 this morning. The north bay valleys will feel the coldest temperatures. And in the south bay last night. Warming centers opened, changing the temperature thresholds to help Vulnerable People get out of the cold. San jose opened the Warming Centers when the forecast is for 40 degrees or lower receive 38 degrees or colder. The city plans to keep the Warming Centers open through the morning after christmas. Now, its important to note that especially in the Santa Clara County area, more than 130 homeless died last year and it could very well be because of the temperatures that they have to sleep in at night.

Modesto. They say he wanted to target pier 39. According to fbi documents, jamison picked out that location because he had, quote, been there before and knew it was a heavilycrowded area. Adding that he would easily be able to funnel people into a particular area where then he could inflict casualties. And as for pier 39, abc 7 news has contacted them, we have asked them for a response, but they actually did not know about this plot, in fact, we informed them of the arrest.
