San francisco this afternoon. He is going to phyllis on the debate thats happening in the west neighborhood. We are also tracking other stories on this tuesday, including stepping up security in san jose. We will tell you how many license prey on plate leaders are going into a legal neighborhood and how they plan to crackdown on other crimes. Also, what is on the latest on that recount. We check in with officials on Santa Clara Countys as they check ballots for a second time in the most contested confessional congressional race in the country. And should check in dont think so. They are actually, they have a new proposed bill to cut out clear, and our emma goss is talking to people about it. The clash crash killed San Francisco once to revamp the area, stopping cars from cutting through the intersection near the muni station but not everyone is happy with that proposal. Spent the day in the neighborhood. Sergio, what with those changes be . This is a proposal that was just released by the fm nta last week. Reporter they are actually asking the neighborhood for their opinions. It would affect the intersection of west portal and lola. It will only affect private vehicles, buses would still be able to continue through here, but private vehicles like that when thats coming towards the intersection right now, those would be restricted so they would not be able to make a right turn or come through the intersection. This car here thats making a u turn and this other one is making a right left turn. That would not be allowed. Only vehicles making a right turn would be allowed and then vehicles over here on west portal going in the opposite direction, they would be forced to make a right turn. They would not be able to into the intersection. Along with the changes in private cars coming through this intersection, obviously in an effort to try to cut down the vehicles to this intersection, theres to turn this area right now where there are right now ffmta cars are now. Trying able to a little bit easily. A little bit more easily at this , audrey. And of course, the city is hoping to keep things a little safe rather but not everyone is happy about that proposal. Why . Reporter a combination of some residents and Business Owners whove actually put up posters all over the neighborhood saying save west portal. They are concerned, with the changes. Anytime there are major changes there is concern. They are also concerned about the pace of these changes are going out. Sometimes theres criticism ticking years and years and years to study something and in this case, there are some people say these particular changes are happening too fast. The supervisor who represents this district says that some of those changes that are happening very quickly are in direct response to that fatal crash last month that killed a family of four. This is an ongoing process and right now, the sfmta is still getting opinions and input from the public. In fact, there is a meeting scheduled at the library right close to us tomorrow afternoon, audrey. Lots of opportunities for people to inputs their opinion and see if this is a workable solution for this neighborhood. Already. Sergio, thank you for the update. Looking for to the full story later this evening. A prisoner is back in custody after escaping from a cell in sanford this go General Hospital this morning. The top floor of the hospital serves as a holding cell for inmates and thats where deputies regarding the inmate when he was sometimes able to climb through the ceiling and he was found in a secure area about 30 minutes later. However, Sheriffs Office says that he, quote, did not escape custody at any time. The Sheriffs Association says the incident highlights critical staffing shortages in the department and they are calling for immediate action to recruit more deputies. And East San Jose neighborhood thats been asking for extra security finally got that wish granted. City leaders installed a new safety camera at the corner of king and wilshire at the neighborhood. These are used by police to record evidence. They can also read license plates and can flag suspect vehicles to other agencies. They say that the new camera was highly requested by the community to help increase safety. Today, the mayor says san jose now has over 230 cameras that have led to 200 arrests. In novembers race, to fill the congressional seat being vacated by congresswoman today, in Santa Clara County and San Mateo County say they are making in all primary ballots in the race. The original count ended in a tie you might remember for second place between lau and the tie, both will appear alongside her in the primary. Observers have now challenged a handful of ballots in both k counties. Election officials tell us they are on track to finish their work by the end of the week. This district spans both counties, so in order for the results to be certified with the new numbers, the secretary of the state would need to receive recount results for both of us. With any degree of luck, we wills complete the scanning tomorrow and we should have the numbers within the next day or so. Okay. So the secretary of state could verify the recount results as early as friday afternoon, depending on when the Office Receives final results for both counties. Now to a story that has a lot of frequent flyers upset. California lawmakers are looking to crackdown on those who pay to jump to the front of the security line with a new bill. It would basically ban security Screening Company clear from general security lines across the state. Spent the day at sjc digging into this story for us. Can you tell us what the idea is behind this bill . Reporter yes, audrey. Josh newman introduced the bill because he thinks that paying to skip ahead to the front of the security line just isnt fair to people who cant afford that service. Now right now, clear plus customers pay 189 a year, and what they do is they are escorted to the front of the line full of people waiting to be screened by tsa and this bill does not outright or explicitly say that they are wanting to ban such a thing, they are saying that a Third Party Vendor like clear should have a separate line and separate tsa screening agents to operate in california airports, and that is something they would have to work out with the federal government. I know you got a chance to speak with some travelers out there today. What are they telling you . Reporter i just talked to some really happy travelers because they all have really positive attitudes on, you know, even if they dont pay for clear, the understand people are short on time and its a Great Service for those that just need to get ahead. Even if they are not paying for, even if they are being cut in front of. But there are people, force them on the other side, they feel that, it isnt fair and that it is an inconvenience to be waiting behind someone who just got to the front because they paid a little more. But, fortunately, sjc is a really efficient airport regardless. But i did talk to a spokesperson at sjc who said the concern here is that contract with clear brings in revenue to airports and they could lose out on that revenue if clear doesnt stay in airports and also, you know, by fast tracking people through the line, then it hurts when people spend more time shopping and dining afterwards, audrey. Im sure people are going to be paying attention to this one because a lot of people go to the airport. And they are stuck in a secure eli for quite some time. All right, emma, thank you for the update. Looking forward hurtful store. Well, if you are going to be heading to the adware, airport, its going be a little chillier out there, isnt it . 70s and 80s, its about 61 degrees in the high temperatures this afternoon, about 62, but i think another big thing, the clouds.

In celebration of earth we, we are highlighting a nonprofit in san jose today. Valle verde has been since the 1960s and more than a decade ago, the founder director also found a way to help families, as well. Since then, programs have expanded and are meteorologist met with Staff Members on how to transform their seeds into skills. Community is one of the bigger things that we strive for here. We like to connect with people, with each other, we like to connect to the community, as well. Our main program is the shared barn program. Thats how we get everyone started. Its for people who dont have much history with gardening or anything. The main goal is to get families able to grow their own food, create their own produce, have access to healthy organic produce that they can provide for the family. I think the biggest one that i have found that interacts really well with Climate Change and everything is our Composting Program. Its actually funded by the bay area air quality district and our aim is to kind of reduce the amount of food waste they are putting in their trash. We will give you a little bucket to collect your food scraps to the week in and we have a 24 7 accessible drop off location. Okay, so this is kind of the drop off zone for the hub activities that we were talking about before. This is how people, when they come to drop off their produce with us or the food scraps with us, they take a picture of this with their phone, it will bring up a survey on their phone and they will just kind of tell us what theyre putting in the compost. We cover it with a lot of like dry leaves and everything and some paper sometimes to help with the smell. It helps a little bit with the flies, but not an insane amount, as you can see. Theres a good amount of stuff that you can put in your compost, a good amount of things that people dont need to think about, like paper, cardboard, everything like that that people normally put in recycling can often be put in a compost. Theres definitely something that should not be put in there like meat , animal bones, things like that. All of our worms are over here in our worm might just put a couple of other things in here, but then if i lift this bottom tray up, you can see oh, the worms, they are hanging out this is really accessible for people. It takes up so much less space. We have this one here is like a demonstration of how to use it and its full of coffee and stuff right now. Its really lovely to kind of share with people what they grow, the recipes that they make food with and everything and all the ways that they find a more urban environment. Thats really cool. It really is. It makes me want to start doing that stuff. So can you tell us how people can access these programs . One of best parts about this program and a lot of the programs, they are free and they are intended for the community to come together and learn about everything. You and i were just talk about how we wish we had a garden in our backyard. They have garden beds or residents who dont have a garden at home, and they also have a in english and spanish and vietnamese, as well. Accessible to anyone or anything wants to learn about not just growing your food and sustainability but that Composting Program is wonderful. I asked how long it typically takes for that stuff that you throw in there to turn into a compost. He says 6 to 9 months. If youre taking thats a long time i dont want to keep the its a little bit smaller, you saw the flies and stuff they do it for you so you can drop off your compost there. They offer a number of options for folks who maybe think i dont have enough space in my location to do it. It also helps teach you about reducing food waste which is one of the biggest drivers of co2 emissions and its free. Probably one of the best parts. I will make sure to link where you can access the address or location. They are also always looking for volunteers so thats also something that you maybe want to look into. I will put a link to the into the story. Perfect. Sounds great. Thank you. Bay areabased tech company is trying to change the way people drink their coffee. San francisco and berlinbased company im not sure that they pronounce it, but they are creating clay cups in hopes of reducing plastic waste. It says about 500 billion coffee cups are disposed across the globe every year. They also say only 1 of those are actually recycled. So to tackle the issue, the company, the 3d prints these that are made of clay, water and its actually okay to throw these cups in the trash because they will eventually disintegrate into dust. The company is now partnering with california Coffee Roasters to introduce the cup to the bay area market. So this is what you would call a new category. Its not your expensive ceramic mug or the stanley metal mug and its not your throw away, its in between so the whole idea is that you get the convenience of disposability but User Experience in the drinking experience is somewhere in the middle. Cups are available in coffee locations in palo alto, san jose, and l. A. Cubs who reuse the cubs get discounts. At the angered desk now anchor desk now.
