7:04 am
extension. as we all know, the coliseum least that they currently have expired year. and yesterday the offer was a 5 year extension until its new stadium in las vegas was build, which is set to be finished about 3 years. now, the proposal for 5 years also asked for 97 million dollars from the a's and the team to give up its 50% ownership in college in the coliseum to allow development and either give up its name and colors when moving to las vegas or help oakland get an expansion team that offer was rejected and as to what's next. well, the a's tell us they're no longer scheduling or have any scheduled meetings with the city of oakland. and they've made it very clear that they don't mind playing at a minor league ballpark until the las vegas stadium is built. now that front rather up would be here in sacramento, which the team has rumored to have already checked out back in january. the executives were seen here. so we did catch up with some residents here in sacramento about the thought of the team coming here. take a listen to what they had to say. i was going oh, thanks.

our regulators. >> on her said that city crews took water samples and will submit their findings to the water board. in a letter obtained by kron for news of public works. director said that the city could be on the hook for hefty fines as high as $10,000. a day. if the waterway is not brought into compliance, a part of the encampment still remains. but city spokesperson tells kron 4 news if the water testing shows that the situation hasn't improved with the clearing of a large section. then the entire street will be swept clean in oakland, theresa kron. 4 news. >> that's the scene in the south bay as nearly 4,000 santa clara county nurses are on strike. it's a three-day strike that started yesterday outside the santa clara county health center in san jose. currently the county just offered a 10 and a half percent pay raise over the next 3 years. but the nurses
7:09 am
want 15% and they say money isn't the only obstacle to a deal. >> that last mediators proposal wasn't voted down by the membership because of the money. it was voted down because the county wants to be able to send us to different hospitals. and we believe that's unsafe for nurses and unsafe for our patients that despite the labor action. >> our hospitals and clinics remain open. and we are continuing to be able to provide all emergent and critical services to the community, including our level one trauma center at valley medical center. >> and to be ready, county officials have one-thousand traveling nurses that have been brought in to work the shifts during this three-day strike. >> okay. now to the latest developments out of taiwan where that country is recovering this morning after it was struck with a powerful 7.4 magnitude earthquake, strongest earthquake there in 25 years. and it happened. >> near the coast yesterday, just east of colin. and you can see the proximity to tie pay there. 9 people have died

7:27 am
didn't file a tax return in, you're doing refund in 2020, you have to get it done by may. 17th and you could still get that money. tesla has recorded their first drop in sales since 2020. the automaker has sold under 387,000 vehicles. this quarter. that's a 20% decrease in sales from the final 3 months of the year. tesla believes that the decline in sales is due to factory shutdowns in china and europe. analysts believe that an increase electric vehicle competition is what has lowered the demand for the tesla, kate time now 7.26. and coming up next on the kron, 4 morning news, walnut creek residents not too pleased with plans for another chick-fil-a location in their town. we'll talk more about it.

7:31 am
push some unseasonably cool air down our direction along with tomorrow's rainfall temperatures right now are in the low 50's relatively mild start. temps will move a whole lot into the afternoon today. we're still going to hold on to mostly low 60's for your afternoon highs. >> all right, john, thank you for fortunately, hazard on the san mateo bridge. nonetheless drive times have gone up 30 minute rights, not an accident. so hopefully they're able to get that hazard off of the bridge could be a stalled vehicle. but again, 30 minutes to make that right. 20 minutes into the city right now. so no access or has on the bay bridge. but a lot of people traveling 14 minutes along richmond center fell bridge. and we still got that bart alert for you to know about if you take bart between antioch in pittsburg bay point, there's no service right now. it's on the yellow line. they have some equipment issues going on there, but they are providing a bus for you if you need to take that. all right, james, back to you. 7.30, right now in the east bay, the city of walnut creek is moving forward with another restriction outside its planned parenthood building

7:33 am
affects patients seeking care on a daily basis regularly. protesters come with these megaphones and microphones to verbally harassed staff and patients allows them to call the murderers. it allows them. >> to target people that are inherently fragile at a time that is very, very difficult for them was so loud. i could hear it inside the health center with the door closed. well, clinic volunteers described the protesters as hostile. >> sophia martin with love life, a sidewalk outreach ministry group says they use sound amplifiers because the buffer zone makes it hard to connect with patients and offer their resources. they have clinic escorts. >> that as soon as the moms tend to planned parenthood, they're in their air. they're trying to interfere with us, exercising our first amendment rights and reaching out to the moms to offer the help and hope that we can provide a mom name. lily attended the meeting to advocate for love life. if it wasn't for me,
7:34 am
meaning that the sidewalk counselors that day, no, i probably wouldn't have chose life for but wolf says this ordinance would help protect the health of patients inside the clinic as the loud megaphones can cause negative effects. city council will have a second reading for this ordinance at their next meeting on april. 16th. >> because the final approval, then it will go into effect 30 days later. i'm sara stinson reporting in walnut creek. back to you. >> well, a san francisco board of supervisors has agreed now to oppose the oakland airport changing its name. so oakland, airport officials want to change the name from metropolitan oakland international airport, which is now to san francisco bay, oakland, international airport. they say the name change would help boost the airport's global visibility and attract more travelers. san francisco don't like the idea saying it would only confuse travelers and potentially pull revenue from sfo. we spoke to some people
7:35 am
at the airport and they really don't see much to this or why they're doing this. >> i think they should keep it yeah, it's located oakland point. i think i think it is incomplete because people outside of open don't know the various times also the period don't know too much was keep it open. >> oakland commissioners, though, are set to consider the name change at a board meeting later this month. this will be a story we follow. >> police in san leandro investigating a shooting that killed a man. and this is the citizen app video that was posted. what happened monday it was the shooting in the area of his very boulevard and colby street right now, the bayfair bart station. you can see the police presence there. police have not released information yet about a suspect. in the north bay of vacaville woman was arrested accused of stabbing a man on monday night at a business on main. and elizabeth streets. police arrested. 33 year-old mackay to kaye ro accused of
