5:34 am
board of supervisors, they voted against this, but of course, is just a resolution. it's not something that they can control. it's the port of oakland who control says and they claim it that when they talk to native people in oakland, the locals, many of them very comfortable with the change. why are they doing this? well, one, they say they want clear up the confusion, but there is money behind this. they say if airlines and they claim any airlines support the name change if they add more flights into oakland international, that could translate into 10's if not hundreds of millions of dollars every year. san francisco international, they are against this as well because that could cause confusion on there in claiming that if somebody books, san francisco and then they get confused and then they land in oakland. so lots going but first, things first. they will decide this afternoon.
5:35 am
whatever they decide, it looks like they will go ahead and change the name, at least for now to san francisco bay, open international. san francisco will say the next destination. we'll be in the court. back to you. >> all right. a lot going on. we'll see what's going and that happened in thanks. we'll make now. so a live music venue opens downtown is on the brink of closing. and the owner says it's because a crime. oscar edward, the owner of complex oakland says his business was burglarized twice in february. you can see security burglars breaking in and taking off of equipment. one of the incidents cost him 40 grand in damages and losses. he says many of his patrons, they're really scared to come. oakland. >> is that you would a theme 5 years ago. they're no longer here. they're all boarded up. so it makes it look bad. when i have to talk to an artist. don't act in a look. they come downtown and worry about getting a car, be it. they're worried about, you know, the safety of downtown.
