the port of oakland says it sees nothing wrong with adding the words san francisco bay to open airport's name by the city of san francisco says they do have an issue with it. they actually filed a federal lawsuit saying that the new name would cause confusion and chaos for travelers, especially those who are not from the area remain not actually even speak the language so san francisco's city attorney david chiu says he wants to work with oakland's board to meet a middle ground and try to have some conversations about other alternative names that they have saying that it would be less confusing for people. now, oakland officials say they did a survey. they spoke with customers and that the customers say they like the new name change. but the city attorney says that's not what he >> we had a chance finally to take a look at their so-called customer survey. and it was riddle with all sorts of issues. it was essentially a survey that push respondent's toward the answers that they wanted. it didn't give them the direct choice. from our perspective, we think any

reasonable person. here's a name. san francisco international airport next. a san francisco bay, oakland international airport. well understand how clearly similar those 2 names are and the likely confusion that those names will create. and that's a standard for a clear infringement case. >> oakland officials with the airport say that the letter from david chiu with the offer to collaborate about a different name here for the airport will be talked about in today's board meeting, which is scheduled at 1 o'clock. they also add that the was, quote, prematurely filed. now back out here live, we are inside. so we're going to chat with some of these travelers and you heard from 8 o'clock. but i will say what i've heard from 2 people already they think that the name should stay. oakland international airport it back to you to live in the studio for any traveler and we all are can see that i'd be pretty king nice interesting. all right, michael, thank you. all

right. you know what's taking san francisco out of its name? google. >> google is saying goodbye to their prominent san francisco offices. yeah, they're saying they're going to leave that waterfront facility. crawford's will trend in the city right now with more on why a will. good morning. >> the reason is this struggling whether or not to allow workers to work from home or or have them come to the office sits right behind me. it's that one market plaza. let me show you video that we shot at around 605, in the morning. so you can see employees still arriving at this location and they've been arriving since 2018, but come next, april, google says they will leave this location. don't worry. san francisco. they have plenty of other locations. but this is basically their flagship location with 300,000 square feet. and they've already told their landlord. you know what, it's been fun, but we are leaving. come next, april. so go and start looking for a new

tenant. google. they have plenty of other offices. so you're saying what's the big deal? well, for the city of san francisco, this is just one more. it because san francisco over the past couple years, its been dealing with a public relations problem with so many businesses leaving entirely or leaving many of its locations and only leading some locations behind which is what google is doing. take a look at your screen in the overnight hours we reached out to google and they reached back. this is what they are saying as far as their move from this location in san francisco, they said, as we've said before, we're focused on investing in real estate efficiently to meet the current and future needs of our hybrid workforce, we remain committed to our long-term presence in san francisco. so right now, is there still coming to this location? and they have been for 6 years. not sure how many

employees work at this location, but the good news is google is not having any problems financially, meaning they're not laying off their employees. so there's a good chance that i think could work from home a little bit more. james and darya or they will go to other locations in san francisco. but it's basically saying good-bye to their flagship store. so >> you know, a lot of people want to work from home, but well, i think will is going agree me on this one because >> with free food get you in the office because google is always overnight. absolutely not. i'm not dealing with the traffic. order my take. all right. thanks. 708. the time time now is 7, 0, yeah. we want to move on to something in the north because police are. >> looking for a man who stabbed someone in healdsburg here is a photo of who they're looking for. 29 year-old damian, a sorrow. apparently
