The blaze then spread to at least one adjacent warehouse. The fire and heavy smoke prompted the Rocketship Discovery Prep School, on Wooster Avenue just a few hundred feet from the fire, to cancel classes for the day. A second school a little farther from the scene, Empire Gardens Elementary, is also closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KTVU reports that PG&E has cut power to about 4,000 homes in the area, and reporters on the scene report that several electrical transformers near the fire exploded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire is burning adjacent to U.S. 101, and the California Highway Patrol shut down the Julian and McKee Road interchange from the freeway.

Cleo Doss said the first crews arrived at 5:43 a.m. He described the warehouse as a roughly 125,000-square-foot building that houses multiple companies in four or five connected buildings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fire Capt. Barry Ehlers said the owner had repeatedly built on additions to the original building.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A part of the building that collapsed is marked with a sign that says “Dave’s Hay Barn.” A sign on another part of the building says “Vintage Roof Tile.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ehlers said the fire was reported by two Vintage Roof Tile employees this morning. Both workers got out of the building safely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The employees told firefighters that there were tanks inside the building that contained propane to fuel forklifts, and Ehlers said that may explain why a number of explosions were heard while the fire was burning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said much of the warehouse space is vacant but that the building houses a handful of companies, including plumbing, hay, sheetrock and insulation businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fire was contained at about 8:30 a.m. but hot spots continued to burn for hours. There were about 100 firefighters at the scene at the height of the blaze, Doss said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No injuries have been reported, but Ehlers said four or five homes on nearby West Court were evacuated as a precaution. In addition, a shelter-in-place order was issued for the area. As of 10:30 a.m., the order was still in effect for an apartment complex and houses on Wooster Avenue.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 8:35 a.m.:\u003c/strong> San Jose fire officials say they have controlled a five-alarm fire that has destroyed three warehouse buildings in a complex north and east of downtown.

The blaze then spread to at least one adjacent warehouse. The fire and heavy smoke prompted the Rocketship Discovery Prep School, on Wooster Avenue just a few hundred feet from the fire, to cancel classes for the day. A second school a little farther from the scene, Empire Gardens Elementary, is also closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KTVU reports that PG&E has cut power to about 4,000 homes in the area, and reporters on the scene report that several electrical transformers near the fire exploded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But the city can cut salaries to realize the savings expected from pension reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Patricia Lucas released the ruling on Monday. It stems from a lawsuit over Measure B, which called for existing city employees, including police officers and firefighters, to pay 16 percent more into their pensions and retiree health care plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the ruling is expected to be appealed, legal experts say it could set precedent for cities around the state that are considering pension cuts as a way to save taxpayer funds without having to cut services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measure B won nearly 70 percent voter approval in June 2012, but was challenged by employee unions. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/pensions/ci_24782960/pensions-city-workers-cant-be-cut-but-pay\">San Jose Mercury News\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Municipal unions sued, saying the retirement benefits were previously approved at the bargaining table and represented a \"vested right\" that employees could not lose just because the city ran into hard financial times. A weeklong trial ensued in July. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[In her ruling last week, Lucas] said it forever became the city's responsibility to pay for employee pension costs once officials signed its labor contracts doling out the retirement benefits — and the rising costs of paying for those pensions was not a good enough excuse to wipe out that obligation.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But Lucas upheld a section of Measure B that allows city officials to cut workers' pay instead of pensions to achieve the taxpayer savings. Reed said city leaders will work out the pay cuts over the next months, before Measure B takes effect on July 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both sides claimed victory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We won, they lost,” said Jim Unland, president of the Police Officers Association, to \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanjoseinside.com/news/entries/12_23_13_judge_hands_down_ruling_on_measure_b_pension_reform/\">San Jose Inside\u003c/a>. ... \"The vested right doctrine once again held up again. [City officials] can play their cute numbers game, but the core of what measure B was was invalidated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Councilman Pete Constant, a former police officer and Measure B backer, told San Jose Inside about two-thirds of Measure B’s changes were upheld. “The important thing is it preserves the $21 million in savings that we’ve already put in place. That’s really important, because we now move into next year’s budget with certainty.

But the city can cut salaries to realize the savings expected from pension reductions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Patricia Lucas released the ruling on Monday. It stems from a lawsuit over Measure B, which called for existing city employees, including police officers and firefighters, to pay 16 percent more into their pensions and retiree health care plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the ruling is expected to be appealed, legal experts say it could set precedent for cities around the state that are considering pension cuts as a way to save taxpayer funds without having to cut services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measure B won nearly 70 percent voter approval in June 2012, but was challenged by employee unions. According to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/pensions/ci_24782960/pensions-city-workers-cant-be-cut-but-pay\">San Jose Mercury News\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Municipal unions sued, saying the retirement benefits were previously approved at the bargaining table and represented a \"vested right\" that employees could not lose just because the city ran into hard financial times. A weeklong trial ensued in July. ...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[In her ruling last week, Lucas] said it forever became the city's responsibility to pay for employee pension costs once officials signed its labor contracts doling out the retirement benefits — and the rising costs of paying for those pensions was not a good enough excuse to wipe out that obligation.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But Lucas upheld a section of Measure B that allows city officials to cut workers' pay instead of pensions to achieve the taxpayer savings. Reed said city leaders will work out the pay cuts over the next months, before Measure B takes effect on July 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They're probably just moving over to Alameda and Contra Costa where they can afford to live, but work in San Francisco.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Foreign immigration helped boost Bay Area numbers during the 12-month period, and because of that San Francisco, Santa Clara and San Mateo counties all saw net migration gains. Alameda County showed the largest increase, with more than 15,000 people coming in due to both foreign and domestic migration. Santa Clara County was close behind with a net migration of 11,537.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An excerpt from \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/A-snapshot-of-California-s-increasing-population-5059810.php\">The Associated Press\u003c/a> story based on the report:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Q: What is immigration's impact on growth?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: Without foreign immigration, more people would be leaving California for other states than moving here. The state drew 169,000 new foreign immigrants over the past year, while nearly 103,000 people moved to other states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Q: Who are these foreign immigrants:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: Many are young, well-educated people from Asian countries who are pursuing job opportunities in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Q: Where is the state growing fastest?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: Alameda County, near Silicon Valley, grew fastest during the year, increasing its population to nearly 1.6 million people, a gain of almost 1.7 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Q: Where is most of the state's population located?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: More than half of all California residents live in just five counties: Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Q: How does the state's growth compare to a decade ago?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A: Growth has slowed since a decade ago, when the population increased 1.29 percent to nearly 35.4 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

In January, there may be another alternative or option that we’re going to have to do and actually utilize at some point if we’re just not stable.
