and the goal of this plan is to help offset the department's existing staffing shortage. this plan essentially means paying older officers more in exchange for them putting off their retirement. the deferred retirement option program, known as drop, only, applies to officers that have been with the san francisco police department for 25 years or more. it would allow them to defer their retirement for up to five years, to then get an additional pay bump. this is only if they agree to perform neighborhood patrol or investigative work during that time. it could raise some officer's salary to nearly $500,000 a year. supervisor hillary ronen called the proposal insulting to other city public safety workers, such as social workers. >> we don't need to throw money away at 25 year officers that are just going to game the system and retire earlier than they would have, because they can get an additional if they

stay the whole five years, half $1 million when they retire above their half million dollar salary, according to the city's own data. >> in each of the previous four fiscal years, the number of separations from sfpd has outpaced the number of sworn hires. this is a really important point because we are not responding well enough to attrition. >> supervisor matt dorsey argues this will help retain officers who would otherwise retire and collect a pension. as sfpd's number of full time sworn police officers has dropped from more than 1800 back in 2019 to about 1500 right now. the city projects the department could lose another 300 officers in the next five years. the city's board of supervisors voted to put this on the november ballot in an 8 to 3 vote. if approved, it will take effect in july of next year. live in san francisco. lena howland, abc seven news. >> thank you lena in oakland a

fix for the city's flawed 9-1-1 system is a step closer this morning, but it is not going to be cheap. the city council's public safety committee just gave approval to spend more than $6 million on a fix. the abc seven news i-team obtained a report on the situation, and that report found that the current motorola software was difficult to use, leading to increased report times and that the issues were unable to be resolved. the city's it department recommended a new purchase with another tech company. it was replaced opd's record management system with a modern software called mark 43, that is fully cloud hosted. >> the work of it doesn't always get appreciated because it only tends to get tech, get press coverage when it goes wrong. so i want to say we have an it team before us here tonight doing something right. >> the new system is being heavily vetted after the city's massive data leak in 2023. personal data was exposed. city city services were taking offline during that incident. >> the idea that any of these

records are secure is naive and we see these data breaches consistently. and so it's really put the population at a much more vulnerable place. >> the full oakland council will take up the contract during a meeting next tuesday. >> today, fbi director christopher wray will be on capitol hill. he's expected to update congress on the investigation into the attempted assassination of donald trump. the testimony comes a day after secret service director kimberly cheadle resigned. she was replaced by ronald roe, who was sitting directly behind her as she testified before congress on monday. cheadle faced pressure to step down after the assassination attempt. the pressure just intensified after a testimony provided little clarity on how a gunman was able to get in a position to fire. >> i'm happy to see that she has heeded the call of both republicans and democrats, now we have to pick up the pieces. we have to rebuild the american people's faith and trust in the secret service as an agency.

>> cheadle refused to answer many questions, citing an ongoing fbi investigation. lawmakers got upset, saying she was not being forthright. more on this. now there's newly released video footage from the moments after the attempted assassination of the former president. amanda is tracking that from the live desk. reggie. >> it has been 11 days since the attempted assassination of former president donald trump. now, as you mentioned, new body cam video revealing what took place after the shooting. and we want to warn you, the video in this story might be graphic to some viewers. republican senator chuck grassley shared this video hours after the secret service director resigned. you can see officers and secret service agents on the roof of the building. we've blurred it here, but that is the shooter, thomas crooks's body in the video. and you can also see the rifle he used that's laying next to him on the roof. the pennsylvania police commissioner also testified on capitol hill yesterday, revealing new details about the shooting. he says two local officers left a building that overlooks the roof where

crooks took his shots to look for a suspicious individual. the commissioner also revealed crooks was on the building for about three minutes before opening fire at the former president. as for mr. trump, the secret service is now recommending his campaign does not hold outdoor rallies and as it stands, none of his rallies are scheduled to be held at outdoor venues. back to you at the desk. >> thank you amanda. president joe biden will address the nation today, three days after announcing he was ending his bid for reelection. today, vice president kamala harris is trying to round up even more votes as she continues on the campaign trail in indiana. her opponent, former president donald trump, will be campaigning in the battleground state of north carolina. vice president harris held her first rally in wisconsin yesterday. she's making her appeal to the middle class, focusing on her record as california's attorney general and abortion access. we who believe in reproductive freedom. >> will stop donald trump's

work. lena >> kumasi. if voters approve this measure, it would essentially mean paying older officers more for delaying their retirement. >> the goal is to help offset the department's existing staffing shortage. the deferred retirement option program, known as drop, only, applies to officers that have been with sfpd for 25 years or more. it would allow them to put off their retirement for up to five years in exchange for an additional pay bump. participating officers would have to agree to perform neighborhood patrol or investigative work during that time. it could raise some officers salary to nearly $500,000 a year. supervisor matt dorsey says the city is projecting the department could lose more than 300 officers over the next five years. >> it is true that some of these police officers are the highest paid city employees because of the overtime that they have. this is precisely because of the

understaffing crisis that we're in. >> it is really sobering to look at basically talking about how to give more money to officers who are earning three, 4 or $500,000 a year. you know, while our teachers, bus drivers and 9-1-1 dispatchers are not seeing anything near these levels of salary, supervisor dean says this comes at a time when the city could be facing a budget deficit of $780 million by the end of 2026. >> sfpd's number of full time sworn police officers has dropped from more than 1800 in 2019 to about 1500 right now, if approved by voters in november, this program would take effect in july of next year. live in san francisco lena howland, abc seven news lena, thank you. >> waymo is fighting back against vandalism in san francisco this month. the company filed lawsuits against two people accusing them of intentionally causing thousands of dollars in damage to their
