and facility status update. finance support service and homeland security. >> good evening. i am your san francisco fire chief jeanine nicholson and this is my report since the last commission meeting june 12. we had many attended a city emt graduation. as you know, city emt is one of the pipelines for employment into the san francisco fire department. to date, not at this particular graduation, but to date, they graduated 100 people from their classes and we have hired 25 of them. we are hiring 1 in 4 people from city emt. granted, not all of them have gone all the way through the academy, but it has

been a good pipeline and it's really working out i think for both sides, so more to follow on that. they finally had a hundred graduates total. also attended a h3 level 1 graduation friday, 12 new emt ready to go on the ambulance and sthat good thing, because we started the 134th h2 academy where we took 11 people from station 49 and put them in the firefighter academy, so basically a wash, but the 134th academy started past wednesday with 54 people and myself and chief luttropp and chief kaialoa addressed the academy that day. as you may know i went to the swearing in of our commissioners for their new

terms. commissioner collins and commissioner nakajo and commissioner morgan was there as well. you're a busy busy man. yes, you are president. president morgan. congratulations on your new terms. after that, it is pride month so happy pride month everyone. there was a photo with mayor london breed for department heads and for commissioners and commissioner fraser and i both attended. we had our monthly labor management meeting last week. went well. as they have been going of late, which is good. and then we had our budget presentation. first on the 21, was the first day of our presentation. i presented for 5 minutes and it is tough to get everything in in 5 minutes, but we did what we

could and were asked some questions about our fleet specifically, and between the 21 and 28 we were working with the budget legislative analyst. they always want to cut. they always want to cut things from budgets and so we were able to hold our own and come to an agreement. they are getting about $400 thousand back out of a $525 million budget, so we'll take that. but, we still have the big risks we have that we spoke about with our rigs and with our stations and that is still of major concern, so i will continue conversations with mayor's office and supervisor next week to you know, we got to figure something out. it can't continue like this, we got to figure something out.

speaking of our stations, civil grand jury report came out called ed builder san francisco designing constructing and maintaining city infrastructure, june 20, 2024 and i did read through it and i will be sure to for ward that to all the commissioners if you need a little light reading or want your blood pressure to go one way or the other, but it was--yeah, it said some things. i would-i don't know how much there is in the way of teeth bit eel polk let you be the judges. very interesting about the money we pay and where it goes. i thought it only went to public works, but it turns outs it goes elsewhere as well. to a portion of the city

central service costs. i need to do some more digging on that to find out more information and then we can all sit and have a chat about it. [laughter] interesting report. yesterday we had a really large scale drill with pg&e out on treasure island, and it was to--we had smaller drills with pg&e. we do a large drill, we have done a large drill every year for the past i don't know 4 years maybe, maybe more, not sure, but we had a large pg&e drill with them yesterday on treasure island and basically to simialate what happens after a earthquake. they said it was a 6.1. there was multiple incidents going on in our training area from wires

down, to a gas leak with fire, to people entrapped, to all sorts of different things that our folks had to deal with in real time at the same time and so, really important for us to do that. so we can learn from hiccups we have and we practice like we play and it was really good. i was there for several hours watching and i just appreciate all the efforts that all our members put in from our training division to assistant chief michael thompson our liaison with pg&e and others that worked really hard to set this up. i will also say we did select a new assist want deputy chief of ems. he is not here tonight, nor is

outgoing chief [indiscernible] he is at a conference representing us. chief tony muloy will be in the house at the next commission meeting and you can all meet him, if you have not already. he is a long time member of our department and very very involved with the department and with ems in particular, so on committees and the like. and then, last but not least, sister maureen, i know you are retiring, even though you are going to be back here and there, but congratulations on your retirement and welcome to cathy, who will be your replacement. and that is my report for tonight. >> thank you for your great report chief, as always. i will ask the organization

commissioners, any questions from the commission? commissioner fraser. >> one. thank you chief for your report. just for my own education, the civil grand jury report is released publicly, correct? >> yes. >> is it specifically sent to somebody who is supposed to receive it? besides just anyone in the public, like any officials or the board of supervisors, the mayor office? >> good question. i don't know exactly everyone that it goes to, but yes it goes to officials at city hall. it also was sent to me and i'm sure it was sent to other department heads certainly that have capital projects and then it is also yes, a public document, but i will e-mail all of you with it. >> so, the response to it--is

there a response? >> yes, there is a response that is detailed in here in terms of timeframe that public works has to respond to it, and it will be in writing. i can't remember 60 days or 90 days, but it is all in here of what exactly they need to respond to. >> is there a public comment or citizen comment opportunity on the report? >> that i don't know. but i'm sure we could find out for you. >> issuing the report is great, but hopefully there are formal responses from people that are either requested the report, or have some way-some responsibility for some of the things revealed in the report, and then the whole pub lic gets it, including us, since we are members of the public. how we are able to comment on it. i love to know that.

>> [unable to er] dpw, they must respond. the fire department could respond and comment if it so chose to do, but has no obligation if my memory serves my correctly to do so. members of the public it is whether they can make their way through the report and may choose to respond or not, but this all kind of comes

under the superior court that oversees the grand jury process, and i know there's no requirement that anybody respond or not or other then the department in question. >> so, on this particular report, it is public works, it is also the board of supervisors and it is also the mayor that they are requesting response from about particular sections of the report. >> it would also be good to know what prompted this report in the first place. is it part of a scheduled review by the grand jury? was there a issue the grand jury was asked to investigate more closely? i think that would help us as we decide what our response should be.

>> i love to say we had everything to do with prompting isthe report, but i don't know for a fact, but we can inquiry for you. >> usually the grand jury decides what it is going to investigate, what department or entity that falls within its purview. they make the decisions, usually. >> based on what? >> that i can't answer. that's what- >> that's the question. >> zero in on. do they have a list of possibilities and say we'll pick this one now and someone says we are especially concerned about this, would you investigate? it is just good for us to know. >> thank you very much president morgan. colleagues, to chime in with the discussion, with the question

commissioner fraser, vice president fraser commissioner collins recollection. if i am correct hopefully or at least accurate, the grand jury is a voluntary citizen body. >> yep. >> and in terms of the experience over the duration of the years, at one point on one of my stays of being a president, the grand jury focus in terms of where the focus comes from, your question, had a critique in terms of the fire department. i remember the water auxiliary became part of the issue. the cooperation nature of what they are looking at, but i found over the years it is always with i think their position is, i'm interpreting, but the critical eye. so, when it comes down--there

is strong criticism one way or another and i had a look at it of objective matter subjective matter of what is your job and what do you want to say with jurisdiction. in one report the fire commission had to respond. i think the it apartment at one point had to respond. it became a lot of work, i put it that way, but that was the spirit of it. nothing went one way or the other in terms of what it is. it was more like a keen eye, but that is just my observation and contribution. to respond is always good. in that body and that ability. thank you mr. president. >> [unable to hear speaker] i am not sure what report you

guys are referring to? can you elaborate on that? >> yes, so it is report done by the civil grand jury. 19 or 20 individuals from san francisco and it is called building san francisco, designing constructing and maintaining city infrastructure. i know they-what they do is they investigate and i know they spoke to some of our members that are involved in our capital projects. they spoke to all sorts of people. they toured different stations, different buildings and they came out with this report and with recommendations. i don't know if they are recommendations or mandated what public works has to do in thto do reporting

and transparency and then they ask for a response from public works and the mayor and the board of supervisors about it. so, but i will text you all the- >> mainly public works correct? >> yes. >> okay. and the fire department was some of the interest as well? >> yes, and we are in this report. yeah. >> were they concerned with the budget or what was their main interest? >> i think that they really scrutinize how the-civil grand jury looks how the city does business and is it efficient and effective, are they wasting money and also looked at the quality of the work, so--yeah. >> that's good. >> this is something maybe we

can put on the agenda for further discussion. we are going little off topic because it isn't agendized. >> i mentioned it in my report so-- -yeah. i mentioned it. >> there was a san francisco chronicle article, so i mean-- >> good idea. okay. >> one more quick question. is the report is posted somewhere now? >> yes, i'll send you the website. >> great. >> i guess maureen didn't get that report? >> i don't know. i don't know how it was e-mailed and e-mailed to. if it was--it was e-mailed to me, but yeah. >> not to go to be far in the weeds. i just want to-i appreciate your report. i just want to thank you for coming to our swearing in and i'm sorry i missed the cake cutting today and like

i say, congratulations to cathy and congratulations to maureen on her retirement. i'm allowed to say that, right? [laughter] and another thing, i want to congratulate the chief on 12 new emt's and also want to thank you and chief kaialoa for expressing the need to update the fleet, to educate us on that, because we need to know that stuff too, you know? and i also want to shout out to commend the president of local 798 for writing that letter to the board of supervisors of giving some very detailed reasoning why we need to update the fleet and why it is so important for the fire

department. i just wanted to put that out and are thank you guys for your great reports. we'll do-i'll do whatever i can to help and you know that and other then that, i'm pretty updated. our occasional check in times so i don't have further questions. at this time, i ask madam secretary, is there any public comment? >> there is nobody approaching the podium and [indiscernible] caller, would you like to comment? >> yes. eileen boken rks coalition for san francisco naerbds. neighborhoodss. the zoom link did not open until 512 and pass general public comment but i like to speak on general public comment at this point. i'm speaking on my own behalf.

it is regarding dedicated awas. the following projects have dedicated on site awaus piping. mission rock with 12 housing units, potrero power station with 2600 housing units, pier 70 with 2150 housing units. [indiscernible] 700 housing units. balboa reservoir with 1100 housing units, however, larger then any of these other projects is stonestown with 3500 housing units. last year both planning and dpw confirmed that stonestown would have on-site dedicated awaus piping to make it consistent with other brookefield projects. on january 22 of this year, at the board of supervisors land use and transportation committee, the puc confirmed there will be a

hookup to stonestown. may 9 regarding the stonestown project there was no mention by staff or the project sponsor about awas during presentations. however, at the may 28 meeting of the puc commission, it was stated that stonestown would not have on-site awas piping and pay for hose tenders at the june 24 meeting of capital planning committee on stonestown infrastructure financing district oewd stated this is because there is no puc hook up nearby, however there is a hook up 7 blocks away, 19th avenue and another 14 blocks away at ocean avenue and victoria. the fire department prove this fee out

in the largest of the housing projects is incomphensible especially with balboa project only a few blocks away. thank you. >> anymore public comment? >> there is no more public comment. >> okay, i guess we are ready for chief kaialoa's report. you ready, chief? >> good evening. president morgan, fraiser i, commissioner feinstein collin, nakajo, maureen. shayne kaialoa deputy chief and report for may 2024. we will begin with home land security under chief brown.

intuitive and provides quick accesses to resources, therapist, bhu resources, resource library and station finder when i when i was new in the department i needed the station finder. now it was in a map and now on the app with one touch of a finger. healthy recipes and more. we are also offered a chance to participate in a evaluating a 4 day treatment workshop to address symptoms. this goes back to the lack of sleep in a 24 hour period when you are working those type of shifts. even ems, if you work 12 or more and the stressors and how it effects your sleep and your overall health. we have a few people in that study and i'll brief you when it is done. the office of employee health, dr. chang and nurse practitioner

very insightful for him hearing the concerns of the members what has gone in the past and over had history and how we can improve and concerns on their minds of their health and wellness and what they like to see from the office. been a very valuable. also met with the union to discuss annual wellness check we have not for some time and we are there. we have approval from the union. that will be integrated into 30 in 30 out initiative and when that is complete we will share that with you. also met with the community paramedicine division to discuss injury and the challenges that community paramedicine is seeing in their side and how the department physician could help develop initiatives for that type of injury. also, ongoing discussions with

our electric health records. run a couple things in parallel and moving forward will brief you. dr. c published the first office of employee health news letter. chief nicholson is the highlight. dr. c vision is to member spotlight every single addition, so interesting things to learn there about chief nicholson. i can't see it now, chief. you have to read it. we'll send it to you. the news letter what the member spotlight highlights mental health t. is short and sweet, about three pages. it has employee assistant program resources in this first version. he gave a breathing relaxation exercise and healthy recipe. under the isb, captain well.

98 members participated. background investigations for the 134 were complete in may or on may 24 of 2024. this is the first class that has gone through the electronic background packet and it has been so much better. still work to do, but so much better. creating efficiency, the candidates are able to fill out the packets and upload the resources before they come into see captain well for the intake interview. all breathalizers at division 2 and 3 and airport have past accuracy testing and 3 more breathalizers from the field will be tested in the next month. support services, deputy chief mike mullen, this in no way shape or form as stated in the past the things i

highlight here and many projects you see in your packet are in various stages whether hvac, generators, roofing, multitude of work happening and support services. beyond that work, being done all around the city at all of our stations, supporting the clothing depot, outfitting the folks and academy with the resources they need. managing the bureau of equipment and all of the work on the apparatus and purchasing tools kwr insuring the field has what needs to be successful. but we had 143 service requests 145 service orders completed, 2 vans put into service and on the right received their hvac units. thank gosh.

it wasn't without a hiccup, but chief mullen made it happen and we are happy that it is complete. same with assistant deputy chief miller. the absolute enormous work happening there under the esr programs. to include the ex fws, emergency generators, projects in various stages. enormous work. all important. all important this one probably the most important at this time for the fire department is the new fire training facility. schematic design. focus on floor plans and of individual structures and adjacency and how those floor plans work together. design modifications made to include the driver cone courses within

the boundaries of all of our folks that go through suppression are trained on the engine, ambuljs. ambulance. it is challenging to do at treasure island or has become challenging because of the construction there. we have not done it there for some time. looking for a site. we were utilizing the alamany but continues to dwindle. having this on site is very important and integral to the we keep folks on site. chief is doing a fantastic job with the team to insure adjacencys are corrected and the site can be used in ems and suppression and trainjug specialized training. there is a lot of thought that going into this plan of how the site is used. we continue the community

outreach. met with the bayview hunter point citizen advisory committee. a few more in june. incredible. to go out to the community and present on the fire training facility and what we expect there and intend to do there, but more importantly, to listen to what the community is saying and what their concerns are in that community and for us to address where we can. it is very important and so those have been very beneficial and we'll continue that throughout this process. we also went to the san francisco art commission regarding the art instillation that will be installed at this facility. it was a very good meeting and we look forward to going back when we ha we have

discussed is not just one art instillation, but taking those funds and spreading the art instillation throughout the campus so it is seen in multiple different areas. highlights. >> community outreach and education team at carnaval. as always, delivering those materials to the public. supporting the escape from alcatraz triathlon with over 1600 folks in the water with our water assets. fire station 35 present would a oil painting by artist frank walsh. the jim gallagher competition may 11, 2024. we have the winner right there, chief

fellow commissioners--public comment. >> there is nobody approaching the podium and somebody does have their hand raised. would you like to make public comment on chief kaialoa's report? caller? there is no more public comment. >> [indiscernible] >> you need to approach the podium if you-- >> [indiscernible] >> they keep pushing the meeting, 615 now we have to wait. three times. anyway, i didn't hear the report, so it

will be unappropriate for me to comment. simply, there is no fire. that is bazaar. that's it. >> that's it for public comment. >> i just wanted to commend you for the work you are doing with the community in advance. i know that it sounds like you enjoyed the interaction. i know that will bear fruit as the project continues. i also wanted to congratulate you on your presentation to the arts commission. i understand it was very well received, especially since it was not presented as something cast in stone, but

sort of a in process presentation, which is my understanding the right way to do it. thank you for a very positive report. >> thank you. >> [indiscernible] >> chief fraser. i like that. i like the sound that. okay. thank you chief kaialoa. great report. really really interesting and i also appreciate hearing more about the training facility and ongoing work with the commission as well as the community. that training facility is in district 10 of san francisco, correct? that's what i thought. okay. very good. that's where i live. i think that's great. the only other comment i had and there was a lot of-so much good stuff in your report, or more a question really. goes back to the beginning

about home land security where we have super bowl, nba all star and world cup soccer among others are in 2025, which is next year, correct? wow. seems like a lot of stuff. >> [indiscernible] >> super bowl and soccer in 2026. little break there. >> okay. super bowl and soccer are 2026. next year is just the nba all star. great. >> that's all. >> very good. i was really, wow. congrats on the 134 academy getting started soon, sooner rather then later, and just terrific report all around. thank you, chief. >> thank you very much

president morgan. thank you very much chief for your comprehensive report. i got comment, maybe there is a question in there somewhere about 5 items. just so folks know, i want to cover chief brown in terms of security with a question. refer to chief buford's report. question on the physician office and question on support services. i appreciate the detail you give in your reports. particularly when it comes to the various areas, home land security. my question beyond what was asked is, this weekend is the parade and i heard numbers floating around. i get lost after a million, but i just kind of need to hear little bit, because back in my mind somewhere is we don't have the casualty bus anymore. i think, not sure. i just want to hear something

about it integrated by this report from chief brown and-- >> sure. i will have chief brown come up. >> good evening. thank you for your question regarding our preparation for this weekend. we coordinate and work very well with other departments across the city, specific to our role, the fesivities for the weekend start early friday and so we are coordinating through the operation center that the department of emergency management monitors and dispatch center to provide operations not only to the parade, but city wide for the friday and saturday events. on sunday the parade is added to the

civic center celebration. any event within san francisco that will have a impact by bringing people in must provide a level of response on their own that they bring privately to the event and this event will be divided into the civic center celebration where there is a lot of private assets dedicated to the event, as well as the parade which is free speech liability falling to the city, so in order to address that we have a gap in not havi correct, but we will have a med station set up along the parade route that where one of our doctors that works for dr. locoke will be stationed and that allows or ems to be responding along the parade route for any people that are participating, or observing the parade, but it also allows our ems units to bring a patient to that location and the doctor can rule in or

out whether transport is needed. because the paramedics have a responsibility they must transport to higher level of care, we can also provide that higher level of care and do what we call drying up calls that lessen the burden on the hospital system as well. we'll be doing that. >> thank you very much. particularly thank you very much for coming up here and sharing. again, as a san franciscan, when you have all these events, i don't want to say you get used it, but it is sunday. a million people. just like the triangle ceremony, 600. so, for me the report talks about your jurisdiction and it talks about operation and ems as well and so, again, as a commissioner, i appreciate that and just want to be able to make sure, because seems leak one after another and again, while you

are up here, i know there is a lot of approval for mid-week concerts, et cetera. stimulate the economy, but i assume it falls within our jurisdictional. one question, how many personnel do we harness for something like the parade? >> we are dedicating for this 5 als units, the doctor and their team, but it also requires that coordination, so it is a battalion chief embedded as a lee liaison in the police department, staffing in the emergency operation center as well and our hazmat team on standpoint and have support for hazmat, so there are a lot of elements.

to your point, i like to say that we do get in the habit of planning for the same event over and over, but we are really reminded not to be complacent and the news stories we see coming out of for instance, the attack initially considered could have been a terrorism attack. that reminds us things like this can happen so we are constantly monitoring with partners events throughout the country where we can model preparation. >> thank you very much. to the commission and also the san francisco, deeper appreciation chief in terms how much we mobilize. thank you for that question. chief, if i can move on. thank you chief brown. in terms of chief bufp ford and diversity, chief, i didn't have a chance when you did your report chief nicholson, congratulations. i know vice president fraser

talked about the emt graduation and the fact of hundred graduates in terms that. for myself, with the report that comes out, those numbers are successful because of the program and recruitment that we started within the community, so i just think that's a really powerful number. also, the mechanism, because when you give your report as we move folks from 49 over to suppression, we need folks fill the roles in emt, so to me it is like, looking for a source of resources, but the diversity aspeth aspect is good. i want to congratulate on the successf the program. the other thing about the doctor and physician at some point, i know the commission will be able to meet him, but through just my community, it seems covid has come strongly

recently. is that any effect particularly within our department at this particular time or any precautions or shots or readiness, chief? >> [indiscernible] i have seen that in the news. dr. c just returning and we have a meeting tomorrow, and this subject will more then likely come up, but nothing as of yet. >> okay. thank you. last thing in terms of chief mullen support services, chief, i know you are there, but in terms of [indiscernible] when we get a report, i think i have seen this before, but what i like page 3, i don't know if you have it chief, kaialoa, let me know if you are there support service? >> page 33, yes, sir. >> there is listing by station, the current state of the house on all levels. i knew we used to get it periodically, but to have it extensively all the way down with a description greatly helps.

i had 14 different stations chief nicholson, but the details are there in terms of reading if you will in terms of the commissioners and being educated. the other thing is, i appreciate you spending time as a commissioner talking in detail about the importance of the training facility. but also spending the time to talk about the community. i think that's real important for all the years and experiences we had. bayview hunter point, they heard it all. but to have people pay attention from the get-go, i think you really found something. the arts, campus [indiscernible] it is really impressive. anyway, thank you very much chief. thank you very much mr. president. thank you. >> thank you commissioner nakajo. k thanreport chief kaialoa.
