7:47 pm
high on a hill it calls to me to be where little cable >> thank you. good afternoon and thank you for coming out on this wet day to the last disaster council of 2010 and the last for gavin newsom. i am calling this meeting to
7:48 pm
order. we go to item three. the after-action reports. the d.e.m. services director will work with us on that. >> we are going to get high- level on the after-action discussion around the world series. the reports are being worked on. they will be circulated for comment. i want to talk about some of the lessons learned. we had the eoc for the sentencing and the verdict. it was a no-notice event. we had a window of when they were making this announcement.
7:49 pm
what came out was excellent planning. the police department, fire, health. we had a chance to walk throught how we managed this, and we will have a window and activation time. we didn't have a lot of activity. the eoc stood up. it was a good activation drill. it was a good lesson on how to put this together. the world series, we didn't have a lot of time to plan for. we anticipated it and took it forward in a number of ways. you have to know the exact expectations. we had a couple of days to put this together. we had something like 36 hours
7:50 pm
to come up with a plan for the celebration. to put it together that quickly, not a lot of time. in games one and two, the celebration went well. as i look through the data, we had some strengths and areas we are improving on. using the california assistance team, this was beneficial particularly for the celebration with the clinic, they were able to handle much of this. there were over 100 people who were treated inside the civic center, and there were a lot of people there. most of them were very minor. there were a number of people transported to the hospital. there was nothing particularly serious.
7:51 pm
we took them from the field, to there. and if they needed more than to be provided on site, they would be transported. the other part of this was using the partner agencies. we had the partnership with the red cross and this was -- we were very happy to have them engaged. the police department was very helpful in getting their vehicles through the crowd. this is very much what you are going to see in an emergency, with many people changing situations. there was a lot of planning taking place because the crowds shifted, using this with resources that were not what they should have been. we had to make a lot of adjustments. and we were -- is needed to be outstanding to make this happen.
7:52 pm
the fire department and a great job of coordinating their own paramedics, and working with the private sector during the games and during the celebration. as always, i think that we can do a better job of sharing information, and this will be in the report after action. we are looking at a new platform, to get this proposal out for a new management system that will be helping us to make this easier. this is a training issue, and this is about calling it the first center, and the platform will make it easier to do this. one of these areas that came out, out of the discussion yesterday, was presenting his findings to the coordinators. this is the functional needs and
7:53 pm
accessibility. there are a number of concerns for people who were actually at the celebration for the access for motorized wheelchairs, and we have to start building into the plans as we do this, to make certain that people know that if you are in a motorized wheelchair, we have to find ways to accommodate this. we cannot go up the parade route and this will create problems downstream. you may need an ambulance to do this and this is not good for the person involved. i ask for them to include this list. we will be incorporating this into the action report, and as we go to planning this, these considerations start to be more recognize, and better inc., and as we learn what we have to do here, we will make certain that this is put into training, where appropriate. and with that, are there any
7:54 pm
questions. >> did you want to comment on this? the police department was the lead agency. >> every april, we think that the giants are going to get into the world series, and with that in mind, we have to gear up. over the last year, we have the overreaching umbrella, and it works very well. the amount of personnel barricades' with the services, for the world series and the
7:55 pm
celebrations afterward,, the first couple of games of the world series, i think that this went very well. and i believe that the playoffs went very well. there were celebrations that happened after some of the games, and the final celebration on monday, this was essentially a capacity issue, with a finite number of officers on the street. we had help from the sheriff's office, and this was like putting out fire all over the city. we were in mitigation of for most of the night. for the actual parade and celebration of the civic center, there is another capacity issue. a number of people that you can place in the civic center, and
7:56 pm
we went to double this. and we were on the time line schedule. as if somebody told us that there was a tornado coming to san francisco at 11:00. there was not a lot of room to maneuver the days, or say that maybe tuesday is not a good day, we can go to thursday. we did our best to prepare for this. they did the job of coordinating services. and dpw was great help. and considering the number of people, that came there from all over the bay area, they participated in this. >> we are going to move on, --
7:57 pm
>> what was the final cost? do you have that number together? >> i did not see this with me. we do have totals. >> i know that this is around 10 -- but winless last time that you have this? the state people and the national people. >> this is at the civic center? >> we said that this was about 10 million people. >> i think that we came up with 9.5 million. >> i think that for the civic
7:58 pm
center, when we prepare for this, at maximum capacity we can take upwards of 40,000 people. we have had some recent events that had 100,000. i think that this was many more than that. >> thank you, commander dudley. we will move on to item no. 2. we're going to take a lick at the demonstrated commitment to emergency management. as i said this correctly? >> this is a big round of applause --
7:59 pm
they came in at a challenging time, and this was frustrating. and this shows the reality of the theory of mother nature. we were talking about the reality of man-made disasters, in an appreciative way. we had not done a lot of basic things. i always felt confident and safe because i have confidence in the police and fire department, and the good people down there. the people at 911 and the private sector partners, the faith based community. there were some basic things we were not attending to. and as a presentation is going to show, this reconvenes the committee, and mayer brown always used to say, there will
