1:35 am
welch and the rest of her staff. i'm going to go over this and stop at any point morgan anybody wants to speak we're to talk about the recivilization. the major changes in last year 4 new positions and one was a civiliantion position it was an analyst that was a sworn police officer that retired. 50 percent of the work ordered came back to the police department for about $4 million and the housing authority was
1:36 am
picking up the $7 million we put into public housing. that's a critical piece because we've been able to since 2004 made inroads and crime is down. of those officers the only residential beat officers anywhere in san francisco provided activity back and forth and this overtime allows me to move those officers around even though their 32 of them that gives me color to 50. our revenue budget is
1:38 am
1:39 am
officers and despite that we're holding the line wrrpdz to violent crime. this where we're at a record low. even below the 2009 record it was a thirty year low but we were full staffed in 2009. but again, this is like thing like the housing deployment and we're shift the officers from nights to weekends and some of the technology upgrades we've made but to be ahead of the sworn in civilians is a testament to the officers and the partnerships with the community
1:40 am
>> that's really great news chief are i'm glad the homicide rate has been reduced since 2005 and 6. i'm wondering if we're seeing also assaults with deadly weapons >> violence was flat we have a good year but again i believe that the true measure of how we're doing against gun violence is anyone who is every assaulted with a firearm francisco well turn into a homicide but with the good work of the police department and the fret and the decreases that said i think we're making great strides with regards to firearms our seers is
1:41 am
up. the officers are where there's supposed to be. if you look at the hiring plan and i put this in there to say thank you. this shows you where we're on our way to. if not for the work this board do you can see by looking at this chart we will be below 16 officers instead of holding the line at 17 and he by the time we get to christmas it go up to where it needs to be
1:43 am
last time we were at full staffing. i'm he hoping when we're able to finish that line in 2013 we're down from the 2345079 level we suffered last year there were two or three anonymous for the people who were killed in the house and was not firearm related and we had a particular. we've got homicides on the downturn again. the next slide speaks to the staffing efficiency we put into effect last year. we were realizing the staffing we respect to a 10 hour day.
1:44 am
it gravitated towards special operation in admin which was not a good use of our resources so we put it back to the 8 or 9 hour day and it was 16 thousand additional days the police officers spend time on the streets which is equal to those who are inside vs. outside and it's saved us a lot of money. many of those officers were shift to more nights and weekends. we're having the impact we're having because we're holding our
1:45 am
own on the overtime numbers. we're not asking for any more next year even though we're down there were 3 million more in overtime in 2009. some of the savings we are use a hundred less you hours on event and the planning for events is down our training is down two hours largely because making better use of technology. the next slide is the recivilian jobs. since the job had to get done modified officers were handling it. of the 21 positions allocate in
1:46 am
201315 will be fit by september and another 3 to complete the 21 we're going to have in place and 18 will be on staff by fall and 13 more and the other 2 hopefully by the spring so by the time we're having this conversation will we'll closed our cycle and hired the 53 from last year >> it's good to see we have a goal of civiliantion to make sure that officers are on the street. i see you said that 53 officers will be heading to the streets because of the civiliantion >> i said because of
1:47 am
1:48 am
apologize. >> there's one thing where civiliantion francisco lead to reductions in overall strength of 1971 we're not clear my question is just like there were recivilianizing positions where people worked at desks sending officers back out into the field human resources is there a figure on that. >> when you speak to a reduction in strength the 1971 when it was set that is a 10 hour day that's fourteen percent in staffing and prior to taking
1:49 am
on treasure island and our domestic violence unit. so getting the civilians to do what their best at and to do the officers back on the shifts and then adding in the technology that i think will be efficient to keep people in patrol i'm trying to get back to the 21 years ago slot. i'm not just trying to - like how do we make sure theirs 53 officers is that an estimate or - and a if that's an estimate i would have gone with 65 or more.
1:50 am
>> for the police departments the controllers office does a audit and they add the certification. >> that's what i was asking about the certification. >> if it's i can add briefly. chef ben rosen field. it was a charter measure proposed that creates a process for the 1971 that 6 in the chart can be reduced and that's if so civilians are hired and added to the budget then officers can be sent to the streets and if the chief certifies as i recall it's appropriate as measured by the chief >> my questions is not about
1:51 am
lowering the 1971 authorized strength but do we actually certify that are 53 officers going out and is answer is we've reviewed those and we do believe those hires will be sending the officers back to active duty. >> that was my question and a thank you. i want to go back to slide 12 on overtime. i'm pleased in 5 years overtimes been reduced from 23 million significantly all the way down to 8 point 8 million 2011 and 12 but i see that trending up in
1:52 am
2013 and wondering are we anticipating it will go up a little bit. what strategies do we have to continue it historic decline? >> the reason it's gone up to 9.6 because half of the mta order came over. basically, we're still flat at the 9.4 >> okay. thank you the next slide is the civilian position slide. as you can tell in 2009 we were at 3 hundred and 64 it was our high water when we were at 44 again. that was the year we went to the 10 hour day.
1:53 am
ebb and flow we're trying to do the best we can and use as much bailing wire just to get to christmas of this year where the staffing goes up. the next slide is the new public safety building update. still construction gambling became in january the topping of sermon it was in april. moving is scheduled for november of next year and this year includes the equipment purchases which were not fundable by emergency bond >> excuse me. supervisor avalos. i just ask the controller in the past were there had been certification with a number of
1:54 am
officers who would be out in the field whether or not there's been a followup to see if that's happened or not and he said we've never done that before and the police department does put officers out in the fields because of the civiliantion but he can have the numbers in the next two weeks were. the overall goal
1:55 am
1:56 am
information the data project that was worked out between the mayor's office and we're very happy to prevent the officers from having to go back to the stations at all unless to process arrests. and the academy 1.4 million and seismic upgrades the heart worked better in the summer and the air conditioning worked better in the winter so we'll get that swichdz >> well given san francisco climate that make sense. >> and lake merced and security fences in disrepair we've got leaks. and we're working with the
1:57 am
controllers office to reduce fuel and maintenance costs. some of our vehicles are still in place and where it not for a vehicle inspection they wouldn't pass for the green laws. that's not okay so we're going to do what we can. one of the problems with going with a hybrid our vehicles have to be collision certified so we're working on that and trying to switch as many cars as they can and get more miles on the tank. and that concludes my report and i i'll up front to kate howard because i know that was more than 10 >> colleagues sorry any other questions for the chief at this time. >> i justice wanted to know if
1:58 am
you were going to make any comments been the budget analysts report. >> yes, we got final recommendations yesterday and some concessions we were ready to make and other a longer conversation. >> okay. well speaking of mr. rose why don't we move to your report. >> mr. chairman and members of the committee on page 57 our recommend reductions total 2 million and 1489 in 13 and fourteen and want hundred and 26 savings. still allow an increase. in addition we recommended closing out prior years general
