talk about that. >> thank you. we have a few commissioners. i think you have a few commissioners that want to respond. >> the park is across the street. currently, they do not have any staff. some of the funding cuts that happen last year our funding some of these activities. that is a reason why this is going up. >> with that, i am willing to field any questions that people may have. >> i am really glad that you are here.
5:31 am
there were several women that were here after the recent shooting. they have a couple of concerns. you could see the frustration and the fear. i am glad to see the services that you have on the vice three board. for the people that came here that evening and the people in the dwellings, what kind of average is done for those people were concerned? that they would come here and bring this to our attention? it sounds like you have a network set up. just so that these people will know where to go? >> a couple of weeks ago, i met with ms. harris. she expressed concerns about increased violence in the neighborhood. she expressed concern for the safety and the staff there.
5:32 am
she made reference to the officer and several other officers. mike moody, pete richardson and a number of other officers. i told her that monday through friday, i would have one of those officers personally checked in with her. i would see if she had any concerns. that has been going on daily for the last couple of weeks. we have reached out to her. >> we had it in the past. when you have the shooting or the violence, the police response, there is a community response, too. their response on the community basis that will let people know that there are services
5:33 am
available. there is an advisory board. people can come and talk to and get services. >> it is probably the most viable resource. >> a community response that goes out of the time of the shooting. not a monthly meeting. >> right. one of the main purposes of the community advisory board is that these members represent various constituencies, and various community groups, and they are a resource. something like that occurs and i can get a hold of alfredo. we can meet at any time when an issue comes up and have a working relationship with 20 different members of the community that i did not have
5:34 am
before we started the community advisory board. >> thanks. >> commissioner. >> i would like to thank all of the speakers who updated us on what is happening in the mission district. it is good to hear positive results that you are having from different components in the community working together. captain, i am wondering if you could give me or -- more information or help me understand the breakdown of the one-car, two-car, the six-car sector. i guess i could guess what that means. and the statistics being tied to the one-car, two-car, i am not sure --
5:35 am
>> the police district is broken up into six different sectors. >> there are two cars assigned to this sector and six to another sector? >> there are six different sectors. they are just name the one-car through the six cars. >> thanks. i appreciate that. >> i had a quick question. then we can move along. i did speak with a couple of residents. they're concerned was that they have new officers coming on board. they are not trained to deal with the community members. i want to know if there is a way to transition the officers of that they have strong relationships? >> perception is important.
5:36 am
in reality, new officers to come to the district stations, they are getting more and more emphasis in the academy and field training on cultural awareness with the citizenry and the importance of community outreach. i think it is more a matter of miss harris having a good relationship with some of the more veteran officers. she was comfortable with them and did not know these new were officers. i made it a point for the officers that she named by name that would come by every day. at the same time, we want to develop a new relationship with the other officers. >> the more that could be done to develop that relationship to
5:37 am
further it along so that there is a community relationship with the new officers. that would be helpful. >> thank you very much. [applause] one other -- a couple of presentations? certificate of appreciation? is that all, captain? >> yes, it is. >> commissioners, in the interest of time, before the meeting started, we had a photo op with two honorees and they
5:38 am
received plaques. i would like to ask them both to come forward while i read to you the valor that they demonstrated. >> you should know that we do need police officers. >> on july 29, the victim was viciously attacked by anderson jackson, who it was later discovered was on parole for aggravated assault. as he came up behind her and punched her on the side of the head, while she was down in days, he flipped her over onto her back and began rifling through her pockets. be that some thought that she was going to be raped and killed
5:39 am
right there on the street. she screamed as loud and long as she could. the suspect told her, shut up, bitch. there are two heroic ladies. [no audio] [applause] they were alerted by the screaming and ran to the rescue. they chased away jackson. well they went to post the victim's the systems, they jumped into a taxicab. he was 6'2"240 pounds. she was able to give it the description and the pattern of light. jackson doubled back an attempt to ditch her. she wept -- he went into an open
5:40 am
garage. she had been able to get a good look at his face and was not fooled. she continued to follow him until officers arrived. she was able to point out jackson. both witnesses identified jackson as the culprit. they wrote statements to that effect. both of these heroic ladies went above and beyond what we expect of citizens. i am delighted that we were able to invite them here to receive their plaques of appreciation. [applause] >> jordan wanted me to recount the story that the victim told us after the assault had taken place. she was shaken up at first. she did not know what you wanted. she only had a first generation
