the contractor did come in and remove the wood contractors, and it also included adding a temporary shoring wall along fremont street. it was a change in scope that came about after the initial information for big time. >> ok. any other questions? we have a motion for approval. is there a second? ok, motion and second. any objections? >> item 9 is approved. >> all right. thank you very much. >> we will go ahead and move into item 10, authorizing the executive director to execute amendment two to the intergovernmental agreement with the san francisco public utilities commission to provide of sillery water supply system valve services for an amount not to exceed $550,000 for a total amount of the agreement not to exceed $1,150,000 for a term not

to exceed eight years for the effective date of the agreement. >> by way of background for the new directors, we have a number of intergovernmental agreements with a variety of san francisco city departments that work with us very closely on the project, and the san francisco public utilities commission is one of them. >> good morning, directors. as mentioned in an earlier part of the presentation, we are nearing the end of our utility relocation for the first phase of the project. relocation of the of solar water supply system on mission and howard is the last package, and it is slated to start in january 2012 and finished around may. this amendment to the agreement with the puc covers the puc's procurement and installation of the valves. this is the scope of the agreement, and that number to a wheel. happy to answer any questions. >> i just have one question on

this. when we see on the agenda that the "not to exceed" price goes up when there is added scope, does that mean that the prior "not to exceed" for each of the two or three parts, each of the three things -- that those can utilities commission no overrun on one and make it up and under run on another? >> in a sense, and the initial agreement and second amendment should be approved. once it gets approved, we issued a task order or a series of task orders to the puc for specific items. the puc then is obligated to provide those services within the task order budget amount. in effect, -- >> so those subcaps still hold.

>> yes, but we do that here strictly to the budget. >> any questions? motion for approval? second. >> no members of the public wanted to address you on item. >> no objections. approved unanimously. >> item 10 is approved. item 11. appointing sara gigliotti to the position of chief financial officer for the tjpa. >> we created the tjpa in 2001. i stayed with the city and county from 2001 until 2003 running the tjpa. december 1, 2003, i severed from the city, the tjpa moved to a separate office space at mission

where we are currently located it was myself and all of the transbay documents until march of 2004 where i hired my first staff person. that person was sara dilaudid. sir worked at our office manager from 2004 through 2007 where she was then promoted to our contracts compliance manager. -- sara gigliotti. prior to that time in march 2003, because it was just myself, i entered into a number of agreements with the city and county of san francisco to provide staff. we entered into an agreement where dennis ferreira was our general counsel. we entered into an agreement where ed harrington became our chief financial officer because of increasing duties over time we then hired our own chief financial officer who had worked with the city and county of san francisco for many years, fred

clark. he came on board after ed harrington. he has continued to be our chief financial officer and he created all of our finance controls, internal accounting procedures. he set up everything with us and has been working closely with sara over a number of years. fred is now getting ready to retire in two years or so, so we need to bring on board a chief financial officer that can take on those duties. sara has been leading a staff of four people working in the finance controls. as directors know that have been sitting on the board, we have excellent audit reports over the years. our budgets have increased from about $10 million when i started in 2001 to today over $363 million. she has done an excellent job as a our contrast -- contracts compliance manager.

fred will continue in a more advisory role until everything is transitioned over. but given the complexity of our financial program, the largeness of the project -- and fred is recommending this, as you know from the letter in your packet -- we consider sara as our next chief financial officer. she has taken a number of classes at uc-berkeley, educated herself on anything and everything having to do with governmental accounting standards. she is on track to receive for certification, which is very difficult to get. it is like passing the bar or getting your cpa certification. i would like to ask sara to come up and say a few words to the board. >> thank you. actually, i would like to thank maria and fred for giving me the opportunity to take on

additional duties throughout the years, and interest to me with increased responsibilities. i would like to thank the staff for helping to manage the peninsula as possibilities. i will let thwould like to thane commission for considering this today. it has been an honor to watch the tjpa come from certifying the eir, one of the first things i helped area with, all night hearings from 2004 until now to walking by a construction site on my way to work. thank you for considering this. i look forward to riding a bus to the new station in a few years. >> i would move approval. >> second. >> what exactly will mr. clark's that this be? >> he will be deputy cfo with

sara. he will be working on a very carpet -- part-time basis. he is a tjpa employee. he is not a consultant and has not been a consultant. he has always been a tjpa employee. his hours would become less and less. >> and his compensation accordingly? >> yes. he is in his mid to late 80's, 70's? he is prepared to retire. >> i certainly support the appointment and refer to your dad on this, but isn't a law by the tjpa that you did not have the authority to make this appointment? >> there are certain position that we bring directly to the board.

that would be the board secretary, chief financial officer position, as well as general counsel position. general counsel position is now in dennis herrera. that was from a board resolution quite a while ago. nila was appointed earlier. the chief financial officer, and of course, my position. those are the only one that would come to this body. >> surprised we still have dennis, but i guess we still do. all right, motion, 2nd. any speakers? >> no members of the public wish to address you on this item. all in favor? >> congratulations, sara. you have been here so i cannot say welcome aboard. >> item 11 is approved. item 1item 12.

election of chair and vice chair pursuant to the tjpa joint powers agreement. >> i would like to make the proposal that supervisor kim the the chair of this body as the elected official, and as the representative of the district where this is all taking place. it would seem that the best choice to me. >> all right. we have nomination and a second for supervisor kim. any other nominations? seeing none. are there any objections to the nomination? any members of the public wish to speak on the item? >> you have got it down now. >> if elected are you willing to serve? >> i do accept and am honored to serve as chair of this body. >> we have not voted yet.

director kim: would be honored. >> [laughter] all in favor? >> the board has unanimously agreed to appoint supervisor kim as chair. the vice chair? >> any nominations for vice chair? >> i will nominate supervisor ortiz. >> second. >> nomination and second. any speakers? seeing none. any objection? all approved? unanimous. >> my sister ortiz will continue on as vice chair. we have a new chair, director kim. --that include your regular calendar. we are scheduled to go into

closed session at this time. we have not received any indication that a member of the public wants to address you on the item listed. we will go ahead and clear the room. >> the tjpa order directors meeting is now back in session. the board met in closed session for a conference with their realistic negotiators and there is no action to report. tractors, that concludes the agenda. >> are there any other questions or announcements? thank you.

>> the chair is calling the meeting to order. please turn off any cell phones or pagers so that they do not interfere with the recording equipment in the room. please stand for the pledge of allegiance. i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of america and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under god, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. >> thank you. we will now be taking the roll call of commissioners. commission vice president joe marshall is en route. angela chan. carol kingsley.

the community about their wor concerns about the police department. it is a lot of fun. i will start to my right with commissioner slaughter. we will tell you a bit about ourselves. >> i have been a member of the commission for about a year now. i am an attorney in my day job at a law firm that does criminal and civil work for both individuals and corporations. i have been involved in city public affairs since i moved to san francisco in 1991. i do not have generations on me like many others on the commission. i love the city and am proud and privileged to serve on the commission. i am a longtime member of the richmond district.

all the time to have dim sum. i consider this my neighborhood. thank you for having us. >> my name is thomas mazzucco. my mother-in-law lives in the district. my son goes to law school in the district. i am a native san franciscan. i am an attorney like all of us here right now. for 10 years, i was an assistant district attorney for the city and county of san francisco. for nine years following that, i was an assistant united states attorney doing organized crime cases. i have spent 19 years as a prosecutor. i have moved on to the private sector where i represent lawyers and judges before certain conditions. that is my new practice. this is my favorite part. i get excited about this. i have been on the commission for over six years. it is fun to hear from the community. do not hesitate to tell us what is going on tonight. >> my name is carol kingsley.

thank you for hosting this evening's meeting. for over 30 years, i have lived and worked in various parts of san francisco. i raised my son in the city. i am an attorney. i have a private practice, a mediation practice by day. i have been on the commission for a little over a year. it has been a privilege and a real pleasure working on the commission, serving the city in this way. i am committed to working with the other commissioners, departments, the office of citizen complaints, and the community in making san francisco the safest city of its size in the country. thank you all for being here tonight. >> during the day, i am an

the issues are. >> lieutenant? >> i was born here in the city. [laughter] item number one. reports to the commission. the chief's report is a review of recent activities. >> good evening. on behalf of the chief, he would have liked to have been here. he did have a priority training thing he was involved in. the biggest priority now for the police department is getting our plainclothes officers completely trained. tonight was a very important training class. the instructor was coming in to do the class. it was his last night. the retired lieutenant was coming in to do a series of classes. it is a priority for the police department. he had to be present.

i would happy answer any questions. last saturday, there was a significant amount of violence attributed to the 49ers-raiders game. we dedicated additional resources to the game. we increased our percentage of officers of the game by about 40%. thankfully, there were no incidents of violence at the game. the 49ers did not do very well in the game, but the security plan was solid. we think it is a solid plan moving forward. we are changing the tailgating parties. we think that is a significant improvement moving for the season. another issue this last week was a significant demonstration related to the part protest -- bart protests we have seen on

recent mondays. there were no disruptions in public transportation. there was no property damage or acts of violence. there were no arrests. bart police did make two arrests. we have a handle on how to handle those and will continue to implement that. year-to-date crime remains down 5% in the city. that is significant, especially in light of some of the declines we've seen in recent years. that is important. we did have a challenging week with acts of violence in the mission. we had a coordinated meeting about that today on a response plan to some of this. i would be happy to report if we have curbed the violence. we will not know until the following week. i would be happy to answer any questions. >> with reference to the additional security of the forty-niners games, who is

paying for that? >> the bulk of the overtime is paid for by the 49ers. i do not have the exact charge. we do dedicate resources to it like with any major event. it is like with the giants games. if a bunch of people go, we have a responsibility to protect people at the event. the security inside the stadium is paid for by the vendor or the giants. if a lot of people went to fisherman's wharf for an event, it would be our responsibility to protect them. >> you said he will report on the violence in the mission district next week. i am concerned there were two incidents that seem to be a game-related -- gang-related give us a brief idea of what the plan is.

>> at 1:30 this afternoon, we had a meeting with the gang task force. we will have a series of deployments. we will check up on probationers. anyone on bench warrant status will be receiving a lot of attention. some of the crimes involved from the narcotics trade. we will be doing narcotics enforcement. we will be doing strict enforcement of stay with orders as well. there are other things we're working on long-term. i do not want to get too specific on that at this time. >> i have a quick question. with regards to the violence in the mission, i know the captain has done a great job of working with organizations in the mission to address any uptick in violence that is gang-related.

>> the captain agreed to take point with working with the of reach and community groups to tell them what we're doing in the mission to keep them informed. >> any further questions for the chief? >> thank you. we will move onto line item 1-b. >> it is a review of recent activities. >> the evening, director hicks. welcome home. >> good evening. i am the executive director of the san francisco office of citizen complaints. i would like to recognize the senior investigator in the audience this evening. it is a pleasure this evening to be here to speak to you about the functions of the office. we're also known as the occ.

it is the third largest civilian oversight of law enforcement agency in the united states. it is only surpassed by new york city and chicago as civilian oversight agencies. our office was created by a board of supervisors charter sponsored amendment in 1982. it became operational in 1983. we're nearly 30 years old. the occ was originally an office in the police department. it has since been made a separate office and placed under the direct supervision of the police commission. that is also the civilian agency. the office of citizen complaints investigates civilian complaints of police misconduct against san francisco police officers. it also makes policy recommendations on san francisco police department policy and practices. in california, law enforcement agencies must have a procedure

to investigate complaints by members of the public against peace officers. the office of citizen complaints fulfills that purpose for the san francisco police department. our office is staffed by a diverse group of civilians who may never have been san francisco police officers. the office of citizen complaints currently has 33 staff members. the majority are investigators. the balance of the staff consists of attorneys and other support staff. the goal of the occ is to increase the public's trust in law enforcement by being the bridge between the public and the police on matters of police misconduct, neglect of duty, and police policy. to that end, the office of citizen complaints' mission is to ensure police accountability by conducting a fair and unbiased investigations and making recommendations on police

policies and practices. when we conduct an investigation, we do so to find out what happened. we follow the evidence. when we complete an investigation, we make a finding of whether the complaint of the officer violated any police depart rules, or local or federal laws. if after the investigation the occ finds an officer violated a rule, we forward a report to the chief of police. the chief can impose discipline up to the 10-day suspension. the police commission has jurisdiction over cases where the recommended discipline is greater than a 10-day suspension. in addition to our disciplinary role, the occ provides mediation as an alternative to discipline. last year, the occ mediated 63 complaints
