the district -- asians are the largest groups here next biggest are white at 35%. staffing -- there is myself 15 sergeants, myself, such -- six such inspectors, 83 officers, and totaled 110 sworn officers. our ratio of male to female -- 92 male officers, 18 female officers. here is a service. 6 to 10 years, 17 officers. 1110 years, 16 officers. 16 to 20 years, 13 officers. 21 to 25 years, 10 officers.

by the 30 years, nine officers. the last one, 30-plus years, eight officers. the at the city -- 32 asian officers at 29%. 14 filipino officers at 13%. seven black officers at 6%. and hispanic officers, 9%, 47 white officers. when you compare it to the population of the district, it is not far off. 43% white officers. black officers, 6%, almost 6% of the district. there's no category for filipino officers, but if you put the two together -- asian officers and filipino officers -- not far away from the 45%. languages spoken -- mandarin, korean, cantonese, hindi,

spanish, and tagalog. our crime staff -- this is one of the things i used to gauge how well i'm doing. if it is going down, i think i'm doing ok. if it is going up, i think i needed to better. these are the statistics for 2009, 2010, 2011, and year-to- date 2011, year-to-date 2012. this is april 1, 2012, these numbers are current. homicides last year, 2011, we had three. year-to-date at the same time last year, we had one. right now, we have one. rapes -- total of nine last year. we already have seven this year. i look at all the reports, and am looking to see if we have any serial crimes happening. most of these are people that the victim knows. robberies have gone down. last year at this time we had 60. right now, we have 51. assaults, which include domestic

violence. last year, we had 80. right now, 64. these are the part one violent crimes. our part two violent crimes -- burglary rehas gone up every year. that trend is continuing. right now, we have 208 burglaries. last year at the same time, we have 166. auto thefts have gone down. last year, we have 150 at this time. right now, 97. auto burglaries have gone down. arson is about the same period last year, 2011, at the end of the year, taravel had the lowest part one crimes in the city. we still have the lowest in the city. so what are we doing about this?

we do several things. every tuesday, i meet with myself, the investigative lt., our officer who compiles all the data to look for trends to see if there's any type of pattern. they categorize all the crimes -- burglary, robbery, auto burglary, and a map out where it is happening. that is a good visual. we can look for clusters. if we see clusters, we know there's a problem in that area that we can focus on. we also post the information so when the officers come to work, they can look at the wall and see where all this stuff is happening. we try to analyze any trends, see if we can find patterns we can attack. of the things i like to do is i like to get the information out. i have a friday news letter we sent information out -- crime tips, community events. also, reports that occur. i include selected reports on what is happening, usually

robberies, burglaries, auto theft, things where people can get a gauge of what is happening around the neighborhood. also, we e-mail crime alerts to selected areas. when there was thefts occurring as schools and churches, i was able to e-mail only schools and churches instead of having to e- mail everyone i have in the entire district. i write a column for the local newspaper, and i do the same thing. i'm trying to push information out. when we had our automotive burglaries, that is what i was talking about. i was giving crime tips, telling people what not to do. people are still leaving exposed items in their car. we also work with sf safe. they are a big partner. they come and help organize neighborhood watches. they give crime presentations. they will do safety assessments on people's houses and business.

there -- they are the group i interact with most frequently out here. another thing we do is we have officers assigned so officers will know who is who in a sector. they knew the good guys and bad guys, and also, the bad guys know them. traffic enforcement -- people are not walking here to commit their crimes. they are driving. that is one of things i tell officers. do traffic enforcement, see if they can do some investigative stuff to see what they're doing wrong. we have plainclothes officers who do enforcement operations. last tuesday after our meeting, we thought there would be a certain area where someone was going to get robbed, so we had eight plainclothes officer and other officers trained to go up to that area, to see if this person would come. they were in the area. a person who was committing robberies came and rob someone, but we were there.

unfortunately, we did not catch them. the victim did not call it in right away, and by the time they did, the people were gone. sector -- these are our car sectors. seventh avenue, 19th avenue, taravel here. our two-car sector is 19th avenue, sunset boulevard. great highway near skyline. our four-car is here near do we street, 19th. or 5-car is sloped boulevard. great highway down here. our six-car is holloway, ocean avenue. there is 280 right here, and the san mateo border. we tried to keep officers in these same sectors so they know what is going on.

the community police advisory board is a group of volunteers who help me and tell me about quality of life issues and crimes affecting the neighborhood. they attend the monthly meeting. we meet every month, and we have projects -- or they have projects. one of the things they have done for me is they made a list that is easily sortable. it does not sell like much, but it was a huge undertaking, a very labor intensive. they updated my list, added on to the list, sorted it by community groups, churches, schools, safe groups, sorted by sector car, also. once they did that, i was able to send e-mails to only specific groups. also when i had a burglar problem in a specific area, i said a crime alert for recurring burglaries'. it was a very good tool for me to get information out. community engagement -- we do

quite a few things with the community. we have mentoring for success. last year, the unified school district approached me and asked me if i had any officers that would be mentors for students. i talked to our officers, we met with mentoring for success people, and they volunteered to be mentors for the students. these are at-risk kids. these officers meet with them at least once a week to see how they are doing an offer support, and this is a long-term thing, not something that is only a couple of months. this is throughout the school year. next year, when school starts, they will also be mentoring those same kids. for dissipating in a wilderness program, taking its hiking, camping, sailing. we had the christmas order nation tried and give away.

we do a lot of fares and block parties -- fairs and block parties. this concludes my presentation. this is a snapshot of what we're doing. officers are working very hard, and i hope that is recognized. thank you. [applause] >> thank you very much, capt. the commissioners will ask questions later on, but we want to hear from the community, now that you have heard the captain speak about issues you see in the neighborhood -- the car break-ins, and any other issues we should be made aware of. public comment will now start. >> let me just say -- if you

line up, we will know exactly how many want to speak. >> actually, i'm going to turn this over to dr. marshall because i'm losing my voice. it is all yours. >> i am a homeowner, and i grew up in san francisco. in fact, i grew up in this neighborhood. but actually went through the public school system here and graduated. city college and so forth. my main concern is the traffic. i live in section 1, and it borders lincoln way, seventh avenue, do we boulevard, and -- dewey boulevard and taravel street. i drive in the morning at 8:20 or whenever to take him in the

morning -- he is there by 8:40 -- and i drive back to my home, which is at the top of a hill. it is just -- and then i pick him up in the afternoon, but i am a member of -- we have a parent's love, and i am a volunteer at the school. the traffic between taraval and lincoln way where they all hit, because of the congestion on seventh in the morning -- same thing in the afternoon. rush-hour, after-school -- the cars are cutting up and going up ninth and 10th or eight, and they are going up through

potato -- pacheco and running through forest hill and coming up through plaza by forest hill station because they are so frustrated they cannot get around the corner. they are coming up taraval all morning long to go downtown in many directions. when. dewey -- when they hit dewey boulevard, they cut across whatever the street is there, but anyway, they cut in there and go up through magellan and all through there, and what they are doing is running stop signs. they are speeding. it is like the whole hillside and that whole surrounding area is just becoming a hazard to

children particularly, and that is my main concern, but also, just in general, and there's more accidents now happening. they may not be major accidents that make it to the media, but there's a lot of bumper and so forth things that are not being reported because the insurance companies may it that way. you do not have to go there anymore. is that me? so anyway, i have made requests to the cabin, and i was told someone would be there at a certain time. i went by there for a week, and i never a weekend i never sought a police vehicle or anything there at ninth. i was told there would be one there for a week. i'm sorry, maybe i am wrong or

maybe i wasn't there at the right time. anyway, there is one of the thing that i have. it is becoming a major problem. >> your time is up. >> the road in front of police station. >> sir? >> i've never seen a police officer on it. >> next speaker, please. >> police commission, police officers and residents, thank you for letting me speak. i bought my house for $12,000. at the same time the united states navy wanted me to go the

nuclear power school. they offer me a bonus of $15,000 and you can buy a house at that price. talking to a lot of people that lived in the district at the time, they used to be a dusty road in the 30's and a speakeasy and a house of prostitution. it wasn't paid, it was dusty and s&p. the lifeguard was also in the olympics in 1936. the largest pool in the world at my job, somewhere in the 30's, johnny weissmuller that was in

the olympics trained in that pool. i never swam in it, but billy nichols did, occasionally. this is about 1975, he managed to say that one day they pushed it in and made the story out of it. if you love, it is the gateway, in my opinion, to the peninsula. you go straight to the peninsula from here. i am shocked -- the only dispute i will have, i have seen the 690,000 people based on an ad hoc census. i don't know if that is why

crime is down. anyway, i thought i would give him by bit on the district because a resident of the city and county, i have worked here for that time. >> it is the disarray just to see the drugs in the area. the open house has to be fumigated. that is how some people live. i am upset with the capt. because i built the police advisory board, and evidently it

was never where other people have a chance to be in a. i just won't go to the community meeting until the capt. is gone. i have never been this respected in my life because it comes from a prominent family. i will not be disrespected. there is a school and i creep through the air. because of that school, you should slow down before you hit somebody. that will mess up your life for the rest of your life. i do know the police cannot be everywhere, to see if we can get more money and end of the police

commission officer training program within the academy class is. >> further public comment? >> i am not a resident of this district but i have an issue that i want to bring to your attention. officer herman chiu just retired at the think he deserves an award for his service in the think it is your responsibility to look at his record and see what kind of ahreward could be offered to him. he's a good cop. however, captain kurtis lum, i

am here to address you and your district. there is a gentleman that lives in your district to has been assaulting his wife and selling drugs for years in this district. and he is allowed to continue. i am here to put a stop to it. i want to meet with you, talk with you, explain to me how he is able to get away with it. the only thing i can figure out is that his brother is a cop. and if that is the way you run your district here, we will find somebody else to take over your job. this guy has been doing it for 22 years, terrorizing this woman. are you going to allow it to continue? i am not. >> address the commission, you don't address the captain.

>> you can explain why police reports get lost, why cases are prosecuted. i made complaints to the occ. there are three of them their right now. i have documents, ok? prove me wrong. i will be calling your station tomorrow. i expect to meet with you and i will be back to this commission and i'll let you know what his response is. >> next speaker, please. >> good evening, commissioners. my name is mary harris and i am president of my neighbors and action and the district 11 council.

i am here to thank the chief for keeping his word and keeping our capt. here. we are very pleased with the work that the officers are doing. it makes it a lot better for the community. and i am sure for the officers. i also have a request, as usual. we are concerned about the team that owns about the ocean view height, they have helped us for the last 20 years clean up the crack houses, the drug dealing, and all of the illegal activity

that we have had. we understand you are down officers and stuff, but you really need a sergeant assigned to that team. we want to be proactive and not reactive, we don't want to wait until things blow up. i have seen many e-mail's about certain areas. there is a laundromat and bear, a lot of criminal activity going on next to the family resource center. there is a crack house with a lot of drug dealing and a lot of problems there. they have a lot of low-income minority clients with children that don't need to see all the stuff that is going on there. i was told that my community action organization that the president have of problem that there, they assumed that she was

driving a certain, the drug dealer drives, they approached her and she says that there are issues hanging on the overhead wire and says it is a signal that that is a place to purchase drugs. for those reasons and others, i hope that we can keep that going. >> commission, thanks for being here. thank you, police officers. i am her secretary, i typed meeting notes for her. i came in support of the gnp. i have been in the ocean view the last 20 years and when i moved there, all i knew was the

police officers. the areas has changed since i have been there. it used to be pretty scary to get off next to the fire department, and it is a little better. we had a woman that was, i guess she was somebody took her out and got her hooked into drugs. that took four years for us to get hell, and for it to be resolved, for her to get the hell. the neighborhoods really improved, but now i am the same that the people are surrounding the corners, i walk from my house to our meeting place and i like it that way. i don't want to be surprised.

i don't want to get involved in something that is kind of scary. i wanted to say, could we please -- and could they please get their sergeant? of like to have our group continue. and that's it. thank you. >> any further public comment? public comment is closed. commissioners, i assume you have some questions for the captain. who is first? commissioner chan: i have a list of questions that i will go through faster. thank you for hosting us tonight in giving us this presentation.

i wanted to ask a few questions, one was about the female to male or ratio of officers. it seems like it is probably not quite normal compared to other district stations. also, i will run to the questions if that will be easier. i will ask you about the language capacity. there wasn't a breakdown in terms of the percentage of officers that speech asian languages, it is the largest population in the district. i want to ask about the increase in cases of burglary and how it can be addressed using lessons learned from the reduction in auto theft and burglary is you have been able to accomplish. i wanted to ask about the community advisory board. you mentioned the sorting out e- mail and so that you could have targeted the crime.

are there any other projects they are engaging in that are successful or promising that will engage the community to a deeper level? so they can be engaged with reducing burglaries like earlier tonight in public comment. >> got them all? i try to slow her down, but when she gets honor roll, you can. -- on a roll, you can't. >> i don't know what the other stations are doing. >> de you have plans to increase the number of female officers? >> i am just trying to increase the number of officers period. the speaking of main
