3:01 am
going on there and jobs. it's, you know, one of the best things we can do in terms of keeping our streets save. is to keep youth challenged in e positive direction in their life. as you know i'm a resident of the terryville area in the west portal section in particular and raised my son here. so it's of particular interest the safety and well-being of the terryville area. this card is terrific by the way. for those of you who worked hard on this. and on the pedestrian safety and bicycle safety are there any areas you want to highlight, you
3:02 am
know, in the terryville area where people should be particularly cache about whether bicycle accidents and in particular hot spots for whatever reason the lighting or the geographic i didn't >> 19th and terryville is one of them and also by west port tall those are the top areas where there are pedestrian cloigsdz. the mta did is a study and the police department sent it out to us from 2006 to 2011 first quarter. and having said that in this 5 years at the at intersections 4 collisions so there's not a lot
3:03 am
of collisions but it happens there for frequently so we the address that we have a traffic plan every month. we know where the top 5 collision reasons failure to yield to going on traffic and stop signs. we attack those problems and that's what we focus on and there's areas we focus on 19th avenue and sunset boulevard and other streets. we try to work more effectively we have a map and a calendar everyday they have duties they have to do to look for those 5 violations. right now my big thing is pedestrian safety and speeding. speeding because speed is the
3:04 am
number one collision factor and it effects all the other entries or collisions. the faster i go the more serious the injuries. >> i have one question. you have two great high schools in your district and one the supervisor went to and one the cohesive, of course, the best one is the one i went to. what type of outreach do you have and we have 38 schools total. so we do - we meet with the principles and have a positive relationship. the main problem is usually traffic so we try to meet with the principles be.
3:05 am
we have the schools come into 80 to the station and it's usually about pickup time and drop off time. like the mid schools and the high schools. because they all get out generally, the at the same time and they all want the police services the same time. we try to have a flow time. our traffic officer went there and determined it and gave them suggestions or on what to do so we don't have enough cops to go around. that's somewhat successful. we still want more enforcement. i meeting met with some of the principles. if they had had been july
3:06 am
offenders they get the license plates number and i would write them a letter find out where they live and write them a letter and say if might be getting a ticketed. and we want jointly write letters. we only had to do it one time. it worked out and we didn't have any more complaints >> do you see an uptick in robberies with all the electronic days do you see an uptick in robberies from students or across the board. and a some kids were robbed because their you younger >> now, it's time for public comment. >> line item 3 public comment.

past president of merchant association. 20084, 86 and 87 and i'm the current director. for those who don't know i brought down some issues. the military is very close and dear to my heart. we very seldom thank the officers for their services. my main objective at a lunch was to say thank you. they were surprised to get acknowledges from our supervisors and under the influence of alcohol our association. those guys really appreciate it and it meant a lot to them we're fortunate to have men and women serving at the station and
3:09 am
most importantly our captain. i want to only a the captain and the staff. we're very fortunate to maintain our officers and car officers. i graduated from abraham lincoln high school. i'm currently on the board this there and i want to say thank you. during the incident of the shootings in connecticut he was there to the lincoln to make sure our kids were okay. and save. with our recent retirees they're doing less and less of personnel. i know it's time for the rotation but i hope we can keep him longer. lastly, i would be amiss if i

3:11 am
it was the best >> i want to thank captain for all the assistance. we mentioned with the card you mentioned about being distracted. cell phone theft is one of the major crimes that happens at stones town. he's worked with me to bring officers out i've given them access to the roofs so they can overlook the parking lots. you bring is big car out to our location and we have officers out there trying to stop the blrz of our cars. this month we've had 9 break-ins of cars. people are leaving everything in plain view.
3:12 am
i've looked at the states and it looks one of the major crimes is people are driving straight from the airport and leaving their luggage and back pages and they're looking for electronics. i do want to thank the staff at terryville because we have what we call an orchard crime rate and one in particular was sunglasses. they came out they were 34 woman 189 r 18 to 26 years old they scooped up 26 pair of eyeglasses and i alerted the day watch i needed patrols between 8 and 9 and that's when the mall was closings. the chief said they ran directly
3:13 am
into a patrol car all they had to do was open their car doors. i went to court with her and sure enough all the girls plead guilty. just today snafks we had 3 gentlemen who conducted a petty theft. officer jaw showed up just like that and they're now in custody. so i still again want to thank the officers at terryville station and we still need them. and if captain could stay in the district sir, please let him >> thank you. i used to see you at the hall of justice and thank you for your years of service. >> good evening. i'm glen i'm
3:14 am
the kurt current president of the triangle neighborhood soeshlths and also on the terryville pta. i want to acknowledge the great job that the captain has done. a couple examples we run a quarterly meeting and at every meeting the captain shows up to answer questions or he sends a representative without fail and those members he sends are forth right and talk to individuals after the meeting. captain was our vice president of our organization personally introduced himself to the 8 businesses. we - he knocked on the door and said if they have any problems
3:15 am
or questions they're to call the terryville station. under the captains leadership they did cellular phone cpa developed to card he also under his leadership we developed - he was concerned about communication with the businesses and organizations in terryville priblth so we developed a da database of organizations and groups within the neighborhood separated them into whether they were merchant or whatever so he could get out a quick e-mail warping them about things in the district. that's a database we shared last year and we think it's a good and quick way to get information out into the district.
3:16 am
again, i want to thank the capita he's done a fantastic job. thanks >> thank you four working with the captain. good evening >> if you don't mind i'm going to make a little adjustment here. >> got it there? >> ladies and gentlemen, and audience the commissioners and chief and sheriff good evening. i welcome this opportunity to speak this evening. people don't understand the bank of italy after the earthquake almost rebuilt this whole district based on loans and which johnny wisconsin miller which was right next to the zoo on the panic side is where he
3:17 am
trained for the 1936 olympians and after that became tarzan. very briefly i came this evening to shake the hand of jim cunningham. he's an "x" particular police. he beat the fire department out there and i read the valuable critic by ms. kingsley how he showed up with no guarantor whatsoever. this is the second time we've had this happen a police doing emphasis job were. when i saw he, he didn't have what 007 had under water a breathing tube. but briefly looking at all of
3:18 am
this is that i lived in the terryville district for four and a half years and when the commander gave his talk i was looking for the number of shipwrecks that showed up on the ocean beach and was probably a shipwreck every other month that showed up on the beach with life preservers that came from the sea of japan. so this kids got a lot of history from across the piefk. very briefly i'd like to say that i think if you look at this district and in terms of one minor city it's beggar than a lot of the cities on the peninsula in terms of people so i have a to say that the police
3:19 am
department handling this district is a job in itself but it probably has overdoes have one of the lottery crime rates in the city when i look at the statistics. so i want to sigh keep doing a good job guys. thank you very much >> thank you very much. >> thank you, commissioners. i'm ron. my wife dawn and i run the youth services. it's a youth center in the sunset beacon center. excuse me. i would say to express my appreciation from a slightly different prospective from the captain. we serve many of the youth that end up on the other side.
3:20 am
many of the youth that get arrested that end up in posh conflict with the officers. and captain alumni and his officers have shown yes, they want to reduce crime but they also want to better the lives of the kids that are making those choices. it's about what is going on. the captain brought out many officers to our youth center and traditionally or historically there have been times in the past we've not always seen eye to eye with the police department. the collaboration we have felt from the captain and the officers to come up to the station to address the line upside for them to come out to
3:21 am
our center and meet our staff and fought how to address the difficult tops. he's never tried to smooth over by emphasis serious deserve to better both the lives of the neighborhood and the lives of those youth has meant so much to us. i want to express our appreciation as the collaboration continues to grow. we hope it will continue and broaden >> good evening. i'm john i'm the safe block captain of the neighborhood watch organization. we're down on lower grade between lot and lincoln. and i just want to say i'm grateful to have this opportunity to publicly express

3:29 am
and if i think if you have a good quality of life crime goes down. i wouldn't tell you what i saw in my driveway. but the officers work with everybody in the community. the real good officers but unfortunately, i think it would be better if we had a new captain because i don't get along with the captain curtis alumni at all. he's been there a long time. and i asked that i want 80 a police activity to go bye my home. at 4 in the morning i saw a man
