were 5 hundred less evictions carried out only 14 or 15 hundred maybe pledged based on streams of intervention and one hundred and 6 of 94124 and the next 51, 94107 and all the zip codes make up one hundred percent. next, please so on our law enforcement side right after the tragedy the san francisco general hospital last october we received a letter from the department of emergency management and quite surprised they said they can't provide
10:31 pm
dispatch service and the second largest law enforcement agency in san francisco we're and we're the eyes of the member of the public safety family this was a sobering letter to receive. i understand d e m is struggling with their own structural deficits in staffing deficiencys but as i spotlighted in the assessment of how poor and app accurate our services at sf general there is no dispatch it's a communication center if that that resembles something out of the 1950 not having the services for the police department and fire department frankly, i think t is madness. and the fact that happened
10:32 pm
unnoticed by the public safety community or the board of supervisors and/or the large board of supervisors not having the emergency management dispatch systems significantly handicaps our ability to perform the services that be common place for the sheriff's department. we received a bill that never occurred before i building it was 6 hundred thousand or something. 6 hundred and 40 thousand. if that same level of billing is being addressed to us that billing will be targeted for other members of the pub public safety and that doesn't seem to be the case. i'm hoping 0 through the budget intellects process -
10:33 pm
>> sorry about that. >> through the process we'll come to some understanding how realignment we are on the emergency managed. the people who suffer is the people of san francisco where the dispatched communication should be uncompromised. station transfer unit is something we've proposed and we've had discussions with the san francisco police department. this is where the 10 applications it's been practiced before a if you years ago back the sheriff's deputies are the ones that go to the stations and pick up people in a temporary holding sells and instead of the san francisco police officer
10:34 pm
spend a lot of time and taking them to the county jail for booking and going there to booking process we can do that. it's been done before it saves the police department the crucial time to apply their efforts in other ways. our cost diverse reasonable it saves the city and coincident money. we offered a pilot without money being changed hands and our intention of civilizing the records to free up the san francisco police department. it's both i think in 2 hundred lap and this board to determine what that level of assistance looks like but if we can free up
10:35 pm
officers not having to sit open people having to be booked into jail that's an important efficiency for your department and the police department and the public safety overall. our department has never benefited from the field officer training program fto. the field training program is something that frankly every law enforcement agency applies and utilizes for their sworn staff they want to make sure their field and practical rode. we had a fair amount of that and it's evident from the general hospital tragedy last fall among other ethers not having an fto in place and funded by city
10:36 pm
again handicaps our deputies from bringing as trapped as we are the second largest agency in the city to be trained. now keeping pace with retirement. we have an academy class that will be finishing. their success rate so far meaning only one drop out for a medical reason was a high percentage for people able to sustain the academy class process. typically in the past our retirements have been 14th per year now we've seen 17 and the retirement is going to inch up we'll see 20 or 24 in the next fiscal year. we're very much hoping for an
10:37 pm
academy class built into the structural deficiency in planning and the last point i'm back filling staff on emergency leave this city and our department has a chronic problem with people on disability. between workers' compensation and disability to find remedies for more than several years for people on disability this is the case. the convinces of people being on workman's comp their occupy that position so those positions go outstanding filled and deemed inattentive. if we are depleted we have
10:38 pm
people on long term disability that paralyzes us. we ask that and through the help of peggy sugarman and other in the city that we feel we can make a strong case to fulfill those positions because we don't expect those 20 plus people to return back to the sheriff's department and feel it's unfair we simply treat those positions as filled when they're not. that concludes my presentation i'm happy to answer questions and thank our cfo who did a good job >> colleagues questions or comments open this up for public comment is there any public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed.
10:39 pm
thanks for the presentation. supervisor avalos >> yeah. yeah. i know we've got to foil this item. a motion to file the item we'll take that without objection. >> item 6 is the ordinance appropriating approximately one hundred and 16 thousand overtime and to overtime and appropriating one hundred and 16 thousand for the sheriff's department in probating budget in order to support the departments projected overtime for 2014-2015. >> i'm lets cfo of the sheriff's department and here to request your approval important a supplemental allocation for $150,000 for our food budget to our overtime budget no impact. as you can see from our year
10:40 pm
over year trend the shape of our overtime is fairly consistent with the year the blue is the current and the red is the prior. earlier in the year in the first 6 weeks or so two months or so we were tracking above that overtime for the year and i'll talk about that in the next slide. again, we came to the point in it is the duty 10 we xholtd pg 3 and a sharp chiropractor in our overcame to we didn't see the slope of the line of the overtime it's more shallow in the pay period 13 essentially the differences between the red and blue line is the overcame we didn't concur because of the
10:41 pm
consolidating. then there the holiday season we were not able to realize the same benefits so our overtime tracked with the previous overcame and after the high school and evacuates season you'll see our overtime declines cybill. we're expecting to spend less on overtime. one of the drivers is vacation was a because we have minimum staffing. any time 0 staff member is on pco we have to restaff. fashion used to be circulated in order to look at it all the position approved by members if you're working in the facility and divide it 365 so a member
10:42 pm
can take all tare evaluation we changed that and vacation is now for the size of the unit for every 7 deputies will help with the slots. in addition in the current unit the senior deputies were not counted in the vacation book meaning they were able to take vacationed completely outside of the rolls of allocation dictated and this is a net increase of 19 vacation days per shift just in custody alone and they got one vacation day per 4 members in a unit that actually was a
10:43 pm
decrease. we had to backfill thirty more slots in custody alone that's why it is higher in the year. essential 3 c.j. 3 brought us back. you can see from the year to year trend we had a budget of $9.8 million and this year our budget we'll be spending a decrease in our year to year budget in expenditures despite the challenge presented by the mo u slots. we anticipate to close the year at the $9.4 million which is one
10:44 pm
hundred and 15 thousand above our existing budget if you have any questions, we'll be happy to answer them >> colleagues, any questions at this point in time. okay mr. rose can you do your report, please and yes mr. chairman on page 7 we report on actually overtime with the pay period ending on march 28, 2014 the 2014-2015 and the sheriff's department see operating budget in table it two american people page 7, however, according to the sheriff's department the sheriff's department is requesting fund to cover one hundred and 15 thousand plus which is 64 thousand less from a hundred plus bent budget and the that's based on the sheriff's department estimated overcame spending from april to june 2014
10:45 pm
