could do take no action or push him off the bike and he did that pushed him off the bike the suspect falls to the ground, the cop shows up and arrested and most people wouldn't take any action but mr. manheimer here risked his own safety and displayed a willingness usually reserved for police officers and fire fighters and a select few of our civilian population and mr. man heimer heimer should be commended for for his brave action and be awarded the commendation award. >> commissioner commissioner mazzucco gets very excited about this [laughter] there is

2:06 am
receiving excess and under utilized government equipment everything from paper shred ers to storage cabinets and police boats and even at one time helicopters and at this time we've been able to locate 13 forklifts and property supply areas as well as some of our specialized units and they come to us initially at no cost from the government and after 1 1 year in our possession they are turned over to us to use as we see fit either to return to the government at no cost or penalty or reallocate or sell if we desire so a great saving estimated at 226 at $226,000 worth of forklifts that we get at no cost. >> 13 seems like a lot of
2:07 am
forklifts just curious about the number. >> sure. the way these are stockpiled by the government they are told to us they are available but without any real detail on the condition of the forklifts we have a short window to inspect them for use ability and so due diligence said we take them all and see which ones we need for parts to make the others whole and if they are not all in proper working order we can turn those back in. >> do you have any questions? >> vice president turman? >> sergeant matthews can we also allocate to other agencies. >> the equipment is did i differently classified for their use and for the first
2:08 am
year they must remain in the control of the police department for a law enforcement purpose and after that time yes, we could potentially. >> any other questions for my colleagues? okay. do i have a motion? >> accept. all those in favor. aye. motion passes. thank you, sergeant. >> thank you. >> good luck with the forklifts. >> thank you. >> please call the next line item. >> the public is now welcome to address the commission with items that are within the jurisdiction of the commission and address your remarks to the commission as a whole and not to individual commissioners and during public comment neither police or occ personnel or commissioners are required to
2:09 am
respond to questions but may provide a brief response and occ personnel should rerefrain however from entering into any discussions with speakers during their comment and you you can limit your comment to to 3 minutes, please. >> welcome. >> hello commissioners i've been here many times before for those of you who don't come all the time i apologize for doing ancient history in the last 3 minutes and actually you can get change done around here even if in a roundabout way i want to wish you a happy month. if you didn't see the report on channel 2 last thursday it featured the chief being interviewed talking about the lieutenant and his disgraceful exit from the
2:10 am
department and i think if if you haven't seen it, i recommend you watch it and unfortunately i want to point out it's 5 years and over a million dollars too late. imagine the pension he's going to get because you promoted him after a crime and that teaches other officers that the way to get a promotion is by breaking the law. 5 years ago the castro was operated under the aegis of a corrupt supervisor and police officer and extortionist jane warn er and those are the 3 leading lights of law enforcement in the castro five very very long years ago. there has been an improvement but it hasn't been fast enough and it hasn't been nearly
2:11 am
enough. okay. the shooting that happened about 2 weeks ago -- of the poor mr. perez lopez and covering for one of their inform ants who were criminals. they had 3 officers went to the federal pen because they were dealing with criminals and went to the pen because they were dealing with criminals and became criminals. we all know the mission station is the most corrupt station in the city and we all know the undercover cop program there has been given a hard look by these feds and they are still look ing. have you notified the feds. i've got a lot more i'll come next week or
2:12 am
the week after. thank you. >> any further public comment? >> hello. my name is paulette brown. i'd like to use the overhead. i'm here concerning my son and his friends called him cheddar and he was measured by a semi caucasian by a semi automatic gun and to this day still no justice. his case is a cold case. i have the name of all the perpetrators that murder and that was there and involved with my son being murdered. anthony hunter and one of these is deceased.
2:13 am
these are the names that i got and these are the true names of the perpetrators that murdered my son they are still walking the street one of them is thomas hannabal and he has a comedy show somewhere and he's living his life as though he never done anything. and my son , his body, his birthday is next month, april 6th and this is what i have to celebrate. this is the life that i have to celebrate. no life. i can't stop this. this is my therapy to come here and keep my son's
2:14 am
memory alive. this is not easy for me, but i will continue to do it again, these guys names are on my son's file is the perpetrators that were going to shoot another young man. see these names, look them up, get them off the street. i'm afraid for my children that i have left. who is to know if these guys might be looking at me. they might see what i'm doing every month or every week and i don't care you took everything from me. you took my son. he was my only son and i grief every day and i don't care if it's been 8 years. i i need justice for my child.
2:15 am
there are so many unsolved homicides out there. my son is one. these cases need to be solved. these men need to be off the street not to murder again. >> thank you miss brown and again there's a 250 there's a $250,000 reward into the investigation into into the murder and chief correct me if i'm wrong i think the anonymous tip line is there and please come forward to tip line is anonymous. thank you miss brown. >> further public comment? >> good evening commissioners, chief, everybody out there my name is jacki bryson and i'm very happy to see you back at
2:16 am
city hall. i was one of the uninformed and i did come last week and that's okay i got to look at the door. in any event, i want to thank you again for coming to the tenderloin and south of market and commissioner commissioner hwang got to see -- 6th street which is where i have to walk. wasn't it kind of scary cautioning up there. i want to talk a little bit about 6th street today because i'm hoping the police will do something to make it less scary. on the corners of 6th street and howard we have a lot of vehicular bicycles and cars bad behavior where if the police were stationed there they might be able to struck might be able to instruct people via ticket that this is the wrong
2:17 am
thing to do. sometimes that's the only way to get the point across to people that's very educational to have a ticket that you have to pay and yesterday i was speaking with a motorcycle police officer who has a lot more patience than i do there was a jerk on a bike riding against traffic and he nicely but firmly said you are going the wrong way and the guy continues to ride and we're talking about he's in the left turn only lane going the wrong way on howard street and turns and says to the officer -- thanks girl if that had been me i probably would have shot him and that's one of the reasons i don't have your job and he didn't do anything and he didn't swear at him and anything and yeah this is the kind of guy we want working in the police department and the person eventually got onto the sidewalk and drove about 20 feet more and back only the the street and so whoever that officer was thank you so much
2:18 am
for keeping your cool other officers who kept their cool were those at project homeless connect today and a lady was determined that she was going to get her california picture id even though the best we could do because the d.m.v. cancelled without telling anyone was to give her a voucher to go get this and she raised such a ruckus and the officer was his usual cool calm and collected self and i'm keen on pj and she got hustled again the second time and i said officer pg is this the second or third strike for her? i don't know the end of that that story but nobody lost their cool and i think that speaks very well of the san francisco police department. >> thank you miss bryson further public comment? welcome. >> hello. my name is larry and i like to be called edmund
2:19 am
juicy and i'm very tired i want to thank -- i mean gascone chief he said he's going to be doing a lot more work with sro hotels and black woman's sons who have been shot in the city and i thank god he knows something that's going on in our hotels and i'm also here to say i'm really looking forward for our police officers in san francisco to get the cameras i hope we're going to be a city that will have cameras very soon and i'd like to see the police walking up market street and it says one of these weekends it's saint patrick's weekend and new year's and i'm tired and i just really want

2:23 am
the commissioner go go to the next line item. >> oh, i think that's me. inspect tore please go go to the next line item. >> the 2015-2016 budget. >> good evening. good evening president loftus commissioners members of the of the must be. so tonight carolyn welsh and i your budget directors are going to present the 15-16 budget very similar to the two prior years and feel free to interrupt me at any time with any questions and normally we would be presenting this budget in february prior to the city
2:24 am
mandated deadline of february 21st but due to the community meetings for redistricting, we submitted the packet to to the commissioners for the for the february 11th meeting and we're here to present in public today and just to remind you of the budget process we submit the budget to the mayor's office on february on february 21st and the controller and the mayor's office review it and load the it budget and capital projects and other enhancements hopefully to the budget the mayor reviews this submits it to the board of supervisors june 1st and that's what the chief presents to the board of supervisors and we have not gotten a hearing scheduled for that yet and tonight we're going to talk very briefly of the budget overview and hiring plan going very well and capital improvement projects technology projects vehicles and
2:25 am
new public safety building. >> so similar to prior years, our department budget is primarily based on general fund we have 533 $533 million in revenue and 413 million of that is general fund and state revenues are about 49.6 $49.6 million and 48 million of that is from the state public safety tax and the remainder of that is some state allocations and federal revenues or grants we've been able to secure for dna backlog and dui and narcotics enforcement and pedestrian safety grants and police services for other departments are work order departments services that we provide for other departments and we'll look at that in a few minutes and fines for services and permits and those are the permits we collect on
2:26 am
behalf of other city departments and the traffic signs by the state legislature and id bureau fines are also collected in that so our revenue, again, we're a general fund department 88.6 percent of our budget is salary and fringes and represented by the blue and red area and our next area of large expenditures are professional services which is are non city owned buildings for rent utilities and maintenance and also in this category are the litigation and that's about 1.1 million $1.1 million and annual it renewals for software and licensing and others 1.1 million and copying and printing of about a million and training expenses are about
2:27 am
another million dollars in this category and also included in this category is the dna testing and sexual assault kits that's 676 thousand that's $676,000 and in this area also our language line and direct translation services are about 40 $40,000. and also in this area there's 3 there's $3 million in designated funds for the id bureau and grants. another large item are materials and supplies and in this is our office supplies are officer's uniforms and safety equipment which is about 2 million $2 million and computer $2 million and computer replacements and crime lab supplies about a half a million dollars and the ma the marine fuel is 80 thousand vet bills for our an animals and
2:28 am
capital projects and lease payments on finance cars is about 392 thousand $392,000 and new replacement cars this year we're scheduled to get fifty unmarked cars that's 1.6 million that's $1.6 million and we're not scheduled to get any marked cars this year and special revenue is about 300 $300,000 for id processing. and a large area of expenditures are departmental charges other departments charge us for services they provide us 39.6 $39.6.01 large expense our workers comp 14.6 million $14.6 million and city it is another ten.6 $10.6 million that includes the charges for our smartphones the ongoing expense and central shops about 5.6 $5.6 million
2:29 am
to maintain our fleet and rent for city owned buildings and utilities is about 6 million $6 million and and smaller work orders with other departments da city attorney and medical examiner and this slide indicates the variety of departments we provide services to with our largest client being the airport police about 53 million $53 million and and we and we have 319 staff out at at the airport and 179 foreign officers and 171 civilians and mta and the port very similar to last year no new clients from last year. >> so this slide indicates our position and it's important to note that this is fte not head count. so the difference between 15-16 from 15-16 to
2:30 am
2014-15 is primarily due to the airport requesting 43 new positions civilian positions and psas and supervisors to help with traffic flow and additional security at lost and found and improve air field security and reduce overtime at the terminals. >> can i stop you just there? sometimes the difference between what an fte and a body is it's not fully understood so if you could just explain that. >> sure so a head count is just the physical person like you know so we will be hiring for example 150 people throughout the year but the cost to the department is not 150 salaries all year long it is at what point we pick
