5:00 pm
sho shooting. awent to the hospital and officer endo seems to be doing fine. it was traumatic for the officers at the hospital and all those involved. i want to thank the members of the police department there to support the officer, his father and mother i will, and all though at the hospital including the command staff and the chief. what do we do? we talk about things in the abstract here. in the hospital after one of the officers has been shot in a shootout, and it's pretty dramatic. it has an impact on you. so i want to thank those officers and the men and women of the department and so proud of them that evening. and then last but not at least, i want to bring everybody's attention that, you know, if you want to see why we have an issue in our system, why the system is broken, you need to log onto captain carl fabry's police department at the tenderloin police station. and they list some incredible things. and i just have to note for people that when you look and you see that people are being
5:01 pm
arrested the same location, multiple times, and in violation to stay away orders and released from custody by the judges. the cases are being charged by the d.a.'s offices, and large quantities of heroin, crack cocaine, and methamphetamine, more than the quantities we used to see as prosecutors, mr. henderson and i, and i mean, federal quantities. yet, they still get the stay away order and are back out on the same corner days later and being arrested. if you want to see why the system is broken, but the hard work of the officers, go to the tenderloin police station twitter account. they handle it professionally and it is well done. it is very frustrating for us who are trying to have the delicate balance of making this the safest city. commissioners? any announcements? okay. public comment on line items three -- >> commission announcements. i'm sorry. i apologize. >> line 3d. >> commission announcements and scheduling of items identified
5:02 pm
for consideration at future commission meetings. >> >> action. >> i think we have the same thing in mind. we would like to add a discussion with the city attorney regarding legal matters rarting the particular -- regarding a particular memo that we received. >> for the record, commissioner de jesus and commissioner molara agreeing to the same thing. >> and not just for discussion, but to put the item back on the agenda. item djo5.02. >> what is our availability look like that when we'll have most commissioners available? >> if i can jump in, i think we need to have somebody from d.h.r. here as well. somebody who is negotiating 5.0. >> but we can have -- we can't have it in open session. there are two things. one is to bring back, to put
5:03 pm
back on the agenda a vote for dgo5.02. as was originally put on the agenda, but we did not accept it as such. and the second piece it sound to me like commissioner hirsch wants to have some clarification from the city attorney to the meet and confer process. >> well, it has to be around a d.g.o.. it can't be a general discussion about legal advice. it is focused on d.g.o. >> if i may interject, deputy city attorney, is we put this on for closed session and advice of counsel from the city attorney's office and if necessary, move to the next step. >> justice as a reminder for items to be in closed session, there has to be a specific authorization by the public meetings act. and so for those, it is just as
5:04 pm
a reminder, it is real estate negotiations, there isn't one in general for attorney-client privilege legal advice. it has to fit into something specific. if you are talking about a specific d.g.o. and the idea is to give direction to your negotiator, then you can have a closed session about that in particular. i feel a little off and not entirely sure what the commissioner -- i heard you want to have a discussion about city attorney advice. and i am kind of confused to exactly what it is. >> well, based on the letter, it sound like we have the choice -- several choices, but the one primarily is to put it back on the agenda, to vote again on it, and with the language that was required and we wanted to have a specific questions about the meet and confer process and negotiations. we can have that in a closed
5:05 pm
session. >> specifically for to put the item d.g.o.5.02, i can work with commission staff to put that back on to the agenda. to have that give direction to your d.h.r. representative who are engaging in the meeting and confer process, in closed session to address specifically your questions and. and that would have to be done in open session. >> i think the commission has voiced our two needs. and you have explained to us the two vehicle of getting there. we don't need to put it on the agenda tonight with a set date. we could do that through the commission president and vice president today, tomorrow, or another day. i think we need to get that on calendar as soon as reasonably possible. great. any other announcements, commissioners? >> i will be out of town next week. won't be here on the 11th. >> let's coordinate our schedules for that. >> the third meeting of the
5:06 pm
month. >> okay. >> can i add for 3d, for the general public, the next meeting for the police commission will be held on wednesday, april 11, here at city hall, room 400 at 5:30 p.m. >> great. now time for public comment with reference to line items 3a, b, c, or d. any public comment with reference to these three line items? hearing none, public comment is now closed. please call the next item. >> line four, discussion and possible action to i a prove the sale of patrol special beat 47 from antoinette candido and beat 3 to patrol special officer alan byard and take other action. >> for the record, i am recused from this matter and turn the gavel over to former president dr. joseph marshall to handle this matter. i'll step out of the room. >> back in the saddle. >> i'm prepared. >> okay.
5:07 pm
>> i have line item 4 been called yet? did he call it yet? yes. okay. involves the sale of -- let me just read this. the three beats. okay. so proceed. >> good evening, commissioners. commissioner scott. before we start, there are two beats that were put together and i would like to have them separated so we're going to vote on each one separately. >> that is fine. >> if we could start with beat 47. and the northern district and the wife of a former patrol special who has since passed away in 2013 wishes to sell the beat. >> speak into the mic. >> we can barely hear you. >> a wishes to spell the beat to special patrol byard and the
5:08 pm
paper work was submitted to you. in there is any questions? >> looks of kay to me. -- looks of kay to me. >> i have looks okay to me. i have no questions. >> i'm not familiar with the process. this is the first time i have heard that a beat can be sold. >> we will have to have two separate motions. >> no, yoi don't have any questions at this point. >> okay. just a brief overline. the city is broken up into particular beats that were purchased by patrol specials and they retain ownership of the beat until it is sold. they may or may not be part of the program. if they are not part of the program, they may not work the beat. so this particular beat, i have a map i can put up if you would like -- give you an idea. that particular beat hadn't been worked for some time, so patrol
5:09 pm
special byard went to is in the northern district. currently patrol special byard owns beat 96. so the beat adjoins that beat and he would have access to that beat. he doesn't have to travel across the city to make sthur his -- to make sure his clients are afforded quick service from him. >> all right. i am seeing the sale price is $100 is what i am seeing. >> correct. >> just so the public knows. this is not a big money deal. >> and it all depend. this one is for $100. >> okay. >> i think you said the owner is deceased? >> the owner is deceased. so it would have gone to his wife, and as parts of probate and i have spoke within her on the phone and she is elderly and
5:10 pm
didn't attend this evening, but i spoke to her and he wishes -- and the sale price is low because when patrol special byard came in in 1977, he worked for her husband, and they had a good relationship, and that is why the price is kind of low. that was when i spoke with her, that was why it was so low. >> so just reading this was on calendar earlier and things to be taken care of in the meantime, and all those things have been dealt with? >> yes, they have. >> all right. so are we moving to approve the sale here tonight? >> correct. >> i need a motion. >> move to approve the sale. >> i second. >> all in favor? >> aye. it's yours. thank you. >> and then the next beat is also in the northern district. >> do you want to read -- did we solve that item yet? >> they are under two separate items. >> there we go. >> is beat 83.
5:11 pm
and it is -- >> got it. >> and this beat, the beat owner is a former patrol special delores lovett-menge and the sale price is $20,000 for this beat. and he's completed all the paper work as with the last beat. i assume they were not friend. that is why it is so high. >> i'm sorry? >> i guess they were not friends. >> this is more of a regular price. and on the last beat to give you an idea, it sold for $100,000. >> wow. >> any discussion? i move to approve this item. >> i second that. >> all in favor? >> aye. >> sale is approved. >> thank you. >> thank you.
5:12 pm
congratulations. does we come back for item five or is he also out for this item? >> i think he was only out for item four. >> we'll git him back. wherever he is. the discussion and possible action and with the disciplinary and case al-wiad and 20-130 # an

5:18 pm
had issued with patrols specials adhering to the rules, so everything is in order now. and you are confident that -- >> i am confident because we have officer brown on top of this. everything is in order. guarantee it. >> commissioner, any other further questions? >> madam city attorney. >> before any vote on this item, you need to open it for public comment and i am apologize, but i failed to note that before the last vote. we would need to redo that vote on approving the sales of those specials. >> is there any public comment regarding this disposition with patrol special calvin wiley? hearing none, public comment is closed. >> do i have a motion? >> so moved. >> second. >> thank you, patrol special

5:22 pm
remarks to the commission as a whole and not to individual commissioners or department or d.p.a. personnel,. under police commission rules of order, neither police nor d.p.a. personnel, nor commissioner are required to respond to questions presented by the public, but may provide a brief response. individual commissioners and police and d.p.a. personnel should refrain, however, from entering into any debates or discussion with speakers during public comment. >> thank you very much. general public comment. welcome back. >> thank you for letting me speak. i came to talk about the taser issue specifically. i know there's been several meetings already. and i have come because i believe we still have an opportunity to move the pendulum in our society from that of collective fear to that of
5:23 pm
collective bravery. i think one of the ways to do this, although it may only be a drop in the bucket is to spend money where it matters. i don't believe putting more money into weapons is going to help us achieve that goal. i think we need to spend our money on de-escalation, on conflict resolution, on many other things but not on more weapons. i feel that the name of the taser ballot measure which is, i believe, the safer policing initiative, is a lie. i don't see how carrying more weapons makes anyone safer. i don't think it's too late to reverse the ed situation.
5:24 pm
and we're all here. the only thing holding us up is ourselves. i don't think it's too late to reers is the decision and i think it should be left off the ballot. i think whatever you can do as a commission to keep this measure off the ballot would be greatly appreciated and in the best interest of our community. thank you. >> thank you very much. >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> good evening, commissioners. i am a legislative aide to supervisor cohen here on behalf of the office of supervisor cohen. there is a very important item that i will be discussing today and i look forward to relaying that information back to the supervisor and the board of supervisors and supervisor cohen. >> thank you so much. thank you for coming. >> miss brown? good evening, miss brown.
