11:00 pm
i'm a proponent of the training facility. i'm sure it's in an area that needs some -- you know, more infrastructure like that for training and opportunities for some of the young kids in there just to know that it's right around the corner. and it'll create construction jobs, good union jobs for local hire, supplement our apprenticeship program, and put people to work, so i'm call for that, growing the fire department, and i hope, you know, we made some kind of impact on that. it was a pleasure to do it, and i think that the chief was doing a great job, and that's all i've got to say. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you, commissioner morgan. i think it was the influence of trying to recruit members of the community of color in
11:01 pm
terms, as well, and the chief made a remark, i believe it was the president of the port commission, they talked about how repressed he was that department came with a team, with the chief, with the command staff, with the commissioners, as well. all of this subject matter, chief nicholson, did you want to put anything else in there before we move on, tom o'connor? >> no. you spoke well. thank you for your support, commissioner morgan. it was super helpful. thank you. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you, chief, and chief nicholson and chief o'connor are going to the advisory committee, and i want to thank olivia scanlon,
11:02 pm
as well. madam secretary, do i need to call chief o'connor? >> clerk: we've already called him. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. deputy chief? >> clerk: okay. let me pass him the ball here. >> okay. good evening, vice president nakajo, commissioners, chief nicholson. i'm deep chief tom o'connor, chief of administration, and this is my report from administration. all right. all right. good evening, commissioners.
11:03 pm
we'll begin with diversity, equity, and inclusion office. the fire department participated in two separate city job fairs, one on january 22, and another on february 12. inspector kato talking to the mission high school about services at our fire department, and [indiscernible] from the office of outreach recruitment and development spoke virtually. the students at [indiscernible] high school and lieutenant anderson also attended the santa rosa junior fire academy
11:04 pm
to talk to them about fire prevention. here's another repeat of pictures. natasha parks had a busy month, as well. this was snuck in by teresa, assistant, and we had a great, great moment at headquarters today. chief [indiscernible] tendered his badge today, and this is a great, great milestone today. he's been cleared for duty on his [indiscernible] office, department of motor vehicles, and we did a little sneak attack on matt. we passed the commission room with his sister, lieutenant
11:05 pm
alba, the therapy dog, matt's wife, daughter, his classmates from when he got into the fire department. the team from engine 21, the -- where he was a captain, the team from engine 36 where he was a firefighter, and it was very emotional for all of us to see him doing so well. it was a great moment for the fire department to see matt to get that badge and to move on in his career and beat cancer. january was also cancer awareness month in the fire service, and in partnership with the cancer awareness foundation, week two, we saw that we delved into the scientific research that indicates the link between occupational exposures and cancer rates in firefighters.
11:06 pm
week three, we looked at the best practices on the ground, and we talked about scene contamination and talked about keeping our turnout gear clean from all the cancer contaminants [indiscernible] and last, we talked about supporting our fellow brothers and sisters [indiscernible] and to provide resources to assist them, so a big month for us, and begin, kind of capped off by the watching chief alba today. our positions office, chief [indiscernible] and deputy phelps had the busiest month of all. you can see we had the largest surge of covid from december 19
11:07 pm
to january 31. we had 314 members sick with covid, and i think this speaks to the great burden of overtime that fell upon them. all of the men and women in the fire department had to work hard during this pandemic. it was a team effort, and we really had to thank everybody in the field what they went through with the department. [indiscernible] to april 2 now. she had to give a longer notice to leave d.p.h. we don't have her yet.
11:08 pm
we're going to have her son. 129 class and the h-3 level two class, and we'll be sponsoring the big climb at [indiscernible] stadium and we're going to challenge ourselves to climb 750 steps in support of blood cancer and research support. [indiscernible] tests negative. our testing numbers were so low because of the omicron outbraem, but testing has now resumed. we had three postaccident drug tests were administered. two negative and unfortunately one was positive.
11:09 pm
for support services, assistant deputy chief ramon serrano, again, one of our busiest players, you can see that fire station 35 is coming along nicely. we put in a new concrete base and finished the concrete work outside the manifold, and we commissioned all of the building's systems. so it's a very complex building, and we commissioned all of the systems and all of our members so they knew how to operate the facility. we also had 142 service requests in the month of january. 140 of those were completed. we had to remove a request at stations 3, 19, and 42.
11:10 pm
fire station 39 need all new roof units, and fire station 13 needs to replace the entire rooftop unit. our support services, we had our first tractor drawn aerials. a mobile unit and three new units were shipped to the factory where they're going to the final punch lift in all of the rigs. [indiscernible] we're coordinating with our e.m.s. team to finalize the [indiscernible] with type one ambulances, and we're trying to find ambulances that are available. with the supply chain issues, it's difficult to get vehicles right now, but we're doing our best. again, [indiscernible] and that is my report for the month of january, and let me see if i can minimize this screen.
11:11 pm
thank you, commissioners. maureen, i think that you are -- >> clerk: and i believe we have one person on the call-in. >> commissioner nakajo: all right. members of the public, can you call that member of the public, please? >> clerk: yes. would you like to make public comment? >> yes, ma'am. >> clerk: okay. you have three minutes. >> this is captain matt hutchinson. good afternoon, command staff, san francisco fire commissioners, members of the public. can you hear me, ma'am? >> clerk: yes, i can. >> i currently serve in the
11:12 pm
mission district. i apologize. due to user error, i wasn't able to log in at the appropriate time under general public comment and the approval of the minutes. respectfully request that i be able to comment on our union meeting. it's a one-day event on sutter street from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. we cordially request the fire commission to attend. before covid, it's been an annual event. our last event was [indiscernible] this year, we have one of our very own ba tallian chief [indiscernible] rescue two in the mission district. he's heavily involved in urban
11:13 pm
search and rescue training. the second speaker will be from fdny. his name is lieutenant mickey convoy. command sergeant ed thomas, u.s. army. i served with him in the second ranger batallion, and he went onto serve delta ranger unit. the second speaker [indiscernible] 24 years of service. the topics range from leadership, resiliency, optimizing [indiscernible] the board and leadership, etc. this class is beneficial to all ranks and members. not only do we have members of the san francisco fire department, we have members from sfpd and the fire service throughout northern california. this is an expensive endeavor,
11:14 pm
and our local supporters are local 798, s.f. fire credit union, and the s.f. fire chiefs association. again, we cordially invite all members of our command staff and the fire commission to support us in our efforts, and it would give them opportunity to see the good impact that we make in our community. it provides an opportunity to learn from a top performers from the fire service and the military and inspires our members to become better and implement the takeaways. thank you for the opportunity to provide the presentation. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you very much, matt hutchison, president of the san francisco firefighters association, and thank you for the invitation. at this point, is there any questions in terms of the
11:15 pm
commissioners to chief o'connor, please? commissioner cleaveland, please? >> commissioner cleaveland: thank you, mr. vice president, and thank you, chief o'connor, for your report. a couple of clarifications. in the chief's report, she mentioned that there were 13 members in quarantine. in your report, you mentioned 300, so i'm trying to reconcile, is it 13 new members, and we have 300 current members in quarantine? i wasn't quite sure what that number meant? >> thank you, commissioner. over the course of mid-december to the end of january, we had 314 in quarantine, and we're down to the number that chief nicholson mentioned. the numbers are dropping dramatically, so that's why our
11:16 pm
quarantine is going down, as well. >> commissioner cleaveland: okay. the numbers are dropping. you have one positive drug test. what do you do when you come up with a positive drug test? >> we send it in for a confirmatory test. we take the person off duty and put them on leave. they can get a second test that they can send out to a private facility for test. >> and if i may, commissioner cleaveland, we terminated this individual. >> commissioner cleaveland: oh, wow. thank you for that. last question, on the hose tender thing, we currently have two hose tenders. how many do we have in service right now? >> we have four in service right now. >> commissioner cleaveland: okay. we have four on service right now and two in order, is that
11:17 pm
correct? >> we have one in development and three ready to purchase. we have one in development, run through all the bugs and make sure that it's to our specs and survive the training in san francisco. we get one to complete the training and then complete the order. >> commissioner cleaveland: so we've got four, if you will, and one more in the pipeline, which is great. >> three more in the pipeline. i'm not quite sure. we have four currently in service, three that were old, and one that's kind of new, and we're testing it? >> we have four that are old in service right now, we have three new ones coming. one is in development, and then two will be built. >> commissioner cleaveland: okay. one plus two. how long does it take from ordering the hose tender to getting a hose tender?
11:18 pm
it seems like it's a really long time. it seems unnecessarily long, but nothing we can control. could you give us a little timeline from ordering had to getting it for our public watching? >> so it's a fairly unique development. you arrested it. it goes to a city department where they go over the specs, and then, it goes out to bids, and there are responses on the bids, and then, it goes to contract. and we're in the process of sorting everything out. and i believe i spoke on this last time. the pumps are being tested down in tested. they're testing them down in texas and then they're going to
11:19 pm
bring them back up, and i believe that deputy chief serrano would like to add -- do you have anything you would like to add? >> yes. chief o'connor is right. the pumps have -- are in process in production, and they are, i believe, en route to texas for testing. they will be testing at teal's. they are custom pieces. they are not off the shelf. everything about them in custom cleaveland claefl that was my question. that was going to be a follow up. these hose tenders, we can't kbie them off the shelf. there's no standard hose tender
11:20 pm
of a certain size or a length of hose, so to speak. we have to custom design each one or do we have a design that we use over and over again within the san francisco fire department? >> we have a spec that we designed just in the last couple of years, and that will be the proto-type. if that is adopted, we will use those or we will make any adjustments that need to be done. >> commissioner cleaveland: it should speed up the process, i would think. >> yes. once it's accepted, the process will be sped up. typically, right now, the whole industry, the car and truck industry right now is slowed down because of supply chain issues. >> commissioner cleaveland: right, right, but that's good news for the future. obviously, the report we had several years ago called for 20, that we needed really 20
11:21 pm
hose tenders within the at the present time to adequately protect the west side of the city, and so i would like to -- i'm encouraged to hear that we're going to have a prototype. i'd like to commend chief alba for coming back, getting pinned today and wish him well and continued improvement every single day, so that's all my questions and remarks, mr. vice president. thank you, and thank you, chief o'connor, for your report. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you very much, commissioner cleaveland. questions, commissioner covington or commissioner morgan? >> commissioner morgan: yeah,
11:22 pm
just keep up the great work, chief o'connor, and great to see you again. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. thank you so much. commissioner covington? >> commissioner covington: i have so many notes here. i'm drowning in notes. i'll just make my comments brief. i think that assistant chief alba, this is such good news. today is a really good day at a.b.c., matt alba, and it's been a long haul, and he is now at a good place, you know, with his health and probably just running around the fire house,
11:23 pm
so glad to be back home, and so i'm glad for him. i did have one question, oh, concerning the positive drug test. it has been a very long time since someone has shown up with a positive drug test, so i think that after the termination of the person that was tested and tested positive for drugs will serve as an example to everyone, do not do it. no drinking and no drugs, because you will be let go. so i'm sure that the word is out on that, as well as it should be. i don't have any other questions or comments at this time. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you very much, commissioner.
11:24 pm
i have just a few questions and comments, chief o'connor. thank you for your comprehensive presentation. at some point, and i'll leave it up to yourself and the discretion of the chief. last night at the port commission, you narrated a slide presentation, and at some point, i think that slide presentation kind of answered all of the questions of the commissioners as to what we're thinking about, or i just think it's a great presentation, so i think at some point, you might want to share that with the commissioners. i have a question, assignment office, page 25, and then, i have some comments and questions for chief serrano. chief o'connor, in terms of
11:25 pm
investigative service [indiscernible] on page 21, captain lars ascalan, is this a new assignment, chief, relative to -- i don't want to say his name wrong. >> captain jose zalba, we moved him out into the wild, and ascalan is taking his place. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. that's great. okay. thank you very much, chief. on page 25, assistant captain ed chu, on the research and planning assignment office, in parentheses, line two, are you there, chief, with me? line two of the emswdo, and
11:26 pm
then line eight? so line two talks about advanced creating continuing general office, and it says prehiring 75% of open ambulances seven days in advance. i quite don't understand what that means. >> so traditionally, we've had people sign up for an overtime shift on the time they're working the following day, but we found out we could incentivize people signing up early, and we could find out where our shortfalls were and we could reward them for signing up early for the weekend. they were trying to incentivize the positions out there as quickly as possible, so they could minimize the impact on
11:27 pm
everybody. it really helps a lot, and especially, the rough, rough winter we had with omicron, so we could get people signed up to minimize the impact on our other workers. >> commissioner nakajo: i appreciate that, chief, and then, section eight, in terms of the 50% description? >> right. same policy. we're just trying to minimize the kbokt of omicron on our members. >> commissioner nakajo: i appreciate that, and i think it's important to take into consideration the mandatory overtime. it must be tough, must be a pretty good challenge with, again, the prop f and just trying to keep the department operational, so thank you for
11:28 pm
that description. moving over to chief serrano, through the chief, if i could ask a couple of comments and questions, chief serrano. i'm on page 20. are you with me? >> yes. >> commissioner nakajo: when i read this whole report, is this a new format or different format that you've produced since you've taken over this particular position? it seems like it reads easier for me in terms of facility management and planning. >> i believe it's a newer format. we've tried to make it easier to read to understand the projects that we're dealing
11:29 pm
with, support services. we're open to any kind of criticism or anything that would make it easier for people to read it. >> commissioner nakajo: that was my comment because it sure became easier for me to read in terms of the 15 or 17 pages going through it. it's a title, a facility maintenance in planning. in terms of the parentheses in june, who is that personnel, please? >> she's one of the administrative analysts here at support services, and she handles all of our day-to-day information as far as taking care of all of the problems or repairs that take place at all of our facilities be it the
11:30 pm
plumbers, steam fitters, etc. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. she's a viflian employee? >> she's a civilian employee. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. great. moving forward, i'm on page 31. i like it because then, it goes to that section, and here's the eser bond section. i'm going to move this over to page 32, which, again, goes to another heading. i like the bold focus, header and scope program. it runs down all of the areas, so it makes easier reading. i'm on page 33, i'm at fire station 7, and there's a lot of material in here, but i don't know exactly beyond on hold what that means, and as i read through it, it seemed a little bit more alarming, if you will,
11:31 pm
and i don't need to be alarmed, but i just need a little bit of narrative in terms of that, chief. >> so that might be some of the repairs and projects that are being coming up for station 7 are being put on hold for various reasons. some of it is you have to prioritize some of the other repairs but some of it might be due to the fact that station 7 is due to be rebuilt or tore down and so we are holding off on certain things to do with station 7 because there's no sense in putting so much money into it and then just tearing it down. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. okay. thank you. that clarifies some things. again, i'm moving over to page 34. again, we've gone through all of this material, the eser bond, and then, there's another
11:32 pm
setting, page 16, and then, there's station 49, and i'm proud of station 49. there's a bullet point, and i know that commissioners are interested in [indiscernible] i think that was an associate matter that's been going on for a while, so again, i'm anxiously awaiting it. just love that station 49. as i move down to emergency file [indiscernible] perhaps just for yourself to chief o'connor, chief o'connor, you occupy a position that has something to do with awss. what is the format of oversight on that area or how do i read that. is awss now under support services? can i get a little nair on
11:33 pm
that? >> [indiscernible] and we're going to repurpose that job [indiscernible] into something more comprehensive going forward. deputy chief serrano is in charge. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. anything you want to add, chief serrano [indiscernible] now back to support services? anything you want to add, chief serrano? >> actually, i'm meeting with captain stuttgart, and i have met with water department supervisors and directors, and they will be including me in all these meetings that will be coming up for that awss for the emergency -- the efws now. >> commissioner nakajo: chief nicholson, being incorporated
11:34 pm
within support services, appreciate it, chief serrano being brought up to date. who is david meyerson [indiscernible]? i see p.u.c. is that staff of p.u.c.? >> that is correct, yes. >> commissioner nakajo: and i'm almost done, chief serrano. on the bottom of this, is captain [indiscernible] wong, does he manage this when you were running that shop? >> yes, captain vince wong is the captain of the vrbo equipment. >> commissioner nakajo: that's good. continuity. i'm on last page, 35
11:35 pm
[indiscernible] i hope i'm saying his name right? >> we're being superstitious. we're not filling the job until we see nick out in the field. >> commissioner nakajo: all right, chief o'connor. i like that. i like covering the bases and the opportunities there. all i know is, chief nicholson, with all the members coming in, that's a big demand for all the uniforms. nothing is far more better than level one or two. any member that wears the uniform or a shirt or recognition within the department, i just think it makes so much sense, and also, commissioners, at that port commission, what was going on in terms of chief nicholson, did i say that right, the technical program that trains
11:36 pm
young members of the bayview community? >> the city e.m.t. program, is that what you're referring to, vice president? >> commissioner nakajo: i just encourage the formality of all of that, chief nicholson. that's all i have. and thank you for your comprehensive report. madam secretary. >> may i interject for one moment? >> commissioner nakajo: yes. >> one thing that i neglected to tell you about today is you may have seen in the news last night, yesterday, we had a press conference for our two new k9s that were brought into the department. yesterday was official hand off to the san francisco fire department, k9 marley and k9
11:37 pm
sadie, our new dogs are now officially part of the san francisco fire department, so it was a feel good happy story, ktvu channel 2 news did. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you for that announcement. it was a great, great announcement, as well. i saw that presentation, and at some point, i look forward to meeting the new members of the our fire department. madam secretary? >> clerk: item 6, agenda for next and future fire commission meetings. >> commissioner nakajo: commissioners, agenda for this and future fire commission meetings? commissioner morgan? i think you're muted if you're saying something, commissioner. >> commissioner morgan: yeah, i'd like to ask the chief how
11:38 pm
much -- how much salary is marley and sadie getting here? >> they're [indiscernible] and really nice vests. >> commissioner morgan: yeah, they're -- i seen them on t.v. they're adorable. i can't wait to meet them. >> commissioner covington: what, no dog biscuits? >> commissioner morgan: well, i'll bring something for them. >> commissioner nakajo: we'll see if that can be a line item in the budget. >> commissioner covington: mr. corso, please let us know. >> commissioner nakajo: commissioner cleaveland, commissioner covington? >> commissioner cleaveland: yeah, i have nothing. >> commissioner nakajo: commissioner covington? >> commissioner covington: yeah, just to follow up on the
11:39 pm
k9 members. the chief did give up one source of financial support. are there any other sources of financial support for the k9s? >> the nfrs are supporting the k9s for the next however many years, and former fire commissioner joe elliott veronese is the founder of that 501-c-3, and with much gratitude to him for supporting our k9s moving forward, and much gratitude to [indiscernible] foundation and the tens of thousands of dollars of work they put into those special dogs, as well. >> commissioner covington: good, good. well, former commissioner veronese has a big heart for
11:40 pm
the department, and i would like to thank him for his continued support. that's all i have. >> thank you for that presenter reminder, commissioner. >> commissioner covington: sure. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you very much. madam secretary, item 7? >> clerk: there's no one on the public comment line on item 7. item 7, public comment on item 8. public comment on all matters pertaining to items 8 below, including public comment on whether to hold items 8-b in closed session. there are no callers on the public caller line. >> commissioner nakajo: okay. madam secretary? >> clerk: all right. possible closed session
11:41 pm
regarding personnel matters. vote on whether to conduct items 8-b in closed session. the commission may hear items 8-b in closed session pursuant to government said section 54957-b and administration code section 67.10-b. >> so moved. >> second. >> commissioner nakajo: >> clerk: item 10, vote to elect whether to disclose items
11:42 pm
items discussed in closed session? >> commissioner cleaveland: i move not to disclose. >> commissioner covington: i second. >> commissioner nakajo: thank you very much for the motion and the second. [roll call] >> clerk: the vote is unanimous, and item 9 is adjournment. >> commissioner covington: so moved. >> commissioner cleaveland: second. [roll call] >> clerk: very good. we will adjourn at 6:20. >> commissioner covington: thank you very much, everybody. have a good night. >> clerk: see you tomorrow.
11:44 pm
san francisco is surrounded on three sides by water, the fire boat station is intergal to maritime rescue and preparedness, not only for san francisco, but for all of the bay area. [sirens] >> fire station 35 was built in 1915. so it is over 100 years old. and helped it, we're going to build fire boat station 35. >> so the finished capital planning committee, i think about three years ago, issued a guidance that all city facilities
11:45 pm
must exist on sea level rise. >> the station 35, construction cost is approximately $30 million. and the schedule was complicated because of what you call a float. it is being fabricated in china, and will be brought to treasure island, where the building site efficient will be constructed on top of it, and then brought to pier 22 and a half for installation. >> we're looking at late 2020 for final completion of the fire boat float. the historic firehouse will remain on the embarcadero, and we will still respond out of the historic firehouse with our fire engine, and respond to medical calls and other incidences in the district. >> this totally has to incorporate between three
11:46 pm
to six feet of sea level rise over the next 100 years. that's what the city's guidance is requiring. it is built on the float, that can move up and down as the water level rises, and sits on four fixed guide piles. so if the seas go up, it can move up and down with that. >> it does have a full range of travel, from low tide to high tide of about 16 feet. so that allows for current tidal movements and sea lisle rises in the coming decades. >> the fire boat station float will also incorporate a ramp for ambulance deployment and access. >> the access ramp is rigidly connected to the land side, with more of a pivot or hinge connection, and then it is sliding over the top of the float. in that way the ramp can flex up and down like a
11:47 pm
hinge, and also allow for a slight few inches of lateral motion of the float. both the access ramps, which there is two, and the utility's only flexible connection connecting from the float to the back of the building. so electrical power, water, sewage, it all has flexible connection to the boat. >> high boat station number 35 will provide mooring for three fire boats and one rescue boat. >> currently we're staffed with seven members per day, but the fire department would like to establish a new dedicated marine unit that would be able to respond to multiple incidences. looking into the future, we have not only at&t park, where we have a lot of kayakers, but we have a lot of developments in the southeast side, including the stadium, and we want to have the ability to respond to any marine or
11:48 pm
maritime incident along these new developments. >> there are very few designs for people sleeping on the water. we're looking at cruiseships, which are larger structures, several times the size of harbor station 35, but they're the only good reference point. we look to the cruiseship industry who has kind of an index for how much acceleration they were accommodate. >> it is very unique. i don't know that any other fire station built on the water is in the united states. >> the fire boat is a regional asset that can be used for water rescue, but we also do environmental cleanup. we have special rigging that we carry that will contain oil spills until an environmental unit can come out. this is a job for us, but it is also a way of life and a lifestyle.
11:49 pm
11:50 pm
me. >> i just get excited and my nickname is x usher my mom calls me i stuck out like a sore thumb for sure hey everybody i'm susan kitten on the keys from there, i working in vintage clothing and chris in the 30's and fosz and aesthetic. >> i think part of the what i did i could have put on my poa he focus on a lot of different musical eras. >> shirley temple is created as ahsha safai the nation with happens and light heartenness
