by calling 415---alternatively you may submit public comment on either ways. or written comments may be sent to the public safety buildings. if you would like to make public comment, please press star 3 now. good evening caller, you have two minutes .d >> speaker: so this commission welcome. i hope you all had some rest. and i want to speak in general about quality of life issues in our city. and i also want to stress that

we need a police force closest to the number of 2000 we now have a police force that cannot manage. because of the pandemic but also because of other issues that impact the citizens of san francisco. so after some rest, hopefully we'll be able to think outside of the box, and hopefully we'll be able to work with three or four new commissions that the

city is bringing on board. one with dpw street and sanitation, the sheriff has some sort of oversight body and so on and so forth. and a lot of them, we look forward to the san francisco police commission. and i want to wish you all the best. thank you very much. >> good evening, caller you have two minutes. >> i'm aaron, and i'm a resident of district 1 and i work with disparity. the following is our quote from our founder brenda jones. i'm going to call it what it is, anti blackness. in terms of racial profiling or traffic stops. i've grown tired of talking to

the police commission and to the board of supervisors. where is the urgency? if the tables were turned i know there would be an urgency. when are you going to take the bias, you took an oath to uphold the law for all san franciscoians. i'm tired of beating a dead horse, tired enough to look at new sources that look at this blackness and urgency. wealth and disparity in the black community wrote the commissioners last week regarding the working group process for d g.o. data 1, lack of response reenforces this urgency. at the last working meeting at the end of pretext tiles, there were several problems that needed to be addressed. the commission has been holding these meetings in the police station and in the middle of

the workday. some of the officers and po a members being out right hostile in the meetings. black san franciscoians and preventing them from participating. we have said this is about police process for years. these meets should be held during a time and place of convenience to people in the black community. thank you. >> good evening, caller you have two minutes. >> good evening, i'm a community organizer just calling about two separate things. one is, metal barricades that have been positioned outside of

the sfaition that represent an act of issue for the neighborhood as well as, just the community safe that exist along the street and been there for over two years. called to be taken down, commission captain, also that he didn't see an issue coming down. and over a month later, there is still remain ing out, it would be great to see those removed as soon as possible. separately, just wanted to bring attention to the lack of traffic enforcement specifically on focus on the five violations and specifically on the high injury network as some of you may have seen covered and methodical, there are about 5 traffic citations per day compared to 74, 2018. and of those, less than 50% are

on focused on five violations the most dangerous behaviors and violations that lead to fatalities and injuries on the streets due to cars. furthermore less than half of those are in the high injury network where we know that the most dangerous things happen. we need to see, traffic enforcement specifically on focus on the five and on the high injury network focus on. the department can be focused on anything else, those are life threatening violations and we know where they happen on. so it would be great to see the department prioritize that type of enforcement on the injury' network. as well as decrease on non life threatening citations. >> thank you, caller. good evening, caller you have two minutes. >> speaker: my name is susan and i volunteer with we wills

disparity in the black community. the following is a friend from my friend felicia jones. there is an urgency to address the injustice of san francisco an, i'm going to call it what it is, anti blackness. i have grown tired of talking to the commission and to the board of supervisors where is the urgency. as i said i'm tired but not tired enough to quit but tired of beating a dead horse. and therefore we sought help from terity. we wrote about problem with the

working progress. we received not a single response showing once again that you show no sense of urgency when it comes to protecting black lives. on the purpose definition and limits on questions and searches portion of the proposed to end stock. at the second meeting on august 25th or xhtation was that the members of the working group who discussed similarity to recommendations and have a chance to work on censors. this did not happen. considering the importance, the working group should not be rushed through the process. each step should be designed to lay the groundwork for the next. you need to address this immediately. thank you. thank you, caller. good evening, caller you have two minutes.

>> hello i'm gene. quoed, there is an urgency to address the unjust us of san franciscoians and i'm going to call it what it is, anti blackness, in terms of use of force by sfpd, i've grown tired of talking to police. where is the urgency, if the tables were turned and these statistics represented white folks, i know it would address white folks. you took an oath to uphold the law as i said i'm tired of beating a dead horse to find this anti blackness and urgency.

reenforcement and lack of urgency. on august 19th more than half of the so-called group are police related and most of these are individuals. why is this being allowed. many of these especially the poa comments are clearly meant to obstruct the entire process. meanwhile tonight they're going to do a report of its most resent statistics from march 2022, reporting six months after the fact not expecting to do better shows a complete lack of urgency. the march report sites a black san franciscoians is 15 times to experience force. 10 times to be arrested and 5 times to be likely to be stopped by a racial profiling. when will you enact meaningful change to address these injustices. thank you. >> thank you, caller. good evening, caller, you have two minutes.

>> thank you, my name is lisa, i'm a d3 resident. i'm calling to discuss traffic violence and enforcement but i also wanted reiterate what a caller was discussing a little bit ago about the baracade at the mission station. really hostile environment that they create. and as far as i know, the department has said they will take them down. the supervisors those need to come down, there is just a terrible reflection of the department. on the traffic violence and enforcement, i really hope that you'll do a better job at enforcement and focus on the five, we really needed it so dangerous on the streets. and i know that some of the

officers have been reassigned. i and my family are in different neighborhood that bike and take uni regularly if not every day at least every week, we have a close call with something. and it's just enforcement nowhere. i understand you have a lot on your plate but you need to do better, this is critical for the community. thank you very much. >> thank you, caller. that is the end of public comment. >> all right, thank you. chief graph, you can give an update on the baracades report. >> are you talking about va lenzia street commissioner? >> right. >> yes, sure. >> great, thank you.

>> next item. >> as a reminder line item 10 has been removed and will be calendared at a later time. number 2, adoption of minutes for july 6, july 13 and july 20, 2022 and i need a motion and a second. i'll motion. >> i'll second. >> second by commissioner walker. >> on the motion commissioner walker how do you vote? >> yes. >> commissioner walker is yes. >> commissioner bendicto. >> yes. >> commissioner benedicto is yes. >> yes. >> i'ver stone is yes. >> commissioner ye. >> yes. >> commissioner ye is yes. and commissioner elias. >> yes.

comment online item number 2 please press star-9 now. and we have no public comment. >> great next item please. >> item 4, chief's report, discussion, weekly crime and provide an overview of incident or events occurring in san francisco. will be limited to determine whether the calendar for a future meeting, chief scott. >> thank you. sergeant young blood. good evening, president elias and good evening to the public. i'll start off this week's chief report i'm going to give a brief overview and then go to some other items that have been requested for us to report on. including the baracade issue that was just passed by

commissioner e lieas and status report on our d g.o. as far as crime we're up 8% and that break down total violent crime is 6 and property crime is up 9%. difference juflt under 3000 crimes more than last year. in terms of propagate crimes, burglars are down 23%. >> when we compare these numbers to 2019, they're down 18% in terms of auto burglars. we saw a decrease when the pandemic began however we saw significant increase in 2021, and we're up in 2022 from 2021. still below where we were when

we were at&t all-time high back in 2017. violent crimesing are up 6% which includes homicide, sexual assault, and human trafficking, rob he's. homicides are down by 2. that's 6% decrease. and sexual up 8%, assaults are up 10% and human trafficking is down 56%. specifically in terms of homicide, as i said there is been a 6% decrease. we did have one over the weekend and couple other shootings that may result in victims. our clearance. resulting 141 gun violent

victims, that includes homicide and 115 non fatal victims. our firearm procedures, 694 which is three above where we were last year. of those 129 are ghost guns and that's exactly the same number as we were a year to date last year in terms of both guns. but that number, the 129 is 139% increase over 2020 and 158% increase over the ghost guns that are recovered were recovered a year to date 2019. significant incident as i mentioned, we had a homicide over the weekend, and this occured at the 100 block of oak dale. this is on september 4th. officers responded for multiple fire notifications. two victims were transported

and transported with life threatening injuries. one of the victims, and second one is in critical condition with life threatening injuries. a third victim with gunshot wounds that was possibly involved in this incident, self transported to the hospital. it appeared that three of the four suspects opened fire on a group of people in a parking lot and they struck our victims. that third victim the investigation is still on going to determine where that shooting occured. but there is, there is some evidence that it may have been related to this incident. following the incident station command developed a plan to patrols and other neighborhood.

that there could be retaliation from the shootings so we patrolled those areas. and one is on the 100 block of valencia. the victim was approached by a subject that was ex co-worker. the victim and suspect got in a fight at which time the subject pulled out a gun. subject was transported to the hospital and suspect was taken to custody. and 300 block of ocean avenue inglewood. officers responded to reporting a shooting and located a victim to gunshot in the chest. the victim was shot by an

unknown subject. that case is still under investigation. our crime against children, icac made an arrest of a person in possession of child pornography. on a social media platform. resulted in a identification of a suspect resident of liver moore california. and on august 19 of this year, a search warrant was served in the resident in liver more. it was determined that there were additional victims. suspect was booked on charges of communicating with a child to produce child pornography.

also booked on 288.281 and 311.4c pc. there was a retail theft of what we believe was a significant arrest on 831 responded to the safe way on 30th and mission regarding a shoplifting. two suspects were identified in at least two resent deaths in which 2000 worth of merchandise was stolen. the third subject was located by officer and also taken into custody. this was the 6th arrest since 2020. so that case is being pursued by a district attorney's office.

next incident was a arresting that occured. the officer working in property recognized the suspect from a crime bulletin that was issued and notified the investigators who responded and took the subject into custody. this subject was booked on assault of a deadly weapon. next is a robbery with a gun theories. the subtsds were also suspected of committing other rob he's.

at the time of their arrest the subject had just committed a robbery in the area where the ghost gun was used. this was a series incident and i want to give hats off to these investigates. a lot of work went into thao case to identify these individuals. again another impact arrest with some very dangerous people robbing the bay area. last incident to report is a hit-and-run with serious injuries that occured on september third, at mer sadie's way. traveling at a high rate of speed and collided with another vehicle. the two occupants and the two

occupants of the vehicle were later lifted in critical but stable condition. during the course it was learned that the suspect vehicle was used in a string of burglars and suspected of just having committed a theft minutes before the commission. stolen merchandise was found in the car as gathered and seen in the collision. this investigation is on going and no arrest have been made at this time. our strategy include, there were several street robberies victims walking alone and there were several other that continues to be a concern.

many of them continue to be display a gun. where we have these times of crimes, we also deploy with our uniform patrols in these areas and extra patrols including our tourism employment where we have high tourism populations. richmond division in richmond we're focusing on high visibility patrol. as i said earlier, we're down burglars but we still have issues that we have to contend with. information was developed by ss a for partners of crime prevention as well as an awareness video that was included in the monthly newsletter. community members have been remind today consider installing auto garage doors to deter break ins as a prevention

mechanism. no stunt driver to report this week and no fatal traffic incidents. i'm going to move onto the baracade that commissioner elias asked about. so it was along va lenz i can't. there have been a lot of community concerns about what is happening on the sidewalk in the mission district, legal street vending including fencing of property. including aggressive behavior sidewalk that is sometimes inpassable from that activity. and i and captain along with others, have been involved in a number of community meetings regarding this issue. so the baracades were put in place to hold the ground once

the sidewalks were cleaned up. they have some success in doing so. and that is not a long term strategy that is a temporary band-aid solution to try to keep the sidewalk clean. after they have been explained by the department. valencia is not the only place where they have been baracade. we have baracade there working with bars on that issue. that has caused some community discussion as well. we're also looking in conjunction with our supervisor hillary community base solutions and strategy to deal with this issue. worse case scenario happens about a week and a half ago where there was a stabbing at the bar plaza.

and that also raised a lot of communitied concern. so that actual case is being investigated by our pd by our m.o. u. but those behaviors that i just described are to community concern, i met with many business owners and shop owners there that are really fed up with what is going on and they're asking our city lead inventories do something. on top of that, there is quite a bit of narcotic usage and trafficking a miss everything that i just mentioned. so that's another thing that our police department is working the problem and doing some operation to make that situation better. again these are not meant to be a permanent solution.

many of them are being driven bit members of the community. so we'll keep the commission and the public posted on that. the last part of the report if i can have a few more minutes to give a report. i'm going to go through these quickly and it makes sense to break them up. but i'll give an update on d g.o. >> fire chief, at my request was not clear, i was just wondering if you can provide the public an update on d g.o.s before we went on break. i think there were 26 that were sort of stagnant. and out of the 26 which have been moved. i think the sparks will cover

that eventually. but it's good to keep it on a radar and if any progress has been made. >> there are 29dd g.o.s and there is some movement including some significant ones. i think that was one of the ones that was mentioned. ream' made some good progress on that. we had planned to get that in the commission, but we asked for extension due to a policy commission and dpa was in support. and they had asked for us it eventually, we're seeing eye to eye that is in need of a revision. that revision was made in our revent concurrent meeting last week. we'll get that flushed out to the commission. there are, i can just rattle some of the d g.o.s at a very high level.

duties of personnel, that they're actually four d g.o.s that will be combined. because they dealt with the police sergeant and commanding officers. and so it makes sense to combine all those and do them at one time, the resident rather than do them piece meal. so there is some consistency and language and what not. that is in the works. >> that is 1.03, 04, 05, 06 and 07. >> okay. here's series incident review. so there is been a draft that has been distributed that we need to go back to the table and discuss the draft. we had it in our happensed and it's been given. and commissioner i think it's in your inbox as well. i think we need to go to the table and work on that one.

we do have to group going. we are moving on to concurrent meetings. we're exercise ing the d g.o. where dp a is now in the concurrent meeting. first time we've done that. very good discussions and i think, that is going to workout nicely for our policy collaboration. and if you want, i can go down on each one of them. and those are some of the most important ones that i mentioned. to bring to the commission to tweak this of the revisions and feedback.

>> at this time i'm going to open it up for questions. i do have just couple. chief if i can go first and anyone if they want to put their names on the chat. soy noticed that during break since august first to date, i've been receiving notifications every day about a shooting. and since august 1, there is been 20 shootings in the city. and i'm wondering, if there is any rhyme or reason? have you, has the department noticed anything? is there anything that you can provide us or the public as to why there has been so many shootings? >> there are several things. there are some shootings that we believe that may be connected. there is been some vie lebs in some of our border cities where we know what is connected in san francisco.

there was a triple homicide in oakland about a week ago that involved san francisco resident. and we believe that is, a real concern for our city. not all shootings are connected. some have been from disputes but some of them are, are concerns in terms of what may come down the line retaliation or shooting. that is not the majority of the shooting but that is some of them and those that involved, these type of retal tory circumstances are big issue. on top of that, i had to say there is been a lot of work done behind the scenes to prevent some of the shootings that could happen. that happened because there is been a lot of out reach to some of the people that are influencers and some of these incidents.

a lot of behind the scene work that is happening. talking to people to get assistance to the community to squash this violence. that has been assisted by putting down some potential violence in a number of incidents where it could have gone side ways and i think the officers and community members doing this, need to be raised up. and i know, they're unsung, some of them don't want to be named because it impacts the ability to do this work. and that work is happening. there is a lost behind the scenes to bring people in and prevent violence from happening and the next shooting from happening. we know that we have done that in some cases. some of this is connected and

we need to do some of the groundwork. maybe we can have them do another presentation like we did the year before on the work that they're doing on community and how you brought them into help alleviate some of the violence. >> thank you, we definitely would love to do that. and i want to mention one thing that we did over this weekend, the community event. and i have to thank many community organizers, gun down, baters up and this was a baseball tournament with many baseball teams, community baseball teams with some neighborhoods that traditionally in the past had not gotten along. a lot of the community, people recognizeder, there is a lot of names to rattle off, women and men in the community.

we played in the tournament, we lost by one run. i got to participate and doing that a few times. it was a really really good event. sxfl what this event was all about, was bringing our community together having our police engaged with a community in a different type of way. and rec and park was sprofld. and supervisor walton came and said some, that's what we want to do more of. that's real community policing, just being relationships and working with them in a different type of way. but the real goal was to gun down. it was a theme about this of this tournament. and there is so many people that made this happen from the community and we got invite today participate and we were out there with our baseball and softball team. officers that work patrol and it was a really really good he vept. thank you to the community

members and felicia jones, she was reached out to the department and me to get involved. really nice community engagement there. >> interesting, and here we thought you were a homerun hit her. >> i didn't hit a homerun but i did get two base hits. >> thank you for that. i'm going to turn it over to commissioner carter-o behrstone. >> thank you, vice president. just one question for me. you mentioned some of the progress on am i correct that--[audio breaking] >> we are applying 30.1, there is some emailing about training. we're applying it. one of the things that we

wanted do is the people that touch the work the most had a thorough understanding of significant changes there. and that is, on going process, with just got some we'll be getting additional people. we're exercising, the meet approximatesing now to dpa, the notices and bulletins and d g.o.s that they get a shot will get a dg a, we're exiting. >> so all of the time lines that you had some pretty strict time lines. i've looked at a while but procedures in asking for extensions from those time lines. just so i understand we're a lying all of those new rules to these that are in the process of being revised.

>> we're going to do our best. people for the work groups. those do apply, and we're going to do our best. so i know there is a process for extensioned when we don't need them and with that comes, here's what happened that causes the timeline we're going to do our best to read the timeline. >> great, thank you, chief. >> thank you, commissioner walker. >> thank you, chief. going to the issue of the baracades. i've also had spoke mentioned it to me. both at the plaza and the station. i appreciate the community

development in the solution. i've spoken with many of the combined art groups in the commission who are actually, working with the mayor's office of economic to try to get some funding of organizations for the arts to activate these areas. and i think it would be a good idea to get somebody from the police to be involved in those conversations. i think it's a really good idea, it's proven to be affective in other city. when you create different traffic it tends to help eliminate the stuff that we don't want happen there. so i can, give you some information about the people in the community who are doing that. and also if you need

commissioners on your baseball team, i have been known to play short stop, so. that was several years ago, so maybe i'll discuss now. >> there you g look at that. >> let me know. >> will do. >> let me know when practice is. >> don't hurt her chief. >> we won't. commissioner yee, are you okay? >> oh yeah, i'm okay. i'm just, i guess my screen kept on going off and on, for i guess communications i'm okay now. >> okay, if you have a problem,

let us know in the chat. my apologies for not catching that. okay any other questions for the chief? okay, sergeant can we do public comment please. for members of the public please press star-3 to make a comment. good evening, caller you have two minutes. >> speaker: francisco decosta. i got involved in the stabbing with because i knew the family and i want to bring to the attention of the police commission that the street vie levins intervention program does an excellent work. think spent hours and hours and hours and the chief knows them pretty well.

they do a good job. we're noticing more violence, more assaults, but that goes to a time where when we had the gang tax task force how many of those who live in the city now live outside the city and when somebody happens, it comes to visit us and we have to deal with it. so i've been monitoring this for 40 years. and as a police chief was saying without saying too much, but saying what you commissioners need to know is about connecting the dots. and you cannot connect the dots unless chronologically you know

what happened in the city 25 years ago. so we have some young people who need to be, given some help. and we are very fortunate that we have street intervention program. these can go to those leaders and talk to them. and i do that all the time. i have to slow down because of my age. good evening caller, you have two minutes. >> speaker: thanks again. regard barricades, i know there is some confusion here because there is multiple barricades in the mission being erected. i was referring to and the

other caller was referring to, the metal baracade which is along 17th street and valencia street was erected, over 2 years ago in response to racial criminal justice protest that happened near by the station. since then, no protest have happened but the baracades have stayed up. completely unrelated to any violence going on. it literally people walking on the sidewalk being gated in and the entire mission station has a barrier from the street that people have to look at, the community engagement banner that hangs on 17th street is behind a metal baracade. if anyone needs to understand what community engagement does not look like is a metal baracade between the street and person. so it's that baracade, they have no problem removing it,

she would like to take it over. it baffled me why it's still up. or pd to remove it, it would be great to see that done as soon as possible. this is completely unrelated which is a whole other issue. i would love for some common or action on valencia street that was erected over two years ago for unknown protests and have remained up ever since then. thank you so much. >> thank you, caller. and vice president, that is the end of public comment. >> thank you. i wanted to give you an opportunity to respond. >> thank you for clarifying that. we have directed those be removed. i'm getting some verification if it has been done, it's not when or where it will be done.

that was mentioned at the end of last month and we have directed that they be moved. i'll get verification and i'll take the public on that. >> great and also we can also have it in your report next week just to follow-up. >> definitely. >> thank you. >> next item. >> line item 5, dpa director's report. discussion will be limited whether any issues for future use. >> executive henderson, welcome, happy birthday. i see your boss did not give you the night off so welcome. >> yes this was my birthday wish to spend my day with you.

i cannot tell you how excited i am to be here with you. >> we're here to make wishes come true. >> i appreciate it. i mean only thing. >> should we sing happy birthday. >> thank you, thank you. >> commissioner walker wants to search you even more. >> exactly. >> i'm excited to be here. this is my vision of how i wanted to spend my 42 birthdayish. ish. i'm only more disappointed that i too was not asked to play on anyone's softball team. and you know, i've been getting ready for it all year and then, the day came and went and nobody asked me nothing. i just watched on the sidelines and i'm a ringer, i could have brought it home for everybody. [laughter] nrou that i'm 42 i

may be put out the pasture, my day has come and go. >> this is your prime. >> that's what i keep telling people but the phone is not ringing. anyway, all right it's been a while. i missed all. i've got lots to share, a lot of updates for you and i know everybody has been waiting on bated breath to hear all the details. i've got numbers. here are the birthday statistics. so so far this year, we've opened 465 cases and 2022. we have closed 501 cases. we have currently open and pending cases 244 cases.

we have sustained 47 cases so far this year. despite by comparison last year, we had sustained 35 cases. we mediated 65 cases so far this year. we had made mao*ed yated--we had 22 cases who's investigation have been taken longer than 9 months. again we have not had any case that's went past the deadline nor have we lost any of those cases because of those restrictions. of the 22 cases that we have, 18 are hold meaning that there are pending litigation either criminal or civil in the cases.

we're about to come out but with these numbers, deadlines, we were between 16 to 20% of the cases from the d o.c. c we lost jurisdiction because of the investigation took too long and i think that's a large part why we report those numbers. i'm reminding people how far we've come and that information will be given to you in the five-year review. i'm just going to close this thing. sorry. i don't know where that is coming from. >> looks like the lord is coming in here. i don't know. >> that's your birthday shine. >> yeah, something is really happening special, maybe the lord heard me say 42 and it's a

christmas miracle. >> we need to get you a better wish list paul. >> clearly, because getting to play on somebody's baseball team did not get me far. but the lord is with me so let me celebrate that. we have cases that are pending with the commission, we have 10 cases. and we have 90 case that's are pending with the chief. and i just want to explain that a little bit, it may look like there is been a big jump and it really isn't, a big jump. it really isn't a big jump. i want to explain it a little bit just so we're all on the same page and we have clarifications on what these numbers mean.

what we did, i'm constantly looking at our reporting and want to make it as transparent as possible. so this will all be summarized again in an annual report but i want to explain it again in case people want to know how we went from having 1 case to 90 and it's understanding what the process is. so we changed our reporting to reflect more clearly. so, so in order to get a more comprehensive view of case that's volve less than 10 days for discipline, this is what happens. rather than simply reporting the weekly number of sustained cases, that are set for initial review for is for the chief which is what we typically convey, we're reporting on all of the sustained case that's are pending at the chief's level. what that means is, what it

means to be at the chief level as you know, once dpa sends the department of sustained case, it goes through various levels of review. including an initial review of internal affairs and meet and confer process between dpa and the chief. so all along the pipeline are the cases not just the numbers that i used to report. if there is a disagreement about dp a's allegation or if there is a disagreement about the level of discipline that is recommended, they can request chief's hearing can be requested if the officer disagrees with the chief's notice and then there are has to be a period of appeal as well. so now we report on any case that has at all of those stages of the process as described above not just the number that has been sent over to the

chief, enhance the numerical change. so it's really understanding the process. it's already explained in the annual report on what that process is. we're just sinking up the numbers and the volume to match what the process is. but i want today explain it just so people knew what happened and it was not like the number jumped significantly from the last time we had police commission which is when i reported one and in and out number is 90. that's how many cases are in the pipeline to be completed at the various stages that i just described. so thank you for indulging me. at the end of the day, having the explanation gives more clarity to the process for the public. so that people better under the discipline process and the accountability measures coming from cases sustained from the dpa. so, in terms of our weekly trend, over the past five weeks

since we last met, dpa received just over 60 cases, 61 cases and the top allegation that came into the office the highest were for allegations that a officer failed to take a required action. le second most highest allegation, came from allegations that officer behaved badly are spoken manners that were unbecoming an officer. the full break down is on the website and has already been posted. the top precinct that's dpa

received were from southern station and the tenderloin. failure to conduct a thorough search based from request from the public. there were ten complaints that came out of the tenderloin. and their top complaints were for 1, accessive response team for call for service and secondarily failures for the department to arrest a suspect. these are allegations that are coming in. as part of the weekly trend i tried to explain the kinds of things and locations of allegations that are coming into the department and that's what that is. if anybody is interested in the full list of the allegations, they can go to the website to

look at them but i also focus on the top two so i'm not here all night explaining these allegations. we're trying to wrap up the testing phase of this audit. known as field work very audits. we expect to issue this audit before the end of the calendar time. we're in the middle off and police one guideline, activity. so that's found in video 8.10. and ddo18.0 required that they

perform this audit annually and issue a report that's on its way. in terms of ought reach for august, dp a started giving mediation program overview at the police department in district stations. and the goal was to provide this presentation never station. we're almost done so far we've presented, the presentation at part tenderloin and central station. more having done but i continue to give you the updates. the basic idea is to introduce officers to the mediation program so they understand how it works and answer questions for them. in addition to that externally, we participated in the number of community events, including the month magic giveaway with the san francisco public defender's office as well as presentation at various community police district stations.

we do have a case in closed session this evening. and the senior investigator who is on the call with us hely. we had our cco a meeting overall the oversight agencies in the state of california just as a reminder those are for, it's a collaborative organization where we share resources and best practices. so emerging don't have to reinvent the wheel. if anyone has any questions with dp a or contact with us

either for allegation or complaint. you can find us at sf gov.org. you can also at any time contact the agency directly. and that concludes my presentation for the evening. unless anyone has any questions. that was a lot. >> thank you, director henderson. so i have a question about the 90, that seems like a lot of cases. >> yes. >> so as of 90 how many are past. mark or and are there any violations because of this, that seems like a lot. >> i don't think so, once our part is packaged and done, it ends our 33-34 deadline. sarah can you tell us the answer? she is smarter than me and knows.

>> hey, everybody. >> i don't know the answer to how many of them are past the 9-month park. we can get that information for you. i'm not sure if we own that data or sfpd does. so there is one ded line per case. that's also a number that we can provide for the commission next week. >> yeah, i think we should talk about this. that number seems like a lot so i would like to give the chief opportunity to address the 90, why the number is so high or if it's a concern and what we can do. >> if i may say one additional thing. we kind of highlighted this with the department of maybe six weeks ago. and we have been working with

with them to prioritize some of the cases to get them processes faster and that has been happening. so we're working on that and i think we're all jointly aware that it's a priority. >> great. >> i think one of the solution is once we have a break down. all i can do is track the numbers until it goes into the pipeline which is what i'm doing. just my opinion is we cannot monitor or track what we're not talking about or showing. that's why i want to show the work so we have the volume, and this, obviously, shift the balls back to the department to be more transparent or brought more broadly transparent about what they're pipeline is and what the context of the 33-34 deadline or where the work efficiencies are.

so it includes smft statistics. we have in terms of the same 34-33 deadlines our chief of staff indicated four case that's have shared jurisdiction, meaning that we have the case or the department has a case. there is a singular deadline for 3304. i can only report on the dpa side of it. and our compliance. >> chief can you work with dp a and provide us a break down of 90 cases where we're coming up against the deadline. i know that the department a

few years past had to dismiss a case and the department had put in markers to ensure that that did not happen again. so i want to make sure that those markers are working and that we don't have any issues. so next week, if you can work with the dpa and provide the commission and the public more information to the status of the 90 cases. >> yes, commissioner. and let me make sure i get this right. what you're asking for is where are these 90 and 3304. >> yeah, of the 90 cases how many are past the 90 day mark. and how many are in the past the month mark. because that's a, a concrete

date once that deadline passes, there is no going back. and it would be helpful for us to understand why there is 90. and 90 cases is a lot. in terms of where these this 90 cases are in that time frame. >> we'll take care of it and report back. >> i appreciate it. >> commissioner benedicto. >> just quick, dpa had released on the website, have those been distributed where there are complaints access or user friendly literature on the

complaint process? i know that was happening, but i don't want to tell you that is happening without confirming. we made plans for that to happen. i believe it happened but i don't want to say it until, i have to get back to you. >> okay, that's fine, thank you. >> i know the work was done, i just don't know if that's where it's connected and they made it into the station. i said from the beginning, that this is a mandate that should not have been in the court of dpa to have been doing. when i first came over and took it over, it was not happening. and if i didn't go to and hand deliver to the station,r then they were not there. that, that seems like an unfair burden for the department when the, i mean it seems like a unfair burden on dpa when they

can be mailed easily to the station for them to put up what is on their own station rather than requiring my staff to look and then refill what those, you know, the bins of the information. >> i think i still think it's ridiculous. >> thank you, we have stream lined the process, chief flaherty and romero our out reach team. that is hatching we're just mailing them whatever they need at their request. we're going to have a monthly follow-up. i think commissioner benedicto you were speaking to you are updated faqs and that i'm going

to double check with steve and i'm going to report back in the next commission. i'm not sure if we were only including when somebody made a complaint. but if we need to have those at the station, it's easy to mail those and have those available with our complaint forms. >> thank you. and i'm glad that you're addressing, your concerns about the process. >> me too. that was ridiculous, so i'm glad that got fixed. >> look at me being efficient. >> consider that director's gift to you. >> i know how much he makes, i saw it in the paper, he deserves a better paper. and also because you brought them up, the faqs are also on our website and somebody contacts the office o, it's part of a standard material that they automatically get.

we're really making sure that if those efficiencies are shared and people get those answered, thank you, thank you, director. >> okay, seeing no other names in the chat, i'm going to move on to public comment. >> members of the public that would like to make public comment raggeder the dp a director's report, please press star-3 now. you have two minutes. >> speaker: so commissioners, i've been listening very carefully. to how the explanations are given when any officer and i'm just referring to sfpd officer that, somehow you know, because of some hidden issues makes a mistake.

and try to, try to do the info. in this case to do an adjudication. that is totally wrong. i think it comes under 33.4 that you're discussing. commissioners, our officers stretched but when an officer is injured and suffering from pain you all know too much about the medical field. when a officer is suffering tremendous pain, many things happen. and we don't have resources to

help the officer. i've been involved in the past in helping some of the officers. listening to them and trying to guide them in the right direction. commissioners one of the things that we must have because of what is going on, is empathy. >> thank you, caller. >> commissioner reports will be limited to a brief discussion. commission discussion to have any futures raised. commission president's report and commission announcement and and hed and items identified for commission meeting.

action. i'm going to start with the first update, we have been busy during the first month off and i'm going to divert to give you an update on that. i've been working with the department on 5.01 there were a few revision that's were requested by the training division because there were issues with implementing the d g.o. as it stood. with the help of scott. as well as others, to fix some sft issues that 501 was fixing for officers. so we were able to accomplish that and that will be on next week for review and adoption by the commission.

additionally next week, will be presenting on their biased audit. so we have that to look forward to. so those are the updates that i had. i'm going to turn it o over to my fellow commissioners. i'll start with commissioner carter oberstone. you're muted. >> you don't look muted but there is no sound. >> i had the problem before i turned 42, there is a button at the bottom and then we can hear you. >> i'm going to turnover to

commissioner benedicto. >> okay, a couple of updates, like vice president said, we spent a lot of month the month of august, doing really multi fauceted out reach and meetings with a couple of important groups including. we've done separate meetings with district captains, and captains and lieutenants with patrol officers and we'll be in a meeting soon with the traffic company as well. and the third most important group of the community with the generous assistance of dr.

davis and human right's commission. we had several public out reach, national night out, and just yesterday at the main library so these are community session that's are meant to have conversation sxz make sure that this process is proceeding. we really since this general order was introduced in may, it's really been the most transparent and considered vision process that i've seen since 2015 when i started to work on the original revisions and more eager to continue to move forward.

i'm optimistic that when these meetings wrap up, we'll be able to present a strong order to consider for adoption. that's it. a couple of, two other things. this is the way it's happening, we have received a lot of emails and feedback. i want to thank members of the public for sending that. i know we have not had a chance to remrie not all of us will be able to apply. i promise all of that feedback is being addressed. met with steve flaherty at the

commission, so we had a hupful update with the outside its that will be coming before the commission. that way the commission will have a good on how he pays out in process and if there are any concerns, they can be, sent to me. and that's all for me. >> he received mills, still trying to shift through all of the emails that we received. >> still can't hear you. >> it's at the bottom of the screen it says mute. >> i think your light broke

everything. >> that was a message from the heavens. listen what i have to say, i'm pretty sure that's what it meant. >> i'm going to turn it over to the other commissioners and then we'll come back to you. commissioner walker. i'm over 42. i was really glad that i attended the listening session last night on this and i appreciate the work that has gone on. i've been reading all of the communications from the public and from other, from officers. i think everybody is really, paying attention to this.

it was helpful to sit down and have a conversation. some of what is not undering is being presented and proposed. it was really good to talk about it. it's a complicated dg0, there is a equal number of people who are concerned about the traffic safety and pedestrian safety. we don't know the affect that is going to happen as the affect of this. i think keeping track of all the data is going to be vital. i really appreciate everybody's work on all of this. there is clearly a lot of interest and i'm excited to be part of it.

i was also allowed to do a training, it was really helpful and understanding the process that is going on here. i think that, commissioner benedicto and i are scheduled for a couple of other classes to observe and see how the trainings are going. i'm really excited. i've been talking with community about one of the supervisors proposing some of the coordinator efforts around different departments, around getting folks to and for people who are trying to recover from

addiction and working on some of those issues with other agencies who are responding. one of the things that happened as i was doing a ride along is a long wait time for some of the other service providers. i know that's a really big issue. trying to help folks who are out in the street. i'm excited to be working on that. that's about it. >> great sounds interesting. >> commissioner byrne. >> thank you, vice president elias. >> just three quick things.

i want to do another evening ride along. when the sun goes down things do change down there. a lot of improvement during the jay. it was wonderful to see, suspects taken into custody. we can only comment on section police work. but again the issues at night and particularly th street. as regards to other issues, i know commissioner yee and i are meeting on friday to discuss

the awards for officers involved faster, at this time, and finally, this sunday to do the annual memorial service for the fallen first responder both fire department and san francisco sheriff's office. i believe it's important issue. >> thank you. >> thank you, commissioner yee. >> thank you, madam chair.

i just want to first off thank chief scott for attending our town hall meeting in china town. this brought out some issues. one of the issues i see is that many of the mono lingo audience at reporting crimes and how do they do it online? question have good dialogue and maybe reach out to the community engagement division.

asian seniors out there trying to get it resolved as soon as possible. great work. i also want to thank the working group that is working on 9.01. i know there is a lot of dialogue going in between our community and coming out and hopefully, we can come to a middle ground. and get it resolved as soon as possible. maybe look at, maybe valley town hall meeting, maybe work at the chief and commissioners. also want to thank, kevin benedicto attending a haufl meeting on that day. i guess there is a lot of work to be done here. and going to be a busy september, thank you. >> thank you for the

suggestion, we've been trying to get these working groups. unfortunately, perhaps was unable to accommodate us which is why we had to have it at the station. hopefully we'll have it in different locations. were you able to fix it? >> are you able to hear me now? >> yes, he's back! >> wow, okay. that peanut know he did the trick. >> it was not director's henderson's advise? >> as much as i would love to give director henderson credit, i cannot do here. hopefully he's better at baseball than tech support. my update is largely moot now, so i'll be very quick. i think commissioner benedicto covered everything that needs to cover in terms of all the

great work that has been going on with d g.o. 9.1 during the month of august and carrying into this month. i'll just reiterate one thing that commissioner benedicto said which is at the beginning of the process, we made a pledge that this would be the most, that we would at least endeavor to make it the most transparent revision process that the commission had ever undertaken. at this point, we are making good on that promise with the rough draft and in in perfect draft. but a concrete draft to respond to at the earliest possible moment. and soliciting feedback to working groups that are open to the public and to the really incredible community out reach

that hr sees undertaking. i look forward to continuing. >> great thank you very much. okay. sergeant do we have public comment? >> members of the public that would like to make public comment on item 6 commissioners report, please press star-3 now. there is no public comment. >> thank you, next item please. >> line item , propoeds implement of police article 25 private protection and security services. as required by board of supervisors ordinance 13-22 discussion. >> okay, who is presenting on this. >> i'll be presenting president elias.

>> thank you, welcome. >> thank you. >> thank you for moving forward. police chief and members of the public, my name is viana i'm director of public affairs for the san francisco police department. my role specifically is to oversee any legislative matters in policies for the department. and i also work very closely on and department initiative. today i'm going to be copresenting with one of our lieutenants that oversees the unit along with many other duties fm he's in charge of overseeing our permitting process. and oversees the staff that facilitated this important role. we'll be presenting to you around police code 25. and we have a presentation

today to actually share, thank you so much.

>> does it really make sense for the department to take on some responsibilities. next slide please. so we're at the point where we've finished one of the

expectations of this ordinance which is our actual gap analysis on behalf of the department. and what we found just to offer context first, we looked at the workload of what it takes to move article 25. and what we found is there are nearly 10,000 active guard currently issued in the city of san francisco. and these cards are issued to the security companies and security guards by the department of consumer affairs. provides that they issue background cards. since article 25 mandates that each of the employees of different firms can get screened and evaluated for identification, it really also gave us effectively looking to

what was really important permit to undertake a big task and a big. what we ended up moving forward was looking at specific recommendations within our gap analysis that would provide us a deeper understanding of what it would take to have our permits. to be able to the capacity to not duplicate. and the lieutenant can probably speak i little bit more to this. before i turn it over, we realized that not only do we need staff but around legislative amendments that really deal with updating our april 25 when it came to penalties when it comes to really looking at any of the departments.

to speak a little bit more about what was found, lieutenant? thank you, dia na. to introduce myself, i'm steve joan us i'm a lieutenant i'm assigned in the field operations bureau. i'm currently the officer in charge of abckly say on units to oversee the attending program also known as ples and i'm also the deal operation point coordinator. to give you an oversight of our unit we handle about 100 applications and and transfers.

and university consist of one part-time lieutenant which is me, one acting sergeant one officer and three non sworn professional staff. for some background, as early as 2020, had a full-time lieutenant, full siem sergeant, 3 full-time officers and the same three professional staff. this is for the same level of permit and licenses that we currently process. as diana mentioned, the implementation of article 25, result in 8,000 applications to register in a combination of employees and individual security guards. based on current processes, just received an additional review while your applications can take 4 to 8,000 hours.

they're difficult to project. we'll be getting into a more specific proposal in a moment. but we believe that this would be an affective means and it really represents our best case scenario. next slao*id please. so our proposed implementation would implement article 25 in a manner that regulation to a whole public safety as well as provide an avenue for visitors to express their complaints.

the first would be the registration and firms and businesses would be required to register with s m.p. d while they obtain their license. and they'll be given two years to come into compliance. information on registering with sfpd the complaint process associated investigations and appeals with the appropriate particles. this would also cover the next aspect which would be renewals. security firms and individuals would be required to renew their information and recommending tracing with them every two years in line with state requiremented.

and the fourth would be complaints. we would receive complaints and officer would review the complaint and determined the appropriate action for referral. depending on the nature of the complaint, it would be referred to an investigative bureau within the sfpd for a criminal investigation. it could be referred to partner agency within the san francisco, family of agencies for biased or discrimination allegations. or if it's a procedure al complaints for violations of bsis rules which the bureau secure investigative services in the department of consumer affairs, it would be referred to them. we would receive a and a

recommendation within our partner agency within san francisco. and we can administrative violation receive a recommendation of suspension or ref occasion from the bureau security and investigative services. we would then have to have an appeals process if it's local violation, we would recommend it reside with the board of appeals. if it's administrative violation that would reside with the department of consumer affairs. we would notify the employee and then the decision would be made whether the city is--.

and i'll hand it back, thank you. >> thank you, lieutenant. so just as reminder in terms of next step is for to us give you the analysis the proposal that is going to be submitted by the board of supervisors by this friday. so our hope is that we receive your feedback as far as any feedback and that the public provide any feedback for us to consider. we will then move forward with the board of supervisors shortly after september 11th and then we work suppose to be the controllers office to get further into the gap analysis. as i mentioned earlier, is there a better suited partner to be able to deal with complaints that are coming from security companies.

our hope is to be able to implement a more suitable oversight for security services in san francisco. but also really to continue working with the state on some of the expectations that they have with security services. i want to focus despite the fact that we're going through this analysis there is a small piece that continues to work very closely around permitting with the limited capacity. and that concludes our presentation, hopefully we stayed within the ten minutes. >> thank you and welcome lieutenant jones. thank you for the presentation. i think you do far more than what you told us. we would be here all night if

we had ally all you do. thank you for your presentation as well. i'm going to turn it over to commissioner benedicto. >> yes. thank you both for that decision. i have some questions about registration process. how would it work for the, you said again, the 10,000 already registered guards. would they be given a period in which to comply? or how does that work for existing entered tees? >> i can add what the expectations are. >> yeah, so the plan that we're proposing is existing businesses would have that same two-year window to come into compliance that a new applicant would have. and that they would be referred to us to renew to begin the registration process when they are renewing their business license.

there is a state role, purpose again for the audit, gap analysis will be for them to investigate where they overlap. is it required under the ordinance? and will there be sort of, i didn't see that on the list of the registration that they are implementing anti biases training. >> still a discussion to be had. i think certainty from the department perspective.

we're looking towards maybe. even the department of human resources who offer by as es. so we are necessarily taking on that role specifically as a department. we have our own internal wave training, and we definitely have our at hand with personnel. so we're going to be turning to possibly do that. lieutenant did you want to add anything else? >> no i didn't you covered that. the one thing, on recommending trait. that would be an item to register.

how many this can be done. but is there a feature where either, the other agencies can audit and check in on to make sure that requirements are continue to be compatible with. we're still investigating that piece. i will say as you heard the lieutenant, the capacity that the department has is very minimum to almost none. if we go back to the actual complaints, it's to get to this, to do more of a thorough investigation when it's needed. but also to have somebody on going to be able to provide that capacity. we don't do that today.

it's nearly impossible to look at all the security in san francisco. so it's something that we can look to in the future and we're curious about possibly looking at the controllers recommendation office. >> thank you. seeing >> seeing no further names in the chat, sergeant. >> members that would like to make public comment, please press star-3 now. >> good evening, you have two minutes. >> speaker: sergeant youngblood, this is david, i meant to make a comment on commissioners report, i could not find button. did i miss my understand. >> i'm afraid you missed your opportunity. >> speaker: okay, thank you. >> good evening, caller you have two minutes. >> speaker: so i've been

listening to this to this article 25. and when you go downtown, you see this guy wearing a green jacket, hundreds of them. and i was around 5th and market in the alley way and there was fire exchange, gun fire exchange between some drug addicts, some drug dealers and security people, but in the middle of this what they call alchamy, they go to the board of supervisors and they call practitioners. if you open your dictionary and what is the arc molg of being a

practitioner it's more like a nurse. but really, jail birds who are serving some sort of law to provide security on our streets. and i would think that this organization should be vetted by san francisco police department. until about 1200 and in another six months it will be 800. the force should be 2000. who is adding all of these article 25.

>> thank you, caller. no further comments. >> next item please. >> item 8 presentation of data report january through march 2022, discussion. >> great, who is presenting on this? >> good evening, commissioners. vice president, chief scott, i'm catherine mcwire i'm director of strategic bureau. and i'll be presenting the first quarter activity and data report. i want to thank the team putting this together.

put in a lot of work to get that 175 page report plus the victim report. as you can see, we continue to see the disparity that we have seen historically, although the trend is headed in the right direction. as you can see, stocks are down by 57 percent in quarter 1, 2022 as compared to the same quarter the prior year. and then we also see that that decline is consistent, there is decline that is happening

across all demographics. you can go to the late slide. with the decline being greater for the african-american community greater than any of the other races or ethnicity. would bering to bring that down. something that the officer or must conduct. and we have those searches here from those group by discretionary and other

searches. that's line in orange at the bottom there. meaning an arrest is going to happen and officers must search the subject in order to you know, sorry inventory their personal affects. so as you can see the searches have come down since 13. so yield, this breaks down by

the 3 big buckets that charle on the right breaks down what the percentage of time that officers find contraband. and at the time, we are griffin the california river board reported out that this is some information and we wanted to share that information of why yield rates. and the information among researchers, if the yield rate is a bit higher, the assumption is that officers are using more objective facts or observations rather than potential influences from biases. and as those those yield rates,

use more consistently. again similarly to our capita or surge of african americans is much higher on a per-capita basis than any of the other populations. and hopefully this objective, we want to dig into this a little bit more. next slide please. race and ethnicity, blue line represents all youth force by quarter and then all the break down is by demographic there.

and then use of force per-capita. and again, the afrmg rate of decrease is higher for americans than for other demographic, next slide please. this is interesting to me because the percentage of total race of race and ethnicity, really moves around a lot. so there is nothing really to conclude from that, unfortunately, but it's aoufrl it's not like any of our other statistics that we show.

everything moves in the same direction. and so this is a little bit different for us, next slide please. and then again arrest per-capita. not the declines that we've seen in stops and searches and uses of force. so for stops, we stop african americans at a rate 5 times larger than whites. we use force of african americans at a higher rate.

next slide please. and then a reminder on current highlights of works that we're undertaking. and this is really the more current thing, with many of the trainings and other things that we talked about. under way, those are on going in the department from biases things to, to cncr to other numbers of other trainings that help address some of these disparities. but with that some of the progress that is being made, i know you're aware of these, from the d g.o. revision work

including 9.01 and 5.01 which incorporated recommendation both the version actually incorporated from equity surrounding removing the complaint of pain threshold. and really to track more data to understand why. and then reinforcing the training i think we're nearly to a point of talking rolling those out. and then finally, violence expansion and i believe that the chief has spoken about that

and you all have questioned that item for that work. and with that, i will take any questions. >> thank you, before a few questions that i had for you, i'm going to start with the searches the 4 percent and searches among white. why is there an increase in the two categories? whether the information or connection of crime that were occurring in a specific area.

we would have to dig into those specific data points. so we can do that. we have stressed what the solutions are. we want to know why they are what they are. and we have worked hard to change the conversation to why are these numbers the way they are and what are we doing about them. so i don't understand why we don't have answers to increases and searches among ethnic categories. especially when you look at the yield rate.

i'm still not understanding why and why that is. i would like for to you tell us what the problem. wup thing we'll throw in here as far as this soft from the, as far as the agents there is a two percent increase in searches, also 1 percent increase in stops. and that number is not significant. and they're on every report.

we had something to do with it. as far as i've seen when i look, i have not seep any discernable other than more paper stop. and that may have equated to more searches. it's a question. >> does this not mean, even if they're stopped, it does not mean you get to search them. >> it doesn't. i'm not referring that that automatically means a search. but if there is a coronation if you have a searches, if you see one increase, it's not out of the ordinary to see one increase. that's very antidotal commissioner but, the answer is we have not seen discernable to say it's because of this one thing. sometimes there is just not anything discernable.

it results in a four percent increase. which results in a 3% increase in searches. >> yeah, these are not exact sciences. the point that i'm trying to make sheer, if there is a discernable trend, that's something that we can talk about. we're not seeing any discernable trends. >> i think we should have more analysis on why these things

are happening. we have the 16 page executive summary which shows us what the numbers are. we need to know why, why these numbers are what they are. and searches which seem to have increased excuse me they decrease last quarter but still 602 other searches it would be helpful how many would be attributed to officer. how many were attribute today officer safety. how many were attributed to suspected weapon?

and so on and so forth because when you look at the other searches which incompasses weapons, contraband, and evidence of a crime and then we see yield rate that don't coincide, but actually i think it would be helpful to see the break down and why, why these other searches are happening of individuals in our community. >> and then the other thing that you indicated was that, you're trying to bring the numbers down with respect to i'm curious to see what other

mechanisms the department has deployed or engaged in other than 9.01 which was something that was anyoneder by commissioner carter-oberstone. what other thins do they have to address that issue. so i think the hard work that you were part of with respect to the buy policing policy was an element of. on the dashboard that we're

doing to understand where we're experiencing disparities either on unit level on a shift level on all the possible slices and dices that you can imagine and then trying to address them. and then also understanding how much of our command direction is influencing those disparities. these data ttsz not crime da where we've been looking at that for decades. it's new to us and the two years that we've had to digest, this is gotten so far and more sophisticated look and every quarter getting better.

and one thing that i'm always curious what individuals biases have. and what influence does command direction have. and other than command for service and direction, which most of the time pushes community input. now all of those is what we need to look at and what we need to address. the other thing is while we're understanding that, work and understanding those data digging into the next layer of them really having continuing the work of development and change with that lens in mind of do we need to add friction?

add friction to slow our members down a little bit in order to think. and some are great way to add that friction. and those objective standards. helps slow the situation down and helps officers ensure that they're using observe activity as opposed to potential influences. >> we're not slowing it down, because the numbers are not getting that much better. you know, i'm sure you can sense my frustration. i've been pounding on this since 2020. we passed the bioin 2020.

it was merely putting data on available to the public so that we can see what the data is. so there was no analysis behind that and that was in 2021 and now we're here in 2022 and i'm still not hearing what is going to fix it. when i look at page 8. the use of force of african americans is still so high, why? why? everyone one of those cases, the individual officers have been trained. and we have issued refreshing on training.

when we deal with drug use and. the officers were given specific search and seizure training as a reminder of some of hiccups that we've had with some of discipline cases. and a reminder of what current case law is as far as our procedure and things of that nature. and making sure that we don't make some of the mistakes that we've seen in some of the case that's have come across fm those are very specific things that were called out in the doj assessment.

to allow. so those are very specific things commissioner. and again these are things that happen overtime. and we expect to see a difference but there are going to be searches by officers. i don't know if the one of the things that they're talk to go our academic partners is people from stanford, what is the right number? it's situational based on woo is going on in our city. i want to see decreases and disparity but there is no right number. if there is one, so you point that out to me. everybody that i talked to from an academic perspective, that does not exist. we want to make sure that we do things lawfully and we follow the law and follow case law, but there is no magical number. that's what we'll continue to work on. >> well there may be no magical

numbers but what i'm looking at the numbers of being how african americans are searched against them, especially when they compose of less than 5% of population here in the city, i mean, i don't think we need a magical number. we need to address the reality that we're facing here. >> i totally agree with you and i think it will be helpful that you heard some of the people who do this for a living has their eyes in terms of this issue. there is no disagreement about reducing disparity. at all. but we are trying to follow some of the things that we have been tasked to do in terms of actually work withing people an deck i am that know this works and rely on some of the expertise to get to a better place. we'll continue to do that and continue to do the work. some of, dis cernable things,

it's not that easy. >> that's what we need to get to. we know what the numbers are. you're presenting a power point on report that we, we need more substance. we need to know again, why is this happening. what are wre doing to fix this? that's what we've asked to you focus the presentation on those two issues. and yet we're still being given numbers that we already know. i'm going to turn it over to my fellow commissioners. is it commissioner, i'm sorry commissioner benedicto? are you first? >> you said that despite disparity staying high there is no move in the right direction. and i wanted to ask what specifically made you come to that conclusion?

>> i think the slides that show the per-capita rate give you a sense of an actual decrease. it's not what we want to see. we want it to be consistent across the all demographic. that's ideal in a perfect environment. but when you see that line, it shows the african-american rate per 1,000 individuals, or 1,000 residents that shows african-american rate coming down faster than any of the other race. and of course when you start from a much higher number it's going to come down faster.

that is what is informing to spak. >> thank you for that clarification. i'll say that i don't share your optimism. the number is how much rate, the rate of stops between races.

not better or worse. i also wanted to ofk, is this new now, dividing stops into this new categories administrative discretionary. i just wanted to confirm, so these weighings they map on to the doj regulation that have i think 13 categories?

whether an officer shakes out, how does that shake out. >> i don't have my expert here. i'll have to get back to you with that answer. similar to ucr but i don't, i wouldn't want to suggest what that is or that that is the answer. i'm figuring out what your presentation. it's very hard to know one way or the other what the chart means.

chief there is been a lot of coverage. things that i think everyone agrees we should be making stops for like wreckless driving and things of that nature. for the dangerous violations.

>> well i can tell you anecdotely what is happening. we had a hearing here about the state of morale. that impacts the areas. there is been a market decrease. some of it is, if the, officer thats are assigned primarily to get traffic duties.

i believe we have a more in depth inquiry to the commission on this. and it's something definitely that we will have more of a bereaning down but those are some of the things that are present and prevalent. also, ttsz really focusing on those activity that we know.

so really it's making most of the resources and i know those deputy chiefs are definitely digging into it. they put some plans actually in place. have more focus on this prior to that arco coming out but they have resulted in an increase and some of the focus on those types of violations where we'll report when we do our commission report. there has been an increase prior to that article. that's helpful two. thank you. the last thing i want to raise is just pickup on one thing. that you and vice president were talking about. you said there is not a magic number when it comes to

disparities. and i agree with that. the goal should be that nobody should be pulled stopped rather on account of their race. maybe off stream from policing if those are based on legitimate fangtors. that's fine. i don't think anybody is saying that we need to reduce to zero and know there is a magic number. i guess i'll ask you, one thing that is not on this presentation, is the incidents at which we find drugs any stops. do you collect that data force. you know from at least, i have not looked for the two quarters that was presented and

historically, at least for the low level stops, we are really not finding guns or drugs at any increasable rate. for all traffic stops, i think we found guns in 0.3 percent of those stops. so i guess i'll ask you chief, given that the race disparities is so high for the traffic stops and we're not finding evidence of serious contraband, you know, why why are we making it? isn't that a good area to where we can reduce race disparities? it looks like they're not finding.

not all stops result in searches, and not all searches result in narcotics and we would agree on that. these, violations are still violations of law. you know, and we can you know, whatever the policy of it being in terms of what we are going to emphasize or focus on our van, you know, that will be what it ends up being. but officers, are not currently prohibited for foesinger law whether it's a broken taillight or any of that stuff. they don't all result in searches. but these are still violations of a lot. i think the policy once we have a policy, will provide some clear direction on what is

allowed and what is not allowed. and part of, i think we all are hoping for is that this policy will help us get to a better place in terms of disparity. i totally agree with you on the first thing you said in terms that no stops should be based on the basis of race. is race a factor in identifying perpetrators of crime? yes, when that identification has been put out to officers and officers if they're investigating crime, it should not be a based on rate solely and i agree with that. why are they making a stop? they are still tasked with enforcing the law. and if we ban that, then that's going to be different scenario. but as of now, those have not been banned and officers do make them and have made them. and i don't think that's wrong. and perhaps that is adding to this issue that we're talking

about. but that's why we're having this discussion. >> great, thanks chief. would i clarify yes it's a violation of the law but the whole question is you cannot enforce 100% of the laws 100% of the time. we have to decide what is the best resource. my question is more directed to that, that's everything for me, thank you. >> thank you, commissioner byrne. >> thank you vice president. hitting on the theme that commissioner carter was, talked about the traffic violations. and anecdote evidence of not being enforced one of the callers talked about. referring to slide 9, total arrest by quarter and i was looking at this where the meet, obviously you can tract the

decline with the covid. so you see the short sharp decline by quarter 2 in 2020. and in, at the end of quarter 2, 2021cious that's more or less when city of county of san francisco,--so one would expect. there would have been more increased, you know, with people being out more and increased nom i can activity. the normal conclusion would be that there would be more arrest.

2021. most of most of the city and

koupt' of san francisco economic activity, you know, concerts, lawyers, all of that had started up again. people were in bars, people were in restaurants, all the more or less the normal activity in one had before covid. and yet. >> sorry, i'm trying to get my video back on. it got cut off. >> sorry. i heard the question. so i think the question was what is the reason -- ~>> it looks like, it looks like with increased economic activity.

and to be frank, that's disturbing because, you the normal expectation would be there would be more arrest. when we're below in 2020, and i will come back do this commission with the per cap da break down of that number,

because, we had more officers working in 2020 than you do now. when you break down per officer, what those arrests amount to, if the line is flat, the line tells me that you're going to have more arrest per officers because we have about 200 less officers than we had in 2020. >> but if you look at the arrest in 2019, you're talking about, something roughly 5500. and when you look at first quarter of this year, you're looking at a number under 3000.

and 20 and 2022 you lost all of these officers. you didn't lose that number from 2019, and if you get the number of arrest per officers, that may be a better endisha, but it's still to go from like 5500 to under 2000. it's not a 50% decline but it's over 50%. thosed are thipgz that are happening in terms of recovery of the city. there are less people in the city that's a pretty known fact. here's aolt thing that is not as well-known. we still have issues with capacity in the jail.

i just spoke to a number of officers today who are in the leadership development class. one of the complaints that was very very loued and vocal, was the fact that when sfrpz make arrest because of issues with covid and jail capacity, they cannot get them booked. this is a real issue for us. >> i'm aware of that. they were holding people longer than they were suppose to because the serve would not book them n.i saw that, i'm aware that the population in san francisco has gone down. but it has not gone down by 40%. you're not taking people not as many as arguably you should, and less officer but the

disparity in those numbers is how would you say? it's, it leaves one to do that at the evidence. and sthz antidotal evidence but it's a disturbing number. i don't expect it to go to 2019. but i don't expect the number to stay the same as if we're in lock down during covid. >> yeah, i'm not saying, commissioner just to be clear, i'm not saying that these numbers correlate to the number of arrests.

>> my reaction to seeing the numbers that's all. thank you, commissioner yee. sf. you're on mute commissioner yee. >> now, i have the finger well. thank you very much. madam vice president. i had an issue regarding with vice president said on slide 5 and that's the asian discretionary search that is, that is i guess a dropper for me in comparing in looking at the black african-american community as well.

and when you look at other, ethnicities on there, it's, it's something that we need to explanation to. and i would like to see if the executive director can come back to us later on in a meeting, to explain that. my question on the asian community, asians is that could it be a language issue whether it's, can i search and they don't understand the policy that is being authorized and they say. i guess you're at a place and can do what you want. so maybe we're going to take a look at the reports and see can we gelt it on the next go

around? >> sorry commissioner, just want to make sure that i'm clear on the question. it sounds like you have two questions, one is digging into searches and especially consensus searches and making sure that there is some look at whether or not language would play a factor. and then the first question, i'm not sure i caught which data point you were reviewing. >> this would be slide number 5, ethnicity, if you look underneath the asians they're at 43%, african-american 50%, and hispanic and latino at 29% and whites at 30. i just want to find out the reason for the disparity on there? >> i will tell you, we'll look at it for sure. i'll tell you that number is

the search is for des investigation airy searches with 79 in total for all searches. the yield rate would be volatile when you break it down between each demographic. with 79, i thought i remembered seeing.

absolutely. >> thank you, very much, that's all i have there vice president cindy eliass. >> thank you commissioner yee. commissioner walker. >> thank you. yeah i'm looking at this stops and the conversation about like if you look at number 2. just stops by procedure rates. i agree with commissioner byrne that it does look like it went down concurrent with the covid shut down and stayed down. it would be helpful to know

especially in light of the issue brought up by lessening number of traffic tickets, is how many of these were violations? like traffic moving violations? how many didn't end up with weapons or contra ban and how many affect accidents and fatality in these areas? so it's really, we don't want to just look at lessening stops which want to look at all of the data and what it's doing.

and percentage of folks, and also my, sometimes it might be helpful to look at the geographic area where these are happening in. it's sort of overall we get a gist but if we can break it down, it may help us even more. ipg all of the factors weigh in. it's really, all of those things are affected by these things. so i don't know if it's a

question but maybe looking at the data and seeing if we can drill down deeper, not to create more work but it's helpful to look at, that's all. thank you, that's it. >> can i interject and take a shot at ronedinging commission walker's last point. i did take on some of that work myself not too long ago. just looking at the bay view. sending more officers into high neighborhood that so to have a higher percentage of black residents. but when you look at the day view act for this specifically demographic of that neighborhood, the racial disparities remain despite that.

and because it accounted for 5% in 2019, it's not regardless of what disparities were there it would not drive the overall numbers city wide. that's just one piece one piece of the issue. >> we can see what we can come up with. >> thanks. >> if i can just say one other thing, it goes back to commissioner cartero behrstone. i think we're focused on the right areas. we know there is disproportion alt. the policies that we put in place.

it's the right area focus, and then we'll have to really, better position of that pretext stop. we know we've had much research and it's something that we have to take a look at. that's what the data tells us, we have to see what the policy when they do change, that's what i'm hopeful of. i think we're on the right track based on the data. there is no argument there, i don't want to be, i'm not trying to be argumentative

these things are things that, everybody that from a academic perspective that has worked us has told that yous that's where we need to be focused and that's what we need to do here. i think it's very different conversation and it really helps to educate people in terms of the steps that the department is taking and i know officers are frustrated with this too, i hear it. i think it's important to highlight that kind of work and let us know what is happening. okay, thank you so much everyone for the robust discussion. i'm going to turn it over to the public comment. >> at this time, the public is welcomed to make public comment.

good evening caller, you have two minutes. >> hello, i'm a resident of district 1. i want to say thank you, on why these numbers persist. i feel your frustration, we've seen them forever. the rate should be 0. and i don't understand chief on how we're on the right track based on data. i appreciate hammering that point home and saying whatever is being done is now producing

the results that we expect. as commissioner benedicto mentioned, i agree that pg01 that will only work if they get feedback from the community. please take these meetings and into the community. hold them outside examine make them more accessible, provide a space between working group numbers. i would like to understand why this they think the recommendation will work. is there any data to back this up? has this worked for other police departments? if things are going to improve, how do we know that. what time frame are we looking at, thank you. line item 9. presentation, quarterly update discussion.

>>ed good evening, members of the commission, executive director henderson and chief scott and members of the public. i'm eric i'm commanding officer of the professional standards policing bureau. and tonight i'll be doing a presentation on four report for the initiative. next slide please. as we all know, in 2015, which created an assessment from the department of justice that produced 272 recommendations five objectives. those objectives in categories were community policing and recruitment and use of force. thed department has completed 245 which has been deemed

compliant by the department of justifyis which has left 27 recommendations. with the 205 recommendations to ensure that we continue to stay and as you go to the next slide, those are what they do, they represent 40 period for which we address every objectives. so you will see that in january of february it will be renewing use of force. you also see responsibilities that are designed and that would be quarterly and annual

review and auditing and rotedering to ensure that we are still staying in compliance. what want to bring up, i want to see the context of that. when we looked at the 245 recommendations. when we look at general views, other recommendations that don't necessarily have a specific requirement. however it's important that we review them on annual basis to

ensure that we are recognizing. next slide please. moving forward with the 27, next slide sorry, sir. moving forward with the 27 recommendations that we do have in progress, initially as we progressed to this process, we, we would address every recommendation as independent recommendation. however, moving forward with the 27 that are still remaining in progress. we noticed that quite a few of them have nexus to each other. instead of identifying them as individual pok --pockets, we look to poket them.

toes are the six recommendation and moving down the subsequent slides will explain in further detail. so if we can move forward, i would appreciate it. as to be bucketed to project management and part thf management is to develop electronic data. we want to standardize data. we want to coordinate with the san francisco department to ensure that we have accuracy while identifying patterns,

that's the high level review of what our cri objective is in terms of force recommendations. as we discussed earlier on this meeting, the biases and management has come up. we still have six recommendations. we move recommendation which is 7.9, 19.1 and 39 about the 2 and 39.3. due to the fablgt that they encompass our value, evaluation, we felt it appropriate to intertwine those with the biased recommendation. and obviously, the

recommendation and bias management dashboard is to produce reports to help supervisors identify members who's interactions in the community result in despair treatment of any specific community and what they will do, collect data to where we can look for trends and look for patterns and also notify member commanding officers all the way to the lult to sergeant. they do have recommendation, but in developing these plans, we address these as one plan and you'll see that there is a

note. and california department of justice, 26.1 and they were kicked back to us and predicated op the conditions that covid presented to meet regularly with the community whether that be the captains meetings. so the remaineding recommendation right side associated with reinvigorating the chief's form, developing a process where we can handle a report on the issues raised as well as updating our community policing annually. next slide. as we move into the accountability portion of management pools.

while also committee that we'll review on a quarterly basis and that will help to ensure that we're not only reviewing the data but we're ensuring that there is imparttiality to report the mindings from the community and recommendations to the policing. out of the 27 there are recommendation that's stand alone that evaluate, we didn't think that would be connected or inner connected with the project management plans. if we look at recommendation 55.2 that's to develop a report regarding complaints against the members that are outcomes and and misconduct for both

intern al and external. this is waiting to be submitted for further review. we're nearly done with that recommendation. as we go down to the community policing recommendation to identify as 39.141.1, those have had some significant work. happening on regular and finally, the last recommendation for forces 1.1 which is to review and understand the reason for disparity force. there has been a qualitative research analysis done through jason and his team that has been reviewed and been returned for minor edits but we look

forward to presenting that to chief staff as well as our partners for further, i guess further debate not debate but further opportunities to get this recommendation into substantial compliance. so that will conclude presentation for cri, i'm happy to answer any questions moving forward. >> thank you. for your presentation. and your slides. i want to go back to page 11 if we can real quick please. wondering on you mentioned that there was an academic review with respect to 5.01 when can we see that report? this is the first time that we're hearing of it, well i'm hearing of it.

can you provide more information on that. is that related to recommendation 1.1. >> i think it was, it was page 11, can you hold that up, please. >> so dr. nick and i'm sorry i don't know how to pronounce his last name, i call him nick, who works for jason cunningham.

research paper in terms of how the department should move forward in, in researching and developing the means to respond to this recommendation. when can we see the findings? >> it's been completed, i know it's been reviewed by myself and director mcwire and turn to nick for some updates and some adjustments and it was our interpretation to submit that to review by chief scott. >> and when would the internal audit done? internal? >> i'm going to jump in here,

this is the academic scope of work. so that piece that scope of work is complete. the actual analysis and we want to get on the same page that that is an approach that we can take because we have not talked about analysis with them. and so we'll, we'll be doing the actual work. >> thank you, so when was that done? >> we have about 12 months that that recommendation will be complete. we have not completed in internal quantitative we completed the plan and mythology. >> okay, so when was the plan and mythology. >> the draft, i believe has

been done for a, you know, the last place i thought it was was back with nick to revise. >> when was that? >> that was a month or so ago, maybe more considering leave time. >> is that correct? >> sorry i got your ranking wrong. >> that's okay. >> i would say that it was returned to nick about a month ago, yes. >> he's assigned to the business analysis team which is under executive director. >> okay. >> but you don't have it and

there is no holdup on your part, right. >> no, it's still under the revision. it's been returned. >> when can we that the commission expect to understand how you plan tackle this issue? i'll have to discuss with nick the approval process but i can get back to you with the time. >> that would be great. i think we as a commissioner are interested in understand and know what the department is doing to address this use of force data. and this is something that obviously going in the right direction but we would love to hear more about it. i'm going to turn it over, i

think commissioner deny dicto. >> i know that a significant part of doj segment and early part of the process were the executive working groups including participating from various organizations. those were paused during covid. there is a goal to reengage with with the station, community advisory boards and the chiefs quorum, is there a plan to reengage executive responsing group from those working groups? >> they don't necessarily call for those, what they call for is the process to determine whether they're being determined or not. a lot to do that was the chief's directive on working

groups and doj109 defined how those are suppose to go. we have to be able to show what they are in terms of when we're beginning working groups i'm not sure. i would have to communicate. >> thank you. >> maybe the chief knows. >> yes, i do. so one of the videos we're going to go forward because that's the d g.o. that has undergone a lot of work with a lot of different stakeholders. so we're going to push forward with that and that is going to be managed by a strategic management bureau. working group, and positions

were allocated in this year's budget. we're in the process of hiring or trying to hire the folks for those positions. so we can get in place and they can start allocated working groups. to get that authorization and complete that process. i think once the hiring starts, you will have to train them and bring them up to speed.

we have to get the rest of the process to catch up on that and we're trying to push as fast as we can. >> henderson. >> sure, i just had a question i know we were going back and forth on the final draft that is in the possession of, i guess one of the internal teams that is with the department. if the document exist already, anybody can make a request to get that document before they have a chance to look at it or review the data. it seems it would be more collaborative if it is in fact the final draft as we were just told. we should be able to see that.

i completely agree and reiterate that the words used were not correct. the document has been drafted and feedback to our analyst our ph.d is a because a work plan. scope of methodology and work. a plan to analyze. i'm not crazy. that's what was said and if it's a final draft there is no need to have the back and forth but whatever you qualified is whatever you qualified. there is no arguing about what a final draft is, if it's a

final draft that exist it's a final document. it is what it is. >> understand and we're also happy to bring in that scope of work and methodology plan to the commission. >> thank you very much, i praoern it. --appreciate it. no other public comment. >> thank you, lieutenant. >> thank you. >> at this time the public is welcome to make public comment regarding line item 9. if you would like to make public comment please press star-3 now. vice president, there is no vice public comment. >> next item please. >> next item is 10 which has been pulled. item number 11, public comment on all sklug public comment on item 12, vote to hold item 12 in closed session. if would you like to make

public comment, please press star-3. and there is no public comment. line item 12 vote to hold item 13 in closed session. with 13 b.c. and d san francisco code section 6710 action. >> i'll make a motion, can i get a second. >> second. >> thank you. >> on the motion, commissioner walker how do you vote. >> yes. >> yes. commissioner benedicto. >> yes. >> commissioner deny dicto yes. >> commissioner oberstone yes. >> yes. >> commissioner yee. >> yes. >> and vice president. >> yes. >> we have 6 yeses, i will take us into closed session. >> thank you.

>> one more statement. we are the one. that is our first single that we made. that is our opinion. >> i can't argue with you. >> you are responsible please do not know his exact. [♪♪♪] [♪♪♪] [♪♪♪] >> i had a break when i was on a major label for my musical career. i took a seven year break. and then i came back. i worked in the library for a long time.

when i started working the san francisco history centre, i noticed they had the hippie collection. i thought, if they have a hippie collection, they really need to have a punk collection as well. so i talked to the city archivist who is my boss. she was very interested. one of the things that i wanted to get to the library was the avengers collection. this is definitely a valuable poster. because it is petty bone. it has that weird look because it was framed. it had something acid on it and something not acid framing it. we had to bring all of this stuff that had been piling up in my life here and make sure that the important parts of it got archived. it wasn't a big stretch for them to start collecting in the area of punk. we have a lot of great photos and flyers from that area and that. that i could donate myself.

from they're, i decided, you know, why not pursue other people and other bands and get them to donate as well? the historic moments in san francisco, punk history, is the sex pistols concert which was at winterland. [♪♪♪] it brought all of the punks on the web -- west coast to san francisco to see this show. the sex pistols played the east coast and then they play texas and a few places in the south and then they came directly to san francisco. they skipped l.a. and they skipped most of the media centres. san francisco was really the biggest show for them pick it was their biggest show ever. their tour manager was interested in managing the adventures, my band. we were asked to open to support the pistols way to that show. and the nuns were also asked to open the show. it was certainly the biggest crowd that we had ever played to. it was kind of terrifying but it did bring people all the way from vancouver, tee seattle,

portland, san diego, all up and down the coast, and l.a., obviously. to san francisco to see this show. there are a lot of people who say that after they saw this show they thought they would start their own band. it was a great jumping off point for a lot of west coast punk. it was also, the pistols' last show. in a way, it was the end of one era of punk and the beginning of a new one. the city of san francisco didn't necessarily support punk rock. [♪♪♪] >> last, but certainly not least is a jell-o be opera. they are the punk rock candidate of the lead singer called the dead kennedys. >> if we are blaming anybody in san francisco, we will just blame the dead kennedys. >> there you go. >> we had situations where concerts were cancelled due to

flyers, obscene flyers that the city was thought -- that he thought was obscene that had been put up. the city of san francisco has come around to embrace it's musicians. when they have the centennial for city hall, they brought in all kinds of local musicians and i got to perform at that. that was, at -- in a way, and appreciation from the city of san francisco for the musical legends. i feel like a lot of people in san francisco don't realize what resources there are at the library. we had a film series, the s.f. punk film series that i put together. it was nearly sold out every single night. people were so appreciative that someone was bringing this for them. it is free. everything in the library is free. >> it it is also a film producer who has a film coming out. maybe in 2018 about crime. what is the title of it? >> it is called san francisco first and only rock 'n' roll movie.

crime, 1978. [laughter] >> when i first went to the art institute before the adventures were formed in 77, i was going to be a painter. i did not know i would turn into a punk singer. i got back into painting and i mostly do portraiture and figurative painting. one of the things about this job here is i discovered some great resources for images for my painting. i was looking through these mug shot books that we have here that are from the 1920s. i did a whole series of a mug shot paintings from those books. they are in the san francisco history centre's s.f. police department records. there are so many different things that the library provides for san franciscans that i feel like a lot of people are like, oh, i don't have a library card. i've never been there. they need to come down and check it out and find out what we

have. the people who are hiding stuff in their sellers and wondering what to do with these old photos or old junk, whether it is hippie stuff or punk stuff, or stuff from their grandparents, if they bring it here to us, we can preserve it and archive it and make it available to the public in the future. >> hole to everybody i'm the executive director of the office community investment and infrastructure, oci. i want to welcome to the grounds breaking of the mission bay, bayfront park.
