2:36 am
budget cuts for this fiscal year but what about the fiscal year next july assuming the upon 7 people are in place in >> right when we estimate the budget for the positions we estimate the highest level. we don't anticipate having to hire all of them at the top step. and also -- we will not bring all this positions in at the same time. so we will have salary savings that way. i don't anticipate given the hiring of the ig is take long are than expected. i don't expect we would be hiring any staff that soovenl probably not until the second or third quarter. member soo mentioned 80 hours of training from the sheriff's departmentful men there men
2:37 am
information about the status of this. my understanding was this it was going to be 20 hours. i have not heard anything else about receiving additional mandatory training. >> i don't have knowledge of the training proposals. [no microphone]. >> okay. and this initiative is 7 added positions how many does the budget cover? >> i'm sorry. how many i know this list 7 additional positions how many existing are in this budget is this i believe well is 13. >> okay. can you give us a break down had they are? >> it will be i did not fwring ha. i know there is -- 11 -- 11 investigators dp a senior attorney. and a chief position.
2:38 am
>> and a cho position. and i believe there is -- support, too. there is -- admin position and a budget person. which was -- we need now. >> i'm sorry when you say cho position what is that? >> chief attorney position to over see the -- assist the oig. >> would be 3 attorney positions? >> no. it is the oig chief attorney position and the 7 investigators. and this additional naern in budget? >> right. >> i'm not aware of agencies that small having a chief attorney usually they supervisor other attorneys. i don't know about the need for both a media person can communities out reach personful
2:39 am
seems like that could be the same position? i'm going to move we approve this -- removing those 2 position the chief attorney position and the media officer. >> okay i'm sorry -- you know with budget i think it is better to ask for more can let the mayor take the positions away. i believe what the budget cuts she will take a lot, way and will not approve the 7 but it is more prudent to ask for more. but -- i will -- we will consider your comments. >> i don't think those positions are necessary because given budget situation the city findses itself in and the need to miles per hour miles an hour mraum officers for the upon plea come should have been's department. emergency dispatchers. i don't see these having that
2:40 am
level of priority. correct but we are trying to build a department it is better to ask for more to have successful full department. and we can change the positions around if needed. >> just my thinking is. >> thank you for your comment. >> president wechter a request to speak. as an attorney, and as machine this worked with different chiefs, in the san francisco da's office, when i was i practice cuter i think that a chief is an essential leader in an organization especially a new organization where it has so much staff. a chief not only deals with the attorney work and the daily they go in the daily fungsz of what that department does.
2:41 am
here we have a slew of investigators. which i, soup the chief would work with as well. i think to have the -- want to -- make sure we dispel misconception a chief assistant attorney position would just be limited to prierzing one attorney's work temperature is a lot more complex and a lot more involved. and i think we as members soo indicated we want to do everything in our power to ensure that our ig succeeds in performing the amounts of work that will be required of this department. i hear you and response i will change my motion to approve this changing the chief attorney position to staff attorney position give the ig2. i worked at 2 oversight entities either of them did not have a
2:42 am
chief attorney position. staff attorneys were capable. revowing the investigations and handling public record's requests and we did not need a chief position. so. i'm amending my motion. >> and may i speak. i am a staff attorney and senior staff council for a state agency. well is a difference with a bureau chief. general council and staff attorney. i think we learned that well from attorney kinds. well is a position where someone can approve things, make budget and a line staff attorney you don't have that authority. i think it is important to have attorney at a chief level. of am i mode why receive and community liaison would be rep did you understandant. i think member palmer would know we discussed about community out retch we need bhon is strategy
2:43 am
in the community with life experiences. also knowledgeable about the community. the modia person handles modia for the department may handle crossover mead why as limp i believe that is important. i do have a follow up question and i know we have been hamper in the this. and member palmer added, secretary leung could we have to aleave i didn't the hats you wear and dpa assisting us in having a staff person start to build up the infrastructure of the office? so i said, we don't want an ig coming in here and being overwhelmd and there will be a learning press a transition process. is there a possibility that dpa assist us in hiring another upon person at this point? i don't know if nicole armstrong
2:44 am
could other thans that or attorney kind? thank you. i don't have an answer to that question. with is all throughout mayor's budget office and hr. we have submitted requests for i budget person to able to help you all this is in the press now. but that is out of our hands we want to make surety process is correct. we would love to hire additional support. i want to make a correction. approximate dan's the only position we're asking for now with the attorney it is a new attorney position the chief attorney it is already on the fwhj is in the something we are it is an additional attorney to help with casework to manage the load and ground w we need in research needed. that is the approximate suspicion on the budget at this time. >> other questions and we do
2:45 am
have on the ids report we kept in the approximate sheriff's durpt see there is 40 grand there. we dhept if the sheriff does have training we can make sure you have training. not just the 1300 there is additional 40,000. than i know you need your train and there will be change overs. whatever helps we want to make sure you are trained and ready to g. >> i understood from the beginning of training we were receiving 25% television and that's why i estimateed be 80 hours we had 20 hours. joy was not part of the training i don't know the hours i want to make sure what you need you have funds and dan has it to do it. and dan is correct they are working on your appointments. there are things i will follow
2:46 am
up. so you will be receiving e mill from dan approximate asking for more information to make sure things are done so you receive stifle ends. >> there are oftentimes additional cut its better to ask for sxhr i would expect them members make themselves visible to appear before the board of supervisors to ask for add backs if there are cuts. and oftentimes the budget is made whole by supervisors. i suspect the experience of this charter would walton would advocate to have a whole budget and when we need to do. >> thank you. >> thank you. being an executive director of nonprofit positions fihad a
2:47 am
dhoons ask the mir for a binge would ask for as many positions and accomplices to be filled. i think it it is in line with our office to ask for more and then take when we get and we will be asking for more after. i would like to see this ride through. >> in response. i will with dru my motion. >> i want to add is that the number of investigators goes with the staffing and the number of deputies and so hopeful low we can attract more deputies that requires investigators as well. >> i do have a follow up question in terms of process. for the purposes of moving forward what are the next steps? the next step is we are going to
2:48 am
reports for our -- our -- -- invoices today. our final reports approved we'll rung the numbers for this fiscal year. final numbers the end of fiscal. we have an estimate q within expect 2 and we can the mayor's budget is due february 21st. >> in order to move forward, do you need an approval of the draft budget today to meet that deadline. with the comments or we will have a some meeting or how is this next step some >> i think the add voice from the city attorney we should vote to which approve >> right y. vote on this draft and we'll work on the final. >> thank you.
2:49 am
2:50 am
there is one caller. you have 2 minutes. no audio.... you have 2 minutes. >> this tracie i work for supervisor walten. and i wanted make i have been watching the -- hearing and i wanted make a few comments. my understanding is this only the oig can hire and when you ask for new positions i feel like the new oig should ask for the positions they should need
2:51 am
and so like for this to be taken into account. my understands is the training you keep talking about is in ordinance of the city attorney can find it and put what is required to your budget. defer to her on that. i think that -- you are required to do a formal public hearing on the budget i think this was noticed but not a community forum. and um -- all of our city departments now do that. i would ask that you do that as well. um, i know that um -- we are very interested get oig position filled and it takes a long time this was on the agenda and would love to figure out a way to ghaet pushed forward so it happens as quick low as possible
2:52 am
2:53 am
i just to repeat that i don't think another public hearing is required before you vet to send the budget to the mayor's office. >> thank you. prior motion to approve the budget as presented. we will take the vote for line item 7 vice president carrion. >> aye. >> member nguyen. >> member palmer >> aye. >> president wechter. >> [inaudible]. >> item 8 an rureport to the board of supervisors discussion and public action. the discussion report do you to board of supervisors pursunts to charter 4.137b6 and public action.

3:05 am
may be it is generational are not as solid writers we hoped. that offers an opportunity. and a question i will ask of hr and been to training i went through the interview process for the department on status of women, is that we as board members receive training in terms of per missable question and signing the confidentiality and how we handle interviews in closed session. there will be official. i believe we will ask in i fashion to all candidates. not like we let the cat out. there will be questions and not out in public.

3:13 am
again, thank you member soo for even without a title doing the person w. numerous members of the board have been asking for time table and asking for the work to get done. i mroesht you stepping up in that leadership role. even though this is not your task and thank you for create and taking time above and beyond what i think is expects of a regular board member to permit work. will i. welcome input from other members and looking pardon to working with the upon community and
3:14 am
having community input. i already it members of the community i do think we -- should have 4 community meetings. if necessary language interpreters. in the draft job posting i do include that we as a city and county subskroib to -- culturally rope delivery of services from what was called the equal access of service now the san francisco language ordinance. i want to make sure we are inclues exist get input.
3:15 am
ip support commune meetings and think these are our first meetings in the community they should have a focus on the charter. biholding public meetings and soliciting input from importance incarcerated in the city. and receive operations and jail conditions. . president wechter i want to be focused and so we will have those meetings but i want to issue sensitive we are focused on qualifications of the inspector general and the extent we -- go to a facility and
3:16 am
solicit comments and family members of those inparseerated we should guff but focused of getting i job posting out there. i don't want to get distracted by having more than one topic. i am make a motion we ask dhr to move forward with the process. meeting with each us to solicit our opinion. on hashould go in the job description and gather information about places to post it. >> i have a follow up question. >> for sean do you believe a
3:17 am
draft can be presented by next meeting? thank you. that is my hope. there are factors. i think that leads to another question that i would hope you can provide me, which is is there a point person i can work with on the board to have discussions and ask questions. and what manner if i am not able to get a hold of member or questions somebody i can have that discussion with? would be helpful and informative. why i'm happy to serve in that capacity. i would recommend that member soo and myself since we were part of the committee and specific low -- member soo did
3:18 am
the work. and drafting this and have been doing this work. i think that -- if want to have a point person given the amount of work of creating a work product. i would believe that -- member soo would be the best individual. have a first community meeting this month but this mr. shellborn you indicated you prebl have an hr version of the ig job description and pair 3 that we would have -- a second and third community meeting. so -- and i welcome anything other questions or anything you
3:19 am
need -- to make sure we are on the time line for the process. i think the board should vote on we have a motion before us. >> could you restate that motion? that we move forward authorizing dhr to move forward on encrewment of the ig middle easting with each of us to solicit our thought qualifications and suggests to post thing job description. >> second >> public comment.
3:20 am
we have no callers. thank you for being presents to answer questions and lend assistance. >> we will take the vote on the motion for dhr to move forward. vice president carrion. >> aye. >> member nguyen. >> aye. >> member palmer. why aye. why member soo. why aye. >> president wechter. why aye. >> motion passes.
3:21 am
i like to make a motion i serves a point person to coordinate. and incorporate input from all board members. you and member so to work together as the point person. can we do that? >> the city attorney? >> it is 2 of you were to work together this would be a committee. so that would trig are public meeting notice requirements. >> i would like to request to speak. at this point i do believe that the appropriate person should be member soo. since august the members had been requesting president week her create priorities.
3:22 am
work on citying community member meetings. these have been battles that have been fought to the downfall of what we are supposed to do. now after, after able to fight toward getting w done. having member soo doing the work. i don't think tell be appropriate for president wechter to come in. my perception hoe is an obstructionist in this regard in allowing us to wanting us to move forward with the actual work we are supposed to be doing. it is unfortunately. my interactions have been
3:23 am
negative. and bills respectful. i believe i'm not the only woman of color who had this experience. at this point, i don't have the confidence in president wechter to move us forward in the direction to hire an ig i don't think it has been demonstrated the past 6 machinings of failed leadership since august and ask our board members rescue noise where the work is getting done. it is common women of color attorneys doing the w and someone swooping in. we have an experienced attorney who has experience draft and i reporter.
3:24 am
part of recruitment for executive director position in a commission for status of women this is when we want to mack myself the skill set we have which is personal. i understand the argument may be that president wechter had experience in oversight boards for a time but here we near a new oversight board and post floyd era we have thankfully more diversity, more diverse perspectives being shown. things are changing because the things the way things were done before in the past 10-20 years have been a problem. so i scholarship the members to recognize the work and the skill set and the specific knowledge base that member soo has.
3:25 am
we have been waiting since august and asks for things. i can give a list but rather focus like i keep sigh saying on getting the work done that the votersment us to get. member soo demonstrated a commitment to doing so and for that reason i would reject that vote. >> i don't want to get in a personal dispute i'm sorry you foal had way about me. i will state they have spent significant conditional amount of time doing research off this issue. gathering the 12 job descriptions of similar positions i sent to all board members several months ago and at your request finding someone who can speak had not used the recruitment firm and i did thought i made it clear that i
3:26 am
wanted to participate and would be happy to work on deteriorating the job description but was not does not have an opportunity to. i don't believe i have not put in effort on this i don't think i become and forth is useful. i think that if other members have comments i would like to hear that and then. no audio. at this time. it took months get to this point. we don't need any of this we need to move forward with the work. also at no time during the last
3:27 am
meeting recording will demonstrate for those interested in learning exactly what happened. review the recording and not take it from bheem were not involved or -- who especially not present for the entirety of the meeting. it is obvious and clear that no time president wechter asked to join. i mentioned you would be great on it. there has been and in fact he did participate as an bencher. i like to have those 2 factual situations clear. the record speaks which is the recording of these proceedings. dooring members have comments on this issue?
3:28 am
gi understands board member soo and president wechter both doing good work and trying to get the oig job description out and hired. so -- i understand -- board member soo wants to participate as the point person and also president wechterments to as well. i would recommend we talk about that subcommittee again so everybody can have a voice in it. >> the subcommittee. >> so. since you want to participate point person and board member soo has an interest we should recontract subcommittee. i believe the issue raise exclude had issues with and the city attorney mention if we have 2 people we need have one person only if we have 2 people we have
3:29 am
all the notice requirements. sthal stop us from being able to dot work individual low that point person will do because every time thereupon is a meeting every time there is an e mail anything drafted needs to be specially noticed for a meeting. we need to select one in order to move forward. and not have any issues with sending one e mail or -- to sean. if there is 2 members on that is a meeting that is an unlawful act. we can't do this. >> i think -- board member approximate afuhaamango volunteered be a part of that. that woulding bring it to 3. right? >> that's community meeting this is is only from my understanding, this is only to
3:30 am
be the point person. this with sean and hr. this is in the to say each individual member will not have an opportunity top meet with dhr regarding their comment specials statements. so each us will have independent process. i believe that the rolled be to ensure it is a lodgist cal tracking moving and pushing it forward. forward. substantively the board has to make a collective decision. we have to have an approval and motion. and that would be i think a way where we could support member soo in the work that she has. approximatements to continue to do. that each person opinion and especially going become to the
3:32 am
my thoughts on this is leadership has to also galvanize the group example delegate as well. these are 2 important factors in being a good leader. president is diligent in his focus on making sure we get the right inig but i think this is an opportunity for to you trust your colleague and board member and allow her to proceed with the work she has developd and developed in a timely fashion and would allow her to move this part of our collective responsibility forward. and then could be other agenda items and issues you and the rest us could w on as limp that
3:33 am
will give you an opportunity to delegate just different issues and topics and -- and -- other members. we show up as a team and move this forward. we have been waiting for a language time to get this ig right? and so whatever we can do to stream line the process and move it faster in our interest and those we serve. gi appreciate the sincerity of your thoughts and the manner, i will follow your add vice. member palmer. >> i would like to say thank you to my fellow board members, i
3:34 am
don't need a title to dot work i'm a very busy public attorney and schedule 4 hearing in this first quarter and issued pleadings my interest is being efficient and having as few meeting and getting enough public input this is my interest. we waited for a time line. that's why i say drafted a time line of our obligations among low exit don't minds being a point purn know i have been a lead cochair of standing committee for the california democratic party and managed twine writers every other year sometimes not continuing member and turn out a work product. il say if i have to sacrifice slope i do i had a lead cochair who did not dot w and spent 70 hours a week before alone on
3:35 am
that plat form in addition to my workir slept in front of my report of i report work of hr i have experience in interviewing and qualifications of a department head as well and i understands the difficulties with civil service. of but approximate in her other appointee in member brook upper and killer concern approximate she has been supportive of the budget and offered members of her budget office to give us guidance. i will offer up moiz to continue to do the work i fully continued
3:36 am
is easier to have one point person had it come to finalize language and does in the mean that any board member comment and thoughts are ignored but president, this is had i tell junior upon attorneys or lustudents you can't kept on pulling more information without solidify and documenting. you could get yourself in an a cycle looking over documents. i rescue noise other jurisdictions have documents but that is why i have been electric to other jurisdictions who have someone established. because we were turning back and forth for the documents and carrying over agenda items. i notice we have not hit 2 hours yet and got all the items i wanted get on the agenda done when i sought draft of the agenda and the budget was last that did not make sense that is
3:37 am
a prior we need push forward. i'm happy we got everything. next is business cards id and photos we have not didn't basics. i'm willing to volunteer and like to we don't need to do this as a committee but also have the community meetings set in parallel with deteriorating and until it is final the posting goes tout is i dynamic document for input and thank you for the confidence. i don't know if we need a motion i would be human ordvice president carrion if you make it. why move toville member. why i'm sorry well is a motion mr. chairman president wechter do you with draw your motion. >> yes and thank you member soo for your willingness to take on this responsibility.

the broader media policy is a bit outside the described scope should be sdefred a later meeting. but the socialing mode why policy you provided the draft could be discuss in the this item. does that make sense. thank you. i think at this time i would like to continue the social modia policy discussion and put it in a broader media policy. and i say this because i was quite taken aback by the things articles that were forwarded to me about our board and alining vice president carrion and myself. that to me brings dishumanor toor up early
