through june 30 and then i don't know when a 5020 events is again. it stands out again >> right >> double digits. why interesting. if there are all the h2's the others are all sort of spread amongst the rinks >> right >> we don't than yet we did speak about at this time other day. i thought it was high in health and safety meeting, we don't have the data yet. >> a helmet. >> no. >> you are sure. >> no. >> i'm pretty sure. we have to look back at the 3807 and 5020's to see how that injury occurred y. it was strike the difference between injury to other body part and injury to the head. the had the head injury is carry a lot. and the number was, was significant in so i was curious

about that. and if i may. we need the data i think you know you see head injury. my goodness we don't have like that many tbi's in the diameter. a lot believe be you know, somebody who needs stitches or if it is a 3807 it is very, very minor. this means it it is they don't go to the hospital. a 5020 they go to the hospital so could be they are getting upon stitches and you know. >> you realize you are talking in code. chief >> 3807 is on here. i want to understand. i'm telling you. 3807 if you see that on page 27, it is simple low an injury report that remains in house and the person does not go to the

hospital. 5020 if there is also a 5020 with this on page 28 that means they very much sought additional treatment to a hospital or go to a doctor a few days later. >> got t. thank you. that was helpful. >> i will spare you my last and wait until your next report thank you and welcome. >> thank you. commissioner collins. very pleased to see you have a plumber. as of july 10 and elect rigz, too. given the time it took to get those two individuals. is it time to lobby for a carpenter? or in other medical person

>> to complete. >> in speaking on priorities sounds like a steam fit are might be best based on the data. chief mullin can speak to that. i say that chief mullin and congratulations to both. because from my tour of a few stations seemed like there were more issues in plumbing than electric. >> there are. and -- the bad news up front. we -- don't have an electrictrician he was hired and asked to provide his vaccination record and gave us a fake card. and we had to let him go and become in the search for another one. and we will try to avoid that in the future. he was well informd that it was

required in the city several times. you are authorizeed have one. we are authorized. >> we are going to hire. >> i was getting to seemed like there is trouble getting takes a long time to get authorization. >> it does. >> what i want to do and started to do is track the difference in the cost savings. between our plumber we have the plumber on00 autojob now. versus when we chop it out with dpw. last week we had a water heater go down at station 26. it was difficult to change out because it was on the third floor the roof in a concrete mechanical room. they had to go up fork lift and went up and cut out a large louver. removed it, dropped temperature

brought up the new or took out old one and brought in the new water heat exert installed it. they need one dpw plumber. in the past that would be 3 plumbers and they would have had to come out with a crane to do that. >> would have been tense of thousands of dollars. >> yea. >> i saw carpenter we needs to be upon handled. you know cursory to you and probably -- not difficult to look at it 40% dpw mark and up reach the conclusion it is better to have your own staff. i know you know. and i can give you a sort of historical perspective. i first start in the 2019, i wanted to us to get our own people plumber,

electricitytrician and mechanic. dpw sits under the city administrator and we were denied self years in a row and finally got approval last year's budget if not before then and it has taken this long. hiring in the city can be challenging. i know there has been media pieces about that and the like. but i'm so glad we have a plumb or board and we can start to see how it benefits us. >> so my point and i hope i made it clearly was since it takes years, are we starting. >> we are. talking about that. >> what would be the next best hire. our amount of volume of different trade >> great. your answer is, yes, you started

that. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. commissioner fraser. >> thank you >> thank you, so much. chief kaialoa, congratulations this was a comprehensive report of lots of things mentioned i'm interested inform i want to return to the coit tower thing we had 2 day's notice. 9:30 on a friday night and 40 degrees 40 miles per hour winds and fog. and everybody command staff showed up best foot forward with the truck and it was a great showing. only because of the short notice i want to congratulate everybody and thank you. >> etch thank you. it was a we event. the lights were up for 2-3 nights and that was it. but anyway. well done all i have to say. thank you. >> thank you very much.

commissioner fraser. vice president morgan. >> thank you for your report, chief. i want to commend you guys. i was looking at the especially on the random drug test and it is post accident alcohol drug testingure always negative. not like in other industries i assure you. [laughter]. the industry i come from take out a dump truck and they take off running. don't bother with the drug test. yea. commends you on this. >> don't they ever catch anybody? that's great news. let's see and -- other 2 commissioners stole my questions. and which is good. but i am piggyback on commissioner collins about the plumber and electrictrician.

why is it more none money with dpw opposed to hiring your own. that would be considered. public employee, right. in the public employee union we are talking union this is a union town? >> yes. would they be in the public considered a public employee? . they are not guilty union and work for public works a city employee and the thing with public work system they are pret much a monopoly for us. it00 eye can't remember if in the sharter or but there is an upon chapter this states we need to use a public works first and give them first right of refusal. and so -- with that, they do a

40% mark up after. and and really, and so this is why i have been set foot in the position like to do it for mechanics and vehicles as limp because -- central shops also has a mark up. and so it -- that's how -- they pay their people. >> okay feinstein made a request. >> morgan's comments. am i correct that dpw does not receive general fund dollars. hence the mark up i know there are other -- functions that are performed by city employees.

not just for the work done but the administrative folks they have to hire. all of that stuff. city attorneys they need. all of it. and so it all ends up in our lapse. >> thank you, chief and thank you president nakajo. >> thank you very much. vice president morgan. continue, vice president morgan. >> seemed like the get mad at me the steam fitters making a fortune off you. they are old building and need the work. with the boilers and all the stuff. mystery prices furnace. a lot of work keep a lot of

people busy. other then and there that. hopeful leave they can maintaining the buildings, you are on it. and you got your hands full. chief mullins. >> never a dull mobile home. that's all i good. thank you for your report chief kay lowasm >> thank you. vice president morgan did you want to mention the other subject matters the others touchod for knowledge base of staff. >> you were menninging the commissioners took your question and i just thought for the benefit. >>iel. i was you know going to ask about the -- dpw the -- plumber and the electrictrician you will hire and commissioner collins already asked this question.

>> unfortunate situation. hey. saves money makes sense. and -- upon commissioner feinstein stole my retirement questions. [laughter]. 980 i was going to ask this, too. >> good questions. you are on it. >> thank you very much. >> if i may? i think what you are trying to accomplish here is to pay for what it actually costs to do the work. to get closer to that number. what will does it cost to do this work? as opposed to that is costs to do this work plus, a fully loaded theoretical number that gets added on to it. right? -- regardless was funding of dpw.

costs a certain amount. and it is fair to add a bit to that. it is not fair to load it and put some fire stations in the position of -- passing the hat among themselves to get work done. in city owned buildings this is in the acceptable. right? the buildings are liking on them or falling apart or you continue is not acceptable. so -- i think it is a very serious injustice to our firefighters. and our department. i know i'm preaching to the choir. you know -- alleluia for the plumber. keep rolling. commissioner collins, thank you.

il comment and ask a few questions temperature important this the commissioners express themselves and concerns. for the benefit of you, chief and the benefit as the command staff. you get a flavor with the commission what the concerns are. and frank low the expertise on this as well. commissioner, clothes the dpw scenario is something i dealt with for 27 years when i came in we had a plumber. and in fact i grew up with that plumb per at one point in grammar school. there was a clear this yep that used to have robust activity with is now a plumber not that is past tense and history. for us chief, retournament this level. and i think you heart flavor of the commissioner i wanted say it

is important we hear what the cho and the departmentful thank you, chief. it is important for us to hear when is real out there. i'm not saying we don't believe but factual information is important. >> if i may, i just locked up public works budget. and it says that 15% near low 15% of the ref now sources from the city's general upon fund support local tax ref nows the imupon poubld waste fund and property transfer sales, hotel and business tax. 15% does come from the general fund. why thank you for this. thank you for this economy commissioner feinstein. also commissioner fraser, thank you for sharing the coit tower experience with winds and fog and cold. the same pride i feel hi see vice president morgan and i out

there 5:30 in the morning command staff is you will there. it is something. the team all together i wanted comment on that. i will ask you commends you for your presentation, chief and your own style. no pressure. . i being it is important and all important for you to hear your narrative. and i appreciate the way that you point out narratives in the department through this report this . is a heavy report. that's why i have to kind of decipher i will take opportunity to do this. i said smooth and order low transition and support the command staff and the chief. but our clothes called up the chiefs i will do that as well if i may, chief. i want to bring up chief beaufort. there was a recognition by

commissioner feinstein on the term 960 and chief nicholson described what that means in terms of duration of time and period that report came out and i wanted bring it up and ask more on temperature the narrative is simple. chief beaufort, if i may. first line says, welcome chief beaufort. 960. you hear the questions asked we understand it to be what was it again? 90 days within the year? but in your report you have a specific designation what you want to do with the 950's. if you can narrate that for the commission, please? president next joe. vice president morgan. commissioner collins, fraser. feinstein and chief nicholson.

thank you. that portion was suggested fromllowllow anderson trying to expand the out roach and recruitment. as a suggestion to myself asked if we could pursue the opportunity to hire retiree in the 960 which are part-time employees to be able to assist us in the office. as they expand. currently, you know office is 2 of us taking on the responsible of on boarding and as well as trying to expand training and out reach to the community we work with. with community partners who build accesses and wrap around service in addition, we would like to start working toward the internal recruitment to talk about the yours like prevention and the airport, training and additional training required to help bring a more inclusive

environment t. is to bring to the chief in commission as a possibility of adding on an adigz additional resource. >> chief, is this implemented now or projectd and is there a mack or minimum on the numbers of 960's? >> chief nicholson used 960 sparingly in other areas like behavioral health to help during transitions members move through and so, it is not something that the department [inaudible]. we have use today in the past to help us get through difficult areas or train come bridge needed areas. >> thank you. chief nicholson? >> thank you. yes, we have used 960's in the past. and has been of great benefit you to. as you heard from assistant

chief beaufort there was too much to do in the dei office and -- so we need to look at how we support the dei office so they can do what we need them to do. and so we are always thinking of out of the box ideas. of how to do this x. 960's could be one of the piece. >> okay. i appreciate that. i will wait to get clarity in terms of mack numbers or whatever. ir think when i picked it up from commissioner feinstein 960 was a great idea. we use today before. i wanted thinked impact on budget or how that works for us and positivity but to have retirees we turn to the department in a role makes sense to me. i try and keep contact with former firefighters and chief officers and retired and it is not easy to operate yourself in the department of and even in

terms members now that will go out the door. i know that i asked the question what are you doing without the department. there are member this is have been involved with that. i wanted comment. it is good to pull a 960 if you comprehend i'm assuming the word goes out there will be some numbers the term i will use or number in terms of it. i say the resource. promise vied information. mr. beaufort. and transition other than the report. support service predecessor.

>> and all of the questions this come up >> on here page 4, chief. i go through the report. retires and lefted are you with mow on page 43. >> the envelope. improve am project. i seen a lot of reports but don't recollect that if he were nog package one and 2. i see the anywheration of that but -- can you give me more? can you give us more on that. what does that? >> this would be more and [inaudible] work.

bond money different east bond. there is work peculiaraged up under 2 different -- and to be clear. if there is a question i have or we have and you don't continue at hand. we are sure you will bring that back and to be fair to the chief's department nobody knows who upon ask the questions. this report has bonds information. and so has chief mill are come on as well and again chief miller's report. i guess answers my request where the reports are and chief? thank you president nakajo. vice president morgan.

commissioners. in the left month i held both jobs. these are referencing work that come on line for us. closing the 2010 bond there is interest, crewed to the bond. fold nothing in to future projects including work in envelope projects will be a great benefit to support service. it is that connection with the path of supportive service. they only split at the beginning of the year. so the -- reference to packages i believe is just -- a decision and point where we decide what work can be done for what price pointful joc is jarring an and nomenclature a contracting. that coming in under a set amount under a million dollars

conducted under public work this is is on n transification. this information is just referencing future work that will come in under this project time. and that savings role or the additional money role from the 2010 bond y. that clarity help and appreciate it and appreciate the relationship with support services and the bond. as well, chief mullins and miller. not easy. in my mind the new training station this we have this is in front of us. per of that some concentration on station upon 7. that currently as i read the report, does not seem to be a budget for that. this makes sense to mow if we can finesse something on the agenda. that clarity package now makes

sense. appreciate it. >> help to help. >> chief miller, i know i will not ask you up here but want to say in this report in the seat for awhile on page 51 treasure island emergency fire water supply. i learned that but -- i never knew there was an emergency water supply like that efws. does not surprise me. i appreciate this, chief. congratulations. on page 51. i did not know we had our own separate water supply on t. i. >> president, vice president and commissioners temperature is still under construction. the city's high pressure water system or emergency firefighting system the intention to have i

functional emergency firefighting water system on treasure island. it will have a great number of residents at some point. intention to install the system this will follow the main thorough fares can supplied boy a salt water pumping spagz complete nothing 2028. in the time and in cases when that pump facility might not be available intention is manifolds on the shore line and the fire boat and crew set the ferry terminal appropriate to tie and up supply this water system at one of the intended manifold installation points 4-500 feet of hose. a significant amount of hose for the boat to supply water in the system and the water supply can

explore installing an if i canned facility to have hose in place for that operation. would be a great deal on the fire boat and layout from the boat. >> all right. i appreciate that. the explaining on page 51. a real cover ownership is this still the term existing or still transitional? what is that? that cover is in place the location of the future manifold. the manufactures had struggles. meeting the to the residences we require. it is in press and expect success. that is the location they explore the hose cabinet. >> chief on top of my head what is this population of residents there t. i.? i have an idea. >> i cannot speak to that.

>> all right. >> that is something perhaps we know it will be increased. thank you very much. for that. >> you are welcome. appreciate your patience with me. at some point because part of the property i thought that being it is captain ain't chew used to be a part of this. i did not see it here but some point and [inaudible] came up as limp i thank you it is important the commission chief nicholson if we can have anthony boon come up to introduce himself to the commissioners. and at in point. yea. that's the one. >> to clarify, president for captain chu you like him to present or like information in

the. i would not mind seeing him up here he i know he works during the day you can tell me when we can schedule him. his job is a tough job. >> difficult. why the commissioners should be aware television with all of the things that come out from the et cetera, et cetera . but -- there is a mandate to get prop f and he's got to be the person. i continued. part of your report, chief yoochl yep. and the last thing chief nicholson. there was a number of reported retirements this month threat or 46? was that the expectation? weep thought it might be higher f. this is the case being mid year are we good on retirements at this point? >> we expected a higher number. there was talk of a much higher

number. so, 41 for the month of june basically the end of the fiscal year is not as high as we thought. if you look how much retired the past year and hires the past year there is a net gain that's when we look for every year so we can reduce continue to reduce the over time. >> okay. thank you very much. >> thank you for your report. item 5 am public comment on item 6. public comment on all matters pertaining to 6 below including public comment on whether or not to hold diks 6b in closed session is there public comment? >> then propping and nobody on the comment line. where public comment is closed.

[music] digital literacy is something severely lacking in our world today and it takes a lot to understand that. food water and shelter have basic necessities so long we forget about wifi and connection to the interenet and when you go into communities and realize peep ople are not able to load homework and talk to teachers and out of touch with the world. by providing the network and system we are able to allow them to keep up in the modern age. >> folks still were not served by internet throughout the city and tended to be low income people, people in affordable housing.

people of color and limited english and seniors, all those are high concentrations in affordable housing, so we thought given that we had a fiber network that stretched throughout the city reaching deep into neighborhoods that would be a perfect opportunity to address it in san francisco. >> the infrastructure the city and star help us run are dejtle programs. it played a critical role from the time we opened during covid till now so we were able to collaborate with online services that offer tutoring and school support. it also helped us be able to log the kids on for online school during covid, in addition to like, now that everybody has switched most of their curriculum online we can log kids on to the online homework, check grades in addition to helping parent learn how to use the

school system portm >> the office of digital equity our goal fiber to housing is insure we have all three legs of the 3 legged stool. the first leg is high quality internet connection. we liken the high quality internet connection to the highway. the second leg is high quality devices. this is the car. you want to make sure the specks on the car is up to speed and lastly, it is important to get kind of that driver's education to learn how to navigate the road, to know the signs to watch out for in terms of making sure you are school while you are surfing the internet it is private so that is the digital literacy piece. >> my daily life i need the internet just to do pretty much everything. the internet has taken so much control over

people's daily lives including myself that i just need it to get certain jobs done, i need it for my life. i need it. >> the program really seeks to where ever possible provide a service that's equivalent or higher speed and quality as the best commercial service . >> we serve all of san francisco, but we definitely have to be equitable in our distribution of services. that means everybody gets what they need to be successful. >> actually one of the most gratifying part of my work here at department of technology, it is really bringing city resources to address problems faced with our communities with the highest need. >> i think it is important because i grew up in a low income community without internet access and it is hard. i think it is important for everyone to have internet access no matter their income and maybe one day their kid

will have internet access for us and help the school and with their skills.

>> very excited moment for us as we get to recognize our san francisco police officers for the month of april, may and june. i'm assistant chief daved lazar. chief of the department. on behalf

of london breed and bill scott, i want to welcome oo your today's ceremony. as background we had gone many many years without have formal recognition. we would have award ceremonies and recognizing officers for crisis interventions and things like that, but nothing specific and separate and stand aloneered raing regarding the day to day work the police officers do every day. this is a very challenging award to decide on because our officers do such great work. it is hard to pick the best awards for the circumstances. today hear a couple great things our offices have done so able to find good things and recognize our people for. happy to be here today. last-our first ceremony was room 201 and we stuffed in there and had a great time and recognized officers and families but grateful to make it

formal and thank you mayor breed. alright. round of applause for mayor breed, please. [applause] >> so, before i call the mayor up, i just like to recognize many people in the room today and many of our sponsors. chief scott unfortunately couldn't be here. we were all planning to come together. we had a incident in the city the chief had to respond to so i'll fill in for him and his remarks. i like to recognize the president of board of supervisors aaron peskin. [applause] thank you. supervisor rafael mandelman. [applause] our san francisco police commissioners walker, benedicto, yee and burn. thank you commissioners for being here. [applause] our sheriff for paul

mimamoto. see this is what we put together, a nice backdop so identify have something to take a photo with. i like to recognize members of command staff and professional staff here today. very grateful for all the support. tenderloin station, i see plain clothe officers and i know that take you off the street, put you right back on as soon as we can, because you is a lot of work to do out there, but we are grateful you are here to support your fellow officers and thank you to aaron pera from community engagement to put this event togethers. i also like to thank the sponsors, without the sponsors it would be very challenging to make this happen. bxp, specifically bobpieceer, rob dale, steve cullven, retired chief sur. it was

chief surthat pushed all this to get this going again. and retired deputy chief john loftus. the hiat reej agency, hearse corporation, san francisco police officer association, and jp morgan chase. i like to thank prologueus,boma, hotel council, alex bastion, union square alliance, melissa rodriguez, the neighbors for better san francisco, the san francisco counsf of district merchants, thank you for being here today and ground floor, alex turk thank you for being here and all friends and supporters, that you can so much for making today a possible. with that, i like to call up mayor breed for a few words. [applause] >> good evening everyone and

thank you all so much for joining us here today. let me start by thanking the members who are being honored from the san francisco police department for continuing to put your lives on the line to serve and protect the people of this city, despite the challenges that knroe i know we all know law enforcement continues to face. thank you to family members and friends and those joining us here as well to support these extraordinary officers who are being honored. your support is extremely important. your prayers are always welcome because we need to make sure they continue to be safe as they go about the work of the people of the city and county of san francisco. thank you to our elected leaders and our sponsors and our supporters, our commissioners and so many people who serve in the capacity to insure that when we are doing the work of

the people of san francisco, that we are reminded about the people who are actually out on the streets doing the work on our behalf. the city has been experiencing a lot of challenges, and as i said, law enforcement has not always been treated like they should. in some cases by the leaders of the city, including myself. and bringing this event back has been an opportunity to really make sure that we are not just pointing the finger, making policy decisions and not having discussion and talk with the men and women of the department. i had an opportunity to visit many of the police stations throughout san francisco, and have really hard conversations with the people who are doing the work, because often times as policy makers, as leaders, we

are making decisions about policies, we are making decisions about investment, yet we have no idea what it feels like to actually roll up our sleeves and put ourselves on the line the way the people we are honoring here today do every single day. this is a way to just really highlight some of that work, because we hear enough about the complaints. we hear enough about the people who are trying to put our city down and in particular, put this department down. this is an opportunity to elevate this department, and elevate the work that you do and the hard choices that you have to make in the split seconds that you have to make them. we know that it is complicated. we know that people may not all understand, but we know that you also love this work and you love what you do and you enjoy being out there making sure that you're able to make these

decisions to save lives. we appreciate it and today as you hear about some of the stories, some of the stories of-from a different perspective. you hear about car break-ins in san francisco, but what you don't always hear about, is the fact our officers are on the ground making those arrests and recovering property. going out of their way sometimes to make sure that someone who's suit case was stolen, they are looking for information and they are delivering their suitcase personally so their trip isn't completely ruined. what you don't hear about, is when people are asking for help and making the calls and they are the ones that are showing up, and i know that it is hard, i know it has been challenging, but today really is about making sure that your stories are told. making sure that the people in this room, some of your families and friends and leaders, that we all know and

understand and value it, but also members of the public. because i will say that we hear about the stories. we see that on social media. what's happening and the complaints, but you don't always see the arrests and the work and some of the things that occur and that happen after the fact. because we don't just walk away after a crime is committed. that's when a lot of the real work begins. the investigations that happen. the search warrants that occur. putting together the evidence necessary to make sure that perpetrators of crime in this city are really brought to justice and all that work takes place because of the men and women of the san francisco police department. so, i want to thank you all so much for being here today to celebrate. we were at the last officer of the month event in a very small conference room in my

office, and i thought, this is a important celebration and it is only appropriate that it's celebrated in a important venue like city hall in this magnitude to recognize how important each and every one of you are to serving and protecting the city and county of san francisco. thank you all so much for your service and congratulations. [applause] >> okay, thank you very much mayor breed and all your support. i like to call up the president of the board supervisors to represent the board of supervisors, president aaron peskin. >> thank you assistant chief lazar, on behalf of myself and the ten members of legislative branch of government and my colleague, rafael

mandelman, let me add to the mayor's words to say that, we see you, we appreciate you, we thank you, and as district supervisors we actually as acting captain mureno knows, we hear the stories up close and personal and we actually know the rank and file. i know (indiscernible) i know gary and we see them every day interacting in the community. many years ago, there was a controversy at city hall where one of my colleagues who was post certified by the way, said, that we needed to mandate community policing. i was a new supervisor. this was about 20years ago. i said what is community policing, explain this to me. when he explained it to me, i realized that is exactly what i had at company a. police who knew the names of shop keepers.

police who knew the stories of what was happening with a individual who was on the street. police who went above and beyond the call of duty and dug into their pockets to make things right on the streets of san francisco. that is what i experienced and like mayor breed, i have to say, we haven't said thank you enough. i think we all live in our worlds and if there is one thing i have gotten out of the covid experience is that we just have to say thank you and acknowledge all of our city workers more often, particularly the city workers who have the toughest jobs who see the toughest things. i will say, because i don't want to steal my acting captain from company a's thunder that gary dexter, the two of you went so far above and beyond the call of duty in saving the young person's life, and aphending the individual who perpetrated those crimes. it just

sends shivers down my spine. i cannot thank you you two enough, as well as your colleagues from tenderloin, southern and northern stations for similar deeds. thank you. [applause] >> okay, thank you president peskin. before i begin pmy remarks i want to echo something that mayor breed said and really just thanking the families for being here and for supporting us. today is about you as well and your loved ones receiving the recognition but you are as well, because without you there is no way we can do this work day in and out so grateful you are here today. i got to meet families and look forward meeting everyone after so thank you. today we are acknowledging san francisco police officers who went above the call of duty showing bravery, professionalism and compassion in the work for the first 3 months of 2023. the officers work around the clock and prepared to respond to emergency jz crimes in progress

throughout the city. these officers show dedication and commitment to the people of san francisco and the members of the sfpd. their tenacity, diligence, propossessionalism were on display for incident responded to as a primary unit or backup to assist fellow officers. i want to thank perry and dexter who rendered aid to a stabbing victim on stockton and sutter streets. stopped the uncontrolled bleeding which may have saved the victim's life and the victim was a student from galileo high school. i want to thank officer (indiscernible) working robbery and burglary enforcement in san francisco on april 21. the officers assisting a visiting youth base ball team after their van was burglarized. the officers helped recover the team stolen property and arrest the suspect. the coach was so impressed by these
