the future is going to have to make sure that nobody attacks the veterinarians see not it's about health some hope of course, but. >> so step by step i don't know any way is to get you out of the traps you are you know we are all in including me except i'm working for this guys is big difference. >> step by step. so yeah, i have a handle. thank you. for the record, my name is christopher klein. some of you know is army is sergeant klein from the united states marine corps active duty. others know me as an investigator who has brought some serious concerns to the police commission tonight i'm introducing myself as the ceo of a nonprofit called paving stands for prejudice and

there when i was there that how the community came together and how community and police came together. >> so i'm hoping that this happens again and i'm hoping some of you that haven't gone will go a go back again and some of the police officers the may the mayor the the district by supervisors we need to do that. we need to go back go back and see what happened to us, what happened to our families because again, moderate day is just moderate day now and it's still happening. >> so i do hope this happens again and please if we don't know our history we are doomed to repeat it and we need to know this no matter what nationality you are, what color you are all of us been hurt so we need to know our history and

not down it the holocaust all of that people have been hurt. we need to know about that different national are these different different people so journal truth is the place for us to go to learn i never knew about this before. >> i never knew my history and being there made me know my history. >> i could teach my teach my children and my grandchildren what i learned there. >> thank you. that is the end of public comment for line item two we are removing the grant from the san francisco police community foundation. i want them to consent calendar receive and file action electronic bias audit for third fourth and end of year 2024 and a $5,000 grant from the national association of victims of crime act administrators

motion to receive and file on the first two items listed in the last item would be removed. >> all right. second, any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding the consent calendar. please approach the podium and there is no public comment on the motion. commissioner clay how do you vote? yes mr. clay is yes. commissioner benedicto yes. mr. benedict it was yes. >> commissioner young. yes. yes. mr. young yes. yes commissioner ye yes. >> mr. years yes. and present. yes. >> the minuses. yes. you have five yeses. line item three chiefs report discussion weekly crime trends and public safety concerns provide an overview of offenses, incidents or events occurring in san francisco having an impact on public safety chief scout thank you sergeant youngblood. >> good evening president elias commissioners executive director henderson and the public. i'll start off the report this week with just the general overall crime trends year to date overall port one crime is down 4,434% and that's broken

down by a 13% reduction in violent crime and a 37% reduction in property crime. some of the worst driving this crime reduction is there is a 56% reduction year to date and our break ins which continue the trend that we saw last year there's also in terms of deaths in general it's over 30% reduction in thefts and general . >> so that's really driving the overall crime part one crime numbers down in terms of our violent crime are shootings year to date are actually up 5%. however, our homicides are down. we're at one year to date. we had three this time last year in our gun related homicides or a third of what they were this time last year. >> and we also have we've cleared some older cases so our clearance rate is right now at 300% for the year because we've cleared more cases than we've

had homicides this year. so the homicide investigators are doing some really, really good work clearing some of the unsolved cases and i know we have a lot of work to do and hopefully if we can continue this trend it does give our folks time to work on those unsolved cases in those cold cases and spend more energy on those so that that's how we plan to use some of our resources moving forward in terms of significant incidents this past week, i just want to highlight the nba all-star game and the chinese new year parade and all the work that went into that total team effort for a number of city departments to make sure we had success to basically very significant events. we had pretty much everybody working over this last couple of days over the weekend but we had no significant incidents associated with the nba all-star game, no crimes that we know of associated with the nba all-star game. very high praise from the down

from the commissioner of the nba to the security teams that we work with had very high praise for the city of san francisco. what they're seeing in terms of a resurgence of the city as it was described by commissioner silver from the nba, just the energy that they saw this week. so it was very complimentary. but none of that happens without the people doing the work. so my hat's off to all of our officers and other city employees. they were out there all weekend making sure the city was clean and everything was coordinated and that we had it relatively incident free weekend. on top of that, the chinese new year parade went off without a hitch. very well attended, no drop off. and in terms of the security and policing for that event, no really crime incidents to speak of there were some medical calls along the route but it was a very, very good event as well. so just want to thank everybody

who participated in that and the commissioners who participated as well. >> as far as incidents over the past week, there were three nonfatal shootings resulted in three victims wounds on the 12th feb 12:46 p.m. sunningdale and sawyer two groups of individuals actually shooting at each other when a stray bullet struck an uninvolved victim. the victim was transported to the hospital in stable condition. there was one arrest associated with that shooting and that investigation is ongoing. on to 1325. we don't know the time because we haven't been able to determine the time a victim who was self transported to the hospital claimed that someone he knew shot and robbed him. the victim was in stable condition and the suspect's identity is still being investigated. so no arrest at this point on that particular case. it happened according to the victim in the area of polk and larkin. on the 16th of february at

12:30 a.m., etc. in polk in the northern district, officers responded to the hospital for another victim who was self transported with a gunshot wound. the victim advised he was in the area of sutter and polk when he heard a gunshot when he heard a gunshot and felt pain. no further information was provided. this investigation is also ongoing. no arrests at this time. >> there was an arrest made on a 2022 homicide case victim and on august 1st, 2022 shot multiple times in the unit block of brookdale. the victim later succumbed to his injuries. during the investigation evidence was located. two years later, investigators received information from that evidence that identified the possible one of the possible perpetrators. on 12 of this year, february 12th, that suspect was located and arrested. the arrest is being handled through the juvenile justice system as the suspect was 16

year old was a 16 year old at the time of the incident. in addition to that we had a robbery the 3300 block of fillmore avenue on valentine's day afternoon. the victim was at work when the suspect entered pointed a gun and demanded property. that suspect fled on foot and was located, detained and later arrested by our our responding officers. >> also a assault with a knife that occurred in the 2000 block of mission on the 11th of february 4:30 p.m.. the victim was followed into this location by a suspect who brandished a knife and attempted to stab the victim if a struggle ensued over the knife causing lacerations to the victim's hands. the victim was transported in stable condition. that suspect was also arrested at the scene. see this want to report on some of the sites for activity in

the bay area that happened over the weekend. first of all, i want to clarify some of the information that had gone out through various media outlets. there were no sideshows in the city of san francisco. however, there were there was a sideshow about 230 in the morning on the bay bridge. that was handled by chp with the assistance of one of our officers a cpd officers. but it was a busy night around the bay area at 9:30 p.m.. we were advised by it outside police department that sideshows were occurring outside of san francisco. and we started our coordination with many agencies including the california highway patrol. at that point we were advised that a small group of cars were actively involved in the sideshow and they went across the bridge bay bridge headed toward the city. the group was basically disrupted by the california highway patrol and they actually turned around and went

back east. >> as a result of what we thought would be a busy night with sideshow activity, our not driving response unit was activated. that unit reported scouting cars throughout the night. and basically our strategy was to get to the hotspots and prevent these events from happening before they could set up. we were extremely successful with that. we did not have any sideshows in the city. we basically were at the right places at the right times. however we did assist daly city pd about 2 a.m. when hundreds of vehicles ended up in daly city our unit and daly city pd quickly disrupted that particular sideshow and flushed those vehicles from that location. fireworks were set off vehicles poured onto the freeway including headed toward the bay bridge. with coordination with the chp. that's when the larger sideshow in the bay bridge occurred at

around 2:32 a.m.. so that was broken up but and there were was at least one arrest and i think there were two at least two cars impounded associated with that sideshow. bottom line on all this, it took a lot of coordination. we were able to prevent these events from happening in the city of san francisco, but it did take a lot of personnel hours and a lot of coordination. but i want to thank california highway patrol and all the other jurisdictions who work with us to do what we can to coordinate and make sure that not only in san francisco but across the bay area that we try to stop these sideshows from happening. and that is my report for this evening. >> thank you. each chief commissioner. >> i was just say just great report chief. we appreciate hearing all this information and obviously all the public service safety officers and the teams at work this past weekend and doing a wonderful job of having this city shine. and i guess from that we have

we convinced at least one celebrity to understand the way san francisco is moving in the right direction and how beautiful this city is. but he wrote a $250,000 check. i just thought that wasn't at that. sir charles barkley who's trash our city now is we're back. so if he says we're back, i guess the world should know we're back. so that's great job and keep doing what you're doing and hopefully we can continue to assist you in getting you the stuff that you need to do your work and your jobs. >> thank you commissioner. that did get preceded by that op ed from alex bastian that had a wonderful outline clarifying what the issues were for mr. barkley. but i think they go hand in hand and it would open the door to the conversation and the follow up. >> commissioner thank you very much, mr. president. >> sincerely. i just want to echo what commissioner clay said and you report it. i want to thank the police officers and your team the command staff putting together

a concise and i guess precise, you know, safety plan out there. you know, you had the chinese new year parade i guess there's probably over 250 to 250,000 people in attendance let alone to stretch that across to san francisco and also the nba all star events that happen around the city. >> wow. i'm just saying it's just a grand affair and he really hit it off. i also want to also thank the other first responder. i saw the sheriff's out there too as well and i want to thank them too also. >> there was a shooting on the post triangle i think about a day a day ago i can. if there's are any updates i guess you reported next time around. yes, sir. we do have some leads on that particular case so hopefully

we'll will be able to report some good news. but we do have some leads. >> thanks again, chief for excellent job and to your command staff and all to officer. >> thank you. >> thank you, sergeant. if any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item three the chief's report i would like to follow up. >> sorry, i have a hand up. sorry about that. >> i'm sorry. that's okay. it's always challenging. my apologies is thank you for that report, chief. and i really want to convey my appreciation to all the officers that worked. you know, multiple shifts i'm sure this weekend making sure that the city was shining and that the rest of the world could see that san francisco's not only back i don't think it's ever gone anywhere. we've always been a great city. just a quick question regarding the six feet the sixth street jesse project. we received the letter from the treatment on demand coalition

and the safer inside coalition with the latter kind of raising some questions and i know there's been some coverage i assumed incorrectly last week that you may include that in your chief's report. but do you have any update information for the public about what the purpose, goals and outcomes that we expect for that site on sixth street and the tents and the coordination that's taking place there? >> yes, sir. commissioner. the overall goal is to improve the street conditions on sixth street. a lot of the open air drug sales, drug usage there's other just street condition issues cleaning and that type of thing. so it's a really a continue station and an extension of the collaboration that we are doing with our drug market agency coordination center. it's all the same departments except for this effort would be focused on sixth street so that

the triage site the triage mobile triage center is basically a parking lot that the city now has has leased a portion of and we have all the city agencies that are part of this were basically sharing their parking lot to bring services to people that need them. there is a portion there where police officers can do what they need to do in terms of if there is a for instance you know, the if processing or that type of thing. but really it's about engaging with the public, particularly those folks that we engage with on sixth street that need help. you know, this is two weeks in the making and one of those weeks there was really had a lot of pause on everybody's personnel for the nba all-star and the chinese new year parade with this really i would say this week is really kind of a test of what this is going to

look like. some of the collaborative partners are public health corps homeless and supportive housing. the human services agency journey home has a has a table out there. if people want to reconnect to their support, you were at whatever city they're from. of course public works the fire department sheriff's p.d. we're all we all have a stake in this. >> so far there have been hundreds of engagements. there have been just in one week there was i want to say the number is somewhere around 270 engagements where people were connected with, you know, some type of medical services including treatment on the streets, addict of services, that type of thing. there is an enforcement component of this when people are dealing drugs and or using drugs in the streets, you know there is for the youth there's several avenues. you know, we're trying to get people to help just like we did with the mayor. but for the blatant open air repeat at use we will enforce

and we have enforce we've arrested drug dealers in this effort and we have a dedicated group of officers that are out on foot beat to support this effort. so so far what we're seeing and what we're hearing is there had been some street conditions, improvements. we're very early on this and i want to just emphasize that this is not just a police thing. this is really a whole holistic approach and i know, commissioner, you've been very, you know, very down in on what else are we doing besides enforcement. so that public health touches is a big part of this and so far we've had like i said in one week we've had over 200 people. i think the number is to 70 to 70 range that actually have had that public health touch. so that's very, very encouraging and i think we're going to see how this works. and the whole idea is is nimble enough that if it works we can

replicate this in other parts of the city as is the hope. >> and are there specific outcomes or treatment beds that are being allocated to this effort in addition to what is already made available through the different partnerships? >> yes. yes. in the in the sense that for instance some of the homeless outreach teams that are working in that sixth street quarter and that includes mission in that area that has some challenges too. >> so they have been able to place a number of people and get shelter beds for them and you know, we have these in other parts of the city so i say yes and i'll put a asterisks by that but they definitely when they're out there they have habit beds available for people that are willing to take advantage of that. so they're also what mayor laurie i believe just last week announced that

there's a new stabilization center coming online is not a is not a significant amount of beds but it will be a help to have another now facility where people can go when they need that type of service. so we're hoping that that will be online in a month or two no later than to hopefully but that was announced last week as well. but so we've had some some some good fortune with beds being available at this point that's really positive development there. i appreciate the update. i do know that we had postponed a conversation around the partnership that it has with some of the dispatch teams and some of the support that you provide to those folks that are doing enforcement and citations for, you know, the public benders. and so i would love if we could to lapse this new effort since it seems similar as far as

interdepartmental collaboration efforts and i will submit a request and hopefully we could get a presentation on this to not only understand better what the recent impact has been but what the long term goals will be and if there is going to be some replication. i know that 63 the mission would be a site where i think there is a lot of support to be offered so thank you for that update. >> those are my only questions. appreciate it. is there any member of the public has any public comment regarding line item three do you support please approach the podium. >> beautiful. so about from jesus the report was good. yeah it's concise everything considering the tripura you know of course. >> so what do we get? it's interesting because you mentioned the chinese new year is very interesting because i declare the the big revolution

started on the last day of the year of the dragon. i didn't know i guess yeah, that's it now we are on the year of the snakes so you better make sure because somebody is going to have to take care of the snakes and there are plenty of them so that's very i'm not too good with snakes. i don't know because every one of us we're going to have to take care of a specific species and it's done for mandate of five years. no exception is by drawing you get this one about sorry now if you committed crimes you see you're going to have some animals which are not necessarily attractive but we have to take care of all of them anyway so that's making it sort of a joke never mind but it's important because this is the future you mean i like to

use the overhead is always i come here concerning my son aubrey at macassar jr who was murdered august 14, 2006 i am glad to hear that homicides are down now and that the tension can be put on our children on cold cases and unsolved cases. i am praying that and i'm believing one of my son is one of those persons. i do have my investigator but i know he was out for surgery. >> i bring these names of the people that former mayor gavin newsom say he know who killed my child. he names addresses, names and one is thomas hannibal paris moffet, andrew badu, jason thomas, acne hunter and marcus

carter. >> one is deceased. i bring these pictures of unsolved homicides that are not solved. i bring this picture of my son that i stand over thinking about one day will i get justice for my child? >> this is what the perpetrators left me a lifeless body versus that smile you saw earlier on the other paper people ask me why did i so these pictures all the time but if i come in here and i didn't have these pictures and talked you wouldn't understand what i'm going through. >> so i show you what i'm going through. he has siblings, he has sisters, he has nieces, he has nephews that he will never see the nephews and aunt they would never see their uncle again. i will never see my son again. this is all i have.

this is all they left me with. so i'm hoping that things will change and that max carter over stone with that that initiative or the unsolved homicides and pain tipsters will follow through. >> thank you. >> notice the end the public comment line item for directors reporter report on recent activities and announcements executive director henderson thank you. >> as you know the audit is an ongoing process so there will be periodic updates on the audits that have happened in the past but for audits that are coming in the future that are audit director steve flaherty has sent out notifications both to the chief and to the commission secretary this week to announce the new audit that's coming up on use

of force. the regular use of force audit is as you know, mandated by charter and that process involves us reaching out to our stakeholders including the police commission to ensure that relevant perspectives are always considered and we will continue in that process. but that's what it is. that's the notification and you'll hear more about it in the future as that process unfolds as it has in the past specifically with use of force. >> we also brought in three new interns now for the spring semester. they've been integrated into our investigation teams and with our policy unit as a heads up we are accepting applications now for the summer internship program award winning summer internship program and would appreciate commissioners for you guys and the department to spread the word and information if you have interested parties that are interested in working with us this week and our investigator and our investigations unit opened 18

new cases and closed 15 cases since the last commission meeting. the top allegation this week was for conduct unbecoming i think in the notification we sent out it was there's an error and what that classification was so it's not neglect of duty. it was for conduct unbecoming. again, these are allegations that came into the office. we currently have 19 investigations that have been open for more than 270 days and of those 19 investigations, 16 of those investigations are told there are currently four cases that are pending with the police commission waiting for resolution and 103 cases that are pending resolution with the chief's office here this evening. and the commission room is a senior investigator who is available in case there are issues that come up during this evening's commission and if folks need to get in contact

with dpa directly the website is s.f. gov dot org forward slash dpa and the phone number is (415) 241-7711. this concludes my remarks and i will reserve my remaining commentary to agenda items that may relate to the work at the dpa. okay sergeant any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding a line item for the dpa director's report please approach the podium. there is no public comment line item five commission reports discussion and possible action commission president's report commissioners reports in commission announcements and scheduling of items identified for consideration at a future commission meeting commission

commissioner benedict thank you president elias just a few items from my report. >> first i wanted to wish my fellow commissioners member the public black history month. there's a lot of great programing happening by the city and various organizations and i'm proud that our city continues to recognize this important recognition. like chief scott said last week i was over the weekend at the chinese new year parade we had great turnout, great weather and people were in really good spirits and i want to commend the department for the exceptional staffing challenges for the parade and the all-star game and additionally i'll be commenting on the next line item for district boundaries so i will save my comments for that one. that's my report. >> thank you. >> any other hands on the dais? all right, sergeant i two quick

things so that's okay. >> we're looking for the hand. great i my report will be brief. chief, i wanted to follow up on an email that i sent. >> i've been looking for the community policing annual reports on the website and i cannot locate them and i don't believe the commission has received one in the last couple of years. >> is there a status update on that? no. commissioner, you said you sent an email on that. >> oh yeah. i certainly mailed to a i believe is a civil czar may have been pretty yourself prior to meeting with them when i had a conversation around measurable objectives and some of the metrics that have been referenced in both the dgo revision and the strategic community policing plan which makes references to those annual reports but we have not

received one and since my time on the commission i'll follow up with you i mean i'll follow up with the commission on that. >> thank you. you know it's really important obviously as we are in an evidence based kind of world to to publicly and transparently help the community understand what it is that we are intending to impact upon when we invest our resources in whatever direction you do. >> and i know that those community policing of both the district plan and the efforts that go on behalf of the community engagement division are important in our engagement with community, improving our relationship to and obviously as we know the more ears and people we have on the street to have confidence in our department to report both incidents and to contribute to solving crimes i think is is

one of the reasons why the community policing dgo and strategic plan are so important. so i would love to obtain that information and once that dgo is up for a vote i hope that we can have some community input into that process. the other question i had was with regard to input as i was working on the investiga into social media dgo previously janell heywood and now jermaine jones working with the brennan center and many partners in the community around this social investigative social media dgo they provided some feedback that went to the legal department and i believe we are expecting some kind of comments or feedback is there a projected timeline for when that will be provided to us?

>> commissioner my understanding is there is a video being written that i have not seen yet the department was working on its video. my understanding there was another video being written and i don't know who who all is participating in that but i have not seen it. so the comments i don't know if those are the same comments that you're referring to. >> i'm assuming that they would be i know that jermaine jones provided that feedback at some point and maybe up tobar of last year and we were waiting for or we are waiting for the legal department to have an update on whether any of those recommendations are going to be incorporated adopted or whether there are any concerns with the recommendation. so any information that can be provided to either jermaine, myself or the commission would be really appreciated. i know there was a lot of work that was put into that effort

in meeting with community partners to obtain those best practices and those are my two main questions and updates any i know that i sound like a broken record but you know in i believe december of 22 when i first started working on the digital 701 the juvenile dg and we started talking about the pre-booking program you had optimistically mystically projected a three month completion timeline. we're now in almost year three. do we have any update on a launch date for a pre-booking program? well what remains i think you mentioned last week that there's going to be another meeting with judge chin. we actually have the draft of

the mean at the draft. we've written everything it's been sent out to i think you as well as the collaborative partners on what we want to go with basically and as you stated last week, you know just in at some recommendations that i believe we can incorporate without many changes being made. so i don't think that's going to be an issue that slows it down. i don't know that we got total agreement with some of our partners such as juvenile probation, but we have a draft that we're comfortable with that we want to move forward with. thank you for that. my understanding is that judge chen does not necessarily believe that the judicial branch of san francisco actually needs to be involved with the program. that was my interpretation. he offered to meet mainly to discuss how we can incorporate some of the traffic court

referrals for juveniles into that. so i don't know whether you are saying that that's the reason we're not launching or is the launch not taking place because the juvenile probation department and community partners haven't necessarily agreed to the terms that you detailed in that project the proposed mou? >> no, i'm not saying that the judges or the hold up at all. i did part of the reason we wanted to make sure we talk to the judges we do believe that the courts has or the judge has some insight that can be valuable. as you know, we've consulted with other cities who have successful programs including los angeles and one of the things that they recommended to us is make sure that you sit down with the juvenile court, the presiding judge to pick their brains and get their insight and in l.a. i know they meet with the judge at least annually maybe similarly annually to just give a status

on what the program is doing, how if any effects on the courts and other things. so that was the spirit behind talking to the judge. the judge is not going to hold the program up one way or another but we did feel that it was in the best interest of what we're trying to do to sit down with the judge and have that conversation in terms of the juvenile probation department and there's just some some issues not not deal working issues but some issues that we just don't agree with but it should not stop us from going forward. at the end of the day they get to handle their cases as they handle them and we get to do at least our part of this the way we think we need to proceed and i don't think there is a whole lot of conflict with that. it's just we don't agree on some of the the back end stuff that we had suggested that they don't agree with. so that's where we are and as you know it's taken a whole lot of input and process and back

and forth to get to this point. but i think we as far as we can take it before we launch perhaps we can agenda is this and have a more thorough discussion because i think it seems like it's right. thank you. yeah i'd appreciate that. thank you for that update chief. i look forward to that conversation with judge chen and hopefully we could clear any of the remaining hurdles and get this program launched for our young people. thank you all. so that's my report. thank you, sergeant. >> any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item five please approach the podium. there's no public comment line item six presentation and discussion speeds district boundaries discussion and possible action. >> commissioner benedicto thank you president elias i'm going to tee this up a little bit and then i hand it over to director mcguire for my fellow commissioners, as you know we're required by city charter to consider revised maps for

speed district boundaries on a regular basis. so this was the undertaking of that process. i wanted to first thank and acknowledge the many people who worked on this process for a while over a year they were divided into a number of different groups. i do encourage members of the public to look at the posted materials that includes the report as well as the maps under consideration. first i want to acknowledge our bridge consulting and training which was the vendor that assisted us with the logistics of this process. in addition there were a number of teams that were assembled that were very integral to this process. so one was the executive steering committee president elias asking me to sit on that committee. in addition from the department of emergency management we had executive director mary ellen carroll as well as director robert smuts. we had sophia hayward from the office of the city administrator natasha mitchell from the comptroller's office from sfd, catherine mcguire pete walsh david was our and

the chief. so i want to thank the members of the steering committee and the people who filled in for them when they couldn't make it. additionally there was an internal technical group there was a subject matter expert working group composed of deputy chief julian ng, commander nicole jones, commander derek lou commander derek jackson commander urban tero captain jack hart and captain chris canning. and finally the sfpd project team led by director zach director mcguire who is here with us tonight as well as director diana roach, jason cunningham, carl nikita and maria accountants who wanted to make sure to acknowledge those folks and also to set the stage of what we're going to be hearing tonight to my fellow commissioners, this will be the first of a number of of meetings and solicitations will have on this subject after speaking with our deputy city attorney. i want to talk a little bit about process. so under the process we're required to consider the report and recommendations which is what we are all doing tonight to kick off the process and our

required to forward the proposed the proposal to adjust any boundaries to the mayor and board of supervisors as well as post the proposal at the commission office outside the commission's regular meeting location on the city's website and send a copy to the public library. so the conclusion of the presentation tonight i'm going to make a motion that we do that we're not making any final adoption decisions that we're simply forwarding the proposed report to the board of supervisors and the mayor and posting as required by the charter that will start a 90 day clock which again after consultation with the deputy city attorney will run from our vote tonight. so final action can be taken until 90 days from our action within those 90 days the commission is permitted to hear public comment which i'm sure we'll here tonight and over the course of the 90 days hold additional hearings as needed and make revisions to the map as needed. and starting at the 90 day mark we can finally adopt or continue to discuss as needed.

already there's been i know there's some people here for public comment tonight. i've spoken to multiple members of the board of supervisors that would like to make either written or spoken public comment along with members of their community to be heard as well in the course 90 days. and i also want to acknowledge we received the commission's already received some correspondence from different organizations including the lower polk community benefit district as well as a joint letter from the central city sro collaborative u.s. law staff the tenderloin community benefit district laura polk neighborhoods and the latina. and so i want to thank those organizations for being heard. >> i spoke to director maguire is going to have this presentation. i think the goal is for this presentation to be a little bit high level and then we'll bring this back for fellow commissioners when there are other public commenters and to answer any follow up questions. so there's anything that you want to hear from exactly. director mcguire please raise it or shall have it ready to take back when we come to a

subsequent presentation. so well with that i'll hand it over to executive director mcguire and we'll make a motion to forward when we're done with that. >> one other thing it's my understanding that the consultation the consultant that worked with the department on this project is also available via zoom currently so if any commissioners have any questions or want any follow up that is also available to us in addition to director mcguire's presentation you all are just covering my presentation for me thing i think you go ahead. >> good evening president elias members of the commission director henderson, chief scott members of the public i'm catherine mcguire. i'm the executive director of the strategic management bureau of the san francisco police department. i'm here to present the analysis and process efforts of police district to station boundaries and the resulting proposed recommendations. i'm going to start with just kind of a high level what this

presentation will talk about this evening and again we can come back and talk more about more of the details as you all would like to hear more. i'll give you a little bit of background although commissioner benedicto did pretty much cover the legislative recap on this effort. >> the mall talk about project store goals structure the methodology we used all of the data input that we gathered and then show you the draft recommendations and why where how they evolved and where we landed and why and then we'll talk about next steps. >> next slide. thank you so first a little bit of background. >> this is some of the language from oh sorry back on this is some of the language from the san francisco administrative code. i won't spend a lot of time on this. the work plan we needed to

submit last year to the commission we did and then a subsequent one subsequent year later there is an official report which is what we're talking about tonight and then the additional information in the administrative code it included required data and factors to consider and those are listed there on the slide and they are available in the report online project goals again from the legislation boundaries should operate to maximize the effectiveness and of police operations and the efficient use of police resources and so from that the project had primary considerations of equitable resource allocation stakeholders engagement and data driven analysis. >> as you can see we had sort of these five inputs as we were

moving through this these data and analyzing it. we had an executive steering committee and sf pd working committee and the community kind of all working with these iterations of maps and which were input from the arc bridge consulting team and the usb pd project team and as commissioner elias president elias mentioned that arc bridge consultants are online this evening and can answer any questions you might have about the mapping work that they did . >> so going you all have seen this slide before in a previous presentation. this is just sort of what our work plan was and sort of shows all of the various bodies and this iterative process of talking about how we produced a map went back to the groups, got feedback, thoughts changes, produced another map and etc..

>> so moving on to the methodology. stakeholder interviews were a big first step and we the project team sat with every member of the board of supervisors at the time every district station captain, members of the command staff and we got external agency input and lessons learned from things like the supervisory redistricting effort and previous iterations of the district boundaries analysis and then we are our contractors gathered a very large amount of data and they started mapping so they mapped population data new new proposed developments calls for service data incident data, neighborhood maps and street center lines. of course are included in most

gis maps of streets and so those were also mapped and so you'll see these slides are small obviously these are not intended to be maps that you can actually read. >> they're just intended to give you a flavor of how many different inputs and what all of the information that we absorbed was so as you can see there's a population by majority race population by dispatch, by police dispatch, by police district excuse me plan developments and on the next slide we looked at the top 20 local locations of calls for service heat map just lots of slices and dices of the data to just see make sure that nothing popped out out of the ordinary and then on the next slide although this is not a map you

have to map the data to then create this table so this is where incident data sort of falls out in among the districts among the police districts for 2019 through 2023. and so i don't want to say finally because throughout this we were getting community input on the consultants website. they had set up a website dedicated to this district boundaries input process and and so the public could actually go and create their own map and we got a couple a few of those and took them into consideration as you can see we also and so you can see that screenshot of the map on the top there on the top right and then below that you'll see a community survey that was also translated and one of the translations that's shown as a screenshot there.

so we included community meetings of course you all were helpful in engaging the community by announcing it commission meetings and station newsletters contained information for each of the districts asians and we asked our board members of the board to announce it in their newsletters as well. >> we also had a few focus groups some additional public hearings that were both virtual and in-person and then of course as i mentioned the map making input from the website which brings us to the maps. >> so there was an initial map there which was an iterative process in and of itself between a subject matter and working group that met with their cpd project team and art bridge consulting and talked through all of that input data and came up with this series of

maps that then after discussion and back and forth in discussion with the district captains in particular they landed at this patrol preferred map and then from that went to the the executive committee and the executive committee had some concerns in particular about southern station's workload going up. >> and what you don't see on the calls for service map or really the incident data is the level of activity in southern which is that the calls for service sure they have a fairly large volume and maybe a fairly large volume of incidents but what you don't see are the two major sports venues there that increase the population by 20

to 40,000 any time there's an event. >> so that is a huge increase in population that's a huge increase in service that's demanded of southern station and so the executive team didn't feel like that was a way to that that was going to serve southern station or the community there very well was expanding their scope so significantly and so when and we'll talk about this probably at the next meeting i'll show how the calls for service would have changed had that had the southern taken all of that look, those calls for service you just see that then southern becomes the most busy station of all the stations and then you add on top of that the to venues and it just would have been too much for one station and so going from from the patrol preferred to the

recommended map there was an effort to distribute that workload a little bit more not only from southern but balancing park a little bit more and just trying to make the workload a little bit more equitable across the stations. >> and then finally see the proposed map really was a function of after that iteration with the semi working group and the captains and everyone began to feel like even the recommended map was a bit much it was it may have balanced workload a bit better but ultimately without when we are so low on staffing and having to rearrange staffing and reshuffle it so much that it would it would not necessarily benefit the department or the districts to feel like they had less on the other side of this analysis and

implementation. so these changes benefit the department but don't require resources adjustments and that is what the final map represents. okay so you'll see the final map there with five major changes and then which we can sit with for a second or move on to next steps. >> pause. i think you should move on to next steps and then we can ask questions as we make presentations not to disturb your flow. >> okay. and actually commissioner benedicto already covered this so we don't even need to cover it. he's very helpful like that. that's it commissioner. >> he thank you very much there

presidents and allies are just going to have a question though. >> i know the mayor made an announcement 12 days ago regarding the san francisco hospitality zone task force and and the downtown district. what impact would that play on this map here? >> so on i'll answer that. so thank you. is there a commissioner? none. none really. the hospital his own right now is two components to that. one part of that zone is assigned to central station and that's the union square part and soma piece of the hospitality zone is actually assigned to southern. they have to communicate in order to coordinate their work and make sure that they're on the same page in terms of you know what what they're doing which is addressing a lot of the street conditions and

problem solving it has been proposed that that zone be made a district station that actually came up in some of the community conversations but did not we did not move forward. that is just right now that the department could not absorb a new district station with the staffing challenges that we have and facility challenges that we have and the like so it won't impact it at all. i mean that task force can be moved if those problems go away. the task force can then be absorbed into the rest of the department or the stations that they're at to maintain the effort because i'm looking at that that zone it's you got central station sutter and then you have tenderloin two and then northern i mean that that's the end i guess different captains involved and then different resources. >> so are you is it just a combined the resource of

officers and 2 to 1 unit or is that going to divide it back into different stations? >> yes. bass yes, sir. they still report to the captains so the captain of southern still has the reach of you know, the control of those officers and what they do in their work. but they're coordinating with the the central station component of the task force. so the work is coordinated and that those officers that is their job to be dedicated to the that those that specific area. so we have to coordinate in order to make it work but it's working right now and it won't it won't impact any of that boundary analysis work that's been done. would it be possible to have a commander in regards to that handle that hospitality zone too as well? >> yeah, there is the commander

that is in charge of the the metro division which is commander derek jackson is very involved in the overseeing of the work. and then there's also you know ,another piece of this you know, we have to coordinate with the whole direct command because a lot of that work just flows from the demak areas to the hospitality area. so it all has to be coordinated and there's a commander over that too, as you know is that commander derek lou? >> and then a final question is how many more officers will be added to their hospitality zone? i have a figure in my ear right now. >> we've already had it, lieutenant. a sergeant and seven officers for the central component the inmates are for the southern component of the hospitality task force. the central component has a lieutenant, i think sergeant and 14 officers i believe. >> and that can be adjusted

depending on what is going on like for during the holiday season we increased the deployment in union square during special events like we did on this past weekend. we increased the deployment in the summer with the mosconi event so it can be adjusted depending on what's going on. >> thank you very much. thank you very much there chief. i know you're going to do excellent job on this. >> thank you. thank you, sir. commissioner clay, thank you, madam president. first of all, excellent job. i mean you took a lot of time and to put this together i'm taking a look at all the things you did and all the factors you used to get to this point. and so what i'm looking at and you said based upon your final proposal, this map, it's not going to require any adjustment in terms of resources although you did lengthen or you widen or enlarge some of these districts. so that's got to be when you look at where it started for the command wanted you have and you come to here and the resources are going to still be equitable but you've enlarged

districts so in that in that composition of things how did you come to these? how did the conclusion in terms of how the resource is would be well so this is more of a of a our our districts are currently not i'm not equitably distributed with their their workloads but we are staffed we're we've set the staffing and settled kind of the dust has settled on where the staffing is for those districts and we change them all the time and the assistant chief and fob chief are constantly reviewing that every every transfer they're looking at where staffing is for every dissertation these adjustments are kind of just pain points mostly that are or just good good sense. so for instance in park station this is labeled change e park

station in richmond there are some permanent concrete barriers that make it harder for richmond to respond to that section of the park and so we just shifted it over to park. it's easier for them to respond so we put it just moved the boundary a little similarly northern oh the change labeled d i believe this is where the facade of a building sits. the address sits in one station and the actual building sits in the other station and so we just change that to have the whole building sit in the one station so things that are minor that don't really require a ton of staffing actually the d change may actually require a little bit of adjustment there but that can happen, you know over time or in a transfer

rather than a big hefty analysis that has to happen with every change and every district and all the sort of churn and and turnover and turmoil that would go with those kinds of changes. >> but this this will suffice for now. so as it's set up as we go forward and hopefully we start getting more officers on line, the chief and staff command staff will readjust and yeah patrol people out to these different districts will need that additional help. >> yes, sir. so it's all set up that way, right? we can change boundaries as we need to. this is this is mandated a minimum ceiling, a floor not a ceiling. >> and so the final question as we look at this here and it's going to have the posting period in this 90 days madam president, will we each week have an agenda item for people to talk and ask about this? you were saying and commissioner benedicto about

that is that going to have a calendared spot every every week so someone they can have public comment on this posting as as the weeks go by? it's a good question. i don't think we've worked out the exact mechanics. i would expect that most weeks it would not be agenda as a line item and thus would be eligible for general public comment. since general public comment you're allowed to address for anything not on the agenda if there's a specific take back question that's anyone wanted director mcguire to come for we the agenda is it or if there was let's say there was a flurry of community interest and interest and elected officials such that like i said i think i want to explicitly calendar at least once sometime in march because i do think some of the groups that wrote and then some of the elected officials want to organize a response at least one to that nine days it will be agenda is i don't think we need to agenda that every week so but but members of the public would be welcome when not agenda is to comment on general comment or to provide written comment or maybe in the posting we should include that and for the general comments section this

is available for general comment section until we have an a specific agenda item on for the week. >> yes i plan to agenda is it for the next meeting in march? for the first meeting in march so to either be first meeting or second meeting in march as an actual agenda and gender ized item so that we can discuss it because my understanding is there are a few questions outstanding. >> additionally this has been posted on our website so the community can comment on our website the commission website with any questions or concerns. i don't believe that we've received any thus far but if we do receive one the commission office will collect them and then notify the commission. okay. >> so they can they can post on the website versus coming to the actual meeting and doing that but that we make that available to them they can they know that i think we may even want to if we could posted to social media our commissions social media to see if there are any additional public comments or chief are you going to be have you done social media outreach on this? >> we did, yeah.

>> yes. a while back. yeah. yeah. thank you. thank and mr. benedict obviously making a motion. >> oh, yes. okay. all right. i'll make my motion then we'll go to public comment mr. allen okay. >> all right. thank you very much. executive director mcguire. i do want to highlight some things that director mcguire said which was that there's been public comment throughout this process. there was not a large amount of public comment i would say, but it was definitely vigorous and it was it was incorporated every stage of this process. so i'm going to make a motion before we go to public comments. also i emailed the written version of this to commission staff so you don't have to try to take down my fast talking. so my motion is that pursuant to section two a .86 of the

charter the city and county of san francisco the commission has considered the chief's report and recommends actions as summarized and agreed to and the speed boundary analysis of district stations project reports specifically the proposed map on page 84 of the report and hereby forwards this proposal to the mayor and the board of supervisors to adjust station boundaries. >> the commission will also post the proposal at the commission's offices outside the commission's regular meeting area the commission section of the city's website and will send a copy to the public library. public comment shall be open for a minimum of 90 days and final action shall be taken no earlier than may 20th 2025. >> okay. one thing i did want to clarify before i went to public comment is that for director mcgowan, the chief i was correct there it is the proposed map on it on page 84 which is the chief and the department's recommendation that we adopt, correct? >> i believe so.

one second it's also in the presentation and that very last slide. >> yes. yes. page 84 and it's correct. >> right. and thank you commissioner clay for second the motion. >> thank you. if any member of the public would like to make public comment regarding line item me line item six please approach the podium. >> good evening commissioners chief scott paul allen. during this process i had submitted comments urging serious consideration of moving part of the castro from mission to park. for reasons that we don't need to go into. >> indeed that was that particular recommendation was part of was included in three of the recommendations within the report before you including i believe the penultimate one and then in the recommendation and the recommended one that falls off. but my point is not too much to critique that because i don't really feel competent to do so. rather the reasons stated for

that and i draw your attention to the last page of the of the full document which is page 89 i guess or 86 where there is a simply a declaration from the consultant that the reason the final recommendation is for the proposed one is before you essentially boils down to resource is that we don't have enough officers and therefore we don't think we can adjust boundaries. to me as a declaration that is not persuasive passive i think we need a fuller explanation of why that is a case. you have a deficit of x number of officers. they obviously could be shuffled around to just a different district stations along with an adjustment of those district station lines. again, i'm not advocating for that because i don't feel competent to judge that just as i don't feel competent to judge whether it was right to not move part of castro from mission to park. but i think the we're entitled

to a better explanation, a more fulsome explanation of the nexus, if you will, between the deficiency in the number of officers on the one hand and the unwillingness or reluctance to change boundaries among district stations. >> thank you for i thank you commissioners for thank you. my name is chris sharman lower port community benefit district. thank you for acknowledging our letter submitted yesterday and thank you for acknowledging the letter submitted by a number of organizations that i'm proud to be part of working with the status quo is not working for the tenderloin and the tenderloin in adjacent communities such as myself and laura polk. the proposed map as we acknowledged in our letter, does not work for us. while there are some small tweaks that that that make some incremental improvement overall

we we found a much better match with the with the with the recommended map in previous iterations we you know to find to find to to build towards equity and improvement it takes work and it takes effort and you know it'll take some redistribution of resources and to get there we need to work together if i can have the overhead real briefly this this is the this is the heat map and it shows right here we have the intersection of three police districts in this corner of the tenderloin and lower polk northern central and and tenderloin and that's where the highest crime area the highest 911 call areas are the community has to work with three police districts and that's that's a tall order that's both calls the three districts have to respond to but that's three districts that

the community has to interact with. larkin streets a border that's problematic. there's alleys that have two police districts you know, just moving it to post street doesn't accomplish our needs. i look forward to interacting with your honorable commission over the next 90 days will come up. we'll advocate we look forward to working with you. we look forward to you. listen to us and thank you so much for for for taking the time to hear from us and i really do look forward to advocating over the next 90 days. >> good evening commissioners. i'm alice rogers and i am a 30 year resident in southern station. >> i too did send you a letter which wasn't acknowledged but i and other neighbors from our southern district did address you. >> we strongly support your final report.

we want to commend your staff for the work that they did. our direct contact was maryam mcgowan and we especially want to appreciate the depth of information that she brought to the public hearings that she conducted. >> we were quite distressed. >> did i say that i am the president of the south beach rincon mission bay neighborhood association which comprises much of southern district and we were quite distressed by the first map for the reasons that director mcguire laid out. i won't reiterate but we were thankful through the public process which we engaged in and which we the neighborhood association broadcast to our constituency. so they could individually interact with your maps and give their input. we were very pleased to see the maps moved to the final

iteration and feel that it they more equitably addressed the workload and our southern station captain martin seems to agree. >> thank you so much for your work on this. >> thank you miss rogers. i didn't want to fail to acknowledge your correspondence as well as well as the correspondence of bettina cohen as well that was sent to the commission. >> thank you. >> good evening, commissioners. my name is pretty but again i work for children housing clinic. >> i always see three programs central city sro collaborative levels latina and see a program. >> i remember being here ten years ago. in fact 11 years ago fighting for equitable district tenant blue station district. we did not win that battle last year. last time because we had to compromise we were asking until

up to larkin. >> we were trying not to have a westfield mall and saw the market but we did get all that . >> and as chris shulman pointed out, i mean i don't know why we are seeing what we are doing right now the calls of service right now. >> but i think this is a ten year map so we have to look for the future how the district will be for the future and including the present but the future also and we are seeing movement of issues that is in different parts of the district surrounding tunnel and station. and i would highly encourage we are not happy with the last iteration based on calls for service. you have gotten all our concerns. >> so i would highly recommend you reach out to us because we are not happy with what was proposed to you all today and recommended rather we prefer the map that we recommended in our in our letter. that's what we think and we

have reached out to several community members. not all community members have access to internet and tell them and calls and coming here so you should definitely do your part of reaching out to people who live in the community rather than just expect them to reach out to you. >> thank you. good evening, commissioners and chief scott. my name is eric roselle and i'm a long term resident of the tenderloin and director of safe programs at the tenderloin community benefit district. i'm here to express strong support for spd's proposed tenderloin station boundary changes outlined in the past map integration and the patrol preferred map that yes the tenderloin has seen some progress but challenges remain especially late at night and early morning. as clearly indicated in the heat map, the current boundaries and recommendations stretch too far east and south encompassing encompassing areas

like westfield mall and soma. this pulls tenderloin officers away from the core of the tenderloin where they're needed most to address serious crimes like shootings, assault robberies and our party's persistent open air drug market. shifting the boundaries to north to market street to north to sutter street and west and east boundaries between mason and vance will allow officers to focus their resources where crimes are occurring most. the tenderloin furthermore the current northern boundary at geary street is insufficient. illicit activity has simply shifted north to sutter street creating dangerous pockets of lawlessness in the alleys between larkin and van ness. the proposed extension to venice has shown in the patrol preferred map and final proposed map is crucial and eliminates the confusing and ineffective larkin street border which currently splits blocks and alleys between

precincts and hindering effective policing and response times. this change will finally allow for coordinated policing efforts and streamline responses and the critical areas. these boundaries adjustments are not just lines on a map. remember this please. they're about equitable and effective policing. they're about allowing the tenderloin to truly serve santana. >> thank you. >> faster than you think. yeah. >> good evening. my name is greg johnson and i'm with csr c central for city sro collaborative. i also know chief scott there. good evening. i'd like to echo the comments by petipa taki which csr see we have to look towards the future . things are changing. previous provisions that i'm sure may possibly may not have been taken into account of what

services the city wants to dump in our area mental health etc. . all of these things have to be considered. i mean that's what a committee at what you're implying is all about equitability. >> we can't just nilly do what we're getting ready to do. we're talking about ten years here. that's a long time. thank you. >> thank you to those that made public comment, something i wanted to say is that i think every single commissioner here takes very seriously this responsibility and and will want to hear from as much of the community in this 90 days as as we can. for anyone who knows me or worked with me on when we did

our projects ops policy i had a policy and a commitment president weiss knows this that i said yes to every community meeting that was taken whether it was zoom or in person a group of 50 or 3 people at a community center and i will make that commitment on this too. i know there are populations that we're not reaching here. if anyone here or anyone who considers this would like to and as president likes to point out, the two minutes goes fast and the concerns of your community are way too big to be limited to two minutes and so if any of your organizations if any member of your organizations, additional members of the community want to speak to me, i will commit that i will say yes and we'll find the time to hear your concerns and i will be the department to sending someone to come along to see dr. mcbride raise your hand. she may live to regret that but we will come to those meetings. we will hear you out. i can't promise. in fact, the one thing i can promise is that not everyone's going to be happy the end of this we passed a policy last

week where president last rightly asked judge clay for that for the adage that, you know, a good compromise is when everyone's disappointed about the same amounts but i promise you will be heard and your concerns will be taken seriously and if changes need to be made they'll be made and if and we will look very closely at that. so please. my email address is on the commission website and i individual commission email address i will i will say yes to any meeting so that is true. >> thank you also to i as you see when you send letters to the commission staff they're excellent. they make sure that we get them and they catalog them and keep them in that place so you can also send it to them as well if there are additional questions you have clarity you want we have the department, we have the consultants and we will ask the questions that you want answered or want answers to so feel free to just send them in as the commissioner benedict of state stated, this is the first of a few that we will have any hands sergeant all right on the

>> after my fire in my apartment and losing everything, the red cross gave us a list of agencies in the city to reach out to and i signed up for the below-market rate program. i got my certificate and started applying and won the housing lottery. [♪♪♪] >> the current lottery program began in 2016. but there have been lot rows that have happened for affordable housing in the city for much longer than that. it was -- there was no standard practice. for non-profit organizations

that were providing affordable housing with low in the city, they all did their lotteries on their own. private developers that include in their buildings affordable units, those are the city we've been monitoring for some time since 1992. we did it with something like this. where people were given circus tickets. we game into 291st century in 2016 and started doing electronic lotteries. at the same time, we started electronic applications systems. called dalia. the lottery is completely free. you can apply two ways. you can submit a paper application, which you can download from the listing itself. if you apply online, it will take five minutes. you can make it easier creating an account.

to get to dalia, you log on to housing.sfgov.org. >> i have lived in san francisco for almost 42 years. i was born here in the hayes valley. >> i applied for the san francisco affordable housing lottery three times. >> since 2016, we've had about 265 electronic lotteries and almost 2,000 people have got their home through the lottery system. if you go into the listing, you can actually just press lottery results and you put in your lottery number and it will tell you exactly how you ranked. >> for some people, signing up for it was going to be a challenge. there is a digital divide here and especially when you are trying to help low and very low income people.

so we began providing digital assistance for folks to go in and get help. >> along with the income and the residency requirements, we also required someone who is trying to buy the home to be a first time home buyer and there's also an educational component that consists of an orientation that they need to attend, a first-time home buyer workshop and a one-on-one counseling session with the housing councilor. >> sometimes we have to go through 10 applicants before they shouldn't be discouraged if they have a low lottery number. they still might get a value for an available, affordable housing unit. >> we have a variety of lottery programs. the four that you will most often see are what we call c.o.p., the certificate of preference program, the dthp

which is the displaced penance housing preference program. the neighborhood resident housing program and the live worth preference. >> i moved in my new home february 25th and 2019. the neighborhood preference program really helped me achieve that goal and that dream was with eventually wind up staying in san francisco. >> the next steps, after finding out how well you did in the lottery and especially if you ranked really well you will be contacted by the leasing agent. you have to submit those document and income and asset qualify and you have to pass the credit and rental screening and the background and when you qualify for the unit, you can chose the unit and hopefully sign that lease. all city sponsored affordable

housing comes through the system and has an electronic lottery. every week there's a listing on dalia. something that people can apply for. >> it's a bit hard to predict how long it will take for someone to be able to move into a unit. let's say the lottery has happened. several factors go into that and mainly how many units are in the project, right. and how well you ranked and what preference bucket you were in. >> this particular building was brand new and really this is the one that i wanted out of everything i applied for. in my mind, i was like how am i going to win this? i did and when you get that notice that you won, it's like at first, it's surreal and you don't believe it and it sinks in, yeah, it happened. >> some of our buildings are pretty spectacular. they have key less entry now. they have a court yard where they play movies during the

weekends, they have another master kitchen and space where people can throw parties. >> mayor breed has a plan for over 10,000 new units between now and 2025. we will start construction on about 2,000 new units just in 2020. >> we also have a very big portfolio like over 25,000 units across the city. and life happens to people. people move. so we have a very large number of rerentals and resales of units every year. >> best thing about working for the affordable housing program is that we know that we're making a difference and we actually see that difference on a day-to-day basis. >> being back in the neighborhood i grew up in, it's a wonderful experience. >> it's a long process to get

through. well worth it when you get to the other side. i could not be happier. [♪♪♪] >> right before the game

starts, if i'm still on the field, i look around, and i just take a deep breath because it is so exciting and magical, not knowing what the season holds is very, very exciting. it was fast-paced, stressful, but the good kind of stressful, high energy. there was a crowd to entertain, it was overwhelming in a good way, and i really, really enjoyed it. i continued working for the grizzlies for the 2012-2013 season, and out of happenstance, the same job opened up for the san francisco giants. i applied, not knowing if i would get it, but i would kick myself if i didn't apply. i was so nervous, i never lived

anywhere outside of fridays fridays -- fresno, and i got an interview. and then, i got a second interview, and i got more nervous because know the thought of leaving fresno and my family and friends was scary, but this opportunity was on the other side. but i had to try, and lo and behold, i got the job, and my first day was january 14, 2014. every game day was a puzzle, and i have to figure out how to put the pieces together. i have two features that are 30 seconds long or a minute and a 30 feature. it's fun to put that al together and then lay that out in a way that is entertaining for the fans. a lucky seat there and there, and then, some lucky games that include players. and then i'll talk to lucille,

can you take the shirt gun to the bleachers. i just organize it from top to bottom, and it's just fun for me. something, we don't know how it's going to go, and it can be a huge hit, but you've got to try it. or if it fails, you just won't do it again. or you tweak it. when that all pans out, you go oh, we did that. we did that as a team. i have a great team. we all gel well together. it keeps the show going. the fans are here to see the teams, but also to be entertained, and that's our job. i have wonderful female role models that i look up to here at the giants, and they've been great mentors for me, so i aspire to be like them one day.

renelle is the best. she's all about women in the workforce, she's always in our corner. [applause] >> i enjoy how progressive the giants are. we have had the longer running until they secure day. we've been doing lgbt night longer than most teams. i enjoy that i work for an organization who supports that and is all inclusive. that means a lot to me, and i wouldn't have it any other way. i wasn't sure i was going to get this job, but i went for it, and i got it, and my first season, we won a world series even if we hadn't have won or gone all the way, i still would have learned. i've grown more in the past four years professionally than i think i've grown in my entire

adult life, so it's been eye opening and a wonderful learning >> come shop dine and play. taraval street is open for business. >> this is joey smith at barber lounge. one of the coowners at 19th and taraval and sunset. this establishment came about when me and my brother andy, coowner barber decided to it was time to take

>> my name is andrew england the owner and collector at real old paper. i'm a native to the bay areaismt grew up in oakland, spent high school years here and lived in hawaii about 10 years. moved back shortly. been in san francisco proper now for about 8 years. when i realized i wasn't a dealer anymore in san francisco, i found openings and decided to opening my own store in north beach in 2016. north beach was a great place to start. i got a neighborhood feel from it. i got involved in the community, but as far as business turnover, fisherman's wharf is 2 fold, 3 fold because there are so many more people here. we have been here going on 3 and a half years. i started as a hobbyist. i started collecting movie posters in high school. not originals. just favorite. when i mouved to hawaii there

was a gallery that specialized in viptage posters and that taught me about the variables beyond movies and that is where this is my career path and what iment to do. i with irked for them for 8 years, took a portion of pay in store credit so i built a collection basically and turned it into a brz. business. hobby turns business and forch int. i got bitten by the poster bug it spiraled out of control and i needed to a store to outlet my collection. san francisco has always had a viptage poster dating with 1970 with chicago new york and paris san francisco is a city with a area to buy vintage posters so people appreciate the time capsule and history. all are vintage. most in the store is at least

40 plus years old, some back to the 1800s so we have some 140 years old. they are advertisement,b war propaganda from world war 1 and 2. movie and with travel posters and alcohol and tobaccos. thin pieces of paper meant to last maybe a mujt or 6 weeks. the lowest point was the pandemic. having to close the gallery so i didsant have a web store biltd or outlet and barely a instagram and told all the customers don't buy on line. can't be sure they are authentic or true colors or size or condition. it was very frustrating. it was a struggle until this opportunity presented itself and when i moved into this location on the wharf, there was still nobody here yet. we hadn't officially reopened but i rolled the dice, spent everything i had left to build this place out, and give it one last shot.

it worked out very well. it worked out very well. >> here we have the 1971 for the fight. ali and frazier first meeting. the one first professional loss. there is a lot that appreciate the story and understand the esthetic and message and nuances within the graphic. the champagne [indiscernible] wonderful piece. it carries both styles. it has the [indiscernible] in his garb. he has shoes and fits the earlier periods, but done in the style of art deco and that is what we offer and part of the experience knhing into the store. we will walk through the purchase and explain how we preserved it, what are the imperfections and what does the imagery mean. you have the older story and the newer story, pasted over the top. we will give you all that information. about everything. it may not be your favorite piece until you heard the story. i are think i always had in the

back of my mind a second location outside the state. i dream is tokyo, but i do a lot of consulting in las vegas with pon stars group so thought about opening a shop in las vegas. we like to branch out at some point. we are from here and where the company started and where we'll stay, we may just also open another store. i love being here. this is where my family is, this is where i was raised and not ready to leave that behind cht yes, people are looking for this store and there are fewer and fewer store fronts, brick and mortar like ours that outlet this thing. we offer the experience. i think it is very desirable collective subject matter because we are less and less acustoms. you can pick it while looking at it. examining the flaws and scale and color. you know what you are getting because you get that exact one. poster art is my area of expertise and i have affinity for.
