effective wide city education and enforcement efforts and meanwhile in parallel, i know that individual commissioners are taking pro-active steps to increase safety in their own districts in collaboration with the police departments including a buy lot that weiner is coordinating on san jose avenue, at the i280 off-ramp and including commission lee, district seven meeting this past weekend where the neighbors gave their suggestions for top pedestrian projects ideas. our transportation authority staff were also busy working and meeting with the counter parks at the sfmta the department of public health and the police department to prepare for the upcoming hears at the neighborhood service and safety committee and other venues, i also wanted to congratulate the staff and obtaining a grant that would allow one of our senior planners, pedestrian, safety expert to travel to washington, d.c. to participate in a pedestrian injury prevention action team training program as part of a five-member team representing the state of california. and the team includes the department of health and cal transas well as o

attacks that have been put out in the press against this commission and i think that the individual commissioners may have said stuff in the course of the hearing and think that is okay for the people to have questions, to my knowledge, this commission has not taken a formal request, on this and there has been no action and i think that it is legitimate for people to ask the questions and to dig into the report. and so, that being said, i think that it does not help, the public discourse to attack the commission, or to say, that folks are being unfairly tarnished because we are asking the questions, i think that is our job. and so i am really looking forward to this process and to this discussion, and i really appreciate the different perspectives that the fellow commissioners have on the inspections and on the process and i am interested in the human resources, angle, because, i do know that for other employees and the department, who have been watching this going on, and it has been pretty demoralizing and so, you know, right now, that we are, rebuilding the department back up, and thes really

received an inquiry from the search firm who indicated they made the time to talk to us individually as commissioners, as well as to review this conversation here to take anything and everything that we put out there that we want to see in the process. the application period is expected to be open from the first week of february through the end of february about a four-month period -- >> sorry, four week. i was on a roll, too. >> four week period, and then the goal would be during that subsequent period afterward to go through the process of culling down the process as an iterative process with the search committee and the commission. the idea of the search committee in the past has now been around the idea of two commissioners and the deputy director, the search committee has come together to this point, also has two advisory members in this. and this is a result of these conversations not only commissioner wan and myself and deputy director osman, but two really, i think, individuals that have a lot of insight into the department, into this type of process. and i think they are folks that we really

individuals. >> okay. >> commissioner loftus? >> i think that we are on the right track, as a commissioner gives me more clarity, but i appreciate the feedback that we have gotten so far, and i appreciate the follow through, both by the department and by the advocate to really sort of get at what the heart of the issues are and i think that the department and the chief has represented that in san francisco, we do things differently and we are proud of that, and i think that more transparency where we can and important and i find this report much more helpful to me and i look forward to you guys continuing to work on that but i certainly thank everyone that took the time to come here and follow on this issue because i know that it was a big issue in 2013 i appreciate the work that you have done as well. >> and line item 3, the last part of the presentation regarding the sexual assault dna. >> we will do the public comment afterwards. when we finish the items. >> sexual assault and dna testing. >> thank you. >> good evening, presid
