can he even have a patrol special assistant? patrol special assistants are not in the charter. they are under the guidance of the commission. should we even have patrol special assistants anymore? is it reasonable to have them and we have seen a worker's comp claims. we are part of the police department, it is very ambiguous and problematic. we're back to square one when we have addressed these issues on numerous occasions. we have to look at this, if we even have to have control specialists. you can't expect him to work his beat seven nights a week. lead to major the assistance are not working constantly at the patrol special is not working the beat. we have to make sure that their clients are comfortable with what they are doing. i apologize, but one of the issues i have seen, because of the lack of control, a lot of these things are falling apart. we understand as part of the rules and procedures that they check in when they start their shift. my question to you is, is that happening? >> i am getting daily or weekly logs from the station, i have requested of logs from other

the patrol special needed help because this man was resisting arrest and the patrol special put a handcuff on one arm, the guy broke away and started fighting. and we have the regular patrol officer stepped in to assist him. they used his baton to gain the subjects compliance and we had a control officer stepping in. this is written up by the captain and it is good work for the officer and the patrol special. this patrol special. this is september 8. here we have december 20, 2010. he stopped a truck driver and is outside the perimeter. i do not know if a citizen can use a baton on another person or put him under arrest and try to handcuff him but that was recognized by the captain as great police work on behalf of this patrol special. my concern is, why was that kondracke not outside the parameters of this kind -- but this conduct is? who picks and chooses that? it comes down to what are the parameters? the legal parameters of a legal citizens arrest. >> i can play back to the rules as they apply to the special officer. they're not permitted and he does not get to pick and choose when the

they cannot solely rely on the assistance to conduct the patrol. with my conversation, he admitted he was not working to beat but he stated that he can manage his feet without actively participating. i further a revised him regarding 4.12, its as patrol specials and a half assistance if one more person is qualified had authorized to perform services. the patrol a special, he claims he sent a letter to the lieutenant indicating his medical condition. i did not find any records of that, he did send me a copy indicating his preference. the reason i bring this up is to ask for clarification of the ruling of how it should be interpreted so i could for the proceed with the patrol specialists. they had other professionals working their beats internal lumber -- is no longer active. >> i understand that he is medically unable to work the medically unable to work the beach for a year.

the second one was more favorable for the assistant patrol special hot desert. and ultimately, neither went throughout because they weren't satisfactory. i think you heard assistant patrol special officer indicate what wasn't satisfactory to him. so this is a new day. we can go forward with new negotiations. and so there is that. in terms of my feedback on each of these specifications, that is a different matter. i don't know if that is what you are asking, commissioner marshall, or not. was your question directed the just towards a settlement discussions? >> i don't know that the settlement discussion resolved what she brought up, as all i am saying. she brought up an issue, i don't know of any kind of discussion will deal with that. it is still out there. >> since the commissioners have spent time going through the documentation, her that we move on to our closed session and give the department and the assistant patrol special the opportunity. the chief is here. they can see if there is some headway that you can make, because it is a new day. see if there is g
