then the question on the duties between sfpd who are on board as well as inspectors -- sfpd, are they doing fare inspections as well as their scope of work? that was one of the concerns, where the community felt that that was the prime work they were doing on board, and there were a lot of concerns that the presence was a little bit heavy. although a lot of people in the community what that presence as well, but your answer would be great. >> our primary focus -- our officers that are assigned to mta is simply to ride the lines, have a presence on the lines, and prevent crime on the lines. they assist inspectors with operations. they do not participate in those operations. they are simply there in case they are needed in support of the fare inspectors. the captains to conduct proof of payment operations in their enforcement plans. i would not categorize it as something that we are doing constantly. the books assigned to 78 from the police department are really in a supportive role -- the folks assigned to mta. supervisor avalos: just a follow-up question on that -- when officers are e

in the wake of this event, this incident, i have been working with the mta and sfpd to better understand the policies and programs they have in place currently and to obviously offer a public voice. this request is in direct response to any particular the harding shooting. the request has come from the community, so i am honored to bring this to the forefront today. today, we will hear from both and the staff on this particular issue, and we also have a representative from the san francisco police department, should there be questions for them. without further ado, thank you, mr. chair. first up, we have the mta director, ed reiskin. >> good morning. very happy to be here. want to thank supervisors cohen -- supervisor cohen for her leadership and bringing forward an issue that is very important to us. since i am here, i want to reflect on and apologize for the rush hour this morning. we had a very unfortunate occurrence where we had a private vehicle drive down into the portal that disrupted all the subway activity for this morning. the police have arrested the individual who was driving

i was not around so i am not sure how any behavior was handled by the commission or sfpd but it seems to have had a pretty bad reputation and eroded trust in the neighborhood and people lost patience with them. if you look closely, it is clear that the letters are against the old owner and not necessarily the new one even though they are expressing a great deal of skepticism about how the new venue would operate. it is difficult to find, even the letters of opposition specifics about the current operator. because there is a new owner and opportunity here for fresh start, because she has worked well with sfpd and us and the neighborhood because it is unrelated because there is a new name, and there has been so much support from the neighborhood, staff recommends the approval of the permit. >> tecate. -- ok. [applause] >> i did not realize you were so popular. did you want to come forward? do you want to introduce yourself? >> i am eric embry, thanks. also to everyone who came out tonight. i will start a stopwatch here. we want to tell you a little bit about ourselves first just so you

on the second of this year, and i bring it to your attention that i was approached by two sfpd officers and almost beat up. on january 2, i was approached by two police officers that wanted to know if i had ripped off a computer one week earlier, and i said, "i did not rip off any computer. i picked up a pamphlet and gave it to a woman." they grabbed me. i said, "hold it, hold it. this is undue procedure." i was jack-booted. to this day, i go to the veterans administration and have myself checked out, i am numb. they had two sets of handcuffs on me. when i was delivered to the police station, my feet were numb. they pulled me out and dropped me out on the handcuffs and said, "you are out now." i said, "is this a school for bruts?" he smiled and walked away. i was there for two hours. i said, "you have not asked any questions." i was told to shut up. later, they made me sign some documents that i would be in jail for another couple of hours. a notice of theft of lost property. i said, "you have got to be kidding me." and then, badge 124 took my documents and literally threw them in the s

commissioner cavellini: i would like to make a friendly amendment that the conditions at the sfpd have provided, along with supervisor mar, be implemented, but the hours be extended only until 4:00. vice chair joseph: that is a friely amendment. you can choose to accept it or not. it is up to you. commissioner perez: you are saying until 4:00? commissioner cavellini: if you need food coming out ofcertain establishments that close at 2:00, it seems you could get out of there by 3:00. but it could go until 4:00. vice chair joseph: do you accept it or not? commissioner perez: i do not. commissioner hyde: can i make a friendly amendment? cleaning the sidewalks, can we say 50 feet from the boundaries of the lot? vice chair joseph: do you accept that friendly amendment? commissioner perez: i do. vice chair joseph: are you the second? you except it, obviously. -- accept it, obviously. >> just to be clear, you are also including supervisor mar's recommendations? vice chair joseph: yes, minuses hours of operation, obviously. ---his hours of operation, obviously. there are police conditions that

internet, and in terms of sharing the date outside of sfpd, which we have done, public information, this creates a new set of challenges for us, because we handle security by paper because you have to go to the records room. this is a challenge, and we are working on how that is going to work. commissioner kingsley: thank you. president mazzucco: how many officers will this put out? how many more personnel will be available? >> certainly, it will put some of the officer's back on the street, but the greater benefit is once, but some type of electronic tablet, it is the amount of time that will keep officers back on the street because they will not have to come back to the station to use the desktop computers at the station. they will be staying outside, that half-hour trip back and forth that they make three or four times, it should increase their time on patrol by about 30% per officer. president mazzucco: that is incredible. that is a question we had before, so thank you for building the system. >> and thank you for the controller's office for getting it right. president mazzucco:

in the future to control this, sfpd said it will keep officers out of the loop.arge operations officer of will be told where to bring their gear and what time to show up and then they will be briefed. >>james: it is not unprecedented sfpd does keep operations, large ones anyway under lock and key and they plan to do more in the future. >>justine: the occupy protesters not have richmond city leaders talking about changing some of their policies as well. they held a meeting late into the night last night. city officials are trying to adopt a plan that would not allow their police officers to help neighboring communities anymore. they did provide assistance during an occupy oakland protest that did get out of hand. the resolution directs the police chief to carefully evaluate any request for mutual aid from outside agencies and declined a request if he feels necessary. >>james: the man accused of raping three women in san francisco's mission district is expected to be in court today. he will hear the charges against him that include attempted murder. he was arrested

the sfpd does not, and i do not think you do either. whenever on social activity goes on, it lands directly on our doorstep. we are right there. one of the major reasons the problems have lessened is because of our efforts. we managed after years to get the parking area closed off, and that is the only reason. this has been a constant effort with all of the businesses in the neighborhood, particularly the grocery store owner. there was a lot of opposition from the bar owner. it is great for the musicians, but we do live there. it is a very small residential neighborhood, and we are right there to bear the brunt of it. there is plenty of evidence that this does not fit the neighborhood. president newlin: thank you. appreciate your comments. the matter is at the commission, and since we are in expedited mode, i would like to ask the commissioners to make an amendment to the hours so that they are allowed, if this is approved, that if the holiday falls on a monday that they can use the normal -- normal weekend hours on a sunday. >> i move

in reaching the budget target, the budget office always backs out the mandated positions based on sfpd staffing. so, in fact, the number wouldn't be two fte's, it would be one. we would back from 34.75. moving on to the occ's baseline budget for this year, 3.8 million dollars in personnel costs. similar to the police department's percentage, personnel comprised 89% of our budget. 34.75 positions, the remainder of the budget which is almost half a million dollars is for operations. $380,000, 64% is for rent. >> production target for each fiscal year, there is no with no room in that part of our budget. >> the salary fringe benefits of the clerical position is $70,000. the salary plus fringe benefits is $117,000. but i have not identified specific positions for reduction. and as i've pointed out earlier, in addition to those target amounts, the reduction target amounts, the occ would have to reduce its ft by 1% a year for five years, the ability to another position that would need to be eliminated. looking at the challenges, the city comptroller identified the challenges in the 2007 reco

going back to finding out if there are incidents, you can check with the sfpd. we have been sued for having confrontations' because our security is trying to keep the neighborhood quiet because we have a condo on all four sides. they are coming across the bay. they cruised into the lot. they wait until our patrons finely go to the parking lot, and and they end up parking themselves there and start making noise. we have to send security to try to mitigate the problem and keep the noise and down a period of police and everyone puts pressure on us in that situation. sometimes if there are no altercations and we find out our customers' cars got broken into and they are crying and screaming that they lost their credit cards and purses and all about. there is an attendant in the beginning, and at 12:00 they take up and split. i think it is irresponsible. i understand the small business people, but what about us among we incur a lot of costs to protect the neighborhood. on fourth street i practically secure the whole street. i have a guard who monitors the parking lot

this particular jack in the box, there are specific conditions that sfpd is proposing, including having security guards working from 10:00 p.m. until 4:00 a.m. seven days a week. having employees pick up of many trash left by patrons around the exterior including the parking lot and sidewalks. making sure the alighting is sufficient to eliminate the outside area. making sure that the toilet facilities are available to patrons within the establishment of but making sure that the permit holders should take measures to ensure the sidewalk is not blocked or unnecessarily affected by patrons. security camera should be maintained in good working order. and abide by the posted occupancy. that is it. >> is the applicant here? >> good evening, members of the commission. my name is arthur bryden. i have served as a business consultant to jack in the box restaurants. i would like to turn our presentation over to my associate jennifer who has served as a liaison between our office and the respective individual franchise. commissioner joseph: commissioner is the president of the commission. >> i kno
