supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: just to start, thank you for that. and, you know, i've done a lot of domestic violence prevention work and i think that can be very triggering to lot of people. and i understand where you are coming from. i am wondering, i mean this nation is a wash -- awash in guns. i don't know how that individual got the gun, especially after the circumstances you just -- just described. it sounds like he was in and out of custody that night. i don't know how he ended up with a gun in his possession. but i am going to have the same question that i have to you as you are a public defender and i and the prosecutor and i asked the same question to others. in your experience that you have had with police officers and in the story that you just told, whether or not that is in disciplining officers, you can be impartial, and also i would like to ask whether you've had implicit bias training yourself. >> excuse me and coming up -- off of a cold right now. regarding impartiality, i think i can be fair, and just, regars ofwho is in front of

>> supervisor stefani: aye. >> clerk: stefani, i didn't. supervisor sheehy? >> supervisor sheehy: aye. >> clerk: sheehy, aye. supervisor fewer? >> supervisor fewer: no. >> clerk: fewer, no. supervisor cohen? >> supervisor cohen: aye. >> clerk: cohen, aye. the motion passes. >> supervisor cohen: all right. chief, you're done. thank you for your time. i'd like to call up kelly kirkpatrick to discuss technical amendments. >> thank you for your patience. i had to get all the papers together. the clerk should be bringing them over to you. i have included three rounds of technical adjustments. round one is what you had heard on monday? all the technical cleanups about balancing overhead entries, correcting work orders, accurately reflecting grant amounts, and it includes the detail which i submitted to you all via e-mail over monday, but i wanted you to have that full package to accept. round two of which there's a letter as well as excel sheet is attached are actualizing the rebalancing plans for homeless and mohcd, so it was removing all items related to proposit

. >> supervisor cohen: supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: thank you, chair, cohen, and thank you miss davis for being here today and i agree with supervisor fewer around the comments with racial equity. when i was a department head we had that departmeant d reat where we spent thentire day on the racial equity and the racial equity program. and just before i was appointed as the county clerk i was working with h.r.c. to develop the plans on how to bring racial equity into our department. and i was just starting to do the work with the county clerk and i can't thank you enough. and i know that a lot of the county heads were doing that as well and i hope that the county clerk's office is continuing to do that. i see that as extremely important work and i definitely support that resolution. i wanted to follow up with you and i was looking through the brochure about how you work on police and community relations. i think that is extremely important work. i mean, just in the five months that i have been here as supervisor, i have seen how it is vital that we improve those relation

stefani aye. tang aye. there are 11 ayes. >> president breed: the ordinance has finally passed unanimously. madam clerk please call items 2-5 together. >> clerk: items 2-5 comprise proposed interim budget appropriating all estimated receipts and expenditures. item three proposed interim annual salary ordinance. item 4 treasure island development authority interim budget and item 5 office of community investment and infrastructure. >> president breed: can we take these items same house, same call? without objection, those items are approved unanimously. madam clerk, item 6. >> clerk: motion to enact a 3% cost of living adjustment to the base contract for the budget and legislative analyst services for approximate $67,000 increase resulting in a new fiscal year '18-'19 of approximately $2.29 million. >> president breed: same house, same call? without objection the motion is approved unanimously. madam clerk, please call items 7-19 together. >> clerk: comprise 13 ordinances that adopt m.o.u.'s between the city

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: just so i'm clear, you're saying you would absorb the salary so there's no increase? >> yes. >> supervisor stefani: that's what we did yesterday with the parks and recreation budget. >> supervisor cohen: okay. supervisor sheehy? >> supervisor sheehy: in every instance that we talked about, i'm aware of the incumbent. they've all been doing spectacular work, so i'm wondering if the root of the problem may be in that department or that agency where there seems to be a lot of flexibility and fluidity on how people are hired, at what point, and -- 'cause i -- i really feel very uncomfortable about taking people who have been doing work and doing it well and kind of pen jammizing them over what seems like a current pattern of very, very bad process. directly was disrespectful of our board action as you noted yesterday. in one of the cases, we were very specific, but i wonder if there's a larger, more systemic problem in how these things are happening. because i think

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: yes, and this is for the controller so i feel comfortable about the audit, what are you looking for? i'd just like it on the record to be sure that we're not politicizing this, that it's a normal audit that you would conduct in the normal course of business. >> that's correct, supervisor. the chair's requested we conduct a review of this function. the scope of that would be to review actual spending in prior appropriations and as the d.a. indicates, some workload analysis of how the workload of this unit compares to the rest of the district attorney's office and other departments engaged in similar work. so that's the scope in mind. i've indicated to the chair that we could likely complete the report by the end of september. we have not had a meeting with the district attorney to set our final scope, but that's how we're envisioning the final timeline looking. >> supervisor yee: okay. >> supervisor cohen: supervisor yee? >> supervisor yee: so just given that the

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: i'm introducing an in memoriam for geraldine washburn, known as ms. washburn to dance students. she taught for 63 years and will be fondly remembered byer students and colleagues. saint brendan's and the teaching community of san francisco lost a dear friend and educator. she's survived by cheryl and geraldine and ian, her nieces and nephew. she will be sadly missed. the rest i submit. >> clerk: that concludes the introduction of new business. >> supervisor breed: madam clerk, please read public comment. >> clerk: at this time, the public may address the entire board of supervisors for up to 2 minutes on items within the subject matter jurisdiction of the board to include the may 8, 2018, board minutes and items 14-20 on the adoption without reference to committee calendar. public comment is not allowed on an item that's been previously subject to public comment and pursuant to the board's rules please direct your remarks to the board as a whole and not to indiv

supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: i would also like to be added as a cosponso >> supervisor breed: thank you for your leadership, and thank you for honouring those amazing veterans who are here in the chamber today. my grandfather served in the army as well, and i am just grateful for the service of many of the folks in our military, and they should all be recognized and not forgotten. we truly appreciate your tribute here today and add to me as a cosponsor as well. with that, i see no other names on the roster. colleagues, can we take this item, same house, same form? without objection, the resolution is adopted anonymously. -- unanimously. >> today's meeting will be adjourned in memory of the following individuals. on behalf of supervisor peskin for the late mr lau. on behalf of supervisor fewer, missed washboard. >> supervisor breed: madam clerk, is there any further business before us today? >> that concludes our business for today. >> supervisor breed: congratulations to the warriors and although we couldn't be there at the parade, we are there in spirit. go warriors. l

. >> supervisor safai: supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you. i'm wondering how you would work around policies that bring all viewpoints into question. >> the first recommendation from the d.o.j. was community policing. there's those that interact with law enforcement or are touched by sfpd activity that the police didn department did not adhere to the rights of justice. like the right to be notified as to what you've done wrong. the right to present your case, the right to a fair hearing. this is a pal pable sense and the department of justice flagged this for us. i think if we can move forward just with that one very simple area -- so sorry, not simple. there's nothing simple about it. in just that one recommendation narrowly move forward on increasing awareness around the principals of procedural justice, what are the policies of when they are arriving at a scene and there could be an altercation? how does the sfpd intac with people on the scene? what are the rights of the people on the scene? i think that could go a long way in building trus

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: yes a lot of the questions were asked. you said in your statement that you made decisions that officers have followed. i'm just wondering if you can expand on that a little bit. >> yes, supervisor. thank you. part of my -- one of my positions at the district attorney's office, and actually it was a position that all district attorneys, at some point, come across, is our job is to review sfpd's work. to review their police reports that have led to arrests. throughout my time in the district attorney's office, i have had to parse through those reports, examine the evidence, examined the officer's statements, and decide if there is enough evidence to file a charge or not. so i have directly over saw a lot of sfpd's work as might -- in my time at the district attorney. in a lot of instances, it was my job in seeking justice as a district attorney to declined to file charges, or if new evidence came to light, to dismiss charges in order to ensure that justice is served. this was not always appreciated by the officers with whom

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: just one more question, chair. >> sure. >> supervisor stefani: thank you for being here. we heard from the chief from protection that since january , there's 687 referrals, and i'm just wondering with the $200,000 that's been allocated if there's enough to do the job to make sure -- i know you said you were going to use overtime, but what would be the ideal here? >> well, the ideal would be to have two f.t.'s, at least, if not three, but i think early on, the decision was made with the mayor's budget office that they wanted to get some statistics to do that. but this was before electronic monitoring -- our rise in electronic monitoring, but i will say they did already fund the electronic monitoring increase in last year's budget, so i think we have to wait and see, and we're going to know more as we go forward. >> >> supervisor stefani: okay. >> supervisor cohen: supervisor -- >> supervisor yee: yee. >> supervisor cohen: yee, thank you. >> supervisor chr, you me

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, president breed. i, too, am supportive of the continuance and streamlining and making sure the process isn't abused so people aren't in long protracted battles that prevents them from adding onto their homes like we saw in the land use committee. almost every single neighborhood association in my district has questions about the ordinance and would like to weigh in on it. i was saying earlier today there's that saying if you aren't at the table you are on the menu and they feel they have been left out of the conversation. i feel this continuance would help us restore trust in this planning process. meaningful community input, i agree there's obviously merit to these ideas, there's plenty to agree on here but i think all stakeholders need to be involved and i will be supporting the continuance. thank you. >> president breed: okay, seeing no other names on the roster, on the motion to continue the item, colleagues could we take that same house, same call? without objection, this item will be continued t

supervise stefani? >> commissioner stefani: i was wondering, how do we compare with other airports in terms of police staffing? >> you know, the metrics we use are around officers per-100,000 passengers-type thing. and we are on -- we were on the low side, i thin of most -- a lot of airports are now trying to increase at the same time because of the vulnerability of airports, so you do see airports ramp will up police staffing, so right now, the metric doesn't align to what the needs are. i think airports are trying to move up to protect those vulnerable spots. so when we're at that full staff, i will be able to measure i think what other airports have done, as well. but i'd be glad to give you a report of what we've done so far, actually. >> commissioner stefani: okay. that goes to my next question. how does the increased expansions and loads affect the officers? j> it's signific beca e the amou additional space to cover is an important aspect; the amount of activity and passengers th we're pericing. o

supervisor stefani? while you're looking we had a cogoodersation, i asked you a blot of questions and i got a lot of good answers to those questions. what i want to hear you say something briefly about is the idea of officer recruitment from in the sfpd to hire from communities that are disproportionally effected by violent and what strategies would you have for that? >> i believe what we could do is have -- we have many non-profit organizations here in san francisco that serve various communities, marginalized communities. i believe that we can recruit -- help recruit through those non-profit organizations a deal daily with the most marginalized communities here. encourage them to apply and educate them about law enforcement careers. we could have out reach from the department going to different organization organizations, china town, community development, the native american health center and dental center. there is meta, there is the transgender center in addition to several other districts. there is

. >> supervisor stefani: yeah. one time. >> supervisor cohen: okay. fewer fewer umm -- >> supervisor cohen: yes. >> supervisor fewer: i'm so sorry, i forget women's cancer screenings with public health, and i think that should be 600,000 over two years. these are mainly women of clolr in poverty -- >> supervisor cohen: i'm sorry. which area is this? >> supervisor fewer: it's public health. i think these are primarily women of color, and other people have mentioned it on their lists, also. >> supervisor cohen: yes, it was mentioned, but it was mentioned for something like $4 million. >> supervisor fewer: no, i mentioned it for $600,000 over two years. >> supervisor cohen: all right. we're going to have to take a moment to cleanup these -- cleanup the list and begin to consolidate. i don't know if there's any further discussion, anything to add? all right. let's come back at -- let's come back from recess in one hour, 5:00. thank you. >> welcome to another episode of safety on today is episode we'll show you how 0 retroactive you're home let's go inside

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, supervisor cohen. i just want to be clear, i don't support any cuts whatsoever to the pretrial diversion program, and in fact i support increasing it to the 1.7 that's requested, and here's why. if we are serious about what we want to do in the pretrial supervision program which is to rehabilitate people so they don't continue to enter the criminal justice system, we need to do our job, and do our job well. it is about helping people get their lives back on track, so if we're serious about that, we need to invest in it. my office has been following cases in court where people in my district have been injured, and so many times, what i hear back is how is this person allowed to be on the street? you saw the video of the person who kicked the homeless man in the face, and you see the assaults and his record, and the offenses that he has made against others, and you ask how is this person allowed to be on the street? so if this person is going to be surprised by pretrial diversion, i want to make sure we

supervisor stefani has one for you. >> supervisor stefani: yes. if you could just expand on what supervisor yee just said in terms of why it wasn't in the mayor's budget. it sounds like that request was made. >> on 18-19, there's the 15 that everybody is on board with, right? and then, there's the 700,000 that is in the mayor's proposed budget which gets to six new vehicles. you know, we do have a limited equipment budget, and we try our best to allocate to the extent we can, and so we were able to fund 21 in the mayor's budget, and so i believe we support the fire department's need for these vehicle replacements and the critical needs they've identified. >> supervisor cohen: do you have a question? supervisor yee -- i'm sorry, just give me a second. b.l.a., is there anything else you need -- any other remarks, still? okay. supervisor yee, can you make a motion, please? >> supervisor yee: i'd like to make a motion -- actually, i don't even know what the motion is. >> supervisor cohen: i'll go ahead and make it, if you don't mind -- oh, ben? >> if

supervisor stefani? >> commissioner stefani: thank you. i know you mentioned the divested from fossil fuel holdings, and i'm wondering if we divested from ammunition and gun stocks? >> yes. we went further than anyone did after sandy hook. we not only from the manufacturers, but we divested our holdings in the major retailers that were making those available to the public. so i'm proud of the board by going further than the step -- than i think a calot of calls e being made fornow. >> commissioner stefani: thank you. >> supervisor cohen: yes. supervisor yee? >> supervisor yee: you mentioned theireeet h f td has grown to about 250 million. is there a particular goal that we're trying to reach in terms of the amount? and then, also, i was just wondering what the source of the growth is from? >> i hesitated to say the fundedness because we were one of the first. the city and county of san francisco is one of the very first cities to decide to start funding this type of obligation. i believe -- i don't have the numbers in front of me, but cert

supervisor stefani has a question. >> supervisor stefani: just a qu queson. does the gann number apply differently to san francisco since we are a city and county as compared to other counties, and wave more responsibility? >> i think the calculation finitely looks different for us as a city and a county, but it globally applies to city and counties throughout the state, and it actually applies to the state itself, and the state itself has had conversations that they are frustrated with the gann level. given the boom we've seen, this is an issue that's going to start rising around the state so it's not unique to us. what's unique to us is probly the level of revenue growth we've seen over the past few years which means that phase is growing quickly. that concludes my presentation. happy to answer any questions or follow ups that the committee might have. >> supervisor cohen: colleagues, any questions for mr. rosenfield? supervisor yee? okay. . so thank you for your presentation from ben and kelly kirkpatrick. i appreciate the information. just want to recogni

. >> supervisor stefani: i did sit through the first hearing on this and was very saddened at what i heard, and i just want to again thank everyone who came out. i know this is extremely difficult and i agree with supervisor ronen it is her her c and you empower other women to come out and feel they are not alone. as other people were sharing their stories with us, i started my career as a prosecutor because i wanted justice for victims and protect people from crime and it does break my heart how the criminal justice has failed all of you who testified and this blaming the victim in 2018 is just unacceptable. it is never your fault. if you are drinking and someone says you are drunk and that is what just happens it's never your fault. there is no excuse for being assaulted. i was thinking you really helped shine light on this issue and now we know it's out there. there is that one quote by my anglo, when you know better, do better. i have to tell you it is my intention to make sure that we dual better, so i am happy to co-sponsor and work on this issue and see that it moves forward.

supervise stefani, supervise sheehy? okay. >> supervisor yee: can i -- >> supervisor cohen: oh, e supervisor yee? >> supervisor yee: i've been asking a little bit about this issue also, and i think what supervisor fewer is suggesting is reasonable, to look at something -- other options besides what they're -- the pathway they're taking at this point. the -- i don't understand technology as well as others, but when people talk to me about it and mention things like 5 something -- >> supervisor cohen: 5g. >> supervisor yee: 5g and other things they don't need to dig up holes in our ground, it seems a much better option to me. >> supervisor cohen: miss linda, could you comment on that? >> yust one more comment. regardless of the path we take, we need more information. that's what this year was going to be about. it was going to be understanding the market, understanding the construction that would be needed, and understand the network architecture to be put in place. 500,000 is not going to get us there, so i would say we w

first let me say thanks to mayor farrell and supervisors peskin and stefani for their leadership. keeping the focus on the issue is important in terms of us moving the needle and turning the epidemic of car break-ins around. i'm going to talk about mr. ed riskin, head of mta, but today's approach, we know is the way to go. we have to be a more resilient city. we talk a lot about prevention, don't make yourself an easy target, but there are other things we can do to be more resilient and prevent the crimes from happening in the first place. the things that have been implemented here, the fencing installed, to stop unauthorized entry, the lighting and the surveillance cameras to discourage would-be thieves, this is a team effort. and this is what collaboration brings to the table. again, go back to mayor farrell and his leadership and before him, mayor lee in order to force this issue, force a collaborative partnership that has led us to some success this year. we are working hard to ctinue the effort as the mayor said. this is going to be spread to all the city parking garages. alt

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: you mentioned alameda county. do they pay us for those services? i am wondering why we are doing work for the county or looking into -- >> i'm sorry -- >> supervisor stefani: with regard to the i.i.b. >> the case of a sheriff coming into our city -- >> supervisor stefani: oh, it happened in our city. i thought you were investigating something. >> no, a san francisco case involving and i.i.b. investigates law enforcement and other excessive official uses of force. >> supervisor stefani: i was just confused when you said that. view view we have invested shootings from task forces and other law enforcement agencies and the occurs in the city. >> supervisor: i wanted to clarify r you only looking at officer or peace officer involved shooting? >> no. for instance, we have a case we filed against a paramedic where where we have reason to believe that excessive force was used by a paramedic. we also have cases that do not rise to a level of shooting but excessive force with significant injuries. and as i mentioned before

supervisor stefani? >> yeah. i just want to reiterate, of course, that there's so many qualified candidates, and there's several that i wish i could put forward, but the motion has been made -- >> supervisor safai: well, no motion's been made yet. discussion -- two names were thrown out for discussion. >> you know, it's just -- again, it's one of the -- it's a difficult position being in, but i -- like i said, i was so impressed with so many candidates and had really good talks with everyone. but i do believe the two names, john hamasaki and cindy ally as that have been mentioned would serve the commission well and would do a good job, and they are ready to go, day one, i think. and that's all i have right now. >> supervisor safai: supervisor yee? >> supervisor yee: so i'll go ahead and make the motion then. >> supervisor safai: okay. >> supervisor yee: i'd like to make a motion to nominate john hamasaki to seat two and cindy elias to seat one and send it out with positive recommendation to the full board? >> sup

supervisor stefani, i see you. >> supervisor stefani: yes, just one more thing. obviously, some of us think differently about this issue, and some of us might be more willing to look at different types of documents to come to a decision, and that's clear. it doesn't mean that i am judging my colleagues for their decisions at all. i happen to feel, like i said, that the months of analysis that were done to produce the document that you worked on after engaging with your staff over months of review and call volume data over months of review and working on the controller's sector control report, for me, that is enough. i understand that's not enough for my colleagues. and also, i want to be very clear that this is an issue that is extremely important to me. and i'm not saying that it's not extremely important to my colleagues at all, but it's one of my number one issues because it's on the mind of my constituents and something that i am well versed in. i'm not saying everybody else isn't well versed in, but i'm just saying this is where i'm coming at it. and it cert

motion right now that supervisor stefani would like to make. >> supervisor stefani: okay. so we're -- i'm making a motion to accept the agreements and the upper classification which will be absorbed into the budget. and are we disapproving the car? >> supervisor cohen: what do you -- you want the -- okay. give him the car. >> supervisor stefani: okay. so scrap that motion. >> supervisor cohen: all right. so we're going to accept -- we're going to reject the b.l.a. cuts, and we are going to allow the department to purchase the $37,500 car, and we are going to allow the upwards substitution but use your salary atrition to pay for that difference, the upper substitution. are we all clear on that? >> supervisor yee: so just for clarification, on the salary payment, means that there's going to be a reduction as recommended by b.l.a. of 30-something thousand? >> supervisor cohen: yes, that's correct, but i'll let the b.l.a. >> yes. the incumbent would stay in the upward substitution, but the dollar savings would be realized by the board increase to their atrition. >> supervisor

. >> supervisor stefani. >> just one question. as you're aware, this seat was filled by the director of mission housing. he had a nonprofit angle to this and brought that experience. i'm just wondering how you would add value to the commission and what experience do you have with building affordable housing, and how you see being able to fill that seat. >> of course. yes. i understand that that seat was occupied previously by a nonprofit builder. what i blame from both of my experience and my personal experience, as a builder, i have bull levels of affordable housing during my career. inclusionary housing: i'm very much an advocate of the program they have at treasure island. i know of the 8,000 homes, there are 2,100 affordable homes that will be built. what i find and what i support is in that affordable number, those are all varying degrees of income. those are also built mixed in neighborhoods. this is not a specific site or a building. this is mixed in income neighborhoods, which i think is an excellent model and one i suppor

members of the board of supervisor, jeff seehey and katheri katherine stefani here today. our city departments, our controllers office for tirelessly working to find the right amount of staffing that we need right here in our police department. you know, since taking public office i repeatedly stressed that i believe we have some of the best men and women in our police department here inside of san francisco. proud of all of you do who are here today in front of us. i am not afraid as the mayor of the city and county of san francisco to say how proud i am of the men and women of our police department. every day they are putting their lives on the line for us as san francisco residents, they deserve our respect and our gratitude. when we are so fortunate to have such dedicated men and women on our police department, we simply don't have enough of them today. san francisco is an ever changing city with ever changing neighborhoods. we cannot be bound by antequated staffing levels that do not reflect today's reality in our streets and in our neighborhoods. that is why today i
