Months more than a year maybe a couple years about those texts but didnt do anything. What is going to happen is there is a very real possibility that those officer will be reinstated. That is a possibility. The Mayors Office is shaking their head but that is what the superior court said. They could very well decide that. What kind of message do you think it will send to these communities that as a court could very well reinstate these officers, we on the board of supervisors we are not talking about the need to reform the system, to figure how it is that the Police Department knew about texts and yet nothing happened. We are talking about hiring more officers. Im sorry but that is putling the cart before the horse. Before we go down that path we need to make sure we look at this Police Department and addressing the reforms that are needed. The fact that the chief of police is saying these officers should be term inated is a good thing, but the problem is that the court is saying that this department did not act appropriately. The fact that a court is saying that should give us pause. It should give enough pause to say, lets look at what reforms may be needed before we go down this path. I will be supporting some of the amendments but i will most definitely be voting against this ruzlution and think if this resolution passes well have egg in our face here in city hall and i think it is actually sad that that is how we want approach this. At a minimum we should continue this if we are not sending it back to committee but i want to be on the record saying this isnt just a mistake, but one of the graveest mistakes we will have made if we go forward with this. Supervisor avalos we have amendments i believe that i think we can vote on those now if we could. I would like to go one by one and then i have a amendment as a whole i would like to do so based on the amendments that i proposed if you look at page 2 line 1621, those seem to be the items that you have concern with and if you look at the further resolve clauses on page 3lines 1825 and on page 4 line 1 and 2, it seems as though those are the ones you with willing to support so maybe we canno. Okay. Ill explain. The first where asclause where the 15 study [inaudible] average 271 Police Officers per 100 thousand residence, i believer that is fact i can support that. The next one to meet the average police level [inaudible] that is opinion. San Francisco Police staffing goal should reflect future and current needs, that is a opinion and can cant support that. We established the 1971 number 20 years ago is a fact but not think because we did it 20 years ago we should establish the numbers we should establish it on other factors. On the first resolve clause if we change it and say in addition to exploring Police Staffing level the board will look at strategy. You changing out exploring tofrom increase to explore and get to what i propose in my amendment as a whole is not commit to increase staffing level but have a multidisciplineary process to consider establishing staffing level rather than saying we are going to increase staffing level. That is a the difference between my amendment and here. If we want to go one by one im happy to vote but ill come back with Something Else that will override the whole thing in that case well take my amendments in their whole form and i wont split them up and take your amendments. Madam clerk on the motion to amend sorry to interrupt, but i believe if i want to request we split the file to vote on it that is a action and motion that would prevail over actually having a vote on the whole resolution. Is that correct . As to the president yes you can divide portions of the amendment out i couldweed like to do that if i can repeat supervisor avalos what you would like to separate. Page 2 line 1819 and 2021. That section i would like to separate. The where as clauses. And on page 3, line 25 line 24, 24, okay. Well take a vote on everything before that and a secondary vote for each motion will the page and line number be stated for what is voted on . Im happy to do that this is for president breeds amendments that is correct madam clerk is that clear . Yes madam president before we get to the very end i want to offer amendments as well okay. Basically for clarity sfr visor avalos asked to remove line 1821 as well as line on page 2 and on page 3 line 24 and remove those and vote on those separately and vote on the rest of the underlying amendments, is that clear . Okay. Colleagues can we please call the roll on the items withoutdo you want that to be repeated . I think just to be clear if i may suggest that the clerk states what line we are voting on in terms of amending into the resolution supervisor breed made a motion second by supervisor wiener that the amendments that she supported be voted on. We are severing out for a secondidary vote line 1821 on page 2. And on page 3, line 24. Those items we are removing from this vote and then well take a second vote on those items that i serveered. Okay, can you please call the roll wiener, aye. Yee, aye. Breed, aye. Compose, aye. Christensen, aye. Cohen, aye. Farrell, aye. Kim, aye. Mar, aye. Tang, aye. There are 11 aye. Those amendments pass unanimously. If i may articulate what they are. On page 2 lines 1821. And on page 3, line 24. Please call the roll supervisor wiener, aye. Yee, im sorry. I am a little confused. I thought we just didgot you. Yee, aye. Avalos, no. Breed, aye. Campos, no. Christensen, aye. Cohen, aye. Farrell, aye. Kim, no. Mar, no. Tang, aye. There are 7 aye and 94 no. Avalos campos kim and mar voted no. Those amendments pass supervisor avalos i motion to duplicate the file and you can just make a request to duplicate the file im requested to duplicate the file. Duplicate the file and one i would like to propose the amendment as whole and you have a copy of the amendment on your desk and let me read the amendment as a whole. Rather than establishing Police Staffing levels we are establishing a multidisciplineary process for determining Police Staffing levels and then in the language of the resolution it says rez dugz establishing board of supervisor policy that Police Staffing levels will be adjusted through a multidisciplineitary process involving departments and stake holder and redue voou Public Policy best practice for evaluating Police Staffing levels. Then i have other where as clauses i added to the resolution on page 2, top of page 2 line 1, the stucystics from the cam department of justice show between 194 and 2013 despite increase in population the overall number of crimes in San Francisco have decreased with diViolent Crime decreases by 34. 8 percent homicide [inaudible] robberies decreases by 36. 6 and property crime decrease by 5. 3 percent and down to line 15 on the same page, where as the per report states the tagt for patrol staffing should be balanced [inaudible] next line 16 is another line i want to add. Where as the pir report upper limit recommendation of 2254 officer was intended to allow officers time for heavy involvement in Community Policing and problem solving especially during prime time police hours 11 a. M. 9 p. M. Allow to [inaudible] work with Community Organization meet with Business People and contact other government agencies. Page 3 line 9, where as the controller report found that San Francisco has. 14 civilian for aench wn sworn officer which is liss than half the national achberage for cities with population over 350 thousand and where as in comparison with peer cities San Francisco was found to have a slightly lower number for high priority calls. [inaudible] Violent Crime falls in the middle of [inaudible] and slightly above the National Average for population over 350 thousand. I have one other page which has a lot ofi wont read the whole thing but it talks about the International Association of chief of police and their report around patrol staff{talks about ratio for population rate not boo to determine the Police Staffing. And Michigan State university does that detaches per capita and report other issues of how respond. Those are the amendments as a whole and there is also on the resolve clauses in stead of committing to a higher staffing level we request the budget analyst to study the different approaches Staffing Levels for Police Departments are done around the country, what are best practices around that and we should consider that before decided what the staffing level should be which makes more sense. Using anecdotal evident what makes a neighborhood or city staif and what the praerp Staffing Levels should be. Supervisor avalos made motion to amend the duplicated file and veckd by supervisor campos. Supervisor campos thank you madam president. I want to make a important point i failed to mention in the earlier remark jz think it is important for the public to know this because while i think that it is true some people raise the issue of staffing i think one of the things people dont know which i think it is important for the members of the public to keep in mind is San Francisco not doing very well in terms of the number of Police Officers that are actually patrolling the streets opposed to Police Officers sitting behind a derfck and doing the job of a civilian. I believe people want staffing and i believe people want to make sure Police Officers are patrolling streets and not behind oo desk. Let me give you the number the per report had. When the per report was issued in 2008 had 2130 officers and San Francisco had 231 civilians. Interestingly enough you look at a Department Like boston that had 2170 Police Officers at the time, very similar to numbers of San Francisco, boston had 640 civilians. 3 times more than San Francisco had which means that they actually had civilians doing the work that should be done by civilians. To the contrary here, you had Police Officers sitting behind a desk at a higher proportion than boston. If you look at seattle, seattle had staffing of 1273, half of what San Francisco staffing was and seattle had 502 civilian employees in 2008 recollect twice the numbersuch had. Baltimore 2900 officers, 721 civilians, again just a few officers more than San Francisco but 3 times the number of civilians. The reason i say that is that i think it is important for members of the public in San Francisco to know that we are talking about hiring more Police Officers when we havent done a good enough job making sure the officers we do that they are patrolling the streets and not behind a desk. I think if the public notes that a lot of the same people saying more staffing will say before you do more staffing can you make sure police officererize patrolling a street and not sitting behind a desk okay. With that colleaguessupervisor avalos just to reclarify the motion, it is a duplicate file and do it as a whole and send to committee and want to specify can goes topublic safety thank you.

We have seen cannabis legalization effort succeed in other states and it is likely 2016 will bring legalized can bss to california. Several state wide advocacy groups are working on it now. If this passes and it is very well may San Francisco will be at the epicenter of the change. We need to take a spart and thoughtful policy approach to what the news will mean to the city. If we dont formialate posin advants we will have a ciotic fire drill after legalization occurs. The cannabis state Legalization Task force will bring together residence, adcoicate residence and other leaders to identify the key policies we need to plan for now. It is 22 member Cannabis Task force with representative as described in the legislation from various sectors to really provide strong feedback and various perspective about how we need to plan for this likely change. The term of the task force, the goal is for it to commence [inaudible] and tosk force to report back the board of supervisors in one year on the legal social and enforcement issues we are like tee to have to address. The task force will take no official position on legalization but focus on policy and administrative solution. Colleagues this is a important effort to plan ahead for a significant change in state law and i ask for your support. I do want to offer a minor amendment that supervisor kim and i drafted today that will simply clarify for the 2 seats reserved for cannabis consumers that they need to have at least 2 years of experience in cannabis related advocase so we distributed those mining amendments and i move we adopt those amendments supervisor wiener made a motion to emend 2nd by supervisor kim.
