See anything. Because thats what she was there for she came for this examination. She couldnt see why she didnt see this thing she made up in her mind and when i suddenly shouted at her, what are you doing, she said medication. So that was the thing that set her off. And we all know what happens when there are nurses who engage in their own practices. There was one who was caught after 300 deaths many are never caught. There must be many people who become ill or die because of people like this running around. And until that nurse and the administrate administerrer at the jewish home are out of the field i will never give up on this subject. Is this something is department is aware of . I would invite you to speak with a representative from sfpd. Well follow up. Im not aware of that case, but we will follow up. Thank you. Have a good evening maam. Good evening commissioners. My name is brian with the Public Defenders Office. Dpa published its 2018 annual report last week. 275 days late. The data report was confusing. Since i have a few minutes to speak im going to highlight three points. First they report that 59 percent of sustained cases nine month internal completion goal but 293 percent improvement over the previous year. I did the math. The math suggests that just 15 percent of cases met that goal. I realize the goal was just a benchmark. Both the percentages receive a failing grade in any school. An increase sounds impressive but sounds absurd under scrutiny. They said the public filed one misconduct allegation. Of those officers 85 percent had more than one allegation. Actual numbers instead of percentages which are the more vivid story. That story is this. Nearly 600 had more than one allegation in a single year, over 200 had one nearly every other month and 55 had one almost every month. The way they present the data matters and here they present data in a way that obscures whats happening and thats imbalance. Finally, dpa claims in appendix a the chief lowered the punishment in nine cases. I went through the cases and identified how often the chief lowered the discipline from a written reprimand to no punishment. I found at least 60 instances when it happened. I dont know how this represents the number of nine. That undermining the credibility of the report. So mathematical mistakes are one thing misrepresenting the truth is another. So im looking forward to next weeks presentation. We can dive into statistics a bit more. Thank you. Thank you. Any other Public Comment . General Public Comment . Good evening ms. Brown. Yes, good evening everyone. I would like to use the overhead. Im a little tired today. As usual i always come here to talk about my son who was murdered august 14, 2006 and to this day his case is a cold case and is unsolved. And i bring these with me all the time. Thomas hannibal, paris moffet, jason thompson, anthony hunger and marcus hunger. These are the people that were there when my son was being shot. And these are the perpetrators. One of them is deceased. And i ask for the last 14 years, ive been bringing these names here. And i just didnt pull them out of a hat. They are down at 8 50 in the homicide detail on the fifth floor with these names there and my sons case. And im still asking why havent any of these names and these people been arrested. I know people are saying we need someone to come forward. But how long and when . Is there anything else you can do beside waiting for someone else to come forward . Theres a 250,000 reward. Take that money and investigate this case. I know you hired a new investigator for me. But nothing has happened. Im still in the dark. I come all the time, i bring all these other faces with me. And i stand with some of these mothers for unsolved homicides. And thats my quest is unsolved homicides. Because my sons case is not solved. And i do ask where was everybody when my son and these other victims were murdered. I bring these pictures with me all the time because i want people to see what i have to deal with for the rest of my life and what i have to remember of my son for the rest of my life. And it hurts. And it still hurts. I continue to go to every form that i think i can go to where officials are there so that my sons face and memory wouldnt be forgotten. And people that are trying to be reelected into office and they are talking about Public Safety and people being murdered every day need to stop solve these cases so that i can heal. Thank you. There is a 250,000 reward out there for information, i think leading to the arrest and conviction. 415575444 is the tip line. Any other Public Comment . Good evening everyone. My name is Danielle Harris. Im the director of Public Policy for San FranciscoPublic Defenders Office. Im here again to ask this commission to take a formal and hard look at dpas ability and commitment to fulfill their mission, which which as far as i can tell, is laid out in the charter. And it has been affirmed by the electorate over 80 percent to hold police accountable. As i told you at the last Commission Meeting the current rate of records released by dpa at that rate, it will take a quarter century for all the records to be released on just the current sworn sfpd. That in itself is unacceptable. Then we have Strategic Plans presented tonight which nowhere acknowledged that Holding Police accountable is the reason dpa exists. I heard discussion about refining our mission and defining our mission. It is not up to dpa to define their mission. Their mission is defined very clearly in the city charter. And it cant be in name only. The only place that i see the words Police Accountability appear in those Strategic Plans are in the name of the agency. That is a problem. And then we heard from him that the annual report is inaccurate, misleading, unreliable and gives itself even a failing grade. The idea that these two reports, the Strategic Plans leave out these essential legally required tasks like twoyear audits and 1421 while they are refining and defining their mission says it all. They need to refocus. They need to reorganize. If these things werent concerning enough, let me tell you something, what happened yesterday. As you may know, we have an open request to dpa for all 1421 records. And as individual cases arise we make specific requests. I would like to i have copies of these two letters we got yesterday for everybody. We first got a letter yesterday in a specific case stating that Sergeant Daniel silver from the dpa has no records under 1421. Much to our surprise, the same afternoon. All right im sorry your time is up. We will take the letters. Just let us have the documents and we will have them distributed. [off mic]. I dont actually, but well get them. Okay. Thank you. Next speaker. Good evening commissioners. My name is rebecca young. Im a deputy public defender for the last 17 years in the city and county of San Francisco. I cochair the Racial Justice committee. This is the first time im appearing in front of this newlyformed police commission, and im very happy to see all the new faces. Because i work very closely with Danielle Harris i would like to finish her comments which is that on the same day that we received a letter from dpa saying no record on officer silver, we also received a letter from dpa saying that officer silver has reportable records under sb1421. And the records involved an officerinvolved shooting. And so it becomes something that cries out for explanation. How is it that on the very same day dpa can send out two completely different letters on the same officer one saying absolutely no record, and the other one saying records of an officerinvolved shooting. So the first letter says there are no records that qualify under penal code section 832. 7. This requires an explanation. And i am hopeful because the commission has oversight over dpa that the commission is as concerned about this 180 response on the same officer on the same issue as the Public Defenders Office is. Having said that, i listen very carefully tonight to ms. Hawkins presentation, which was excellent, i agree with commissioner mazzucco on that. And i listened carefully to commissioner hendersons report. And i heard a couple of things which would give me some pause. And one is there is new program and not all the cases have been run through the program. And the old data has not been integrated with the new data and theres brand new attorneys there and brand new investigators. And basically we are in a huge learning curve with dpa. Thats fine. That should be understood by everybody including the Public Defenders Office. However, i want, and i would expect the commission to set a deadline and its own expectations for how the dpa responds to records under sb1421. Sb1421 is essentially an accountability by the state of california. All departments must comply. And weve met with nothing but resistance. Thank you for listening. Can i give Public Comment on the bicycle reign issue . You have eight seconds. As a resident of the bayview i am really, and as a person that needs a lot more exercise. Your time is up. All right. Thank you. Any other Public Comment . Okay. Public comment is closed. Next item please. Line item 3 adjournment action item. Is there a motion . We have no closed session i take it . Is there a motion to adjourn . So moved. Is there Public Comment on the motion to adjourn . No Public Comment. All in favor . Aye. Opposed . All right. Motion carries. We had four votes in favor. [end of meeting] i view San Francisco almost as a sibling or a parent or something. I just love the city. I love everything about it. When im away from it i miss it like a person. I grew up in San Francisco kind of all over the city. We had pretty much the run of the city cause we lived pretty close to polk street and so we would in the summer, wed all all the way down to aquatic park and wed walk down to the library, to the kids center. In those days, the city was safe and nobody worried about us running around. I went to high school in spring valley. It was over the hill from chinatown. It was kind of fun to experience being in a minority, which most white people dont get to experience that often. Everything was just really within walking distance, so it make it really fun. When i was a teenager, we didnt have a lot of money. We could go to sam wongs and get super soup for 1. My parents came here and were drawn to the beatnik culture. They wanted to meet all of the writers who were so famous at the time but my mother had some serious Mental Illness issues, and i dont think my father were really aware of that and those didnt really become evident until i was about five, i guess, and my marriage blew up and my mother took me all over the world. Most of those ad ventures ended up bad because they would end up hospitalized. When i was about six i guess, my mother took me to japan and that was a very interesting trip where we went over with a boyfriend of hers, and he was working there. I remember the open sewers and gigantic frogs that lived in the sewers and things like that. Mostly i remember the smells very intensely but i loved japan. It was wonderful. Toward the end. My mother had a breakdown, and that was the cycle. We would go somewhere stay for a certain amount of months a year period of time and she would inevitably have a breakdown. We always came back to San Francisco which i guess came me some sense of continuity and that was what kept me sort of stable. My mother hated to fly so she would always make us take ships places so on this particular occasion when i was, i think, 12, we were on this ship getting ready to go through the panama canal and she had a breakdown on the ship. So she was put in the brig and i was left to wander the ship until we got to fluorfluora few days later where we had a distant florida a few days later, where we had a distant cousin who came and got us. I think i always knew i was a writer on some level, but i kind of stopped when i became a cop. I used to write short stories, and i thought someday im going to write a book about all these ad ventures that my mother took me on. When i became a cop i found i turned off parts of my brain. I found i had to learn to conform, which was not anything id really been taught but felt very safe to me. I think i was drawn to police work because after coming from such chaos, it seemed like a very organized, but stable environment. And even though things happening, it felt like putting order on chaos and that felt very safe to me. My girlfriend and i were sitting in ve 150d uvios bar and i looked out the window and i saw a police car and there was a woman who looked like me driving the car. For a moment, i thought i was me. And i turned to my friend and i said, i think im supposed to do this. I saw myself driving in this car. As a child, we never thought of police work as a possibility for women because there werent any until the mid70s, so i had only even begun to notice there were women doing this job. When i saw here, it seemed like this is what i was meant to do. One of my bosses as ben johnsons had been a cop, and he he i said i have this weird idea that i should do this. He said i think youd be good. The department was forced to hire us and because of all of the posters, and the big recruitment drive, we were under the impression that they were glad to have us but in reality, most of the men did not want the women there. So the big challenge was constantly feeling like you had to prove yourself and feeling like if you did not do a good job, you were letting down your entire gender. Finally took an inspectors test and passed that and then went down to the hall of justice and worked different investigations for the rest of my career which was fun. I just felt sort of buried alive in all of these cases, these unsolved mysteries that there were just so many of them and some of them i didnt know if wed ever be able to solve so my boss was able to get me out of the unit. He transferred me out and a couple of weeks later i found out i had breast cancer. My intuition that the job was killing me. I ended up leaving, and by then i had 28 years or the years in i think. The writing thing really became intense when i was going through treatment for cancer because i felt like there were so many parts that my kids didnt know. They didnt know my story they didnt know why i had a relationship with my mother why we had no family to speak of. It just poured out of me. I gave it to a friend who is an editor, and she said i think this would be publishable and i think people would be interested in this. I am so lucky to live here. I am so grateful to my parents who decided to move to the city. I am so grateful they did. That it never for the first time in nearly two decades fishers have been granted the legal right to sell fish directly to the package right off their boat to the public right off their boats in San Francisco. Its not only helping local fishers to stay afloat but its evoking the spirit of the wharf by resurfacing the traditional methods of selling fish. But how is it regulated . And what does it take for a boat to be transported into a Floating Fish market . Find out as we hop on board on this episode of whats next sf. Were here with the owner and the captain of the vessel pioneer. Its no coincidence that your boat is called the pioneer because its doing just that. Its the first boat in San Francisco to sell fish directly from the boat. How did you establish your boat into such a Floating Fish market . Well you know, i always thought that it would be nice to be able to provide fresh fish to the locals because most of the fish markets, you would have to do a large amount of volume in order to bring in enough fish to cover the overhead. When you start selling to the public that volume is much less so it makes it hard to make enough money. So being able to do this is really its a big positive thing i think for the entire community. A very positive thing. As a thirdgeneration fisherman joe as his friends call him has been trawling the california waters for sustainably caught seafood since an early age. Since obtaining a permit to sell fish directly to the public he is able to serve fish at an affordable price. Right now were just selling what a lot of the markets like flat fish and rock fish and what the public likes. So we have been working for many, many years and putting cameras in them. Theres the ability to short fish and we have panels that we open and close so we target the different species of fish by adjusting the net. And then not only that but then the net sort out the sizes which is really important. Joe brings in a lot of fish, around 20000 pounds per fishing trip to be exact. We had one day one time that we sold almost 18000 pounds. Its incredible. I know, its hard to imagine. But this wasnt always the case for joe. The markets that we have left in california theyre few and far between and they really are restrictive. Theyll let you fish for a couple months and shut you down. A lot of times its rough weather and if you cant make your delivery you will lose your rotation. Thats why theres hardly any boats left in california because of the market challenges. My boat was often sitting over here at the dock for years and i couldnt do anything with it because we had no market. The ability to go catch fish is fine, i had the permits but you couldnt take them off your boat. That was until the Port Commission of San Francisco rallied behind them and voted unanimously to approve a Pilot Program to allow the fish to be sold directly to consumers right off their boats. The purpose of the program is to allow commercial fishers to sell their fish directly from their boats to the end consumer in a safe and orderly manner for the benefit of the overall Fishing Community at the port of San Francisco. We have limited the program to certain types of fish such as salmon, halibut tuna and rock fish. Crab is restricted from this program because we did not want to interfere with the existing crab sales on Taylor Street and jefferson street. So this is not meant to favor one aspect of the fishing industry more than another. Its to basically to lift up the whole industry together. And if joe the program has been doing just that. It was almost breathtaking whenever i woke up one morning and i got my federal receiver, my first receivers license in the mail. And that gave me permission to actually take fish off my boat. Once we started to be able to sell it opened things up a bit. Because now that we have that federal permit and i was able to pepetition the city council and getting permission from San Francisco to actually use the dock and to sell fish here it was a big turning point. Because we really didnt think or know that wed get such a positive response from the public. And so were getting thousands of people coming down here buying fish every week and so thats pretty cool. They like the fish so much that they take pictures of it when they cook it and they send us all of these pictures and then they ask us you know constantly for certain types of fish now. And when they come down here the one thing that they say is that theyre so amazed that the fish is so fresh they could eat a little bit during the week and its still fresh all week in the refrigerator. So thats really cool. The fish is very fresh and the price is super. I dont think that you can get it anywhere in the bay area. I can see it and i can stir fry it wow you can do anything you want. I just can say this is a good place to shop and you have a good experience. This Program Supports the Strategic Plan in terms of engagement, people being connected to the waterfront, and also economic vitality. Because its helping the fishermen to make ends meet. They have no guarantees in their businesses, not like some people and we want to do everything that we can to help them to have a good and thriving business. How does it feel to be able to sell your fish locally kind of in the traditional way like your grandfather probably did . When i was a kid and i used to work in my dads fish market a lot of the markets that we sell to now are second and third and fourth generation markets. So i remember as a kid putting their tags on the boxes of fish that we shipped out of monterey and ship down to l. A. So its kind of cool that were still dealing with the same families. And this is probably about the only way that anyone can really survive in california is to sell your own fish. One of the advantages of this program is the Department People that pull in the fish, they can find out where they caught it and find out more about the fisherman and that adds to their experience. The feedback from the fishers has been very good and the feedback from the customers have very good. And theres a lot of people coming to the wharf now that might not have done so. In fact theres people that go through the neighboring restaurants that are going to eat fish inside but before they go in they see the action on the dock and they want to kind of look at whats happening on the boat before they go in and they have a meal. So its generated some conversation down at the wharf and thats a good thing. As you can see by the line forming behind me getting ready to buy fish, the Pilot Program has been a huge success.

In our seven mile by seven mile city we have over 210,000 properties and close to 90 of their are residential like the homes you and i live in, so you might ask, how can we possibly value all these properties . Well to better understand our work, we need to explain the states proposition 13 law. In 1978, california voters passed proposition 13. Under prop 13, we value your property at market value when you first buy it. Every year after, that value goes up by the c. P. I. Or the California Consumer price index. But if the c. P. I. Is more than 2 , prop 13 caps the increase at 2 . Well walkthrough the maximum increases prop 13 would allow. Lets take a home with initial value of 400,000. In the second year your assessed value grows by a maximum of 2 growing from 400,000 to 408,000. In year three, that 408,000 is increased by 2 to roughly 416,000. Every year the value grows by the maximum rate of 2 and that is called your prop 13 value. Keep in mind as time goes by your prop 13 value may not be the same as market rate. What do we mean by that . Lets say over the last ten years home prices in San Francisco have gone every roughly 10 every year. Despite that your prop 13 value is capped at 2 growth creating a difference between your market value and prop 13 value. Know that the value recessed when theres a change in ownership. A change in ownership means that the property has a new zoner. Maybe through a new owner. Maybe through a sale a gift or adding or dropping names through title. At that time the home will be assessed a new market rate. That value becomes a new starting point for the property. Just like before the Growth Continues to be limited at 2 until the next transfer happens. Remember, the new owners are responsible for paying taxes at the new level from the first day that they own it. Value might also be added when construction happens on your property. That would be another instance when growth in your value might exceed 2 . Here we would add the value of construction on top of your existing prop 13 value. Every july well let you know what your assessed value is by sending you a letter called a notice of assessed value. You can use that information to estimate your property taxes early. Please note that a separate office called the treasurer Tax Collectors Office will send you a letter in october and theyre responsible 230r collections.

As they grew up in in a how would that had access to good food and our parent cooked this is how you feed yours this is not happening in our country this is a huge pleasure im david one of the cofounder so about four year ago we worked with the serviced and got to know the kid one of the things we figured out was that they didnt know how to cook. I heard about the Cooking School through the Larkin Academy a. Their noting no way to feed themselves so theyre eating a lot of fast food and i usually eat whatever safeway is near my home a lot of hot food i was excited that i was eating lunch enough instead of what and eat. As i was inviting them over teaching them basic ways to fix good food they were so existed. Particle learning the skills and the food they were really go it it turned into the is Charity Foundation i ran into my friend we were talking about this this do you want to run this Charity Foundations and she said, yes. Im a cofound and executive director for the cooking project our best classes participation for 10 students are monday theyre really fun their chief driven classes we have a different guest around the city theyre our stand alone colas we had a series or series still city of Attorneys Office style of classes our final are night life diners. Santa barbara shall comes in and helps us show us things and this is one the owners they help us to socialize and ive been here about a year. We want to be sure to serve as many as we can. The San FranciscoCooking School is an amazing amazing partner. It is doing that in that space really elevates the space for the kids special for the chief that make it easy for them to come and it really makes the experience pretty special. Im sutro sue set im a chief 2, 3, 4 San Francisco. Thats what those classes afford me the opportunity it breakdown the barriers and is this is not scary this is our choice about you many times this is a feel good what it is that you give them is an opportunity you have to make it seem like its there for them for the taking show them it is their and they can do that. Hi, im antonio the chief in San Francisco. The majority of kids at that age in order to get them into food they need to see something simple and the evidence will show and easy to produce i want to make sure that people can do it with a bowl and spoon and burner and one pan. I like is the receipts that are simple and not feel like its a burden to make foods the cohesives show something eased. I go for vera toilet so someone cant do it or its way out of their range we only use 6 ingredients i can afford 6 ingredient what good is showing you them something they cant use but the sovereignties what are you going to do more me youre not successful. We made a vegetable stirfry indicators hed ginger and onion that is really affordable how to balance it was easy to make the food we present i loved it if i having had access to a kitchen id cook more. Some of us have never had a kitchen not taught how to cookie wasnt taught how to cook. I have a great appreciation for programs that teach kids food and cooking it is one of the healthiest positive things you can communicate to people that are very young. The more programs like the cooking project in general that can have a positive impact how our kids eat is really, really important i believe that everybody should venting to utilize the kitchen and meet other kids their age to identify theyre not alone and their ways in which to pick yours up and move forward that. It is really important to me the opportunity exists and so i do everything in my power to keep it that. Well have our new headquarters in the heart of the tenderloin at taylor and kushlg at the end of this summer 2014 were really excited. A lot of the of the conditions in San Francisco they have in the rest of the country so our goal to 257bd or expand out of the San Francisco in los angeles and then after that who know. Wed never want to tell people want to do or eat only provide the skills and the tools in case thats something people are 2rrd in doing. You cant buy a box of psyche you have to put them in the right vein and direction with the right kids with a right place address time those kids dont have this you have to instill they can do it theyre good enough now to finding out figure out and find the future for.
