Approvement act . And what other benefits are being experienced . Um as far as benefits of the Sandy Recovery reimprovement act is a very important tool and the other lesson that we have learned from is the events of katrina is that there are certain types of projects that are technically difficult that exceed the average capacity for people to manage and you need expert so we engage very early. And identify where the projects will be whether they are hospitals or other large public infrastructures. We brought in a lot of experts. It wasnt until you passed a Sandy Recovery improvement act that we had the resolution had we been using an old program and using actual costs, there would have been more uncertainty for the application cant on what they could and could not do. It would have been more overhead in making those decisions and they would not have had the ability to get what they were going to get from us and move forward. As it is we have obligated the majority of those funds. The
More financial cost savings to the city but unfortunately i dont have direct access to negotiate those deals which is why im going to be supporting the chiefs recommendation. I need these officers. I need their support. I need their enthusiasm in my district. I need a consistency. More importantly, and a more recent example not recent but a couple of years ago i remember because of our developed relationship with a lot of our Housing Authority cops, there was a time when one of our young people had a shotgun; he was being chased by someone, a Police Officer who didnt actually know him and definitely would have been shot at the other Police Officer who eventually joined him, had he not stop him, and hold up for a minute. Let me deal with it. Within the department as a whole regardless of additional revenues or not to be that kind of department. I know that chief has been that kind of Police Officer his entire career. I know he has a desired to try to make sure that new officers, current
Could better use elsewhere. Having been pretty much in every Staffing Committee that the Police Department has had over 32 years i have to respectfully this agree with ms. Campbell. Wednesdays is also a day when we scheduled things like this summer it will be midnight asked about. We take full advantage of the fact that we have additional housing officers on those days and the officers well into the evening utilizing some of the overtime to do just that, to try to engage folks that would otherwise be engaged in less productive activity. Supervisor breed from a community perspective, i didnt really understand the details of exactly why one point the San Francisco Housing Authority was paying this additional fee in order to have the same support in terms of what i believe everyone else should have in the city. I was concerned also that because initially this money was coming from Public Housing that with the challenges that we will be facing in the next couple of years we need to save ev

I know he has a desired to try to make sure that new officers, current officers, bring that same level of commitment to the people of San Francisco. We definitely need to do more work around making sure that there is more of a connection, more of a Community Policing model. Our entire city, we need to work on that. This is really challenging decision for me because i think about of course ways to utilize these resources.

Within the department as a whole regardless of additional revenues or not to be that kind of department. I know that chief has been that kind of Police Officer his entire career.
