So Law Enforcement assistance diversion to work with individuals with nonviolent related of offenses to offer an alternative to an arrest and the county jail. We are seeing reduction in drugrelated crimes in the pilot area. They have done the program for quite a while. They are successful in reducing the going to the county jail. This was a state grant that we applied for. The department is the main administrator. It requires we work with multiple agencies. We have a community that includes the da, Rapid Transit police and San Francisco Sheriffs Department and Law Enforcement agencies, Public Defenders Office and adult probation to Work Together to look at the population that ends up in criminal justice and how they will not end up in jail. Having partners in the nonprofit world and the public defender are critical to the success. We are beginning to succeed because we have t
Leadership to improve these vehicles. And we try to address concerns and some of the improvements that we have already made. I also shared by email this board and a response to a recent article that talks about white out for the cameras, and unfortunately, i believe there were several inaccuracies to that article. One of which is that the issue of glare is not unique to the l. R. P. Four or the fact that we use cameras instead of mirrors. The glare is most acute at west portal, which is why 15 years ago, we actually put up a convex mirror to provide additional availability visibility for our operators, which is part of how they are currently trained. [please stand by] we have, as part of the costing package that we originally brought to you, we have some place holder costs for what we anticipate things to be, so Something Like the flat wheels, which is an issue that both operators and mechanics have been raising for a long time are already built into that overall package that we brough
So many families, and i know that, you know, when you say, you know, you have a family of four making 200,000 a year, people think, oh, my god, 200,000 a year is a lot, but just think about it. With kids, with the expense of living in the city, it is even hard to save money to put a down payment on a home in the first place. So having an option like this can be absolutely incredible. So we in San Francisco have made a lot of changes. We have put 600 dollar 40 will housing bond, the largest Affordable Housing bond without raising property taxes, that will provide Additional Support for programs like this so that we can really get to a lot of our middle income residents and get to our educators and or Public Safety officials, and the people that are really struggling to afford to live here to making sure they there are easy ways to get access to resources.

Its the first step to change that, but the first step to make that more equitable for all students. I want to underscore that i see this as a positive development. Thank you, staff, for making this possible. So how long is a trimester and how is that going to work . Every 1
There is a Mental Health crisis here in San Francisco and i know that we often times hear that were being thrown around loosely. But the fact is that as someone who grew up in San Francisco and know that we have had challenges in this city, including issues around homelessness, what i see is something that ive never seen in my lifetime of growing up in the city and that is people who are in serious, serious crisis. Serious need. And the fact is, in San Francisco, the frustration is that we have a lot of resources. We have a lot we have a lot of dedicated revenues to help spousht support people, but we have discovered that the coordination has to be better and more efficient to really help people that we know are struggling.
