commissioner president covington and members of the commission. >> thank you. >> can everyone hear mr. corso? >> try it again. >> thank you very much. >> okay good morning, again the item on the agendas before you is approval and distribution of the it budget want to briefly go through the departments proposal some of the work in the current year and opening for any questions you may have. >> give you a little bit of background only the process that is not the total departments budget proposal before you this is strictly question and answer capita and it they grow a different process their approval date is earlier this is this friday the 13 and 2, 3, 4 advance of normal budget in february. >> so these projects are submitted by the department into overall two separate one for capital through the capital planning committee this project was vested and incorporated into the capital budget included in the mayor's office for both budgets and similarly the capital we have our it budget that goes through coit committee on information technology similar process that citywide the departments present and gives me justification and information on the proposal then consolidated into overall it imputing that is part of mayor's office budget. >> so we'll start with capital and some of the falths issues as many of you know, we have many facility issues over the department through the great work of the easter bond on the funding and on the information side so what's before you are project that are currently not prompted and part of the easter bond? project funding we completed dpw completed and part of 2014 the more recent one an assessment of the department that was great gave us information we were not able to more in depth studies for the facilities so we have more information that was great and determined more issues to be resolved based on the projects we're looking at hundreds of millions of of backlog a seismic rirtsz both the easter bond and the current bonds as well as the future projected bonds with that, outside of easter bonds limited resources trying a number of alternative funding sources through the capital be it granted or be that working with the cost-share the puc but other than we're pleating with other city departments for general fund so given the current environment and the physique realities it is challenging. >> so here is what we the department was allocated last year's budget for the current fiscal year and the next fiscal year i'll go through those briefly general facility maintenance and fuel tanks and apparatus doors and exhaust g tractors and generators those are funded and cover some of the maintenance and remainder of issues that pop up during the year not necessarily the respect that is cost permissible given the bucket we're allocated on the capital side closing out the 2010 capital bond with the ticket items and we're also beginning the planning and construction on the 2040 easter bond projections we completed an upgrade of the tracking system with the federal funding fuming grants and working as i mentioned with the puc on replacement of boilers i currently work done shortly at 8 stations to replace 8 boilers with the cost of the imp we've leverage some the capital from additional arrears or resources from the puc for energy efficiency we for the bureau the first prevention rooted station 45 for over the past years they've adam personnel out grown the space we have and headquarters and behind the scene the tracking and internal tracking system we've made updates and work with the departments on the facility issues. >> this next slide the next thing two are similar to the previous years and this is for the next two-year budget this is quite substantial didn't cover all the facility needs but addresses quite a bit of in in addition what is done on the easter bond over the next cover of years on the replacements just to repair leaks that led to further damage and not maintained correctly the exterior envelope painting a lot of stations not touched in years and windows and showers similar issues with regards to water left unattended further issues down the line and mechanical and air conditioning has a lot of stations the infrastructure for those facilities are quite old and need to be maintained properly and upgradeed emergency generators those are the back up power stations the x trademarks continue the maintenance and repair the electrical a big-ticket item from one of the latter projects a lot of the electrical stations are outdated and not sufficient to handle the needs for today's water and fire stations we're continuing to do electrical repairs and working with dpw to renovate, upgrade the electrical systems to handle the both the electrical for example, we're installing heavy duty washer and a lot of stations need to handle those machines and equipment and also it extends to the it structure so there is a lot of kind of infrastructure needs are that have not been go of and needs of equipment have changed over the years these are not addressed the sidewalk are liability issues due to the sidewalks soushd the stations that the department is responsible for we need to repair those for liability perspective kitchens too a lot of kitchens are not updated and cabinet are in need of repair a lot of them are in need of upgrading. >> apparatus bay door during the course of easter bond we will need to renovate, upgrade all apparatus doors in addition regular issues that pop out and maintenance issues so this is needed funding the data structure upgrades related to the electrical as i mentioned the wiring in the stations is quite outdated and forward in the future we're addressing that in station that are rebuilt but for most of stations we do have an outdated kind of wiring infrastructure that can't handle technical robots today and oxygen in a number of stations the chief residents need quite a bit of work there are a number of basic maintenance issues but upgrading of the kitchen and other facilities that has been kind of not been addressed through the capital needs and currently not addressed in the bonding program either in addition to the last major focus is the upgrades for the boilers arrest as i understand were we working with the puc to do the replacement we're burger to replace we'll continue maintenance proposing some of the work with the department of public health on the long term scope of projects one a training facility studies we're currently work with the easter bond on the fire commission and the department has a lot of stations excuse me - properties that are not front line the headquarters with the department working with dpw we're invasively the needs of department for those facilities as well one of those are training we've been doing quite a bit of work with dpw and assessing our needs for the training we're getting funding for that in addition to the equipment for the long-term goal for the fire department to transition the new ems facility that was built and we're able to transition on evans what that means any repurposing of the facility that will be needed to accommodate that that needs to be studied what the department is proposing additional funding and as well as some the electrical and it infrastructure wiring to get a better scope of the individual stations and their capabilities are. >> moving to it is a number of budget initiatives over the past two years ramp up the itself staffing that is great for the department taken awhile for the hiring of it positions currently we have one vacant we're trying to fill but we updated the number of staff that's been great we're those people are needed to support the infrastructure so for the department for it and on as i mentioned the exam portion some of the wiring and other network infrastructure is not sufficient to maintain proper demand for the departments today and so with that, is limited funding similar to the capital funding for itself we're looking to mediate with other departments that's presents financial issues and then the other it project we're working on around consolidation of data but for department use and across the city agencies a concerted effort to have the ability to share amongst 9 departments a lot of the departments do their own formatting from the departments across the department and a working group to help we're actively participating in that. >> a brief review of the approved projects the first two are projects in previous years and hopefully in this fiscal year those are the installation of vehicle modems on apparatus that allows for wifi and mobile data for the apparatus that is the dispatch information to communicate with the radio and dispatch center we've not replaced those in years we're in the process of completing and an upgrade to business intelligence for data capacities for the department. >> some of the current projects advantages the installation of vehicle modems that will continue and working in a much improved relationship with the it we've meet about regularly and they've been a great partner rolling out a number of projects and moving forward and saw wifi installed it at fulsome and treasure island training it is in process at headquarters and will be rolling out to the fire commission thank you for that and in addition their working with us maybe for the network security issues that we're matching up with citywide is working to improve over the past few years we've deployed mobile devices to the county and smart phones those kinds of things so we work with dpw to establish a mobile network and looking to improve that anything we feel can help assist the members in the field from that perspective we're looking forward to increasing the efforts i mentioned that some of the fir prevention are ceo is working to complete implement a prevention platform so that's a lot of work but will be of great use to the members of the fire prevention for inspectors and permits, etc. and on the back end for revenue and also we're working closely with the mayor's office dbi, and also city planning on a number of data transparent projects internally and for public perspective not perspective about but for public transparent so members of the public can clear very readily available access to information about buildings sections, etc. and also a number of citywide projects that are going on in the city the city is going on an overhaul of the system how things work on the ic side to make sure that coding and everything else is coded correctly working on this and i mentioned the data group just a better overall data approach and that's headed by the mayor's office on data and a number of citywide initiatives regarding security for networks that d t is spearheading we're working closely with them on and back to the proposal for the next two years the first projection is incident play boards ios are installed at stations we have one on station 7 and the feedback is positive essential readily available on this board and the facilities that when a dispatch comes in the dispatch information is displayed on the board the board comes across on the radio to get a head start on the information on the incident we received some positive feedback and working like to implement that in a number of stations as well and share point an initiative from as part of software products 23 - it allows for increased communication and collaboration amongst the working groups and committees there's a lot of practical use for this we don't have expertise in deploying that we've been working closely with e t and coit the working group to secure funding to start some of that dmoult to get distances and we referred to that in order to roll that out department-wide and training simulator we've discussed in a few meeting internally some of the technology available today, there are a number of fire training similarities that of great use to simulate real life incidents without having one we think is safer but allows the department members to improve decision making and have a better exposure to certain events and scenarios in of the technology available would be the models that are out on the market a expressive so the department will be supplementally that to the training program and in addition mobile network consultant services to make sure that with all the mobile devices were deploying their integrated with regular it infrastructure that our nebltd is secure and data can be moved forward across appropriated appropriating and requesting consolidation work with that, i'd like to answer any questions that anybody any have. >> thank you mr. corso. >> any public comment on the chief financial officers report seeing none, public comment is closed. and i will go to my fellow commissioners starting with commissioner vice president cleaveland >> thank you, madam chair and at the mr. corso it is interesting i think the department really has a lot of infrastructure needs particularly in the electrical and the it areas i had a couple of questions one when you're working with dpw do they have dedicated people that work with us we have work orders to expedite the process as i will say officially no, no personnel that are assigned to the fire department but on the administration side depending on 9 scope of work we're looking at different bureaus within dpw that will be doing the work not necessarily the same plumber of electricians. >> substantially we can request our own people. >> i think we could as part of budget requests that's come up in the budget discussion and the strategic about having individuals assigned to particularly to the fire department employees to handle that work. >> and the second question how much input in the stations to their stations for the people working in the fire commission do this is a communication with their supervisors or its is really crappy what do they have any input. >> so i believe and and defer to achieve but the station captain is in favor of the station and work through some of the internal systems we have cruise are able to submit requests and issue to support services division to review and prioritize as far as needs i think we have a number of folks on the easter bond and in support services that get feedback to the users and in addition dpw personnel doing assessments as part of bond to review the extract system all the things that the fire commission do. >> so input from fire commission captains they prioritize within their organization. >> yes. >> has they've been an opportunity to talk about the training similarities to get them online faster. >> we've not talked about that but we can look at the roeblthd of that internally i don't know if they're available for lease but something - and the other thing any opportunity by bulk we're talking about kitchen retrofits and a lot of opportunity to look at defining the kitchen equipment you know in a larger order and effects the cost of each one. >> absolutely on the easter side they have a money but do when they do envelopes even if projects they put them together in order to do that a lot of the issues at the station everything is different so in size wise so not exactly not as easy as we like it to be but to the extent before ord items we try to look at that to leverage it. >> in terms of the transparency of information from the fir prevention to the public that is critical he especially getting more information than before is there any cost sharing with dbi i know the cost-share was sfpuc do we do that with dbi are they helping with the funds transparency. >> absolutely, absolutely i don't mean to interrupt you their funding the positions as well as con traushl services a platform where kufrpt dbi and planning we're going to be part of that where members of the public can review an address and see all the corresponding information for inspectors but dbi and fire, etc. by address we're working closely with that they funded a portion of that as well as some of the positions we have to address that to the mist administrator what's your best estimate how much of this proposal we will actually receive. >> so you're correct i can't answer that but i'll say in recent years we've received 340ir from $600,000 to 3 and a half million dollars per capita one of the things in light of some of the city's budget issues this year that both the capital and it programs will be are potentially look ated of being reduced from last year this is not just us but citywide that is something point mayor's office will be looking at as they ramp up to their budget where those programs fit overall but current year we've been approved for 2 and a half million dollars and something close to that was approved last year for this year's budget process for next year process as well so we're hoping to maintain that and not reduce that grow if we could obviously given some of the fiscal realties not just the fire department but the committee in general. >> the department shouldn't expect more than 2 and a half million dollars. >> yeah. i don't know about exceptions we'd like to maintain. >> thank so much. >> thank you commissioner vice president cleaveland. >> at this time ladies and gentlemen, i ask your dislocates so indulgence 0 we can recall items 4 we have guests they want to celebrate and come back to the financials okay. thank you very much madam secretary. >>

lost suzy loftus she's working with public safety so thank you very much and appreciate all you do and police officers i've heard on the way down i have a lunch i had to drive but 86 percent of police officers polled last year feel much unsavory on their job than in the past that's rejectable that was something i heard about the fire departments across the country it is upsetting to hear about the police department there is a lot of work to be done to support police officers in this country and next year hope that falls down thank you for all you do. >> thank you commissioner hardeman i want to

believe commissioner nakajo had some questions for mr. corso. >> thank you very much madam president director corso thank you for your presentation just for a point find clarification corso are you looking for an brawl of this submittal for the it budget. >> yes, sir. so we can submit by the deadline of friday. >> all right. having reviewed this material and having heard our narrative part of 24 for the public and the commission this is an intense large list it breaks down it category gisz and talks about the replacement and identifying i'll talking about the worksheet with the showers and mechanics and emergency generators, exhaust x trademarks and electrical, door maintenance and kitchens and sidewalks and infrastructure upgrades on page 5 of your working budget sheet and not numbered but page 5 has a listing of all applications and director corso on the information i need to say we have presently 44 stations >> not a comprehensive list some are actual stations when they're either remodels some of the issues are addressed when their rebuilt is and some of the issues are addressed those stations represent not necessarily all the department stations but all stations not going to be addressed through the easter bond or some other means. >> so director corso is this list comprehensive in terms of the total i know you asked this to include all the station my point and question is 24 list contemporary as can be in terms of the needs of various station. >> yes, sir. we've been working closely with dpw and another point while those numbers seem big we're not making up those off the top of my head to review the situation and each project and developed some estimates we've incorporated. >> the flavor felt commission we wanted to have a comprehensive picture as to what the departments looks like in terms of maintenance or capital requests and we wanted that list to be realistic close to realistic as possible with cost attachment i believe did vice president asked did question in terms of support services being involved with the district that it seems to me this list compromises the contemporary needs but constantly rising this list and in the department of supporters services i believe are in communication with the various stations and the captains and stations that if possible again my flavor of contention to make sure that we have an up to date comprehensive list what costs and that's a different question in terms of what realistically will you see compared to cost. >> correct. correct it is fair to say that's the costs we're needing. >> that's part of reality but know what you're numbers and needs are not like we are starting over and began something we've been working with at this point do you want chief rivera to speak to this question of updated maintenance or is that comprehensive. >> we've worked closely with the support staff but if you have any comments you can come up. >> okay. >> i wanted to afford the opportunity to chief rivera that's my inning this is as comprehensive as possible part of this capital request years past did we always include an it portion. >> that's a relatively new project as a result of some of the work with dpw and the department of technology and upgrades for dispatch and poped up on our side saying our system can't support many of the initiatives and i appreciate this comprehensive report and for the public if they want to see how much quote/unquote the department to run itself we're talking about on a surface delivery it is far from what we like in terms of our particular needs to showers yours and x tractors in terms of capital request is that the budget of the mayor's office we're submitting this to or who are we submitting. >> technically to the capital planning committee that is essentially a department itself and then they work with the mayor's office on an overall capital budget for the city that is a piece of the mayors overall budget and support. >> does that committee prepare to receive the kinds of requests in terms of acknowledging it and correct that's a discussion as far as the scope of some of the requests this is similar to what we are submitted and director corso i want to point out to the commissions this it request information technology is something we have been talking about and be a modern department or have vehicle respect or members coming into the department but your confusion if we are not accurate it didn't help us within the goals we want to achieve concerns of conversation and are coordination and i'll be interested in how we precede with that incident perhaps at the at a later date the commissioners might be able to hear that example of an education how proficient this work is. >> absolutely. >> madam president that's all i have. >> thank you commissioner walker commissioner nakajo. >> commissioner hardeman. >> first of all, mr. corso i thought you as a a child understand math and numbers but that's the easiest part of our job you can swift there that most of numbers off the top of your head given a test because but for you to break down the way you do to understand that is the difficult part that's the learning process for you also numbers are not leaning by the proof of that i commend you to go through each item remember exactly what you did that's remarkable thank you. >> thank you for that we have the right person in the job. >> on the chiefs residents i think i asked you this a couple years ago the square footage size chief. >> proximate. >> chief rivera would that that. >> not off the top of my head his. >> when you look at the numbers i was talking to any wife a couple of days ago our home for 38 years now we've spent more on the home than we paid for it and not added a square inch when you see those numbers and you're a homeowner you understand when you have to replace this and everything has to be replaced and maintained but a very significant member of government of san francisco is ragging on saturday night why not get rid of the scoping that's something that has to be thought about you i don't have an opinion one way or another but somebody with the figures said it will be expensive if we did it anyway playing with others numbers the final analysis i hope the chief do r doesn't this and number one the safety of the firefighter making a decision of how to spend the money we know we need roots but anything related to the personal safety of a firefighter the money gets allocated their sure the chief feels that way too that's my vote thank you. >> thank you commissioner hardeman. >> mr. corso thank you for your report. >> i want to say that i think we need a little bit of clarification on the question do you want to ask it again. >> thank you thank you, madam chair a quick question a total needs we're asking for is $40 million; is that correct what's the total we're asking for infrastructure upgrades this year and what do we expect. >> the total request the department is putting forward would be the $9 million over two years. >> okay. >> that's not representative of the total need of department it represents so dpw did an assessment when you incorporate all these types of projects schematic or ada upgrades as a result of some of the work looking at hundreds of millions of in that regard we're requesting 98 or $99 million for those projects and in addition, this does not incorporate all the work that is scheduled as part of the easter bond or health bond any of the bonds those are separate as well this is our request when you're talking about your anticipation for funding will be for example, last year, i i believe we submitted in the range of 90 or $95 million and looked like 2 and a half million dollars was approved in the budget. >> that's a comparison we have one hundred million dollars of needs and $3 million you applied to. >> correct but not necessarily to say we had $200 million of needs we'll get the monies but looked at holistically i think that some of the repairs are viewed as being i don't want to say covered but dealt with within the easter program it is not realty a lot of things that pop union street up and due to the scope and total costs not in the scheduled easter bond programs scheduled there. >> the capitalized funding committee understands the critical services fire and police and ems and sfpuc need to be funded more quickly than the infrastructure needs. >> absolutely we're all sweet spot for the general fund budget all the health and departments overall the capital budget outside of any enterprise funding or inside funding the general fund is in the range of $25 million citywide that will be obviously not sufficient for all the needs as well any other departments. >> so is suffice it to say we have a lot more needs than money to apply. >> correct. >> thank you. >> and just to add historically that's been the case commissioners i'm going to excuse deputy director corso i

commissioners and chief my reporting period or period from november 1st to december 31st, 2016, since the reporting period two greater alarms first a second alarm on november at the 7:12 p.m. the one story garage was involved and first on scene did a good job first garage was attacked and minor damage to the two buildings on each side the second on december 16th at one 25 one of the home sharings high-rises at - the flames were you coming out of the window we are inexpensive it was spreading to the 8 floor it didn't and the high-rises are built of cement we contain them we think they did a good job other incidents fire alarm at hallow way and december 6th another first alarm a community building multiple rescues of reptiles were done and reptiles the community appreciated and a lot of rescues when we acknowledged the police department a 13 sole purpose this is different a 13-year-old boy collapsed because the cardiac and we evaluated with the after cpr the boy is back home and early morning 2:00 a.m. a cliff rescue u.s. coast guard the fire department and national park services rescued this with high wind they did a good job on december 16th as well a major closing vehicle i believe the chief respondent to this a bus 14er89 with multiple patients a red alarm was declared with a successful rescue 10 victims. >> and december 19th we rescued a female trapped under that vehicle on 3 and market street on december 28th and 29 an odor throughout the city in the news still undetermined we have our - that's not been clarified as of yet on december 29th a first alarm and rescued a 90-year-old male that is under investigation on december 30th another first alarm on scott street one male saved with anywhere injuries under investigation and the chief said new year's eve we pulled the switch we have bls unit ronda huge change of scope regarding the scope on a basis but that is up 5 percent that is a huge number and december was the biggest month for us so a lot of the returns are code 2 if we can get a bls that will be a change of scope i want to talk about that and hope to work on that community outreach we continue to do the homeless escape report on social media and they condition to targeted the ocean beach the cliff rescue units provide animal safeties a lot of the rescues start as dog rescues the dogs get caught on the cliff and we have to save the owners and dogs keep our dogs on a leash like the share unfortunate responses on social media thank you sffd thank you, thank you, thank you for all the equipment by cranky george a big thank you for the quick response to the alarm on second story the last one i'll never watch but thank you for your quick responses and my boyfriend is alive because of you on to ems in november our ambulance responded to 89 response under 10 minutes that's okay. we grasp 75 percent of market share and received ambulances in that most on november 5th rc four was moved out we have rc-44 of them and it start for rc a bump up graduation 16 graduated and continued to meeting with filipino and along with the support services concerning the new station 49 at the started the sews using the arc room eave talked about not using one machine but hold the rest of the process takes a big workload we're happy the rc-4 as acting maloy and the chief were part that of that it works well. >> in december our response times was 86 or 10 minutes that went up not much we can do the call line went way up like i said other creative ways to come up with in years going forward with van ness and the state i don't see it going down our population is growing the traffic conditions with getting worse and all we need like we'll get more rain that will happen as well so all the facts and circumstances are they effect the response time and it is in the just about throwing anymore resources by responding flavorable in my opinion a lot of the code 3 are on the code 2 and go to code 3 calls we need to look at that. >> on to the working with the fire marshall with the mta and rivera working often turk street trying to put a a bike - they are a bus line it goes down there there are wires on the right side of the street we gave them choice we came together on 8 and 9 street and our operations went out there and listened to us we have a good solution we're working on this one and hopefully come to a - we want to solution that works for operations a fire can happen in my building on this street the wires are right hand impede to put more restrictions where we can work is not good hopefully that will come to fruition over the next month. >> and included in my report it is permits and inspectors as well as the upgrades for both and be fire marshall de cossio developed a document for the battalion chief in the field a chief chief speaks for itself examples when they go to places on the r two video inspection should be ousted this month thank you as of 2016 we're having open proclamation reports is one

concludes my report. >> thank you chief gonzales to now we've heard both reports ask there any public comment on the report given by cholgz chief gonzales public comment is closed. i will go to commissioner vice president cleaveland. >> thank you, madam chair and both for your report a couple of questions you have the one and 21st academy what is the graduation date for that. >> april 14th. >> okay. and is that determined where and whatnot. >> not at that time. >> the homeless effect on the fire department any kind of discussion about the impacts and you know quite a few the quantum shotgun what that is doing for the department. >> i can grab that information i guess a summary. >> the fiscal and time. >> calls to homeless and encampments. >> fire and medical included. >> you talked about chief the station 49 when you call the ambulance deployment center some deputies from dpw what is it on track in terms of designed and . >> so new facilities and we agreed to meet towards the end of this month we met with mohammed nuru and the department of public works they have an allocation for the dpw of this facility at this time there are some projections that could possibly exceed $44 million so they're coming piling those reports and seeing we wanted to make sure the facility does get done to the exception that we have articulated and so we are going to meet towards the end of the month for them to give us a more robust disclosure of the cost. >> so the property has been purchased. >> that's my understanding. >> so the definition permits have not been pulled. >> that's what i understand and i'll keep them to that promise. >> code detector chief gonzales that's. >>are you going to have folks come together to determine what a 9-1-1 call >> i can't make that autonomous decision and i don't think i should there should be a meeting the minds and we'll strive to do that we do that everyday anyway. >> as well as the code recall how you do that. >> yes. the resources we send, etc. >> i think that is very important. >> with all the call volume going up we need to know exactly and our people needs to know how to set those determinations two or three. >> i agree. >> and that call volume report i've not seen it yet. >> thank you very much both of you for your report. >> okay. thanks again chief gonzales. >> president. >> commissioner hardeman has a question. >> i don't ha have much to sa but chief was appointed to. >> promoted from battalion chief to assistant chief and draushth received a problems and 5 other temporary battalion chiefs or permanent. >> the two permanent assistant chiefs and 5 permanent battalion chiefs. >> that's terrific he like to see the promotes and especially chief gala was in training to see him step back and come forward is reassuring. >> and correct i didn't mention the 5 battalion chiefs off the top of my head are terry, battalion chief jim, battalion chief paul crawford and battalion chief frank. >> thank you you e-mailed me that i did not remember the names. >> thank you for the good job and yet we'll be busy roirnl everything chief gonzales. >> okay commissioner nakajo. >> thank you chief joanne hayes-white for your report chief gonzales in our operation report greater alarms not this year i'm not sure if i - i thought we had an alarm with an injury to a citizen is that something that will come up in the next report. >> maybe a january report. >> okay. that was last week commissioner. >> okay. so we'll see that coming up i wanted to find out the status and chief gonzales in terms of emergency medical services november, december he know you're aware of how much we pay attention to that ambulance responded on the scene in november '89 percent under 10 minutes a number of ambulances share in december 86.7 under 10 minutes and then you noted the busiest most of the medical calls 6 thousand 5 hundred and commissioner vice president cleaveland mad remarks do you want to give me a little bit more explanation to what you're talking about looking at that with some energy or suggestion. >> well, a huge change of scope would be to add an b with the medical director to address the high we anticipate the high number of calls an new year's eve we can't do that for all-time i housing stock think that needs to be looked at there are an awful love calls i don't want to go to the resources and don't have the code 3 resources anymore so it would be a huge undertaking that is i'm hoping for the dialogue i think that needs to be done and again, i can't change that by myself like to talk with the responsible parties the state allowing us to do it could be huge. >> okay chief gonzales i'm assuming at some point a dialogue on that within the commission and yourself in terms of having a little bit more help on that. >> and plan on talking hopefully with the provider group next meeting and seeing what the steps would be and what are the possibilities of that happening maybe a little bit not a whole change but something that helps to ease the pain a little bit. >> i'll be looking forward for the information in terms of your suggestions of what effect it has upon us before i move from that subject part of dispatch call in terms of what the determination from an internal call injury. >> the call types of are determined by folks we have some input like i said some of the code 3 calls we're changed to code 2 when the units see the call a troimgd by the call taker and our units see something where they use their institutional knowledge that should be code 3 i think they should be allowed to have the discretion i when i side the flip side if the dock was up here he'd say you can't have all the calls code 3 when especially this person has died a happy memoranda to be found i don't like having the code 3 calls and no ambulance because they're on calls they shouldn't have gone to. >> i'm looking forward as well as the commission for that dialogue so we can try to do something with that as well. >> sorry to interrupt i did not address did h-3 i know you wanted to commissioner president covington. >> i was going to mention that it is actually now because all the other commissioners have spoken. >> i feel like we've gone over this item a.d. notch - when i went into this deliberations to get this done an h-3 supervisory position that was go administrative only what is asked now to make that administrative assistant that's different than a supervisor that's where we stand right now we can push the clarification without 798 but in good negotiation we're working with them before we push it out again, i'm hoping to get to completion by the end of this month but will take more. >> thank you for that i agree with you that we would have liked to come to some agreement before today but time is of the essence and the positions have been budgeted they're not yet filed and with the challenges we face and competition with other departments and the you know the fiscal realties that we you know are coming down the pike we really have to move more quickly so i suggest that myself and commissioner vice president cleaveland since we've been involved we get together with you and the chief of the department and other parties and get this done. >> thank you, ma'am. >> i know that is something that can be done without the approval of the unions but we want to show good faith effort to let them know we hear them regarding their concerns because of a time limit yo go into detail we're close with the chief that morning she said they're close let's get closer and get it done. >> absolutely. >> thank you very much chief gonzales for that. >> i wanted to ask you a little bit about response times there was a large and significant article in the chronicle this week regarded response times and 9-1-1 calls i know we've gone a grateful to get more in. >> i read the article i believe that was focused on the preservation and have their own staffing issue as well and more calls coming in not just for us fire but the police and the police have more calls and have to answer them all it would be hard for me to say what we have to do any suggestion off the top of my head i don't how we used to do it when franklin we triageed them and the chief was road we have the and they make go through that it takes more of us one thing that needs to be worked on the reception of the calls to the dispatch but they also have legal boundary that their constrained by. >> certainly but the main impediment their seriously understaffed people are working 12 to 16 hours a day and have a number of classes for training that will reduce their mandatory overtime but this is something we can go into greater detail at another time so - do you have any information regarding the event that was held for those people who are in live work spaces and may have also been in warehouses throughout the city how that joe /* yo call it a conference. >> i was not at that meeting and commissioner president covington we have an item coming up so. >> from the fire marshall might have something to add we have a public information officer that was at meeting. >> good morning fire marshall. >> i don't have delayed information but get feedback that went well the presentation that was general safety in nature not specific to the work spaces because the nature of the change is significant challenge to with safety and code requirements so with the idea that the facility a building is not going gone through the proper check in the change of the use we're in a difficult situation to make those buildings survive when they've not gone through the proper inspections but the presentation went well. >> very good chief joanne hayes-white thank you for any public comment on this item? out so lieutenant masters can you come up and give a little bit of a run down how things went. >> thank you for having me. so this was initiated by a member spike from the factory she as a live workspace in san francisco that is fairly new an amazing factory and great to see with live workspace should look like i recommend you contacting her she's concerned her community felt they were vulnerable to dangers that fires or natural disasters no matter where they live and want the information to be safe we worked collaboratively with the partners to the duckling and the arts community on - we worked face to face and worked alcoholic with dbi and held an information session the beginning of this presentation was supposed to be a power point, however, we were getting feedback they wanted a face to face presentation would you like to see the presentation that we have put together or do a face to face and they unanimously all of them voted for the q and a which we held after that meeting we had people coming up to us a gentleman that stated quote/unquote i live in a place that may or may not be illegal no matter i felt i was unsafe i would never have confronted or come up to a firefighter to ask questions he felt i could have reconstruction after this meeting you've answered all my questions i felt confident i can come to i feel we hit this well and good responses beyond that. >> and we're going to be working with that community as well as all community in san francisco how we can make the city safer especially with the new education program. >> thank you for that. >> all right. thank you again chief gonzales. >> thank you commissioner president covington. >> all right. madam secretary next item, please. >> item 7 fire commission annual statement of purpose discussion and possible action to adopt the 2015 annual statement of purpose. >> thank you is any, any member of the public that wants to comment on the statement of purpose seeing none, public comment is closed. my fellow commissioners i will go over the annual statement of purpose and read it into the record unanimous statement of purpose 2015 it is the responsibility of the fire commission to mash that the san francisco fire department effectively implements its mission the mission of the fire department is to

to review and if necessary rise the policy and procedures and 8, contribute to the common good by conducting open meetings regularly and containing additional meetings and a as seem necessary to inform and educate the gymnast fire commission and san francisco fire department. >> i will now entertain a motion for adoption. >> thank you vice president. >> seconded by commissioner hardeman all in favor, signify by saying i. >> i that is approved and adopted. >> madam secretary. >> i'm sorry. >> is any commissioner want to speak regarding our annual statement of purpose. >> okay thank you item 8 harassment prevention training for all members of the department discussion and possible action. >> good morning commissioner president covington and chief joanne hayes-white and from fire department human services so shortly after december 14, 2016, fire commission meeting i contacted the department of human services to find out the possibility of an annual department wit harassment prevention training at this point was advised of the cost that is $17 per headpiece nominal and i consulted with director corso to find out how we are presently set up for paying for this training and we don't have a specific line item or department of human services that will be something to consider setting up in the future should we go with an annual department-wide training the one challenge that the department of human services advised me was i did not realize i thought the venue and the video scenarios and he does materials were canned from the vendors but as a matter of fact they're not so every two years with the compliems year the department of human services devote three staff members with the city attorney to review all the materials from the prior compliance year and go to a tech development i couldn't get the ventilation yet and create more relevant online scenarios and even change lecture materials based on case law within the two years for example, 2018-2019 this current year a compliance bill for the procedures to dhr has given the material review and development this month for later roll out in the last quarter of 2015 to essentially the development and update takes 9 to 10 months in advance of the roll out so between december 2016 and this month we pretty much have completed the deputy department-wide training of our members and, of course, in compliance with the assembly bill and 2018-2019 being a compliance year for supervisors we will all retake the same online harassment prevention training this year later this year between november a012017 - you were thinking of recommending for the next department-wide send we pled it in 2016 and supervisors will take that this year that maybe the next department-wide could be in the next compliance year of 2019 with the understanding that the training will somehow be built in and the new recruit curriculum i'm not sure how we could because the curriculum is definitely jam packed but possibly with the 100 percent and 25 fire amendment we'll catch up hopefully for the january 2017 emt academy but definitely in the remainder of the 2017 academy to the new employees will be trained and essentially caught with the 2016 department-wide training we just completed. >> so i guess we i'm sure the chief has some to the information to add or support, however, we request that the next department-wide online training be conducted in 2019. >> okay. does that that concludes my report. >> chief anything to add. >> i don't have any other questions i think capablely gave our response and recommendation and very good. >> all right. i would like to invite in any member of the public to come forward public comment is closed. i'll go to my fellow commissioners starting with the vice president. >> thank you, madam chair one question just to clarify what you're recommending here is that the department personnel be trained every 3 years on sexual harassment equip for the new trainees in their new recruits are you suggesting every 3 years i don't understand that. >> we're actively recommending every two years but to come in side with the citywide compliance year. >> every two years. >> let's starting to do it again department-wide in 2019. >> because that coincides with the family bill compliance. >> thank you so much. >> thank you commissioner nakajo. >> thank you madam president and thank you for that presentation i concur with your report and your recommendation in terms of coming in compliance i did hear we're going to try to attempt to incorporate this with the next academy class that comes in the spirit was trying to have the members educated and again, i concur and can accept your recommendation coming within the compliance years as well so we can, updated thank you madam president. >> thank you commissioner nakajo. >> i certainly am very heart elseed by this as a possibility this an important issue something that all of members of the department uniform and non-uniform to make sure that we're on the same page in the same book and i think it will really help us have a more harmonious environment and will you know really pay lots of good dividends so 2019 sounds good i had a discussion with the chief of the department and mentioned the recruit training i thought that would be after they were assigned to their various houses it didn't have to be part of the training at the division of training unless you think that that would be more fruitful. >> for the one hundred and 21st academy that definitely sounds like a more practical option to insure that they complete the train it could be maybe even be added to the pro b book as a checklist one of the check off items but my hope is again, i have not consulted with the division of tainting but it would be nice essentially to get it out you know hopefully out before they go into the that field for example, maybe the january 17th, mta academy is too soon but have a little bit of time with the rest of the academies in 2017 to possibly find a way to incorporate this online training. >> all right. well that would be going to speaking with those at the division of training and figuring - figuring out out how to make sure we've touched everyone and the commission will have to increase go the training every year but this time two years in a row because it was mandatory if you can have some discussions with those at the division of training and have a proposed resolution that we can pass at a future meeting i think that is the way to go. >> okay. thank you. >> thank you commissioner president covington. >> thank you. >> commissioner hardeman. >> that's what i was going to suggest i don't need to speak now. >> okay. thank you commissioner hardeman and madam secretary next item. >> we're taking no action on this item. >> not today chief and other members to the division of training should have an opportunity to chime in. >> item 9 a sorry. >> there are two questions of - okay chief joanne hayes-white. >> and thanks for your support we're all in agreement that is good training and as a requirement all city supervisors in a supervisory role needs to take the training the training is beneficial for all members having said that, we're prepared for the next malia cohen you asked for a proposed resolution is that something that we will be preparing or we'll work with the commission skeet i'm not sure what the proposal will look like. >> i think after further discussion we'll see what the perimeters are and certainly include the commission concert and me and decide. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> commissioner nakajo. >> thank you madam president a technical question mr. chairing the cost of $17 what's the cost of $17 pursuant to members. >> that's correct we're indirectly billed by the department of human services depending on the final head count in a compliance year i'm sure with the department wide training we did we'll get a total bill for the number of employees that took that. >> approximately $30,000 for the department for training and obviously a quarter of that when the supervisors get the training. >> okay $17 to view a video is that what i'm hearing. >> correct that covers development costs and material costs. >> so $17 to the department of human services that has a contract with the vendor. >> okay. so who will be paying that $17 for the membership us or. >> the department each department pays the department of human services $17 per employee taking the online training and may i say something commissioner nakajo it's the same training we under went and i appreciate that but i didn't pay $17 i don't think so and - >> the chief picked up the tab. >> the department so assuming in the training costs in our general fund budget we will cover that in a work order. >> i'll comment if it is a cost $17 is something i can pay out of my own pocket if i have to out of compliance $17 times one is okay. but times 1 hundred is another issue but we're what are we paying the $17 if that's a compliance issue i'm not trying to knit pick but a deference for someone wanting a training the sexual assault training is not just for supervisors but for everybody if you're a member you'll find out our rights and need to know what your rights are working in a department such as ours i wanted to get a clarification of that and thank you for clarification thank you madam president. >> thank you commissioner nakajo. >> any other questions. >> okay madam secretary. >> item 9 report from fire marshall regarding authority and scope of bureau of fire prevention of warehouses in san francisco. >> good morning, commissioners and chief dan fire marshall before i begin i'd like to clarify and expand on the comments of the work live spaces. >> general fire safety practices is important throughout all the buildings in all types of use, etc. we need to be carefully not to give a false sense of security of people in buildings that are living in building that were not permit for that use meaning if you're building was a storage facility foe our living this is your an r-2 we need to be aware of that and not give a false sense of security i wanted to say that before i begin here. >> with regards to warehouses in san francisco what is the fire departments roll in inspecting firehouses we need to know what is our scope and regulatory authority for inspecting warehouses i will begin general overall authority with the fire department has to say and what accompanies and talk about the types of inspectors and like to wrap up with just an update on the warehouses that we have inspected to date in san francisco. >> beginning with our authority our authority is granted through the health and safety code which states implicit authenticities to the california fire marshall for occupancy in the state of california those occupy acids are a example e example i work r, c and assembly and education and schools, i institutions that is jails or can be hospitals it can be certainly on board residential facilities our residential with the exception of r-3 one and 3 dwelling units that's the planning department multi family residential unit that be our jurisdiction and l will be laboratory and high-rises 75 feet - those are the occupancies that we regulate at the local level infrastructure the overall umbrella of the state of california fire marshall. >> what is worth noting not mentions on that list b businesses. >> if you're a low rise business you're under the fire marshall example if low rise under the fire marshall m work in tile low rise didn't fall under the fire department and f factories the low rise didn't fall under the fire department jurisdiction there is a caveat any occupancy that involves when you install a sprinkler or fire alarm the fire department will review that across the board but that's it for sb and f occupancy so what types of inspectors do we conduct anything that requires a permit if you have a construction to repair our building we with those specific occupancies i mentioned in our jurisdictions we'll inspection those the question what will we do are for an f occupancy if it doesn't involve a sprinkler system that will be the end of our involvement with that building operational permits there are regulated activities in san francisco i believe 49 of them whether operating a gas station or place of assembly a dry calendars a roofing operation san francisco requires those businesses to get an annual operating permit through the fire department and then the another types of inspectors are annual that is maintenance and fire code for specific types of building rh1 and rh2 the fire department inspects them and schools every school in san francisco once a year and high-rises the jails every two years we inspect those nothing is required that requires us to inspection at the occupancy storage facilities we have approximately a thousand warehouses that are clarified as either an s stock brokerage or f factory fabrication. >> also obviously we have referrals from health department and we have complaints complaint on any occupancy any building or structure here in san francisco if it turns out not our jurisdiction we respond and investigate and inspect it and take action and refer it at the same time solicits discuss a little bit about warehouses. >> warehouses are warehouses save their absolutely save if they're not save you're using them for not intended use if you use a building every occupancy has a associated hazard all codes are developed based on what you're using your buildings for every building some occupancies requirements are more stringent depending on the level of hazards the storage facility is different at night and a public assembly people in tight quarters drinking not familiar with our environment surrounding all levels of hazards with different code requirements so san francisco we've done we rent-controlled unit to complaints to date we had 15 complaints regarding illegal use of warehouses. >> people living in them or people have parties in them or party parties, etc. on the 153 of them we issued orders to vacate i want to clarify the steps first of all, ever complaint regarding illegal use our captain code enforcement personally inspected the facility if there has been an illegal change of use you're in a hazardous use that was never submitted by a professional designer or reviewed by department of building inspection there's to issues before we give an order to vacate that's one of them, and, secondly, if you have deficient exits you're not getting out of the building it tries the level if we think there is a fire in the building the occupant will die in the building with a fire at that time we issue an order to vacate this is done 15 times and our city attorney kind of walk you through the process and we're still back and forth on this to make sure we have it right and sensitive to the fact that people potentially get displaced when we do that but our mandate to keep people safe it would be irresponsible for that us if we in and out an event in the building they'll most likely been fatalities for us not to take action a irresponsible on our part that's it i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> it is a difficult topic. >> i would like to say the fire code addresses the illegal use a section in the fire code it states unsafe and illegal change of use if an illegal use of a building shall be demonstrate unsafe and also, if a building didn't have adequate existing in the same section shall be deemed unsafe and i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you fire marshall de cossio any public comment okay public comment is closed. and i'll go to commissioner vice president cleaveland. >> thank you, madam chair and thank you fire marshall de cossio for your report this is obviously part of final hot topic in town right now how many warehouses do we have in san francisco. >> to the best of my knowledge approximately, one thousand and again, the warehouses could be clarified as a storage or factory so between the both of them it would be roughly one thousand. >> even though we'll have the terrible tragedy we've only had 1 complaints of misuse of warehouses in san francisco for occupancy. >> correct not part of our authority our scope so we responded to complaint 15 to date of which 13 orders. >> what you issue 0 notice to vacate how much time do they have to relocate and we issue an order to vacate that brings to the altercation of the people it is unsafe you shouldn't be living in the building we immediately refer to the city attorney's office at the form a task force and address it in a collaborative effort so the timing he know immediate action needs to be taken so that's the direction immediate action needs to be taken. >> what do you mean. >> means that your occupying a building unsafe the chances of you, you dying in a fire ♪ building is so high you shouldn't be occupying this building for this use >> you want to occupy the building for a storage facility that's fine not for the warehouse issues. >> you're not putting a specific time but 3 months or 3 days to get out nothing like that. >> to your point i'll give you a couple of examples one in a basement 10 beds in the basement you had to work your way to the basement one exit you probably wouldn't know where the exit was from the back there wascy form walls and bars on the windows and there was electrical chords coming through the ceiling wrapped up in tape etc. and a low ceiling 8 feet given all that i'm confident that the result it most likely will be a fatalities that's i that's one example i'm give you another example in a upholster shop in the upholster shop the have 8 beds and a makeshift ladder to a plank you literally have to walk a plank and walk down the makeshift ladder and not our building a metal door with a chain to get out those are the conditions we're dealing with for example, the fire code if you a mixed use in an r two you would have independent separated protected existing for residential so is safe for one month i'll say not for one night when is that event the imminent danger that's what we went back and forth with the city attorney's office do you know we are going to have a fire tonight or imminent fatalities someone will die if there's a fire come the gray area we want to get it right >> when you issue on notice to vacate or find buildings in violation do you issue a fine or fine the property owner for the uses. >> it is a violation of the fire code and follows our process we're issuing on nov they need to be aware. >> their notified immediately with an situation question pulled the information and drove to the owners house and hand delivered it we thought that was that urgent i want to say the that have been taken care of one in the process of going through a change of use through the planning department and will take the proper steps and the other two the basement and upholster shop those areas have been cleared. >> one thousand warehouses in the city if so it a small warehouse not suitable for people living in that but the storage areas the minnie storage areas are those considered warehouses as well. >> i don't have that kind of data. >> does dbi have that with square feet and that kind of information. >> get back with you. >> to put the community on notice your in fact, going to make sure the public is aware. >> we're open to that by only responding to the complaints and fire marshall is full of good information i appreciate the presentation that has come up there is pleating feelings about that so we operate absolutely when we say vacant and other solutions what about offend to our request about random questions that's what we collaboratively work on with other agencies and the mayor's office as well like the fire marshall said we'll be open but complaint driven only now. >> one question that was off the topic here quickly you had a wonderful presentation of the theatre talking about fire prevention and ways and means the public and people living in their homes can prevent fires is that presentation at the bravo theatre you can post so anyone in san francisco, california actually look at that and learn tips how to prevent fires wherever they're living. >> we could look at that absolutely. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> thank you commissioner vice president cleaveland commissioner nakajo. >> thank you madam president and chief thank you for your report on this important subject matter i'll follow-up on the vice president question i understand we can issue what is that an order to have the tenants vacant out of imminent danger for point of clarity who enforces that you mentioned the city attorney's office. >> correct it is received to the city attorney's office the orders to vacate and the city attorney can for next steps and action i've seen from them they want to get the other departments involved and go out there as a task inspection before taking the next steps. >> the next steps will be dealing with the folks living or work or the building owner as well. >> absolutely. >> thank you, very much. achieve and wanting. >> thank you commissioner hardeman. >> yeah. i don't have much to say fire marshall de cossio but you're doing a great job i have a familiarity with the artist i used to work with the artist union i know about theing conditions and how those great artists can't make a living i won time heard 899 percent actress can't make a living probably the same thing for artists and sculpture oversees 36 they do their trade shows and i've seen they're living conditions and how they have to struggle no matter how good you are you have to have an audience a lot of capable people out there but for all the cable people that are there their credentials is few they'll get the jobs that's the society with art and so i'm happy to see a lot of people have not been displaced that you have to do your job and glad we don't have to try to create new rules hopefully like the chief says you look at the human issue and have to look at the safety does it is good news to hear this is seems to be going in the right direction willie brown, jr. built all the lofts for the lofts there were thousand of them built in the city and turned out to be very successful artists and high tech people mainly they have the workspace but for the average artist and work person that is trying to find their fields they - we have a lot of them around if anyone is successful. >> we have approximately, one thousand units that are classified as an r-2 roughly one thousand. >> thank you. >> if i can add one other thing those buildings first of all, we don't take that lightly we give an order to vacate we know people are displaced take it seriously those were we have not quite often if we go into a little where that appears to us the egress is secure meaning separated and direct assess to the public way we're comfortable to notifying the owner the building is unsafe and changed the use without the proper review but not issue an order to vacate under the circumstances the two points hazardous condition and change of use and korea compromised exits. >> thank you sxarm and fire marshall de cossio i look forward to hearing the city attorney few minutes ago of imminent danger in terms of time perhaps when that information is forthcoming we can get an update i think that is important for you know our citizens to know that we are in the prevention business and sometimes, the enforcement business. >> so. >> correct. >> when i get that information i'll forward it on and hoping to have something in writing but haven't received that. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> madam secretary. >> item 10 presentation of the draft strategic plan update from mark co-sponsor son on the draft plan. >> i think that is an item we'll continue unless you have information i'm looking at the clock mr. corso and have to go back too big finances and a number of items today. >> understood happy to give a brief update. >> first of all, i was not aware of a continuance we're hoping for your consideration and review and we're happy to answer any questions anticipating feedback but fully prepared to present the plan to you. >> okay. >> you may proceed. >> hold on. >> before the presentation he was prototypes expression we'll vote on this today and after attend a couple of meetings and reading the - >> the final on plan. >> i'm shocked to hear we'll moving on i don't know why we're moving to another hearing. >> i don't mean to shock anyone you'll all prepared to vote today. >> okay you may proceed mr. corso. >> i won't grow the plan in detail but a brief overview and i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> i was asked to give a brief update like a give you a little bit of background the strategic planning committee was put together to talk about the strategy and been together working is on a number of issues on the strategy plan the group is made up of inside and outside departments and the city as well the external representatives early on a discussion and form on a discussion and the structure of the committee reviewed a number of strategy plans from other fire departments and city agrees and agencies in jeopardy to look at style and effectiveness of communication and eventually a format that was similar to what seattle federal for their strategic plan that was the for a moment that was agreed on and focused on 4 key areas before you and those 5 are operations, community programs and partnerships and health and wellness and recruitment and staff and training we know those offer laptop there was a little bit of work to address each of those independently but recognizing there are a cross over there so various sub groups consolidated into a single document an early provision that was presently to the commission last year or fall as a result of that the direction or request from the commission a narrative to be incorporated into the plan that was and what you see before you the goals and strategies that flushed out as a result after a variety the feedback and it is the last update for what has been provided to you the plan that was provided is distributed to the committee that was the recent updated draft i've not received any major feedback as long as concerns or feedback as is chief mentioned considered that as of right now our most updated draft for planning in general long term planning was identified as a need for the department in audits we went through and internally and so specifically it is needed for strategic plan was identified and once completed i don't on the strategic plan is should be viewed as an end point but a start for the efforts that will continue and not a point of completion but a jumping point for other discussions and other initiatives to be working on it and also going to be changing evolving as the department and city eyes and ears and the environment congressman constantly change and the sub groups in the plan will be constantly glong going on and recorded to the fire commission annually updated forming and needs at the request of the fire commission or department and that will be continued indefinitely as we grow part of it also mentioned and mentioned previous commission meeting as well it is a jumping point for another number of other plans and initiative recruitment plan and outreach plan, kind of a session planning those efforts will be are mentioned in the strategic plan but not been vetted and will demand their own efforts a separate plan as part of my new role to form lists those related to those topics so briefly i think as we're looking to continue to evolve the plan itself is the need for the plan is more apparent given the financial uncertainties facing the city locally the state and federal with funding especially in the budget process over the next few years having a strategic plan as a point as a guide for a lot of the guides and initiative as we put forward will be a great benefit i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> thank you mr. corso. >> any public comment? okay yes. >> thank you. >> good morning, commissioners chief aim brandon a retired assistant with the homeland security and 35 years working as a paramedic and continued on an commissioner moore at city college thank you for being a member of the strategic committee and want to acknowledge sxhoeld and commissioner hardeman for attending the meetings and commissioner andrea evans and acknowledge the fine work that mark corso he captured what we did and make comments to go forward as the plan presented to you today i was the subcommittee director for staffing and recruitment and training and there are some opportunities that are presented that are very timely one thing that was presented in the strategic command entering into a commissioner moore agreement an opportunity to create a source of revenue as we moved in the budget process we don't want to lose time in following that pursuant i want to acknowledge looking at the folks in this malia cohen i don't think we have any trouble with recruitment i missed the memo to wear a suit and tie will have to chase its my formally students. >> you all right have the job

commissioner hardeman. >> yes. i want to say to achieve brandon so active in the community before he retired and see him at the meeting with authority is refreshing i want to congratulate you and don't see 798 objecting that is important for any vote i think you're speaking on behalf of the pretty much the fire department been selected as one of the leaders of this plan so i don't - i take zero credit i was there and wanted to listen and learn and see the opinions of the experts you did a good job and really appreciate that as fantastic document i do know that we're expected to have this done that most that's one of the reasons to move forward and mr. corso don't want to take up the inaccuracitricacies - >> its been a long time coming but your department needed a strategy plan and this is a good one and like to congratulate libya for all the time as well and to local 798 and the representatives of the competent that put it together i think we're all ready and the chief concurs that is time to adapt this plan and implement and change it as we need to over time i'm comfortable absolutely recommend we adapt this strategic plan. >> is that a formal motion. >> yes. >> if i may respond i failed to mention i want to thank everyone commissioner vice president cleaveland and folks that spoke to that there was not a budget for it who volunteered their hours and expertise to collaborate and work with each other put focus on both their perspective areas of expertise and in general the global view of the department and thank to all the members and those not officially on the committee but contributed their time much appreciated a masterful effort thank you. >> thank you. >> commissioner nakajo. >> thank you, madam chair and mr. director corso thank you very much for this report and acknowledge reinforce all the hard working community members over the long periods of time i've gone over this extensive and went it over twice yesterday and prepared today to adapt that plan i think that after the time occurred with all the commons of the department a very well written appetites a very well written piece that has a good print that provides direction and comprehends all the department and proprietors that we wanted to have made feel flexible to adapt if there are any other issues that come up within that year or following i'm confident we can do that but definitely think commissioners we need to adopt that plan to have our footprint, if you will, to move forward i particularly wanted to point out i really appreciate the goal to creating a culture that values ongoing leadership and development that is so important develop inside within the department prides training, i think this strategic plan should be a piece of material for all of you out there to read and digest same as the purpose of commissioners in terms of what our work is so we're all clear exactly to what we are doing here and again director corso with all the community members with all the work we're ready to accept this and timely and like to move forward i'd like to second that motion and wanting new seconded. >> thank you for the second. >> chief joanne hayes-white. >> thank you commissioner president covington briefly i'd like to echo what deputy director but include you as well you were the leader of committee that was collaborative a team effort i appreciate the guidance and support patience of the commission it took longer anticipated parts part of that it was a collaborative piece and recognizing people have different schedules that was voluntary but well recommended throughout the department with a senior well retired now member o laser has represented not only a member of the command staff i had the pleasure of appointing the deputy chief of homeland security but the executive with the fire department and president of the local 798 at the table and ems all divisions were represented at administration so a lot of hard work and again, thank you to all members that contributed to the document. >> thank you chief joanne hayes-white i'd like to thank everyone for precipitating it is a grueling process i'm very mindful of the time i just have one question that is how are we're going to get feedback from range and file regarding this strategic plan. >> i believe this was done informally we talked about meeting the sub groups they brought in a number of people from outside not on times strategic plan committee but other experts and other people that had guidance and advise for formulating this subject i don't think we've talked about - there was a request or it was brought up originally to put it out to all members for feedback. >> yes. >> it was decided quite a bit at the planning committee the result and recommendation of the committee there was enough outreach at the committee level and enough discipline in areas represent at the committee level and other coordinating subsidy groups if need to be put out for all but not to say the departments can't comment but parts to solicit feedback. >> and under publishing. >> after. >> how will you go forward to let everyone know that is a plan and combichls a chance to read it and perhaps have a town hall meeting to get feedback. >> i'll jump in we anticipate it was discussed during the process discussions with the rank and file he didn't need to do that one, the tasks the committee members to seek input from the peers that was part of the time consuming process so i will envision we would put this plan out as other policies and plans with a cover general order and happy to put something related to please review and open to february this is an initial endeavor open to february received and committed to it is a living document working through that as we get different feedback we will perhaps reconvene the committee and discuss those. >> if i may add to it part of feedback is part of a follow-up process i'll envision annually there will be an update reporting to the commission on the process but during that time it talked about a little bit in the plan there will be additional committees focused on each area that will be an opportunity to expand the scope of feedback and incorporate those into the plan itself and the steps to achieve the goals as stated. >> thank you. i do think that there is value in facing communication having a communication and we force people to submit their comments to writing we're down by 50 percent at least okay. >> noted thank you. >> thank you very much. we have a we have a motion on the floor and
