Unprecedented heat wave and in San Francisco, traditionally, when you have a heat wave, you like sit it out. Unfortunately, with this last experience it reached temperature levels as well as resulted in a couple of individuals passing away. So, talking to the system, you know, and i was not quite sure but i think we were talking about maybe a heat alert system as well. I dont know if that falls in categorically in this department, but duty officer, is that duty officer at e. M. S. . On the deck, or how does that work . We have the duty officer is at the u. S. C. And so its very close proximity to our dispatch center. Every day from 7 00 to 4 00 a. M. , or actually activated at you know, a warm level one, and so we have the Operations Section active every day, and then its a 24 7 duty officer program. Like last night duty officerer sent out 2, 3 notifications, and i did the other night about a power outage. And then just in terms of the heat and Public Health, i mean, we certainly work with department of Public Health if there is, you know, a heat emergency and we can again scale up the notifications, everything to alert us after putting out a notification by the wireless emergency alert. Vice president nakajo im glad you talked about that. Because again for me, it was a clarification between the office on aging through the Health Department, through e. M. S. And somewhere along the line we could not quite put a finger on who is the point person. So in terms of your presentation, the duty officer, 24 7, is the point person that makes the call on certain kinds of duty officer in consultation with the manager on call. And manager on call is myself or three other manages within the division of emergency services. But when it arises to the level of a wireless emergency alert, or the outdoor public warning system, we would schedule policy group call, or we would at least bring in the Public Safety principles with the chief of the Fire Department, you know chief of Police Department, Mayors Office on our executive director to give the go ahead on that. Vice president nakajo mechanism in that yourself. Just agreeing with him. We would issue hawaii, like we Vice President nakajo thats where i brought it up. The big old elephant in the room, that that personnel in hawaii as it turns out was terminated. And that person, as i understand it, was trying to do their job. Im just going to leave it right there. All im saying about that is that if you are telling me a duty officer or somebody out there is a human person out there thats making the call, putting their finger on the button or turning the key, and im just saying thats a whole lot of responsibility on an individual. To the questions in terms of do you put the big siren on and wake everybody up and you know, like if you dont know what you are doing, you dont know what you are doing, you know what i mean. Either you get out or you dont. You are prepared or not. And thats, im just talking about the facts of life and im part of that. I should be prepared for all aspects of it, i could be better prepared and all this does is remind me constantly as to what we need to do. With the recent wildfires and then with the heat, i just want to make sure that you know, our parameters of responsibility are covered and theres a coordination. And just like nert or earthquake, you know, you have to have a mechanism in the public to be able to understand what we are supposed to be doing within the given amount of a few seconds, you know, and thats thats what im asking. I want to make sure that these Duty Officers have responsibility but also the whole lot of responsibility with that. Comments . That is we train quite often, i mean, our folks probably think we train too much. I dont think that is, you can never do that enough. But i mean, we do have ill say we do have a lot of security measures in place that would prevent us from having an incident like hawaii. And thats probably something we can go into detail off on. Vice president nakajo i truly appreciate your participation and your presentation and your support, thank you, mr. President. President cleaveland commissioner. Commissioner hardeman thank you, mr. President. Thanks for your presentation. It is sort of an interesting subject when i live in the west portal, and thats like three miles up from the ocean, and it was not so long ago posted all over the poles and everything was all the tsunami information. The odds of water coming up to probably what, 5 of the city, maximum, or worst case scenario. It would be to a very geographically restricted area. So, i thought it was amusing a couple years ago with the notice about what to do during the tsunami. I guess it was for people who might be shopping that live near an area, but geographically, what percentage of the city would be affected, 5 , the maximum, i mean in the worst tsunami . I think less than that with combined. But we do have tsunami maps, commissioner, that i can provide to the commission as a followup. Commissioner hardeman should be pretty easy to reach that 1, 2, 3 of people that might be affected and we have to Pay Attention if we are on the beach and but outside of that, its, i think its pretty restricted to people that should be concerned or people that live in the lowlying areas around near the water. And i do remember, you get flash notices on tv and all kinds of information. And on the tsunami, too. Dont really pay much attention to it, because i know im not going to be affected. But it was a great presentation, thank you. Thank you, sir. President cleaveland we know that commissioner is in the flood zone and perhaps that map should be made public so that the rest of the city could know exactly where they are or not in terms of a tsunami, or possible tsunami, and we have what, 80,000 people that are, or 90,000 that are plugged into the alert s. F. System at this point. Yes. President cleaveland another 700,000 plus that we can add to the system, right . I guess its a constant education of the public in terms of plugging in and being ready to receive those alerts when they come. So, thats the message to the public at this point. Thank you, mr. Dayton, for your very comprehensive report, appreciate it. Thank you. R president cleaveland madam secretary, the next item. Draft operating budget, 20192020, operating budget for 20182019, 20192020. Welcome, mr. Corseau. Good morning, commissioners, happy valentines day. Finance and planning here with the next item. Which is continuation and potentially action on the departments budget submittal for this year. I have a short slide show and happy to answer any questions you may have. First want to highlight some of the documentation provided you in your packets. You should have received a budget book for the department, along with an outline of enhancement requests, ill detail shortly later. In addition, a few pages paper clipped together an update to the book. They deal with some of the Department Revenues and ill highlight those changes, a replacement to the corresponding pages previously provided. Brief overview of the items i wanted to discuss. Brief review of the instructions and timelines that we have highlighted at Previous Commission meetings. Some of the assumptions and changes included in the budget before you, update on the departments Budget Committee that was reconvened in the current year at overview of what i guess technically the department is proposing at this time, and then questions and solicitation of feedback. Just a brief review of the citys budget instructions. City is projecting 260 million deficit over the next two fiscal years. As part of that, the department, all the city departments have been requested to submit reductions to their general fund to the extent of 2. 5 in each year. So, 5 cumulative in the second year and for u the Fire Department, that corresponds to 1. 5 million in the first year, and 3 million cumulative in the second year. And similar to last year, the overall message from the Mayors Office was that departments do not submit any new net new positions to the general fund budgets. Brief review of the time frame, todays meeting for discussion and possible action at the commission, the departments budget submittal is due on february 21st, along with all other city departments. June 1st is the time frame for which the Mayors Office needs to submit their balanced budget to the board of supervisors. In between february and the june date, departments will be working very closely con figuring what that looks like, no means are what we proposing a final budget, that will be negotiated over the next few months with the Mayors Office. June, a number of Committee Hearings at the board, budget and finance and once the budget is approved there, rolled and considered for final approval at the full board. Some of the assumptions in the budget, so, last year, the budget is currently rolling twoyear process. Last year technically the second year approved last year is the baseline for the current first year. So 1819 budget, second year last year, rolled over, any known benefit changes, salary changes, those kinds of things have been incorporated into that budget, along with any other health and benefit costs, any work orders that are known at this time, a lot of those things will be adjusted as we get closer to the june budget. What is known currently has been incorporated. Also incorporated are some of the departments previously funded initiatives, pertaining to outreach to equipment, fleet, and also hiring. And while we are not submitting until next week, there is still some changes that will be made in the budget regarding rates, regarding work orders, number of things. So, that may change from whats before you, but no material or operational changes between what you see now and eventually submitted. So, just wanted to highlight some of the changes. As i mentioned, revenues, ill start with that. In the documentation that was proposed to you, there is some increases in Fire Prevention revenues to align with projected current activity as well as some policy changes that we are still working out, specifically pertaining to some of the administrative hearings that were approved in legislation, whereas previously the department was able to issue a notice of correction and now some of the changes require us to do notice of violation. So, we have seen an increase with that, increase in the number of administrative hearings. We are working on a Fee Structure for that with the city attorneys office. But we have made some assumptions in the current year budget. In addition, increased some of the other items, including overtime to correspond to current actual, and thats at request of customers. In addition, we have kept the ambulance e. M. S. Revenue constant. There are a few, well be working very closely with the Mayors Office over the next few months for that portion of it. A few changes, legislative changes at the state level, we are currently analyzing their impact, whether they will be positive or negative for Department Revenues. And shifts in the insurance demographic, working with, very closely with the Billing Company and the Mayors Office over the next couple months. Looking at administration and support services, no major changes there, just some work orders, workers comp, central, and settled over the next couple months as departments submit to the Mayors Office their fee schedules and their cost for services, so those will be dealt with on a citywide level. At this time we dont know a lot of those rates, but those roadway worked on with the Mayors Office over the next couple months. Fire prevention, there are a few changes. Theres a reclassification of a couple vacant positions to Fund Fire Protection engineers in the bureau, that will assist a plan check. Its the budget currently proposes the continuation of some of the outreach efforts by the department. Majority of that was funded by the department of building inspection, so we anticipate that continuing over the next couple years. Those funds for staffing mainly are recouped through a work order. We have continued funding the two projects in Fire Prevention, both based from fee revenues and thats pertaining to a fleet, Fire Prevention fleet replacement, as well as our fire facilities renewal for our Satellite Office on oak street. As i mentioned, we have adjusted our overtime to reflect current activity. We have seen last year and projected. And additionally, additional Fire Prevention staff allocated, both to the port of San Francisco as well as the airport. Operationally, to date, salary and benefits rates have been adjusted with known information. One of the questions that had come up previously and just overall as you may know, a lot of the m. O. U. Negotiations are ongoing between the city and firefighters union, so any changes or any financial impacts, budgetwise as a result of those negotiations will be incorporated into our budget at a later date. But obviously since those are not known at this time, they are not included in the departments proposal. As i mentioned before, the budget highlights the continuation of the fleet and equipment plan in fiscal year 2019, allocated over 5 million as part of last years allocation for the first year here. Working with the Mayors Office on that allocation in the second year, fiscal 1920, but the fleet plan, the third year of the fiveyear plan and the minimum allocation set forth in that plan is 3 million, so well be working closely with the Mayors Office on that allocation. Continuation of the mayors Public Safety plan, both for e. M. T. Paramedics, and also for entry level firefighters, so we anticipate that hiring plan will continue through fiscal year 20. We are working with the Mayors Office on e. M. S. Ambulance staffing, so, there was an analysis done a couple years ago that set forth our Staffing Levels of 200 s. T. E. S. We feel given the call volume and the increase in such call volume we would need additional personnel for the support services, and we will be working closely with the Mayors Office as they perform their budget. Additionally, just additional training and operational staff added to the airport, pertaining to some of the training over there, three additional training personnel as well as we discussed at the last meeting, bike Medic Program f. T. E. S. To give a brief update on the status of the Budget Committee. Reconvened for the current year process. We have met multiple Times Leading up to this point and continue meeting the next few months as the budget process continues. Included in your packet was a list of some of the results of need assessment for the department submitted by division head, field and members of the Budget Committee and discussed those in length and anticipate discussing those with the Mayors Office. So, they have graciously offered to host a meeting with the Budget Committee at city hall and we are currently in the process of scheduling that, most likely for early march. So, we have done that the past couple years, where the Mayors Office gives an overview of the citys financial outlook, the budget process instructions and then serves as kind of a q and a session with the Budget Committee. We have had some initial discussions at the Budget Committee on how we would like to use that time, and i think it would be for highlighting the priorities of the Department Going forward, so well be meeting internally prior to that meeting, but thats on the radar working with the Mayors Office over the next month. As far as what we are actually proposing before you, so, the department, the Budget Proposal before you does not meet the target reductions as put forth by the Mayors Office, given some of the lack of flexibility we have with regard to salary and benefit commitments, as well as maintaining minimum Staffing Levels. Not a lot of room for reductions that does not have an operational impact, so, our proposal is to continue to work with the Mayors Office over the next few months on many of those issues as they move forward toward finalizing their budget. And as mentioned, also looking to continue the discussion with regards to e. M. S. Staffing over the next few months as well. And with that, i would like to open to any questions for discussion. President cleaveland thank you, any Public Comment, seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Ill ask our Vice President to begin the conversation on the budget today as he was a part of that committee that met with the department several times on the budget. So, mr. Vice president , would you begin t
