Please silence all electronic devices. Your completed speaker cards and documents you have to be submitted as part of the clerk should be submitted to the clerk. Thank you, mr. Clerk. Call item number one. An ordinance amendmenting the administrative code to require the Police Department to regularly report certain crime data, related to victims and other spi specified crimes. I wanted to ask deputy City Attorney pearson if we have the final sort of amendments, and were ready to move ahead with this item. No, i dont think you have the final amendments before you right now. My understanding is that my colleague is working to finalize them. And will let me and your aide know as soon as your ready to distribution. So you might want to hear the second item first. So since were still waiting for some lastminute final amendments from the deputy City Attorney, that has been working on this legislation, mr. Clerk, can we hold off on this one and move ahead to item two right now . I told the people who were going to give Public Comment on it that it was going to be later. We could, but i just wanted to note that. Um. Well, actually maybe we can still move ahead. I have some introductory remarks on this item. I know there are some people here from the community for Public Comment. And then if the amendments hopefully get here in time, i could introduce those. Does that sound okay . So why dont we move ahead with item number one. This legislation, which were calling the crime victim data disclosure ordinance, will require that s. F. P. D. Begin issuing quartering reports on the aggregated demographic evidence on crime victims. Take to supervisors fewer and stefei. The Lgbtq Community and others city wide, i would like to thank them. The chineseamerican citizens alliance, the chineseamerican democratic club, visitation asian alliance, lgbtq democratic club, the Jewish Community relations council, the triangle neighborhood association, Golden Gate Heights neighborhood association, Sunset Heights association of responsible people, for all submitting letters of summer for this legislation. The crime victim data disclosure ordinance will do the two things number one, require s. F. P. D. To regularly report aggravated data on the motivating factor for hate crimes, sexual orientation, gender identity or religious preference. And require s. F. P. D. To does close crime victim data, specifically race, gender, and age for victims of assault, aggregated assault, sexual assault, burglary, theft, Motor Vehicle theft, robbery, battery, vandalism, Domestic Violence and murder. The legislation does not require the s. F. P. D. To acquire any new information from victims, but to report available data that is already being collected. I first requested this data for a board of supervisors hearing that convened last month, in response to home invasions targeting the sunset district and other neighbourhoods. I was told by s. F. P. D. That the data did not exist. After a number of incidents occurred targeting chinese victims, i was joined by president yee and supervisor walton a submittal to provide the information. In september, s. F. P. D. Provided some crime information, and the information was both alarming and validating for specific communities with heightened concerns about Public Safety. For example, africanamericans were by far the most disproportionately victimized by all types of violent crime, including homicide and sexual assault. For asianamericans, the data showed increasing robbery, burglary, and theft victims year by year in recent years, validating their concerns. And, according to recent f. B. I. Figures, hate crimes jumped 58 in San Francisco last year, even as they leveled off across california. The citys surge in hate crimes was driven by an increase in incidents targeting victims by their race and ethnicity. It more than doubled from 19in 2017 to 41 in 2018, making up the majority of San Franciscos 68 reported hate crimes. While i appreciate that the s. F. P. D. Has shared with my office there are some new state requirements related to data reporting coming up, there is a level of urgency for us to start making this requirement start making this requested data transparent so we can understand how crime disproportionately affects all of our communities. And, finally, i, after some Community Feedback i am proposing some amendments that would add additional crime categories, such as child abuse, elder abuse, grand theft, manslaughter, and different types of burglary and Domestic Violence. Number two, send these reports to the office of Racial Equity and the human rights commission. And, number three, ensure that there is ensure that there is data analysis. We must ensure that we use this data responsibly and in a way that promotes interracial harmony and cooperation. With this data, we can better track these crimes, understand who is being impacted, and develop better strategies to address them. This information is just a first step to identify what our needs are. And for all of our communities to Work Together to ensure Public Safety for all in our city. So id actually like to welcome up matt dorsey from the s. F. P. D. Thank you, chair mar, vice chair peskin and supervisor haney. My name is matt dorsey with the San FranciscoPolice Department. The San FranciscoPolice Department stands for safety, with respect for all. And we measure and communicating, and thats under way, and thats part of my new role here. So i want to applaud supervisor mar and your colleagues for your leadership on this. I think we all recognize that to the extent we can be better at collecting data about crimes, we can do a better, more affective job of protecting all of our Diverse Communities here in San Francisco. One of the things that you mentioned about a timing issue coming up with the state, and i just wanted to the department wants to just raise this. You correctly identified that there are some limitations in the collection of crime data. And a lot of that goes to the fact that since i think 1930, the United States has had uniform crime reports, and it is relatively limited in what it is reportedly. I believe in the most serious crimes, what it calls, like, section 1 crimes or unit 1 crimes, and it is only about eight categories. That is in the process of being replaced nationwide with a more detailed reporting system, called the national incidentbased reportedly system, and it has five categories among the most serious eight parts. That process is under way and it will be completed in 2022. At the same time, states have the ability to both comply with the national standards, but also have their own. So california has its version of nibers, and it is called cybers. And were in the process of just waiting to see what that is going to be. The reason that matters is last week we found out that this is coming up just in april. Were going to have were right now flying blind on what the state is going to require of us. So because were in a situation of reinventing one wheel to comply with state requirements, while were considering this, i just want to raise it, and this is a policy decision and a use of financial decision. Just to be aware in april, we will have better information on what the reporting requirements will be for the state cybers, and it is possible that some of what the state is going to be doing from the department of justice could solve some of this, to the extent it doesnt, then it would be a policy question for the city. There is nothing to prevent the city from going above and beyond, in much the way that california is go above and beyond what the nation is doing, and San Francisco can go beyond what the state is doing. But we dont know. There was a precedent for Something Like this, when the city was enacting 96a, reporting requirements, at the same time the state was enacting legislation that was, i think, ab953, and i think this was in 2015, where we got started on one thing and then it ended up being squandered resources because we had to redo it for the state. So it is really just a kind of consideration that we all have an obligation to be responsible stewards of the public fisk. And i wanted to present that to you as a public policy, although i understand there is urgency. Thank you so much, mr. Dorsey. Just a few questions on that. I appreciate the point youre raising here about the change in our crime data reporting thats going to happen with the federal guidelines. And thats really the timeline for that is 2022. And then youre saying that there might be some changes to the state crime data reporting that could happen. Whats the timeline for that again . So the standards are going to be issued in april 2020. So in a couple of months, we will know what we need to be collecting for the state level. And this is where its sort of the none, unknown, in this is we dont know what the state is going to do. I think we do have a clear picture although i would defer to more knowledgeable people than i in the department. But it isny my it is my understg while nibers is pretty clear, the state has to weigh in on what the states requirements will be. This may solve what youre seeking to solve with your leadership. It may also be something that not unlike ab953 and 96a may be similar but different, so the department is actually grappling with two requirements that are a little different, but it is important and resource intensive for us. And one last question do you have is there any indication that the new state reporting requirements that are being worked on would possibly include reporting requirements about crime victims and the demographics of crime victims, which is really what the focus so when we worked with the budget and legislative analyst, we were particular in saying it could accomplish this, but it really is something we dont know. It might be a situation in two months again, this is a policy consideration for you where in the sense were flying blind and youre asking a question thats a good one, and that none of us can answer, but in two months we will be able to answer that. Great. Thank you. Thank you. Next id like to invite sevrin campbell to present on the fiscal impact of this item. Good morning. Yes, in response to sort of the presentation, our understanding is that there is a new system that will be implemented to meet the federal and state requirements in march of 2022. There is Grant Funding to cover the costs of planning and implementing developing that system. But in terms of the current reporting standards and the current system, there would be some limitations in what the system can currently do. Our understanding is especially when there are multiple crimes or multiple victims, the system doesnt currently aggregate that information. It reports it as the highest crime level. So you might not get the level of detail that this legislation is requesting. We did talk to the public the Police Department to really think through what it would take to modify the existing oraclebased system. There is a cost to it. They thought it would be two fulltime oracle consultants, at a cost of about 235 an hour. So it would be a onetime cost of over 900,000. We did talk to the Department Also about alternatives. We dont have good information at this point, but we think that there would be some potential where there would actually be a manual accounting of the incidents that are actually hard to pull out of the system to meet this requirement. There would be staff costs, and it could potentially be a lot less than the modification of the system. In terms of our recommendation, we do actually consider this to be a policy matter for the board. Thank you, ms. Campbell. Colleagues, if you have no questions for comments, maybe we can move to Public Comment. Be have some members of the public here who have filled out speaker cards. If you could please step up on the right side of the room and step up to the mic. Benjamin chung, mina young, marlene tran. Good morning, city supervisors and members of the government audit. My name is benjamin chung. Im an associate pastor of San FranciscoChinese Baptist Church in the sus sussex district at 34th. I want to let you know youre all in my prayers to make good and sound decisions for the residents and the city of San Francisco. I know this is not an easy task. Im here today to voice my concerns about the uptake in crimes, and feel there should be better reporting, especially as an asian american. Im in favour of this. Im also thankful for the s. F. P. D. And their hard work. I had my house burglarized just seven weeks ago many and my neighbor was burglarized just over a years agyear ago. Both burglaries were through forced entry through the front doors, and both in the middle of the day. And my neighbor even has an iron gate and they broke through that. Due to my neighbors burglary, i updated my front door, and it took the burglars more time to breakthrough. My neighbor is also filipino. Thanks to the s. F. P. D. , their quick response, the burglars dropped my property, and as they were exiting, the s. F. P. D. Showed up, and they the burglars crashed their car shortly after leaving my house, and i got my two dogs back. And im thankful they did not harm my wife, and my two sons, 4 and 2. And they ran into my tenant, who also lived in the house, and his girlfriend, but thankfully upon seeing them, they left the house, and i praise the lord for all of this stuff. I do understand there is a bigger picture, looking at the time, and i think we need better data. [buzzer] thank you. Ms. Tran. Good morning, supervisors. Im marlene tran, a longtime volunteer, community activist, retired teacher of newly immigrant students in our public schools, and the spokesperson for the visitation valley alliance. Im here to support the transparency legislation, especially needed in light of the recent and increasingly brutal crimes against our elderly asian citizens. Unfortunately, some of these victims were my former students. This quarterly data will help to guide budget and resource priorities, police staffing, and Crime Prevention programs to keep our communities safe. In the 1980s, when i moved t to visitation valley, asians were victims, but they couldnt make Police Reports because of lack of language. I organized Monthly Police meetings, initiated bilingual service, and provided victims with translations in courts and police matters. I even offered for free the use of my leland Avenue Property to have direct communications with law enforcements. While the ethnic media has reported many of the crimes, the English Community is only starting to write about the serious cases. I grieve for the many victims who suffered greatly because they did not get the services and resources they deserve. With your full support of supervisor mars legislation to bring muchneeded data and the Public Services to a diverse San Francisco, the year of the rat will make San Francisco a safer city for all. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, please. My name is mina young. Im a member of the bay area homeowners network. We have hundreds of members in San Francisco. We chat, and i see a lot of fear among our members. Recently because they themselves or their neighbors got robbed, and theyre telling people how they would do different measures to try to avoid being targeted. Like new years, not putting stuff outside to celebrate, to make it look like youre chinese. And not put shoes outside, or certain kinds of plants you dont want to put outside. These are the fears i didnt see before. Myself, inside my own house, my plants were stolen a few times, and then they were rearranged right in front of the house, where usually it is on the side. You know, people do all kinds of stuff. We dont know whether we are being targeted, but by having the data, if that helps to reduce that kind of crimes and make us safer, thats we would applaud for it. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hi, my name is eva chow, and ive been a longtime resident here in San Francisco. The crime situation has gotten so bad that my mom and her friends, maja people, they all talked about not going to chinatown anymore, which is really bad for the community. They feel that having gone to chinatown once or twice every two or three weeks for doctors visits and all of that is due to this lack of concern that is not being devoted to the chinese community, is actually oppressing their communities because theyre not able to feel safe in their own communities. There is something wrong with that. So i really want to thank supervisor mar for brings bringing this to light. We need data transparency so we can allocate resources for the communities in need. And that is the first step. So this needs to be broadcasted to everyone so that my parents and her friends and families can feel safe going to chinatown. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good morning. Im pastor megan roy. Im a chaplain with the San FranciscoPolice Department. Although because i provide Mental Health care for both officers and victims of crimes, i remain neutral in this issue. But today i wanted to speak you in the hat of being the pastor of
