[10:04] of these technologies. And

[10:05] there are 16 speakers that

[10:06] signed up to speak on this

[10:10] item. Ok, great. I will turn

[10:15] it over to Dc does feel as if

[10:15] I pronounced that correctly

[10:22] have ok? All right. And then

[10:23] if I know that you are

[10:24] requesting a modification to

[10:24] this item, if you want to

[10:38] is requesting that Alpr

[10:39] automated license plate reader

[10:42] for 2025 annual report be

[10:43] removed from the agenda.

[10:44] That's apology changes

[10:47] recommended in the report.

[10:48] Accompanying revised

[10:49] department. Jenna order. I-12

[10:52] Alp our policy. All right. Not

[10:53] contained within the

[10:54] resolution related to this

[10:56] item. The concern around the

[10:58] resolution was identified by

[11:00] opd and then brought to the

[11:01] attention of the city

[11:01] attorney's office for

[11:04] clarification. Opd is

[11:07] requesting to reschedule the

[11:09] specific item after the

[11:09] legislative recess to allow

[11:11] for the presentation of the

[11:12] annual report in conjunction

[11:17] with the amended policy. This

[11:18] will allow for a more

[11:18] comprehensive discussion

[11:19] around potential policy

[11:22] changes. The reflect the

[11:22] ongoing analysis, the lpr

[11:26] program. The movement of this

[11:26] item will not impact the

[11:28] presentation of the annual

[11:30] report within the designated

[11:32] period. It will also not

[11:33] impact impact the department

[11:39] operationally. Thank you.

[11:40] Since I had some back and

[11:41] forth discussions with opd

[11:42] colleagues, does that make

[11:45] sense to the alpr section is

[11:50] being This is item. Listed 8

[11:53] the agenda, some some item a.

[11:56] Please go ahead. As everyone

[11:58] knows the Oakland Police

[12:02] Department is short staffed,

[12:02] but we do. We are actively

[12:04] recruiting for additional

[12:08] resources, but we rely heavily

[12:08] on technology. And this

[12:11] technology has assisted us

[12:14] greatly solving crimes,

[12:15] identifying potential people

[12:17] of interest and also assist in

[12:20] our community and the victims

[12:21] of crime. We have utilized are

[12:22] unmanned aerial system which

[12:25] are drones. Forensic logic,

[12:27] cop link crime, tracer pen

[12:31] registers so bright to assist

[12:33] us greatly in our

[12:34] investigations. I know

[12:37] everybody has had a chance to

[12:38] review these annual reports

[12:40] and we can go and death in

[12:42] each one. If you would like,

[12:43] we can go through each one and

[12:43] if their specific questions, I

[12:46] can answer them to make it

[12:47] easier because I do want to

[12:48] answer question that you might

[13:00] already have or I think does

[13:01] that people's there we go.

[13:02] That's a better pronounce I

[13:03] think it would be good if you

[13:05] could provide just a quick

[13:08] overview of each of the

[13:09] technologies for everybody in

[13:11] this committee absolutely will

[13:13] make that he again, we have a

[13:15] amount of technology in our

[13:17] department. One of the things

[13:18] we have is our unmanned aerial

[13:21] system better known as drones

[13:24] that have says it greatly and

[13:25] our department, these drones

[13:30] are program began in 2020 2

[13:37] and we have deployed in 2025.

[13:38] 131 incident spread we

[13:42] present. I'm sorry. It says

[13:43] 130 times that it's actually

[13:44] 131 and I clarified that with

[13:45] the prize. The Privacy

[13:48] Advisory Commission already,

[13:49] but the drones have assisted

[13:49] us greatly in being able to

[13:52] provide real-time

[13:56] intelligence. Give us unknown

[13:57] unknown, have information

[13:58] where we can't see and also be

[14:02] deployed and be able to give

[14:05] better response time. So if

[14:06] there's an incidents where a

[14:06] suspect flees from a singles

[14:10] into a yard, we can deploy

[14:12] drone. Give us some real time

[14:14] intelligence just so we don't

[14:16] send officers in there. So it

[14:19] mitigates uses of force. Is

[14:20] this real time intelligence

[14:21] and also assist us in being

[14:24] able to get that person safely

[14:24] out and for officers to safely

[14:30] take that person into custody.

[14:31] I provided several incidents

[14:34] in where they have assisted

[14:36] us. I through 10 different

[14:38] types of incidents that we've

[14:39] had. But as you can see on

[14:44] pages, 8. 9 and these were

[14:47] incidents that were. Very

[14:50] dangerous are barricaded

[14:52] suspects. There are specific

[14:53] incidents where people are

[14:56] armed with firearms and all of

[14:58] these incidents resulted in

[15:02] the safe apprehension of armed

[15:03] suspects and also the

[15:08] mitigation of uses of force.

[15:12] We do have our flare, which is

[15:13] our forward looking infrared.

[15:13] We do have somebody here from

[15:16] artist, which is our air

[15:17] support unit. This technology

[15:18] was not used in the past year.

[15:21] And I believe it's also

[15:21] outdated. So there's not much

[15:22] to report on that.

[15:28] Unfortunately.

[15:42] The next one is our live

[15:44] stream transmitter feet where

[15:48] we utilize that for protests.

[15:49] We did not play that again in

[15:50] 2025, as you can see in the

[15:55] annual report. The next thing

[15:58] is our mobile forensic

[16:00] extraction device basically,

[16:03] this mobile forensic

[16:03] extraction device. It's

[16:04] basically told, used to

[16:06] extract data from seized

[16:08] mobile phones and tablets. So

[16:09] it performs a one-time that

[16:12] extraction doesn't conduct

[16:14] live surveillance. You can see

[16:15] that we extract its 730

[16:23] devices. 5 are related to

[16:24] internal administrative opd

[16:25] searches and 733 were related

[16:28] to criminal investigations. I

[16:29] know one of things that has

[16:30] been brought to our attention

[16:32] is making sure that we look at

[16:34] outside potential different

[16:35] vendors. I can tell you that

[16:37] we have been testing 2

[16:40] different than vendors. I'm

[16:41] not gonna specifically

[16:42] mentioned those names of those

[16:44] vendors, but one of the

[16:47] vendors has had a 3% success

[16:48] rate. The other one has had a

[16:52] 62% success rate. While our

[16:53] current so bright has had a

[17:00] 95% success rate. And again,

[17:02] these are a device that we

[17:06] utilize in assisting us in

[17:07] violent crimes. So if there is

[17:09] a homicide, a robbery, a home

[17:12] invasion robbery, a sexual

[17:14] assault, somebody who is being

[17:16] place than victimized on our

[17:17] streets for prostitution

[17:19] activity. And we're looking

[17:22] for camps. These device that

[17:24] we utilize to assist in our

[17:25] investigations. And they've

[17:28] been extremely helpful. The

[17:31] other system we have is a pen

[17:32] register system. And that's

[17:34] basically it real-time

[17:35] surveillance tool that reports

[17:36] meta information about ongoing

[17:37] and incoming phone

[17:39] communications such as

[17:41] outnumbers time stance and

[17:43] called frequency. It doesn't

[17:43] capture the content of

[17:44] communication, which is really

[17:47] important for me understand.

[17:49] We currently utilize that

[17:50] gladiator pin register system

[17:51] to receive in analyze this

[17:53] data at we utilize that that

[17:58] at 86 times last year. 47

[18:00] separate investigations and we

[18:00] have team search warrants for

[18:03] all for 80 of 86 installations

[18:05] and 6 of those installations

[18:07] were conducted certain

[18:09] circumstances. And the

[18:12] majority work, violent crime,

[18:16] 6 of the uses occurred in 2

[18:17] incidents. One was where a

[18:18] suspect ambushed inside and

[18:20] shot at uniform. Officers and

[18:21] the other one with a threat of

[18:30] a potential school shooting.

[18:32] And then lastly is crime.

[18:34] Tracer formally known as cop

[18:35] logic, basically just to make

[18:39] it easier to kind of look at

[18:40] Google platform that of a

[18:41] system where it's just us is

[18:42] somewhat of a one-stop shop

[18:46] that assist us and being able

[18:47] to research and look for a

[18:48] cross law enforcement records

[18:50] for calls for service field

[18:53] interviews, arrest and booking

[18:55] records in citations and

[18:56] police reports it does not

[18:56] contain any automated license

[18:59] plate reader system and has

[19:01] discussed and was discussed at

[19:03] the Privacy Privacy Advisory

[19:04] Commission. And I believe also

[19:05] passed a public safety and

[19:07] city council is we are moving

[19:11] forward towards peregrine a

[19:11] different database system

[19:12] which is similar stills,

[19:14] similar to a Google platform.

[19:18] But basically it is cities

[19:19] across the Bay Area have now

[19:22] moved away from prying tracer

[19:25] and have gone to peregrine.

[19:26] Additionally, there's a better

[19:27] auditing system on peregrine

[19:30] and we can also limit access

[19:31] and we can limit who sees this

[19:33] information in which shared

[19:35] with whereas cranked racing

[19:36] was kind of free for all

[19:36] anybody could have access to

[19:42] it. Basically, those are are

[19:46] surveillance annual reports.

[19:46] Again, whether we should

[19:48] continue the use of such

[19:50] technology. Oakland Police

[19:51] Department strongly urges you

[19:53] to obviously vote yes in a

[19:55] great This technology does

[19:58] assist us and assisting the

[19:58] victims of violent crimes but

[20:01] also helping to identify

[20:02] suspects committed these

[20:07] crimes. Thank you so much.

[20:08] Colleagues. And then I do want

[20:11] to turn it over public comment

[20:11] since we have folks here,

[20:17] Councilmember Houston. Chair

[20:18] you, sir. And it's amazing

[20:19] when you you spoke on the pen

[20:21] register, you sit. Help stop a

[20:25] school shooting. And shooting

[20:31] an officer. To get back to

[20:32] that are going to take your

[20:32] time time because I got a

[20:33] couple just come That's

[20:46] amazing. School shooting. Wow.

[20:47] Yes. Over the school shooting,

[20:51] we actually have a listed in

[20:52] sitting where the where we use

[20:54] that to facilitate identify

[20:55] the location of the

[20:56] individual, making the threat

[20:57] for school shootings. So you

[21:00] can obviously just considering

[21:04] the fact of how dangerous and

[21:04] just nationwide trying to

[21:05] prevent such incidents from

[21:06] occurring, how this can assist

[21:09] Greatly threats become real.

[21:09] And what about the shooting of

[21:13] at the officer? This one? We

[21:15] very we had some limited

[21:16] information and it's we're not

[21:17] talking too much about it, we

[21:18] did apply it. And it did

[21:21] assistance in the

[21:22] investigation. Okay, lasting.

[21:24] But so bright. You had to

[21:25] vendors. I know you said you

[21:26] could mention their names was

[21:27] the percentage, the 2

[21:28] percentages and it was a cell

[21:32] by percentage. Absolutely. So

[21:33] celebrate has shown us to have

[21:35] 95% success rate in

[21:37] downloading information from

[21:39] cell phones. Well, the other 2

[21:41] vendors, one has 3% and one

[21:43] has had 62% success rate.

[21:44] We're not stopping. There are

[21:45] still looking at other

[21:46] vendors. Understand that

[21:49] question to the chair. And you

[21:53] said that the drones should

[22:03] 131 times it was using 2025.

[22:05] Yes. That's where he said,

[22:06] yeah, we had 131 times. I had

[22:08] listed one 30 as my mistake on

[22:10] there prior to that in 2024.

[22:13] We had one. 26. And prior to

[22:15] that, we had 220 and I like to

[22:16] bring that to attention

[22:17] because when it things we

[22:20] discovered, obviously was 2023

[22:21] with our first full usage of

[22:22] utilizing drones. But you can

[22:26] see that it's gone down. So it

[22:28] has to be approved by a

[22:29] commander on scene. So just

[22:32] because incident MAY warrant a

[22:33] drone, each commander will

[22:34] identify the incident and

[22:36] determine whether or not a

[22:36] drone is still needed to just

[22:39] because we have this

[22:40] technology doesn't mean that

[22:41] we deployed every single time.

[22:44] We look at a case by case

[22:45] thank you because I talked to

[22:46] the county need to is working

[22:46] perfectly, but the sheriff's

[22:48] department, thank you. Council

[22:54] member Brown. Excellent. Thank

[22:56] you so much for the report and

[22:57] the I had a couple questions

[23:02] about the drone usage this

[23:03] year. What progress the

[23:07] department is making on like

[23:10] the training like the drone

[23:10] teams because I guess I'm

[23:12] curious if that actually is

[23:14] contributing to like the the

[23:17] lack of usage. So currently

[23:18] right now, I believe the top

[23:22] of my head, we have 20 faa

[23:26] 107, certified pilots a We

[23:27] also have them. So every these

[23:28] are ancillary positions. So

[23:31] it's not full time positions.

[23:33] So a lot of these officers are

[23:34] working different assignments.

[23:38] Whether you're patrol

[23:40] investigations working in

[23:43] cease-fire, working in special

[23:45] resources section for

[23:46] obviously assignments. So

[23:47] whenever they're very for a

[23:47] call for service, if someone

[23:49] is not there, they're trying

[23:52] to respond to that location.

[23:53] The other thing we have is

[23:56] that our drones are depleting

[23:56] in a sense is the same drones

[23:58] that we've had since 2022,

[24:03] these drones were donated to

[24:04] us, but love the community So

[24:05] we had to separate donations

[24:08] totaling $100,000. And these

[24:08] are the Saint John's we've had

[24:11] since 2022. So are also being

[24:13] cautious, too. And when we and

[24:14] how many times we use it, just

[24:19] like anything else. It is a

[24:21] car in a break. So fortunately

[24:25] for my for for me, I have some

[24:26] intelligent people our teams

[24:27] are able to also become

[24:28] mechanics and try to fix the

[24:30] drones themselves as little

[24:31] parts break. So it is a

[24:35] depleting resources far as

[24:37] mechanical and also

[24:39] financially. So we are looking

[24:40] at other ways to purchase new

[24:41] drones which are working on

[24:43] right now. But that's mainly

[24:47] the biggest issue right now.

[24:48] Punches. Thank you so much for

[24:49] that and what is the current

[24:52] life of You know, it depends

[24:53] on the battery lights and

[24:56] we've had to purchase

[24:56] additional batteries and the

[24:58] drones we have are from 2022.

[25:01] So that but the the problem

[25:03] we're seeing right now is

[25:05] those purchasing. Those

[25:06] batteries are extremely

[25:07] outdated and they're not

[25:08] lasting as long as they

[25:11] normally do. So the charges

[25:12] are holding as long as they

[25:14] are. So they're constantly

[25:14] having to purchase new new a

[25:16] new batteries if that makes

[25:19] sense. Yeah, absolutely. And

[25:21] then my next question had a

[25:23] little bit you with the data

[25:25] around like the celebrate

[25:27] usage. And I just wanted to

[25:28] confirm that in order to use

[25:32] the celebrate technology, it

[25:33] actually requires a a warrant.

[25:35] Is that correct? That's

[25:36] correct. It does require a

[25:36] search warrant yet. Okay.

[25:41] Thank you. Thank you.

[25:42] Councilmember Before we turn

[25:44] it over to public comment,

[25:45] just to confirm is this a

[25:46] comprehensive list of all

[25:48] those surveillance technology

[25:50] like ai notice that shot

[25:51] spotter is not included in

[25:51] this set of reports. Why? Why

[25:55] is that? I believe that those

[25:56] at different time we did. We

[26:00] haven't presented Shotspotter.

[26:00] Okay. So we'll get it to the

[26:01] next set of reports. Okay.

[26:03] Great. Okay. Turn it over to

[26:07] public comment. Calling in the

[26:07] names that signed up to speak

[26:08] on item number 8 in no

[26:09] particular order. You can come

[26:12] up to the podium state. Your

[26:13] name before making your

[26:14] comment or if you're on zoom,

[26:15] please raise your hands to be

[26:20] easily identified. Deed on.

[26:23] Jesse Rose more. Daniel

[26:26] Hochman, Kendra Ferguson.

[26:29] Kerry, both a subtle of Allah.

[26:35] Pena is Adam will. Zarina Diaz

[26:37] Matalin. Stacey Elizabeth.

[26:41] Cochran. Noelle Flores, Blair

[26:47] Beekman Owen. Angela Maddox

[26:48] and I have one filled out

[26:51] under tech workers. Coalition.

[26:54] And if you if you are sitting

[26:55] time or have someone seating

[26:57] time tu, they must be present

[26:58] or on zoom to acknowledge that

[27:03] they are ceding their to you.

[27:03] Here's the Don. Thank you very

[27:07] much. All of these proposals

[27:09] and all of the research done

[27:11] on these surveillance systems

[27:14] is 8 gross misuse of funds for

[27:18] the people of Oakland. It's a

[27:19] dangerous actually escalation

[27:20] of surveillance on the people

[27:21] of Oakland. We do not need to

[27:22] encourage a surveillance

[27:23] state. These drones and

[27:24] cameras only act as a Band-Aid

[27:27] solution to sources of crime.

[27:29] My thoughts research and by

[27:31] your admission, the so-called

[27:31] benefited between 10 and 20%

[27:35] for usage in completed cases.

[27:35] This statistic does not

[27:36] indicate that these cases

[27:37] would have gone unsolved

[27:38] without flock intervention for

[27:40] such a widespread

[27:41] implementation. The residents

[27:43] deserve more than one in

[27:45] moment of these devices and

[27:47] result crime cases mind you.

[27:47] That's not crime prevention.

[27:48] You did mention crime

[27:50] prevention, but only for

[27:51] specific instances merely

[27:54] crime resolution for most

[27:55] cases, thoughtful, short at

[27:56] every metric by their own

[27:58] numbers for comparison amount

[28:00] of time. The we know what

[28:02] works. It is giving money to

[28:02] health care and housing for

[28:09] the citizens vote. Next

[28:10] speakers you guys can come up

[28:12] to the podium. It's on Senate

[28:14] for number 3. Number 8,

[28:16] because it coming up around

[28:20] what's Riley. Going to see To

[28:24] Daniel. Okay. Just noting that

[28:25] you will no longer be able to

[28:29] speak on item 3. And Daniel,

[28:30] give me one moment to just

[28:35] your time. Yeah. Go for. You

[28:39] can begin. All My name is

[28:39] Daniel Hoffman, a minister

[28:41] resident and I work over at

[28:42] Livermore, but the key plants

[28:45] for working their weapons so I

[28:48] first and foremost think that

[28:50] this item should on a ballot.

[28:51] If you look at police about

[28:56] was measured measure Both of

[28:57] those combined are not heavily

[28:59] weighted as what we're talking

[29:03] about. Now. But to talk about

[29:05] starting officer owns the U.S.

[29:06] Is to my knowledge that has

[29:07] its indoor use for hostile

[29:16] situations. Mississauga. I

[29:17] need to see we plot pause the

[29:20] clock. Mississauga. This is

[29:23] your first warning you will be

[29:26] 3 warnings or you will be

[29:27] removed. We need to respect

[29:32] the first warning went

[29:35] Councilmember you know, that

[29:35] is your second morning

[29:39] Mississauga. I think it's

[29:40] important to note that, you

[29:41] know, we want to make sure

[29:45] that we give everyone's voice

[29:45] is heard. And so everyone will

[29:46] get the opportunity to speak

[29:55] at the mic. And so, It wasn't

[29:58] easy. 24 7, thank you.

[30:08] Okay. Security. Can you please

[30:12] speak with to thank you.

[30:19] Should done about it. What do

[30:24] she should An Can you can

[30:25] continue with your comments.

[30:28] Your time will continue. All

[30:30] right. So knowledge the

[30:31] barricade in hostage

[30:32] situations. The overwatch for

[30:33] active scenes and fires. That

[30:34] makes sense. That is a

[30:36] tactical advantage. But I

[30:37] believe that we should

[30:38] establish some kind of

[30:39] limiting operating radius of

[30:40] maybe like a quarter mile of

[30:42] gives you enough go around the

[30:46] block without it being this

[30:46] scary step towards

[30:48] surveillance state

[30:49] infrastructure. One thing I do

[30:50] want to applaud is the crime

[30:52] of biometric security storing

[30:54] all the data on the Internet

[30:58] encrypting information and and

[30:59] should be the standard for all

[31:01] of this information, storage

[31:02] and transfer. Not so much an

[31:06] sd card on a drone or say

[31:09] manually inputting the drone.

[31:11] Log at the Microsoft teams

[31:14] Excel sheet. I believe can we

[31:19] pause again? Security? Can you

[31:20] escort misses, sought out.

[31:28] Please.

[32:29] Susan.

[33:04] You feel ready? Let's

[33:08] do All right. So lastly, as

[33:08] complementing the biometric

[33:09] security and health care as

[33:11] got moved, let's talk about

[33:12] some statistics in their

[33:13] report. It had 638 million

[33:15] scanned, but only 1.1 million

[33:20] hot list alerts which is you

[33:22] divide the 1.1 bytes is

[33:22] 138 Million. That is a 0, 1,

[33:26] 7%, utilization rate. So let's

[33:27] one scam per hot list alert.

[33:28] If we multiply that by 20,

[33:30] that's still only 30%

[33:33] utilization, right? 97% waste.

[33:33] 1.2 million dollars for not

[33:38] going 97% refund on and we're

[33:38] building essentially pan off.

[33:39] The comet only works 0.1% of

[33:41] the time. This is a

[33:45] unfortunately not even if it.

[33:46] Thank you for comments. Your

[33:56] time is up. Next that sun come

[33:58] up to the podium. Police say

[34:03] your name before beginning. I

[34:08] think the fact that you chose

[34:10] to rip move pr is at the last

[34:12] minute from this agenda shows

[34:14] exactly why we cannot trust

[34:15] these kinds of technologies

[34:16] and why there's a lack of

[34:18] transparency when you brought

[34:18] all these people here. Most of

[34:19] them are there are here to

[34:22] talk about the surveillance

[34:23] state and flock cameras on

[34:27] their corners. Let's see

[34:29] Clinton already budgeted 2.2,

[34:30] 5 million to flock back in

[34:32] DECEMBER. Imagine all the

[34:33] social services that could

[34:36] have been funded if those

[34:36] funds went to somewhere else

[34:38] rather than the surveillance

[34:40] state policing at this level

[34:40] of everyday life goes beyond

[34:41] the Panopticon and transforms

[34:44] lived actions into data by

[34:46] which people are watched.

[34:47] Their behaviors are predicted

[34:48] and then demonized based on

[34:50] their skin location and

[34:52] socioeconomic status, making

[34:53] every corner the wrong place

[34:55] to be at the petrol. 24 7,

[34:56] wrong time. Oakland already

[34:59] has a habit of violating sb

[35:01] 34, and unlawfully sharing

[35:02] surveillance data make every

[35:15] flock camp. Good evening, Wolf

[35:19] Oakland resident. Your duty

[35:22] under Omc 9, 6, 4 is not just

[35:23] accept paperwork is to approve

[35:25] the usage against us. The cost

[35:29] to civil liberties. The scale

[35:30] of the scanning that's

[35:32] happening 638 million license

[35:39] plate scanned. A 15062 success

[35:42] stories. That's 0, 0, 1%. The

[35:47] 99.9, 7, 7%, is all just non

[35:48] constitutional obstruction

[35:52] civil liberties in Oakland.

[35:55] And also approving this

[35:56] report. Oakland pd is not

[35:59] following the rules. There are

[36:01] 6 currently approved usages

[36:02] for flock. But apparently the

[36:04] 33 usages have been in their

[36:08] system able to be selected for

[36:09] the last year. I would really

[36:11] love to have you ask about

[36:13] that and are they using these

[36:14] usage is already because you

[36:23] have not voted on this year.

[36:25] I'm Kendra Ferguson live in

[36:25] Oakland and I'm opposed to the

[36:26] opd expanding the use of

[36:31] flock. I think that mass

[36:31] surveillance in the country

[36:33] that lawfully strips rights,

[36:35] repressed people that lawfully

[36:36] in concert incarcerate

[36:36] families based off of their

[36:39] deaths at the city and that

[36:40] law femurs people in the

[36:41] street will only bring harm to

[36:43] the people. I think that fun

[36:43] should be going toward

[36:46] programs that uplift humanity,

[36:49] not those that criminalize

[36:51] manatee. I'm descendant of a

[36:51] survivor of the Japanese

[36:52] concentration camps from World

[36:55] War. 2 and that measure was

[36:58] taken. Then for safety and was

[36:59] a safety measure and they

[37:01] question 820,000 people for

[37:02] the basis that thing Japanese

[37:07] Americans yeah, the reality

[37:09] all safety measures sometimes

[37:10] do not do what they're meant

[37:12] to do, right, actually meant

[37:12] to just harm community. And so

[37:13] I would hope that we are

[37:14] choosing not harm, but using

[37:24] humanity. I'm Zarina. I oppose

[37:26] flocked to the council members

[37:27] here. Do you believe the

[37:28] citizens of Oakland have a

[37:32] right to privacy from 24 7

[37:33] warrantless surveillance? Why

[37:34] is it that you continue to

[37:35] support the vendor flock when

[37:37] the public you serve? Opposes

[37:38] this the way that you and opd

[37:41] continued to sneak flock,

[37:42] funding into agendas every

[37:45] month reflects an allegiance

[37:46] to the police above your

[37:48] constituents. I've seen high

[37:50] schoolers unions, immigration

[37:51] advocacy groups, church groups

[37:52] and Constance it. Constituents

[37:55] all come here practically

[37:58] every month to oppose flop.

[38:01] The optics of you continuing

[38:05] consider funding flop. The

[38:06] optics is corruption and

[38:14] collusion with opd. I Anthony

[38:17] s district 5 residents. I

[38:18] strongly oppose any contract

[38:21] with flock safety flock

[38:22] indiscriminately, collect

[38:23] enormous volumes of video

[38:25] footage in Illinois flock has

[38:28] been caught breaking state

[38:29] privacy law by sharing that

[38:31] footage without a state law

[38:31] enforcement officers,

[38:33] including Customs and Border

[38:35] Protection agents and a Texas

[38:35] sheriff tracking a woman who

[38:39] had an abortion. Fox Floppy

[38:40] license plate readings have

[38:43] led to false accusations and

[38:44] fox careless security

[38:44] practices increase the risk of

[38:47] hackers stealing footage. When

[38:48] it comes to public safety. In

[38:49] Oakland, I trust the local

[38:51] violence prevention programs,

[38:53] not unaccountable. Tech

[38:54] companies were increasingly

[38:55] brutal and lawless federal

[38:58] agencies. I urge you all not

[39:00] to accept any expansion or

[39:02] extension Oakland City

[39:02] contracts with flock safety.

[39:11] Not now. We're not ever.

[39:12] Everyone, mark, I think I'm

[39:14] the person who put down tech

[39:15] workers coalition. So

[39:15] apologies for for that to feel

[39:18] that my name district, 3

[39:19] resident and I just want to

[39:23] say that. I guess I am a

[39:25] little happy the flock thing

[39:26] end up getting moved to last

[39:27] month because I definitely did

[39:28] look through those documents

[39:31] and was kind of surprised by

[39:33] how messy and how many data

[39:34] and things were missing from

[39:36] it. And I appreciate, you

[39:40] know, I pd for pulling that

[39:41] stuff off, but I can't give

[39:42] them 24 hours for being the

[39:42] people who presumably

[39:43] submitted that stuff in the

[39:45] first place. And so I would

[39:46] really urge that especially if

[39:46] this is the way that they're

[39:49] going to like handle their own

[39:52] data you know, we really

[39:54] treat. We treat them with a

[39:54] little bit of skepticism when

[39:55] they say that they're going to

[39:56] be good stewards for hours.

[40:00] And I also think that.

[40:00] Fundamentally, you know, it is

[40:04] not surveillance or nothing.

[40:05] You know, obviously, when you

[40:06] you know, when you compare

[40:07] lawlessness to surveillance,

[40:08] surveillance wins. But I think

[40:09] the ultimately there is

[40:09] another option, which is

[40:21] actually taking them. Hi, Jess

[40:22] Heroes. More of the absurd

[40:22] things that I've heard. Pro

[40:25] flock hawks on the city

[40:26] council saying from my

[40:28] councilmember Wang, I've heard

[40:29] you say that if ice deploys

[40:30] here, we will just turn the

[40:34] cameras off for So, you know,

[40:36] these cameras collect commute

[40:37] pattern data. So if you just

[40:38] turn them off, it will be too

[40:41] late. Ice will have that data.

[40:42] They will use it to do

[40:43] targeted abductions up our

[40:44] neighbors when they go to

[40:46] Dublin when they open Dublin

[40:47] and when when they pursue that

[40:51] to fill up that. That

[40:52] facility. So what I would like

[40:54] to know from you is what is

[40:55] the plan when ice does hear

[40:59] what they did in Minneapolis

[41:00] to warn every person that

[41:02] could be targeted by ice in

[41:03] the Trump administration that

[41:04] they need to immediately

[41:06] change their commute pattern

[41:08] data or have targeted

[41:09] abductions at them. That is a

[41:11] big task. He was going to do

[41:12] Are you gonna do it? Which

[41:14] department is going to it?

[41:16] What is the plan? When are you

[41:17] releasing the plan? Because

[41:25] this leaves us in danger. My

[41:26] name is an ion accidently

[41:34] sound up for 3 instead of 8.

[41:35] I'm not going to repeat the

[41:36] statistics or the information

[41:41] that is all really good. That

[41:42] my companions are. They're not

[41:43] my companions. But the people

[41:44] who feel the same way as me,

[41:47] which is that I strongly.

[41:50] Oppose flock pose celebrate. I

[41:50] oppose surveillance. I am

[41:54] shocked that. What this like,

[41:56] probably the 4th time I've

[41:57] been in front of either this

[41:58] committee or the full City

[42:03] council talking about this and

[42:06] what you listen to us. You

[42:08] listen to the lies of opd and

[42:11] you just go right ahead. So I

[42:13] just don't know what to say

[42:14] about it. I do want to say

[42:17] that we are supposedly a

[42:19] sanctuary city and should be

[42:20] very clear to each one of you

[42:24] at this point that. That ice

[42:26] can get into all of these.

[42:27] Certainly they can get into

[42:31] flock. So. It just seems like

[42:41] corruption to me. Madeline,

[42:48] Stacey. Alp Ares provide

[42:48] indiscriminate retrospectively

[42:50] location, data. Any person, no

[42:53] intermediary on demand. That

[42:57] is a search without a warrant

[42:57] with capability and track and

[42:58] follow some of the sensitive

[42:59] locations such as the

[43:03] hospital. Immigration lawyer,

[43:04] hospice churches, their home,

[43:04] their doctor, Planned

[43:05] Parenthood, their therapist,

[43:07] their lover's home and it can

[43:11] be used against lawful

[43:12] protesters. Celebrate will be

[43:14] used extrajudicial distance

[43:16] Lee in the report attached the

[43:17] agenda when the original

[43:18] contract was discussed with

[43:18] City Council. It states in

[43:22] addition to warrants, it will

[43:25] be used with documented

[43:25] consent to search the mobile

[43:26] device by the authorized

[43:28] possessor of the device. And

[43:28] we know health consent is

[43:32] obtained. All this data is

[43:34] sensitive and does not prevent

[43:35] crime. Stop the surveillance

[43:44] state cance the contracts now.

[43:47] Hello. My name is Angela Max.

[43:47] And I'm against is having any

[43:50] contract with flock. I've

[43:51] discovered a lot of really

[43:52] scary things about this

[43:55] company. They claim that they

[43:58] don't know where their data is

[43:59] being ai centers. It's Amazon

[44:02] ai center. Amazon says they to

[44:02] a globally depending on

[44:04] whatever the local laws are.

[44:06] So if it's legal here, they

[44:07] can do it in a different

[44:08] country or China and we don't

[44:09] have any control a piece

[44:11] looking at the data on that

[44:13] end today. Don't come any

[44:14] liability for the abuses in

[44:15] the system or try to build any

[44:19] way to stop the abuses. They

[44:21] retroactively and stop and say

[44:22] there was no data breach

[44:23] because basically 7 months ago

[44:23] that when even passports on

[44:28] these cameras. And it did

[44:29] partnership that they have

[44:30] that give the day to ice. They

[44:31] claim that they don't keep the

[44:32] data and then the claim that

[44:33] they have royalties the data

[44:35] indefinitely, meaning they are

[44:37] keeping it, they might not be

[44:38] doing it now, but they might

[44:39] sell it in the future that

[44:40] might be bought by a different

[44:41] company in the future. It

[44:42] would explain why they're not

[44:43] scared of liability because

[44:44] they plan on selling for just

[44:54] selling our data. Welcome

[44:56] back, everyone. I am pleased

[44:59] to see that after 100 plan

[44:59] care to name great public. Can

[45:01] you state your name for the

[45:09] record? All Satan is Excuse

[45:10] Hi. My name is Bree a woman. I

[45:11] she her pronouns. I'm a

[45:14] constituent for district 3 and

[45:15] I am very pleased to what

[45:16] happened earlier this member

[45:17] of the public eye causing your

[45:18] time. Mississauga. Do you give

[45:21] her your time? Ma'am? You can

[45:22] proceed East Army over then.

[45:25] You can proceed. This is not

[45:26] as giving your time. All

[45:30] right. I'm gonna scratch out

[45:31] that first part then because

[45:32] if you can't various that it

[45:33] to be here today because not

[45:35] to not only repeat myself, but

[45:35] to also hear my peers repeat

[45:38] themselves as well. I play I

[45:39] hope that you don't take my

[45:40] sarcasm is disrespect to try

[45:41] to put yourself in my shoes

[45:42] right? That as a young black

[45:44] woman, a 4th generation,

[45:46] Oakland native, that you as my

[45:47] representatives have decided

[45:50] to continue the flock

[45:51] expansion and explicitly

[45:52] expressed the complete

[45:55] disregard for my privacy that

[45:56] despite our budget deficit and

[45:58] utilize resources, a big and

[45:59] historical lack of police

[46:00] accountability still like to

[46:02] dump money into the system of

[46:03] enslavement and policing that

[46:04] was created to ineffectively

[46:06] harms every single day. The

[46:06] privacy lawsuit against fox

[46:09] should have been enough. The

[46:10] open budget deficit should

[46:11] have been an up and simply the

[46:13] outrage of your constituents

[46:14] should have been enough for

[46:15] you to say no in NOVEMBER and

[46:17] should be enough for you to

[46:18] say no. Now I don't appreciate

[46:19] the interest and I don't

[46:31] appreciate you guys cut. Thank

[46:32] you for your comments.

[46:34] Switching to Zoom user Blair,

[46:34] please unmute yourself and

[46:40] begin your comment. We need to

[46:41] move next speaker. Thank you

[46:45] so much. You no pillow. Hello,

[46:47] I'm I'm here. I'm here. Blair

[46:49] Beekman hi player. You

[46:50] continue. Thank you. Right.

[46:55] Thank you. I had kind of be

[46:55] moving and take get into a

[46:57] good position to speak and

[46:59] out. Biden public. Thank you

[47:02] for this item. I'm trusting

[47:05] your choice of police chief

[47:06] I'm not trusting how you're

[47:09] talking about block. When you

[47:11] voted for blocking DECEMBER of

[47:12] last year with the the

[47:12] attention, the police that

[47:14] they had to get the contract

[47:16] signed immediately. Where is

[47:18] the contract signing Park?

[47:18] That's right. Now is the

[47:19] actually been finding was at

[47:21] least with not signed. That's

[47:23] part of why you're not talking

[47:25] to us right now. And I feel

[47:29] you owe that Find or not. We

[47:31] could have been working you

[47:32] have a pay cut plan. Que lead

[47:35] to future o'clock. Few years

[47:35] time we could have been

[47:37] working on a one-year time

[47:38] praying. But you guys are

[47:39] putting things off and you are

[47:41] being incredibly on

[47:42] accountable with some really

[47:48] basic good ideas. Can we bring

[47:48] together good ideas and you

[47:49] guys be more accountable to

[47:50] the process? I think waiting

[47:52] to SEPTEMBER OCTOBER, you kind

[47:52] Thank you for your comments.

[47:58] Your time is up. Simon. Please

[48:00] unmute yourself. Did you sign

[48:01] up to speak on item number 8?

[48:01] And if so, what name did you

[48:05] sign up under? It should be

[48:06] Simon, Renee, I'm sorry. I do

[48:07] not have a speaker card filled

[48:12] out for you. Calling him the

[48:14] names that sign up the

[48:14] remaining names. Elizabeth

[48:18] Cochrane Noel for us and hot.

[48:18] Okay at this time on didn't

[48:21] have been called. Council

[48:27] member Brown. Excellent. Thank

[48:28] you so much. I just wanted to

[48:30] ask clarifying question

[48:32] because I know that when we

[48:34] were discussing, I think all

[48:35] of these items, you know, one

[48:36] of the things that we request,

[48:38] it was like an annual report

[48:41] back. And I know that these

[48:41] reports customarily go through

[48:44] the Privacy Commission, right?

[48:45] And so can I just get some

[48:46] clarity as far as why we have

[48:48] the side for us today. And I

[48:52] feel like the title is a

[48:56] misleading because it says to

[48:57] item number 2, making a

[49:00] determination, determination,

[49:02] whether the city should

[49:03] continue its use was the

[49:04] report back from the Privacy

[49:06] Commission around the annual

[49:09] reports. As far as all

[49:10] reports. When we presented to

[49:10] the Privacy Advisory

[49:13] Commission. I know all were

[49:17] proven past forward as far as

[49:18] delay in time. I'm not too

[49:20] sure why. I know there is some

[49:22] scheduling issues, but far as

[49:23] any more specifics, I'm not

[49:31] sure. Go ahead. Councilmember

[49:32] Brown. Okay. And then my next

[49:37] question since we pull item.

[49:38] Since a portion of the eye of

[49:41] the item was pulled item a and

[49:44] this was supposed to be an up

[49:47] day for the 2025. Reports and

[49:50] we're going to get this now

[49:51] even later where we've well

[49:54] into the fall. What's what's

[49:55] the status of the reports for,

[50:00] I guess like 6 months into

[50:03] 2026 or we get a report on

[50:04] this year, I think normally I

[50:05] could be wrong. We normally

[50:06] present to the Privacy

[50:08] Advisory Commission. Lost my

[50:12] voice newsy in APRIL. That's

[50:14] if that's something we need to

[50:15] re-evaluate. We can but

[50:15] usually prevent we present in

[50:22] APRIL. So this 2025 reported

[50:24] was presented to the Privacy

[50:25] Commission in APRIL of this

[50:27] year. I have to double check

[50:36] that. Do you have another

[50:39] question? Are you want to? I'm

[50:42] sorry about that I know I

[50:45] offer this report. It says MAY

[50:46] 7, 2026. 0, can I have to

[50:46] double check to see exactly

[50:47] when it was scheduled and

[50:51] present. Yeah, I'm I'm just

[50:53] I'm just raising that because,

[50:54] you know, by the time we get

[50:55] this information and data, you

[50:58] know, will be on standby,

[50:59] really interested in what the

[50:59] data is for the for the

[51:01] current year. That's just my

[51:04] feedback. Ok? Thank you.

[51:04] Councilmember Brown

[51:07] Councilmember Houston. To the

[51:10] chair. Are you doing sir?

[51:17] Still as representative of

[51:20] District 7, I get emails calls

[51:21] that support his flock. I

[51:23] mean, I don't get that many

[51:30] that bad. So. What to

[51:31] Councilmember Brown of you

[51:33] get, you know, e-mails about

[51:34] it from my district. I'm not

[51:35] saying I'm time my district

[51:36] for meals to the schip. Bill

[51:38] bill is to Lotus second

[51:40] railroad tracks, they say they

[51:44] want they want to protection.

[51:45] So I'm here and tell

[51:47] different. And so I want to

[51:48] know the U.S. Is from district

[51:52] 7. District said district

[51:56] saying from District 7, MISS

[51:56] It. You how you feel about

[52:00] tough love. Okay. So I'm

[52:05] saying this that my history

[52:06] fly. Right. So I want to move

[52:11] this. I want to move Okay. And

[52:12] and to be clear, we're going

[52:16] to be. Councilmember Houston.

[52:18] If you couldn't move the item

[52:18] without exhibit a actually are

[52:23] exhibit. Subsection a exhibit

[52:25] e which is alpr item because

[52:29] the request from opd is to

[52:31] actually present this in the

[52:34] fall time for later this year.

[52:40] That's correct. It's exhibit e

[52:42] it's the attachment exhibit e

[52:44] but it is item. Like some item

[52:48] a. That like to move it like

[52:50] that? 10, not people want from

[52:56] a move. Just so the public was

[52:58] clear. This vote actually

[52:59] removes the alpr item from

[53:01] this from today's vote. We

[53:02] will return to this in the

[53:07] fall time. And I will to be

[53:08] determined. I will second

[53:15] that. Thank you. We have a

[53:16] motion made by Councilmember

[53:19] Houston second by Chair Wang

[53:59] remove the lpr information.

[54:03] Thanks. So noted. Now going

[54:06] back to the original order of

[54:07] the agenda, reading in item

[54:15] number 3. Adopt a resolution

[54:15] authorizing the city

[54:16] administrator or designee to

[54:18] enter into an operation on it

[54:19] area agreement with Alameda

[54:22] County to participate and

[54:23] intermediate level of the

[54:23] State of Emergency Services

[54:24] organization that will comply

[54:26] with the state of California

[54:29] Sanitize Emergency management

[54:31] systems for the period of For

[54:32] the period from edification to

[54:35] DECEMBER 31st. 2000. 35 and we

[54:40] have 3 speakers on this item.

[54:41] Okay. Do we have a

[54:41] representative from a lefty

[54:48] here? Good afternoon. Good all

[54:50] the pro. And this is the

[54:51] emergency manager for the city

[54:54] of Oakland from the fire

[54:55] Department. Okay. It has

[54:55] please ahead. The floor is

[55:02] yours. The Oakland City

[55:04] Council has adopted this

[55:05] original 10 year, all

[55:06] operational area agreement in

[55:12] 1990, hi. And then

[55:13] subsequently on 1/11/2006, and

[55:14] that one has expired on

[55:19] DECEMBER 2025. Alameda County

[55:23] has just approved their

[55:25] agreement with Alameda County

[55:26] agencies. Both government, non

[55:30] government nonprofit. To

[55:33] participate in this

[55:34] organization. There's no cost

[55:37] to the city of Oakland. It is

[55:40] really for coordination of the

[55:41] resources, information and

[55:41] mutual aid during disasters

[55:48] and emergencies. Great. I'm

[55:49] not seeing any comments or

[55:49] questions from my colleagues.

[55:50] So let's first go to public

[55:54] comment. Calling in the names

[55:55] that signed up to speak on

[55:55] item number 3, Jesse Rose

[55:56] Morris, not all Linda Blair

[56:10] Beekman.

[56:10] Hi, sorry on that

[56:11] last in that deliberation.

[56:13] Just now I'm just here as more

[56:15] on. Seems like you guys can

[56:17] even get straight what you

[56:18] snuck into the agenda and such

[56:19] a long, lengthy pack it out.

[56:20] Now one of our public speakers

[56:21] had a print it out. Can see

[56:25] how thick it was. And you gave

[56:26] one minute per person for all

[56:26] of that. Okay. So for this

[56:30] item here. Page who says the

[56:31] Alameda County sheriff will be

[56:33] the operational area

[56:35] coordinator and that we will

[56:36] have to count on them in the

[56:39] case of a disaster. And since

[56:41] we care about flock, we care

[56:42] about what's happening with

[56:43] flock in Alameda County. And

[56:44] we have seen the Alameda

[56:46] County Sheriff lie point blank

[56:47] to the public about what is

[56:50] happening with flock and what

[56:50] they've done around. There's

[56:51] their public outreach on the

[56:54] item. It isn't page 2 and

[56:55] looking at page 2, it says

[56:56] that that's going that's we're

[56:56] going to be counting on for

[57:00] these emergency services. They

[57:01] in public outreach said that

[57:03] nobody had any concerns about

[57:05] flock when they ram this

[57:06] through the Alameda County

[57:07] Board of Supervisors and

[57:08] several public commenters

[57:16] called them out for line. So

[57:19] one of the one of the big that

[57:24] is a big challenge. Is when we

[57:25] have evacuation procedures and

[57:30] it involves all students. Usd

[57:32] is not a neighborhood school

[57:32] district. It is a choice

[57:35] district. We have children

[57:38] scattered throughout the city.

[57:40] And that's going to be more

[57:41] challenging the neighborhoods

[57:42] when I lived in New Orleans

[57:44] and we had an emergency

[57:45] parents will call and he would

[57:47] run to come pick up the kids.

[57:52] Can't do that. 7 the larger

[57:53] percent all children are

[57:54] spread throughout the city.

[57:55] What happens to those

[57:57] children? When they separated

[58:01] from their parents? And we

[58:02] have to do something to

[58:03] protect them house and get

[58:04] them back home. This

[58:10] challenging Skyline. 1400

[58:11] students, no evacuation

[58:16] process. In place except to

[58:16] shelter in place on the

[58:17] football field. In the case of

[58:23] love. Thank you for comments.

[58:31] Missile of Thank you, sir.

[58:32] Switching to Zoom user Blair,

[58:33] you use up and begin your

[58:39] comment. I'm an agreement with

[58:41] the first public comment a lot

[58:43] of important items on the

[58:45] previous agenda item. Really

[58:46] needs like a minute 30, that

[58:47] additional 30nd be a lot of

[58:49] help. I hope you could learn

[58:52] that sort like the ability and

[58:53] Peter public meeting mid 30's

[58:54] definitely need to win. The

[58:55] item is brought to counsel.

[58:56] Good luck in that effort to

[58:57] consider that concept. We one

[58:59] 30 a bit more. Think not all

[59:01] the time. Just a bit more. I

[59:06] want to comment for this item

[59:08] yeah, I you know, the work the

[59:13] person are weighing doing the

[59:14] international boulevard issues

[59:18] around 12th Street. And so I

[59:19] can office of Emergency

[59:19] Services at the California

[59:23] state level be of help. And I

[59:24] suppose the story of item can

[59:25] be helpful in in working with

[59:28] Alameda County and such. It's

[59:30] towards, you know, not law

[59:32] enforcement. That's why part

[59:34] of Office of Emergency

[59:35] Services to address the

[59:35] California Office of Emergency

[59:36] Services. Good Luck and that

[59:38] content. Thank you. Thank you

[59:39] for your comments. Sure. That

[59:39] includes all speakers on item

[59:43] 3. Thank you, Clark. Yes, so

[59:45] thank you for bringing this

[59:49] item before us. I do have just

[59:51] a question around how often

[59:52] the mutual aid comes to

[59:55] Oakland versus when the city

[59:56] of Oakland supporting our

[1:00:03] neighboring jurisdictions.

[1:00:04] There's a mutual aid agreement

[1:00:05] fire and police. And this is

[1:00:08] not part of that. This for

[1:00:09] emergency services for

[1:00:10] planning response and recovery

[1:00:16] purposes. Only. This board.

[1:00:18] They on a county into 2 was

[1:00:22] created after the 1991 Oakland

[1:00:23] And this is in the California

[1:00:28] code. To ensure that we all

[1:00:30] agencies in Alameda County,

[1:00:32] both government, not a

[1:00:33] government and non-profit and

[1:00:35] special districts that we all

[1:00:37] have a way to coordinate with

[1:00:39] each other to create a mutual

[1:00:42] trainings and exercises which

[1:00:42] enhance our capacity to

[1:00:47] respond. And according to

[1:00:47] Sam's the standardized

[1:00:50] emergency management System

[1:00:54] and National Incident Command

[1:00:55] system, the way people work.

[1:00:57] The disaster is always local.

[1:00:58] It starts in in the

[1:01:01] jurisdictions in this case say

[1:01:02] Oakland, then once we lost our

[1:01:05] resources in Oakland in all or

[1:01:06] some capacity, then it goes to

[1:01:08] the operational area, which

[1:01:10] for us is the county. And that

[1:01:12] is what is stop is established

[1:01:12] by the California code

[1:01:17] following the 91 opened fire.

[1:01:18] If the county is out of

[1:01:20] resources can no longer

[1:01:23] support us, then it goes to

[1:01:23] the region and then the state

[1:01:24] and then federal. So that's

[1:01:28] the progression of response

[1:01:31] being closely connected to the

[1:01:33] Alameda County ensures that we

[1:01:36] as all cities get support one

[1:01:37] another if we are affected

[1:01:39] than others and not them, the

[1:01:40] resources can come from them

[1:01:41] through the Alameda County

[1:01:43] Coordination. So that's an

[1:01:44] important part of this

[1:01:47] partnership. Plus, training

[1:01:47] and less exercise because no

[1:01:49] one jurisdiction has the

[1:01:52] capacity or the finances to

[1:01:54] create enough trainings and

[1:01:56] exercises to train city staff

[1:01:57] to train our partners in

[1:02:00] church community. Okay. Great.

[1:02:01] So that's a helpful

[1:02:03] clarification. So this is

[1:02:04] really pertaining to natural

[1:02:06] disaster. Planning it. It

[1:02:07] sounds like not so much mutual

[1:02:10] aid as it pertains to either

[1:02:11] law enforcement Okay. That's

[1:02:12] that's a separate issue

[1:02:15] altogether. Different code.

[1:02:17] Okay. So you know, this

[1:02:18] pertains to preparedness

[1:02:20] reminisce response, recovery

[1:02:22] and mitigation. So we all work

[1:02:25] together to ensure our

[1:02:25] collective reading is not just

[1:02:27] for natural disasters, manmade

[1:02:30] as Cyber attack that we've

[1:02:33] spent a couple of years We

[1:02:34] were we had were heavily

[1:02:36] relying on the county and also

[1:02:37] I think jurisdictional

[1:02:38] experience with similar tax to

[1:02:39] ensure that we take the right

[1:02:40] steps. And employee right

[1:02:43] partnerships. Okay. Great one

[1:02:44] final question. Then I'll turn

[1:02:46] it over to Councilmember Brown

[1:02:47] is just have you all been

[1:02:50] looking into just the or

[1:02:52] coordinating of like the text

[1:02:52] alerts and just notifications

[1:02:57] to residents in the case of a

[1:02:58] serious incident. Absolutely.

[1:03:01] In fact, we're getting ready

[1:03:02] deplore a campaign for a

[1:03:04] sailor which stands for

[1:03:06] Alameda County alerting System

[1:03:08] many of such tools are

[1:03:10] available through the county

[1:03:10] because again, the

[1:03:11] municipalities don't have the

[1:03:14] resources to buy platforms and

[1:03:16] so forth and So we do have a

[1:03:17] see a lurch in the city of

[1:03:20] Oakland. We have 2 levels.

[1:03:22] It's an opt in system. So

[1:03:24] people have to sign We have

[1:03:25] one that is specific to the

[1:03:27] city of Oakland when we have

[1:03:29] something that is important to

[1:03:32] staff based on location or an

[1:03:33] incident. And then we also

[1:03:35] have a resident alert. And in

[1:03:36] fact, those who were signed up

[1:03:40] for a sailor on JULY 4 prior

[1:03:43] to JULY 4th, prior to JULY,

[1:03:44] 3rd would have received 2

[1:03:45] alerts indicating the street

[1:03:47] closures for JULY 4th

[1:03:49] celebrations any other

[1:03:49] important information that

[1:03:52] needed to be distributed show

[1:03:54] our residents and our visitors

[1:03:54] knew where when and how to get

[1:03:57] around the city. So we do

[1:04:00] deploy ac alert regularly,

[1:04:02] both for internal staff for

[1:04:05] things that matter to

[1:04:07] particular department and to

[1:04:08] our residents when it doesn't

[1:04:08] have to be disaster. JULY 4th

[1:04:11] with a celebration. That's

[1:04:11] good to know. Thank you.

[1:04:16] Councilmember Brown.

[1:04:17] Excellent. Thank you so much

[1:04:19] for the report. I'm very

[1:04:21] familiar with the emergency

[1:04:22] management kind of protocol

[1:04:23] and system. I got to take a

[1:04:25] handful, of course, is on

[1:04:27] emergency management. And so I

[1:04:28] know that is very complex. But

[1:04:31] it also requires, as you

[1:04:33] mention, you know, working

[1:04:35] across all of our governmental

[1:04:38] systems, right to ensure its

[1:04:41] success. So my question is one

[1:04:43] of can you just at a high

[1:04:45] level, maybe share with me

[1:04:46] given that we're going to

[1:04:50] enter into a contract that

[1:04:50] that is about, you know, a

[1:04:53] years long, pretty lengthy. He

[1:04:54] walked me through, like what

[1:04:57] are some of the court nation

[1:04:57] efforts that will that will

[1:05:01] kind of take place to ensure

[1:05:02] you know, just continued

[1:05:05] coordination like either, you

[1:05:06] know, 6 months check, ins are

[1:05:08] like what? What is the how how

[1:05:11] is the relationship like

[1:05:11] genuinely maintained?

[1:05:13] Absolutely. Is a question.

[1:05:15] Thank you. So this this

[1:05:16] agreement is between as the

[1:05:17] city of Oakland and Alameda

[1:05:20] County in every other

[1:05:22] jurisdiction, governments

[1:05:23] government, non-profit special

[1:05:25] districts also entering into

[1:05:26] this agreement on their

[1:05:31] behalf. So So what happens is

[1:05:32] we need quarterly and by we I

[1:05:33] don't mean that certainly I

[1:05:34] go. But somebody from it will

[1:05:37] go to the quarterly meetings.

[1:05:40] We also have a monthly Check

[1:05:41] just with the government

[1:05:41] entities. So that's

[1:05:45] specialized for government. We

[1:05:47] have joint training

[1:05:48] opportunities several times a

[1:05:49] year. A little bit hard to

[1:05:51] quantify. Sometimes it's

[1:05:52] months. And then sometimes

[1:05:53] it's every other month. You

[1:05:56] know, that sort of probably

[1:05:59] have about dozen training

[1:06:02] opportunities a year just our

[1:06:04] counties. Alameda County's who

[1:06:05] takes that on who runs the the

[1:06:07] expense organization of it and

[1:06:07] all of it for for us to take

[1:06:14] advantage of it. We also

[1:06:16] multiple exercises a years

[1:06:17] some big, some small. What

[1:06:19] also the county does for all

[1:06:21] of our jurisdictions. They

[1:06:23] organize planning one of the

[1:06:24] blessings that we have so far

[1:06:25] this year. What's what's in

[1:06:30] response? And before anybody

[1:06:32] says we are at risk for maybe

[1:06:34] not a huge risk but risk. So

[1:06:35] we city of Oakland

[1:06:38] participated with the city of

[1:06:39] county and the contractor that

[1:06:40] they hired to create

[1:06:44] oakland-alameda specific

[1:06:45] tsunami plan. If that happens,

[1:06:46] what do we do in the county?

[1:06:47] Other county agencies were

[1:06:53] involved but plans

[1:06:53] additionally with just

[1:06:55] planning how train elected

[1:07:00] officials. On emergency

[1:07:02] response. We haven't ruled it

[1:07:04] out. The work has just been

[1:07:07] completed. But at some point

[1:07:08] you all of our elected elected

[1:07:10] officials will get a very nice

[1:07:12] booklet that spells out. And

[1:07:14] this happens. This is what is

[1:07:15] need that if that happens,

[1:07:17] this is what is needed and

[1:07:19] will conduct the training for

[1:07:20] just the city of Oakland

[1:07:21] elected officials. Those in

[1:07:23] just a few examples of how

[1:07:24] county supports the city of

[1:07:26] Oakland in other

[1:07:27] jurisdictions. Excellent.

[1:07:28] Thank you so much. And I know

[1:07:30] last year some of us myself

[1:07:32] and some of the other offices

[1:07:35] attended a training at o c

[1:07:37] Around. You there's a handful

[1:07:37] of things that we that we got

[1:07:41] the opportunity to align. So

[1:07:42] if my colleagues haven't had

[1:07:44] the opportunity to do it was

[1:07:45] very insightful. And the team

[1:07:46] that we have working at the

[1:07:49] dot, they are phenomenal.

[1:07:50] Excellent. So thank you so

[1:07:51] much for that report. I'm

[1:07:54] happy to move the item, ok?

[1:07:55] Great. I will second that I

[1:07:56] just have one more comment to

[1:07:58] make it. I was making the

[1:07:59] connection what actually my

[1:08:01] questions before around the

[1:08:05] alert systems. I remember

[1:08:07] reading about Maui and when

[1:08:09] there was that wildfire and

[1:08:11] the fact that the sirens did

[1:08:12] not deploy and I think it

[1:08:15] looks like in San Francisco.

[1:08:16] Because there has not been the

[1:08:19] funding. The siren system is

[1:08:20] currently offline. I don't

[1:08:20] know the status here in

[1:08:23] Alameda County, but I do think

[1:08:24] that is something for us to

[1:08:27] ensure that we have that up

[1:08:28] and running. Since we know

[1:08:32] with climate change. A natural

[1:08:34] disaster is inevitable as evil

[1:08:35] as you yourself have stated

[1:08:36] with the tsunami risk

[1:08:39] wildfires, everything and so I

[1:08:40] want to make sure that we have

[1:08:42] that in place and that we're

[1:08:44] we're ready is a county and

[1:08:47] the city. Just need Sure.

[1:08:51] Yeah. Sleuthing. So it the

[1:08:51] counting this particular would

[1:08:53] have anything to do with this.

[1:08:53] The city of Oakland maintains

[1:08:57] its own siren system. We test

[1:08:58] sirens every month on the

[1:09:01] first Wednesday at noon, I

[1:09:03] would one sound for a minute

[1:09:05] us out. If you hear the siren

[1:09:06] on any other day of the week,

[1:09:09] any other time. There are 3

[1:09:10] types of Jones, but don't

[1:09:13] expect everyone remember If

[1:09:15] you hear something, then go to

[1:09:17] the official news resource we

[1:09:20] most of our sirens are fully

[1:09:21] functional and operational. We

[1:09:24] have a couple that are

[1:09:25] currently maintenance status.

[1:09:26] But this sirens scheme on

[1:09:27] around the city such that even

[1:09:30] if one is out, there are

[1:09:32] others around the area about

[1:09:33] what that would sound. So

[1:09:37] nobody is without any sound.

[1:09:38] And we do testing regularly

[1:09:40] and we have 3 agency so to

[1:09:40] speak that are responsible for

[1:09:43] activation in case need that.

[1:09:44] And that would be through the

[1:09:46] fire dispatch. Police dispatch

[1:09:47] or emergency management or the

[1:09:51] radio group of Public works

[1:09:53] great. So it sounds like

[1:09:54] Francisco, our siren system is

[1:09:57] in fact working. Correct. And

[1:09:58] we do work with to shop for

[1:10:01] public works. And with public

[1:10:03] electricians and Eugenie and

[1:10:05] so forth to ensure that all of

[1:10:06] our signs or an operational

[1:10:10] condition. But yes, it is

[1:10:12] aging infrastructure. So every

[1:10:12] now and then for one reason or

[1:10:14] another wanted sirens will go

[1:10:16] off line. But we are

[1:10:17] maintaining them. We are

[1:10:20] upgrading them by we I mean,

[1:10:21] the city majority that there's

[1:10:23] only 2 of them that are county

[1:10:24] maintenance. Great. Thank you.

[1:10:28] Let's move to the Thank you.

[1:10:29] We have a motion made by

[1:10:30] Councilmember bound second by

[1:10:33] Chair Wang to approve the

[1:10:34] recommendations of stop and

[1:10:35] support this item to the JULY

[1:10:37] 20 per City Council agenda on

[1:10:37] $0.10, honorable

[1:10:43] councilmembers. And Cher. Wang

[1:10:49] I thank you. Item passes with

[1:10:49] 3 eyes when excused by to port

[1:10:49] this item to the JULY 21st

[1:10:52] City Council agenda on consent

[1:10:53] reading in item for adopt a

[1:10:54] resolution accepting the

[1:10:55] Department of Violence

[1:10:59] Prevention's 2026 apricots

[1:11:01] annual report and approving

[1:11:02] ended policy has approved by

[1:11:03] the Privacy Advisory

[1:11:06] Commission on JUNE 4th, 2026

[1:11:07] and there are 4 speakers that

[1:11:08] signed up to speak on this

[1:11:12] item. Go ahead and take away

[1:11:16] the floor is yours. Thank you.

[1:11:17] Good evening, Councilmembers.

[1:11:18] Jenny Lind she deputy chief of

[1:11:19] grants programs and evaluation

[1:11:21] for the Department Violence

[1:11:22] Prevention and Wait for most

[1:11:27] lines. Great. So I am

[1:11:29] presenting on our apricot

[1:11:30] 3.60, annual report and update

[1:11:34] it. Use policy. High-level pre

[1:11:37] cut 3.60 Is a cloud-based

[1:11:38] system developed by on Terra

[1:11:39] for use by social service

[1:11:40] providers to track service

[1:11:42] delivery and grant management

[1:11:44] tasks. This is the system that

[1:11:45] the Department Violence

[1:11:47] Prevention uses for our own

[1:11:49] internal direct service staff

[1:11:51] and also for the agencies that

[1:11:52] we fund to enter information

[1:11:56] about service delivery. The

[1:11:57] system was first approved by

[1:11:59] the Privacy Advisory Committee

[1:12:03] Shun and City Council JULY of

[1:12:04] 2022, it was then customized

[1:12:04] and implemented by the dpp in

[1:12:07] JANUARY of 2023. Replacing our

[1:12:10] old System City's ban. And

[1:12:12] since then, we've had annual

[1:12:13] reports and use policies

[1:12:14] approved by the Privacy

[1:12:17] Advisory Commission. Every

[1:12:18] JUNE since JUNE 2024. 2025 and

[1:12:21] most recently 2026. The system

[1:12:25] has multiple uses for direct

[1:12:27] service staff both employed by

[1:12:28] the dpp and by the agencies

[1:12:30] that we fund the system can be

[1:12:34] used to track enrollment

[1:12:36] service, engagement milestones

[1:12:37] and outcomes for individuals

[1:12:40] who are engaged services and

[1:12:40] then additionally for agencies

[1:12:43] that deliver group level

[1:12:44] services, it tracks

[1:12:47] information such as

[1:12:47] attendance, duration content

[1:12:51] of group services. For

[1:12:53] supervisory staff again within

[1:12:54] the dp and our friend of

[1:12:55] agencies. They can use the

[1:12:57] system to review the services

[1:12:58] that are being delivered by

[1:12:59] the individuals. They

[1:13:00] supervise to monitor service

[1:13:01] delivery and track performance

[1:13:08] metrics. Grant Management

[1:13:09] staff both within the dp and

[1:13:10] are funded agencies use the

[1:13:12] system to track budgets been

[1:13:13] down. So we have reports that

[1:13:14] are automatically generated

[1:13:17] every quarter to to show how

[1:13:19] expenses are being spent

[1:13:20] various categories. It's how

[1:13:22] we track progress on contract

[1:13:24] deliverables that we also have

[1:13:25] a standard report for every

[1:13:25] contract that's based on the

[1:13:27] service deliverables in scopes

[1:13:29] of work. And it shows exactly

[1:13:30] where agencies are supposed to

[1:13:32] be every quarter and then

[1:13:36] where they actually are. And

[1:13:37] then we use it to receive and

[1:13:40] process quarterly invoices. So

[1:13:40] every quarter agencies input

[1:13:43] information about what they

[1:13:44] did a quarter about their

[1:13:45] expenses, we review all the

[1:13:45] information. That's how we

[1:13:49] process voices. A few select

[1:13:50] program staff within the dp

[1:13:53] Use the system to coordinate

[1:13:55] services between agencies and

[1:13:56] support Effective

[1:13:56] implementations of example of

[1:13:57] this is the violence

[1:14:01] interruption services. We fund

[1:14:01] for community-based

[1:14:02] organizations to deliver

[1:14:03] violence interruption in

[1:14:05] services in Oakland. But the

[1:14:06] deep he also has internal the

[1:14:08] eyes to kind of quarterback

[1:14:09] that work. And so the ability

[1:14:13] for them to see updates that

[1:14:14] are being entered by the

[1:14:14] various agencies is very

[1:14:15] helpful in coordinating the

[1:14:19] response. And then lastly, due

[1:14:20] to an evaluation staff use the

[1:14:21] system to summarize service

[1:14:25] delivery information for

[1:14:25] reports to counsel to

[1:14:29] commissions to funders to

[1:14:30] monitor consent form

[1:14:31] completion and eligibility

[1:14:34] criteria. So we have standard

[1:14:35] eligibility criteria for gun

[1:14:36] violence services, for

[1:14:38] instance, or one data

[1:14:39] specialist make sure that that

[1:14:42] those criteria being met and

[1:14:43] then of their data entry

[1:14:43] errors, there's regular checks

[1:14:49] on that. For the annual year

[1:14:51] of 2025, the system was used

[1:14:53] by approximately 36 staff from

[1:14:56] the dp and 170 Community-based

[1:14:59] organizations. There were also

[1:15:01] individual records entered for

[1:15:02] about 2400 individuals.

[1:15:07] Participants in services. In

[1:15:09] terms of data sharing de

[1:15:11] identified data for all

[1:15:12] participants and then

[1:15:13] personally identifiable

[1:15:14] information, which means name

[1:15:15] and date of birth for

[1:15:16] individuals who provided their

[1:15:19] affirmative consent shared

[1:15:21] with the same party in 2

[1:15:24] different occasions. One was

[1:15:26] Urban Institute for their

[1:15:28] evaluation of Measure z funded

[1:15:28] services and one was Urban

[1:15:29] Institute for their evaluation

[1:15:33] of a state grant that we have.

[1:15:35] We have had no complaints or

[1:15:36] concerns raised about the

[1:15:37] system regarding its

[1:15:41] protection of civil rights are

[1:15:42] civil liberties. And our data

[1:15:43] analyst is in frequent

[1:15:44] communication with grantees

[1:15:46] about a number of things. And

[1:15:47] when he receives feedback on

[1:15:48] how ways to improve the system

[1:15:49] are additional things that

[1:15:50] they want. Clark did. We're

[1:15:54] happy to make those changes or

[1:15:54] develop reports that would be

[1:15:55] helpful for them to monitor

[1:16:00] service delivery. Service

[1:16:01] delivery. Information in a pre

[1:16:03] cut is limited to high-level

[1:16:04] information. So it's number

[1:16:08] and duration of contacts and

[1:16:10] service outcomes personally,

[1:16:12] information is only required

[1:16:12] for adults who are receiving

[1:16:14] services related to gun

[1:16:16] violence. It is not required

[1:16:19] for youth at all or for

[1:16:20] individuals who are receiving

[1:16:20] services related to

[1:16:25] gender-based violence. This is

[1:16:26] a high-level overview of the

[1:16:28] reason the city breakdown of

[1:16:29] individuals who are entered a

[1:16:30] neighbor caught being served

[1:16:33] by Dbpr gdp, funded

[1:16:35] organization services. If you

[1:16:35] take away the missing, these

[1:16:36] percentages are actually

[1:16:38] slightly higher. Still, the

[1:16:39] majority of individuals being

[1:16:41] served are African-American or

[1:16:44] Latino that closely mirrors

[1:16:45] the breakdown of recent city

[1:16:46] for individuals impacted by

[1:16:48] gun violence and domestic

[1:16:48] violence and commercial sexual

[1:16:50] exploitation in Oakland, which

[1:16:50] is what we're charged to

[1:16:56] reduce. We regularly review

[1:16:58] There have been not been any

[1:16:59] violations or potential

[1:17:01] violations of use policy to

[1:17:02] date that we're aware of. Also

[1:17:04] been no data breaches are

[1:17:05] unauthorized access. And we

[1:17:06] have had no public records

[1:17:07] request pertaining to the

[1:17:13] system. The annual cost of the

[1:17:14] system in upcoming fiscal year

[1:17:16] is $125,000. Approximately

[1:17:17] half of that will come from

[1:17:19] our general purpose fund. And

[1:17:20] then we try to write in a

[1:17:21] portion of that into every

[1:17:22] extra grant that we got about.

[1:17:23] Half of that is funded by

[1:17:30] external grants. In terms of

[1:17:31] efficacy. Apricot 3.60,

[1:17:32] invaluable in our work. In

[1:17:35] many ways, it's allowed us to

[1:17:37] ensure alignment with best

[1:17:38] practices, specifically ready

[1:17:38] relating to cease-fire

[1:17:42] lifeline. So our Chief Holly

[1:17:43] Joshi, our deputy Chief

[1:17:44] Danielle Medina, who oversee

[1:17:48] all of that word they receive

[1:17:48] weekly performance reports

[1:17:50] where they're able to see

[1:17:51] exactly what all of the life

[1:17:51] coaches and violence

[1:17:52] Interrupters are doing to

[1:17:54] implement the model. And sure,

[1:17:55] but they're having the high

[1:17:56] touch plants that are required

[1:18:00] to achieve impact. It's also

[1:18:01] how we as we discussed in

[1:18:03] prior meetings, how we hold

[1:18:04] CEOs accountable it, how we

[1:18:06] track their performance

[1:18:07] metrics to make sure that

[1:18:07] their meeting, what we said

[1:18:08] that they were going to do in

[1:18:11] their scope support. It's how

[1:18:13] we coordinate service tear. It

[1:18:14] supports rather coordinating

[1:18:15] service delivery within the

[1:18:16] group strategy. As I

[1:18:18] mentioned, specifically around

[1:18:19] violence interruption. It

[1:18:21] allows us to easily summarized

[1:18:25] share data with it. Groups

[1:18:26] like City Council Oversight

[1:18:28] bodies, Public funders and

[1:18:30] then, of course, it is the

[1:18:33] source of data that we use for

[1:18:34] impact evaluations. So for the

[1:18:35] measure z funded evaluation

[1:18:35] evidence to it, this is the

[1:18:38] source of the data for any

[1:18:39] future evaluations that are

[1:18:40] funded measure. This is where

[1:18:45] the data will come from. And

[1:18:46] then lastly, we're proposing a

[1:18:47] one amendment to the use

[1:18:49] policy this year. The current

[1:18:53] use policy states that.

[1:18:53] Personally identify well

[1:18:55] information again, name and

[1:18:56] date of birth is not entered

[1:18:57] for individuals receiving

[1:18:59] services related to

[1:19:00] gender-based violence. We

[1:19:00] would like to just change that

[1:19:02] language to say is not

[1:19:03] required. We would like to

[1:19:07] just as we do for youth, give

[1:19:08] them the opportunity to opt

[1:19:10] into sharing data because it's

[1:19:11] so powerful and hopeful for

[1:19:13] evaluation purposes. That was

[1:19:14] one of the findings from

[1:19:15] Measure z evaluators was that

[1:19:17] they simply didn't have

[1:19:20] enough. They didn't have data

[1:19:21] at the individual level to be

[1:19:22] able to do impact evaluation

[1:19:24] for gender-based violence

[1:19:25] services. So with this change,

[1:19:26] we would simply be giving

[1:19:27] people the opportunity to say

[1:19:29] yes or now, of course, they

[1:19:31] can always ristaino and still

[1:19:31] services. There would be no

[1:19:35] bearing on not. And that

[1:19:35] concludes the presentation.

[1:19:38] I'm happy to take questions.

[1:19:43] Council member Brown. Not

[1:19:45] necessarily question, but more

[1:19:46] of a comment just in reading

[1:19:48] and reviewing the report. He

[1:19:51] seems very clear that program

[1:19:55] and like the system is working

[1:19:59] very well. And it also has a

[1:20:00] clear nexis to win. You all

[1:20:03] come back and share. Hey, how

[1:20:04] are these community-based

[1:20:06] organizations doing with the

[1:20:08] program services? And it also

[1:20:10] sounds like maybe we should

[1:20:11] duplicated in other

[1:20:12] departments, ku that utilize

[1:20:13] it as well because it just

[1:20:15] really seems like that it a

[1:20:19] It's a great tool to really

[1:20:20] collect the data and get the

[1:20:21] clear feedback. But thank you

[1:20:22] so much for that report.

[1:20:24] Really appreciate it. And

[1:20:25] through the chair to

[1:20:27] councilmember and just to add,

[1:20:30] it is a great tool. It's far

[1:20:31] superior to the former tool

[1:20:33] that we're using and allows us

[1:20:35] to again, not only track that

[1:20:37] he did that create all kinds

[1:20:38] of customizable reports that

[1:20:38] are really helpful for

[1:20:41] implementation. One thing

[1:20:43] that's very exciting is that

[1:20:44] we were able to about a year

[1:20:45] and a half ago. Pouch are

[1:20:46] former technical assistance

[1:20:49] provider from Terre and he's

[1:20:49] now an employee of the

[1:20:50] Department of Violence

[1:20:54] Prevention. So we have. Lot of

[1:20:55] this recipe to do really cool

[1:20:57] things if for some reason,

[1:20:59] another department adopt the

[1:21:00] technology would be happy to

[1:21:02] lend his expertise. That's

[1:21:03] phenomenal. Thank all. Make a

[1:21:06] motion to move the item well

[1:21:07] as good. Well done. What a way

[1:21:08] to fill are Councilmember

[1:21:13] Houston. To chair what to wear

[1:21:15] using prior to this the one

[1:21:18] that you're using prior? How's

[1:21:21] it being done before threw the

[1:21:22] chair to councilmember

[1:21:22] Houston. We're easing city

[1:21:26] spam. It's still needs believe

[1:21:27] by the Department of Human

[1:21:31] Services. Was not. We were not

[1:21:35] able to enter personally

[1:21:38] identify or like individual

[1:21:40] level data from the

[1:21:41] community-based organizations

[1:21:43] that we fund and then us

[1:21:45] people to summarize bought

[1:21:45] into deliverables and 2

[1:21:46] reports that were able to

[1:21:51] easily see. So the agencies

[1:21:52] were instant some entering

[1:21:53] already summarize data. So

[1:21:54] that would be boxes that say

[1:21:54] how many individuals that use

[1:21:58] or rather than entries of

[1:21:59] individuals served being

[1:22:00] summarizing reports that we

[1:22:01] can see. It gives us a little

[1:22:03] bit more accountability. And

[1:22:04] also support with service

[1:22:15] coordination. And then before

[1:22:15] I second the item, I just

[1:22:19] have. Of wealth. One comment,

[1:22:23] which is I do agree with my

[1:22:24] colleague. It sounds like this

[1:22:27] system has some use, say, for

[1:22:28] example, human services that

[1:22:32] we know has challenges around.

[1:22:33] Reimbursements that does a

[1:22:35] system actually support the

[1:22:36] reimbursement of the providers

[1:22:39] are. This is simply sort

[1:22:41] tracking performance metrics.

[1:22:45] We use it to prepare the

[1:22:45] invoice that is submitted into

[1:22:49] the ap portal. So the ap

[1:22:50] portal is still the system

[1:22:50] that is used to actually

[1:22:52] process the invoice and issue

[1:22:55] payment. But we use this to

[1:22:56] prepare all of the

[1:22:57] documentation that goes into

[1:23:00] the ap portal, including the

[1:23:01] itemized spend on of

[1:23:02] expenditures and the summary

[1:23:04] deliverables achieved. Okay.

[1:23:06] Interesting. And then just

[1:23:08] with regards to the amendment,

[1:23:09] I'm sure that you thought of

[1:23:11] this, but I just would like to

[1:23:15] vet this is given, of course,

[1:23:17] the data special data privacy

[1:23:18] needs for like a domestic

[1:23:19] violence victim or a

[1:23:20] trafficking victim. What

[1:23:24] privacy controls are privacy.

[1:23:25] Protections are included in

[1:23:27] the system to ensure that that

[1:23:32] the data can be misused so.

[1:23:34] The data are only access.

[1:23:35] Every user of the system has

[1:23:38] very specialized permissions.

[1:23:41] So any staff member to its

[1:23:42] community based organization,

[1:23:43] for instance, can only access

[1:23:43] data that they enter. Not that

[1:23:46] anyone else. And jurors. And

[1:23:49] that's the case for everyone.

[1:23:50] The exception to that is the

[1:23:51] data specialist who works for

[1:23:52] the dp and myself have

[1:23:54] slightly broader credentials.

[1:23:56] But for the most part,

[1:23:57] individuals to access the

[1:23:57] system only have access to the

[1:24:00] data that they enter. Somewhat

[1:24:03] related is in terms of

[1:24:04] providing consent for their

[1:24:06] personally identifiable

[1:24:08] information and to be They've

[1:24:09] they provide that can send it

[1:24:11] is not by any means required

[1:24:11] as part of service delivery

[1:24:14] and that complies with the

[1:24:15] ball. But expectations, which

[1:24:16] is that you give individuals

[1:24:18] the ability to consent or not

[1:24:18] and don't make service is

[1:24:23] contingent on that. So those

[1:24:23] protections are in place.

[1:24:31] Okay. Great. Thank Calling in

[1:24:31] the Navy decided to speak on

[1:24:33] item number 4 in a particular

[1:24:34] order. You can come up to the

[1:24:36] podium state. Your name for

[1:24:37] the record. Muzzy Indigo Jesse

[1:24:38] Rose more outside Ala and

[1:24:43] Blair Beekman. Hi, Jessi rose.

[1:24:45] More on the vp provided a well

[1:24:46] written report compared to

[1:24:48] opd. He did not provide a well

[1:24:49] written report. We got one

[1:24:50] minute to speak on this item

[1:24:51] where per item 8. We also got

[1:24:54] one minute to speak on this

[1:24:55] garbage. As I wrote a Brown

[1:24:57] mentioned just that nonsense

[1:24:58] that we had only one minute to

[1:25:03] speak on this city council. 3

[1:25:05] of the members of this body, 7

[1:25:06] members of the city Council it

[1:25:08] south. Look at opd, anything

[1:25:09] it wants and its austerity and

[1:25:11] means testing for everything

[1:25:13] else. Wang as Councilmember

[1:25:14] one, you're pertain to care

[1:25:15] about data privacy when it

[1:25:17] comes to take the vp. Why do

[1:25:19] you issue that scene care

[1:25:21] about privacy to flock, which

[1:25:23] so many people came to speak

[1:25:25] which is very clearly not

[1:25:25] popular with your

[1:25:26] constituents. And with

[1:25:29] everybody in Oakland we have a

[1:25:30] city council that serves

[1:25:32] Piedmont landlords in the o p

[1:25:36] o a we should be finding a

[1:25:37] violence prevention and

[1:25:40] safety. And you know, we need

[1:25:41] a city council that doesn't do

[1:25:48] austerity. So there's some

[1:25:51] clarity. It needs to be

[1:25:53] explain. The report says that

[1:25:54] you have participant record.

[1:25:59] It's. 2300. Program

[1:26:01] enrollment. 2500. What's the

[1:26:04] difference between the 2? When

[1:26:05] you look, thank you for the

[1:26:06] numbers of what you provided

[1:26:10] services employment. 37.

[1:26:13] Family and victim support 17.

[1:26:14] And I'm not gonna be able to

[1:26:16] go through all the numbers.

[1:26:17] What I didn't see in the

[1:26:20] report. And you got

[1:26:21] distinguish between services

[1:26:24] and referral. Referral means

[1:26:28] you identify the Service mean

[1:26:29] you actually got something in

[1:26:34] terms of in need. But you

[1:26:35] didn't identify anything that

[1:26:37] accommodates trauma recovery.

[1:26:40] Mental health care. Anger

[1:26:45] management, drug treatment.

[1:26:46] And those areas that need to

[1:26:46] be addressed. When you're

[1:26:47] talking about some of the

[1:26:58] issues that thank you for your

[1:26:59] comments, which into Zoom user

[1:26:59] Blair. You can unmute yourself

[1:27:01] and begin your comment. I

[1:27:05] thank you big men. This is

[1:27:06] another item that can serve a

[1:27:08] cause, a person's wearing

[1:27:11] council PRESIDENT Brings work

[1:27:13] I mean, National Avenue.

[1:27:17] Boulevard really well. It was

[1:27:18] nice to hear. It was nice to

[1:27:20] hear that this is really based

[1:27:24] t v p Postal Service And not

[1:27:24] so much law enforcement wasn't

[1:27:26] too much mentioned. And that

[1:27:29] was really helpful. It's up 8.

[1:27:31] That's a resource play. You

[1:27:35] know, the meetings we had on

[1:27:35] the International Boulevard,

[1:27:39] which is a few weeks ago The

[1:27:42] people there, women there,

[1:27:43] they need resources. That's

[1:27:44] what was being fed by the

[1:27:47] public. And it seems an item

[1:27:48] that helps provide those

[1:27:51] concepts, which is just dumb.

[1:27:52] It's just the way to work or

[1:27:53] system how we're going

[1:27:57] understand this best. So. Is

[1:27:58] nice to hear this item and

[1:27:59] what its intentions can be.

[1:28:00] Could look, we can live up to

[1:28:03] his potential. Thank you.

[1:31:32] the training hero. There were

[1:31:33] 5 submissions of 2 were passed

[1:31:39] process and of the 2 that pass

[1:31:39] only one vendor, right.

[1:31:40] Research group met all the

[1:31:45] were listed in the Rfq.

[1:31:48] Research group has over a

[1:31:56] departments within the city,

[1:31:57] research capacity really

[1:31:58] designed for that's owned by

[1:31:59] women of color. And based

[1:32:01] right here in Oakland. And

[1:32:04] some examples of work they've

[1:32:04] with the vp, formerly of Unite

[1:32:07] in the past. Is they actually

[1:32:10] where the organization that

[1:32:11] recommended in helped carry

[1:32:14] the killings and act like

[1:32:15] coaching fellowship, which is

[1:32:16] the internationally recognized

[1:32:45] a lot of who with, Oakley to

[1:32:47] cv eco system trusted by has

[1:32:48] let it rest of the

[1:32:48] organizations that we partner

[1:32:53] with. Thank you to have any

[1:32:58] questions. I'll start off with

[1:32:58] a comment. I just want to

[1:33:01] commend you for your work on

[1:33:02] this. I think this is exactly

[1:33:04] the work that ensures that

[1:33:06] Oakland continues to be on the

[1:33:08] front line of community

[1:33:09] violence approaches, their

[1:33:10] interruption approaches. So so

[1:33:13] thank you. Council member

[1:33:21] Brown. Excellent. Thank you so

[1:33:22] much that report. Only have

[1:33:23] one question. I'm looking at

[1:33:28] the funding table noticing

[1:33:29] item the half a million is

[1:33:31] coming from the general fund

[1:33:32] and then it's project

[1:33:36] re-imagining public safety. I

[1:33:39] so question is, was something

[1:33:42] that was budgeted in the in

[1:33:43] the budgeted or is this an

[1:33:46] additional allocation? This is

[1:33:47] in the budget. We tried to get

[1:33:50] the rfq out before for the

[1:33:53] current fiscal year started.

[1:33:54] Unfortunately, there are a lot

[1:33:58] of there are holdups. We were

[1:34:00] able to carry forward that

[1:34:02] money. And so it is within our

[1:34:03] budget. Ok, perfect. Thank you

[1:34:05] for the clarity. I'm not sure

[1:34:06] if there's a motion on the

[1:34:16] floor, but second So yes,

[1:34:17] chair Brent. Yes, my question.

[1:34:26] So job. Lady. Sure I made a

[1:34:27] motion and council member

[1:34:29] Brown made a second. Let's

[1:34:30] proceed. Calling him the

[1:34:32] names. Ascended to speak on

[1:34:33] item 5, Jesse Rose Morris not

[1:34:41] available in Blair Beekman.

[1:34:42] Hi, Jess. Are just like to

[1:34:45] point out that I'm like the

[1:34:46] opd. The Department of

[1:34:47] Violence Prevention in this

[1:34:49] case actually did an rfp rfq

[1:34:51] and didn't ask you all to skip

[1:34:52] all of it so that they can

[1:34:54] have their preferred vendor

[1:34:55] for for this thing. And we

[1:34:57] know that in the future

[1:34:57] they're going to right now.

[1:34:58] Our cue that's geared

[1:34:59] specifically. So that only

[1:35:02] flaw could get it. We had a

[1:35:02] nice presentation from someone

[1:35:06] he did a great job, whereas

[1:35:08] with the flock item, I'm not

[1:35:10] mistaken. That was done by

[1:35:12] homered Heroes, who was

[1:35:12] involved in an

[1:35:13] officer-involved shooting

[1:35:18] against someone he was. Killed

[1:35:20] and he wanted to get lethal

[1:35:21] and that cost the city tens of

[1:35:22] millions of the 10 million

[1:35:24] dollars. I believe in a

[1:35:25] lawsuit. So it's interesting

[1:35:28] that you're having that person

[1:35:28] speak on clock. I'm glad to

[1:35:30] see department about

[1:35:32] prevention doing a great

[1:35:33] thing. We should have less

[1:35:34] officer-involved shootings. We

[1:35:35] should have less flock and

[1:35:37] more violence prevention. How

[1:35:38] about that from my city

[1:35:47] council with that, you know.

[1:35:51] So. You see these a woman of

[1:35:58] color Everybody got Cup. Some

[1:35:59] have local element in other

[1:36:03] months. But this ability to So

[1:36:06] why people feel like Pacific

[1:36:08] They and the group with the

[1:36:10] melanin grew. They just a

[1:36:11] blessing mellow everybody

[1:36:14] Start with that people. Women

[1:36:18] to whatever and just say women

[1:36:19] and I got a problem with this

[1:36:20] issue with women. With this

[1:36:20] Department of Violence

[1:36:22] Prevention. I don't see no

[1:36:28] men. And how does group.

[1:36:30] That's women and most of the

[1:36:31] people you've got to deal

[1:36:36] African-American man. And so

[1:36:37] these women going to deal with

[1:36:39] in they say in their report

[1:36:40] when you look at them online

[1:36:43] at they in. Ok, but we got a

[1:36:44] lot going on with this

[1:36:48] department with women. Being

[1:36:49] in most of the roles of

[1:37:00] leadership. Thank you for your

[1:37:01] comments. Witching to Zoom

[1:37:02] user Blair, you can unmute

[1:37:07] yourself. All there. Big man.

[1:37:07] Hopefully women in leadership

[1:37:11] isn't so much of a problem.

[1:37:15] I'm hoping with this item that

[1:37:18] you it is really stepping up

[1:37:19] their rage parts that they

[1:37:20] can. And guess what? People

[1:37:20] are dying from it again. So

[1:37:23] there's a lot of outrage. I

[1:37:26] think we can be prepared in

[1:37:28] Oakland and I'm hopeful in

[1:37:30] what council person, Brown

[1:37:33] when have been studying in

[1:37:36] data collection, right, we can

[1:37:37] be ready. I think we can be

[1:37:38] ready with with this sort work

[1:37:41] and effort of this item. We

[1:37:42] have a bunch of programs like

[1:37:46] this that I simply I think

[1:37:47] Create something pretty

[1:37:49] important. Is respected at the

[1:37:49] federal level. And we have to

[1:37:52] continue to share what we know

[1:37:54] and what we want to practice

[1:37:55] is how to address our issues

[1:37:57] the community. This can keep

[1:37:58] it the way. So keep up the

[1:38:00] good efforts of this type of

[1:38:01] item, really a composite. A

[1:38:02] lot of things on a lot of

[1:38:05] levels. Thanks for that. Thank

[1:38:07] you for your comments. Sure.

[1:38:07] That includes all speakers and

[1:38:08] we do have a motion made by

[1:38:11] Chair Wang second by council

[1:38:12] member Brown to put the

[1:38:13] recommendations of staff and

[1:38:14] toward this item to the JULY

[1:38:15] 20 per City Council agenda on

[1:38:16] consent on row Councilmembers.

[1:38:21] Brown. I buy I use eye and

[1:38:23] chair along. I think you

[1:38:23] motion passes will pour. I

[1:38:24] support this item to the JULY

[1:38:27] 20 for City Council agenda on

[1:38:27] consent. Reading in item

[1:38:33] number 6. Adopt sorry, adopt a

[1:38:34] resolution authorizing the

[1:38:35] city administrator to apply

[1:38:35] for except inappropriate.

[1:38:49] fiscal year 2025 Grand Award

[1:38:51] period of OCTOBER. First 2025

[1:38:55] through SEPTEMBER, 30th 2020

[1:38:57] to support the department like

[1:38:57] training equipment,

[1:38:58] technology, and operational

[1:38:59] enhancements. And we have 4

[1:39:03] speakers on this item. Okay,

[1:39:04] great. Please take it away.

[1:39:08] Yes. Good evening. Chair and

[1:39:09] members of the committee,

[1:39:10] Russian warship, the Fiscal

[1:39:11] division manager for the

[1:39:12] Oakland Police Department.

[1:39:18] Before you is to Justice

[1:39:19] assistant grant for 2025. With

[1:39:20] the total allocation of

[1:39:24] 324,000 $324. The Jack Ryan is

[1:39:24] a fund fund a program

[1:39:28] administered. Partnership the

[1:39:29] county which applies for the

[1:39:31] grant on behalf of the

[1:39:31] department and the funding

[1:39:33] allocations are based on the

[1:39:35] population. Opd has been the

[1:39:36] recipient of this award

[1:39:36] approved by council since

[1:39:41] 2005. Given the department's

[1:39:42] 7.8 million decrease in

[1:39:45] operation and maintenance as

[1:39:46] outlined in the report, the

[1:39:46] department proposed the

[1:39:49] following. 25,000 Floyd

[1:39:50] training professional

[1:39:55] development. Which promote

[1:39:56] ongoing training. That's not

[1:40:00] related to polls. Which would

[1:40:02] support training such as

[1:40:03] women's leaders and law

[1:40:07] enforcement mash. Asian peace

[1:40:11] officers. Secondly, there is

[1:40:14] $66,891 and $0.56 That's

[1:40:15] allocated to technology. A

[1:40:16] great supporting replacements

[1:40:18] of aging computers that cannot

[1:40:20] support Windows 11. Along with

[1:40:24] a bit of software. It hardware

[1:40:26] and other technology. Lastly,

[1:40:30] there's $2000. I mean, 200

[1:40:32] 1000 dollars allocated for the

[1:40:36] helicopter marine maintenance,

[1:40:37] which helps support the

[1:40:39] contracts. One of the contract

[1:40:41] is Ashley being reported on

[1:40:43] tonight. And so this helps

[1:40:44] with a vital services for the

[1:40:48] department. These funds apd to

[1:40:49] support operations without

[1:40:51] impacting the city's general

[1:40:52] fund. This concludes my

[1:40:57] presentation. All right. Thank

[1:40:58] you. And I do appreciate since

[1:41:01] one of my questions to opd in

[1:41:01] advance with this was

[1:41:03] providing more specificity on

[1:41:05] those cash, the glories of of

[1:41:06] funding. Any questions for my

[1:41:11] colleagues. Let's go to the

[1:41:13] public comment calling in the

[1:41:14] needs of Senate to speak on

[1:41:16] this item airs Dedan Jesse

[1:41:17] Rose more Asadullah fallen

[1:41:27] Blair Beekman. A high just

[1:41:28] euros you know you can see of

[1:41:32] he's just for the public the

[1:41:33] first paragraph of Page 5 of

[1:41:34] this report and its pretty

[1:41:35] sloppy. There's even a

[1:41:36] grammatical error on the last

[1:41:39] sentence. This is, of course,

[1:41:40] the race inequity part of the

[1:41:41] report and helicopters have a

[1:41:48] history of being using giving

[1:41:48] its pollution in a

[1:41:49] predominantly black

[1:41:51] neighborhood, low-income and

[1:41:52] black neighborhoods. This is

[1:41:53] completely not looked at by

[1:41:55] the opd, whereas you now

[1:41:58] department of violate. I've

[1:41:59] violence prevention actually

[1:42:02] filled out the I racing equity

[1:42:03] portion of this and actually

[1:42:06] care, too. You know, care

[1:42:07] about that part and also care

[1:42:08] about our privacy, which opd

[1:42:12] obviously does not. You know,

[1:42:13] it's be interested in what

[1:42:14] approvals. There are

[1:42:17] helicopters because you just

[1:42:19] try to match opd Zi, Zip lock

[1:42:21] match up. Use policy of flock

[1:42:22] to these use rather than the

[1:42:23] other way around. So what's

[1:42:30] happening here? Before

[1:42:30] beginning of a point of

[1:42:35] inquiry, if that's okay, there

[1:42:39] is mentioned in this report,

[1:42:41] use for the maintenance of the

[1:42:41] helicopter, but that is also

[1:42:42] another agenda item agenda

[1:42:45] item number 7. So I do believe

[1:42:48] there might be some overlap

[1:42:49] with that. And also we don't

[1:42:52] need to provide more funding

[1:42:55] for equipment for the Oakland

[1:42:56] Police Department. They are

[1:42:57] vastly over funded because

[1:42:59] right now by the Oakland

[1:42:59] Police Department admission

[1:43:03] they are understaffed. We do

[1:43:03] not need give them more money

[1:43:04] for equipment that they do not

[1:43:08] eat and will not use and in

[1:43:11] addition, these resources are

[1:43:14] actually not something that

[1:43:14] will actually help prevent

[1:43:16] crime than about a sentencing

[1:43:17] commission really sent a page

[1:43:19] document in 2022. That wants 3

[1:43:19] methods of increasing public

[1:43:22] safety and crime prevention

[1:43:24] rates of up to 51% in multiple

[1:43:27] different categories and none

[1:43:27] of them have to do with

[1:43:35] increasing equipment budget. I

[1:43:38] continue to ask you when any

[1:43:42] grant comes before you look at

[1:43:44] the of the ways that grant can

[1:43:45] be used. So this particular

[1:43:48] grant can be used crime

[1:43:53] prevention and education drug

[1:43:53] treatment, crime victims

[1:43:55] assistance with assistance,

[1:43:59] mental health programs,

[1:44:02] behavior programs, veterans

[1:44:03] Court and Rhis protection

[1:44:05] programs. That money can be

[1:44:10] used for all of that. So we we

[1:44:11] are going to be using it for

[1:44:13] training police go Quitman

[1:44:14] technology. What is that? The

[1:44:19] high a priority. You have a

[1:44:19] responsibility anytime you see

[1:44:23] anything on the agenda. If

[1:44:24] there's options to look at the

[1:44:26] options and aches. Why didn't

[1:44:30] you consider this? Crime

[1:44:30] whatever drug treatment,

[1:44:37] mental health. Switching to

[1:44:37] Zoom user Blair, you yourself

[1:44:39] begin your comments. All

[1:44:46] right. Thank I think

[1:44:47] traditionally cac funding has

[1:44:50] been used for more and severe

[1:44:51] law enforcement tech needs

[1:44:54] helicopters and things like

[1:44:57] that. Nice to hear the items

[1:45:03] so Paulo think thinking how

[1:45:09] can be considered and in more

[1:45:12] under terms the idea it being

[1:45:15] used for office and not

[1:45:16] dipping into the general fund.

[1:45:17] Really nice to hear things

[1:45:18] like that. So thank you. At

[1:45:20] least in those terms. Work on

[1:45:27] the Thank you. Thank you for

[1:45:27] your comments chair. That

[1:45:29] speakers on this item. Thank

[1:45:34] you. Councilmember Brown. All

[1:45:36] right. Thank you so much for

[1:45:37] that I know that the

[1:45:38] application was a joint

[1:45:40] application with Alameda

[1:45:42] County. It is interesting to

[1:45:44] note that Oakland received the

[1:45:45] second largest amount right of

[1:45:49] that allocation. I do think

[1:45:50] that the comment from the

[1:45:52] public speaker around other

[1:45:53] eligible uses would be

[1:45:55] something that maybe consider

[1:45:57] and we get to the helicopter

[1:45:58] item. I know we're not there

[1:46:02] yet, but I do recall in recent

[1:46:03] conversations that that has

[1:46:06] ongoing expense in maybe we

[1:46:11] need to invest in. I think

[1:46:12] I've heard just issues with

[1:46:13] the helicopter we can talk

[1:46:15] more about but I would be

[1:46:17] interested in some of the

[1:46:19] other eligible uses for these

[1:46:21] funds because that list that

[1:46:23] the public speaker and kind of

[1:46:26] named out was very intriguing.

[1:46:27] And we know the all those

[1:46:30] things are services that our

[1:46:31] community could be it could be

[1:46:33] in need But all in all, thank

[1:46:35] you for bringing the item in

[1:46:37] weeks at the we accept free

[1:46:38] money, right? We set the muggy

[1:46:38] So I'm happy to move the item

[1:46:43] along. Councilmember Fife.

[1:46:44] Thank you. Threw the chair.

[1:46:47] I'm also interested in how

[1:46:48] were determining the breakdown

[1:46:54] between marine and aviation

[1:46:55] equipment. And the reason I'm

[1:46:56] asking is because it feels

[1:46:59] like I don't know, the House

[1:47:00] of Dragons came through and

[1:47:01] burned up all the ships in the

[1:47:05] estuary and there's all these

[1:47:06] abandoned boats and they are

[1:47:07] there for a very, very long

[1:47:10] time. And I'm not sure if it's

[1:47:12] staff and that's the issue why

[1:47:14] can't boats be cleared out

[1:47:15] because of then it leads

[1:47:17] environmental pollution in the

[1:47:18] water and so I'd like to

[1:47:21] understand how. Those funds

[1:47:27] are being I guess, divvied up

[1:47:29] between those 2, those 2 areas

[1:47:30] and I would agree I brought an

[1:47:33] item 3 years ago around the

[1:47:34] fixed wing aircraft that is

[1:47:36] better and well, it's debate

[1:47:38] debated. The environmental

[1:47:40] impacts, but definitely the

[1:47:41] sound kuz get. Birds are

[1:47:45] allowed in And we got to do

[1:47:47] better. But and we're spending

[1:47:50] like so much money on

[1:47:51] maintaining equipment that is

[1:47:53] just past its useful life. I

[1:47:58] wouldn't I would like to see.

[1:47:59] Funds going to support

[1:48:03] clearing our waterways and you

[1:48:04] know, using. But anyway, the

[1:48:05] point is how are giving up

[1:48:08] those grant funds? So through

[1:48:13] the Actually, there was just a

[1:48:14] contract and it will land

[1:48:17] Marine for 1.4 million dollars

[1:48:18] that would do the vessel

[1:48:20] removals for the Marine. This

[1:48:23] is actually to just work on

[1:48:24] the Bowden. So there's

[1:48:25] $100,000 allocated for that

[1:48:27] for maintenance for that man.

[1:48:29] The other 100,000 is for the

[1:48:31] helicopter for what? The

[1:48:31] $100,000 for a helicopter.

[1:48:35] That's a drop in the bucket

[1:48:38] wire. So total contract is

[1:48:38] $850,000. So we're going to

[1:48:43] use some general purpose funds

[1:48:43] and then we have a new subject

[1:48:44] funds as well. Our grant

[1:48:50] funds. 2 for the helicopter

[1:48:51] and what will will get to the

[1:48:52] helicopter questions on the

[1:48:53] next Thank you. You're

[1:48:57] welcome. I'll add to the

[1:48:58] helicopter question. So I

[1:49:00] think in the re-imagining

[1:49:02] public for it was established

[1:49:06] helicopter in terms of regular

[1:49:07] operational costs about 4

[1:49:08] times the amount of the fixed

[1:49:12] wing aircraft. Is the

[1:49:13] department's starting to

[1:49:15] explore how to move towards

[1:49:19] the fixed wing aircraft model.

[1:49:20] Good Evening. Council member

[1:49:22] Captain William, the local

[1:49:24] police department. Indeed, we

[1:49:26] are. We've actually proposed

[1:49:27] to the city Council on several

[1:49:29] occasions, a very detailed and

[1:49:32] robust document of the fixed

[1:49:32] wing aircraft to its expected

[1:49:35] life expectancy as well as

[1:49:36] maintenance costs and council

[1:49:36] member of 5 correct. That is

[1:49:42] 8. Significant reduction in

[1:49:43] operating costs over the long

[1:49:45] term for that aircraft. It

[1:49:46] result in substantial savings

[1:49:46] long term versus a rotor

[1:49:49] aircraft. And so what is

[1:49:53] holdup? At the time the

[1:49:55] discussion was we talk to the

[1:49:59] portion financing the

[1:50:00] aircraft. Aside from that, the

[1:50:03] proposal was complete. Okay.

[1:50:04] Let's talk about this more in

[1:50:06] the next item. Do I have a

[1:50:11] second otherwise. I'll second

[1:50:12] I want to also explore, as

[1:50:15] I've said now for 6 years,

[1:50:17] alternative uses, particularly

[1:50:19] if there's any way that we can

[1:50:20] investigate rape kits or any

[1:50:25] way we can look into

[1:50:27] supporting more

[1:50:29] investigations. I'm I'm not

[1:50:29] sure if that's possible with

[1:50:30] these funds perhaps you can

[1:50:33] answer for a second to start

[1:50:34] clearing some of these cold

[1:50:39] cases, particularly around you

[1:50:40] know, some of the rape kits

[1:50:43] that have not the process pd.

[1:50:43] I would like to see that if

[1:50:47] possible for additional uses.

[1:50:51] We could use funds for we did

[1:50:52] in the last grant that that

[1:50:54] was in DECEMBER. We allocated

[1:50:55] funds for the not. So we cover

[1:50:56] that in the last great.

[1:51:00] Covered it like like we

[1:51:02] allocated. I'm gonna the crime

[1:51:05] lab was awarded 200 k for

[1:51:05] funds for just different

[1:51:08] things in the crime. Yeah, I

[1:51:10] would continuation of that

[1:51:12] type of processing of grant

[1:51:17] funds and for a second. Thank

[1:51:20] you. We have a motion made by

[1:51:21] council member Brown seconded

[1:51:21] by Councilmember fight to

[1:51:22] approve the recommendation of

[1:51:23] staff and support this item to

[1:51:26] the JULY 20 for City Council

[1:51:30] agenda on Councilmembers.

[1:51:32] Brown. I buy I use to eye and

[1:51:34] chair I thank you. Motion

[1:51:35] passes with more ice to port

[1:51:38] this item to the JULY 20 for

[1:51:39] City Council agenda on

[1:51:40] consent. Reading in item

[1:51:45] number 7. Adopt a resolution

[1:51:46] authorizing the city

[1:51:47] administrator to enter into

[1:51:47] professional services

[1:51:49] agreement with Red Oak wraps

[1:51:52] Rotorcraft Support to provide

[1:51:53] helicopter maintenance

[1:51:54] services to the Oakland Police

[1:51:57] Department for the period of

[1:52:00] JULY. First 2026 to 6/30/2028

[1:52:02] in an amount not to exceed

[1:52:03] 1 million, 700,000 dollars

[1:52:04] with an option to extend the

[1:52:06] agreement for 2 additional

[1:52:09] years to JUNE. 30th 2030, for

[1:52:12] total contract not to exceed

[1:52:13] 3 million, 400,000 dollars and

[1:52:14] waving to local and small

[1:52:17] local business enterprise

[1:52:18] program requirements. And

[1:52:18] there are 4 speakers on this

[1:52:23] item. Okay. Great. You have a

[1:52:26] few minutes. I know we are

[1:52:27] close to 08:00pm. So would be

[1:52:30] great to keep its the same.

[1:52:31] Thank John. Better again of

[1:52:32] the most prominent coaches to

[1:52:36] Pfizer. Been supervisor for 17

[1:52:36] years been fined helicopters

[1:52:40] for 17 years. Here today for

[1:52:42] the maintenance contract for

[1:52:43] the helicopters. Helicopters

[1:52:47] are. Maintenance intensive.

[1:52:49] And specialized maintenance.

[1:52:51] We put out an rfq. We're

[1:52:56] asking for the same $850,000.

[1:52:57] The same budget that we've had

[1:52:59] for the last 6 years with no

[1:53:03] increase, although. Labor

[1:53:04] costs and parked cars have

[1:53:05] increased, we have not

[1:53:07] increased our budget. It's

[1:53:08] just meant reduced flight

[1:53:14] time. The two-year extension

[1:53:15] is not automatic. Will have to

[1:53:18] come back before you to ask

[1:53:19] too, do the two-year

[1:53:24] extension. It took city staff

[1:53:26] 8 months to get this to you.

[1:53:27] So having that extention in

[1:53:29] place will eliminate that. So

[1:53:32] that's very helpful. Also, it

[1:53:36] does lock in the manufacturer

[1:53:37] to that labor rates for 4

[1:53:44] years. Can save us money. So

[1:53:49] your for country. I'm not

[1:53:51] seeing any that Councilmember

[1:53:55] Fife go ahead. I just wanted

[1:53:57] to state because I've heard

[1:53:58] now this presentation a few

[1:53:59] times since I've been on

[1:54:01] council. I think it's

[1:54:03] imperative that this body

[1:54:05] prioritized a fixed wing

[1:54:09] aircraft fiscal purposes. But

[1:54:10] as well as the environmental

[1:54:11] impact that has on communities

[1:54:15] that frequent, we have high

[1:54:19] speed chases which I r

[1:54:20] extremely dangerous and highly

[1:54:21] restricted throughout the

[1:54:23] state of California as being

[1:54:26] potentially deadly and how a

[1:54:28] fixed wing aircraft could

[1:54:30] serve. Those uses. That would

[1:54:36] take patrol cars out of out of

[1:54:39] use when needing to engage a

[1:54:41] suspect versus, you know,

[1:54:42] potentially causing harm. That

[1:54:46] comes from high-speed chases.

[1:54:47] And since we're on the topic

[1:54:47] of high-speed chases, I want

[1:54:48] to say that the chase policy

[1:54:51] was not a city council policy.

[1:54:53] That was something that was

[1:54:55] stated repeatedly over and

[1:54:56] over again. It is a policy

[1:55:00] that is a police department

[1:55:02] policy. But that said, I think

[1:55:05] it's it's important that we

[1:55:06] prioritizing the next biennial

[1:55:11] budget. A fixed wing aircraft

[1:55:15] to save money to save lives.

[1:55:17] And 2 address this outpouring

[1:55:20] of funds that are consistently

[1:55:21] occurring from trying to

[1:55:22] maintain a piece of equipment

[1:55:25] that is clearly outdated until

[1:55:30] we figure out what to do about

[1:55:31] incidents that do require

[1:55:35] pursuit. To eliminate. All

[1:55:36] needs a pursuit. We're going

[1:55:39] to have some type of need for

[1:55:42] equipment. And I think it.

[1:55:44] We've been presented with the

[1:55:45] information time and time

[1:55:48] again. And just the fiscal

[1:55:49] savings alone, I think are

[1:55:51] important for us to consider

[1:55:52] with our fiduciary

[1:55:53] responsibility to this body.

[1:56:01] To the city that I will move

[1:56:02] this item forward, but I just

[1:56:05] want to, again, just point out

[1:56:06] that we are hemorrhaging money

[1:56:09] from trying to maintain and

[1:56:12] old piece of equipment that we

[1:56:16] still have used for. And it

[1:56:18] was, you Councilmember Houston

[1:56:18] and I were talking about it

[1:56:19] and he was like, you know,

[1:56:20] that's what drones are for. I

[1:56:21] do want to point out that in

[1:56:22] inclement weather conditions,

[1:56:25] drones are not useful. We also

[1:56:27] have the issue of privacy when

[1:56:28] it comes to drones. I know it

[1:56:29] would go through the Privacy

[1:56:30] Commission or what have you.

[1:56:33] But I just we've been

[1:56:36] presented enough times that

[1:56:38] this is a fixed wing aircraft

[1:56:41] would be a better use of

[1:56:42] resources for the city. And I

[1:56:44] just want to state that for

[1:56:45] the record. And the

[1:56:46] information is all there. You

[1:56:48] can go to previous council

[1:56:51] meetings previous in full

[1:56:52] reports, Joe De Vries and I

[1:56:54] worked on it a couple 3 years

[1:56:56] ago. And so the information is

[1:56:56] all there. We just need to

[1:56:57] make it happen and we need to

[1:57:00] prioritize it. Councilmember

[1:57:08] Houston. Do and chair. He it.

[1:57:10] So so I'm just So the public

[1:57:13] can hear it is. The Holocaust,

[1:57:16] a helicopter or what are they

[1:57:19] for? What are we use them for?

[1:57:19] There's many things or use

[1:57:22] them for. Primarily. We see

[1:57:23] them as a patrol car in the

[1:57:27] sky. Whatever dispatch Census

[1:57:30] 2 will go to and cover. So you

[1:57:31] pick the call, we can assist

[1:57:37] on it. So so we have drones

[1:57:39] that they say are outdated.

[1:57:39] You can use that money for the

[1:57:40] drones. I mean, should be able

[1:57:44] to have drones that can fly.

[1:57:45] And bad weather technology. We

[1:57:46] can go to the moon. Come back,

[1:57:48] you know, do all this right

[1:57:49] along with the flock cameras,

[1:57:50] can't they? I mean, if we got

[1:57:54] flock and he's following. To

[1:57:55] the city where we need to

[1:57:56] helicopters for a fact.

[1:57:56] Technology is he's been

[1:58:01] upgraded. Bunch of things

[1:58:02] there. I'm happy to talk about

[1:58:08] your points, too. Drones and

[1:58:08] helicopters are 2 items in

[1:58:13] your tool box. Jones can't do.

[1:58:13] A helicopters can do to help

[1:58:14] countries can't do it. Drones

[1:58:16] can do. So. For instance,

[1:58:18] Jones are limited on the

[1:58:19] distance. They can travel like

[1:58:23] they can stay in the air.

[1:58:24] Helicopter can stay out for an

[1:58:25] extended period of time and

[1:58:29] go. A farther distance. So

[1:58:31] Jones can also get you. Right

[1:58:35] close. Right? They can come.

[1:58:38] You know, altitude right down

[1:58:39] by the house or the yard or

[1:58:41] wherever the call is and

[1:58:42] obviously helicopter cats

[1:58:44] going to stay farther up. So

[1:58:48] they both have their own

[1:58:49] unique distinct uses and what

[1:58:50] they can be used for what they

[1:58:50] can't. They're not

[1:58:53] interchangeable. So so storms

[1:58:58] us. Sorry, Councilmember. I

[1:59:01] think one of the other

[1:59:02] important mitigating factors

[1:59:03] that wrong technologies

[1:59:05] because it is today, sir. It

[1:59:05] simply cannot maintain any

[1:59:07] type of vehicle pursuits that

[1:59:08] at, you know, speeds over 25

[1:59:11] miles an hour. And as

[1:59:12] councilmember fight that had

[1:59:15] mentioned, just who they are

[1:59:15] susceptible to inclement

[1:59:18] weather and those limitations.

[1:59:19] The helicopter or a fixed wing

[1:59:21] aircraft would not be limited

[1:59:23] by those. So at this point,

[1:59:24] I'd technology wise drones are

[1:59:27] certainly. They're up and

[1:59:28] coming very quickly in terms

[1:59:29] of technology increases of

[1:59:30] usage and speed of things of

[1:59:31] that nature. But they're not

[1:59:32] there yet and they won't be

[1:59:34] there for the foreseeable

[1:59:37] future. The need for a

[1:59:39] aircraft would optional. For

[1:59:39] replacement. So last question

[1:59:43] to chair, have we have we use

[1:59:45] the helicopters for like

[1:59:46] emergency saving someone's

[1:59:47] life. Now you see it tv and

[1:59:48] they say people often mouth.

[1:59:52] That's a great question. The

[1:59:53] helicopters, not a simple uses

[1:59:54] item for local police

[1:59:55] department And a great example

[1:59:59] was just recently started than

[2:00:00] a week and was fined. We had a

[2:00:02] young lady. She felt she was

[2:00:02] on a hike in the hills. She

[2:00:04] and fell into ditch. She

[2:00:06] requested assistance and

[2:00:08] thanks to his expertise as

[2:00:09] well as coordination with the

[2:00:12] patrol division that the heir

[2:00:12] to actually found her in in

[2:00:14] the ditch with fallen directed

[2:00:17] units and actually assisted

[2:00:22] her back to safety. So to the

[2:00:23] chair, you have to share those

[2:00:24] stories. It's ironic

[2:00:24] councilmember that the p I o

[2:00:27] is actually putting that story

[2:00:28] hopefully tomorrow. So so

[2:00:29] those things that people need

[2:00:30] to hear those as real-life

[2:00:34] stories like, wow, if just

[2:00:35] save somebodys life mifa they

[2:00:37] cut because it used to those

[2:00:39] stories need to be heard. So

[2:00:42] this is why we need

[2:00:45] helicopter. All right, ok?

[2:00:47] Council member Brown. All

[2:00:50] right. Well, I don't I'm not

[2:00:54] going tried put a downer on

[2:00:54] this, but gonna up live some

[2:00:58] some some research that we

[2:00:59] were able to find on this item

[2:01:00] and kind of as it was already

[2:01:02] stated. Sounds like we need to

[2:01:03] move towards this investment

[2:01:06] in the an alternative. But I

[2:01:07] just wanted to flag for

[2:01:10] everyone's awareness that this

[2:01:13] particular group rsi in 2000,

[2:01:16] maybe it's on your radar. They

[2:01:18] actually there was a

[2:01:19] 50 million dollar wrongful

[2:01:20] death lawsuit about from a

[2:01:22] fatal crash that happened in

[2:01:27] the Hills fire Fresno. And it

[2:01:30] had to do with like

[2:01:30] maintenance issues around,

[2:01:32] like hydraulic issues before

[2:01:36] the crash. And so in

[2:01:36] investigating that they

[2:01:37] actually found that it was, in

[2:01:38] fact, like a wrongful death

[2:01:40] due to like some maintenance

[2:01:42] complications. So just wanted

[2:01:44] to put that on the radar I

[2:01:45] know that we continue to

[2:01:48] invest time and time and

[2:01:51] keeping this helicopter

[2:01:52] operational. But I do think

[2:01:53] that we MAY be at a point

[2:01:54] where we want to invest in

[2:01:59] something that would be better

[2:02:06] long term I just I just want

[2:02:07] to say it I'm not sure that

[2:02:09] that case was on your radar

[2:02:13] happened in 2000. The air unit

[2:02:17] has a very strict policy in

[2:02:20] terms of maintenance and

[2:02:20] operational of modality

[2:02:21] everyday started being a week

[2:02:22] his team, the Golden Speck

[2:02:22] helicopter, Dupree

[2:02:25] inspections, post inspections,

[2:02:28] which again to the fact that

[2:02:30] helicopter is not simply

[2:02:32] maintenance cost situation,

[2:02:33] but also labor, intense

[2:02:34] situation. But we do

[2:02:36] appreciate you bringing that

[2:02:37] they through decades of

[2:02:38] experience have actually

[2:02:40] learned and they have, in

[2:02:41] fact, caught maintenance

[2:02:41] challenges before they go up

[2:02:42] in the air. So we're very

[2:02:43] cognizant of that public

[2:02:47] safety. Great. Thank you.

[2:02:48] Colleagues Councilmember

[2:02:51] Houston. More question to

[2:02:53] chair. What years that

[2:02:56] helicopter. So 2 units the

[2:03:00] first one is 1990. Was what I

[2:03:01] was in middle school and the

[2:03:03] next one answer is 1993, ok,

[2:03:08] cool, cool, cool. So I have a

[2:03:09] question. What is the cost a

[2:03:11] new helicopter? Top of line,

[2:03:17] top of so the replacement cost

[2:03:18] of brand new helicopter, sir,

[2:03:18] would be 1 million dollars

[2:03:19] more than a fixed wing

[2:03:23] aircraft. 1 million dollars

[2:03:24] more. Correct. 6 million

[2:03:26] dollars or 6 Million? Correct?

[2:03:28] Okay. How much does it cost to

[2:03:29] maintain that helicopter per

[2:03:35] year? Goes to those $250,000.

[2:03:36] 850, okay. So we just and how

[2:03:40] long we've been doing this.

[2:03:45] Their over 37 All right. So

[2:03:49] great. I know what to do. And

[2:03:49] the for the fixed wing

[2:03:50] aircraft. What is the upfront

[2:03:53] cost versus the annual packs?

[2:03:57] 5 million for an airplane and

[2:03:59] we fully support lead relive

[2:04:03] airplane. Also. And, you know,

[2:04:03] what is the annual ongoing

[2:04:05] maintenance costs of the fixed

[2:04:09] wing aircraft? It'll be a 3rd.

[2:04:12] One-third, ok? So 850,000 3,

[2:04:14] correct? Correct. Calculation

[2:04:16] that we did is that the fixed

[2:04:17] wing aircraft dependent upon

[2:04:17] financing options should

[2:04:20] actually pay for itself in as

[2:04:22] little 15 years of that. But

[2:04:25] if you pay for cash would be

[2:04:26] significantly less the

[2:04:28] maintenance savings are are so

[2:04:29] significant that by the time

[2:04:31] to 37 years that we've paying

[2:04:32] for for a rotary aircraft, you

[2:04:37] could at 2 aircraft in service

[2:04:38] at the city of Oakland with a

[2:04:38] life expectancy of over 40

[2:04:43] years, each as opposed to 10.

[2:04:44] That's noteworthy. Just to

[2:04:45] play a little bit of devil's

[2:04:47] advocate. I support the idea,

[2:04:48] but I guess like it's hard for

[2:04:50] me understand for a fixed wing

[2:04:52] aircraft. Do we need an

[2:04:53] airplane like has earned

[2:04:54] airport like how does that

[2:04:55] work in terms of deployment?

[2:04:58] Does it? Because I imagine

[2:05:00] helicopter you know, lift off

[2:05:02] from a helipad, but an

[2:05:03] airplane requires more

[2:05:05] runways. So how does that

[2:05:07] work? Does it require more

[2:05:09] travel time then for opd in

[2:05:11] the case of an emergency

[2:05:13] situation. Our helicopters are

[2:05:14] currently makes to the local

[2:05:15] airport and they're playing

[2:05:17] also be based there. Okay,

[2:05:19] great. And then in the sun air

[2:05:20] that you described, which is

[2:05:22] rescuing woman from the hills,

[2:05:26] can a fixed wing aircraft

[2:05:27] because, again, I'm imagining

[2:05:29] this is just don't civilian

[2:05:31] where helicopter can stays

[2:05:34] static above the person. Can

[2:05:34] the fixed wing aircraft do

[2:05:36] something similar? Does it do?

[2:05:40] We require still helicopter

[2:05:40] equipment to do some sort

[2:05:42] rescue like that the airplane

[2:05:45] will fly and Orbitz and they

[2:05:47] will be able look and direct.

[2:05:51] Ground units to the victim.

[2:05:52] Okay. Know they will not be

[2:05:54] able to do the actual rescue

[2:05:54] rescue. Okay. But it sounds

[2:05:58] like ground units could have

[2:05:58] the capacity to do that.

[2:06:04] Correct, Okay. Go ahead.

[2:06:05] Councilmember. He got let's

[2:06:08] wrap it Last question. The

[2:06:09] mobility is different. I mean,

[2:06:11] if you in helicopter, you can

[2:06:12] just stop you come back up

[2:06:13] mobile in the aircraft. You

[2:06:13] got to go around and around

[2:06:18] and around. That's part of the

[2:06:18] noise aspect also. So the

[2:06:19] airplane is going to be

[2:06:20] significantly higher fly

[2:06:21] significantly higher than what

[2:06:23] the helicopter does. So you're

[2:06:26] not going to hear it. But the

[2:06:27] airplane is going to have a a

[2:06:28] significant camera on board

[2:06:30] and that's how the job will be

[2:06:30] performed is that the camera

[2:06:32] will look down and make the

[2:06:34] radio call ask questions. So

[2:06:37] who's going operate this,

[2:06:39] which big swing, put lot great

[2:06:41] day. Our pilots. How many

[2:06:50] pause? With a red one's is

[2:06:51] operating with a rather have a

[2:06:52] fixed. I have a brand new

[2:06:59] helicopter. I would say that

[2:06:59] week's travel working on this

[2:07:00] project with the council as

[2:07:04] well started in a week. And of

[2:07:05] course, the helicopter is one

[2:07:06] of those tools that is funded

[2:07:08] rifle case. Its you need to

[2:07:09] take specific skill set. So is

[2:07:10] actually in terms of just job

[2:07:13] satisfaction fun. The aircraft

[2:07:14] so advanced that a twin engine

[2:07:15] aircraft to the very low

[2:07:17] profile that it is so safe for

[2:07:23] pets with flies itself. You

[2:07:23] want to second that

[2:07:29] councilmember Houston. Moving

[2:07:31] speaking. Sorry, moving to

[2:07:33] public speakers calling him

[2:07:34] the name that up to

[2:07:37] speak on item number 7 errors

[2:07:38] done just few rows. My thought

[2:07:38] on the ball and Blair, big

[2:07:46] man. Jesse Rose. More upside,

[2:07:47] though pd just said they want

[2:07:48] these helicopters because

[2:07:51] they're fun to drive 1.7

[2:07:55] million for why it like, like

[2:07:56] I said to be in the meeting,

[2:07:57] we could be civilian icing. I

[2:07:57] have Pte. All right. I

[2:08:01] civilian. I seen desk jobs at

[2:08:03] opd. We could be looking into

[2:08:05] their overtime fraud and then

[2:08:05] we we could have the money

[2:08:06] that you're going back and

[2:08:09] forth about and debate about.

[2:08:12] Their staff report says Page

[2:08:13] 3, these helicopters will be

[2:08:14] used to surveil and intimidate

[2:08:16] protesters. It's right in So

[2:08:16] it's that they're going to do

[2:08:17] that with these helicopters

[2:08:19] just like they're doing with

[2:08:21] Flock Councilmember one, you

[2:08:21] want this mean and early but

[2:08:23] east not flocking on the the

[2:08:25] agenda. And I think you were

[2:08:27] here when Ken Houston, I

[2:08:28] flipped us off and fell asleep

[2:08:28] on both of those. He means

[2:08:31] when Flock was here before. So

[2:08:33] here we are again. How do you

[2:08:33] expect this mean? And at 8

[2:08:34] o'clock when there's touch

[2:08:38] such nonsense by the opd on

[2:08:39] this agenda, who does this

[2:08:40] council serve? Sam Singer, the

[2:08:41] people of Oakland. That's what

[2:08:41] we want to know. Where seen

[2:08:50] what's happening here? Hello

[2:08:56] Council airs Don. We do. I do

[2:08:58] love that. Councilmember Brown

[2:08:59] account. Number 5, you want to

[2:09:02] lower the cost of what we are

[2:09:03] spending and make it so that

[2:09:04] we are actually helping the

[2:09:07] people of Oakland. There are

[2:09:08] ways to, quote, lower

[2:09:10] emergency room visits by 80%

[2:09:11] reduced the number of jail

[2:09:13] days by 130%, reduce

[2:09:14] probability of committing

[2:09:15] crime by 80% and increase the

[2:09:17] probability of employment by

[2:09:19] 24%. None of them are funding

[2:09:20] helicopters. None of them are

[2:09:23] funding surveillance cameras.

[2:09:25] What they are is public income

[2:09:27] programs, things that will

[2:09:29] actually provide income

[2:09:30] through employment or public

[2:09:32] benefits to the people of

[2:09:33] Oakland, access to care,

[2:09:33] whether it's health care,

[2:09:34] mental health services and

[2:09:35] substance abuse. Use a

[2:09:36] substance use treatment. All

[2:09:40] of these things have actual

[2:09:41] research effect that are

[2:09:42] beneficial for the people of

[2:09:42] Oakland. And I think those

[2:09:44] should be prioritized over

[2:09:46] equipment. That is fun to

[2:09:48] drive for the people of

[2:09:49] Oakland for the people of

[2:09:49] Oakland. This is what we need

[2:09:56] to do. Thank you. Thank you

[2:09:58] for your service. That a lot

[2:10:03] of issues with police. But I

[2:10:03] realize we need your service.

[2:10:05] See some of these people out

[2:10:07] here when certain things

[2:10:08] happen, you know, did it all

[2:10:11] call? They all call you? If

[2:10:12] they get robbed or something

[2:10:15] going on. But anyway,

[2:10:16] appreciate your conversation

[2:10:18] about the chase thing. That's

[2:10:19] one of the most important

[2:10:20] aspects of having the

[2:10:22] availability of these cops

[2:10:26] because we can't do the chase

[2:10:27] They can come up broad

[2:10:30] spectrum of territory of

[2:10:31] Somebodys kidnapped. We got

[2:10:33] out and were alert. You can

[2:10:36] follow They drawbacks with the

[2:10:38] expenses that is involved with

[2:10:40] it. But we have cities like

[2:10:41] Los Angeles, San Diego, San

[2:10:44] Jose, Sacramento, Stockton,

[2:10:48] Pasadena. And other cities

[2:10:52] that have invested in us. And

[2:10:53] does have a service quality

[2:10:54] service that exists its

[2:10:58] expensive bill. And from my

[2:10:59] perspective, if we can keep

[2:11:01] it, I would like to keep it.

[2:11:02] Thank you for your comments.

[2:11:06] Missile Apollo. Switching to

[2:11:09] zoom user Blair, you yourself.

[2:11:14] I big Ben. We're talking about

[2:11:16] important policy to beach

[2:11:20] item, I really you know, city

[2:11:22] of Oakland, City Council and

[2:11:25] an opd really take the time

[2:11:26] and care to want to better

[2:11:28] explain to the public what

[2:11:28] exactly is going on with the

[2:11:31] current contract process. You

[2:11:32] guys keeping that really,

[2:11:35] really a we try to practice

[2:11:36] how to be accessible with the

[2:11:37] public on the subject and

[2:11:44] accountable. This item So so I

[2:11:47] I I my personal feeling

[2:11:49] helicopters can be a bit more

[2:11:52] flexible. Picks wing aircraft.

[2:11:53] But I don't know the full

[2:11:56] story. It sounds like picks

[2:11:57] pick. Spring has been slowly

[2:11:57] developing here in Oakland for

[2:11:58] a while where I have

[2:12:00] understand it yet. And so I'm

[2:12:04] just starting to. But I hope

[2:12:06] we respect the maneuverability

[2:12:07] and flexibility helicopters

[2:12:13] can offer. Thank you for your

[2:12:14] comments chair. That concludes

[2:12:19] all speakers on this item. Go

[2:12:20] ahead. Councilmember Houston.

[2:12:21] I just want to thank the

[2:12:22] officers for coming in share

[2:12:23] with them. That is nothing

[2:12:24] wrong with enjoying your job.

[2:12:27] Nothing wrong with that, sir.

[2:12:30] And I do the pursuit and chase

[2:12:30] policy because it has been

[2:12:33] effective. Great. Let's move

[2:12:36] to the vote. Thank you. We

[2:12:37] have a motion made by

[2:12:39] Councilmember 5 0nd by

[2:12:41] Councilmember Houston to put

[2:12:41] the record we move Councilor

[2:12:42] 5, give a comment or question

[2:12:43] on this item. Just need to

[2:12:46] extend the meeting. Make a

[2:12:49] motion to extend the meeting.

[2:12:55] Do we have to? It what time?

[2:12:56] Okay. Sounds like we don't

[2:12:58] have to do until 09:00pm 9.

[2:13:00] Make it for 9 because we're

[2:13:02] going to be here tonight.

[2:13:08] Let's take the vote. Thank

[2:13:12] you. We have a motion made

[2:13:14] Councilmember 5 0nd delay,

[2:13:15] Councilmember Houston to

[2:13:16] approve the recommendations of

[2:13:17] staff and board this item to

[2:13:18] the JULY 20 for City Council

[2:13:19] agenda on real councilmembers.

[2:13:23] Brown. I buy use endure one. I

[2:13:24] think you motion passes with

[2:13:25] 4. I support this item to the

[2:13:26] JULY 20 per City Council.

[2:13:29] Jenna, on consent item 8 was

[2:13:30] already dispensed with. Now

[2:13:34] reading in item number 9.

[2:13:35] Adopt a resolution authorizing

[2:13:36] the city administrator to

[2:13:37] enter into memorandum of

[2:13:38] understanding with the

[2:13:40] California Highway Patrol to

[2:13:41] some a vehicle accident

[2:13:42] reports electronically

[2:13:44] pursuant to be a vehicle code.

[2:13:46] Section 2, 0, 0, 0, 8, And

[2:13:46] there are 3 speakers on this

[2:13:54] item. All right. Let's call

[2:13:58] them use up here. Good

[2:13:58] evening, councilmembers and

[2:13:59] members of the public

[2:14:00] warnings. The sauce was on the

[2:14:02] deputy chief of the bill risk

[2:14:03] management. It and tonight

[2:14:05] presenting to you requesting

[2:14:08] council to enter into it.

[2:14:10] Memorandum of understanding

[2:14:13] with chp regarding our

[2:14:15] collision data. So I'm not

[2:14:16] sure how many of you are.

[2:14:17] Alright, everybody understands

[2:14:19] where we're at with our record

[2:14:20] management system. We are

[2:14:23] doing an upgrade to a record

[2:14:24] management system long overdo

[2:14:26] At least my career of 26 plus

[2:14:28] years. We've had the same

[2:14:29] system. So now we're upgrading

[2:14:32] to mark 43, which will be the

[2:14:34] overseer of our record

[2:14:35] management system. And in

[2:14:37] doing that, we're going to

[2:14:40] have crash data, which is a

[2:14:42] piece of there, Marc, 40

[2:14:43] threes program. What this is

[2:14:44] going to allow us to do with

[2:14:47] this memorandum of

[2:14:48] understanding is right now.

[2:14:49] Currently, we literally have a

[2:14:51] person that makes photocopies

[2:14:52] of each and every one of our

[2:14:54] collision reports put it in an

[2:14:55] envelope, put a stamp on it

[2:14:58] and put it in the mail. This

[2:14:59] will now allow us to send this

[2:15:02] data and the chronically. So

[2:15:03] as soon as the report is

[2:15:06] approved by the investigators

[2:15:07] and any sites citations that

[2:15:08] were issued from the

[2:15:09] collision, that all gets put

[2:15:12] in. It literally gets sent to

[2:15:12] the system and its

[2:15:15] electronically sent to chp.

[2:15:16] This is important because this

[2:15:20] is where dot get all of their

[2:15:21] information through sweaters,

[2:15:22] which is the statewide

[2:15:24] integration traffic reporting

[2:15:25] system, right? So this is

[2:15:25] where we get our high injury

[2:15:30] network. This is where we draw

[2:15:32] from what intersection to the

[2:15:32] most dangerous. What can we do

[2:15:36] to make them better? How do we

[2:15:37] slow them down? So this is

[2:15:38] just absolutely no cost.

[2:15:40] There's no cost involved in

[2:15:42] this. It literally just takes

[2:15:45] are handwritten reports. Mixon

[2:15:46] Digital and we get to send in

[2:15:49] the chp. It'll save us a lot

[2:15:52] of labor hours. So that they

[2:15:52] can do other things with in

[2:15:54] traffic and catch up. Cut

[2:15:57] right into it. A technical

[2:15:58] adviser that'll help me with

[2:16:00] any technical programming

[2:16:00] officer pull into this,

[2:16:04] helping with that. But that's

[2:16:04] basically it and kind of make

[2:16:05] a fast wide. It is quickly as

[2:16:09] I could. Great. And is this

[2:16:09] actually there was some

[2:16:12] reporting earlier this year

[2:16:14] on, you know, an excessive

[2:16:15] amount of overtime. Was it

[2:16:15] connected to actually the

[2:16:18] collision reports that were

[2:16:21] yes is actually meant to solve

[2:16:22] for. It will help. It won't

[2:16:24] solve all of it, but it will

[2:16:25] help the actual investigation

[2:16:26] takes the man hours to

[2:16:29] actually go through and figure

[2:16:31] out what caused the collision

[2:16:32] who cited what was a problem,

[2:16:35] right? So that part not gonna

[2:16:36] help as much, but it does help

[2:16:39] with then taking it and

[2:16:40] processing it and then getting

[2:16:45] it to the systems. Will give

[2:16:46] all the information hard to

[2:16:48] get all the look better. So it

[2:16:49] will definitely help with that

[2:16:51] because in that person can

[2:16:52] maybe start helping with some

[2:16:55] of the other parts in traffic

[2:16:56] with some of the grandson,

[2:16:56] some of the other things that

[2:16:57] are going on many, many hours

[2:17:02] per day. And then one other

[2:17:05] question I just have is as we

[2:17:07] look to civilian, I certain

[2:17:10] positions is it required by

[2:17:11] law. As opd is required to

[2:17:14] submit collision. Dated 2, the

[2:17:16] chp by law and that it

[2:17:17] references California vehicle

[2:17:21] code code. Excuse me, 2008, a

[2:17:22] does it require law

[2:17:23] enforcement agency to do those

[2:17:25] submittals or is it possible

[2:17:28] to have the Department of

[2:17:28] Transportation at some future

[2:17:29] date take on a portion of this

[2:17:32] work? Not sure if dog could do

[2:17:34] it, but we have professional

[2:17:37] staff that does it right now.

[2:17:37] So they're the ones that

[2:17:40] actually make physical copies.

[2:17:40] Ended up. So that part's

[2:17:45] already done. But it does

[2:17:49] require a sworn officer, too

[2:17:49] investigated an issue, the

[2:17:50] citation. So that's where that

[2:17:52] part comes in. Okay. That's

[2:17:52] couple clarification. Thank

[2:17:58] you. Let's go to public

[2:17:59] comment calling in the names

[2:17:59] that signed up to speak on

[2:18:03] item number 9, just the Rose

[2:18:04] Marie misses settle the ball

[2:18:16] and Libby Pigman. Hi, just you

[2:18:18] brought up the overtime fraud

[2:18:19] issue? It's a good one. Why

[2:18:21] don't they electron when they

[2:18:22] do electronic thing for time

[2:18:24] sheets, they tele could. They

[2:18:25] don't want to. Why don't you

[2:18:27] demand that they do it and

[2:18:29] make them calm with a proposal

[2:18:30] submit their time sheets,

[2:18:33] electronic electronically. So

[2:18:34] we don't have massive overtime

[2:18:35] fraud by this department. When

[2:18:38] is that going to happen?

[2:18:39] Councilmember said as we look

[2:18:41] to civilian certain positions,

[2:18:41] as I mentioned at the

[2:18:43] beginning of this meeting, the

[2:18:45] longest item that has been on

[2:18:46] on the penny. No date

[2:18:47] scheduled list is

[2:18:49] Councilmember Fife's item to

[2:18:51] demand that we civilian eyes

[2:18:53] these positions. Why don't you

[2:18:54] schedule? Will save millions

[2:18:56] and millions of dollars. And

[2:18:58] we can see with this council

[2:18:59] refusing to do it that you

[2:19:02] guys are in the pockets p o a

[2:19:03] piedmont landlords and all

[2:19:05] kinds of other right-wing

[2:19:05] actors. We have one council

[2:19:06] member serving the city of

[2:19:10] Oakland in 7 frauds and the

[2:19:12] staff report lies about Alpr

[2:19:12] here into sb 34 and admits

[2:19:22] that this data is going So it

[2:19:25] mentions in the report. Once

[2:19:29] you submit the data. Related

[2:19:30] to the collisions, you have to

[2:19:34] strip the report of the name

[2:19:37] address. So security number

[2:19:38] driver's license number, what

[2:19:43] are you subcommittee? I mean,

[2:19:48] come What are you submitting

[2:19:52] to chp? A pitch of the call? I

[2:19:56] don't get this sanctuary city

[2:19:57] stuff. This privacy stuff. You

[2:20:02] can submit any information.

[2:20:02] Want nobody to know nothing

[2:20:05] about But you've got these

[2:20:06] telephones and equipment that

[2:20:07] you all use and everybody

[2:20:11] knows your business. So

[2:20:13] privacy. Come y'all. What

[2:20:18] would you submitting?

[2:20:19] Switching to Zoom user Blair?

[2:20:19] You can unmute yourself and

[2:20:24] begin your comment. I as this

[2:20:27] is an item with thp. I feel

[2:20:27] it's important make an

[2:20:30] important time to simply

[2:20:34] remind chp has a large part

[2:20:36] the current lack situation

[2:20:38] with opd and why that contract

[2:20:40] is or is not being signed at

[2:20:41] this time. Really good luck on

[2:20:43] working on accountability and

[2:20:47] explaining that to the public

[2:20:48] before the upcoming opd

[2:20:49] meeting now and September

[2:20:51] October on these items, this

[2:20:56] item Yeah, hopefully it can

[2:20:58] help with agency, but what

[2:20:59] does that efficiency can to

[2:21:01] help with overall good luck.

[2:21:03] How we are. Our policies can

[2:21:05] be we're with each other and

[2:21:05] that we want to practice.

[2:21:09] Well, thanks. Thank you for

[2:21:46] me. Sorry clerk before we move

[2:21:51] on to open forum. I making the

[2:21:52] request of the parliamentary

[2:21:56] can you recap what the amended

[2:21:56] title is for item 8? This was

[2:21:58] at the city administration's

[2:22:00] request. Absolutely through

[2:22:02] the chair. Just clarifying for

[2:22:04] item 8. The motion title was

[2:22:06] to delete the alp. Our

[2:22:08] reference from the original

[2:22:10] resolution. So that was this a

[2:22:12] being stricken and to delete

[2:22:13] the reference to the

[2:22:15] attachment e which was opr

[2:22:17] report which is contained in

[2:22:20] the resolution at the first

[2:22:39] Jesse Rose more. Joy around.

[2:22:39] Air on us. Not all Loveland

[2:22:47] men. And Seleka Thomas. Hi,

[2:22:49] just euros You know, when we

[2:22:50] consider that corruption and

[2:22:51] feckless malfeasance of the

[2:22:55] city Council I wonder about

[2:22:58] some of the council members to

[2:23:01] dating campaign on being in

[2:23:02] the pockets of Sam Singer and

[2:23:04] the and Piedmont landlords.

[2:23:07] And like a body of team for a

[2:23:09] count commerce is. And I think

[2:23:09] specifically about you're

[2:23:12] going to Brown, you know, I

[2:23:14] think gaslit by several people

[2:23:14] on the city council when it's

[2:23:18] when it comes to plot gaslit

[2:23:19] by Charlie Wong's office. I

[2:23:23] think gaslit by Zac Unger.

[2:23:23] John, I Ramachandran doesn't

[2:23:25] want to respond anything. Your

[2:23:26] office is completely

[2:23:28] unresponsive. Now you say that

[2:23:29] you serve everybody. You see

[2:23:29] the serve, nobody and what I

[2:23:33] would like to now. When did

[2:23:34] when did you turn to become

[2:23:34] this kind of councilmember?

[2:23:38] When did this happen? Who said

[2:23:39] what to you to make are those

[2:23:39] interest and said the people

[2:23:41] of the city, I would like to

[2:23:56] know that. Thank you.

[2:23:56] And it

[2:23:57] is needed the be in a street

[2:23:58] vendor here in Oakland since I

[2:24:00] was 19 years old from what

[2:24:01] we've seen over the past 2 and

[2:24:04] a half The city's treatment of

[2:24:06] an have house from eating that

[2:24:08] he's team hit Steven does has

[2:24:12] been unsafe. The city needs to

[2:24:13] stop all raise on street

[2:24:15] vendors and do a serious legal

[2:24:17] review. Oakland's inforcement

[2:24:17] pot practices and the vendors

[2:24:19] and advocates have collected

[2:24:21] enough factual support that,

[2:24:23] you know, that investigation

[2:24:26] and with open exceeded his

[2:24:27] legal authority. Look pride

[2:24:28] centers of its property

[2:24:31] without adequate processes. Do

[2:24:32] both permitted and unpermitted

[2:24:34] vendors have been impacted.

[2:24:37] Our legal representative

[2:24:39] requested documents. He was

[2:24:40] ignored. He requested them

[2:24:41] again. He was ignored. I

[2:24:42] requested them. My request was

[2:24:43] redirected. Know documents

[2:24:48] were given and either way to

[2:24:49] the documents don't exist,

[2:24:50] which is a problem and unsafe

[2:24:52] or the documents being

[2:24:53] withheld and then was also a

[2:25:01] state visit. My daughter Joy

[2:25:03] summer, Ali, I want talk about

[2:25:04] a few things. One, I don't

[2:25:06] support the flock cameras into

[2:25:07] your time. A public safety but

[2:25:08] never have I ever heard talk

[2:25:09] about a bunker that we can go

[2:25:13] to in case of any type of like

[2:25:14] people's things, not just

[2:25:14] going to happen or something

[2:25:15] like that. I that's something

[2:25:17] I should put of like. Where do

[2:25:18] we go? If our city is

[2:25:23] destroyed? Are we on our own?

[2:25:24] Bridges? Doric Street vending

[2:25:26] culture neighborhood based

[2:25:28] economic system within the

[2:25:29] open community should not

[2:25:30] become the lies are erase. It

[2:25:31] is part of the Oakland

[2:25:31] identity and should be

[2:25:34] protected and supported. This

[2:25:35] is a quality of life for

[2:25:37] working class of black and

[2:25:39] brown floats. Now cause all of

[2:25:40] us have multiple jobs and side

[2:25:41] hustles to be able to exist in

[2:25:43] the city were born in raised

[2:25:45] in our culture and quality of

[2:25:47] life keeps getting negatively

[2:25:49] impacted by and for people who

[2:25:50] are not from here and can't

[2:25:52] figure out how to fit in.

[2:25:53] There has been talk about the

[2:25:54] trash and loud noise at the

[2:25:59] lake. We vendors how all agree

[2:26:00] we have as a city of 4

[2:26:08] cardboard trash can. Hire

[2:26:14] staff. Councilmember Wang

[2:26:14] Councilmember Brown comes

[2:26:15] member Phife and Councilmember

[2:26:20] Houston I sincerely hope that

[2:26:21] you consider what it means for

[2:26:25] a community to be safe. Does

[2:26:26] it make a community safe if we

[2:26:28] have cameras at every corner

[2:26:29] doesn't make a community safe.

[2:26:29] If we have multiple

[2:26:30] helicopters above our heads,

[2:26:33] does it feel safe to have men

[2:26:38] with arms and weapons on

[2:26:39] constantly patrolling every

[2:26:39] street. Corner weather is

[2:26:43] eyesore. Oakland pd. I do not

[2:26:45] believe that a safety safety

[2:26:45] starts with community safety

[2:26:48] starts with housing. Safety

[2:26:49] starts with health care. And

[2:26:52] it starts here in this

[2:26:54] committee. But you

[2:26:55] consistently tonight have

[2:26:57] shown that you will neglect

[2:26:59] safety of Oakland, citizens of

[2:27:02] the people of this town

[2:27:03] because you do not care for

[2:27:04] the safety of the reddest

[2:27:08] residents of Oakland and

[2:27:08] multiple of you have ignored

[2:27:19] multiple public comments, not.

[2:27:20] Madeline, Stacey, I'm opposed

[2:27:21] to the recent direction the

[2:27:23] city has taken against our

[2:27:26] street vendors. It is violent

[2:27:27] gatekeeping. The courts have

[2:27:28] already decided over and over

[2:27:29] again across California. Your

[2:27:30] approach is a violation of

[2:27:32] street vendors, constitutional

[2:27:34] rights. The state government

[2:27:35] recently passed the Safe

[2:27:39] Sidewalk Vending Act sb 946,

[2:27:39] which street decriminalize

[2:27:40] street vending statewide

[2:27:41] shifting of force meant away

[2:27:43] from criminal penalties. What

[2:27:45] the town is doing is in direct

[2:27:46] violation of both the series

[2:27:47] of lawsuits, the side of a

[2:27:49] street vendor's rights and sb

[2:27:52] 946, every dollar spent

[2:27:53] policing vendors should be

[2:27:54] redirected into small business

[2:27:55] grants, equipment, subsidies

[2:27:57] and technical assistant

[2:27:58] assistance program. Street

[2:28:01] vendors are entrepreneuers and

[2:28:02] making something or nothing.

[2:28:03] Their skill should be

[2:28:04] recognized, respected and

[2:28:07] honored, not criminalized.

[2:28:07] Tiffany is not just about

[2:28:10] food. Our commerce, it's about

[2:28:11] dignity. It's about who gets

[2:28:14] to exist in public spaces to

[2:28:15] criminalize of regulate. This

[2:28:16] ecosystem is not just bad

[2:28:16] policy is betrayal up.

[2:28:26] Oakland's identity. Hello City

[2:28:26] Council. My name is Seleka

[2:28:27] Time and I would like to

[2:28:30] address the 3 murders violence

[2:28:33] on JANUARY. 3rd, 2026 on 80th

[2:28:37] and another 3 murders plus

[2:28:38] fines by victims injured one

[2:28:40] Avenue by a hit and run on MAY

[2:28:44] 16th 2026. I foresee my

[2:28:44] condolences the families and

[2:28:47] to the victims. A 5th Avenue

[2:28:48] has always been known for is

[2:28:50] tragic traffic collisions in

[2:28:52] crime. So can we please sb

[2:28:56] cameras, peak bumps and a

[2:28:56] redesigned to slow down

[2:28:58] traffic in that area to reduce

[2:29:01] crime. And MAY we also please

[2:29:02] reinstate the bliss program

[2:29:04] for Adam Attic. Trash cleanup

[2:29:08] in that area and poor. All

[2:29:09] Oakland high spots so that we

[2:29:09] don't have to wait on anyone

[2:29:11] to report it. Thank you. And I

[2:29:15] just want to say that all of

[2:29:15] you are doing a very good job

[2:29:18] in Oakland has came so far

[2:29:20] even with the murders. We're

[2:29:22] down from about 130 murders

[2:29:23] per year. And we're down to 57

[2:29:33] and so this is one thing I

[2:29:38] know me all the time. I know

[2:29:40] that ms Brown works taught.

[2:29:44] And does homework. And makes

[2:29:47] contribution that a ballot.

[2:29:47] And sometimes we go ahead

[2:29:51] system. But you must system

[2:29:52] some stand and he want to talk

[2:29:52] about something else. But I

[2:29:55] have to defend you. You very

[2:29:57] efficient. Just like Fyffe. We

[2:29:58] fall out all the time. But you

[2:30:02] must system. And anybody say

[2:30:03] you don't do work. You do just

[2:30:04] like in Houston, you do to

[2:30:06] work. Even this Wang. You do

[2:30:07] work. You know, we fall out

[2:30:11] all the But I respect that.

[2:30:13] You do the work. It might not

[2:30:17] be the workout will. But you

[2:30:18] work. And nobody come in here

[2:30:22] and tell you. What are you

[2:30:23] doing? She's doing halt work.

[2:30:26] Ms Brown. And thank you. All

[2:30:31] of you. Okay. So we all fly

[2:30:42] you call the police on. Thank

[2:30:43] you for your ball as switching

[2:30:44] to zoom speak a player. You

[2:30:48] yourself begin your comment.

[2:30:50] Plant thanks to the meeting

[2:30:53] today are I'm pretty

[2:30:55] disappointed. However, I'm

[2:30:56] thankful I the new police

[2:30:56] chief sounds pretty

[2:30:57] interesting. He's been around

[2:31:01] Oakland for a while. He He

[2:31:03] knows the importance of

[2:31:04] community and participation of

[2:31:10] community that's good for

[2:31:11] getting it said that the

[2:31:11] administration is

[2:31:12] understanding that concept as

[2:31:15] well at this time. And,

[2:31:15] Brooke, what did they want to

[2:31:16] practice their their form of

[2:31:18] policy making their

[2:31:19] understanding the community's

[2:31:20] role in what they've

[2:31:21] developer, police oversight

[2:31:23] and other things. I think that

[2:31:26] starting to happen more. Good

[2:31:28] luck. We can talk more about

[2:31:30] clock accountability and that

[2:31:32] we can talk about the concept

[2:31:35] not a better accountability

[2:31:35] would block exactly happened

[2:31:38] with their contact things. But

[2:31:41] we start to really address the

[2:31:44] concept keep more strategic

[2:31:45] placement of our tech that can

[2:31:47] reduce tech year mall in small

[2:31:50] amount and that can Thank you

[2:31:51] for your comments are that

[2:31:52] includes all speakers. Create

[2:31:57] Councilmember Fife. I thank

[2:31:59] you. Chair Wang for allowing

[2:32:02] me the privilege to just

[2:32:05] clarify for some of the public

[2:32:06] speakers about my contribution

[2:32:07] to community in Oakland and

[2:32:10] I'll be brief because I don't

[2:32:12] talk about what I do. I am not

[2:32:17] a social media MAY even where

[2:32:19] and always in the public

[2:32:21] sharing what I do and part of

[2:32:23] the reasons why don't talk

[2:32:26] about it is because the

[2:32:26] conditions that I want to see

[2:32:27] change in the community are

[2:32:29] not solved yet. So I don't go

[2:32:32] out and celebrate the fact

[2:32:33] that I've been a part of the

[2:32:35] study group's political study

[2:32:37] groups to provide political

[2:32:39] education to the community or

[2:32:40] safe houses. When there are

[2:32:43] incidents with Nazis other

[2:32:46] issues in our community were

[2:32:49] my people have had to go into

[2:32:52] hiding because of being docks

[2:32:54] for the work we do in

[2:32:55] community or the birthing

[2:32:55] centers or the medical

[2:33:01] training or the independent

[2:33:02] schools or I could talk about

[2:33:03] the things that I've done in

[2:33:04] this city that most of you all

[2:33:08] had haven't even thought of to

[2:33:08] support my communities. So

[2:33:11] before the public gets up here

[2:33:11] and talks about what I'm not

[2:33:13] doing, any bodies not doing, I

[2:33:17] suggest more research. I don't

[2:33:19] disagree with public being

[2:33:21] able to state what they want.

[2:33:21] I want to say or what they

[2:33:25] want to see. But I take it

[2:33:26] personally when somebody comes

[2:33:27] up here talking about what I'm

[2:33:28] not doing and the community

[2:33:31] and that's how I heard you, my

[2:33:34] friend. So everyone has the

[2:33:38] right to point out the

[2:33:39] criticisms or the critiques or

[2:33:41] the challenges. But what I'm

[2:33:42] saying when it comes to

[2:33:46] Councilmember Fife as I was

[2:33:47] organizer in the streets of

[2:33:48] West Oakland for almost 30

[2:33:51] years before I got here, which

[2:33:52] is what put me here. So check

[2:33:53] my record before you come up

[2:33:57] here talking about me because

[2:33:59] I I got it from the mud and I

[2:34:00] will continue to do what I

[2:34:01] need to do for my people for

[2:34:03] black people in Oakland. We

[2:34:06] got to do both and we can't

[2:34:08] talk about the utopia that we

[2:34:08] want to see if we haven't

[2:34:10] created the systems for that

[2:34:13] in the community today. And

[2:34:16] I'm very well aware of what is

[2:34:19] needed about what is is

[2:34:20] studied, what is research what

[2:34:21] we need to keep people safe.

[2:34:23] But the difference between me

[2:34:24] and most people, especially

[2:34:26] people who were just talking

[2:34:29] and meetings. I put the work

[2:34:30] in and I never this is the

[2:34:33] first time I ever have talked

[2:34:36] at length about I I I with

[2:34:37] sometimes all come up here and

[2:34:40] get it twisted. I have like we

[2:34:42] have my collective. We are

[2:34:44] about shoot. And should know

[2:34:48] that. Thank you. Of course,

[2:34:52] Councilmember Houston. Yeah, i

[2:34:53] just wanted to just say I'm

[2:34:56] glad Council move. If I say we

[2:34:57] she said because I'd like to

[2:34:58] say just a few things about

[2:35:02] just on the strength people

[2:35:03] could tell me that I'm doing

[2:35:06] wrong district 7. If they from

[2:35:08] distance 7 now give a rip what

[2:35:09] they say. But the reason why I

[2:35:12] said saying this is because

[2:35:14] council member Brown. That's

[2:35:18] my girl, right? I mean, she

[2:35:20] guides me through she doing a

[2:35:21] She's across the city and I'll

[2:35:24] stand to fire any day of week.

[2:35:25] So Kuzma really do a good job.

[2:35:28] Keep it up. And if from

[2:35:29] district 7, you know, we you

[2:35:33] know what, I feel. Thank you.

[2:35:37] Colleagues. I think with that.
