The City and County of San Francisco’s fiscal year ended on June 30th. Every June/July comes a magical time where the City departments realize if they have money left at the end of the fiscal year. Followed shortly after by burning through whatever they have left, before new money gets dumped into their coffers on July 1. Typically, this shell game type behavior leads to things like two back to back Academy classes so one can be on the end of a budget cycle, while the next class starting shortly after July 1 is miraculously funded with the new fiscal year money. But when you can not fill one Academy class, I guess we can’t have two.
Thanks for adding clarification on the personnel numbers. SFPD has not been forthright about the growing lack of law enforcement protection to our city.
Any thoughts on what Elon Musk just posted in response to Hillary Clintons assertions? It seems people are comparing Chicago PD (jussie smollett) vs San Francisco PD (Paul Pelosi)?
Congrats, the Mayor asked for $51 million to hire 200 more officers and run 8 academys. Some dont want spend it on the police.
"President Shamann Walton sought to cut the number of proposed police academies, while Supervisor Dean Preston proposed withholding $50 million from the police department until it demonstrates it can improve transparency and reduce racial disparities in policing. Recent data showed San Francisco police use force on Black people 12 times as often as they do on white people, and five times more in Hispanic people."
