PRESENTATION (1) San Mateo County 911 Communications: New Facility and Computer Aided Dispatch System Presentation Town Manager Dennis introduced Jamie Young, Project Manager, 911 Communications Center and Computer Aided Dispatch. Ms. Young shared the background and history regarding the 911 Communications Center and its evolution. She narrated a slide show detailing the public safety services provided by the Center. She explained the current technologies in use and described the new emerging technologies. Ms. Young was accompanied by the Director of Operations for Public Safety Communications, Dan Belville. Ms. Young described the history, background, and details of the 911 services provided, including the evolution of the 911 wireless system. In response to Mayor Hughes’ question, Ms. Young said that if someone texts 911 into their mobile phones, they will get a bounce back message. She said there is a text control center, a filter that messages go through before they go to the 911 center, and the attempts made are not calculated. Ms. Young described the emerging Next Gen system, which all Counties are supposed to be on by 2020. She said, however, the State has not yet allocated funding for that, so the anticipated completion date of 2020 is unlikely. She said the County is preparing the new building so it will be ready when the Next Gen system rolls out. She said the Next Gen Center will include a real-time crime center with predictive crime analytics. Ms. Young described some of the emerging third-party apps in the public safety arena and the difficulty in managing them. She said the 911 Centers are moving into operations centers and the new technology is influencing how they do business. She said their regional operations center is currently in the construction document planning phase, which will provide them at least two-thirds more space than they currently have, and they are planning appropriately for growth. She said their basic function is 911 communications – getting resources to an emergency – but they are now moving toward a slew of other types of business in the public safety sector. 1 Page 5 Ms. Young invited questions from the Council. Councilmember Wengert asked for clarification regarding how the automated medical functionality works. Ms. Young said when someone calls 911 and says someone is having a heart attack, the dispatcher goes through a list of questions that provides patient information to determine the criticality of the patient’s status. She said as they move toward a full arrest situation, then that automation gives them the cue to move into step-by-step CPR sequence. She said it is an automated system in that as the dispatcher asks the questions and enters the answers, the next appropriate question pops up to get to the applicable instructions. She confirmed it is real time with a dispatcher, immediately redirected based on the criticality. The dispatcher stays on the phone with the caller and patient until first responders arrive. Councilmember Wengert asked for a description of the backup systems in place in the event of a massive earthquake or massive power failure. Mr. Belville said there is a backup station in Redwood City that is substandard because it is a small space and in close enough proximity that it may also be impacted by whatever impacts the main station. He said he met today with the San Francisco airport, who does have room at their facility. He said an obstacle is transporting their staff through Redwood City to the San Francisco airport during a disaster such as an earthquake. He said the County is building a new fire station at Tower Road and they can set up a dispatcher center in the back of the station while it’s being built. He said they were also in conversation with San Mateo about a switch that can be flipped to transfer calls there. He said another option would be to purchase some very robust trailers that are more mobile. He said it is a high priority and they are looking at three or four options to determine what will be best to achieve optimum redundancy.

During this time of soaring unemployment, financial insecurity, and growing hunger, we urge Congress to temporarily increase SNAP benefit levels in the next federal COVID-19 relief package. America’s cities are on the front line of responding to unprecedented disruption to local economies triggered by COVID-19. As mayors, we need every option available to fight hunger and stimulate the economy in our cities. SNAP is a proven solution to both challenges. By providing families with a grocery benefit they can use to purchase food directly, SNAP is a safe, effective way to ensure that low-income children and their families can get the food they need during this unprecedented crisis. While the FFCRA provided USDA with authority to increase emergency SNAP allotments for existing SNAP households to the maximum benefit, the most vulnerable families—roughly 12 million people, including 5 million children—received no additional nutrition assistance because their household already received the maximum SNAP benefit.

  • The Bankruptcy of Detroit: What Role Did Race Play?
    The Bankruptcy of Detroit: What Role did Race Play? Reynolds Farley* University of Michigan at Michigan Perhaps no city in the United States has a longer and more vibrant history of racial conflict than Detroit. It is the only city where federal troops have been dispatched to the streets four times to put down racial bloodshed. By the 1990s, Detroit was the quintessential “Chocolate City-Vanilla Suburbs” metropolis. In 2013, Detroit be- came the largest city to enter bankruptcy. It is an oversimplification and inaccurate to argue that racial conflict and segregation caused the bankruptcy of Detroit. But racial issues were deeply intertwined with fundamental population shifts and em- ployment changes that together diminished the tax base of the city. Consideration is also given to the role continuing racial disparity will play in the future of Detroit after bankruptcy. INTRODUCTION The city of Detroit ran out of funds to pay its bills in early 2013. Emergency Man- ager Kevyn Orr, with the approval of Michigan Governor Snyder, sought and received bankruptcy protection from the federal court and Detroit became the largest city to enter bankruptcy. This paper explores the role that racial conflict played in the fiscal collapse of what was the nation’s fourth largest city. In June 1967 racial violence in Newark led to 26 deaths and, the next month, rioting in Detroit killed 43. President Johnson appointed Illinois Governor Kerner to chair a com- mission to explain the causes of urban racial violence. That Commission emphasized the grievances of blacks in big cities—segregated housing, discrimination in employment, poor schools, and frequent police violence including the questionable shooting of nu- merous African American men.

    April 8, 2021 The Honorable Toni Atkins The Honorable Anthony Rendon Senate Pro Tempore Assembly Speaker State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 The Honorable Nancy Skinner The Honorable Phil Ting Chair, Senate Budget Committee Chair, Assembly Budget Committee State Capitol State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear President Pro Tempore Atkins, Speaker Rendon and Budget Chairs Skinner and Ting, We appreciate your willingness to meet with us, and to continue your partnership with the mayors of our largest cities in finding pragmatic solutions to address our state’s homelessness crisis. Given the scale of the challenge we collectively face, and because of the extraordinary opportunity created by two unique circumstances--the passage of the American Rescue Plan and the state’s budget surplus--we write to revisit our prior budget request. As you know, we have long believed that the state must identify an ongoing, consistent allocation of flexible funding sufficient to meet the enormity of the challenge in our cities for affordable housing construction and supportive services. While our economic challenges make it difficult to identify an ongoing revenue source, the large amount of one-time funding presents a generational opportunity to make a dramatic move to address our homelessness crisis. That can be accomplished by setting aside a one-time allocation of $16 billion for a steady expenditure of $4 billion per year over the next four years. Through our partnership, we’ve accomplished much in our cities in recent years through such initiatives as Project Homekey, HHAP, and HEAP. We created permanent or transitional housing for our homeless at an average cost to the state of $148,000 per unit under Project Homekey, for instance, and we built prefabricated dorms, modular housing, tiny homes, and shelters even more cost-effectively with state and local dollars.
