And
I
am
your
task

chair.
We
also
have
here
our
task
force
vice
chair,
councilmember
foley,
who
will
be
facilitating
part
of
the
meeting
as
well,
and
I'd
like
to
to
mention
that
today
we
also
have
closed
captioning
available.
C
A
D
C
Thank
you
very
much,
and
I
do
think
it's
important
that
we
identify
the
individuals
that
were
actually
here
to
to
try
and
and
prevent
any
of
these
further
victims
with
this
task
force
as
we
kick
off
each
and
every
one
of
these
meetings.
C
C
Today
we
welcome
a
new
department
to
the
vision,
zero
task
force,
the
county
emergency
services
agency,
known
as
ems.
It
is
where
the
county
collects
trauma.
Hospital
data,
san
jose
dot,
has
been
working
with
jackie
lauder
ems
director
falco
shohen
weiss,
specialty
programs,
nurse
coordinator,
ashanti,
corey
and
senior
p,
the
senior
epidemiologist
I'm
sorry,
I'm
I'm
bad
at
pronouncing.
That
word
and
thank
you
all
for
your
collaboration.
C
The
theme
for
today
the
first
our
first
task
force
meeting
was
a
kickoff
and
the
second
meetings
theme
was
outreach.
The
theme
for
today
is
data
which
we
analyzed
to
give
us
the
insights
that
the
that
inform
the
investments
we
make
to
help
achieve
vision,
zero.
In
the
big
picture
vision,
zero
brings
together
crash
data
collected
by
law
enforcement
staff
with
public
health
data.
Within
the
context
of
this
task
force,
dot
is
coordinating
partners
in
initiatives
to
connect
and
act
on
these
data.
C
Insights
in
san
jose
crash
date
is
collected
by
the
city
police
department
and
the
county
sheriff
trauma.
Hospital
data
is
collected
by
santa
clara
county
emergency
medical
services
and
the
county's
medical
examiner
coroner's
office
performed
studies
on
people
who
have
died
in
traffic
that
determined
whether
they
were
experiencing
homelessness.
C
As
we
link
the
data
and
analyze
it
in
greater
detail,
we
will
better
understand
of
which
safety
projects
and
strategic
cross-department
strategi
strategic
cross-departmental
initiatives
are
the
most
impactful
at
reducing
crashes,
severe
and
fatal
injuries,
and
to
inform
enforcement
engagement
and
education
effort.
Safety
impacts
must
be
regularly
studied
through
data
analytics
and
as
part
of
the
task
force.
C
There
will
be
a
task
force,
member
discussion
twice
15
minutes
after
reports
and
updates,
where
we
will
hear
about
the
2020
traffic
fatality
data
and
another
15
minutes
after
the
date
of
presentations.
That
will
be
followed
by
an
open
forum
for
the
public
to
comment
at
the
end
of
the
meeting,
and
now
after
that
intro,
I
would
like
to
do
a
roll
call
of
our
members
from
the
task
force
that
are
present
I'll,
be
calling
out
the
department
or
organization
name
and
if
the
representative
could
identify
themselves
by
their
name
and
their
title.

C
C
Okay,
and
now
we
are
going
to
post
our
minutes
from
our
december
10th
meeting
and
they've
been
posted
on
the
website
as
well,
and
if
you
have
any
comments
or
feedback
on
the
minutes,
you
can
reach
out
directly
to
staff
on
that.
C
Okay,
just
a
little
bit
of
housekeeping
so
as
you're
seeing
and
as
we
have
been
doing,
this
meeting
is
being
recorded
and
it
will
be
posted.
C
We
have
our
panelists
muted
by
default.
Since
we
are
a
large
group,
we
do
ask
that
you
use
the
raised
hand
function
in
your
toolbar
in
order
to
be
called
in
and
participate
and
then
utilize
the
mute
and
the
unmute
accordingly,
and
if
you
could
also
rename
yourself
and
your
agency
names
included
as
well
and
attendees
will
have
an
opportunity
to
publicly
comment
on
the
open
forum.
This
is
due
to
the
large
number
of
panelists
and
a
limited
amount
of
time
that
we
have
for
today
and
speaking
time
we'll
be
limited.
C
We
do
our
very
best
to
stay
within
the
prescribed
times
of
our
agenda
so
that
everybody
can
participate
an
open
forum
at
the
end
of
the
meeting,
or
else
will
be
at
the
end
of
the
meeting.
If
you
intend
to
speak
during
today's
open
forum,
please
raise
your
hand
or
press
the
star
nine.
If
you're
calling
on
our
phone
and
if
you'd
like
to
do
that.
Now
that
way,
we
can
get
a
sense
of
how
many
people
would
like
to
participate
in
open
forum
and
you'll
just
be
in
the
queue.

item.
G
Thank
you
for
the
introduction
council
member,
I'm
jesse,
vince
roth
vision,
zero
program
manager
at
the
department
of
transportation.
Thank
you
everyone
for
joining
today.
G
I
will
begin
this
presentation
by
talking
about
our
2020
vision,
zero
traffic,
fatality
and
severe
injury
and
all
injury
data.
I
want
to
begin
by
thanking
councilmember
perales
for
his
introduction
member
that
talks
about
you
know
people
by
their
name.
When
we
talk
about
the
data
here,
we
are
not
really
able
to
do
that.
We
are
a
lot
of
privacy
concerns
and
talking
about
individual
cases,
and
so
we
also
want
to
acknowledge
that
we're
talking
about
our
neighbors.
G
So
when
we
talk
about
the
data
here,
we
we
don't
intend
for
it
to
be
as
impersonal
as
it
may
sound
in
a
summary
way.
Also
in
2020,
I
think,
as
everyone
is
aware,
everything
is
different,
and
so
too
is
our
traffic
data
and
so
as
an
introduction
to
describing
it.
I
just
want
to
say
that,
similar
to
reports
in
other
u.s
cities,
the
traffic
volumes
are
down,
crashes
and
injuries
are
down,
but
speeding
is
way
up
and
you
will
find
that
as
a
theme
in
this
presentation,
so
we
use
the
acronym
ksi.
G
Sometimes
it
stands
for
fatal
and
severe
injuries
and
fatalities.
Traffic
fatalities
remain
in
range
from
the
last
five
years,
even
though
they
are
down.
But,
as
you
can
see
here,
that
fatalities
caused
by
speeding
are
up
over
100.
G
So
we
created
these
new
slides
to
track
the
change
in
the
way
that
2020
data
was
occurring
compared
to
previous
years,
and
so
you
can
see
that
as
these
lines
start
in
the
beginning
of
the
year
before
the
pandemic,
they
are
in
the
center
of
the
ranges
of
normal
for
injury
and
for
cumulative
fatal
and
severe
injuries
by
month.
But,
as
you
hit
march,
the
line
and
the
dots
in
the
top
two
graphs
or
actually
in
the
top
left
graph,
goes
below
the
range
from
previous
years,
2015
to
2019.
G
G
So
if
you
look
at
the
trend
in
recent
years,
49
for
2020
is
a
reduction
from
a
peak
last
year
of
60,
a
similar
peak,
also
in
2015.
G
G
If
you
look
at
traffic
fatalities
by
street
user
type,
you
can
see
here
that
we've
had
a
notable
decrease
in
people
hit
while
walking
in
2020.
However,
people
hit,
while
walking,
is
still
the
largest
street
user
group.
So
it's
interesting
that
we've
mentioned
before
the
uptick
since
2017
and
people
hit
while
walking
people
hit
while
walking
are
the
biggest
group
and
they're
the
biggest
group
in
the
five-year
data
and
also
in
the
single
year,
data
motor
vehicle
occupants.
G
It
appears
through
the
pedestrian
data
that
they
stayed
at
home
this
year
and
so
in
in
some
ways
that
may
be
a
plus
that
the
number
is
down,
but
these
numbers
are
just
to
see
the
trends,
and
we
also
see
that
in
the
cyclist
data.
But
as
I
mentioned,
that's
not
very
many
people
compared
to
the
people
walking,
so
that
number
is
more
volatile.
G
G
G
G
So,
to
continue
on
the
speeding
theme,
we
wanted
to
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
the
top
known
factors
contributing
to
fatal
and
severe
injuries.
Specifically,
if
we
look
at
the
police
data
to
see
what
the
known
causes
they
first
off
their
when
we
read
crash
reports,
they're
often
many
causes,
but
the
police
department
picks
a
top
one,
and
so
speeding
was
already
the
top
known
factor.
G
G
So
in
the
first
area
and
theme
of
this
meeting,
we
want
to
talk
about
our
data
analytics
initiatives,
primarily
in
this
meeting,
we'll
be
hearing
from
other
task
force
members.
But
we
did
want
to
talk
briefly
about
some
of
the
ones
that
vot
is
working
on.
Urban
logic
is
the
contractor
that
we
are
working
with
to
develop
a
data
dashboard.
G
The
contract
execution
is
very
close,
will
should
occur
the
next
few
weeks
and
so
we're
hoping
that
we'll
have
them
on
board
in
time
for
the
next
task
force
the
vision,
zero,
smart
communities
project
we
just
began
presenting
on
this
initiative
that
we've
been
working
on
for
a
year
or
two
now
and
inside
this
project,
which
is
called
intersection.
Safety
analytics
verizon
has
posted
some
cameras
above
three
intersections
in
san
jose
as
a
pilot
to
look
into
near-miss
data,
which
is
one
of
the
data
types
that
people
are
very
interested
in.
G
The
department
of
transportation
gets
approached
about
working
on
this
type
of
project,
frequently
by
lots
of
technology
companies,
and
so
when
we
did
take
on
one
of
these
companies
to
develop
this
product,
we're
very
interested
to
develop
it.
G
You
can
see
this
intersection
of
meridian
avenue
in
west
san
carlos
is
an
intersection
that
has
a
pedestrian
type
retail
on
the
southwest
corner
and
a
surface
parking
lot
on
the
southeast
quarter.
If
you're
familiar
with
this
site
on
the
southeast
corner,
it's
a
safeway
parking
lot
with
the
mcdonald's
at
the
corner.
G
And
what
really
highlights
in
this
image
is
the
the
yellow
and
the
red
colors
in
the
south
leg,
and
so
here
we
have
been
trying
to
think
about
how
to
use
this
data
and
what
this
data
means.
It
shows
obviously
a
density
of
data
there
and
you
can
see
from
the
text
on
the
slide
that
a
lot
of
you
know
if
we
look
at
the
sort
of
itemized
data
from
the
from
the
the
product
itself.
G
It
shows
us
that
almost
50
of
the
near-miss
events
are
on
the
south
leg:
60
involve
vehicles
going
northbound
and
83
involve
pedestrians
outside
the
crosswalk.
The
circles
and
the
pie
charts
tell
us
a
little
bit
more
about
the
specific
movement
that
the
driver
was
making
at
the
time,
but
I
think
the
looking
at
this
image
we're
really
interested
to
know
what
we
can
do
with
this
data.
G
And
so
the
thing
that
we
have
done
so
far
is
that
we
have
used
this
to
apply
to
a
caltrans,
sustainable
transportation
planning
grant
to
create
a
pedestrian
safety
themed
plan
for
the
four
council
districts
that
our
data
shows
have
the
most
fatal
and
severe
injuries
which
are
districts
three,
five,
six
and
seven.
So
we
applied
to
this
grant
caltrans
grant
program
last
month
and
are
hoping
that
we'll
be
able
to
hire
a
consultant
who
can
help
us
figure
out
what
we
can
do
with
this
data
to
effectively
make
walking?
G
G
G
E
Good
morning,
everybody
sergeant
greg
connolly
of
the
san
jose
police
department,
traffic
enforcement
units
glad
to
be
here
with
vision.
Zero
we've
been
working
with
d.o.t
constantly
since
vision,
zero
has
started
and
collaborating
with
our
information
and
trying
to
lower
the
fatalities
in
the
city
of
san
jose,
an
enforcement
activity
update
here
quarter,
one
quarter,
two
quarter
three
and
quarter
four.
E
You
can
see
the
volume
of
citations
that
are
written
only
by
the
traffic
enforcement
unit
during
this
time,
which
is
unusual
because
of
covid,
you
can
see
a
drop
in
citations
and
you
can
also
see
that
we
started
tracking
warnings
because
of
the
precautions
of
contacts,
close
proximity
of
people.
Until
we
got
more
information
on
covid
citations,
dropped
warnings
went
up
for
the
protection
of
officers.
E
As
more
information
came
out
about
the
virus
officers
had
protection
gear
became
more
comfortable
with
contacts,
and
you
can
see
the
citations
rise
and
warnings
lower
a
little
bit
and
then
also
in
there.
We
have
to
take
into
consideration
less
volume
of
vehicles
on
the
roadway
during
cobit,
because
everybody
was
shelter
in
place
and
as
jesse
talked
about,
speeding
was
a
main
factor
and
it
did
rise
well
with
less
traffic
on
the
roadways.
People
have
a
tendency
to
have
a
free-for-all
and
they
go
very
fast
because
there's
no
traffic
out
there.
E
So
you
see
some
variations
there
and
you
can
see
the
the
lower
one
compared
to
last
year
with
quarter
one
quarter,
two
quarter
three
and
quarter
four
with
the
amount
of
only
citations,
because
we
did
not
track
warnings
at
that
in
2019,
but
we
were
trying
to
get
a
handle
on
what
our
officers
are
doing
or
they're
actually
warning
people.
Are
they
stopping
people
and
with
this
data
here
you
also
have
to
understand
the
science
behind
it.
E
If
an
officer
pulls
a
traffic
officer,
pulls
somebody
over
and
is
talking
to
that
individual,
the
frame
of
mind
for
the
50
or
100
people
that
are
passing
by
that
traffic
stop
the
thought
is
the
police
are
citing
people
and
they're
enforcing
the
traffic
laws,
so
it
does
have
a
deterrence
whether
it's
a
citation
or
a
warning
just
having
the
psychological
effect
of
people.
Seeing
a
person
being
pulled
over
project
updates.
E
We
have
a
very
old
e-sight
system.
An
esight
system
is
basically
an
electronic
citation
system
that
mainly
only
the
traffic
enforcement
unit
used.
E
Their
primarily
focus
is
what
we
call
pcf
primary
collision
factor
factor
which
are
moving
violations
and
the
top
two
are
speeding
and
red
light
running.
So
when
we
go
out
around
the
city
and
enforce
citations
or
enforce
moving
violations,
these
are
what
the
police
officers
are
looking
at.
E
G
Think
that's
it!
Thank
you.
G
The
fourth
area
of
the
priority
actions
is
to
increase
community
outreach
and
engagement.
We
are
happy
to
say
that
we
just
this
morning
posted
a
notice
of
intent
to
award
our
vision,
zero,
strategic
communications
rfp.
So
we
will
we're
excited
that
we'll
be
able
to
bring
on
a
firm
shortly,
hopefully
in
hopefully
spring,
but
we
look
forward
to
working
with
them.
G
Additionally,
there
are
two
new
regional
and
county
vision.
Zero
working
groups
that
I'd
just
like
to
mention
is
very
important
to
us
to
be
able
to
achieve
vision,
zero
and,
as
we
broaden
knowledge
of
this
initiative
around
the
county
and
around
the
region
in
the
whole
bay
area
and
elsewhere
in
the
state,
there'll,
be
greater
coordination
between
cities
on
initiatives
and
literacy
about
work
in
this
area.
G
So
the
bay
area,
metropolitan
transportation
commission
held
its
first
meeting
for
regional
vision,
zero
work
on
february
17th
and
inside
the
county,
the
santa
clara
county's
traffic
safe
communities
network,
which
is
a
project
of
the
public
health
department
which
I'm
part
of
this
tscn
steering
committee
and
now
lead
the
working
group
on
vision,
zero.
We
had
27
people
attend
a
kickoff
meeting
that
was
on
february
26th,
and
everyone
was
from
municipalities
and
county
agencies
and
in
that
meeting,
gave
input
on
the
group's
work
plan.
G
G
This
involved
putting
changeable
message
signs
on
the
vision,
zero
corridors
that
showed
these
messages
and
also
creating
a
poster
board
campaign
that
are
posted
on
vision,
zero
corridors.
It
was
a
big
work
to
put
up
these
signs,
so
thank
you
to
those
who
helped
us.
G
G
The
last
area
is
to
prioritize
resources
on
high
ksi
corridors
and
districts,
as
you
saw
in
the
last
slide.
All
of
that
work
is
on
the
high
ksi
corridors,
but
the
grant
application
that
I
mentioned
on
the
slide
about
the
near
miss
technology.
We
want
to
also
focus
on
the
high
ksi
districts,
the
areas
that
are
not
on
the
corridors
and
so
the
the
grants
that
we
applied
for
with
california
walks
as
our
co-applicant
is
tentatively
called,
walk,
safe,
san
jose
and
is
in
districts
three
five,
six
and
seven.
G
We
received
lots
of
letters
of
support
for
that
application
and
we
also
applied
for
another
project
on
king
road,
which
is
in
districts
three,
five,
seven
and
eight.
Additionally,
we
want
to
mention
our
city-wide
collision
review
project,
which
is
underway
now
in
this
project.
We
look
through
all
of
the
data
crash
data
and
other
types
of
data
in
recent
years
to
well,
actually,
I
should
say
particularly
collision
data
to
review
locations
where
we
can
make
improvements,
we'd
like
to
do
at
these
locations,
holistic
reviews
and
make
safety
enhancements.
G
C
We
are
now
going
to
open
it
up
for
questions
on
the
presentations
that
we've
just
seen
and-
and
I
know
I
I
got
one
coming
in-
I
don't
know
if
and
if
you
wanted
to
raise
your
hand
for
any
of
the
participants
we'll
start
with
nikita.
D
Thank
you
councilmember.
I
had
two
quick
questions
about
the
data
one.
I
I
recall
reading
about
a
fair
number
of
solo
vehicle
crashes
that
led
to
fatalities.
Is
that
something
that
has
increased
from
past
years
or
is
that
data
available.
G
Yes,
there
are
a
fair.
There
are
a
large
number,
interestingly
there's
a
large
number
in
2019
as
well,
so
the
number
overall,
I
believe,
is
11
or
12
similar
to
last
year.
So
I
I
would
say
that,
yes,
that
is
true,
and
yes,
it's
also
similar
to
last
year.
D
Okay
and
then
thank
you
and
then
my
other
question
was:
is
there
age
data
available
for
not
just
the
fatalities
but
also
severe
injuries
as
well?
I
think
it
is
definitely
noteworthy
that
the
median
age
has
dropped
for
pedestrian
fatalities,
but
I
also
want
to
recognize
that
an
injury
for
an
older
adult
is
much
more
potentially
much
more
significant
than
other
ages,
and
I
want
to
hear
if
there's
any
data
on
on
the
age
range
of
all
ksi.
G
That
is
a
analysis
that
we
can
do.
I
think
that
you
know
one
of
the
things
about
doing
the
analysis
is
you
know
we
put
together
these
data
analysis
to
make
this
presentation,
but
we
also
have
another
presentation
coming
to
the
transportation
environment
committee
and
there
are
more
analyses
that
we
could
potentially
do
for
that
presentation,
which
is
in
early
may.
F
C
You
all
right,
thank
you
and
then
next
up
is
enough.
Prasad.
H
Good
morning,
this
question
is
for
the
san
jose
police
department,
I'd
like
to
find
out
what
their
schedule
is
for
the
software
upgrade
to
their
system,
because
we've
been
waiting
to
get
the
collision
records
directly
into
cross-road
system.
We
have
a
county-wide
collision
database
system,
we'd
like
to
get
that.
I
think
we've
been
waiting
for
upgrade
to
this
software.
E
Hello,
the
process
is
currently
underwear
underway,
the
purchase
order
has
been
put
in
but
out
of
my
hands
because
we
have
to
deal
with
fiscal
budgeting
and
several
other
constraints.
G
Thank
you.
I
would
also
add
that
I
believe
the
department
of
transportation
is
working
with
the
I
wouldn't
say
the
vta
worker,
so
lily,
who
is
on.
This
call,
may
be
able
to
speak
to
this
in
more
detail,
but
she
has
been
working
to
get
the
data
into
crossroads
and
I
believe
we're
waiting
to
hear
about
whether
it's
been
ingested.
Yet.
D
That's
correct,
jesse.
I
think
enough
staff
is
very
familiar
with
that
process,
so
we
are
working
to
get
the
current
data
into
the
crossroads
system,
but
not
a
direct
link
between
police
department's
esight
system
and
crossroads.
C
Thank
you,
and-
and
this
is
good
information
for
councilmember
foley
and
myself-
areas
where
we
may
be
able
to
help,
especially
as
sergeant
conley
pointed
out
that
you
know
it
may
be
just
stalled
in
the
process
and
and
could
be
just
simply
a
prioritization
of
funding
of
a
question,
but
that's
something
where
we
can.
We
can
help
to
see
if
we
can't
urge
along
and
then
maybe
sergeant
conley.
You
can
provide
us
updates
on
this
as
we
go
through
subsequent
meetings.
I
appreciate
that,
okay
and
with
that
all
for
you
enough.
D
Thank
you.
So
I
just
had
a
question
for
follow-up
for
jesse
when
you
were
talking
about
the
intersection
of
meridian
and
san
carlos.
It
has
hadn't
come
up
in
our
discussions
yet
and
it
just
kind
of
came
to
mind
when
you
were
talking
about
it,
because
I'm
actually
pretty
familiar
with
that
location.
D
I
visit
there
frequently
in
the
middle
of
the
middle
of
the
night,
when
I
need
medication
for
for
my
kids,
but
one
of
the
things
that
I
noticed
is
that
there
is
a
higher
number
of
unhoused
in
that
area,
typically
younger
folks,
and
it
would
be
interesting
to
to
see
what
the
numbers
are
for
that
particular
group
that
are
being
struck.
D
If
there's,
if
there's
specialized
outreach,
I
know
we've
got
the
county
on
the
line
and
they
do
obviously
have
programs
for
the
unhoused
and
if
we
could
explore
that
as
potentially
a
special
type
of
of
community
outreach
and
education
to
address
again,
I
don't
know
what
the
numbers
are
and
how
they
might
be
included
in
the
number
of
fatalities
or
pedestrians
being
struck.
But
it
might
be
worth
something
to
look
at.
G
Thank
you
for
that
comment.
We
will
actually
be
talking
about
that
in
our
next
presentation.
So
maybe
I'll
wait
to
answer
it
until
fully
until
then,
but
thank
you
for
the
suggestion.
C
Okay,
thank
you
and
I
think
that's
it,
although
your
hand
is
still
up,
but
I
believe
you
said
you
were
you
were
done,
so
I
think
that's
it
for
this
section
appreciate
that
and
we'll
now
continue
our
discussion
about
data
we'll
bring
back
sergeant
great
connolly
from
the
the
childhood
police
department's
traffic
enforcement
unit.
We
have
dr
michelle
jordan,
the
director
of
the
county,
medical
examiner,
coroner's
office
and
falco
sean
weiss
and
apologize
again.
C
The
nurse
coordination
at
under
north
coordination
at
the
county's
emergency
medical
services
agency
welcome
each
presenter
here
will
have
five
to
ten
minutes,
followed
by
five
minutes,
where
jesse
will
describe
how
the
city
of
san
jose
envisions
their
task
force,
uses
or
plans
to
use
their
data
and
then
for
task
force.
Members,
please,
if
you
can
hold
your
questions
to
the
end
of
all
three
of
the
presentations,
we'll
give
a
full
15
minutes
at
the
end
of
that.
For
for
dialogue,.
E
Hello
again
sergeant
greg
connolly,
the
san
jose
police
department,
traffic
enforcement
unit.
Just
to
give
you
a
breakdown
of
the
police
department
in
itself,
how
we
handle
crashes
and
citations.
E
E
E
When
we
get
those
traffic
reports
which
we
call
triple
nickels,
they
are
sent
to
our
records
division
and
they
input
them
to
our
system,
and
I
have
two
officers
inside
my
office
that
go
through
every
single
traffic
report
that
is
given
to
the
police
department
and
takes
data
from
those,
and
we
call
it
a
hand
check.
So
our
process
is
very
time
consuming.
E
He
has
to
look
at
every
report
and
go
through
every
box
and
capture
that
data
with
that
data.
We
send
it
over
to
the
department
of
transportation
and
we
also
send
it
to
the
state
which
we
call
sweaters
dot,
analyzes
the
data
and
creates
creates
maps
in
their
heat
source
maps
kind
of
like
what
we
saw
in
prior
in
this
presentation
and
the
hotter
it
is
the
redder
it
is.
The
more
accidents
in
collisions
are
in
that
area.
E
Now
we
also
do
that
as
a
police
department
with
our
information.
So
it's
not
solely
on
the
department
of
transportation.
We
have
a
crime
analysis
unit
that
takes
all
the
calls
for
service
that
are
related
to
traffic
collisions
and
we
capture
that
data,
and
then
they
also
give
us
heat
source
maps
to
my
unit
and
that's
how
we
send
out
officers
to
areas
when
we
deploy
them
to
different
areas
of
the
city
and,
as
I
said
before,
not
only
is
the
traffic
enforcement
unit
tasked
with
writing
citations
and
enforcing
the
primary
collision.
E
Last
year,
I
I
had
a
different
number
for
everybody,
I'm
glad
to
say
our
staff
is
up
to
11.,
there's
15
in
the
office,
that's
including
a
lieutenant
and
two
sergeants,
and
I
have
two
that
work
for
me,
which
is
the
special
events
team,
and
then
we
have
11
enforcement
officers
on
motorcycles.
E
E
That's
where
we
send
the
officers
out
to
work
those
areas
now,
with
collaboration
with
the
department
of
transportation
and
vision,
zero,
they
have
corridors
that
they
come
up
with,
that
are
vision,
zero
corridors.
If
those
areas
are
in
the
same
area
of
our
heat
maps,
we
send
the
officers
to
the
vision,
zero
corridors
and
say,
work
these
areas
and
write
citations
there.
E
We
also
work
with
the
department
of
transportation
with
we
called
it
fight
the
spike.
Knowing
the
darkness
is
there.
So
when
the
time
change
came,
they
did
their
campaigns
and
we
saw
the
the
slides
with
the
trailers
out
there
giving
notice
slow
down,
and
then
we
saw
the
banners
as
well.
E
E
When
the
time
change
happens
to
enforce
that,
we
don't
want
to
do
it
all.
At
the
same
time,
we
want
to
give
an
education
process,
let
people
give
people
a
chance
to
slow
down
or
follow
the
warnings
and
then
go
out
there
and
force
them.
E
We
track
our
citations
by
an
e-sight
system
like
I
said
earlier
patrol
officers
that
are
driving
around
in
the
patrol
cars
in
their
districts.
They
still
use
paper
citations
and
there
is
no
tracking
of
that.
E
And
I
think
I
covered
about
everything:
the
enforcement
honestly
with
the
the
county,
expressways
and
other
facilities
traffic
officers.
They
work
in
san
jose
and
it
doesn't
matter
if
it's
sheriff's
department
jurisdiction,
county
road.
E
They
have
a
blanket
to
cite
anybody
for
moving
violations
and
stop
people
where
that
county
and
different
districts
come
into
play
is
basically
on
investigations
which
will
come
down
to
traffic
collisions
and
then
is
that
it
for
me
jesse.
That's
the
only
slide.
G
So
to
just
follow
up
on
the
way
that
the
data
then
comes
to
the
department
of
transportation.
Here
at
the
department
of
transportation,
we
have
a
full-time
staff
who
takes
the
reports
and
reads
them
and
codes
them
and
puts
them
into
our
database,
and
that
database,
which
is
you
know,.
D
G
So
we're
also
trying
to
focus
more
on
the
top
factors
contributing
to
fatal
and
severe
injuries,
speeding
and
red
light
running.
There
are
some
complications
now
with
the
reporting
that
that
enforcement
work
back
to
us,
because
you
know
the
the
system-
that's
old
at
the
police
department
that
they're
trying
to
replace.
G
F
Excellent
jesse,
I
am
just
going
to
test
my
slides,
real
quick.
It
doesn't
look
like
I
can
advance
hang
on.
That's
weird.
G
F
Okay,
great
good
morning,
everyone,
the
medical
examiner
coroner's
office,
would
like
to
thank
vision,
zero
for
inviting
us
here
today
to
share
our
data,
and
we
continue
to
look
forward
continuing
the
collaboration
with
vision,
zero
and
our
county
partners
and
our
city
partners.
F
F
F
Our
office
tracks
homeless
deaths
through
our
software
program
that
provides
a
check
box
for
cases
involving
homeless
decedents
after
the
cases
are
reviewed.
Using
the
software
allows
us
to
easily
compile
the
cases
where
homelessness
is
suspected
for
additional
review
against
the
definition
outlined
in
our
study,
which
will
be
the
next
slide.
F
F
The
number
of
homeless
deaths
increased
by
164
percent
from
2011
to
2016.,
the
point-in-time
homeless,
census
and
survey
that
was
conducted
in
santa
clara
county
back
in
january
of
2017
found
an
increase
in
the
homeless
population
by
13
percent
since
2015,
and
this
is
consistent
with
the
increase
that
we
found
in
our
study,
therefore
verifying
the
number
of
deaths
that
we
were
reporting
next
slide.
Please,
during
these
six
years
of
data,
83
percent
of
all
homeless
decedents
were
male
with
only
17
percent.
F
What
I'd
like
to
draw
your
attention
to
is
the
second
and
third
bar
graphs
on
the
left,
which
represent
homeless
individuals
who
are
dying
outdoors
either
in
homeless,
encampments
or
other
places,
and
when
you
add
these
two
bars
together,
they
exceed
the
number
of
deaths
that
are
occurring
in
hospitals
next
slide.
Please.
F
There
is
a
growing
concern
about
the
rise
in
the
number
of
senior
age
homeless.
Individuals
as
depicted
in
this
graph,
santa
clara
county
observed
a
320
percent
increase
in
the
number
of
homeless,
decedents
aged
65
years
and
older
between
2011
and
2016.,
and
this
is
a
continued
concern
for
us
at
the
medical
examiner's
office
because
as
a
baby
boomer
population
ages,
so
does
the
homeless
population
accounting
for
the
increase.
F
F
Next
slide,
please,
as
part
of
our
study,
we
also
did
a
focus
on
vehicle
accidents
between
2015
and
2016
as
depicted
in
the
graph.
The
number
of
vehicle
accidents
has
caused
a
death
increased
by
44.4
percent.
According
to
our
calculations,
these
were
predominantly
pedestrian
fatalities,
with
many
of
these
deaths
occurring
at
night,
with
the
decedents,
typically
wearing
dark
clothing
and
not
walking
within
marked
crosswalks.
F
Another
thing
to
note
with
our
study
is
that
the
majority
of
the
individuals
involved
in
these
accidents
also
tested
positive
for
drugs
and
alcohol
at
the
time
of
the
incident,
while
motor
vehicle
fatalities
account
for
a
small
number
of
the
deaths.
Seen
in
our
study,
it
is
still
important
for
drivers
to
be
hyper
vigilant
towards
this
population.
F
F
F
F
F
For
the
study
we
also
looked
at
any
type
of
recent
stressors
prior
to
death,
so
of
the
476
case,
files
that
were
reviewed
for
any
stressors
that
occurred
hours
to
days
prior
to
death.
We
thought
that
this
was
important
to
take
a
look
at
these
events
were
categorized
based
on
notations
in
our
investigative
reports
and
included
emotional
stressors,
which
are
indicated
in
the
blue
medical
stressors,
indicated
in
purple.
F
Physical
and
verbal
altercations
prior
to
death,
indicated
in
green
and
interactions
with
law
enforcement
indicated
in
black.
The
most
common
type
of
stressor
was
medical,
indicating
that
a
portion
of
the
homeless
decedents
have
underlying
medical
conditions
and
may
or
may
not
be
receiving
consistent
medical
attention.
F
It
is
worth
mentioning
that
the
homeless
population
encountered
less
stressors
overall
in
santa
clara
county
in
2016
than
any
other
year
next
slide,
please.
So
the
highlights
in
our
study
were
that
we
documented
homeless
deaths
in
santa
clara
county,
increased
164
percent
over
a
six-year
period
between
2011
and
2016.
The
homeless
population
rose
with
the
greatest
number
of
deaths
occurring
in
2016.,
males
and
caucasians
were
the
most
predominantly
represented
alcohol
and
methamphetamine
were
the
most
commonly
abused
drugs.
F
Heroin
deaths
are
being
monitored
and
continue
to
be
monitored.
Given
the
opioid
epidemic,
the
number
of
deaths
of
individuals
65
years
and
older,
has
risen
and
is
expected
to
rise.
Given
the
aging
baby
boomer
population,
a
significant
percentage
of
the
homeless
are
continuing
to
die
in
homeless
encampments
and
on
the
streets
next
slide.
Please
our
recommendations
in
our
2017
report
included
access
to
consistent
medical
and
mental
health
care
services,
as
well
as
drug
and
alcohol
services
and
employment
resources,
which
were
underscored
in
our
report.
F
We
also
felt
that
preventive
health
care
in
the
forms
of
vaccine
should
be
underscored,
and
I
think,
given
the
covid19
pandemic,
even
more
so
underscored,
it's
important
that
homeless
individuals
do.
You
have
access
to
medical
care
to
treat
chronic
medical
conditions
and
in
our
report
we
also
stated
the
fact
that
we
need
to
be
cognizant
that
homeless
individuals
do
have
pets.
F
F
F
F
I
know
this
is
a
busy
slide,
but
what
I'd
like
you
to
pay
attention
to
are
the
accidental
deaths,
as
well
as
the
natural
deaths,
as
seen
on
the
slide,
the
number
of
homeless
deaths
continue
to
rise,
as
we've
seen
in
terms
of
the
circumstances
of
death
starting
in
2018.
The
medical
examiner
noticed
that
the
number
of
accidental
deaths
were
surpassing
the
number
of
natural
deaths
compared
to
prior
years
and
continues
to
be
observed
next
slide.
Please.
F
What
I'd
like
to
draw
your
attention
to
are
the
last
three
categories
at
the
end
of
the
slide,
what
we've
decided
to
do
at
the
medical
examiner's
office
to
even
provide
more
information
for
our
partners,
is
to
take
motor
vehicle
fatalities
and
separate
them
into
individuals
who
are
dying
in
a
motor
vehicle
versus
pedestrian
versus
bicyclist
versus
train
accidents.
We
think
this
is
important
data
that
can
provide
further
research
opportunities,
as
well
as
outreach
to
the
community.
F
Maybe
the
need
for
reflective
clothing
for
our
homeless
individuals,
so
they
can
be
identified
easier
at
night
in
the
use
of
crosswalks
and
just
really
underscoring
the
drug
and
alcohol
related
fatalities,
especially
if
someone
is
intoxicated
just
really
underscoring
the
need
for
drivers
to
be
hyper
vigilant
if
people
are
not
in
marked
crosswalks
with
that.
That
concludes
my
presentation
and
I'm
more
than
happy
to
take
questions
at
the
end
of
all
the
presentations.
F
G
Thank
you,
dr
jordan.
That
was
great.
It's
also
particularly
to
see
the
updated
slides
with
updated
data
and
also
the
way
that
your
office
broke
them
up
so
that
we
can,
after
this
meeting,
have
more
intel
about
how
to
work
on
this
than
we
had
before
from
your
earlier
reports
that
are
on
your
website
and
also
great
to
you
know,
have
everyone
on
the
task,
force
and
who's
watching,
be
aware
of
the
great
work
you
do.
G
Since
we
learned
about
your
work
and
reached
out,
we
have
taken
the
police
data
that
we
assume
involves
people
experiencing
homelessness
and
checked
it
with
the
medical
examiner
coroner's
database
to
basically
find
out
if
the
ones
that
look
like
they
might
be
homeless
in
the
police-collected
crash
data
do
meet
the
county's
definition
of
homelessness,
and
then
we
have
mapped
those
and
mapped
to
them
by
whether
they
were
hit
while
walking
or
biking
or
driving,
or
were
an
occupant
in
a
motor
vehicle
at
the
time.
G
And
so
we
find
that
looking
at
the
data
from
2015
to
2020,
specifically
within
the
city
of
san
jose,
whereas
the
data
that
the
medical
examiner
corner
presented
on
was
county
wide,
specifically
within
the
city
of
san
jose,
most
people
are
in
this
category
are
hit
while
walking
and
the
the
district,
with
the
most
dots
that
you
see
on
the
screen
is
district
seven,
but
there's
also
a
large
number
in
district
three
in
district
five,
and
so
when
we
first
did
this
research
and
first
began
working
with
the
medical
examiner
coroner.
G
Angelique's
comment
in
the
last
task
force
member
segment
discussion,
because
we're
interested
to
find
out
if
any
other
city
has
done
this
before
and
also
if
we
were
going
to
create
a
campaign
like
this,
what
it
would
look
like,
and
so
I
spoke
to
the
lived
experience
board
of
one
of
the
organizations
here
in
san
jose
to
see
if
they
thought
this
would
be
a
good
idea
to
pursue
and
the
lived
experience
board
of
formerly
homeless
people
was
supportive.
G
We
also
I
reached
out
to
basically
strategic
communications
consultants
to
think
about
how
to
distribute
a
campaign
like
this
and
they
were
interested
in.
Oh
one.
Second,
I
didn't
mean
to
advance
that
slide,
but
they
were
interested
in
in
the
idea
of
working
with
one
of
our
local
organizations
that
already
works
with
the
homeless
population
here
in
san
jose,
and
so
last
year
we
applied
for
a
grant,
but
we
did
not
end
up
receiving
the
grant
and
so
we're
interested
in
continuing
to
develop
this
possible
idea.
G
Obviously,
we
realize
that
there
are
a
lot
of
challenges
in
the
life
of
someone
who's
homeless.
So
you
know
we
would
like
to
discuss
it
out
a
little
bit
more
in
the
task
force,
member
discussion
that
follows
these
presentations
and
also
the
open
forum.
So
I'm
going
to
move
on
now
to
falco
schnaweis,
who
is
from
the
emergency
medical
services
agency,.
I
Good
morning,
everybody
I'll
christina
voice
nurse
coordinator
for
the
specialty
programs
on
behalf
of
santa
clara
county
ems
agency.
Thank
you
for
having
us
here
and
there
okay
looks
like
I
can
advance
so
here
at
the
office,
we're
staff
of
21.
We
have
jackie,
lawler
ems,
director
and
kenneth
miller,
the
ems
medical
director.
I
I
So
when
I'm
saying
specialty
programs
so
we're
the
local
ems
authority
for
santa
clara
county
and
for
the
specialty
programs,
we
have
three
trauma:
centers
one
burn
center,
eight
semi-receiving
centers.
That
would
be
where
patients
would
be
treated,
or
these
are
centers
that
are
specialized
to
treating
heart
attacks,
10
primary
stroke,
centers,
four
comprehensive,
stroke,
centers
and
at
this
point
I'm
an
unknown
amount
of
pediatric
receiving
centers
because
we're
currently
in
the
process
of
establishing
ems
for
children.
I
I
We
have
the
system,
that's
called
em
resource
that
tells
us
a
hostile
status,
they're
open
to
receive
9-1-1
ambulances,
they're
open
for
trauma,
they're
open
to
receive
stemi
patients,
a
patient
that
experienced
a
heart
attack
or
they're
open
to
receive
a
stroke
patient
an
example
would
be
so
the
treatment
of
a
stroke
patient.
A
ct
scanner
is
very
important.
If
that's
his
t-scanner
would
be
what
we
call
down
inoperable
at
the
time.
I
That
center
would
have
to
put
themselves
on
what
we
call
bypass
so
that
an
ambulance
would
not
bring
a
stroke
patient
to
that
facility
because
they
could
not
treat
that
patient
appropriately
and
they
would
go
to
the
next
closest
center.
That
is
open.
That's
the
purpose
of
that
system.
We
have
the
ems
patient
care
record.
What
we
use
the
acronym
pcr
and
that's
our
current
system-
is
image
trend
elite.
I
This
is
where
the
ambulance
crews
put
all
their
demographic
data
in
and
also
kind
of
what
they
did
for
the
patient,
vital
signs
how
they
treated
the
patient
and
to
what
destination
the
patient
went
and
a
brief
narrative
of
the
events
that
transpired.
I
I
Focusing
on
on
just
the
trauma
centers
just
to
kind
of
not
over
complicate
it,
there's
a
lot
of
acronyms
and
everything
I
apologize.
So
in
santa
clara
county,
we
have
three
trauma:
centers.
We
have
regional
medic
center
of
san
jose,
which
is
a
level
two
adult
trauma
center.
We
have
stanford
health
care
level,
one
adult
level,
one
pediatric
trauma
center
and
we
have
santa
clara
valley,
medical
center,
which
is
the
level
one
adult
and
level
two
pediatric
center.
I
I
So
I
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
flow
of
trauma
data,
so
a
traumatic,
traumatic
injury
occurs.
Ems
arrives
on
scene.
They
need
to
make
a
decision.
If
this
is
a
designated
trauma
patient,
we
have
a
policy
605,
which
is
our
trauma.
Triage
policy.
I
There's
certain
criteria.
We
have
physiological
criteria
if
the
blood
pressure
would
be
very
low.
We
have
anatomical
criteria
if
you
would
have
a
penetrating
wound
to
the
chest.
I
We
also
have
mechanism
of
injury
criteria
if
a
motor
vehicle
collision
would
exceed
40
miles
per
hour
of
impact
speed.
These
are
all
criterias
where
a
patient
would
have
to
go
to
a
designated
the
closest
designated
trauma
center.
If
the
patient
does
not
meet
this
criteria,
he
they
can
go
to
the
closest
911
receiving
center.
I
So
in
the
case
that
the
patient
would
not
meet
these
criterias,
the
ambulance
crew
would
go
to
the
closest
911
receiving
center.
They
still
kind
of
write
an
emf
station
care
record
and
the
flow
of
data
in
regards
to
trauma.
Pretty
much
ends
there.
I
If
that
patient
would
meet
a
designated
trauma
criteria
and
the
patient
would
go
to
the
closest
trauma
center
same
process
while
enrolled
electronically
on
a
tablet,
they
already
start
the
patient
care
record.
We
kind
of
want
them
to
post.
Very
often
so.
At
least
the
hospital
has
at
least
the
minimum
data
set
already
available,
and
then
finish
that
patient
care
record
as
timely
as
possible
after
the
call
is
concluded.
Of
course,
patient
care
always
comes
first,
but
we
would
like
them
to
capture
a
little
bit
data
and
already
transmit
that
to
the
hospital.
I
I
I
So
from
that
they
submit
monthly
to
our
server
the
santa
clara
trauma
registry.
I
So
an
example
for
data
is
our
trauma,
care
system,
quality
improvement
committee.
So
they
kind
of
look
at
ideas.
How
trauma
care
in
the
county
can
improve
all
three
trauma.
Centers
are
standing
members
of
this
committee,
our
agencies,
member,
and
so
we
look
at
acute
issues
in
the
system
we
kind
of
monitor
and
come
up
with
with
improvement
ideas.
So
we
kind
of
run
data
reports
out
of
the
registry
and
do
the
trauma
centers,
and
then
we
can't
also
report
back
to
the
trauma
syndrome.
They
might
report
to
us.
I
I
One
other
thing
we
do
is
so
the
american
college
of
surgeons.
They
have
a
trauma,
quality
improvement
program
and
the
ntdb
is
a
national
transportation
data
bank.
They
also
require
certain
data
set
just
to
monitor
the
trauma
quality
that
the
centers
provide
so
pretty
pretty
complex,
and
this
is
this
is
just
a
snapshot.
I
I
didn't
try
to
overload
it
just
to
kind
of
explain
this,
there's
a
lot
of
data
flows
in
in
multiple
directions
and
that
all
applies
for
stemi
and
for
stroke
in
somewhat
a
similar
way.
I
So
one
thing
that
we
we
discussed
with
jesse
in
the
group
is
kind
of
the
injury
severity
and
that
is
pretty
complex.
How
that
is
done
in
trauma
as
well.
So
one
of
the
first
things
the
registrar's
do
is
what
is
called
an
abbreviated
injury
scale,
ais
that
was
created
in
1969
by
the
association
of
advancements
for
auto
automotive
medicine,
and
what
that
score.
I
Does
it
looks
at
the
type
of
injury,
the
location
on
the
body
and
assigns
the
severity
from
one
to
six,
one
minor,
six
maximum,
just
as
a
reference
any
score
above
three,
we
kind
of
associate
with
the
mortality.
I
An
example
would
be
so
we
say
head
and
neck
was
moderately
injured.
That
gives
us
an
ais
score
of
two.
That
is
a
squared
comes
to
a
four.
I
The
chest
is
seriously
injured,
gives
us
an
ais
score
of
three
comes
square
to
nine
extremity
moderately
injured
gives
a
score
of
two
squared
comes
to
four
gives
us
a
total
of
17.
everything
over
15.
We
consider
a
major
trauma,
injury.
G
Yes
hold
on
a
second
I'm
just
going
to
end
that
control
and
go
back
here
and.
I
G
To
have
turned
on
another
version
of
there
we
go
okay,
I'm
actually
going
to
skip
the
slide
for
the
moment
and
go
to
q
a
we
might
come
back
to
this,
but
we
want
to
get
to
q
a
from
one
of
our
persons
who
have
to
leave
so
I'm
going
to
hand
it
over
to
the
council
member.
C
Great
thank
you
and
who
was
that
they
wanted
to
champion
was
that
was
that
reagan.
D
Yes,
yes,
yes,
I
apologize
to
my
fellow
task
force
members.
I
have
a
emergency
meeting
with
the
state
about
our
covert
related
rental
assistance
program,
but
I
did
before
I
leave
want
to
just
share
a
couple
thoughts
around
the
homeless
deaths
portion
of
our
presentation.
D
You
know,
I
think
there
are
some
ways
that
we
could
potentially
have
a
a
deeper
coordination
between
some
programs
that
are
already
existing
with
our
valley,
homeless,
health
care
providers,
the
city
funded
homeless
street
outreach
teams.
The
county
also
has
some
street
outreach
teams
that
have
some
some
specialties
in
drug
and
alcohol
and
behavioral
health.
D
So
I
think
we
could
do
some
coordination
there
and
maybe
have
some
targeted
outreach
and
services
in
some
of
the
areas
that
you
had
identified
on
your
map,
and
I
also
think
you
know
this
idea
of
an
education
campaign
is-
is
a
good
one
and
I'm
wondering
if
you
had
any
estimates
yet
on
what
that
might
cost.
First
question
and
then
second
question:
you
mentioned
you
applied
for
a
grant
back
in
2020,
which
I
think
I
had
noted
from.
G
Yes,
the
grant
that
we
applied
for
is
the
california
office
of
traffic
safety.
It's
a
competitive
grant
and
they
do
specifically
outreach
around
traffic
injuries
and
they
did
not
fund
it
because
of
their
own.
They
described
it
as
a
not
proven
counter-measure.
Now
we
did
receive
that
grant,
but
we
did
not.
They
gave
us
the
grants,
they
did
not
fund
that
specific
part.
G
G
You
know,
under
a
hundred
thousand
dollars,
but
I
think
that
if
we
work
with
you
know
whoever
we
can
find
who
would
be
interested
to
work
on
this
effectively
that
we
probably
could
create
a
campaign
that
fits
the
size
of
the
budget
of
the
of
the
funder
who
we
can
find.
That
would
be
interested
because
I
think
we
could
always
start
in
a
small
geography
or
you
know
and
then
sort
of
treat
it
as
a
pilot,
for
example,.
D
Yeah
I
love
pilots
and
and
starting
small
and
being
able
to
be
flexible
and
nimble,
but
jesse.
Maybe
we
could
talk
aft
after
this
meeting,
but
I
think
there's
a
way
that
we
can
use
some
existing
partnerships
to
help
in
that
educational
campaign
and
that
might
lower
some
of
the
costs.
G
Great
thank
you
for
giving
us
your
input
before
you
have
to
go.
C
Yeah,
thank
you
reagan
and
I
agree.
I
think
we
have
a
number
of
contracts
and
we
have
people
out
there
already
engaging
with
our
own
house
community.
You
know,
could
we
potentially
add
this
educational
campaign
to
some
of
that?
I
think
that's
a
good
idea.
So
now
I
just
wanted
to
falco.
Were
you
able
to
to
finish
up
the
end
of
your
presentation?
There.
G
So
there
is
a
model
that
was
created
in
san
francisco
recently,
where
in
san
francisco
their
vision,
zero
program,
their
data
is
all,
whereas
we
do
it
in
the
department
of
transportation.
Here,
their
analysis
is
done
by
their
department
of
public
health
and
their
department
of
public
health
linked
the
crash
data
from
the
police
department
in
san
francisco
with
the
trauma
hospital
data
now
san
francisco,
no,
it
needs
to
be
said,
is
in
a
perfect
overlap,
city
and
county,
and
also,
furthermore,
they
only
have
one
trauma
center.
G
G
If
you
look
at
all
injuries,
20
of
pedestrian
injuries
were
missing
and
25
of
cyclist
injuries
were
missing.
If
you
look
at
severe
injuries,
24
of
pedestrian
injuries,
39
of
cyclists
28
of
motor
vehicle
occupants.
So
why
is
this
important?
People
are
always
concerned
that
the
data
that
we
have
is
not
showing
crashes
that
they
feel
that
they
know
happened,
and
so
in
san
francisco.
G
G
So
if
san
jose
vision,
zero
and
santa
clara
county
ems
just
began
working
together,
we
only
recently
discovered
falco
and
his
colleagues,
jackie
and
ashanti,
and
we
met
with
them
about
a
week
ago
and
also
met
with
san
francisco
vision,
zero,
their
public
health
department
to
find
out
what
we
needed
to
basically
emulate
them,
and
so
we've
requested
their
data.
Sharing
agreements-
and
they
had
to
go
internally
inside
the
san
francisco
government
to
get
an
okay
to
share
them
with
us,
so
we're
currently
awaiting
that.
G
Okay,
so
that
we
can
see
their
data
sharing
agreements
and
if
that
works
out,
we
could
be
the
first
county
to
copy
that
model,
and
it's
really
a
great
opportunity
to
look
at
the
trauma
data
and
increase
our
ability
to
see
these
greater.
It's
an
equity
lens.
We
can
see
more
data,
potentially
that
may
not
be
in
the
crash
in
the
crash
data
collected
by
the
police
department.
Just
due
to
you
know
the
types
of
basically
finding
what
san
francisco
found
in
their
data.
G
It
could
be
true
here
we
don't
know
for
sure,
so
we're
excited
to
look
into
that
area
as
a
new
collaboration.
So
I'll
return.
The
mic
now
to
the
council
member.
C
All
right,
thank
you
and,
and
we're
going
to
open
it
up
now
for
questions
from
task
force.
Members
and
I
do
appreciate
all
the
presentations
and
it
was
enlightening
to
see
that
as
falco
described,
the
the
data
sharing
and
I
was
depressed
when
falco.
You
stated
sorry
for
the
background
when
you
stated
that
that
was
a
sort
of
a
shortened
version
for
us,
certainly
complicated
and-
and
I
think
what
we're
looking
for
is
an
opportunity
right
again
to
even
tap
in
more
and
so
another
right.
C
Another
spigot
of
information
wanting
to
you
know
to
be
shared,
so
I
can
see
how
this
is
not
going
to
be
easy,
but
at
the
same
time,
thank
you
jesse,
for
highlighting
how
san
francisco
has
has
done
that,
albeit
much
easier
right,
the
overlap
of
the
city
and
the
county
and
the
one
hospital.
C
That
don't
want
to
use
the
police
to
report
any
of
these
incidents
right,
and
so
it
would
make
sense
that
there's
a
lot
of
these
incidents
that
may
happen
and
occur
and
our
police
department
is
never
involved,
so
they
don't
have
a
report
on
it.
There's
none
of
that
data
would
be
there,
but
yet
they
go
to
the
hospital
right
and
then
at
the
hospital
they're
open
about
yeah.
C
I
was
in
an
accident
or
whatever
it
may
be,
and
and
so
it
actually
makes
a
lot
of
logical
sense
as
to
why
they
saw
that
that
disparity
in
in
san
francisco-
and
I
think
we
would
see
the
scene
where
we
would
sorry.
We
would
see
the
same
where,
where
we
would
likely
look
at
adjusting
our
corridors
as
well.
So
so
now
I'll
turn
it
over
to
my
colleagues
on
the
task
force
so
we'll
first
we'll
go
to
our
vice
chair,
councilmember
foley,.
D
Thank
you,
councilmember
perales,
and
actually
you
said
everything
that
I
was
going
to.
I
think
the
the
emulating,
the
sf
model,
that's
already
established,
seems
like
a
natural
direction.
For
us
to
go
on
would
really
be
helpful
for
us
to
connect
those
who
are
reporting
to
the
trauma
centers,
but
aren't,
as
indicated
talking
to
the
police
department
about
it.
So
I
I
whatever?
What?
What
can
we
do
to
further
those
efforts
along
any
any
suggestions
at
the
council
level
that
you
need?
G
I
yeah
well.
I
think
that
this
is
a
long-term
project
and
we're
excited
to
get
it
started,
but
that
we
don't
yet
know
all
of
the
ways
in
which
we'll
you
know
need
support
from
other
entities
in
government.
G
This
is
new
for
us.
I
think
it's
new
for
ems,
and
so
we
you
know,
are
looking
to
see
what
data
sharing
agreements
exist
in
city
government
and
in
county
government
and
obviously
the
ones
in
san
francisco.
So
we
you
know.
D
D
D
The
data
pieces
is
key
and
I
would
say
that
as
much
as
our
engineers
and
planners
attempt
to
make
the
connection,
it's
really
necessary
also
to
have
information
scientists,
the
it
staff
that
connect
our
systems
for
us,
and
I
I
find
that
resources
is
a
bit
limited
in
the
city
at
this
time,
but
once
we
have
our
partnerships
in
place
and
having
the
the
backend
resources
here
on
staff
would
go
a
long
ways
as
well.
D
Thank
you
lily.
I
I
appreciate
that
it's
a
long
term
goal,
but
it
it
seems
like
something
we
should
be
working
forward
to
address,
particularly
our
communities
of
concern
and
how
we
can
address
inequities
that
may
be
existing
in
our
road
in
the
safety,
pedestrian
safety
of
our
roads,
and
I
noted
in
one
of
your
slides
jesse
that
it
said
that
san
francisco
actually
changed
its
its
corridors
and
that
may
result
too
from
from
us
investigating
this
further.
D
So,
as
you
say,
data
is
important
and
it's
it
knowledge
is
power
and
it
will
help
us
be
able
to
be
more
effective
in
keeping
our
streets
safe
for
our
pedestrians,
the
other.
So
thank
you
for
that
and
thank
you
for
the
presentations
on
this.
The
other
comment
I
wanted
to
make
was
about
the
unhoused
population.
D
Helpful,
I
hadn't
seen
the
breakdown
like
that
before.
So
I
appreciate
the
analysis
and
the
data,
and
one
thing
I
took
away
is
the
that
some
of
these
deaths
of
the
unhoused
are
occurring
in
the
evening,
while
they're
wearing
dark
clothing
crossing
the
streets,
not
in
an
intersection
and
some
of
the
things
we
could
do
might
be
outreach
and
education,
but
the
other
was
suggested,
reflective
clothing.
D
So
maybe
there's
a
way
that
we
can
distribute
when
we're
distributing
trash
bags
and
other
things
to
our
homeless
encampments
and
our
unhoused
population
to
distribute
reflective
clothing
of
some
sort.
But
I
think
that's
worth
taking
a
look
at
because
that
will
allow
motorists
who
are
trying
to
pay
attention
who
have
someone
coming
across
them.
Who
is
in
dark
clothing
and
shocking
them
and,
of
course,
death
is
not
acceptable,
whether
they're
crossing
properly
or
not
crossing
properly.
D
C
Thank
you
very
much
and
just
as
a
note
on
the
time
check,
we
do
have
three
people
from
the
public
that
I'd
like
to
leave
at
least
at
six
minutes
at
the
end.
So
we've
got
about
11
minutes
for
our
comments,
so
we'll
go
over
to
john
risto.
B
Yeah
thanks
chair
perales,
what
I'm
really
just
gonna
do
a
thank
you
to
both
the
ems
team
at
the
county
and
the
county
medical
examiner.
This
was
a
terrific
presentation
of
data
that
we
didn't
have,
and
it
was
really
a
missing
link
of
the
stuff
that
we
really
needed
to
do
to
kind
of
put
it
into
human
human
needs
that
we
need
to
be
looking
at.
So
I
echo
yours
and
vice
chairs
comments
on
this
as
well.
B
C
I'll
I'll
echo
that
I
think
the
the
data
and
everything
this
has
been
a
good
start,
but
I
think
if
we
don't
end
up
with
some
sort
of
collaborative
you
know,
data
sharing
effort
in
the
end,
then
this
was
just
one
presentation
right
and
then
it
gets
lost
on
us.
So
I
I
agree
with
with
that:
okay,
we'll
go
to
lauren
ledbetter.
D
Hi
good
morning
I
didn't
get
a
chance
to
introduce
myself
in
the
beginning.
I
work
for
vta
in
the
planning
department.
Again,
thank
you
for
this
really
excellent
presentation.
I
had
a
clarifying
question
for
dr
jordan
and
then
a
question
about
some
potential
data
sources,
so
for
dr
jordan,
when
you
showed
the
slide
of,
I
think,
was
the
most
recent
data
for
homeless
fatalities.
D
You
listed
out,
you
listed
out
drugs
and
alcohol,
and
then
you
listed
out
the
traffic
related
deaths
and
the
train
and
pedestrian
a
vehicle,
and
my
question
was
with
the
with
the
drugs
and
alcohol.
Is
that
the
cause
of
death,
or
is
that
any
any
fatality
that
where
someone
where
it
was
involved,
are
they
are
they
unique
lines.
F
F
D
Sense
and
then
my
other
question
was
you
listed
trains
and
I'm
wondering
if
you've
are
some
of
those
suicides
are
some
of
the
well.
I
guess
you
wouldn't
know
right.
No,
I
would
know
that.
D
D
And
then
I
had
just
a
general
larger
question
for
all
the
panelists
and
and
even
for
everyone
in
developing
a
safety
campaign,
so
vta's
going
to
be
leading
a
countywide
safety
campaign
focusing
on
bicycle
and
pedestrian
safety.
D
One
of
the
things
we
want
to
do
is
try
to
get
at
not
necessarily
the
victims,
not
the
people
who
are
getting
injured
and
killed,
but
the
drivers-
and
I'm
wondering
just
in
general,
do
folks
have
a
sense
of
data
sources
that
we
might
be
able
to
look
to
where
we
can
understand
demographics
and
other
characteristics
of
the
drivers
that
are
being
involved.
Who
who
are
involved
in
these
fatal
and
severe
injuries
for
pedestrians
and
bicyclists,
so
that
we
can
develop
a
marketing
campaign
that
targets
these
specific
people.
G
Yes,
that
that
is
in
the
crash
data
from
the
police
department,
so
we
are
able
to
analyze
that
and
we
do
have
basically,
the
the
age
range
that
most
drivers
are
male
and
we
will
use
that.
I
think
when
we
bring
on
the
strategic
communications
consultant,
but
I
suspect
that
the
consultant
will
ask
us
for
a
deeper
dive
into
the
data
than
we've
currently
done,
and
so
we
also
for
the
campaign
that
you're
working
on
can
do
a
deeper
dive.
You
know
where
possible.
C
H
Thank
you,
council
member.
My
name
is
anand
prasad,
I'm
the
county
traffic
engineer.
This
data
is
fascinating.
The
presentation
was
excellent,
so
the
ems
data
and
the
hospital
data
are
so
useful
for
us
to
understand
the
impacts
of
these
collisions.
So
I
just
want
to
share
my
work
on.
I
did
that
about
a
few
years
ago
and
also
the
problem
with
why
the
data
doesn't
connect.
So
hopefully,
as
you
guys
go
forward,
you'll
be
able
to
help.
H
If
ems
data
can
take
the
officer
police
citation
or
the
police
report
number
if
they
can
put
that
in
their
data.
That'll
help
us
extract
that
information
due
to
hipaa
regulations,
we're
not
able
to
get
all
the
you
know
personally
identifiable
information
on
any
of
these
records
from
hospitals
or
ems,
but
if
they
could
put
the
report
number,
we
could
get
the
rest
of
the
data
and
that
will
help
us
connect
the
collision
to
the
ems
and
to
the
hospital
data.
H
And
lastly,
on
the
hospital
side,
we
have
more
bed
and
bicycle
collisions,
reported
there,
because
if
somebody
falls
while
driving
riding
their
bike
or
like
if
they
trip
and
fall
on,
a
sidewalk
police
doesn't
take
the
report
on
it
so
that
that
they
go
to
the
hospital
to
get
the
treatment,
but
when
they
go
to
the
hospital
for
the
treatment,
we
also
checked
on
the
medical
record.
Unfortunately,
the
hospital
doesn't
take
the
location
of
where
the
where
this
happened.
For
them,
that's
not
very
important.
H
So
if
they
can
actually
start
taking
that
data
in
then
we
can
actually
geocode
that
into
the
into
our
database
and
say
these
are
the
locations
that,
where
we're
having
you
know,
trip
and
fall
data,
if
there's
a
pattern
will
help
us
identify
where
the
problems
are
and
and
we'll
be
able
to
fix
it.
So
thank
you.
C
Thank
you
or
not,
yeah.
That's
really
helpful
points
that
you've
made
there
in
regards
to
injuries,
right
trip
and
fall,
and
and
really
where
that
location
is
never
captured,
and
so
that's
extremely
helpful,
and
I
do
think
that
that
would
be
great
to
to.
You
know:
try
to
gather
that
data
at
the
hospital
level
and
then
obviously
should
be
able
to
share
it
as
well.
Okay,
last
up
believe
we
have
angelique.
D
Thank
you
just
very
quickly,
because
I
know
you
have
members
of
the
public
that
want
to
speak.
I
did
want
to
say
thank
you
to
dr
jordan
for
the
presentation.
It
was
excellent
and
very
responsive
to
the
question
that
I
had
raised
earlier.
So
thank
you
for
that,
because
of
that
I'm
wondering
if
we
can
get
a
copy
of
that
presentation
and
all
the
presentations
that
were
given
today.
They
would
be
helpful
in
the
work
that
we're
doing
at
vta
as
well,
and
that's
it.
C
And
jesse,
can
you
just
answer
that.
G
Yes,
they're
posted
and
but
if
you
don't
have
it
we'll
send
to
you
again.
D
C
All
right,
thank
you
and
I
don't
see
any
other
hands,
I'm
not
seeing
any
other
physical
hands
too.
If
any
of
my
task
force
members
are
having
trouble
with
the
function,
and
so
now
we'll
go
to
public
comment
and
we
have
four
people
that
are
waiting.
I
will
turn
it
over
to,
I
believe
anna
and
we
will
give
each
public
speaker
two
minutes.
I
I
Okay
with
that,
I
would
like
to
call.
D
On
our
first
speaker,
phone
number
ending
three
five
one:
four,
zero.
B
Yourself
yeah,
I
yeah!
I
don't.
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
yeah,
okay,
yeah!
This
is
going
out
to
sjpd
if
conley's
still
on
the
on
the
line
I
want
to,
let
you
know
it's
disgraceful
what
you
guys
do
with
giving
out
traffic
tickets.
You
know
the
traffic
courts
close.
I
want
all
the
residents
to
know
this
county
that
traffic
courts
close
but
they're
handing
out
traffic
tickets
like
candy
and
it's
unfair,
because
denied
justice
is
denied
and
delayed.
Justice
is
wrong.
It's
unconstitutional,
okay.
B
You
can't
do
that
if
you
have
a
work
truck
blocking
a
sidewalk
or
a
driveway
when
they're
trying
to
put
a
roof
on
your
house,
it's
illegal
to
do
that,
because
code
enforcement
seems
to
be
coming
by
or
parking
enforcement
comes
by
giving
tickets.
You
guys
are
worried
about
a
flagpole,
that's
one
inch
tall,
but
we
got
to
worry
about
a
homeless
bum
crossing
the
street
who's
drugged
out
on
his
on
a
cell
phone
getting
hit
by
a
car.
B
That's
a
problem:
well,
it's
not
a
problem
where
I
live,
but
you
guys
seem
to
want
to
gold,
brick
and
revenue
this
district,
because
you
know
you
can
get
away
with
it,
because
if
people
don't
complain
in
this
district,
but
I
do
and
you
guys
should
be
ashamed
of
yourself-
everybody
who's.
There
should
be
ashamed
of
themselves.
We
got
a
crime
wave
going
on
people
smashing
out
your
back.
Your
backsliding
glass
door,
but
you
guys
are
there
eight
to
five
kind
of
hiding
behind
a
bush
like
it's
a
cartoon,
you
should
all
conley.
B
B
I
want
to
know-
and
I
want
you
guys
to
answer
my
questions
about
this
and
this
vision,
zero
thing,
vision,
zero,
we're
gonna
go
back
to
year,
zero
like
they
did
in
cambodia.
Do
you
guys
really
think
that
all
this
data
analytics
is
gonna
work?
You
got
you.
Could
you
guys
you
guys
must
have
a
a
connect
with
the
software
companies
for
for
contracts
or
something
for
kickbacks?
I
can't
prove
that,
but
it
seems
like
you're.
Okay.
Thank
you
now,
we'll.
D
Ronnie
you're
gonna
meet
yourself,
hello,
my
name
is
molly
macleod
and
I'm
a
mother
whose
son
was
killed
crossing
the
street
in
san
jose
at
the
intersection
of
santa
teresa
and
coddle
in
march.
19
2018
is
when
he
was
hit
and
then
he
died
of
those
injuries.
Several
months
later,
I
want
to
emphasize
the
importance
of
using
the
government
labs
on
race
and
equity
toolkits.
D
Unfortunately,
santa
clara
county's
public
health
department.
It
was
a
leader
and
the
first
one
to
take
those
on,
and
I'm
glad
that
the
city
of
san
jose's
transportation
department
is
also
involved
in
gare
and
recently
has
a
task
force
that
really
focuses
on
not
just
the
data
but
disaggregating
it,
which
we've
heard
some
of
the
information
on,
but
then
also
there's
steps
for
the
community
engagement,
part
and,
most
importantly,
getting
to
root
causes.
D
So,
for
example,
with
more
people
who
are
homeless
or
unhoused
being
harmed
and
killed,
then
sanctioned
encampments
could
get
to
the
root
cause
of.
Why
are
people
walking
along
busy
streets
near
the
freeways
etc?
D
So
I
I
don't
know
that
he
was
included
in
either
of
those
counts,
he's
also
a
black
man.
I
think
that
the
ideas
of
I
think
it's
really
important
to
find
out
what
really
works
instead
of
just
throwing
money
at
possible
outreach.
The
city
of
san
jose
has
partnered
with
the
behavioral
insights
team
before
so
that
it's
not
you're
actually
finding
out
how
efficacious
is
any
outreaches
there
also
for
people
with
disabilities
want
to
know.
D
B
Good
morning
my
name
is
paul
soto,
I'm
a
proud
member
of
councilman
paralysis.
District
I'd
like
to
extend
my
sympathies
to
senora
macleod
for
the
passing
of
your
son.
I
would
also
like
to
extend
to
you
the
pride
that
I
feel
to
share
a
city
with
someone
like
you
that
is
as
engaged
as
you
are.
B
I'd
also
like
to
extend
my
gratitude
for
the
awesome
job
in
terms
of
for
dr
jordan,
because
you
see
this
every
day
you
see
the
end
some
result
of
poverty.
Generational
trauma,
neglect
the
incompetencies
and
the
unwillingness
of
this
city
to
really
address
what
has
happened
historically
over
decades
in
this
city.
We're
seeing
the
manifestations
in
here
and
jesse
is
not
going
to
see
it
on
a
data
point.
It's
just
not
going
to
happen.
B
We
have
to
humanize
it.
I
I
would
challenge
the
fact
that
data
is
not
knowledge.
Data
is
information.
Knowledge
comes
from
a
human
being
through
experience.
All
data
is,
is
information
on
a
screen.
Knowledge
comes
from
a
human
being.
He
is
intrinsically
connected
to
a
spiritual
element
that
exists
in
the
universe,
so
that
that
I'd
like
to
make
very
very
clear
because
we
need
to
start
humanizing
these
issues.
B
I
am
one
of
this
population,
every
single
subcategory
that
you
described,
I'm
a
member
of
right.
Now,
I'm
a
bike
rider,
I'm
a
chicano,
I'm
homeless,
I'm
penniless!
I've
lived
in
generational
poverty.
I've
been
institutionalized,
I've
been
in
the
tents,
I've
been
in
the
psych
wards.
I've
been
in
your
recovery
houses,
okay,
so
we
really
need
to
start
having
a
conversation.
The
reason
why
the
reason
why
a
person
doesn't
wear
a
vest
and
the
reason
why
I
wear
dirty
clothes.
B
C
Thank
you
paul
and
our
last
speaker
will
be
blair,
beacon.
D
A
Thank
you.
There
is
a
massive
push
by
the
federal
government
to
place
new
foreign
5d
technology
in
local
neighborhoods,
along
with
a
new
smart
street
light
system
being
placed
around
the
entire
city
of
san
jose.
As
this
concludes
much
surveillance
and
data
collection,
I'm
hoping
this
can
satisfy
many
new
vision,
zero
and
neighborhood
safety
demands
for
as
much
as
I
respect.
A
I
hope
we
can
leave
an
urgency
to
inflate
the
meanings
of
these
new
data
gathering
practices
of
ksi
statistics.
I
asked
you,
please
make
honest
efforts
to
make
clear
to
make
more
open
and
clear
with
the
everyday
public
differences
between
past
and
present
uses
of
ksi
statistical
numbers
and
until
new
statistical
data
collection,
ideas,
connect
can
acclimate,
be
better
understood
and
better
accepted
in
the
next
few
years.
A
reminder,
I
am
part
of
the
efforts
of
open
public
policy
ideas.
A
A
I
feel
a
better
acceptance
and
effort
with
accountability
and
public
policies
with
the
needs
of
a
vision.
Zero
neighborhood
safety
plan
can
be
an
important
part
of
how
all
boats
can
rise
together
at
this
time
and
where
community
projects,
concepts,
thoughts
and
ideas
do
not
have
to
be
isolated
or
work
in
mutually
exclusive
terms.
To
close,
please
keep
in
mind
better
visions.
Thank
you.
Blair,.
C
And
appreciate
we're
just
over
time,
and
so
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
being
here
with
us
today
and
engaging
in
the
discussion
to
make
our
streets
safer
as
we
go
forward
with
the
task
force,
we
will
continue
to
encourage
participation
from
all
of
our
task
force.
