Votes at a glance: Police Commission approves consent items, minutes and moves to closed session
Summary
At its March 12 meeting the Police Commission approved filing a set of department reports, adopted minutes for February meetings and voted to hold closed session. The records show unanimous recorded votes where indicated; one post-closed-session disclosure vote is recorded in the transcript but the motion text is unclear in the record.
The Police Commission recorded several formal actions at its March 12 meeting.
Consent and minutes: The commission voted to approve and file the consent calendar item that included the Internal Affairs Division annual report 2024, DGO 5.05 emergency response and pursuit driving annual report (1/31/2025), the department use of non-entity camera policy quarter 3, and the SFPD and DPA SB 1421 and SB 16 monthly report for February 2025. The motion to approve and file passed with recorded votes: Commissioner Wilson Leung — yes; Commissioner Clay — yes; Commissioner Yanez — yes; President Elias — yes.
The commission then voted to adopt the minutes for the February 2025 meetings. The motion to approve the minutes passed with the same recorded votes: Leung, Clay, Yanez and President Elias voting yes.
DGO 6.07 adoption: The commission approved the revised DGO 6.07 (dog complaints) by recorded vote (details in separate article). Recorded votes on that motion were Leung — yes; Clay — yes; Yanez — yes; President Elias — yes.
Closed session: The commission voted to hold closed session under San Francisco Administrative Code section 67.1(d); the motion to hold closed session passed with recorded votes Leung — yes; Clay — yes; Yanez — yes; President Elias — yes.
Post-closed-session disclosure vote: The transcript records a subsequent vote under San Francisco Administrative Code section 67.12(a) on whether to disclose any or all discussion held in closed session. The record includes a motion to not disclose and a second, and later records four "yes" votes. The transcript's sequence of statements is unclear about which motion the final tally corresponds to; the minute record shows four affirmative votes were recorded during the item.
Ending: The meeting then adjourned. Where the transcript showed ambiguity about the exact motion text for the final disclosure vote, the commission's official minutes should be consulted for the final administrative record.
