Today, he said, there are 236 vacant buildings in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ingleside Police Station Capt.

And they help bring these other agencies on board like DBI, Planning, etc.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Archie Wong, an assistant district attorney assigned to Ingleside and Tenderloin police stations, told the committee that the District Attorney’s Office and SFPD have met about the gambling dens with several federal agencies, including the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Internal Revenue Service and a joint state-federal task force in the South Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over a half-dozen neighborhood group leaders and residents appeared at the hearing to speak about their concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joelle Kenealey, president of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/San-Francisco-Outer-Mission-Merchants-and-Residents-Association-154816581779/timeline/\">Outer Mission Merchants and Residents Association\u003c/a>, requested that the city enforce the laws already on the books.

"content": "\u003cp>Complaints from residents of the Excelsior District have prompted a Board of Supervisors hearing on how San Francisco can shut down illegal after-hours clubs and gambling dens operating there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vice in storefronts and abandoned buildings will be the subject of a hearing at the Board of Supervisors Public Safety and Neighborhood Services Committee today. District 11 Supervisor John Avalos, whose district includes the Excelsior, called for the hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This diverse, working-class neighborhood in the southern part of the city includes discount shops, liquor stores, fast-food outlets, and mom-and-pop grocery stores, as well as numerous empty storefronts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearby is \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/Pissed-Off-Petes-107356512633325/timeline/\">Pissed Off Pete's\u003c/a>, which \u003ca href=\"http://sf.eater.com/maps/san-franciscos-10-best-dive-bars-with-food\">SF Eater\u003c/a> rates as one of the city's best dive bars with food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the area is also is home to illegal drinking clubs and what police call \"gambling shacks\" -- after-hours betting operations known for their ramshackle exterior and interior appearance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this month, at 2 a.m. Saturday Oct. 3, California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control agents and San Francisco police officers raided one of the after-hours nightclubs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In what was only the second ABC raid in the city this year, the authorities entered a small storefront at 4495 Mission St. in the heart of the neighborhood's commercial corridor. Over the door and covered windows still hung the sign of the former tenant, a women's clothing shop called “\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com.au/biz/pink-spot-san-francisco-2\">Pink Spot\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After an undercover ABC agent entered the club and confirmed there were unlicensed alcohol sales, he let in the ABC agents and police to execute a warrant. Forty patrons left as the authorities detained and cited the operators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Agents at the scene seized five bottles of distilled spirits, over 1,000 containers of beer and over $800 in cash,” ABC spokesman John Carr said. “The bartender later admitted that the club normally stayed open until 6 a.m.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SFPD arrested a man on narcotics charges who allegedly tried to stash in an ice bucket “eleven packets of cocaine packaged for sale,\" according to a police report. “A search of the suspect’s clothing revealed packets of small denominations of currency totaling more than $1,000.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pink Spot had been serving as a place for patrons of law-abiding bars in the area who did not want to call it quits after last call at 2 a.m. Its clientele was mainly immigrants from south of the border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC had been tipped off by neighbors, receiving complaints regarding loud music, gambling and possible illegal drug activity at the location, and began an investigation, Carr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officers at the nearby Ingleside Police Station also knew about the illegal nightclub.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a police incident report obtained by KQED, back in February a man had waved down police officers patrolling Mission Street in the early-morning hours and said that a brawl had occurred inside. Two officers went to the storefront and heard adult voices and music. After they knocked several times, the music stopped, but they were unable to enter and investigate further.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[scribd id=285231389 key=key-eOFqMPohKFgaUc8thwV6 mode=scroll]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Establishing probable cause, that is obtaining enough evidence to get a warrant, is the most difficult aspect of eliminating illegal activities in storefronts, according to Ingleside Police Station Capt. Joseph McFadden. Without one, law enforcement has to rely on the city attorney to pursue legal action against the property owner. Even then, most of the crimes -- gambling or alcohol sales -- are misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pete Whitcomb, owner of Pissed Off Pete's, said the Pink Spot was not a problem for his business. \"It opens after my bar closes,\" Whitcomb said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are other issues. \"I live a block away and I don't like the riff-raff,\" Whitcomb said. \"It's pretty bad. Our cars are being broken into. There's always something.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pop-Up Clubs Hard to Track\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pink Spot nightclub is but one of 10 or so illegal businesses operating in storefronts in his district, McFadden said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They're mobile, they're transitory. So if we put heat on them, if we were to send officers by, they're going to shut that one down and move to another location really quickly,” McFadden said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Remember, they are run nightly. So if they believe the cops are on to them, they are going to shut down business, move the machines to another location within 24 hours. So that's why it takes time to surveil them and gather the evidence we need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, on the same block as the Pink Spot, police investigated a shooting at a cellphone store. Officers discovered the store had a back room where there were a dozen gambling machines. SFPD did not provide an incident report by press time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not long ago that a half-dozen \u003ca href=\"http://archives.sfexaminer.com/sanfrancisco/complaints-mounting-against-excelsior-internet-sweepstakes-cafes-where-gambling-proliferates/Content?oid=2617026\">Internet cafes\u003c/a> were also open in the neighborhood, where patrons could gamble by way of sweepstakes games through a legal loophole in California law. The City Attorney’s Office was able to shut down the largest offender, Net Stop. Subsequent changes in state law closed the loophole and the other cafes shut down as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.eagsf.org/\">Excelsior Action Group\u003c/a>, a government-funded nonprofit dedicated to enhancing the neighborhood's commercial corridor, recently performed its quarterly storefront survey and found 38 empty, non-performing or for-sale spaces, up two from the previous survey, on the 1.4-mile stretch of Mission Street it works on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Pink Spot has been a problem for some time,” EAG Executive Director Stephanie Cajina said. “We have been doing corridor walks -- the city attorney, police captains, Outer Mission Merchants and Residents Association and Excelsior Outer Mission Merchants -- and we heard complaints from neighboring bars and other stores.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neighbors are already saying they again hear music at the Pink Spot. And there are reports of another after-hours club nearby on Ocean Avenue. Both Cajina and McFadden say they have seen these underground operations advertising on Yelp and Craigslist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At today's hearing, representatives from the Police Department, building inspection, city attorney, district attorney, Public Works and Planning Departments will be on hand to speak about the current state of affairs and answer questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aside from looking at coordination, successes and planning among city departments, Avalos said, the hearing should show “the rest of City Hall what is happening here in our district, and they need to be aware of what the conditions are for our neighborhoods. And that's something that I deal with every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avalos said: “How do we recognize the particular, unique needs that we have in this district when much of City Hall is captivated by other district issues, other neighborhood issues where there is a lot of wealth and money being moved around and used to shape what those neighborhoods look like versus ours?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Note: Alexander Mullaney will be covering the hearing for KQED.

Over the door and covered windows still hung the sign of the former tenant, a women's clothing shop called “\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com.au/biz/pink-spot-san-francisco-2\">Pink Spot\u003c/a>.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After an undercover ABC agent entered the club and confirmed there were unlicensed alcohol sales, he let in the ABC agents and police to execute a warrant. Forty patrons left as the authorities detained and cited the operators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Agents at the scene seized five bottles of distilled spirits, over 1,000 containers of beer and over $800 in cash,” ABC spokesman John Carr said. “The bartender later admitted that the club normally stayed open until 6 a.m.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SFPD arrested a man on narcotics charges who allegedly tried to stash in an ice bucket “eleven packets of cocaine packaged for sale,\" according to a police report. “A search of the suspect’s clothing revealed packets of small denominations of currency totaling more than $1,000.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pink Spot had been serving as a place for patrons of law-abiding bars in the area who did not want to call it quits after last call at 2 a.m. Its clientele was mainly immigrants from south of the border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC had been tipped off by neighbors, receiving complaints regarding loud music, gambling and possible illegal drug activity at the location, and began an investigation, Carr said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officers at the nearby Ingleside Police Station also knew about the illegal nightclub.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a police incident report obtained by KQED, back in February a man had waved down police officers patrolling Mission Street in the early-morning hours and said that a brawl had occurred inside. Two officers went to the storefront and heard adult voices and music. After they knocked several times, the music stopped, but they were unable to enter and investigate further.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003ciframe\n class=\"scribd_iframe_embed\"\n src=\"//www.scribd.com/embeds/285231389/content?start_page=1&view_mode=&access_key=key-eOFqMPohKFgaUc8thwV6\"\n title=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/285231389\"\n data-auto-height=\"true\" scrolling=\"no\" id=\"scribd_285231389\"\n width=\"100%\" height=\"500\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\n \u003ca class=\"utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__scribdShortcode__scribd_footer\"\n href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/285231389\"\n target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View this document on Scribd\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Establishing probable cause, that is obtaining enough evidence to get a warrant, is the most difficult aspect of eliminating illegal activities in storefronts, according to Ingleside Police Station Capt. Joseph McFadden. Without one, law enforcement has to rely on the city attorney to pursue legal action against the property owner. Even then, most of the crimes -- gambling or alcohol sales -- are misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pete Whitcomb, owner of Pissed Off Pete's, said the Pink Spot was not a problem for his business. \"It opens after my bar closes,\" Whitcomb said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are other issues. \"I live a block away and I don't like the riff-raff,\" Whitcomb said. \"It's pretty bad. Our cars are being broken into. There's always something.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pop-Up Clubs Hard to Track\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Pink Spot nightclub is but one of 10 or so illegal businesses operating in storefronts in his district, McFadden said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They're mobile, they're transitory. So if we put heat on them, if we were to send officers by, they're going to shut that one down and move to another location really quickly,” McFadden said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Remember, they are run nightly. So if they believe the cops are on to them, they are going to shut down business, move the machines to another location within 24 hours. So that's why it takes time to surveil them and gather the evidence we need.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, on the same block as the Pink Spot, police investigated a shooting at a cellphone store. Officers discovered the store had a back room where there were a dozen gambling machines. SFPD did not provide an incident report by press time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not long ago that a half-dozen \u003ca href=\"http://archives.sfexaminer.com/sanfrancisco/complaints-mounting-against-excelsior-internet-sweepstakes-cafes-where-gambling-proliferates/Content?oid=2617026\">Internet cafes\u003c/a> were also open in the neighborhood, where patrons could gamble by way of sweepstakes games through a legal loophole in California law. The City Attorney’s Office was able to shut down the largest offender, Net Stop. Subsequent changes in state law closed the loophole and the other cafes shut down as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.eagsf.org/\">Excelsior Action Group\u003c/a>, a government-funded nonprofit dedicated to enhancing the neighborhood's commercial corridor, recently performed its quarterly storefront survey and found 38 empty, non-performing or for-sale spaces, up two from the previous survey, on the 1.4-mile stretch of Mission Street it works on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Pink Spot has been a problem for some time,” EAG Executive Director Stephanie Cajina said. “We have been doing corridor walks -- the city attorney, police captains, Outer Mission Merchants and Residents Association and Excelsior Outer Mission Merchants -- and we heard complaints from neighboring bars and other stores.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neighbors are already saying they again hear music at the Pink Spot. And there are reports of another after-hours club nearby on Ocean Avenue. Both Cajina and McFadden say they have seen these underground operations advertising on Yelp and Craigslist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At today's hearing, representatives from the Police Department, building inspection, city attorney, district attorney, Public Works and Planning Departments will be on hand to speak about the current state of affairs and answer questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aside from looking at coordination, successes and planning among city departments, Avalos said, the hearing should show “the rest of City Hall what is happening here in our district, and they need to be aware of what the conditions are for our neighborhoods. And that's something that I deal with every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Avalos said: “How do we recognize the particular, unique needs that we have in this district when much of City Hall is captivated by other district issues, other neighborhood issues where there is a lot of wealth and money being moved around and used to shape what those neighborhoods look like versus ours?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Then DHR, the Police Department and the union will begin a meet-and-confer process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We could be done by early 2016,\" Halloran said, but he added a caveat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Key-element-of-SF-police-body-camera-police-6481624.php\" target=\"_blank\">great controversy\u003c/a> over one provision in SFPD's draft policy, which currently would allow officers to view video footage of a critical incident, like an officer-involved shooting, before being interviewed by internal affairs investigators. Some stakeholder groups that helped create the draft, including the city's Public Defender's Office, want that point changed. They argue that it extends a double standard to police who could become criminal suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the union is adamant about keeping that policy point the way it is. Halloran said officers involved in shootings would stop making voluntary statements to internal affairs investigators if they are not allowed to view footage before interviews.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If in fact the draft policy does not allow members to view the footage, I guarantee I will not be signing off on that policy,\" he said, \"and it will end up in front of an arbitrator.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives from 11 companies attended Wednesday's meeting.

That video would be retained indefinitely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Police Officers Association President Martin Halloran told KQED in a phone interview that the data retention is going to end up costing the city a lot more than it currently expects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The city is going to find out, like other cities have found out, the cost of the body cameras -- not so much for the equipment, but for the storage of the footage -- is going to be astronomical,\" he said, referring to San Francisco's current $6 million budget for the program over the next two years. \"That's not going to be enough money for the policy that they want.\"\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\nSFPD Deputy Chief Mikail Ali told the vendors that the department hopes to finalize its policy by early 2016. Halloran said the Police Commission will forward its final version to the city's Department of Human Resources. Then DHR, the Police Department and the union will begin a meet-and-confer process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We could be done by early 2016,\" Halloran said, but he added a caveat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/crime/article/Key-element-of-SF-police-body-camera-police-6481624.php\" target=\"_blank\">great controversy\u003c/a> over one provision in SFPD's draft policy, which currently would allow officers to view video footage of a critical incident, like an officer-involved shooting, before being interviewed by internal affairs investigators. Some stakeholder groups that helped create the draft, including the city's Public Defender's Office, want that point changed. They argue that it extends a double standard to police who could become criminal suspects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the union is adamant about keeping that policy point the way it is. Halloran said officers involved in shootings would stop making voluntary statements to internal affairs investigators if they are not allowed to view footage before interviews.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If in fact the draft policy does not allow members to view the footage, I guarantee I will not be signing off on that policy,\" he said, \"and it will end up in front of an arbitrator.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives from 11 companies attended Wednesday's meeting. Neither Taser International nor Vievu, two of the biggest companies in the market, attended the conference.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
