District 7 Public Safety Summits

DISTRICT 7 PUBLIC SAFETY SUMMITS

Safety is on everyone’s mind as property crimes continue to increase citywide.  In District 7, we are co-hosting a series of Public Safety Summits in partnership with SF Police Department, the SF District Attorney’s Office, SFSAFE, and neighborhood associations to bring everyone together on a solutions-based approach to increase safety in our neighborhoods. District 7 is represented by three Police precinct stations:  Taraval, Ingleside, and Park stations.  We are organizing summits with Captains of each precinct. We encourage all residents to attend your police precinct’s summit to get informed on what the City is doing on crime prevention strategies and how you can help organize with your neighborhood.  Click here to see which station serves you.  If you have any questions or would like to get involved, please contact Jen.Low@sfgov.org.

residents at a public Participatory Budget meetingGet Ready to Get Out the Vote

Our office is in the final stretch working with departments to finalize and translate the ballot for you-our district residents -to vote on which Participatory Budgeting projects will be funded.  We will have on-line voting and in person at 3 locations.  We’ll send out an e-mail blast shortly with details as well have the link to vote in next month’s newsletter.

Participatory Budgeting (PB) is a completely community driven process where D7 residents create ideas for projects, a Neighborhood Council made up residents from different neighborhoods in District 7 reviewed and ranked proposals, and residents will vote on which projects will be funded. This year proposals were focused on pedestrian safety, neighborhood services, culture, school, education, youth and small businesses.
