A Message from the Public Utilities Commission:
“A Call to Conserve Water”
We didn’t get enough rain or
snow this winter – plain and simple. The San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission (SFPUC) is officially asking all customers to voluntarily reduce
water use by 10%.
Conservation is easy; turn off
the faucet while brushing teeth or soaping hands; shorten shower time; install
water-efficient showerheads and faucet aerators; replace older toilets and
clothes washers with new water-efficient models; and, fix leaks. Please
visit sfwater.org/conservation for more information. The SFPUC offers an array of
conservation assistance including free water-saving devices, free Water-Wise
evaluations for homes, apartment buildings and businesses and rebates for
water-efficient toilets and clothes washers.
Everyone needs to do their part
to help us stretch our limited Hetch Hetchy Water Supplies. Conserve today and
save for tomorrow.

What is the
A.L.E.R.T. Program?
The San Francisco Police Department has developed a
volunteer citizen disaster preparedness program. The Auxiliary Law Enforcement
Response Team (ALERT) is modeled after and works in partnership with the San
Francisco Fire Department's Neighborhood Emergency Response Team (NERT). The
ALERT program will train members of the public to assist law enforcement in
essential tasks after a major disaster. Such tasks may include: traffic
control, foot patrol of business and residential areas, and reporting criminal
activity. Volunteers must be at least 16 years of age and live, work, or attend
high school in San Francisco.
Three steps to becoming an
A.L.E.R.T. volunteer:

certification. To register for NERT training courses please visit www.sfgov.org/sfnert
2. Once NERT certified, forward a copy
of your NERT ID card to the ALERT program. sfpdalert@sfov.org
3. After clearing a basic background
check the individual is eligible to register for ALERT training.

A stolen bicycle was recovered and the thief arrested thanks to an alert victim and plainclothes work by several Ingleside officers. It all started when the victim reported her bike stolen from her garage when she was away on vacation. She had registered the bike’s serial number with the police department. A few days later she discovered an ad for her stolen bicycle on “Craig’s List” with a price of $850. She notified police and a woman Ingleside officer called the thief and arranged to buy the bicycle at the Glen Park BART Station the next day. At the appointed hour the thief showed up with the bicycle and the plainclothes officer, after confirming it was the stolen bike, signaled to other officers and together the team arrested the man for grand theft. He was taken to jail and the bicycle was returned to the happy owner. Report number: 140641879

Blk Gladys Robbery
A man walking home was robbed of his cell phone. The victim
told Ingleside Officers Chew and Lustenberger that he first saw the trio of
robbers following a woman walking towards him northbound on Gladys Street.
Suspecting the trio might be robbers; he turned around and followed the robbers
until he lost sight of them. He then turned around and started walking home
when suddenly the trio of robbers approached from behind and one of them said,
“What are you following us for?” The
robbers came closer and asked what he had in his pocket. When one of the robbers reached into the
victim’s pocket he slapped his hand away. The robber then reached into his own
waistband implying he had a gun. Fearing that he indeed had a weapon, the
victim surrendered his cell phone and the robbers then fled southbound on
Gladys Street. Report number: 140643308
