Title: Motion requesting the Legislative Analyst to analyze the San Francisco's Neighborhood Watch program administered by San Francisco Safe (originally an SFPD project) and comparisons with other Watch programs in major cities. How are Watch programs created and maintained? (It may be useful to assess existing Watch programs such as the Castro Watch Group.) How do neighborhoods apply and qualify for being designated as Watch neighborhoods? Who approves installation of neighborhood watch signs? Are there parameters that describe active vs. inactive Watch groups? Who maintains a list of active Watch groups? Do Watch groups receive public or private funding? Are there standard procedures for relationships between Watch groups and the police?
