Latest status: APPROVED by Mayor
Administrative Code - Surveillance Technology Policy for Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco
Current state
City assets were previously unprotected, liability and risk for the City were higher, public access to FAMSF's art collection and exhibitions was less assured.
Proposed changes
FAMSF to use a camera management and video monitoring system to protect city assets, reduce liability and risk for the City, assure public access to FAMSF's art collection and exhibitions.
Impact
Increased protection for City assets, reduced overall liability and risk for the City, ensured public access to FAMSF's unique art collection and world-class exhibitions, and no discriminatory impacts or disparities projected.
Rationale
The benefits of the camera management and video monitoring system outweigh its costs. The technology aims to protect assets, reduce liability, assure public access to art collections, and safeguard civil liberties without discrimination.
Approval process
Two public hearings were conducted by COIT and its advisory board, after which COIT recommended the adoption of FAMSF's Surveillance Technology Policy.
Accountability
The ordinance becomes effective 30 days after enactment, which is upon the Mayor's signature, a non-signature within ten days, or a Board override of a mayoral veto.
