The secondary incident code 19089 - Incident on School Grounds is used to track incidents that occur inside of a school or on school grounds. The use of the secondary code is dedicated for incidents that occur on or in any public or private elementary, middle school or high school in San Francisco.

The purpose of this Notice is to provide guidelines for processing Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) or other agreements in accordance with Department General Order 3.01, Department Written Directives, Section 3.01.10 of Memoranda of Understanding (MOU). By policy, the Chief of Police retains the right to enter into a formal agreement on behalf of the SFPD. As such, all agreements covered by this policy require the review and signature of the Chief of Police. 

The Court of Appeal of the State of California recently ruled in Coalition on Homelessness v. City and County of San Francisco (CPF-18-516456) that local government agencies may no longer tow a vehicle solely on the grounds that it has five or more unpaid delinquent parking tickets, as authorized by Vehicle Code 22651 (i), without first obtaining a judicial order. 

Members shall no longer request a tow under the authority of Vehicle Code 22651 (i) without first obtaining a judicial order.
