SAN FRANCISCO:Supes panel OKs

A Board of Supervisors committee approved legislation Monday that would establish a one-year pilot program mandating police foot patrols in eight of the city's 10 police districts.

The board's select committee on gun and gang violence agreed to hold off on the program until January. Police Chief Heather Fong said there will be more officers available then to participate in the foot patrols.

The legislation, sponsored by Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, would require at least two officers to work a shift on foot each day in the city's Northern, Southern, Bayview, Taraval, Mission, Tenderloin, Park and Ingleside station districts. The full Board of Supervisors is scheduled to vote on the legislation next week.
