Police Commission unanimously adopts revised Department General Order 3.02

The San Francisco Police Commission voted unanimously on Jan. 21 to adopt a revised Department General Order 3.02, which updates departmental terms and definitions and will take effect on a 30‑business‑day implementation schedule.

Vice President Benedicto moved for final adoption of "BGO 3.02 with a 30 business day implementation timeframe," and Commissioner Scott seconded. The clerk recorded seven yes votes — Commissioners Tecky, Scott, Leung, Yee, Elias, Vice President Benedicto and President Clay — and the motion passed.

Commissioners made no substantive amendments during the public meeting and there was no public comment on the item. The adopted revision will be implemented administratively by the department according to the stated timeframe; the commission did not provide additional implementation direction at the Jan. 21 session.

The action was procedural and limited to adoption of the revised order; the commission's public record shows the formal vote but no further policy changes were announced in open session.
