A use-of-force report is required every time an officer uses physical force to effect an arrest and whenever an officer is injured while effecting an arrest. This data-set is broken down by type of force utilized. Note, however, that several types of force may be used in a single incident, e.g., the officer may have used a weaponless impact and also deployed a taser.

Food Establishment Businesses data set contains the Last Inspected date. If this date for the Business is newer than the most recent Inspection date in the Food Establishment Inspections data set, then the Business has a perfect score of 100.

Two sets of measures were used to score programs by staff. The
first set was Basic Program Attributes. These were first scored by the departments and
then reviewed for accuracy by the Finance and Law Department staff. These measures
captured metrics including whether a program was mandated to be provided by the
state or federal government and its level of internal cost recovery. Details of these
measures are included in Attachment A - PBB Scoring Guidelines.
The second set of measures was City Council Goals. For this set, staff rated programs
based on their relevance to the 2018 City Council goals of: Infrastructure and Facilities,
Community Development and Job Creation, Affordable Housing, Police and Community
Relations, Stabilize Finances, and Equity.
