The San Francisco Chronicle used the city’s Sunshine Ordinance and the state Public Records act to get records of four years of 911 dispatch logs, including more than 300,000 medical calls. It used the data to calculate emergency response times and found the emergency crew failed to meet response time goals one-fourth of the time. (4/17/08)
