Ordinance version 3 starts "Ordinance amending the Administrative Code to require that City departments acquiring surveillance technology, or entering into agreements to receive information from non-City owned surveillance technology". But after that it's 21 pages and I don't know if that's the version that was adopted.

then

"(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Chapter 19B, it shall be unlawful for any Department to obtain, retain, access, or use: 1) any Face Recognition Technology; or 2) any information obtained from Face Recognition Technology. A Department’s inadvertent or unintentional receipt, retention access to, or use of any information obtained from Face Recognition Technology shall not be a violation of this subsection (b), provided that: (1) The Department does not request or solicit its receipt, access to, or use of such information; and"

So asking the neighbors to use theirs does seem barred. (But then again it's 21 pages.)

Note that the section you quoted was unanimously amended to only apply to SF city-owned devices (https://sfbos.org/sites/default/files/o0286-19.pdf). To see the current version of the surveillance ordinance see Admin Code 19B.2 (https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/san_francisco/latest/s...)
