A
Policies,
I'm
erica
mcalpin,
an
instructor
at
osu,
cascades
and
the
director
of
the
dei
laboratory.
I
am
a
third
party
moderator
that
was
asked
to
facilitate
this
important
dialogue
as
a
member
of
this
community.
I'm
fully
aware
of
the
importance
of
this
topic
and
care
deeply
about
the
outcomes
that
will
happen
as
a
result
of
today.
A
A
A
A
Please
stop,
and
let
us
know
so
that
we
can
accurately
record
your
thoughts.
We
are
also
recording
today's
session
to
make
sure
your
thoughts
are
captured.
In
addition,
there
is
someone
else
behind
the
scenes
notating.
The
common
themes
that
arise
in
today's
conversation,
please
be
mindful
that
interpreted
interpreters
are
interpreting
for
our
spanish-speaking
community
members.
So
please
speak
slowly.
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
A
B
Thanks
for
thanks
for
doing
this,
I
really
appreciate
it.
I
want
to
I'm
going
to
basically
my
comments
going
to
be
largely
focused
on
number
one.
I
know
that
eric
king
city
manager
and
chief
of
police,
mike
krantz,
are
talking
about
revising
the
citizens
advisory
board
that
we
have
here
in
bend
a
police
advisory
board
that
I
would
suggest
that
99
of
the
people
in
this
community
don't
actually
know
exist
that
citizen
advisory
board,
as
it's
established
right
now,
is
not
an
opportunity
for
people
to
express
complaints.
B
B
B
I
would
be
more
than
happy
to
supply
the
city
manager
and
the
city,
the
police,
chief,
any
links
and
any
additional
information
about
what
a
a
strong
oversight
board
could
be
here
in
our
community,
and
I
think
that,
without
that,
we're
really
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
much
of
anything
else
in
terms
of
trying
to
do
what
I
think
we
need
is
community
control.
So
I
see
I
got
a
minute
and
a
half
left.
I
got
nothing
more
to
say.
I'm.
C
A
A
D
A
D
Who's
listening,
it's
weird
to
be
floating
around
in
a
computer
like
this
and
not
see
who
I'm
talking
to.
I
want
to
address
the
second
two
questions.
Community
policing
is
not
a
new
concept,
and
it's
about
time
that
ben
got
on
board.
31
years
ago,
the
city
of
eugene
developed
an
innovative
community-based
public
safety
system
to
provide
mental
health.
D
First
response
for
crises
involving
mental
illness,
homelessness
and
addiction,
whiteboard
clinic
launched
cahoots,
which
stands
for
crisis
assistance,
helping
out
in
the
streets
as
a
community
policing
initiative
in
1989
the
program
mobilizes
two-person
teams
consisting
of
a
medic
a
nurse
paramedic
or
emt,
and
a
crisis
worker
who
has
substantial
training
and
experience
in
the
mental
health
field.
The
cahoots
teams
deal
with
a
wide
range
of
mental
health,
related
crises,
including
conflict
resolution,
welfare
checks,
substance,
abuse,
suicide
threats
and
more
relying
on
trauma-informed,
de-escalation
and
harm
reduction
techniques.
D
D
D
Last
year,
out
of
roughly
24
000
cahoots
calls,
police
backup
was
requested
only
150
times
less
than
one
percent.
The
savings
are
considerable.
The
cahoots
program
is
about
2.1
million
dollars
annually,
or
the
combined
annual
budgets
for
the
eugene
and
springfield
police
departments
are
90
million
dollars
in
2017,
the
cahoots
team
answered
17
percent
of
eugene
police
department's
overall
call
volume
and
in
a
2020
interview
on
npr
ben
brubacher,
a
clinic
coordinator
states
that
cahoots
now
responds
to
over
20
percent
of
calls.
D
D
F
F
Okay,
anyway,
she
was
panicking
and
bouncing
around
on
the
bed.
Her
boyfriend
was
trying
to
calm
her
down
and
we
were
trying
to
calm
her
down
and
at
one
point
she
had
a
knife,
in
her
hand,
was
opening
and
closing
it,
and
I
thought
I
pulled
out
my
phone.
I
was
going
to
call
the
police
and
they
convinced
me
not
to
call
the
police,
but
I
thought
well
what
would
have
happened
if
the
police
had
come?
F
A
G
Yeah
hi,
I
I'd
like
to
speak
to
something
actually
personally
that
happened
to
me
at
bend
november
25th
of
2019.
I
was
actually
arrested
by
the
bend
police
outside
of
tin
barrel
on
the
east
side.
I
walked
in
there
with
two
hispanic
gentlemen.
Actually,
I
wrote
a
whole
website.
It's
called
tin
barrel,
hates
trump
supporters
dot
info.
If
anybody
wants
to
see
it,
it
explains
everything.
G
So
I
walk
in
there.
My
nine-year-old
he
put
a
trump
sticker
on
my
you
know
on
my
sweatshirt,
so
I
walked
in
with
two
hispanic
guys.
I
just
literally
had
just
met
them.
I
pulled
out
a
chair
to
sit
down
and
bump
into
someone
this
individual
who
worked
there
that
I
bumped
into.
As
I
tried
to
turn
around
and
apologize.
G
And
you
know,
as
I
tried
to
turn
around
and
apologize,
they
looked
at
me
very
smugly
and
you
know-
and
they
said
well,
excuse
me,
and
so
I
I
said
well,
you
know
oops
sorry,
I
touched
your
butt
or
something
right,
so
I
bumped
into
this
individual,
so
they
go
around
and
they're
lying
to
their.
They
work
there
so
they're
going
around
and
they're
literally
lying
to
everybody
that
I
broke
this
individual
like
this
is
no
joke.
G
G
So
I'm
sitting
at
the
bar,
as
I'm
sitting
at
the
bar
waiting
looking
at
my
phone
trying
to
give
ample
time
for
them
to
leave.
So
they
don't
follow
me
home
to
where
my
wife
and
children
are.
I
get
a
hand
forced
in
my
face
by
allison
she's,
a
manager
at
tim,
barrow
telling
me.
I
touch
someone
inappropriately
lying
stay.
Kick
me
out,
there's
guys
outside.
I'm
scared.
I
think
I'm
gonna
get
jumped
because
I
have
a
trump
sticker
on
or
something
I'm
trying
not
to
leave.
G
G
You
know
certain
individuals
that
these
microbrews
they
have
they're
like
the
pope,
with
the
infallible
truth,
like
everything
that
they
say
is
infallible
that
that's
my
issue
is
that
how
do
you
ensure
that
they
just
come
out
and
want
to
slap
handcuffs
on
someone
and
literally
put
them
in
jail
immediately?
It's
crazy
that
happened
to
me.
This
is
real.
A
H
I
just
came
to
check
out
what's
going
on
here
and
I
don't
think
you
know
this
whole
process,
that's
set
up
kind
of
seems
to
make
things
more
complicated
than
it
needs
to
be.
I
think
in
bend.
We
just
don't
want
to
have
an
people
killed
or
brutalized
by
the
police
when
with
implicit
bias
or
otherwise,
and
that's
what
people
are
asking
for
and
it
shouldn't
be
contentious.
A
I
Okay,
thank
you,
I'm
not
sure,
I'm
a
little
confused
about
the
format.
Maybe
I
was
about
five
minutes
late,
so
I
was
hoping,
maybe
erica
if
you
could
perhaps
repeat
kind
of
how
the
next
few
hours
are
going
to
be
structured.
If
this
is
a
listening
session
for
the
whole
period
or
kind
of
yeah,
I'm
just
confused,
I
I
want
to
provide
comment,
but
I'm
I
would
like
to
understand
the
whole
plan
better
sure
sure.
A
A
This
is
not
a
time
when
questions
can
be
answered,
but
if
you
have
them,
please
ask,
and
they
will
be
noted.
The
goal
of
this
event
for
the
entire
time
is
to
record
community
thoughts
and
perspectives
for
the
purposes
of
providing
that
information
to
our
city
leaders.
In
a
report
in
december,
you
will
be
able
to
see
your
comments
being
recorded
in
real
time
if
something
is
captured
in
a
way
that
you
did
not
intend.
A
A
A
I
Thanks
erica
sure,
so
my
interest
is,
I
would
like
to
echo
moe's
comments
and
michael
at
the
beginning.
I
really
appreciate
their
comments
and
agree
with
them.
What
I
would
add
to
it
has
to
do
with
accountability
and
ensuring
there's
third
party
without
any
conflict
of
interest
oversight.
Whenever
there's
any
incidents-
or
you
know
credible.
I
A
H
H
H
H
E
They
push
it
off
on
the
neighborhoods.
You
know
we
are
supposed
to
turn
our
neighbors
in,
and
many
of
us
have
called,
and
we
will
call
and
it'll
happen
again
in
on
new
year's
two
or
three
nights
before
new
year's
eve,
you'll,
start
hearing
the
fireworks
and
see
them
go
off.
I
can
see
them
from
my
window
and
then
again
in
the
summer,
not
just
the
fourth
of
july,
but
days
before
and
after,
and
we
need
a
stronger
message
from
police
and
fire
and
the
city
council
that
this
is
reckless
behavior.
G
Ron
yeah,
I
just
wanted
to
say
something
regarding
maui's
comment-
is
that
I
don't
think
it's
not
it's
not
just
necessarily
police
brutality.
It's
the
idea
that
I
have
I've
been
in
several
states.
I
served
in
the
military.
I've
worked
in
iet
for
20
years.
I've
been
so
you
know
all
over
and
I've
never
changed.
I've
only
been
treated
like
this
and
been
it's
crazy.
G
Okay,
I
get
this
the
feeling
that
ben
pd
somehow
or
it's
like
they
go
into
a
back
room
before
they
go
on
their
beats
or
something,
and
you
know
the
chief
or
whoever
it
is.
You
know
you
know
whoever
their
supervisors
are
or
whatever
are
telling
them.
You
know
you
got
to
have
so
many
arrests.
I
don't
know
if
there's
a
quote
or
what
but
I've
been
arrested
here.
Okay,
it's
like
they
find
it
so
easily
to
slap
handcuffs
on
people.
G
That's
a
huge
problem
and
it's
nuts,
I'm
not
a
violent
person,
but
to
be
mistreated
like
that
to
be
treated
like
you're,
some
sort
of
pariah
too.
You
know
I
can't
even
feed
my
kids
right
now
because
of
this
arrest
back
in
november.
You
understand
I'm
white
by
the
way
moe,
and
I
don't
think
that
this
should
be
a
racial
issue.
I
don't
like
to
be
thrown
in
jail
either.
I
am
of
european
descent,
so
I
don't
want
to
turn
this
into
some
big
race
thing.
It's
a
police
thing.
G
So,
let's
keep
it
at
that
all
right,
yeah
I
just
I
I
find
that
they
just
they
walk
out
and
they're,
like
you
know,
I'm
gonna
arrest
people
today,
it's
like
it's
like
that's
the
first
thing
in
their
mind.
It's
like
we're,
gonna
go
ahead
and
toss
people
in
jail,
and
it's
gonna
be
a
great
day.
It's
like
does
it
really
have
to
end
out.
Does
that
really
have
to
be
the
outcome?
Every
single
time
is
that
I
mean,
and
that
that's
just
that's
just
my
take
on
this.
G
It's
I
get
the
feeling
that
the
ben
pd
are
just
they
have
this.
They
got
like
this.
You
know
desire
to
to
see
how
many,
how
much
liberty
they
can
remove
from
the
citizens
and
bend.
I
mean
it's
crazy.
Like
I
said
what
happened
to
me
last
year,
based
on
lies,
it's
crazy!
It's
crazy!
I
have
kids,
I
can't
feed
them
because
of
this.
You,
google,
my
name
ron
rasa.
G
If
you
can
even
put
my
last
name
there,
I
probably
didn't
put
it
ron
ratzleff
r-a-t-z-l-a-f-f,
because
I
want
everybody
to
know
that
and
I
have
a
trial
coming
up
and
the
rage
that
I
feel
right
now
at
the
ben
p.d
and
john
hummel
with
all
this
garbage,
it's
to
speak
like
to
even
talk
right
now.
It's
like
it's
difficult
for
me
because
I'm
so
angry
what
happened
to
me
so
yeah.
I
think
something
has
to
be
done,
something
that
desperately
has
to
be
done
with
the
bin
pd.
G
And
maybe
it's
a
that's
a
mindset.
It's
a
culture.
It's
a
subculture!
You
know
that's
one
thing
I
learned
in
sociology
in
my
undergraduate
studies:
it's
a
subculture,
it's
this
idea
that
that
you
know
it's
us
versus
them
type
mentality.
That's
got
to
change,
I'm
not
a
bad
guy,
but
to
be
treated
like
that
was
horrible.
F
K
Hello,
thank
you.
Hi
hi.
I've
been
at
several
of
the
protests
that
have
happened
downtown
in
bend
and
a
couple
in
prineville
as
well,
and
what
I've
noticed
from
the
ben
petey
in
particular
is
that
there
seems
to
be
a
a
sense
that
they
must
protect
the
counter
protesters
that
come,
those
that
might
support
donald
trump
and,
in
general,
the
black
lives
matter.
Folks,
do
not
get
the
same
respect
that
the
counter-protesters
do.
K
I
think
that
could
be
in
large
part
because
they
don't
like
the
way
that
the
black
lives
matter
protesters
are
speaking,
but
I
think
it's
very
important
that
as
white
people,
especially
because
bend
is
so
predominantly
white,
I
myself
am
white
that
we
need
to
remind
ourselves
that
the
way
that
someone
expresses
themselves
is
not
a
a
reason
to
treat
them
without
dignity.
They
deserve
the
same
basic
respect
and
the
officers
should
show
that
to
them.
K
A
L
Good
morning
erica,
thank
you
I'm
good
morning,
I'm.
I
think
I
want
to
speak
to
number
four.
The
expectations
of
city
council
involvement
in
policing
policies,
and
I
will
start
by
saying
ben
city
council
goals-
need
to
have
a
clear,
transparent
implementation
plan
with
measurable
objectives,
timelines
and
benchmarks.
L
We're
not
looking
for
people
of
color
we're
very
happy
to
have
a
slate
of
candidates
that
just
look
like
all
the
rest
of
us
here.
So
those
are
my
comments
and
then
I
will
underscore
what
joette
storm
said
about
fireworks
in
bend.
It
is
a
problem
that
needs
to
be
addressed
by
the
city
and
by
the
police
department
in
bend
and
not
put
back
on
the
neighborhoods.
M
Hi,
first
of
all,
I
am
two
years
into
living
here
in
bend.
I
just
want
to
say
quickly
that
I
agree
with
beth
about
the
police
force
needing
to
reflect
our
growing
population.
Absolutely
my
concern
is,
I
was
in
town
recently
and
walked
up
to
two
policemen
who
were
sitting
having
a
coffee
asked
them.
If
they
had
a
moment
they
did.
M
M
N
A
H
N
I
call
for
our
police
to
be
trained
extensively
in
de-escalation
tactics
and
for
the
entire
department,
including
chief
krantz,
to
participate
in
ongoing
intensive
anti-racist
training
to
begin
to
counter
the
centuries-long
history
of
racist
behavior
of
police.
There
must
be
no
more
killings
of
our
bipoc
community
members
at
the
hands
of
police.
N
In
terms
of
accountability.
I
am
calling
in
to
support
an
independent
police
oversight
board
made
up
of
a
diverse
group
of
residents
from
bend.
I
also
request
that
bend
implement
a
model
like
the
cahoots
model
in
eugene,
where
staff
such
as
medics,
nurses
and
mental
health
professionals
are
sent
out
to
calls
when
appropriate.
N
The
evidence
of
success
from
this
model
is
substantial
and
it
is
time
for
a
new
model
that
is
less
dependent
on
weapons
and
less
likely
to
become
violent.
Additionally,
I
assert
the
importance
that
then
police
do
not
cooperate
with
ice.
I
value
the
lives
and
contributions
of
our
undocumented
community
members.
N
G
Just
wanted
to
peek
back
off
of
one
comment.
First
of
all,
I
know
the
proud
boys
personally
actually
and
the
adl
and
the
splc
you
can
believe
whatever
you
want,
they're,
not
the
reason
why
the
ben
police
told
you
that
you
don't
have
to
worry
about
them
is
because
you
don't
they
were
over.
They
were
busy
up
north
right.
You
know
salem,
the
columbia
river
pb,
the
the
the
pdx
bb
they're
up
north
and
they're,
more
they're,
not
you
know
they
mention
luke
richter
and
they're.
Like
no.
It's
no
big
deal.
G
You
know
central
oregon,
whatever
they're
more
concentrated
on
heavy.
You
know
antifa
presence
and
so
anyways.
You
know
I
I
it
sounds
like
too
many
folk
may
be
listening
to
cnn
here
or
something,
but
these
people
aren't
not
at
all
what
they're
made
out
to
be
falsely
and
so
yeah.
They
never
came
to
central
oregon
for
the
last
trump
rally
they
like.
I
even
talked
to
him
about
it
and
they
said
no.
It's
no
big
deal.
G
They're
gonna
stay
in
the
salem
portland
area
because
of
they're
over
there
for
like
rallies
and
flag
waving
events,
and
things
like
that
and
and
for
back
to
blue.
You
know
those
types
of
events,
so
they're,
not
real
they're,
not
really
concentrated
on
central
oregon
right
now.
Only
because
it's
not
you
know
they're
trying
to
create
this
equilibrium
there
you
know
with
antifa
there.
We
don't
have
a
lot
of
people
burning
down
buildings
here
in
central
oregon,
like
they
are
up
north.
G
You
know
racist
white
supremacists
that
they're
made
out
to
be
it's
pretty
bad,
that
in
a
society
today
that
anybody
can
just
be
falsely
labeled
like
that
and
and
everybody
just
takes
the
bait.
It's
horrible.
I've
been
called
that
myself
to
my
face.
It's
pretty
bad!
It's
horrible
experience.
You
know
I'm
from
fresno,
california.
I
grew
up
in
predominant,
latino,
neighborhoods
and
I've
had
you
know
a
mix
of
friends,
my
whole
life.
I
don't
have
a
racist
bone
in
my
body
and
so
anyways.
G
C
Okay,
just
since
that
last
comment
called
me
out
by
my
first
and
last
name,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
this
meeting
is
talking
about
policing
and
not
the
fact
that
a
known
hate
group
that
has
proven
to
be
violent,
just
being
nice
to
them.
I
hope
that
this
gets
taken
seriously
about
being
something
about
the
police
and
not
people's
personal
feelings
towards
groups
that
they
don't
see
are
violent,
but
that
the
rest
of
the
country
sees
as
violent.
H
H
I
went
to
your
website
10
barrel,
hates
trump
supporters.info,
and
I
appreciate
that
you
went
through
a
really
tough
time.
However,
the
protesters
in
portland
are
protesting
just
to
remind
everybody,
they're
protesting,
because
portland
police
have
shocked
and
killed
many
unarmed
bypac
community
members.
H
That's
why
they're
out
there
asking
for
justice,
so
I
just
wanted
to
remind
you
of
that
and
yeah.
I
I
don't
think
this
conversation
needs
to
devolve
into
you,
know
a
lot
of
different
personal
stories
and
which
side
is
who
on
which
side
is
anyone
on,
but
there
is
a
very
real
threat
to
our
most
vulnerable
community
members,
not
only
from
our
police
force,
but
also
from
white
to
premises.
H
J
H
B
B
I
would
just
like
to
stress
that.
Excuse
me.
I
would
just
like
to
really
stress
that
ben's
city
council,
in
my
opinion,
really
needs
to
take
a
strong,
a
stronger
role
in
figuring
out
what
to
do
with
the
with
all
of
the
comments
that
people
have
made,
that
beth
and
the
maui
and
other
people
and
luke
and
other
people
in
the
community
have
made
about
their.
B
B
A
H
I,
for
I
forgot
to
say
that
I
also
hope
that
all
the
comments
that
have
come
into
city
council
either
through
emails
to
the
mayor
and
it
you
know,
if
possible,
even
the
emails
that
john
hummel
has
received
around
feedback
on
the
police.
I
hope
that
these
will
be
included
in
this
process,
because
you
know
people.
A
I
Hi
again,
this
is
really.
This
will
be
really
brief.
The
other
comment
that
I
wanted
to
add
was
that,
along
the
lines
I
forget,
somebody
else
made
a
comment
about
observing
the
police
at
protests
having
a
bit
of
a
us
versus
them
mentality
and
maybe
feeling
more
personally
committed
to
protecting
white
nationalist
counter
protesters
instead
of
black
lives
matter.
I
E
Hello
again
after
listening
to
my
neighbors
speak
today,
I
remember
that
someone
said
that
the
term
police
is
often
very
emotional-lading
in
that.
Maybe
we
should
re-characterize
the
department
as
public
safety
and
then
incorporate
the
principles
of
community
policing
that
the
gentleman
spoke
about
earlier,
where
we
would
include
mental
health
professionals
and
other
kinds
of
counselors
mediators.
E
J
M
M
But
that
is
more
my
goal
to
see
the
police
restructured,
like
somebody
else
mentioned
earlier,
and
what
they
told
me
is
that
they
do
send
out
an
emt
and
an
lcsw
licensed
clinical
social
worker
on
as
many
calls
as
possible,
so
that
situations
do
not
get
escalated,
that
they
don't
always
warrant
using
a
gun
to
de-escalate
a
situation,
and
I
was
very
happy
to
hear
that
and
I
I
can't
remember,
I
think
it's
camden
new
jersey
that
started.
That
was
one
of
the
first
cities
in
the
country
that
adopted
that
kind
of
policing.
M
And
if
it's
true,
that
they
are
doing
that
here
in
bend-
and
I
can't
imagine
he
would
lie
to
me-
or
at
least
I
hope
not.
Then
then,
I
want
to
applaud
that,
because
that's
really
a
positive
direction
that
we
should
be
going
in,
so
I
hope
that
that
is
true.
I
really
do
believe
that
it's
not
about
defunding.
It
is
just
about
restructuring
the
responsibilities
of
policing.
A
So
right
now
I
just
want
to
remind
everyone
that
there
are
counselors
watching
and
listening
to
what's
going
on
today
either
they're
here
in
this
event
or
listening
on
youtube,
and
we
will
be
here
through
new.
So
that's
what
we
advertise,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
people
that
can
comment
and
want
to
comment
feel
free
to
do
so.
So
please
just
raise
your
hand
if
you
have
a
comment
and
I
will
call
on.
A
A
A
O
Yes,
I'm
really
inspired
by
all
these
wonderful
comments,
especially
the
call
for
a
civilian
review
board.
It
should
be
independent
and
have
teeth,
I'm
inspired
by
caleb's
reference
to
the
program
in
eugene.
That
sounds
wonderful,
something
we
should
probably
try
to
emulate.
I
just
want
to
touch
on
two
things.
One
of
them
is
the.
O
We
need
a
clarification
of
the
relationship
between
local
law
enforcement
and
federal
law
enforcement,
especially
the
ice
situation
that,
when
protesters
by
the
hundreds
detained
the
buses,
I
think
the
protesters
had
a
valid
negotiating
point.
I
think
the
then
police
instead
of
disappearing
when
the
federal
agents
arrived,
they
should
have
stayed
and
tried
to
negotiate
a
way
out
of
the
the
impasse.
O
O
And
one
more
thing
regarding
the
pilot
butte
park
protest,
I
did
read
chief
krantz's
report.
I
was
a
little
disappointed.
I
realized
that
the
bend
police
department
had
never
been
exposed
to
that
type
of
situation
before
and
the
chief
france's
news
of
the
community,
but
it
seemed
as
though
in
his
report
he
only
gave
just
passing
reference
to
the
gunman
and
yet,
to
put
it
an
entire
paragraph
to
the
people
who
were
so
outraged
about
the
gunman
that
they
decided
to
commit
civil
disobedience
and
block
his
squad
cars.
O
A
A
F
Yeah
the
thing
about
defunding,
the
police
is
not
about
taking
police
officers
off
the
street.
It's
about
reallocating
funds
to
like
mental
health
professionals
and
nurses
too.
I
guess,
but
instead
of
like
escalating
the
gunfire
when
it's
not
necessary,
especially
since
there
are
so
many
more
african-american
people,
especially
persons
of
color
in
ben
than
the
world.
When
I
was
a
kid,
so
we
don't
want
another
incident,
as
this
happened
in
too
many
other
cities
in
the
united
states.
J
J
A
A
A
A
O
Oh
yeah,
I
just
noticed
that
my
thoughts
were
not
transcribed
accurately.
Okay.
My
last
comment.
I'm
sorry.
If
I
did
this
in
a
confused
way,
I
was
more.
I
was
concerned
about
chief
krantz's
seeming
disproportionate
concern
about
the
the
non-violent
protesters
blocking
his
cars
than
about
the
appearance
of
the
gunman,
and
he
seemed
to
reflect
that
in
his
report,
and
I
don't
I
didn't
see
that
quite
accurately
represented
in
the
transcription.
L
Yeah,
thank
you
again
erica
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
out
on
these
issues
for
ben,
because
this
is
really
important
to
our
community.
I'm
going
to
address
the
community
policing
question
number
two
at
this
point
and
community
policing
has
been
around
for
a
long
time.
I
remember
working
on
it
when
I
worked
for
the
city
of
portland
in
the
70s,
so
there
are
some
simple
things
that
ben
can
do
to
make
community
policing
more
real.
L
L
We
need
them
to
be
attending
regular
neighborhood
meetings
and
not
just
the
big
general
meetings
but
monthly
board
meetings.
And
again
I
will
stress
that
we
need
a
police
force
that
reflects
our
community
in
terms
of
our
composition.
So
we
need
we
need
a
more
diverse
police
force
and
I
think
community
policing
is
really
important
if
you
want
to
increase
trust
between
citizens
and
the
police.
A
A
A
We
really
appreciate
the
fantastic
input
from
our
community
and
we
want
to
express
gratitude
for
everyone
who
took
the
time
to
show
up
and
comment.
This
isn't
the
end
of
community
input.
It
is
an
ongoing
effort
at
the
city,
so
there
will
be
other
opportunities
outside
of
this
one
to
be
able
to
provide
input
as.
A
P
Hi
erica,
thank
you
hi
matt,
so
my
comment
is
in
regards
to
the
fireworks
discussion
earlier
and
an
answer
to
question
two
of
what
does
policing
look
like
in
this
town.
I
think
that
it's
kind
of
a
hypocritical
position
to
take
to
say
we
want
the
police
to
be
nicer
and
use
less
violence,
but
then
also
for
the
neighborhoods
to
say
we
want
the
police
to
come
in
and
crack
down
on
people
using
fireworks.
P
J
A
On
behalf
of
the
city
of
bend,
we
would
like
to
thank
you
for
participating
in
the
listening
session
today
related
to
policing
policies.
This
session
has
ended
but
be
sure
to
watch
bend,
oregon
dot
com,
gov
forward,
slash
community
dash
input
for
final
summaries
and
next
steps
in
the
future.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
participation.
