Does
that
work?
That's
it
you're
ready
to
go
okay.
I
can't
see
the
screen,
but
sim.
Can
you
hear
me
and
see
me
all
right,
yep,
okay,
very
good,
sorry,
sorry,
folks,
we
had
a
a
few
little
technical
challenges
there,
parf
sometimes
par
for
these
days.
I
appreciate
that
all
had
some
patience
with
us.
I
want
to
welcome
everyone
and
thank
all
of
our
community
members.
A
We
embrace
accountability
and
to
track
how
well
we
are
progressing
and
to
identify
persistent
problems
in
order
to
address
them,
transparently,
information
related
to
public
safety,
whether
crime
statistics,
budget
status,
use
of
force
data
and
much
more
is
available
throughout
the
year.
At
our
open
data
portal,
be
clear
with
more
than
200
data
sets,
and
the
resident-led
board
of
public
safety
meets
monthly
in
public
session
for
all
in
the
community
to
hear
regular
detailed
reports
on
our
activities.
A
Keeping
our
community
safe
is
a
fundamental
responsibility
of
city
government.
I
salute
all
the
members
of
our
public
safety
departments
for
the
challenging
work
that
you
do
so
professionally
every
day,
always
putting
the
welfare
of
all
of
our
community
residents
and
visitors
ahead
of
your
own
as
true
public
servants.
A
The
year
2020
brought
extraordinary
challenges
to
public
safety,
the
worst
global
pandemic
in
100
years
transformed
all
of
our
lives.
You'll
hear
today
how
our
local
public
safety
efforts
were
challenged,
how
they
changed
due
to
that
pandemic
and
with
a
public
health
system
primarily
housed
in
county
and
state
government.
A
A
2020
also
witnessed
extraordinary
activism
and
advocacy
related
to
public
safety
and
systemic
racism,
responding
to
several
terrible
examples
of
abuse
of
power
nationally
in
the
public
safety
context
and
in
light
of
generations
of
systemic
inequities
in
our
public
safety
systems.
You'll
hear
today
how
our
community
is
responding
to
these
monumental
challenges
as
well.
A
First
chief
decoff
will
report
on
public
safety
in
the
bloomington
police
department.
A
year
ago,
chief
decouff
reported
on
serious
concerns
about
increased
gun
violence.
Amid
overall
crime
decreases
this
year.
You
will
hear
a
similar
report
about
again.
Overall
crime
decrease,
including
nearly
nearly
20
percent
decrease
in
crimes
against
persons,
but
continued
concerns
about
rising
incidents
of
firearms
use
in
bloomington.
A
You'll,
hear
reports
about
the
new
stride
center
for
crisis,
diversion
new
staffing
with
social
workers
and
neighborhood
specialists,
all
continuing
to
evolve
and
modernize.
Our
police
department
from
director
calendar
anderson
you'll
hear
about
public
safety
in
the
community
and
family
resources
department,
including
reporting
on
our
multi-year
efforts
of
the
safe
and
civil
city
project
director.
Calendar
anderson
will
also
report
on
the
ongoing
work
of
the
divided
community
project
toward
racial
equity,
as
well
as
the
future
of
policing.
A
She
will
also
report
on
coordinating
a
pandemic
response
of
a
task
force
on
basic
services
like
food,
child
care
and
housing.
This
spring
that
has
evolved
also
into
extensive
long-term
collaborative
work
on
housing
and
security
in
the
region,
from
chief
moore
you'll
hear
about
public
safety
in
the
bloomington
fire
department.
Last
year,
key
points
were
no
fatalities.
A
I'll
now
welcome
first
chief
decoff,
followed
then
by
director
calendar
anderson
and
then
chief
moore
after
the
three
presentations.
All
of
us
will
be
available
to
answer
any
questions
from
the
media
through
the
chat
function,
which
will
be
facilitated
by
the
city's
director
of
engagement,
mary,
katherine
carmichael,
thanks
again
and
chief
decoff,
it's
over
to
you.
Thank
you.
C
C
So
this
is
a
copy
of
our
organizational
chart
for
the
bloomington
police
department.
We
are
authorized
105.
We
have
92
current
sworn
police
officers.
The
breakdown
of
that
is
81
male
11
female.
I
mean
you
can
see
the
diversity
in
the
department
with
we
have
83
white
officers.
Five
african-american,
three
latino
and
one
asian
also
included
in
this
chart,
is
our
non-sworn
personnel,
which
consist
of
our
records,
division,
central
dispatch
and
some
of
our
administrative
office
staff
in
my
office
that
take
care
of
payroll
and
attendance
records,
and
things
like
that
next
slide.
C
We
did
very
little
in-person
training
because
of
the
coven
pandemic
you
can
see
on
the
right
of
the
screen
are
some
of
the
topics
of
instruction
mental
health
first
day,
de-escalation,
there
was
a
lot
of
de-escalation
and
anti-bias
training
that
we
conducted
this
year
and
we
do
that
regularly.
Every
year
next
slide.
C
Personnel
hiring
and
recruiting
we
hired
seven
new
officers
in
2020
those
were
replaced
officers
who
either
retired
or
left
the
agency.
Four
of
those
officers
were
previous
previously
certified,
which
basically
means
they
do
not
have
to
go
through
the
indiana
law
enforcement
academy
because
they
already
have
their
certification.
C
This
is
a
slide
on
our
overtime
usage.
You
can
see
in
2019
we
had
985
000
in
overtime.
In
2020
we
had
800
just
over
800
000..
The
biggest
decreases
were
in
little
the
little
500
category
in
farmer's
market.
A
little
500
did
not
happen
last
year
and
farmers
market
was
conducted
in
a
way
that
did
not
have
a
lot
of
public
and
we
were
not
necessary
to
be
there.
Some
of
the
other
highlights
downtown
patrol
had
a
slight
increase.
C
We
continued
to
have
foot
patrols
in
the
downtown
area
to
have
a
presence
and
make
sure
that
businesses
felt
comfortable
and
and
people
visiting
the
downtown
felt
comfortable
shift
coverage
also
had
an
increase
due
to
openings
in
the
department
we
had
to
have
fill
in
with
overtime
so
that
we
could
cover
the
ships
and
meet
staffing
levels
next
slide.
C
So
I
started
talking
a
couple
years
ago
about
the
transition
from
the
uniform
crime
report
to
neighbors,
which
is
the
national
institute
incident-based
reporting
system.
This
is
the
first
year
that
we
will
be
reporting
all
neighbors
crime
information,
because
we
actually
have
two
years
of
information
that
we
can
compare.
C
The
big
difference
between
the
uniform
crime
report
and
neighbors
is
the
uniform
crime
report
reported
violent
crime
and
property
crime,
neighbors
reports,
crimes
against
people,
crimes
against
society
and
crimes
against
property.
And
as
you
look
at
the
comparison
between
2019
and
2020,
there
was
a
almost
20
decrease
in
crimes
against
persons.
C
But
there
was
a
slight
rise
of
4.7
in
crimes
against
next
slide,
please
so
the
biggest
difference
between
neighbors
and
the
uniform
crime
report
is
neighbors
reports
all
crimes
that
happen,
whereas
the
uniform
crime
report
reported
the
most
serious
crime
that
happened,
so
you
will
start
to
see
over
the
years
increases
in
these
numbers
due
to
the
fact
that
if,
for
instance,
if
there
was
a
burglary
and
a
car
was
stolen-
and
someone
was
battered,
all
of
those
crimes
now
will
be
reported
in
neighbors,
whereas
under
the
uniform
crime
report
the
burglary
would
have
been
the
only
one
that
would
have
been
reported.
C
So,
let's
go
through
this
a
little
bit
here
aggravated
assaults.
We
saw
a
slight
decrease
of
14
in
2020,
keep
in
mind
that
most
aggravated
assaults
are
between
people
who
know
each
other
and
also
between
people
who
are
inside
their
own
residences
or
behind
closed
doors.
A
big
thing
in
2020
was
there
were
not
a
lot
of
students
on
campus
and
the
bars
were
closed,
which
tend
to
lead
or
cause
increases
in
aggravated
assaults.
C
C
Let's
go
to
the
next
slide:
crimes
against
society.
You
will
see
what
those
what
we
have
to
report
to
the
fbi,
the
the
the
one
that
I
have
particularly
interested
in
is
the
weapons
violations.
There
was
an
11
increase
and
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
that
on
in
the
upcoming
slides.
Overall,
though,
there
was
a
27
decrease
in
crimes
against
society.
C
Next
slide
crimes
against
property.
There
was
a
slight
increase
in
burglaries.
Part
of
that
was
due
to
some
some
crime
series
that
we
identified
with
open
garages
and
a
lot
of
a
lot
more
garages
being
broken
into
you'll,
see
in
the
fraud
category.
There
was
an
increase
there
again
that
increase.
What
we
believe
is
in
thefts
where
credit
cards
are
stolen.
That
necessarily
wouldn't
have
been
reported
under
ucr,
but
it
is
reported
now
you'll
see
a
significant
increase
in
motor
vehicle
thefts.
C
Again,
we
had
a
couple
of
series
in
2020
where
cars
were
being
stolen
and
then
they
were
being
turned
around
and
used
as
rentals,
and
so
we
made
some
arrests
in
those
cases
and
and
stopped
that
that
string
of
of
vehicle
thefts
theft,
cases
had
a
six
percent
increase
and
vandalism
is
now
reported
under
neighbors
and
it
had
a
four
percent
increase
next
slide.
C
This
is
a
historical
chart
of
ucr
crime
from
2008
to
2018..
So
I
just
added
this
because
this
is
probably
the
last
time
in
one
of
these
reports
that
we'll
talk
about
ucr
data
since
it's
no
longer
being
reported,
it
is
being
reported
as
neighbors.
C
Next
slide.
Please
a
little
bit
of
information
about
our
calls
for
service
2019
versus
2020.
There
was
a
a
for
the
bloomington
police
department.
This
is
comparing
the
law
enforcement
agencies
in
the
county.
There
was
a
decrease
of
a
little
less
than
10
000
calls
for
service
ellisville
had
a
slight
increase.
The
sheriff's
office
had
us
had
a
decrease
and
steinsville
had
a
decrease.
Also
next
slide
gun
violence.
C
There
was
a
52
increase
in
cases
where
a
gun
was
used
to
perpetrate
a
crime
here
locally
in
bloomington,
four
out
of
the
five
homicide
cases
that
we
have
involved,
the
use
of
a
firearm
41
cases
that
we
took
documented,
single
and
or
multiple
guns
that
were
stolen
in
20
for
a
total
of
77
guns
that
were
stolen
in
bloomington
last
year.
C
Gun
violence
across
the
country
continues
to
rise
and
we
are
also
seeing
that
locally
as
well.
Next
slide,
it's
a
little
bit
of
information
about
gun
permits.
You
can
see
in
2019
new
gun
permits
in
monroe
county,
the
total
was
13
441
in
19
and
in
20
there
was
an
increase
to
14
963..
C
You
can
also
see
the
numbers
for
statewide
in
indiana,
for
the
number
of
gun
permits
that
were
issued
next
slide
aggravated
assaults.
The
last
six
years
we
had
seen
an
increase
in
aggravated
assaults.
This
year
we
had
a
14.7
percent
decrease
from
the
2019
levels.
Again
I
mentioned
earlier
that
40
of
the
aggravated
assaults
result
from
domestic
and
interpersonal
relationship.
C
Violence
and
in
over
80
of
the
cases
the
victim
and
the
suspect,
know
each
other
in
63
percent
of
our
cases,
the
crimes
occurred
in
a
residence,
so
it's
very
hard
to
try
to
prevent
aggravated
assaults.
2020.
Of
course
it
was
an
you
know,
a
unique
year
where
we
couldn't
do
a
lot
of
educational
opportunities
with
with
different
groups
because
of
covet,
but
that
is
the
plan
when
things
start
to
open
up
is
to
try
to
continue
to
have
decreases
in
aggravated
assaults
next
slide,
so
just
kind
of
in
perspective.
C
This
is
some
information
on
traffic
stops.
We
continued
the
trend
from
2018
to
2019,
to
2020
of
a
decrease.
Part
of
this
was
due
to
covid,
because
officers
were
not
making
traffic
stops
where
they
encountered.
People
only.
The
the
most
serious
of
traffic
violations
were
where
people
were
stopped.
So
in
2020
we
had
a
total
of
3813
traffic
stops
next
slide.
C
So
this
is
some
traffic
information
comparison,
owi
arrest.
I
saw
a
decrease
in
2020
the
axe.
Total
accidents
saw
a
decrease
in
2020,
as
did
traffic
stops
and
again,
a
lot
of
that
probably
is
due
to
covet
and
there
were
fewer
people
out
on
the
roads
driving
around.
C
So
there
was
just
less
people
violating
traffic
laws
and
getting
involved
in
accidents
next
slide
some
information
from
our
records
division.
You
can
see
there
was
decreases
again
in
several
of
these
categories.
I
will
point
out
the
gun:
permit
applications
process
locally
saw
a
big
increase
in
2020
over
2019.
C
C
The
pandemic
caused
us
to
do
a
lot
of
things
differently.
We
had
to
institute
physical
divisions
between
our
patrol
division,
our
detective
division
and
our
records
division.
C
We
were
doing
everything
we
could
to
limit
the
spread
of
the
disease.
We
had
virtual
roll
calls
which
were
done
via
computer.
We
limited
access
to
areas
of
the
department
so
that
we
could
slow
the
spread
of
the
virus.
Masks
were
required
of
all
personnel
when,
when
they
were
unable
to
physically
distance,
we
also
implemented
improved
and
thorough
cleaning
of
all
equipment.
C
The
vehicles
we
provide
sanitary
hand
sanitizer
wipes
so
that
the
officers
can
wipe
down
their
their
personal
equipment
and
their
work
spaces,
and
we
implemented
changes
in
the
way
we
provide
services
to
to
minimize
the
chance
of
spreading
infection.
C
You
could
see
with
some
of
the
traffic
stop
information.
Those
numbers
were
lower.
We
took
more
online
reports
and
telephone
reports
and,
and
the
whole
goal
was
to
try
to
limit
the
interaction
of
the
officers
with
the
public
so
that
we
that
we
slowed
the
spread
of
the
d
of
the
of
the
covid.
We
also
had
a
dramatic
reduction
in
our
ability
to
conduct
community
outreach
and
engagement
and
we'll.
I
have
a
slide
on
that
to
show
some
of
the
decreases
there.
C
C
C
Our
police,
social
worker
was
very
active.
We
had
one
social
worker
last
year.
You
can
see
the
chart
on
the
right
shows
the
comparisons
from
2019
to
2020..
There
was
a
huge
increase
in
the
interactions
that
she
had
her
monthly
average
was
a
roughly
22
new
referrals
each
month.
She
had
as
many
as
40
in
one
month
and
as
few
as
13..
C
The
the
shifts
would
refer
people
to
her
I
mean
she
would
reach
out
after
that
initial
contact
with
an
officer
to
follow
up,
and
she
did
a
lot
of
that
in
2020
via
email
and
phone
calls
because
of
kovic.
She
had
she
had
fewer
in-person
contacts,
trying
to
again
slow
the
spread
of
of
covid
next
slide.
C
This
is
some
more
information.
You
can
see
the
number
of
individual
clients
that
she
worked
with
and
the
number
of
hours
and
direct
contact
that
she
had
with
clients.
Again
it's
every
month,
she's
done
more
than
the
previous
month.
I
mean
we
expect
that
to
continue,
and
that
is.
That
is
why
we
are
adding
more
police
social
workers
to
the
right
breaks
down.
Some
of
the
demographics
of
of
the
clients
that
that
she's
worked
with
next
slide
our
downtown
patrols,
as
I
mentioned
earlier,
continued
during
2020.
C
Even
though
covid
had
curtailed
people
getting
out,
we
continued
the
the
the
patrols.
We
had
fewer
calls
for
service
in
2020
than
we
did
in
2019,
but
we
still
had
over
6
000
calls
in
the
downtown
area
in
2020
compared
to
8
700
calls
in
2019.
C
C
We
talked
a
little
bit
about
it
last
year.
It
has
a
2.1
million
dollar
budget
that
has
locus
bloomington
government
and
monroe
county
government,
as
well
as
iu
health
and
several
local
businesses
providing
matching
funds
to
keep
it
operating.
It
is
staffed
by
mental
health
professionals
from
center
stone.
C
I
will
note
that
we
have
had
a
very
long
and
successful
relationship
with
center
stone
center
stone
has
outreach
workers
that
work
with
our
downtown
resource
officers
every
day
and
so
having
them
run
the
stride
center
and
having
bpd
be
the
the
agency
that
refers.
The
most
clients
just
continues
that
relationship,
so
you
can
see
that
again,
they
started.
I
believe
it
was
in
august.
They
had
295
referrals
and
21
of
those
were
from
bpd.
C
What's
interesting,
to
note
here
is
that
of
the
295
55
of
those
were
self-referrals.
So
what
that
means
is
that
individuals
who
had
that
first
introduction
to
the
stride
center
by
a
law
enforcement
officer
returned
on
their
own
to
continue
to
seek
help
and
treatment,
which
is
huge.
I'm
considering
that
a
lot
of
times.
C
That
does
not
happen
in
treatment,
programs
and
again
stride
deals
with
low-level
non-violent
crimes
that
occur,
and
it
is
an
it
is
an
alternative
to
incarceration,
whereas
no
charges
are
filed
once
someone
is
referred
to
stride
and
treatment
options
are
are
sought
to
resolve
the
issues
that
the
person
may
have
next
slide.
C
C
Next
slide
transparent
data
sharing.
We
continue
to
participate
in
the
police
data
portal
and
the
be
clear,
open
data
portal
to
the
right
is
a
list
of
16
data
sets
that
we
report
on
quarterly
so
that
the
community
and
others
can
see
what
we're
doing
it's.
I
think
it's
important
to
report
this
information,
not
a
lot
of
agencies
in
indiana
or
around
the
country
are
reporting
as
many
data
sets
as
we
are.
C
But
again
it's
the
transparency
of
what
we
do
is
important
for
the
public
to
be
able
to
look
and
see
that
information
next
slide.
The
mayor
mentioned
police
reforms.
Again
we
instituted
some
of
our
own
in
2020..
C
Again
we
worked
with
the
bloomington
board
of
public
safety
and
and
reviewing
the
21st
century
policing
report
with
them
again,
and
also
the
the
recommendations
from
eight
can't
wait
and
those
recommendations
were
instituted
at
the
police
department.
We
also
strengthened
the
use
of
force
guidelines
to
include
a
prohibition
on
the
use
of
chokeholds,
some
other
reform
efforts
that
we
are
making.
As
I
mentioned
earlier,
we
are
adding
two
additional
social
workers
in
2021
to
bring
the
total
to
three.
C
That
program
is
is
beneficial
because
it's
it's
also
taking
people
that
may
not
need
a
police
officer
but
need
some
kind
of
services
and
having
a
social
worker
reach
out
to
them
to
try
to
resolve
what
issues
they
might
have.
C
So
they
don't
have
those
interactions
with
officers
anymore,
we're
also
adding
two
more
people
to
our
downtown
resource,
our
our
neighborhood
resource
specialist
program,
at
some
point,
probably
over
the
next
year
we
will
be
transitioning
and
renaming
it
to
community
service
specialists
broadening
their
role
in
what
they
do,
so
that
they
can
be
a
more
assistance
and
taking
low
level
calls
that
would
require
a
police
officer
to
do
and
having
those
those
calls
assigned
to
these
community
service
specialists
to
continue
providing
services
where
a
police
officer
may
not
be
necessary
next
slide.
C
So
again,
I
talked
a
little
bit
about
the
social
worker.
We
are
hiring
two
more
that
should
be
occurring
in
the
next
couple
of
weeks,
and
what
that's
going
to
allow
us
to
do
is
expand
the
hours
that
the
social
workers
work
and
actually
expand
the
number
of
people
that
they
can
work
with.
C
Next
slide
again,
I
mentioned
our
community
service
specialist,
one
of
the
things
that
we
will
do
with
with
the
new
ones,
since
we're
adding
four
is
they'll,
be
able
to
take
low-level
reports,
assist
with
traffic
direction
and
still
work
with
neighborhood
groups
to
address
problems
in
their
neighborhoods
again.
This
is
just
another
example
of
trying
to
have
non-sworn
officers.
C
Take
calls
to
relieve
some
of
the
pressure
so
that
the
police
officers
can
deal
with
the
more
serious
issues
that
they're
dispatched
to
next
slide,
2021,
some
of
our
major
goals,
obviously
recovering
from
the
covet
19
pandemic
and
returning
returning
to
normal
operations.
C
C
Again,
we
want
to
continue
to
provide
a
high
level
of
community-based
policing
services,
which
also
includes
our
social
work
services
and
our
community
service
specialists
and
again
we
want
to
continue
to
address
crime
by
working
with
with
the
community
and
the
criminal
justice
system
as
a
whole
to
address
the
underlying
causes
of
crime,
so
that
we
can
resolve
those
things
and
and
reduce
the
numbers
next
slide
again
in
2021.
These
are
some
of
the
law
enforcement.
C
Diversion
programs
that
we
participate
in
those
again
will
be
important
as
we
try
to
not
necessarily
arrest
people
for
crimes,
but
get
them
the
services
that
they
might
need
to
address
why
they
are
committing
crimes,
and
you
can
see
the
list
of
of
diversion
programs
that
we
participate
in
right
now.
Next
slide.
C
It
would
be
a
15-week
academy
that
we
would
hold
here
in
bloomington
to
accept
new
officer
candidates
from
the
region
around
us.
We
will
be
working
with
the
maine
academy
in
plainfield
to
address
some
of
the
backlog
and
training
that
they
have
they
encountered
in
2020.
C
The
the
one
thing
I
want
to
say
about
this.
This
is,
I
think,
a
a
credit
to
all
of
the
training
that
we
do
locally
and
our
training
instructors
that
we
were
asked
and
accepted
to
host
one
of
these
regional
academies
next
slide,
and
that
concludes
my
presentation.
D
B
D
D
I'd
like
to
update
you
on
some
of
the
initiatives
that
we
left
you
with
last
year
at
the
end
of
our
presentation,
so
chief
decoff
has
talked
about
the
stride
center,
the
crisis
diversion
center
and
that's
really
up
and
coming
I
mean.
I
really
think
that
opening
and
operating
that
center
is
a
huge
benefit
to
our
community
and
it's
helping
residents
get
the
needed
respite
and
connection
to
services
that
they
need,
and
it
also
helps
them
avoid
incarceration.
D
And
so
I
want
to
join
the
chief
in
just
giving
kudos
to
center
stone
for
the
work
that
they're
doing
with
that.
D
Also,
we've
had
discussion
about
public
restrooms
for
some
time
in
the
community
and
of
course
that
was
one
of
the
recommendations
of
the
safety
civility
and
justice
task
force.
So
I
wanted
to
report
that
as
part
of
the
new
garages
that
will
be
opening
in
the
trades
district
and
on
4th
street
public
restrooms
will
be
available.
D
D
Because
of
some
other
priorities
related
to
the
pandemic.
We
put
hiring
a
new
after
hours
ambassador
on
hold.
However,
I'm
happy
to
say
the
position
was
reopened.
We
received
applications
and
interviews
for
that
position
will
begin
next
week
and
lastly,
in
this
section,
helping
bloomington
monroe
is
one
of
our
newest
resources.
D
It
is
a
partnership
with
the
bloomington
health
foundation
and
this
online
portal
gives
people
in
need
and
our
community
helpers
access
to
information,
24,
7.,
social
service
agencies,
the
public
library,
faith,
communities
and
even
city
staff
have
found
this
resource
invaluable,
especially
since
the
onset
of
the
pandemic.
D
Administratively,
we're
also
able
to
utilize
the
data
from
helping
bloomington
monroe
to
determine
trends
in
the
community
and
needs
that
are
based
on
their
those
requested
resources.
And
if
you
could
go
to
the
next
slide,
there
is
a
charted
how
some
of
the
trends
and
its
effects
of
covet,
as
you
can
see,
the
main,
consistent
and
main
needs
that
have
been
requested
have
been
for
emergency
food
and
housing
or
to
help
pay
for
housing.
D
We
have
seen
spikes
in
this
as
well
when
some
of
the
federal
programming
was
about
to
end,
and
so
you
see
that
more
and
more
people
are
requesting
assistance
with
those
services
and
our
staff
is
continuing
to
work
to
improve
the
usage
of
helping
bloomington
monroe,
not
only
by
people
who
need
services,
but
also
our
community
helpers
in
the
community
by
providing
ongoing
training
for
updating
the
services
that
are
offered
in
the
community
and
updating
on
how
to
do
outreach
and
how
to
use
the
system
it
is.
D
It
is
really
a
great
system
for
folks
to
use
so
next
slide
andrew.
D
D
Along
with
three
other
cities,
we
went
to
a
two-day
learning
experience
that
provided
skill,
development
and
planning
opportunities
to
help
all
of
these
cities
return
to
their
home
communities
to
engage
residents
and
activities
that
strengthen
conflict
resolution
related
planning
and
capacity
building,
as
well
as
support
and
strengthen
the
development
of
a
local
core
leadership.
Convener
group
for
the
communities
that
participated
out
of
that
initiative.
D
Our
group
came
back
and
developed
a
plan
to
advance
racial
equity
in
our
community
and
two
of
the
goals
of
that
plan.
What
is
the
are
the
development
of
the
racial
justice
task
force
and
the
future
of
policing
task
force
the
racial
justice
task
force
applications
have
been
open
for
a
while.
There
is
a
deadline
of
february
15th.
If
there
is
anyone
in
the
listening
audience
that
is
still
interested
in
participating
on
the
racial
justice
task
force,
I
would
ask
that
you
get
your
applications
in.
D
D
D
The
future
of
policing
task
force
will
attempt
to
engage
a
full
range
of
voices
in
the
community
to
examine
what
policing
in
our
community
should
look
like
in
the
future,
and
I
want
to
make
the
point
of
saying
these
are
not
city
commissions,
but
they
will
be
resident-led
and
resident
guided
task
forces.
We
are
going
to
serve
to
help
get
help
them
get
jumped
off,
but
we
will
not
be
running
them
as
it
were.
D
They
will
be,
they
will
be
actually
running
and
guided
by
residents
so
really
looking
forward
to
seeing
where
that
takes
us
in
the
future.
We've
also
been
invited
to
participate
on
the
divided
communities,
thought
leaders
group.
We
started
that
in
the
fall
of
2020,
and
that
has
been
really
beneficial
to
bring
a
lot
of
leaders
from
around
the
country
together
to
share
information,
to
share
ideas
of
how
communities
can
move
toward
equity
and
and
and
seeing
best
practices
and
what's
working,
what's
not
working
in
other
communities.
D
D
Our
regular
meetings
also
revealed
a
need
for
a
residential
space
who
for
people
who
were
at
high
risk
of
contracting
covet
if
they
were
in
a
communal
space
because
of
age,
disability
or
pre-existing
medical
conditions.
So
the
staff
at
the
safe
recovery
site
worked
with
fssa
to
expand
their
space
to
accommodate
many
of
these
individuals.
D
However,
when
we
began
to
see
an
increase
in
covet
among
those
experiencing
homelessness
and
needed
to
use
that
residential
space
to
accommodate
those
people,
new
hope,
fam
new
hope
for
families
stepped
up
to
absorb
the
residential
space,
enabling
these
individuals
to
stay,
sheltered
and
safe.
D
And
so
again
it
talks
about
how
that
open
communication
in
those
regular
meetings
really
helped
to
bring
those
issues
forward
and
and
we're
using
the
capacity
of
all
of
our
agencies
and
all
of
our
and
all
of
the
resources
in
the
community
to
help
keep
people
healthy
and
safe.
D
It's
been
really
a
pleasure
to
work
with
them
over
the
last
10
months
and
they
do
an
invaluable
service
to
our
entire
community
and
many
times
they
are
not
recognized
for
what
they
do
so
on
behalf
of
city
government.
I
just
really
want
to
thank
every
one
of
those
agencies.
D
So
what
I've
talked
about
to
this
point
has
been
emergency
services,
but
it's
evident
from
all
of
these
conversations
that
housing
and
security
is
a
much
broader
issue,
and
so
we
began
working
with
a
group,
that's
being
led
by
the
united
way
of
monroe
county
and
the
community
foundation
of
bloomington
monroe
county
to
address
housing
and
security.
D
As
as
the
broader
issue
that
it
is,
this
group
is
reviewing
and
updating
the
heading
home
report
that
was
published
back
in
2015..
Well,
it
was
a
2015-2019
plan,
and
so
since
that
time
you
know
there
have
been
a
lot
of
changes
in
our
community.
Some
agencies
have
changed.
Some
agencies
have
gone,
some
new
ones
have
started,
and
so
we're
updating
that
plan
to
look
at
the
impact
of
surrounding
communities
and
what
gaps
exist
to
prevent
residents
from
finding
housing
that
is
affordable.
D
D
So
pandemic
response,
one
of
the
things
that
I've
talked
a
lot
about
were
adjustments
that
had
to
be
made
because
of
the
pandemic,
but
the
pandit
pandemic
impacted
everything
from
shelter
and
housing,
insecurity
to
nutrition,
for
children
who
normally
eat
two
nutritious
meals
at
school
every
day,
and
then
school
was
closed
to
child
care
and
and
much
more
so
in
order
to
assure
that
the
social
service
safety
net
that
has
been
in
place
in
our
community
continue
to
support
our
residents.
We
formed
the
social
service
safety
net
group.
D
And
lastly,
I
would
just
say
that
it's
been
my
pleasure
to
work
with
united
way
with
their
cobot
19
emergency
relief
fund
and
our
city
council,
with
the
jack
hopkins
social
service
fund,
to
help
make
sure
that
both
large
and
small
agencies
in
our
community
had
the
resources
they
needed
to
make
sure
that
as
many
people
as
possible
were
able
to
get
through
the
pandemic
with
the
least
amount
of
disruption.
D
E
All
right
great,
thank
you
before
we
get
started.
I
just
want
to
tell
you
that
2020
has
been
a
challenge
for
everyone
in
the
city,
and
I
really
want
to
thank
the
members
of
our
fire
department
who,
in
a
time
where
a
lot
of
communities
started
to
sit
back
and
think
about,
would
they
continue
to
provide
the
same
services.
E
Our
fire
department
did
not
stop
and
we
continue
to
provide
services
again.
Extra
precautions,
extra
changes
extra
protocols,
but
we
continue
to
serve
the
community
throughout
the
pandemic
and
we
will
continue
so
with
that.
Our
mission
has
not
changed.
We
will
continue
to
provide
the
excellent
public
safety
that
people
expect
fire
prevention.
E
Looking
at
our
diversity,
we
still
have
a
ways
to
go,
but
with
our
current
hiring
practices
and
some
of
the
relaxations
of
the
state
statutes
that
really
limited
our
candidate
pool,
we
are
looking
at
our
next
recruit
class
will
be
one
of
the
most
diverse
classes.
It
will
also
be
the
largest
class
from
from
record
that
we
can
go
back
and
find,
but
where
we're
at
in
2020,
you
can
see
that
we're
5.5
female.
E
I
will
point
out
that,
while
the
bloomington
census
says
about
50
we're
doing
well
above
average
for
most
fire
departments
nationwide,
when
we
get
into
others,
you
know
black
african
american,
we're
at
1.8
percent
and
other
is
basically
one
person
0.9
percent
the
chart
over
here.
That
shows
years
of
service
those
in
red.
E
E
We
did
an
engineering
study
in
2019
that
identified
these
three
stations
as
needing
to
be
replaced,
and
with
that
we
did
have
a
forwarded
question
I
just
want
to
address
before
you
make
decisions
about
replacing
or
moving
fire
stations.
There's
a
lot
of
homework
that
needs
to
be
done.
E
2020
we
had
planned
on
doing
a
lot
of
that
homework.
Covid
did
delay
it
so
2021
we
will
be
evaluating
where
these
stations
would
be
best
located.
Do
we
still
need
five
stations?
Do
we
need
six?
Seven,
all
those
questions
will
be
answered
and
then
obviously
we'll
be
working
really
closely
with
the
controller's
office
to
figure
out
which
option
would
be
best
to
potentially
finance
any
of
this.
E
I
also
want
to
point
out
that
the
training
in
logistics,
that
is
a
leased
space
that
is
new,
covet
brought
up
one
crowded
office
space
environment,
where
we
could
not
physically
distance,
also
knowing
that
the
police
have
training
that's
going
on
and
that
they
will
be
increasing
their
training
with
their
regional
academy.
We
needed
to
make
sure
we
had
a
space
where
we
could
also
complete
classroom
training,
but
also
again
thinking
in
that
forward
sense.
This
training
center
is
also
very
well
equipped
for
broadcasting.
E
We
do
have
plans
in
2021
to
go
ahead
and
make
that
where
we
could
live
stream
training
sessions
to
each
station,
which
would
then
avoid
these
large
trucks
all
coming
to
one
location,
and
with
that
I
just
want
to
tell
you
that
when
you
make
decisions
about
these,
this
is
not
a
a
quick
decision.
This
is
a
50
or
75
year
decision.
You
really
have
to
plan
out
and
look
at
the
city
plans
for
expansion
before
you
start
making
arbitrary
decisions
about
where
these
things
move.
E
This
is
just
a
few
pictures
of
why
we
need
to
start
really
focusing
on
these
fire
stations,
so
the
two
that
were
not
identified
as
beyond
the
replacement
cycle.
There's
a
lot
of
issues
that
we're
aware
of
that.
We've
been
working
on
understanding
that
we
had
a
very
large
issue
to
tackle
with
the
vehicle
fleet,
not
that
this
took
a
back
burner
but
priorities.
E
Covid19
it's
affected.
All
of
us
not
only
on
a
professional
level,
but
also
on
a
personal
level.
I
will
tell
you
that
our
department
really
works
very
well
with
our
community
partners.
So
when
we
got
noticed
that
kovid
19
was
coming
to
the
us
was
coming
to
indiana,
we
were
well
ahead
of
the
curve
trying
to
get
all
that
personal
protective
equipment.
You
can
see
a
picture
here
on
the
slide
of
how
we
are
protecting
our
firefighters,
so
they
continue
can
continue
to
serve
the
community.
E
It
may
be
only
one
line
on
this
slide,
but
assisting
the
continuity
of
city
government
at
the
very
beginning
of
the
pandemic.
This
was
a
vast
majority
of
what
our
department
was
working
with
reviewing
each
department's
plans.
You
know
how
do
we
continue
to
provide
service
even
if
everybody
was
sick
or
everyone
had
to
be
quarantined?
You
know
really
having
to
to
stretch
that
thought
process
of
how
do
we
provide
these
essential
services
and
then
really
getting
down
to?
E
We
realize
all
city
government
services
are
essential.
So
how
do
we
maintain
those
services,
developing
partnerships
to
enhance
testing
and
vaccination?
That
was,
you
know
mainly
for
for
some
of
us
that
were
in
the
front.
Our
department
was
one
of
the
first
to
have
a
positive
covic
case
was
making
sure
that
we
could
properly
protect
the
community
by
making
sure
that
we
were
not
a
source
of
contamination
and
spread.
E
Other
things
delayed
a
grant
funded
trip
to
sierra
leone,
again
completely
paid
for
it
by
the
department
of
state,
but
I
actually
believe
it
was
almost
this
time
last
year
that
we
sat
down
with
the
mayor's
office
and
really
looked
at
the
state
of
indiana
and
the
u.s,
and
then
the
global
pandemic
and
made
the
decision
to
not
go
on
that
trip.
They
were
nice
enough
to
extend
it,
so
we
may
be
trying
to
go
back
in
2021,
we'll
see
it
goes
without
saying
much
like
the
police.
E
E
Covid19
has
even
kind
of
changed
the
thought
process
of
the
integrated
healthcare
model.
So
we
are
going
to
be
looking
at
trying
a
pilot
test
program
of
the
integrated
healthcare
which
is
where,
instead
of
us
just
responding
when
someone
calls
9-1-1,
we
do
follow-up
care
after
the
9-1-1
call.
We
go
out
and
do
preventative
care
to
prevent
a
9-1-1
call
and
because
of
covid
that
may
mean
a
little
different
than
what
we
had
planned
originally.
But
things
like
you
know.
E
We
just
been
approved
by
the
state
to
be
able
to
administer
vaccines
so
supplementing
the
current
vaccine
sites
or
potentially
helping
open
others.
All
these
are
how
we
kind
of
integrate
with
the
bigger
healthcare
picture,
some
of
the
facts,
so
we
had
12
positive,
covet,
19
tests
and
again
this
is
in
2020,
as
of
today
we're
up
to
15.
E
We
were
on
one
of
the
first
entities
around
to
go
ahead
and
start
receiving
covet
19
vaccines,
so
in
2020,
19
personnel
received
their
dose,
in
fact,
probably
just
their
first
dose
as
of
today.
We're
up
to
62
of
our
110
personnel
have
received
their
coven
vaccine
in
prevention.
This
is
one
of
the
most
important
sections
of
our
department,
but
it's
also
the
one
that
requires
the
most
public
interaction.
E
E
We
really
only
had
to
handle
the
complaint
inspections
and
the
ones
that
we
knew
were
problems.
What
I
will
say
is
this
is
something
that
we've
got
to
get
back
on
track
very
quickly.
So
you
know
this
year.
We
did
not
see
a
massive
increase
in
fires,
but
what
we'll
find
is
we
don't
get
back
on
track
with
this
goal?
Is
that
a
few
years
from
now,
we
will
start
seeing
a
drastic
increase
in
fires,
and
that
is
something
we
do
not
want.
E
Nor
is
it
something
that
that
we
think
is
good
for
the
community,
so
engineering
again
with
only
one
person
we
were
down,
but
this
was
a
lot
of
what
could
continue
and
had
to
continue.
Construction
didn't
stop
new
buildings
didn't
stop
and
we
play
a
very
vital
role
in
making
sure
those
buildings
are
safe
for
training.
We
met
100
of
our
goal.
You
can
see
that
we
had
a
lot
of
sections
of
our
hours
that
were
down.
E
So
you
know
our
training
did
take
a
a
you
know,
a
downward
trend
because
of
some
of
that,
but
you'll
also
see
in
the
other
specialty
category
that
it
went
way
up.
Your
firefighters
had
to
deal
with
almost
weekly
updates
to
protocols.
As
we
learned
more,
we
would
institute
new
changes
and
that
required
learning
how
to
do
things
in
a
different
way
or
having
to
update
your
skill
sets
or
the
personal
protective
equipment.
E
So
what
I
will
tell
you
is
this
is
also
the
departmental
goal.
We
had
several
positions
that
were
unfilled
last
year
and
we
are
looking
forward
to
filling
them
this
year.
With
our
largest
and
again,
most
diverse,
recruit
class
we've
ever
had
for
calls.
You
can
see
our
trending
line
stayed
fairly
stable
compared
to
what
it
is
in
the
past.
That's
the
red
line
that
goes
through
and
we
did
still
run
about
almost
half
our
calls
were
rescue
ems
calls.
E
So
not
only
were
the
students
not
around.
I
want
to
thank
our
partners
at
iu
that
took
the
advantage
of
the
downtime
to
start
working
on
a
lot
of
the
buildings
that
we
were
having
issues
with
and
really
focused
on.
You
know
making
things
better
for
all
of
us,
but
iu
had
a
39
reduction
in
total
calls
and
35
reduction
in
their
false
alarms.
E
So,
while
false
alarms
still
remain
a
very
big
portion
of
iu's,
total
calls,
it
is
significantly
down
and
a
lot
of
that
comes
not
only
from
students
not
doing
things
that
we
don't
particularly
care
for,
but
it
also
comes
down
to
their
commitment
on
upgrading
several
of
these
buildings
and
working
on
some
of
the
alarm
systems
were
causing
problems.
So
again,
I
just
want
to
thank
our
partners
at
iu
that
have
continually
helped
us
drive
their
total
call
numbers
down
and
making
their
campus
safer.
E
Looking
at
this,
this
is
something
that
we're
very
proud
of
for
four
years
straight,
we've
had
zero
fire
fatalities.
That
includes,
we
had
one
additional
save
in
2020,
but
if
you
can
see
the
trending
line
that,
even
though
we
have
a
slight
uptick,
we
are
still
well
below
our
numbers
and
we
continue
to
expect
those
numbers
to
go
down.
E
I
also
want
to
point
out
something
is
that
if
you
look
at
previous
years,
there's
a
lot
of
spikes
that
go
up
and
down
and
what
we've
been
trying
to
do
is
really
manage
the
causes
of
these
issues
so
that
we
get
not
so
much
of
a
spike
and
it
becomes
a
steady
decline
on
total
fire
calls.
But
also
you
know,
saving
people
obviously
reduces
the
number
of
fire
fatalities.
E
On
our
response
times,
I
want
to
go
ahead
and
point
out.
We
did
receive
a
previous
pre-loaded
question
about
this.
We
will
look
into
the
visualization
on
this
for
the
we
have
the
goal
of
responding
on
scene
within
four
minutes.
Our
alarm
report,
or
our
record
management
system,
generates
an
automated
report
that
specifies
less
than
a
minute
one
minute.
Two
three,
I
believe
the
graphic
is
actually
from
had
it
on.
It
did
not
need
to
have
the
one
minute
to
159.
E
I
believe
that's
all
calls
that
we're
up
to
a
minute,
but
we
will
verify
that.
I
also
want
to
go
ahead
and
take
the
time
to
point
out
that
in
2021
we
are
looking
at
using
better
data,
visualization
tools
that
go
to
the
root
source
of
the
data,
so
that
there
is
the
potential
of
less
analysis
errors
when
we're
creating
these
reports.
E
E
Our
90
tile
response
time
is
3
minutes
and
35
seconds
so
below
the
four
minutes
and
on
the
same
standard
it's
only
90
for
1710
for
structure
fire
calls
within
eight
minutes,
and
that
is
the
total
response
force.
So
that
is
all
units
getting
there,
not
just
the
first
unit,
we're
at
six
minutes
and
48
seconds,
which
is
well
below
the
eight-minute
goal.
E
We
are
still
a
rating
of
a
2
2x
for
iso.
That
puts
us
in
the
top
2
percent
of
departments
within
the
u.s
and
1
percent
in
indiana.
We
are
expecting
a
re-evaluation
in
2021,
and
I
will
tell
you
that
we
do
expect
to
maintain,
if
not
improve
our
rating
in
the
next
inspection.
E
So
another
thing
of
nfpa
1710
and
that's
just
one
of
the
standards.
We
have
to
look
at
evaluates
how
many
firefighters
we
put
on
several
types
of
scenes.
Three
main
ones
is
the
single
family
home,
a
strip
mall
or
commercial
building,
and
then
the
high
rise.
So
you
can
see
on
single
family
homes.
E
We
send
exactly
what
is
needed
and
it's
actually
just
a
slight
above
that
just
because
we
maintain
minimum
staffing
of
four
on
the
strip
mall
we
are
just
under,
but
we
do
have
the
capacity
to
send
the
entire
shift
at
minimum.
Staffing
would
put
us
at
just
one
person
short
and
on
high
rise,
even
though
we
are
running
short
on
that
we
still
are
not
seeing
the
negative
outcomes
within
our
community.
That
would
be
expected
if
we
were
not
managing
these
hazards
in
other
ways
as
well.
E
Moving
on
administration
annual
operating
budget,
it
was
significantly
higher,
but
I
also
want
to
point
out
that's
because
we
got
to
push
in
a
lot
of
new
apparatus.
So
thanks
to
mayor
hamilton,
city
administration
and
the
taxpayers,
and
obviously
city
council
compared
to
2016
until
now,
the
top
picture
is
something
that
we
saw
fire
trucks
being
towed
fire
trucks
with
holes
in
them.
E
Other
projects
we've
got
the
lease
space.
We
talked
about
pandemic
protocols,
we've
kind
of
talked
about.
We
have
two
software
platforms
that
went
online
in
2020.
First,
due
there's
a
picture
of
kind
of
what
it
is
that
we
see
a
lot
of
what
we
do
is
we
need
to
have
a
lot
of
information
about
the
buildings
we're
going
to,
and
this
pre-planning
program
gives
us
open
source
data.
So
you
know
data
from
the
assessor's
office
and
any
of
the
work
that
we've
done
to
kind
of
pre-incident
plan
that
building
is
now
available
to
our
firefighters.
E
Other
things,
we're
really
proud
of
the
history,
exhibit
indiana
safe
haven,
baby
box,
and
we
did
have
a
union
contract
negotiation
that
did
agree
to
another
four
year
contract
and
again
substantially
increased
our
pension
base
to
make
it
where
we
are,
you
know
really
keeping
up
with
where
we
should
be
2020
goals.
I
want
to
point
out:
the
ones
in
red
are
the
ones
that
we
did
not
make.
In
fact,
as
you
can
see
like
making
every
making
a
contact
with
every
occupancy
within
night,
we
were
only
19.
E
That
is
the
worst
we've
ever
done
on
this
goal.
It
is
something
that
we
will
continue
to
work
on
and
again
it's
something
that
we
cannot
tolerate
to
run
that
short
in
for
for
multiple
years,
other
things
that
really
got
hit
by
the
pandemic
beginning
the
center
for
public
safety
excellence,
accreditation
accreditation
is
a
very
lengthy
process
and
with
all
the
work
we
had
to
do
to
stay
ahead
of
the
pandemic.
That
was
just
something
that
we
could
not
do.
E
E
E
So
this
has
been
a
multi-year
project
and
it
will
be
a
continual
process
improvement
where
we
continually
look
at
the
community
and
how
do
we
remove
barriers
to
ensure
that
we
are
properly
recruiting
and
incentivizing
all
people
to
come
and
work
at
our
department?
So
inclusion
we
have.
We
have
been
serving
the
city
since
1900.
We
will
continue
to
serve
the
city
and
I
am
very
proud
of
our
firefighters
and
with
that
that
ends
my
presentation
and
I
will
turn
it
back
over.
F
All
righty,
I
think
it's
time
for
the
question
and
answer
portion
of
today's
meeting
thanks
everybody,
beverly
calendar
anderson
chief,
mike
decoff,
chief
jason,
moore
and,
of
course,
mayor
john
hamilton
folks
are
available
for
your
questions
and
we
did
have
a
few
that
came
in
ahead
of
time.
So,
let's
start
with
one
of
those,
as
you
know,
the
indiana
state
assembly
or
general
assembly
is
in
session
at
this
time.
So
the
first
question
is
referencing,
some
work
being
done
up
at
the
state
house.
Chief
decoff.
F
This
looks
like
it's
for
you
house,
bill
1006,
now
passed
by
the
house,
defines
chokehold
and
adds
it
to
those
actions
considered
to
be
deadly
force
from
the
faq
issued
over
the
summer.
The
bloomington
police
department
does
not
allow
nor
train
our
officers
in
the
use
of
choke
holds
and
strangleholds
here's.
The
question-
and
this,
I
should
say,
is
from
dave
askins
for
the
b-square
beacon.
The
question
is:
it
looks
like
that
legislation
would
have
no
impact
on
bpd's
policy
on
chokeholds.
Can
you
confirm
that
chief
decock.
C
I
will
say
that
I,
through
the
indiana
chiefs
association,
got
to
participate
in
working
with
representative
sterwalt
when
he
crafted
the
legislation
in
house
bill
106,
along
with
the
sheriff's
association
of
state
police,
and
so
there
was
a
lot
of
input
in
that
every
agency
agreed
that
that
choke
holds
need
to
be
banned.
I
mean
that
does
apply
to
us.
We
we
have
banned
those
and
it
will.
It
will
follow
that
legislation.
F
Thank
you,
chief
decoff.
I
should
mention
we
got
a
late
start
at
11
10
as
opposed
to
11
o'clock.
It's
12
20.
Now
so
we're
going
to
allow
probably
about
10,
more
questions,
minutes
for
questions.
If
you
have
a
question,
please
put
in
the
q
a
section
on
the
meeting,
and
we
will
get
to
that
also
I'll
mention
that
the
public
safety
website
is
available
and
that
address
will
also
be
available
on
your
screen.
So
if
you
have
additional
questions,
looking
for
more
data,
that's
a
good
spot
to
look
so
chief.
F
While
I've
got
you
I'll,
ask
you
another
one.
This
is
also
from
dave
askins.
This
is
sworn
officer
staffing,
and
I
think
you
mentioned
this
in
your
presentation.
So
you
should
know
the
answer
to
this
off
the
top
of
your
head.
The
city
council
amended
the
salary
ordinance
last
year
to
allow
in
theory,
105
sworn
officers.
What's
the
current
number
of
sworn
officers,
you
currently.
C
C
So
we
are
in
the
process
of
of
hiring
people,
we
have
fire
and
correct
four
or
five
potential
candidates
to
hire,
so
that
would
still
keep
us
below
a
hundred
and
we
will
have
to
start
another
hiring
process
to
to
add
more
to
get
up
to
to
that
number.
F
Okay,
thank
you,
chief
moore.
I've
got
a
question
from
you
for
you.
Rather
from
the
b-square
beacon,
it
says,
on
the
fire
response
times.
I
want
to
push
back
a
little
on
the
idea
that
it's
a
visualization
issue
if
that
bar
is
labeled
four
minutes
to
four
four
minutes
and
59
seconds.
If
that
one's
taken
out
of
the
mix
about
64
of
responses
are
within
four
minutes
can
he'd
like
a
little
additional
clarity
on
that.
If
that
question
makes
sense
the
way
I
phrased
it.
E
Yes,
I
think
the
the
thing
about
with
the
visualization.
I
don't
believe
that
automated
report
pull
out
does
not
cover
the
extra
so
that
four
minute
bar
would
cover
the
four
minutes
unless,
but
this
is
something
that
we'll
definitely
dig
into
and
make
sure
that
we
are
accurate
reporting.
E
I
will
tell
you
just
from
from
experience
if
we
were
only
getting
to
our
call
64
of
the
time.
We
would
not
have
the
positive
outcomes
that
we
are
seeing,
so
I
will
definitely
dig
into
it
and
I
do
believe
it's
just
an
error
on
the
visualization
itself,
but
you
know
again,
we'll
always
look
through
the
raw
data
to
make
sure
that
we
did
not
have
an
error
in
our
analysis.
F
Thank
you,
mayor
hamilton,
thank
you
for
sticking
around
for
questions
as
well.
We've
got
one
that
may
involve
both
you
and
chief
moore.
This
is
about
capital
needs.
It's
a
fire
protection
question.
It
says
at
five
million
dollars
for
each
of
three
station
that
stations
that
needs
to
be
rebuilt
and
another
five
million
dollars
for
an
additional
station
in
the
southwest
of
the
city.
We
have
a
20
million
dollar
capital
need
ps,
lit,
won't
come
close
to
covering
that
a
10
million
dollar
go
bond.
Two
years
in
a
row
would
get
us
there.
F
A
I'll,
let
chief
moore
answer
in
a
second,
but
let
me
just
make
a
couple
quick
points.
First,
we
do
and
should
acknowledge
the
appreciation
of
the
community
supporting
the
public
safety
lit
local
income
tax
increase
in
2016,
which
is
0.25
percent,
which
has
been
very
very
important
to
supporting
the
investments
in
public
safety,
including
the
new
equipment
that
we
have
in
terms
of
fire
stations
and,
of
course,
that
won't
all
happen
at
once.
A
The
southwest
one
may
not
be
needed,
as
chief
moore
indicated
they'll,
be
reviewing
all
that,
but
chief
moore
you
can.
You
can
share
that,
but
we
don't
actually
have
a
fully
developed
finance
plan.
But
that's
what
we'll
do
when
we
find
out
what
the
bill
looks.
Like
chief
moore,
you
want
to
add
yeah.
E
I
know
that
I've
kind
of
answered
this
already,
but
I
think
the
best
thing
to
say
is
that
we
don't
even
get
to
the
stage
of
financing
a
plan
until
we
fully
develop
the
plan
itself,
so
we've
been
in
flux
between
annexation
and
other
things
over
the
years.
All
this
has
an
effect
on
where
fire
stations
should
go
and
should
not
go.
E
So
again,
it's
too
early
to
say
how
we're
going
to
finance
it
when
we're
not
even
sure
how
many
we
need
where
we
need
them
and
how
much
it's
legitimately
going
to
cost.
So
the
10-year
budget
plan
was
really
kind
of
placeholders
from
an
engineering
firm
that
gave
us
a
rough
estimate
of
what
it
would
take
to
replace
stations.
So
again,
thank
you
for
the
question,
but
I
think
we're
too
early
to
be
able
to
say
how
we're
gonna
finance
it
when
we're
not
fully
sure
what
we
really
need.
A
I
guess
thank
you
chief
one.
Other
thing
I
just
add
is
that
it's
probably
worth
the
community
knowing
that
that
particularly
for
station
three,
which
may
be
the
oldest
station,
I
think
that
is
in
close
collaboration
with
indiana
university,
provides
critical
service
to
the
campus
and
and
any
change
in
that
station
would
be
done
with
great
collaboration
and
cost
sharing
with
the
university
as
well.
So
that
that's
good
for
the
public
to
know.
F
Thank
you,
chief
decoff,
back
to
you,
the
site
plan
for
the
thousand
bed
student
oriented
housing
development
called
the
standard
to
replace
the
brownstone
terrace
was
on
the
city
plan
commission's
monday
night
agenda.
The
developers
talked
about
providing
free
housing
for
one
police
officer.
It's
apparently
something
they've
tried
with
some
success.
In
other
places,
cost
of
housing
inside
the
city
is
one
reason
cited
for
the
fact
that
just
15
percent
of
bloomington
police
department,
sworn
officers
live
inside
city
limits.
F
Here's
this
question
has
this
potential
free
housing
in
a
student-oriented
development
been
a
topic
of
water
cooler,
conversation
at
bloomington
police
department?
What's
your
sense
of
the
interest
among
sworn
officers
in
such
a
living
arrangement,
and
do
you
think
that
incentives
like
housing
credits
or
take-home
vehicles
actually
make
a
difference
whether
a
police
officer
decides
to
live
inside
the
city
limits.
C
Well,
providing
apartment
complexes,
providing
free
housing
to
police
officers,
isn't
anything
new
there
are.
There
are
several
complexes
around
the
community
that
do
that
already.
So
I
don't
think
it's
probably
the
subject
of
water
cooler
conversations,
because
it's
it's
not
really
anything
new.
I
will
say
that
we
continue
to
put
the
final
touches
on
looking
at
take
home
car
program
and
housing
incentives
for
our
officers.
F
House
bill
tennos,
oh
see,
we've
done
have
we
done
to
house
bill
206
no
hospital
106
requires
the
indiana
law
enforcement
training
board
to
include
de-escalation
training
as
part
of
pre-basic
training
and
mandatory
in-service
training
and
the
executive
training
program.
Here's
the
question:
isn't
it
the
case
that
de-escalation
training
is
already
a
part
of
bpd's
ongoing
in-service
training?
F
C
So
we
we
probably
do,
as
I
showed
in
our
in
our
training
report,
more
training
than
a
lot
of
agencies
around
indiana
do
and
we
do
a
lot
of
de-escalation
training
most
of
the
training
that
we
do
be
it
defensive
tactics,
be
it
firearms,
be
it
you
know,
negotiations
how
to
talk
to
people.
It
all
has
a
de-escalation
component
to
it.
So
what
the
legislature
is
trying
to
do
is
they're
trying
to
codify
that
training.
For
those
agencies
that
don't
do
de-escalation
training.
C
There
are
a
lot
of
smaller
agencies
that
don't
have
the
personnel
or
the
budgets
to
do
that,
and
so
the
legislature
is
trying
to
ensure
that
all
law
enforcement
agencies
step
up
their
game
when
it
comes
to
that
type
of
training.
Again,
it's
something
that
bpd
has
done
for
many
many
years.
We
will
continue
to
do
that
with
regards
to
who
does
that
training?
For
us?
It's
usually
a
variety.
We
do
some
in-house.
We
do
some
with
the
academy,
and
there
are
some
that
we
hire
outside
trainers
to
do.
C
C
F
Thank
you.
Well,
it's
12
29
we're
well
over
our
intended
time,
but
we
had
a
lot
of
good
information
shared
here
today.
If
you'd,
like
additional
information,
I'll
remind
you
that
there
is
a
website
specific
to
public
safety
and
that
web
address
is
in
the
chat,
and
I
would
also
remind
you
that
this
is
the
fifth
state
of
public
safety
that
we
have
presented
to
the
public
and
encourage
you
to
review
others.
If
you
have
interest
in
that,
they
should
also
be
available.
F
A
Just
thank
everybody.
I
know
we've
gone
over,
appreciate
your
patience
and
thanks
again
to
all
of
those
in
our
community
who
work
for
public
safety
they're,
an
extraordinary
group
of
people,
and
we
appreciate
their
dedication,
professionalism
and,
and
thanks
for
sharing
this
report
today,.
