C
Well,
we
want
to
welcome
everybody
to
the
June
22nd
City
Council
meeting
prior
to
the
start
of
our
meeting.
Today,
we've
got
a
couple
of
quick
presentations
and
proclamations
and
so
I'd
like
to
start
out.
First
we've
got
a
special
service
award
for
Elaine
Estes,
and
we
want
to
thank
her
for
many
years
of
service
of
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
not
only
to
the
Historic
Preservation
Commission,
but
also
to
the
public
library
of
Des
Moines
and
our
City
Council
member
Carl
boss,
Carl
I'm
gonna.
D
D
You
know
she's
also
served
on
that
State
Historic
Preservation
Board
and
on
some
national
boards,
so
there
she
is
almost
like
a
reference
library
in
herself
on
historic
preservation.
So
we
wanted
to
fit
to
use
this
opportunity
to
thank
her
for
her
service
and
I
believe
su
woody.
Is
there
at
Elaine's
house
to
make
a
presentation
of
a
plaque,
and
we
were
fortunate
to
dig
out
a
key
to
the
city
for
a
lane
that
we're
very
proud
to
give
her
this
evening.
D
C
You
yeah
thanks
Carl
in
lane
two
you
for
the
so
many
years
of
great
service
to
the
City
of
Des
Moines
and
the
historic
district
Commission,
and
also
personally
from
me
as
the
Mayor
of
the
City
of
Des
Moines.
You
have
been
a
great
friend
and
a
great
adviser
all
through
the
years
and
I
want
you
to
know
how
much
I
appreciate
it.
I
know.
The
whole
council
appreciates
your
years
of
service.
So
congratulations,
and,
although
you
probably
came
here
are
some
I'm
clapping
as
we
speak.
E
City
Council
members
and
mayor
and
missus
woody,
thank
you
so
much
I
certainly
had
no
expectations
of
receiving
an
award
or
any
recognition
for
public
service.
It
has
been
my
pleasure
to
serve
on
behalf
of
historic
preservation,
but
happy
honor,
as
Carl
said
to
be
a
member
of
preservation,
boards
and
commissions,
nationally,
statewide
and
locally
historic
properties
and
saving
historic
properties
and
sites
is
so
important
in
the
United
States.
E
It
is
important
because
we
have
the
opportunity
to
see
and
live
in
properties
that
are
not
older
than
other
parts
of
the
world.
People
will
have
asked
me
why
I
am
interested
in
saving
historical
architecture,
and
my
response
has
always
been
I
think
it
is
one
thing
to
read
about
different
periods
of
structures,
but
it
is
totally
another
thing
to
see
them.
Observe
them
touch
them
understand
the
interiors
and
exteriors
in
my
profession.
I
certainly
believe
people
should
read
history
to
understand
the
lifestyles
over
the
years.
E
So
this
is
a
pleasure
for
me
to
be
here
and
to
accept
your
kind
awards
and
I
wish.
Other
people
who
are
serving
in
the
future
enjoy
their
service
as
much
as
I
have
and
I
wish
them
well
in
the
responsibilities,
because
it
is
a
responsibility
to
be
accurate
to
be
as
true
to
the
profession
as
you
can,
and
thanks
to
all
of
you,.
C
B
B
C
C
F
You
meryt
County.
Can
you
hear
me?
Okay,
yes,
okay,
good
to
be
here.
Thank
you
for
this
opportunity.
I've
got
a
brief
statement.
In
recent
weeks,
we've
been
shocked
by
the
discrimination
and
violence
against
unarmed
Americans
for
an
African
American.
As
with
this
Proclamation
that
you
can
see
in
front
of
you,
there's
no
greater
violence
imaginable
than
the
use
of
nuclear
weapons
as
we
seek
to
end
the
state
violence
against
so
many
in
our
communities.
We
must
also
take
decisive
action
to
eliminate
nuclear
weapons
before
they
are
used
intentionally
or
by
accident
experts.
F
Like
former
defense
secretary
William
Perry
tell
us
that
we
are
closer
to
nuclear
war
than
we
have
ever
been.
The
well-known
Doomsday,
Clock
or
The
Bulletin
of
Atomic
Scientists
has
now
been
set
at
a
hundred
seconds
before
midnight.
The
closest
it
has
ever
been.
The
scientific
and
medical
community
are
warning
us
that
even
a
limited
nuclear
war
could
cause
worldwide
climate
disruption
and
a
catastrophic
famine,
putting
some
2
billion
people
at
risk.
F
I
thank
the
many
members
with
one
immunity
connected
to
the
methodist
federation
of
social
action,
yeah
like
peace
ministry,
Star,
Trek,
Women's,
International,
League
for
decency,
the
Des
Moines
faith
community
for
peace,
Des,
Moines,
Valley,
Friends
Meeting
and
their
peace
committee,
and
also
physicians
for
Social
Responsibility
in
Iowa,
and
also
nationally
banks
in
Iowa
to
marine
McHugh
and
John
Rec
out
both
physicians.
Thank
you
very
much.
Mir
County.
All.
C
plans
to
spend
more
than
1.7
trillion
dollars
to
replace
its
entire
nuclear
weapons
infrastructure
and
upgrade
its
nuclear
bombs
and
warheads,
and
the
bombers
missiles
and
submarines
that
deliver
them
with
more
capable
and
more
unusable
or
more
useable
versions.
And
whereas
the
2020
fiscal
year
federal
tax
cost
to
the
Des
Moines
taxpayers
give
over
39
million
dollars
for
weapons
of
mass
destruction.
C
Our
resolution
was
approved
unanimously
today
at
the
opening
of
the
International
Committee
of
the
Conference
of
Mayors
and
32
municipalities,
including
the
cities
of
Los,
Angeles,
Baltimore,
Salt,
Lake,
City
and
Washington
with
more
under
consideration,
and
whereas
the
US
has
obligated
under
the
nuclear
non-proliferation
treaty
to
take
concrete
steps
to
eliminate
its
nuclear
arsenals.
Now,
therefore,
des
moines
calls
on
the
US
to
lead
a
global
effort
to
prevent
nuclear
war
by
and
if
you
could
advance
it
a
little
bit.
Okay,
just.
C
By
renouncing
the
option
of
using
nuclear
nuclear
weapons,
first
ending
the
sole
unchecked
authority
of
any
president
to
launch
a
nuclear
attack,
taking
US
nuclear
weapons
off
hair-trigger
alert
and
cancelling
the
plan
to
replace
its
entire
arsenal
with
enhanced
weapons
in
actively
pursuing
a
verifiable
agreement
among
nuclear-armed
States
to
eliminate
their
nuclear
arsenals.
Now,
therefore,
I,
the
Mayor
of
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
do
hereby
proclaim
Monday
June
22nd
as
back
from
the
brink
to
call
the
prevent
nuclear
war
day
and
be
it
FURTHER
RESOLVED
that
des
moines
iowa
calls
on
the
u.s.
C
G
Hello,
mr.
mayor,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak.
I
will
be
offering
very
brief
remarks
to
thank
the
LGBTQ
Advisory
Council
for
their
insights
and
guidance
in
helping
the
Commission
and
the
City
of
Des
Moines
become
more
gender
inclusive.
They
have
been
instrumental
in
letting
us
see
how
we
can
shape
City
pop
policy,
more
gender,
inclusive
language,
then
I
believe
that
we
do
have
the
Advisory
Council
chair
and
vice
chair
present
today
and
they're
going
to
be
offering
some
remarks
as
well.
Thank
you.
Alright,.
H
H
Over
the
past
several
weeks,
Bayard
Rustin,
a
gay
black
civil
rights
leader
who
advised
Martin
Luther
King
jr.,
once
said
that
we
need,
in
every
community
a
group
of
angelic
troublemakers
and
I
urge
city
leadership
to
back
up
the
words
of
this
Proclamation
with
action
that
aligns
with
what
our
city's
own
group
of
troublemakers
has
requested
of
you.
In
doing
so,
you
would
truly
embody
the
spirit
of
Pride
Month
and
help
us
create
a
more
just
and
equitable
City.
Thank
you
that
ends
that
ends
my
comments.
C
Now,
therefore
I
the
mayor,
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
do
hereby
proclaim
the
month
of
June
2020
as
LGBTQ
Pride
Month,
and
call
upon
the
residents
of
Des
Moines
to
recognize
and
participate
in
this
special
event
and
thank
everybody
on
the
civil
and
human
rights
commission,
and
especially
your
subgroup
for
working
on
this
and
let's
keep
working
together.
Thank
you.
So
much.
J
Just
wanted
to
thank
you
for
the
opportunity.
I've
invited
me
to
just
make
a
few
comments
on
this
proclamation
and
greatly
appreciate
the
proclamation
of
declaring
the
month
of
June
as
lgbtq+
Pride
Month.
As
president
of
Capitol
City
pride.
We
constantly
work
to
on
the
promotion
of
self
affirmation,
dignity,
dignity,
equality
and
increased
visibility
of
lesbian,
gay,
bisexual
and
transgender
people
so
feel
that
this
proclamation
mission,
you
know.
J
C

Sorry,
thank
you
item
two

the
agenda
as
presented
and
or
as
amended.
I
will
say
that
it's
been
moved
but
item
49
s
1
was
added.
It's
approving
a
payment
to
Belen
McCormick
regarding
legal
services.
57
was
added.
It's
a
out
grant
application
for
the
proposed
improvements,
the
Prospect
Park
as
part
of
the
central
Iowa
water
trails
and
is
sponsored
by
councilmember
Gatto
item.
65
D
was
corrected.
It's
a
roll
call.
It's
an
estimated
annual
cost
of
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars

It's
an
updated
version
of
an
ordinance
which
suggested

a
community

B
is
added
to
receive
and
file

B
I
B
C
Those
are
routine
items
that
are
generally
enacted
by
one
roll
call
vote
without
a
separate
discussion.
Unless
someone
either
one
of
our
council
members
or
a
public
request
that
the
item
be
removed
to
be
separately
either
outlined
or
detailed
or
considered
separately
Katie,
you
have
a
list
of
those
anybody
is
asked
to
have
that
happen
either
off
the
council.
No.

C
I
Mr.
mayor
I'd
like
to
continue
this
particular
application
for
for
further
investigation.
I,
know
council
member
Coleman,
when
he,
when
he
served,
would
frequently
highlight
this
establishment,
and
then
there
have
been
a
couple
of
things,
both
they're
reopening
in
response
to
coronavirus,
as
well
as
some
racist
comments
that
maybe
are
inciting
violence
or
could
be
seen
as
a
call
to
incite
violence.
That
would
influence
our
view
on
their
good
moral
character.
That
I
would
like
us
to
collect
more
information
on
before
we
before
we.
I
C
P
Q
C
Okay
item
six:
this
is
under
public
improvements,
it's
or
during
the
construction
of
the
blank
golf
course:
cart
paths,
repairs
receiving
bids
of
7/7
20
and
setting
a
date
of
hearing
of
august
3rd
of
20.
The
estimate
on
this
is
two
hundred
ninety
six
thousand
dollars.
Council
communication
number
20,
279,
Marty,
we'll
open
it
up
for
your
comments.
A
M
R
You
can
hear
me
yes,
sir
okay,
this
is
my
first
experience
with
zoom
I'm.
Sorry,
I
can't
wait
to
get
over
it.
I
wanted
this
polled,
because
I
think
the
timing
is
very
insensitive.
I
know
that
that
this
is
something
that
has
been
requested
in
the
budget.
That
came.
You
know
the
2021
budget,
but
I
think
that
it's
a
little
bit
insensitive
because
of
the
not
knowing
where
this
money
is
actually
coming
from.
R
If
this
is
part
of
the
the
lost
money
and
if
it
is
I
think
that
at
a
time
when
we're
dealing
with
the
pandemic
and
people
unemployed,
people
are
struggling
week
to
week,
they've
been
laid
off
and
everything
else
to
see
that
a
golf
cart
path
is
going
to
be
replaced
by
about
300.
That,
with
about
$300,000
I
think
is
very
insensitive
and
it
shows
no
compassion.
I
would
like
to
have
this
pulled
and
probably
done
later
in
the
year.
I.
R
Don't
think
it
needs
to
be
done
right
now
my
grandson
and
I
golfed
blank
Park
Golf
Course
Golf
Course
last
summer,
I
thought
it
was
a
great
experience.
He
thought
it
was
a
great
experience
and
I
looked
at
the
photos
in
the
communication
and
I,
don't
see
where
that's
gonna
hurt
anybody
that
any
safety
is
going
to
happen.
Meanwhile,
I
would
also
like
you
to
look
into
the
fact
that
maybe
green
fees
and
membership
dues
should
be
the
sole
source
for
this
project
better.
Yet
the
cost
of
maybe
golf
cart
path.
R
C
C
S
M
M
M
I
just
thought
Marty
should
know
that,
because
he
made
reference
to
that
about
green
fees,
but
that's
the
percentage
that
we
get
from
our
operator
is
what
this
is
being
paid
for.
I,
believe
Scott,
you
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
maybe
maybe
Marty,
would
feel
a
little
bit
better
about
it
if
he,
if
he
heard
that.
M
C
Okay,
that
completes
the
the
consent
part
of
our
hearing.
It
takes
us
to
at
454
271
I
71.
I
is
the
second
consideration
of
an
ordinance,
it's
amended
their
being
amending
by
adding
article
three
sections.
Eighty
six
dash
forty
to
eighty
six
dash
forty
three,
eighty
six
dash
forty

eighty

forty

Eighty
six
dash
forty

C
Thanks
for
your
sticking
to
it
in
your
participation
in
in
this
ongoing
process
and
I
want
to
remind
everybody
that
this
is
not
the
end
of
the
process.
This
is
the
beginning.
We
are
working
to
make
Des
Moines
an
ever
better
City,
and
we
know
that
what
we
do
in
2020
may
need
to
be
altered
either
before
the
end
of
the
year
or
moving
forward
into
the
years
and
decades
to
come.
So
we
ought
to
all
stick
together
and
be
diligent
and
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
being
part
of
this
and
mr.
C
manager
I'm
going
to
quickly
turn
it
over
you
to
you,
knowing
that
we
have
all
spent
a
lot
of
time
on
this
and
is
recently
as
Friday
evening.
The
manager
and
I
spent
some
time
with
the
Alliance
on
the
phone
going
over
some
additional
details
and
I'm
sure
the
rest
of
you
have
spent
a
lot
of
time
on
this
as
well.
So
thank
you,
council
members
for
your
input,
mr.
manager.
Thank.
T
You
Mary
Ann,
Scott,
Sandra
city
manager.
I,
do
want
to
thank
that
broader
community.
Frankly,
for
all
the
input
that
we
have
received,
both
through
emails
through
the
mail
and
voicemails
as
well,
they've
been
an
incredible
amount
of
engagement
by
the
public,
and
we
surely
appreciate
that
it
has
made
the
final
product
better
I
want
to
specifically
thank
the
Community
Alliance
and
working
through
actual
language
and
testing
that
language
with
them
again
to
improve
the
ordinance.
So
thank
you
to
the
community
alliance
with
their
work
as
well.
T
The
Des
Moines
community
is
clearly
becoming
very
engaged
in
this
initiative
and
actually
additional
broader
and
policies
as
well.
This
ordinance
is
only
one
of
many
aspects
that
the
city
is
currently
addressing.
I'll
call
attention
to
our
civil
and
human
rights
work
with
the
bridging
the
gap
we
had
that
joint
meeting
just
a
few
days
ago,
for
which
there
are
another
12
initiatives
and
assignments
that
have
been
given
to
the
city,
manager's
office
and
others
to
work
on,
and
these
are
overlapping
priorities.
With
with
what
we
have
heard
from
our
residents.
T
Most
recently,
I
would
say
that
this
ordinance
is
a
significant
step
forward
in
progress.
This
ordinance
prohibits
racial
profiling.
I
go
further
to
prohibit
all
biased
policing
within
our
city.
The
police,
department,
policies
and
procedures
will
be
posted
online.
There
are
additional
training
requirements
within
this
ordinance.
There
is
the
participation
of
our
own
civil
and
human
rights
in
filing
complaints
and
assistance
in
that
regard
already,
and
there
will
be
annual
reporting
out
as
well.
T
There
is
a
committee
created
to
assist
in
collecting
data
and
researching
best
policies,
I
look
forward
to
that
work
with
the
community,
including
the
Alliance,
and
we
have
broader
goals
beyond
that
that
we
need
to
continue
as
well.
So
with
that
mayor
and
council
I
strongly
recommend
approval
of
this
ordinance.
C
M
I
think
I'd
like
to
thank
first
off
the
Alliance
specifically
Betty
I
know
that
she
spent
a
lot
of
time
on
this
I
know.
Our
council
has
spent
a
lot
of
time
and
I
know
Scott.
You
and
Jeff
Lester
really
put
the
time
in
and
the
chief
to
make
this
a
significant
change
in
ordinance.
That's
going
to
make
a
difference
and
I
would
echo
the
mayor's
comments
that
we're
going
to
keep
moving
forward.

X
X
The
MWC
P
has
been
working
on
anti
racial
profiling
issues
in
the
state
of
Iowa
for
about
six
years,
starting
first
at
the
state
level
and
moving
now
to
work
with
another
ratio:
anti
racial
profiling,
ordinance
in
another
city
and
des
Moines
becoming
the
second
city
to
enact
this
legislation.
We
are
very
pleased.
X
X
We
have
made
major
milestone
in
investing
something
that
wasn't
in
place
before
so
I
want
to
congratulate
everyone
for
this,
at
the
risk
of
repeating
some
of
the
things
that
the
city
manager
said
earlier,
do
want
to
just
emphasize,
because
I'm
still
getting
texts
here
about
the
ordinance,
but
emphasize
this
ordinance
ban
only
bans
racially,
but
it
bans
unbiased
policing.
It
makes
it
clear
that
discriminatory,
pretextual
stops
are
banned
by
the
city
also.
X
It
also
includes
a
duty
to
interfere,
which
means
that
if
someone
has
their
knee
or
if
an
officer
has
their
knee
on
the
neck
of
someone
gasping
for
air
it
that
they
should
interfere,
it
also
includes-
or
we
also
acknowledge-
that
there
was
a
resolution
to
address
data
collection
that
was
solution
was
passed
in
March
and
sets
forth
RFP
for
a
consultant
to
address
this
practice
around
data
collection.
The
ordinance
also
has
a
strong
training
component,
utilizing
person,
glass,
the
escalation
and
cultural
competency
training.
The
ordinance
also
does
have
a
committee
included
in
it.
X
The
community,
policing
code
enforcement
policy
and
practices
review
board.
That
committee
is
now
appointed
by
the
mayor
and
at-large
council
members
represents
that
which
is
a
nod
it's
important
and
they
will
be
reviewing
best
practices
and
doing
reporting
as
well.
So
we
also
just
wants
to
acknowledge
councilman,
Josh,
Mandell,
Councilwoman,
Connie,
bo's'n
and
all
of
the
council
for
listening
to
the
community
and
helping
us
get
to
this
place.
We
also
would
just
like
to
acknowledge
the
city
manager
for
the
the
increase
in
movement
on
this
issue.
As
we,
my
late
night
calls
emails
undeniable.
X
A
B
N
Here,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
okay,
I,
want
to
thank
the
council
members
who
took
the
time
to
thoughtfully
discuss
this
ordinance
over
the
past
week
with
the
Alliance
I
am
very
pleased
by
the
Community
Alliance
have
been
adopted
in
this
ordinance.
I
want
to
thank
our
colleagues,
Alice
cci,
the
n-double-a-cp,
the
ACLU
and
countless
other
groups
for
their
fortitude
in
this
two-year
long
effort
to
make
Des
Moines
of
City
to
dance
racial
profiling.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
broader
Interfaith
community
from
all
races
for
every
call,
every
email
of
support.
N
This
is
a
community
effort
and
I'm
very
appreciative
for
this
move
that
makes
Des
Moines
a
true
that
makes
the
Moines
closer
to
being
a
true
community
police
evening
as
a
palliative
and
I.
Don't
forget
the
efforts
of
one
person
in
particular,
who
spent
two
or
three
hours
with
us
on
the
phone
councilman
Voss
for
his
efforts
as
well.
Thank
you.
Y
Let
me
just
I
just
want
to
go
personal
here.
That
is
our
rewind
and
replay.
When
I
said
before,
when
I
spoke
before
councilman
was
before.
We
know
that
this
is
not
about
anti
policing.
It's
about
anti
bad
policing.
You
know
comments
or
the
phrases,
those
bad
apples,
the
bad
actors
like
the
Derek
show
Vince
will
kill
so
many
black
people.
Now,
in
the
reflected
moves
for
moments,
I,
I,
think
and
I
hope
that
there
are
some
officers
like
Frank
Serpico
or
on
Star
Wars.
These
police
officer
have
a
story
to
tell
so
I'm
wondering.
Y
Are
they
in
the
officers
like
that
within
the
blue
wall?
If
you
want
to
know
more
about
them,
you
can
google
them
now.
Let
me
rewind
again
and
replay
all
the
work
done
since
2018,
the
CCI
racial
justice
team,
community
members
and
some
council
members
with
six
points
banned.
Racial
profiling,
banned
pretextual,
stops
annual
data
collection
for
public
view,
implicit
bias,
de-escalation,
training,
making
marijuana
low-level
enforcement
and
citizen
review
board.
Now,
let's
briefly,
let
me
just
go
to.
Y
Y
Z
So
there
we
go.
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
sir?
All
right
good
evening?
All
and
my
name
is
d'artagnan
Brown
I
live
at
27,
23
Columbia,
it's
in
the
great
Union
Park
Highland
Park
neighborhood
tonight,
I'm
speaking,
though,
to
represent
over
5,000
members
of
Iowa
citizens
for
community
improvement.
Wow
somebody's
got
a
noisy
connection
out
there.
Z
There
we
go,
although
not
all
in
Des
Moines
we're
an
interracial
intergenerational
through
its
organization.
Speaking
up
for
those
who
have
no
voice
tonight,
I
can
see
that
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
done
here
and
boy.
Do
we
appreciate
that,
but
we're
also
seeing-
and
here
we're
really
sensitive
to
the
things
that
have
not
been
said-
the
citizen
review
board
it's
frankly,
it's
mystifying
to
me
as
a
Des,
Moines
resident,
who
wouldn't
want
to
create
and
I,
have
an
opportunity
to
create
a
shared
mission
team.
It
really
makes
Des
Moines
a
welcoming
City.
Z
Instead
of
these
weird
Chamber
of
Commerce
best
city
lists,
we
should
all
be
working
to
create
real
sustainable
human-centered
teams
were
good
cops,
which
we
have
a
whole
lot
of
them,
get
rid
of
bad
guys,
so
we
don't
have
to
be
in
fear
from
either
bad
policing
or
bad
guys,
and
one
more
thing
we
really
emphasized.
As
she
said,
this
is
not
I
hate,
the
police
thing.
We
are
in
fact
very
appreciative
this
year.
Z
As
you
all
well
know,
we
have
lost
several
African
American
young
men
to
violence
and
it
certainly
wasn't
police
violence
that
killed
them.
They
were
criminals
and
we
appreciate
that
the
criminals
or
that
the
police
are
protecting
us,
but
at
the
same
time,
we've
got
to
make
sure
that
this
pretextual
stop
business
and
the
data
collection
which
again
we're
not
hearing
anything,
really
significant
about
that.
Yet
that's
where
the
the
Devils
are
the
details
when
they're,
not
when
they're
not
documenting
we're,
not
knowing
and
that's
where
the
bad
things
happen.
Z
I
was
a
police
reporter
many
years
ago
for
the
Des
Moines
Register
I
know
there
are
two:
the
police
reports
when
they're
talking
on
the
police,
radio
they're
giving
out
a
lot
more
information
than
even
when
we're
trying
to
find
out.
So
it
isn't,
as
if
the
information
isn't
there,
please,
let's
be
honest
about
that.
Z
This
is
not
Ferguson.
This
is
not
Minneapolis.
The
black
man
killed
thus
far
have
not
been
killed
by
police.
In
fact,
we're
deeply
and
I
mean
deeply
grateful
for
our
police
and
using
their
talent
and
resources
to
apprehend
those
who
would
harm
young
black
lives
in
this
town.
But
that's
why
the
six-point
program
is
so
very
important.
We're
not
going
away
we're
here.
This
is
just
another
process
for
us
and
we
appreciate
deeply
the
work.
That's
been
done.
Z
C
AA
Yes,
so
this
is
Daniel
from
ACLU
of
I
or
we
are
proud
to
once
again
stand
with
our
partners
at
the
n-double
a-c-p
and
CCI
and
all
of
the
community
members
across
the
Boyne
who
have
been
demanding
from
bold
and
meaningful
change
in
this
ordinance.
We
see
some
areas
of
bold
and
meaningful
change.
There's
also
some
mechanism
put
in
place
for
ongoing
work
and
some
areas
that
we
think
require
significantly
more
work.
We
urge
the
council
to
continue
to
take
those
bold
and
meaningful
steps.
That's
what
people
want
to
see
incremental
progress
is
change.
AA
At
the
same
time,
bold
and
meaningful
changes
also
what's
needed
so
just
very
quickly
banning
racial
profiling,
banning
biased
policing,
mandating
annual
training,
all
significant
changes
that
we
think
are
positive
that
are
in
this
ordinance
in
terms
of
work
that
will
be
ongoing.
There's
the
resolution
40
beyond
data
collection.
There
is
a
committee
that
has
been
formed.
We
believe
we
should
still
continue
to
think
through
and
talk
about,
and
we
could
see
to
urge
a
citizen
review
board
and
then
on
the
marijuana
possession
resolution
creating
a
task
force.
AA
We
think
that's
a
good
step
in
the
right
direction.
We
know
police
prioritize
all
the
time
every
day,
every
shift.
What
this
would
do
is
the
council
would
direct
the
police
department
about
how
to
prioritize
a
specific,
a
specific
enforcement
area.
What
we
know
that
there
are
clear
racial
disparities,
the
one
area
I
think
we
there's
some
significant
more
work
to
be
done
is
on
banning
pretextual
stops,
so
the
ordinance
does
include
the
words
pretextual
stops.
In
our
view,
it
actually
doesn't
make
the
law
different
pretextual
stops
that
are
racially
discriminatory
right
now
already
banned.
AA
So
we
believe
that
there's
more
work
to
be
done
there
to
make
this
ordinance
an
even
better
ordinance.
So
we
applaud
the
the
good
work.
The
bold
work,
the
meaningful
change.
That's
in
this
ordinance
look
forward
to
continuing
to
work
on
the
parts
that
have
ongoing
work
and
look
forward
to
the
day
when
the
City
of
Des
Moines
will
eventually
ban
pretextual
stops.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AB
AB
We
had
no
idea
what
those
three
minute
meetings
would
end
up
with,
but
it
came
up
with
these
six
bullet
points
of
the
ordinance
that
we
deliver
it
to
the
full
body
of
the
council
in
November
of
2018
I
stressed
highly
that
we
appreciate
all
of
the
work
that
has
gone
into
supporting
these
six
points,
but
as
a
community
member
and
representative
I
think
it
is
very
important
that
we
get
the
language
that
stops.
It
actually
bans
pretextual
stops.
AB
We
know
that
there
are
some
states
that
actually
have
that
language
California
being
the
first
one
that
comes
to
mind
that
they
actually
ban
pretextual
stops.
They
have
been
determined
to
be
detrimental
to
our
health.
I
can
send
you
information
from
personal
experiences
from
my
family
and
friends.
I.
Think
Josh
I
sent
you
a
text
telling
you
how
even
small
amounts
of
marijuana
have
caused
financial
disparities
in
our
community.
AB
So
I'm
asking
the
the
full
council
and
thanking
you
all
at
the
same
time
for
the
work
that
you
put
in
to
create
these
ordinances
and
make
des
moines
a
stronger
place
for
all
citizens
and
visitors
in
des
moines
that
we
become
a
welcoming
citizen
for
our
city
for
all
citizens.
I
think
it
is
important
that
we
do
lower
the
priority
on
small
quantity
marijuana
as
we
do
have
surrounding
states
that
actually
sell
marijuana
for
medicinal
and
personal
use,
so
we
have
to
come
towards
the
21st
century.
AB
L
L
A
I
A
AD
A
A
I
B
A
AD
Hi,
my
name
is
endears
shoemaker
I'm
speaking
for
my
entire
household
in
this
meeting,
as
well
as
the
last
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
it
sounds
like
everyone
is
in
really
full
support
of
this
bill,
even
though
it
doesn't
meet
the
stipulations
that
they
put
out
for
you
initially.
So
I
just
wanted
to
speak
on
that
so
just
reading,
through
the
ordinance
that
you
guys
are
looking
at
passing
today,
it
looks
like
there
are
not
specified
or
significant
consequences
for
an
officer,
not
interfering
or
even
for
an
officer
breaking
this
ordinance.
AD
So
it
looks
like
basically,
it
was
just
up
to
their
supervisor
which,
as
we
know
since
there's
a
lot
of
corruption
and
police
department,
could
mean
that
there's
no
there's
no
consequence
at
all.
So
I
would
really
like
for
the
Iowa
Human
Rights
Council,
to
have
jurisdiction
over
that,
since
you
guys
specified
that
they
did
not
have
jurisdiction
over
that,
I
would
like
it
not
to
just
be
up
to
their
supervisor
where
it
can
just
be
put
under
the
rug.
AD
I
also
like
to
see
that
it
says
that
this
violation
of
this
ordinance
can
discipline
opportun,
including
termination,
confirm
employment.
I
think
we
need
some
more
severe
consequences
for
that
as
an
they
can't
be
rehired
as
a
police
officer
in
Iowa,
or
anything
like
that.
I
think
we'd
like
to
have
a
minimum
consequence,
not
right
for
not
going.
AD
Investigation
or
investigation
I
think
that
you
guys
do
need
to
make
sure
that
you
ban
all
pretextual
stocks,
not
just
discriminating
discriminatory
pretextual
stops,
because
that
can
just
be
kind
of
talked
around
and
say
what
wasn't
discrimination
if
we
ban
all,
they
can't
really
be
playing
with
that.
You
guys
do
really
need
to
get
a
review
board
that
has
some
real
T's,
in
fact
that
Review
Board
did
have
the
kind
of
ability
to
put
those
consequences
down.
That
would
be
wonderful,
so
you
guys
get
some
work
on
that
review
forward.
AD
I
see
that
you
are
putting
together
the
team
to
look
into
how
to
lower
the
priority
of
marijuana
to
the
lowest
Lawrence
law
enforcement.
Priority
I
think
you
guys
should
probably,
if
that's
the
way
that
you
do
things
put
together
a
way
to
find
out
how
you
can
make
a
review
board
the
most
effective
that
it
can
be
because,
as
we
know,
yeah
I'm
going
to
keep
talking,
we
know
there
are
a
lot
of
community
review
boards
in
the
country
that
don't
really
have
any
power.
AD
So
we
need
to
have
a
review
board
that
has
more
power
we're
in
a
different
time
here
than
we
were
in
before.
So
we
really
need
a
significant
community
review
board.
Like
I
said,
your
guys
are
talking
about
marijuana
I
think
you
should
speed
up
the
timeline
on
that
task.
Force
by
October
is
just
a
little
bit
too
long,
and
it's
not
really
something.
AD
That's
going
to
be
that
difficult
for
y'all
to
figure
out
so
I
think
that
you
should
just
go
ahead
and
speed
up
the
timeline
on
that
really
a
week
would
probably
be
all
you
needed.
We
have
a
lot
of
resources,
for
you
can
go
ahead
and
forward.
Those
so
I
think
we'll
go
ahead
and
send
those
to
your
emails.
AD
You
guys
can
figure
out
how
to
make
marijuana,
Louis
law
enforcement
priority
and
go
ahead
and
encourage
the
state
government
to
decriminalize
and
I
also
want
to
point
out
that
there
needs
to
be
no
additional
funding
given
to
the
police
to
complete
these
trainings
that
you
guys
are
putting
in
this
ordinance
the
racial
profiling
trainings.
Everything
like
that
it
needs
to
be
coming
from
the
des
moines
police
is
current
budget,
since
they
are
already
taking
40%
of
the
state
budget,
and
it's
already
seventy
million
dollars.
AD
A
AE
Hey
this
is
Andy,
calling
it
first
last
council
meeting.
Well,
there's
a
lot
to
go
through
something
about
the
bad
apples
phrase
it
gets
overlooked.
A
lot
is
that
bad
apple
will
spoil
the
bunch.
I
didn't
see
a
whole
lot
of
good
cops,
releasing
journalists
or
preventing
them
from
getting
pepper
sprayed
during
the
protests.
I,
don't
know
of
any
consequences
that
have
happened
clearly
site
by
the
community
needs
to
happen.
The
police
aren't
doing
it
themselves.
Oh
DC
has
been
acclaimed
and
credited
with
having
a
good
review
board.
AE
They
don't
just
have
a
citizen
review
board,
they
have
all,
but
one
member
has
to
have
no
current
or
previous
ties
to
the
police.
They're
had
there's
a
team
of
full-time
professionals,
I
think
it's
over
12
that
help
investigate
you,
though.
I
love
that
we're
doing
this
good
stuff
we're
going
to
create
some
things,
but
there
has
to
be
concrete
details.
Some
luck,
jesters
are
not
going,
and
if
you
real
meaningful
things,
then
we
might
see
real
meaningful
changes.
For
instance,
the
pretextual
stops
and
making
marijuana
a
low
priority
issue.
AE
Basically,
if
you
see
some
teenagers
walk
around
a
corner
that
looks
kind
of
fishy,
like
they
might
be
doing
drugs
or
something
really,
it's
just
young
people
being
young
people,
but
it's
a
very
easy
thing
for
a
cop
to
say
like.
Oh,
that
looks
like
they
might
be
doing
something
mischievous.
Let's
put
a
kibosh
on
that
and
that's
why
these
seemingly
simple
or
concrete
measures
are
actually
very
potent
and
important.
AE
Also
on
the
issue
of
trainings
I
agree
that
we
shouldn't
be
throwing
more
money
at
the
police
departments
who
have
fake
trainings.
Some
departments
around
the
company
have
had
trainings
where
they
learn
like
a
warrior,
mentality
and
ecology
and
stuff,
or
they
have
these
kind
of
soft.
You
know,
let's
say
1
to
2
hour
video
sessions
where
they
learned
about
sensitivity,
which
is
a
good
thing,
but
I
guess
I
would
say.
Maybe
that's
the
overview
of
what
kind
of
training
they're
receiving
and
how
its
doled
out.
AF
First
I
will
reiterate
what
other
people
have
said
that
pretextual
stops
should
actually
be
banned
in
this
ordinance
and
to
once
again
reiterate,
people
have
talked
about
lots
of
bad
apples,
so
if
I
think
to
separate
people
have
talked
about
how
most
of
the
cops
in
Des
Moines
are.
Good
and
I
would
like
to
remind
everyone
that
chemical
weapons
were
used
by
police
against
protesters
and
the
press
in
Des
Moines,
so
I.
AF
I
also
have
a
question
about
the
civil
and
human
rights
commission
and
its
relationship
to
the
Office
of
Professional
Standards.
My
questions
are:
what
mechanisms
will
be
in
place
to
ensure
that
the
OFS
will
pass
along
complaints
to
the
Commission
I
see
that
they're
doing
a
similar
duty
is
what
will
the
overlap
of
that
look
like
and
which
office
will
have
more
power
and
which
office
will
be
given
more
weight?
AF
C
AG
AG
B
AH
Thank
Alliance
leaders
for
continued
efforts
to
improve
the
ordinance
while
is
improved
since
the
last
reading.
It
leaves
room
for
continued
improvements.
I
cannot
understand
why
a
citizen
or
community
reborn
has
not
been
included.
I
understand
this
might
be
getting
considered,
but
it
really
should
be
a
high-profile.
It
only
protects
the
police
and
the
constituents
and
honestly,
the
taxpayers.
AH
I
also
hope
that
in
these
discussions
that
the
city
is
considering
a
mental
health
crisis
team,
so
that
police
are
no
longer
responding
to
the
mental
health
needs
of
our
citizens,
but
instead
we
have
trained
individuals
that
can
do
with
it.
As
council
members
are
waiting
for
the
community
feedback
now
I
would
like
to
hear
not
I
would
like
to
hear
the
the
members
of
the
council
will
actually
respond
to
why
they
do
not
support
a
citizen
or
a
community
review
board
of
some
kind.
AH
So,
instead
of
continued
self
praise
being,
although
we
should
praise
those
of
the
Alliance
and
those
that
have
continued
to
work,
I
really
want
to
hear
the
City
Council
members
respond
to
why
they
do
not
support
it.
At
this
time.
Some
of
the
components
that
were
in
the
original
six-point
plan.
Thank
you.
B
V
V
This
ordinance
I
know
you've
been
working
on
it
for
so
long
as
I've
learned
in
these
last
few
weeks
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
and
all
of
the
community
appreciate
your
efforts
in
doing
so,
and
I
want
to
thank
the
council
for
taking
the
time
to
work
with
these
organizations
to
put
this
ordinance
into
place.
However,
after
listening
to
this
call,
it
sounds
like
there
is
still
more
work
that
needs
to
be
done.
I'm
having
a
time
wrapping
my
head
around.
V
Why
this
case
council
will
not
hear
these
organizations
fully
and
will
not
implement
the
changes
that
are
being
requested.
You've
been
hearing
about
this
for
two
years,
you've
been
hearing.
These
organizations
speak
on
this
for
two
years
and
you're
still
not
implementing
things
fully.
It's
hard
to
understand.
All
of
this
is
new
information
for
me
and
I'm
on
board.
I
can't
understand
why
you
guys
aren't
on
board
get
your
heads
together.
Let's
get
this
done.
I
yield
my
time.
A
AI
Yes,
thank
you
very
much.
David
Walker,
with
rustle
of
line
co-chair
the
n-double-a-cp
s
legal
redress
committee
and
remember
the
Community
Alliance
CCI
and
the
ACLU
of
Iowa
I.
Think.
As
we
hear
all
of
the
comments
we
were
on
to
remember
that
the
proposed
ordinance
unequivocally
condemns
and
prohibits
racial
profiling.
It
commands
unbiased
policing
in
that
respect.
By
definition,
it
prohibits
the
consideration
of
any
personal
characteristic
like
race
in
a
law
enforcement
officers,
decision
regarding
police
services
or
law
enforcement.
That
makes
a
lot
of
headway.
AI
The
resolutions
that
Daniel
xeno
and
Betty
Andrews
our
state
n-double-a-cp
president,
as
well
as
criminal
justice
chair
from
the
des
moines
branch,
make
a
long
way
go
on
way
and
ensuring
that
we
will
have
the
data
which
all
agree
are
essential
for
everyone
to
see.
Transparency
through
publication
is
guaranteed
there.
The
the
training
on
the
escalation
and
implicit
bias
are
what
we
have
been
seeking
all
along.
AI
There
is
not
a
citizen
review
board
as
traditionally
understood
in
this
ordinance.
There
is,
however,
a
provision
for
a
strong
community
policing
code
enforcement
policies
and
practices
committee,
which
will
review
the
data
which
will
discuss
what
comes
in
regarding
best
practices,
including
those
with
respect
to
pretextual
stops.
AI
AI
It's
been
the
source
of
too
much
racial
discrimination.
The
data
are
nationally
available
on
that.
It's
an
embarrassment
and
the
the
city
and
county
should
be
proactive
and
lowering
marijuana
law
enforcement
as
a
priority.
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
progress.
I
will
say
this,
there's
more
to
be
done.
Everyone
agrees
to
that
three
minutes,
I'm
sure
the
city
would,
but
it's
all
the
progress
we
made
as
a
result
of
engaged
dialogue
which
must
and
we're
confident
will
continue.
Thank
you
very
much.
B
AJ
We
go:
does
that
sound
better?
Yes,
the
person
for
most
I,
just
wanna,
let
you
guys
know
I'm
a
lifelong
member
of
the
community
here
with
the
ISIS
redstone
the
drum
corps
and
then
working
with
that
organization.
For
four
years,
here's
of
my
45
years
here
in
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
then
I
can
tell
you
from
working
with
kids
that
are
between
the
ages
of
7
to
18
years
of
age.
AJ
They're
scared,
yeah,
they're,
very
scared
about
what
the
future
of
Des
Moines
is
going
to
be
for
them
and
for
me,
as
a
person
that
works
with
those
kids
as
my
responsibility
as
a
mentor
to
teach
them
how
to
maneuver
the
world
as
African
Americans
here
in
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
and
it
is
sad
to
me
that
is
as
many
years
as
our
organization
has
been
along.
We've
been
the
light
of
diversity,
if
you
will
for
the
state
of
Iowa
in
the
City
of
Des
Moines
and
there's
some
great
kids
in
that
organization.
AJ
AJ
This
are
talking
about
making
sure
that
the
chief
gets
to
the
table
with
us
as
well,
so
that
the
kids
can
see
that
they
should
not
fear
the
police
and
I
think
that
will
help
a
lot
if
we
can
get
chief
Wingard
on
board
with
this
as
well.
Thank
you
so
much
for
all
of
the
hard
work
you
guys
put
in
I
appreciate
it.
I
love
living
in
the
City
of
Des
Moines,
but
I
want
to
make
it
better
I
want
to
make
it
better
for
my
kids
as
well.
Thank
you
thanks.
AK
Near
me,
yes,
great
yeah,
I'm,
Harley,
Boulder
Insurance
morning,
fantasies,
yeah
and
the
work
that
we
do
and
I
just
wanted
to
lift
up
the
fact
that
I've
heard,
like
wonderful
praise
for
the
work
that
we've
done
so
far,
and
the
idea
that
this
ordinance
that
you
guys
have
thrown
back
to
the
community
as
a
place
to
start
but
I
just
want
to
remind
everyone.
That's
listening
that
what
we
put
forward
from
CCI
the
n-double
a-c-p,
an
ACLU
as
an
alliance,
was
a
place
to
start.
I.
AK
Think
that
that
was
the
bare
minimum
that
we've
been
asking,
and
it's
really
disheartening.
As
a
member
of
the
community
to
see
this
continue
to
get
walked
back
back
back
piece.
That
really
concerns
me
is
that
the
proposed
policy
and
practice
review
committee
doesn't
actually
include
people.
The
community
can
actually
vote
on
even
the
three
citizens
that
have
to
be
on
that
Review
Board
are
appointed
by
the
mayor
and,
frankly
speaking,
I
know
where
the
mayor
lives,
I,
don't
think
people
that
look
like
me
and
think
like
I
do
live
in
the
same
community.
AK
Oh
I
would
like
to
call
for
a
stronger
citizens
or
people
review
board
real
data
collection
on
what
happens
during
these
stops.
As
someone
who's
been
a
victim
of
pretextual
stops
and
racial
profiling,
it
is
abhorrent
to
me
that
we
don't
have
teeth
in
this
bill
to
hold
cops
accountable
for
holding
me
minute
or
the
night,
so
I'm
exceptionally
disappointed
that
we
haven't
gotten
to
a
place
where
we
can
actually
put
teeth
behind
it
bill.
Thanks
for
your
work,.
AL
AL
You
just
muted
me
again
for
some
reason:
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'll
start
my
statement
off
by
saying
that
what
you
all
did
to
India
by
muting
her
mic
and
then
kicking
her
from
the
meeting,
was
completely
unprofessional
and
really
disrespectful.
She
was
you
know,
being
civil
and
she
was
making
good
points
and
you
all
decided
to
cut
her
mic
off,
even
though
you
gave
other
members
of
the
community
three
minutes
to
speak.
So
I'll
start
with
that.
AL
AL
So
why
you
guys
say
that
you're
gonna
study,
the
decriminalization
of
marijuana,
I,
hope
that
you
can
also
add
in
a
real
study
of
what
it
would
look
like
to
truly
restructure
our
entire
policing
in
this
city,
starting
by
taking
away
fun
from
the
point.
The
Des
Moines
police
department
and
we
putting
them
back
into
the
community.
Also
I
believe
that
this
council
is
so
strongly
look
into
firing.
Chief
10
minute
thanks.
AM
Yeah
hi,
so
I
wanted
to
give
an
example
of
why
the
pretextual
stops
need
to
be
on
here
in
a
priority.
I
had
a
friend
of
colored
that
was
pulled
over
for
having
an
air
freshener
hanging
from
his
rearview
movie.
Here
after
the
officer
pulled
him
over,
he
said
that
he
could
smell
marijuana
coming
from
my
friend's
car,
my
friend
doesn't
do
drugs
and
definitely
doesn't
smoke
marijuana.
So
this
shows
you
that
even
saying
that
they
can't
pull
over
for
racial
profiling,
they
can
find
reasons
to
pull
people
over
that
are
obviously
a
racial
profiling.
AM
I
think
we
need
to
make
sure
the
cover
loopholes
for
them
not
to
be
able
to
do
that,
and
one
way
we
can
do
that
is
making
sure
we
have
in
cities
Citizen
Council,
that's
looking
at
these
things
of
people
that
look
like
my
friend
a
friend
can
be
on
that
board
to
say
that,
yes,
this
is
wrong
and
they
need
to
be
held
accountable.
The
other
thing
I
really
want
to
say
real
quick
is.
We
do
have
great
officers
in
Des
Moines,
there's
no
doubt
so.
AM
O
Hi,
can
you
hear
me
we
can
great
hi.
My
name
is
khari
Teigen
and
I
live
at
one.
Eight
one,
five
61st,
Street
and
I
just
want
to
appreciate
the
moment
to
speak.
I'll,
be
brief
in
my
comments,
but
I
am
in
support
of
an
ordinance
that
the
three
community
groups,
the
ACLU,
CCI
and
n
double
acp
of
push
for
and
I
support,
all
six
points
of
the
ordinance
to
be
addressed,
including
banning
racial
profiling.
O
Pretextual
stops,
including
some
data
collection,
citizens,
review
board
and
then
training,
but
I
agree
with
the
comments
stated
earlier
about
not
providing
additional
funding,
but
instead
reallocation
and
additionally,
I
was
one
of
the
earlier
speakers
stated
considering
what
reorganization
and
disbanding
of
police
departments
have
looked
like
in
other
places,
so
I'll
yield
my
time.
Thank
you.
B
AN
This
is
my
wife's
account.
My
name
is
actually
Adam.
Brewster
I
lived
at
one
six,
one,
seven,
two
Oakland
Avenue,
while
there
have
been
many
great
points
raised
about
what
yet
needs
to
be
done.
My
question
is
very
pointed
when
it
comes
to
pretextual,
stops
I'd
like
to
know
why
the
ban
is
only
on
discriminatory
stops.
Yeah
I
am
an
officer
and
I
have
subconscious
racist
tendencies
and
I'm
trying
to
be
a
good
cop.
AN
I
can
guarantee
you
that
I
will
still
be
using
pretextual
stops
in
a
discriminatory
manner,
even
if
it
is
unbeknownst
to
me.
This
then
means
that
the
ordinance
as
it
was
is
in
effect
no
different
than
how
it
will
be.
So
if
it
is
worth
changing,
then
why
are
we
changing
it
only
to
make
it
appear
as
though
it
is
meaningful
change
when
it
just
keeps
the
status
quo?
That
smacks
of
bad
faith.
AN
AO
Okay,
yeah
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
disgusted
that
this
is
been
going
on
for
two
years
with
no
action.
Dmpd
has
continually
committed
violence
against
the
black
community
and
recently
against
citizens
who
are
trying
to
stand
up
for
black
lives.
This
ordinance
is
the
bare
minimum
and
there's
a
lot
more
work
to
be
done.
Dmpd
takes
40%
of
our
city's
budget,
which
comes
to
seventy
million
dollars.
AO
Zero
dollars
go
to
mental
health.
We
also
have
one
of
the
worst
crime
rates
in
the
country,
so
the
police
are
not
doing
their
job
and
they're
actually
hurting
our
citizens.
The
priorities
of
the
des
moines
government
are
embarrassing.
I
encourage
you
to
take
action
now
and
do
not
give
the
police
any
additional
funding.
I
you
of
my
time.
A
AP
Hi,
it's
been
exhausting
to
get
here,
I'm,
not
very
techy,
I'd
yesBut
than
any
of
it.
Thank
you
for
making
an
effort
to
find
me
well
I
wanted
to
follow
up
on
comments
that
I
heard
Daniel
Dino
make
and
my
colleague
David
Walker
and,
of
course,
Betty
Anders.
We
do
appreciate
that
there.
These
are
important
first
steps.
The
law
is
a
unbiased
policing,
not
just
a
anti
racial
profiling
law,
so
it
has
a
broader
scope
to
address
these
issues
there.
There
is
much
work
to
be
done.
AP
I've
heard
several
speakers
speak
that
the
law
only
restricts
discriminatory
protection
stops
and
that's
true,
but
that
that
that
widespread
abuse
is
condemned
by
the
US
Supreme
Court.
But
it's
really
important
that
it's
in
in
a
municipal
ordinance
that
this
council
is
embracing.
It
will
send
a
significant
signal
to
to
any
rogue
officers.
Then
that
engage
in
that
conduct,
but
we
do
need
more,
you
know
and
Scott
Sanders.
AP
We
appreciate
all
the
work
you've
done,
but
we
we
plan
to
take
you
up
on
your
offer
to
continue
the
dialogue
and
one
of
those
was
the
dialogue
on
discriminatory,
protectionist
aft.
That
would
be
part
of
the
consultants
instructions
that
that
they
would
look
at
the
language
that
we
had
developed
that
tried
to
find
a
middle
ground
with
regard
to
protection
stops
and
to
find
a
way
to
go
ahead,
and
so
that
that's
an
important
piece
of
this.
Likewise,
the
same
is
true
with
the
data
collection.
AP
Several
have
brought
out
how
critical
that
is
to
both
identifying
the
problem,
but
also
to
correcting
it
whether
it
did
question
of
over
or
whether
it
be
individual
officers.
We
need
that
data
we
need
to
have
that
incorporated
into
the
ordinance
any
really
quality,
anti
racial
profiling
or
unbiased
policing
ordinance
will
have
data
collection
as
a
fundamental
piece.
Indeed,
history
almost
always
indicates
that,
once
you
do
the
data
collection,
you
immediately
have
a
significant
reduction
in
pretextual
stops
and
in
discriminatory
racial
profiling.
So
we're
looking
forward
to
the
next
steps.
AP
We
do
appreciate
the
progress
that
has
been
made.
The
other
elements
that
I
think
that
are
still
missing.
We
did
hope.
We
still
hope
it
so
create
some
type
of
a
working
group
that
will
explore
these
citizens
or
civilian
review
board
that
that
is
not
it's,
not
an
either/or
between
the
scene
board
that
we've
created
that
you've
created
that'll,
look
to
systemic
reasons,
but
also
we
know
that
the
community
has
had
serious
misgivings
about
OPF
and
the
quality
and
independence
that
they
in
their
investigations.
AP
And
so
while
we
don't
have
a
specific
civilian
review
board
in
mind
at
this
point,
there
should
be
an
ongoing
effort
to
hear
the
community,
but
that's
an
important
part,
a
very
important
piece
of
this
going
forward
again.
We
thank
you
for
the
progress
that
has
been
made
for
working
with
us
meeting
with
us
for
the
zoom
calls
and
many
other
steps
to
make
this
language
the
to
be
the
progress
that
it
is
again.
Thank
you
very
much
and
thanks
for
the
patience
and
helping
me
get
on.
Thank
you.
A
W
AQ
Can
hear
me
yes
yeah,
so
I
actually
was
going
to
ask
why
Indira
was
cut
off.
She
was
making
important
points
about
defunding
and
demilitarizing
our
police.
It's
important
that
in
our
communities
we
listen
to
black
women,
especially
ones
who
are
offering
their
solutions.
You
arbitrarily
decided
some
citizens
get
three
minutes
and
some
get
one
minute.
My
question
is:
why
is
the
council's
so
comfortable,
silencing
black
women,
this
measure,
this
ordinance
is
woefully
insufficient.
AQ
We
need
to
deprioritize
marijuana
arrests,
create
concrete
consequences
for
police
officers
and
violation
of
this
ordinance
with
an
external
review
board.
By
with
a
strong
citizens,
Review
Board,
we
need
to
explicitly
pretextual
stops.
We
should
start
by
not
providing
additional
funding
to
our
police
while
working
to
reduce
their
bloated
budget.
We
should
take
away
tear
gas
and
rubber
bullets
from
our
police.
AQ
AR
That's
nishinoya
yeah!
Thank
you!
Well,
first,
let
me
start
with
that.
No
one
resident
or
citizen
of
Des
Moines
deserves
two
more
minutes
than
any
other
citizen.
If
you're
gonna
give
someone
as
resident
three
minutes,
you
should
get.
You
should
get
everyone
three
minutes
and
that's
what
we
should
have
started.
So
it
is
a
bit
disrespectful
to
only
give
other
people
one
minute
when
you're
giving
other
three
other
people
three
minutes.
Second,
I
am
I'm
glad
you
all
passed
this
race.
AR
You
are
dealing
with
this
racial
ordinance,
but
you
know
what
a
part
of
me
is
still
saying
if
we
have
a
City
Council
on
a
mayor,
that's
so
scared
to
call
it
police
violence
and
its
own
police
force
for
any
brutality
of
violence
that
they
costume
members
or
community
I'm,
not
really
sure
how
much
I
believe
in
this
effort
that
you're
putting
in
maybe
you
do
believe
in
it,
but
you're
not
showing,
in
your
words,
also
have
to
back
up.
You
know
what
you
believe.
AR
Second,
I
would
say
that
on
the
part
about
training
me,
what
I
would
really
like
to
get
transparency
and
who
you
are
going
to
choose
to
do
the
training.
It
cannot
be
people
you're
friends
with
people
are
going
to
be
nice
to
the
police,
but
people
who
would
truly
would
tell
the
truth,
people
who
actually
talk
about
racism
and
policing
and
how
that
has
contributed
to
the
deaths
of
black
bodies
that
we're
seeing
around
the
country
and
for
decades.
AR
So
please,
don't
forget
some
transparency
in
the
training
of
who
is
doing
that
and
second,
another
part
is
if
we
have,
we
have
officers
who
don't
live
in
the
city,
but
somehow
are
policing
our
communities.
That
does
not
make
sense.
So
mayor
County,
if
you
could
give
us
more
understanding
as
to
why
that's
happening
and
then
the
last
point
is
mayor
County.
AR
And
so,
if
you
could
just
really
give
us
more
information
on
that
part
about
how
you
choose
people
to
be
appointed,
the
Civil,
Service
Commission
and
what
the
requirement
are
and
the
tenure
people
can
be
on
the
Civil
Service
Commission.
That
would
also
be
great
and
to
see
if
there's
diversity
on
that
Civil,
Service,
Commission
and
also
last
point.
Please
give
more
money
to
the
des
moines
civil
rights
and
human
Commission.
AR
AS
I've
heard
a
lot
I
think
that
you
do
need
to
be
commended
because
you
made
some
progress
but
I
agree
with
Harley
and
other
people
you've
been
doing
this
for
two
years
and
you
should
be
making
enough
progress
that
all
six
of
these
of
should
already
have
been
passed
along
ago,
and
so
I
am
very
I.
Think
we
need
answers.
We
need
to
know
definitive
next
steps
with
dates
and
accountable
respond.
AS
People
responsible
for
them
I
want
to
know
an
explanation
for
why
pretextual
stocks
are
not
being
addressed
here
and
this
ordinance
now
and
why
there
isn't
a
community.
We
grew
bored,
yeah
and
I
heard
someone
say
that
was
involved
in
this
process.
Talking
about
getting
a
little
road
I
think
it
was
on
pretextual,
stops
I'm
thinking.
No,
there
is
no
middle
road,
it
has
to
just
stop
and
so
I
you
guys
are
really
on
thin
ice
people.
AS
A
AT
AT
I'm
in
supportable
six
points
I'm
particularly
concerned,
though
about
the
citizens
Review
Board.
There
continues
to
be
a
lot
of
resistance
to
that,
and
also
pretextual
stops
with
both
of
those
items.
I
think
we're
talking
about
relationships
between
people
and,
obviously
the
to
me.
The
bottom
line
is
there's
not
trust.
There
there's
not
solid
relationships
such
that
people,
don't
trust.
Now,
today,
I
had
a
conversation
with
a
friend
who
is
black
and
told
me
incidences
where
he's
stopped.
Frequently
I
stopped
frequently
for
this
suggestion
that
he
has
drugs
on
him
and
he
never
does.
AT
But
you
know
that's
type
of
behavior
and
I.
Don't
think
anybody
on
the
council
or
the
city
manager,
or
even
the
Chief
of
Police
or
myself
can
know
what
it's
like
to
be
a
person
of
color
who
has
stopped
for
no
real
legitimate
reason,
and
that
does
happen.
I
personally
I've
talked
to
a
number
of
white
people,
and
no
one
has
ever
said
that
they
have
been
a
victim
of
a
pretextual.
Stop.
So
to
me
the
smacks
of
racism.
AT
We
have
to
acknowledge
that
acknowledge
why
that's
so
important,
and
especially
with
the
citizens
Review
Board,
why
that's
so
important,
because
we
have
relationships
to
build
there
and
there
needs
to
be
that
trust.
If
there
doesn't
exist,
then
we're
setting
ourselves
up
for
a
continuous
hostile
situation
and
I.
You
know
we
all
live
in
our
community
together.
So
why
can't
we
all
be
treated
similarly?
Why?
AT
Why
is
it
that
some
people
have
to
start
having
you
know
stomachaches
when
the
police
stop
them,
they
have
to
behave
in
a
different
way
when
the
police
are
around
them.
We
need
to
stop
that
and
we,
you
know,
and
and
people
may
balk
and
a
citizen's
review
board,
but
you
know
what
anis,
yes,
all
over
two
minutes
all
right.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
A
A
AU
Hi
I'm,
a
resident
of
Des
Moines
I've
lived
here
for
most
of
my
life
and
I'm,
going
in
support
all
six
points
of
the
Alliance's
plan.
I
wanna
thank
to
see
Iowa
CTA
CCI,
the
ACLU
and
double-a-c-p
for
their
work
on
this.
AU
But
you
know
we
appreciate
the
council
I
appreciate
the
council
bringing
for
us
some
of
these
medic
measures,
but
I
want
to
say
expediency
is,
is
of
the
utmost
right
now.
This
community
deserves
these
measures,
they're
not
extreme
by
any
means.
It
shouldn't
be
this
hard
to
get
this
done,
and
we
ask
of
you
that
you
get
it
done.
Please
quickly.
I
feel
like
this.
Is
it's
a
bit
of
an
embarrassment
you
know
to
be
in
the
city
and-
and
it's
this
hard
thinking
these
these
things
not
when
I
feel
like
they're
common
sense.
AU
I
want
to
go
the
other
memory
community
that
have
stated
no
additional
funding
for
police
training.
I
think
they
have
plenty
of
money
in
their
budget.
I
would
like
to
see
less
money
in
their
budget,
but
I
think
they
can
certainly
find
a
way
to
pay
for
that
I
want
to
say:
we
really
need
to
see
better
police
accountability
in
general.
AV
Yes,
thank
you.
I
am
a
resident
of
West
Des
Moines,
but
joins
today
and
last
week
in
solidarity
with
my
fellow
community
members
and
I
also
support
the
sixth
win
Alliance
put
forward
by
CCI.
I
would
also
like
to
echo
some
other
individuals
comments
regarding
muting
and
kicking
off.
Individuals
such
as
Indira
I
find
it
very
interesting
that,
as.
AV
As
Indira
raised
her
voice,
you
automatically
decided
to
kick
her
off,
whereas
other
people
have
went
well
beyond
that.
One
minute
you've,
given
them
warnings
or
you've,
not
said
anything
at
the
one-minute
mark
or
you
just
politely
reminded
someone
that
they
were
well
over
two
minutes.
You
have
to
be
able
to
hear
your
community
if
you're
going
to
make
actual
change
and
what
I
hear
is
you
all
just
glossing
over
people
mayor
next?
Next?
Next,
like
it's
no
big
deal
like
the
voices
here,
don't
matter,
they
matter.
AC
AD
So
I
would
like
to
talk
about
pretextual,
stops.
I
think
that
everyone
has
seen
that
video
going
around
I
know
it
was
a
few
years
back,
but
that
was
kind
of
making
big
news
over
the
last
24
hours.
I
think
that
that
is
a
good
indication
of
why
these
pretextual
stops
need
to
be
banned
for
every
instance
and
not
just
discriminatory.
I
would
also
like
to
say
that
a
in
regards
to
training
I
think
that
it
is
very
common
knowledge
that
police
training
has
been
shown
not
to
have
any
effect.
AD
So,
while
I
think
it
is
a
good
move.
I
think
that
the
general
way
that
police
trainings
are
put
about
needs
to
change
I,
see
that
you
guys
have
annual
police
trainings
in
there
I
think
that
they
could
definitely
be
more
often
and
I
think
that
they
should
definitely
be
like
one
of
the
first
things
a
police
officer
does
before,
like
they
get
their
gun
or
they're
all
out
on
the
street.
Something
like
that,
so
I
think
we're
gonna.
Add
some
more
language
to
that.
AD
We
need
to
be
looking
at
who
we're
hiring
and
making
sure
that
they
are
not
going
to
be
someone
who
is
going
to
have
these
biases
or
is
going
to
be
inclined
to
be
violent.
I
also
would
like
to
talk
about
the
funds
of
Iowa
City,
like
I,
said:
I,
don't
want
anybody
to
any
more
funds.
To
begin
with,
these
trainings
I
also
saw
someone
talk
about
mental
health,
christ,
teen
crisis
teams.
We
both
already
exist.
AD
The
city
doesn't
really
need
to
admit
them,
but
they
can
definitely
expand
them,
give
them
some
funding
and
a
half.
That's
nice,
okay,
so
they
also
want
us
wanted
to
say
that
Iowa
City,
as
I'm
sure
you
know,
is
looking
in
to
restructuring
their
Police
Department.
And
it's
kind
of
strange
to
me
that
Des
Moines
isn't
doing
the
same
thing.
AD
So
I
think
that
the
next
thing
that
you
guys
can
do
can
be
looking
into
restructuring,
giving
some
police
jobs
like
those
mental
health,
things
and
other
specialty
things
to
specialty
groups
and
teams
that
can
handle
that
and
then
going
ahead
and
taking
that
budget
and
giving
it
right
over
to
them.
I
also
think
a
great
place
to
forget
some
of
those
funds
back
is
by
banning
the
use
of
tear
gas
on
cuz
people
have
said
this
is
good.
AD
Don't
think
anybody
thought
that
was
a
very
good
look,
so
you
can
take
on
those
sorts
of
things,
get
rid
of
those
ban,
the
use
of
tear
gas
rubber
bullets,
any
kind
of
like
you
know,
crowd
control
like
violent
devices
that
police
have
been
using
all
over
the
country
in
the
last
few
weeks
and
use
those
funds
instead,
for
these
mental
health
crisis
seems
to
these
other
specialty
groups.
I
also
would
like
the
city
to
look
into
crime
reduction
policies,
so
that
is
like
getting
rid
of
homelessness.
AD
Decriminalizing
drugs,
getting
it
looking
into
you
know
more
programs
to
help
Amy
didn't
mean.
Oh,
we
haven't
done
anything
okay,
great
I'm,
gonna,
keep
talking
then
looking
and
that's
those
sorts
of
things
that
can
reduce
crime.
What
else?
Oh
yeah
like
reducing
like
looking
into
rehabilitation
and
des
moines
prisons,
things
like
that
I
think
you
guys
can
put
together
a
task
force
to
research
that
there's.
AW
Okay,
it's
not
doing
me
at
I
me
by
the
way.
Okay,
I
just
want
to
say
you
wouldn't
have
to
mute.
You
wouldn't
have
to
mute
people
if
you
wouldn't
be
so
incompetent
about
your
jobs.
We
have
been
fighting
for
a
racial
profiling
ordinance
that
is
the
bare
minimum
for
the
past
two
years,
and
the
City
Council
has
refused
to
act
on
that.
Okay,
this
is
not
your
meeting.
This
is
our
meeting
the
residents
of
Des
Moines
you
work
for
us.
AW
Don't
forget
that
all
right,
the
money
that
the
City
Council,
that
the
police
department's
getting
the
40%
of
the
city's
budget,
that
could
be
going
towards
anti-racist
policies
like
better
housing
for
black
and
brown
people,
better
education,
better
health
care,
there's
fuckness,
food
deserts
and
lack
of
health
centers
across
the
city
where
black
and
brown
people
live.
That's
not
right.
AW
AX
All
right,
can
you
hear
me
we
can
well
I
want
to.
First
of
all
thank
thank
the
mayor
for
his
participation
in
in
these
proceedings.
I
think,
for
the
most
part,
you've
done
a
good
job
and
you've
been
out
there,
but
the
distressing
thing
for
me
is
I,
received
a
welfare
call
from
CCI
about
how
I've
been
doing
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks
and
I
think
for
community
organization
to
reach
out
to
me
to
see
how
I'll
do
it
personally
as
a
person
of
color.
AX
Now
I'm
going
to
get
into
marijuana,
we
all
know
that
it's
a
medicinal
drug
here
at
Iowa,
but
many
of
the
symptoms
and
diagnosis
that
should
be
covered
are
the
criminalization
details
of
the
ordinance
before
us
right
now
or
week.
At
best
des
Moines
should
take
the
example
from
cities
from
similar
meaning
and
the
legalized
barrel
marijuana
and
strongly
encourage
state
level
administrators
to
do
the
same
statewide.
AX
AX
AY
Citizens
and
mayor
County
and
the
members
of
City
Council
for
giving
me
the
opportunity
to
speak
tonight,
I
typically
don't
show
up
to
address
the
government,
but
I
don't
take
it
for
granted
that
as
a
American
I
get
to
do
that.
So
first
I
want
to
say:
I
commend
everybody.
Who's
worked
on
this
effort
from
the
city,
leadership
to
community
leadership,
I'm
an
african-american
woman
with
a
28
year
old
son
that
I
worry
about
constantly
every
time
he
leaves
I'm
concerned
about
him
and
no
matter
what
he
does.
AY
Wait
a
minute
you
get
out
of
police
academy
and
then
they
get
trained
on
the
street
and
I
think
that
a
continuing
education
for
police
officers
not
just
in
racial
bias
but
in
professionalism
and
Indy
escalation,
is
a
good
start
and
so
the
funding
that
goes
into
training
police
officers
I
do
commend
you
guys
for
for
looking
at
that
annual
training.
If
you
can
do
it
more,
it's
better,
but
definitely
a
pre.
A
AZ
Just
want
to
express
thanks
for
this
discussion
and
also
to
express
my
disappointment
that
voices
that
we
need
to
be
upholding
are
being
silenced.
A
few
seconds
means
nothing
except
it
means
a
lot
when
we
are
silencing
the
voices
of
young
black
women.
It's
uncalled
for
and
I
hope
this
can
be
fixed
for
the
next
city
council
meeting.
This
is
my
first
one.
I
don't
have
anything
else
prepared,
but
I
fully
support
the
things
that
are
being
shared
now
and
her
voice
needs
to
be
heard.
A
BA
Hi
Colleen
Kenny
6:32
40th,
Street
Des
Moines
speaking
as
an
individual
I
urge
the
City
Council
in
April
2000
18
to
pass
a
racial
profiling
ordinance.
Here
we
are,
we
need
to
ban
all
pretextual
stops
des
moines
would
do
well
to
look
at
Austin
and
Ann
Arbor's
community
police
oversight,
Review
Commission
models,
I
have
two
questions
with
the
City
Council
publicly.
Just
with
the
city,
please
just
disclose.
If
municipal
funds
have
been
paid
for
police
misconduct
lawsuits
and
identify
those
individuals,
not
one
dollar
should
come
from
taxpayers
to
pay
for
a
settlement.
BA
Where
is
the
legal
language
in
this
ordinance?
That
requires
any
claims
to
be
paid
by
the
individual?
If
officers
have
qualified
immunity,
we
see
no
accountability.
Taxpayers
should
not
bear
the
brunt
for
their
cost
of
civil
rights
violations,
excessive
force
or
other
misconduct,
and
my
final
question
is:
have
city
council
members
received
campaign
donations
from
any
public
safety,
related
unions,
chapter
2
point
4,
4
code
of
ethics
defies
conflict
of
interest
and
when
elected
officials
are
required
to
attain
from
voting.
Thank
you.
A
BB
All
right,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
we
can
perfect.
So
first
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
mayor
Cownie
mentioned
that
this
is
just
the
beginning.
He's
been
in
office
for
what
16
years
now
I
don't
feel
like.
This
is
a
timely
manner
and
it's
quite
upsetting
Joe
Gatto
is
a
coward
for
waiting
to
for
his
comments
until
after
the
public
speaks.
BB
Additionally,
the
setup
of
this
meeting
is
inappropriate
when
we
are
talking
about
racial
inequalities
and
racial
justices.
Those
should
be
put
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
I
understand
that
they
are
voted
on
and
the
progression
of
the
meeting
is
established
beforehand,
but
we
need
to
be
putting
black
voices
at
the
front.
End
of
this
conversation
and
the
treatment
towards
indira
was
completely
unacceptable.
I
yield
my
time.
BC
BC
AJ
A
friend
of
mine
on
father's
day
told
his
daughter,
as
they
were
walking
out
of
Walmart,
that
they
can
go,
get
some
ice
cream
and
in
her
excitement
she
runs
out
of
Walmart.
But
this
black
man
decides
the
pause
and
not
run
after
her
because
of
what
it
looks
like
when
a
black
man
runs
out
of
a
store.
So
these
types
of
experiences,
when
this
little
black
girl
turns
around
to
ask
her
daddy.
AJ
Why
aren't
you
chasing
me
and
he
says
to
her
baby
girl
I
can't
chase
you
simply
because,
if
I
run
out
of
this
store,
I
will
put
you
at
risk
and
me
at
risk,
but
yet
we
still
hold
these
truths
to
be
self-evident.
So
I
urge
you
all
to
hear
the
voices
that
are
concerned
to
hear
the
people
that
are
worried
and
to
address
their
pain.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
A
BD
Just
want
to
say
that
I
am
incredibly
disappointed
in
the
Des
Moines
City
Council
I
mean
he's
been
handed
from
the
people
from
the
people,
exactly
what
we
want.
We
give
you
six
points.
We
said
the
bare
minimum
for
racial
profiling
in
Des.
Moines
is
this.
This
is
how
we
want
you
to
tackle
the
issue
you're
acting
like
this
is
a
first
step
in
a
series
of
steps,
but
I'm
wondering
what
the
objectives
are
in
your
pants.
Seemingly
none
because
you're
the
people
with
power.
BD
You
are
the
only
people
who
have
the
power
to
pass
this
racial
profiling
ordinance
and
you
fail
to
do
it
and
time
and
time
again,
you're
failing
the
city,
so
I
am
I,
am
forced
to
ask
myself
the
question:
what
is
the
purpose
of
the
City
Council?
What
is
the?
Why
are
all
of
you
making
so
much
money
to
do
this
job?
If
none
of
you
can
do
it?
You're
completely
incompetent?
BD
And
it's
so
disgusting
to
hear
people
who
have
experienced
police
brutality
and
violence
who
have
been
tear-gassed
who
have
been
shot,
who
have
been
beat
up
by
the
Des
Moines
police
department?
Tell
you
hey:
our
lives
are
at
risk.
We
are
fighting
for
our
lives.
You
are
the
only
people
who
have
one
man
work
to
save
our
lives.
I
know
it's
been
a
minute
and
you
all
choose
to
do
nothing.
You
choose
to
do
nothing.
BD
We,
because
you
are
wedded
to
the
police
department,
to
the
violent
Police
Department
that
last
week,
two
weeks
ago,
was
on
the
streets
beating
up
my
friends,
tear
gassing
them
and
arresting
reporters.
It's
disgusting
and
it's
evil.
I,
don't
know
how
you
sleep
at
night.
Frankly,
I,
don't
know
what
you
think
of
yourselves,
but
I
think
you're.
All
disgusting
individuals,
Thank
You,.
P
P
P
BE
P
Would
like
to
hear
that
I
cut
out
some
of
the
rest
of
what
I
said
and
cut
to
the
chase.
I
have
a
complete
lack
of
confidence
in
this
process.
Inner
city
administrators
in
the
council,
but
I
do
have
hope.
I
have
a
short
series
of
actions
that
I
think
you'd
go
a
long
ways
to
solving
this
I
would
like
the
council
to
instruct
city
manager,
Scott
Sanders
to
fire
chief
winter.
Then
I
would
like
the
council
to
fire
Scott
Sanders,
the
city
manager,
then
I
would
like
mayor
County
to
resign.
P
BF
John
Hardy
I
live
in
Rosabelle
area,
I
grew
up
here,
went
to
Roosevelt
and
I
graduated
from
Drake
Law
School
in
2016.
I
want
to
tell
you
about
my
first
jury
trial.
The
only
charge
was
possession
of
marijuana.
The
defendant
was
a
young
black
man
about
19
years
old
and
after
paying
the
prosecutor
to
work
up
the
case
and
paying
me
to
defend
the
case,
because
there
was
no
plea
deal,
we
went
and
had
a
jury
trial
at
the
Polk
County
Courthouse,
a
district
judge,
two
attorneys,
a
court
reporter
sheriff's
deputy.
BF
We
all
spent
two
days
at
the
courthouse
full-time
paid
by
the
government,
various
levels
state
county
and
we
paid
the
police
officer
to
come
testify.
We
paid
a
state
scientist
to
come
authenticate
the
lab
results
to
confirm
that
it
was
indeed
marijuana
and
we
pulled
40
neighbors
into
a
jury
pool
for
the
first
day.
Once
we
got
our
jury.
The
signatures
spent
two
days
with
us
at
the
courthouse
and
I
just
want
to
say.
BF
If
the
Des
Moines
police
department
is
directed
to
enforce
marijuana
laws,
the
people
who
are
directing
them
to
enforce
those
laws
are
committing
to
that
level
of
expenditure
of
resources.
If
the
defendant
doesn't
cave
and
enter
a
plea
deal
we're
setting
up
a
domino
effect
for
all
of
that
and
by
the
way,
now
that
the
corona
virus
has
ston
out
of
the
dirt
a
lot
of
the
jury
trials
that
are
happening
these
days.
Everybody
else
is
waiting
for
court
space.
All
the
civil
jury
trials.
Important
criminal
trials
are
going
to
be
combating
for
those
resources.
A
BG
Can
awesome
awesome,
cool
cool
cool,
so
I
just
want
to
say
what
everyone
has
been
saying
to
you,
so,
basically
just
echoing
a
bit
but
in
a
more
direct
way,
so
that
maybe
you
can
get
it.
The
City
Council
needs
to
check
its
implicit
bias.
Just
because
we
can't
see
faces
doesn't
mean
we
can't
guess
the
race
of
folks
based
off
of
their
language
or
the
things
they've
said
to
indicate
rate
their
race
within
their
speeches,
white
people
are
getting
more
time.
BG
BG
BH
Can
you
hear
me
we
can
right.
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
it's
absolutely
reprehensible
that
you're
refusing
to
listen
to
your
constituents,
specifically
Indira
and
Natalie
I,
just
finished
my
freshman
year
at
Drake
University,
and
although
financial
consequences
should
not
be
the
only
reason
you
pay
attention
to
the
people
you
serve
me
and
many
peers
have
the
potential
to
settle
in
Des,
Moines
long
term.
A
city
we
all
know
is
struggling
with
retaining
young
people,
consequently
contributing
to
the
local
economy.
BH
Long
term
I
would
just
like
to
remind
you
that
the
people
are
watching
the
young
people
are
watching
and
you
will
not
get
away
with
this
missing
your
constituents
in
such
a
disgusting
manner.
The
officers
that
you're
so
quick
to
defend
have
been
out
on
the
streets
over
the
last
few
weeks,
brutalizing
my
friends
and
my
organizer
friends,
who
are
fighting
for
black
lives
and
frankly,
it
makes
me
ashamed
to
call
them
away.
My
home
I'd
also
like
to
uplift
Carter
white,
calling
Joe
Gatto
a
coward.
We
were
all
thinking
it.
Thank
you.
A
BE
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
am
here,
I'm,
not
comfortable,
giving
my
address
you
guys
should
have
that
information.
I
just
wanted
to
ask
why
you
have
at
least
two,
if
not
more,
but
confirmed
to
Des
Moines
police
officers
that
have
been
previously
not
charged
but
previously
found
to
be
practicing
racially
racial
profiling.
BE
One
speaker
earlier
spoke
on
it
about
the
viral
video.
That's
gone
around
just
in
the
last
24
hours,
that's
from
a
few
years
ago,
but
coyotes
is
still
a
Des
Moines
police
officer
and
in
addition
to
there
was
another
gentleman
that
I
wasn't
familiar
with
his
case,
but
somebody
had
mentioned
it.
His
name
was
Greg.
He
is
also
still
a
Des
Moines
police
officer.
So
I
really
just
don't
understand
how
you
expect
to
reform
a
department
that
has
shown
that
it
it's
racially
profiling.
That
is
stopping
people
for
no
reason
it
is
brutalizing.
BE
People
in
the
streets
that
are
peaceful
protesters,
cops
I,
have
seen
it
time
and
time
again
in
cops.
Tell
protesters
they're
not
allowed
to
stand
in
the
street,
and
then
they
take
up
this
space
in
the
street
for
themselves.
That's
not!
Okay
and
I.
Don't
understand
how
you
can
possibly
min-hee
form
this
des
Police
Department,
when
these
officers
are
still
out
there
walking
around
still
out
there
racially
profiling.
I
also
think
it's
absolutely
disgusting
that
you
can't
take
the
time
to
listen
to
your
constituents.
You
give
us
a
minute
each
and
it's
disgusting.
BE
You
should
be
able
to
listen
to
your
constituents
because
we
are
who
you
work
for
you
work
for
us.
You
don't
work
for
yourselves,
you're,
not
supposed
to
be
working
for
the
Des
Moines
police
department,
and
you
really
shouldn't
be
driven
by
money.
You
should
be
driven
by
keeping
the
people
in
your
community
safe
and
you're,
not
doing
that,
you
need
to
do
better.
I
yield.
My
time.
BI
Hi,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes
thanks?
My
name
is
MK
Anderson
I
would
like
to
say
that
I'm
in
favor
of
all
six
points
of
the
Alliance's
plan,
including
back
in
the
citizen,
review
board,
stopping
all
pretextual,
stops
and
collecting
and
releasing
the
data
on
these
stops.
There
needs
to
be
consequences
for
the
police
who
break
this
ordinance
and
trainings
need
to
be
done.
BI
Transparent,
II
and
I
would
like
to
go
back
and
address
one
of
the
first
comments
made
by
someone
who
said
we're
not
Ferguson
we're
not
Minneapolis
and
I
moved
to
Des
Moines
from
Minneapolis
and
I
I
want
to
say
that
George
Flo,
Lloyd's
murder
was
the
straw
that
broke
the
camel's
back.
This
revolution
came
from
years
of
the
city,
silencing
or
constituents,
not
believing
black
people
and
non
black
people.
People
excuse
me
a
non
black
people
of
color
experiences.
BI
Protecting
the
people
in
power,
ignoring
problems
in
our
community
and
refusing
to
accept
and
adjust
to
community
groups
input,
all
of
which
I
have
seen
and
continue
to
see
in
Des
Moines,
and
in
this
call
we
are
not
immune
to
becoming
another
Minneapolis.
It
really
feels,
like
the
council,
is
doing
this
to
stop
the
protests
or
to
have
something
to
point
to
and
feel
like
you
did.
Something
passing
the
ordinance
as
is
is
unacceptable.
It's
not
enough.
If
you
want
us
to
stop.
BI
K
Yes,
I
have
a
few
concerns.
First
off
I'm
hearing
a
lot
of
people
believe
that
this
is
some
sort
of
that
it
is
in
a
systemic
issue,
and
if
it's
not
the
systemic
issue
with
a
dmpd,
why
don't
we
have
the
support
of
the
police
she's
in
the
police
in
general
and
establishing
anti-racist
law
enforcement
policies
if
they
aren't
racist?
Why
are
they
against
making
policies
that
are
anti-racist?
That
doesn't
makes
sense
to
me
also
we're
up
it's
across
the
whole
country,
so
United
in
brutalizing
people
protesting
black
lives.
K
If
again,
if
they're
not
really
racist,
if
in
just
a
few
bad
cops,
why
are
they
still
against
people
we're
trying
to
stand
up
for
black
lives?
The
ordinance
itself
is
entirely
ineffective
right
now,
without
a
citizen
to
be
award,
it
might
be
better
than
one
of
the
versions
of
it,
but
it's
entirely
ineffective.
It's
like
a
car
without
an
engine,
because
we
know
the
police,
chief
and
city
council
don't
care
if
police
officers
do
things
like
chew
gas
children.
K
We
know
that
days
ago,
when
local
trucks
tried
to
run
in
protesters
and
actually
hit
some.
That
police
did
nothing
that
is
washed
and
they
have
not
charged
anybody.
Who've
tried
to
get
protesters,
so
we
know
that
the
police
are
not
interested
in
holding
anybody
accountable
in
the
state
councils,
not
interests
in
that,
so
a
better
citizen
to
reward.
K
This
is
just
some
rules
that
nobody's
going
to
enforce,
because
it's
already
people
breaking
rules
like
the
officers
charged
with
misconduct
already
that
have
been
talked
about
they're
still
on
the
force,
so
we
know
that
nobody's
enforcing
the
rules
they're
already
on
the
books,
so
none
of
this
makes
sense.
Donna
citizens
are
real
or
I
also
just
want
to
say
that
it
seems
like
you're,
wasting
time
waiting
on
people
who
mostly
agree
with
you.
K
BJ
Is
actually
Matthew
Heron
I
am
Sara
Ray's
husband.
We
are
watching
together,
I'm
at
3807
Arianna
trail
to
mine,
five
zero.
Three
one,
zero
I
would
like
to
know
why
the
City
Council,
as
well
as
the
rest
of
state
government,
is
taking
so
long
to
take
any
action.
I
understand
that
there
are
bills
on
the
table
now
it's
time
that
we
actually
get
something
signed
and
passed.
There's
no
reason
why
government
is
the
slowest
in
industry
in
the
United
States.
BJ
At
the
same,
and
now
we
have
all
established
that
there
is
systemic
racism
and
we
know
that
our
steps
that
can
be
taken
yet
none
have
actually
been
taken.
Yet
we've
had
competition,
I
think
des
moines
grows
tired
of
the
lip
service
in
that
now
is
the
time
for
action.
You
talked
about
decriminalization
well,
I.
Tell
you
what
put
together
your
task
force
through
eight
hours
of
research,
both
the
next
day,
get
it
done.
You
talk
about
reform
of
the
justice
system
of
the
cops
of
the
cops
absolutely
put
together.
BJ
A
BK
Right
so
I
would
just
like
to
echo
the
countless
other
citizens
that
have
requested
to
hear
and
Duras
speak
and
I
would
like
to
make
a
more
cleanin
gesture
to
the
members
of
the
City
Council,
who
have
also
not
requested
that
she
speak
as
well.
So
with
that
being
said,
I
would
like
to
yield
the
rest
of
my
time
to
indira.
Thank
you.
Q
Q
Q
Q
Please
I
think
that
there
should
be
more
work
done
in
this
time
frame,
especially
when
there
is
an
availability
of
time
available
with
decriminalization
of
marijuana.
There
must
be
a
purging
of
previous
arrests
if
the
law
changes
and
evolves
should
not
the
lives
that
were
affected
by
those
evolving
laws,
change
in
the
spirit
of
progress
and
Fairplay
that
we
all
abide
within
the
social
contract
I
yield
the
rest
of
my
time.
BL
BL
BL
This
is
where
a
lot
of
the
treatment
of
bad
actors,
where
the
rules
for
that
is
often
laid
out
and
I,
think
that's
going
to
be
a
critical
component
in
determining
who
reviews
these
things
and
what
happens
to
bad
actors
and
what
happens
to
police
who
are
complicit
in
not
stopping
their
co-workers
or
just
staying
silent.
Thank
you.
BL
C
C
C
C
B
AC
Yeah,
if
we're
going
to
take
comments,
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
I
appreciate
everybody
who's
taken
the
time
to
take
part
in
the
meeting,
but
I
also
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
Betty.
Andrews
I
know
that
she
has
worked
diligently
on
this
ordinance,
but
you
know
it's
taken
a
quote:
it's
taken,
cooperation
from
Scott
Sanders
and
the
legal
team
they've
also
put
in
many
many
many
hours
and
I
just
want
others
to
know
that
while
this
was
being
worked
out,
Scott
was
in
in
communication
with
council
members.
AC
So
we
we
were
listening
and
we
were
giving
suggestions
and
we
were
all
working
on
this.
So
I
just
want
to
thank
Betty
and
Scott
and
in
our
legal
department
for
everything
that
they've
done
and
chief
Wingert
was
part
of
those
conversations
also.
So
it
really
has
taken
everybody
to
work
together
to
to
get
to
where
we
are
today
and
I
really
do
believe
that
we
are
building
better
relationships
out
there.
AC
I
know
I
met
with
Laurel
Clinton,
probably
a
year
or
so
ago,
and
I
sat
down
with
her
coffee
and
listen
to
her
and
I
believe
that
that
we
do
have
better
relationships
and
we're
going
to
continue
building
those
relationships
and
I'm
committed
as
I
know,
everybody
on
council
and
our
citizens
we're
interested
in
listening
to
each
other
and
building
a
better
community.
So
I
just
wanted
to
to
say
that,
and
those
are
my
comments.
Thank
you.
BM
Anchor
Mary
yeah
I
just
have
a
few
comments
and
I'm
probably
going
to
echo
some
of
what
Linda's
already
said,
but
I
gotta
thank
Betty
Andrews,
what
a
fantastic
job
working
late
hours
working
the
minutiae
that
we
need
to
get
to
to
get
to
this
point.
I
also
want
to
thank
Scott
in
the
legal
team.
Yes,
we
have
been
getting
phone
calls.
Yes,
we've
been
getting
emails,
we've
been
trying
to
make
sure
that
we're
on
top
of
this
and
and
I
want
to
thank
both
of
those
people
too.
BM
It
helped
us
get
through
this
and
get
us
to
this
point.
The
one
thing
that
I
think
I've
heard
a
lot
of
people
say
is
we
need
to
get
something
done
we
take
too
long
and
yes,
this
has
been
a
two-year
process
and
I
applaud
the
Alliance
for
coming
forward
and
putting
the
tangibles
that
we
need
to
see
to
make
this
community
better.
I
agree.
I,
think
we've
got
more
work
to
do
we'll
keep
making
this
going.
BM
D
D
Realize
recognize
that
that
there
are
a
lot
of
changes
that
we
need
to
make
and
some
of
those
changes
will
be
uncomfortable
for
for
many
people
in
the
community.
I
promised
to
continue
to
engage
in
meaningful
dialogue
in
the
topics
on
the
table
and
just
a
quick
shout
to
the
alliance
members,
a
loaded
room
with
attorneys.
But
we
are
on
our
way
and
thank
you
for
your
patience
and
cooperation.
A
AD
B
AD
So
basically,
what
I
want
to
say
is
that
the
reason
I
was
no
longer
on
the
zoom
call
is
because
I
was
kicked
from
the
zoom
cause.
I
just
want
to
clarify
that
to
everybody,
I'm
really
grateful
to
everyone
who
kind
of
stunt
stood
up
for
me
since
I
wasn't
able
to
do
that
for
myself,
but
I
did
manage
to
get
all
the
rest
of
my
points
out
as
Natalie
beta
as
my
friend
who,
let
me
talk
on
her
account,
but
you
guys
did
not.
Let
me
talk
on
my
sister's
account.
AD
So
basically,
all
I
want
to
say
is
that
if
you
guys
are
making
a
vote
on
this
today,
I
would
hopefully
that
is
just
passed
in
a
second
reading,
so
that
you
guys
can
take
into
consideration
all
the
notes
that
people
have
made
for
the
third
reading.
I
hope
you
guys
were
taking
notes,
because
there
were
a
lot
of
things
that
a
lot
of
people
said
that
needs
to
be
added
into.
AD
I
Thank
You
mayor
so
I
want
to
thank
everyone
who
came
to
speak
speak
to
us
tonight
also
want
to
particularly
thank
the
the
folks
on
the
Alliance.
You
know.
A
lot
of
those
folks
have
worked
with
us
on
this
ordinance,
paying
attention
to
critical
details
and
working
with
us
through
multiple
rounds
of
edits,
Sharon,
Betty,
Daniel,
Laurel,
Laurie,
pastor,
daddy
Russ,
Herbie
and
many
others,
and
the
ordinance
has
consistently
been
improved
because
of
your
diligence
and
dedication.
I
know
one
of
the
things
that
we
all
talked
about
is
the
importance
of
listening
to
the
public.
I
I
Often
times
you
know,
we
talk
about
the
the
listening
piece,
but
we
don't
always
share
what
we
hear
or
how
it
shapes.
How
we
act
and
I
know.
This
has
been
a
long
process,
but
I
want
to
share
some
of
what
I've
heard
in
this
process
going
all
the
way
back
to
the
beginning
and
how
I'm
carrying
that
with
me
to
inform
how
we
move
forward
when
I
was
relatively
new
to
the
council.
I
We
heard
from
one
of
those
community
members
tonight
Laurel
Clinton
and
she
talked
repeatedly
about
her
worry
of
her
son's
being
pulled
over
because
they
were
black
then
that
summer,
in
between
community
meetings,
a
video
of
two
young
black
men
getting
pulled
over
in
Des
Moines
goes
viral
that
that
particular
video
I
think
several
of
our
speakers
mentioned
tonight.
I
see
an
officer
claiming
to
smell
marijuana
and
even
stating
that
one
of
the
young
men
was
acting
like
you
had
a
gun
now
neither
marijuana
or
a
gun
were
found
during
that
stop.
I
I
More
recently,
you
know
the
death
of
George
Floyd
has
focused
our
attention,
but
one
of
the
other
deaths
that
it
is
stuck
out
to
me
and
that
hit
home.
It
maybe
got
less
attention
than
George
Floyd,
but
it's
happened
in
this
same
time.
Frame
a
black
man
in
police
custody
in
Tacoma
Washington
made
news
because
he
died.
The
death
of
Manuel
Ellis
has
been
ruled
a
homicide
and,
among
his
last
words,
were
the
infamous
phrase
uttered
by
Eric,
garner
and
George
Floyd.
He
said
I
can't
breathe.
I
I've
been
on
countless
calls,
zoom
meetings,
phone
calls
with
Laurel
Betty
and
many
others
in
the
Alliance
these
past
few
weeks.
But
beyond
that,
one
of
the
things
that
that
sticks
out
to
me,
the
folks
in
our
community
working
for
racial
justice
working
to
end
racial
profiling,
working
to
change
the
way
we
do
policing.
I
They
know
all
too
well
the
consequences
when
we
come
up
short
for
them.
The
urgency
of
the
work
isn't
just
a
matter
of
right
and
wrong.
It's
a
matter
of
life
and
death,
and
one
of
the
things
that
I
hear
from
the
community
is
that
they're
asking
that
we
act
with
the
same
awareness
and
the
same
urgency
and
I
I
will
tell
you.
I
will
work
towards
racial
justice,
where
the
urgency
of
knowing
life
depends
on.
I
They
want
transparency,
they
want
communication
from
us
and
they
want
folks
like
us
to
do
the
work.
I
think
we
heard
that
echoed
a
few
times
tonight
too.
They
want
us
to
do
the
work
and
you
know
oftentimes
the
way
we
work
as
a
council.
It
can
make
it
difficult
for
the
public
to
understand
our
process,
what
we're
doing
or
even
how
to
participate.
I
And
I
think
we've
tried
to
get
better
at
that.
That's
one
of
the
pieces
to
listening
and
learning
and
and
every
time
we
do
something,
and
we
get
a
piece
wrong.
We
have
to
be
committed
to
learning
from
that
and
figuring
out
how
to
do
it
better.
How
to
make
it
clear
how
to
let
folks
know
about
the
work
we're
doing
part
of
that
process
is
the
way
that
we
continue
discussions
to
get
for
the
current
draft
of
the
ordinance.
I
You
know
and
the
transparency
piece
if
there's
been
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
between
the
Alliance
and
members
of
the
council
and
the
city
manager
and
the
mayor,
there's
been
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
and
I.
Think
we've
heard
that
reflected
in
some
of
the
comments
from
alliance
members
doesn't
mean
that
we
don't
have
a
long
way
to
go
still,
but
what
we've
done
and
how
we've
improved
the
ordinance
in
front
of
us.
It's
significant
and
one
of
the
pieces
to
try
and
make
what
we
do
a
little
bit
more
transparent.
I
You
can't
see
every
conversation
or
everything
that
influences
how
someone
thinks,
but
we
did
include
on
our
agenda
tonight.
So
it's
linked
to
invoke
scan,
see
it
for
themselves.
If
the
letter
that
we
received
from
the
Alliance
last
week
outlining
their
reaction
to
the
ordinance
that
was
in
front
of
us
two
weeks
ago
and
key
issues
and
changes
that
they
wanted
to
see,
and
we
see
some
of
those
key
issues
incorporated
in
this
ordinance.
I
There's
been
a
lot
of
discussion
about
the
community,
policing
and
code
enforcement
policy
and
practice
review
committee.
That
came
the
Alliance
and
they
requested
that
be
part
of
the
ordinance
and
we've
added
that
committee
with
members
of
the
public
appointed
by
the
council.
It
will
review
data
and
practices,
make
recommendations
and
provide
an
annual
report
that
will
be
publicly
accessible.
I
That's
another
important
change
that
the
Alliance
brought
to
us
and
that
is
reflected
here,
I'm
not
going
to
detail
every
single,
important
change
in
the
ordinance,
but
but
for
those
who
have
questions
about
the
way
we
work
in
the
details
to
the
work,
I
hope
you'll.
Take
a
look
at
those
pieces
and
track
what
we've
done
and
I
know
that,
while,
while
we've
made
progress.
I
It's
still
a
work
in
progress,
but
the
progress
that
we've
made
over
the
past
few
weeks
will
provide
a
stronger
foundation
for
the
work
we
do
in
the
future.
I
know
folks
have
raised
the
six
points
that
made
up
the
initial
policy
request
that
came
out
of
the
the
meetings
in
the
summer
of
2018
and
in
the
alliance's
letter
last
week
as
part
of
their
effort
to
work
collaboratively.
I
One
of
the
things
that
I
committed
to
when
we
had
this
discussion
two
weeks
ago,
was
to
bringing
a
resolution
to
the
council
at
this
meeting
that
provides
the
path
forward
on
making
marijuana
the
lowest
enforcement
priority.
That's
something
that
I've
talked
about
when
I
first
ran
for
office
and
I've
talked
about
it
frequently.
Since
then,
we
know
that
there's
a.
BL
I
Racial
disparity
in
the
way
our
marijuana
laws
are
enforced,
Viola
told
it
to
us
earlier
tonight.
A
black
person
in
Iowa
is
over
seven
times
more
likely
to
get
arrested
for
marijuana
possession
than
a
white
person
addressing
the
way
we
enforce.
Our
marijuana
laws
is
one
of
the
small
ways
that
we
can
move
towards
racial
justice
and
a
community
that
works
better
for
everyone
tonight,
I've
co-sponsored
a
resolution
with
councilmembers
Bo's
in
Voss
and
GAD.
Oh,
that
does
just
that.
I
Our
resolution
creates
a
task
force
charged
with
providing
recommendations
for
one
any
actions
that
the
state
legislature
could
take.
That
would
facilitate
making
marijuana
a
lower
enforcement
priority
and
to
any
actions
and
policies,
including,
but
not
limited,
to
ordinance
changes
that
the
city
could
implement
under
existing
state
law
to
make
marijuana
the
lowest
enforcement
priority.
I
We're
we're
asking
the
task
force
to
provide
its
recommendations
to
Council
by
the
beginning
of
October.
This
ensures
that
we'll
have
actionable
recommendations,
and
this
lets
the
public
know
the
process
for
moving
forward
and
provides
a
timeline
for
holding
us
accountable
for
future
progress.
I'm
committed
to
working
on
this
issue
I'm
committed
to
progress
on
this
issue
and
I
know.
If
we
do
this
job
right,
it
will
have
an
impact.
I
We
can't
say
that
we
are
listening
without
acknowledging
that
now,
while
we've
been
discussing
the
issue
for
two
years,
there's
never
been
a
specific
model
or
specific
language.
It's
been
part
of
part
of
this
process.
I
think
that's
part
of
why
the
Alliance
in
their
letter
acknowledged
there
was
more
work
to
do,
and
we
do
need
to
take
a
serious
look
at
what
what
would
constitute
a
workable
citizen
review
board.
We
need
to
understand
what
other
communities
have
done
or
are
even
considering
doing.
We
know.
I
I
Finally,
one
of
the
things
that
we
we
have
heard
from
folks
repeatedly
a
number
on
on
this
call
at
our
meeting
last
two
weeks
ago
and
others
people
are
concerned
about
what
happened
during
the
protests
in
Des,
Moines
and
and
what's
going
on
about.
This
I've
talked
with
the
chief
about
this,
and
he
has
assured
me
that
a
comprehensive
review
of
all
use
of
force
incidents
during
the
protests
is
already
underway.
This
is
consistent
with
our
existing
use
of
force
policy
and
it's
something
that
should
happen.
I
We
should
evaluate,
we
should
learn
and
when
things
are
done
wrong
act
upon
every
instance
of
use
of
force.
We
should
also
share
what
we
learned
from
this
investigation
with
the
public.
For
my
conversations
with
the
city
manager
is
my
understanding
that
we
will
be
able
to
share
results
from
the
investigation
by
the
end
of
the
summer
or
for
some
time
before
September
and
the
interest
of
pairen
see
and
accountability.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
the
public
knew
this
investigation
was
under
way
and
that
we
do
have
a
plan
to
share
the
results
publicly.
I
I
My
understanding
is
that
has
not
happened
in
several
instances
here
and
to
the
extent
that
we
as
a
city
can
control
that
or
have
influence
on
that.
We
should
take
steps
to
correct
that
as
a
principle.
We
should
make
clear
that
that
is
the
way
we're
going
to
approach
this
going
forward,
that
journalists
have
a
right
to
do
their
job
time
and
again,
we
have
seen
the
importance
of
a
free
press,
and
we
should
do
our
part
to
preserve
and
protect
I.
I
Know,
there's
a
lot
in
front
of
us
right
now
and
I
will
continue
working
with
the
community
members
to
get
the
full
scope
of
issues
in
front
of
us
right.
I
also
recognize
that
this
is
just
a
first
step.
I
recognize
there
is
a
lot
of
work
left
to
do
a
lot
of
listening.
A
lot
of
researching
a
lot
of
acting
I've
said
it
before
and
I'll,
say
it
again:
I'm
committed
to
working
on
racial
justice
in
our
community
with
anyone
and
everyone
who
wants
to
work
with
me
to
move
our
community
forward.
U
You
I've,
heard
and
I
understand
the
frustration
with
the
council
around
development
of
a
passage
of
a
racial
profiling
ordinance.
Sometimes
government
moves
slower
than
we
want.
I
do
think
the
last
several
weeks
of
listening
and
collaboration
with
the
Alliance
and
others
really
have
allowed
us
the
opportunity
to
give
more
teeth
to
what
was
originally
on
the
table
and
I
want
to
thank
the
Alliance
and
everybody
that
was
part
of
that
our
city
manager
or
legal
staff
for
all
the
work
that
they
put
in
at
the
time.
U
So
I
support
this
ordinance
as
a
starting
point,
but
we
all
need
to
do
more,
and
each
of
us
need
to
look
for
change
this
needed
not
only
in
this
ordinance,
but
also
in
our
systems
and
structures.
This
ordinance
alone
will
not
solve
all
the
inequities
of
our
city
or
state,
and
even
the
country.
We
have
made
significant
changes
by
play
in
the
policy
and
practice
committee
into
the
ordinance.
U
U
Think
we
need
to
make
sure
that
whatever
we
do
is
meaningful
and
I
think
we
also
pass
their
last
meeting
the
review
of
the
engage
and
report
of
our
best
practices
relating
to
police
force,
so
that
has
been
put
in
place
and
I
still
don't
want
to
lose
the
items
that
also
came
out
of
our
community
community
conversations.
That's
recruitment
of
people
of
color
to
our
police
force,
looking
at
policies
and
incentives
to
get
more
people,
police
living
in
Des,
Moines.
U
So
again,
there's
so
much
more.
We
need
to
do
to
make
sure
that
we
have
put
in
place
things
we'll
make
this
community
more
just
and
equitable
and
I
also
would
encourage,
because
I
know
we
had.
We've
had
probably
thousands
or
hundreds
of
emails
not
like
from
just
Des
Moines,
but
this
can't
be
just
Des
Moines.
This
we've
got
to
move
forward
and
the
other
communities
around
us
should
be
asked
to
do
the
same
thing,
putting
to
make
sure
that
all
of
their
communities
are
providing
just
police
systems
and
equitable
opportunities
for
everyone.
U
C
Thanks
to
all
the
council
members
for
your
input,
councilmember
gotto,
you
made
a
motion
on
the
front
side

Big
E
to
receive
and
file
the
letter
from
the

Yes,
sir,
do
you
have
any
comment?
You
would
like
to
make
to
move
your
motion
forward
and
are
you
making
this
a
second
reading?
I
will.
