Rethinking the Organizational Structure 11/3/21

A
Hey
sarah,
do
you
mind
emailing
out
the
the
action
plan?
I
was
able
to
pull
it
up
on
my.
B
On
a
phone
yeah,
I'm
on
the
phone
too
hold
on,
let
me
let
me
try
to
pull
up.
E
B
A
G
Hey
y'all,
I
just
wanted
to
say:
hi,
I'm
gonna
stay
on
camera
tonight.
I'm
battling
a
sinus
infection
and
I'm
37
weeks
pregnant.
So
just
all
in
all
just
feeling
like
a
real
superstar
over
here.
You
all
don't
need
to
see
any
of
what's
going
on
so.
B
A
I
think
this
is
your
first
meeting
if
you
want
to
one
quickly,
introduce
yourself
to
the
to
the
group.
That
would
be
great
and
I
don't
know
if
you
can
help
us
out
with
with
screen,
sharing
or
or
make
it
so.
I
can
share
my
screen,
but
we
have
a
presentation
today.
F
Hello,
everyone-
I
am
a
graduate
fellow
in
the
city
manager's
office
and
I
am
helping
support
the
reimagining
public
safety
committee
and
I
will
get
to
work
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
make
it.
So
you
can
share
your
screen.
Is
there
that
you
but
councilmember
burns
who
needs
to
be
able
to
share
their
screen
or
is
there
someone
else.
A
F
A
E
A
Welcome
to
the
city,
man,
all
right.
A
Okay,
so
while
we
get
this
going
again,
this
is
the
a
subcommittee
rethinking
the
organizational
structure,
a
subcommittee
of
the
reimagining
public
safety
committee
meeting.
Today
we
have
one
of
our
committee
members,
but
also
a.
B
A
Of
evanston
fighting
for
black
lives,
sarah
bogan,
who
is
going
to
walk
us
through
their
action
plan
the
defund
and
action
plan
that
includes.
E
A
Lot
of
many
recommendations
that
would
have
a
a
fundamental
impact
on
the
organizational
structure
of
the
everson
police
department,
which
is
why
I
felt
like
it
is.
It
would
be,
it's
really
important
to
have
their
voice
and
their
ideas
included
in
this
ongoing
conversation
that
we're
having.
I
am
we're
trying
to
change
the
permission,
so
I
can
share
my
stream
and
actually
matthew,
I'm
logged
in
under
with
my
phone,
but
also
under
another
device.
So
if
you
could
enable
it
for,
if
you
could
tell
which
one
is
the.
A
A
Cool
so
matthew's
gonna
start
sharing
the
screen
it.
The
the
document
is
also
in
the
chat
so
feel
free
to
you
can
access
it
on
your
phone
ipad,
whatever
device
you're
on,
but
the
document.
The
action
plan
that
we're
going
to
take
a
look
at
is
also
in
in
the
chat
yeah.
So
let's
jump
right
into
it.
Sarah,
if
you
want
to
introduce
yourself
and
the
organization
and
a
little
bit
about
the
action
plan
and
feel
free
to
guide
us
through
it.
However,
you
think
is
best.
C
C
C
That's
just
about
me,
so
we
can
start
it's
a
very
long
document,
so
I
won't
go
through
the
whole
thing,
because
the
first
half
is
really
an
introduction
background
and
evidence
on
police
misconduct
and
harm
caused
in
evanston
to
black
residents.
Evanston
fight
for
black
lives
as
an
abolitionist
organization.
So
we
believe
that
policing
is
inherently
racist
and
that
reform
ultimately
won't
solve
the
issues
we're
working
towards.
We
have
to
eventually
cont
completely
rebuild
this
institution,
but
these
are
some
steps
that
we
can
take
towards.
That.
C
Defunding
is
the
first
step
towards
abolition
and
I'll
also
say
that
this
took
us
a
long
time
took
us
months
to
make
and
it
had
it
got
zero
use.
Or
you
know
this
is
the
first
time
that
it's
being
like
seriously
introduced
as
anything
evanston
could
use,
which
is
very
exciting.
C
But
that
being
said,
we
have
not
put
any
more
work
into
it,
since
it
didn't
have
much
of
an
outcome,
and
so
it's
a
little
outdated
in
terms
of
alderman's
stance
or
council
member
stances,
and
it's
talking
about
the
2020
budget,
not
the
upcoming
2022
budget,
so
things
like
that
will
be
updated
if
this
becomes
a
serious
document
that
we
could
look
at
again
and
then
yeah.
So
if
you
could
scroll
down
to
how
to
begin
the
defunding
process,
that
would
be
great.
C
C
She
was
an
r.a
for
and
worked
on,
a
college
campus
for
six
years,
and
so
the
philosophy
of
this
plan
is
based
on
how
higher
education
handles
responding
to
like
emergency
response,
and
they
always
do
it
unarmed
and
with
a
focus
on
de-escalation
rather
than
force
and
yeah,
so
also
working
on
holding
officers
accountable
before
harm
or
death
or
injury
has
occurred
rather
than
after
and
so
part
one.
I'm
sorry
I'm
having
a.
C
C
Yeah
perfect,
so
we've
broken
down
the
department
into
having
funds
going
into
programs
based
on
the
types
of
calls
and
emergency
situations
that
officers
are
expected
to
report
on,
and
part
of
this
is,
is
working
towards
the
root,
mitigating
the
root
causes
of
issues
to
prevent
the
emergency
calls
from
happening,
but
then
also
how
we
would
how
officers
would
respond
when
they
get
the
call.
C
So
we
are
working
from
the
basis
that
officers
and
people
in
public
safety
should
have
far
more
expertise
in
training
than
they
do,
because,
right
now,
officers
are
not
equipped
to
handle
what
they're
happening
so
for
sexual
violence
specialists
they
would
have
a
minimum
of
a
bachelor's
degree
in
sociology
or
a
related
field,
and
then
specific
knowledge
and
training,
as
it
relates
to
sexual
assault,
dating
violence,
domestic
violence,
stalking
and
a
certificate
from
a
certified
sexual
violence.
Training
program.
C
These
officers
would
be
unarmed.
They
would
be
and
and
responding
to
calls
if
they
would
have
the
option
to
have
an
armed
officer,
but
they
would
be
leading
the
call.
And
then
we
have
mental
health,
drug
and
alcohol
abuse
specialists.
C
These
these
officers
would
have
again
either
an
associates
or
bachelor's
degree
in
psychology
or
sociology
drug
abuse,
a
related
field
and
extreme
expertise
in
how
to
handle
people
who
are
experiencing
this
and
again.
They
would
also
be
unarmed.
C
Have
the
option
to
bring
an
armed
officer
at
their
discretion
so,
depending
on
the
type
of
call
they're
getting
what
they
think
they're
responding
to?
If
they
feel
that
there
might
be
dealing
with
a
violent
person,
then
that
would
be
a
time
to
call
in
someone
who's
armed,
but
for
the
most
part,
these
are
not
response.
These
responses
aren't
happening
with
with
with
weapons.
C
A
I
understand
with
this:
do
you
see
this
role
being
a
part
of
the
evanston
police
department
or
some
new
department
or
the
health
department?
What
what
was
your
organization
thinking
about
where
this
these
positions
are
located.
C
Yeah,
so
the
idea
would
be-
and
this
is
I
guess,
the
the
order
of
this
document
might
not
be
in
the
best
order,
but
the
idea
is
that
we
would
analyze
every
officer
that
currently
works
for
apd
and
gauge
their
willingness
to
adapt
this
new
public
safety
department.
We
wouldn't
call
it.
I
don't
want
to
call
it
policing,
because
I
don't
we
want
to
change
it
right,
but
it
is.
It
would
be
the
current
system
that
exists
just
completely
changing
it.
C
C
So
if
officers
are
interested
and
willing
to
work
for
this
new
entity
and
are
truly
committed
to
public
safety,
then
they
would
go
on
to
get
whatever
trade
education
certificate
further
that's
necessary
and
that
would
come
from
the
police
department
like
that'd,
be
part
of
the
rerouting
of
funds
for
the
transition
period
of
how
long,
however
long
that
takes
yeah,
so
it
would
be
it
and
it
would
also
be.
C
Would
these
folks
have
to
be
officers
or
can
they
be
filtered?
It
could
be
either.
So
it's
if
officers
are
willing
to
go,
get
the
education
or
if
we
can
hire
outside
people,
who
already
have
this
expertise
and
yeah.
If
that
makes
sense-
and
please
stop
me
and
ask
questions
at
any
point-
and
so
yeah
part
two
is
how
we
would
reorganize
all
of
the
departments.
C
And
so
when
we
look
at
like
police
chiefs
and
the
lieutenants
and
the
people
who
are
in
charge
those
people,
if
you
scroll
down,
there's
a
list
of
yeah.
So
like
this
perfect
sorry
a
little
higher
sorry
just
under.
If
you
see
a
police
chief,
lieutenant.
C
Yeah,
so
they
would
have
again
associates
or
bachelor's
degree,
and
these
are
people
who
we
would
expect
to
have
already.
A
lot
of
experience
in
policing,
they've
already
had
to
respond
to
domestic
violence,
calls
to
drug
misuse
and
so
just
kind
of
furthering
their
education
and
training
in
cultural
competency.
All
that
so
that
they
are
able
to
then
train
officers
under
so
conflict
resolution
officers
would
be
ones
who
respond
to
less
risky
calls
so
violent.
C
I'm
sorry,
noise,
complaints,
disturbances,
traffic
accidents,
things
where
you're
not
gonna
need
a
weapon
to
be
there.
These
are
unarmed
officers
that
would
have
the
option
to
bring
in
the
tactical
officers
the
armed
officers
same
as
the
sexual
assault
and
drug
misuse
opposite
officers.
But
these
people,
for
the
most
part,
would
be
unarmed
and
using
their
discretion
of
when
they
need
to
call
in
an
armed
officer
in
case
and
again,
they
would
be
leading
the
charge,
the
armed
officers
there,
as
just
as
backup
that's
the
tactical
and
detectives
tactical
officers
and
detectives.
C
Those
are
the
people
who
are
responding
to
the
more
serious
crimes
where
we
would
need
potentially
a
weapon,
but
this
is
where
we
would
have
to
like
explore
like
training
officers
in
jiu,
jitsu
or
hand-to-hand,
combat
or
things
where
we're
giving
them
the
tools
where
the
weapon
is
truly
truly
the
last
resort
and
then
having
a
chief
diversity
and
equity
and
inclusion
officer.
C
H
Oh
sorry,
can
you
hear
me
now
sorry
about
that
nice
to
read
this
thanks
for
all
the
thought.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
I
think
there's
a
so
I'm
on
the
equity
and
empowerment
committee
and
we
got
a
report
about
something
in
the
city
called
the
ready
committee
council
member
burns.
H
I
don't
know
if
you
heard
about
that
or
if
they've,
given
you
all
a
report,
but
it's
kind
of
something
that
kimberly
richardson
is
leading
and
it's
a
journey
in
terms
of
bringing
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
practices
and
frameworks
into
the
city,
and
they
do
have
some
representatives
on
there
from
the
police
department.
H
So
I
just
wonder
if
you
know,
as
in
they're
looking
to
pilot,
I
think
some
projects,
so
I
just
wonder
if
there
might
be
an
opportunity
to
see
if
there
is
some
willingness
and
some
support
in
terms
of
what
they're
already
doing
through
the
ready
committee
and
what
they
where
they,
the
vision
that
they
are
trying
to
pursue.
H
As
far
as
you
know,
the
police
that
they
already
have
participating
and
just
general
support
for
how
this
might
look
if
we
were
to
actually
pursue
this,
I
love
it.
I
think
it's
a
good
idea,
and
then
the
other
thing
I
was
going
to
mention
as
well
is
I'm
on
the
other
work
group,
one
of
the
other
work
groups
for
getting
our
name,
violence
prevention,
and
we
have
been
talking
broadly
about
an
office
of
neighborhood
safety.
C
C
That
could
pose
some
risks.
I
think
of
people
who
has
more
power,
who
has
more
say
our
tactical
officers
and
detectives.
Just
you
know,
I
don't
know.
I
think
that
it
definitely
is
worth
the
conversation
and
trying
to
combine
this
with
what's
already
happening
and
what's
already
in
conversation
and
how
we
can
like.
I
said
we
wrote
this
over
a
year
ago
before
anything
on
this
committee
has
started
happening,
so
it
can
definitely
be
adapted
and
shifted
and
we
can
try
and
make
it
things
work
together.
C
A
Yeah
and
I'll
just
quickly
say
we
I
think
we
can
have
the
committee-
that's,
I
believe,
kim,
as
you
said,
an
internal
committee
that
is
of
staff,
that's
organizing
themselves
around
some
equity
goals,
and
we
can
certainly
have
them
on
just
before
a
future
meeting
to
give
us
a
similar
presentation
that
they
provided
the
equity
committee.
So
we
can
work
on
that,
but
sarah,
if
you
want
to
for
the
second
time
if
you
want
to
continue,
but
thanks
for
those
questions
kim
those
are
good
questions.
C
Yeah,
I
don't
have
much
more
so
if
you
just
scroll
down,
I
think
the
hiring
process
is
interesting,
so
we're
hiring
and
recruitment
changes.
I'm
just
honestly
going
to
read
these
really
quickly,
but
so
all
officers
that
would
be
all
police
officer
searches
would
take
place
with
at
least
three
people,
including
the
police
chief
and
the
hiring
manager
interview.
Questions
would
be
created
and
used
for
all
candidates
who
are
screened
across
all
roles
and
they
would
be
made
with
the
person
in
charge
of
equity
and
inclusion,
as
well
as
an
outside.
C
Contractor
and
interviews
would
have
case
study
scenarios
with
rubrics
that
are
focused
on
policing
in
black
and
brown
communities,
and
they
would
be
assessing
how
officers
are
with
prioritizing
the
escalation
techniques
and
using
their
cultural,
competency,
education
and
problem
solving
without
weapons,
and
I
think,
and
then,
if
you
go
to
the
bottom,
it's
having
the
public
also
be
a
part
of
not
the
whole
public.
C
But
members
of
the
community
are
part
of
this
hiring
process
as
well,
and
it
starts
with
again
auditing
the
entire
police
department
and
seeing
who
is
willing
to
go,
get
further
educated,
complete
these
certificates.
I
like
putting
money
towards
more
training
without
completely
like
implementing
this,
these
educational
minimums.
We
just
don't
believe
that
it
will
actually
be
effective,
no
matter
how
much
people
are
kind
and
nice
and
want
to
be
protective
of
their
community.
If
we're
not
trained,
everyone
has
biases
if
people
aren't
educated,
if
we're
not
setting
the
bar
extremely
high.
C
We're
gonna
just
continue
to
experience,
violence
and
harm,
and
that
would
happen
with
inter
interviews
where
officers
stand
on
the
black
lives
matter.
Movement
on
black
lives
in
general.
That
could
be
done
with
the
bias
test
that
can
be
done.
C
Also
people
every
single
officer's
history
should
be
looked
at
and
if
they
have
a
history
of
violence
or
targeting
or
harming
people
of
color
in
the
community,
that's
termination
unless
they're
willing
to
address
their
biases
continue
education
like
it.
I
think
the.
In
summary,
the
main
goal
of
this
plan
is
to
require
a
lot
more
of
officers
to
be
qualified
to
work
in
this
setting
yeah.
C
So
that's
and
then
the
second
is
the
the
document
finishes
is
where
to
put
the
reallocated
funds,
we
push
for
parks
and
rec
health
and
human
services
and
in
the
education
of
the
officers
again,
I
would
encourage
everyone
to
actually
read
this
document,
because
this
is
a
very.
This
is
definitely
a
high
level
summary
yeah.
Are
there
any
other
questions.
A
Yeah,
let's
open
it
up
first
committee
members:
I
think
we
have
kim
councilman
reed.
Do
you
have
any
questions
and
if
not
we're
gonna,
kick
it
out
to
the
community
at
large
for
questions.
D
I'll
just
say,
thank
you,
sarah,
it's
a
great
presentation
as
well
as
thank
you
to
the
entire
group
for
taking
the
labor
of
putting
this
together.
I'm
on
a
meeting.
A
And
then
community
at
large
anybody
who
has
has
taken
the
time
to
join
us
this
evening,
which
I
truly
appreciate,
kadeem,
if
that's
your,
how
you
pronounce
it.
I
know
you
mentioned
something
earlier.
So
if
you
have
any
questions
or
comments,
love
to
hear
from
you.
I
Perfect
pronunciation
and
thank
you,
sarah.
I
really
appreciate
reading
this.
One
question
I
had
was
in
terms
of
so:
if
there
are
officers
who
want
to
take
advantage
of
the
opportunity
to
get
a
different
degree
and
they're
willing
to
be
trained,
where
would
the
savings
come
from?
Is
it
the
idea
that
it
would
come
from
for
officers
who
decide?
That's
not
what
they
want
to
do
and
leave
like?
Where
would
that
savings
come
from.
C
Yeah
that
would
ideally
come
from
the
police
budget,
so
in
in
reallocating
I
mean
I
don't
know
what
it's
like:
the
chicken
and
the
egg.
I
don't
know
what
comes
first.
I
think
it
would
first
be
auditing
the
department
recognizing
who
first
of
all
is
not
harmed
people.
C
You
know
overly
harmed
black
and
brown
people
and
is
qualified
to
offer
to
want
to
continue,
and
then
you
know
figuring
out
where
they
want
to
be
if
they
want
to
be
in
the
mental
health,
sexual
violence
or
if
they
want
to
be
in
drug
misuse.
If
they
want
to
be
a
tactical
officer
of
all
those
where
people
want
to
be,
and
then
recognizing
what
education
background,
they
already
have
what
needs
to
be
furthered
and
then
looking
at
the
budget
as
a
whole
of
okay.
C
How
are
we
redirecting
funds
to
make
sure
that
we're
getting
necessary
personnel,
but
I
also
think
pushing
for
people
who
already
have
that
those
qualifications
is
also
going
to
be
like
one
of
the
stronger
ways
to
go.
A
J
Yes,
thank
you,
I'm
wondering
what
is
this
committee's
feelings
or
how
they
feel
about
the
the
possibility
of
the
seven
open
police
positions
about
them
being
filled
this
year,
because
they
were
talking
about
that
in
the
budget
and
they're
talking
about
the
need
to
fill
those
positions,
I
know
many
of
them
are
administrative
and
I
think
at
least
one
or
two
actually,
actually
you
know
police
officers
that
are
street
police
officer.
So
I'd
like
to
understand,
what's
you
know
the
committee's
position
in
regards
to
that?
Thank
you.
A
F
A
What
your
comments
were
around
it
at
the
last
special
city
council
meeting.
D
Yeah
I'll
just
very
quick,
and
then
I
see
that
sarah
wants
to
chairman.
So
yes,
you're
right,
the
majority
of
the
positions
are
civilian
positions,
so
I
you
know
I
personally
somewhat
supportive
of
those
positions,
but
there
are
three
positions:
two
management
level
positions.
D
And
one
patrol
officer
position
that
that
are
to
be
filled,
and
so
I
have
requested
and
will
request
that
the
police
officer
position
be
held
vacant.
J
Thank
you.
I
do
have
one
more
question.
Sorry
also.
I
was
just
trying
to
see
what
what's,
I
guess,
the
status
or
what's
your
position
on
police
officers
at
eths,
I
know
what
I
understand.
You
know
what
district
65's
position
is
and
I
think
that
the
police
officers
aren't
there
anymore,
but
I
understand
that
they're
still
at
eths.
So
if
you
can
tell
me
what
you
know
this
committee
or
your
position
is
on
that,
thank
you.
A
I
know
we
have
it
coming
up
for
a
discussion
in
some
sense
in
that
I
believe
so.
Councilman
marie
put
in
a
referral
to
have
a
discussion
about
the
sro
program
at
district
202
and
then
I
believe
and
councilman
reed
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
councilmember
fleming
submitted
or
requested
a
budget
memo
that
would
also
prompt
a
discussion
about
the
sro
program.
But
in
terms
of
my
personal
opinion,
I
I
appreciate
sarah
and
other
members
of
evans
to
fight
for
black
lives.
A
They
put
out
a
candidate
questionnaire
during
the
election
and
I
believe-
and
sarah
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong.
One
of
the
questions
was:
would
you
vote
on
a
budget
that
that
had
the
sro,
the
202
sro
program
in
there,
and
I
said
I
would
not-
and
I
plan
to
I
plan
to
stick
to
that
commitment
and
councilman
reed.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
speak
to
the
topic,
but
in
a
much
broader
sense
we
are
going
to
have
a
discussion
about
it.
A
Coming
up
at
some
point,
once
the
the
memo
is
provided
by
city
staff.
C
And
personally,
just
for
that
first
for
the
first
question
on
the
seven
positions,
I
think
all
should
be
held
open,
considering
that
epd
has
so
much
human
labor
per
residential
like
we
have
the
largest
amount
of
officers
per
residence,
and
I
think
that,
if
we're
a
committee
that
is
supposed
to
be
reimagining,
the
structure
it
wouldn't
make,
it
doesn't
make
sense
to
me
to
be
continuing
to
continuing
to
bring
on
new
people,
especially
if
we're
trying
to
actually
implement
a
plan
like
this,
where
we're
auditing
the
every
role
and
where
people
stand.
C
If
we
hire
someone
and
then
they're
not
and
they're,
not
a
fit
for
this
new
plan,
you
know
what
what
happens
then.
So
I
I
personally
think
that
all
positions
should
be
held
open
until
as
a
committee,
we've
decided
what
to
do
with
them
and
yeah.
I'm
part
of
evanston
fight
for
black
lives
and
I'm
definitely
against
sros
and
eths.
D
I
I
will
just
chime
in
and
say
that,
particularly
you
know.
Sir
brings
up
a
good
point,
and
it's
made
me
think
that
maybe
even
the
commander
positions
or
the
management
positions
should
be
held
as
well,
since
we
are
in
the
process
of
hiring
a
new
police
chief
and
before
we
promote
folks.
Maybe
we
should
let
you
know,
provide
that
opportunity
to
the
new
police
chief
and
hold
those
vacant
as
well.
A
I
think
another
important
part
is,
I
think,
the
you
know
we
heard
from
the
police
union
at
our
last
special
city
council
meeting
and
I
think
part
of
what
is
not
being
discussed.
Is
that
the
I
the
the
plan,
although
we
don't
really
have
a
plan
right
now
to
do
it,
but
we
need
one
is
to
shift
responsibility
from
away
from
our
police
department
into
some
other.
You
know,
department
to
respond
to
well-being,
checks
and
other
calls
that
again
don't
require
an
armed
officer,
and
unfortunately,
we
haven't
gotten
far
enough
in
that
process.
A
We,
we
posted
an
rfp
for
our
alternative,
alternative
emergency
response,
programmer
system
and
didn't
get
a
lot
or
any
responses
to
that
rfp
and
that
was
to
contract
out
the
work.
I
am
of
the
belief
that
this
should
be
something
similar
that
I
think
would
ever
say.
Fight
for
black
lives
calls
for
that
should
be
within
our
depart,
our
own
department.
I
don't
think
this
is
work
that
we
should
contract
out
for
the
risk.
A
There
is
if
the
organization
we
contract
with,
has
a
large
coverage
area
that
they
serve,
well-being,
checks
and
other
really
important
calls.
Could
go,
you
know
unaddressed
and
we
may
not
have
folks
responding
to
them,
which
is
definitely
not
what
we
want
to
do.
A
So
I
think
that's
one
of
the
problems
that
the
plea,
the
police
department,
as
it
exists
today,
is
saying:
look
we
still
have
all
of
these
responsibilities
and
until
we
shift
it
to
another
department
or
shift
the
responsibility
to
some
other
group
or
entity,
we're
still
the
ones
responding
to
these
calls,
and
so
it's
up
to
us
as
a
counselor
to
say:
look
we
have
this
is
the
alternative
option
and
we
need
to
move.
A
We
have
funding
for
it
and
you
know
we
understand
how
to
how
to
work
it
into
our
current
budget
and
we
need
to
move
forward
in
doing
so.
I
I
don't
think
we're
there
yet,
but
we
need
to
be-
and
hopefully
we
can
get
there
in
this
in
this
year's
budget
conversation
councilman
reed,
I
don't
know
if
you
have
any
other
thoughts,
but
beyond
that
too,
we
can
open
up
to
any
other
questions
or
comments.
A
K
So
the
budget
is
for
officers
the
the
last
years
and
this
year
so,
and
so
two
are
in.
My
understanding
is
two:
are
at
eths
and
two
are
with
district
65.
They
have
a,
they
have
an
sro
plan,
so
it
seems
clear
to
me
that
that's
what's
happening.
So,
if
we're
deciding,
you
know
how
to
divvy
out
officers,
I
the
question
is:
why
do
do
we
need
them?
Is
that
a
place
to
save
money.
L
K
L
K
A
K
A
C
C
I
agree
with
jenny
in
terms
of
like
where
our
dollars
are
going
that
doesn't
seem
necessary.
I
think
that
there's
a
way
to
fit
into
this
new
action
plan
a
way
to
make
sure
that
schools
are
safe
without
having
armed
officers
on
campus,
but.
L
Yeah,
so
I
just
want
to
specify
that
this
was
not
per
request
of
district
65.
This
was
yeah
per
the
resistance
to
the
request
of
actually
district
65..
L
We
did
not
see
that
it
would
be
necessary
to
have
officers
assigned
to
our
district,
because
I
perceive
the
public
safety
entity
of
the
district
of
the
city
to
be
obligated
to
provide
public
safety
to
our
schools
without
having
a
particular
subset
of
officers
assigned
to
us.
That
was
a
decision
by
the
department
at
the
time
about
how
they
wanted
to
organize
themselves
and
what
we
asked.
L
What
was
what
what
was
within
our
purview
in
terms
of
the
experience
that
children
and
families
were
having
and
that
we
did
not
want
children
and
families
to
be
interacting
with
officers
for
any
type,
any
unnecessary,
non-emergent
reason
in
our
in
our
buildings
during
the
school
day,
and
so
that
is
the
priority
that
we
have
as
a
district.
The
city
of
evanston
has
decided
how
they
want
to
how
you
all
want
to
allocate
dollars
and
organize
your
public
safety
department.
But
our
expectation
is
that
you
know
the
public
safety
department
do.
A
So
I
guess
just
for
clarification
is
the
district,
supportive
or
not
supportive
of
that's
the
sros
on
the
campus
grounds,
not
inside
but
outside.
Is
that
something
the
district
supports
or
doesn't
support.
L
L
J
I
did
have
another
question:
does
anybody
know
where
does
a
mayor
best
stand
in
regards
to
these
seven
open
positions
with
the
police
station,
because
I
think
that
you
know
one
of
the
campaign
promises
he
made
it
was.
It
was
pertaining
to
defunding,
and
so
I'm
just
curious
as
to
where
he
stands
on
that
and
if
he's
in
alignment
with
you
know
not
hiring
them
or
is
he
now
supporting
it
and
what
is
going
to
be?
A
A
Yeah,
I
can't
I
can't
I'm
not
sure
where
mayor
bishop
is
on
the
issue,
and
you
know,
although
he
plays
a
an
important
role
in
kind
of
establishing
the
agenda
and
kind
of
keeping
keeping
order
among
the
council
members,
he
doesn't
have
a
vote.
Unless
it's
a
it's,
it's
a
tie
vote.
He
needs
to
break
it.
So
I
am
interested
on
his
opinion
on
the
matter,
but
I'm
also
interested
in
what
my
my
colleagues,
the
nine
other
council
members,
how
they
feel
on
the
issue,
but
we're
still
discussing
it.
A
I
know
we
have
some
budget
meetings
coming
up
and
they're
all
public
meetings
and
and
we'll
we'll
know
soon
how
everybody
feels
about
the
issue.
I
know
we
discussed
it
at
the
last
special
special
city
council
meeting,
I'm
sure
we'll
hear
from
the
police
department
as
to
why
they
believe
we
need
to
to
bring
back
on
these
staff
members.
So
we'll
have
a
lot
of
discussion
moving
forward
on
the
topic,
but
yeah,
I'm
not
I'm
not
sure
where
mayor
this
stands
on
the
issue
at
this
point.
A
Okay,
so
this
is
thank
you
so
much
sir.
This
is
really
good
information.
Everybody
has
access
to
it
again
this
this.
A
Version
of
a
much
longer
a
much
more
detailed
look
into
kind
of
reorganizing
our
police
department
and
defunding
our
police
department,
in
a
way
that
that
will
help
us
and
hopefully
achieve
better
outcomes,
which
is
what
this
is
all
about,
and
so
we
appreciate
you
sarah
for
coming
on,
but
everybody
can
access
the
the
action
plan
through
the
chat.
A
It
is
it's
in
the
chat,
it's
actually
been
posted,
think
twice
there
and
you
can
access
it
read
it
we'll
have
sarah
back
on
at
future
meetings
to
talk
more
about
it,
and
you
know
I
I
guess
just
to
give
you
an
update.
I
touched
a
bit
on
this.
You
know
we
did
send
out
an
rfp.
The
city
sent
out
an
rfp
for
an
emergency
response
program.
A
As
far
as
I
understand,
there
were
no
responses
to
the
rfp
and
we
just
received
an
update
at
the
human
services
committee
meeting
which,
which
I
sit
on
and
councilman
reid,
sits
on
and
again
my
position
unless,
unless
I
get
information
that
that
would
suggest
we
need
to
move
in
a
different
direction
is
that
we
really
should
be
bringing
on
staff
to
do
to
do
that.
A
Work
as
opposed
to
contracting
out
for
it,
and
that's
one
reason
why
I
wanted
sarah
to
present
today,
but
also
I
want
us
to
continue
to
think
about
how
to
bring
on
this
alternative
emergency
response
program
or
system
into
what
we
do
as
a
city
and
really
commit
public
dollars
towards
it.
Hire
people
on
staff
to
do
the
work
as
opposed
to
contracting
out
for
it.
A
So
you'll
hear
me
and
others
I'm
sure,
bringing
that
up
at
future
meetings,
and
you
know
one
thing:
we've
also
talked
about
a
bit
and
I'm
I'm
still
figuring
out
how
to
frame
this
discussion
and
who
to
bring
on
to
talk
about
it,
but
a
lot
of
the
organizational
theories
that
especially
around
policing
points.
A
At
least
me
at
this
stage
to
the
idea
that
while
it
may
be
important
to
have
a
police
chief
or
someone
who
is
leading
our
public
safety
department,
that
has
a
law
enforcement
background
background.
I
think
it
is
equally
important
that
we
have
a
a
person
in
charge.
That's
committed
to
that
is
committed
to
and
understands
organizational
theory
that
understands
that
is.
That
is
a
clinician
that
understands
kind
of
health
outcomes.
A
Overall,
that's
where
I
am
now
just
based
on
some
of
the
research
that
I've
been
doing
outside
of
this
committee
and
I'm
trying
to
find
the
most
appropriate
way
to
bring
that
discussion
to
committee
with
experts
on
these
different
topics
and
I'm
probably
a
week
or
two
away
from
being
able
to
propose
a
lineup
that
I
think
could
really
speak
to
this
group
about
the
benefits
of
adding
another
position
to
our
public
safety
strategy.
A
Position
that
that
really
could
ensure
that
our
police
department
is
rooted
in
in
strong
social
science,
that's
rooted
in
understanding
that
how
we
structure
our
police
department,
our
public
safety
department,
has
a
lot
to
do
with
the
incentives
that
are
created
and
incentives
either
make
people
do
things
that
that
support
the
public
benefit,
broadly
speaking
or
they
they're
they're,
I
think,
are
currently
incentives
that
are
set
up
to
make
people
protect
one
another
and
and
become
further
kind
of
insulated,
as
they
try
to
manage
this
really
this
this
job.
A
That
gives
you
a
lot
of
authority,
but
also
comes
with
a
lot
of
risks,
whether
it's
perceived
or
real.
It
comes
with
a
lot
of
risks
and
I
think
this
job
of
being
a
police
officer.
A
We
we've
seen
it
in
action
for
a
while.
Now
we
know
what
it
leads
to.
We
know
the
type
of
person
that
that
it
creates,
and
I
think
in
order
to
shift
aggressively
away
from
that,
we
need
to
add
a
different
individual
that
thinks
about
policing
that
thinks
about
health
outcomes
that
thinks
about
public
safety
in
a
in
a
different
way
than
I
think.
A
You
know
with
this
new
department
that
we're
thinking
about
so
I'm
just
throwing
that
out
there
again
still
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
effectively
and
appropriately
bring
that
to
the
group
happy
to
hear
people's
thoughts
on
that
just
in
case
I'm
moving
in
the
wrong
direction
and
we
want
to
go
in
a
different
direction.
B
C
In
response
just
like,
if
we
could
make
maybe
an
action
step
for
the
next
meeting
or
you
know
like
so
we're
not
just
like
introducing
ideas
and
then
they
kind
of
like
don't
come
back
up
for
a
while
or
like
how
we
can
continue
to
build
on
yeah.
I
don't
know
if
that
something
making
sense.
A
B
A
I
yeah
no,
that
makes
perfect
sense.
I
think
one
of
the
steps
is
I
I
thought
our
our
alternative
emergency
response
program
was
really
looking
at
creating
positions
within
the
city
of
evanston.
A
It's
been
discussed,
but
that's
not
where
we're
headed
right
now,
and
so
I
think
one
of
the
things
we
need
to
decide
as
a
committee
is,
if
we
want
to
continue
to
explore
that,
because
even
reading
through
the
evidence
to
fight
for
black
lives
action
plan,
it
really
calls
for
a
city
division
within
this
public
safety
department
that
will
respond
to
you
know
mental
health
related
calls
and
calls
related
to
sexual
abuse
and
other
calls,
and
right
now
it
doesn't
seem
like
we
I
mean
we
have
this
alternative
response
committee.
A
That's
thinking
about
this,
but
I
think
they're
really
looking
in
really
focused
in
a
few
different
directions,
as
opposed
to
really
looking
at
what
it
looks
like
to
to
create
these
staffs
in
in
in
our
you
know,
to
create
these
ads
within
our
current
kind
of
infrastructure,
and
so
I
think
that's
the
question
that
we
need
to
ask
ourselves:
is
that
something
that
we
want
to
pursue?
Or
at
least
look
into
and
whether
that's
reassigning
people
reassigning
current
police
officers,
which
is
what
I
think
this
your
the
efdl
model,
calls
for.
G
Yeah
just
that
the
violence
prevention
working
group,
the
the
third
you
know,
one
of
one
of
the
three
working
groups
in
the
reimagining
public
safety
overall
committee-
I
think
you
know
is-
is
also
like
there's
a
lot
of
overlap
between
some
of
what
we're
talking
about
what
that
working
group
is
proposing
and
the
alternative
response
group
and-
and
basically
you
know,
the
the
overlying.
G
The
overarching
theme
is
like
having
people
other
than
police
officers.
Do
a
lot
of
this
work
and
what
that
looks
like
might
be
slightly
different
in
each
of
the
groups.
But
you
know:
there's
there's
a
lot
of
overlap
there,
so
I
just
you
know,
wanted
to
to
reemphasize
kimberly's
point,
especially
because,
with
the
the
violence
prevention
working
group,
I
think
we're
getting
to
a
place
where
we're
about
to
you
know,
make
some
proposals
so
we'll
have
to
see
how
that
kind
of
overlaps
with
everything
else.
E
G
That
what
areas
yeah
this
just
the
idea
of
of
having
non-police
officers
respond
to
whatever
it
is
right.
So
the
alternative
response
committee,
I
think,
had
sort
of
a
broader
to-do
list
and
then
now
is,
is
focusing
quite
a
bit
on
some
of
the
mental
health
aspects
of
it.
That's
something
that
we
in
this
working
group
have
talked
about.
A
lot
is
the
mental
health
aspect
of
it
and
the
living
room.
That's
a
thread.
G
That's
been
common
between
those
two
working
groups
and
then
the
violence
prevention
working
group
is
thinking
about
victim
services
and
youth
services
and
how
those
two
work
together
and
where
they're
located
within
the
the
city
organization,
not
within
the
police
department,
so
they're
all
we're
all
kind
of
talking
about
like
different
ways.
A
Yeah-
and
I
think
that's,
I
think,
alternative
responses
are
the
most
effective
way
to
address
some
of
the
concerns
we've
heard
over
the
last
several
years
and
even
beyond,
because
it
removes
the
responsibility
away
from
an
armed
officer,
and
so
that's
mental
health
and
sexual
abuse.
That's
that's
traffic
potentially
nuisance
complaints.
Also,
I
think,
is
what
we
heard,
and
so
I
think,
if
we
want
to
make
the
biggest
difference,
we
really.
L
A
To
make
a
decision
as
committees
and
as
a
council
like
what?
What
responsibilities
do
we
want
to
shift
on
our
on
our
public
servants
and
and
and
are
we
trying
to
contract
out
that
work
or
do
we
want
to
bring
these
folks
on?
Is
full-time
staff,
the
city
of
evanston,
and
I'm
not
sure
I
have,
even
as
a
council
member
clear
and
a
clear
idea
of
where
the
council
is
at
and
where
the
committees
are
at.
A
I
know
the
the
data
committee
made
a
recommendation
to
some
around
how
we
respond
to
traffic,
but
I
don't
think
it
was.
It
went
as
far
as
to
say
we
shouldn't
have
armed
public
servants.
Responding
to
you
know,
correct
right.
G
Yeah
yeah
that
that
one
is
the
only
one,
that's
in
a
way,
an
outlier
here,
because
it's
not
looking
for
different
types
of
staff
or
different.
You
know
basically
non-police
officers
to
respond
to
certain
events,
so
that
those
recommendations
are
basically
to
have
law
enforcement,
not
stop
folks
for
equipment
violations
anymore
to
ban
consent,
searches
and
then
some
recommendations
and
requests
around
data
and
how
it's
like,
correlated
and
and
given
back
out.
A
Go
ahead,
did
you
have
some
comments.
C
I
just
think
that,
with
the
overlap
like,
I
think
that
I
think
looking
at
that
org
chart,
you
know
how
we
were
doing
a
couple
months
ago,
is
kind
of
what
we
should
go
back
to
and
really
looking
at
each
role,
the
dollars
that
go
into
each
one,
making
a
plan.
That's
similar
to
the
one
that
I
just
presented
with,
that
we
create,
as
a
committee
and
really
figuring
out
how
we
can
reorganize
those
roles
into
the.
C
What
we
want
to
see
our
public
safety
entity
look
like,
because
I
think,
if
we're
trying
to
just
build
on
what
we
already
have
without
like
changing
what
exists
like
contracting
out,
but
not
getting
rid
of
a
set
of
people
who
work
for
epd
right
now
or
shifting
them
around
or
getting
them
further
educated
and
like
taking
those
dollars
into
mitigating
the
root
causes
like.
I
feel
like
we're
kind
of
looking
at
the
reactions
right
now
to
calls
rather
than
like
preventing
some
of
these
things.
A
I
think
it's
a
great
point
with
the
understanding
that
we
may
be
having
similar
conversations
that
people
in
other
groups
are
having,
but
you
know
so
be
it
we
may
have
to.
I
guess
my
point
is:
we
may
have
to
continue
doing
our
work
and
and
meet
somewhere
down
the
road.
Unless
we
want
to
approach
those
groups
and
say
hey,
you
know
what
what
are
you
doing?
Here's
what
we're
doing?
What
should
we
look
into?
A
What
do
you
want
to
look
into,
and
we
certainly
can
take
that
approach,
but
but
I
bought
but
also
wouldn't
mind
just
trying
to
do
our
tasks
to
the
best
of
our
ability
and
and
seeing
what
we
meet
down
the
road,
I'm
curious
to
councilman
marie
kimberly.
What
are
your
thoughts
on
what
sarah
proposed
in
terms
of
a
direction
for
the
committee.
H
Well,
I
would
love
to
see
I
mean
I'm,
I
think,
allison
as
well
we're
both
on
the
other
violence
intervention.
It
sounds
like
she
may
also
be
on
the
data,
so
I
do
see
a
lot
of
overlap,
but
I
think
that's.
Okay,.
F
H
Think
it's
good
that
we're
actually
thinking
of
the
same
ideas,
because
hopefully,
when
we're
trying
to
sort
of
achieve
consensus
across
all
three
that
you
know
there
will
be
parallels
and
we
won't
really
be
looking
at
a
lot
of
very
different
options.
So
I
think
that's
really
good
that
we're
kind
of
arriving
at
some
of
the
same
conclusion.
H
I
guess
what
I
would
like
to
see
is
just
we've
started
in
the
other
group
and
when
I
say
we,
I
really
mean
allison
and
started
kind
of
framing
out
what
we
want
to
see,
and
so
I
wonder
for
this
group.
H
Could
we
take
some
of
the
parts
of
what
we
just
looked
at
from
the
document
and
added
on
to
maybe
some
of
the
other
things
we've
talked
about
in
our
committee
and
start
to
frame
up
kind
of
what
this
new
structure
would
look
like
and
then
maybe
you
all
can
advise
us,
I'm
sorry,
my
son,
you
all,
can
advise
us
on
how
we
take
it
through
the
vetting
process.
If
you
will
and
think
about,
you
know
getting
estimates
of
what
it
would
cost
to
do
something
like
this.
H
You
know
how
do
we
actually
go
from
idea
to
implementation,
but
I
think
the
next
step
for
us
would
be
maybe
a
you
know,
a
joint
review
at
the
next
large
reimagining
public
safety
meeting,
where
we
kind
of
talk
about
all
the
common
themes
that
each
group
is
coming
up
with
and
then
secondarily,
our
group
sort
of
formalized
our
recommendations.
A
bit.
A
A
H
No,
not
that
one,
I'm
thinking
for
like
the
next
sort
of
group
of
this
this
this
group,
the
next
meeting
of
this
group.
E
A
Let's
see
what
your
name
yep-
and
I
think
you
and
sarah
on
this
are
in
agreement,
then
that
that
we
can
start
to
put
this
thing
together,
based
on
what
we
learned,
try
to
put
it
together
and
and
see
where
we
end
up.
So
I
think
you're
in
agreement
and
if
we
need
people
to
you
know,
subject
matter
experts
and
others
to
come
in
and
provide
more
information
we
can.
We
can.
We
can
kind
of
schedule
them
as
needed.
Councilman
marie
any
thoughts
on
this
on
this
direction.
A
It
is
7
p.m.
We
have,
I
don't,
think
we've
ever
concluded
a
meeting
at
the
hour
march,
so
I'm
gonna
try
to
do
that
today,
but
I
think
we're
clear
that
we
want
to
start
to
frame
out
what
this
new
department
would
look
like
at
our
next
meeting.
What
I'll
try
to
do
is
is
pull
together.
A
What
we've
learned
into
the
google
drive
and
I'll
share
that
back
out,
but
we
had
a
google
doc
at
one
point
that
we
were
working
off
of
I'll
try
to
move
all
of
this
to
that
document.
A
Just
so
we
have
a
good
starting
point
and,
and
then
at
the
next
meeting
we
can
kind
of
get
to
work,
putting
together
this
new
department,
and
if
that
sounds,
if
that
sounds
like
a
good
next
step,
then
yeah,
we'll
we'll
do
that
in
between
the
meetings
and
look
forward
to
a
really
a
really
interesting,
and
I
think
in
important
meeting
for
our
committee
does
that
sound.
E
A
Look
at
my
calendar
we're
looking
at
not
the
9th
but
the
16th
at
6
p.m.
J
C
A
Okay,
if
there's
anything
that
that
you
need
members,
sarah
kim
devine
and
whoever
else
I'm
missing,
just
let
me
know-
and
I
can
get
that
from
the
city-
thank
you
to
everybody
from
the
community
for
coming
out
to
this
meeting.
We
appreciate
it.
I
think
there
were
some.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I'm
getting
some
other
calls.
E
A
I
think
also,
I
had
a
question
also,
how
will
these
priorities
be
elevated
to
the
chief
in
city
management
search?
So
we,
you
know,
our
committee's
recommendation
was
that
we
had
this
question
early
on
our
our
position
on
the
police
chief
hires,
that
we
should
hold
off
hiring
a
police
chief
until
we
complete
this
work
and
and-
and
I
think
the
interim
city
manager
and
mayor
bish
are
in
agreement.
A
With
hope,
I
know
they
will
come
to
us
and
let
us
know-
and
we
can
have
that
discussion
then,
but
we
are
certainly
holding
off
until
until
we
finish
this
work,
that's
where
we
are
now
thanks.
I'm
gonna
hop.
Take
care,
tyler,
hey
allison!
Thank
you.
So
that
was
the
the
one
question
so
again.
Thank
you
so
much
to
community
members
who
have
come
out
again.
This
is
a
re-thinking
organizational.
A
Committee,
a
subcommittee
of
the
reimagining
public
safety
committee,
we're
going
to
be
back
on
not
next
tuesday,
but
the
following
tuesday.
I
think
I
said
that's
the
16th
at
6
pm.
Hopefully
I
can
see
everybody
back
and
and
yeah
good
night
unless
there's
any
other
questions
or
comments
have
a
good
night.
A
Matt
real
quick
before
you,
you
close
it
out.
I
want
to
somebody
left
me
contact
information
from
the
aclu.
I
want
to
make
sure
I
get
back
to
them.
Okay,
I
got
a
good
screenshot
matt,
I'm
good.
Okay,
all
right
matthew,
good.
