B
Thank
you
good
afternoon,
I'm
lisa
bender.
I
am
the
chair
of
the
policy
palestinian
government
oversight
committee
and
I
will
call
to
order
our
regular
committee
meeting
for
thursday
august
20th.
I'd
like
to
note
for
the
record
that
this
meeting
has
remote
participation
by
council
members
and
city
staff
as
authorized
under
the
minnesota
open
meeting
law,
section
13d
.021
due
to
the
declared
state
of
local
public
health
emergency
at
this
time,
I'll
ask
the
clerk
to
call
the
role
to
verify
the
presence
of
a
quorum.

Madam
president,
this
is
casey.
I
don't
see
mr
ruff
on
the
call.
I
know
he
was
invited,
but
had
some
other
potential
scheduling
conflicts,
and
so
I'm
not
for
sure
that
he
is
available
right
this
moment.
But
I
do
know
that
miss
dye
is
on
the
phone
and
perhaps
we
can
just
recognize
her
and
ask
her
to
provide
a
an
introduction
of
herself.
H
From
you
thank
you,
chair
bender
committee
members.
Good
afternoon,
my
name
is
dushani
dai.
I'm
excited
to
join
the
city
of
the
new
cfo
and,
as
chair
bender
mentioned,
I
come
to
the
city.
Having
worked
in
government
finance,
most
of
my
career,
I've
held
finance
leadership
positions
within
hennepin
county
and,
most
recently,
as
the
deputy
finance
director
at
ramsey
county,
I
obtained
my
bachelor's
and
master's
degrees
locally
at
university
of
st
thomas
and
I've
lived
in
the
twin
cities
area.
Most
of
my
life.
Oh,
the
light
goes
off
behind
me.
H
B
B
With
that
we'll
proceed
with
the
agenda
items
on
today's
meeting
agenda.
B
The
first
hearing
was
on
the
reappointment
of
the
fire
chief
that
was
opened
at
our
july
23rd
meeting
and
to
continue
to
today's
meeting
since
that
meeting
chief
freudel
has
announced
his
intent
to
retire
this
october,
so
I
will
move
to
delete
this
reappointment
from
the
agenda,
but
first
we
have
to
formally
reopen
the
public
hearing
so
I'll
ask
staff
if
there
are
any
speakers
in
queue
who
would
like
to
speak
on
item
one
seeing
none?
I
will
close
the
public
hearing
and
move
to
delete
this
item
from
our
agenda.
E
I
C
J
A
C
K
F
B
That
carries
and
that
item
is
adopted
and
we'll
go
to
the
city
council
meeting
on
friday
next
friday.
The
next
item
is
a
public
hearing
for
an
ordinance
related
to
easing
restrictions
for
employee
furloughs
immediately
before
or
after
paid
holidays.
This
ordinance
was
introduced
by
councilmember
palmisano
I'll
recognize
our
labor
relations
director,
laura
davis,
to
give
a
brief
presentation
on
this
item.
I
I
was
muted,
I'm
sorry
good
afternoon
share
bender
vice
chair
jenkins
and
members
of
the
committee.
Could
I
share
my
screen
for
just
a
moment
to
be
able
to
put
the
the
furlough
ordinance
on
the
screen.
I
I
Thank
you
so
now
I
need
to
look
at
it
okay,
good
afternoon.
This
is
a
very
small
change
to
the
ordinance
section
20.3,
which
modifies
the
language
of
when
an
employee
can
be
paid
for
a
holiday,
notwithstanding
the
fact
that
they
are
not
working.
I
The
current
language,
as
you
can
see,
indicates
that,
in
order
to
be
paid
for
one
of
the
city's
recognized
holidays,
an
employee
is
required
to
work
at
least
two
hours
before
the
holiday
two
hours
on
the
day
before
the
holiday
and
two
hours
on
the
day
after
the
holiday
or
they
are
on
vacation
or
sick
leave.
So
generally,
an
employee
is
required
to
be
in
paid
status.
I
I
And
the
primary
reason
for
this
change,
I
would
add,
is
that
the
letters
of
agreement
that
we
are
reaching
with
the
bargaining
units
that
will
be
participating
in
the
mandatory
furloughs
also
allow
for
this,
and
it
was
important
to
reach
equity
with
our
non-union
employees
that
will
also
be
participating
in
the
mandatory
furloughs,
including
the
non-represented,
the
politically
appointed
and
the
appointed
city
employees.

B
E
E
Thank
you
very
much
item
number
20
has
to
do
with
the
lease
agreement
for
the
temporary
relocation
of
the
third
precinct,
and
this
location
would
be
at
2633
minnehaha
avenue,
which
is
in
the
second
ward.
So
I
just
wanted
my
colleagues
to
know
that
I've
been
briefed
on
this.
I
encourage
folks
to
look
at
it
for
the
people
in
the
second
ward.
This
could
pose
certain
challenges
in
terms
of
community
worries
and
concerns
and
fears
and
hopes.
I've
barely
started
on
a
community
engagement
process.
E
To
better
understand
that
you
all,
if
you
aren't
already,
should
be
aware
that
this
is
roughly
four
blocks
away
from
the
auto
max
that
was
burned,
the
little
closer
to
the
cub
store
that
was
destroyed
and
the
target,
and
just
a
little
further
than
that
from
the
third
precinct
itself.
E
E
One
of
the
reasons
for
that
has
to
do
with
vacating
the
current
location,
which
may
be
needed
in
november
for
elections,
which
is
at
the
convention
center,
but
not
moving
in
until
october
means
there's
more
time
for
the
community
to
kind
of
have
a
discussion
about
this.
There
may
be
opportunities
to
address
some
concerns
in
terms
of
how
we
do
the
redesign
and
prepare
the
site
for
it
and
how
we
move
into
it.
E
So
I'm
just
going
to
be
asking
for
some
patience
and
some
sensitivity
from
others,
as
I
understand
better
about
what
kind
of
impacts
this
might
have
or
concerns
from
the
community,
I
suspect
many
will
welcome
it.
There's
a
sense
of
having
the
precinct
closer
to
the
heart
of
the
area
will
make
a
difference
than
where
it
is
now
the
precinct
headquarters
so
we'll
see
so
I'm
not
foreshadowing
what
those
outcomes
of
the
community
engagement
might
be.
E
But
I'm
I'm
willing
to
support
this
step
here
and
I'll
keep
having
conversations
until
friday
and
we'll
see
what
where
we
land
there
and
then
also
if
it
goes
forward
after
that,
what
we
can
do
before
october
to
make
sure
that
we
do
this
in
as
a
respectful
way
and
maybe
leveraging
it
to
help
us
with
some
of
the
healing.
That
definitely
needs
to
be
done
in
this
part
of
our
city.
That
was
so
severely
damaged
and
is
still
so
severely
scarred
from
the
civil
unrest
that
resulted
from
the
killing
of
george
floyd.
M
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
wanted
to
add
to
that
point
that
as
the
council
member,
where
who
represents
the
area
where
the
third
precinct
headquarters
were
stationed
and
where
the
city
does
own
the
property
currently
now
for
that
site
that
we
have
had
people
eagerly
reaching
out
with
various
ideas
about
what
the
city
could
do
with
the
third
precinct
site.
M
I
know
that
I'm
not
supportive
of
re-instituting
a
third
precinct
headquarters
there
and
I've
said
that
publicly
in
the
past
and
just
wanted
to
share
that
with
colleagues
here
today,
and
you
know
in
these
conversations
that
we've
been
having
regarding
community
engagement
and
a
process,
a
public
process
for
decision
making
on
sites
like
38th
and
chicago
I'll.
M
The
general
area,
as
you
can
imagine,
is
pretty
it's
pretty
challenged
in
that
several
buildings
in
that
intersection
were
burned
down.
M
So
it's
not
just
about
the
the
future
rebuild
of
the
the
city-owned
lot,
where
the
third
precinct
headquarters
are,
but
also
the
surrounding
buildings
on
that
block
and
on
the
blocks
that
are
kitty
corner
to
it
in
general.
That
area
is
represented
by
myself,
councilmember
gordon
and
councilmember
johnson,
just
broadly
speaking,
of
kind
of
who's.
In
that
universe-
and
I
know
I've
convened
a
meeting
with
my
colleagues
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
how
we
put
a
structure
to
a
public-facing
process
that
can
help
engage
the
many
stakeholders
in
that
area.
M
So
a
part
of
that
conversation
is
connected
to
the
structure
that
we
might
put
together
for
38th
in
chicago
and
just
to
share
with
my
colleagues
here,
the
council
president
and
the
council
vice
president,
and
I
have
been
in
conversations
about
how
we
do
that.
You
know
how
do
we
put
that
process
together?
M
What
would
it
look
like,
and
I
don't
think
we
have
a
specific
item
to
bring
forward
today
on
this
item,
but
I
did
want
to
let
colleagues
know
that
these
are
conversations
that
are
happening
and
we're
very
much
thinking
forward
about
how
to
put
those
pieces
together
in
a
publicly
legible
way,
so
that
folks
don't
depend
on
private
relationships
with
council
members
to
know.
What's
going
on
that,
there's
a
very
external
facing
process
that
anyone
can
plug
into
and
support
or
participate
in
or
gather
information
about
what
decisions
have
been
made.
M
N
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
wanted
to
just
briefly
comment
on
item
number
23,
which
is
the
name
change
of
a
neighborhood
in
my
ward,
we'll
be
changing
based
on
this
petition,
the
name
of
the
west
calhoun
neighborhood
to
west
mccoska,
and
I
would
say
this
is
a
conversation.
That's
been
happening
over
the
past
couple
of
years
in
this
part
of
the
13th
ward.
I
just
wanted
to
affirm
that
while
we
cannot
change
the
past,
our
neighbors
in
this
neighborhood
did
not
want
to
honor
the
legacy
of
mr
calhoun.
N
Renaming
a
neighborhood
certainly
won't
undo
the
past
and
past
legacies
and
practices
of
our
city.
It
is
a
small
but
potent
symbol.
I
think
of
our
civic
values-
and
this
is
one
of
minneapolis's,
many
beautiful
neighborhoods,
and
it
is
now
named
intentionally
and
through
a
lot
of
public
discussion
to
honor
the
dakota
occupants
of
this
land
and
to
really
honor
the
history
of
the
dakota
people
in
our
city.
B
I
do
just
want
to
mention
that
in
the
interest
of
time
we
did
not
ask
for
a
presentation
about
these
items,
but
items
7,
eight
and
nine
are
important
pieces
of
our
work
to
shelter
and
house
folks
in
our
community,
either
by
preventing
homelessness
and
eviction
in
the
first
place,
working
to
stabilize
rental
properties
that
are
in
the
very
small
one
to
four
unit
range
and
providing
some
so
that
item
nine
is
a
series
of
grants
to
organizations
that
are
working
to
stabilize
rental
housing
in
the
one
to
four
unit
range
item.
B
Eight
is
related
to
our
4d
program,
which
is
helping
preserve,
affordable
housing
in
rental
properties
across
the
city
and
item.
Seven
is
part
of
the
emergency
solutions
grant
funds
that
we
are
getting
out
the
door
to
community
organizations,
in
this
case
the
aicdc
to
do
services
and
outreach
to
folks
who
are
experiencing
homelessness,
working
to
connect
them
to
shelter,
to
services
and
to
housing,
and
we
found.
Of
course.
I
think
it
is
heartbreaking
for
all
of
us
to
watch
what's
happening
in
our
parks
and
across
the
city
as
folks
are
living
in
very
unsafe
conditions.
B
But
also,
you
know,
no
one
wants
to
see
people
experiencing
homelessness
in
the
first
place
and
certainly
not
having
to
continue
to
leave
and
move
from
place
to
place,
and
so
I
think,
on
the
one
hand,
the
solutions
are
quite
simple,
and
that
is
we
need
more
shelter
and
housing.
B
But
on
the
other
hand,
the
work
to
connect
people
to
those
resources
really
takes
a
lot
of
one-on-one
care
and
we
have
folks
who
are
sleeping
unsheltered
who
have
been
in
housing
and
in
shelter
recently,
who
need
help
reconnecting
to
those
supports
and
services,
and
we
have
found
that
that
one-on-one
outreach
is
really
the
most
effective
way
to
get
people
connected
to
housing.
So
the
aicdc
is
a
really
important
partner.
This
will
almost
double
their
capacity
and
we
expect
them
to
be
able
to
help
connect.
B
You
know
a
couple
of
hundred
people
to
housing
through
this
outreach
work
and
probably
many
more
to
shelter
and
services.
So
thanks
to
the
housing
staff
who
are
continuing
to
work
on
this-
and
this
is
something
that
we
could
have
back
to
one
of
the
committees
in
the
future,
for
I
think
further
and
more
in-depth
discussion,
anything
else
on
the
consent
agenda.
E
E
A
C
K
C
B
B
B
When
we
talked
about
bringing
this
item
to
this
committee,
there
wasn't
time
to
notice
a
public
hearing,
so
there
hasn't
been
a
public
hearing
noticed
for
this
item.
So
today
we
will
be
having
a
staff
presentation
from
director
hutchinson
of
the
public
works
department.
I
imagine
my
colleagues
who
represent
the
area
will
have
some
comments.
Maybe
there'll
be
questions
and
then
I
believe
our
intention
is
to
host
a
public
hearing
on
this
intersection
and
the
decisions
in
the
future.
O
Good
afternoon,
chair
bender
and
members
of
the
committee,
thank
you
to
the
clerk's
office
for
displaying
the
presentation,
I'm
robin
hutchison,
the
director
of
public
works.
I
want
to
note
that
today,
I'm
going
to
be
joined
by
david
rubidor,
the
director
of
neighborhood
and
community
relations
and
as
well,
andrea
brennan.
The
interim
director
of
community
planning
and
economic
development
is
also
with
us
to
help
to
answer
any
questions
that
may
come
up.
O
I'm
going
to
be
making
a
brief
presentation
today
with
an
update
on
the
intersection
of
38th
in
chicago.
Before
I
go
any
further,
I
want
to
recognize
the
effort
of
a
team
of
city-wide
staff
who
have
poured
their
energy
and
their
souls
into
this
work
and
in
no
real
particular
order.
I'm
just
going
to
list
staff.
O
I
know
many
of
them
are
watching.
They
care
deeply
about
what
happens
here
and
what
happens
in
this
city.
Alexander,
cato
anthony
taylor,
bree
golding
ethan,

karen
moe
melinda
zhang
mary
altman,
trey,
joyner,
zoteel,
steve
mosing,
dave
herberhold,
sarah
mckenzie,
I
am
positive.
I
missed
some
people
and
I
apologize
if
I
have,
but
I
have
to
say
their
names.
They
have
done
tremendous
work,
really
supporting
this
multi-disciplinary
collaborative
effort
and
the
work
that
you
see
from
this
point
forward
is
a
reflection
of
their
commitment.
O
O
I
will
go
into
some
recent
history
here,
just
tough
to
set
the
frame
on
may
25th
2020
george
floyd,
a
black
man,
died
in
the
custody
of
minneapolis
police
at
the
intersection
of
38th
street
and
chicago
avenue.
Since
then,
the
intersection
has
been
a
focal
point
for
people
mourning
george
floyd
and
calling
for
racial
justice.
O
This
geographic
intersection
has
a
long
cultural
history
within
the
african-american
community,
especially
as
it
relates
to
the
city's
role
in
supporting
or
thwarting
wealth,
community
and
asset
building,
housing
and
access
to
economic
security
for
the
american
african-american
community
and
38th
in
chicago
is
an
access
point
between
four
distinct
neighborhoods,
central
bryant,
bancroft
and
powderhorn
park.
It's
also
between
two
council
wards,
eight
and
nine.
O
O
City,
elected
officials
and
staff
have
been
actively
engaging
with
community
members
since
may,
david
rubidor
will
cover
more
about
that
in
his
slides,
we've
heard
so
many
perspectives
about
this
intersection,
both
short
and
long-term
desires,
and
and
what
is
needed
just
note.
This
picture
that
you
see
here
is
from
when,
before
the
barricades
were
placed,
so
there
was
no
doubt
in
our
minds
as
a
city
that
we
needed
to
do
something
in
may
to
protect
the
visitors
to
this
place.
O
We
often
note-
and
you
have
heard
this
from
me
before-
that
22
of
the
city's
land
is
within
the
right-of-way
and
it's
a
powerful
reminder
that
a
street
is
more
than
just
a
place
for
cars.
This
is
how
we
do
our
work.
The
street
is
a
basic
unit
of
urban
space
through
which
people
experience
a
city.
They
are
dynamic
spaces
that
adapt
over
time
and
support
environmental
sustainability,
public
health,
economic
activity
and
cultural
significance.
O
O
This
particular
place
has
transformed
into
a
place
of
reflection,
mourning
community
congregation,
art
conversation,
protest,
pain,
sorrow,
joy
and
reimagination
from
that
fateful
day
forward.
We
as
a
city
enterprise
and
with
the
community,
have
continually
asked
how
we
can
eternalize
this
space
for
future
generations
so
that
its
function
can
reflect
community
needs.
O
J
David,
I
was
still
on
you,
my
apologies.
If
we
could
advance
for
the
next
slide,
that
would
that
would
be
great.
I
just
want
to
thank
director
hutchinson
for
the
introduction
and
really
the
opportunity
to
be
part
of
this
presentation
as
well
today,
good
afternoon,
chair,
bender
and
council
members.
My
name
is
david
rubidor
and
I'm
the
director
of
the
neighborhood
and
community
relations
department
with
the
city
of
minneapolis.
J
J
Here
we
go
so,
as
director
hutchinson
stated,
I'm
going
to
give
an
update
on
the
community
engagement
work,
that's
occurred
to
date,
but
I
also
want
to
start
with
reiterating
a
bit
of
what
she
had
said
about
our
engagement
team
and
the
work
that
they've
been
doing.
You
can
see
their
names
listed
on
the
slide
here,
and
I
just
really
want
to
thank
the
staff
for
their
commitment
and
their
work
to
supporting
on
the
engagement
for
the
city.
J
This
has
been
a
really
complicated
emotional
and
important
situation
for
not
only
our
city
but
also
for
our
country,
and
this
has
been
a
tremendous
lift
by
our
staff.
The
engagement
team
has
spent
many
weekends
and
evenings
meeting
with
community
members
over
the
past
several
months
and
they
invested.
They
have
invested
a
lot
of
their
professional
as
well
as
personal
capital,
in
making
sure
that
we
work
towards
a
positive
outcome
for
the
intersection
and
its
long-term
impact
in
our
community.
J
Their
commitment
to
seeing
this
through
has
been
has
been
greatly
appreciated
and
has
been
greatly
valued,
and
I
just
cannot
overstate
the
importance
of
the
work
that
they
have
been
doing
so,
starting
with
the
a
summary
of
the
work,
the
engagement
work
that
has
been
done
to
date,
beginning
in
mid-june,
the
engagement
team
developed
a
framework
for
engaging
for
engagement
in
the
area.
J
The
approach
started
with
taking
the
time
to
listen
to
the
community
and
later
evolved
into
supporting
the
community
in
a
variety
of
ways.
There
have
been
many
different
groups
meeting
in
the
area,
including
twice
daily,
on
the
street
meetings
with
local
organizers,
a
number
of
meetings
and
events
hosted
by
the
bryant,
central
and
powderhorn
neighborhoods
and
various
block
club
meetings
near
the
intersection
staff
have
attended
over
more
than
80
different
community,
hosted
meetings
since
mid-june,
and
have
had
numerous
conversations
with
community
members
and
residents
and
businesses
in
the
area.
J
J
The
council
offices,
311
and
911
have
also
received
a
number
of
calls
and
comments
regarding
38th
in
chicago,
and
we
try
to
reflect
what
we've
heard
from
all
of
these
conversations
and
our
report
to
you
today.
So
if
we
can
jump
to
the
next
slide,
recognizing
the
significance
of
both
this
intersection
and
the
city's
history
as
council,
as
a
director
hutchinson
has
mentioned,
and
the
impact
of
the
killing
of
george
floyd,
our
initial
engagement
approach
was
to
introduce
ourselves
as
representatives
of
the
city
and
to
the
community.
J
We
knew
that
the
trust
between
the
community
and
the
city
was
broken
and
that
we
needed
to
be
thoughtful
on
re-establishing
a
dialogue
and
that
could
not
be
rushed.
So
for
the
first
several
weeks,
the
engagement
team
was
intentional
about
being
present,
building
relationships
and
working
to
re-establish
trust
trust.
J
J
The
team
attended
the
twice
daily
meetings
on
the
street
with
the
community
organizers,
attended,
a
number
of
neighborhood
organization
meetings,
block
club
meetings
and
the
meetings
hosted
by
the
council
members
as
well.
J
The
team
also
brought
back
any
operational
needs
to
the
operations
team,
which
was
housed
in
public
works
and,
as
as
director
hutchinson
mentioned,
was
actively
responding
to
those
logistical
needs,
the
entire
time.
Over
the
past
several
months.
J
We
started
to
have
conversations
about
the
planning
for
the
future
of
38th
in
chicago
and
started
introducing
questions
like
what
is
what
what
is
a
good
timeline
for
reopening
what
are
the
viable
considerations
for
the
future
and
what
is
the
process
to
co-create
the
opening
with
the
community
and
that
these
ideas
were
starting
to
be
introduced
into
the
dialogue
in
early
august?
The
city?
J
More
formally
announced
a
partially
a
partial
reopening
for
the
scheduled
for
the
week
of
august
17th
council
members
started
to
introduce
the
idea
of
a
phased
reopening
at
community
meetings,
and
the
engagement
team
also
met
with
a
number
of
community
leaders
to
inform
them
of
the
city's
intent
to
begin
a
phased
re-opening
in
mid-august.
J
So,
as
I
mentioned
at
the
beginning,
this
is
a
complicated
situation.
There
have
been
many
different
groups
working
in
the
area
and
the
ideas
of
what
happens
next
or
what
the
long-term
vision
is
for.
The
intersection
still
remain
uncertain,
though,
through
the
many
meetings
attended
or
held
by
council
members
neighborhood
organizations
of
black
hubs
residents,
as
well
as
input
from
3-1-1
and
9-1-1,
I
have
to
report
that
it's
been
difficult
to
find
any
consensus
about
how
to
move
forward.
J
However,
through
the
dialogue
and
the
feedback,
there
are
some
common
themes
that
we
wanted
to
report
back
to
you
today.
So
this
is
what
we've
heard:
there's
a
strong
emphasis
on
seeing
racial
justice
and
equitable
community
development
that
serves
historically
marginalized
by
poc
communities.
There's
a
strong.
There
are
strong
concerns
about
public
safety
in
the
area.
J
There
are
many
different,
divergent
opinions
on
what
changes
in
street
access
may
mean
for
public
safety,
preserving
space
for
mourning
and
to
preserve
the
living
street.
Memorial
is
important.
The
area
of
chicago
avenue
from
the
roundabout
fist
sculpture
north
of
38th
street
is
especially
important
connecting
with
the
many
artists
who
have
contributed
art
to
the
area
as
well
as
the
arts,
organizations
nearby
needs
to
continue
and
be
supported,
there's
a
need
for
expanded
access,
including
access
for
the
five
and
the
23
bus
and
less
traffic
on
nearby
streets.
J
There's
a
desire
for
clarity
on
next
steps
in
the
short
and
longer
term,
including
work
along
work
related
to
a
memorial
honoring
george
floyd
questions
about
what
winter
means
for
the
space
access
and
the
memorial
are
also
present,
and
there
are
a
range
of
ideas
for
reopening
the
street
from
leaving
it
closed
indefinitely.
To
request
opening
the
street
of
fully
reopening
the
street
immediately.
J
The
engagement
team,
which
has
been
on
been
at
the
on-the-street
meetings
over
the
course
of
the
summer,
has
heard
the
most
about
leaving
the
intersection
closed.
Other
conversations
and
feedback
have
expressed
a
desire
to
get
the
intersection
reopened
so
presently
staff
continue
to
attend
community
meetings
in
the
area.
We've
also
created
a
website
with
the
most
current
information
and
an
email
address
38th
in
chicago
38th
in
chicago
at
minneapolismn.gov,
and
an
online
comment
form,
so
people
have
another
way
to
share
their
feedback
directly
to
the
city.
J
O
O
O
O
Go
to
the
next
slide.
Please,
our
teams,
in
traffic
and
in
transportation
maintenance
have
been
stretching
themselves
pretty
far
to
address
the
neighborhood
impacts.
This
is
an
image
of
a
temporary
speed
bump
that
has
been
installed.
We've
installed
numerous
of
these
in
the
neighborhood,
at
the
request
to
alleviate
some
speeding
concerns,
which
is
a
byproduct
of
the
trafficked
version.
O
You
can
go
to
the
next
slide.
Please
you've
heard
this
term
phase
reopening
as
a
result
of
our
recognition
of
the
importance
of
the
site,
the
breadth
of
community
feedback
and
the
challenges
and
recognizing
fully
there
isn't
a
consensus
of
opinion.
We
have
developed
a
phased
plan
for
reopening
the
city
recognizes.
We
recognize
that
racial
healing
and
justice
must
be
at
the
forefront
of
our
work,
and
we
continue
to
commit
to
working
with
the
community.
O
Second,
we
want
to
preserve
public
art,
the
artistic
expression
in
this
intersection,
it's
a
beacon
to
visitors,
and
we
seek
to
preserve
this
expression.
If
the
community
and
artists
desire
it,
we
want
to
improve
access
for
businesses,
residents,
transit
and
emergency
responders,
and
we
want
to
reconnect
neighborhoods.
O
O
O
O
O
As
we
think
about
38th
street,
we
often
use
this
as
a
focal
point.
I
know
that
when
I
have
been
there,
I
certainly
do,
and
so
we
are
centering
that
and
go
to
the
next
slide.
Please
centering
that
in
our
and
our
concepts
for
a
phase
reopening
in
our
existing
conditions,
we
have
the
placement
of
the
current
barricades
are
pretty
far
out
of
the
intersection
and
those
are
reflected
by
the
red
lines
on
the
screen.
O
The
team
has
developed
a
couple
of
different
options
for
consideration.
The
first
option
is
to
re-open
38th
street
only
and
preserve
the
roundabout,
the
community
constructed
roundabout
and
the
artwork
if
the
artist
so
desires
in
the
intersection.
O
So
that
is
what
we
mean
when
we
say
phased
reopening
thanks
for
advancing.
I
was
about
to
say
that
oh
we're
good
thanks.
Thank
you.
I
I
want
to
turn
now
to
our
long-term
commitments.
I
our
work
to
date
has
has
also
included.
At
the
same
time,
it
has
included
very
short-term
conversations.
It
has
also
included
identifying
opportunities
for
longer-term
commitment.
O
City
leaders
have
met
with
community
leaders
who
have
authored
that
previously
mentioned
resolution
outlining
a
series
of
demands
to
consider
and
we
are
working
through
these
items
today,
I'm
going
to
highlight
a
number
of
efforts
to
demonstrate
long-term
commitment.
This
is
by
no
means
comprehensive,
and
I
also
want
to
recognize
that
andrea
brennan.
Many
of
these
items
are
led
out
of
cped
and
she
has
joined
us
today
for
any
follow-up
questions
that
may
occur.
O
So
just
a
few
things.
The
council
recently
passed
a
resolution
declaring
racism
led
a
lot
of
leadership
in
there
and
council
vice
president
being
among
the
leaders
in
that
a
milestone
moment
for
the
city
to
have
adopted
that
the
last
week,
the
city
council
designated
38th
street
as
one
of
the
cultural
districts.
This
really
invests
a
lot
fuels
economic
growth
in
these
areas
there
are
the
new
commercial
property
development
fund
is
a
tool
that
can
help
focus
on
economically
challenged
areas
with
respect
to
housing
programs.
O
O
From
the
last
couple
of
years,
the
city
has
been
working
led
by
community
planning,
and
economic
development
has
been
preparing
the
38th
street
thrive
plan.
This
is
still
set
for
adoption
and
city
staff
are
working
on
a
new
preference
policy.
This
brings
more
focused
investment.
O
That
includes
the
area
of
the
four
neighborhoods
that
converge
at
38th
in
chicago.
O
And
I
want
to
talk
also
about
the
investment
in
in
the
physical
place.
Here
first
is,
as
you
are
all
aware,
the
renaming
of
chicago
avenue
is
working
its
way
through
the
approval
process.
O
Second
thing
I'll
highlight
is
that
we
have
planned
capital
dollars
in
this
area,
we're
working
to
accelerate
that
so
that
we
can
reconstruct
chicago
and
38th
street
in
the
vision
that
the
community
sets
forward.
That
total
is
4.7
million
dollars.
O
We
are
also
very
much
supportive
of
behind
pushing
as
hard
as
we
can
on
the
metro,
d-line
bus,
rapid
transit
project.
This
is
one
of
the
most
important
transit
investments
that
can
be
made
in
the
city
of
minneapolis,
with
57
percent
of
the
population
within
a
half,
a
mile
of
the
route
being
people
of
color
and
44
within
a
half
mile
are
low
income.
This
is
an
investment
in
mobility
for
people
again
not
a
fully
comprehensive
list,
but
we
do
want
to
highlight
that
we
we
want
to
make
long-term
investments.
O
In
addition
to
talking
about
shorter
term
actions,
as
director
rubidor
mentioned,
there
are
opportunities
for
community
input.
I
want
to
thank
the
communications
team
for
putting
this
together
two
ways
you
can
get
information
from
the
website
and
sign
up
to
receive
updates.
You
can
also
provide
your
feedback
by
emailing
38th
in
chicago
at
minneapolis.gov.
O
F
First
of
all,
I
want
to
just
really
thank
the
outstanding
team
that
has
been
assembled
by
director
hutchinson,
as
well
as
director,
rubidor
and
and
others,
for
their
continued
engagement
and
and
just
earnestly
listening
to
community
and
being
a
part
of
those
conversations.
As
director
hutchinson
mentioned,
over
80
different
meetings
have
been
attended
by
city
staff
over
the
past
since
june
many
of
them
I
I
was
a
part
of
myself,
and
so
it
was.
F
I
witnessed
that
engaging
with
our
neighbors
in
that
corridor,
and
you
know
just
really
want
to
thank
them
for
their
efforts.
I
really
want
to
just
acknowledge
the
the
community
that
is
there
day
and
night
since
may
25th
and
the
the
tragic
killing
of
george
floyd,
which
has
erupted
in
unrest
throughout
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
throughout
the
country
and
throughout
the
world,
and
it
has
really
unearthed
the
the
systemic
racism
that
is
inherent
in
our
society.
F
The
the
deep
structural
challenges
that
continue
to
oppress
communities
of
color.
To
this
day,
you
know
those
combined
with
covet
19
has
really
made
this.
This
community
of
people
of
color.
F
African-American
community
deeply
on
edge,
deeply
challenged
and
just
exhausted
from
dealing
with
the
the
daily
challenges
that
that
racism
imparts
on
communities,
and
so
I
want
to
acknowledge
their
commitment,
their
trauma,
the
pain
that
they
are
experiencing.
F
Here
in
our
city,
I
appreciate
all
of
the
the
background
that
director
hutchinson
laid
out
in
terms
of
the
efforts
that
the
city
has
been
taking
to
date,
the
potential
process
for
a
partial
reopening.
F
But
I
want
to
be
clear
that
the
the
issues
around
seeking
justice
are
first
and
foremost
in
my
mind,
and
are
very
much
front
and
center
in
in
this
effort.
F
And
you
know
I
want
to
say
to
the
community
members
that
may
be
listening
in
that
we,
the
city
I,
the
ward,
8
representative,
councilmember,
connell,
representing
the
ninth
ward,
are
committed
and-
and
all
of
my
colleagues
are,
which
is
why
we
are
having
this
presentation
today
and
and
planning
for
continued
conversations
and
engagement
around
this
issue
in
the
future,
that
we
are
committed
to
bringing
justice
not
only
to
to
george
floyd
through
developing
a
permanent
memorial
at
this
intersection,
but
to
justice
to
our
community.
F
By
really
addressing
these
deep
concerns
and
and
ads
that
have
been
put
forward
in
the
justice
resolution.
F
Happen
overnight,
the
issues
that
have
created
these
conditions
did
not
occur
overnight.
They
were
centuries
and
decades
in
the
making
and-
and
it's
going
to
take
equally-
I
think
concentrated
effort-
certainly
not
centuries
or
decades,
but
we
must
be
very
diligent
in
in
planning
how
we
disrupt
these
systems
that
continue
to
oppress
communities
and
how
we
are
going
to
redress
the
harms
that
have
been
done,
and
so
you
know
we
I
I
was
elected
to
represent
the
ward
8.
F
I
I
know
for
a
fact
that
we
must
work
together
with
community
to
bring
these
things
to
reality,
and
so
I'm
working
together
with
councilmember
connell
to
bring
forward
which
he
referenced
a
little
bit
earlier,
a
resolution
establishing
establishing
a
commission
to
discuss
how
we
address
justice
not
only
for
the
areas
surrounding
38
and
in
chicago,
but
for
our
entire
city.
This
this.
F
These,
these
conversations
impact
the
entire
world,
and
we
can
no
longer
just
continue
to
have
sort
of
these
private
conversations
and
meetings
with
just
a
couple
of
city,
council
members
and
a
couple
of
neighborhood
residents.
The
issues
are
much
broader
than
that,
and
so
we
are
trying
to
develop
a
process
by
which
we
can
engage
with
community
in
a
formalized
manner
to
really
work
together
to
bring
forward
these.
These.
F
These
issues
and
desires-
I
know
that
many
people
say
we're
tired
of
meetings.
We're
tired
of
discussing,
but
the
the
reality
is.
These
issues
cannot
be
resolved
in
a
vacuum.
We
must
work
together
to
do
this
really
important
work
to
bring
about
justice
in
our
communities.
F
So,
to
that
end,
we're
bringing
forward
a
resolution
to
establish
establish
a
commission
to
to
move
forward
on
this
work.
We
will,
at
that
point,
set
a
public
hearing
to
to
listen
to
community
and
and
hear
their
ideas
and
comments
and
concerns
and
continue
to
work
to
move
forward.
In
the
meantime,
we
will
be
working
on
the
the
short-term
goals,
along
with
community,
to
figure
out.
How
do
we
begin
a
stage
and.
F
Reasons
that
director
hutchinson
mentioned
you
know
our
city
has
been
absolutely
committed
to
the
issues
of
racial
justice,
since
this
council
has
formulated
and
even
prior
to
that,
my
predecessor,
council
member
glidden,
had
already
established
a
racial
equity
initiative
in
the
city
and
we've
been
able
to
move
that
work
forward
by
adopting
a
racial,
a
strategic,
racial
equity
action
plan
which
incorporates
racial
equity
into
every
decision
that
we
make
in
the
city
of
minneapolis,
we've
developed
a
racial
equity
advisory
committee
to
hold
us
accountable
to
those
issues
and
concerns.
F
We
have
a
document,
a
form:
the
ratio,
equity
impact
analysis
which
will
help
us
to
understand
how
our
policies
are
impacting
vulnerable
communities
and
and
ways
identify
ways
that
we
can
improve
our
improve
outcomes.
If
we
are
not
seen
as
equitable
as
we
possibly
can.
We
adopted
the
the
2040
plan
that
is
intended
to
redress
these
issues.
F
Many
of
the
concerns
that
have
been
addressed
in
the
justice
resolution
the
city
of
minneapolis,
has
already
having
in
place.
As
was
mentioned.
We
just
began.
We
just
adopted
cultural
districts
and
38th
street
has
always
been
a
part
of
that
conversation
of
being
a
cultural
district,
and
that
work
has
been
going
on
for
the
past
five
years.
F
J
F
In
the
midst
of
working
on
a
project
called
minneapolis
board,
which
will
help
to
raise
money
to
support
small
businesses
recovering
from
the
the
covent
crisis,
as
well
as
the
uprisings
and
subsequent
unrest
and
and
destruction
of
property
in
in
the
city
of
minneapolis,
and
certainly
38th
in
chicago,
will,
will
be
highlighted
and
a
part
of
those
efforts.
F
So
we
are
absolutely
committed
to
bringing
justice
to
our
communities
and
I
look
forward
to
working
with
everybody
who
is
about
achieving
justice,
and
with
that
I
will
turn
it
over
to
my
other
colleagues
who
may
want
to
speak-
and
I
want
to
thank
you,
madam
president,
for
helping
to
elevate
this
issue
to
the
city
council
and
being
willing
to
support
the
work
of
myself
and
and
councilmember
cano,
and
I
asked
for
the
support
of
the
rest
of
my
colleagues
as
well.
Thank
you.
So
much.
B
Thank
you,
council
vice
president,
and
I
know
that
this
intersection
is
near
and
dear
to
your
heart
council.
Vice
president,
having
worked
on
investment
here
for
many
decades,
so
you
know,
as
we
imagine
the
next
phase
of
this
space
as
a
memorial.
B
E
Thank
you
very
much,
and
I
am
really
appreciate
this
presentation
and
getting
to
understand
more
of
what's
going
on
and
being
thought
about
here,
and
I
come
from
this
from
the
point
of
view
that
I
really
want
to
support
my
colleagues
in
the
work
that
we're
doing
there.
I
also
understand,
on
a
city-wide
level
how
important
chicago
avenue
and
38
are
in
terms
of
circulation
bus
routes.
E
You
know
helping
people
get
connected
and
moved
around,
and
it
looks
like
really
where
we
are
moving
is
for
some
kind
of
a
partial
modified
reopening
to
get
traffic
back
on
the
streets,
and
I
might
have
missed
something,
but
I
just
wanted.
I
was
curious
if
we'd
done
much
of
a
deeper
analysis
and,
conversely,
if
there's
been
much
public
requesting
making
it
a
permanent
pedestrian
plaza,
there.
O
Madam
chair
councilmember,
gordon,
I
will
do
my
best
to
answer
that
question.
It
has
been
a
mere
couple
of
months
since
this
has
been
in
place.
E
Thank
you.
I
really
appreciate
that
answering
that
clarity
and
it
would
be
a
big
big
undertaking
but
appreciate
it,
and-
and
I
can't
wait
to
learn
more
about
the
resolution-
that's
forthcoming
and
other
ways
that
I
can
help
as
a
council
member
for
the
second.
E
M
I'll
say
that
you
know
I'm,
I'm
I've
been
seeing
just
the
the
immense
amount
of
engagement
that
is
happening
on
this
intersection,
and
I
do
you
know.
Echo
council,
vice
president
jenkins
gratitude
to
the
many
staff
members
who
have
made
themselves
available
above
and
beyond
regular
work
hours
to
receive
this
energy
and
to
reflect
it
back
and
to
help
us
figure
out
how
to.
M
Make
sure
that
we're
connecting
all
of
these
discussions,
because
I
believe
that
were
were
truly
more
in
alignment
than
than
what
a
nominal
sort
of
surface
look
might
might
lead.
M
One
to
think
a
lot
of
the
items
included
in
the
resolution
from
community
members
relating
to
demands
about
justice
with
the
the
intersection
with
the
discussions
of
the
reopening
of
the
intersection
are
things
that
the
city
has
already
been
working
on
or
is
working
on
now
or
can
be
very
easily
connected
to
the
work
that
we're
already
doing
around
either
abolishing
our
current
policing
system
and
or
creating
a
new
transformative
model
of
public
safety,
as
well
as
economic
development
and
anti-gentrification
work.
M
There's
there's
a
lot
of
overlap
in
in
many
of
these
discussions
and
I
think
the
the
most
pressing
I
think
you
know
challenge
here
is
going
to
be.
You
know
how.
How
do
we
weave
these
needs
and
conversations
and
desires
and
wants
together
and-
and
I
I
sense
that
as
sort
of
the
most
prominent
you
know,
vein
that
needs
to
be
really
reconnected
here.
M
Is
that
that
sense
of
togetherness
is,
is
only
is
shared
by
different
groups
at
different
levels,
but
all
of
those
groups
are
are
not
necessarily
in
unison,
together
and
and
they're
very
much
all
stakeholders
of
this
intersection.
It's
I'm
speaking
about
residents
that
live
there,
I'm
speaking
about
business
owners
and
non-profit
leaders
who
have
grown
roots
in
this
community
for
more
than
15
years.
M
I'm
talking
about
the
folks
who
are
now
active
there
on
the
site
and
trying
to
respond
to
the
daily
needs
of
the
area,
and
so
there's
there's
there's
a
lot
of
care
for
this
area.
There's
a
lot
of
people
that
care
about
making
sure
things
go,
go
well
here
and-
and
I
think
our
our
challenge
as
a
city
is
trying
to
figure
out.
M
How
do
we
create
that
sense
of
togetherness
between
all
those
groups,
so
I'll
just
put
that
on
as
a
as
a
radar
on
our
radar
there
and-
and
I
do
want
to
also
acknowledge
publicly
the
the
rich
racial
diversity
of
this
node
in
that
it's
such
a
unique
place.
M
You
know,
leaning
on
what
councilmember
jenkins
said,
as
as
historically
this
being
one
of
the
neighborhoods
central
neighborhood,
where
we
were
able
minneapolis
was
able
to
elect
the
first
african-american
mayor
of
the
city,
mayor
sales,
belton
and,
and
central
being.
You
know
one
of
her
bases
for
for
that
election
victory
and
so
really
looking
at
that
history
and
and
bringing
it
together
with
the
the
current
status
of
the
intersection.
Where
we
have.
M
You
know,
arts
organizations
like
pillsbury
house
and
theater
that
have
been
there
for
many
many
years,
supporting
the
young
folks
in
our
neighborhood
to
setul,
who
does
you
know,
workers
rights,
organizing
with
low-income
workers
and
low-wage
workers
across
the
city
to
win
young
huey
who's
been
a
part
of
the
the
anchoring
of
that
space
for
for
a
long
time
and
and
being
a
mentor
to
many
up-and-coming
artists
and
social
justice
fighters,
and
and
so
just
looking
at
the
sort
of
universe
that
that
is
there.
M
That's
very
richly,
unique
and
diverse
and
ensuring
that
those
folks
don't
get
displaced
or
don't
get.
You
know
pushed
out
by
potentially
you
know
new
investment
interests
who
are
really
looking
to
make.
M
This
the
next
happening
place
and
we're
not
able
to
anchor
those
voices
that
have
been
there
for
so
long
and
and
so
just
being
really
careful
and
mindful
of
how
that
economic
recovery
and
and
that
healing,
and
that
restorative
justice
all
play
together
in
this
in
this
intersection,
so
that
we
we
don't
accidentally,
have
unintended
outcomes
of
displacement
of
communities
of
color
and
and
the
diverse
voices
that
have
made
this
place
so
so
strong
for,
for,
I
think
you
know,
for
and
during
difficult
times-
and
I
do
I
do
want
to
say
that
we're
we're
trying
really
hard
to
think
about
how
we
build
this.
M
This
very
public,
legible
vehicle
of
engagement
that
can
drive
a
communal
vision
of
what
this
community
is
and
could
be
and
should
be.
And
of
course
you
know
with
councilmember
gordon's
comments
about
you
know.
Could
we
make
this
like
a
soca
low,
where
you
know
folks
are
kind
of
walking
by
and
and
there's
street
vendors
and
it's
more
of
like
a
an
activity?
That's
outdoors
for
pedestrians
and
and
sort
of
a
a
community-based
space
that
that
doesn't
necessarily
have
to
adhere
to.
M
You
know
the
needs
of
of
cars
and
traffic
and
so
forth,
but
it's
more
of
a
of
a
center
or
a
district
for
revitalization,
anchored
in
centering,
the
voices
of
justice
for
the
african-american
community
and
and
the
diverse
communities
that
are
there.
We're
gonna
need
the
funding
and
so
early
on.
I
remember
talking
to
to
our
director
here
hutch
the
director
hutchinson
about
how
much
how
much
money
would
it
take
to
sort
of
rebuild
this
intersection
and
make
it
something
different?
M
And
please
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
I
think
at
the
time
it
was
like
five
million
dollars,
and
so
it's
it's
going
to
take
a
lot
of
resources
to
get
the
investment
that
this
area
is
going
to
need
to
really
uphold
some
of
those
needs
and
desires,
and
that
vision
that
collective
vision
and
so
we're
going
to
we're
going
to
need
help
from
our
community
and
we're
going
to
need
help
from
foundations
and
we're
going
to
need
help
from
folks
with
wealth
and
resources
to
really
support
this
area
to
come
together.
M
Number
one.
I
don't
think
we
can
do
this
as
a
divided
family.
I
don't
think
we
can
do
this
as
a
divided
community
and
if
we
can't
get
through
that
division,
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
fulfill
that
potential,
and
so
we're
going
to
need
help
to
bring
people
together.
We're
going
to
need
help
to
create
this
vision
and
then
we're
going
to
need
help
to
raise
the
money
to
get
to
get
that
vision
to
come
to
become
a
reality.
M
B
Thank
you.
I
have
a
couple
of
kind
of
more
detailed
logistical
questions
for
staff.
Dr
hutchison,
can
you
remind
us
what's
the
current
thinking
on
the
implementation
timeline
for
the
d-line
in
kind
of
a
best-case
scenario,
if
you
will
about
the
funding
and
then
could
you
also
talk
through
the
timelines
related
to
the
options
that
you
showed
us
are
those
things
that
could
be
in
place
before
the
wintertime
or
was
that
more
of
a
longer-term
post-winter
time
idea.
O
Chair
bender,
the
question
about
d-line,
I'm
gonna
say
something
that
I'm
gonna
have
to
go
and
check
and
make
sure
it's
totally
accurate
once
we're
done
here,
but
the
d-line
is
actually
closer
than
we
think
in
that
soon
there
is
supposed
to
be
some
scheduled
utility
work
to
prepare
for
its
arrival.
O
2021
is
not
far
away.
2022,
I
believe,
is
when
the
project
would
be
finished,
so
we
we
should
assuming.
There
is
full
funding
for
there's
still.
I
think
I
believe
45
million
dollar
gap
to
close,
but
the
funding
is
assuming
there's
full
funding.
We
would
see
activity
in
2021
and
I
believe,
completion
2022.
O
When
I
referenced
our
acceleration
of
capital,
it
was
so
that
we
could
match
up
the
the
two,
the
capital
investment
from
the
city,
as
well
as
the
investment
made
by
metro
transit,
as
well
as
any
external
funds,
as
councilmember
cono
noted
that
we
will
continue
to
seek
to
augment
what
is
possible
here
on
the
options
we
began
really
with
38th
street,
and
you
know,
as
director
rubidour
noted,
we
had
considered
a
one
schedule.
O
We
we
don't
have
dates
now.
I
I
don't
have
a
target
date
or
week
that
set
of
activities
related
to
reopening
38th
street
would
take
a
couple
of
days
to
accomplish.
O
Our
plan
was
to
then
turn
to
more
engagement
about
chicago,
and
what
happens
there.
38Th
street
gives
us
the
best
opportunity
to
meet
some
of
the
principles
and
the
goals,
creating
a
little
more
access
being
able
to
maintain
a
little
better
for
winter.
So
I
don't
have
a
full
answer
to
the
timing
of
all
of
the
options
because
we
really
had
been
focusing
on
on
38th
street.
As
that
interim
step,
I
I
do
think
it's
it's
thank
you
for
bringing
up
winter.
O
F
O
Thinking
about
winner
right
now
in
in
public
works,
and
we
think
about
things
like
would
we
be
able
to
continue
to
serve
this
anything
that's
closed
in
the
same
way,
we
think
probably
not
I'm
still
looking
and
it
does
drive
a
little
bit
of
the
operational
conversation.
O
It's
a
neighborhood
node
and
we
we
don't
want
it
to
ever
feel
like
it's
abandoned.
So
that's
that's!
Some
of
our
thought
process
now.
B
B
So
it
sounds
like
for
next
steps.
There's
there'll
be
some
more
thinking
about
kind
of
creating
some
more
structure
for
the
community
engagement
and
then
perhaps
a
recommendation
back
to
the
council
through
a
committee
here
before
any
decision
is
made.
Does
that
sound
right.
O
I
would
welcome
additional
explain
our
work
and
I
will
work
with
your
yourself
council
president,
as
well
as
council.
Vice
president,
as
well
as
chair,
reich
on
as
we're
transitioning
back
on
additional
steps.
J
Chair
bender,
if
I
could,
this
is
david
rubidor,
and
I
also
heard
both
council
vice
president
jenkins
and
councilmember
connell,
talking
about
conversations
more
about
a
structured
engagement
process
moving
forward,
so
we'll
be
circling
back
with
them.
I'm
looking
forward
to
having
conversations
with
them
about
what
that
looks
like,
and
it
sounds
like
that'll
be
coming
back
to
the
council
as
well.
B
Seeing
none
thank
you
to
everyone,
who's
taken
part
in
this
really
important
conversation,
especially
to
those
members
of
the
community,
the
neighbors
who
live
nearby
and
folks
who
have
come
to
participate
in
mourning
and
action
at
the
intersection,
and
I
know
my
colleagues
have
been
working
so
hard
to
engage
all
of
these
voices
and
to
really
balance
all
of
the
needs
of
the
community,
so
extra
thanks
again
to
council
vice
president
jenkins
and
council
member
cono.
B
With
that,
I
will
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
this
report,
and
that
brings
us
to
our
final
item
for
today,
which
is
a
report
from
the
minneapolis
police
department
regarding
current
operations,
capacity
and
plans,
and
this
is
in
part
in
response
to
a
kind
of
brief
question
and
answer
with
chief
eridando
at
a
recent
council
meeting.
So
thank
you
chief.
I
know
I
sent
a
lot
of
questions
from
council
members.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
you
had
some
sense
of
what
what
kind
of
questions
folks
would
have
ahead
of
time.
B
P
Thank
you,
madam
chair
council
members.
Thank
you
for
having
me,
madam
chair
again.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
taking
your
time
and
diligence
to
gather
the
many
questions
with
that
and
because
some
of
the
questions
obviously
require
a
great
deal
of
more
information
that
goes
into
them.
P
I've
actually
conferred
and
reached
out
to,
as
discussed
with
our
city
clerk,
to
look
at
the
calendar,
the
council
calendar
and
want
to
very
respectfully
propose
a
future
study
session
date
and
I
believe
september
15th
would
work
if
the
madam
chair
and
the
council
members
so
wish.
But
again,
thank
you,
madam
chair,
for
gathering
those
questions.
P
I
also
want
to
take
a
moment
to
just
give
my
thanks
and
support
to
our
sworn
civilian
team
members
of
the
mpd,
who
just
continue
to
work
professionally,
been
very
dedicated
during
these
very
unprecedented
times
and
as
well.
I
want
to
acknowledge
our
many
communities
here
in
minneapolis
who've,
also
over
the
last
several
months,
continue
to
be
beacons
of
hope,
continue
to
work
on
community
safety
and
continue
to
look
after
our
elders
and
our
youth
in
our
community.
P
P
Yep
and
I'm
just
checking
in
with
our
man,
I'm
sure
apologize
for
the
pause
here,
but
we'll
take
one
moment
to
pause.
I
think
we'll
we'll
get
on
board
here
just
shortly.
P
Yes,
so
with
that,
madam
chair
council
members,
I
wanted
to
kind
of
incorporate
many
of
the
questions
regarding
our
current
state
of
public
safety
and
in
crime
in
the
city,
and
so
I've
kind
of
branched
it
off
into
these
three
buckets.
If
you
will
immediate
near
term
and
long
term,
so
I'll
try
to
touch
on
all
of
those
as
we
move
forward
in
this
public
safety
overview.
Next
slide.
Tech.
P
P
So
this
next
information,
we'll
we'll
focus
on
our
mpd
dashboard,
we're
looking
at
a
five-year
comparison.
Obviously
those
things
that
I'm
really
making
sure
that
we're
focused
on
obviously
homicides
gunshot,
wound,
victims,
assaults,
domestics
and
robberies,
and
so
next.
O
P
So,
where
we're
currently
at
today
in
our
city
of
minneapolis,
in
terms
of
homicides,
we're
at
49
and
and
this
is
as
of
august
18th,
and
so
as
you
look
at
this
slide,
and
I'm
always
mindful
to
bring
to
light
that
these
are
not
just
numbers.
Obviously,
these
are
loved
ones
who
are
no
longer
with
us
and-
and
these
are
people
who
people
are
mourning
for
their
their
family.
Members
are
grieving
for
them.
P
So
I
don't
want
us
to
get
just
too
focused
in
on
just
the
numbers
alone,
but
we
can
clearly
see
that
2020,
and
this
is
just
again
as
of
august
18th-
that
we
have
suffered.
48
excuse
me,
49
homicides
year
to
date,
and
you
can
see
over
the
5
year
span
that
that
number
has
increased
exponentially
next.
P
P
And
our
gunshot
wound
victims
over
the
course
of
the
past
five
years.
This
number
here
also
again
is
is
very
staggering.
P
Year-To-Date
here
in
2020,
or
certainly
for
august
7,
up
until
august
17th,
we
have
received
in
minneapolis
338
of
our
community
members
have
received
been
victims
of
gunshot,
wound,
violence,
and-
and
so
you
can
see,
even
as
of
last
year
in
2019,
we
ended
the
year
with
184,
which
is
still
unacceptable,
but
you
can
see
that
that
we
have
too
many
guns
out
in
our
streets
and
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
some
of
the
dynamics
that
that
we're
seeing
that's
taking
place
out
there
in
our
communities
but
gun
violence
is
certainly
a
concern,
and
it's
something
that
I
know
that
many
stakeholders
are
working
to
try
to
prevent
and
reduce
that
and
I'll
also
talk
about
the
important
work
in
collaboration
we've
had
with
some
of
our
other
local
federal
state
partners,
but
also
right
here
within
our
city
enterprise,
the
office
of
violence
prevention
next
slide.
P
P
Is
taking
into
account
domestic
aggravated
assaults
and
we're
at
568,
and
I
will
also
talk
a
little
bit
further
into
the
presentation
about
intimate
partner
violence
and
and
how
that
impacts.
Our
communities
as
well.
Next
slide.
P
So
what
I
will
do
now
for
our
madam
chair
to
our
council
members
is,
is
take
a
a
look
at
each
precinct
each
of
your
awards
in
terms
of
the
precincts
that
cover
your
awards
and
give
you
a
look
at
what
they're
experiencing
and
what
our
inspectors
are
doing
to
address
those
public
safety
issues.
P
So
first
slide
the
next
slide,
so
for
the
first
precinct,
what
inspector
peterson
and
his
teams
have
been
experiencing
as
it
relates
to
that
precinct,
vulnerable
community
members
and
those
experiencing
homelessness
have
been
targeted
and
have
been
victims
of
crime.
P
P
Fifth
through
eighth
street,
along
the
nicollet
corridor,
and
between
fifth
and
seventh
avenue,
hennepin
fifth
and
seventh
street
on
hennepin
avenue,
specter
peterson
seems
they're,
seeing
more
youth
and
older
adults
engaged
in
our
narcotic
stealing
and
also
the
night
time
how
it
transitions
from
day
to
night.
The
nighttime
activities
include:
robberies,
narcotics
and
shots
fired
next
slide.
P
Inspector
peterson
has
been
focused
on
utilizing
the
work
of
the
cert
team
to
combat
the
illegal
handguns
that
they've
seen
in
the
first
precinct
he's
also
coordinating
crime
production
crime
reduction
details
along
with
our
partners,
hennepin
county
sheriff's
office,
as
well
as
with
the
metro,
transit
police
department
and
our
other
law
enforcement
partners.
P
They've
been
teamed
up
with
our
with
through
the
late
night
entertainment
details
with
the
downtown
improvement
district,
also
continuing
to
do
some
good
work,
utilizing
cameras
for
crime
prevention
and
apprehension
of
suspects
and
have
made
some
some
significant
accountability.
Arrests
with
that,
and
continue
also
to
partner
with
the
office
of
violence
prevention
with
the
help
of
mad
dads
and
mothers,
love.
P
Second,
precinct
has
been
experiencing
robberies
the
businesses
aggravated
assaults
and
burglaries
of
dwellings.
How
that
transitions
in
terms
of
what
they're
seeing
in
terms
of
nighttime
includes
moped
and
motor
vehicles.
Excuse
me,
moped
and
motorcycle
thefts
along
with
street
racing
and
gun
violence.
P
Next
slide
inspector
loining's
team
over
at
the
second
precinct
are
addressing
it
through
robbery,
suppression,
details
focused
on
the
marcy
holmes
area,
also
utilizing
their
crime
prevention,
specialists
for
informational
notifications
to
neighbors
and
that
information
being
placed
on
the
website
next
door
have
utilized
the
community
service
officers,
the
distribution
of
vehicle
theft
prevention,
placards
second
precinct
squads
are
also
conducting
alley
patrols
and
the
precinct
personnel
attends
regular
neighborhood
meetings
and
distributing
crime
alerts
and
advisories.
P
Next
slide,
the
third
precinct
under
the
leadership
of
inspector
mcginty.
What
third
precinct
has
been
seeing
a
year
to
date
has
been
robberies:
carjackings,
gun,
violence
and,
and
while
those
experiencing
homelessness
are
no
way
at
all,
is
that
criminal.
P
But
there
has
been
some
unique
things
associated
with
some
of
the
encampments
that
took
place
or
that
are
taking
place
this
year
in
terms
of
whether
they've
been
preyed
upon
and
becoming
victims
of
crime,
and
some
of
the
other
things
that
have
spilled
out
into
those
neighborhoods
surrounding
where
some
of
those
encampments
were
were
at
next
slide.
P
Inspector
mcginty's
teams
have
utilized
coordinated
crime,
suppression,
details,
they've
been
utilizing
their
cert
and
bert
teams,
community
response
teams,
as
well
as
our
bicycle,
rapid
response
teams
to
address
some
of
the
issues
that
they've
been
experiencing
at
third
precinct.
Many
of
you
know,
madame
council
members.
P
The
u.s
attorney
here
has
started
a
along
with
in
partnership
with
the
minneapolis
police
department,
a
federal
task
force
to
do
both
not
only
utilize
intelligence
to
go
after
those
who
would
commit
harm
in
our
communities,
but
also
for
prosecution
purposes
and
teamed
up
with
our
mpd
weapons
team
for
assistance
in
going
after
those
who
are
also
bringing
guns
into
the
community
and
we've
been
utilizing
our
livability
in
terms
of
utilizing
our
homeless
outreach
teams
to
help
those
who
are
experiencing
homelessness
and
to
also
provide
them.
P
The
fourth
precinct
has
been
experiencing
this
year,
issues
revolving
around
group
violence.
P
Next,
one
inspector
pulphus
has
been
utilizing
our
get
teams
to
do
details
also
utilizing
the
fourth
precinct
cert
team
to
combat
and
reduce
and
prevent
some
of
this
violence,
as
well
as
our
partners
with
office
of
violence
prevention.
Our
group
violence,
intervention,
team,
gvi,
we've
also
been
leaning
on
the
help
of
our
federal
task
force,
as
well
as
again
partnering
with
the
office
of
violence,
prevention
and
utilizing
the
skills
of
mad
dads
and
mother's
love.
P
Fifth
precinct
under
the
leadership
of
inspector
huffman
fifth
precinct,
has
experienced
the
robberies,
burglaries,
youth
involved
in
criminal
activity
and
the
fifth
precinct
they've
seen
a
shift,
certainly
with
the
covid
and
many
of
the
the
bars
and
restaurants
that
were
typically
operating
in
uptown.
What
they've
seen
in
terms
of
the
night
time
has
been
some
gun,
violence,
assaults
and
drag
racing.
P
Inspector
huffman
is
organizing
coordinated
detail.
Patrols
has
been
working
with
the
uptown
association
and
nightlife
business
owners
have
been
doing
combined
details
with
other
precincts
as
well
in
specialty
units
and
have
also
utilized
the
help
from
office
of
violence
prevention
with
mad
dads
and
mother's
love.
P
Madam
chair
council
members
have
asked
about
a
snapshot
in
time
where
our
staffing
in
terms
of
patrol
staffing,
looks
like
right
now
and,
as
you
can
see
from
this
slide,
the
numbers
here
with
the
inspectors
listed,
the
number
of
inspectors
listed
lieutenants,
sergeants
and
officers,
and
again
I
want
to
just
emphasize
this-
is
just
for
our
sworn
patrol
staff
next
slide.
P
So
what
does
that
break
down?
Look
like
to
date
this
year
for
our
five
precincts
and
again
there's
there's.
Never.
There
really
has
never
been
a
where
we
give
each
five
of
the
five
precincts,
the
exact
same
amount
of
personnel,
and
so
you
can
see
from
this
map
here,
though,
as
of
2020
this
month.
What
that
percentage
of
staffing
looks
like
for
each
precinct.
P
P
There
are
many
questions
surrounding
response
times
and
because
there
is
a
lot
of
information.
Madam
chair
council
members,
it
goes
into
many
of
the
questions
that
were
raised.
Regarding
that,
I
think
it
would
be
preferred
to
really
go
in
depth
on
that.
Perhaps
during
the
study
session
that
was
proposed
for
september
15th.
P
So
for
the
near
term,
madam
chair
council
members,
I
will
be
looking
at
working
with
our
leadership
teams
and
reevaluating
our
successful
crime
strategies,
successful
crime
reduction
and
prevention
strategies
as
we're
as
we're
moving
along
here
for
the
near
term.
P
Also,
it's
very
important
for
myself
and
our
teams
to
receive
that
community
input
that
continues
to
be
very
vital
in
shaping
what
our
response
can
look
like
and
what
are
the
best
needs
that
the
community
would
like
to
see
from
us
in
that
regard
and
then,
of
course,
continuing
to
build
upon
our
relationship
with
the
office
of
violence,
prevention.
P
P
P
Madam
chair,
I
know
that
councilmember
cunningham,
for
example,
has
really
done
so
much
in
terms
of
of
bringing
to
light
the
impacts
associated
with
intimate
partner
violence
and
and
how
that
really
really
can
play
out
in
terms
of
what
ultimately
looks
like
public
safety,
but
also
how
that
can
harm
our
communities,
and
we
have
to
address
that.
P
He's
been
a
a
stalwart
in
making
sure
that
we're
addressing
that
also
from
the
youth
and
when
children
are
experiencing
that
from
a
young
age
if
it's
not
addressed
with,
and
if,
if
the
tools
and
resources
are
not
addressed
right
away,
that
can
carry
out
into
folks
going
down
a
path
that
we
don't
want
to
see.
And
so
I
appreciate
his
efforts
in
that.
P
Also
group
violence,
intervention
gvi,
has
played
a
a
a
very
important
role
in
how
we're
not
just
using
the
enforcement
piece
to
how
violence
is
being
played
out
in
our
communities,
but
utilizing
folks
who've
had
experience
in
working
with
young
people,
particularly
young
men,
who've,
been
involved
in
group
violence
being
able
to
offer
up
resources
for
them
whether
they
they're
trying
to
change
their
life
around
get
out
of
that
life,
whether
it's
a
getting
education.
P
A
ged
housing
is
so
very
important
in
a
lot
of
these
discussions,
mental
health
services
and
employment
jobs,
and
so
it's
a
two-tier
track.
We
have
to
make
sure
that
we
are
holding
our
folks
accountable.
P
Keeping
our
community
safe,
but
gvi
has
g
and
gvi
has
also
played
a
significant
role
in
in
trying
to
help
reduce
some
of
the
violence
here
that
we've
seen
in
our
communities
we've
also
utilized
ovp
in
terms
of
of
using
some
of
the
the
wonderful
groups,
such
as
mad
dads
mothers,
love
to
help
de-escalate
incidents
of
community
and
rest
and
we've
utilized
them
throughout
our
city,
and
we
continue
to
be
thankful
for
their
work
in
that
and
then
also
director,
cotton
under
all
of
that
umbrella.
P
She
has
a
phenomenal
job
and
and
also
helping
to
form
spaces
for
good
community
engagement.
How
we
can
work
together,
build
relationships,
build
that
trust,
and
so
that's
been
very
important.
P
P
We
need
to
have
as
much
of
a
hands-off
approach
to
that,
provide
that,
under
the
the
great
leadership
of
our
director
fadi
fahil,
and
make
sure
that
his
teams
get
that
and
that
they're
working
constantly
on
providing
good
products,
good
user-friendly
products
for
our
community
members
and
our
council
members
to
make
sure
that
they
have
in
all
of
you,
have
that
real-time
data
to
help
guide
and
inform
your
decisions
as
it
relates
to
public
safety
as
well,
and
so
we're
very
thankful
for
our
partnership
with
the
city.
I
t.
P
So
long
term,
current
pre-planning
safety
measures
are
are
taking
place
right
now,
with
our
leadership
teams
into
2021.
P
Certainly
we're
looking
at
trends
and
and
dynamics
that
we're
experiencing
through
2020
and
and
really
trying
to
see
how
we
can
do
a
good
job
in
terms
of
reduction
prevention
of
some
of
these
crimes
that
we're
seeing
this
year
and
so
that
we
can
look
towards
next
year
and
do
all
we
can
to
reduce
what
we've
seen
the
numbers
that
we've
seen
over
the
course
of
the
past
year.
P
We've
been
doing
that
over
the
course
of
the
last
year
and
we'll
continue
to
to
keep
doing
that
partnering
with
it
to
create
and
expand
our
transparent
and
user-friendly
community
dashboards,
and
that
will
continue
to
be
ongoing
and
as
well
continuing
to
partner
with
ovp
to
support
alternatives
to
policing
that
fosters
community
safety,
and
I'm
very
appreciative
of
the
work
that
director
cotton
has
been
doing
and
leading
in
that
charge.
P
Madam
chair,
as
I,
as
I
mentioned,
wanted
to
respectfully
offer
up
a
study
session
next
month.
If
madam
chair
and
the
council
sees
that
available,
but
I
wanted
to
give
a
snapshot
of
kind
of
where
the
city
is
in
terms
of
public
safety,
so
with
that
I'll
yield
my
time.
B
Thank
you
and
I
sent
a
note
to
the
clerk.
I'm
sure
we'd
all
be
very
interested
in
hosting
a
longer
deep
dive
into
staffing
levels
and
other
related
items,
so
I'll
just
confirm
that
date
with
a
clerk
as
we're
working
to
adjust
our
structure.
As
I
think
everyone
knows,
I've
been
talking
about
that
for
a
while
to
better
organize
our
work.
So
I
think
that
that
date
is
correct.
B
That
second
tuesday
september
15th
would
be
a
time
that
we're
looking
to
hold
for
study
sessions
in
the
in
the
structure
that
we'll
be
in
in
the
in
september.
B
So
I'm
seeing
some
council
members
jump
in
with
questions
or
comments.
Councilmember
gordon.
E
E
I
get
it
sorry
about
that
thanks.
I
have
just
a
really
specific
question,
and
so
there
was
a
little
request
at
the
last
council
meeting
we're
trying
to
look
in
into
how
we're
doing
business,
licensing
and
we've
been
looking
at
business
conditions
that
are
requiring
off-duty
officers
to
work
there
and
we're
trying
to
get
more
flexible
on
that.
And
then
we
heard
from
business
licensing
that
they're
not
really
sure
about
how
many
officers
are
being
hired
and
working
off
duty
for
other
clubs
out
there
as
well,
and
we
were
interested
in
finding
that
number.
E
If
we
could-
and
I
don't
know
how,
if
you
can
access
that
or
not,
and
I'm
sure
a
written
report
would
be
really
helpful
if
you
could
help
us
figure
out
who
might
be
tracking
that
in
the
department
or
you
could
bring
that
back
at
some
future
time.
But
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
it.
I
think
I
can
send
you
the
formal
language
if
you
haven't
seen
it,
but
it
was
a
request
and
a
vote.
We
took
last
council
meeting.
P
Madam
chair
councilman,
gordon
to
your
question.
P
That
was
actually
that
question
was
raised
during
our
mpd
off-duty
task
force,
which
both
councilmembers,
palmisano
and
fletcher
are
part
of
it,
and
that
exact
question
in
terms
of
trying
to
drill
down
in
terms
of
of
the
actual
number
of
officers
at
any
given
time
during
the
year
are
at
some
of
these
businesses
working
in
that
capacity,
and
so
I
know
that
is
something
that
we're
trying
to
get
some
answers
for
as
well
through
the
off-duty
task
force
so
hoping
to
get
that
answer.
For
you.
E
Do
officers
have
to
inform
you
when
they're
working
off
duties
somewhere.
P
Madam
chair,
to
councilman
gordon
yes,
they
do.
There
is
a
protocol
in
place
to
do
that.
Some
of
the
nuance
to
that
has
been
and
just
to
simplify
it.
Some
of
the
nuance
has
been
that
if,
if
I'm
the
coordinating
officer
in
charge
of
a
a
large
event,
I
may
notify
obviously
that
I'm
going
to
be
working
that
and
there
may
be
10
officers
working
that
and
how
those
officers-
those
10
officers
under
my
direction.
P
So
there's
just
how
that's
recorded
so
there's
some
there's
some
nuances
to
that
in
terms
of
how
we
have
to
capture
that.
But
but
so
that's
what
exactly
the
question
you
raise.
The
the
off-duty
task
force
that
we're
going
to
look
in
to
try
to
capture
that.
E
Can
officers
go
out
and
make
sight
if
I
could
can
officers
just
go
out
and
make
side
deals
on
their
own?
We
read
in
the
paper
recently
about
officer
who
was
getting
paid
in
cash
for
providing
off-duty
services,
or
do
they
have
to
work
through
somebody
in
the
department
to
get
an
off-duty
job?
Let's
say
at
a
nightclub.
P
Madam
chair
to
councilmember
gordon
so
an
an
officer,
an
individual
employee,
an
individual
officer,
certainly
could
arrange
a
security
contract
with
a
business
licensed
business.
I
think
that
is
key.
That
business
still
would
have
to
be
licensed
through
the
city.
That
officer
once
that
arrangement
was
made,
would
still
have
to
obviously
do
those
same
protocols
of
notifying
when
he
or
she
is,
is
working
on
the
site
and
and
again
those
are.
P
Those
are
also
questions
that
the
off-duty
task
force
with
the
leadership
of
customers,
homicidal
and
fletcher,
are
heading.
Those
are
some
of
the
same
things
that
we're
we're
discussing,
but
yes
to
your
question,
they
could
certainly
do
that.
E
Thank
you,
and
maybe
before
we're
done,
we
can
get
some
indication
made
from
the
council
members
when
they
think
that
we
work
will
be
ready
to
report
out
to
the
council
or
the
city
to
thank
you,
madam
president,
I'll
try
and
be
quiet
now.
B
No
thank
you
council
member
for
those
questions,
and
I
know
there
was
also
a
news
report
about
that
work
group,
but
I
had
understood
it
was
still
meeting.
So
maybe
we
could
pause
and
just
get
an
update
on
that
task
force
and
an
answer
to
councilmember
gordon's
question
as
best
we
know
about
when
the
outcomes
might
be
ready
from
that
task.
Force
related
to
off-duty
work,
either
from
you,
chief
or
from
councilman
palmisano
and
fletcher.
P
Madam
chair,
I
I
saw
that
I
wanted
to
be
respectful
of
councilmember
palmisano.
She
wanted
to
make
a
comment
regarding
that.
N
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
You
know
there
are
some
things
omitted
from
what
people
may
have
read
in
the
paper
this
morning.
The
first
is,
we
absolutely
are
still
meeting
we
had
a
meeting,
even
I
think
it
was
last
week
that
was
the
off-duty
work
group
meeting
council
member
kano's
office
is
also
part
of
those
conversations,
but
importantly,
it's
not
that
we
intentionally
hit
pause
on
progress
through
this
work
group.
N
Last
week
we
spoke
about
how
others
have
changed
policies
and
what
that
has
meant
and
how
they
were
able
to
bring
about
changes
and
for
what
reasons
to
off-duty
work
in
their
own
jurisdictions.
One
of
the
challenges
that
really
we
kicked
off
this
work.
We
had
an
aggressive
time
schedule.
N
We
really
wanted
to
have
information
back
recommendations
back
by
june
of
this
year
and
then,
with
the
covid
pandemic,
a
lot
of
the
people
that
we
would
be
seeking
to
speak
to
meaning
nightclub
owners,
people
that
use
downtown
off-duty
officers
were
trying
to
save
their
own
shirts
right.
N
These
clears
virtually
zero
off-duty
work
going
on,
except
for
security
of
vacant
buildings,
essentially,
and
so
it
was
just
so
outside
the
norm,
and
it
just
so
was
a
different
kind
of
operation
than
normal
that
we
had
to
give
people
that
space
to
go
and
figure
out
the
more
urgent
thing
in
front
of
them.
N
We
also
wanted
to
survey
police
officers
who
were
users
of
off
duty
and
who
did
not
choose
to
do
off-duty
work
about
some
of
their
ideas
and
thoughts
on
how
some
changes
would
go
and
again,
as
I
think,
you've
seen
on
previous
slides
and
from
the
chief,
our
whole
city
and
the
needs
of
our
police
force
have
also
taken
a
significantly
different
turn.
N
First
in
response
to
emergency
one,
the
global
pandemic,
and
then
second,
the
civil
unrest
following
the
murder
of
george
floyd,
has
just
created
an
inability
to
really
be
able
to
focus
on
this.
One
of
the
things
that
I
do
want
to
share
that
we
we
discussed
and
people-
I
think
it's
fair
to
say
there
was
consensus
last
week-
was
that,
given
that
people
have
that
off
duty
is
way
way
down
from
what
is
typical
at
this
time
of
year.
We
do.
N
We
do
want
to
be
able
to
put
recommendations
in
place
before
we
go
back
to.
Let's
just
say
we
are
going
back
to
a
normal
where
downtown
nightclubs
and
that
are
open
at
full
capacity
again
and
special
events,
and
that
type
of
thing
we
want
to
make
these
changes
so
that,
as
things
open
up
again
and
we
get
to
enjoy
life
in
person
together
again
that
we
have
these
other
recommendations
in
place.
I
don't
know
when
that
will
be.
P
Madam
chair,
I
I
apologize.
I
failed
to
mention
the
leadership
of
councilmember.
Piccano
who's
also
been
a
part
of
the
off
duty
work
group
from
the
beginning.
B
A
Thank
you,
council
president.
I've
got
a
couple
of
questions.
First,
chief,
you
know
thanks
for
being
here,
I
really
appreciate
the
offer
for
the
study
session
really
look
forward
to
getting
more
of
our
questions
answered
there.
The
first
question
I
have
you
mentioned
that
the
the
crt
teams
were
helping
out
in
a
number
of
precincts,
and
I
was
told
by
by
the
inspector
and
by
the
crime
prevention
specialist,
that
we
do
not
have
a
crt
team
operating
in
the
third
person.
P
So,
madam
chair
councilmember
schroeder,
my
understanding
is
at
least
to
to
date.
Third
precinct
short
is
still
active,
and
so,
if
that
has
changed,
I
will
check
with
inspector
mcginty
and
and
then
your
second
question,
I'm
sorry.
A
Sure
well,
end
of
follow-up.
I
have
an
email
from
last
week
and
this
was
an
ongoing
saga
of
trying
to
get
someone
to
help
out
with
with
kind
of
a
problem
property
was
going
on.
I
was
retold
repeatedly
that
the
the
third
did
not
have
a
crt
team
to
help
out
so,
but
on
my
and
I've
looked
forward
to
hearing
more
about
that.
A
My
next
question
you
know
I
just
want
to
have
a
little
bit
more
clearly
what
successful
crime
reduction
strategies
are
and
because
council
does
not
have
oversight
of
you.
It
is
just
up
to
the
mayor
and
yourself.
Could
you
also
include
what
metrics
you
and
the
mayor
are
looking
at
to
to
come
to
that
conclusion?.
P
Madam
chair
to
customers
schrader,
so
some
of
the
successful
crime
strategies
that
we
will
look
at
and
some
of
the
things
that
we've
had
in
place.
For
example,
our
weapons
team
there's
been
many
conversations
by
many
community
stakeholders,
including
some
of
the
council
members
oftentimes.
Looking
at
how
do
we?
How
do
we
reduce
the
gun,
violence
in
our
communities?
P
And
how
do
we
also
tend
to
go
after
those
folks
that
are
bringing
those
guns
in
through
the
work
of
our
our
weapons
teams?
Our
git
teams?
We
recently
our
weapons
team
made
a
significant
arrest
of
a
individual
who's
selling
guns
out
of
his
trunk
of
his
car.
Very
you
know:
new
high
caliber
type
of
weapons
teaming
up
with
the
u.s
attorney's
task
force
and
being
able
to
look
at
federally
charging
that
individual.
P
So
so
those
are
those
are
measured
in
successful
crime
reduction
strategies
by
by
by
utilizing
force
multipliers.
In
that
sense,
so
that's
one
way
of
doing
it.
The
other
successful
strategies.
Quite
frankly,
now
this
has
been
a
year
where
we've
seen
some
certainly
some
increases
in
the
gun
violence,
but
I
will
say
that
the
work
over
the
past
few
years
of
the
gvi
teams
that
has
been
helpful.
P
We
have
seen,
for
example,
last
year
we
we
were
seeing
that
it
was
really
taking
hold
of
getting
out
to
those
groups
and
and
having
those
call-in
sessions
through
director
cotton's
teams
through
her
folks
on
the
ground
who
are
working
with
those
folks
to
reduce
some
of
the
group
violence.
And
so
so
those
are
just
a
couple
of
the
ways
that
have
been
successful,
that
we
want
to
continue
to
measure
that
success,
but
make
no
doubt
about
it.
P
F
F
And
thank
you
chief.
F
For
this
presentation
today,
I
just
wanted
to
to
really
you
know,
offer
up
my
support
to
you
personally,
as
as
a
leader
in
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
and
the
leader
of
the
minneapolis
police
department,
and
just
acknowledge
the
ignore
extraordinary
stress
that
that
you
are
under
and
and
the
department
as
a
whole
and
and
really
trying
to
help
keep
minneapolis
a
safe
community
in
these
really
extraordinary
times.
So
know
that
you
have
my
support
and
want
to
lift
up
your
leadership.
F
I
I
do
want
to
just
please.
F
Bring
more
attention
to
this
intersection
at
38th
and
chicago,
we
have
continued
to
experience,
gun
violence,
robberies,
as
you
noted
in
your
report
of
the
third
precinct,
carjacking,
etc,
and
you
know,
with
the
third
briefing
gone
and
and
people
working
out
at
the
convention
center
now
and
hopefully
in
in
this
more
seeming,
somewhat
suitable.
Coming
up
that
that
we
continue
to
focus
efforts
at
38th
and
chicago
and
really
help
to
ease
some
of
the
tensions
that
are
happening
there
and
also
one
of
the
just
asked
you
know
the
cps.
F
I
think
councilmember
trader
talked
about
this
a
little
bit
but
they're.
We
don't
have
a
a
cps
position
in
the
sort
of
western
part
of
the
board,
a
southwest
portion
of
the
third
precinct,
and
do
you
know
if
there's
any
plans.
J
F
P
Madam
chair
council,
vice
president
jenkins.
First
of
all,
thank
you
for
your
your
words
of
support.
I
also
wanna
say
that
thank
you
to
you
and
both
when
it
comes
to
38th
in
chicago
you
and
both
councilmember
connor.
I
know
have
been
working
tirelessly
to
to
not
only
try
to
address
the
concerns
of
your
constituents
and
in
that
central
neighborhood
area,
but
but
also
really
your
your
questions.
P
Your
concerns,
your
your
asks
of
of
certainly
me
as
chief
to
how
we
can
continue
to
keep
that
that
neighborhood
safe,
has
been
very
important
in
helping
me
inform
how
we
best
go
about
that.
I
do
know
that
for
38th
in
chicago
inspector
mcginty
and
his
teams
continue
to
meet
with
the
community
the
neighbors
over
there.
I
know
that
there
there
were
concerns
of
neighbors
just
regarding
whether
there
was
response
times
or
or
feeling,
though
they're
not
seeing
any
police
over
there.
P
I
was
happy
that
during
the
last,
when
you
hosted
council,
vice
president
jenkins,
your
your
community
town
hall,
specific
to
central
neighborhood,
you
know
officers
are
getting
in
there
they're,
seeing
them
the
community
seeing
them,
and
we
want
to
continue
to
make
sure
we
do
that.
We
want
to
be
seen
and
be
in
there
and
and
and
really
continue
to
work
hard
for
our
community,
the
crime
prevention
specialist
that
you
that
you
had
mentioned.
P
My
understanding
is
that
that
position-
and
I
believe
we
even
went
through
the
hiring
process
for
that
person,
but
my
understanding
is
due
to
the
hiring
freeze
that
that
had
been
kind
of
put
on
hold
for
now,
and
so
I
believe
that
inspector
mcginty
is
is
probably
utilizing
the
wonderful
cps
sean
tillman
to
kind
of
take
on
some
of
that.
But
I
I
do
know
that
that
position
was
in
the
process,
but
I
believe
because
of
the
budgetary
matters
with
hiring
freeze,
it's
been
placed
on
hold.
M
M
I
fully
acknowledge
the
the
difficult
moment
that
we
are
in
with
our
city,
employees
and
the
the
uncertain
future
that
some
folks
might
feel
because
of
the
conversations
we're
having
as
a
city,
and
I
I
you
know,
I
acknowledge
that
our
officers
are
are
human
beings
and
that
they
are
impacted
by
the
things
they
read
on
in
the
newspapers
and
the
things
I
hear
on
on
television
and
the
comments
that
we
make
here.
M
So
I
know
that
the
work
of
our
police
department
is
not
your
work
alone
and
that
there
are
a
lot
of
dynamics
at
play,
and
so
I
I
think
a
lot
about
about
that
difficulty
and-
and
I
know
that
it's
not
easy
to
to
keep
the
the
train
running
on
time
when
there's
so
much
turbulence
happening
throughout
the
community.
In
so
many
different
ways.
M
And
frankly,
that's
you
know,
that's
one
of
the
primary
reasons
why
I
supported
having
our
third
precinct
personnel
removed
from
the
from
the
headquarters,
because
I
I
you
know
it
was.
It
was
such
a
difficult
time
for
so
many
people,
and-
and
I
wanted
to
be
close
to
my
family-
and
I
would
only
imagine,
officers
would
also
want
to
be
close
to
their
family
during
a
time
of
loss
and
a
time
of
grieving,
such
as
what
we
experienced
with
the
death
of
mr
floyd.
M
So
I
I
also
want
to
express
my
support
to
you.
I've
gone
on
public
media
many
times
to
express
that.
I
believe
you
are
the
best
chief
of
police
in
the
country,
and
I
know
that
council,
member
paul
masano
and
I
many
times
have
been
worried
that
you
would
be
recruited
away
somewhere,
but
we
we
hope
that
you
can.
M
You
know,
of
course,
stay
stay
here
with
us
in
this
big
moment
of
transition.
Where
leaders
like
yourself,
I
think,
have
a
very
a
very
good
opportunity
to
really
bridge
a
lot
of
conversations
and
and
really
bring
forward
a
a
new
system
of
public
safety,
and-
and
I
don't-
I
don't
think
that
you
are
by
any
means
in
my
mind's
eye
excluded
from
from
that
work.
You
know,
as
as
it
unfolds
for
the
next
days
and
weeks
and
months
and
years
to
come.
M
I
I
also
want
to
echo
council
member
jenkins's
question
about
the
the
crime
prevention
specialist,
that
that
is
a
position
that
I
know
in
the
third
precinct
south
of
lake
street.
We
used
to
have
karen
notch,
serve
as
a
crime
prevention
specialist
and
during
the
the
height
of
the
of
the
needs
around
the
encampments
at
powderhorn
and
throughout
south
minneapolis.
M
You
know
it
would
have
been
nice
to
have
had
a
crime
prevention
specialist
to
lean
on,
and
I
know
that
the
cali
thiego
who's
the
crime
prevention
specialist
for
north
lake
in
the
third
precinct
she
carries
a
very,
very
busy
portfolio
and-
and-
and
really
this
is
the
time
where
I
believe
community
members
are-
are
doubling
down
on
their
requests.
To
those
specific
people,
precisely
because
they're,
not
officers,
and
so
it
feels
a
little
bit
more
safe,
it
feels
a
little
bit
more.
M
You
know
politically
correct
to
kind
of
reach
out
to
those
folks,
and
so
I
would
encourage
you,
if
at
all
possible,
to
to
seek
that
waiver
and
to
try
to
get
those
position
that
position
filled.
I
don't
know
if
it's
the
same
one,
the
one
that
councilmember
jenkins
mentioned
in
her
award-
it's
probably
different
ones,
because
I
think
we
have
different
precincts.
So
I
know
for
us
that
the
crime
prevention
specialist
in
them
in
the
south
of
lake
area
or
sector
used
to
be
cara
notch.
M
She
was
very,
very
busy,
of
course,
and
and
now
that
she's
gone,
I
think
people
would
really
welcome
that
that
voice
back
into
into
the
community
and
and
lastly,
I'll
just
offer
myself
as
a
as
a
sounding
board
to
you
and
as
a
source
of
you
know
not
not
per
se
oversight.
M
You
know,
because
of
the
way
that
the
charter
is
written,
but
certainly
collegiality
and
and
respect
from
one
leader
to
another,
especially
as
leaders
of
color.
I
think
that
you
know
the
expectations
for
us
are
are
are
double
in
in
what
we're
supposed
to
do
in
this
moment
with
our
communities
who
who
most
of
them,
who
are
negatively
impacted
by
acts
of
police
involved,
shootings
and
brutality,
are
people
of
color.
M
So
you
know
I.
I
hope
that
over
the
years
you've
you've
seen
my
work
with
you
in
integrity
and
respect
and
that
hasn't
changed.
Of
course,
what
has
changed
is
that
you
know
I'm.
M
My
ward
is
now
literally
breaking,
and
so
my
time
is
is
very,
very
limited,
so
I
haven't
been
able
to
be,
as
involved
with
with
our
mpd
leadership,
as
I
used
to
be,
and
and
with
our
officers
as
I
used
to
be,
we
used
to
do
door
knocks
in
the
neighborhood
and
things
like
that,
and
and
I'm
not
I'm.
I
don't
think
we
need
to
stop
that
kind
of
work.
M
M
Because
we
all
know
that
you
know
we're
going
to
be
in
this
moment
of
transition
for
a
while
and
and
certainly
we
we
don't
want
to
create
further
divisions
by
distancing
ourselves
from
one
another
instead
just
seeking
to
better
understand
each
other's
reality,
and
so
I
can
serve
as
a
liaison
to
you
to
connect
with
folks
on
the
on
the
ground
here
in
my
ward,
who
are
who
are
interested
in
getting
to
know
our
officers
from
a
very
human
perspective
who
are
interested
in
asking
questions
and
seeking
to
understand
and
expressing
their
needs
in
a
more
clear
way.
M
So
I
just
I
just
wanted
to
say
you
know,
I
acknowledge
the
the
time
that
we're
in
and-
and
I
acknowledge
that
this
isn't,
for
you
alone,
to
lift
and
and
do
and
that
I'm
signing
up
for
the
work
and
that
we
would
love
our
crime
prevention
specialist
back.
So
thank
you.
P
Madam
chair
customer
mcconnell,
so
thank
you
for
your
very
supportive
words
as
as
your
chief,
I
you
know,
I'm
I'm
so
blessed
to
have
so
many
dedicated
sworn
and
civilian
men
and
women
who
come
to
work
each
and
every
day
to
try
to
do
their
best
to
uplift,
our
our
city
and
and
as
many
of
your
team
members
have.
P
They
too
have
as
well
have
been
working
under
some
very
unprecedented
situations
and
circumstances,
and-
and
they
also
I
I
have
to
be
mindful
too,
that
their
families
come
to
work
with
them
every
day
and
and
so
I'm
I'm
so
grateful
for
for
their
continued
service.
I
know
that
there's
been
they've
been
placed
with
so
much
stress
uncertainty,
and
yet
they
still
continue
to
show
I'm
very
mindful,
too,
of
the
the
the
letters
of
thanks
and
and
emails
that
many
in
your
your.
P
Your
wards
have
expressed
for
our
our
men
and
women
who
continue
to
show
up
and
and
provide
that
service
and
try
to
keep
them
safe
and,
and
so
we
need
but
we're
you
know
in
order
for
us
to
to
to
move
forward
and
to
to
to
have
those
important
conversations
to
to
talk
about
the
pain
and
to
more
importantly,
to
look
at
ways
of
healing
and
that
pathway
forward.
P
It
is
going
to
take
all
of
us
and
and
we're
if
we're
going
to
ever
achieve
that,
but
it's
going
to
take
all
of
us
together
to
work
towards
that,
and
so
I
appreciate
customer
control,
your
words
and
wanting
to
be
in
that
space,
and
I
know
that
you
have.
I
know
that
all
the
council
members
want
that
as
well,
and
so
we'll
continue
to
to
be
there
to
to
show
up
and
be
seen
and
to
do
that.
P
As
far
as
your
your
messages
or
your
comments
regarding
the
crime,
prevention,
specialist,
you're
right,
there's
more
than
just
the
one
position
that
the
council
vice
president
mentioned
and
again
I
know
there's
some
budgetary
implications
to
that.
But
I
will,
after
our
presentation
I
will
check
in
terms
of
where
that
is
in
terms
of
the
hiring
waiver
in
that
process.
But
but
thank
you
again.
B
Thank
you.
So
I
I
apologize
to
councilmember
cunningham,
who
I
skipped
in
the
queue
so
councilmember
cunningham
is
next.
D
Thank
you,
madam
president,
and
thank
you
chief
for
being
here
for
being
a
part
of
the
conversation
with
the
council.
It
means
a
lot
to
have
you
here.
There
are
a
couple
of
things
I
first
want
to
name
before
I
dig
into
some
questions.
The
first
is
that
I
too
want
to
name
my
support.
D
You
know
this,
but
there
is
a
narrative
out
there
that
we,
as
a
city
council,
don't
support
you,
and
I
hope
that
you
know
that
that
is
not
true
and
that
I
respect
and
support
you
as
a
leader.
I
think
you're
a
critical
leader
during
this
time,
and
I
think
that
we
can
also
hold
multiple
truths
like
it's
possible
to
support
you
and
also
recognize
that
you
alone
cannot
enact
major
structural
changes
in
a
system
that
you
inherited
without
the
kind
of
broader
support
that
you
need
to
have.
D
And
in
fact
I
think,
those
two
things
really
go
hand
in
hand,
because
we
really
cannot
reimagine
public
safety
and
operationalize
that
with
for,
in
particular,
regards
to
policing,
unless
we're
supporting
your
leadership
to
do
so
and
your
vision-
and
so
I
just
want
to
to
first
name
that
I
also
want
to
give
a
special
shout
out
to
some
of
the
folks
from
the
fourth
precinct
that
I've
been
working
with.
D
We
we've
been
having
a
very
significant
challenge
on
the
3200
block
of
logan
and
lowry,
where
we
have
had
pretty
much
layer
upon
layer
of
social
issues
in
a
microcosm
on
this
block
where
we're
having
shootings
every
single
night-
and
you
know
as
many
folks
in
our
community
know
it's
not
only
that
block.
So
there's
a
there's,
a
lot
of
challenges
that
we're
having.
But
this
is
a
particularly
concentrated
area.
D
We
are
so
I've
been
organizing
a
collaborative
effort
to
be
able
to
address
the
the
challenges
because
we
have
sex
trafficking
happening
both
of
women
and
girls.
We
have
drug
dealing,
we
have
gun
violence.
We
have
mental
health
issues
like
drug
addiction,
like
substance
abuse
disorder.
Excuse
me,
like
all
of
that
on
one
block,
extremely
concentrated,
and
so
so
sergeant
alice
white
has
been
amazing
to
work
with.
I
deeply
appreciate
her
and
her
leadership
as
well
as
lieutenant
barnes.
D
Both
of
them
have
been
consistently
showing
up
and
being
100
involved,
one
of
the
folks.
Actually,
we
just
had
an
arrest
of
one
of
the
ongoing
very
violent
drug
dealers
on
that
block
and
who
was
wanted
for
a
murder
on
in
another
part
of
the
war.
So
so
I'm
very
grateful
for
the
leadership
and
the
role
that
enforcement
plays
in
this
collaborative
effort.
D
So
so
I
just
want
to
want
to
name
again
that
this
is
a
comprehensive
approach
and
that
law
enforcement
plays
in
order
plays
a
role
within
that.
So,
to
get
to
my
my
question,
so
I
just
want
to
name
those
high
level
truths
and
realities
and
express
my
gratitude
to
both
you
and
the
the
folks
over
at
the
fourth
precinct.
So
I
want
to
hear
from
your
criminological
perspective,
your
expertise.
D
P
Increase
chair,
councilmember
cunningham,
first
and
foremost,
thank
you
again
for
your
supportive
words
and
also
acknowledging
the
the
wonderful
leadership
folks
over
there
at
the
fourth
precinct,
and
I
couldn't
agree
with
you
more
on
lieutenant
barnes
and
sergeant
white
under
the
leadership
of
inspector
polphis
and
and
so
I
appreciate
you
mentioning
them
as
well.
That
is
a
your
your
question
as
to
what
what
is
different,
that
we're
seeing
this
year
in
2020
with
the
number
of
the
increase
in
gun
violence.
P
Specifically
as
opposed
to
previous
years,
I
will
say
that
the
very
same
question
that
you've
posed
many
of
the
major
city
chiefs
around
the
country
we've
been
asking
that
same
question.
It
is
very
significant
that
it
is
very
different
this
year.
I
think
some
of
the
things
that
we've
talked
about
that
could
be
factors
in
this
one.
P
It's
it's
clear
that
I
think
most
of
the
major
cities
across
the
country
we
have
been
experiencing,
that
gun
violence
the
tale
of
last
year,
and
I
think,
when
you
add
on
certain
things
of
the
pandemic,
that
that
I
think,
plays
a
role
into
it.
P
We
also
know
that
when
our
country
shut
down
its
borders
during
covet
19
the
borders
to
the
south
of
mexico
and
the
borders
to
the
north,
I
think
that
that
interrupted
some
of
the
narcotics
that
we
that
were
easily
flowing,
and
so
I
think
that
there's
probably
been
to
some
extent
some
some
that
has
agitated
the
market
in
our
country,
and
I
think
we
saw
some
or
I
think
we're
seeing
some
of
that
that
has
played
out
in
cities
across
the
country,
including
minneapolis.
P
P
Violence
has
gone
up
in
some
of
these
major
cities
and
and
I've
heard
sociologists
talk
about
particularly
young
people,
experiencing
pain,
feeling,
hopelessness,
anger,
resentment,
all
of
those
sorts
of
things
that
that
you
know
when
you
mix
in
guns
and
freely
accessible
weapons
in
our
communities
that
can
have
a
tendency
to
play
out
in
in
things
that
harm
our
communities
and
the
economy.
P
P
I
think
that
has
added
to
that
and
we're
also
in
the
midst
of
summer,
which
we
typically
in
cities
across
this
country,
see
an
increase
in
crime.
So
that
is
a
very
powerful
question.
Many
of
my
chief
colleagues
across
this
country
are
trying
to
get
a
hand
on
that,
but
one
thing
is
for
sure:
2020
has
been
very
different
in
the
sense
that
we've
seen
these
spikes,
and
so
even
talking
to
individuals
who
have
kind
of
been
in
the
life
have
also
said.
This
is
a
different
year.
P
It's
a
different
time,
and
so
so
I
think
it's
a
combination
of
all
those
things
and-
and
you
know
us
having
to
bring
in
federal
task
force
and
we're
not
the
only
city
across
the
country.
P
That's
done
that
and
so
we're
just
trying
to
do,
and
I'm
trying
to
make
sure
I'm
working
with
our
folks
as
the
best
we
can
to
utilize
and
leverage
all
those
resources
to
prevent,
reduce
as
councilmember
schroeder's
question
was
about
what
are
some
of
those
successful
strategies
holding
on
to
those
that
we're
seeing
that's
work,
reevaluating,
the
ones
that
aren't
and
and
seeing
how
we
can
move
forward
and
so
yeah.
I
hope
that
answers
some
of
it.
D
You
so
no,
I
really
appreciate
that
additional
context
too
around.
It
is
not
minneapolis
in
a
bubble
that
is
experiencing
this
increase.
I
think
that,
because
of
the
fact
we're
feeling
it
so
acutely,
it
can
kind
of
cause
that
bubble
feeling
of
like
this
is
happening
just
to
us,
but
we
have
seen
this
across
the
country
in
major
cities
and
now
we've
seen
a
little
bit
higher
in
minneapolis,
and
I
think
that
really
to
your
point,
I
appreciate
you
bringing
up
the
like
sociological
perspective
of
like
we.
D
We
do
see
some
correlation
now
correlation
isn't
causation,
but
we
do
see
some
correlation
between
when
there
is
police
violence
and
an
uprising
that
happens
no
matter
really
the
scale
of
it.
We
see
a
spike
in
in
crime
that
violent
crime
that
happens
afterwards.
D
So
you
know,
I
think,
that's
something
that
we
really
have
to
kind
of
keep
our
eye
on,
because
I
think
because
there's
some
associate
potential
association
with
a
decrease
in
trust
in
law
enforcement,
and
so
you
know,
I
think
that
that
all
of
this
is
super
helpful
to
know
so
I
can
also
communicate
that
to
my
constituents.
D
I
I
do
think
that
there
also
is
a
necessary
change
management
approach
that
we
as
a
council,
have
to
take
into
consideration
when
we
are
talking
about
thinking
about
and
going
through
the
process
of
reimagining,
because
even
now
nationally,
there
is
still
the
message
out
there
that
we
have
voted
to
abolish
the
police,
and
so,
like
you
know,
we.
I
think
that
that's
also
our
responsibility
to
think
about.
D
How
are
we
thinking
about
that
and
managing
that
change
and
including
police
the
rank
and
file
police
leadership
in
and
bringing
folks
along?
D
I
do
just
want
to
also
really
appreciate
the
fact
that
you
brought
up
gvi
has
been
working
and
we
are
in
an
anomalous
situation
right
now
in
which,
if
you
can't
throw
it
out
saying
oh
see
it
doesn't
work
like
it
has
made
a
difference
and
we've
seen
that
in
the
numbers-
and
we
just
like
you
said-
have
this
awful
perfect
storm
that
has
happened
in
which
all
these
factors
are
are
falling
together
or
crossing
paths.
D
At
the
same
time,
two
two
things
and
then
I
will
I
will
pass
back
to
my
colleagues,
so
I
think
that
it's
going
to
be
really
critical.
I
just
want
to
reiterate
in
this
space
as
we
operationalize
the
cure
violence
model,
because
what
that
does
for
folks
to
be
able
to
understand
is
that
that
really
gets
a
head
of
the
gun,
violence
itself.
It's
folks
who
are
who
are
you
know
out
of
the
life?
D
Maybe
one
foot
in
one
foot
out
have
the
credibility,
the
the
the
level
of
influence
with
the
folks
who
are
shooting
the
guns
to
put
them
down.
One
of
the
things
that
I
appreciate
about
that
is
multi-layered.
Obviously
it
saves
lives.
It
disrupts
her
talent,
the
cycle
of
retaliatory
violence,
but
it
also
unburdens
our
police
officers
as
well,
because
if
we
are
having
folks
disrupted
before
it
pops
off,
then
officers
are
not
having
to
respond
in
the
aftermath
of
multiple
shootings
right.
J
D
Just
responding
for
when
there
are
gunshot
victims
but
being
able
to
like
really
to
dig
in
so
and
and
do
more
of
that
community
building
piece
that
you
frequently
talk
about,
and
also
I
want
to
just
speak
very
quickly.
Thank
you
for
also
acknowledging
my
constant
discussion
of
domestic
violence
intimate
partner
violence.
D
I
just
also
want
to
just
kind
of
name
that
that
number,
while
it's
down
would
there
is
a
belief
amongst
intimate
partner,
family
violence,
advocates
and
specialists
and
and
folks
who
do
the
work,
that
the
reason
why
the
numbers
are
down
across
the
country
is
because
folks
are
sho,
have
been
sheltered
in
place
with
their
abusers
and
they
have
had
nowhere
else
to
go
covet
has
also
been
a
mechanism
of
control,
so,
for
example,
no,
you
can't
leave
the
house
because
you're
going
to
expose
me
then
to
cova.
D
So
it's
like
like
that,
so
the
numbers
are
down
more
than
likely,
because
people
are
unable
to
call
for
the
kind
of
help
that
they've
been
they've
been
on
doing.
I
also
want
to
give
a
quick
shout
out
to
the
domestic
violence
community
navigator
cc
rude,
who
is
amazing?
She's,
basically,
a
one-woman
department
doing
phenomenal
work.
So
I'm
grateful
for
that
and
then
the
last
thing
is.
D
I
would
really
like
to
also
talk
to
get
some
data
at
some
point
about
property
crimes,
because
I
just
know
that
we
we
we
have
some
challenges
in
the
fourth
ward,
around
property
crimes,
and
so
I'm
just
curious
about
that,
so
that
I
can
have
more
of
a
conversation
informed
conversation
about
that.
So
thank
you
for
the
space
everyone.
Thank
you,
chief
for
being
here.
We've
we've
got
your
back.
We
appreciate
you
and
I
will
pass
the
floor
back.
Thank
you.
Everybody.
P
Madam
chair
councilman
cunningham.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
your
very
supportive
words
and
and
as
well
acknowledging
some
of
our
great
folks
who
are
doing
great
work
up
in
the
fourth
precinct
and
of
course
I
couldn't
agree
with
you
more
about
miss
cece
and
her
important
work
on
advocating
for
victims
of
domestic
violence
and,
of
course,
your
leadership
in
that
charge.
P
As
well
to
to
your
to
your
question
about
again,
we
get
tied
up
sometimes
in
in
the
numbers,
whether
it's
homicides,
whether
it's
assaults
and
what
have
you
and
you've
mentioned
the
the
cure
model
and
even
gdi,
and
one
thing
that,
as
chief
I
will
tell
everyone-
is
that
arrests
alone
do
not
remove
the
trauma.
And
so
we
certainly
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
holding
folks
accountable
for
harm
in
our
communities.
P
But
the
arrest
alone
does
not
remove
the
trauma,
and
so
that
is
something
that,
after
the
crime
occurs,
our
communities
are
still
impacted
by
and
so
any
sorts
of
collaboration
and
partnerships
that
we
can
have
as
a
city
that
can
help
prevent
that
from
occurring.
I
will
tell
you
that
the
minneapolis
police
department-
we
certainly
want
to
do
that.
P
I
don't
want
to
keep
our
our
homicide
detectives
busy.
I
don't
want
to
keep
our
robbery
teams
busy
our
assault
teams
busy.
We
know
that
crimes
are
going
to
occur,
but
anything
that
we
can
do
as
a
city
to
reduce
the
harm
to
reduce
the
violence
to
increase
community
safety.
We
certainly
want
to
play
a
role
in
that
and-
and
we'll
definitely
can
make
sure
that
you
get
the
property
crimes
data
that
you
requested.
Thank
you,
councilmember
conor,
here.
B
K
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Thank
you
chief
for
being
here.
I
do
have
to
say
it's
pretty
refreshing
to
have
you
at
these
meetings
regularly.
I
know
that
we've
had
you
here
on
a
number
of
council
meetings,
since
we've
gone
virtual
due
to
the
states
of
emergencies,
and
I
think
for
me
at
least,
and
that
I'm
guessing
it's
probably
similar
for
a
number
of
colleagues,
it's
been
a
way
to
reconnect
with
the
department
in
in
a
way,
that's
really
helpful.
K
K
I
think
you
probably
have
about
the
most
challenging
job
in
the
city
right
now,
and
I
want
you
to
know
that
I
appreciate
you
and
respect
to
you,
I'm
rooting
for
your
success
and
mpd
success
in
both
improving
public
safety
and
in
achieving
transformational
change.
I'm
committed
to
continuing
to
be
a
supportive
partner
and
continuing
to
offer
encouragement
and
to
share
ideas.
I
know
I
have
a
number
of
questions
that
are
really
from
community
and
I
was
wondering
if
we
could
hopefully
quick
get
through
these.
K
You
know
these
are
things
that
are
coming
up
very
frequently
with
constituents,
so
it
sounds
like
9-1-1
calls
continue
to
be
fully
staffed.
Is
that
correct-
and
I
should
say
patrols
for
responding
to
911
calls.
K
Excellent.
Thank
you.
What
steps
are
being
taken
to
plan
for
the
possibility
of
additional
civil
unrest
once
the
trial
results
are
announced?
Obviously,
the
trial
actually
has
to
start
first,
but
I
know
that's
a
frequent
concern.
I
hear
from
constituents.
P
Madam
chair
to
councilman
johnson
and
our
council
members
rest
assured
that
we
have
been
in
planning
and
preparation
for
potential
civil
unrest,
whether
that's
looking
at
the
pulse
trial
verdict
or
whether
that's
even
quite
frankly,
individuals
who
might
want
to
express
themselves
in
some
way
or
shape
with
the
upcoming
election
november.
So
there's
there's,
but
we're
constantly
planning.
We
certainly
are
in
preparation
and
planning
for
those
types
of
events
should
they
occur
and
we'll
continue
to
do
so.
Yeah.
K
P
Madam
chair
to
council,
member
johnson
and
previous
council
meetings,
I
I
believe
there's
been
some
conversations
surrounding
that
to
date
I
have
not
heard
of
any
of
those
I've
not
heard
of
any
of
our
inspectors
out
of
the
precincts
who
have
who
have
seen
that
we
are
not
seeing
anything
in
terms
of
that
would
alert
us
to
that.
There's
some
sort
of
slowdowns
or
what
have
you,
and
so,
as
I
present
this
to
you
today,
that
that
is
not
the
case.
K
P
Madam
chair
to
councilman
johnson,
the
the
tide
is,
is
not
turning
as
quickly
as
I'd
like
to
see
it
turn.
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
I
will
say
that
that
we're
seeing
less
of
is
we're
seeing
less
of
the
group
related
violence,
we're
seeing
less
of
many
of
you.
I
I
know
perhaps
recall
the
incident
that
occurred
earlier
this
summer
in
uptown,
where
there
was
multiple
shots,
being
fired,
multiple
people
being
injured.
P
Those
are
the
things
that
we
never
want
to
see
in
our
city,
so
we
haven't
seen
that
to
that
that
level
we
have
been
successful
in
making
several
arrests,
whether
that's
a
great
mpd
investigative
work,
as
well
as
some
some
significant
arrests
through
our
federal
task
force,
and
so
I
think
that
that
sends
a
message
to
when
individuals
who
have
been
involved
in
criminal
behavior,
harming
our
communities
and
are
known
in
those
circles
have
been
sent
away.
P
I
think
that
helps
too
to
help
stem
some
of
that
tide,
and
so
that's
important.
Your
question
regarding
what
can
community
members
do,
whether
that's
individuals
continuing
to
call
us
when,
when
suspicious
activity
is
occurring
or
criminal
activity
is
occurring
to
make
sure
they're
continuing
to
give
us
a
call?
I
think
all
of
our
council
members
here
have
got
great
partnerships
with
their
local
block
club
neighborhood
groups
to
to
continue
to
get
the
inspectors,
those
frontline
supervisors
and
officers
there
to
those
meetings.
P
I
know
it's
a
little
bit
different
with
covid.
Some
of
those
may
be
virtual,
but
I
think
it's
important
for
us
to
continue
to
have
that
relationship
with
folks
in
those
neighborhoods
to
continue
to
do
that.
The
other
thing
I
think
that
all
of
you
have
played
a
role
in
and
that's
again
looking
at
some
of
those
systemic
things
that
make
it
hard
on
our
communities,
whether
those
are
experiencing
homelessness.
P
Your
work
in
terms
of
that
making
sure
that
folks
have
the
shelter
that
they
need
really
trying
to
work
in
things
of
employment
and
and
mental
health
services.
For
our
folks,
all
of
those
things
contribute
to
a
a
safer
and
healthier
city
which,
in
response,
helps
us
and
helps.
Certainly,
the
police
department
in
terms
of
public
safety.
K
Thank
you,
chief.
Are
we
still,
I
know
before
george
floyd
is
murdered.
We
tended
to
send
two
officers
in
the
squad
to
a
majority
of
calls.
There
were
some
single
officer
squads.
Is
that
still
the
case,
I've
heard
that
there
are
some
instances,
where
kind
of
as
a
default
we're
sending
two
squads
with
two
officers
in
them.
I'm
just
wondering
from
an
operational
standpoint.
Is
it
still
pretty
consistent
in
terms
of
that
configuration
pre,
george
floyd's
murder
versus
today.
P
Madam
chair
to
councilmember
johnson,
yes,
I
I
think
that
for
the
most
part,
the
all
the
five
precincts
are
operating
at
kind
of
a
normal
operating
response
in
terms
of
the
types
of
squads
they're
responding
or
sending
to
these
calls
they're
still
going
to
take
into
consideration
the
information
in
a
call,
the
threat
level
in
a
call
whether
that
means
additional
backup
is
going,
but
I'm
I'm
not
hearing
citywide
that
we're
doing
much
differently
in
terms
of
that,
we're
still
going
to
take
obviously
into
account
the
information,
the
threat
level
and
safety
for
the
officers,
but
I'm
not
seeing
anything.
P
That's
really
changed
drastically
since
may.
25Th.
K
Thank
you
chief.
I
think
this
will
probably
be
my
last
question
here
and
I'll
actually
ask
council
president,
if
it's
appropriate
for
this
meeting
or
if
it's
another
one,
but
I
know
we're
all
committed
to
transformational
change
around
public
safety.
Certainly
you
and
the
mayor
are
no
exception
to
that.
You've
made
that
commitment
and
you
and
the
mayor
have
made
several
changes
already,
and
I
was
wondering
if
you
could
share
your
thoughts
around
next
steps.
K
What
other
changes
the
public
can
expect
to
see
kind
of
what
the
plan
is
around
transformational
change
from
your
approach.
I
know
the
council
has
its
approach
around
reimagining
public
safety
and
before
we
answer
that,
I
guess
I'd.
Ask
council
president,
if
that's
appropriate
subject
for
this
meeting.
Since
I
know
this
is
mainly
focused
on
operations
and
overall
crime
stats.
P
Madam
chair
council,
member
johnson,
so
thank
you
on
that.
One
of
the
things
that
I
I'm
certainly
in
terms
of
leading
with
our
department
in
collaboration
with
other
communities,
is
creating
a
new
mpd,
and
I
think
that
that
message
has
certainly
gone
out
throughout
the
organization
to
our
sworn
civilian
team
members.
P
We
will
not
be
the
same
mpd,
nor
should
we-
and
I
think
that
there's
an
opportunity
for
the
first
time
ever
for
us
to
create
what
a
new
mpd
looks
like
and
what
our
communities
want,
that
new
mpd
to
be.
I
think
that
it
has
to
be
guided
by
people
and
it
has
to
be
in
terms
of
we
need
the
right
people,
leaders
and
influencers,
regardless
of
rank
or
position
to
help
us
move
this
work
forward
and
they
must
be
properly
supported
within
the
organization
community.
P
Transformational
change
reform
must
be
community
centered
and
focused,
and
there
has
to
be
a
process.
Our
organizational
structure
must
support
our
values.
We
must
hire
discipline,
train
our
employees
in
a
way
that
is
consistent
with
our
values.
A
piece
I
talked
about
is
also
data.
We
must
capture
and
routinely
provide
clear,
measurable
information
that
is
focused
on
that.
So
there's
there's
a.
P
I
will
say
that
part
of
the
transformational
change
road
map
and
I
will
also
say
that
there's
many
tables
that
are
being
set
across
our
city,
that
includes
community
electeds,
faith,
leaders
and
others
and
helping
to
guide
this
transformation
transformational
change
work
moving
forward.
There
are
many
that
I
can
go
into
to
to
further
detail.
P
P
I
want
to
see
and
establish
a
community
and
mpd
hiring
board
where
community
has
a
place
and
an
important
role
in
that
model.
A
wellness
program
that
really
is
successful
in
not
only
for
our
employees,
health
and
wellness,
so
that
they
have
long
careers,
but
also
one
that
includes
their
families.
I
constantly
mention
their
family
members
go
along
on
this
journey
with
them.
I
want
to
establish
young
people
in
chiefs
committee
where
young
people
are
equal
partners
and
their
voices
and
experiences
help
to
center
and
forge
true
actionable
reform.
P
Many
of
you
know
that
I
want
to
continue
to
analyze
the
collective
bargaining
agreements
in
certain
areas.
Arbitration
is
another
key
piece
to
that.
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
I
know
that
race
in
the
american
policing
institutions
is
is
inextricably
linked,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
can
lean
into
national
best
practice.
P
Researchers
in
that
area
in
training
to
really
address
that
every
police
department
across
this
country,
all
the
major
city
chiefs
that
I've
spoken
to,
we
have
to
really
come
to
terms
with
race
and
the
role
that
race
plays
in
american
policing
and
that's
and
that
those
are
just
some
of
them
will
certainly
obviously
have
more
conversations
about
that.
But
I
will
say
this
and
I'll
say
this
again,
that
we
must
change.
We
must
create
a
new
mpd.
I
think
our
communities
have
spoken
loud
and
clear.
P
They
don't
want
rhetoric,
they
don't
want
other
flowery
policies
or
new
founded
trainings.
They
want
to
see
substantive
change,
and
so
that
is
the
path
of
forward
and
and
there's
going
again,
it's
really
going
to
have
to
be
community
led
and
driven,
and
so
you
will
see.
Mpd
leaders
are
sworn
in
civilians
in
those
spaces,
along
with
all
of
you
and
community,
to
help
move
that
work
forward.
P
K
I
appreciate
all
your
answers
to
this
and
I
know
that
there's
always
a
person
behind
every
job,
and
this
is
something
I've
shared
with
you
before
and
it's
I
know
how
stressful
it
can
be,
and
it's
stressful
on
on
all
of
us.
K
I
hope
that
you
just
are
making
sure
to
take
care
of
yourself
as
well
your
your
health
and
well-being,
because
we
don't
want
to
see
you
or
anyone
else
burnt
out
in
this
work,
because
we
need
you
operating
at
full
capacity
and
it's
it's
really
challenging
times
very
stressful
and
that
same
hope
for
you
in
terms
of
that,
self-care
applies
as
well
to
every
one
in
mpd,
all
of
our
city,
employees
and
our
community
members
as
well.
My
colleagues,
it's
really
important
to
make
sure
we
make
time
for
that.
A
Thank
you
comes
president,
and
thanks
again
chief.
I
really
appreciate
this
presentation
today.
I'll
also
be
following
up
just
on
the
specific
questions
I
had.
I
realize
it's
a
very
high
level
overview
and
really
didn't
get
into
a
lot
of
the
specifics
I
was
hoping
for,
but
I
can
follow
up
with
you
on
that.
A
I
think
the
the
one
comment
I
would
had
is
that
that's
also
what
I'm
getting
from
my
constituents
like
they
are
asking
for
a
lot
more
specifics
of
you
know
how
is
crime
being
dealt
with
in
very
specific
areas
and
in
my
ward,
whether
that's
a
business
note
or
problem
properties
that
have
been
an
issue
for
a
very,
very
long
time
and
they're
looking
for
specifics
that
are
able
to
not
just
who
you're
working
with
and
all
of
those
things.
A
I
think
that
that's
that's
the
start
of
it,
but
they
really
need
to
get
into
the
specifics
of
how,
when
you're,
looking
at
the
numbers,
what
metrics
you're
using
and
how
that
is
really
guiding
your
choices.
So
that
is
one
thing
to
to
really
be
looking
for.
I'm
also
really
interested
to
hear
what
reforms
you're
talking
about,
because
I
think
it
is
one
thing
one
of
my.
A
P
Madam
chair
councilmember
schroeder.
No
thank
you
for
your
your
very
thoughtful
thoughts
and
insight
on
that.
Yes,
some
of
the
the
reform
that
you're
you're
mentioning
and
talking
about
that.
I
think
that
we
both
agree
on
it's
it's
going
to
take
a
lot
of
work.
Some
of
that
work
is
good,
is
going
to
be
some
heavy
lifting
here
on
the
local
level.
Some
of
that,
quite
frankly,
as
you
know,
when
it
comes
to
other
types
of
things,
may
include
some
changes
at
our
state
legislature.
P
So
there's
there's
you
know,
and
funding
is
a
piece
to
that
as
well,
and
that's
just
not
on
the
on
the
shoulders
of
our
city,
council,
members
and
our
constituents
here
in
the
city,
but
that
may
mean
other
types
of
resources
that
may
be
needed
from
outside
that.
So
no,
I
absolutely
want
to
talk
with
you
and
communicate
with
you
on
on
what
that
looks
like
and
and
how
we
can
work
together
towards
that.
B
Thanks
chief,
I
had
a
couple
of
questions
and
I
know
councilmember
gordon
has
a
follow-up
to
the
earlier
conversation,
I'm
wondering
I
know,
we've
had
some
conversations
about
communicating
and
some
questions
about
client
crime
prevention
specialists
to
me.
B
I
think,
council
members
get
a
lot
of
questions
about
mpd
and
you
know
we
struggle,
because
the
department
doesn't
report
to
the
city
council
and
you
know-
and
so
I
you
know,
I
know
we
appreciate
when
you
come
and
give
us
updates
when
the
rubber
meets
the
road,
though
we
are
not
there
making
the
decisions
about
the
functions
of
the
department,
and
so
I
think
you
know
having
as
much
transparency
with
the
public
helps
all
of
us
be
able
to
communicate
better,
and
you
know
when
I
track
down
the
details
of
particular
incidents
that
have
happened
in
my
ward
or
other
incidents
that
I
get
questions
about.
B
There
seem
to
be
a
pretty
s
small
set
of
things
that
have
happened
so
there's
incidents
that
are
gang
or
group
involved
like
the
shooting
in
uptown
there's.
You
know
some
property
crimes
and
now,
unfortunately,
more
frequently
some
armed
robberies
that
seem
to
be
groups
of
young
people,
targeting
particular
geographic
areas
of
the
city.
B
You
know
in
particular
times
there
seems
to
be
crime,
criminal
activity
related
to
to
drug
dealing
and
drug
use,
as
you've
mentioned,
and
then
there's
domestic
violence
related
incidents,
and
it
seems
pretty
rare
that
there's
something
happening
that
doesn't
fall
into
one
of
those
general
categories,
but
when
a
crime
occurs,
there
isn't
much
information
shared
about
why
it
happened
or
what
the
circumstances
were,
and
I
think
it
it
really
serves
to
increase
fear
in
the
community
when
folks,
don't
understand
what's
happening,
and
why-
and
so
I
think,
the
more
we
can
share
about
the
context
and,
of
course,
everyone
we
want
everyone
to
be
safe.
B
You
know
whether
the
group
involved
or
whatever
the
those
circumstances
of
the
violence
is.
We
absolutely
want
everyone
to
stay
safe
in
each
of
those
incidents
of
of
homicide
or
those
incidents
of
gun.
Violence
are
unacceptable
to
be
clear,
but
you
know
for
the
for
the
neighbors
or
for
the
public
who's
reading
in
the
newspaper
or
hearing
on
their
email
list
serves
about
it
an
incident.
I
think
the
context
really
is
helpful
to
understand
what's
going
on
and
why
we're
seeing
different
shifts
of
criminal
activity.
P
Madam
chair,
no,
that
is
a
very
important
question.
One
of
the
things
that
I
certainly
know
that
impacts
our
community
members
is.
Is
that
feeling
or
that
perception
of
what
is
occurring
and
why
is
it
occurring?
One
of
the
challenges
oftentimes
is
that
after
the
crime
occurs,
whether
it's
the
the
shooting
in
uptown
or
whether
it's
a
a
rash
of
carjackings,
is
it
obviously
our
officers
are
trying
to
get
there
and
make
the
apprehensions.
P
Our
investigators
are
trying
to
work
diligently
to
gather
the
facts,
gather
the
evidence
and
make
a
successful
arrest,
but
while
all
of
that
is
occurring,
which
is
which
is
good-
and
we
want
them
to
do
that,
but
while
all
that
is
occurring
it
it
leaves
communities
to
have
to
figure
out
and
and
sometimes
guess.
Why
is
this
occurring?
Could
I
be
the
next
victim
so
you're?
Absolutely
right?
It
is
important,
as
as,
if
we
can
to
get
as
much
information
out
there.
P
Sometimes
we've
done
it
in
the
sense
where
you've
probably
seen
communications
that
have
said.
Basically
an
arrest
was
made.
The
community
does
not
have
to
be
concerned.
It
was
not
a
random
situation,
sometimes
like
that,
but
that
I
know
that
oftentimes
does
not
really
satisfy
communities
and
they
want
to
know
that
why
I
think
it
it
it's
it's
it's
worth
and
there's
value
in
having
some
more
discussions
on
that.
P
There
are
some
things.
Obviously,
through
you
know,
through
the
investigation,
we
may
not
be
able
to
publicly
disclose
statements
that
the
suspect
may
have
made
or
a
victim
may
have
made,
but
but
if
there's
a
way
for
us
to
try
to
at
least
get
some
information
that
you
believe
community
members,
it
would
lead
to
help
temper
their
concerns
or
fears.
I
think
that's,
I
think,
that's
important,
but
that
communication
is
a
huge
piece
of
public
safety
and
and
people's
feelings.
P
B
Thank
you
chief
and
then
I
appreciated
the
detail
in
the
staffing
update
that
you
gave
earlier.
We've
seen
a
lot
of
press
about
this
and
there's
a
lot
of
interest.
I
think
in
the
speculation
around
officers
being
out
for
one
reason
or
another:
can
you
can
you
talk
about
that
because
we've
seen
so
many
articles
sort
of
indicating
that
a
lot
of
officers
are
out
or
are
leaving
the
department,
but
it
sounds
like,
as
you've
said
several
times
during
this
meeting,
that
we're
at
a
normal
operating
level.
B
As
far
as
response
within
the
precinct.
P
Madam
chair
council
members,
so
to
your
question,
madam
chair:
yes,
we've
we've
heard
the
same
information,
that's
or
the
comments
that
have
been
made
publicly
as
well.
We
we
know
that
traditionally
we
look
at
about
40
or
45
on
average,
normal
attrition
separations
retirements
a
year.
We
also
know
that
we've
seen
at
least
a
year
to
date,
an
increase
in
in
other
types
of
separations
or
claims
where
our
employees
have
left,
and
so
that
has
been.
P
We
have
seen
an
increase
in
that,
but
some
of
the
numbers
that
have
been
publicly
commented
on.
We
have
not
seen
that
yet
now
again,
I
will
not
see
those
separation
notices
until
they
literally
are
on
my
desk,
but
in
terms
of
the
numbers
that
have
been
out
there
that
have
been
publicly
commented
on.
We
have
not
experienced
that
yet,
but
we
always
and
we'll
continue
to
look
at
our
resources
and
do
what
we
have
to
based
on
those
attrition
numbers,
whether
it's
hiring
freezes,
whether
it's
classes
coming
forward.
B
Thank
you
and
then
just
one
last
thing
I
do
you
know
I
do
want
to
say
I
I
echo
my
colleagues
confidence
in
your
leadership
and
I
also
know
that
we
have
a
lot
of
work
ahead.
I
think
the
trauma
that
our
community
is
experiencing
because
of
george
floyd's
killing
is
profound,
but
we
also
have
over
200
complaints
of
police
officer
behavior.
B
B
You
know
more
than
ever,
and
we
just
can't
allow
this
to
be
the
next
time
that
we
all
say
this
will
be
different
and
then
move
forward,
there's
just
no
moving
forward
without
different,
deeper
change,
and
so
I
you
know
again.
B
I
echo
the
confidence
in
your
leadership,
but
I
also
know
that
continuing
on
in
the
ways
that
the
pace
that
we've
been
doing
in
the
past
isn't
going
to
meet
the
moment
that
we're
in,
and
so
we
have
a
number
of
really
important
things
underway,
of
course,
the
department
of
human
rights
legal
process
that
will
take
a
while.
B
Of
course,
the
federal
government
now
has
not,
you
know,
isn't
in
a
position,
I
guess
to
be
able
to
provide
support
to
the
city
like
it
has
in
the
past,
so
there
there
isn't
a
way
for
us
to
have
a
new
review
done
in
that
in
that
way
like
we
have
in
the
past,
but
I
do
think
looking
back
to
those
reviews
that
happened
after
jamar
clark
was
killed
after
justine.
Damon's
death
still
have
a
lot
of
value,
and
we
have
you
know
we
have
the
pcoc.
We
have
our
civil
rights
department.
B
We
have
leaders
within
the
police
department.
We
have
council
members
and
community
members
wanting
to
help
fulfill
all
of
our
promises
that
things
will
be
different
moving
forward.
So
I
just
I
do
want
to
lift
up
that.
You
know
our
community
is
really
hurting
and
and
hearing
the
updates
about
making
sure
that
our
community
is
safe
from
crime
is,
is
important
and
we
also
need
to
make
sure
that
our
department
is
providing
that
safety
in
a
way
that
people
can
trust
and
not
furthering
any
harm.
B
So
both
things
are
so
important.
Right
now
and
I
know
moving
forward
we'll
be
able
to
have
a
committee
again
more
focused
on
this
work.
I
think
you
know
it
will
be
helpful,
but
all
that
we
also
have
you
know
the
whole
city
council
needing
and
wanting
to
stay
involved
so
yeah.
I
guess
that
could
just
be
a
comment.
B
P
Chair
the
council
members,
madam
chair,
thank
you
for
your
your
comments
on
that.
I
will
tell
you
that
some
of
what
you
said
really
resonated
and-
and
I
will
also
just
say
that
our
guiding
path
forward-
you
cannot
see
it
here,
but
but
this
template
moving
forward,
it
says,
do
no
harm
and
harm
is
defined
as
causing
someone
or
something
to
be
hurt,
broken
damaged
or
made
less
valuable.
P
The
men
and
women
who
put
on
this
uniform
who
come
to
work
each
day
and
night.
They
have
to
understand
that
they
have
to
believe
that
we,
as
the
minneapolis
police
department,
acknowledge
our
contribution
to
both
historical
and
present
day
and
the
principle
of
do
no
harm
provides
us
a
guiding
light
from
which
all
decisions
must
flow,
and
so
that
has
to
guide
us
in
all
of
our
actions
and
every
single
sworn
and
civilian
member
of
this
department
they
have
to.
P
They
have
to
know
that
council
president
bender,
we
cannot
go
back
to
status
quo.
We
cannot
go
back
to
business
as
usual,
or,
as
you
mentioned,
our
communities
are
hurting
and
they're
they're
looking
at
us
to
see
something
different
to
have
hope
not
just
for
them
but
for
their
children,
and
I
know
that
for
the
men
and
women
who
will
continue
to
be
here
today
tomorrow
and
for
the
years
to
come,
they're
going
to
have
to
take
the
lead
in
that
and
they're
going
to
have
to
really.
P
You
know
when
this
is
looked
upon
years
from
now.
I
want
every
single
person
who's
part
of
this
police
department
to
ask
themselves.
What
did
I
do
during
that
time?
That
moment
in
history
to
make
a
positive
difference,
and
so
that
is
a
question
we
all
have
to
ask
ourselves,
and
so
that
is
the
work
that
I
will
continue
to
strive
for.
B
I
appreciate
I
appreciate
that
chief
and
you
know
I'll
just
say
too
that
policing
isn't
the
only
part
of
systems
that
have
needed.
That
kind
of
transformational
change,
and
I
think
I
think
that's
part
of
what
the
council
is
talking
about
when
we're
talking
about
structural
change
and
deep
and
transformational
change
is
understanding
that
it's
not
the
individuals
per
se
within
the
system.
It's
the
system
itself
that
was
constructed
in
a
way
that
is
causing
harm,
and
that
has
been
true
for
other
systems
as
well.
B
It's
true
for
our
our
zoning
and
land
use
laws
that
codified
racial
exclusion
and
housing
that
we
were
able
to
work
together
with
community
to
overturn.
It
was
true
of
engineering
that
tore
down
neighborhoods
to
build
freeways
so
that
people
could
drive
quickly
through
neighborhoods
that
caused
incredible
economic
damage
and
community
damage.
It
tore
up
apart
vibrant
communities
and
it
caused
all
kinds
of
harm
in
terms
of
health
impacts,
all
of
which
have
a
history
of
white
supremacy
and
racial
exclusion
and
racial
harm.
B
And
so
I
mean
we
could
go
on
to
more
examples
within
government
systems.
So
I
think
part
of
why
the
council
is
so
interested
in
thinking
about
public
safety,
not
as
a
stand-alone
policing-only
system
is
because
we
understand
and
acknowledge
how
much
all
of
our
systems
need
to
transform
and
change
together.
B
So
I
just
you
know,
I
think
that
integration
piece
of
of
how
safety
fits
into
the
work
of
every
department
and
how
really
it's
incumbent
on
every
member
of
our
staff
community
in
the
city
to
be
contributing
to
public
safety
and
making
sure
everyone
is
safe.
I
think
it
reflects
and
acknowledges
how
much
all
of
the
systems
within
our
government
need
to
change
and
continue
to
evolve.
B
We
have
council,
member
gordon,
I
think,
think,
a
much
more
detailed
and
specific
follow-up
to
the
earlier
comments.
E
I
did
thank
you
and
it's
hard
for
me
to
bring
us
back
to
such
a
kind
of
a
detailed
mundane
topic.
I
just
want
to
note
how
incredibly
helpful
and
interesting
it
was
to
hear
this
conversation
and
hear
my
con.
My
colleagues
views
and
I'm
impressed,
I
think,
with
how
united
that
we
really
are
on
digging
in
and
making
the
transformative
changes
that
we
need
to
have.
E
I
just
hope
everyone
in
the
city
is
watching
and
following
this
I
think
the
president
said
something
about
all
hands
on
deck
and
I'm
certainly
in
that
too,
and
I
think
it's
not
only
all
hands
on
deck
in
terms
of
all
of
us
who
are
in
this
meeting.
E
But
all
of
us
in
the
city
need
to
be
doing
this
work
together
and
I'm
really
hopeful
that
we
can
be
and
we
will
be
as
we're
moving
forward
and
I
know
there'll
be
lots
of
pieces
and
parts
that
people
can
pick
up
and
champion
and
one
of
those
small
parts
had
to
do
with
business,
licensing
and
officers
who
are
working
off
duty.
And
so
I
went
back
and
I
double
checked
and
really
what
we
were
after
here
and
I
could
read
the
the
request.
E
E
I'll
just
say
what
we're
looking
for
and
what
we're
looking
for
today
is
a
full
list
of
businesses
that
currently
use
off-duty
minneapolis
police
officers
as
security
and
further
requesting
that
the
police
department
create
and
maintain
a
public
facing
list
of
businesses
that
use
off-duty,
minneapolis
police
officers
as
security
and
I'm
happy
to
copy
that
more
specifically
and
maybe
send
it
to
the
deputy
chiefs
as
well.
So
that
folks
are
aware
of
it
or
if
there's
one
person.
E
You
think
that
we
should
reach
out
to
I'd,
be
happy
to
do
that
to
rondo
and
appreciate
that
we're
gonna
be
moving
forward
into
more
committee
work
and
just
to
prove
that
I'm
interested
in
all
hands
on
deck.
I'm
anxious
and
eager
to
get
back
on
the
public
health,
public
safety
committee
and
with
our
new
structure.
So
I
can
dig
in
and
do
more
of
that
work
with
all
the
rest.
P
Councilmember
gordon,
thank
you
for
that
question,
and
I
I
do
know
that
that
is
something
that
we
do
track
and
currently,
when
those
offices,
when
every
officer
every
employee
puts
in
or
submits
to
be
authorized
to
work
a
off-duty
employment
job.
P
Obviously
the
business
name
has
to
be
obviously
a
part
of
that,
and
so
so
that
is
tracked
for
each
calendar
year,
and
so
I
know
again
the
leadership
of
council
members,
promisono,
fletcher
and
connell
on
that
off-duty
task
force
meeting,
but
that
is
that
is
information
that
we
we
certainly
do
have.
I
know
you
mentioned
about
a
public-facing
kind
of
a
portal
for
that
as
well.
We
have
not.
Certainly
we
haven't
done
that.
P
B
List,
okay,
I
don't
see
anyone
so
thank
you,
chief
for
taking
the
time-
and
I
know
we
look
forward
to
hearing
more
I'll,
have
be
happy
to
follow
up
with
you
and
my
colleagues
about
a
study
session.
B
I
had
a
chance
to
check
in
with
commissioner
rebecca
lucero
about
the
community
engagement
that
will
start
with
the
department
of
human
rights
process.
We
have.
The
mayor
had
initiated
some
conversations.
B
I
know
the
council
has
been
talking
about
more
community
engagement
around
reimagining
safety,
so
I
think
the
extent
to
which
we
can
coordinate
these
various
different.
You
know
kind
of
buckets
of
work
that
are
happening.
It
will
help
our
community
feel
like
they
can
get
involved
and
be
heard
in
a
more
simple
fashion
than
trying
to
track
all
these
different
moving
pieces.
So
that
could
be
one
thing
that
might
be
nice
to
highlight
and
talk
about
in
a
in
a
study
session
with
some
more
time.
B
So,
thank
you
and
I
again
I
don't
see
any
more
so
I'll
direct
the
chief.
The
clerk
excuse
me
thank
you,
chief
I'll
direct
the
clerk
to
receive
and
file
this
report,
and
that
is
our
final
item
on
our
agenda
today.
So
I
do
want
to
give
a
quick
update
on
the
council.
B
Reorganization
again,
I
will
bring
that
forward
at
our
next
council
meeting
on
friday
august
28th
that
this
will
be
able
to
include
our
new
colleague,
the
ward
6
council
member,
elect
jamal
osman,
who
I
was
able
to
meet
with
earlier
this
week
to
talk
about
our
council
structure
and
how
to
best
support
his
leadership
and
the
needs
of
ward
6
in
our
new
structure,
as
well
as
recognizing
he'll,
be
a
brand
new
council
member
with
jumping
into
a
lot
of
work.
So
we
plan
to
continue
to
maintain
our
budget
committee
as
a
stand-alone
committee.
B
We
would
maintain
pogo
but
move
some
of
the
items
out
of
this
committee
and
those
would
go
to
two
new
standing
committees,
public
health
and
safety,
as
well
as
transportation
and
public
works.
I've
had
a
chance
to
check
in
with
each
of
you.
I
just
really
appreciate
how
much
you
have
been
able
to
both
step
up
and
work
really
hard,
each
of
us
in
our
different
roles,
but
as
well
as
be
so
collaborative
and
so
supportive
of
each
other's
leadership.
B
It's
you
know
quite
incredible.
I
think
that
we
are
working
so
well
together
as
a
body
right
now
in
in
the
time
of
crisis
in
our
city,
and
it
really
speaks
to
each
of
your
commitment
to
each
other
and
to
governing
well,
and
it's
not
inevitable.
It
takes
work
and
it
takes
commitment.
So
I
appreciate
it
so
much
and
it
really
showed
up
in
in
each
of
the
conversations
that
I
had
with
you
how
much
you're
willing
to
chip
in
as
well
as
to
support
each
other's
leadership.
B
So
I
will
leave
it
at
that
for
now
and
again
have
sent
out
some
of
those
details
and
I'll
just
note
that,
because
of
the
items
related
to
the
public
hearings
that
we
will
have
in
our
next
cycle,
those
would
be
coming
to
the
council
meeting
on
friday,
potentially
or
we've
we'll
wait
to
set
those
until
after
we
have
the
structure
finalized.
So
I'll
see.
If
the
clerk
wants
to
add
anything
to
that.
G
Madam
chair,
the
only
thing
I
would
hope
to
add
is
that
we
would
want
to
adjourn
this
meeting
until
one
o'clock
the
following
thursday.
When
we
return.
There
are
some
activities
that
were
already
noticed
for
public
hearings
that
were
specifically
noticed
to
come
to
pogo
on
a
date
certain,
and
I
apologize.
G
I
don't
have
that
exactly
in
front
of
me
and
perhaps
ms
menchik
does,
but
there
was
a
a
prior
notice
on
several
high-profile
issues
specifically
noticed
for
pogo
and,
and
so
our
recommendation
is
that,
in
order
to
be
consistent
and
not
have
to
go
through
re-noticing
that
we
would
adjourn
this
meeting
and
take
up
those
items
and
then
move
back
the
first
regular
meeting
of
what
is
proposed
for
public
health
and
safety.
B
Great,
thank
you,
mr
carl.
So
I
appreciate
that,
and
I
do
see
that
noted
here
I
was
I
was
trying
to
be
expedient
here
in
in
wrapping
up,
but
so
yes,
so
in
order
to
accommodate
those
scheduled
public
hearings,
we
will
adjourn
this
meeting
of
pogo
to
september
10th
at
1
30
p.m.
That
will
allow
us
to
move
forward
with
those
previously
noticed
public
hearings
without
having
to
reschedule
them
and
then
we'll
transition
into
the
new
structure.
B
So
with
that,
unless
there
are
any
questions
or
any
further
discussion,
we
stand
adjourned
to
september
10th
at
1,
30
pm.
Thank
you
all,
and
I
will
see
you.
