Sorry. No data so far.
There’s a blog for that
Wednesday, February 3, 2021 by Tai Moses
No doubt you’ve heard about the ongoing city process called Reimagining Public Safety. Since there are so many questions – and some confusion – about the process, the city has launched a blog to keep track of the multipronged initiative and what people – community members, city leaders, experts – are saying and thinking about it. The city announcement explains, “You will find a variety of posts that will help you better understand everything the city is doing to create a public safety capability that works for everyone, as well as information on how you can provide input and make your voice heard.” For starters, one blog post tackles the question, “Does reimagining public safety mean defunding the police?” (No.) See a list of all blog posts.
