THOSE WHO SPEAK TO US, I SPEAK
ON AGENDA NUMBER EIGHT ARE REPOS
FROM THE ATTORNEY CRIMINAL DIVI.
CRIME IS THROUGH THE ROOF.
NOTHING SURPRISES ME, YOU KNOW.
I LIVED HERE FOR 35 YEARS.
WHAT SURPRISE ME IS WHY WE NOT
ARREST? WE DON'T HAVE
COVID RIGHT NOW. WE
DON'T HAVE NOTHING RIGHT NOW.
WE DON'T HAVE FLU RIGHT NOW,
AND EVERYTHING IS STAYING CLOSE.
NEVER SHOW OUR FACES.
WHEN WILL WE STOP ACTING LIKE A?
LOOK. I DON'T
UNDERSTAND THIS. WHERS
THIS -- WHY? THREE
YEARS IS ENOUGH. WE
TALK ABOUT THIS. BUT
IT'S NO MORE COVID. SO
SO THIS CRIME, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING, COUNCIL? WHAT S
THIS? IT'S A CRIME.
WHY DON'T WE BRING BACK NORMAL,
WHAT WE CALL ORDER?
WHY YOU DOING THIS SO DIFFERENT?
CAN YOU EXPLAIN TO ME?
TO ME? WHY?
THREE YEARS IS ENOUGH.
ENOUGH. COME BACK TO
AMERICA, NORMAL. THIS
IS WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE.
YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ALL HERE
AND SEE OUR FACES.
IT'S NOT THE GESTAPO PRINCIPLE.
YOU A CRIMINAL. I TALK
TALK ABOUT THIS FOR FIVE MONTHS.
WHY DON'T WE SHOW OUR FACES?
WHY ARE WE IDENTICAL NOW?
PURE CRIMINAL. THAT'S
WHAT I AM TALKING.
750,000 IDIOTS.
>> OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS DJ
FOLLOWED BY DAVID HAYNES.
>> I AM DJ, A BALLARD RESIDENT
AND SMALL BUSINESS RECORD.
I'M CALLING ON THE CRIMINAL
JUSTICE REFORM ANALYSIS.
SPD AND MEMBERS OF THE CABINET
STATED THE METHODOLOGY, AND
FIRST OF ALL, A GROUP TIED TO
LAW ENFORCEMENT LED BY THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM AND THIS
AND THIS IS HARDLY A RADICAL GR.
THE ANALYSIS IS BASED ON GREED-C
ITEMS. SPD CLOSED OUT
THE CALL OF THE ARREST RATE AND
WHETHER THE CALL TYPE WOULD
BENEFIT FROM THE CALL RESPONSE.
THE COMBINATION OF THE THREE
FACTORS IS HOW THEY NOMINATED
THE CALLS TO THE SPD APPROACH.
THEY SIGNED OFF BEFORE THEY EVER
EVER BEGAN THE ANALYSIS.
SPD DID NOT START GENERATING
NICK JUNIOR. SPD HAS
NO MANY OBJECTIONS TO THE IDEOL,
WHY THAT THEY APPROVE IT IN THET
PLACE? THE RISK
MANAGEMENT IN THE FRAMEWORK IS E
IMPACT BY THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS
BY ATTEMPTING TO USE THE
TOTALITY OF CIRCUMSTANCES
INCLUDING LOCATION AND CERTAIN
WORD THAT IS A CALLER USES TO
SIGN AN SPD OR NON-POLICE
RESPONSE INSTEAD OF ASSIGNING
THE THREE CALL TYPES TO SPD ORA.
THEY MAGICALLY CLAIM THAT TWO
MINOR STEPS WILL ENTIRELY
MITIGATE THIS. THIS
CANNOT BE MITIGATED AWAY BECAUSE
BECAUSE THEY ARE REACTIVELY
MAKING DECISIONS ON THE SPD HISC
DATA. AND SPD HISTORIC
HISTORIC DATA IS RACIST BY PROX.
HOW A SYSTEM THAT IS DESIGNED TO
TO DEFEND A NOON POLICE RESPONS-

NEXT SPEAKER IS DAVID FOLLOWED Y
PETER.
US?
>> THANK YOU. DAVID
HAYNES, BEARING WITNESS TO EVILG
AND UNDERMINING SEATTLE'S CHIEF
FOR PEACE AND HIS FRIENDS AND
NOT A FIRST-WORLD QUALITY OF L.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LIFE IN A
CIVILIZED SOCIETY WHEN THE
OFFICIALS MAKE CALLS TO ALLOW PE
TO HAVE CRACK ON THEM AND IT'S
EASY TO CREATE PROPERTY CRIME
AND SEX CRIMES THAT DEEPLY
ROOTED, AND THE MAYOR AND POLICE
POLICE CHIEF AND PROSECUTORS OFE
ARE GOING OUT OF THEIR WAY TO
APPEASE A HANDFUL OF ORGANIZERS
AND DEVIL'S ADVOCATES WHO HAVE N
OVER THE AGENDA TO UPEND THE
MAJORITY OF A DEPLOARITY OF THE
MINORITY ALLOWED TO CONDUCT A CL
WAR ON THE COMMUNITY WITH IMPUN.
YOU AND YOUR STAFF DON'T HAVE
THE BEST INTEREST OF THE
COMMUNITY AT LARGE.
YOU'RE PURPOSELY UNDERMINING
SOCIETY AND THINK IT DOWN A
DESTRUCTIVE PATH TO APPEASE A
BUNCH OF SCORNED ORGANIZERS AND
DEFINITELY'S ADVOCATES FROM KING
KING COUNTY EQUITY NOW AND OTHER
OTHER NEWLY CREATED NON-PROFITS
HIDING ARSONISTS FROM GEORGE
FLOYD PROTESTERS WHO POCKET TAX
MONEY IN A TRADE FOR NOT PROTESG
YOU WITH ELECTION APPARATUS AND
CONTINUE TO CHASE VICTIMS OF
CRIME WITH PROFITABLE WRAP-AROUD
SERVICES USING TAX MONEY BY THE
SAME NON-PROFITS TO EXPAND THE
POLITICAL SUPPORT WHO ARE UNQUAD
TO SOLVE PROBLEMS.
EVEN THE RACIST POLICE CHIEF IS
ON RECORD CLAIMING THAT HE'S
USING HIS LEADERSHIP TO MAKE ITP
TO THE BLACK AND BROWN COMMUNITY
COMMUNITY FOR PAST WRONGS BY NOT
NOT POLICING PROPERLY.
POLICING PROPERLY. THE
THE POLICE CHIEF ONLY HAS LIKE
SIX YEARS OF CRIME --
>> THE LAST SPEAKER IS PETER CO.
PETER?
>> HELLO.
GOOD MORNING. S THIS
PETER CONDIT, SMALL BUSINESS
OWNER IN DISTRICT SIX.
DISTRICT SIX. COUNCIL
IS PRESENTED TODAY WITH A RISK T
CONTRACTED BY THE SEATTLE POLICT
ATTEMPTING TO QUANTIFY THE RISKS
RISKS TO FIRST RESPONDERS BY
COMMUNITY MEMBERS BUT COMPLETELE
THE REAL RISK OF INJURY AND
DEATH POLICE OFFICERS REFLECT TO
TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS BECAUSE SPS
UNHAPPY WITH THE RESULTS.
SPD MADE IT KNOWN PUBLICALLY
THAT THEY THOUGHT MORE CALL
TYPES SHOULD REMAIN IN THEIR JUN
AND THEY CAN'T BE CONSIDERED IN.
THE CONSULTANT IS LITERALLY PAID
PAID TO DELIVER RESULTS IN LINE
WITH THE COST OF DEMAND.
THE FIRST PART, THE NATIONAL
INSTITUTE FOR CRIMINAL JUSTICE
REFORM, NICK JUNIOR, IS HEADED
BY DAVID MOHAMMED WHO HAS WORKED
WORKED IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
AND ALSO PARTNERED WITH CAPTAIN
JOYNER, A 27-YEAR MEMBER OF THE
OAKLAND POLICE DEPARTMENT.
THE METHODOLOGY USED THE CALL
STATUS, ARREST RATE, AND
QUALITY OF ASSESSMENT OF HOW THL
TYPES WOULD BENEFIT FROM THE RE.
SPD SIGNED OFF ON THIS
METHODOLOGY BEFORE THE FILING OF
OF THE REQUIREMENT.
THEY THREATEN POLICE POWER AND .
ANALYSIS FOUND THAT 49% OF SPD
CALLS THIS RECEIVE A
COMMUNITY-BASED NON-POLICE
RESPONSE AND 24% A
COMMUNITY-BASED RESPONSE WITH
SPD PRESENT. THE
ANALYSIS SHOULD NOT BE USED TO
LIMIT THE SCOPE OF WHAT SHOULD
BE TRANSFERRED OUT OF SPD AND
INTO NON-VIOLENT ORGANIZATIONS
AS OUTLINED BY THE REPORT.
THANK YOU FOR LISTENING.

LIFE TO EQUITY AND THAT IS
REACHING PEOPLE WHERE THEY ARE

I HAVE, 12 A.061 TICKET, AND 12
12 A.06165, 12 A.06170, 12 A.06.
OF THE SEATTLE MUNICIPAL CODE.
>> AND THANK YOU. AND
WE WILL HAND IT OVER TO YOU, R.
>> THANK YOU. AND
FIRST OF ALL, I APOLOGIZE FOR
THE CLERK FOR THE LONG TITLE.
UNLIKE THE TRAFFIC ORDINANCE,
THE CRIMINAL ORDINANCE DOESN'T
HAVE TO BE THE SAME AS THE STATW
EXCEPT WHEN THEY PROHIBIT THE SE
CONDUCT, THE PUNISHMENT HAS TO
BE THE SAME, AND LARGELY, THAT
IS MUCH OF WHAT THE ORDINANCES,
SECTION TWO REQUIRES CONFIRMED
CERTAIN PENALTIES FOR ANIMAL
CONTROL VIOLATIONS AND TALKS
ABOUT THE PROBATION PROFITED, FE
OF ANIMALS, PROHIBITING A PERSOD
OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS FROM
OWNING ANIMALS FOR A PERIOD OF
TIME AND REQUIRES THAT THE
PERSON OF VIOLATION OF ANIMAL
CONTROL TO FACE RESTITUTION COSS
IN A CASE. SO THE
SECTION CONFIRM WHAT IS APPROPRE
-- LET'S SAY A SEATTLE COURT
ORDERS A DEFENDANT NOT TO HAVE
ANY CONTACT WITH A VICTIM AND TE
DEFENDANT MOVES TO CALIFORNIA
AND SUNDAYS THE TEXT MESSAGE TO
THE VICTIM BUT SHE GETS THEM
WHILE SHE IS ON VACATION SOMEWH.
WE'VE DON'T WANT A SITUATION
WHERE THE VICTIM HAS TO GO TO
CALIFORNIA OR ANOTHER STATE BUTE
CAN DO THAT IN SEATTLE IF THE
PERSON IS A RESIDENT OF SEATTLE.
THAT'S THE REASON FOR THAT.
AND SECTION 467 RENAMED CYBER
STALKING AS CYBER HARASSMENT
AND CREATES CYBER STALKING WITN
ALL RIGHT MONITORING DEVICE FOR
THE PERSON AND WE HAD AN
INCIDENT THIS SUMMER INVOLVING
THAT THAT WE COULDN'T CHARGE.
AND SO THIS IS -- THIS IS A
CRIME THAT ACTUALLY DOES SEEM TO
TO OCCUR, PERHAPS MORE
FREQUENTLY THESE DAYS WITH THE
INNOVATIONS IN ELECTRONIC MONIT.
SECTION FIVE PROHIBITS THE VALES
VALES OF ASSAULTS FOR GENDER OR
SEXUAL ORIENTATION OR IDENTITY.
AND SECTION 18 CONCERNS
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS THAT WE ND
TO ENFORCE SOME OF THE STATE'S
LAWS THAT WE PREVIOUSLY ADOPTEDY
PREFERENCE. SECTION 19
19 ADDS BACK INTO THE CODE THE N
THAT WE HAD REPEALED WHEN WE
REPEALED OTHER ORDINANCES THAT
WERE DESIGNED TO ADOPT STATE LAS
BY REFERENCE. SECTION
22 THROUGH 27 CONCERN NEW AND RD
FIREARMS LAWS.
FIREARMS ARE PROHIBITED AT
SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS, AT
DEMONSTRATIONS, AND VOTING
FACILITIES, AND LARGE CAPACITY
MAGAZINES AND TRACEABLE FIREARME
PROHIBITED. AND FALSE
REPORTING IN MAKING A REPORT THT
IN AN EMERGENCY RESPONSE.
I THINK IS CALLED SWATTING, AND
AND SECTION 29, A PERSON WILL
HAVE TO RECEIVE WRITTEN NOTICE F
A COURT -- OF A NEXT COURT DATET
THEY WOULD MISS TO GO CHARGED
WITH A CRIME. SO THAT
IS THE EXTENT OF THE ORDINANCE.
>> THANK YOU. OF THE
BULLETED ITEMS IN THE CENTRAL
STAFF MEMO, WHICH ITEMS ARE
ITEMS THAT HAVE TO BE MADE TO BE
TO BE CONSISTENT WITH STATE LAW.
>> IN TERMS OF CRIMINAL LAW,
THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE THE SAME
EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT IF A CY
ORDINANCE AND STATE LAW PROHIBIT
PROHIBIT THE SAME THING, THE
PUNISHMENT HAS TO BE THE SAME.
THAT'S WHY SECTION TWO MODIFIES
THE PUNISHMENT FOR ANIMAL
CRUELTY BECAUSE THERE IS A STATE
A STATE STATUE FOR PROHIBITING
THE SAME CONDUCT. IN A
IN A SENSE, WE DON'T HAVE TO
HAVE ANY OF THESE CRIMES IF WE
DON'T WANT TO. BUT IF
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE THEM, THEYE
LARGELY -- I GUESS IT'S OUR
ADVICE THAT THEY BE THE SAME FOR
FOR PURPOSES OF CONSISTENCY SUCH
SUCH THAT COURT DECISIONS
AFFECTING SOME OF THOSE LAWS
THAT THEY WILL APPLY TO OUR
ORDINANCE AS WELL. IN
TERMS OF YOUR SPECIFIC QUESTIONN
ONE IS PROBABLY A DISCRETIONARY
LAW BECAUSE WE DON'T -- AND IT S
-- ALLOWS ANIMAL CONTROL TO NOT
RETURN AN ANIMAL TO AN OWNER IF
THAT CONCERN IS CONVICTED OF A
ABUSING AN ANIMAL. AND
AND DEALING WITH ANIMAL CONTROL
IN CASES BELIEVED IN DOING THAT,
THAT, AND FOR INSTANCE, SECTIONE
THAT I TALKED ABOUT WHICH COURT
MIGHT HAVE JURIES DECISION OVER
AN ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATION THT
VIOLATES AN ORDER, THAT ISN'T
FOUND IN STATE LAW, EITHER.
THAT'S IN A SENSE DISCRETIONARY.
AND THAT LARGELY AROSE FROM A
SERIES OF DISCUSSIONS WE HAD IN
OUR OFFICE HOW WE WOULD GO ABOUT
GO ABOUT PROSECUTING A CRIME
LIKE THAT. AGAIN,
PEOPLE TEND TO MOVE AROUND A LOT
LOT OR BE GONE FROM SEATTLE,
OCCASIONALLY, AND THERE IS AN Y
TO VIOLATE THE ORDER REMOTELY.
WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE IF THAT
HAPPENS THAT SEATTLE WOULD HAVE
JURISDICTION TO DEAL WITH THE V.
SOME OF THE OTHERS AGAIN, WE DOT
HAVE TO HAVE THE CRIME BUT IF WE
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE THE CRIMES,
THE CRIMES, THEY NEED THE -- THE
THE PUNISHMENT NEEDS TO BE THE E
AS STATE LAW.
>> THANK YOU. IN THE
BULLETED LIST, IT'S THE CHANGES
TO SECTION ONE AND SECTION THREE
THREE THAT ARE DISCRETIONARY BUT
DISCRETIONARY BUT ADVISED FOR GD
CAUSE. THE OTHER ITEMS
ITEMS ARE ITEMS THAT ARE ADVISEO
HAVE CONSISTENCY AND PREVENT
COMPLICATIONS WITH STATE LAW?
>> CORRECT.
>> ANY COMMENTS FROM COUNCILMEM?
LOOKING FOR RAISED HANDS.
THANK YOU. NOT SEEING
ANY, APPRECIATE YOU MAKING SOMEE
SO WE CAN GET THIS BEFORE FULL
COUNCIL BEFORE WE CLOSE UP SHOP
ON THE COMMITTEE FOR THE BUDGET.
I UNDERSTAND THAT WE DO NEED TO
TAKE ACTION ON THIS IN ANOTHER
BILL THAT WE ARE SENDING DIRECTY
TO FULL COUNCIL ON THE TRAFFIC
CODE BY THE END OF THE YEAR,
AND SO NOT SEEING OR HEARING ANL
QUESTIONS, I MOVE COUNCIL BILL .
IS THERE A SECOND?

YOUR REQUEST TO GET THIS IN FROT
OF COMMITTEE. AGAIN,
IT'S ANOTHER ONE OF THE FEATURET
WE NEED TO MOVE THROUGH IN AN
EFFICIENT AND EXPEDITED MANNER
TO ENSURE THE DELIVERY OF SERVI.
CAN YOU EXPLAIN -- YOU MAY HAVE
MENTIONED THIS AND I DIDN'T CATH
IT. WHAT IS THE SOURCE
SOURCE OF THE GRANT FUNDS?
>> THE WASHINGTON LEGISLATURE, I
I BELIEVE, PROVIDED SOME GRANT
MONEY TO THE COURT SYSTEM STATE,
AND WE APPLIED FOR THE GRANT
THROUGH THE ADMINISTRATIVE
OFFICE OF THE COURTS AND
RECEIVED THE GRANT.
IT'S A STATE WIDE COURT FUNDING
MANDATE FROM THE LEGISLATURE.
>> GOT IT. SO THE
STATE PROVIDES THE FUNDS TO
COURTS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE
STATE WITH THE GOAL OF -- IT'S A
IT'S A POLICY GOAL BEHIND IT
WHICH IS TO DEVELOP THE THERAPEC
COURT AND MAKE SURE THEY ARE RU.
>> EXACTLY. EXACTLY.
>> GIVEN THAT THESE ARE BOTH
PILOT PROJECTS, YOU CAN JUST TAK
A BIT ABOUT HOW THEY WILL BE
EVALUATED FOR THEIR SUCCESS OR S
LEARNED?
>> WELL, ONE OF THE POSITIONS IS
IS A POSITION THAT RELATES TO
TRYING TO DEVELOP THE DATA ITS.
I THINK -- I AM NOT EXACTLY SURE
SURE HOW TO ANSWER THE QUESTION.
I THINK A LOT IS HOW THEY PLAY
OUT ON THE GROUND, WORKING WITH
THE THERAPEUTIC COURT SPECIFICAY
AND HOW THIS RESPECTS THE
DIFFERENT COURTS AS WELL AS THE
DATA THEY WILL GATHER FROM THE D
TO HELP US TO UNDERSTAND THE
COURT AND THEY WILL BE
EVALUATING, ONE F THERE IS AN
EFFECTIVE USE TO HAVE THE COORD?
IS IT EFFECTIVE IN THE COURTROOM
COURTROOM AND ALSO WILL THEY
HELP US TO GET THE DATA?
AND THIS IS BASICALLY WORKING
WITH THE YWCA PARTNERSHIP, AND
WE'LL BE TALKING WITH THE Y TO
SEE HOW THIS -- I MEAN, THE GOAL
GOAL OF THE COMMUNITY OF JUSTICE
JUSTICE NAVIGATOR IS TO FOLLOW
UP AFTER SOMEONE'S DONE IN
COMMUNITY COURT TO HELP KEEP
THEM ON TRACK. THEY
ARE NO LONGER INVOLVED IN THE
COURT DIRECTLY BUT A NAVIGATOR
REACHING OUT TO FACILITATE THE
QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS THEY MIGHE
AFTER THEY HAVE LEFT THE COURT
SYSTEM, AND IT'S IMPORTANT TO E
PEOPLE TAKE ADVANTAGE THAT AND
MAKING HEADWAY IN KEEPING PEOPLE
IN KEEPING PEOPLE IN THE
SERVICES THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO
TRYING TO ACCESS AND THINGS LIKE
LIKE THAT. IT'S GOING
TO BE PRETTY MUCH LIKE SEEING HW
IT WORKS ON THE GROUND.
>> SURE. IT'S NOT
CLEAR TO ME WHETHER OR NOT THE E
HAS DETERMINED THAT THE PROJECTS
PROJECTS RECEIVING THE AWARDS
WILL BE CONSIDERED PILOT
PROJECTS UNTIL THERE IS AN
EVALUATION OR IF IT'S THE
MUNICIPAL COURT WHO IS
DETERMINING THESE ARE PRIVATE
PROJECTS?
>> BASICALLY THE STATE WILL NOT
BE ANALYZE WHAT DOES WE ARE DOI.
THEY OFFERED MONEY TO THE
THERAPEUTIC COURTS ACROSS THE
STATE AND OFFERED MONEY FOR COUS
TO CREATE THERAPEUTIC COURTS.
SOW SO YOU MIGHT BE
ASKING TO CREATE A COURT OR SUP.
AND IT'S UP TO US IF TO BRING IT
IT BACK TO COUNCIL FOR THE PITCH
PITCH TO MAKE IT SUCCESSFUL OR
NOT, AND WE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS
SUCCESSFUL WE WOULD NOT BE
FOLLOWING UP. BUT THE
AOC, THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE
OF THE COURT, NOT AOC IN
WASHINGTON D.C., THEY WOULD BE G
IT. AND THE STORY IS A
A CITY WIDE NET TO HELP DEVELOP
OR EXPAND THE COMMUNITY OR THERC
COURTS. SO I AM NOT
AWARE OF SPECIFIC ANALYSIS OF OR
SPECIFIC USES OF THE GRANTS.
>> SO WE WILL HAVE AT
OPPORTUNITY TO WORK TOGETHER TO
DETERMINE HOW TO EVALUATE THE
SUCCESS OF THE PILOT PROGRAMS?
>> EXACTLY. YES.
THANK YOU.
>> CAN YOU TALK TO WHETHER OR
NOT THE COURT IS COMMITTING
OTHER NON-GRANT DOLLARS TO THES?
>> AT THIS POINT IN TIME, I
DON'T BELIEVE WE ARE COMMITTING
ANOTHER FUNDS TO IT. I
I THINK AGAIN WE WANT TO SEE HOW
HOW THEY ARE WORKING, AND I
THINK IF WHAT WE THINK WILL BE L
PROVES TO BE HELPFUL BEFORE WE
DECIDE WHETHER TO APPLY ADDITIOL
FUNDS.
>> GREAT.
OKAY. THANK YOU.
COUNCILMEMBERS, ANY OTHER QUEST?
NOT SEEING ANY RAISED HANDS.
ANY OTHER RAISED HANDS?
LET'S WORK TO -- LET'S SEE.
I LOST MY -- ITEM NUMBER FIVE.
I WILL, IN CAN AS THAT I MOVE
COUNCIL BILL 120242.
IS THERE A SECOND?
>> SECOND.
>> THANK YOU.
AND THE BILL IS BEFORE COMMITTE.
ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM CO?
I AM NOT SEEING ANY.
OH, COUNCILMEMBER NELSON?
>> I JUST THINK IT'S -- I DON'T
SEE ANY DOWNSIDE EXCEPT IN THE .
I'VE SEEN HOW WELL THE
THERAPEUTIC COURTS WORK.
ALSO ON LOOKING FOR ALTERNATIVE.
SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR
BRINGING THIS HOME.
>>
>> THANK YOU. OR YOU'E
WELCOME.
>> MUCH APPRECIATED ALL AROUND.
SO WITH THAT, WILL THE CLERK
PLEASE CALL THE ROLL.
>> COUNCILMEMBER MOSQUEDA?
>> AYE.
>> COUNCILMEMBER
NELSON?
>> AEY.
>> COUNCILMEMBER PEDERSEN?
>> AYE.
>> VICE CHAIR LEWIS?
>> YES.
>> CHAIR HERBOLD?
>> YES.
>> THE MOTION CARRIES AND THE
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT THE
COUNCIL BILL PASSED AND MOVED TE
OCTOBER 4 COUPLE MEETING.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
HAVE A GREAT AFTERNOON OR GREAT.
THANKS. THE NEXT ITEM
IS NUMBER 7. WILL THE
CLERK PLEASE READ THE ITEM?
>> THE PAYUP, WORKER DISCUSSION
OF DEACTIVATION AND BACKGROUND
CHECKS, BRIEFING AND DISCUSSION0
MINUTES.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND IF YOU
YOU COULD PLEASE JOIN US AT THEL
TABLE? I WILL GIVE BACK GROUND.
IN MAY, THE COUNCIL UNANIMOUSLY
PASSED THE FIRST PAYUP BILL, THE
THE LEGISLATION, THE FIRST OF
ITS KIND WILL GUARANTEE THAT
DELIVERY DRIVERS WILL RECEIVE
MINIMUM WAGE AND RECEIVE
TRANSPARENCY AND FLEXIBILITY.
WE KNOW THIS IS ONE OF THE
FASTEST-GROWING SECTORS OF THE
COMMUNITY WITH MORE PEOPLE
TURNING TO THIS WORK.
THE PASSAGE OF THIS LEGISLATION
IN MAY WILL HELP TENS OF
THOUSANDS OF DELIVERY WORKERS
MAKE ENDS MEET AND MAINTAIN FLE.
THE FIRST BILL DOES NOT ADDRESS
THE PRACTICE OF DEACTIVATION OR
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PREVENTING
FOLKS FROM WORKING THESE JOBS
BASED ON INFORMATION THAT CAME
UP IN THE COURSE OF THE JOB THAT
JOB THAT MAY BE DISPUTED.
THERE IS ALSO THE ISSUE OF
PEOPLE BEING PROHIBITED FROM
WORKING THEM DUE TO BACKGROUND .
THEY RELY ON A LOT OF AUTOMATIO.
WE HAVE HEARD STORIES FROM SOME
WORKERS PREVENTED IN ACCESSING
THIS WORK BECAUSE OF BACKGROUND
CHECKS OR INFORMATION PROVIDED,
AGAIN, OFTEN AUTOMATED
INFORMATION ON THE COURSE OF THE
THE JOB RESULTING IN
DEACTIVATION. IN SOME
CASES, UPON INVESTIGATION, THE N
IN TO THE PREACT CORRECT AND THN
THAT LED TO THE DEACTIVATION WAT
ACCURATE. SO THEY ARE
SOMETIMES DEACTIVATED WITHOUT KG
WHY, AND THE WORKERS ALSO NEED
PROTECTION IN THE WORK THAT THE
COMPANIES THEMSELVES RELY ON,
AND WE ARE HERE TO LEARN ABOUT
THE EXPERIENCES AND THE PROCESS
OF DEVELOPING A FAIR AND
TRANSPARENT PROCESS FOR THE
DEACTIVATION AND WE WILL HEAR
FROM TWO DRIVER ORGANIZATIONS
AND WORKERS FROM THE ORGANIZATIS
ABOUT THE ISSUES. WITH
WITH THAT, I'LL TURN IT OVER TO
MICHAEL WOLFE AND DANIELLE
ALVARADO ABOUT THEIR WORK.
>> THANK YOU. MY NAME
IS DANIELLE ALVARADO, AND I AMH
WORKING WASHINGTON.
YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE BEEN
WORKING TO TRANSPORT GIG ECONOM.
EARLIER THIS SUMMER, COUNCIL
DEMONSTRATED TREMENDOUS
LEADERSHIP FOR PASSING THE
MINIMUM COMPENSATION ORDINANCE.
NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.
DEACTIVATION IS A SERIOUS ISSUE
FOR WORKERS ACROSS ALL APPS.
IT'S ONE OF THE MAJOR WAYS THAT
THE PLATFORMS EXERCISE CONTROL
OVER WORKERS AND CREATES MASSIVE
CREATES MASSIVE INSTABILITY FORS
AND THEIR FAMILIES.
RIGHT NOW, WORKERS ARE ROUTINELD
WITH NO WARNING AND IMMEDIATELY
LOSING ACCESS TO THEIR ENTIRE
SOURCE OF INCOME. IT
TAKES PLACE PLACE THROUGH THE
ALGORITHM SYSTEM WITH NO HUMAN
OVERSIGHT AND WORKERS RECEIVE NO
RECEIVE NO INFORMATION FROM THE
PLATFORM, SOMETIMES, A MESSAGE
THAT SIMPLY SAYS YOU VIOLATED
THE TERMS OF SERVICE.
NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.
WHEN WORKERS DO GET INFORMATION
IT'S AN OFTEN UNWARRANTED OR
JUST PLAIN WRONG BASIS FOR THE .
SOME OF THE REASONS WORKERS WERD
INCLUDE SELFIES NOT LOOK ENOUGH
LIKE THE PHOTO ON RECORD AND
UNINVESTIGATED COMPLAINTS NOT FG
ABOVE THE PLATFORM AND NOT
SEASONING ENOUGH OF THE JOBS
SENT TO THEM BY THE PLATFORM,
AND AGAIN, OUR EXPERIENCE, A BIG
BIG PART OF WHAT IS GOING ON
WITH DEACTIVATION IS A PROBLEM
WITH THE RELIANCE ON THE
ALGORITHMS THAT LEAD TO
THOUSANDS OF WORKERS LOSING
THEIR JOB, AND ONCE
DEACTIVATED, WORKERS HAVE LITTLE
WORKERS HAVE LITTLE OPTIONS TO .
MOST SEND WORKERS TO AN
AUTOMATED FORM OR GENERIC EMAIL
AND AS CARMEN WILL SHARE IT
TAKES AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF
EFFORT TO TALK TO A PERSON.
SOME WORKERS ARE SIMPLY TOLD BY
SUPPORT THEY CAN'T DISCUSS THE
DETAILS OF THEIR DECISION.
WHEN A REVIEW TAKES PLACE, IT'S
OFTEN CLEAR THAT THE
DEACTIVATION WAS IN ERROR.
A REVIEW OR A RESPONSE RARE AND
AT IS THAT POINT MANY WORKERS
HAVE GIVEN UP, OVERWHELMED BY AE
PROCESS COMPLETELY CONTROLLED BE
PLATFORM. BUT THE GOOD
GOOD NEWS IS WORKERS KNOW WHAT S
TO CHANGE, AN EFFECTIVE
DEACTIVATION POLICY INDUSTRY
WIDE AND REQUIRE APP WORKERS
ABOUT WHY THEY WERE DEACTIVATED;
DEACTIVATED; REQUIRE THAT APPS
HAVE INTERNAL APPEALS SYSTEM ANE
RESPONSES TO WORKER APPEALS WITH
WITH EVIDENCE TO THE DEACTIVATI.
AND IT WOULD FOCUS ON INSURING
THAT COMPANIES WOULD FOCUS ON
THE DEACTIVATION RATHER THAN
RELYING ON INDIVIDUAL
ENFORCEMENT TO MANAGE INDIVIDUA.
EACH OF THOSE CORE PIECES WERE
DISCUSSED IN GREAT DETAILS IN
THE SESSIONS LAST YEAR AND WITHT
FOUNDATION WE ARE IN A GOOD
POSITION TO MOVE THIS POLICY FO.
IT'S CRITICAL TO DO SO.
THE ISSUE IS URGENT FOR ALL THE
GIG WORKERS IN SEATTLE
STRUGGLING TO MAKE ENDS MEET.
COUNCIL HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO
ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH A SIMPLE
SIMPLE UNIVERSAL POLICY THAT CRS
LONG OVERDUE ACCOUNTABILITY FORE
PLATFORM. THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
>> GO AHEAD.
>> HELLO. MY NAME IS .
I'M A GIG WORKER IN SEATTLE AND
A MEMBER OF THE PAYUP CAMPAIGN.
I STARTED DOING THE GIG WORK
FOUR YEARS AGO AFTER A BACK
INJURY LEFT ME PARTIALLY DISABL.
FOR FOUR YEARS I HAVE WORKED
FULL-TIME FOR GRUBHUB EVEN
THOUGH I AM PARTIALLY DISABLED .
AUGUST 8, I WAS DEACTIVATED.
I HAD A RATING IN THE HIGH 90s
AND WAS IN GOOD STANDING N MID ,
GRUBHUB DECIDED TO SEIZE MORE
PROFITS FROM THE COMPANY BY
ISSUING DRIVERS MORE STAFF
ORDERS, TWO ORDERS FROM THE SAMT
OR NEARBY RESTAURANTS TO BE
DELIVERED TO ADDRESSS THAT ARE
NEAR EACH OTHER.
HOWEVER, AT THE TIME THAT WAS
IMPLEMENTED, THE SYSTEM HAD NOT
LEARNED THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY O
DO THIS. THE ORDER
PICK UP AND DROP OFFS WERE NOT R
EACH OTHER AND NOT ON THE SAME
ROUTE OR IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS.
I AM WILLING AND CAPABLE OF
WORKING TWO ORDERS SIMULTANEOUS.
HOWEVER, I CANNOT BE IN TWO
DIFFERENT PLACES AT THE SAME
TIME AND DRIVE IN TWO DIFFERENTS
AT THE SAME TIME. I
RECEIVED WARNINGS AND PENALTIES,
AND THEY CAME VIOLATIONS.
IN LESS THAN SIX WEEKS, I RACKED
RACKED UP THREE VIOLATIONS AND
WAS DEACTIVATED. I
CALLED DRIVER SUPPORT SEVERAL
TIMES AND SENT EMAILS.
AND SENT EMAILS.
DRIVER SUPPORT WAS NOT VERY
SUPPORTIVE AND MY EMAILS
DISAPPEARED INTO THE OBLIVION.
THE DEACTIVATION EMAIL HAD A
SPACE WHERE I COULD -- OH, NEXT.
I'M SORRY. OKAY.
THE DEACTIVATION EMAIL HAS
INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO HAVE SEND
SEND AN APPEAL BUT THE APPEAL
EMAIL ADDRESS WAS NO LONGER IN .
THE PULL-DOWN MENUS ON THE
DRIVER ONLINE SUPPORT, NONE OF
THE CATEGORIES MATCHED WHAT MY N
WAS. THE CLOSEST I
COULD FIND WAS DEACTIVATION IN
CALIFORNIA ONLY AND SENT THE APL
THERE. AND A FEW DAYS
LATER I RECEIVED AN EMAIL SHOWIG
THAT I WAS DEACTIVATED DUE TO
ADVERSE BEHAVIOR AND ACTIVITY
THAT NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE DEY
EXPERIENCE ACROSS THE PLATFORM.
THE THREAT OF DEACTIVATION ALWAS
LURKING -- NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE.
THE THREAT OF DEACTIVATION IS
ALWAYS LURKING WHEN WORKING AS A
A GIG WORKER. I HAD
DOOR DASH ALREADY SET UP IN CASE
CASE THE WORST HAPPENED WITH GRB
SO I COULD MOVE ON TO THE DOOR
DASH PLATFORM. I
MISSED A FEW DAYS OF PAY THAT
SENT MY PRECARIOUS FINANCIAL
SITUATION INTO A DOWNWARD SPIRAL
SPIRAL THAT I AM TRYING TO CLIMB
CLIMB OUT OF THIS. THE
THE TERM OF IRRESPONSIBILITY
THAT AN EMPLOYER WOULD HAVE FOR
AN EMPLOYEE, TREATING GIG WORKES
AS DISPOSABLE.
INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS HAVE TH.
HAVE THE INDEPENDENCE.
OUR IMMEDIATE SUPERVISOR CANNOT
BE REASONED WITH OR IGNORED.
WITH THE DEACTIVATION POLICY IN
PLACE A HUMAN WOULD HAVE TO
REVIEW AND RESPOND TO DEACTIVATN
GENERATED BY THE SYSTEM AND
REVIEW AND RESPOND TO ANY APPEAL
APPEAL LETTERS. I HAVE
HAVE NO DOUBT ONCE MY -- ONCE ML
-- WILL BE -- WOULD BE -- I HAVE
HAVE NO DOUBT ONCE REVIEWED BY A
A PERSON, I WILL BE REACTIVATED.
IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
GIG COMPANIES TO CREATE A
FUNCTIONAL PROCESS WITH HUMAN RW
AND MEANINGFUL APPEAL PROCEDURE
BEFORE DEACTIVATING A DRIVER.
THE PAYUP POLICY WOULD NOT
REQUIRE AN INVESTIGATION OF THE
DEACTIVATION BY THE CITY.
INSTEAD, IT WOULD CREATE AN
INCENTIVE TO SET UP THEIR OWNER
PERSON WITH A PERSON OR TWO PEOE
MAKING THE FINAL DEACTIVATION.
WITH MORE AND MORE COMPANIES
CONVERTING EMPLOYEES INTO
INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS, THE GIY
NEEDS REGULATIONS AND ECONOMY TO
TO ENSURE GIG WORKERS SOME STAB.
>> THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR ES
WITH US.
>> HI.
MY NAME IS JAMES. I
DON'T GO BY MISTER OR SIR.
PEOPLE QUESTION ME ON THAT, AND
I WOULD SAY TO THEM, WHAT IS
MORE RESPECT FUL IS YOU CALLING
WHAT YOU WANT TO CALL ME.
WITH THAT BEING SAID, I AM NOT .
I'M AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR SIX
YEARS NOW. I PAY THE
PLATFORM TO PROVIDE A SERVICE FR
ME BY CONNECT ME WITH DELIVERY
OPTIONS OR PEOPLE. SO
I DON'T REPORT TO ANYBODY.
NOW, THERE ARE GUIDELINES THAT I
I HAVE TO GO BY IN ORDER TO USE
THE PLATFORMS THAT WILL PREVENT
ME FROM GETTING DEACTIVATED,
TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY WHICH
WHICH I AGREE TO. I
HAVE BEEN DEACTIVATED FOR A
COUPLE OF HOURS. I WAS
WAS ABLE TO CONTACT THEM AND
TALK THROUGH THE PROCESS OF WHAD
HAPPENED. I ALSO FIND
IF SOMETHING IS NOT FROM A TO B,
TO B, ANYTHING OUT OF THE
ORDINARY HAPPENS IN THE DELIVER,
I REPORT DID IMMEDIATELY AND IT
PREVENTS ME FROM BEING DEACTIVA.
I THINK THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH
WITH THE SYSTEM IS THEY DON'T
HAVE PEOPLE WHO DO THIS ON THE E
AT THE TABLE TO TALK ABOUT WHAT
IS GOING ON BECAUSE A LOT OF THS
CAN BE PREVENTED. I
THINK A LOT OF TIMES, THERE AREY
SOME OTHER INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS WHO SAY THEY DON'T
KNOW WHY THEY WERE DEACTIVATED N
THEY ACTUALLY DO. A
LOT OF FACT FINDING NEEDS TO BE
INVOLVED IN ALL THE DECISION
MAKING BECAUSE EACH CASE IS DIF.
EACH IS DEACTIVATED DIFFERENT.
I AGREE WITH THE BACKGROUND
CHECK BECAUSE I DO WANT TO BE S.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE
PERSON WHO IS DELIVERING OR
PICKING ME UP IS LEGIT.
ANYONE WHO COMES IN MY VEHICLE,
I WOULD SAY CHECK THE LICENSE
PLATE AND MAKE SURE THIS IS THE
VEHICLE THAT YOU WANT.
YOU WANT. I WOULD
CHECK NAMES. THERE
NEEDS TO BE MORE TRANSPARENCY
WITH THE COMPANIES ON IF YOU DO
THIS, YOU WILL BE DEACTIVATED.
AND THEY NEED TO SEND OUT A WAR.
HEY, YOU HAVE THIS SCORE.
YOU ARE ON THE VERGE OF BEING
DEACTIVATED IF YOUR BEHAVIOR
DOESN'T CHANGE. THERE
SHOULD BE MORE INFORMATION
GIVING, WARNING THEM AHEAD OF
TIME THAT YOU ARE ON THE VERGE F
BEING DEACTIVATED.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
>> AND JUST I AM MICHAEL WOLFE,
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF DRIVE
FORWARD, AND I USE THE HIM
PRONOUNCES. I WANT TO
SAY THERE IS A LOT OF BROAD AGRT
BETWEEN THE DRIVERS AND
INDEPENDENT WORKER COMMUNITY INN
THE BACK GROUND CHECKS AND DEACN
IN THAT WE DON'T FEEL THE
COMPANIES ARE AS TRANSPARENT AS
THEY COULD BE IN THEIR COMMUNIC.
I UNDERSTAND TALKING WITH
VICTIMS'S RIGHTS GROUPS THAT
SOMETIMES, IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO
BE AS TRANSPARENT AS ONE WOULD .
BUT BEING DEACTIVATED ON AN
EMAIL IS SOMETHING THAT THE
COMPANIES CAN PRODUCE.
PRODUCE. I DO THINK TT
THERE DOES NEED TO BE WITH ANY
DEACTIVATION A CLEARLY
COMMUNICATED APPEALS PROCESS
WITH A POINT OF CONTACT AND A
TEAM OF PEOPLE HIRED TO MAKE
DECISIONS ON A CASE BY CASE BAS.
ASSUMING THAT THE APPEAL DOES
NOT GO IN THE DRIVER'S FAVOR, I
THINK WITH THE DENIAL, THERE SHD
BE CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS IN FILING
FOR ARBITRATION AND ALL OF THE
TERMS OF SERVICE DO HAVE ARBITRN
CLAUSES IN THEM, WHICH IS
ANOTHER AVENUE FOR THE WORKERS
TO TAKE ON. AS FAR AS
BACKGROUND CHECKS, I THINK -- IS
GOING THROUGH UBER'S WEBSITE THE
THE OTHER DAY. AND THY
ALL SAY OH, YOU HAVE TO PASS AD
CHECK BUT THEY DON'T SAY WHAT
FAILS A BACKGROUND CHECK.
HAVING THAT INFORMATION, WHERE
IF YOU HAVE THESE THINGS THAT
WILL SHOW UP ON YOUR BACKGROUND,
IT WILL LIKELY FAIL.
HAVING THAT INFORMATION PUBLIC
AND AVAILABILITY WOULD BE GREAT.
AS FAR AS WHAT SHOULD BE
SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T PASS A
BACKGROUND CHECK, I THINK THE LE
IN HOUSE BILL 2076, SECTION 23
THAT JUST PASSED THE LEGISLATURE
LEGISLATURE LAST SESSION IS A
GOOD BASIS TO LOOK AT.
LOOK AT. AND THAT'S
THE COMPANY THAT AT LEAST THE RE
SHARE COMPANIES AGREED TO.
SO WITH THAT, I WANT TO SAY THAT
THAT WE SHOULD BE LOOK AT
REQUIRING COMPANIES TO HAVE MORY
AND REQUIRING COMPANIES TO HAVE
AN APPEALS PROCESS INTERNALLY
AND HOW WORKERS CAN ACCESS ARBI.
SO THAT WOULD BE MY STATEMENT.
I WANT TO ACTUALLY MENTION ONE
OTHER THING HERE SINCE I'M HERE
AND THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE ISSE
OF DRIVER SAFETY. AND
TWO WEEKS AGO, THERE WAS A
SENSELESS KILLING OF A RIDE
SHARE DRIVER IN DOWNTOWN SEATTLE
OF GUN VIOLENCE. HE
LEFT BEHIND A WIFE AND SIX CHIL.
IT'S NOT LOST ON ME THAT WE ARE
HERE AT THE PUBLIC SAFETY
COMMITTEE, AND, YOU KNOW, WHILS
DEACTIVATIONS AND BACKGROUND
CHECKS IS NECESSARY, I WOULD ASK
ASK THE COMMITTEE TO HAVE
ANOTHER DISCUSSION LIKE THIS ON
HOW THE CITY WOULD LIKE TO ADDRS
INCREASED GUN VIOLENCE AND THE
SAFETY OF INDEPENDENT
CONTRACTORS WORKING IN SEATTLE.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU. SO AS IT
IT RELATES TO THE TOPIC BEFORE
US TODAY, I WANT TO JUST GET A
SENSE FROM BOTH OF THESE WORKER
ORGANIZATIONS THAT WE HAVE
BEFORE US, AND I DON'T THINK THE
THE DISPUTE IS WITH THE TERM WO.
I THINK THE DISPUTE IS WHETHER
OR NOT THE WORKERS ARE
INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS ARE WOR,
EMPLOYEES. I HOPE WE
AGREE THAT YOU ARE A WORKER, AND
AND YOU MAY NOT CONSIDER YOURSEF
AN EMPLOYEE ALTHOUGH THAT ALSO
IS A MATTER OF A LOT OF CONVERS.
SO DO WE FEEL LIKE -- IT SOUNDS
LIKE THERE IS SOME AGREEMENT ON
THE PROBLEM STATEMENT.
PROBLEM STATEMENT. HAS
HAS YOUR ORGANIZATION HAD
CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THE PATH
FORWARD FOR A SOLUTION?
>> I WOULD SAY THAT, YOU KNOW,
WE CERTAINLY TALK ABOUT IT
AMONGST OUR MEMBERS AND HAD DISN
AS TO WHAT OUR MEMBERS WOULD
LIKE TO SEE IN THESE KINDS OF
ISSUES, AND, YOU KNOW, AS I SAI,
IS BROAD AGREEMENT THAT THE
COMPANIES NEED MORE TRANSPARENCY
TRANSPARENCY AND WHY THEY ARE
DEACTIVATING SOMEONE, AND IF
IT'S BECAUSE OF CUSTOMER
COMPLAINTS OR THERE IS A FAILED
BACKGROUND CHECK OR, YOU KNOW, A
KNOW, A FAILED MOTOR VEHICLE RES
CHECK. THOSE THINGS
HAVE TO BE CLEARLY COMMUNICATED.
I UNDERSTAND THERE WILL PROBABLY
PROBABLY BE A LINE DRAWN IF THE
COMPLAINTS AGAINST THE CUSTOMER
ARE INVOLVED, A SEXUAL ASSAULT R
A SEXUAL HARASSMENT AS A WAY TO
PROTECT THE VICTIMS.
BUT, YOU KNOW, BEYOND THAT AND
OTHER CASES SIMILAR TO THAT, I
THINK HAVING A CLEAR REASON STAD
AS OPPOSED TO HEY, YOU JUST
VIOLATED OUR TERMS OF SERVICE.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT TELL US
WHICH TERM OF SERVICE
>> AND I CAN ADD, IN ADDITION TO
TO THE STAKEHOLDER AND DEALING
WITH OUR RESPECTIVE MEMBERS AND
IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS
AGREEMENT WITH THE ISSUES TO BE
ADDRESSED. I KNOW IT'S
IT'S A PRIORITY FOR OUR
ADVANTAGE OF THE WINDOW THIS
FALL TO FURTHER CLARIFY THE POIS
OF AGREEMENT AND HOW CAN WE
IDENTIFY, YOU KNOW, ADDITIONAL
PARTICULARS ABOUT THE POLICY TOG
TO DISCUSSIONS WITH THE COUNCIL
AND SUPPORT MOVING FORWARD WHENU
ARE ALL LESS OCCUPIED WITH THE .
>> THANK YOU. YES.
THE BUDGET GRACE IS ALSO, AS YOU
YOU SAY, A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY
OPPORTUNITY FOR EXTERNAL
STAKEHOLDERS TO WORK TO GET
ALIGNMENT AND AGREEMENT ON
POLICY THAT WE CAN LOOK TO TAKE
UP AFTER THAT. YES?
>> MY GRANDPARENTS WERE MARRIED
FOR OVER 50 YEARS. I
ASKED MY GRANDFATHER HOW DID
THAT WORK AND I FOUND MYSELF
SITTING DOWN FOR A LONG EXPLANA.
HE SAID I TALKED SOME, AND I
LISTENED SOME, AND THAT'S WHAT
NEEDS TO HELP HERE. WE
WE NEED TO GET THE PEOPLE
TOGETHER AND DO OLD FASHIONED C.
>> THANK YOU.
DANIELLE, I WAS WONDERING IF YOU
YOU COULD JUST SAY A COUPLE
WORDS ABOUT WHAT YOU WERE
THINKING WHEN IT COMES TO
ENFORCEMENT AND THE, YOU KNOW, R
THE PNC LEGISLATION, WE SAW
LARGE, VERY LARGE NUMBERS OF
FILINGS, THAT SOME OF THEM TURNO
LEGISLATION. SOME OF
THEM DON'T. BUT I
THINK IF WE WERE TO SEE THAT
SAME VOLUME THAT WE SEE COMING
OUT OF ENFORCEMENT OF THIS LEGIN
WOULD BE A REAL CHALLENGE.
I THOUGHT I HEARD YOU SAY THAT
YOU DID NOT BELIEVE THAT THESE D
ALL -- THAT THERE WOULD BE A
LARGE NUMBER FOR DEACTIVATION A.
>> YEAH. THANK YOU FOR
FOR THE QUESTION. WE
TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY THAT THE
POLICIES WE DEVELOP HAVE A
PATHWAY TO BE ENFORCED AND OUR S
WHETHER PRIVATE ENFORCEMENT HAVE
HAVE WHAT THEY NEED TO ENFORCE
THE LABOR STANDARDS.
LIKE WE SAID, THROUGH OUR
ORGANIZING, SOME OF THE ISSUES
THAT BOTH OF OUR ORGANIZATIONS
HAVE FLAG SIDE TRENDS IN
DEACTIVATION THAT I REALLY THINN
BE ADDRESSED WITH THE FRAMEWORK
ORIENTED TOWARDS PROACTIVE
POLICY SETTING BY THE PLATFORMS.
I THINK SOME OF THE THINGS THAT
WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT, OUR GOAL
IS TO DEVELOP A FRAMEWORK WHERE
THAT IS SET UP AT THE FRONT END
SO WE ARE NOT RELYING ON
RESOLVING THE PROBLEMS ON THE BK
END. CERTAINLY, WE
HAVE OTHER PARTNERS WHO FOCUS ON
ON THIS AND WE HAVE HAD
CONVERSATIONS FOR LEARNING FROM
THE IMPLEMENTATION AND
UNDERSTANDING THAT IT'S RESOURCE
RESOURCE INCENTIVE AND THIS IS
FOR THE COMMUNITY THAT IS
GIG-ECONOMY BASED IN GENERAL ANN
FROM THAT AND HOW WE ARE
APPROACHING ENFORCEMENT TO BE
JUST AS IMPACTFUL IN A RESOURCES
WAY.
>> PERFECT.
THANK YOU, AND THAT'S A WAY TO
LOOK AT IT MOVING FORWARD.
>> DO YOU MIND, COUNCILMEMBERS,
IF I ADDRESS THAT ALSO?
FROM OUR ORGANIZATION
PERSPECTIVE, IT WOULD BE BEST DO
DO NOT GO DOWN THE ROAD OF THE N
CENTER IN PARTICULAR.
WE HAD MANY MEMBERS WHO WERE
DEACTIVATED ON THE RIDE SHARE
APP AND FILED APPEALS AND THE CE
US IS IT'S TAKING SOMEWHERE
BETWEEN EIGHT WEEKS TO EIGHT
MONTHS BEFORE THE RESOLUTIONS H.
AND FOR A LOT OF MEMBERS, THAT
IS TOO LONG AND THEY MOVED ON TO
TO OTHER EMPLOYMENT.
THAT IS NOT TO SAY THAT IT'S
GOOD OR BASS BUT FINDING A NEW
SOLUTION THAT PROBABLY IS LESS E
INTENSIVE AND MORE RESPONSIVE WD
BE GOOD.
>> THANK YOU ALL OF YOU.
COUNCILMEMBERS ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS BEFORE I JUST SAY A
COUPLE OF WORDS?
COUNCILMEMBER NELSON?
>> YOU MIGHT BE READY FOR THIS
BUT HAVE THEY HAVE STARTED THE
RULE-MAKE PROCESS ON PAYUP IN G?
>> YES. THEY HAVE NOTN
--
>> COUNCILMEMBER HERBOLD'S
OFFICE, THEY HAVE NOT STARTED
THAT YET BUT THEY WILL BE
STARTING THAT PROCESS IN, EXCUSE
EXCUSE ME, 2023. THE
ORDINANCE GOES INTO EFFECT IN JY
2024. SO THEY HAVE A
LITTLE OVER A YEAR TO CONDUCT
THAT RULE MAKING PROCESS.
>> THANK YOU.
>> WE'RE TALKING MAY.
RIGHT? OR EARLY JUNE.
SO IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE A LOT
LOT OF DETAILS OF THE
IMPLEMENTATIONS THAT NEED TO BE
PUT IN PLACE. THIS IS,
IS, YOU KNOW, DEACTIVATION OR ET
OF THE DEACTIVATION AND --
>> THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF ANY
LEGISLATION WE WOULD BE
CONSIDERING AS IT RELATES TOO DN
WOULD BE HARMONIZED WITH THE
EFFECTIVE DATA PAYUP.
WE WOULDN'T HAVE THIS
LEGISLATION WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
ABOUT NOW GOING INTO EFFECT
BEFORE THE WORK THAT THEY HAVE
TO DO TO DEVELOP THE RULES WHICX
MENTIONED. THEY HAVE L
YEAR. PAYUP DOES NOT
GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL 2024.
SO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF A BILL
THAT WE WOULD BE TALKING ABOUT
HERE WOULD BE HARMONIZED WITH T.
>> OKAY. THANK YOU.
>> SURE. ANY OTHER
COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS?
OR QUESTIONS? REALLY,
AGAIN, APPRECIATE FOLKS MAKING E
IN THEIR DAY TO COME AND TALK
WITH US ABOUT SORT OF WHAT THE
ISSUE IS THAT WE'RE TRYING TO
WORK TOGETHER TO ADDRESS.
AND I REALLY AM HEARTENED BY THP
OF YOUR TWO ORGANIZATIONS TO
HELP US SEE THE POLICY ISSUES.
AS FAR AS WHAT'S NEXT, I KNOW
THAT COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS AND I
ARE WORKING TOGETHER ON HOW TO
ADDRESS THE ISSUES OF
DEACTIVATION AND WORKING WITH
THE LABOR STANDARDS ON
DEVELOPING A POLICY FRAMEWORK
FOR LEGISLATION. WE
WILL, AS WE DID WITH PAYUP, WORK
WORK WITH STAKEHOLDERS WELL
PRIOR TO THE INTRODUCED INTRODUN
OF ANY LEGISLATION.
AND AS FAR AS A BIT MORE TEXT
OUR WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE, WE
WILL HAVE THE STAKEHOLDER MEETIS
FOLLOWING THE BUDGET PROCESS.
THAT'S IN DECEMBER, AND MANY
THANKS TO DRIVE FORWARD AND
WORKING WASHINGTON, AND ESPECIY
WITH JAMES AND CARMEN.
AND CARMEN. WE
APPRECIATE YOU SHARING THE EXPEE
WITH US. I KNOW THE
WORK YOU DO IS NOT ALWAYS EASY,D
I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING TIME OUT
OUT OF YOUR DAY, YOUR
INCOME-EARNING DAY TO SPEAK WITH
WITH US, AND WITH THAT, I HAVEG
FURTHER.
>> THANK
YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT. MOVING
ON, WILL THE CLERK PLEASE READ
IN AGENDA ITEM EIGHT?
>> COMMITEE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER
EIGHT, THE CITY ATTORNEY'S
OFFICE CRIMINAL DIVISION QUARTER
QUARTER 2, 2022 REPORT FOR
BRIEFING AND DISCUSSION, 20 MIN.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND WE ARE
ARE JOINED BY DEPARTMENT CITY
ATTORNEY SCOTT LINDSAY AND
PER-OLAF SWANSON FROM THE CITY
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
THANK YOU FOR COMING TO PRESENT
THE CITY QUARTER CITY ATTORNEY'E
REPORT AND THANK YOU FOR THE
BRIEFING EARLIER THAT TOUCHED ON
ON THE CHALLENGING DATA WORK IN.
I APPRECIATE YOU NEWLY DOING THS
ANALYSIS. THE ITEM IS
SCHEDULED FOR 20 MINUTES.
AND WE DO HAVE A HARD STOP SO
THAT THOSE OF US WHO ARE
INTENDING TO GO TO THE MAYOR
SPEECH ON BUDGET CAN DO SO.
TAKE IT AWAY.
>> THANK YOU.
ABSOLUTELY AND THANK YOU
COUNCILMEMBER HERBOLD AND ALL
THE COUNCILMEMBERS PRESENT.
I AM SCOTT LINDSAY, DEPUTY CITY
CITY ATTORNEY AND I AM JOINED BY
BY PER-OLAF SWANSON, AND WE ARED
TO PRESENT THE SECOND QUARTERLY
REPORT OF THE CITY ATTORNEY'S O.
IS THIS REPORT WHICH YOU WILL
SEE HERE AND WE WILL PROVIDE IN
SUMMARY FORM, I WILL PROVIDE A E
OF QUICK HIGHLIGHTS, REMARKS,
AND TURN IT OVER TO PER.
THIS PROVIDES A TRANSPARENCY
INTO THE CRIMINAL DIVISION AND
THE CRIMINAL NATURAL JUSTICE SY.
NEVER BEFORE IN THE HISTORY OF
THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE HAVE
WE PRESENTED THIS LEVEL OF DETAL
TO ALLOW THE SCRUTINY OF THE
PUBLIC AND THE SCRUTINY OF THE
COUNCIL AND THE EXECUTIVE IN.
AND WE ARE EXCITED TO SHARE IT
WITH YOU AND COUNCILMEMBER
HERBOLD, WE APPRECIATE YOU ALLOG
US TO ENGAGE WITH US ON THIS TO.
I WANT TO HIT ON TWO POINTS IN
THE REPORT AND PER WILL TOUCH O.
THE FIRST IS IN THE REPORT,
THERE IS A LOT OF DATA THAT
REALLY REPRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT
TURN AROUND OF THE CITY
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE UNDER CITY ATY
DAVISON IN THE LAST NINE MONTHS.
HER FOCUS IS FILING QUICKLY WITH
WITH THE CLOSE IN TIME POLICY
AND HAS MADE A REDUCTION IN TIME
TIME FROM ON AVERAGE 100 DAYS TO
TO ON AVERAGE, AT THIS POINT, TE
MEDIAN TIME IS THREE DAYS AS A
QUARTER TWO PERIOD. SO
SO THAT'S AN EXTRAORDINARY DROP.
THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE IS
MAKING FILING DECISIONS FASTER.
THAT IS HAVING A LOT OF SUBSEQUT
EFFECTS. IT'S ALLOWING
ALLOWING OUR IT WAS TO ENGAGE
AND GET BETTER RESULTS WITH VIC.
SO WE ARE SEEING FEWER CASES
THAT WE HAVE TO DECLINE LATER
BECAUSE VICTIMS REFUSE TO ENGAGE
ENGAGE OR WE CAN'T CONTACT THE
VICTIM AND IT HELPS TO KEEP THES
FRESHER SO WE ARE SEEING BETTER
RESULTS ANYTHING INTO THE
CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM.
THE REPORT REFLECTS THE REAL
CHALLENGES THAT YOU AND OUR CITY
CITY ARE GRAPPLING WITH ON A
DAILY BASIS, PARTICULARLY
CHALLENGES AROUND POLICE STAFFI.
WE STILL HAVE A RELATIVELY LOW
NUMBER OF REFERRALS DO THE CITY
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE FOR MISDEMEANR
CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. I
THINK THAT'S FAIR TO SAY IS A
REFLECTION OF THE STAFFING
SHORTAGE AS WELL AS THE PRIORITN
THAT THE POLICE HAVE TO FOCUS OY
AND VIOLENT CRIME AT THIS POINT.
SO YOU WILL SEE THE STATS
REFLECTED HERE. RIGHT
NOW, I'M GOING TO TURN OVER TO F
FOR EIGHT OR NINE MINUTES AND
THEN WE'LL HAVE 10 MINUTES FOR.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU, SCOTT. I
I WILL GIVE YOU A QUICK OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW OF WHAT'S IN THE REPORT
REPORT BUT I WANTED TO START
FIRST WITH A TALK ABOUT WHAT THE
THE CRIMINAL CASE MANAGEMENT IS.
THE WINDOW ON THE LEFT ARE ICONS
ICONS THAT IS A VERY OUTDATED
SYSTEM THAT WE ARE IN PROCESS OG
AND WE HOPE TO HAVE THE NEXT ONE
ONE IN PLACE NEXT YEAR, AND
THIS DOES NOT ALLOW TO LOOK AT S
LIKE A DEFENDANT AND VICTIM AT
THE SAME TIME WHICH ARE THINGS
THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE
CITY ATTORNEY DAVISON AND THE
CITY COUNCIL AS WELL.
AND THAT DEVELOPED SIMPLISTIC R.
>> YOU CAN SPEAK UP JUST A
LITTLE BIT? I'M SORRY.
>> HOPEFULLY THIS THING ISN'T HG
ISSUES. AT THE
DEPARTMENT, WE MADE A CONCERTED,
AND ESSENTIALLY, WE ARE ABLE TO
TO COMBINE THE DATABASE TO GET
THE MEANINGFUL DATA FOR THE
FORMULA TO DO SO, AND IT
RESULTED IN THE 50-PAGE
QUARTERLY REPORT THAT YOU CAN
FIND ON OUR WEBSITE OR IF YOU HE
A DIGITAL COPY. AND
THE HIGHLIGHTS, THE REFERRAL
COMING INTO THE DEPARTMENT FROM
SPD. YOU CAN SEE THERE
THERE WAS A DIP IN THE PANDEMIC
THAT HASN'T FULLY RECOVERED.
AS STAFF POINTED OUT, THIS IS
MOST LIKELY BECAUSE OF THE
STAFFING ISSUES BECAUSE OF THE E
POLICE DEPARTMENT'S CRIME
NUMBERS ARE ACTUALLY HIGHER THAY
WERE IN THE PAST. WE
WOULD EXPECT MORE COMMUNITY REF.
AND LOOKING AT WHAT OUR
DEPARTMENT DOES WITH THE
REFERRALS, THE GREEN BAR SHOWS
HOW MANY FILE CASES THE
DEPARTMENT PUTS OUTCOME PAIRED
TO THE BLUE BAR WHICH IS THE BED
CASES. SOME OF THEM
GIVE YOU THE TOTAL OUTPUT ON FIG
DECISIONS. AND YOU CAN
CAN SEE IN QUARTER ONE, WHEN ATY
DAVISON CAME IN TO MAKE THE
DEPARTMENT MORE EFFICIENT AND
THOSE GAINS ARE HIGHER.
AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE FILED
CASES IT'S MORE THAN DOUBLED
FROM 2021. AND WE ARE
NOT GETTING MORE REFERRALS IN BT
THIS REPORTS THE TACKLING OF THE
THE BACKLOG, AND THE BIG THING
THAT ALLOWED US TO ACCOMPLISH
THIS IS THE MEDIAN TIME TO FILR
MAKE A FILING DECISION AND YES,
IN THE PANDEMIC, IT WAS VERY
HIGH BUT BEFORE THEN, IT WAS IN
THE RANGE OF 100. AND
NOW WE ARE DOWN TO THREE DAYS
FOR A MEDIAN DECISION.
THAT MEANS A LOT OF THEM ARE
DECIDED VERY QUICKLY.
EXCUSE ME. BUT THERE
ARE STILL SOME THAT TAKE LONGERT
THE MEDIAN IS WHAT A VICTIM
WOULD EXPECT TO HAVE TO WAIT TOE
A FILING ON THE CASE, AND THAT'S
THAT'S HAD A LARGE IMPACT ON THE
THE OFFICE ALSO WITH THE BACKLO.
HEAR YOU CAN SEE THE GROWTH OF
THE BACKLOG SINCE 2019.
IT DIPPED SLIGHTLY IN THE
PANDEMIC BECAUSE ATTORNEYS WERE
ABLE TO REDIVERT FROM THE CLOSES
TO HANDLE THE FILING DECISIONS.
WHEN CITY ATTORNEY DAVISON CAME
IN, THERE WAS NEARLY 5000 CASES.
YOU CAN SEE THE HIGHEST POINT
WHEN THE POLICY WAS INITIATED,
AND SINCE THEN, IT HAS DONE QUIE
A LOT. IN QUARTER
NUMBER TWO, THE DEPARTMENT CLEAD
900 CASES FROM THE BACKLOG OF
CASES UNDER REVIEW AND LED TO --
BACKLOGS FOR ONE SECOND? TO THE
I WANT TO ADD THAT THE PRIOR ADN
POLICY WAS THAT ALL NEW CASES
WENT TO THE BACK OF THE LINE AND
AND SO CASES WERE REVIEWED CHROY
OR REVERSE -- OR -- YEAH.
CHRONOLOGICALLY. WE
HAVE STOPPED THAT POLICY.
ALL NEW CASES ARE REVIEWED
AGAIN, WITHIN THE THREE DAYS.
THE BACKLOG REPRESENTS THESE ARE
ARE THE CASES THAT CAME IN THAT
WERE KIND OF LEFT OVER FROM 202D
2021. SO WE WILL
CONTINUE TO TRY AND WHITTLE DOWE
CASES TO MAKE STRATEGIC FILING
DECISIONS BECAUSE THE CASES ARE
NOT RIPE ANYMORE. THE
EVIDENCE IS GONE OR IT'S HARD TT
VICTIMS. BUT THOSE --
NO NEW CASES ANY INCIDENT REFERD
TO OUR OFFICE TODAY IS NOT GOING
GOING IN THE BACKLOG.
IT'S GETTING THE DECISION INTO
THE FIVE-DAY TIMELINE.
THANK YOU, PER.
>> YOU CAN SEE THE LIGHT BLUE IC
VIOLENCE. THE TAN
COLOR IS CRIMINAL TRAFFIC, AND
THE GREEN IS THE TYPICAL STREET,
ASSAULTS, THINGS LIKE THAT.
YOU CAN SEE THAT THE CRIME RATES
RATES HAVE GONE DOWN WHEN
LOOKING AT THE NEW ONES COME IN,
IN, SO IT WOULD BE THE BACKLOG
WHERE THE LINES WOULD NOT INCLUE
IN THE BACKLOG. THIS
IS LARGELY ATTRIBUTED TO, AS
SCOTT MENTIONED, WITNESSES ARE
STILL AROUND AND MEMORIES ARE
BETTER, EVIDENCE IS EASIER TO C.
AND IT'S JUST MORE EFFICIENT.
SO THIS IS KIND OF A CRAZY
LOOKING CHART BUT WHAT THIS
SHOWS IS THE PERCENTAGE OF
REASONS WE DECLINE CASES.
I WANT YOU TO FOCUS ON THE TOP
TWO, THE ORANGE AND THE GREEN.
THOSE ARE RELATED TO VICTIMS OR.
SO THE GREEN IS NOT BEING ABLE
TO CONTACT THE VICTIMS.
THAT'S ACTUALLY A PRETTY BIG PR.
IF WE HAVE GOOD EVIDENCE BUT WE
CAN'T GET HOLD OF THE VICTIM,
IT'S HARDER TO PROSECUTE AND THM
DOESN'T FEEL LIKE THEY WERE SER.
THE BIG REASON THEY WERE HIGH IS
IS THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT TOOK
FOR THE VICTIM -- EXCUSE ME, TOE
ENGAGED. AND IF YOU
LOOK SPECIFICALLY AT DOMESTIC V,
IT'S A VERY LARGE ISSUE AND IT
WAS ABOUT A QUARTER THAT WAS
BECAUSE OF THAT, AND NOW IT'S
ABOUT DOWN TO 8%. SO
THE CLOSE IN TIME POLICY HAS
MADE THE OFFICE MORE EFFICIENT
AND GIVEN US BETTER CONTACT WITH
CONTACT WITH VICTIMS AND MADE
THE PROSECUTORIAL CASE STRONGERD
-- GO AHEAD.
>> THAT PARTICULAR SLIDE IS
ACROSS ALL CHARGES, IF WE WERE
TO LOOK AT AN INDIVIDUAL CHARGES
YOU SAY, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, YOU
WOULD SEE A DIFFERENT COLOR ON
THE BARS AND WITH DOMESTIC VIOL,
WE WOULD SEE A LARGER BAR FOR
THE ORANGE BECAUSE OF A HIGH
PERCENTAGE OF DECLINES IN THE CS
IS RELATE TKOD THE VICTIM NOT P?
>> BOTH IN THE ORANGE AND THE G,
THE GREEN, NOT PARTICIPATED.
>> THANK YOU.
>> AND BY THEIR NATURE, IS THIS
IS COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT TO.
BUT YOU CAN SEE THE VARIOUS
DIFFERENT ALTERNATIVES, AND
THEY ARE PROPORTIONAL.
ARE PROPORTIONAL. HOW
MANY OF THE REFERRALS INTERACT
WITH THE ALTERNATIVES.
AND THERE IS A LARGE SLICE IN 2.
A LOT OF CASES THAT WERE FILED
WERE DIVERTED INTO THE REPORT
THEN, AND THAT'S WHY YOU SEE
THAT KIND OF SPIKE. IF
IF YOU LOOK AT 2022, THERE IS
ANOTHER SPIKE UP. THAT
THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY BECAUSE
OF A CHANGE IN POLICY.
IN POLICY. AND IF GO
YOU GO BACK YOU CAN SEE ANOTHERE
IN THE LEVEL AND THE PROPORTION
OF CASES HAS STAYED CONSTANT,
AND THIS CHART SHOWS THERE IS NG
BEFORE QUARTER TWO OR QUARTER
THREE OF 2020 BECAUSE IT
REPRESENTS THE COURT SIDE, AND
IT'S MUCH MORE CONSISTENT THERE,
THERE, AND THE SAME THING WITH
THE MENTAL HEALTH COURT.
IT WAS PICKING UP LATELY LIKELY
BECAUSE WE ARE COVERING FROM TH,
AND WE CAN COME BACK IF YOU HAVE
HAVE QUESTIONS LATER BUT ONE
LAST THING. I WANT TO
SHOW THE MAPPING. SO
THE CENTRAL MAP SHOWS ALL OF OUS
COMING IN. THERE IS AR
-- SEATTLE AND CAPITOL HILL IS
WHERE MOST OF OUR REFERRALS COME
COME FROM, BUT WE HAVE HOT SPOTS
SPOTS SUCH AS BALLARD, NORTH
GATE, THE U DISTRICT, AND YOU N
LOOK IF YOU LOOK AT WHERE THE DC
VIOLENCE IS, SAME WITH CRIMINAL.
THAT TENDS TO FOLLOW WHERE THE
MAJOR ROADS ARE, WHERE THE BARS
ARE AND THINGS LIKE THAT, AND TS
MAPPING IS GIVING OUR OFFICE THE
THE ABILITY TO LOOK FOR NEW
TRENDS AND KIND OF UNDERSTAND
THINGS BETTER. WITH
THAT I WILL SEND IT ON SCOTT.
>> OKAY. INTERESTING
TO SEE WHETHER COUNCILMEMBERS HE
QUESTIONS.
COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS?
>> THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR AND
THANK YOU TO THE CITY ATTORNEY'S
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE FOR THE REPOR.
THIS IS EXCELLENT INFORMATION.
CAN WE GO BACK TO SLIDE NINE, P?
>> YES.
>> SO LOOKING AT THE 2022 DATE
WHICH IS PROBABLY THE MOST
DISPOSITIVE HOW TO PLAN FOR THER
FUTURE IN DRILLING INTO THE
REASONS FOR DECLINES, IT SEEMS
LIKE A FAIRLY CONSISTENT PATTERR
THE YEARS OF ANALYZING DECLINE
DATA IS THE UNABLE TO MEET THE
BURDEN OF PROOF. AND I
I WONDER IF THERE'S A DISCUSSION
DISCUSSION WITH THE OFFICE AND
SPD ON THE NATURE OF CASEWORK IS
IS THAT GETS FORWARDED TO THE
OFFICE TO TRY TO TAKE A BIGGER K
INTO THAT? I KNOW FROM
FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE THAT
WAS AN ONGOING ISSUE IN BEING
ABLE TO DECLINE FEWER CASES AND
SEEK SOME KIND OF ACTION ON A
HIGHER PROPORTION OF FORCES ANDI
WONDER WHAT THE OFFICE IS USING
TO BREAK INTO THAT CATEGORIY?
>> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBER
LEWIS, AND THANK YOU FOR ADDING
ADDING YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCES
WELL. THIS IS A MAJOR
ISSUE FOR THE OFFICE AND ONE OF
THE INITIATIVES THAT WE HAVE IN
COORDINATION WITH CHIEF DIAZ AND
AND THE SEATTLE POLICE
DEPARTMENT COMMAND TEAM.
I DON'T KNOW IF RYAN MAXEY IS
STILL ON THE CALL YOU ABOUT IS
TO PARTICULARLY FOCUS ON
TRAINING OF OFFICERS ON REPORT .
FOR THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS WE HD
A -- BOTH A DROP IN THE NUMBER
OF VETERAN OFFICERS AND INCREASE
INCREASE IN NEW OFFICERS.
BECAUSE OF PANDEMIC-RELATED
RESTRICTIONS AND COMPLICATIONS,
I THINK NOT GREAT TRAINING OPPOS
FOR REPORT WRITING. WE
WE ARE WORKING WITH THE
DEPARTMENT TO IMPROVE THE REPORT
REPORT WRITING AND MAKE SURE
THAT ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF THE
CRIME ARE INCLUDED UP FRONT.
AND IF IT'S INCLUDED UP FRONT,
FIRST TIME PATROL IDENTIFIES AND
IDENTIFIES AND WRITES A REPORT
ON THE CRIME AND SUBMITS THE
REFERRAL, WE NEED TO RELY LESS
ON FOLLOW-UP UNITS. AS
AS YOU ARE AWARE, THE UNIT IS
SHORT STAFFED HAVING SENT IS THE
THE DETECTIVES INTO PATROL OLES
PATROL ROLES AND LIMITED ABILITY
ABILITY TO FOLLOW UP ON THE MISR
CRIME. WE NEED THE PAL
UNITS TO GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST
TIME AND MAKE IT AN ADDITIONAL
CASE FOR FOLLOW UP.
AND WE ARE SEEING EARLY RESULTS
OF THE TRAINING EFFORT BUT THOSE
THOSE ARE JUST STARTING TO GET G
IN THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS.
>> THANK YOU FOR THAT ANSWER,
AND LOOKING FORWARD TO
CONTINUING TO TACKLE THAT
SIGNIFICANT PLURALITY OF THE
SOURCE OF DECLINE.
WHAT INFORMATION CAN THE OFFICE
SHED ON THE OTHER CATEGORIES?
MY SUSPICION IS THAT'S POLICY
RELATE BUD THAT'S IT OWN
SEPARATE CATEGORY.
WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT FALL
INTO THE OTHER?
>> PER, DO YOU HAVE INSIGHT ON ?
>> YEAH. SO IT'S COMP.
THERE ARE MANY, MANY REASONS FO.
SO IT COULD BE SOMETHING --
SOMETIMES, LEADERS ARE INVOLVED
WITH THE OTHER REASONS, BUT THEN
IS SHOWING THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS
ACCESS TO RESOURCES AND ARE
ACTUALLY UTILIZING THE SYSTEM.
THE DECLINE IS SENT OUT THAT WA.
IT COULD BE SOMETHING LIKE A
PHONY FILING, SOMETHING LIKE WE
PACKAGE IT WITH A LARGER LIKE OD
RETAIL THEFT. IT COULD
COULD REALLY BE A DOZEN -- A
COUPLE DOZEN DIFFERENT THINGS.
IF YOU WANT I CAN GIVE YOU A
BREAKDOWN BUT IN THE QUARTERLY
REPORT IT'S AN EXTENSION OF THE-
PAGE 5 OF THE QUARTERLY REPORT
BREAKS IT DOWN. THERE
IS MENTAL INCOMPETENCY.
THERE'S TECHNICAL ISSUES.
THERE IS FEES, FELONY FILINGS, Y
DIFFERENCES.
>> SO THE OTHER CATEGORY INCLUDS
COMPETENCY?
>> YES. YOU CAN SEE
ROUGHLY WHAT% THAT IS.
WHAT% THAT IS.
>> THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THA.
>> AND A RECENT INCOMPETENCY
FINDING FROM A DIFFERENT CASE
THAT THEY APPLY TO THIS.
>> OKAY.
>> COUNCILMEMBER
NELSON?
>> THANK YOU FOR THIS.
FOR THIS. JUST ON THAT
THAT NOTE ABOUT DETECTIVES AND,U
KNOW, THE FACT THAT THEY WERE
DEPLOYED TO PATROL. I
WENT TO ROLL CALL AT THE
PRECINCT LAST NIGHT AND HEARD
FROM OFFICERS THAT THAT IS IN
FACT A STRUGGLE IF PEOPLE ARE
NOT ABLE TO INVESTIGATE SOME OFE
CRIMES. THEN
OBVIOUSLY, THERE WOULDN'T BE
ENOUGH PROOF BUT MY QUESTION IS
ABOUT THE BLUE CATEGORY, DIVERSN
POLICY RELATED. I
WOULD LIKE TO HEAR MORE ABOUT
THAT BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT ONLY
ONLY ABOUT 1% OF REFERRALS COME
FROM THE POLICE. SO HW
-- WHY IS THAT CATEGORY SO BIG?
>> IT INCLUDES COMMUNITY COURT,L
HEALTH COURT, -- TAKE IT AWAY.
>> GO AHEAD, PER.
>> YEAH.
IT WOULD PROBABLY NOT BE A HUGET
OF IS THAT. A LOT IS
PREFILE DIVERSIONS.
THIS IS NOT JUST DECLINE BUT
THINGS THAT INTERACTED BEFORE WE
WE FILED THE CASE. THE
THE POLICY PART, PART OF THE
SPIKE UP IN QUARTER 2 IS
DECLINING IN OLD BACKLOG CASES.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE ALTERNATIVES
HERE YOU CAN SEE THAT PRE-FILE
DIVERSION IS LOWER THAN IT WAS .
IT'S STARTING TO GO BACK UP
AGAIN IT. HAS A LITTLE
LITTLE NATURAL FLUCTUATION
BECAUSE THEY DON'T SCHEDULE
THEIR CLASSES WITHIN THE QUARTE.
THEY COULD HAVE LIKE THREE IN
ONE QUARTER AND ONE IN THE NEXT
BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEIR OPERATS
ARE. YOU WON'T ALSO
GET THE CONSISTENT QUARTER TO Q.
>> OKAY. THANK YOU.
>> AND THIS CHART REPRESENTS THE
THE THINGS, THE INTERVENTIONS
THAT GO INTO THE POLICY-RELATEDE
BUT THEN THERE IS ALSO -- I
THINK I HEARD YOU SAY -- THERE S
ALSO A NUMBER OF CASES THAT YOUE
NOT PURSUING BECAUSE THEY ARE
STALE CASES. THAT IS T
INTO THE POLICY DECLINE AS WELL.
>> RIGHT. SO
HISTORICALLY ABOUT 3% OF THE
DECLINES ARE POLICY BASED.
BUT THAT NUMBER IS HIGHER IN
QUARTER TWO BECAUSE OF VERY OLD
BACKLOGS FOR NON-PERSON CRIMES T
WE LOOKED AT AND WE DIVERTED
--I'M SORRY, DECLINED.
>> AND TO CLARIFY FOR THIS
CURRENT SLIDE, MANY OF THESE ARE
ARE NOT JUST DELINES.
MANY OF THESE ARE FILED CASES
BUT INTO COMMUNITY COURT.
SO A FILED CASE THAT GOES INTO
COMMUNITY COURT IF THE PERSONAL
SUCCESSFULLY GRADUATES COMMUNITT
BY, SAY, ATTENDING A TWO-HOUR
LIFE SKILLS CLASS, THAT CASE
WOULD BE DISMISSED AT THAT POIN.
BUT THESE REPRESENT A MIX OF OF
PREFILE AND FILED CASES.
>> SOCIETY CASES ON THIS SLIDE
WOULDN'T SHOW UP ON THE PREVIOUS
PREVIOUS SLIDE UNTIL IT WAS SUCL
DIVERSION.
>> SO, NO. THE PRIOR
SLIDE IS DECLINES WHICH ARE DIFT
FROM DISMISSAL. SO
DECLINES WOULD BE THE UP FRONT.
THE DISMISSALS -- IT'S FILE OR
DECLINE AND ONCE THE CASE IS IN
PROGRESS, YOU CAN BE, YOU KNOW,Y
-- PROSECUTED TO THE GUILTY OR
NOT GUILTY PLEA IN THE JURY
FINDING OR DISMISSED FOR A
VARIETY OF REASONS .
>> IT'S REPORTS THAT SUCCESSFULS
BECOME DECLINES.
>> SO.
--
>> GO AHEAD.
>> OH, OKAY.
>> SUCCESSFUL PREFILE DIVERSIONE
DECLINES. A SUCCESSFUL
SUCCESSFUL PRETRIAL DIVERSION I.
>> OKAY. THANK YOU.
>> BASICALLY, WE HAVE MULTIPLE
POINT WHERE IS WE CAN TRY AND
OFF-RAMP, YOU KNOW, INTO ALTERN,
YOU KNOW, DEPENDING ON --
DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
S.
>> LOOKING FOR A QUESTION BUT I
DO HAVE TWO OTHER -- I HOPE -- I
I WANT TO DEFER TO OTHER COUNCI,
NOT SEEING ANY, I HAVE A
QUESTION ABOUT THE -- BOTH THE
DV DECLINES AND THE DUI DECLINES
DUI DECLINES AS IT RELATES TO DV
DV DECLINES, AND YOU HAVE, OF
COURSE, EXPLAINED WHY THAT IS
AND THE REPORT REFERENCES THAT
DV REFERRALS REQUIRE MORE TIME Y
TO ALLOW FOR A TRAUMA-INFORMED
APPROACH INCLUDING OUTREACH IN
SERVICES TO THE VICTIM AND THOUL
CONSIDERATION OF THE SAFETY RISK
RISK IMPACTS TO THE VICTIM AND
THE VICTIM'S DESIRED OUTCOME
WHEN MAKING A FILING DECISION.
AND SO I'M WONDERING DOES THIS
TIME FLEXIBILITY AND THIS FOCUS
ON THE TRAUMA-INFORMED APPROACH,
TRAUMA-INFORMED APPROACH, IS IT
EXPECTED TO, YOU KNOW, MAYBE YOU
YOU ARE MAKING FILING DECISIONS
IN THREE DAYS BUT WE ARE SEEING
FEWER DECLINES IN -- IN -- IN
PURSUING CASES BUT MAYBE MAKING
THE DECISION A LITTLE BIT LATER.
ARE WE ANTICIPATING THAT THIS
FOCUS ON ALLOWING FOR TIME
FLEXIBILITY AND USING THE TRAUMH
MIGHT HAVE A DIFFERENT OUTCOME
IF APPLIED OVER A PERIOD OF TIM?
>> I AM NOT SURE I FULLY
UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION, COUNCI.
>> CAN WE EXPECT TO SEE CHANGES?
>> I THINK THE ANSWER IS YES.
WELL, THE ANSWER IS YES, THAT WE
WE ARE SEEING CHANGES WITH
RESPECT TO VICTIM ENGAGEMENT WHH
IS A HUGELY IMPORTANT METRIC
THAT WE JUDGE OURSELVES BY, AND
AND CLEARLY, VICTIM ENGAGEMENT
WAS A MAJOR PROBLEM IN THE PAST.
AND VICTIMS CANNOT WANT TO
PARTICIPATE IN CASES WHEN THE
OFFICE WAS ONLY REACHING OUT AND
AND ONLY OPENED UP THE CASE
EIGHT, NINE MONTHS AFTER THE IN.
IF WE FILE THAT CASE PROMPTLY,
THERE IS A MUCH GREATER
LIKELIHOOD OF VICTIM ENGAGEMENT.
AND VICTIM ENGAGEMENT IS THE
ELEMENT TO SUCCESS. WE
WE ARE ACTUALLY SEEING
ON-THE-GROUND CHANGES WITH
INCREASED VICTIM ENGAGEMENT.
WE HAD THIS DISCUSSION AS WELL
AND APPRECIATE YOUR INTEREST INE
TOPIC. THERE IS A LOT
MORE THAT CAN CONTINUE TO BE
DONE ACCORDING TO OUR DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE ADVOCATE IN OUR OFFICE
AND OUR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
PROSECUTORS. ONE OF
THE UNDERLYING ADVANTAGES THAT
THEY FACE IS VERY OFTEN OR
RELATIVELY OFTEN, VICTIMS WILL T
THE INTERVENTION OF POLICE
OFFICERS TO STOP AN ABUSIVE
SITUATION IN PROGRESS BUT THEN
FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS RELATED
RELATED TO THEIR VICTIM HOOD ARD
TO PURSUE THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM PROSECUTION OF THOSE CAS.
SO THERE ARE A NUMBER OF WAYS
THAT WE CAN CHANGE THOSE OUT
COMES AND ALSO, YOU KNOW, MAKE
THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM A
BETTER PLACE FOR VICTIMS WHERE
THEY THINK THAT THEY ARE GOING
TO GET A BETTER OUTCOME FOR
THEMSELVES AND THEIR SITUATION.
>> THANK YOU.
>> IF I COULD ADD A QUICK SHOT
TO THAT. THE CLOSING
TIME FILING, THE MEDIAN TIME FOR
TIME FOR NON-DV REFERRALS IS TW.
WITH DV, IT'S THREE DAYS SO IT S
A -- WE DO ALREADY SPEND MORE
TIME WITH IT.
>> THANK YOU. AND THEN
THE DUIs, I SEE THAT THE RATE OF
OF HISTORICALLY, THERE WAS LOW
DECLINE RATES AND IT'S RISING.
AND YOU BELIEVE IT MIGHT BE
BECAUSE OF DELAYS DATE STATE
TOXICOLOGY LAB THAT RULED IN SOE
DECLINE. DO YOU HAVE
INFORMATION ON WHAT'S CAUSING TE
DELAYS, HOW LONG THEY ARE, AND
WHAT CAN POTENTIALLY TURN THAT ?
IS THIS ANOTHER ELEMENT OF A
WORKFORCE STAFFING ISSUE IN THE
AGE OF THE GREAT RESIGNATION?
OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE?
>> THE STATE TOXICOLOGY LAB IS G
INCREDIBLE DELAYS.
THIS IS AFFECTING PROSECUTIONS
FOR DUIs AND OTHER DRUG-RELATED
CASES, DRUG AND ALCOHOL-RELATED
CASES ACROSS THE STATE.
SO THIS IS -- THIS IS A VERY SES
ISSUE. THE LAST I HEAD
THIS -- THAT THOSE DELAYS WERE
UPWARDS OF NINE MONTHS, AND SO
THAT REALLY MEANS IS THAT CASES
CAN GO STALE, MAYBE AN OFFICER S
IN THE MEANTIME. SO
THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE FOR US AND
AND ONE THAT WE WOULD BE EAGER
TO ENGAGE WITH YOU ON WHATEVER
-- WHATEVER PRESSURE WE CAN APP.
I KNOW THERE IS A LOT OF
PRESSURE ON THE GOVERNOR AND
WASHINGTON STATE PATROL AS IT IS
IS TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED
BECAUSE IT AFFECTS WASHINGTON SE
PATROL AS WELL.
>> AND I'M SORRY. IF
YOU ANSWERED THIS PART OF THE
QUESTION, I DIDN'T CATCH IT.
WHAT IS CAUSING THE DELAYS?
DO WE KNOW?
>> THEY HAVE
-- THEY HAD A VARIETY OF -- I TK
MY CURSORY UNDERSTANDING,
COUNCILMEMBER S THERE IS A
NUMBER OF ISSUES, STAFFING, AND
AND THEY HAD A SERIOUS
CONTAMINATION ISSUE AT ONE OF
THEIR LABS THAT, IN EFFECT, CLOD
THAT DOWN AND THEY HAD TO CONSE
THEIR OPERATION, AND THAT MEANT
MEANT THAT THEY'RE JUST WILDLY .
>> THANK YOU. ANY
OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COLLEAGUES
BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO THE LAST
ITEM ON THE AGENDA?
NOT SEE ANYTHING, AGAIN, REALLY,
REALLY, I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS
BEING HERE WITH US TODAY.
THIS IS, AGAIN, REALLY
APPRECIATED THAT THERE IS MORE
OF A FOCUS ON THIS SORT OF IN
THE WEEDS DATA THAT WILL REALLY
DO A LOT TO HELP CREATE TRANSPAY
AROUND THE WORK THAT THE CITY AS
OFFICE IS DOING AND BEING RESPOE
TO THE DIVERSE SAFETY NEEDS OF
OUR COMMUNITY. SO
REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR BEING
HERE WITH US TODAY AND
APPRECIATE THE WORK THEY KNOW
GOES BEHIND, NOT JUST PRODUCINGR
THE COURT BUT THE WORK OF THE
CITY ATTORNEY TO ADDRESS THESE .
SO I EXTEND MY THANKS.
EXTEND MY THANKS.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, COUNCIL.
VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THE OPPORT.
>> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBERS.
>> ALL RIGHT. WILL THE
THE CLERK PLEASE READ IN AGENDAR
NINE?
>> COMMITTEE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER,
MISMANAGEMENT -- ASK
RISK MANAGED DEMAND BRIEFING AN.
>> THANK YOU. WE ARE D
BY DAN EDER FROM THE MAYOR'S OFE
AND BRIAN MAXEY AND LOREN
ATHERLEY FROM THE SEATTLE POLIC,
AND WE HAVE 45 MINUTES SCHEDULD
AND A HARD STOP AT 11:30 SO THAT
THAT MEANS 40 MINUTES.
MEANS 40 MINUTES. AND
HOPEFULLY, WE'LL ALLOW FOR SOMEE
FOR COUNCILMEMBERS TO ASK
QUESTIONS BEFORE WE HEAD OFF,
SOME OF US HEAD OFF TO THE
MAYOR'S BUDGET SPEECH AT NOON
BUT WITH THAT I AM GOING TO TURN
TURN IT OVER TO THE EXECUTIVE
TEAM FOR THE PRESENTATION.
>
>> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBER.
I WILL KICK THINGS OFF.
GOOD MORNING. DAN
EDER, MAYOR'S OFFICE POLICY DIR.
CAN YOU HEAR ME OKAY?
EXCELLENT.
>> PERFECT.
>> MAYOR HARRELL SHARES THE
COUNCIL'S STATED GOAL OF
IDENTIFYING OPPORTUNITIES TO
ADDRESS 911 CALLS WITH RESPONSES
RESPONSES THAT ARE BEST SUITED
TO PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS.
THIS WILL MEAN EMPHASIZING
ALTERNATIVES TO TRADITIONAL
POLICING FOR SOME 911 CALL TYPE.
TODAY, YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR A N
ABOUT DATA THAT WILL HELP THE
CITY MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT HOW TO
TO DEPLOY VALUABLE AND SCARCE PC
SAFETY STAFFING RESOURCES.
WE'RE NOT HERE TODAY TO PRESENT
A SET OF SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS OR
IMMEDIATELY IMPLEMENTABLE ACTION
IMPLEMENTABLE ACTION ITEMS BUT
RATHER TO GIVE A PROGRESS REPORN
THE STATE OF THE RESEARCH THAT E
HAVE BEEN DOING. TO
THAT END, THE MAYOR'S OFFICE ANL
CENTRAL STAFF HAVE DEVELOPED A
APPROACH FOR DIVERSITYING THE
PUBLIC SAFETY RESPONSES.
SPECIFICALLY, WE HAVE DEVELOPED
A SO-CALLED TERM SHEET THAT WILL
THAT WILL GUIDE OUR WORK TOGETH.
THE TERM SHEET INCLUDES THE
FOLLOWING THREE GOALS, REDUCE
HARM TO COMMUNITIES, PRESERVE FT
RESPONDER CAPACITY FOR WORK AND
INCREASE THE RATE OF ANYONES AND
AND TIMELINESS SPECIFICALLY FORY
THREE AND PRIORITY FOUR 911 CAL.
THIS IS A TALL ORDER, AND THIS
IS IMPORTANT WORK. AS
YOU WILL HEAR, SPD, THE SEATTLE
POLICE DEPARTMENT, HAS BEEN
WORKING ON RISK MANAGEMENT RESEH
TO ADDRESS THIS SAFETY
PRIORITIES AND THE CITY
COUNCIL'S STATEMENT OF
LEGISLATIVE INTENT, SPECIFICALLY
INTENT, SPECIFICALLY APD 017 A .
THE RESEARCH POINTS TO
OPPORTUNITIES TO OPTIMIZING THE
RESPONSES, ADDRESSING 911 CALLS
WITH THE RIGHT STAFF DEPLOYED AT
DEPLOYED AT THE RIGHT TIMES.
WE KNOW THIS WILL INVOLVE
CHANGES COMPARED TO THE STATUS
QUO, AND THIS IS GOING TO TAKEE
TIME. IN THE COMING
MONTHS FOLLOWING THE TIMELINES
THAT WERE ESTABLISHED, THE
MAYOR'S CENTRAL STAFF WILL
CONTINUE TO WORK TOGETHER COOPE.
IMPLEMENTING CHANGES IN THE
PUBLIC SAFETY RESPONSES WILL
REQUIRE NOT ONLY A DECISION
ABOUT WHAT SITUATIONS ARE BEST
HANDLED IN DIFFERENT WAYS BUT
ALSO CAPACITY BUILDING,
INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT, AND
AND FOR SOME SOLUTIONS,
BARGAINING WITH OUR LABOR PARTN.
WITH THE CHAIR'S PERMISSION,
I'LL PASS THE SPOTLIGHT TO BRIAN
BRIAN MAXEY, THE POLICE
DEPARTMENT'S CHIEF OPERATING OFR
WHO WILL WALK YOU THROUGH SOME
BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT AND THEN
LOREN ATHERLEY, ALSO FROM SPD,
WILL GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE
CURRENT RESEARCH AND FINDINGS,
AND THEN, OF COURSE, WE'LL ALL
BE AVAILABLE TO ADDRESS QUESTIO.
>> THANK YOU. I WANT
TO CLARIFY. YOU DID
MENTION THE TERM SHEET.
THE WORK CONTEMPLATED IN THE
TERM SHEET IN THE PILOT IS THE
LONG-TERM COMPREHENSIVE WORK --
THERE WILL BE SOME, I THINK,
INFORMING OF THE PILOT FROM THE
RMD ANALYSIS BUT THE RM D ANALYS
IS TO DIVERSIFY RESPONSE AGAINST
AGAINST MANY CALL TYPES WHEREAS
THE TERM SHEET WORK IS ON
IDENTIFYING A COUPLE OF CALL
TIMES ON A SHORTER TIMELINE.
THERE WAS A LOT OF PUBLIC
CONFUSION ABOUT WHAT THE
CONVERSATION WAS IN MY LAST
COMMITTEE MEETING ON THE LAST
TERM SHEET AND HOW IT THE ARES O
THE RMD ANALYSIS, AND I WANT TO
TO BE CLEAR FOR THE VIEWING PUB.
BRIAN ARE YOU THERE?
>> YES. THANK YOU,
CHAIR HERBOLD. I AM
VERY EXCITED TO HAVE THIS CONVEN
PUBLICALLY STATED ON MANY
OCCASIONS, THE P DOES, FULLY COD
TO CREATE THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE
COMPREHENSIVE PUBLIC SAFETY YOUD
-- SAFETY IS THE KEY HERE, ANDS
ANALYSIS LOOKS HISTORICALLY AT
THE INJURIES AND THE FINAL CALL
TYPE AND ASSESSES THE FOUNDATION
FOUNDATION AND RISK GOING FORWA.
THESE ARE FINAL CALL TYPES,
DESIGNATED BY DISPATCHERS.
SO THIS INFORMATION IN THE
ANALYSIS IS IN 2020 HINDSIGHT,
LOOKING AT WHAT HAPPENED.
THE NEXT STEP IN THE PROCESS IS
TO TRANSLATE THIS UNDERSTANDING
OF RISK IS HELP DISPATCHERS TO
PREDICT HOW THE CALL MIGHT END.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, THE
OUTSET AND WE CAN'T SEND THE
RIGHT SIZED RESPONSE, PREDICTAB.
OVERALL WE ARE OFFERING THE MOST
MOST EXPANSIVE CALL STIPE TYPES
TYPES THAT SPD CAN CONSIDER FOR.
IT DOES NOT SAY WHAT YOU SHOULD
úDO OR WHAT IS LEGALLY
APPROPRIATE AND IT DOES NOT
INCLUDE PRACTICALLY OR COST.
IT'S A CALL TYPE BASED ON
HISTORICAL RISK OF INJURY.
BEFORE I TURN THIS OVER TO LOREN
LOREN ATHERLEY FOR THE ANALYSIS
AND FINDINGS, I WANT TO STRESS
OUR EFFORTS AT TRANSPARENCY. .
PRIOR TO THE COMMITTEE MEETING
WE HAD FORMULAS IN A SPREADSHEET
SPREADSHEET AND SUBMITTED A
DETAILED MEMO EXPLAINING WHAT WE
WE DID, AND WHAT CAN ONLY BE IDD
BY AN OFFICER, WE PUT THEM IN AT
AND PUT THEM IN A TAB AND THESE
ARE REALLY DIFFERENT TIMES.
THEY CAN'T BE DIVERTED BECAUSE
BY DEFINITION THEY ARE OFFICER
ACTIVITY, AND THEN THERE WERE L.
AND SPD MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO SOML
CLASSIFICATIONS. FOR
EXAMPLE, THE WELFARE CHECK WAS D
BY THE MODEL AS TIER 1 REQUIRING
REQUIRING A POLICE RESPONSE
BECAUSE THERE WERE ASSOCIATED
DEATHS WITH THAT TYPE OF CALL.
AS WE REVIEWED THIS, WE
RECATEGORIZED THIS AS TIER 3
SAYING THAT WITH POLICE
AWARENESS, THAT RESPONSE IS HAP.
THIS IS A JUDGMENT CALL.
I BELIEVE WE'LL DISCUSS THAT
MORE TODAY BUT IT'S TO BETTER
PREDICT OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THN
BUT IMPORTANTLY WE SHOWED OUR
WORK IN ALL RESPECTS.
IT'S OUR INTENT TO CONTINU ANDE
WORKING FORWARD. THIS
IS NOT A ONE AND DONE AND WE
LOOK GUARD TO CONTINUING THIS.
I LOOK FORWARD TO DISCUSSING THS
FURTHER.
>> LET ME MAKE SURE THAT I CAN
DO THIS CORRECTLY. CAN
CAN YOU HEAR ME ALREADY?
SO THANKS FOR THAT INTRODUCTION.
MY COMPUTER STRUGGLES A BIT WITE
SCREEN SHARE. I WILL
TRY AND GET IT ON CAMERA BUT IF
I HAVE TO, I WILL TURN OFF THE
CAMERA TO KEEP THINGS FLOWING.
I WILL DO A QUICK REVIEW OF THE
WORK THAT WAS DONE IN THE FACE
ONE FORM AND TALK ABOUT THE THIS
THAT INVOLVE RISK MAKERS AND
COVER RISK MANAGEMENT.
SO THE ITEMS ARE FAMILIAR AND
TALK ABOUT THE HIGH-LOVELY STRAC
FORECAST. AND WE'LL GO
GO OVER THE CONSIDERATION, THE S
OF THE DATA AND ANALYSIS AND
WHAT IT MEANS AND DOESN'T MEAN D
THE WAY THAT THEY HAVE BEEN
CONTROLLED AND THEN TALK A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE TECHNICAL .
SO I THINK A GOOD PLACE TO START
START IS RISK MANAGEMENT, THE
CONCEPT THAT HAS ACTUALLY BEEN
IN DEVELOPMENT FOR JUST ABOUT AR
AND A HALF. SO THIS IS
IS A CONTINUATION OF THE ANALYS.
I THINK FIRST, I WOULD LIKE TO
MAYBE CHALLENGE THE
CHARACTERIZATION THAT THE POLICT
DISAGREES WITH THE NICK JUNIOR .
THAT'S NOT MY PERSPECTIVE.
I THINK IT'S A FANTASTIC MODEL,
AND YOU WILL SEE THAT WE ARE
CONTINUING THAT CALL RESPONSE ML
FROM THE NICK JUNIOR ANALYSIS.
THE LIMITATION OF THE NICK
JUNIOR ANALYSIS IS IN THE IMPLE.
YOU KNOW, AS I MENTIONED BEFORE
AND IN OUR PREVIOUS BRIEFING,
THE INITIAL CALL TYPE DOESN'T --
-- THEY ARE DIFFERENT BETWEEN 50
BETWEEN 50 AND 90% OF THE TIME,
AND WHEN YOU SEE WHAT IS
PROVIDED AT THE END OF THE CALL
WHICH IS ROUGHLY WHEN THE FINAL
CALL TYPE REPRESENTS, IT'S
DIFFICULT TO TAKE THAT ON THE FT
END AND APPLY IT TO THE CALL
TRIAGE FUNCTION.
THAT'S WHAT THE HOLE BODY OF
WORK IS ABOUT. IT'S
ABOUT TRIAGING THE ROUGHLY
400,000 OR SO CALLS THAT COME IN
IN AND GET CREATED INTO EVENTS
IN THE COMPUTER ADVANCED SYSTEM
TO RIGHT SIZE THE RESPONSE.
TO DATE, WE HAVE DESIGNED THE
RISK MANAGEMENT METHOD AROUND
ACCEPTED APPROACHES ADOPTED FROM
ADOPTED FROM INDUSTRIES THAT ARE
ARE SITUATED TO MANAGE DIVERSE D
NON-LINEAR APPROACHES.
N
NOT EVERY ACTION IS QUITE A
PATTERN AS IT COULD BE IN A
PRODUCTION-ORIENTED ENVIRONMENT.
AND THEN WE HAVE ADOPTED THAT
MODEL AND DEVELOPED THE DATA AND
AND POPULATED THE INITIAL MATRI.
WE HAVE A PARTNER FOR
IMPLEMENTING THIS. AND
AND WENT ON STRATEGIC ANALYSIS
IS IN PLACE, THERE ARE ACTION
ITEMS AND BEING ABLE TO TAKE ACN
ON THE RESPONSE AND PROVIDE THE
INFORMATION TO THE FIRST
RESPONSE ECOSYSTEM REQUIRES SOMD
INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE IN PLACE
AND SOME OF THAT IS ACTUALLY
FAIRLY NOVEL. WE HAVED
THAT WORK, AND THOSE CONTRACTS
THOSE CONTRACTS IN PLACE AND
SCHEDULED ON TRACK. WE
WE COORDINATE WITH OUR PARTNERS
TO DEVELOP THE PROTOTYPE DATA,
DATA, AND WE ACTUALLY USE
OBJECTIVE CRITERIA THAT IS
GENERATED BY A RESPONSE THAT HAS
OUTSIDE OF THE POLICE RESPONSE E
AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEM SG
THE DATA TOGETHER AND DOING IT
CORRECTLY IS A CHALLENGE.
SO THAT WAS A NOVEL PIECE OF
WORK THAT HAD TO BE COMPLETED
AND THAT WILL GO IN PRODUCTION
SO THE PIECE OF ANALYSIS WILL
CONTINUE TO KEEP TRACK OF THE
RISK CATEGORIES AND THEIR
RESULTING OUT COMES AND THEN
CONDUCT THE RISK ASSESSMENT RISK
RISK MANAGEMENT STAFFING OR THE
CAPACITY ESTIMATES THAT WE WILL
BE DISCUSSING HERE. I
WOULD LIKE TO CLARIFY THE NOTION
NOTION OF RISK ASSESSMENT THAT
COMES BEFORE THE ACTIVE RISK MAT
IS A SAFETY OR INDUSTRIAL SAFETY
SAFETY APPROACH THING AND NOT AT
AT ALL IN OTHER APPLICATIONS
WITHIN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SYSTEM AND USE THE TERM THAT ISY
MUCH JUST TAKING AN OBJECTIVE
APPROACH TO UNDERSTANDING THE
LIKELIHOOD THAT THE SEVERE OUT S
WILL HAPPEN AS EVALUATED BASED
ON THE APPROXIMATELY TWO MILLION
MILLION RECORDS THAT WERE CONSID
IN THE ANALYSIS. SO
JUST A QUICK RECAP.
WHEN DISCUSSING RISK MANAGEMENT,
MANAGEMENT, YOU KNOW, THE
APPROACH TAKES INTO
CONSIDERATION THE HISTORY OF THE
OF THE ORGANIZATION, SO IN THIS
CASE, GIVEN THE LIMITATIONS OF
THE DATA WE ARE CONSIDERING A
FIVE AND A THIRD YEAR PERIOD OF
TIME AND ANY OF THE SEVERE
OUTCOMES WE TAKE 366 INDIVIDUAL
CALL TYPES. WE
CONSIDER THE WORST-CASE SCENARID
WITH THAT PARTICULAR CALL TYPE
BUT OBVIOUSLY, IF YOU ONLY
CONSIDER THE WORSE CASE SCENARI,
THERE ARE A WHOLE LOT OF THINGS
THAT DON'T MAKE A LOT OF SENSE
TO DO, AND THAT'S PROBABLY ONE F
THE REASONS THAT 911 RESPONSE
OPERATIONS AND GENERAL RESPONSE
TO A MYRIAD OF CALLS, AN ALL HAS
RESPONSE WHICH IS A STANDARD
APPROACH TO MANAGING THE BODY OF
OF WORK, NOT REALLY SORT OF
GIVING COMPLETE INFORMATION OR
AN ADEQUATE FORECAST TO UNDERSTD
WHAT THE RISK OF THAT EVENT IS,
AND MOST MUPPETS SEND A POLICE
OFFICER JUST IN CASE.
IT'S NOT THE MOST SEVERE OUTCOME
OUTCOME BUT SEVERITY IS ONE LEG
LEG OF THE RISK ASSESSMENT IN
THE STUDY THAT IS DEFINED BY
OBJECTIVE CRITERIA BASED ON THE
OUTCOME WITH THE EVENT.
SO THE NICK JUNIOR ANALYSIS IS
PRETTY WELL CONTAINED IN THE
CALL DATE FOR THE INITIAL OR THL
CALL TYPE AND READING, SORT OF A
A PLAIN LANGUAGE READING OF WHAT
WHAT THE CALL TYPE SOUNDS LIKE.
SO JUST CONSIDERING THE FINAL
CALL TYPE CONSIDERS THE OUTCOME
ASSOCIATED WHERE SOMEONE WAS KID
OR INJURED AND WHAT LEVEL OF
CARE WAS NECESSARY TO SUPPORT
THAT PERSON. I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT PARR
OUTCOME IS AN INDEPENDENT
MEASURE OF THE POLICE DEPARTMEN.
WE TRY TO, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE,
MAKE THE OUTCOME BEING USED IN
ASSESSING THE RISK OF THE EVENT
INDEPENDENT OF POLICE OBSERVATI.
THE OTHER LEG OF THIS RISK
ASSESSMENT IS LIKELIHOOD.
THE DEFINITION OF LIKELIHOOD PRR
TO THIS STAGE WAS NOT DEFINED.
WE NEEDED TO TAKE A CUT OF THE
DATA AND SEE HOW THEY NATURALLY
SPREAD OUT. THE
DEFINITIONS ON THE SCREEN ARE
VERY UNLIKELY EVENTS, THE MOST
SEVERE EVENT OCCURRING UNLIKELY
AT OR BELOW 1% OF THE TIME, AND
AND UNLIKELY, ABOVE 1%, AT 5%,
AND POSSIBLE, AT OR BELOW 10%, ,
AT OR BELOW 25% AND VERY LIKELY
WOULD BE 50% OR HIGHER.
SO THOSE CONSET OFS BEING
ROUGHLY OBJECTIVE COME TOGETHER
TO FORM A RISK ASSESSMENT.
THIS RISK MATRIX IS A RAW CUT IS
IS 700,000 OBSERVATIONS, AND
THIS PERIOD OF OBSERVATIONS IS Y
NORMAL, THE COMPLETE NEAR OF
2017, 2018, AND 2019 CONSIDERING
CONSIDERING DISPATCH CALLS ONLY,
ONLY, NOT THE CALLS THAT ARE
GENERATED BY POLICE THEMSELVES
BUT REQUESTS FOR POLICE SERVICE
AND DONE DURING A PERIOD OF RELY
NORMAL STAFFING OPERATIONS.
SO BETWEEN THE PANDEMIC AND THE
STAFFING CONSIDERATIONS THE CITS
GRAPPLING FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS.
I WOULD NOT SAY NECESSARILY IT'S
IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO MAKE A WHOLE
WHOLE A LOT OF DECISIONS BASED
ON THE PATTERN IN THE PAST FEW
YEARS BUT I THINK AS WE RETURN
TO THE BASELINE FROM THE
COMPLETE, AGAIN, RELATIVELY
NORMAL OR STANDARD YEARS OF
OPERATION CAN BE USED FORECAST .
YULE YOU'LL NOTICE THE
THE DEFINITIONS AT THE TOP IN
THE COLUMNS AND LIKELIHOOD WE
DISCUSSED TO CONVERGE THE CALL
TYPES INTO THE RESPONSE TIERS.
THOSE RESPONSE TIERS IS A
REASONABLE APPROACH AND THE
UNMITIGATED RISK ASSESSMENT.
THIS IS THE WAY THAT THE
OPERATIONS ARE AND REFLECT THE
ALL HAZARDS TYPE OPERATION.
ONE OF THE THINGS I WOULD LIKE
TO POINT OUT, AN INTERESTING
OBSERVATION AT THIS POINT IS THE
POLARIZATION OF THE RISK ASSES.
I THINK APART FROM THE
INDUSTRIES THAT STAY OUT OF THE
RED AREA OF OPERATIONS,
COMMERCIAL AVIATION, OBVIOUSLY
IS WHAT THIS IS BASEED ON, ANDE
WE DON'T HAVE THE OPTION,
PARTICULARLY WITH CRIMES IN
PROGRESS AND ACTIVE PERSONS IN
THE ENVIRONMENT, WE DON'T HAVE
THE OPTION NOT TO RESPOND BECAUE
OF THE HIGH RISK. AND
IN THE FUTURE, WE HAVE -- NEXT
SLIDE, WE HAVE SIGNIFICANT
OPPORTUNITY TO MITIGATE SOME OFE
THINGS THAT ARE GENERALLY
CONSIDERINGED TO BE HIGH RISK
AND YOU CAN PROVIDE THE RESOURCE
RESOURCE WITH THE SKILLS AND ABY
TO SUPPORT THAT PERSON OR THAT
FUNCTION AND DO SO WITHOUT
SUBJECTING THEM TO UNDUE RISK O.
SO THERE WAS A -- AND WE
DISCUSSED THIS A LITTLE BIT, THE
THE RECLASSIFICATION OF ALL TYP.
JUST ABOUT 56% OF THE CALL
TYPES, THE 356 CALL TYPES
CONSIDERED, ARE PRESENTED IN RA.
THEY ARE THE CALL CLASSIFICATION
CLASSIFICATION DEPICTED HERE JUT
AS THEY COME OUT OF THE CALCULA.
JUST ABOUT 30%, ABOUT 31% OF
THESE ARE UPGRADED.
FOR ADMINISTRATIVE REASONS, THE
CALL TYPE ITS PRESCRIBED A
POLICE OFFICER AND WE ARE
INCLUDING THOSE ADMINISTRATIVE
CALL TYPES SO YOU CAN SEE THE WE
OF WHAT IS CONSIDERED BY THE
RISK MANAGED DEMAND ANALYSIS AND
AND INCLUDE THOSE IN THE SPREAD.
SO IF YOU READ THROUGH THE
SPREADSHEET YOU CAN SEE THE
ADMINISTRATIVE-TYPE THINGS,
OFFICERS CHECKING OUT TO THE
RANGE OR SPECIFIC ASKED FOR POLE
OFFICERS. THOSE ARE
CALCULATED AS A LOW RISK, WE WOD
NOT ANTICIPATE THE SEVERE OUT
COMES ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE
REQUESTS FOR SERVICE BUT THEY
WERE UPGRADED TO THE TIER 1
POLICE-ONLY VALUE. IN
SOME CASES, THE RISK MANAGEMENT
CALCULATION IS RESPONDING TO THE
THE HIGHLY MANAGED RISK ENVIRON,
THE ALL HAZARDS RESPONSE THAT
HAS DONE A FAIRLY DECENT JOB OF
MITIGATING THE RISK TO RESPONDE,
AND THE HIGH-RISK OUTCOME
ASSOCIATED WITH THE TYPES OF
ENFORCEMENT ARE NOT REALIZED.
SO THEORETICALLY A CRIME IN
PROGRESS MAY BE HIGH RISK
REQUIRING ENFORCEMENT ACTION.
SO IT WAS CONSIDERED A HAZARDS,
BUT BECAUSE IT'S A SPECIFIC
REQUEST FOR ENFORCEMENT OR IT
MIGHT BE ONE OF THE STATUTORY
REQUIREMENTS FOR A POLICE
OFFICER, IT WAS ADJUSTED UP, AND
AND THAT CONSIDERED ABOUT 30.6%
OF THE TIME.
>> LOREN?
>> YEAH.
>> IN PREVIOUS BRIEFINGS THAT
WE'VE HAD ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THIS MODEL IN CONVERSATIONS WITD
AND THE FUNDING FOR THIS MODEL,
WE HAVE ALWAYS HEARD ABOUT RISK
LIKELIHOOD AND SEVERITY AS BEING
SEVERITY AS BEING -- YOU JUST
SAID IT AGAIN, AND IT WAS MENTID
A FEW TIMES THROUGHOUT THE
REPORT, A FOCUS ON RISK TO RESP.
BUT IT'S NOT CLEAR TO ME THAT
RISK TO RESPONDERS IS THE RISK
THAT YOU ANALYZED IN THE RMD.
IT SEEMS LIKE THE INPUT IS THE
RISK IS TO THE SUBJECT.
>> THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT .
AND TWO PEOPLE ASSOCIATED WITH
THAT EVENT, IT DOESN'T CONSIDER
RISK TO RESPONDERS. BY
BY THAT, I MEAN POLICE USE OF
FORCE AND INCIDENTS WHERE THE
POLICE RESPONSE MAY HAVE RESULTD
IN THE INJURY TO SOMEBODY HAVE
BEEN REMOVED FROM THE ANALYSIS
IN THAT CALCULATION OF THE LIKE.
WE DON'T CONSIDER THOSE
SITUATIONS WHERE THE SPECIFIC
RESPONSE BY A POLICE OFFICER
RESULTED IN INJURIES EITHER TO
THE POLICE OFFICER OR ONE OF THE
OF THE PEOPLE ASSOCIATED WITH
THAT RESPONSE. SO THIS
THIS IS A PROXY. IS IT
IT DOES INDICATE SORT OF THE
APPROXIMATE RISK TO RESPONDERS
OR PEOPLE ASSOCIATED WITH THAT
EVENT BUT NOT DIRECT RESPONSE OR
OR NOT DIRECTLY TO RESPONDRS.
AS WE BEGIN TO SORT OF DEPLOY
ALTERNATE RESPONSE RESOURCES TO
THIS BODY OF WORK, THE ACTUAL CN
WILL REFLECT RISK TO ACTUAL RES.
UNFORTUNATELY AT THIS STAGE WE
HAVE BEEN OPERATING UNDER THE
ALL HAZARDS RESPONSE MODEL, IT Y
DOESN'T THIS. BUT
THANK YOU FOR THAT.
>> SURE.
I WILL TURN TO COUNCILMEMBER MO.
I AM SAYING I WILL HAVE A HARD
TIME UNDERSTANDING THE USE OF
THE TERM PROXY. IT
SEEMS LIKE A COMPLETELY
DIFFERENT ANALYTICAL EXERCISE TO
TO ME, WHETHER OR NOT YOU ARE AG
THE RISK TO RESPONDER AS I
THOUGHT THIS EXERCISE WOULD DO
AND THIS REPORT ON A NUMBER OF S
THAT REFERS TO THE NEED TO
MITIGATE THE RISK TO THE
CORESPONDER AND THE POTENTIAL
HARM TO THE RESPOND OR PAGE SEV.
SO I APPRECIATE YOU ARE
CHARACTERIZING THE RISK TO THE
SUBJECT AS A PROXY FOR THE RISK
TO THE RESPONDER. I AG
TO NEED TO SPEND MORE TIME TO UD
THAT. DAN EDER?
>> THANK YOU. SO MY
UNDERSTANDING OF THE DATA, ANDN
CORRECT ME IF THIS IS OFF KILTER
KILTER BUT MY UNDERSTANDING OF
WHAT DATE IS AVAILABLE IS IF FO,
AN AMBULANCE WAS CALLED.
IT DOESN'T SAY WHO RODE IN THE .
IT COULD HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE FT
RESPONDERS. OR IT
COULD HAVE BEEN THE PERSON WHO
MADE THE 911 CALL OR IT COULD
HAVE BEEN A BYSTANDER WHO WASN'Y
INVOLVED IN ANY WAY BUT WAS IN
THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY, A CERTAN
NUMBER OF FEET FROM THE LOCATION
LOCATION WHERE THE CALL -- THE
INCIDENT WAS REPORTED WITHIN A
CERTAIN NUMBER OF SECONDS OR MIS
OF THE RESPONSE ITS, THERE WAS
AN AMBULANCE THAT TOOK SOMEONE
OR TREATED SOMEONE.
THAT -- THAT WAS THE SIGNAL THAT
THAT SOMEONE HAD BEEN INJURED GY
OR OTHERWISE.
>> RIGHT.
>> I UNDERSTAND THAT.
I THOUGHT THIS EXERCISE WAS
ABOUT RISK TO THE RESPONDER.
I UNDERSTAND HOW YOU ARE
DERIVING THE RISK TO THE
SUBJECT, BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND
HOW ONE COULD BE A PROXY FOR TH.
TO ME, IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WOULD
BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
ANALYTICAL EXERCISES.
COUNCILMEMBER MOSQUEDA?
>> THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR, FOR
LOOKING AT THOSE QUESTIONS.
I AGREE. I WOULD LIKE
TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT THE EE
IS HERE. I WANT TO
BETTER UNDERSTAND THE ANSWER TOE
LAST QUESTION IN PART.
IN PART. I BELIEVE,
FORLORN LOREN, I UNDERSTAND
THAT THE ANALYSIS DOES NOT LOOK
AT THE PERSON, THE CLIENT, THE
RESIDENT IF THE HAVE TO NOT RES.
THAT'S THE MOST CONCERNING PIECE
PIECE I WANT TO KNOW.
IF THE OFFICER HAD NOT RESPONDED
RESPONDED IT MIGHT NOT BE THAT
SOMEONE ENDED UP STABBED OR
MIGHT BE THAT SOMEONE DID NOT
GET SHOT DOWN AT THE PIER OR WOD
HAVE BEEN ALIVE. I
THINK THESE ARE THINGS THAT THE
ANALYSIS SHOULD LOOK AT TO SEE
IF THE MERE PRESENCE OF AN OFFIR
OR A CONCERN OR FEAR INSTILLED
IN THE COMMUNITY OR THE REAL
EXPERIENCE OF HAVING LETHAL FORE
BROUGHT OUT BECAUSE THE OFFICER
HAS LETHAL FORCE AS AN OPTION,
THAT'S WHAT WE ARE NOT LOOKING .
>> THOSE EVENTS ARE NOT
CONSIDERED PART OF THE LIKELIHOD
CALCULATION. SO IN THE
THE CASES WHERE THE OFFICER RESD
AND THAT RESPONSE DOES RESULT IN
IN AN INJURY, IT'S NOT CONSIDER.
SO THIS IS LIKE A LOT OF THINGS
IN RESEARCH WHERE YOU CAN'T
MEASURE THE THING DIRECTLY.
THIS AS CLOSE TO THE ENERGY OR
RISK TO THE EVENT AS YOU CAN GE.
>> MADAM CHAIR, IF I MIGHT.
THANKS, MADAM CHAIR.
WHEN WE LOOK AT INDICATORS, I
THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER
REMEMBER THAT THIS ANALYSIS THAT
THAT WE WANTED TO COLLECT FROM
THE REPORT WAS SOMETHING THAT
SPD HAD SIGN OFF ON IN TERMS OF
METHODOLOGY BEFORE THE ANALYSIS
AND IT WAS ONLY AFTER THE
RESULTS CAME OUT THAT IT WAS
CALLED, QUOTE OVER SIMPLISTIC,
AND IF WE ARE TRYING TO GRAPPLE
WHERE BEST TO USE THE DATA AND
MAKE THE PROXY ANALYSIS FOR HOW
TO MOVE FORWARD, I THINK THAT WE
THAT WE SHOULD CONTINUE TO LOOK
AT THE NICK JUNIOR REPORT AND
49% OF US SHOULD WE CALL RECEIVD
RESPONSES AND ANOTHER 24 WOULD
RECEIVE COMMUNITY-BASED
RESPONSES WITH AN OFFICER PRESE.
IF WE ARE STILL IN THE PLACE OFG
WHETHER OR NOT WE HAD THE
PERFECT DATA, IT SOUNDS LIKE
WE'LL NEVER HAVE THE PERFECT
DATA, AND FOR US TO LOOK AT THE
THREE YEARS OF RESULTS THAT NICK
NICK JUNIOR LOOKED AT SEEMS INCY
IMPORTANT. I DON'T SEE
SEE THAT THERE'S A STRONG ANALYS
SAYING THIS IS BETTER THAN THIS
APPROACH AND TO ME, THE FINDINGS
FINDINGS FROM NICK JUNIOR ARE
JUST AS SOUND GIVEN THE
COMPLICATIONS WITH THE DATA THAU
JUST MENTIONED.
>> I JUST WANT TO MAKE CLEAR THE
THE REASON THAT THE USE OF FORCE
FORCE DATA CANNOT BE ENTERED
INTO THE CALCULATION, IS IF WE
JUDGE THE RISK OF A RESPONSE
BASED UPON AN OFFICER USED
FORCE, WE WOULD BE BOOT STRAPPI.
A LOT OF THESE CALLS THAT WE
IDENTIFIED AS AMENABLE FOR TEAR
4, TEAR 3, TIER 2, IT WOULD BE
-- WITH THE CALL TYPE THIS DOEST
MAKE IT ABSOLUTE. BUT
WHAT WE HAVE DONE IS WE PUT THE
RISK OF INJURY BEHIND THE NICK
JUNIOR DATA. IF YOU
INCLUDE USE OF FORCE, THEN WE
ARE SKEWING THE DATA IN FAVOR OF
OF A POLICE RESPONSE BECAUSE THE
THE FORCE WAS USED.
THAT'S THE VARIABLE THAT WE HAVE
WE HAVE TO GET AT, AND YOU HAVE
YOU HAVE TO GET THAT OUT TO
CONTROL ALL THE OTHER VARIABLES.
I DON'T KNOW IF THAT MADE IT ANY
ANY MORE CLEAR BUT IF WE DROP
USE OF FORCE BACK INTO THIS, YOU
THIS, YOU WILL SEE MANY, MANY
MORE CALLS GOING UP TO TIER 1
WHICH IS NOT WHERE WE WANT TO B.
>> THANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATIO.
COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS?
>> THANK YOU, CHAIR HERBOLD.
I WANT TO BREAK DOWN THE
PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS OF THE
REPORT AND GET THE CLARIFICATIOF
HOW THIS INFORMATION WILL BE
ABLE TO GUIDE THE DEVELOPMENT IN
IN THE FUTURE STAGES OF
ALTERNATIVE RESPONSES, AND A
LITTLE CLARIFICATION MIGHT BE HL
IN ME UNDERSTANDING THE REPORT
AND GIVING ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE
IN HOW WE MIGHT PROCEED IN PART,
AND I WANT TO DIRECT THE
ATTENTION OF THE PANEL TO TAKE
EIGHT ON THE REPORT WHERE THERE
IS THE ROTHCO CHART OF THE BOXES
BOXES INDICATING THE DISTRIBUTIN
OF THE CALL. AND THERE
THERE IS HELPFUL DESCRIPTIONS OF
OF THE GENERAL CHARACTER OF THE
DIFFERENT BOXES. IN
READING THIS, I UNDERSTAND TIER
1 AND I UNDERSTAND TIER 4.
AND THE INTERPLAY OF TIER 2 AND
TIER 3 IS SOMETHING THEY WANT
MORE CLARITY ON FROM THE PANEL.
IT MIGHT WANT A DUAL-DISPATCH
MODEL IN YOUR ESTIMATION?
SO AN ALTERNATIVE RESPONDER AND
A POLICE RESPONDER IN SEPARATE
VEHICLES ARE DISPATCHED STRAIGHY
SO THE ALTERNATIVE RESPONDER
ARRIVES FIRST AND TIER 2, YOU
MIGHT WANT A POLICE RESPONDER AD
AN ALTERNATIVE RESPONDER IN THE
SAME VEHICLE RESPONDING AS A TE.
IS THAT A DECENT WAY TO
UNDERSTAND THE PRACTICAL
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TIER 2 AND
TIER 3? AND THEN I'LL
HAVE FOLLOW UP. GO AH.
>> NO. THAT IS
CORRECT. AND I DON'T
WANT TO SOLUTION THIS PARTICULA.
THAT IS OBVIOUSLY THE PURVIEW OF
OF THE WORK GROUP BUT THE TIERED
TIERED RESPONSE FRAMEWORK
PROPOSED BY NICK JUNIOR AND
CARRIED FORWARD IN THE ANALYSIST
FROM THE FACT THAT THE TIERS ARE
ARE REVERSE CODED TO TYPICALLY
REFLECT THE RESPONSE, YOUR TIER
3 RESPONSE IS CORRECT.
CORRECT.
>> IF THAT'S THE CASE, ONE THING
THING I'M CURIOUS ABOUT IS
IMPOSING THIS ANALYSIS ON THE MS
THAT ARE THRIVING IN THIS
JURISDICTION AND WHETHER WE ARE
BEING MORE CAUTIOUS IN THE
ATTRIBUTE THAN THE OTHER
JURISDICTIONS HAVE BEEN.
IN TERMS OF PRACTICALLY APPLYING
APPLYING TO, FOR EXAMPLE, TO THE
THE DENVER STAR PROGRAM I GUESS
AS A THRESHOLD MANNER HAS THE
PANEL REVIEWED THE STUDY FROM
JUNE WHICH I WILL SITE CITE FR?
IF NOT I HAVE LOOK AT THE PRIMER
PRIMER FROM THE EARLY STAR
RESULTS IN DENVER BUT IN THEIR N
AND SCOPING OF WHAT STAR WOULD
RESPOND TO, THEY GIVE A FAIRLY
BROAD PUBLIC HEALTH MAP DATE TO
THE PROGRAM TO RESPOND, AND I AM
AM VOTING FROM PAGE TWO OF THE
STUDY, A PROGRAM IN DENVER
PROVIDES A MOBILE CRISIS
RESPONSE FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS G
PROBLEMS RELATED TO MENTAL
HEALTH, DEPRESSION, POVERTY,
HOMELESSNESS OR SUBSTANCE ABUSE.
THE STAR RESPONSE WOULD ISSUE
STAFF TO PROVIDE RAPID ON-SITE
REPORT AND FURTHER THEM TO FURTR
CARE INCLUDING POLICE
INVOLVEMENT IF NECESSARY.
MY READ OF THAT, IF THAT
DESCRIBES SOMETHING THAT WE
WOULD PROBABLY CHARACTERIZE AS R
3 OR FOUR UNDER THIS ANALYSIS?
BUT SOME OF THE CALL TYPES MIGHT
MIGHT BE WHAT YOU ARE
ANTICIPATING A CORESPONSE FOR,
AND I WONDER IF THAT WILL BE A
PRACTICAL IMPLICATION?
IMPLICATION? AND IF
SO, WHY DUAL DISPATCH AND PEER N
RESPONSE WOULD BE APPROPRIATE
DENVER IS SHOWING THEY CAN BE UD
FOR?
>> CHAIR HERBOLD, MAY I ADDRESS?
>> ABSOLUTELY, AND WE ONLY HAVE
A COUPLE MINUTES LEFT HERE.
I DID COMMIT TO ADJOURNING THIS
MEETING AT 11:30.
>> THANK YOU, AND I DO WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT SPD GETS TO THE
END OF THEIR PRESENTATION.
I'LL BE BRIEF.
COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS, I THINK
THAT THOSE ARE VERY INTERESTING
QUESTIONS THAT THIS RESEARCH REY
CAN'T ANSWER AND DOESN'T TRY TO.
THIS RESEARCH IS ATTEMPTING
MERELY TO LOOK AT HOW A RISK
ANALYSIS WOULD SUGGEST WE
DIVERSIFY THE RESPONSE OF 911 CS
BEYOND EXCLUSIVE RESPONSE BY
POLICE OFFICERS. IT
DOES NOT ATTEMPT TO DO PROGRAM .
IT DOESN'T SAY THAT THE RISK
ANALYSIS IS DETERMINATIVE OF THE
THE MOST APPROPRIATE KIND OF PRM
TO DESIGN OR CALL TYPES TO
ASSIGN TO ANY NEW PROGRAM.
>> ALL RIGHT. LET'S
MOVE ON. I WANT TO --
WE DON'T NEED TO GO OVER THE TIR
STRUCTURE AGAIN. WE
HAVE THE NEXT SLIDE, AND WE DID
DID GET A THOROUGH BRIEFING ON E
MODEL A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO,
AND LET'S SKIP THAT ONE AND GO.
>
>> OKAY. REAL QUICKLY,
QUICKLY, THE PIE CHARTS SHOW THN
OF CALL HOURS AND THE CALL TYPES
TYPES AND THE WAY THAT THEY BREK
OUT AND I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGT
IN THE INTEREST OF BREVITY HERE.
AND THIS IS MUCH LOOK THE LINES
WHATEVER YOU MAY ALREADY HAVE IN
IN MIND AND A QUICK PREVIEW OF E
TIER 4 RESPONSES.
THESE ARE THE TIER 4 CALL TYPES,
AND THESE MIGHT STRIKE YOU AS
STRICTLY POLICE-TYPE RESPONSES
BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT A
POLICE OFFICER IS REQUIRED.
IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT A PATROL
RESPONSE IS REQUIRED.
AND THERE IS SIGNIFICANT
OPPORTUNITIES FOR EFFICIENCIES
AND DIVERSITY OF THE RESPONSE IE
TIER 4 CALL TYPE. AND
IN MINDFUL OF TIME, THERE ARE
TWO RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DEFILING
DEFILING AND CLEANING UP THE CAL
TYPE. ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT MAKES THIS ANALYSIST
AND REQUIRES THE RECODE
SIGNATURE MASSIVE AMOUNT OF CALL
CALL TYPES, AND RMD ANALYSIS DT
LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF CALL TYPES
OR THE WAY THAT THEY ARE HANDLE.
WE'RE WORKING TO ASSIST IN THE .
THIS DOES MANAGE SOME OF THAT,
SO I WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT THE
OUT COMES NOTED FOR THE DEFINITN
OF SEVERITY DO NOT COME FROM POE
DATA. SOME OF THE
LIMITATIONS DISCUSSED OR SPECULD
RELATED TO INJURIES RELATED TO
THE POLICE RESPONSE ARE NOT
CONSIDERED BY THE ANALYSIS.
THIS DOESN'T LIMIT THE WAY THAT
THEY CONDUCT THE OPERATIONS.
IT'S NOT RIGID ENOUGH THAT IT
WOULD FORCE THE DISPATCHERS TO
DO SOMETHING THAT WOULDN'T OTHEE
BE THEIR STANDARD PRACTICE WHEN
THE CALL TAKER THEMSELVES
UNDERSTAND THERE IS A SAFETY
RISK OR A CRIME IN PROGRESS.
AND ALSO THERE IS CONCERN OVER
THE USE OF POLICE DATA, AND I
WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THIS PARTICULR
PIECE OF ANALYSIS IS NOT USED TO
TO DICTATE CRIME DISPARITY AND
THAT DISPARITY AND GENERALLY THE
DATA USED TO GENERATE MORE CRIME
CRIME PATROL TREATMENT AREAS
DOESN'T EXIST IN THIS ANALYSIS.
THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS HAVE
US BUILDING AN INFRASTRUCTURE
AND OPERATIONALLIZING AND
WORKING WITH OUR PARTNERS, AND
WE HAVE THE WORK THAT IS CURRENY
IN PROGRESS, AND THEY ARE
CHECKING OUR OVER METHODS AND
OUR WORK. AND THAT'S
PRETTY MUCH IT.
>> THANK YOU, LOREN.
MUCH APPRECIATED. I
SEE THAT COUNCILMEMBER MOSQUEDA
HAS A QUESTION AND PERHAPS
COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS HAS ANOTHER?
OR PERHAPS AN OLD QUESTION.
>> THAT'S AN OLD QUESTION.
I AM ALLOW FOR TIME.
>> BEFORE I ALLOW COUNCILMEMBER
MOSQUEDA ASKS THE QUESTION --
OH, ANOTHER AND WE ARE AGREEINGO
STAY LATER, AND HOPEFULLY, THOSE
THOSE OF US INTENDING TO GO CAN
STILL MAKE IT TO THE MAYOR'S
BUDGET SPEECH BUT BEFORE TURNING
TURNING IT OVER, I WANT TO FLAG
JUST SORT OF A GENERAL LINE OF
FUTURE INQUIRY THAT I THINK IS G
TO BE VERY IMPORTANT AS WE THINK
THINK ABOUT HOW WE ARE GOING TO
CONTINUE TO COLLABORATE IN THE
USE OF THIS MODEL.
IT'S APPARENT THAT THE MODEL
PUMPED OUT FOR THIS OUT COMES
THAT WERE REVERSED ABOUT 50% OFE
TIME, AND YOU MENTIONED MR.
MAXEY, BUT WE DON'T WHAT
POLICIES, PRINCIPLES, OR RULES
WERE USED TO GUIDE THE DECISION,
THE DECISION, SO IF WE ARE GOING
GOING TO RECOGNIZE THAT THIS MOL
HAS LIMITATIONS BUT IT'S A
BETTER MODEL AS COUNCILMEMBER MA
WAS SAYING BEFORE IF WE ARE GOIG
TO TON ARGUE THAT IT'S A BETTER
MODEL AND MORE PREDICTIVE THAN
IN THE REPORT OF, THEN I THINK
WHEN WE ARE HAVING HUMAN BEINGS
COMING IN AND REVERSE THE
OUTPUTS OF THE MODEL, WE REALLY
NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW THOSE
DECISIONS ARE BEING MADE TO DO E
BEST WE CAN TO LIMIT THE IMPACT
OF JUDGMENT AND MAKE SURE IN
THOSE DECISIONS ARE BASED ON
AGREEMENT AROUND POLICIES AND
PRINCIPLES, SO JUST PUTTING THAT
THERE FOR A FUTURE DISCUSSION.
COUNCILMEMBER MOSQUEDA?
NOT SEEING COUNCILMEMBER
MOSQUEDA ON THE SCREEN.
THERE SH IS.
>> SO SORRY. AND THE
LAST COMMENT IS EXACTLY THE
POINT I WAS GOING TO GET ACROSS
AS WELL. I AM NOT
CONVINCED THAT AN SPD RIBBON AS
WILL NOT ALREADY INHERENTLY
INCLUDE WHAT WE SEE AND THUS WHY
WHY WE CONTINUE TO BE UNDER CONT
DECREE. I VERY MUCH
HOPE THIS WILL BE ON THE AGENDA
AGAIN WHEN YOU CAN, MADAM CHAIR.
I AM CONCERNED. IT
SOUNDS LIKE THIS MODEL IS
DEPLOYED OR IMPLEMENTED AND
MAYBE I WILL FOLLOW UP TO MAKE
SURE I FULLY UNDERSTAND THE NEXT
NEXT STEPS THAT YOU JUST MENTIOD
AND COUNCILMEMBER LEWIS'S
QUESTION, THIS IS NOT MEANT TO
GIVE US A BLUEPRINT BUT THE NICR
REPORT DOES IT TOLD US
US THAT 49%. TIME WE
WON'T NEED AN OFFICER.
AN OFFICER. IT SHOULD
BE HANDLED BY FOLKS NOT TIED TO,
AND IT SAID THAT 24% OF THE
TIME, THE COMMUNITY-BASED
RESPONSE ALONG WITH SPD OFFICERD
MERELY BE PRESENT WAS APPROPRIA.
SO IF NICK JUNIOR IS GIVING US
THAT LEVEL OF SPECIFIC NEXT STEP
NEXT STEP TO POLICY CHANGES, I
DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WE CONTINUE
WE CONTINUE TO LOOK AT ANOTHER
REPORT THAT DOESN'T GIVE US THAT
THAT LEVEL OF POLICY.
SO LOOK FORWARD TO FOLLOWING UP,
UP, MADAM CHAIR W WITH YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
COUNCILMEMBER NELSON?
>> THANK YOU. I DON'T
WANT TO TAKE UP A LOT OF TIME
BUT WE HAVE BEEN CALLING FOR
THIS FOR A LONG TIME AND GETTIG
THE INFORMATION. WE
DIDN'T HAVE TO TALK ABOUT
DEACTIVATION TODAY SO THIS IS
NOT TO BE HURRIED. YOU
YOU KNOW WE ASKED FOR THIS BODY
BODY OF WORK. WHY DID
WE ASK FOR THIS IF WE ALREADY
THE REPORT FROM NICK JUNIOR?
I BELIEVE THAT IS THE FIRST OF
ITS KIND BODY OF WORK AND THE
MULTIDIMENSIONAL BODY OF RISK.
I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE
DENVER STAR APPROACH BECAUSE
ACCORDING TO THIS WHERE IT SAYS
IT RESPONDS TO LOW-LEVEL CALLS,
AND WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
CORESPONSES, AND WE ALREADY DO
HAVE A BODY VIS-A-VIS THE MOAIVL
CRIES -- MOBILE CRISIS BUT THE
OFFICERS THAT GO OUT WITH SOCIAL
SOCIAL WORKERS ALREADY.
AND MY QUESTION FOR EQUAL UP IS
MAYBE EXPAND ON THAT TALKING
ABOUT THE CORESPONSE.
BUT MOSTLY I WANT TO SAY THANK
YOU FOR THE WORK AND I LOOK
FORWARD INTO DIVING INTO IT LAT.
>> ABSOLUTELY. THANK .
>> AND THANK YOU, AND I WANT T.
THE SLIDE DID NOT SPECIFICALLY
SAY GO ANALYZE THE NICK JUNIOR .
SO THE SLIDE WAS NOT
SPECIFICALLY FOR THE RISK MANAGT
DEMAND. THAT WAS
SOMETHING THAT THE DEPARTMENT
WAS SEEKING TO DO AND WE SHOULDE
-- THE COUNCIL AT THE TIME HAD
SOME STRONG FEELING ABOUT
WHETHER OR NOT THE RISK
MANAGEMENT WAS THERE BECAUSE WE
DID HAVE THE NICK JUNIOR REPORT
REPORT AND WE DID REQUEST A STAT
OF INTENT ONCE WE KNEW WE WOULD
BE DOING THIS WORK AND WE DID
AGREE TO FUND IT, AND IT'S AN IR
OF THE WILLINGNESS TO
COLLABORATE IN AREAS THAT THE
DEPARTMENT IS EXCITED ABOUT
MOVING INTO. WE ASKED
FOR THE REPORT BEFORE WE MOVE IO
FUTURE PHASES THAT WE HAVE
AGREEMENT ABOUT HOW THE PRIOR
FADES WERE DONE AND, YOU KNOW, Y
AS IT RELATES TO REVERSING THE
OUT COMES OF THE MODEL.
WE WANT TO HAVE POLICIES AND
PROCEDURES IN PLACE FOR HOW AND
WHEN THAT IS APPROPRIATE BEFOREE
MOVE ON TO THE NEXT PHASES OF
THIS WORK. COO MAXEY.
>> I WANT TO EMPHASIZE.
WE DID NOT REVERSE THE FINDINGS
OF THE MODEL. WE
PRESENTED THAT AND WE TOOK THE
NEXT STEP WHICH IS THE ANALYSIS
PUTTING ON A RISK MANAGEMENT
LENS AND HOW DOES THIS FALL IN ?
SOME OF THE CALLS YOU STRUGGLE
WITH IT. BOMB THREAT,
BY THE MODEL IS TIER 4.
NO ONE HAS GOTTEN HURT
RESPONDING TO A BOMB THREAT.
WE LEFT THAT TO A TIER 4.
IS THAT WHERE IT SHOULD LIE?
I MENTIONED A WELFARE CHECK THAT
CHECK THAT RESULTED IN A DEATH.
THEY HAVE FOUND A DEAD PERSON
AND THAT DOESN'T ACTUALLY
DICTATE IF THAT'S A GOOD PROXY
FOR THE RESPONDER, SO INTERNAL .
IF THERE ARE PARTICULAR CALL US
ARE INTERESTED IN, WE CAN DO A P
DIVE. WE HAVE SHOWN
OUR WORK ON EVERYTHING, NOTHING
WAS NOT TRANSPARENT HERE.
>> YEAH. I AM SORRY IF
IF THE USE OF THE WORD REVERSE S
NOT THE PROPER WORD.
IT DOES NOT SUGGEST THAT YOU DID
DID NOT DO ANYTHING TRANSPARENC.
I CAN SEE THE TERMS YOU USE ARE
UPGRADING AND DOWN GRADING AND I
I WILL ENDEAVOR TO USE THOSE TE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. AL.
IT IS 11:41 A.M. THERE
THERE ARE NO FURTHER QUESTIONS
OR COMMENTS. THIS IS,,
ANOTHER STEP IN THE PROCESS.
I WANT TO SAY I DON'T KNOW THAT
THIS PARTICULAR BODY OF WORK IS
TIME SENSITIVE TO THE DEVELOPMET
OF THE PILOT. THIS
WILL BE A LONG-TERM BODY OF WORK
WORK AND PROBABLY BASED ON THE
EXECUTIVE STATEMENTS WE ARE PROY
NOT GOING TO SEE STAFFING
PROPOSALS BASED ON THE MODEL,
THE RESPONSE MODEL UNTIL LATE, Y
GOING TO BE FUNDED IN THE LATE
2023 FUNDING THROUGH 2024.
