I used to live in a dangerous area of midvale. I lived in an apartment complex that had a drug dea,How are you going to take these calls more seriously? I am interested what these comments are going to be put toward? I remember being in a similar call with Chief Brown in 2016/2017 at the city library. Mos How often is professional development? Diversity training?? There,How often is professional development? Diversity training?? There's a diverse room of commissioners but how many are Salt Lake residents??? I feel lik Black lives matter,Defund the police is the same as re-invest with police in DV specialists, substance use specialists, harm reductionists, social workers, and social safet When officers have time to respond to calls, my experience has been great! But in the past 6 months, officers have seemed totally demoralized and understandably less motivated, like they're fighting a battle with crime and public safety that they can't win. What has the commission been working on since last summer?,Please include social media history in background checks for police. Please do this quarterly. You can tell a lot by what people post online or their gro I think they have been great Understanding that studies show that personal bias trainings actually can further entrench biases, what is the city's position on pursuing comprehensivel,I am a westside, Latina citizen... while most of the comments have been valuable... but, I do not feel as though issues of RACIAL equity have been considered Engage with the Center for Policing Equity Can we get the polls that were given at the beginning to the end of this meeting for latecomers Require officers to de-escalate situations, where possible, by communicating with subjects, maintaining distance, and otherwise eliminating the need to u I called for assistance at 3:00am, because a man was trying to get into my house. Dispatch told me the SLCPD was not in the area, and they would be at my address in about 20-30 minutes, then disconnected. I was distressed and scare, and not happy with my personal safety being dismissed. When the police arrived 30 minutes later, they reluctantly walked around my house, found a slashed screen on my door, but did not make a report as the man was no longer on my property. Another interaction was at the State Fair, talking to members of the SLCPD wearing riot gear, and asked if they were expecting issues. Was informed by an officer that the "union" couldn't endorse a mayoral candidate because of a perceived alignment with the Brown Berets and Black Lives Matter movements. My question was why weren't they?,SLCPD has an opportunity to build community relations by integration into the neighborhoods. There is a difference between law enforcement and not inflicting personal bias and agenda into the job.,Psychological vetting for all police, to be sure how they are able to do their jobs, without harming the community is very important. The resignation of officers after the mayor's police reform executive order this summer indicates a culture that avoids accountability for officer actions. This should be addressed by holding the department accountable through increased power for our independent civilian review board Policy-end qualified immunity, 8 can't wait, etc.. Training-barriers to transparency and convictions, school safety-resources and holistic approach to serving children and families, have them watch pushout and learn more about the school to prison pipeline, recruitment-let them know there are safe ways to report bad police officers and that they can change the structure of their department, make it real. If police insist on carrying lethal weapons around many different types of people and in many situations they are not properly trained for than they should have a decent amount of actual training in de-escalation, mental health mediation, implicit bias and cultural training. It has been mostly okay,however I have had interactions with SLCPD that made me question whether their intent was driven by policy or implicit bias. Their efforts didn't make it better and thus I wondered what the intent was as the stated reason for their actions didn't really add up. I'd like to see police trainings / school look more like a 4 year degree, like other professional jobs. It would help weed out the i Why is the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of the police not easily accessible? Or how do I gain access to it?,What kind of training do the police get for dealing with people who are on doctor prescribed drugs?
