In a recent government meeting, significant discussions centered around a subpoena authorization requested by the special counsel. The request was prompted by the lack of cooperation from Kevin Levy's private counsel, Chris Callahan, who declined to provide testimony and materials necessary for an ongoing investigation. The special counsel emphasized the urgency of the situation, noting that the subpoena would serve as a precautionary measure to ensure compliance if needed.
The subpoena authorization was added to the agenda and was expected to be addressed unanimously. It specifically seeks documents and testimony related to matters outlined in a letter sent to Levy's counsel a week prior. Despite the challenges, the city remains committed to cooperating fully with the investigation, having previously secured testimony from Commander Levy.
Additionally, the meeting included a reminder about an upcoming committee meeting focused on the noise ordinance, scheduled for 1 PM the same day. The discussions reflect ongoing efforts to navigate legal complexities while maintaining transparency and accountability within the city's governance.
