Summary

At the July 17 Chandler City Council meeting, resident Brook Beal described delayed police responses and discrepancies between his timelines and the city's call-for-service database for incidents along a city canal. The City Manager said staff will convene a subcommittee to investigate and provide answers.

Brook Beal, a Chandler resident, told the City Council on July 17 that police responses to reports of violations along a city canal were delayed and that the city's call-for-service records do not match his account of events.

Beal said he notified police while walking on the canal near Pine Lake Park and recorded a sequence of texts and timestamps that he said differ from entries in the department's database. "I arrived at, 04:24, let them know I had arrived. Call for service database says that someone arrived at 04:31, while I was sitting on the stone there on the bridge, and then I left 4 minutes later at or 3 minutes later at 04:34. Clearly, that's inaccurate information in the database," Beal said.
