Summary

During public comment at the Nov. 6 special Common Council session, resident Keith Fair described recent shootings and two murders in the city and asked city leaders to provide a public roadmap and more transparency about steps to stop the violence.

Keith Fair, a resident of Valley View Drive, used the public-comment period at the Nov. 6 special session of the City of Racine Common Council to press elected officials for more information about recent gun violence.

"In the last week, we've had two murders, shots fired all over the city, businesses being riddled with bullets," Fair said. He asked the mayor, the police chief or a public information officer to provide the community with a "road map" and "transparency and accountability" about what the city is doing to stop the violence.

Fair said residents are afraid to leave their homes and that clear information about city actions could help people feel safer. The transcript does not record a formal response from the mayor or police chief during the meeting.

The comment period was limited to three minutes and the clerk reminded speakers that remarks should focus on city matters and avoid personal attacks or campaigning.
