The Advisory Commission on Policing voted by voice vote to forward a draft letter to County Council President Fannie Gonzalez and the vice president summarizing the public forum and asking for cross‑committee collaboration.
Christy, who drafted the letter, said it opens with congratulations to the new Council leadership, summarizes the range of perspectives heard at the forum, and stresses that public safety is a combination of policing and other services that should be aligned across county programs.
"It's an opportunity for community members to share their concerns," Christy said, describing the letter's intent to highlight the forum's diverse perspectives and to offer the commission as a collaborative resource.
Eva moved to forward the letter; Henry seconded. The chair called for a voice vote: commissioners responded "aye," and no opposition or abstentions were recorded on the call. The subcommittee asked staff to finalize the document's formatting (font and letterhead) before transmission.
The commission also thanked members who contributed to the draft and directed staff to send the finalized letter to County Council for review.
