City emergency services presented data showing growing calls to congregate care facilities and argued the volume is disproportionately using police and fire resources. Presenter (identified as the chief) said about 424 congregate-care sites generate roughly 1,439 calls in 2025 — about 15% of the department's 9,996 calls — and proposed exploring fee schedules and escalation to increase facility accountability.
