My model is "everyone does have a role to play in violence prevention and public safety."
1) An anti-violence marketing campaign
2) Distributing cameras, tracking devices, gps to businesses and neighborhoods
3) Lighting, road improvements, addressing vacant lots
4) Revitalizing block clubs
5) Offering mental health skills trainings
1) Case 20PP2976 - find officer Angel Nunez guilty of domestic charges (missed the second part of this, something after domestic), and to discharge him. Voted in favor.
1) Rebecca (missed last name)- wrongly reported the discharge of a firearm, move to discharge her. Voted in favor.
2) Robert Cues - misconduct during an off duty domestic situation. He already resigned. Still voting in favor.
Officer Adolfo Villanos be discharged for wrongly firing, injuring Michael Elan. Officer Guillermo also did not request significant aid for Elan, up for discharge.
Clarification on process from Ghian Foreman:

15 areas, with 55 beats, account for 50 percent of city violence, Brown adds. Homicides down 37 percent in these areas he says.
Trying to work with other offices to meet needs like housing and employment insecurity.
The 3rd district got one, but not the 6th, he says.
What is going on with the Nikita Brown case, she asks.
