@CHIdocumenters The meeting began with roll call and public comment

@CHIdocumenters One commenter brought up the continuous harassment of a gallery owner in the community by police and called for a resolution to the harassment

@CHIdocumenters Another commenter asked about the procedure for replacing a chair member

@CHIdocumenters David Orlikoff replied that a public vote would need to be had in a meeting

@CHIdocumenters The next commenter agreed with others in having Christopher M. Laurent removed as the chair

@CHIdocumenters Neil asked if Orlikoff could handle the responsibilities of the chair if Laurent were to be removed which he replied that he could

@CHIdocumenters Orlikoff was asked by an attendee about his work in the movement to defund the police and how that affected his ability to be impartial

@CHIdocumenters He replied that he does have a bias and his main priority is not to be neutral, he says he follows facts, information, and material reality to make the best decision

@CHIdocumenters Another commenter pointed out that the commander not attending meetings has been upsetting. The commenter asked that whoever is in contact with the commander should emphasize the importance of coming to meetings.

@CHIdocumenters Someone else addressed this comment and said the commander is fully willing to attend, but because of her availability, there have been conflicts.

@CHIdocumenters David Orlikoff began updates. He said that he believes that Laurent is trying to use his power as chair to limit the number of meeting items

@CHIdocumenters Next, Orlikoff gave an update on traffic stops. There is an effort for the commission to create a policy for traffic stories, but it has become a consent decree, which makes the process more difficult

@CHIdocumenters All of the parties of the consent decree are on the same page, that it is ok for the CCPA to help with this policy but it is moving slowly and there are not yet rules on how the CCPA will be involved

@CHIdocumenters Orlikoff asked members to think about how they believe data about traffic stops should be used/ where it should be distributed and to share it with him before November 21st so it can be discussed in the next meeting

@CHIdocumenters He also alerted attendees on a new way to access documents related to the Illinois State Task Force and how to access them on an online bulletin board

@CHIdocumenters Next, the letter sent to Mayor Brandon Johnson by Color of Change that demanded the mayor fire the officers connected to white supremacist groups Find more info here: colorofchange.org/press_release/…

@CHIdocumenters There was a brief update on the amicus brief that the council signed up for. lawyers of the UFC and others organized this brief. This brief is advocating against private police arbitration.

@CHIdocumenters Next, CPD's rules for working with the district council were overviewed. Some of the rules included commanders offering to conduct check-in meetings between the leadership team and the council

@CHIdocumenters The meeting concluded at 2:24.
