is wondering if there is any plan to go back and fix the data or use the CJI data, which
had been cleaned up. Mr. Smith asked what the change in the police chief this
weekend may change in terms of compliance. Ms. Rotker said the timelines are not
contingent upon staff changes. Mr. Jansen asked if there's a central person in charge
of over-seeing the data. Assistant City Attorney (ACA) Wilson said that changes in
leadership shouldn't affect anything and there are now staff in place, including FPC
auditors. Mr. Jansen asked if there is one person who is in charge of the agreement
and the data - ACA Heather Hough said there are lead points of contact within the
police dept. and FPC. Inspector Boston-Smith noted that the data lags 6-9 months,
so the reports will be about a year behind real-time. Mr. Leon Todd, FPC, said one
auditor started last week and a second one will be hired. Ms. Rotker said that
questions in advance, in writing, would be appreciated so all parties can be better
prepared.
Ms. Rivera would like to have an agenda item on the next agenda "Status of the police
chief".
Chair Hamilton would like to have questions formulated for next month's meeting by
July 15th.
4. Approval of a Commission statement on the 6-month CJI report.
A statement will be formulated from the questions. The next meeting will be July 29th.
5. Decision on hiring Carlton Mayers.
Mr. Smith said Mr. Mayers would be engaged to be involved with the Community
Engagement Plan for a budget of $4,000; his model is that community is critically
involved. The process will be similar to Blueprint for Peace and heavily involve the
public. The FPC has charged MPD to collaborate in the development of this plan.
Mr. Jansen moved to allocate $4,000 from the commission's fund to pay the cost of a
presentation.
Mr. Royal moved to add a friendly amendment to hire Carlton Mayers to create a
Community Engagement Plan.
Mr. Jansen moved to hire Carlton Mayers as a consultant, to make a public
presentation, in the amount of $4,000 to advise on the development of the community
engagement plan. Seconded by Mr. Royal. There were no objections.
6. Update from the committees and add/remove members.
Mr. Smith, Policy Committee, said the Community Engagement Plan/Safety Plan was
discussed and the idea is to inform people how to participate. They had a meeting with
Jordan Primakow (Intergov. Relations) to review the state bills relating to police reform.
There are still some bills pending. Mr. Royal noted that a definition of "use of force" is
being sought; draft language was created by the Attorney General's office in the State
of New Jersey. Mr. Royal will e-mail the model language to Ms. Elmer to add to the file.
Mr. Royal is seeking support of the language from this body; this will be on the next
agenda.
Steve Jansen, Community Survey and Research Committee, said the new chair is
Paul Mozina. Mr. Mozina said the focus is on the community survey. The survey has
to be done independently and the CCC budget is under the City Clerk's Office. They
have created a draft resolution expressing the intention of the CCC to hire a consultant
and asking the Purchasing Dept. to issue an RFP. On the next agenda, they would
like to have the draft resolution approved. The draft resolution will be added to the file

once it is available. A community meeting may be held with the final 3 candidates with
those candidates taking questions from the public about how the survey will be
conducted. The CCC will narrow the candidates down to the final 3 and do the final vote
on who they wish the final candidate to be. The next meeting is July 12th. Ms. Orta
said that discussions need to start happening so the public feels involved. Mr. Mozina
would like a CCC statement on search warrants, which will be heard by the FPC on the
29th. He would like the Policy and Standards Committee to discuss this.
7. Update on the MPD Diversion Task Force by Jamaal Smith.
Mr. Smith said the first meeting was held last week. There is representation from
many different entities. The Task Force has a 6-month timeline. Mr. Jansen noted
there is a Milwaukee County Crisis Mobilization Team and he asked if the Task Force
connected with them.
8. Decision on meeting format (virtual, in-person or hybrid)
Meeting virtually works best for now.
