faced over $32 million in lawsuits, most of them due to excessive use of force. The
hope is the modified language will set parameters as to when the use of force is not
acceptable and other officers have a duty to step in and intervene. He is trying to set
up a virtual meeting on January 10th with New Jersey with various individuals about the
New Jersey language. He was anticipating this would be an informational meeting and
a chance to ask questions and have them answered. Mr. Baack said the full Policy
Committee has vetted this language, as presented, and does fully support it. Naomi
Gehling, Executive Director of the FPC, is able to check schedules of the FPC
Executive Director and board members.
Mr. Baack moved to approve the language, seconded by Mr. Smith. There were no
objections. The language will be forwarded to the FPC for its review.

language.
