Summary
The consent decree requires a community survey every two years about residents' experiences with police — but it hasn't been done in about eight years. The city asked the monitor to postpone it while running other surveys; councilmembers were not told, and are now pushing to fund it at roughly $100,000 in the 2027 budget.
