What: reconstituting the city's use of force committee after its members' terms expired.
Where it stands: a commissioner said on 2026-10-07 that members must be reappointed and an application period will open; a speaker asked for target dates.
Speakers said the committee was disbanded; a commissioner said it was reformed, not disbanded, and committed to re-engage it. Another noted its meetings dropped from four to two a year and called for revisiting its structure and scope. The city manager was asked about a police chief report on de-escalation policy for September 30 or October 7.
A commissioner reported the committee had lapsed, described required expertise and open seats, and said applications will be reviewed before the committee is re-established.
