What: annual update on the Public Safety Partnership, the city program that implements 39 recommendations from the 2020-2022 law enforcement policy study.
Where it stands: at the 2026-10-13 council meeting, Andrea Grayson said 23 recommendations are fully implemented, 4 more are on track for 2026, and 11 evaluation programs have started.
Next: the program is moving into a long-term evaluation phase. No council vote was needed.

Three-year anniversary of the partnership (council, fire, police and residents). It grew from a 2020 resolution, a policy task force and community policing working group, and 39 recommendations presented to council in 2022; implementation began in 2023.
A steering committee must agree before a recommendation is fully implemented. An evaluation phase was added so programs are reviewed continuously.
Example: the youth enrichment program started as a pilot, was changed after evaluation, and attendance roughly doubled.
Programs named in the shown video: mobile integrated health care (housed in the fire department), crisis intervention training for every police academy recruit, youth outreach programs, and ward information sessions.
Craig Freeman introduced the item and praised her work on a program where implementation often involves disagreement.
