@LibbySchaaf Hi Mayor Schaaf, I am an Oakland resident urging you to defund OPD. It takes an enormous share of the city’s general fund, and that percentage has risen exponentially for the last two decades, taking away desperately needed resources from essential city services.
As Oakland residents, we, therefore, demand that you take immediate action to ensure the following:
1. Reduce OPD’s allocation from the General Fund by 50% (roughly $150 Million)
2. Disallow unauthorized overtime by OPD
3. Discontinue use of general fund dollars to pay for settlements due to police murder, misconduct, and negligence
4. Invest in housing, jobs, youth programs, restorative justice, and mental health workers to keep the community safe.
I'm in Council district 1, so I am CCing: @DanKalb

At Reimagining Public Safety Taskforce. On mobile so my tweets will be more sporadic. We have 2 #oakmtg (Appreciation) Club members on Advisory boards. But there are also 120 people on the Advisory Boards.
Aman Sebahtu says they are extending the timeline, but advisory boards are meeting 3x in 2020 & 1x in 2021. Still concerning. Rocky start to this meeting included not having enough space for all AB members as panelists & approval of mtg notes misinterpreted as roll call. #oakmtg
Ok, I was wrong. It's 130 advisory board members. #oakmtg

We've updated the voter guide to reflect this latest change, but Johnson’s candidate profile needs to be rewritten to incorporate this news. Thanks for your patience while we make our updates.

Better late than never #oakmtg

Mariano Contreras of the Latino Task Force makes comments on the CPA propsed changes to use of force policy:
1. must be clear that racial disparities impacts use of force and police must be clear on this
2. Must be a commitment to de-escalation
3. Encouraging officers to walk away instead of escalating
4. Officer can only use a proportional amount of force to a situation and cannot use vague language to wave it away
5. Less lethal weapons can only be used for immediate danger of serious injury
6. Violations of use of force will not be protected by qualified immunity"
7. No distinction between use of "objectively reasonable" force, just "necessary" force
8. Specialty impact weapons like wooden bullets to be recategorized as lethal use of force

Is everyone ready for a good ol' fashioned #oakmtg? Time for the Reimagining Public Safety Task Force. Let's see how this 19-person committee goes...
CM Bas kicks it off with a grand speech about redefining success, CM Taylor gives a slightly less grand speech, introduces Ed Reiskin, who hopes that between all 19 people, the task force can find common ground. I'm glad we can see everyone's faces.
Seems the City Administrator's office is providing resources to the task force. This is interesting since that office seems somewhat stretched thin and disorganized already? #oakmtg
