7/9 Public Safety Committee Workshop

Post by Greg Casar »

Colleagues,

Please see the agenda for tomorrow below. We’ll have short presentations on how we can reduce harm and increase safety in our community in new and powerful ways. We will have time to take two or three short questions per topic from Council in order to keep to the schedule. See you tomorrow.

-Greg
