VI. ENDORSEMENTS
• We’d like to invite candidates to our next meeting.

they are running and we will provide time for questions.

him to our next meeting.

our next meeting.
• Xandra will contact Ron Kuhnel and Jeff Leonard to invite
them to our next meeting.
• Jared will contact Nancy Abrams & Mike Jones.
• 4th District Supervisor – Bonnie Neely & Nancy
Flemming, Heidi will invite them.
• One question we want to ask them all – Do you support
police review – would you vote to create a commission?
VII. LEGISLATIVE AGENDA
• Wiki is too hard to work with. Xandra would like to go
through each issue and take them one at a time. She will pull
everything out and rebuild it on paper.
• Proposal to form a subcommittee of Xandra, David G, Heidi
to move the Legislative Agenda forward.
IX. POLICE REVIEW
• Xandra has petitions – deadline was missed for the
Nov. ballot, option is still available for a special election.
• Hannah suggested perhaps a “Citizen’s Cop
Watch” instead of Police Review Commission.
• Police Review Coalition is still collecting signatures
to try for a special election. The deadline is in October. Xandra
still has petitions, if people would like to help they should
contact her. She will bring them to the next meeting.
• Perhaps the better option would be to collect the signatures
and bring them to the City Council to pressure them to vote for
it without having to trigger a special election.
• One idea – submit videos of police misconduct on
cable access (this was David G’s idea).
NEXT MEETING is Wednesday, Sept 16th at 6:30pm at Heidi’s
house. 3 story green house. (SCHEDULE CHANGE!)
