Aug 23, 2022 Baytown Police Advisory Committee

AND SO, GIMME JUST A MOMENT AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO COME UP.

SO THIS ITEM ON OUR AGENDA GIVES ALL INTERESTED PARTIES THE RIGHT TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS REGARDING POLICE OUTREACH, COMMUNITY POLICING, OFFICER TRAINING, AS WELL AS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES.

IT IS THE GOAL AND THE MISSION OF THIS COMMITTEE TO ENHANCE AND ENCOURAGE COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE RESIDENTS OF THE CITY AND TO PROVIDE VALUABLE COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CITY COUNCIL.

EVERYONE DESIRING TO SPEAK SHOULD HAVE EITHER SIGNED THE LIST IN THE FOYER OR EMAILED THE CITY CLERK PRIOR TO THE POSTED TIME OF THIS MEETING.

EACH PARTICIPANT SHALL GIVE HIS OR HER NAME AND ADDRESS IN ORDER TO PROVIDE A PROPER RECORD.

UH, THE RULES, UH, THE RULES ALLOW EACH PERSON THREE MINUTES TO PRESENT INFORMATION.

HOWEVER, I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO BE AS BRIEF AND TO THE POINT AS POSSIBLE.

ADDITIONALLY, PURSUANT TO OUR RULES, A PERSON REQUESTING TO ADDRESS THE COMMITTEE MAY NOT PASS HIS OR HER TIME TO ANOTHER AS WE WANT TO HEAR DIRECTLY FROM EACH INDIVIDUAL TODAY.

SO, MS. POWELL, IF YOU'D LIKE TO STEP UP TO THE PODIUM, AND IF AGAIN, IF FOR THE RECORD, IF YOU WOULD JUST STATE YOUR FULL NAME AS WELL AS YOUR ADDRESS.

SURE.

GOOD EVENING TO THE PANEL.

MY NAME IS CHRISTINA POWELL.

I LIVE AT 35 18 RED CEDAR DRIVE.

IT'S RIGHT OFF OF 1 46 AND FERRY ROAD.

UM, SO MY CONCERN IS FOR THE MOTEL 19, OR REBEL MOTEL, AS IT USED TO BE CALLED.

UM, WE HAVE NUMEROUS PEOPLE WALKING AROUND THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AT TWO OR THREE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING.

THEY'RE CHECKING CAR DOORS.

I HAD A WOMAN ACTUALLY COME TO MY DOOR AT 1230 THE OTHER NIGHT.

SHE WAS AT THE MOTEL, UM, ASKING TO USE THE PHONE.

THE POLICE WERE DISPATCHED, AND SO THERE WERE THREE POLICE OFFICERS THAT CAME AND ACTUALLY ADDRESSED THE SITUATION.

MY CONCERN IS WE HAVE A LOT OF CRIME IN THAT AREA.

THOSE PEOPLE ARE COMING FROM THE MOTEL.

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE TO CURTAIL SOME OF THAT CRIME AND DISSUADE SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE FROM WALKING INTO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.

AND, UM, YOU WANNA JUST HANG TIGHT? WE MIGHT HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS.

UH, I I WANT TO ASK A COUPLE QUESTIONS REAL QUICK.

DO YOU HAVE ANY TYPE OF VIDEO THAT YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO PASS ON TO, TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT? ABSOLUTELY.

THERE'S SEVERAL POLICE REPORTS.

UM, HAVE YOU, DO YOU HAVE ANY PREVIOUS, UH, INCIDENTS OF THAT IS, UH, RECORDED? UH, AS FAR AS MAYBE HAVING CALLED OUT AND HAVE AN INCIDENT OR A, I'M DRAWING A BLANK ON THE WORD I'M NEEDING.

SEVERAL POLICE REPORTS.

EL HEFE OVER HERE IS A LITTLE UNDER, UH, THE WEATHER TONIGHT.

SO I'M TRYING TO HELP ASK SOME OF THE QUESTIONS THAT HE MIGHT, UH, WANT.

BUT, UM, WHAT, WHAT WE WILL DO FOR YOU, MS. POWELL, IS UH, WE WILL HAVE SOMEONE FOLLOW UP WITH YOU.

I ACTUALLY HAVE A RESPONSE FOR YOU.

YOU HAVE A RESPONSE.

TURN YOUR MIC ON, PLEASE, SO WE CAN HEAR YOU.

UH, MA'AM, WE HAVE BEEN AWARE OF ACTIVITY THAT'S GOING ON OVER THERE.

WE, AS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE INCREASED SOME OF OUR PATROLS, UH, BUT WE'VE ALSO HAD SOME INVESTIGATIONS, UH, INVESTIGATIVE OPERATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN, UH,

[00:05:01]

IN THAT AREA.

AND WHEN YOU INQUIRED EARLIER MM-HMM .

WE WEREN'T IN A POSITION TO BE ABLE TO REVEAL THAT, BUT WE HAVE SINCE MADE ONE ARREST AND, UH, IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION, IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.

SO IT MAY LEAD TO OTHER INFORMATION, UH, THAT WILL HOPEFULLY POSITIVELY IMPACT THE, THE CITIZENS OF BAYTOWN.

SO WE ARE OVER THERE, EVEN WHEN YOU DON'T SEE US.

THERE'S PROBABLY SOME UN MARKS OVER THERE.

IS THERE ANY OPPORTUNITY TO DO LIKE A NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH WITH YOU GUYS? UM, I KNOW WE HAVE SEVERAL PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY THAT HAVE ASKED ABOUT THAT MM-HMM .

AND MAYBE THERE'S SOMEONE THAT WE NEED TO CONTACT IN THE DEPARTMENT TO GET THAT STARTED.

YES, MA'AM.

I'M GONNA LET CORPORAL LOOK AT US.

SO, YEAH, I WISH I HAD SOME CARDS WITH ME.

AM HAVE, AM I HAVE SOMEONE IN MY, IN MY CAR? OKAY.

SO AFTER THE MEETING, I'LL GET YOU A CARD AND YOU CAN JUST CONTACT ME AND WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT AND, AND, UH, MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO START ONE UP FOR YOU.

SOUNDS GOOD.

I APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU, MS. POWELL.

ALRIGHT.

THANK FOR YOUR TIME FOR COMING TO, UH, TO PROVIDE THAT INPUT.

THAT IS VERY VALUABLE INFORMATION.

ALRIGHTY, MS. RAQUEL, DO WE HAVE ANYBODY ELSE PENDING ON THAT, SIR? ALRIGHTY.

SO THERE BEING NO, NO ONE ELSE DESIRING TO SPEAK.

I WANT TO THANK MS. POWELL AND ANYBODY ELSE THAT WOULD WANT TO SPEAK, UH, FOR YOUR COMMENTS.

PLEASE BE ASSURED THAT THIS COMMITTEE HAS HEARD YOU AND WILL THOUGHTFULLY CONSIDER EACH MATTER RAISED AND WILL FORMULATE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER.

UH, BEFORE WE MOVE ON, I THINK, CHIEF, I THINK IT'D BE WISE IF WE, UH, DEFINITELY HAVE SOMETHING AT THE NEXT MEETING FOR THE COMMITTEE, JUST TO KIND OF KNOW WHAT, WHAT MIGHT BE HAPPENING, IF YOU CAN PROVIDE THAT, KNOWING THAT THERE'S AN ONGOING OPERATION INVOLVED.

SO, YEAH, AND, AND A LOT OF THAT'S JUST GONNA DEPEND ON WHAT THE OPERATION LOOKS LIKE AND, UM, THE, THE OPERATIONAL SECURITY.

WE'RE NOT CAREFUL.

WE PUT TOO MUCH OUT THEN THAT'S, IF WE KNOW COMPLETELY UNDERSTANDABLE.

WE UNDERSTAND.

THANK YOU, SIR.

JUST, JUST TO NOTE THAT THERE'S SOMETHING HAPPENING, I THINK IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR, ULTIMATELY.

A, AND THIS IS OUR COMMUNITY INPUT FROM THE COMMITTEE.

MOVING ON TO ITEM THREE

[a. Receive and discuss community input obtained by the Baytown Police Advisory Committee Members.]

AND WE'RE GOING TO RECEIVE AND DISCUSS ANY COMMUNITY INPUT OBTAINED BY THE BPAC MEMBERS.

SO ANY, ANY ISSUES THAT THAT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION? I I HAVE SOMETHING.

MR. HUNSINGER? I REPRESENT DISTRICT FOUR AND, UM, WE'VE HAD A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING THAT THE NEW ROAD GOES UP BEHIND THE MALL AREA, DOWN PARALLELS GARTH, THE, UM, SAN JACINTO SAN CENTER ROAD.

UM, A LOT OF SPEEDING GOING ON, SO I KNOW THAT THERE'S SOME PATROLS THAT HAVE BEEN OUT THERE, BUT, UM, MAYBE INCREASE THE PATROL AREA OR, YOU KNOW, LOOK AT THAT BECAUSE, UM, PEOPLE ARE STAYING OFF OF GARTH, BUT IN TRAFFIC'S GETTING HEAVIER.

A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE, THEY SAID THEY'RE, THEY'RE JOGGING AND THEY'RE DOING HEALTH EXERCISES ON THE BIKE TRAIL, AND THEY'RE JUST SEEING PEOPLE JUST TEAR UP AND DOWN THAT ROAD.

SO, UM, JUST ONE AREA OF CONCERN.

THAT'S THE ONLY REAL AREA THAT THEY BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION AFTER LOOKING AT A RECENT MAP.

SOME OF THAT IS NOT CITY OF BAYTOWN, AM I CORRECT, CHIEF OR DR.

CORPORAL? YEAH, YOU GUYS CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT I THINK THERE'S SOME AREAS WHERE IT KIND OF JUMPS IN AND OUT, JUST, UH, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE ON THE MAP.

UM, BUT I BELIEVE THAT THE, THE ROADWAY ITSELF IS, IS ALL CITY OF BAYTOWN.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAP, I THINK YOU'VE GOT SOME PARCELS OFF THE ROADWAY THAT ARE NOT IN CITY LIMITS, BUT I THINK THE ROADWAY IS.

I'VE NOTICED OFFICERS PARKED DOWN TOWARD THE I 10, BUT COMING UP AROUND THAT CURB PAST THE APARTMENTS, THERE'S NOT THAT MANY PEOPLE THERE.

THAT'S APPARENTLY WHERE PEOPLE ARE DOING A LOT OF THEIR BIKING AND EXERCISING, SO, OKAY.

TO FOUR A, WHICH IS GOING TO BE STARTING OUR BUSINESS ITEMS. AND WE ARE GOING TO CONS, UH, FOUR A IS CONSIDERED THE ADOPTION OF AN ELECTION POLICY FOR BAC MS. JARRIS.

AND THAT'S ALL THE INPUT I HAD NOTED.

ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANYTHING? I, ALL RIGHTY.

WE'RE THEN WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON.

AND THAT IS THREE A.

SO WE'RE GONNA MOVE ON

[a. Consider the adoption of an election policy for the Baytown Police Advisory Committee.]

I WILL TURN IT OVER TO YOU.

UM, SO THAT'S UP TO YOU GUYS TO DECIDE HOW YOU WANNA PROCEED ON THAT.

UM, BASICALLY WHAT I PRESENTED TO YOU GUYS IS OPTION ONE AND OPTION TWO.

UH, THE CRITERIA THAT WE WEREN'T REALLY QUITE SETTLED ON HAS TO DO WITH WHEN THERE'S A TIE.

UM, AND SO I'VE GIVEN TWO OPTIONS THAT I WAS AWARE OF, BUT OBVIOUSLY IF YOU GUYS COME UP WITH A THIRD OPTION, WE COULD, WE COULD ENTERTAIN THAT AS WELL.

UM, SO IT IS, UH, LET'S SEE HERE.

GG THANK YOU.

UH, G SO WE HAD THE COIN TOSS, AND THEN WE HAD THE SUGGESTION OF, WELL, THE HAT, BUT I DIDN'T CALL IT A HAT.

I CALLED IT A CONTAINER.

'CAUSE WE PROBABLY WON'T REALLY USE A HAT, BUT ANYWAY, SO, UH, WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS ON WHAT TO DO, UH, IF THERE IS A TIE.

[00:10:01]

UH, ACTUALLY, I NEED TO BACK UP, BECAUSE THIS BEING AN ITEM THAT WE TABLED, WE ACTUALLY HAVE TO HAVE A RESOL, UH, HAVE TO HAVE A MOVEMENT, A MOTION TO MOVE IT OFF THE TABLE.

BACK ONTO THIS.

WELL, BECAUSE IT IS ON THE AGENDA.

I, DID WE USE THE WORD TABLE? I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T RECALL.

I THINK WE JUST POSTPONED IT, WHICH WE HAVE IT ON THE AGENDA, SO WE'RE GOOD.

OKAY, ALRIGHTYY.

SO, UH, THANK YOU FOR CLARIFICATION.

UM, SO DO WE HAVE SOME DISCUSSION ON EITHER OPTION AND THEN WE WILL VOTE ON OPTION ONE OR OPTION TWO IN JUST A MOMENT? SO ANY DISCUSSION FOR, FOR CONSIDERATION? DR.

STANSKI? I'M JUST INTO MAKING TROUBLE THIS WEEK.

UM, A THIRD OPTION COULD POSSIBLY BE THAT THE, UM, CHAIRMAN OF THE COMMITTEE, UM, WITHHOLDS THEIR VOTE AND IF THERE'S A TIE, THEY BREAK THE TIE BY, THEY BREAK THE TIE BECAUSE THEIR VOTE WILL, THEY'LL BE GONE.

IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING? WELL, I MEAN, IF, IF YOU'VE GOT, IF WE'VE GOT A NINE MEMBER COMMITTEE AND EVERYBODY WAS PRESENT TO WIN, UM, YOU WOULDN'T EVER HAVE A TIE.

BUT IF, IF BY SOME CHANCE YOU GET SOMEBODY ABSENT OR SOMETHING, UM, OR TWO PEOPLE ABSENT, THEN YOU MIGHT HAVE A TIE AND THEN THE CHAIRPERSON COULD BREAK THE TIE.

THEIR VOTE WOULD BREAK THE TIE.

SO THEIR VOTE WOULD, WOULD BREAK THE TIE.

BUT YOU DON'T COUNT THEIR VOTE UNTIL THEY HAVE TO BREAK A TIE.

SO YOU'RE, YOU'RE IN, IN ESSENCE, YOU'RE SUBMITTING A THIRD OPTION YES.

FOR CONSIDERATION.

SO THEN WE WOULD NEED TO, SO YOU'RE, HOW, HOW DO YOU WANT, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO WORD THAT SO THAT WE CAN MAKE A FORMAL MOTION ON OPTION NUMBER THREE? UM, I WOULD SAY THE COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN'S VOTE IS NOT COUNTED UNLESS THERE'S A TIE.

SO WE'VE GOT A THIRD AMENDMENT.

I'M TRYING TO, I'M, I'M RUNNING DOWN ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDER IN MY HEAD.

SO GIMME JUST A MINUTE, A THIRD OPTION.

AND I'M LOOKING OVER AT, AT, AT THE LEGAL, UH, PERSON OVER HERE.

SO THE THIRD OPTION HAS BEEN PLACED ON THE TABLE.

SO WE'VE GOT AN AMENDMENT TO, UM, OUR BUSINESS ITEM A, WHEREAS THE AGENDA STATES OPTION ONE AND OPTION TWO, BUT THE THIRD OPTION IS BEING PRESENTED AND WE NEED TO VOTE AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THE COMMITTEE WILL ACCEPT THE THIRD OPTION.

I'M SAYING IT IN GENERAL TERMS RIGHT NOW.

UM, SO DO WE NEED TO DISCUSS THIS OR DOES YOU, WELL, WHAT YOU, WHAT YOU NORMALLY WOULD DO IS SOMEBODY WOULD MAKE A MOTION LIKE, UM, DR. MAY WANNA MAKE A MOTION, UH, THAT YOU MAKE A MOTION TO FILE OPTION ONE.

YOU CAN JUST NAME ONE.

OPTION ONE WITH THE, UH, AMENDMENT OF G AND THEN STATE WHAT YOUR AMENDMENT IS, AND THEN SEE IF THERE'S A SECOND.

AND THEN AT THAT POINT YOU'D WANNA DISCUSS.

SO DO YOU WANNA AMEND ONE OPTION, ONE OR TWO, DR.

SCANTY? THEY'RE ALMOST THE SAME.

LET ME GO AHEAD AND SAY I'M GONNA AMEND OPTION TWO.

AND INSTEAD OF HAVING A NAME DRAWN, PUT THAT THE PRESIDING OFFICER OR THE, THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF THE COMMITTEE WOULD NOT VOTE, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF A TIE.

SO THAT'S THE MOTION.

DO I HAVE, OKAY, SO YEAH, JUST SO I'M CLEAR TOO, IF, IF YOU DON'T MIND, UM, THAT THAT PERSON, WE ARE NOT GONNA KNOW IN ADVANCE THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE A TIE.

RIGHT? RIGHT.

SO WOULD THE, WOULD THE, UM, THE VOTE WOULD BE HELD OUT THE VOTE, BUT HOW WOULD WE KNOW IN ADVANCE TO HOLD OUT THAT PERSON'S VOTE? DO YOU WANT THEM TO NOT HAVE A VOTE IN ANY OF THE ELECTIONS? RIGHT.

SO THEY WOULD NOT VOTE FOR ANY OF THEM UNLESS THERE WAS A TIE AND THEN THEY WOULD BE, IT'S KINDA LIKE THE VICE PRESIDENT, RIGHT? THEY WOULD, OKAY.

THEY WOULD HAVE A VOTE IF THERE WAS A TIE.

UNDERSTOOD.

I THINK, I THINK THE CHAIRMAN WOULD HAVE JUST A LITTLE DISCUSSION.

I THINK THE CHAIRMAN WOULD HAVE A LITTLE MORE, UM, BACKGROUND ON THE VOTES HAPPENING THAN A COIN OR NAMES BEING PUT IN A HAT OR IN A BAG, WHATEVER.

I, I WOULD, YOU KNOW, I WOULD RATHER THOSE THINGS BE DECIDED BY A CHAIR THAN A ALL RIGHT.

50 50 CHANCE.

SO I HAVE A QUESTION.

WE, WE NEED TO VOTE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE, WE NEED SECOND ON THE COMMITTEE.

WE'LL, SECOND ON ON THIS REAL QUICK.

WE NEED A SECOND ON MY MOTION.

HAVE TO HAVE MORE DISCUSSION.

WELL, BUT I DON'T WANT TO VOTE ON HER MOTION UNTIL I FIGURE OUT UNDERSTAND, BUT I NEED A SECOND.

YEAH, WE, WE HAVE, WELL, YOU COULD MAKE ANOTHER MOTION IF YOU PREFERRED ONE OF THESE OTHER OPTIONS.

YOU COULD YOU TELL ME.

OKAY, NOW WE ALL IN FAVOR TO, EXCEPT THE NO, WE

[00:15:01]

NOW WE'RE GONNA HAVE THE DISCUSSION.

BE ALL IN FAVOR YET? I'M SORRY.

I WAS .

WE CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION.

SO DISCUSSION.

THERE WE GO.

OKAY, SO NOW CAN I ASK THAT QUESTION? YES.

DON'T WE, DON'T WE VOTE FOR THEM AT THE SAME TIME? OR ARE WE LOOKING AT HAVING TWO ? NO, IF YOU READ THIS, IT HAS, YOU DO THE, THE, THE TOP POSITION AND THEN YOU GO DOWN THE BALLOT IN EACH VOTE SEPARATELY.

IT'S NOT ALL AT THE SAME TIME.

THAT'S WHAT WE DECIDED.

WELL, NO, IT'S ON THIS PAGE.

EVERYTHING.

I BEEN A MINUTE SINCE THE LAST TIME I, YEAH.

IN OUR PRIOR DISCUSSIONS IT WAS PERVER PREFERRED BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T DO IT THAT WAY, YOU MAY HAVE A PERSON THAT DOESN'T WIN.

THE CHAIR.

AND THEN THEY MAY WANNA RUN THROUGH VICE CHAIR OR SOMETHING.

SO I'M GLAD I MOTIONED TO SECOND CLARIFY.

ALRIGHTY.

I'D LIKE TO YES, POINT HERE.

SO I'M NOT IN FAVOR WITH DR.

SCAN'S ROLE ONLY BECAUSE WE'RE A NINE MEMBER PANEL EACH REPRESENTING A SEPARATE DISTRICT.

SO THAT WOULD BE TAKING ONE DISTRICT'S VOICE OUT OF THE VOTE, UNLESS THERE'S A TIE.

AND I JUST FEEL THAT THAT UNDERREPRESENTS A DISTRICT, WHATEVER DISTRICT HAS HAPPENED TO BE THE CHAIR AT THAT POINT IN TIME.

SO I'M NOT IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION TO AMEND, BUT THAT DISTRICT WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE A BIGGER VOTE, NOT ABOUT SIZE.

IF THEY HAD TO BREAK A TIE.

FOR ME, IT'S NOT ABOUT SIZE, IT'S ABOUT REPRESENTATION.

I DON'T WANT SOMEBODY TO HAVE MORE SWAY THAN ANOTHER.

I THINK THAT THIS IS A REPRESENTATIVE BODY OF INDIVIDUAL DISTRICTS, UNLIKE THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE WHERE THE, UM, VICE PRESIDENT WOULD BE THE TIEBREAKER.

THIS IS A MUCH SMALLER BODY WITH, I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE MORE REPRESENTATIVE OF EACH PERSON AND, AND JUST, IN MY OPINION.

SO, SO YOU'D RATHER HAVE THE WINNER BE DETERMINE 50 50 CHANCE, UH, IT'S AS GOOD AS ANYTHING ELSE.

GIVE MORE RESPECT TO THE CHAIR.

ALRIGHT.

SO ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL RIGHTY.

SO WE'RE GOING TO VOTE ON THE AMENDMENT TO OPTION TWO, TWO AS TO WHETHER OR NOT WE WILL ACCEPT IT OR NOT.

SO IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF ACCEPTING THE AMENDMENT TO OPTION TWO, ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

AYE.

ALL OPPOSED? SAME SIGN.

AYE.

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO SAY NAY, NAY, NAY, , NAY.

THE NAYS CARRY IT.

OKAY, SO THE AMENDMENT FAILS.

FAILS.

SO NOW WE HAVE, WE GO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL, UM, PRINTING OF OPTION ONE AND OPTION TWO.

SO DO WE HAVE ANY DISCUSSION? YOU WANT TO, UH, HAVE SOMEBODY MAKE A MOTION AND THEN GET A SECOND AND THEN YOU CAN DISCUSS BASED ON WHAT THAT MOTION IS? WE DON'T HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR RIGHT NOW.

I MOTION I'M GONNA BEAT HIM.

I HAVE A MOTION AND I'M GONNA SECOND .

WAIT A MINUTE.

FOR THE MOTION.

YOU HAVE TO SAY WHICH ONE REFERRING.

I'M, WAIT, WHAT? YOU GOTTA PICK ONE OR TWO.

WE'VE STILL GOT TWO THINGS WE WANT.

OH, I THOUGHT I WAS MOTIONING THAT WE'RE GONNA ACCEPT THE TWO OPTIONS AS OPTIONS.

YEAH, THAT WAS MY SECOND WAS FOR BOTH OF THEM.

THEY CONTRADICT EACH OTHER.

YEAH, SAME THING.

IT'S 50 50 DRAW, I MEAN.

CAN YOU MOTION TO DISCUSS THE OULU? YEAH.

WHOEVER WANTS TO MAKE A MOTION WOULD NEED TO PICK ONE AND MAKE A MOTION FOR THAT.

SOMEBODY WOULD NEED TO SECOND, THEN YOU GUYS CAN HAVE A DISCUSSION AND THEN, UM, THEN YOU CAN VOTE AGAIN.

DR.

BRANDON, YOU HAD A MOTION? I'M GONNA MOTION FOR OPTION ONE, I GUESS.

SO OPTION ONE IS ON THE TABLE.

DO WE HAVE DISCUSSION FOR OPTION NUMBER ONE? CAN I ASK A QUESTION THAT INVOLVES BOTH OF THEM? IF WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT ONE OF 'EM? N NO, YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND DISCUSS, BECAUSE IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT TWO, YOU'RE PROBABLY SAYING THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T LIKE ONE.

I'M JUST LOOKING, I MEAN, THE ONLY THING THAT'S DIFFERENT IS G THAT IS CORRECT, SIR.

YEAH, IT ALL WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS DRAWING A NAME OR A COIN, A CONTAINER DRAWING OR A COIN TOSS IS WHAT WE'RE DOWN TO AT THIS POINT.

JUST WANNA MAKE SURE I WAS UNDERSTANDING THIS RIGHT? CORRECT.

SO AGAIN, I'M LOOKING OVER TO YOU.

HOW DO WE, HOW DO WE NEED TO VOTE? BECAUSE DO YOU NEED A MOTION ON OPTION TWO TO, UH, WE DON'T, UH, RIGHT NOW WE'VE GOT A MOTION ON OPTION ONE, AND SO WE CAN TAKE A VOTE AND THOSE THAT ARE SUPPORTING IT.

AND THEN THOSE THAT DO NOT SUPPORT IT.

AND SO WE'RE VOTING EXCLUSIVELY ON OPTION ONE, CORRECT? THAT'S CORRECT.

IT'S THE MOTION WE HAVE ON THE TABLE.

ONE OF THE ELECTION PROCEDURES HAS BEEN CARRIED AND WILL BE UTILIZED IN THE NEXT ELECTION PROCESS FOR CHAIR AND CO-CHAIR OF BAY BAYTOWN POLICE ADVISORY COMMITTEE.

THE MOTION THAT WE HAVE ON THE TABLE IS REGARDING OPTION ONE FOR THE ELECTION PROCEDURES.

IF YOU ARE IN FAVOR OF ADOPTING AND ACCEPTING OPTION ONE, SAY AYE.

AND THE AYES HAVE IT.

THERE WE GO.

SO OPTION

[00:20:01]

DOES THAT COVER THERE? THAT IS COVERED.

IT WILL BECOME 2.8 ON OUR LIST OF, UH, RULES, UH, FOR THIS COMMITTEE.

AND THEN THE, UH, UH, DOES, DOES ANYBODY WANT, I MEAN, I, UH, MR. SPRINGER, SORRY.

GET YOU GUYS CONFUSED HERE.

UM, DO YOU EVEN HAVE A COPY OF OUR RULES? DID YOU GET A COPY? UH, WHICH RULES? UH, RULES, I'M GUESSING NO.

, PROBABLY NOT.

NO.

BASICALLY THERE ARE RULES, UH, FOR, I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER WHAT WE CALLED THEM.

I DON'T REMEMBER IF THEY WERE, UH, RULES OF PROCEDURE IS WHAT WE CALL THEM FOR THIS COMMITTEE.

AND SO I'M GONNA ADD THE 2.8 WITH, WITH THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE.

WE'LL, WE'LL WORK TOGETHER AND ADD 2.8 AT THE BOTTOM, AND THEN IF EVERYBODY WANTS A COPY, IF YOU'RE, IF THAT'S WHAT YOU GUYS WOULD PREFER, I'LL SEND EVERYBODY A COPY.

WELL, IF YOU'RE GONNA UPDATE IT, I WOULD REQUEST IT.

YEAH, I WAS GONNA SAY VERY GOOD FOR THE, ESPECIALLY FOR THE NEXT, THE NEXT SITTING COMMITTEE.

EXACTLY.

IT WOULD BE, IT WOULD BE WISE TO HAVE A GOOD BRAND NEW PACKET WITH UPDATED INFORMATION AND ALL OF THAT.

ALRIGHTY.

MOVING ON TO FOUR B, AND WE'RE GOING TO RECEIVE A PRESENTATION AND DISCUSS THE CIT AND THE CORE MENTAL HEALTH, UH, UPDATES.

SO RETURN TO EL HEFE AND COMPANY, AND HE CAME IN AT THE RIGHT TIME.

LIEUTENANT STEVE DORIS WILL PROVIDE A UPDATE ON OUR CIT.

UH, YOU REALLY DID WALK IN AT THE RIGHT TIME OR BACK IN, HE WANTED TO MAKE A GRAND, HE KNOW HE DID MAKE A GRAND INJURY.

YOU LEARNED THAT AT THE FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY .

I'M SKILLED THAT WAY.

GIVE US SOME GOOD NEWS.

I HAVE MY POWERPOINT.

DID WE GET TO SEE THAT ON THESE SCREENS OR DO WE RED BUTTON.

IF YOU PUSH THE RED BUTTON.

OH, PUSH THE RED BUTTON.

I THINK SOMEBODY DID SOME COLORING.

THERE WE GO.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX THAT FROM HERE.

YEAH, THAT'S THE, UH, THAT'S THE OTHER PRESENTATION FOR THE NEXT ONE FOR LIEUTENANT OSA.

THAT'S THE ONE.

I'M GONNA SAVE IT ON THE Q LINE.

NO, UNDER PRESENTATIONS.

GPC.

CAN

[b. Receive a presentation and discuss the CIT/CORE Mental Health Update.]

Y'ALL HEAR ME? MM-HMM .

YES, SIR.

IN MIND, PRIOR TO APRIL OF LAST YEAR, WE REALLY DIDN'T TRACK MENTAL HEALTH RELATED CALLS.

UM, AS ALWAYS, I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME IN AND, AND VISIT WITH Y'ALL AND TALK TO Y'ALL, TO Y'ALL A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM AND KIND OF WHAT WE'RE DOING, UM, WHERE WE'VE, WHAT WE'VE GOTTEN TO SO FAR ANYWAY.

UM, SO AS MOST OF YOU KNOW, OUR, UH, CIT PROGRAM, UH, WAS REALLY KIND OF CAME TO FRUITION IN APRIL OF 2021.

UH, SINCE THEN, WE'VE RESPONDED TO 472 MENTAL HEALTH RELATED CALLS.

SO THAT'S JUST, UM, YOU KNOW, ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF, I GUESS.

NOW, IF MY MATH IS RIGHT, MAYBE A LITTLE LESS, WHICH AVERAGES OUT TO ABOUT 31 PER MONTH OR ONE A DAY.

UM, YOU KNOW, SOME DAYS, OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE MORE.

SOME DAYS WE MAY NOT HAVE NONE, BUT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, IT'S AT LEAST ONE A DAY.

OF THOSE 472, UH, 113 OF THEM HAVE BEEN REPEAT CALLS, UH, WHICH IS A RECIDIVISM RATE OF ABOUT 23.9, 24%.

UH, WHICH ALL IN ALL, THAT'S NOT REALLY A, A TOO BAD OF A NUMBER.

IT'S ACTUALLY A PRETTY GOOD NUMBER.

OBVIOUSLY, WE'D LIKE TO GET THAT LOWER.

AND HOPEFULLY, AS, AS THE, UH, TIME GOES ON AND WE GET MORE DATA AND WE RESPOND TO MORE OF THESE CALLS AND GET MORE INFORMATION OUT, THAT NUMBER WILL, UH, WILL GO DOWN.

180 OF THE 472 CONSUMERS HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ARRESTED BY BBPD OVER THE PROCEEDING 10 YEARS.

UM, SO KEEP

[00:25:01]

SO IT'S REALLY HARD TO DETERMINE IF ANY OF THOSE ARRESTS PREVIOUSLY HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH A MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE, OR, OR WAS IT JUST, UH, THAT WAS THE WAY WE, WE, WE HANDLED THOSE CALLS BACK THEN.

AND SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2021, UM, THAT'S ACTUALLY WHEN WE ACTUALLY, WHEN WE RECEIVED OUR MENTAL HEALTH DECALS, WE'VE HANDED OUT ABOUT 40 OF THOSE SO FAR.

UH, ACTUALLY ABOUT 43.

'CAUSE WE HANDED THREE OUT A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER I, I MADE THIS.

UH, SOME OF THOSE HAVE BEEN PEOPLE CALLING US, WANTING THEM.

SOME OF MOST OF THEM HAVE BEEN WHEN WE RESPOND TO CALLS TO MENTAL HEALTH RELATED CALLS.

AND OUR, OUR OFFICERS, OUR MENTAL HEALTH OFFICERS AND OUR CORE OFFICERS, UH, ARE TALKING TO THE FAMILIES AND MAKING THESE AVAILABLE TO 'EM.

THAT'S, UH, HOW MOST OF THOSE ARE GETTING HANDED OUT.

UH, SPEAKING SPECIFICALLY ABOUT CORE, AGAIN, AS, AS MOST OF YOU ALL KNOW, THAT DECEMBER 9TH, 2021, UH, WAS WHEN WE ACTUALLY, THAT WENT LIVE.

UH, WE TRAINED 20 OFFICERS ON THE CORE IPADS.

UM, AND I, I THINK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IT BEFORE.

WITHIN 20 MINUTES OF THE, OUR INITIAL TRAINING ON THOSE THINGS, IT WAS DEPLOYED AND HAD A SUCCESSFUL RESOLUTION FOR A, UH, A MILITARY VETERAN THAT WAS SUFFERING FROM A MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS.

BUT DURING THE FIRST SIX MONTHS OF CORE BEING INCORPORATED INTO OUR PROGRAM, UH, IT'S BEEN DEPLOYED ABOUT 71 TIMES.

UH, SO WE, WE USE IT PRETTY HEAVILY.

UM, ABOUT HALF OF THOSE HAVE RESULTED IN EDS BEING FILED AND THE OTHERS ARE RESOLVED ON SCENE.

UH, REALLY AND TRULY WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR, AND FROM THE MENTAL HEALTH SIDE OF THINGS IS FOR US TO BE ABLE TO RESOLVE THOSE ON SCENE, UH, TO KEEP PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, UH, I DON'T WANNA SAY OUT OF THE SYSTEM, BUT OUT OF THE HOSPITALS, OUT OF THE JAILS.

UH, WHEN WE RESOLVE THOSE THINGS ON SCENE, WHAT THAT TELLS ME IS THAT WE'RE PROVIDING THE FAMILIES WITH SOME DIRECTION, UH, SOME, SOME GUIDANCE, SOME, UM, UH, TOOLS IN THEIR TOOL BELT, UH, TO DEAL WITH THEIR ISSUES, UH, WITH THEIR LOVED ONES.

UM, OBVIOUSLY THERE'S ABOUT HALF OF THOSE WIND UP WITH EDS.

UM, AGAIN, ONCE WE GET THEM IN THE HOSPITAL, OR I'M SORRY, ONCE WE DEPLOY THE CORE TABLET WITH 'EM, THEY GET INTO THE LOOP OF GETTING THOSE RESOURCES THAT THEY NEED, UH, THROUGH OTT.

SO THOSE ARE, TO ME, THOSE ARE ALL SUCCESSES.

EMERGENCY DETENTION ORDER.

YEAH, , THAT'S THE LEGAL MECHANISM BY WHICH WE TAKE POSSESSION OF SOMEBODY AND FORCE THEM TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL.

UM, AND IN EACH OF THOSE 71 CASES, UH, THE FAMILIES OF THE, OR THE CONSUMER AND OR THEIR FAMILY WAS PROVIDED WITH RESOURCES TO FACILITATE EXTENDED CARE.

SO, AGAIN, TO ME, EVERY ONE OF THOSE CASES IS, IS A SUCCESS BECAUSE WE ARE, WE'RE NOT JUST GOING TO THESE CALLS AND, AND, UH, YOU KNOW, PUTTING PEOPLE IN JAIL OR TAKING 'EM TO THE HOSPITAL AND FORGETTING ABOUT 'EM.

UH, WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST TO GET THE FAMILIES INVOLVED WITH THE EXTENDED CARE.

AND WE DO THAT BY GIVING THEM GUIDANCE AND OFFERING THEM RESOURCES, UH, POINTING 'EM IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

UH, AGAIN, ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT CAME UP WAS ABOUT SUICIDES.

UH, SINCE THE INCEPTION OF THE CIT, UH, AGAIN, WHICH WAS DECEMBER, UH, I MEAN APRIL OF LAST YEAR, UH, WE RESPONDED TO 12 SUICIDES AND SIX ATTEMPTED SUICIDES.

UM, OF THE SIX ATTEMPTED SUICIDES, OUR CIT OFFICERS PROVIDED DIRECT INTERVENTION AND FIVE OF THOSE, UH, RESULTING IN THE CONSUMER GETTING ON THE PATH TO HELP THEY NEED, AGAIN, WHETHER THAT'S, UH, MOST OF THOSE HAVE BEEN JUST US, UH, SHOWING UP WHEN SOMEBODY'S TALKING ABOUT IT, AND OUR OFFICERS SPENDING SOME TIME WITH 'EM TO TALK 'EM OFF THAT PROVERBIAL LEDGE, UM, AND THEN GETTING THEM POINTED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR HELP.

UH, ONE OF THE ATTEMPTS WAS A DIRECT SAVE BY ONE OF OUR DETENTION OFFICERS.

UH, A GENTLEMAN TRIED TO COMMIT SUICIDE WHILE IN OUR JAIL, AND THE DETENTION OFFICER SAW IT AND INTERVENED AND WAS ABLE TO SAVE THE, THE, THE INDIVIDUAL'S LIFE.

AND ONCE AGAIN, WE GET THEM INTO THE SYSTEM TO GET SOME HELP OF THOSE SIX ATTEMPTS.

UM, THIS WAS KIND OF AN INTERESTING THING TO ME.

NONE OF THOSE HAVE MADE A SECOND ATTEMPT TO DATE.

ESPECIALLY FROM A SUICIDE.

UH, WHICH IS A GOOD THING.

THAT MEANS THAT OUR INTERVENTION IS WORKING.

AND OF THE 12TH SUICIDES THAT WE'VE HAD, UH, SINCE APRIL OF LAST YEAR, ONLY ONE OF THOSE MADE A PREVIOUS ATTEMPT.

AND THAT WAS IN 2020, UH, PRIOR TO US, UH, ACTUALLY IMPLEMENTING OUR, UH, MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM.

AND IN THE SAME TIMEFRAME, THE CALENDAR YEAR, 2020 TO 2021, THERE WERE 14 SUICIDES AND, AND 12 ATTEMPTED SUICIDES.

SO IT LOOKS LIKE THAT NUMBER HAS COME DOWN, AND HOPEFULLY THAT'S A TREND THAT'S GONNA CONTINUE.

UM, YOU KNOW, HONESTLY, I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MANY SUICIDES WE HAD IN BAYTOWN UNTIL I WAS OVER OUR HOMICIDE UNIT, AND WE RESPONDED TO EVERY DECEASED PERSON.

AND THEN YOU START TO REALIZE PRETTY QUICK HOW MANY PEOPLE PASS AWAY IN BAYTOWN, UH,

[00:30:01]

UM, BUT ONE OF THE OTHER INTERESTING THINGS, JUST KIND OF ANTICIPATING QUESTIONS, UH, THE MOST COMMON MECHANISM FOR SUICIDE IS GUNSHOT.

THAT'S THE MOST COMMON MECHANISM.

WE'VE HAD A, I THINK A FEW OF THOSE WERE WHERE THE INDIVIDUALS HUNG THEMSELVES, BUT BY FAR, BY FAR THE MOST COMMON MECHANISM IS, IS, UH, IS GUNSHOT.

SO THAT IS MY PRESENTATION.

ANY QUESTIONS I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER? I, I'M JUST CURIOUS, I THINK THIS IS MORE, MORE OF A CURIOSITY QUESTION, BUT OF THESE IN REGARD TO THE CIT AND THE CORE, UH, WITH, IN REGARD TO THE SUICIDES, UM, WHAT, WHAT RESOURCES, HOW QUICKLY, IF ANY, DOES THE BPD HAVE TO GIVE TO THE FAMILIES? WELL, UM, SO IF WE RESPOND TO AN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE AND WE MAKE AN INTERVENTION, OBVIOUSLY THE FIRST THING THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN IS THAT CONSUMER IS GOING TO BE EDD.

THEY'RE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL FOR PSYCHIATRIC EVALUATION.

THAT'S NOT GONNA BE A NEGOTIABLE THING.

UM, THE, THE SECOND THING THAT WE DO, ALL OF OUR MENTAL HEALTH AND COURT OFFICERS HAVE CARDS, UM, THAT THEY CAN ACTUALLY GIVE THE, THE CONSUMERS FAMILY, UM, ON THAT CARD IS SOME, UH, SOME PRIMARY NUMBERS, SOME HOTLINE NUMBERS THAT THEY CAN CONTACT, UM, AS WELL AS A QR CODE THAT THEY CAN SCAN WITH THEIR PHONE THAT TAKES THEM DIRECTLY TO KO'S MENTAL HEALTH SITE.

THERE, YOU KNOW, CHIEF'S GOT ONE IN HIS POCKET.

UM, AND SO THAT'S, THAT'S OUR PRIMARY SOURCE OF GIVING THEM, UH, UH, GIVING THEM INFORMATION, GIVING THEM RESOURCES THAT WAY AN IDEAL BEHIND THOSE CARDS.

THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WORKED WITH, UH, OUR MENTAL HEALTH COALITION ON.

THE IDEAL BEHIND THOSE CARDS IS THAT EVERYBODY'S GETTING THE SAME INFORMATION.

YOU KNOW, HISTORICALLY, I MAY KNOW A COUPLE OF RESOURCES.

CHIEF MAY KNOW, LIEUTENANT EVANS MAY KNOW, CORPORAL O CON MAY KNOW A FEW.

AND IT'S ALL DIFFERENT DEPENDING ON WHO YOU GET.

OUR, OUR OBJECTIVE HERE IS TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY'S GETTING THE EXACT SAME, UH, RESOURCE INFORMATION.

AND THAT'S ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WE DO IT.

I'D LIKE TO GET A COUPLE OF THOSE KEEP IN MIND.

SO, SAY AGAIN, BILINGUAL? YEAH.

AND THEY ARE, THEY'RE ON THE FRONT OF THAT IS, IT'S IN ENGLISH AND ON THE BACK.

IT'S IN SPANISH.

SO, UM, AGAIN, WHAT WE DID WAS WE GOT ENOUGH TO EQUIP OUR MENTAL HEALTH OFFICERS AND ALL OF OUR CIT OFFICERS.

UM, THAT'S OUR FIRST BATCH OF THOSE CARDS.

HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I'LL GET MY SECOND BATCH, WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT 500 MORE, WITH THE IDEA OF BEING EVERY SINGLE OFFICER IN OUR DEPARTMENT CARRIES THOSE WITH 'EM, UH, TO, TO ACTUALLY HAND OUT.

I WOULD JUST SAY HE BROUGHT UP KOTA AND I THINK THAT IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT WE'VE DONE TO, TO WORK WITH BAYTOWN POLICE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE, UH, WORKING WITH, WITH LIEUTENANT DORIS ON THE, IT'S NOT A, UH, IT CAN'T BE A, A, UH, WHAT'S THE, THE NO NO WORD, UH, THAT WE CAN'T, WE CAN'T CALL IT A, UH, TASK FORCE, BUT THE, UH, THE MENTAL HEALTH INITIATIVE AND, UM, WORKING WITH THEM.

AND IT JUST SO HAPPENED I REACHED OUT TO, UH, TO KAREN, UH, DEALING WITH THE SITUATION AND IMMEDIATE RESPONSE.

SO THAT, THAT, THAT'S ONE OF THE BEST THINGS WE'VE GOT GOING RIGHT NOW IN THIS REGARD.

SO, YEAH, WE APPLAUD YOU.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR LIEUTENANT DORIS ON THIS, ON THIS ASPECT? ALRIGHT, YOU, ME, YOU MENTIONED RECIDIVISM ON THE CIT.

DO YOU SEE THAT WITH THE CORE OR IS IT JUST TO YOU EARLY IN TO REALLY TELL? I'M NOT SURE I UNDERSTAND YOUR QUESTION.

THE REC THE REC, OH, THE RECIDIVISM.

MOVING ON TO ITEM FOUR C.

SO YOU MENTIONED ON C ON CIT THAT THE NUMBER ACTUALLY WAS GOOD.

IT STILL SEEMS HIGH TO ME AS A CIVILIAN, BUT, UM, ON THE, IS THAT INCLUDING CORE, OR IS CORE COUNTED SEPARATELY IN THAT NO, THAT'S, THAT'S ALL TOGETHER.

THAT'S ALL OF OUR MENTAL HEALTH, UH, RELATED CALLS, UH, TOGETHER 113 OF THOSE, I BELIEVE IS THE NUMBER WERE REPEAT.

UM, SO ONCE WE GET A FULL YEAR UNDER OUR BELT WITH CORE, WILL YOU BE ABLE TO BREAK OUT THAT INFORMATION UNDER THE CORE CALL SPECIFIC TO SEE IF WE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE THERE, OR IF IT'S CORRELATING WITH ALL UP CIT? YEAH, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO, SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF WORK, BUT CERTAINLY SHOULD BE ABLE TO.

AND, AND I'M, WHAT I'M ACTUALLY HOPING IS THAT AS WE GET, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, THE FURTHER ALONG WE GET IN THIS PIPE, THE MORE, UH, THE MORE THIS IS BEING MADE AVAILABLE TO OUR STUDENTS.

I'M HOPING THAT NUMBER GOES DOWN EVEN FURTHER.

THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT MY HOPE IS.

WE APPRECIATE IT SO VERY MUCH.

ALRIGHT, SO

[c. Discuss and consider setting up a booth for the Baytown Police Advisory Committee at the upcoming National Night Out Event scheduled for Tuesday, October 4, 2022.]

AND THAT IS TO DISCUSS AND CONSIDER SETTING UP A BOOTH FOR THE BAYTOWN POLICE ADVISORY COMMITTEE AT THE UPCOMING NATIONAL NIGHT OUT EVENT SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY, OCTOBER THE FOURTH TO 2022 SO'S KIND OF CHANGED RIGHT THERE, , IT'S KIND OF CHANGED.

UH, WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING BACK INTO THE NEIGHBORHOODS THIS YEAR.

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT.

SO WE'RE NOT GONNA HAVE THE, THE

[00:35:01]

EVENT AT TOWN SQUARE.

UH, WE'RE LETTING, UM, NEIGHBORHOODS REGISTER THROUGH OUR, UH, THROUGH THE WEBSITE.

THEY WANNA THROW THEIR OWN PERSONAL BLOCK PARTY AND WE'LL STILL PROVIDE, YOU KNOW, UM, IF THEY WANT TO SEE SQUAD CANINE, UH, CITY OFFICIALS, THE CHIEF, UH, THEY'LL HAVE A DROPDOWN WHERE THEY CAN CHOOSE WHO THEY WANT TO SEE.

UH, BUT, UH, WE ARE GONNA HOST AN EVENT ON, UM, NOVEMBER 5TH.

IT'S ON A SATURDAY FROM 11 TO THREE, UH, PM WHERE YOU GUYS CAN SET UP A BOOTH IF YOU WANT TO.

UM, AND IT WILL BE HELD AT TOWN SQUARE, I BELIEVE RIGHT NOW WE'RE CALLING IT CITIZENS APPRECIATION DATE.

I BELIEVE THAT'S WHAT THE NAME IS RIGHT NOW.

UM, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO, UH, DO IT THE SAME WAY WE DID NATIONAL NIGHT OUT.

UH, WE HAVE HOT DOGS, UM, ENTERTAINMENT, MUSIC, DJ, UM, I WANNA GET SOME VENDORS OUT THERE AS WELL.

SO WE'RE GONNA TRY TO DO IT LIKE WE DID, UM, THE TOWN SQUARE LAST YEAR.

WELL, THAT'S GOOD.

AT LEAST WE GOT MORE TIME TO, TO PLAN FOR IT, .

THAT'S RIGHT.

THAT HELPS.

MS. UM, I WAS JUST GONNA POINT OUT THAT LAST TIME WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT NATIONAL NOT OUT, WE DISCUSSED THE IDEA OF A BANNER.

UH, AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE STILL, UH, COULD USE THAT BANNER ON NOVEMBER 5TH IF, IF YOU GUYS DECIDE YOU WANT TO ATTEND THAT.

UM, BUT JUST SOME DECISIONS WILL AT SOME POINT NEED TO BE MADE, UH, WITH REGARDS TO HOW YOU WANT THAT TO LOOK.

YOU KNOW, UH, THERE WAS SOME TALK MENTIONED A FEW MINUTES AGO ABOUT MAYBE HAVING YOUR OWN, UM, I DON'T KNOW, IMAGE, LOGO.

LOGO.

UM, SO I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S WHAT YOU GUYS ARE THINKING OR IF YOU'RE JUST WANTING TO HAVE LIKE THE CITY'S LOGO AND JUST, YOU KNOW, THE, THE WORDS SPELLED OUT FOR BPAC.

UM, OBVIOUSLY THAT'S UP TO YOU GUYS AND HOW YOU WANNA GO FORWARD.

THE DISCUSSION AROUND THE LOGO PIECE WAS, UM, ALSO, WE DON'T WANT TO APPEAR TO BE A, AN ARM OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, SO WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE, THAT IF WE DO A LOGO OR SOME, SOME MANNER OF, OF WHATEVER THAT IT NEEDS TO BE DEMONSTRATED THAT IT WERE NOT ACTUALLY A, A SUBSIDIARY OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND RATHER WORKING WITH THE CITY ITSELF.

SO WE CAN DISCUSS MORE ABOUT THAT.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS, QUESTIONS ON THIS? YEAH, THE ONLY CONCERN THAT I HAD THAT IS THAT SOME OF US WILL NOT BE ON THIS COMMITTEE AFTER SEPTEMBER.

AND SO I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT THOSE THAT ARE GONNA STILL BE ON THE COMMITTEE HAVE THAT VOTE BECAUSE IT'S GONNA FALL BACK ON THOSE PEOPLE ON THE COMMITTEE.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? MM-HMM .

AND SO I'M NOT SURE WHO THAT IS OR WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE, BUT I MEAN, IF WE'RE GONNA MAKE A VOTE, I DON'T WANNA VOTE AND THEN I'M NOT ON IT AGAIN, I DON'T GET, I DON'T GET REELECTED OR PUT BACK ON IT APPOINTED.

AND THEN I VOTED FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO HANDLE THIS.

UM, AT THIS POINT WE ARE NOT PREPARED TO HAVE A VOTE 'CAUSE THAT'S NOT ON THE AGENDA.

UH, IT'S MORE OF IF YOU GUYS WANNA PUT IT ON THE NEXT AGENDA OR IF YOU GUYS WANT TO, OKAY.

YOU KNOW, CONVENE AMONGST PERFECT.

YOU KNOW, NOT ALL OF YOU, NOT A QUORUM, BUT, YOU KNOW, IF THE CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR WANTED TO MEET, FOR INSTANCE, YOU COULD DO THAT.

MAY I MAKE A SUGGESTION THAT THAT BE PUT ON THE FIRST AGENDA ITEM FOR THE NEW NEW COMMITTEE AT THE, WHATEVER THE, SO I GUESS IT'D BE THE OCTOBER, UM, THE OCTOBER, UH, AGENDA.

BUT THAT'S GONNA BE, THAT MIGHT BE TOO LATE.

THAT'S GONNA BE LATE.

BE SOME FAST A TURNAROUND.

SO WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE THAT ARE, THAT WILL BE ON THE COMMITTEE TO HAVE A SIDEBAR THAT, UM, THAT CAN BE, BE ABLE TO, I GUESS AS LONG AS IT'S MORE NO MORE THAN THREE.

IF, IF YOU GUYS WANNA TALK AMONGST A COUPLE OF YOU, AS LONG AS YOU DON'T HAVE A QUORUM, YOU GUYS CAN TALK.

UM, JUST HAVE TO REMEMBER TO, TO NOT HAVE THAT QUORUM, NOT TO SEND OUT GROUP EMAILS, THAT SORT OF THING.

THAT CAN CAUSE IT TO TURN INTO A QUORUM.

FOUR PEOPLE.

AND TACITO LIKE A COMMUNITY.

SO WHAT IS JUST, YOU SAID I MISTAKE, I KNOW, BUT YOU, I SAID FOUR PEOPLE WOULDN'T BE A QUORUM.

FOUR PEOPLE WOULD NOT BE A QUORUM.

BUT WHAT IS THE STATE? IT'S THE THREE OR MORE? NO, IT IS A MAJORITY.

FOUR WOULD WORK, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW THAT WE GO IF YOU WANTED TO FOR THIS, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM THAT WE DO HAVE ON THE AGENDA HAS TO DO WITH THE, AN EVENT.

UM, I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU WANTED TO TAKE VOLUNTEERS FOR A COMMITTEE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT TO START THAT PROCESS.

UM, AND YOU KNOW, AND IT'S JUST A THOUGHT.

THERE'S A THOUGHT.

SO WHO, WHO WOULD LIKE TO HEAD UP A COMMITTEE TO, TO HELP DESIGN THE LOGO AND ANYTHING THAT GOES ALONG WITH THAT? SO PASTOR ROBIN BAARD, I DID WANNA POINT OUT THAT THE THREE MEMBERS THAT ARE NOT OF FOR REAPPOINTMENT IS, UH, SPRINGER AND STANKY AND EVANS

[00:40:01]

I MEAN, NOT TACITO THAT ARE NOT, SORRY, I DON'T KNOW WHY THAT CAME OUTTA MY MOUTH THAT ARE NOT UP FOR REAPPOINTMENT.

SO WE HAVE FIVE OUT OF THE NINE MEMBERS THAT ARE UP FOR REAPPOINTMENT AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER.

AND THAT IS FOR DISTRICT FIVE, MYSELF, UM, DISTRICT TWO, DR. MORENO, DISTRICT FOUR, MR. ER, UH, THE CITY MANAGER APPOINTMENT, AND MS. ATHENA GREEN, WHICH THEY, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER LESTER HAS EXPRESSED HE'S GONNA RE KEEP HER ON THE COMMITTEE.

SO I WILL, I I'M JUST, JUST SO Y'ALL KNOW, I WILL NOT BE CONTINUING TO SERVE.

IT'S BEEN AN HONOR, BUT I'M MY TIME AND IT'S VALUABLE.

BUT, UH, AS A PASTOR, SO, UH, I WILL NOT BE, BE REAPPOINTED.

UM, SO HOW DO WE WANNA DO THIS? I'M OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS.

I'D BE GLAD TO BE ON THE COMMITTEE.

YEAH, WE, IF YOU WANT TO DO THAT AT THE OKAY.

IF YOU, IF, IF, IF Y'ALL CAN START THE PROCESS AND ONE WE SHOULD KNOW, IS IT THE END OF SEPTEMBER, IF, IF THE THOSE THAT WOULD BE REAPPOINTED WILL BE REAPPOINTED AND ALL? UM, I ASSUME SO DO YOU KNOW WHAT COUNCIL DATE? WE WOULD DO OUR APPOINTMENTS? SO IT WOULD BE AT THE SECOND MEETING IN SEPTEMBER AND THAT WOULD BE SEPTEMBER 22ND.

SEPTEMBER 22ND.

AND WHEN WE HAVE OUR SEPTEMBER MEETING, IF YOU GUYS WANTED TO, UM, YOU KNOW, HAVE A, A SPECIAL MEETING EARLIER IN OCTOBER, RATHER THAN WAITING TO THE END OF THE MONTH TO, UM, TO DISCUSS SOME OF THE DETAILS, THAT'S AN OPTION FOR YOU TOO IN THE FUTURE.

IF YOU WANNA DO THAT.

UM, I HAVE A QUESTION.

YES, MA'AM.

UM, ARE WE ON, WE'RE ON TWO YEAR TERMS, CORRECT? MM-HMM .

SO WHY ISN'T HALF THERE IS A VACANCY FOR DISTRICT ONE AT THIS TIME.

SO AGAIN, SO IF IT'S NINE MEMBERS, SO FIVE OUT OF THE NINE ARE UP THIS YEAR AND THEN THE OTHER FOUR WILL BE UP NEXT YEAR.

SO JUST ONE.

SO ONE OF THE FOUR ISN'T APPOINTED, RIGHT.

BECAUSE I THOUGHT WE STARTED WITH ONE, SOME HAD ONE YEAR CON UH, ONE YEAR TERMS AND THEN SOME HAD TWO YEAR TERMS. RIGHT.

THAT VERY FIRST ONE.

'CAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN MAKE 'EM STAGGER.

YEAH, BECAUSE MS. LEDDY, SHE DREW I THINK FOUR, FOUR NAMES OUT OF THE HAT FOR THE FIRST YEAR.

AND THEN THE REST WERE TWO YEARS, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SO ANYWAY.

UM, SO ON THIS, THE NATIONAL LINE OUT, OBVIOUSLY WE KNOW IT'S MOVED, UH, TO BE GOING INTO THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND THEN WHEN NOVEMBER THE FIFTH, WE WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A BOOTH AT TOWN SQUARE.

UM, SO LIEUTENANT EVANS AND MR. SPRINGER WILL START THE, AND DR.

STANSKI AND DR.

STANSKI WILL START THE, THE BALLS ROLLING ON GETTING THAT ORGANIZED AND BE ABLE TO REPORT BACK TO US AT THE NEXT MEETINGS.

ANY OTHER ITEMS RIGHT THERE? WHAT, WHAT ARE THEY GONNA REPORT BACK TO US? ARE THEY GONNA REPORT BACK TO US? NEEDS? ARE THEY GONNA REPORT BACK TO? GOOD QUESTION.

I MEAN, I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT'S CLARIFYING BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE THAT'S A, YEAH, I , WE WERE TALKING ABOUT MAKING A BANNER, RIGHT? AND THEN WHO'S GONNA FUND THE TABLE? LIKE, ARE YOU GONNA HAVE CANDY ON THE TABLE OR LIKE WHAT ARE THOSE TYPES OF THINGS THAT, SO THAT'S WHY I SAID NEEDS.

AND WHO'S GONNA FUND THE NEEDS IS WHAT I WOULD SAY.

THAT'S ALWAYS A BIG QUESTION.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE JERRY .

NO, NO.

UH, NO.

WE, WE ARE TRYING REALLY HARD TO FIND SOME FUNDS TO GET THAT BANNER FOR SURE.

UM, WE KNOW THAT'S GONNA BE REALLY IMPORTANT TO EVEN TO BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY YOU GUYS IF YOU'RE SETTING UP AT A BOOTH.

UM, SO WE'RE GONNA, WE'RE GONNA KEEP WORKING ON THAT.

UM, THE OTHER STUFF, WE HAVEN'T REALLY TALKED ABOUT ANY OF THOSE THINGS, SO AGAIN, WE'LL MAYBE THAT'S WHAT THE COMMITTEE CAN GO FORWARD ON AND FIGURE OUT.

UM, YOU KNOW, MAKING ARRANGEMENTS.

'CAUSE IT'S VERY POSSIBLE THAT THE CITY WILL BE ABLE TO LOAN US TABLES AND CHAIRS, BUT WE NEED TO MAKE THAT ARRANGEMENT SORT OF PUT THAT ON A RESERVATION SOMEHOW.

I'LL, I'LL GET THE TABLE AND CHAIRS FOR YOU.

JUST, THERE'S ONE TEAM TAKEN OFF.

JUST GOTTA LET ME KNOW.

AND A TENT, LIKE A COVER.

DO WE HAVE THOSE THAT OKAY.

THAT WE COULD TALK TO PARKS AND REC THOUGH? IT WOULD JUST BE NO, THEY WON'T SET THAT UP EITHER.

OH, THEY WON'T.

THEY'RE GONNA GIVE US A, UM, A TABLE AND A COUPLE CHAIRS.

SO WE HAVE TO BORROW ONE.

YOUR TENTS NOT UNLESS YOU HAVE YOUR OWN, BRING YOUR OWN TENT.

NOT UNLESS YOU HAVE YOUR OWN TENT.

ANYBODY GO TAILGATE TIME.

TAILGATE.

IT WON'T BE AS HOT IN NOVEMBER, BUT IT'S STILL PRETTY SUNNY.

PRETTY CLOSE.

MOSQUITOES.

STEVE, WILL, PARKS PROVIDE A TENT IF WE ASK? UH, NOT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL TENTS.

'CAUSE I TRIED DOING IT LAST YEAR, BUT

[00:45:01]

LEMME SEE WHAT I MEAN.

I DO, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CITY COUNCIL.

THEY'RE ON BOOTH.

I MEAN THEY'RE ON TENT.

I MADE A BIG, WE DO HAVE A NEW DIRECTOR OVER PARKS AND RECS, SO , THAT'S ONE I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW, .

OH, OKAY.

NEVERMIND.

SO, BUT LEMME SEE.

I CAN DO, UH, AND SEE IF I GET A 10 AREA OKAY.

FOR YOU GUYS.

ALRIGHT.

YOU MIGHT BE COMBINED WITH SOMEONE ELSE, BUT WE'LL PUT YOU IN THAT GENERAL AREA.

TAKE TURNS IN THE SHAPE.

SOUNDS GOOD.

ALRIGHT, MOVING

[d. Review the Baytown Police Advisory Committee's buckets of concern and discuss the presentation of the committee's quarterly report to the City Council on September 22, 2022. ]

ON TO FOUR D.

AND THAT IS TO REVIEW THE BAYTOWN POLICE ADVISORY COMMITTEE BUCKETS OF CONCERN AND DISCUSS THE PRESENTATION OF THE COMMITTEE'S QUARTERLY REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL ON SEPTEMBER THE 22ND.

UM, BUCKETS OF CONCERN.

WE, UM, I THINK WE HAVE DONE A VERY GOOD JOB OF LOOKING AT THE BUCKETS OF CONCERN.

PULL UP MY LIST HERE.

UH, THE MENTAL HEALTH BEING ONE OF THE PRIMARY, UH, ASPECTS OF THIS.

AND THEN THE TRANSPARENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY WAS THE SECOND OF THE FOUR, FOLLOWED BY TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT, WHICH THAT IS ONGOING.

AND THEN ALSO POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT.

AND WE'RE GONNA HEAR, UH, A GOOD REPORT IN JUST A MOMENT FROM LIEUTENANT OSA, UH, ON, ON THAT ASPECT.

BUT ARE THERE ANY, ANYTHING, ANY ITEMS THAT WE NEED TO CONSIDER GOING FORWARD AS A COMMITTEE? THIS COMMITTEE IS HELPING TO, UH, TO MAKE SURE THAT THE, THE FUTURE FORMATION OF THIS COMMITTEE IS FOCUSING ON ACCURATE DEPICTION OF WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE CITY OF BAYTOWN.

I MEAN, I THINK, I THINK GOING BACK TO THE LIBRARY AND HAVING ANOTHER JAM SESSION, SO TO SPEAK, TO TALK ABOUT THE BUCKETS THAT WE HAD ALREADY HAD.

REMEMBER WE HAD THE STICKIES EVERYWHERE.

Y'ALL WEREN'T THERE, BUT THE STICKIES EVERYWHERE MM-HMM .

UM, THAT WAS HELPFUL AND BENEFICIAL TO BE, TO HELP US FIGURE OUT WHAT BUCKETS THE BRAINSTORMING.

CORRECT.

BUT I ALSO THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD TO GO BACK TO THE BUCKETS THAT WE HAVE TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE DONE EXACTLY WHAT WE HAD INTENDED THAT FIRST MEETING.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? MM-HMM .

AND THEN FROM THERE LOOK AT ADDITIONAL CONCERNS.

I MEAN, OTHERWISE, IF WE'VE DONE ALL THE BUCKETS, THEN WHAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THE COMMITTEE? RIGHT? I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO BE ABLE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THAT AND REVIEW IT.

SO WE SHOULD DO THAT WITH THE, WITH THE NEW MEMBERS FORMATION OF THE COUNCIL, OF THE COMMITTEE.

THAT, THAT I THINK THAT WOULD BE PROBABLY THE, THE MOST PRODUCTIVE IS THAT, THAT THE, THE REVISED VERSION OF THE BAYTOWN POLICE ADVISORY COMMITTEE STARTING IN OCTOBER, SHOULD, NUMBER ONE, BE EDUCATED ON THE PREVIOUS TWO YEARS OF THE BUCKETS OF CONCERN, BUT THEN ALSO GIVE THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS AND, YOU KNOW, VERBALIZE THEIR CONCERNS, WHAT THEY'RE HEARING.

SO THAT MAY NOT BE A BAD IDEA.

IS THAT, THAT FIRST, I MEAN, I'M SPEAKING OUTTA TURN, I'M LOOKING AT, AT DR.

SANKY ABOUT THE, I MEAN, I, I FEEL LIKE YOU AND I ARE ON THE SAME PAGE WHEN IT COMES TO CONSIDERATION.

AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE FIVE PEOPLE THAT POSSIBLY AREN'T SITTING HERE RIGHT NOW.

SO WE MIGHT HAVE SOME COMING BACK, YOU KNOW, BUT, BUT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE MAYBE INSTEAD OF IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS HERE, MAYBE IN A WORKROOM WHERE WE WANTED TO, YOU KNOW, MAKE STICKY NOTES AND PUT IT ON WALLS AND ALL THAT.

BUT IT WAS HELPFUL TO HAVE THE FACILITATOR THOUGH THAT THAT WAS WHAT I WAS GONNA ASK TO HAVE.

DID YOU HAVE RACHEL OR JAMIE DOING THAT? DO YOU REMEMBER? YES.

OR THERE WERE SEVERAL.

THERE WERE, YEAH.

THEY WERE BOTH THERE.

BECAUSE WE KIND OF BROKE UP INTO GROUPS AND, AND IT WAS KIND, IT WAS KIND OF A WORK SESSION.

OH YEAH.

THEY DO SOME GREAT WORK.

UM, THEY DO AMAZING THINGS.

SO WE CAN TALK TO THEM AGAIN TO SEE IF THEY'RE OPEN TO DOING THAT AT THE OCTOBER MEETING.

OCTOBER 18TH.

UM, WHAT, WHAT DID YOU SAY? OCTOBER 18TH.

18TH.

IS THAT THE NORMAL MEETING OR ARE YOU GUYS THINKING YOU MAY END UP, THAT'S THE NORMAL MEETING.

DO YOU WANNA DO IT EARLIER BECAUSE OF THE OTHER ISSUES THAT YOU GOTTA MAKE PLANS ON WITH REGARDS TO THE NOVEMBER EVENT THAT COULD BE PART OF THE WORK SESSION, YOU KNOW? RIGHT.

UM, BUT I MEAN, IT'S OCTOBER 18TH EARLY ENOUGH TO HAVE MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN BY NOVEMBER 5TH.

I DON'T KNOW.

I MEAN, IT'S Y'ALL'S CALL, WE JUST NEED TO GET WITH THE SIGNED.

NO, I THOUGHT THEY WERE GONNA TALK ABOUT THAT THE NEXT MEETING.

THE SEPTEMBER, YEAH, THE SEPTEMBER MEETING'S GONNA DETERMINE THE NEEDS FOR THE NOVEMBER 5TH ONE.

YEAH, IT WAS JUST, I KNOW YOU MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT WANTING TO WAIT UNTIL THE NEW PEOPLE STARTED, AND THAT WON'T BE UNTIL OCTOBER.

NO, I, I JUST DIDN'T WANNA MAKE A DECISION FOR SOMEONE IF I'M NOT GONNA BE REELECTED AND SIT HERE AND SAY, HEY, HEY GUYS, GO DO THIS.

AND THEN I'M NOT THERE TO, YOU KNOW.

VERY GOOD.

THEN WE'LL BE GOOD THEN WITH MOVING FORWARD.

I'LL GIVE THEM THAT DATE AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE AVAILABLE.

AND ALSO TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE AVAILABLE TO USE THAT INNOVATION ROOM AT THE LIBRARY,

[00:50:01]

THAT WILL WORK.

AND THEN I WILL, I WILL DO A RECAP, DR. MORENO AND I CAN DO A RECAP OF THE LAST QUARTER IN PREPARATION FOR THE, UM, FOR THE QUARTERLY MEETING AND ALL THAT.

AND IF YOU DO HAVE CONCERNS, JOT 'EM DOWN.

BE READY TO, UM, TO MAKE SURE THAT AT THOSE THAT ARE GOING TO CONTINUE ON WITH THE COMMITTEE, UH, AT THE OCTOBER MEETING, HOPEFULLY THAT, THAT WILL BRING THOSE UP AND EXPRESS THOSE, THOSE CONCERNS.

ANYTHING ELSE ON THIS ITEM HERE? ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO SPECIFICALLY BE, BE ADDRESSED FOR THE PRESENTATION FOR THE COUNCIL? SILENCE IS GOLDEN.

DUCT TAPE IS SILVER .

IT'S, EVERYTHING'S COMING TOGETHER.

WE'RE MOVING

[e. Receive a report and discuss the status of police outreach, community policing, officer training and policies and procedures.]

ON.

GO TO ITEM E AND THAT IS RECEIVE A REPORT AND DISCUSS THE STATUS OF POLICE OUTREACH, COMMUNITY POLICING OFFICER TRAINING AND POLICIES AND PROCEDURES.

CHIEF LIEUTENANT HAS PUT TOGETHER A PRESENTATION ON THE UNIDOS PROGRAM FOR THE HIS HISPANIC OUTREACH TEAM.

UH, I'LL JUST ADD THAT, UH, AS YOU MENTIONED, TRAINING AND POLICY AND PROCEDURE REVIEW IS ONGOING.

WE'RE COMING UP ON OUR ONSITE INSPECTION WITH THE ACCREDITATION, UH, UH, GROUP FOR THE TEXAS POLICE CHIEFS ASSOCIATION.

AND WE ARE ON TRACK TO, UH, TO RECEIVE OUR RE-ACCREDITATION.

UH, THERE'S OVER 180 STANDARDS THAT WE HAVE TO SHOW PROOF OF COMPLIANCE WITH.

SO, UH, IT, UH, IT'S ANOTHER METHOD OF ENSURING PROFESSIONALISM, UH, STANDARDS AND POLICIES ARE FOLLOWED, AUDITED BY AN OUTSIDE AGENCY, AND, UM, IT, UH, IT ALSO LENDS ITSELF TO TRANSPARENCY.

UM, UH, IN ADDITION TO THAT, I'D JUST LIKE TO SAY THAT THE TRAINING THAT I'M ACTUALLY GOING THROUGH THIS WEEK IS OUR REGULAR BLOCK TRAINING THAT ALL OF OUR OFFICERS ARE REQUIRED TO GO THROUGH.

AND, UH, WE'RE GETTING 40 HOURS ON DEESCALATION ETHICS AND CRITICAL THINKING DURING PRACTICAL APPLICATION SCENARIOS.

UH, I'VE BEEN VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE LEVEL OF INSTRUCTION SO FAR.

AND WITH THAT SAID, I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO LIEUTENANT HOSA.

HI, HOLA.

GOOD EVENING.

HI EVERYBODY.

GOOD TO SEE EVERYBODY AGAIN.

I'M HERE TO GIVE Y'ALL A UPDATE ON UNIDOS.

KIND OF WORKED ON A POWERPOINT.

I'LL GO THROUGH IT REAL QUICK.

UM, JUST TO GO OVER SOME THINGS.

THE MISSION STATEMENT FOR A NEEDLES IS, UM, PROVIDING AN OPPORTUNITY FOR POLICE AGENCIES TO PARTNER WITH OUR SPANISH SPEAKING RESIDENTS AND SERVE AS A RESOURCE FOR CREATING AN IMPROVED QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.

THE PURPOSE OF UNIDOS IS, UH, IS A COMMUNITY PROGRAM GEARED TOWARD IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR SPANISH SPEAKING RESIDENTS.

THIS IS ACCOMPLISHED BY PROVIDING ASSISTANCE IN AREAS OF EVIDENCE TO THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY AND FOCUSING ON BEING A RESOURCE CENTER TO MEET THE NEEDS OF OUR RESIDENTS.

WHOSE FIRST LANGUAGE IS SPANISH? NICE PICTURE.

WE TOOK THAT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO.

THAT GOOD LOOKING GUY RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE.

I'M JUST WHAT THEY, UH, MANY RESIDENTS WHO ARE HISPANIC LATINO DESCENT SPEAK VERY LITTLE OR NO ENGLISH, AND HAVE ONLY BEEN IN THE US FOR A SHORT TIME.

MOST ARE FROM LATIN COUNTRIES WHERE THE POLICE ARE CORRUPT AND CANNOT BE TRUSTED.

IN ADDITION, POST NINE 11 EMPHASIS ON TERRORISM AND THE ONGOING NATIONAL IMMIGRATION DEBATE HAS INCREASED.

ITS THIS LEVEL OF DISTRUST FOR MANY HISPANIC IMMIGRANTS.

DUE TO THIS SUSPICION, THE LACK OF TRUST, POLICE DEPARTMENTS ARE OFTEN FACED WITH MANY CRIMES THAT ARE NOT BEING REPORTED.

WHILE MANY SPANISH SPEAKING RESIDENTS ALWAYS ALSO REFUSED TO COME FORWARD IN CRIMES THAT ARE BEING INVESTIGATED.

I WAS IN INVESTIGATIONS AS A SERGEANT FOR 10 YEARS, UM, IN THE HOMICIDE DIVISION, PERSON CRIMES.

AND I DID SEE THIS FIRSTHAND ON MANY OCCASIONS.

UM, I THINK THIS IS OUR BIGGEST KEY RIGHT HERE, IS LOWERING THE, UH, VICTIM RATE OF OUR HISPANIC COMMUNITY BECAUSE, UH, THEY DON'T TRUST THE POLICE ENOUGH TO, UH, CALL THE POLICE.

SO THERE, THERE'S A LOT OF CRIME THAT GOES UNREPORTED.

UM, THE LANGUAGE BARRIER AND LACK OF INVOLVEMENT WITH THE POLICE HAS CREATED MANY INSTANCES WHERE HISPANICS ARE UNNECESSARILY VICTIMS OF CRIME BECAUSE OF LACK

[00:55:01]

OF FA FAMILIARITY WITH CRIME PREVENTION AND EMPATHY.

POLICE DEPARTMENTS ALSO FOUND MANY SITUATIONS MAY BE DISHA MISHANDLED BY POLI BY OFFICERS DUE TO THEIR LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF THE HISPANIC CULTURE AND THE HISPANIC LATINO POLICING SYSTEMS. SO WHEN WE HAVE OUR PRESENTATIONS, OUR TOWN HALL MEETINGS, THERE'S GONNA BE, UH, SEVERAL POLICE OFFICERS THERE WHERE IT'S GONNA BE KIND OF LIKE A, A, A GROUP EFFORT, BOTH WITH THE CITIZENS AND WITH OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT SO THEY CAN, UH, BUILD RELATIONSHIPS.

UNIDOS WAS FOUNDED ON SEVERAL UNIQUE PRINCIPLES.

UNIDOS TRULY BELIEVES IN TWO, A COMMUNICATION AND THE PROMOTION OF TRUST BETWEEN THE POLICE AND THE COMMUNITY.

TO THAT END, UNIDOS MEETINGS FEATURE SPEAKERS AND TOPICS THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY POLICE RELATED, BUT RATHER SUBJECTS OF INTEREST, RELEVANCE TO THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY.

THESE MEETINGS FOCUS ON IMPROVING BASIC QUALITY OF LIFE FOR SPANISH SPEAKING RESIDENTS.

UM, UNI, THOSE ACTS AS A RESOURCE CENTER WHERE HISPANICS RESIDENTS CAN OBTAIN INFORMATION OR ASSISTANCE ON ANY TOPIC.

REGARDLESS WHETHER OR NOT IT IS POLICE RELATED.

SPANISH SPEAKING OFFICERS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE END OF EACH MEETING TO SPEND ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH RESIDENTS IN ANSWERING SPECIFIC QUESTIONS OR HELPING TO FIND SOLUTIONS TO INDIVIDUAL NEEDS.

SO OUR FIRST MEETING, UM, WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO HAVE A PRESENTATION, AND AFTERWARDS WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO EAT, HAVE DINNER, AND WE WILL HAVE OFFICERS EATING WITH FAMILIES.

AND, AND THAT WAY, THAT COMMUNICATION CAN, UH, CAN BE STRENGTHENED IF NOT CREATED ALTOGETHER RIGHT IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THIS OBJECTIVE.

UNIDOS INVOLVES THE PARTICIPATION OF HISPANIC COMMUNITY LEADERS, BILINGUAL CITY EMPLOYEES FROM OTHER DEPARTMENTS AND SPANISH SPEAKING PROFESSIONALS FROM THE COMMUNITY.

UM, BY TAKING AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR MANY HISPANIC RESIDENT RESIDENTS AS OPPOSED TO ONLY A POLICE EDUCATIONAL COMPONENT, UNIDOS IS ABLE TO GAIN GENUINE TRUST FROM MANY HISPANIC RESIDENTS.

UNIDOS HELPS CREATE A BOND WITH THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY AND HELPS OFFICERS BETTER UNDERSTAND THE SIZABLE SEGMENT OF THE POPULATION.

I DON'T WANT TO DEATH BY POWERPOINT, BUT I'M ALMOST DONE.

A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE CRIMINAL LAWS AND MUNICIPAL ORDINANCES THROUGH UNIDOS PROGRAMS CAN LEAD TO FEWER CODE AND SAFETY VIOLATIONS COMMITTED BY HISPANICS IN THE CITY.

HISPANIC INVOLVEMENT IN NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH PROGRAMS CAN GROW THROUGH THE PROMOTION OF THESE PROGRAMS. AT UNIDOS.

MEETINGS INCREASE, INCREASE CULTURAL AWARENESS ON BEHALF OF OFFICERS CAN LEAD TO MORE INSTANCES OF ENFORCEMENT AS A LAST RESORT.

TOPICS COVERED.

UM, TALK ABOUT, UM, BANKING.

UM, A LOT OF TIMES, UM, HISPANIC VICTIMS, THEY CARRY ALL THEIR MONEY ON 'EM BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE CHECKING ACCOUNTS.

SO WE, WE WILL TALK ABOUT BANKING.

WE HAVE SOME PEOPLE FROM BANKING INSTITUTIONS TO COME AND, AND DO A PRESENTATION.

WE'RE NOT NECESSARILY GONNA DO TALKS ON EVERY SUBJECT.

WE'LL HAVE SUBJECT EXPERTS AND, UM, COME AND, AND AND, AND HAVE A PRESENTATION AND EXPLAIN EVERYTHING.

UM, CAR SEATS IS A, IS A BIG ONE, RIGHT? UH, ESPECIALLY IN THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY, RIGHT? WE JUST LIKE, I'VE SEEN IT.

THAT'S WHY I'M TALK FROM EXPERIENCE AND KID UP FRONT AND SEAT, UH, AND WITH MOM OR, OR SOME CAR SEATS IS A BIG ONE.

CELL PHONE.

UM, CITY OF BAYTOWN BENEFITS AS BEING A BAYTOWN RESIDENT.

UH, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TALKING ABOUT SAFETY, FIRE ALARMS, UM, CITY OF BAY BAYTOWN HOUSING AUTHORITY.

WE'LL TALK ABOUT MUNICIPAL COURT.

AND THESE ARE SOME EXAMPLES.

CRIME PREVENTION, YOU KNOW, HOW TO, UH, TARGET HARD, HARDEN OUR, OUR HOUSES LIGHTING, YOU KNOW, CUT BACK THE BRUSH THE BRUSH, AND, UM, STUFF LIKE THAT.

UM, YOU KNOW, DPS, UH, WE'LL TALK ABOUT DRIVER'S LICENSES, UH, DRINKING AND DRIVING.

WE'LL TALK ABOUT DWI ENFORCEMENT.

UM, WE'LL TALK ABOUT FAMILY VIOLENCE.

UM, WE WILL HAVE OUR, UM, FAMILY VIOLENCE COORDINATOR,

[01:00:01]

CHERYL, COME OUT AND DO A PRESENTATION, TALK ABOUT OUR RESOURCES.

UM, WE'LL TALK ABOUT OUR JAIL, JUST OF A PIECE.

THESE ARE JUST EXAMPLES OF THE VAST TOPICS THAT WE CAN, UH, TALK ABOUT.

UM, VEHICLE REGISTRATIONS, YOU KNOW, SOCIAL SECURITY.

WE CAN TALK ABOUT EDUCATION.

WE CAN TALK, UH, DR.

SAN, WE CAN TALK ABOUT, UH, EYE HEALTH, YOU KNOW, UH, GLAUCOMA AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

IT'S PRETTY, YOU KNOW, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND DIABETES, PROBLEMS WITH AFFECTING EYES.

THERE'S A LOT OF TOPICS THAT WE CAN TALK ABOUT.

SO IT'S, IT'S MOVING FORWARD.

WE'RE GONNA WRITE THIS DATE DOWN.

OF COURSE, YOU'LL, YOU'LL KNOW OUR FIRST, UH, TOWN HALL MEETING WILL BE OCTOBER THE 25TH, UM, AT 7:00 PM IT'S ON A TUESDAY.

UM, IT'S GONNA BE AT EMMANUEL CHURCH, 500 EAST JAMES.

THEY'VE OPENED THEIR SANCTUARY TO US.

UM, THEY'RE PROVIDING, UM, CHILDCARE.

THEY'RE GONNA FEED US, AND WE'RE GONNA THAT'S GREAT.

THAT'S AWESOME.

IT'S, UM, THEY'RE, THEY'RE REALLY, UM, HELPING, UH, THEY'RE GOING TO BE PROMOTING IT ALSO.

UM, SO THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHERE WE'RE AT.

SO FAR.

WE'VE GOTTEN OUR BANNERS AND WE'VE ALREADY ORDERED THEM, AND THEY HAVEN'T CAME IN JUST YET, BUT WE HAVE BANNERS.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE, UH, YOU KNOW, SEVERAL OUTINGS AND STUFF.

WE'LL, WE'LL BE OUT THERE WITH Y'ALL ON WHAT, NOVEMBER? THE FIFTH? YES.

FIFTH .

ANY QUESTIONS? WE ALL TOGETHER? YEAH.

NO, THAT WAS A LOT OF, UH, INFORMATION, BUT THAT'S BASICALLY WHAT IT'S ABOUT.

EDUCATION, EDUCATING THE HISPANIC COMMUNITY, PRIMARILY THE HISPANIC, UH, THE SPANISH SPEAKING COMMUNITY, SO THE LIEUTENANT.

DON'T FORGET THAT.

UH, REALLY, YOU'VE ALREADY STARTED DOING SOME OF THIS INFORMALLY.

YOU HAD, UH, REPRESENTATION AT THE BACKPACK GIVEAWAY ON THE, UH, BACK TO SCHOOL EVENT AT, UH, AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER OVER HERE.

THAT'S TRUE.

WE'VE HAD, UM, THAT, UM, UM, I WENT THAT LOCATION.

WE ALSO WAS AT, UH, OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE CHURCH.

THEY HAD A BAZAAR.

WE PUT OUT A TENT.

WE WERE GIVING FREE GIVEAWAYS TO ALL THE, THE KIDS AND PLAYING BASKETBALL WITH THE KIDS AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

UM, SO IT'S, IT'S COFFEE WITH A COP.

WE'VE ALSO HAD THAT.

AND WHAT WE'RE DOING IS PASSING OUT FLYERS, PROMOTING OUR, UM, OUR TOWN HALL.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE ONE EVERY QUARTER.

UH, SO NEXT YEAR WE'LL HAVE FOUR.

UM, THIS WAS GOING TO, IN OCTOBER WILL BE OUR FIRST ONE.

THEN WE'LL START MEETING AND COMING UP WITH TOPICS FOR NEXT YEAR, YOU KNOW, SO I, I SEE ON HERE AN EMAIL ADDRESS.

I SEE A-A-U-R-L, I SEE THE QR CODE.

ALL THAT ARE ARE, IS THERE ANY PLAN OF TAKING, TAKING THIS ON SOCIAL MEDIA? IF, IF THERE'S, WE, WE DID A PRESS RELEASE TODAY, RIGHT, CHIEF? WE DID.

AND, UM, THAT YOUR CODE ACTUALLY GOES TO THE BAYTOWN POLICE WEBSITE.

TOGETHER AND, UH, YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST.

AND YOU'LL SEE UNIDOS THERE, MY EMAIL ADDRESS, MY PHONE NUMBER.

AND I TOLD MY MEMBERS, I SAID, UH, DON'T WORRY.

I'LL BE FORWARDING YOU PHONE, UH, NUMBERS AND, AND, UH, NAMES AND STUFF.

SO YES, IT'S ALL ACTIVE.

WE'RE GONNA BE, UM, ON FACEBOOK, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GONNA BE, UM, ADVERTISING THROUGH FACEBOOK AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

SO, AND IF I, IF I'M CORRECT, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, UH, OUR PUBLIC INFORMATION COORDINATOR THAT IS A CIVILIAN POSITION SPECIFICALLY TAKES CARE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION FORCE.

WE WILL ACTUALLY BE TAKING CARE OF THAT FOR YOU.

YOU'LL SEND THE INFORMATION TO HER? YES, AND IT WILL ALL GO OUT ON THE BAYTOWN.

UH, I WISH SHE WAS HERE.

FACEBOOK, SHE'S AWESOME.

BUT THE IDEA BEHIND THAT IS WE ALL SAT DOWN AND DISCUSSED, UM, IS FOR CONSISTENCY AND MESSAGING IN A PLACE WHERE EVERYBODY KNOWS TO GO AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW.

UM, ANNA, HER, UH, FERNANDEZ, UH, DOES A VERY GOOD JOB.

SHE HAS A BACKGROUND IN MARKETING, UH, AS WELL AS PUBLIC INFORMATION.

SO SHE'S DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB OF DIRECTING US TO THE RIGHT PLACE AND HOW TO MESSAGE THIS OUT.

THAT'S AWESOME.

I HAVE SOME FLYERS.

I KNOW AT FIRST YOU WERE KIND OF LIKE, WAIT A MINUTE, BUT HE'S COME TOGETHER REALLY, REALLY WELL.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I I, I CANNOT TAKE CREDIT FOR IT ALL MYSELF.

I HAVE A, A GROUP OF, UH, DEDICATED POLICE OFFICERS AND WE'RE, I'M, I WORK GRAVEYARD PATROL.

WE HAVE DETECTIVES ON OUR BOARD.

WE HAVE OTHER PATROL OFFICERS.

WE HAVE A OFFICER THAT WORKS IN CRIME PREVENTION.

IT'S A BUNCH OF US FROM WORK IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT.

BUT WE COME

[01:05:01]

SO, SO AS LATINOS, WE'RE ALWAYS TAUGHT TO BE HUMBLE, BUT YOU ALWAYS GOTTA REMEMBER THEY HAVE TO HAVE ONE FIERCE LEADER, AND THAT'S YOU.

SO THANK YOU.

THANK, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION AND LEADING THE CAUSE.

I, I'D LIKE TO JUMP IN ON THAT.

PLEASE.

UH, THANK YOU FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THE LEADERSHIP IN THAT AND, AND IN BOTH OF THESE ENDEAVORS.

LIEUTENANT NORRIS AS WELL.

'CAUSE HE'S GOT A LOT OF MOVING PARTS WITH, WITH MENTAL HEALTH.

BUT I APPRECIATE THE LEADERSHIP THAT BOTH OF THESE GENTLEMEN SHOW, NOT ONLY DOWN OUR CHAIN OF COMMAND, BUT UP OUR CHAIN OF COMMAND ALL THE WAY TO ME, BECAUSE I'M CONSTANTLY LEARNING FROM BOTH OF THEM.

AND, UM, I THINK THAT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT, IS TO LISTEN TO WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY.

SO YOU BOTH HAVE DONE AN OUTSTANDING JOB WITH YOUR ENDEAVORS.

I'M JUST GLAD TO SEE A FORMER BPAC MEMBER ACTIVELY, YOU KNOW, INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY.

IT'S FUN.

IT'S VERY REWARDING, YOU KNOW.

THE, UH, JUST REAL QUICK, THE, UM, THE EVENT WE HAD OUR AT, UM, WHERE'S ABOUT WATER? THE EVENT WE HAD OUR AT, UH, GUADALUPE CHURCH HERE.

UM, IT WAS GREAT IN THE BEGINNING, YOU KNOW, THEY WERE KIND OF RELUCTANT TO COME UP AND TALK TO US, RIGHT? BUT AFTER A WHILE, YOU KNOW, WE HAD SO MANY KIDS AND SO MANY PARENTS, AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO.

UM, WHEN THEY HAD THEIR BIZARRE MEETING, UH, CHURCH BAZAAR, THEIR ANNUAL BAZAAR, I WENT AND I TALKED TO IN FRONT OF THE, THE PRIEST AND ALL THEIR CONGREGATION AND STUFF, TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO AND EVERYTHING.
