Two members of the Los Angeles City Council called Friday for an overhaul of the Police Department's disciplinary process, one that would enhance the police chief'spower to fire officers and scale back the involvement of civilians in disciplinary hearings.The proposal, authored by Councilmembers Tim McOsker and Hugo Soto-Martinez, would eliminate the department's practice of allowing civilians to fill all three seats on a Board of Rights, a panel that reviews LAPD disciplinary cases and then renders a decision.
