I do not believe DROP can achieve the results our residents demand. Despite millions in raises, retentions bonuses, and department budget increases, there are little to no visible effects in our streets and communities. Response times are slower, despite handling nearly 40% fewer calls.
While there are flaws in this proposal, I will still vote in favor as our leadership must urgently prioritize public safety. However, we need to recruit internally and invest appropriately in public safety.
