"Mayor Lamar Hernandez-Thorpe said he is being cautious about identifying the agencies, but he will do so as soon as possible. I learned my lesson in the past. So let's get it signed, sealed and delivered first because you never know who might come out and attack (the plan)."
"Resident Chantelle Owens said asking overworked officers to pick up extra shifts was not a solution. I ask that there be support until we have time to hire and train our officers. Doing anything less will be putting a band-aid on an infection."
"Another resident, Damien Owens, said he was concerned about the newly recruited APD officers, who have not had enough training to handle crisis calls. I've been there at Sycamore Square and Peppertree Way. It is a very toxic environment."
