In a news release issued on Wednesday, Black said the full measure will seek to identify «confrontations for which personnel needs are not met and which need for additional personnel must be addressed.» The resolution states that, «it is important to understand that all our city police officers who are currently assigned to the office of city attorney and city attorney’s assistant are not, under any circumstances, being fired or moved to a new city police department.»
