The City Council's Public Safety and Regulatory Services Committee (the committee that held the public hearing about police/city conduct at the ISAG protests, at which so many folks testified) will hear a proposal by Council member Jim Niland on a new City policy regarding police conduct at political demonstrations. Niland's proposal is based on the testimony offered at the earlier public hearings and other discussions he had with folks involved in the ISAG (and other) protests. Jim feels it would be important to have a noticeable public presence at the hearing, even though it will not be open for public testimony (two or three people will be allowed to speak), to show Council members that the issue has not gone away and that there continues to be a demand for a City policy that respects the right to protest. If you can, please come to the hearing. It will be Wednesday, October 4, in room 319 of City Hall. Niland's proposal will be discussed at 4:00 pm. forwarded by jon kelland bryant __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
