MacConnell reported the committee recommendation of MacConnell for Chair and Townsend as Vice -Chair. Townsend declined the nomination. Jensen proposed that perhaps the election be postponed to a time when more CPRB members were present, specifically Mekies, who was on the nominating committee. Ford noted that bylaws state the vote is to take place at the first CPRB meeting in October. Remington asked if it was appropriate to adjourn this meeting, reschedule, and consider the rescheduled date as the first meeting in October. Counselor Ford said it would be okay to do so. He added that the process requires the nominating committee share their report and nominations, however, the Board members may nominate anyone regardless of the committee's suggestions. Board members present agreed to move forward with the meeting. MOTION TO FIX METHO❑ OF VOTING Motion by Remington, seconded by Downing, to fix the method of voting as a voice vote. Motion carried, 4/0. (Mekies, Townsend, Vander VE!gte absent) NOMINATIONS FOR OFFICE OF CHAIRPERSON Remington asked for nominations. Ford explained since the bylaws state that a vote requires a majority of the entire board, the four members present would have to vote unanimously. If not, the meeting would need to be adjourned and rescheduled later in October. Remington nominated Downing for Chair and Downing nominated MacConnell for Chair.

COMMUNITY POLICE REVIEW BOARD GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES Established in 1997, by ordinance #97-3792, the Iowa City Police Citizens Review Board formerly known as Citizens Police Review Board and now known as Community Police Review Board (hereafter referred as the CPRB), consisted of five members appointed by the City Council. In February of 2022, the Board increased to seven members as per ordinance #22-4873. The Board was established to review investigations into claims of police misconduct, and to assist the Police Chief, the City Manager, and the City Council in evaluating the overall performance of the Police Department by reviewing the Police Department's investigations into complaints. The Board is also required to maintain a central registry of complaints and to provide an annual report setting forth the numbers, types, and disposition of complaints of police misconduct. The Board shall hold at least one community forum each year for the purpose of hearing citizens' views on the policies, practices, and procedures of the Iowa City Police Department. To achieve these purposes, the Board complies with Chapter 8 of the Iowa City Code and the Board's By -Laws and Standard Operating Procedures and Guidelines. ACTIVITIES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022 Meetings The CPRB tentatively holds monthly meetings on the second Tuesday and special meetings as necessary. During FY22 the Board held fifteen meetings which included two special meetings, and one Community Forum. ICPD Policies/Procedures/Practices Reviewed By CPRB The ICPD regularly provided the Board with monthly Use of Force Reports, Internal Investigation Logs, Demographic Reports, and various Training Bulletins. The Department also provided various General Orders for the Board's review and comment. A senior member of the Police Department routinely attended the open portion of the CPRB meetings and was available for any questions Board members had regarding these reports. Presentations In April of 2022 the Board held its fourteenth Community Forum required by the City Charter. The forum was held electronically due to COVID-19 restrictions. Board members introduced themselves and shared a summary of the Board duties. No correspondence was received from the public. Chairperson Nichols shared recommendations that the Board forwarded to City Council for adoption which included expanding the board from five to seven members, allowing a 21-day period for a complainant to respond to the Chiefs Report, and the statute of limitations to file a complaint was increased from 90 days to 180 days. The forum was then opened to the public. There were three members of the public that sent questions to the Board via Zoom Chat. Topics included the importance of building trust between the Police Department and the community, the addition of a "non -police" liaison to the Police Department to address mental health and other social issues, and the number of "sustained" vs "non -sustained" complaints. Board Members In October 2021 officers were nominated with Amanda Nichols as Chair and Theresa Seeberger as Vice -Chair. Due to the resignation of Theresa Seeberger, Orville Townsend was nominated as Vice Chair in March 2022. Melissa Jensen was appointed in April 2022 to fill the unexpired term of Theresa Seeberger. Ricky Downing and Stuart Vander Vegte were appointed to the board in April in response to the amendment of the ordinance increasing the number of members from five to seven. CPRB Annual Report FY 2022 — FINAL 10/12/2022 — 1 COMPLAINTS Number and Type of Allegations Seventeen complaints (21-01, 21-02, 21-03, 21-04, 21-05, 21-06, 21-07, 21-08, 21-09, 22-01, 22-02, 22-03, 22-04, 22-05, 22-06, 22-07, 22-08) were filed during the fiscal year July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022.

The Police Chief summarizes the results of these investigations and indicates in a report (the Chief's Report) to the CPRB whether allegations are sustained or not sustained. (If complaints are made against the Chief, the City Manager conducts the investigation and prepares and submits the reports.) The Board reviews both the citizens' complaint, the Chief's Report and available video footage and decides whether its conclusions about the allegations should be sustained or not sustained. The Board prepares a report which is submitted to the City Council. Of the twenty allegations listed in the fourteen complaints for which the Board reported, none were sustained. Comments The Board made comments and/or recommendations for improvement in police policy, procedures, or conduct in eight of the reports: Complaint #20-02, 20-05, 20-06, 20-07, 20-08 The Board remains divided in its opinions on this incident, even after lengthy deliberations. Consensus was not reached, and the Board voted 3/2 to "Not sustain" this complaint. It was concerning that the dispersal order could not be heard in 2 of the 5 videos, as this indicates that a large portion of the crowd of protesters was unable to hear the order. The Police Chief has told the Board that the department has invested in improved technology to ensure messages reach everyone in any future crowd incidents There was discussion about the Board filing its own complaint of discourtesy, as allowed by Iowa City Code Section 8-8-313. However, the Board did not have access to the videos of the incident until after the 180-day deadline to file a complaint had passed. For this reason, the Board recommends that this CPRB Annual Report FY 2022 — FINAL 10/12/2022 — 5 section of the city code be changed so that the Board has 180 days from the time it receives access to audio/video evidence of an event to file its own complaint, rather than 180 days from the time of the incident. For this complaint, the Board's concerns are addressed here in the comments. It is indisputable that tear gas causes harm. It irritates cells and activates pain receptors, causing "intense burning pain in the eyes, throat, skin and mucous membranes. Tear gas can also cause exaggerated muscle cramping in the eye and sensitivity to light that leads to eye closure. Other effects of tear gas include a difficulty in swallowing, drooling and severe burning in the mouth. In some cases, it can cause an asthma attack or swelling in the area that could potentially lead to asphyxiation or death." The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines tear gas, or riot control agents, as "chemical compounds that temporarily make people unable to function by causing irritation to the eyes, mouth, throat, lungs, and skin." (htt s://www.usatoda .com/star /news/factcheek/2020/06/06/fact-check-its-true-tear- as-chemicai- weapon-banned-war/3156448001 /) It is because of this well -established harm that "the 1925 Geneva Protocol categorized tear gas as a chemical warfare agent and banned its use in war shortly after World War I." This ban was strengthened by the U.N.'s Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) that outlawed the use of riot control agents in warfare and went into effect in 1997. If an officer believes that he/she must cause harm to protect the public, that should be a solemn thing. However, some of the Officers in the tape seemed to be excited to have the opportunity to deploy munitions, and the laughter, insulting and dehumanizing comments, and remarks about how "amazing" and "neat" the gas was gave the appearance that some officers were detached from the harm they were causing. This leads to questions and concerns about the culture of the department. While the changes made to the Use of Force Policy following this incident are beneficial steps that will hopefully prevent a recurrence of ICPD involvement in teargassing non -combative protesters, the internal climate portrayed in the body -cameras of officers involved in this incident should be addressed. Complaint #21-01 Prior to issuing a citation, an officer would preface the conversation with words to the effect: This is a notice to appear in court on [date] and plead not guilty or guilty. Signing this does not mean you are guilty of anything. The law states you have to sign this citation. In addition, prior to giving the citation consider giving a brief statement of facts supporting it. For instance, in a case like this, say two independent witnesses said you pulled out in front of the other vehicle. Perhaps tell subject they can fight this in court. Double check things like violations of SR-22 before telling someone that they are required to have SR-22 Insurance. Officers should attempt to refrain from resting hands-on holsters/guns/stun gun/ other weapons when in the public view. While these stances are normal to officers who carry a gun every day, many people have never even touched a gun and may feel intimidated or even threatened when an officer has his/her hand on a gun. This does not apply to situations when an officer believes, per recognized procedure, that he/she may need to use a weapon. Complaint #21-03 While most of the Board felt the use of force was justified, some Board members found it concerning that the complainant was handcuffed by an officer who walked up behind the complainant without announcing the officer's presence or telling the complainant in advance that the officer was going to do so, or that the complainant was being taken into custody. At least one CPRB Annual Report FY 2022 — FINAL 10/12/2022 — 6 Board member views that scenario as a questionable action that likely led to an unnecessary escalation of the incident. Additionally, there are concerns over Officers not following city and institutional mask mandates. At the time of the incident, the City of Iowa City had a mask mandate in place that stated "every person in Iowa City must wear a face covering that covers their nose and mouth when in a public place. That includes anywhere out -doors in public when one cannot stay six (6) feet away from others." The University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics also had (and still has) a policy mandating masks in its buildings. Regardless of this, body camera videos of incident showed officers inside of the emergency room at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics unmasked. Officers are expected to consistently follow policies and laws. When they don't, it brings to question how they can be tasked with enforcing policies and laws if they do not consistently follow them themselves. Complaint #21-07 While the Board finds this complaint to be not sustained, the Board does have some serious concerns about what it witnessed in the body cam footage of this incident. The most problematic of those is that the last thing that was said by one of the officers before the recording ended after the conclusion of the incident was "I kind of hoped she was gonna run." This seems to indicate that this officer was eager for a chase or a fight, and that is not the type of attitude that someone wielding the power of a police officer should have. Additionally, some Board members expressed concerns about the use of curse words by one of the officers while conversing with the complainant and their companion while on duty and in uniform. A higher level of professionalism is expected from officers. Name -Clearing Hearings The ordinance requires that the Board not issue a report critical of the conduct of a sworn officer until after a name -clearing hearing has been held. During this fiscal period, the Board scheduled one name -clearing hearing. Complaint Histories of Officers City ordinance requires that the annual report of the CPRB must not include the names of complainants or officers involved in unsustained complaints and must be in a form that protects the confidentiality of information about all parties. In the 14 complaints covered by the FY22 annual report a total of 20 officers were involved with allegations against them. ICPD Internal Investigations Logs The Board reviewed the quarterly ICPD Internal Investigations Log, provided by the Chief of Police.

Andrew McKnight RE: May 2022 Use of Force Review DATE: October 21st, 2022 The Iowa City Police Department policy requires an employee to complete a written report for any reportable use of force. Reportable use of force is defined in the Department's General Order 99-05, which is titled Use of Force and available for public viewing on the department's website. This policy provides employees with guidelines on the use of deadly and non -deadly force. Upon receipt of the report, the supervisor is responsible for completing an administrative critique of the force. This process includes interviews with involved employees, body worn and in -car camera review, review of any additional available video, and review of written reports. The employee's use of force report and the supervisor's critique is then forwarded to the Captain of Field Operations and the Chief of Police for final review and critique. On a monthly basis, the previous month's use of force reports and supervisor critiques are reviewed by an administrative review committee consisting of a minimum of three sworn personnel. This Use of Force Committee consists of two supervisors as designated by the Chief of Police and one officer, typically a certified use of force instructor. The Use of Force Review Committee met on October 21 st, 2022. It was composed of Sgt. McKnight, Sgt. K. Bailey, and Officer Colin Fowler. For the review of submitted reports in May, the Review Committee documented the following: • 37 individual officers were involved in 22 separate incidents requiring use of force. • There were no documented cases of an officer exercising his/her duty to intervene and the review of the incidents did not indicate that an officer failed their duty to intervene. • Out of the 22 uses of force, 20 involved force being used against people. There were two animals euthanized by officers. • Out of the 37 officers involved in the 20 uses of force against people, 5 superficial injuries were sustained by suspects and 2 superficial injury was sustained by an officer. • No violations of policy were noted during this review period. • Out of the 20 uses of force against people, arrests were made 16 times (80%). • Mental health was identified by officers as being a factor in seven of the uses of force used against persons (31 %). • Drugs and/or alcohol was identified by officers as being a factor in twelve of the 20 uses of force against persons (60%). • Out of the 20 times force was used on persons, three were identified as white Females (15%), eleven were identified as white males (55%), three were identified as black males (15%) and four were identified as black females (20%). • Out of the 22 uses of force, the average number of officers involved in the force was 1.6 In total during this time, the ICPD had 5,655 calls for service with 20 calls for service resulting in force being used on persons.

MEMORANDUM DATE: November 15, 2022 TO: CPRB Board Members FROM: Patrick J. Ford Re: proposed revision to Ordinance 8-8 At Jerri MacConnell's request, I have drafted the following language for a revision to Section 8-8-3(B) of the CPRB ordinance (with suggested additions shown with underlined text): Any person with personal knowledge of the alleged police misconduct may file a complaint with the board. In order to have "personal knowledge", the complainant must have been directly involved in the incident or witnessed the incident. A person who observes an incident solely on social media television or other media outlets does not have the requisite "personal knowledge" needed to authorize such person to file a complaint. If the person with personal knowledge is underage or otherwise unable to complete a complaint form, the complaint may be filed by such person's designated representative. The City Manager, the Police Chief, the City Council or the board itself may file a complaint based on a reasonable belief that police misconduct has occurred regardless of personal knowledge. The person or official filing the complaint may hereafter be referred to as the "complainant". If the board votes in favor of this (or similar) amendment, then the language on the website and the complaint form itself should also be changed, since this Section 8-8-3(B) is quoted online and on the form. �ty°f 10WACITY FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: 11 /7/2022 Contact: Lee Hermiston, Public Safety Information Officer Phone 319-356-5273 Applications are being accepted for the 2023 Community Police Academy Applications are now being accepted for the 2023 Community Police Academy.
