City of Austin Council Message Board

Colleagues,

A special called executive session has been requested to discuss personnel issues related to the Lisa Tatum report and legal issues related to the recent APD officer involved shooting.

Would you please indicate if you’re available Friday for this session, or if you’d rather have this matter heard as part of the work session scheduled for Tuesday of next week.

Steve

Mayor,
I am supportive of a Friday executive session if my colleagues are available. I think there are a number of important and timely issues we need to discuss regarding our police department.
-Greg

Mayor,

I am available Friday. I agree there are pressing and important APD issues we should discuss ASAP.

Delia

Colleagues

I am available on Friday also, and would prefer not to wait until Tuesday due to the critical nature of these issues. My preference would be early afternoon if possible.

Best Regards
Ann Kitchen
City Council D5

Mayor,
I am available Friday and that would be my preference given the critical and time-sensitive nature of this subject.

Best,
Kathie Tovo
Council Member District 9

Mayor & Council Members:

On behalf of CM Ellis, I can confirm she is available on Friday to discuss these issues.

I can also be available if before 11am or after 2pm.

Looks like Friday afternoon works for most folks, so we’ll go at 3 pm on Friday.

After discussing with legal and the Manager, it was determined the cleanest way to post this as an agenda item is to include it in our quarterly Executive Session discussions with the Manager.

I also included an item on COVID-19 in case we want to continue our discussion from today.

I'm definitely available and look forward to this very important discussion at 3pm on Friday.

Natasha
