Suggestion
Include something about how long of a period - At least annually? More frequently for new or otherwise probationary members?

replies
Question
Where did these categories come from? Why is Middle Eastern/Northern African missing? What if someone identifies as bi- or multi- racial? etc ...
replies
Suggestion
Reword. You want to provide safety/protection/respect to everyone, regardless of their racial, cultural, or other differences. You do that in a manner that is aware of and sensitive to their differences.
replies
Suggestion
Omit "inherent".
replies
Suggestion
Why is this policy focused on traffic stops, when this is transit police, who should not be doing traffic stops at all? The policy should be focused on interacting with people on buses and at bus stops, not on stopping people who are driving vehicles. There is no mention at all of interacting with people on transit.
replies
Suggestion
Appropriate turn-around time period of violation investigations should be spelt out as a set number of days.
replies
Suggestion
Use of lethal weapons should be strongly frowned upon in responding to calls. This is relevant to the document in general.
replies
Suggestion
Just as it's a Supervisor responsibility to react to retaliatory action against reporters, it's Member responsibility to never engage in those practices and work to hold other member's accountable for any retaliatory actions.
replies
Question
The Chief of Police and supervisors should receive and review training materials. Training should also include in-service training on recognizing and valuing community diversity and cultural differences, including implicit bias. What does Texas require?
