Mayor Justin Bibb will nominate 10 of the applicants. City Council will nominate three. All the nominations will go to council for confirmation.
After receiving 281 applications to join the Community Police Commission, Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb is ready to begin the vetting process to determine who he'll nominate to the 13-member body, which will have final say over police discipline.CLEVELAND, Ohio – Cleveland has received 281 applications for the 13-member body that will have final say on police discipline, among other broad civilian oversight powers of police.
Bibb on Wednesday announced a two-step process his administration will use to determine which 10 people it wants to nominate to the commission, according to a news release. Both panels will be chaired by the city’s chief ethics officer, Delanté Spencer Thomas, “to maintain consistency and integrity of the evaluation process,” the release stated.“We’re encouraged by the volume of applications received to join the new Community Police Commission,” Bibb said in the release. “It shows that citizens are engaged and committed to police reform.
The charter amendment approved by voters last fall requires that members of the Community Police Commission represent a broad slice of Cleveland – “representative of the racial, social, economic, and cultural interests of the community, including those of the racial-minority, immigrant/refugee, LGBTQ+, youth, faith, business, and other communities, to reflect the overall demographics of Cleveland residents.
