To have the city manager direct a staff work group to work out the details of how we would start with the County and maybe recommend something for the mid-year review, or for the July 1, 2008-2009 budget, that would incorporate the Office of Neighborhood Safety and all the programs that are part of the City's violence prevention efforts with youth and probation
