Direct staff to organize community groups for violence reduction planning
In Plain English
The city wants to bring together local nonprofits and community organizations to develop a plan for reducing violence citywide. Staff would coordinate these groups to identify specific strategies and create a neighborhood revitalization effort. If approved, this launches a planning process but doesn't commit funding for actual programs yet.
