What happened

The council approved 22 routine items on consent, including a $600,000 agreement to fund Richmond Police Activities League programs and a $250,000 contract to replace turf at Martin Luther King Jr. Field.

The council approved 5-2 monthly public safety reform updates at council meetings, with Butt voting no. The Implementation Subcommittee will now report monthly progress on recommendations from the city's public safety task force that was created after community calls for police reform.

A 5-year agreement with MissionSquare Retirement to manage employee retirement plans was approved unanimously. The company will handle paperwork and records for three employee retirement savings plans.

The council also approved issuing a request for proposals to hire an emergency services data analysis consultant. The consultant will analyze fire and police response times and other emergency services data.
