“Maybe they want to do it. Another way to do it would be the commission auditor. I hesitate to send the commission auditor into our police department. I think the optics of that are just horrible. And frankly, my working relationship with this police department is such that when they tell me we are unaware of any instance whatsoever in which this tool has been misused within the city limits of Pembroke Pines, I believe them. Because I happen to know that they do not tolerate that kind of behavior, and they would have acted on it. So I don't feel that we have to go back in time and try to dig…”

“There's a resolution. We need a legal memo from you. We'd like some additional information from the chief to the extent that he can provide it. about any suggestions to improve the program. That's what I'm hearing, Commissioner. I'm not hearing that we want to do an audit of the police department, but that we want to have some information from them about how to make the program better, if that's even possible, what internal policies can be made, a legal memo about our status and so forth, contractual issues, and certainly a resolution for the state to get their arms around this and fix it.”

“I have absolutely no objection to that. Let's include the congressional delegation. Let's include the Broward delegation. Let's make sure that our resolution gets the attention of social media. I'd like to see it, once it's adopted, posted in its entirety, get it to the press. Let's let people know that we didn't just do this We care about it, and we want to see a solution come out of Tallahassee, which is the only proper place where it can come from, because they're the ones that authorized the use of these cameras. So I think that covers it. Commissioners, I have one last item on old…”

“If you all want to put together public forums, I think that that's fine. And however it's decided to be presented, I think that's great. That's fair game, Mayor.”
