CHICAGO – City leaders approved a new layer of civilian police oversight Wednesday after years of protests against officer misconduct.
The City Council voted 36-13 to pass an ordinance calling for the creation of a seven-member Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability. The commission will be comprised of people nominated by three-member councils of Chicago s 22 police districts and appointed by the mayor.
For decades, Chicago s police department has been besieged by claims of misconduct and corruption, with many elected officials and civilians alike calling for reforms and new methods to hold police accountable.
