Hello, {{ person.firstname | default: 'friend' }}.







Any system that does not represent the values of the community it serves

should

be rethought and retooled. That's as true of police departments as it is of

street and city planning.







The Minneapolis City Council announced Sunday that they would begin work to

disband and replace the Minneapolis Police Department.







"It’s been interesting to listen to the reaction of my local friends and

neighbors, many of whom believe that disbanding the police department will

mean

no law enforcement presence at all," Strong Towns President Chuck Marohn .

"It doesn’t mean that at all."







What it could mean is a more fiscally resilient city that's safer for all

of its

residents.







We, along with countless organizations across the country, invite you to

imagine, and work toward, that future.







We wish you health and safety.







– Lauren at Strong Towns
