By Oil Le" The Daily Iowan The Iowa City Police Citizens RevieW Board met Tuesday night ;to discuss goals for 2000 that it had previously set. _ Among the issues the board addressed were a trip to the state Police Academy at Camp Dodge and improving the public's and the police department's percep- tions of the board. The board will travel as a group to Camp Dodge on Dec. 8 to expe- rience an ethics seminar given to those enrolled at the academy. There was some concern among board members that the trip would violate the open meetings law; if the board recesses and does not dia- cues board issues, there would be no violation, said Catherine Pugh, the board's legal representative. The board also decided compil- ing data on Iowa City police reports, such as a use -of --farce logs, should remain an issue to be addressed later. It would be pre- mature to discuss it now because the board has limited information, said board member John Stratton. The board discussed its rela- tions with Iowa City police offi- cers at length and decided the beat position the board could maintain wall one of neutrality. "We don't want to give the impression that were the odcer% friends; we need to remain neu- tral," Stratton said. Iowa City police Capt. Thin Wid- mer and board chairman John Wat- son agreed that neutrality was best. "We need to continue the job we're doing and hope the proof is in the pudding," Watson said, say- ing the board's consensus is that it has done a good job of treating complainants and police fairly. The board also decided that the complaint forma it has in place are suSdent, even though Widmer said investigators sometimes run into more issues than were originally noted by complainants. Personal interviews between Iowa City police command staff and complainants often reveal additional complaints, but the only way to alleviate that is to have personal interviews with the board as well, Widmer said, — something the board was unwill- ing to do at this point. 'The mechanism is there; you just need to be more aware," he said.

The Monticello City Council began looking into establish- ment of such a board after a Sept. 17 incident in which po- lice allegedly entered a home with drawn guns. Kane gave his recommenda- tions to the City Council on Wnday. Kane suggested a system un- der which the chairperson of the board and the chief of police would review officer actions be- fore taking them to the full five -member board. He also strongly recom- mended the board be limited to review of police conduct out- lined in a 1997 city ordinance on permissible standards for use of force. When council members asked if any other, conduct, such as harassment, could be reviewed by the board, Kane responded, "According to what standards? Within OP 124 (the use -of -force ordinance) you have a set of written procedures that the po- lice officers are familiar with, since they are the same as those taught by the Iowa Policy Acad- emy. If you try to judge all police behavior according to some vague criteria, you're only going to get into trouble." Outgoing Monticello Mayor Dennis McDermott told the council that most complaints about police are made to him personally. "And 99 times out of 100, those are resolved to everyone's satisfaction without getting in the paper," he said. To that, council member Nels Petersen replied, "But we saw what happened with that 100th time." Kane then -added, "But that is exactly what a board using OP 124 as a guideline is set up to deal with." The council put off action to give members time to study the ordinance. In other business, Matt Boll - Witt, appointed by the council to fill the vacant Ward 2 seat, was sworn in as a council mem- ber. Bollwitt replaces Bud John- son, who ran a successful write- in campaign for mayor. The City Council also accept- ed the resignation of 20-year city, employee Mary Hunt. Dur- ing the last four years, Hunt was assistant to the mayor. The council put off advertising fora replacement until it could ex- amine the job description and consult with incoming mayor Johnson.
