Policing in Rochester Survey Comments
PLEASE NOTE THAT FOR TRANSPARENCY, COMMENTS IN THIS REPORT ARE NOT EDITED AND MAY CONTAIN OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE. Resp. ID Comments Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 1 No Yes Yes Yes Unsure Yes Panhandling has gotten out of control throughout the city. This acutely affects quality of life for city residents and also presents a horrible image to people who live outside the city who we depend on to patronize our businesses. This should be top priority for City Hall. In order to discourage this behavior, the punishment should be drug/alcohol rehabilitation and/or mental health 3 counseling. Yes Yes Yes No Yes Let the police accountability board operate with it's full authority, including 5 disciplinary powers, like the residents voted for them to do. Yes Yes Unsure Yes No Actively try to reduce poverty in Rochester in conduction with better 6 policing reform Yes Yes Yes Yes Unsure Reallocation of funds in the city budget, specifically I saw that new departments were being built in areas. It is far more important to put those resources into areas that would benefit from it. Police’s role in our communities is too broad and should be narrowed down. Furthermore The police agencies within Monroe County should all reexamine the hiring standards for police officers (Bachelor’s degree at minimum). Modern policing develops a culture of rewarding silence. There needs to be a negotiation with the police unions to not only prevent officers from being rehired, but also come up with a form of licensure for officers so that if they violate the terms of their duty then they have their license revoked.

Read the Letter to Cuomo
October 16, 2017 Via E-mail The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo Governor of New York State New York State Capitol Building Albany, NY 12224 Dear Governor Cuomo: As community organizations representing more than 200,000 members across New York City and State, we are concerned and disappointed that you are rolling out the red carpet for Amazon. Instead of offering financial incentives to a multi-billion dollar company that already has a significant presence in New York, you should push Amazon to be a better corporate citizen and improve how it treats communities and workers. New York communities are facing massive cuts to public goods and services, and working families are struggling to make ends meet. We cannot afford to give away our tax dollars to corporations that don’t need them. Amazon’s footprint in New York has grown rapidly in recent years: The company has a large distribution center in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, and is planning a similar facility in Staten Island, along with a huge new office on the Westside of Manhattan. If Amazon opens its second corporate headquarters here, it will be one of the largest employers in New York. Nationally, Amazon has received at least $1 billion in state and local subsidies, but often communities, workers, small businesses, and government revenues are severely harmed by Amazon’s expansion. Consider evidence from an eye-opening recent report, “Amazon and Empty Storefronts”: In 2015, Amazon sold more than $55 billion in retail goods, but avoided paying $704 million in sales taxes. Amazon sales produced a net loss of more than 200,000 retail jobs, and a loss of more than $1 billion in revenue to state and local governments.1 If Amazon is going to continue to grow its operations across New York City and State, it must improve its business model and its treatment of communities and workers.
