This email comes from outside of City government. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender. Dear Darrell and Kim, I am emailing you today to let you know that I do not support the creation of a new police station at 21st and Diamond, in the heart of the diamond st historical district. There is already a police station just a few blocks away on Montgomery. The people of Philadelphia say no to backroom deals between city council and the historical commission. Stop the over-policing of North Philly. When you meet to discuss the issue of Friday, June 12, I urge you to say no. loud and clear. Thank you, Jacob Al-Dookhi, North Philly Resident https://outlook.office365.com/mail/deeplink?version=2020060101.15&popoutv2=1 1/1 6/10/2020 Mail - Kim Chantry - Outlook Deny New PPD Station in Diamond Street District!

Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender. Hello Ms. Chantry, My name is Brian Yansak and I am a Philadelphia resident in area code 19121. I am reaching out today in regard to the request for the Philadelphia Police Department to build a brand new station in the Diamond Street Historic District. In light of recent events, and the push to dismantle and re-imagine the police department as we know it, I would like to voice my concern on this initiative. I believe it would be a very negative disruption to our community if this new station were to be built, especially being placed in a historic & black neighborhood. "Diamond Street District exists because of the population boom in Philly during the 1850s. All of the elaborate structures, including Second Empire and Victorian rowhomes and Gothic Revival churches, were built between 1875 and 1897, namely for the "new rich" of North Broad. Per the nomination, "The row houses and churches of Diamond Street represent one of the most grand and stylistically intact avenue of Victorian architecture in the City of Philadelphia." Can I count on you to help deny this proposal and retain the dignity of one of Philadelphia's historic districts? Thank you! Best, Brian Yansak https://outlook.office365.com/mail/deeplink?version=2020060101.15&popoutv2=1 1/1 6/10/2020 Mail - Kim Chantry - Outlook No Police Station in the Diamond Street Historical District Olivia Wojtkielewicz <[email protected]> Tue 6/9/2020 10:11 PM To: Darrell Clarke <[email protected]>; Kim Chantry <[email protected]> External Email Notice. This email comes from outside of City government. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender. Hello Darrell and Kim, I am a lifelong Philadelphia resident urging you to deny the PPD approval for a new station in the Diamond Street Historical District. The Black community of North Philadelphia will only be negatively affected by the heightened police presence that this station would create, and the money set to go toward its development should instead be reallocated to strengthen this community. Best, Olivia Wojtkielewicz https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox/id/AAQkAGNlZDMxYTUyLWJkNmMtNGY0My05ZjRhLTM1M2IxODQ2ODFhNwAQAH9zYZEFSltNmDeXAsF3… 1/1 6/11/2020 Mail - Kim Chantry - Outlook Request to speak at Historical Commission Meeting on June 12, 2020 [email protected] <[email protected]> Thu 6/11/2020 3:03 PM To: Kim Chantry <[email protected]> External Email Notice. This email comes from outside of City government. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender. Ms. Chantry, My name is Jacqueline Wiggins. I am a long term resident of North Central Philadelphia. I also serve as a committee person for the 32nd Ward-11th Division. I am extremely disturbed by the development to place a new police station for the 22nd police district at 2100 Diamond Street for these reasons: 1-The boundaries of the 22nd Police District are from 10th Street to 33rd Street and from Popular Street to Lehigh Avenue. My understanding is that this new site for the 22nd police district has been discussed with only one RCO, St. Elizabeth. Residents of the 22nd police district nor any other RCOs were notified of this development, thereby limiting discussing about this critical development. One RCO's call for safety cannot be the "only" voice to be heard. 2-Rather than build a police station, we are in need of human value things like decent, livable, and affordable housing. A few amenities like a community room at a police station are not enough for what our neighborhoods need and demand. In addition to housing, we need school facilities free from asbestos and other harmful physical issues that interfere with the learning process for our children and youth. Too many of our schools are simply environmentally unsafe. 3-Diamond Street is in what the Historic Commission has determined as the "Diamond Historic District." Whatever happened to the words "architectural integrity"? The 22nd police district is located in the 5th Councilmanic district where all matter of construction due to gentrification has and is occurring. A police district in a historic district is simply not a rational fit for the families of the area: elders, mothers, fathers, children, and youth. 2100 Diamond Street is not the place for a police station in my estimation. Please do not give Final Approval to this application. Thank you!

This email comes from outside of City government. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender. Hello Ms. Chantry, I am reaching out to you in response to the Philadelphia Police Department's request to establish a station in the historic Diamond St. area of Philadelphia. As a resident of Philadelphia, I am encouraging you to deny the PPD their request. Recent events across both our city and our nation have shown that increased police presence does not make residents safer. Also establishing a new station in a historic district can give the false presentation that the police presence has always been there which is not accurate. In order to maintain the integrity of the district, I ask that you deny this request and continue to preserve the Diamond St. historical district as it currently stands. Please be transparent in your negotiations with the PPD and publicly share the details of any negotiations as this will go a long way in repairing trust between residents and those in power who help preserve and shape our city. Thank you for your time. I sincerely hope you deny the PPD's request and do not approve a new station. All the best, Samantha Whalen https://outlook.office365.com/mail/deeplink?version=2020060101.15&popoutv2=1 1/1 6/10/2020 Mail - Kim Chantry - Outlook Police station huston west <[email protected]> Wed 6/10/2020 7:56 AM To: Darrell Clarke <[email protected]>; Kim Chantry <[email protected]> External Email Notice.

We believe that includes your organizations—which are so intertwined in the social and economic fabric of Philadelphia—and City Council. Moreover, Philadelphia’s stadium complex is headquartered in the Second Council District, which I represent, and my undersigned colleagues and I all have countless constituents who are diehard fans and even employees. We applaud your organizations and your leagues’ governing bodies for making difficult economic choices, including suspension of competition schedules, in response to this pandemic. At the same time, we have worked with our state and federal partners to do our part, mobilizing emergency health, social services, and safety-net initiatives, including expanded eligibility for unemployment benefits. Nevertheless, based upon conversations with hourly workers at locations such as the stadium complex, it is clear that we must do more to support Philadelphians, especially workers who have suddenly and indefinitely lost income. We will continue to ramp up intergovernmental efforts to expand support for such workers.

  • Feb. 7Th 2021 Dear Dr. Hite and Mayor Kenney: the Health And
    Feb. 7th 2021 Dear Dr. Hite and Mayor Kenney: The health and safety of our educators, school staff, students and their families have been at risk for years because of the toxic conditions that persist in many of our school buildings. Our children and our teachers have gotten sick from cancer, asthma, and other respiratory issues they will carry with them for the rest of their lives. Despite our demands for sufficient school facilities funding, government at city, state and federal levels have all failed to provide money to swiftly and safely remediate the lead, asbestos, mold, rodent infestation and other hazardous conditions that our youngest residents have been subjected to for generations. As lawmakers, community leaders, and community advocates on this letter, we stand in solidarity with the workers of Philadelphia, including the unions and their members who work in our public schools. We will not allow them to be shamed, bullied or strong armed into accepting unsafe conditions at any point in their service to our city. The latest push by the School District of Philadelphia to send teachers back into schools has raised deeply troubling questions about sufficient safety precautions and without even a comprehensive plan to vaccinate them before potential classroom exposure. As a group that has advocated for funding to bring school buildings to a basic level of safety and decency, we are deeply troubled by outstanding important concerns about air balancing tests and building readiness. This is outrageous. Our society has a long tradition of undervaluing the lives of those who devote themselves to educating and supporting the next generation, and to caring for the school buildings where they spend their days.

Kenney City Hall, 2nd Floor Philadelphia, PA 19107 Sent via electronic mail Re: Police reform in Philadelphia Mayor Kenney, Philadelphia can’t breathe. In the poorest big city in America, during a global health pandemic and a massive economic crisis, the people of our city are telling us that police reform cannot wait. We must hear them and act decisively. Policing is difficult, dangerous work. It is vitally important work. For exactly those reasons, the Police Department must earn and maintain the trust of the communities it serves. Sadly, many of our most vulnerable citizens feel less safe, not moreso, in the presence of our police. Meaningful policy changes will require a blend of legislation, executive action, collective bargaining, and other means. First, we must recalibrate budget priorities. Our Police Department consumes a sixth of our annual operating budget, three quarters of a billion dollars. Since 2016, the police budget has increased by about $120 million. Given that context, and the deep cuts proposed for virtually every other department, we cannot accept the proposed $14 million increase to the police budget for Fiscal Year 2021. The Police Department—along with the policing profession nationally—faces a crisis of legitimacy. A big part of the problem is that we too often ask the police to solve problems better addressed by social workers, healthcare providers, educators, housing counselors, and others.

    RESOLUTION Declaring each Friday in December of 2020 as “Shop Black Business Friday” in the City of Philadelphia WHEREAS, Black culture runs deep among Philadelphia’s historic sites, artistic havens, cultural offerings—and in Philadelphia’s many Black-owned shops, restaurants, and other businesses; and WHEREAS, These businesses provide local jobs, goods, services, and amenities in neighborhoods throughout Philadelphia, including historically disadvantaged communities; and WHEREAS, Historical structural inequities and systemic racism have presented barriers for Black and Brown entrepreneurs and small business owners to open, operate, and grow; and WHEREAS, Though the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted many small businesses, Black-owned businesses are disproportionately at risk of closure during the pandemic; and WHEREAS, It is estimated at least 40 percent of Black-owned businesses nationally have closed due to the pandemic-induced recession—nearly twice the rate of closure of other businesses; and WHEREAS, In Greater Philadelphia, a 40 percent attrition rate among Black-owned businesses would equate to a loss of 1,135 firms, $993 million in regional revenue, 12,735 jobs, and $345 million in wages; and WHEREAS, VISIT PHILADELPHIA, the tourism marketing organization, is kicking off the holiday season with dedicated marketing efforts to support the economic recovery and growth of local Black- and Brown-owned businesses in the wake of COVID-19; and WHEREAS, The 2020 holiday season is a critical period for the economic health of small

Harris, Vice President United States of America United State of America The White House The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20500 Washington, DC 20500 Re: Terminate ICE contract at the Berks County Residential Center Dear Mr. President & Madam Vice President: As elected leaders representing the communities of Pennsylvania, we ask the White House and the Department of Homeland Security to terminate the contract between Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Berks County in order to end the federal use of the Berks County Residential Center (BCRC). On the morning of February 26, 2021, we celebrated that all the previously-detained families were freed to their loved ones and sponsors. This is the first time in many years that the BCRC has stood without detained immigrant families within its walls. We believe that this decision is only the first step towards ending family detention once and for all in this country. Incarcerating immigrants - whether they be families, children, or individual adults - is cruel, inhumane, abusive, unnecessary and immoral. It is a violation not only of American civil liberties but also of international human rights. We unequivocally stand against new plans to detain, process, incarcerate, or subject immigrant women or any other people to federal actions within the facility. We know that in other detention centers for women, such as the T. Don Hutto Detention Center (Hutto), there has been pervasive sexual abuse, retaliation, medical neglect, and nutritional deprivation. Women in Hutto have been subjected to further inhumane treatment, isolation and separation from family and community.

The ACLU of Pennsylvania urges members of City Council and Mayor Jim Kenney to support the Citizens’ Police Oversight Commission (CPOC), as proposed in Bill 210074, as well as to properly fund what CPOC has been tasked to achieve. Central Region Office PO Box 11761 After the killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Walter Wallace Jr., Daunte Wright, and Harrisburg, PA 17108 Adam Toledo, cities throughout the country have examined the future of policing. 717-238-2258 T 717-236-6895 F Philadelphians joined this national movement and voted for stronger oversight and public accountability. Bill 210074 answers voters’ demands and meets the moral call of this historic moment. As proposed, CPOC would have several tools at its disposal to deliver effective Western Region Office police oversight. First, the Bill grants CPOC with investigatory powers. This is a necessary PO Box 23058 function because reports show the current police-led investigatory process has rejected 85% Pittsburgh, PA 15222 of civilian complaints.1 412-681-7736 T 412-681-8707 F The Bill also grants CPOC the authority to participate in making appropriate charging decisions—a critical task since the penalty range for misconduct is dependent upon how the misconduct is charged within the Department’s disciplinary code.2 CPOC would also have the authority to function as an administrative prosecutor during disciplinary hearings.
