Councilman O'Neill. 19 (Microphone not on.) 20 COUNCILMAN O'NEILL: First, I 21 wanted to make that clear. I don't want 22 you getting nervous in your position 23 there replacing the President. 24 I have a firefighter plaque 25 dedication of two firefighters in my Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 4 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 district, Firefighter Daniel Sweeney and 3 Lieutenant Robert Neary. The dedication 4 is at their firehouse at Castor and 5 Kensington. I'll be going there. 6 Fortunately, the Commissioner and I had a 7 chance to talk today about some of the 8 questions I would have been discussing 9 and he answered them fully as well as 10 possible, and so I don't even have to 11 leave any questions with you to ask. 12 Okay? 13 COUNCILMAN JONES: 14 Councilman -- 15 COUNCILMAN O'NEILL: Thank you. 16 COUNCILMAN JONES: -- you can 17 reach me by text if you need to. 18 COUNCILMAN O'NEILL: Thank you. 19 Thank you, Commissioner. 20 COUNCILMAN JONES: Thank you. 21 Commissioner, please state your 22 name for the record and begin your 23 testimony. 24 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: 25 Mr. Chairman, good morning to you. Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 5 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 Charles H. Ramsey, Police Commissioner, 3 Philadelphia Police Department. With me 4 to my right is First Deputy Commissioner 5 Richard J. Ross, Jr. and to my left is 6 Deputy Commissioner William Blackburn, 7 who heads our Support Services section. 8 Sir, we have submitted our 9 testimony for the record, and with your 10 permission, I will not read the 11 testimony. I want to save as much time 12 for questions as possible, but I would 13 like to make a brief statement, and that 14 is to thank the men and women of the 15 Philadelphia Police Department at all 16 levels for the outstanding job they did 17 last year and into this year so far in 18 terms of crime fighting. I also want to 19 thank members of the community and clergy 20 and others that have helped and members 21 of the Council, in particular those that 22 have councilmanic districts. I know 23 about the close relationships that you 24 have working with your district captains. 25 I get a lot of feedback on that, and I Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 6 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 know that you've been very supportive and 3 helpful in our efforts to make the 4 streets of our city as safe as we 5 possibly can. 6 So I just wanted to say that 7 and to thank everyone, because without 8 that support, without that assistance, we 9 would not see the kinds of improvements 10 that we have been able to see here in 11 Philadelphia. 12 COUNCILMAN JONES: Thank you 13 for your comments, Commissioner. Please 14 proceed. 15 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: With 16 that, I'm willing to take any questions 17 you may have. We're happy with our 18 budget, so we don't have any issues 19 there, so... 20 COUNCILMAN JONES: I think that 21 might be a first in these Chambers 22 where -- 23 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: We'll 24 make it happen, sir. 25 COUNCILMAN JONES: Well, a Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 7 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 couple of things. And I guess we are 3 honored by the fact that we do have a 4 good working relationship. I talked to 5 other members in this body, and they 6 know, many of them, know their police 7 captains by their first name and 8 definitely know their cell phone numbers 9 and aren't afraid to use it. Me in 10 particular, I have two -- actually, three 11 great captains in the 39th, the 5th, and 12 the 19th. I work most closely with 13 Captain Bologna of the 19th, who has 14 never not returned a call and never -- 15 you know, he does say no, but his no's 16 come quicker than even his yes's, and 17 that is comforting in my ability to deal 18 with the many issues that we have. 19 So we appreciate the 20 cooperative relationship, and together, I 21 think we can make a difference. 22 A couple of quick questions. 23 So how are we doing by way of crime 24 stats? We have the written testimony, 25 but could you highlight. Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 8 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: With our 3 crime numbers? 4 COUNCILMAN JONES: Is crime 5 down? 6 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: Well, so 7 far this year, sir, we're down in every 8 category of crime. We have a slight 9 uptick in homicides. We have a 10 10 percent increase over last year, which is 11 six more murders this year than we had 12 last year. And as you recall, last year 13 was a record year in terms of the number 14 of murders, the lowest number since 1967. 15 We had a very unfortunate set of 16 circumstances to start us off. We had 17 one triple homicide. We had, I believe, 18 four double homicides. But things have 19 slowed down a bit, and we'll continue to 20 push forward. 21 Our shootings are down. 22 Burglary, robbery, every other major 23 category of crime, Part I crime, down I 24 believe 8 percent over this year -- last 25 year rather and shootings down some 12 Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 9 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 percent. 3 So we're continuing to make 4 progress. If you compare fiscal year, 5 our numbers are actually down from the 6 fiscal year of last year 10 percent, what 7 it was in FY13. So we're continuing to 8 make progress. We're not satisfied 9 obviously, but we're continuing to push 10 forward. 11 COUNCILMAN JONES: So I'm going 12 to yield to Councilman Greenlee and then 13 come back. I have a series of questions 14 just on the drilling down into the 15 details. 16 Councilman Greenlee. 17 COUNCILMAN GREENLEE: Thank 18 you, Mr. Chairman. 19 Good morning, everyone. 20 (Good morning.) 21 COUNCILMAN GREENLEE: 22 Congratulations on all you've done and 23 continue to do in fighting crime in the 24 City. 25 As far as recruitment of Strehlow & Associates, Inc. (215) 504-4622 10 1 4/9/14 - WHOLE - BILL 140144, etc. 2 officers, have you seen any changes in 3 how you're approaching that or how has 4 that been generally going, particularly, 5 say, reaching outside? 6 COMMISSIONER RAMSEY: We have 7 seen changes, sir, and we've been 8 struggling. I've been in touch with 9 police chiefs across the country and 10 we've had a lot of discussions around 11 recruitment, and everyone seems to be 12 struggling. Baltimore was with us last 13 week for a couple of days visiting our 14 crime briefing and our Realtime Crime 15 Center and the like, and they're having 16 problems as well. 17 We're trying to get to the 18 bottom of what exactly it is that's 19 causing the problem.

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.

We believe that includes Aramark—as a longtime Philadelphia-based business—and City Council. Aramark is headquartered in the Second Council District, which I represent, and my undersigned colleagues and I all have constituents who work for Aramark—whether at your headquarters, at sports venues, at universities, or beyond. We applaud Aramark for the measures it has already taken to address hourly workers’ needs relating to COVID-19, including expanded sick leave and health benefits, despite revenue losses from pandemic-related business interruption. 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.

We will continue to ramp up intergovernmental efforts to expand support for such workers. At the same time, we urge Aramark to take steps to help employees to offset lost compensation by working with its clients to provide shutdown pay and maintain benefits.

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.

As you well know, our nation is facing disastrous economic fallout from the necessary shutdown of business activity as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. In Philadelphia – a minority majority city with among the highest poverty levels of any major U.S. city – our small and minority-owned businesses are shuttering their doors and our people are at risk of losing everything. We need your support now more than ever before if our local economy is to survive. We respectfully ask that you bring to a vote a minimum of $908 billion for a COVID emergency relief package before the December 11th deadline and commit to the $160 billion in direct and unrestricted funding to cities like Philadelphia. We understand the many challenges you face in managing the competing interests in both chambers of our federal government, but we cannot afford to leave our local businesses, especially the hospitality industry and the thousands of people they employ without the financial safety nets to get them through the winter.

    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
