Cleveland Community Police Commission

The lawsuit alleges Goodrick was denied a promotion because he is a white man.

The commission has struggled to move forward with a nearly three-month-old request by Antoine Tolbert.

The promotions of Kevin Kincaid and Ralph Valentino to commander of the Bureau of Special Services and Fourth District were changed to interim.

An opinion from outside counsel hired by the commission raised doubts about whether Bibb had the authority to reject the CPC's choice for its executive director.

At its Dec. 19 meeting, the CPC established a process for reviewing and approving any new or revised police policies.

The 13-member Community Police Commission's most recent meeting was derailed after a dispute over naming a permanent executive director.

City councilmembers focused on the commission's $1 million grantmaking fund at a committee meeting Wednesday. City agencies needs council approval for expenditures over $50,000.

The report from the Community Police Commission found the city has completed about 39% of reforms under the consent decree, down 3 points from the previous report.

Council signed off on Mayor Justin Bibb's ten nominees with little pushback.

Activists say Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb did not follow the charter amendment that created the new Community Police Commission when he chose the members.
