Domestic violence is a blight that is as complex as it is ever-changing, because technology offers opportunities for abusers to exert even more control over their victims’ lives.

Bringing 311 to the county is a common-sense way for us to bolster emergency responses, improve constituent services, alleviate undue pressure on our emergency call center operators and give community members greater peace of mind in their daily lives.

A countywide infrastructure audit and analysis would not only improve planning and accountability, but also strengthen public trust. With so many pressing safety demands competing for resources, it is essential for us to demonstrate a clear, data-driven approach to how and where we invest taxpayer dollars.
