Summary
In the coming weeks, Portland City Council will vote on whether to move forward with a Gunshot Detection Pilot.
PCCEP is hosting a town hall on Gunshot Detection Systems including ShotSpotter and EAGL Technology to hear community concerns, questions, and feedback about the technology and any associated future policies. PCCEP hopes to hear input on the following questions: Is Gunshot Detection a good fit for our City? If not, why not? If so, how should it be implemented?
Who We Are
PCCEP is a group of 13 community members who are independent from the City and PPB. Our work includes independent assessment of the implementation of the DOJ Settlement Agreement and gathering input and exchanging information about PPB policies and practices.
