Commission Continued from Pagel what the public perception is go ing to be about the discussion we’re having right now,” she said. “Maybe the timing is all wrong.” Nathanson wanted the City Manager to look over the powers of the proposed commission be fore the council deliberated on it. She said otherwise concrete dis tinctions between the police com mission and the citizen review board would alienate residents who voted against city measure 20 99. “To some it will be 'oh good, the council is setting up an exter nal review board,’” Nathanson said. “To others it will be that the council ignored their no vote.” Councilman Scott Meisner said creating a police commission could represent hypocrisy on the part of the city, which hasn't tried to oppose measures voters passed in the election, such as placing a flag on Skinner’s Butte. “If we’re sensitive to no votes in one realm, we need to be sensitive to no votes in another realm,” he said. Councilman Ken Tollenaar worried about a part of the strate gy of the police commission to create neighborhood police com missions. “The poor police department is going to be doing nothing but go ing to meetings,” he said. “Al though it’s hard for them to do anything wrong if they just go to meetings." With members reservations in mind, the council moved unani mously to put the issue of a police commission to the debate of a public forum.
