Minneapolis City Council Votes 12-0 To Remove Police Department

(ETH) – The Minneapolis City Council just unanimously voted for a proposed amendment that would remove requirements for the city to maintain a police department from the city’s charter. According to a report from Fox 9 the 12-0 vote is a step toward putting the issue in front of Minneapolis voters on the November ballot.

According to the report the city council is required to fund a police force of a size proportionate to the city’s population however changes that are being considered in the amendment would remove that requirement along with an entire section on the police department.
