Resident Complaint <br />Carolyn Curti distributed a copy of a letter from a resident who was upset with the way a <br />�olice ofiicer responded when he stopped her becatise she had expired license tabs. Chair <br />MeKenzie had spoken with the complainant at great length and asked her to put the comptaint <br />in writing. She told McKenzie that she wanted an apology and for the police to undergo <br />training about people with Multiple Sclerosis. In the letter, the complainant aclmowledged <br />tnat the officer did not do anything wrong, but that he created such stress and anaciety for her <br />because of her disability. Several Commissioners said lhat based on her letter, the person r�vas <br />not discriminated against. <br />Commissioners discussed how to best respond to the letter. One commissioner opined that an <br />apology was not in order because the oificer was just doing his job_ Another commissioner <br />said the officer gave her a break, having her car towed to the License Center rather than <br />having it impounded. Another commissioner suggested that the officer overreacted. <br />Commissioners suggested that the Commission send a letter acknowledging her letter but <br />further action was not warranted. Commissioners asked Carolyn Curti to check with Lt.
