Civic Federation President Laurence Msall said it is “very difficult to track how much is going into policing,” how much is tied to complying with a federal consent decree and where exactly the nearly $100 million increase in the Chicago Police Department’s $1.87 billion budget is going.

pushed back hard after the Civic Federation on Wednesday used a public hearing on her proposed $16.4 billion budget to demand that the city "dramatically increase transparency around" police spending.

The consent decree, which outlines reform steps the police department must take, is the "best road map to modernizing the police force, building legitimacy" and repairing trust between citizens and police shattered by the court-ordered release of the Laquan McDonald shooting video, Msall said. But those percentages do nothing to "improve the public’s understanding of what the city is doing to achieve outcomes" and how those reforms are "impacting personnel levels and expenditures," according to the Civic Federation’s analysis.

Msall on Wednesday demanded that the police department "publish a staffing allocation study" — including "data metrics used" — to help the public understand how "staffing and deployment decisions" are made. Lightfoot insisted there is "no lack of transparency around" her budget, "particularly when it comes to public safety."
