Sherry Howell is a Cleveland homeowner who is concerned about safety and police response time in light of the ongoing Cleveland police staffing shortage.
Howell told News 5 she's repeatedly had to call police about disturbances in her neighborhood this year, and even though she understands there is a shortage of officers, she worried police are taking too long to get to her home.
“I really think that it’s unfortunate, but I also think the city needs to take an initiative and offer more incentives," Howell said. “I think the city needs to look at that and re-evaluate their process for hiring these police officers.” Polensek said the Cleveland police shortage is not being adequately addressed at a time when crime, violence and police response times are growing.
We have high standards because the public – through the passage of Issue 24 – has made it clear they demand best-in-class officers. Our public safety forces must consist of the best and brightest officers because the public deserves nothing less. We also owe that to our current officers and their families to ensure that they can count on qualified and competent colleagues."
