The APD Chief’s Forum members are sponsoring a City Council Candidate Forum to show Councilmembers and Candidates that crime is a major issue in our neighborhoods. Details follow:

WHAT: Crime and Safety Issues City Council Candidates’ Forum
WHERE: City Council Chambers, 301 W. 2nd St., free underground parking!
WHEN: Thursday, May 1, 2008 from 6:30 pm to 8 pm

The volunteer members of the Austin Police Chief’s Forum, a group that represents neighborhoods in all of the APD Patrol Sectors city-wide, request your participation. This will be an historic event because we believe there has never been a citizen-led, neighborhood-based Council Candidate Forum strictly focused on Crime and Safety Issues, usually only the law enforcement associations and their unions hold such events.
