Multiple Norman community groups and local businesses have issued demands about how police should be funded in the cityâs FY22 budget ahead of Tuesday nightâs budget hearing.
The city council is slated to meet virtually at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, and will hold public comment on the budget at the meetingâs end. Registration for public comment is open on the cityâs website.
A partnership between Norman Collective for Racial Justice, Red Dirt Collective and Social Injustice League of Norman joined together to create the âPeopleâs Budget Coalition,â a group calling for numerous demands regarding this yearâs final budget.
