9 <br /> <br />representatives who analyze the internal administrative personnel processes of EPD and the <br />external monitoring and complaint intake processes of the Auditor’s office. The CRB continually <br />strives to have open and transparent discussion of cases brought before it and provide policy and <br />training recommendations within the confines of the Oregon Public Records Laws and the <br />hundreds of exemptions that exist in Oregon Public Record law. The CRB consistently meets <br />more than the minimum requirements of the ordinance. At most meetings, the entire board is <br />present. The CRB must evaluate difficult personnel and policy issues that impact community <br />members and sworn police personnel. They have been complimentary, critical, inquisitive and <br />decisive. It is an honor and privilege to serve the community of Eugene. In 2018, Eugene’s system <br />of civilian oversight continued to evolve and develop. We look forward to continuing our work <br />and we are committed to improving our processes in service of the community. <br /> <br />Case Review Summaries <br />In preparing for a case review, Board members have complete access to the Internal Affairs <br />investigative file. These materials include call logs, correspondence, body-worn camera video, in- <br />car videos and digitally recorded interviews of complainants, officers, witnesses and others with <br />potentially relevant information. <br /> <br />Board members review file materials, the fact-finding report prepared by the Internal Affairs <br />investigating officer, along with the Adjudication recommendations of the Auditor, the <br />Supervisors and the Chief of Police. During our reviews, the IA investigator is available to answer <br />questions about the complaint investigation. The Lieutenant who supervises Internal Affairs is also <br />available to answer questions regarding department practices, policies and procedures. <br /> <br />The Board follows a case review process delineated in its Policies and Procedures Manual. The <br />Board reviews each case by evaluating and commenting on the complaint handling through the <br />following steps: <br /> <br />1. Auditor’s case presentation. <br />2. Complaint intake and classification. <br />3. Complaint investigation and monitoring. <br />4. Relevant department policies and procedures. <br />5. Policy and/or training considerations. <br />6. Adjudication recommendations. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />June 19, 2019, Work Session – Item 2
