Permanent 10-hour shifts and funding for 1,743 positions promise more peak-hour coverage but leave response times, staffing, and overtime effects unmeasured. Jett supporters were removed from a contentious budget hearing, while disputed shootings, contradictory body-camera evidence, Flock-reader misuse, and proposed surveillance limits remain active concerns. IMPD's new Flock sign-off protocol offers a limited control response without clear public auditing or enforcement details.
