\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSacramento County supervisors are reconsidering funding for the sheriff\u2019s Problem Oriented Policing (POP) team after initially discussing budget cuts that could impact specialized units. “So on the chopping block originally was everything from our POP team, our problem oriented policing team, our HOT team, which is our homeless outreach team. We had Marine enforcement,” said Edward Igoe with the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office.During last night\u2019s meeting, supervisors voted 4-1 to reconsider funding for the POP team. “Several of us on the dais intend to do, which is restore all the way up through and including the POP unit with the sheriff’s office,” District 5 Supervisor Pat Hume said. “So I’d like to make the motion to consider that aspect of the budget.” Kim Nava, Sacramento County spokesperson, explained that the POP team was initially slated for review in September but was brought forward for earlier consideration. “Pop was something that they had indicated they wanted to look at later and, possibly, put that in the September revised recommended budget,” Nava said. “However, Supervisor Hume, at the June 16th meeting, asked that it be reconsidered at an earlier date.”The sheriff\u2019s office described the POP team as a unit focused on long-term quality-of-life issues. “One of the beautiful things about the POP team is they have the ability to work with the community and that includes whether maybe it’s specific, family specific, neighborhoods also, or small businesses,” Igoe said.The sheriff\u2019s office also said cuts to the POP team could negatively impact efforts to address crime. “The ongoing retail theft that’s occurring at stores, ongoing transient problems, look at The casinos That have been broken up recently,” Igoe said. “Again, those are all investigations that get started with the pop Team.” The funding decision for the POP team will be reconsidered at the July 14 meeting.See more coverage of top California stories here | Download our app | Subscribe to our morning newsletter | Find us on YouTube here and subscribe to our channel\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
