How will the Civilian Investigative Panel be composed?
The CIP will be composed of civilians, nominated by the public and approved by the City Commission. Membership on the Panel will be open to all; nominations will be made by the public and approved by the Miami City Commission. The CIP also will have one member who is a professional law enforcement officer – a non-City of Miami Police Officer who will be appointed by the Miami Police Chief. The screening process and other elements of the nomination process will be outlined in an ordinance that Miami City Commission will adopt once the Charter Amendment is approved by voters.
