Members said the proposed system must explain that it does not replace legally required reporting channels and agreed to seek legal guidance on public records, confidentiality, and possible criminal conduct.

Residents would be able to report incidents without providing identifying information, which members said could reduce fear of retaliation. Anonymous reports may limit follow-up and support, so the system would explain those limits and encourage contact information when follow-up is desired. Staffing, costs, training, data use, and coordination with existing systems remain unresolved before final recommendations are issued.
