Vote postponed again on Police & Domestic Violence?

It looks like the Pittsburgh City Council vote on the Police Domestic Violence ordinance which was supposed to take place today may be put on hold again.

From what we hear, the Pittsburgh Police Bureau has come up with a revised version of policies that they've written that they want to become the new ordinance however, only they have an electronic version at this point (no google document for you).

I wish I could write my own rules for my job -- don't we all?

We trust Doug Shields and Bill Peduto to stay on top of this (not to give away the store to the cops), but we'd certainly like to see more support from the rest of Council.

You can see more of what may actually come up before Council this week at Peduto's blog here and here.
