Good afternoon Mr. Lipton,

I have received your Public Records Request for data from the City of Miami Police Department. I would like clarification on data required on officers who have voluntarily resigned; would that number also include officers who have retried or solely those officers who have terminated their service for other reasons?

Thank you in advance for your response.

Best,

Hi there,

I apologize for the delay in responding to your questions. I would be interested in numbers for those who have retired and who have terminated their service for other reasons. Were those included in the "voluntary resignation" numbers or has there been turnover for other reasons?

Thanks, again, for all of your help. I really appreciate it.

All the best,
Beryl
