At least two members of the Wichita City Council are sounding the alarm, saying that there’s a public safety crisis. With recent violent crimes and a possible officer shortfall on the way, some are saying that we need to spend money now. “It’s pretty clear what’s happening in Wichita right now, and we have a public emergency,” said Wichita City Councilmember Bryan Frye on Monday. Frye, who is running for mayor right now, says the city needs to take a hard look at spending some of the City of Wichita’s projected $12.6 million surplus for the next budget cycle on hiring and retaining cops.
