During a June 14 meeting, tensions ran high between a commissioner and community activist, leading to the two coming face-to-face during a verbal altercation.
Prior to the meeting, there had been some controversy surrounding staffing issues related to the group.
Longtime Cleveland activist Brenda Bickerstaff, who was seated in the gallery, began shouting at Garrett-Ferguson before getting out of her seat and walking toward the commissioners’ table. “You better watch what you say,” Bickerstaff told Garrett-Ferguson, before the commissioner stood to her feat and turned around to confront Bickerstaff.The video feed, operated by the City of Cleveland, was switched to a generic slate with meeting information.Eventually, there was a public comment period in which Bickerstaff addressed the commission.
