At its meeting Monday night, the Albuquerque City Council voted 7-1 to fund a study to explore options for consolidating city and county emergency service agencies. Every option is on the table, including fully integrating the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office and the Albuquerque Police Department. The complications that presents are many. For example, APD is under a Department of Justice consent decree. Would the sheriff's office be willing to join forces under that? Answering those sorts of questions is what the study aims to do.
