On Thursday, September 27, 2018, Chief Manley and City Manager Spencer Cronk laid out goals and changes in the Austin Police Department. They provided the new mission and vision statement and new branding "One Austin, Safer Together." Chief Manley talked about the importance of Community Policing and what that entails — building positive relationships one contact at a time. APD looks forward to using these hashtags on social media: #SaferTogether and #CommunityPolicing.
