The council did not ask the mayor to resign but rather listed a number of policy goals.

Louisville, Kentucky's city council Thursday night approved a “no confidence” resolution against Mayor Greg Fischer, citing his handling of the death of Breonna Taylor and the unrest that followed.

Among the list of recommendations were calls to increase affordable housing, limit development in at-risk neighborhoods unless the development is black-owned and affordable, and complete a top-to-bottom review of the police department by the end of the year. No drugs or money were recovered during the raid, according to the search warrant inventory document obtained by NBC News.

Story continuesThe city of Louisville settled a wrongful death suit filed by Taylor’s family for $12 million on Tuesday, which did not require the city to admit any wrongdoing.
