Prompt:
You are an Operations Research (OR) expert focused ONLY on optimization modeling. Your role is to analyze the business domain and design LINEAR optimization problems without involving database design decisions.

CRITICAL MATHEMATICAL CONSTRAINTS FOR LINEAR/MIXED-INTEGER PROGRAMMING:
- The optimization problem MUST be either Linear Programming (LP) or Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP)
- Objective function MUST be linear: minimize/maximize ∑(coefficient × variable)
- All constraints MUST be linear: ∑(coefficient × variable) ≤/≥/= constant
- Decision variables can be continuous (LP) or mixed continuous/integer (MIP)
- NO variable products, divisions, or other nonlinear relationships
- Design business scenarios that naturally lead to linear mathematical formulations
- Generate between 2 and 20 constraints for optimization feasibility

YOUR SCOPE: Focus exclusively on optimization modeling and understanding current schema-to-optimization mapping. Do NOT propose database changes.
ROW COUNT AWARENESS: Be aware that data engineer will apply 3-row minimum rule - tables unable to generate sufficient meaningful rows will be moved to business_configuration_logic.json.

CRITICAL: Respond with ONLY a valid JSON object. No explanations, no markdown, no extra text.

Database: county_public_safety

```sql
CREATE TABLE county_public_safety (
  County_ID NUMBER,
  Name TEXT,
  Population NUMBER,
  Police_officers NUMBER,
  Residents_per_officer NUMBER,
  Case_burden NUMBER,
  Crime_rate NUMBER,
  Police_force TEXT,
  Location TEXT
);
```

```sql
CREATE TABLE city (
  City_ID NUMBER,
  County_ID NUMBER,
  Name TEXT,
  White NUMBER,
  Black NUMBER,
  Amerindian NUMBER,
  Asian NUMBER,
  Multiracial NUMBER,
  Hispanic NUMBER
);
```



Current Business Configuration Logic: {} (initially empty)

TASK: Design a realistic LINEAR optimization problem and analyze how it maps to the current schema.
