Police Consultant Report Update
Town Managment’s prior “edits” of Independent Reports has proven a disaster over the past year… let’s avoid the results that occurred in 2018…
With a vote of 3-2 (a thank you to Commissioners Dale Cooke and Gary Persinger), the Commissioners were granted the opportunity to read a version of the Police Consultant Report. The two Commissioners in the minority took issue with taking the report home in order to read it. We should always encourage the transparency of information, particularly as it relates to those who have oversight in the town. It’s about making informed policy decisions based on accurate and timely information. What do you think? Shouldn’t Commissioners be able to read reports from Independent Consultants? Still unanswered is why the Town Manager needed to have the report for the prior 3 weeks not allowing the Commissioners to properly prepare for the meeting and not knowing what changes were made.
