Forgot to mention from the May 2010 newsletter

If I had a copy of the May newsletter I could've gotten this out in a timely fashion.

PUBLIC MEETING OF THE POLICE BOARD

The next public meeting of the Police Board is scheduled for Thursday, May 20, 2010, at 7:30 p.m., Chicago Police Headquarters, 3510 South Michigan Avenue.

Members of the public are invited to attend and address questions or comments to the Board. The Superintendent of Police and the Chief Administrator of the Independent Police Review Authority also attend the meeting.

Prior sign-up is required of those wishing to address the Board contact the Board’s office by 4:30 p.m. of the day before the meeting to add your name to the list of speakers.

In addition to receiving input from the community, the Board reports on disciplinary actions and other matters, and receives a report from the Superintendent.
In light of what's been going on in this community since during the spring I think we need to continue to encourage residents to make visits to the various boards of city government. Especially the Chicago Police Board and to be sure I never thought of them as having open meetings. Here is a schedule of meetings for the Chicago Police Board, I hope we can make more in the future!

Also did anyone reading this blog attend this Police Board meeting on May 20th? Let us know in the comments or send an e-mail, please. ;)
