About the Event

The  Community and Police Collaboration Committee has been meeting since  early fall to and is very interested in having more feedback from the  Village residents. The charge of this committee has been to look at the  Village of Westfield Police Department to address the particular needs  of our community and promote community engagement to foster trust,  fairness, and legitimacy, and address any racial bias and  disproportionate policing of neighborhoods.

State guidelines call for this collaborative process to: -    Review the needs of the community served by its police agency -    Evaluate the department's current policies and practices -    Establish policies that allow police to effectively and safely perform their duties -    Involve the entire community in the discussion -    Develop policy recommendations resulting from this review -    Offer a plan for public comment -    Present the plan to the local legislative body to ratify or adopt it.

Please  join the committee on Facebook Live on February 23rd at 6:30pm or in  person on February 25th at 6:30pm at Eason Hall (masks and social  distancing will be required) to see the plan and give your feedback.
