BRATTLEBORO â The Community Safety Review Committee is starting to see the shape of recommendations being developed by facilitators to make the town feel more safe.
âWeâre at a critical point in our process,â Emily Megas-Russell, one of the two facilitators hired by the town for the project that will result in a report due at the end of the month, said at the committee meeting held remotely Monday.
Responses from Town Manager Peter Elwell on questions posed at the last meeting were read to the committee on Monday. He said neither the Brattleboro Police Department nor the rest of town government plays any role in the school resource officer position â it is staffed by the Windham County Sheriffâs Office and overseen by the Windham Southeast School District, with no funding from the municipal budget.
