Amherst public safety group’s work will continue in fall >Published: 7/8/2021 1:23:09 PM
AMHERST An advisory group to the town manager that previously made recommendations for public safety alternatives in Amherst, and next anticipates proposing methods of providing new oversight for town police, will be able to continue its work into the autumn.
Town Manager Paul Bockelman said Tuesday that he has extended the Community Safety Working Group until Nov. 1, giving the panel an additional two months to complete its tasks, following appeals from the community and a recommendation from the Town Council.
The group, led by co-chairwomen Brianna Owen and Ellisha Walker, has excelled at its job, Bockelman said, and is making proposals that will make public safety, and Amherst town government, work better for all residents.
