Group shelves Palmer police advisory board proposal amid threats, accuses mayor of lying ‘to create outrage’ Share on Facebook Print article PALMER Supporters on Tuesday chose to withdraw a police advisory board proposal rather than present it before an unfavorable crowd at a Palmer City Council meeting, citing animosity they blamed in part on the mayor. The draft proposal, which had yet to be publicly discussed, was to create a nine-member board appointed by the mayor and approved by the city council. A number of Alaska cities, including Anchorage, have similar boards, which generally provide civilian oversight for public safety agencies and make recommendations to elected officials who set policy.
